Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz were up all night Friday, but not for a hot Hollywood party, instead they spent the night in a Bridgewater, MA field. The pair were shooting scenes for Wichita, aka "The Untitled Wichita Project", their new movie which has been filming around Boston for a few weeks. In one scene shot Friday night, just off of Curve Street, a 747 "crashed and exploded" in a a large field. Though it looked and sounded like a real crash, no planes (or humans) were actually injured in the shoot. The plane arrived to the field on Friday already in pieces and the explosion was nothing more than a little Hollywood magic.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the movie focuses on "a lonely woman (Diaz) whose seemingly harmless blind date suddenly turns her life upside-down when a superspy (Cruise) takes her on a violent worldwide journey to protect a powerful battery that holds the key to an infinite power source." So how does this plane crash fit into the this "worldwide journey"? ]]> cmb 2009-09-28T11:30:53-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2009/1/7/234838/9492

Into every trip, a little rain must fall. There's nothing to do but grin and bare it, whether you are a surprisingly placid Paris Hilton in line at Sydney's Kingsford Smith International Airport or Neil Patrick Harris spreading good cheer at LAX. Sure, you could make a Kate Moss stankface when you get wanded at security, but what good will that do?

Cameron Diaz and "Grey's Anatomy"'s T.R. Knight were loaded down with bags, but Jessica Simpson and her pet football player Tony Romo looked lighter than air--even though his team, the one she supposedly jinxed, is out of the playoffs.

This weekend's major movie release "What Happens In Vegas" promises to kill off the entire tourism trade to Nevada's largest city. Once people get the idea, however malformed, that an innocuous trip to Vegas could get you hitched to Ashton Kutcher without possibility of parole, no one will ever want to visit Sin City again!

Actually, even a movie this execrable probably can't keep people from going to Vegas. So, have fun, go mad and meet a cutie at one of these hot spots:

Hofbrauhaus :: It wouldn't occur to us to try to pick up hot guys at a German/Bavarian restaurant--sauerkraut breath is a killer!--but maybe if they're German and nude... 4510 Paradise Rd.

Ghost Bar :: HotelChatter has spotted Paris and Tara Reid at this rooftop club at the Palms, but you can meet regular people (and Canadians) there too. 4321 W. Flamingo Rd.

Krave :: Its reputation as an LGBT hot spot precedes it, but if you like drag karaoke, relatively cheap covers ($10 in Vegas is like 10 cents anywhere else) and "gorgeous" girls with pink hair, you'll enjoy it too. 3663 S. Las Vegas Blvd.

While many stars were gearing up for the Movies Rock event in Hollywood last night, Cameron Diaz spent her Sunday in the usually star-barren* city of Washington, DC, paying tribute to director Martin Scorsese at this year's Kennedy Center Honors. The director, who worked with Diaz on 2002's "Gangs of New York," heard tributes from her and frequent Scorsese player Robert DeNiro.

Also honored at the Kennedy Center (and allowed to pose with President Bush) were Steve Martin, Diana Ross, pianist Leon Fleisher and Brian Wilson. But only lucky Scorsese can now hang his rainbow-ribboned medal on his Oscar for last year's "The Departed."

*unless you consider Rahm Emanuel or James Sensenbrenner stars... which we not-so-secretly do.

Well, okay, Cameron Diaz probably didn't drive herself to the set of her new movie "The Box" outside Boston, Massachusetts. But is there ever a bad time to use the fake Boston accent, especially when the actress got some chowdah and oystahs at the Union Oyster House? She also indulged in fish and chips there, skipping the tourist trap "Cheers" restaurant.

Diaz is shooting "The Box," directed by "Donnie Darko" and "Southland Tales" auteur Richard Kelly. The film, which also stars James Marsden, is about a couple who finds itself no longer able to speak the King's English. Oh, we kid! Diaz and Marsden find a mysterious, possibly wish-granting box in their doorstep--hopefully not the kind Naomi Watts found in "Mulholland Drive."

Cameron Diaz was caught making an unwitting faux pas while being filmed for MTV Canada abroad this week. Her crime? Wearing a messenger bag printed with Maoist slogans -- in Peru, a country where Communist terrorist group the the Shining Path has been responsible for some 70,000 deaths and disappearances since the 1980s.

Diaz wrote in a statement to the press, "It was certainly never my intention to reopen what I now know is a painful wound in this country's history." The incident is definitely making us look at our travel wardrobe with new eyes.

Cameron Diaz just landed at the award winning Incheon International Airport to promote Shrek the Third.

This fairly new airport is situated on Yeongjong Island, 40 kilometers to the west of Seoul, and is, like most airports constantly expanding. If you land or have a layover at ICN you can look forward to shopping at the Shinsegae Department store, which avails lazy travelers the opportunity to procure last Kimchi gifts for those back home. Furthermore, the airport even sports a dental clinic, just in case you need a teeth whitening, or a root canal.

By 2010 there should be a reasonable public transport link from the Airport to Seoul, in the form of The Incheon International Airport Railroad. Unfortunately today, you will have to use the subway at Incheon station, public buses, or a taxi to get yourself to Seoul from the airport.
