It’s that time of again, when we all (or most of us) read articles like this and then think of our bank accounts and cry ourselves to sleep, because Forbes have just released Hollywood’s Top-Earning Actresses.

If you believe the National Enquirer, then I might have some swampland in Florida to sell you.
According to the tabloid, Angelina Jolie has been having some pretty hot phone sex with her ex-husband, Billy Bob Thornton. It got so bad that even Brad walked in on her!! Oh the humanity!
Sources revealed that she’s sex-talking her ex to get back at Brad for all of the Jennifer Aniston drama.
Angie has been getting naked in the bathtub, talking dirty to Billy Bob, while sipping on a glass of wine.
Brad happened to walk in on her steamy chat and was none too pleased.
A source said, “That was the last straw for Brad. And worse still, when he asked Angie to hang up because he needed to talk to her about something important regarding one of their kids, she completely ignored him and kept on talking to Billy Bob for another half hour. Brad was ticked!”
A snitch (?) insists that the two “talk for hour after hour about the old days, turning each other on with the sizzling reminders of the great se life they had together, how much she misses him - and how bored she is with Brad’s mind games.”
While filming Quentin Tarantino’s movie about World War II, Inglourious Basterds, superdad Brad Pitt offered up some unconventional hygiene tips for his sometimes smelly costars.
Pitt’s costar and pal Eli Roth stated at Saturday’s Spike TV Guys Choice 2009 in Los Angeles,
“He shared that when you’re sweating and don’t have time to take a shower, you just take a baby wipe and rub it under your armpits.
After a scene, Brad had to get next to me for a close-up shot, and he said, ‘Damn, you’re ripe. I said, ‘I didn’t have time to shower.’ He said, ‘Baby wipes, man, baby wipes.’ “
When it came to Pitt’s pits, Roth said the leading man explained,
“I got six kids. All you’ve got to do is just take them, a couple quick wipes under the pits. Man, I’m getting [peed] on all day. I don’t have time to take a shower.”
Clearly, I couldn’t make this story up — it’s just too believable.
Veteran reporter Ann Curry has anchored NBC’s ‘Dateline’ and ‘Nightly News,’ but her professionalism is no match for the magnetic power of Brad Pitt. In a ‘Today’ show interview, Curry could barely keep her hands to herself, going so far as to grab the actor’s chin.
The two spoke at the Cannes Film Festival where Pitt is promoting his latest film, ‘Inglourious Basterds,’ in a segment that aired during Wednesday’s ‘Today’ show. Curry took a momentary break from pawing the star to discuss how lucky she is to stand in such close proximity to his internationally appreciated hotness.
“Women who watch the ‘Today’ show are really envious of me right now because I get to stand here in Cannes talking to you,” Curry told Pitt, and asked how he would respond to his female fans.
