Introducing Matt Times Four

Check out Matt Lauer's interview with Tom Cruise on the Today Show. It's starting to get scary with this guy.

I can't believe this is just promotion for the movie. I mean, if it does well, he'll still be stuck with the baggage. Then again, maybe Nicole should go a little nuts, because I hear Bewitched is lame.

Fast forward to 7 minutes in...that's when it gets good.

For some reason I feel the need to keep up with all things TomKat:

Tom Cruise vs. Matt Lauer - Who do the housewives root for when their two favorite heart throbs go toe to toe on the Today Show? Read the transcript of the antagonistic Cruise talking down to the helpless Lauer about Ritalin.

16 Days in April - that's how many days Katie Holmes was missing before turning up as Tom's zombie bride-to-be. Her family was not in contact with her and since her return, close friends have been banished from her life.

Scarlett's Escape - Before Katie was captured, Scarlett Johannson seemed to have become a target when she originally signed on to co-star in Mission Impossible III. Tom creeped her out so much with his constant evangelizing about Scientology and an ominous invite to a dinner at the Scientology Center that she dropped out of the film, escaping with her life and career intact.

More to come I'm sure...

An early rumor's out on the new Joker. Any guesses? Here's a hint

All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz and I'm fine.

So what does our resident movie critic think of this choice?

I mentioned this a couple days ago. Next week Aquaman and I will kick off a new series of interviews for YesBut, starting with a former member of the Howard Stern Show - KC Armstrong. Now, if you're not a Stern fan, you probably have no idea who this guy is, so here's a description pulled right from the enclyclopedia site - Wikipedia.

Kyle Casey Armstrong was an associate producer and sometimes on-air personality on The Howard Stern Show. In 2004, Armstrong took personal leave from the show for an undisclosed reason. According to on-air comments made by Stern on April 22, 2005, Armstrong is now working in California trying to start a career in acting.

Armstrong was fired from the Howard Stern Show in mid 2004, when it was discovered he made up a story on air about winning and then losing $300,000 on the site goldenpalace.com as a way to promote the gambling site on air.

Little harsh for an encyclopedia entry, don't you think? And that last part about Golden Palace (another frequent subject around here)has actually never been confirmed. Read our exclusive interview by clicking here
