You may be surprised to learn how many of the rich and famous actually started out folding T-shirts at the Gap, scrubbing floors or flipping burgers before they made it big.

While the ladies tend to get all the attention when it comes to fashion at the Oscars – from dramatic necklines and voluminous skirts to intricate appliques and bold colors – many actors like to rock attention-grabbing suits with just as much personality as their female counterparts’ gowns.

A few key members of the SNL cast and crew must love “The Californians” because the much-derided sketch was brought back to life for the show’s star-studded 40th anniversary special. For those of us who have always enjoyed this bizarre sketch (and there are about three of us), it’s a welcome return and we will greedily drink up the angry tears of everyone else.

‘American Sniper’ had a record-shattering weekend at the box office, grossing an astounding $105 million from Friday to Monday. It’s already the second biggest earner of Clint Eastwood’s entire career after ‘Gran Torino,’ and with six Academy Award nominations (and great word-of-mouth) behind it, it’s posed to become his biggest hit ever.

I wonder if Chris Kyle was a Clint Eastwood fan. ‘American Sniper’’s marketing materials describe Kyle as “the most lethal sniper in U.S. history,” but before his military career, Kyle was a cowboy. He wore a hat and boots, and even carried a six-shooter. Eventually, he gave up the cowboy life and decided to serve his country. He was a gifted marksman and trained to be a Navy SEAL. But even as a soldier, Kyle never lost that cowboy swagger—or that sense that someone has to venture out into the frontier and protect the American way of life. That’s what Kyle learned from his father—who raised him to be a “sheepdog,” a watchful protector in a world of sheep and wolves—and from watching violent Westerns like the ones that made Eastwood a major Hollywood star.

Like many of us, 'Tonight Show' host Jimmy Fallon appears to believe that Hollywood superstar Bradley Cooper can do anything -- and, based on his impressive resume of stage and screen roles and accolades, the guy can't be too off the mark. But there is one that Cooper isn't so great at: music. It's sort of surprising, really, and even the overly solicitous Fallon was a little dumbstruck when Cooper admitted that his musical talents are minimal on last night's show.

In between 'Silver Linings Playbook' and 'American Hustle,' Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper filmed another movie, this time for Danish Oscar-winning director Susanne Bier. After the 18-month-long editing process, the first 'Serena' trailer has arrived to give us our first look at the film.

Some people daydream about what it’d be like to spend their lives with a celebrity, and other people make it happen… sort of.

Last night, as I was watching the Oscars, I tried, like about 2.1 million people to retweet the selfie Ellen Degeneres took during the show. I kept getting an error message that there was something wrong with Twitter. I had just bought a new phone so I thought it was because I didn't know how to work it, but it was actually ELLEN'S fault: so many people tried to retweet the picture that twitter's

At long last, the first 'Guardians of the Galaxy' trailer is online, leaving behind Marvel's Earth- and Asgard-bound heroes in favor of an intergalactic band of misfits. We've already seen a few preview bits from the film through photos and 15 seconds of footage, but here's our first full look at Marvel's venture into space.

Every 'The Hangover 3' trailer and TV spot so far has sold chaos and only chaos, so it's refreshing that the new (and possibly final) trailer for the trilogy capper lets us know what the movie is actually about. Unlike 'The Hangover Part II,' this is no carbon copy remake of the first film -- it couldn't look more different than what we've seen before.

'Silver Linings Playbook' hottie Bradley Cooper has been failing in the love department lately, most recently splitting with actress Zoe Saldana -- and now being dumped by a model for fondling her feet too much. Allegedly, of course.
