Lip-locked:
Cameron won’t get on the buss.

Kirk Cameron refuses to kiss anyone but his wife in front of the camera. Directors find him to be a growing pain-in-the-butt.

Better “Late Show” than never: John McCain appeared on David Letterman and apologized for canceling an earlier appointment on the program. He called his behavior a stupid vet trick.

She probably saw a different “Hancock”: A Hollywood madame alleges that Will Smith came to her requesting male prostitues.In light of her comments, filming for his latest project, “Men in Black Leather,” has been halted.

That’s Afrotainment: Turns out “Chocolate News” is a new sketch show starring David Alan Grier, not an informercial from Hershey’s. Color us confused.

Shoo shopping: A mismatched pair, indeed.

Microscoffed: If Jerry Seinfeld wasn’t in those weird Windows ads, he’d probably be asking what the deal with them was.

Crunch time: For every stolen base in the World Series, Taco Bell is giving away a taco to customers. And for bunts, free bundt cake.

He’s having the “Best Week Ever”: Regualr BWE contributor Paul F. Tompkins will take over as the lone host of VH1’s pop culture-skewering show. The folks at “The Soup” must be stewing.

He got lame: Spike Lee has ditched his agent of 15 years, as his latest film, “Miracle at St. Anna,” has been a bust. We’d say Lee doesn’t tolerate failure, but he is a huge fan of the Knicks.

Keeping Cool: Selling products is no sweat for LL.

Money pit: LL Cool J is endorsing Swagger, a deodorant from Old Spice. Not to be outdone, Curtis Jackson will soon debut his own, 50 Scent.

A true comedic heavyweight: Ricky Gervais has gone on record saying he’ll never shed pounds or work out for a movie part. That stance doesn’t make him very well-rounded.

Distill his beating heart: Daniel Craig revealed that upon learning he landed the James Bond role, he went to a liquor store and bought vodka. Sounds like Craig displayed Absolut elation.

She was acting “Like a Virgin”: Reports have surfaced that Madonna and Guy Ritchie, before they decided to divorce,  didn’t have sex for a stretch of 18 months. Ritchie is considering shooting a short documentary about it, “Slept Away.”

Howard’s end: A studio decision means Terrence Howard won’t reprise his role in  “Iron Man 2.” Some speculate the sequel will now “Crash.”

Star wore: Was Lucas more concerned with the backside than the dark side?

Leia it on the line: In a memoir due out in December, Carrie Fisher recalls that while filming “Star Wars,” George Lucas insisted she not wear a bra, because “there’s no underwear in space.” Lucas’ original idea was a sleazier movie, “Star Wars: A New Grope.”

He’ll portray him in a broad way: “You’re Welcome America,” a one-man play with Will Ferrell as George W. Bush, will open in January in NYC. Until then, we’re looking forward to the President “Movin’ Out.”
