Tom Maurstad files this dispatch on that other Tom:
Attention YouTube nation, prepare to start you DVRs. Three years after his couch-jumping antics launched a thousand satirical shorts on video-sharing Web sites, Tom Cruise is returning to The Oprah Winfrey Show.
Next Friday, Ms. Winfrey will visit Mr. Cruise in his Telluride, Colo., home, where they will talk about "family, his life and the future" and he can jump on his own furniture.
Then on May 5, he will appear in her Chicago studio and celebrate the 25th anniversary of his star-making (and briefs-baring) movie, Risky Business, complete with movie clips and videotaped messages from celebrity colleagues.

Carly Smithson Voted Off For Blasphemy????

I was bewildered enough when Carly Smithson was voted off American Idol after the judges raved about her performance. And then I picked up my New York Times this morning to read Edward Wyatt's story about online chat boards buzzing about her decision to sing the title song from Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar as being blasphemous. In the song, Judas criticizes Jesus and the show, as a whole, portrays Jesus as struggling to accept his role. Wyatt says that within hours of Carly's performance, a viewer on the show's official Web site, AmericanIdol.com, warned her choice of song might eliminate her. Could that really be what happened?
