...believe a "Celebrity Survivor" when I actually see the emaciated husk of George Clooney licking rice dregs out of a coconut shell. For one thing, while I and the rest of civilization would absolutely watch, it would also effectively be the end of the series. You could never go back to real people once you've gone the "Battle of the Network Stars" route. What's more, given real stars' tight schedules and accustomedness to pampering, the danger is CBS would either have to water down the competition into a bogus vacation, or turn it into a "Hollywood Squares" full...

...after Elvis recorded Heartbreak Hotel, nearly everybody under 70 has some emotional attachment to electrified music with a beat. As a consequence, pop music is no longer mostly a way that one generation defines itself against its elders. The baby boomers' own parents grew up with Frank Sinatra, Rosemary Clooney and Nat "King" Cole. Rock was such an unmistakable break with that creamy tradition that teenagers of the 1960s and '70s understood it right away as music to fight Mom and Dad to, especially since their parents usually hated the stuff. Now kids have to accept that most of their...

Cruise renounced Roman...

...Jennifer Lopez is that she'll try anything--and she usually makes it look good. In movies, for instance, she has played a dead Tex-Mex singer (Selena), been hugged by a big snake (Anaconda), come at Sean Penn like a famished scorpion (U-Turn), swapped repartee with George Clooney in a locked car trunk (Out of Sight) and gone into a trance to nab a serial killer (The Cell...

...steel and glass panels, and I notice some cracks in the panels and try not to think about the safety record of cars suspended from steel cables in Third World countries. The cable car sways a bit in the breeze and I suddenly have a brief vision of George Clooney in "A Perfect Storm" being buffeted by winds, but since that wasn't a very good movie I try hard to think of George Clooney in "Out of Sight" and then I think why in the world am I thinking of George Clooney when I could be thinking of Jennifer...
