jennifer aniston's marley and me is set to top the christmas weekend box office, with ex-husband brad pitt's coming in second. the dog themed rom-com has brought in close to fifteen million dollars as compared to bejamin button's 12ish. while aniston's film is shorter and played on more screens, i still think she would have beaten pitt - just the theme of the movie is more family friendly. pitt's movie runs almost 3 hours long, which is about double the regular rate for movies today. how they turned a short story into a 3 hour long movie is beyond me. the big question here is which film will be bigger at the box office overall. my bet is still on marley. family films always stay around longer and, while the film probably won't be nominated or win any awards, artsy pieces tend not to have staying power at the box office.
love woes
giselle bundchen, the former victoria's secret model, and football beau tom brady are now engaged. brady popped the question on christmas eve, on his private jet with bundchen's family present. the couple got together right after brady's former flame bridget moynahan announced she was pregnant with the couple's son. no word on whether or not the over-paid model is with child, but she no doubt soon will be. maybe tom can leave her, too, and just go around the states getting engaged to and knocking up famous women?
kate walsh, star of grey's anatomy spin off private practice, has countersued for divorce from her tv exec hubby, who filed right before thanksgiving. the latest rumor swirling the surprise split is that walsh's soon to be ex is leaving her for (wait for it)...a man, his ex college roomie - an openly gay lawyer. rumors like these have been surrounding the couple since their engagement. it will be interesting to see what all happens in this divorce; the celeb tabs are sure to follow it closely.
