The Justin Files, 3/6/08


If I had a million dollars...
...I still wouldn't be as rich as these folks.

Forbes came out with their list of billionaire celebrities.

Yes, that's Billion, with a B.

Like a thousand million...billion.

That'll get you a lot of boardwalk pizza.

But I digress... on the list was, naturally, Oprah (worth $2.5 billion), JK Rowling, Steven Spielberg, and the youngest billionaire on the list, 23 year old Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, worth a reported $1.5 billion.

Hmm, let's think about what we were doing at 23.....



Sad news

80's movie icon Patrick Swayze is sadly suffering from pancreatic cancer. The prognosis for the disease is, in general, not good, but his doctor says that he is responding well to treatment. His publicist says that he is well enough to continue work on his current projects.






Quick Hits
* The Motion Picture Association of America happily reported that box office receipts hit an all time high in 2007. Come on, I could have told you that... when ticket prices keep going up your revenue will keep going up!

* MTV isn't going to be playing Point duo Gnarls Barkley's new video. The clip apparently extensively uses strobe effects. The "music" network is concerned for seizure risks. I don't know about you, but I had no idea MTV still played music videos.
