Aniston and Cox: Best Friends for real!

Former Friends star Jennifer Aniston is reportedly planning to buy a $10 million pad next to pal and co-star Courtney Cox.

 

According to sources, Aniston, who is set to divorce Brad Pitt after their split in January this year, wants Cox to help her deal with the situation.

 

'Jen is still devastated by what she has gone through. Her friendship with Courteney is the one thing that has kept her sane. They have always been close, but recently Courteney has taken charge of her life -- for which Jen will be eternally grateful,'  Fox News quoted a pal as saying to Grazia magazine.

Star Wars coming to a television screen near you!

 

George Lucas presented a goody bag to his fans by announcing that besides the final film, Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith, two Star Wars television projects are lined up for the next year.

 

Speaking at a fan meet for the first time in 18 years, Lucas said the first would be an action-packed TV series inspired by the original, while the second would be a 3D animated television series named Clone Wars.

 

'When we first did Star Wars, we made an effort to push it at science-fiction conventions and make everyone aware that we 

were making this space opera. It was through that effort of appealing to fans first that allowed the film to be a huge  success,'  Fox News quoted Lucas as saying.

 

Elaborating on the content of the shows, he said  the first series would be set up in the time between Revenge Of The Sith and the original Star Wars film, while the second one will be based on the battle led by Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi and other Jedi knights against the Army of the Republic at the end of Episode II: Attack Of The Clones.

 

Cindy Crawford hated her mole!

 

Supermodel Cindy Crawford has confessed that she hated her trademark mole when she was growing up, and even thought of having it removed.

 

Cindy revealed that she was very self-conscious of the mole above her lip as she thought that it would mar her prospects of becoming a model.

 

'When I was a kid, I didn't like my mole, because you don't like anything that makes you different from the other kids, and my sisters used to tease me,' she was quoted by Femalefirst.co.uk as saying.

 

'When I first visited a modelling agency, they said I should have it removed. My mother said, 'OK, if that's what you want, but you might have a scar if you do,' which was subtle psychology.

 

'I didn't do anything about it, and my mole has since become a trademark,' she added.

 

George Clooney goes on a golf and booze odyssey!

 

George Clooney is all set to go on a golfing and drinking session with six close friends. The gang, which calls itself 'The Boys', will travel to golf ranges around the country in a rented bus which will be stacked with alcohol as part of their male-bonding session.

 

Femalefirst.co.uk quoted a source as saying, 'They're going to play one course after another. They're bringing their woods and their irons -- and a lot of ice.'

 

Ten years ago the gang, which includes Broadway actor Richard Kind, had gone  for a similar trip.

 

'It's a kind of sacred beer-fuelled walkabout. None of us are good golfers. This is a time for The Boys to be together and forget about their jobs; a time to hang out,' Clooney said.

 

The eventual destination is not known, but George thinks they'll end up in Las Vegas. 'We always end in Vegas -- we never start there because you have to wash your liver out afterwards,' he added.
