Dude, Where's My Mutha F**kin' Car?
There are waaaay too many Mercedes in L.A. -- they're almost as common as botched plastic surgeries.
Perfect example: Certified badass Samuel L. Jackson couldn't get into a silver, four-door Mercedes yesterday -- because his car was the silver two-door Mercedes parked right next to it.

TMZ was outside of Cedars Sinai this afternoon as Samuel walked in to visit Wilson, and he was clearly taken aback by paparazzi presence.

Tyrese -- Oh NOW You Like Us!
For a guy who says he hates cameras, Tyrese sure seems to find the spotlight a lot.
TMZ cameras were at the Video Game Awards in Hollywood this weekend when we ran into Tyrese, who showed us a lotta love. Last time we were face to face with this hotshot, he shouted at our cameras, "Stop f***in' filming me, man." This time he made sure to get in our good graces.
Also at the event were stunning Rachael Leigh Cook, funny guy Seth Green, and The Man of Steel -- Brandon Routh.
Jessica Biel and Wilmer Valderrama showed up looking as sleek as ever for the Breakthrough Awards. Joining them were "Dreamgirls" star Jennifer Hudson, Justin Long (you know, the Mac commercial guy), and Jared Leto.
Wrapping this edition of Star Catcher: 50 Cent and Samuel L. Jackson gave photogs just enough time to snap some quick shots.

This Week's Biggest Losers 11/04/06
Today's Z-lister may well be tomorrow's gold standard. Just ask Mel Gibson and Kate Moss, who were honored this week, respectively, by the Latin Business Association and British Fashion Awards.
Prince: What's next? The Mirage poaching another famous Jehovah's Witness to resurrect its one-time marquee attraction as "Siegfried and Michael"? At the very least, Prince may need to adopt "???" as his new symbol. The idea that the diminutive 48-year-old pop star will, starting next weekend, be headlining as a Friday-Saturday Vegas regular at the all-suites Rio Hotel and Casino is about as logical as Marilyn Manson happily taking part in an episode of Trading Spaces. And if you're planning on shouting out a request for "Dirty Mind" classics like "Sister" (about incest) or "Head" (about... you know), save your money for the "When Doves Cry" slots.

"Snakes" Slithers Into Hollywood
Today is the day, finally, that Samuel L. Jackson's already cult classic "Snakes on a Plane" opens in theaters. Jackson showed he had no shame -- or sympathy for the snakes -- as arrived to the film's Hollywood premiere last night covered from head to toe with snakes.
The actor showed off his shoes, T-shirt and pendant inspired by the film's poster and admitted he had more "Snakes" memorabilia back at home. "I actually have Kangols that have snakes on them, I made those for the cast and crew for a wrap gift, so there is lots of stuff." To drill the fact home that the movie is full of the slithery serpents, in case you hadn't noticed via the title or the six months of relentless hype, Jackson also posed for photos with a 13-foot Burmese python.
Jackson isn't the only one basking in the "Snakes" glow, though, as co-star Julianna Marguiles says she's glad to be noticed for something other than "Dr. Hathaway" on ER. "It is the first time in my career that I have walked through the airport coming here and literally was stopped five times ... Usually it is always 'E.R.' stuff, so now it is all 'Snakes on a Plane' stuff, which I am grateful for."

Getting "Snakes" Through Security
These days it may be a bit harder to sneak a crate full of snakes onto a plane, but Samuel L. Jackson isn't worried about how heightened security measures will affect his new movie.
"It's unfortunate flying has become such a pain in the butt with the things you can carry with you ... we have to look at our fellow passengers and be like am I going to have to get on your ass or what ... it's just bad but i don't think it has anything to do with this particular film."
Jackson also promises the movie in question, "Snakes on a Plane," is not going to skimp out on any violence or mile-high club antics despite tighter restrictions in real-life flight.
"PG was not the way it's supposed to be, it's a horror film...there's some nudity now, in a horror movie like this people get killed in those situations...this has nothing to do with reality whatsoever."
"Snakes on a Plane" opens Friday.

Jackson Ups His Cult Cred
"Snakes on a Plane" is shaping up to be the most buzzed about movie of the summer and Samuel L. Jackson couldn't be happier. Already achieving cult status with the classic "Pulp Fiction," Jackson is ready to be recognized for something different."
"If people can stop yelling do I know what a quarter-pounder with cheese in France is called and start yelling get these motherf***ing snakes off the motherf***ing plane, I'll be fine, I'll be great."
The premise of the film is simple. Jackson's character is an FBI agent transporting a convict when the plane he's on gets attacked by poisonous snakes. Though the film doesn't open until August 18th, Jackson is already contemplating a sequel.
"There aren't that many vehicles that you can put people on that you can't get off of. Maybe they could do 'Rats on a Plane.' And the tagline for this one is: 'Where's a Snake When You Need One?'"
