Matt and Luciana Damon have another baby girl

"Hereafter" finished fourth at the box office this weekend, but we're guessing its star Matt Damon isn't paying much attention to that. He's busy getting acquainted with his new daughter.

Damon and his wife, Luciana, welcomed their third child into the world earlier this week. Stella Zavala Damon was born Wednesday (Oct. 20) in New York, People reports.

Stella joins a family that includes 4-year-old Isabella and 2-year-old Gia, in addition to Luciana's daughter from a previous marriage, Alexia.

"Mom and baby are both healthy," Damon's rep tells People. "The whole family is thrilled."

Damon can currently be seen on screen in the Clint Eastwood-directed "Hereafter." He co-stars in the Coen brothers' adaptation of "True Grit" later this year and in the upcoming sci-fi flick "The Adjustment Bureau," which is scheduled for release in March.

'America's Got Talent' auditionee Joe Finley arrested for drugs, 'person of interest' in wife's death

"America's Got Talent" auditionee Joe Finley is in a bit of trouble in Los Angeles. The same day his wife Laura was found dead in a stairwell at the millennium Biltmore Hotel (Saturday, Oct. 23), Finley was arrested for drug possession and has been called a "person of interest" in her death, reports TMZ.

Finley was fully aware his wife had been missing for several hours when he chose to go through with his "AGT" audition on Saturday. He tells TMZ he had "taken two ecstasy pills and Laura took one around 8:30 p.m. on Friday (Oct. 22) before they went out partying."

Finley says they eventually returned to their room at the hotel and went to bed. He claims he heard Laura get up at around 3:00 a.m. and leave the room -- he says he assumes she was getting ice.

When he awoke in the morning, Laura was still not there. Finley called hotel security, but left as planned for his 2 p.m. audition. He says police approached him on the way to the audition and showed him a picture of Laura's face where she was injured. He claims that at this point, he assumed she was dead, but then he went to the audition anyway.

Finley is claiming that his wife's death was "not an accident. Somebody threw her off that railing," (the railing being the rail in the hotel stairway). Finley claims the cops told him someone went to the front desk and requested a key to their room around 1:30 a.m. Saturday morning, which is about 90 minutes before when Finley claims he last saw Laura.

It's all very strange. We'll let you know if we get any more information. We are definitely curious as to whether he'll make it far on "AGT" and if so, will this be included in some kind of on-air video package? "AGT" does love to do those.

Graham Stookey asks 'If Justin Bieber can get famous ... why can't I?'

18-year-old Colorado native Graham Stookey is trying to be the next internet sensation. He has a YouTube channel where he plays both originals and covers. His latest video, which is sure to go viral, is of a song actually titled "Jonah," but on YouTube it is labeled "If Justin Bieber can get famous ... why can't I?" As far as we know, "Jonah" is an original Stookey tune and it's good. He's got some mad guitar skillz.

We agree, Graham -- why can't you be famous?

We have also posted for you Graham's terrific acoustic guitar mash-up of Flo Rida's "Low," Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" and Justin Timberlake's "Rock Your Body" and

his piano mash-up of Miley Cyrus' "Party in the U.S.A." and Lionel Richie's Commodores' "Easy." We think that last one might be our favorite -- it's pretty genius.

Speaking of Timberlake -- hey Justin, since Usher got Bieber and Ellen DeGeneres got Greyson Michael Chance, maybe you can go after Graham.

What do you think, Dish Rag readers? Is Graham Stookey the next big thing?

Kanye West's 'Runaway' film: Beautiful, crazy and cool

Whatever else you may say about Kanye West, subtlety is not his stock in trade.

West didn't just make videos for the tracks on his new album, "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy," he made a film. The 30-minute-plus "Runaway," which incorporates nine songs from the album, debuted Saturday night (Oct. 23) on MTV, MTV2 and BET.

You can easily read "Runaway" as yet another rejoinder from West to his haters. Its sometimes very heavy-handed message is encapsulated in a line spoken by Selita Ebanks' phoenix character near the end: "You know what I hate about your world? Anything that is different you try to change. You try to tear it down."

That aside, though, "Runaway" (which West directed) is a pretty impressive piece of filmmaking. West more or less plays himself, and he encounters Ebanks' phoenix when she crash-lands on Earth right in front of his car. We see West trying to show her his world, but the world doesn't seem to want her, and she eventually decides she needs to return to her own realm.

Visually, the film is stunning -- there are sequences involving a marching band and a giant effigy of Michael Jackson's head and later a group of ballet dancers that are wonderfully cinematic. Narratively? As we said, not exactly subtle, but it's not a complete ego exercise. ("Trapped in the Closet" this is not.) And also, the music is pretty compelling.

But judge for yourself: The full film is embedded at the top of the post. Watch it and let us know what you think.

Box office: 'Paranormal Activity 2' has the best horror opening ever

"Paranormal Activity 2" snagged the biggest box-office opening ever for a horror film this weekend. Not bad for a film that only cost a reported $3 million to make.

The followup to last year's out-of-nowhere hit grossed $41.5 million this weekend, according to studio estimates. That makes it the top horror-movie opening of all time, passing last year's remake of "Friday the 13th," which made $40.5 million in its first weekend.

"Paranormal 2" slowed down some after its $20 million opening day, which included a large number of Thursday midnight screenings. But it still made almost double the $21.1 million the first "Paranormal Activity" grossed in its first weekend of wide release last year.

Last week's winner, "Jackass 3-D," dropped to second place while earning an estimated $21.6 million, a drop of 57 percent from last weekend's performance. "Red" came in third with $15 million, dropping off only 31 percent from its opening. "Hereafter" pulled in just over $12 million in its first weekend of wide release, while "The Social Network" hung in the top five with $7.3 million.

The weekend's 12 highest-grossing movies are:

1. "Paranormal Activity 2," $41.5 million
2. "Jackass 3-D," $21.6 million
3. "Red," $15 million
4. "Hereafter," $12 million
5. "The Social Network," $7.3 million
6. "Secretariat," $6.9 million
7. "Life as We Know It," $6.15 million
8. "Legend of the Guardians," $3.2 million
9. "The Town," $2.7 million
10. "Easy A," $1.75 million
11. "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps," $1.2 million
12. "My Soul to Take," $1.1 million

Celine Dion gives birth to twins

Celine Dion gave birth two fraternal twin boys Saturday (Oct. 23).

The Grammy-winning singer and her husband, Rene Angelil, welcomed the two boys at 11:11 and 11:12 a.m. at a hospital in Florida. The babies were born prematurely but are healthy, according to her rep.

"Celine, Rene and their son Rene-Charles are thrilled," the rep tells People.

The couple hasn't decided on names for the twins, who will spend their first few days in an incubator due to their premature delivery (they weighed 5 pounds, 10 ounces and 5 pounds, 4 ounces at birth)."Celine is resting now and they plan to discuss what to name the boys when she wakes up," Dion's rep says.

The twins are the second and third children for Dion, 42, and Angelil, 68, who have been married since 1994. Their son Rene-Charles is 9 years old.

Dion was admitted to the hospital last week for observation and to be near her doctors in case she went into labor.

Our best wishes to the family.

'Blossom's' Jenna von Oy, Brad Bratcher wedding details

"Blossom's" next-door neighbor Six is all grown up -- Jenna von Oy married Brad Bratcher on Oct. 10 and is giving People all the details.

"We're so happy," says Jenna. "My mama told me never to meet a man at a bar - so I did!"

Bratcher, 39, is a Dell computer data consultant and has been dating Jenna, 33, for two years. They met at a wine bar in Nashville and became engaged last New Year's Eve.

The wedding was in Jenna's hometown of Newtown, CT, in the garden of a bed and breakfast. The couple's dog Bruiser was the ring bearer and fellow actors Kal Penn ("House") and Dule Hill ("Psych") were in attendance at the ceremony.

The couple's first dance was to Train's "Marry Me," but they also shared a special second trip around the dance floor as the deejay played a song that Jenna wrote for her new husband.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

'Glee': Playgirl to offer guys 100K to strip

Move over, Lea Michele and Dianna Agron. A couple other "Glee" stars could have their own racy photo shoot soon.

Playgirl magazine wants Mark Salling, who plays bad boy Puck, and newbie Chord Overstreet to show off some skin and are willing to pay for it, according to E! Online.

"We would definitely want [Salling]," says the magazine's rep. "We would be very willing to pay for them both -- up to 100 thousand. And it wouldn't have to be fully X-rated, either. [They don't] even have to take it all off."

Salling seems receptive. "Wow...really? A 100 thousand to keep my clothes on?" he says at his Pipe Dreams record release party on Thursday (Oct. 21). "I'll only do it if I can take my clothes off."

Well, if you insist, Puck.

We say, why stop there? Both Matthew Morrison, who plays glee club teacher Mr. Schue, and Cory Monteith, clueless football player Finn, both bare their abs for Tuesday's (Oct. 26) "Rocky Horror Glee Show" episode. Along with Overstreet, who has joked that he's contractually obligated to show off his chest, that makes for an "ab-tastic" cast.

After the brouhaha with the GQ "Glee" shoot, who knows if the guys will want to do it. Just in case they don't, Playgirl has other men in mind:

"The freed Chilean miners. We want five of them. $10,000 each. And I'm sure they could use the money."

As long as it's not Levi Johnston again.

'Hiccup girl' Jennifer Mee charged with murder in Florida

Jennifer Mee, who gained national attention a few years ago for a weeks-long case of the hiccups, is back in the news for a far different reason: She's been charged with murder.

Mee, 19, and two men have been charged with first degree homicide in the killing of a man in St. Petersburg, Fla., on Saturday (Oct. 23), the AP reports. Police say Mee -- whose hiccups landed her on the "Today" show in 2007 -- lured 22-year-old Shannon Griffin to a house where Laron Raiford, 20, and Lamont Newton, 22, robbed him. Griffin was then shot after a struggle and died from his wounds.

Mee, Newton (who Mee's father says is her boyfriend) and Raiford are all cooperating in the investigation, police say.

Mee's mother, Rachel Robidoux, says the notoriety from her hiccups changed Jennifer (pictured above with Robidoux in 2007). She also says her daughter was "naive."

"She was easily misled," Robidoux tells The Tampa Tribune. "This is not the Jennifer I know."

Mee appeared on "Today" in 2007 for her unusual bout of hiccups. He was hiccuping as much as 50 times a minute; they lasted for more than a month before going away.
