Hasn't Gillian Anderson seen "Alien"? Getting pregnant while promoting a movie about extraterrestrial life... that takes guts. The actress even walked the red carpet for "X-Files: I Want To Believe" with long-time TV costar David Duchovny.
Guess everyone's into aliens these days: The Roswell UFO Festival reported a 25 percent jump in attendance this year, while local hotels were sold out and the city moved $15,000 of merchandise over 4 days. In these recessionary times, are we counting on visitors from the sky to save us?

Now that Stars Wars has been released you may be wondering what you have to anticipate next. We hope not. But nevertheless, don't pack up the light sabers and hoods just yet...
July 1-4th marks a bigger freakfest then SW we would venture to guess: The Roswell 2005 UFO Festival in Roswell, NM, where it all started. Festival highlights include live concerts by the "Alien Oldies", lectures with titles like "They Came While You Slept", and workshops such as "Bring Your Evidence to Light." Not to mention plays, telescope viewings and a parade.
UFO enthusiasts are not exactly hedge fund managers, so no worries on prices here. It is an earthly $15 per concert, workshops are $10 for singles or $15 for couples and planetarium entry is a mere $3.50. Events are taking place each day from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., although we're sure this crowd will be up all night--staring into the cornfields or the desert.
