Laliberte is set to become Canada's first space tourist when he travels on a Russian Soyuz spacecraft in September.

The Quebec billionaire will become the seventh private citizen to visit the orbiting space lab since April 2001.

For his return to earth Lali-berte promises 400 Soyuz somersaults before landing on the forehead of a tiny Chinese acrobat.

* According to Forbes, Angelina

Jolie has dethroned Oprah Winfrey as the poorly named world's most powerful celebrity.

We hope Forbes does a better job picking stocks.

Angelina may be hotter than Oprah, she may have a hotter boyfriend, she may have more kids and she may have been on more cheesy magazine covers.

But power? Angelina earned $27 million last year. Oprah earned $275 million. Oprah has a daily TV show, a radio channel, a magazine, a stake in Dr. Phil and Rachael Ray, a TV/movies/theater production company and the ability to sell a million books with a mention.

When it comes to "Power," she and Angelina are in completely different leagues.

The rest of the Top 10: Madonna, Beyonce, Tiger Woods, Bruce Springsteen, Steven Spielberg (whatever happened to the Jews having all the media power?), Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt and Kobe Bryant.

And Kobe sits 39 spots ahead of . . . President Obama, at No. 49.

When Angelina gets her hands on some nukes, call us. *
