Apart from that, how was your weekend?

Rickles... brought to you by this kinda awesomely sweet picture of Jon Stewart presenting the Johnny Carson Award to Don Rickles at the Comedy Awards. (AP Photo/Charles Sykes).

Rehitched People: "They do – again! Almost four years after their surprise wedding in the Bahamas, Nick Cannon got down on one knee before Mariah Carey in a vow renewal ceremony Friday night atop the Eiffel Tower. "Tonight was an incredible night," the singer Tweeted. "I can't express how amazing it was to renew our vows in Paris at the top of the Eiffel tower." The couple have much to celebrate beyond their four-year anniversary, which falls on Monday. Along with enjoying nearly 1-year-old twins, Cannon appears to be on the mend from frightening health problems, including kidney disease."

Julianne Moore to play Carrie's mom? Deadline: "It isn’t a big surprise, but MGM has formally offered Julianne Moore the nightmarish religious fanatic mother in the Kimberly Peirce-directed remake of the 1976 film Carrie. Chloe Moretz is already set to play the title character, a young woman whose devastating telepathic powers rear up when she reaches puberty. Kevin Misher is producing. Moore’s name has been in the mix for a while, but at the time MGM maintained it was talking to numerous actresses. Now, they’ve sent Moore the script and a pay or play offer to play Margaret White, the role that Piper Laurie rode to an Oscar nomination. The film is based on the 1974 Stephen King novel that was first filmed by director Brian De Palma. Sissy Spacek played Carrie White, and both she and Laurie got Oscar noms."

Patrick Dempsey to the rescue Us: "Move over Ryan Gosling, there's a new hero in town named McDreamy! Grey's Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey rescued a teenage driver Tuesday evening after crashed his car into the actor's front yard of his Malibu home, a source confirms to Us Weekly. According to TMZ, the driver lost control of his car and overturned it multiple times before crashing into Dempsey's front yard. The source tells Us that Dempsey rushed to the car (a Mustang) with a first aid kit and fire extinguisher in hand. The 46-year-old actor freed the boy from the car before calling 911 and police arrived. No serious injuries were sustained."

Action flick for Kristen Stewart Coming Soon: "Kristen Stewart has lined up a leading role in the action film Cali, Variety reports. 30 Minutes of Less screenwriter Michael Diliberti is providing the screenplay, which will feature Stewart as Mya, a young woman who, with her boyfriend, Chris, fakes her own death as part of a snuff film and runs away. Years later, she has to return to the San Fernando valley in an effort to save her sisters. There's no director currently attached, but the plan is to shoot this summer."

And here are my pages from yesterday's paper, for those of you who couldn't be bothered to buy a paper, thus assuring that I will be eating discount catfood and living in a third-rate cardboard box in my old age. Thanks a lot. Download StargazingApril29
