GEORGE CLOONEY PUTS “THE AMERICAN” ON TOP OF THE WEEKEND BOX OFFICE!
George Clooney ruled. Lindsay Lohan returned. Drew Barrymore misses again!
George Clooney’s The American ($13.1 million Friday-Sunday; $16.4 million Friday-Monday). Nearly 90 percent of the opening-weekend audience was age 25 or older. Since opening last Wednesday, the thriller is at $19.5 million overall, great business for a $20 million movie.
The American is Clooney’s first No. 1 film, if you don’t count 2008′s Burn After Reading, which was an ensemble film (not to mention a Coen Brothers film), or the Ocean’s Eleven movies, which likewise were all-star efforts.
“Its a beautiful day in la to have a hit film!!!,” Lindsay Lohan tweeted Sunday. Her Machete ($11.4 million Friday-Sunday; $14 million Friday-Monday) moved up to second in the standings, her best showing since Mean Girls back in 2004. As Lohan herself attested, via Twitter, Danny Trejo is the star of Machete. The veteran character actor and filmmaker Robert Rodriguez were the main draws in a film that dominated the Latino market in big cities.
Drew Barrymore’s and Justin Long’s Going the Distance ($6.9 million Friday-Sunday; $8.6 million Friday-Monday) came up way short of the romantic-comedy’s reputed $32 million budget. Going the Distance is Barrymore’s third straight underperformer after last year’s Everybody’s Fine and Whip It, which she directed.
Jennifer Aniston’s The Switch ($3.1 million Friday-Sunday; $3.9 million Friday-Monday) is out of the Top 10 after two quick weekends. For all the bad press, the comedy has made good on its reputedly $19 million production budget with a $22.3 million overall gross so far.
1. The American, $16.4 milion
2. Machete, $14 million
3. Takers, $13.5 million
4. The Last Exorcism, $8.8 million
5. Going the Distance, $8.6 million
6. The Expendables, $8.5 million
7. The Other Guys, $6.7million
8. Eat Pray Love, $6.3 million
9. Inception, $5.9 million
10. Nanny McPhee Returns, $4.7 million
NOTHING SAYS THE END OF SUMMER LIKE THE BLACK TIE BEACH ANNUAL RITUAL!
PARIS HILTON’S QUICK IN AND OUT AFTER HER ARREST IN VEGAS HAD QUESTIONS!
After Paris Hilton was arrested in Sin City last week for alleged cocaine possession, questions arose as to how she was able to get in and out of Clark County Detention Center in just three hours when the usual charge process takes about six.
It wasn’t special treatment exactly. Authorities say they merely wanted to get the heiress out as fast as possible to avoid any chaos, not to do her any favors. “Yeah, she was treated differently so I don’t have a disruption of my process here at the county jail,” Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Deputy Chief Jim Dixon told The Las Vegas Review-Journal.
“When you bring somebody in like that, everybody comes over and tries to look at them. I’d have officers attempting to keep inmates away from her. I’d have disruptions.”
However, Dixon made sure to state that just because the process was faster than normal, Hilton was still subject to all regular booking procedures. Hilton is scheduled to appear before Las Vegas Justice of the Peace Joe Bonaventure on October 27.

Gunnar and Matthew Nelson, stopped by Charlie’s new radio partner studios, Black Card Radio in Burbank, where Charlie’s national syndicated radio show is now recorded and distributed to the U.S., Canada, and internationally!
The Nelson twins are in the Guinness Book of World Records being part of 3 straight generations of a family who had #1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 Record Charts. Their grandfather Ozzie Nelson, had a #1 hit in the 30′s as a big band singer, their Dad Rick Nelson, not only had a number one song, but also in the same week that happened, had the #1 TV show, and #1 movie for another Guiness record, and the Nelson twins themselves had a #1 record with their 1990 hit “(Can’t Live Without Your) Love & Affection!
They’re currently on a year-long national tour with a tribute to their dad, “Ricky Nelson Remembered”, as well as their CD “Like Father, Like Sons” where they’ve recorded a dozen of their dad’s hits, as well as the bonus track, “Just Once More”!
“Fans of Matthew and Gunnar, and their dad Rick Nelson, will get chills as the twins literally channel their father’s voice and phrasing in this tribute to their Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame father with a CD full of his hits! The sound similarity of their voices with their dad’s original recordings is striking!” – Charlie Tuna
