Cheap Frills

Patricia Field (stylist for 'Sex and the City') is officially emancipating slaves to fashion with a new clothing line. Now you can dress like Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte and skip the Debtors Anonymous meetings. The collection, called Destination Style New York, is based on the four gals' wardrobes and will be available on the Home Shopping Network with items priced from $39 to $200.

Head Game

D.L. Hughley's comedy career has taken him all over the map, from 'The Original Kings of Comedy' to HBO Specials and his own sit-com. But don't expect him to go soft in his old age. This man has a plan — and it doesn't involve fat suits or zany animal antics. "The great thing about what we (comics) do is that as long as you can stay sharp mentally, you can always do what you do," Hughley says. "It's not like an athlete that has a career with a shelf life. If you can stay current and relevant it's not hard to keep doing this. I might be older and getting a little grayer, but I love what I do and I can't imagine ever not doing it."

For Fun and Prophet

Bill Maher doesn't need to believe in religion to go on a vision quest; his new creed-skewering documentary, 'Religulous,' definitely shows a man on a mission. "I just thought this is the one topic I feel strongly about and it's the one topic that no one has made a movie like this," he says. "It's the ultimate taboo. It's the last taboo. It needs debunking." The great mystery of this creation, however, is whether the faithful will uncover signs — and brandish them outside theaters. "There's people writing on the Web 'don't see this movie' and 'Bill Maher is Satan,' but whether it takes to the streets kind of thing, I don't know," he says. (photo: Malcolm Taylor/Getty Images)

Reaching for the Stars

After a stint as Vincent Chase's sexy — and willing — agent on 'Entourage,' Carla Gugino is cleaning up her act with a new role in Disney's 'Race to Witch Mountain,' an installment of the '60s alien franchise. Playing an astrophysicist bent on proving that extraterrestrials exist, however, means taking on a few other colorful characters: The fans. "One person did say to me, 'Next year, for sure, they're going to reveal on television that we have found an actual alien.' I was like, 'Wow, did you find him yet?,' and he was like, 'I can't speak about that right now, but I will tell you by next year.' I was like, 'Okay, great.'" (photo: Lester Cohen/WireImage.com)

Everyone's A Critic..and A Writer

Richard Roeper gets two thumbs up for his performance in the season premiere of 'Entourage.' Series creator Doug Ellin was impressed not only with the movie critic's performance (slamming Vincent Chase and 'Medellin'), but with his writing abilities. "Everyone talks about improvisation on this show....We gave [Roeper and Michael Phillips] scripts we wrote, and they said, 'What do you think if we did this?' It was much funnier than what we did. So they can write, too." (photo: Rosemary Goldhar/WireImage.com)

Elba Speaks Out

Idris Elba had to lose his British accent to play Stringer Bell ('The Wire') and many of the other American parts he's been racking up. But he's happy to revert to his own rhythms for his role as Mumbles in Guy Ritchie's new 'RockNRolla.' Says Elba: "I absolutely love working in my own accent. ...I also like to be as close to who I am and it was nice to be a character who is more relevant to me." But if you can't understand him, don't blame his enunciation. "He's not called Mumbles because he mumbles, which is normally the number one question, he's called Mumbles 'cos that's his name."

Blood Bros

It's no secret that the stars of 'Entourage' kick it outside of work; as Jerry Ferrara told NY Metro: "I play golf with Kevin Dillion regularly. I'll see [Kevin] Connolly out somewhere, or we'll go grab dinner. We're always in contact, even when the cameras are not rolling. They're my best friends. Those guys are my brothers." More importantly, however, would Ferrara throw down Queens-Boulevard style if any of his cast mates found themselves locked in fisticuffs? "I would without a doubt be right smack there in the middle, back-to-back with them all." You hear that, Busey? (photo: Vera Anderson/WireImage.com)

Perfect 10

The 'Entourage' lifestyle overflows with champagne wishes and Armani dreams, but honestly, how much fun can an Aston-Martin be without an A-list hottie riding shotgun? Ok, still lots of fun; but you get the idea. As an ode to this power of gorgeous women to exponentially enhance the good life, JustMen.com ranked their most wanted 'Entourage' ladies. So who topped the list? Don't worry — we won't spoil the tension. (photo: Jason Kempin/WireImage.com)

No Butts About It

Good thing Rex Lee has his talent and fame to fall back on to attract dates. Lee lent his pick-up artistry to Boston college students competing to come up with the best pick-up lines recently and helped craft this humdinger: "Are you from 'Star Wars,' cuz your (butt) is out of this world!" Admitted Lee: "I have no good lines, it's why I'm tragically single." (photo: Jason Kempin/WireImage.com)
