Wilson was filming a scene for his new movie "Drillbit Taylor" in Malibu on Friday and, much to the dismay of women and some men, required the use of a stunt-butt double.

While Owen rinsed off in an outdoor shower sporting swimming trunks, his double shook his naked moneymaker for all to see. Shanghai Moon, anyone?

The very next day, a still clothed but barefoot Wilson continued to show off his love for watersports, and his disdain towards the paparazzi, by dousing a photographer with his water bottle in Malibu.

Every neighborhood has that one annoying family who puts on the haunted house, trying to make everyone else on the block feel inferior with their boring ol' candy bowl.

Well, this year you'll show those over-achieving tools -- and eBay is going to help you. First, they have a Face Hugger from the film "Aliens." What's going to scare the kids more then a arachnoid alien trying to shove its alien spawn down your throat? The 50-inch prop was used in the scene, you'll remember, where the medical lab is being examined.

And if the young children on your block weren't born when "Aliens" came out in 1986, eBay's got an item that's a little more current. The incredibly creepy puppet from the film "Saw 3" is up for auction. The 48-inch tall puppet, used in the film, comes complete with a remote that moves the eyes and mouth. If that doesn't scare the neighbors, then you should consider moving, because them people ain't right.

Much to the delight of her fellow diners, Natasha dumped the contents of her purse onto a table and began applying makeup to cover up a blemish on her face. Classy.

Yes, "Faces of Death" -- the horrific snuff film "shock-you-mentary" of the late 70's that proudly claimed to have been "banned in 46 countries!" -- is back from the grave, just in time for Halloween.

This time around, it's being produced by "Transformers" producer Don Murphy of Angry Films, as well as Murphy partners Rick Benattar and Susan Montford. John Burrud, who, with his father, produced the original films, will executive produce the new film. No stranger to controversy, Murphy has produced films like "Natural Born Killers" in the 90's, and in this decade, the hot potato "Bully."

Now before you fire off an appalled, angry letter to Rogue Pictures president Andrew Rona, hear this: Despite its prurient title and concept, Murphy et al. have hired a director who's actually one of the more contemplative on the subject of human expiration and voyeurism, J.T. Petty.

Petty, you might remember, brought his documentary "S&MAN" (pronounced "Sandman") to the Toronto Film Festival to widespread acclaim. In "S&DMAN," Petty delves into the disturbing world of underground simulated snuff films, wherein victims are "dispatched" with all manner of grisly, albeit faux, torture. Despite its fringe-y subject matter, Petty's "S&DMAN" was essentially an indictment of mainstream horror films, pictures, he argues, that are rooted in the same voyeuristic leanings which sell such freakish fetish videos. "S&MAN" impolitely asked horror genre aficionados to question just why they so enjoy watching human suffering so much.

Meanwhile, Murphy has maintained his sense of humor about his part in the exploitative series.

In case his movie doesn't succeed, Borat has already devised another money-making scheme -- selling children to Madonna.

At Wednesday's London premiere of "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan,' the bumbling journalist told reporters about his grand plan.

"I have come here with Bilak, my 11 year old son, his wife and their child, and we are hoping maybe to put some chocolate make-up on the child's face and sell him to Madonna. I am hoping that Madonna will be a very good father for it."

Borat's other backup plans: Ice maker, gypsy catcher or animal sperm collector -- specializing in camels.

Here's hoping he doesn't quit his day job.

Break out the horse urine, it's a celebration of all things Borat.

The "journalist" from Kazakhstan played by Sacha Baron Cohen transformed the red carpet premiere of his new film into a scene from his home country yesterday -- complete with a parade of hookers, peasants and a horse drawn stationwagon.

After being carried to a stage by a "woman" who resembled a linebacker with a five o'clock shadow, Borat greeted the crowd on Hollywood Blvd. with "Good evening gentlemen and prostitutes."

As "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan" gets ready to open across the country next week, Borat says he's expecting big things from the film. "["Borat"] will take top spot from you Hollywood movie King Kong, which has been number one movie ever since it was released ... in 1932."

Borat and his Kazakhstani choir also treated the crowd to a rousing rendition of his country's national anthem -- though we're pretty sure the official version doesn't include the verse, "Kazakhstan is the greatest country in the world, all other countries are run by little girls."

Borat's on the hunt for America's favorite blonde lifeguard -- Pam Anderson.

In his new movie, the journalist from Kazakhstan, played by comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, comes to America to learn about the country, eventually crossing the states in hopes of wedding the Playboy pin-up.

Though men here focus on Pam's chest, the traits that caught Borat's eye were a bit different -- "Her teeth all grew on the inside of her mouth. She had more hair on her head than on her back and she did not look strong enough to pull a plow."

Not only are the women in his country unattractive according to Borat, prostitution is common too. "There is, of course, regional and national competition for prostitutes. and now the competition is increased because of the popularity of television program, '
Kazakhstan's Next Top Prostitute.'"

While it's easy to see why Cohen's statements in the Borat character have been causing controversy with Kazakhstan, we're guessing more will laugh than be offended when "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan" opens next week.

Barrymore was spotted walking in Hollywood on Saturday sporting a pair of baggy, dirty, ripped jeans which probably haven't seen a washing machine since Nirvana's last tour.

While her clothes may scream 1993, luckily Drew's career has aged better since such early 90s gems like "Poison Ivy" and "The Amy Fisher Story."

The studios demanded that executive producers, Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh, along with Microsoft each reduce their profit participation in the film which included a $5 million upfront payday, obviously their demands were not met.

Some insiders are speculating that the pull-out had to due with budget problems as rumors swirl that the film, originally budgeted for $135 million, had already busted the cap by a whopping $65 million,

Others feel that handing a huge franchise like "Halo" to first time director Neil Blomkamp made the studios way too nervous about the film.

But, fear not Halo-heads -- the project isn't dead yet. Peter Jackson's Weta Workshop is continuing to work on the film while Microsoft locks down another partner.

With the help of the digital wizards at Industrial Light and Magic, Disney will be re-releasing the film on October 20th. Using a process where digital artists take each shot and layer the images to create a striking effect, the film is sure to bring new visual splendor for those of us who saw it when it was first released.

Ever since Borat first began telling the world about his beautiful home country of Kazakhstan (a urine-drinking, jew-hating, inbred society), officials from the Kazakh tourism department have been pulling their hair out in frustration. They've already managed to shut down Borat's website, convinced most Kazakh movie theaters to ban the upcoming film and spent a ton of money in a desperate image-saving publicity campaign.

Now, after skewering the bumbling reporter in the media, the good folks from Kazakhstan are inviting Borat, aka Sacha Baron Cohen, to visit the country as an invited guest. Deputy foreign minister Rakhat Aliyev told a local Kazakhstan news agency that Borat could learn that "women drive cars, wine is made of grapes and jews are free to go to synagogues." While he doesn't agree with Borat's criticism of Kazakhstan, he believes that his fellow countrymen, "must have a sense of humor and respect the creative freedom of others."

This all sounds good, but maybe Borat should invest in a few large bodyguards before his official visit. Just in case.

On Saturday, October 22nd, 44 Krav Maga training centers across the globe will simultaneously offer self-defense seminars with 100% of the proceeds going towards the STOP CANCER research foundation. The seminars are part of the first annual Krav Maga Fights Cancer fundraiser, which was created to honor the memory of the highest ranking female Krav Maga instructor in the United States, Marni Levine, who passed away earlier this year after a five-year battle with breast cancer. The goal is to raise over $50,000.

A source tells TMZ that Brown came into the hip Le Bra Lingerie boutique in West Hollywood on Saturday and was gushing about her impending birth.

Brown, who has a 7-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, is a frequent shopper at the store and admitted the pregnancy had her feeling tired. Brown added that she was concerned she may be carrying twins since, she noted, they run in Murphy's family.

While on her shopping spree, Melanie picked up nearly $5,000 worth of Eres lingerie for herself and about $300 worth of La Perla men's undershirts and underwear for Eddie.

In April, Murphy's divorce from his ex-wife Nicole became final. The "Daddy Day Care" star has five children with Nicole and another son from a previous relationship.

Murphy's rep told TMZ "We do not comment on Mr. Murphy's personal life."

Calls to Brown's rep were not immediately returned.

The two-time Oscar winner was photographed on the New York set of her new film "P.S. I Love You" on Tuesday sporting a dowdy dress with a strange wishbone like graphic on the front along with a pair of Ugg-like slippers/shoes.

If Hilary can win Academy Awards for transforming into a transgendered person and a female boxer, then playing a fashion victim should be a breeze.

Willis' ex-wife, Demi Moore, was in attendance along with her husband, Ashton Kutcher, and Willis and Moore's three daughters -- Scout, Rumer and Tallulah.

"I used to come down here and look at these stars and I could never quite figure out what you're supposed to do to get one," Willis said. "And time has passed and now here I am doing this, and I'm still excited about it. I'm still excited to be an actor." Other celebs in attendance included Kevin Costner, Ben Affleck, Billy Bob Thornton, Don Johnson and Sylvester Stallone.

Willis rose to fame in the dramedy "Moonlighting" in 1985. He won the Emmy Award for outstanding lead actor in a drama series in 1987. And most recently, the star lent his voice to the character of "RJ" in Dreamworks' animated "Over The Hedge," the DVD of which debuts today.

Willis' broad resume includes such films as "Die Hard," "Pulp Fiction," "The Sixth Sense" and "Armageddon." The fourth film in the "Die Hard" series, "Live Free or Die Hard," is due out June 29, 2007.

Drew Barrymore is still going strong with her longtime boyfriend, Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti.

The hipster duo where spotted walking through Soho on Saturday looking like quite the happy couple.

And it seems Drew can't claim she's "never been kissed" anymore, as Fab planted one on her when they stopped inside a local art gallery.

Drew and Fabrizio are probably the only thing cooler than a New York autumn afternoon.
