Stone's Bolder, Rocks Rescue
The spirit of Brangelina is rubbing off on everyone! Director Oliver Stone flew to central Colombia on Saturday to oversee a mission to airlift three hostages (including a toddler), held by rebels from Colombia's jungles. Who knew Oliver Stone had cojones of steel?!
The director met with and praised Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez -- who is leading the rescue. Stone was part of an international group of observers taking part in the plot.
Stone told reporters, "I'm hoping it works. I'm all for this," Mr Stone said. "I've never been in such a thing. I'm very proud to be a part of this." He also called the endeavor a "beautiful, great process."

Girls Gone Wild at Hyde
TMZ's cameras were out on Tuesday night doing what they do best, catching all the action going down in Tinseltown.
Our first stop of the evening was celeb favorite Mr. Chow where we ran into Oscar-winning director Oliver Stone. The talented director, whose movie "World Trade Center" opens today, showed up to the trendy spot with a few friends and stopped to sign a few autographs along the way. We also spotted "Failure to Launch" stars Bradley Cooper and Terry Bradshaw
After Mr. Chow, we stopped by--where else?--Hyde, where we caught up with a few random people like Jack Osbourne, Rod Stewart's son Sean, pro surfer Kelly Slater, rockers ZZ Top, Kal Penn from "Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle," and Joe Francis and his girls who bare it all.
All this and much more in this version of Star Catcher.
