Sideshow: Semper fi! He gets his date

Could

Sgt. Scott Moore

, that sweet, smooth-pated Marine, possibly have imagined that his fantasy movie star babe would actually say yes to a date? That'd be

Black Swan

star

Mila Kunis

, who has accepted Moore's invitation to accompany him to the Marine Corps Ball on Nov. 18 in Greenville, N.C.

Moore taped his YouTube invite in Musa Qala, Afghanistan, where he is serving with the Third Battalion Second Marines. "Hi, Mila, I just want to take a moment out of my day to invite you to the Marine Corps Ball with yours truly," he said. "So take a second to think about it and get back to me. All right, bye now."

Kunis was encouraged to accept by her Friends With Benefits costar Justin Timberlake. "You need to do it for your country," JT told her during a joint interview with FoxNews.com. "This needs to go down."

Kunis said she'd do it, then asked JT if he'd be there.

"They don't want me!" he shot back. "They want you."

"What I'm really, really so honored about is to be a part of France, to be a part of the city and the country of my dreams."

So Liza Minnelli, 65, said Monday upon being bestowed the nation's Legion of Honor at a ceremony in the City of Light.

"Thank you for giving this wonderful tennis game of life that we have going together," she added.

Culture Minister Frédéric Mitterrand pinned the medal doodad on Liza's lapel.

"We love you because you make our lives better," he said.

There was so much applause,

many smiles at the Israeli parliament in Jerusalem Monday during a visit by American opinion-maker

Glenn Beck

, who told Israeli lawmakers of his unequivocal support for their nation.

Beck, who left his Fox News show last month, told the assembled to "stop playing the game" of mainstream media. (Is that like Monopoly? Or Operation?)

Beck plans to lead a pro-Israeli rally next month in Jerusalem's Old City.

Meanwhile, the beloved broadcaster says he's taking his family and his media empire to Dallas. Beck, who will continue his radio show, is launching online network GBTV.
