Again, I’m still on vacation, but unlike me VH1 never rests, hence their new show, Celebrity Magic Club, in which various notables like that one Pussycat Doll, and That Woman From A Sitcom, Maybe learn magic for some reason. It’s not the David-Blaine, standing-on-a-block-for-two-days, or sitting-in-a-giant-water-globe-for-a-week kind of magic—which is unfortunate because it might be fun to see C. Thomas Howell buried alive. Instead, the show appears to be a chance for VH1 to burn through all of its leftovers—Ant, Hal Sparks, the candle-strewn interview room from The Pick-Up Artist—with a little pyrotechnics, and hidden mirrors. video.vh1.com...

A day after the cast was set for Oliver Stone's upcoming political biopic of U.S. President George W. Bush, C. Thomas Howell has signed up to play the American leader in a comedy.
While No Country For Old Men star Josh Brolin will play Bush in Stone's drama W., Soul Man actor Howell will portray the President in new political satire Commander-And-Chief.
Directed by Gerson Sanginitto, the comedy can only loosely suggest Howell is Bush, because of the content of the film, but a movie spokesperson says, "There's no mistaking who he is supposed to be."
The insider adds, "This hysterical political satire is guaranteed to make audiences both laugh and think."
Meanwhile, Babe star James Cromwell, Elizabeth Banks and Ellen Burstyn have been added to the cast of Stone's Bush biopic.
Cromwell and Burstyn will play the current President's parents George Herbert Walker Bush and Barbara Bush respectively, while Banks will portray First Lady Laura Bush.
