Sideshow: Services for Farrah Fawcett
Trio to tread the boards
In an extraordinary boon to Drama, three film and TV actors have answered the call of The Stage.
Jude Law, 36, is adding to his impressive film resume, which includes The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, Sleuth, and All the King's Men, with a turn as the Melancholy Dane in a Broadway production of that frothy little English play, Hamlet, at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York. Previews begin Sept. 12 and the play will open Oct. 6.
Bourne trilogy actress Julia Stiles, 28, will make her Broadway debut in David Mamet's controversial take on sexual harassment, Oleanna, opposite Bill Pullman. The play is currently on view in Lalaland and will open in New York Oct. 11 at the Golden Theater.
Last, but not least, T.R. Knight, who really did leave Grey's Anatomy, will star in a Broadway revival of the Tony Award-winning farce, Lend Me a Tenor . . . to be directed by Stanley Tucci. No word on an opening date.
Vibe to join the ether
Vibe, the urban music magazine founded in '93 by Quincy Jones, has gone out of business.
"On behalf [of] the . . . staff (the best in this business), it is with great sadness, and with heads held high, that we leave the building today," editor-in-chief Danyel Smith said in a statement released to AllHipHop.com.
"We were assigning and editing a Michael Jackson tribute issue when we got the news. . . . It's a sad day for music, for hip-hop in particular, and for . . . millions of readers."
A $108 million raise for Cowell?
Simon "Darth Vader" Cowell finally may be able to afford his very own Death Star.
Brit paper The Guardian reports that American Idol is so desperate to keep Simon on the show that Fox has offered to pay him "three or four" times his current salary. Simon, who last year reportedly earned $36 mil, is up for a new contract in May.
Is that raise even possible? Newsday says there's no way Fox could afford that much cash (especially for someone who serves the Dark Side).
No comment from Fox.
Anna's Vegas smackdown
Anna Kournikova, 28, whose World Team Tennis troupe, the St. Louis Aces, will face off against the Philadelphia Freedoms on Monday in King of Prussia, suffered cuts and bruises to her neck after being embroiled in an apparent smackdown at Lavo Nightclub in Vegas on Saturday.
The New York Post says Anna took exception with some random, unidentified woman who threw a drink on her. A shoving match ensued.
An anon source tells People mag that the combatants had to be separated by security guards. "Anna looked really shaken up," the source said.
Zsa Zsa Gabor back home
Zsa Zsa Gabor's hubby, Prince Frederick von Anhalt, has announced that the 92-year-old former Miss Hungary has returned to her Beverly Hills home after being hospitalized for six days after complaining of flulike symptoms. No other details available.
