The "Sex and the City" NYC premiere will be hilarious, even if the film sucks.
Sources tell TMZ Sarah Jessica Parker has 50 tix to the May 27 show at Radio City Music Hall. Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis each scored 25. So even if it's a giant yawn, 125 people will be laughing their skinny little asses off.
Parker got the extra tix because she contributed a lot to the Caroline Kennedy Fund for Public Schools, the beneficiary of the event.

Judging by all the pap attention, it looked like Kevin Costner was still relevant. It's too bad all the questions they threw at him were about things that happened -- or people he knew -- nearly 20 years ago.

Johnny Depp is doing what the president can't -- saving the economy one location at a time!
While filming his new film "Public Enemies" in Oshkosh, Wisc., Johnny's eating and drinking habits did more for the area's financial outlook than any reduction in interest rates. Depp and his pals -- who were staying at a hotel in nearby Appleton -- recently dropped a $1,500 tip on a $2,600 dinner at a local restaurant and that has residents saying, "Johnny Depp is welcome here anytime." Hillary & Obama, who?
The Michael Mann directed film filmed in -- and pumped cash into -- various parts of Wisconsin and Illinois, leaving a trail of very happy townies. See, Hollywood ain't all bad.

TMZ caught up with a woman who lives in the neighborhood where the new Will Smith movie "Seven Pounds" is being filmed, and she is totally P.O.'d at how the movie is taking over her street.
This woman claims she has to deal with construction early in the morning, portable bathrooms in the street, and crew members lighting up cigarettes outside her front door.
She's so frustrated, she has resorted to putting wacky signs in her yard -- risking the title of the neighborhood crazy lady. She really must be be desperate for help!

The 3'8" actor who played R2-D2 in the Star Wars flicks (yes, there was someone inside that thing!) is in the hospital with a mystery ailment. Blame Jar Jar!
Kenny Baker was rushed to an English hospital last night immediately after getting off a plane from Chicago. Baker's son told reporters that the pint-sized star has problems with asthma, although friends initially thought the 73-year-old's condition was more serious. Help him, Obi-Wan!
As Yoda would say, better get soon.

Isn't partying at Villa keeping Denzel out past his bed time?
We never see the Oscar winner out and about. Maybe he thought Villa was a bed and breakfast.
