After officiating at a gay commitment ceremony last week, the newly-ordained, non-denominational priestess anointed the audience at the opening of L.A.'s Outfest Film Festival on Thursday. Lord, have mercy! Tori, who was raised Jewish, greeted the crowd with the biblical salutation, "Hey, bitches!" -- then had the predominantly gay festivalgoers hold hands while she delivered a lighthearted sermon. Praise Neimans! Tori's benediction included, "Let's pray that the paparazzi only shoot our good sides" -- unlikely!

After the premiere of "Save Me," Tori hit the after party and started deejaying. Mother. Reverend. DJ. Is there anything Tori can't do ... er, besides act?!

A movie in which Jennifer Lopez co-stars with her man of the moment -- sound familiar? With her latest foray into acting set to bow next month, TMZ spies tell us the movie is looking more like a "Gigli" than an "Out of Sight."

Insiders at the Director's Guild screening of "El Cantante" Monday night tell us that while Marc Anthony was good, the movie is more of a show piece for Lopez. The only problem, we hear, is that she and Marc have no chemistry. Ay caramba!

The movie stars Anthony as the famous salsa singer Hector Lavoe and Lopez as Puchi, the love of his life.

Puchi, Gigli -- coincidence?

The lesson is -- Homer and a big pink doughnut will carry the day every time. Cowabunga!

Springfield, Vermont will roll out the yellow carpet for the world premiere of "The Simpsons" later this month, beating out 13 other Springfields around the U.S. for the honor -- even though, as a rep for the city admitted to USA Today, it wasn't even invited to be part of the competition, initially. (There are actually 34 Springfields in the U.S.) The Vermont video entry included a real-life "Homer" running through the streets of the town, population 9,500.

Thirteen other Springfields competed, and the one from Illinois -- which actually has a power plant with a guy who runs it that looks a lot like Montgomery Burns -- was so confident it would win that its mayor, Tim Davlin, taunted the others to "eat my shorts" on national TV Monday night. D'oh!

Get ready to kick off your Sunday shoes -- Paramount is re-making "Footloose." Oowhee, Marie!

Zac Efron, of "High School Musical" and "Hairspray" fame, will take on the Kevin Bacon role as the rebellious newcomer in a town where dancing has been banned.

Let's just hope Zac dances as well with a tractor as Kevin did.

In a recent interview with Maxim magazine, the lippy starlet admitted that she's tried nearly every drug under the sun. "I've done drugs, and that's how I know I don't like them."

Ever the consumer reporter, Fox "tried several things" in order to "make an informed decision, but I didn't enjoy anything other than marijuana." In fact, says Fox, "I don't even think of it as a drug -- it should be legalized." Is it 4:20 yet?

Fox also discusses the white powdery stuff, and she's not talking snow. Says Fox, "Cocaine is back with a vengeance ... Celebrities aren't trying to hide it, except when people have camera phones."

TV Guide's Michael Ausiello is reporting that the long-awaited "Sex and the City" movie is finally a go!

Speculation has been swirling for a while that the movie was hung up due to its dueling stars, but Ausiello reports that SJP, Cynthia Nixon, Kristin Davis AND Kim Cattrall have all signed on the dotted line to do the film.

Shooting reportedly will start in September.

Thank God -- no more lonely Friday nights watching season six on DVD while drinking a bottle of wine by yourself.

TMZ has learned that the new Indiana Jones movie is heading to Hawaii. Cowabunga!

Cast and crew, including Harrison Ford, Shia LaBeouf and new cast members Jim Broadbent and Cate Blanchett are currently shooting scenes at Yale in New Haven, Conn. (No time for love, Dr. Jones!) Production of the fourth Indiana Jones film has been shrouded in secrecy, but TMZ has learned that the production is expected to shift to the garden island of Kauai within a few weeks ... then it's back to Hollywood to film scenes on the back lot at Paramount.

In return for their help, director Michael Bay treated the service members to a private preview screening. The response? "It took a movie about alien robots invading the planet to get the military stuff right," said Army Sgt. Charles Eggleston. "The movie accurately depicted life in the military," said Chief Master Sgt. Mike Gasparetto. Let's hope the military doesn't really spend its time battling robots!

Not even celebs can catch a break when flying commercial! TMZ spies caught former SNLer Jimmy Fallon stuck waiting for an LAX flight in Delta's Crown Room Club at JFK for seven hours -- where they were out of booze!

Once on the plane, he had to wait another two hours for takeoff. According to our spies, due to a delivery snafu, Delta had no alcohol on the plane either, and Fallon jokingly pled with his first class peeps for some Ambien, but came up empty. When TMZ contacted Jimmy's rep, she confirmed Jimmy was on his way to film scenes for the upcoming flick, "Rockett," with Sharon Stone and Lucy Liu.

Actor Shia LeBeouf turned 21 this past June, but the star of the new "Transformers" movie won't be morphing into a party-hopping club kid anytime soon. LeBeouf is working on the new "Indiana Jones" film and has vowed not to drink until filming wraps on the fourth installment of the series.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly last month, LeBeouf knocked the hard partying lifestyle. ''It could all go a

way tomorrow if I'm at a club drinking like an asshole," adding that, "someone like Lindsay Lohan's personality is [more] famous than her performance.''

The Golden Glober was spotted outside her trailer with her hair dyed menopause red for her role as Jimmy Fallon's mom in the upcoming flick, "Rockett."

TMZ spotted the director sucking the nail polish off some random woman's foot at Empress sushi joint on the Sunset Strip recently. After the "meal" and a few drinks, Q posed for pictures and hopefully downed some Scope.

Former "OC" star Mischa Barton is going lesbian (again) for her new movie, and this is the girl she's going to be locking lips with. Line forms to the left!

Shantel VanSanten is a former contestant on the short-lived NBC reality show "Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model Search." Shantel was one of the first contestants eliminated, but she seems to have landed on her feet.

The title of the hit movie "Knocked Up" suggests that Katherine Heigl's character is going to give birth, and boy does she ever! If you haven't yet seen the comedy, sorry to spoil it for ya, but there are multiple shots of a baby popping out ... with the camera right there between mom's legs. Or was it?

TMZ put its detective cap on to find out how "Knocked Up" writer/director Judd Apatow created this graphic scene and still managed to get an R Rating. We spoke with Larry of Honey's Place (an adult novelty distributor often called the "Costco of the porn industry") who believes the scene could have been created with special effects. Larry told us "We have vaginas in our warehouse. (Holy moly!) Manufacturers like Doc Johnson take a real porn star and make a latex mold of the body -- and they are pretty lifelike." Gee. Larry doesn't pussyfoot around.

Linda Teglovic, agent/owner of Body Parts Models says it's a tough job. "I would have a hard time finding a girl to do that," adding she has never seen a request for a "vagina double" on any breakdowns (casting call lists) that she's seen. But then again, anything's possible.

The New York Times Magazine reported in May that "The Devil Wears Prada" star Anne Hathaway was originally cast in "Knocked Up," but pulled out because she had problems with the vagina. Apatow told the Times "Hathaway dropped out of the film because she didn't want to allow us to use real footage of a woman giving birth to create the illusion that she is giving birth."

The MPAA wouldn't return our calls and Apatow was unreachable. Our best guess, culled from these snatches of information, is that "Knocked Up" used a stunt vagina.

Barton plays the most popular girl in a Catholic school who stumbles upon a sinister conspiracy while investigating the theft of SAT exams, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Bruce Willis co-stars as the principal while Rumer plays Mischa's less attractive friend.
