Blind Item!

Don't worry, it's not all going to be about hurrican Ike. This is from Lainey:

Star Treatment
How does he roll?

Private plane on someone else’s dime with specific requests about the type of aircraft…like it’s not enough to bypass commercial flying, you need to fly in a particular model. But that’s just the beginning.

He can only travel in matching (like MATCHING!) SUVs with police escort. Three of them. One left empty. And then a sedan. Why the sedan? Because his lower level staff are not allowed to ride in SUVs. They are beneath SUVs. His staff must also stay in a hotel separate from his.

Then there’s eye contact. No eye contact under any circumstances. If his driver happens to have to idle for more than 15 seconds with him in the car – say they’re packing up gear, or waiting for a delivery – the driver must exit the vehicle until the fleet is ready to move.

Speaking to him of course is out of the question. Speaking in his vicinity is even worse. The only voice he wants to hear is his own. You can talk…but only when he gives you permission. There’s actually a hand signal for that. It comes from his manager.

Hotel staff learn this lesson quickly. Imagine asking someone if he wants fresh towels and have him stare back at you, behind sunglasses, not answering, the silence filling up the room like a flood, how small that person must feel, that person who works and busts her ass for minimum wage, not even to be acknowledged, to feel the message from a millionaire that she is not worth engaging? Not even a nod?

If he walks past you in the hall, you must turn your back. If you don’t turn your back he’ll stop walking. His team will stand in a wall around him for fear that you might breathe on him. Worse still, they will harass you. They will intimidate you. They will treat you like a criminal and report you to make sure you are punished.

All of this and more, communicated without shame, without embarrassment, executed as though it’s the most natural way to behave … these are His Rules.

Angelina kicks Tiny Tom out of a job

Yay! Kick him in the balls, too, Angie! From Foxnews:

Is Angelina Jolie stealing Tom Cruise's part?

Once expected to star Cruise, Columbia Pictures' espionage thriller "Edwin A. Salt" will be redrafted and renamed as a star vehicle for Jolie, Variety reports.

Jolie is close to a deal to play the title character, a CIA officer who's accused by a defector of being a Russian sleeper spy and must elude capture long enough to establish her innocence, according to the Hollywood trade publication.

Cruise had long flirted with the project, but that ended recently, Variety says. Jolie took a liking to it, prompting the studio's decision to rewrite it.

FOXNews.com's FOX411 column reported last month that Cruise was not going to star in "Edwin A. Salt" because he asked for too much money.

Oh HELL no!!!

Top Gun 2 is in the works? from digital spy:

A sequel to Tom Cruise's classic action film Top Gun has been written, say reports.

According to The Sun, Cruise has been approached about reviving his role as fighter-pilot Maverick.

"The idea is Maverick is at the Top Gun school as an instructor - and this time it is he who has to deal with a cocky new female pilot," said a source.

Movie bosses were apparently inspired by the success of recent Indiana Jones and Rocky sequels.
