Tom Cruise to have another impossible mission

The last few movies (Valkryie, Lions for Lambs) didn’t do as well as studios were hoping. Probably because he was killing his image with all his craziness. Now that he’s calmed down a little, the solution for getting back his popularity? Another Mission Impossible movie! Tom will star in the fourth installment. By the time the film hits theaters in 2011, Tom will already be 48. Hopefully he doesn’t break a hip.

The first Mission Impossible was released 14 years ago in 1996. was much more spry back then. This time around the studio should budget for nap time and whatever else it is aging celebrities like to do. Reminisce about the old days when their assistants had to trudge through three miles of snow to get them coffee?

John Mayer: Jessica Simpson was sexual crack cocaine

spoke with Playboy and confirmed the stereotypes we hoped were true. , a reverend’s daughter, was like sexual “crack cocaine.” Let’s stick with the past tense on this one.

: In 2006 you began dating , and the paparazzi started stalking you, turning you into a tabloid fixture. Certainly you knew that was going to happen.

MAYER: It wasn’t as direct as me saying “I now make the choice to bring the paparazzi into my life.” I really said, “I now make the choice to sleep with .” That was stronger than my desire to stay out of the paparazzi’s eye. That girl, for me, is a drug. And drugs aren’t good for you if you do lots of them. Yeah, that girl is like crack cocaine to me.

: You were addicted to ?

MAYER: Sexually it was crazy. That’s all I’ll say. It was like napalm, sexual napalm.

: But before you dated her you thought of yourself as the kind of guy who would never date .

MAYER: That’s correct. There are people in the world who have the power to change our values. Have you ever been with a girl who made you want to quit the rest of your life? Did youever say, “I want to quit my life and just fuckin’ snort you? If you charged me $10,000 to fuck you, I would start selling all my shit just to keep fucking you.”

It’s kind of sad that the only relationship Jessica cares about now is the one she has with cookie dough. She used to be all sexy and skinny. Now she sort of just rolls around in butter.

Here’s back in ’04.

Jennifer Aniston to save Mexico one mimosa at a time

Jennifer Aniston celebrated her 41st birthday in Mexico with Gerard Butler, Courteney Cox and a big cake with 60-something candles. By all accounts, everyone had fun. But the real winner here was Mexico. Not only did they get to wait on these big Hollywood hot shots, but they were also saved by them. Asked why Aniston chose to celebrate in Mexico, she responded:

“These people survive on us coming down and spending money,” Aniston explains. Considering the country’s troubles with swine flu and drug trafficking, “It sort of made sense to sort of say, ‘Hey, let’s help out Mexico.’ “

Those Mexicans better be grateful. The Tinsel Town Red Cross came for a weekend and pumped their economy full of cash. There better not be anymore whining from them about their economy after this. As far as Aniston is concerned, Mexico should be the equivalent of at least Canada now.

Flag football with Marisa Miller looks fun

I used to think flag football as for kids under 6, women or nancy boys, but now I see that has the right idea, playfully letting Marisa Miller tackle him at the DIRECTV 4th Annual Celebrity Beach Bowl over the weekend. If this was me, I’d have to sit out for a quarter because of the massively painful boner I’d have.
