New York, NY, Jan. 11, 2000 - Y2K looks to be a big year for Michael Douglas. Having just announced his engagement to Catherine Zeta-Jones (via the Internet, no less -- we hope someone e-mailed Catherine the good news), Douglas is poised to tie the knot with the beautiful Welsh star this year. Also in 2000 - next month in fact -- Douglas will be seen in Paramount's "Wonder Boys," about a majorly blocked writer. While initial reports described Douglas' character as "overweight" and "pot-smoking," Those Who Have Read the script say the role has a lot more dignity than that. And then there's the "baby." Douglas' production company Further Films has birthed its very first release, "One Night at McCool's," starring none other than Daddy. (Look for the bouncing black comedy in the fall.) And parenting will be very much on Douglas' mind when he begins pre-production late
Michael Jackson's 30th-anniversary tribute acts announced
HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 6, 2000 -- Cold feet seems to be Hollywood's fall season ailment. Otherwise known as last-minute tweaking, the malady has hit the Nicole Kidman film "Moulin Rouge" as well as the new NBC comedy starring "Seinfeld" favorite Michael Richards. Daily Variety reports that the release date of "Moulin Rouge," a musical from director Baz Luhrmann ("William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet") and costarring Ewan McGregor, has been moved from late 2000 to summer 2001. The film, set in 19th century Paris, reportedly features scorching song-and-dance routines from flame-haired star Kidman, who plays a courtesan. We'll have to wait a little longer to see if Kidman and company can resurrect the long-afflicted musical genre. On the TV front, the much-anticipated "Michael Richards Show" has been doing its own two-step. What the producers shot as the second epis

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 18, 2000 -- Pop singer George Michael said today that he has purchased the Steinway piano used by John Lennon to compose "Imagine" for $2.1 million. "We can confirm that George Michael has bid successfully for John Lennon's piano," a spokeswoman for Michael told Reuters. "He decided to do this because the piano was a part of music history and because he wanted it to remain in Britain." The upright, walnut piano, which Lennon purchased in 1970 for some 1,000 pounds, went on the auction block late Tuesday in a trans-Atlantic auction. It has been housed at the Beatles Story Museum in Liverpool, England, since February. 98 DEGREES' DREW SAYS 'I DO': The boy band 98 Degrees, whose hits include "I Do (Cherish You)" and "Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche)," saw one of its own say "I do" over the weekend.

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 16, 2000 -- Who'd have guessed that so many people would want to play an ape? But it's true. After Tim Roth and Helena Bonham Carter, the latest actor to join the remake of "The Planet of the Apes" as a simian is "The Green Mile" man, Michael Clarke Duncan, The Associated Press says. Specifically, Duncan is going to play a silverback gorilla. Helmed by Tim Burton, the much-anticipated remake also stars Mark Wahlberg, who's got the role of the rare humanoid crashing the planet. BACK TO 'BASIC': We know a good cast when we see one: Catherine Keener ("Being John Malkovich) and Benicio Del Toro ("The Way of the Gun") might both star in "Basic," Daily Variety says. The drama concerns a DEA agent who's investigating the disappearance of an army instructor and several of his cadets. 'HOUSE' CALL: Variety also reports that Kristin Scott Thomas of
HOLLYWOOD, June 26, 2000 -- Ever wonder what Michael Jackson does these days? Apparently so does the guy's longtime promoter. Jackson has been hit with a $21.2 million lawsuit by the aforementioned longtime promoter (one Marcel Avram of Germany) for reputedly backing out of a pair of planned Y2K Eve's shows in Hawaii and Australia. No comment from the singer's camp. One thing's for sure, though. Getting hauled into court by Avram is not a new experience for the singer: He filed a $20 million lawsuit against Jackson in 1993 for the never-was "Dangerous" tour.
Is there anything he can't do?
