Encourages People to See 'Tomorrow'

Al Gore

Former Vice President Al Gore says people should see the upcoming movie "The Day After Tomorrow," in which global warming suddenly creates a new ice age that freezes entire cities.

Scientists and Gore agree that the movie is loose with the scientific facts, but the Democratic presidential nominee in 2000 said he hopes the film will get people to start talking about climate change.

"It's an emergency that seems to be unfolding in slow motion, but it actually is occurring very swiftly - not as swiftly as the movie portrays, but swiftly in the context of human history," Gore said Tuesday in a conference call organized by the liberal advocacy group MoveOn.org.

Digs Up Land Mines

Jackie Chan

Hong Kong action star Jackie Chan spent a week digging up land mines during a recent trip to Cambodia to raise awareness about the issue there.

Chan, a newly appointed U.N. goodwill ambassador, spent three days in Cambodia in late April, visiting land mine explosion victims and HIV/AIDS patients.

Cambodia has Southeast Asia's highest HIV infection rate at 2.6 percent for 2002, according to the United Nations. The country's remote areas are still strewn with land mines and unexploded bombs left over from three decades of fighting.

'Friends' First

Pearl Jam

The music heard as Jennifer Aniston's character Rachel was about to board a plane to Paris in last week's final episode of "Friends" might have sounded familiar, but its usage was an unfamiliar situation for the artist in question.

In fact, the snippet of Pearl Jam's "Yellow Ledbetter" used in the scene marked the first time the veteran Seattle rock act had ever licensed its songs for a television show.

According to a group spokesperson, it was simply a matter of the show's producers asking permission, which Pearl Jam granted. Although never included on an album until last year's rarities collection "Lost Dogs," "Yellow Ledbetter" has taken on a life of its own since its release as a B-side in 1992. The cut wound up appearing on seven Billboard charts in the mid-'90s, despite never being worked to radio.

Promotes CD for Charity

Jon Stewart

Selma Litowitz laughed, and for that, Jon Stewart is still grateful.

The "Daily Show" host is promoting a two-CD compilation by singer-songwriters to benefit the Parkinsong Foundation. It was set up by the children of Litowitz, Stewart's former English teacher who is afflicted with Parkinson's disease, a degenerative nerve condition.

"She was very patient, she was very understanding," Stewart recalled in an interview with The Associated Press on Monday. "She was the only one who made me feel that there was some kind of useful skill behind what I was doing."

Cancels Concerts

Willie Nelson

Willie Nelson has canceled concerts for the next two months to have surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome, a promoter said.

The 71-year-old country-western star, whose hits include "Whiskey River" and "On the Road Again," was apparently in so much pain he couldn't finish a show Saturday in Las Vegas.

Nelson had ten concerts scheduled for the remainder of May and June, including an appearance at the three-day Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, Tenn., beginning June 11.

Soldier Video Diary

'60 Minutes II'

A video that shows a young American soldier saying "who cares?" about Iraqi prisoners who died will air on "60 Minutes II."

The CBS newsmagazine (8 p.m. EDT Wednesday) obtained the video diary of a soldier, whose name was withheld, talking about conditions at Camp Bucca and Abu Ghraib in Iraq, where Iraqi prisoners were held.

"We've already had two prisoners die ... but who cares?" the soldier says on the tape. "That's two less for me to worry about."

Joins Oasis

Zac Starkey

The son of ex-Beatle Ringo Starr will drum for the British band Oasis at this year's Glastonbury Festival, says guitarist Noel Gallagher.

Gallagher said Zac Starkey was already rehearsing for the three-day mix of mud, music and mayhem in June -- Britain's biggest open-air music event.

Gallagher said the fact that Starkey was not from the style-conscious band's home town of Manchester should not be an obstacle. "He's a good boy. He's got a good haircut... Good shoes, which is important."

Cancels 3 Shows

Celine Dion

Celine Dion canceled three performances of her nightly show at Caesars Palace this week after a doctor told the singer she needed to rest.

The star has been hampered by a sprained neck for the past week, which she aggravated while doing her show, show spokeswoman Kris Lingle said Monday.

Leonard Nimoy

The women appear aglow; black and white images bathed in light. Some are nude, others are loosely covered with translucent robes or Jewish prayer shawls.

They are Leonard Nimoy's embodiment of Shekhina - the feminine presence of God.

In 2002, he published "Shekhina," a book of about 40 photographs that explore his interest in the feminine aspects of Jewish divinity. Many of the images are on display this month at the R. Michelson Galleries in Northampton (Mass).

"The Shekhina Project" closes May 31 and will not travel.

Insults The Welsh

David Cassidy

Singer David Cassidy insulted the Welsh at a concert in Cardiff, saying: "I don't know how you live here without slitting your wrists." The ex-Partridge Family star, who became famous in the 1970s, also ridiculed the Welsh accent during his half-empty gig, The Sun has reported. And the 54-year-old demanded silence for one of his songs during his last ever British tour.

When fans shouted, 'We love you,' he replied: "I can't listen to you and think and sing."

A spokeswoman for Cassidy said: "The weather was getting to him and he was exhausted."

Mexican Air Force Confirms

UFOs

Mexican air force pilots filmed 11 unidentified flying objects in the skies over southern Campeche state, a Defence Department spokesman confirmed Tuesday.

A videotape made widely available to the news media Tuesday shows the bright objects, some sharp points of light and others like large headlights, moving rapidly in what appears to be a late-evening sky.

The lights were filmed March 5 by pilots using infrared equipment. They appeared to be flying at an altitude of about 3,500 metres and allegedly surrounded the air force jet as it conducted routine anti-drug trafficking vigilance in Campeche. Only three of the objects showed up on the plane's radar.

Snarky Gossip

Scarlett Johansson

Sexy starlet Scarlett Johansson has stunned Hollywood by confessing to having sex in a lift with actor Benicio del Toro.The 19-year-old star shocked onlookers at the Chateau Marmont hotel before the Oscars ceremony in February by snogging the Traffic star.She then grabbed the 37-year-old Puerto Rican actor by the hand, and led him to her hotel room.

But Johansson - who got a crush on Bill Murray while filming Lost in Translation - admitted passion took over and they never made it out of the lift.

"We were making out or having sex or something, which I think is very unsanitary," she confessed.

Man Fatally Bitten

Aroused Horse

A sexually excited stallion bit a Polish man to death when he tried to calm the beast, which had become uncontrollably aroused by a nearby mare, police said.

"The 24-year-old man, identified as Robert R., was bitten when he tried to calm his horse, which had become unsettled by the presence of a mare in the vicinity," a duty officer in the Baltic port of Szczecin told Reuters.

An autopsy would determine whether the direct cause of death was a severed jugular vein or damaged spine, the officer added.

In Memory

Phil Gersh

Hollywood agent Phil Gersh, whose client list included such greats as Humphrey Bogart, Richard Burton, David Niven, Harrison Ford and "Sound of Music" director Robert Wise, has died of natural causes at the age of 92, his family said Tuesday.

Gersh, who died Monday at his Beverly Hills home, spent more than 60 years in showbusiness, becoming a leading figure in Hollywood's golden years when the movie business thrived on glamour and passion, rather than corporate boardroom decisions.

Gersh is credited with persuading director Billy Wilder to take a chance on casting Bogart -- who became a close friend -- out of his tough guy role and into a romantic role in "Sabrina." He also suggested that Wise try his hand at a musical -- namely "The Sound of Music."

Born in 1911 to Russian immigrant parents who ran a New York City delicatessen, Gersh moved to California after his sister married Paramount executive Sam Jaffe. He attended UCLA, worked in the Paramount prop department and then joined Jaffe's agency as a $15 per week office boy.

He quickly became an agent in his own right, making a name for signing young, upcoming directors such as Wise, Joseph Losey and Richard Fleischer.

After serving in the U.S. Army in World War II, Gersh returned to California in 1945 and reentered the agency business with Famous Artists Agency. In 1949 he founded his own business, The Phil Gersh Agency.

In the late 1970s, he was joined by his son Bob, who would represent actors Cindy Williams, Dennis Quaid and Michael J. Fox. His other son David left a career in law to join the agency in the late 1980s, expanding the literary department of the agency with the founding of a New York office in 1992.

The firm was renamed The Gersh Agency in the early 1990s. Gersh was still coming into the office most days until March.

An avid art collector, Gersh was a founder of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Beverly Hills Fine Arts Committee. He was also a member of the board of directors of the Motion Picture Television Fund.

In addition to his sons, Gersh is survived by his wife of 59 years, Beatrice Aberle Gersh, his sister Pearl Sindell and five grandchildren.
