“The art of mothering is to teach the art of living to children.”

Elain Heffner, O Magazine, May 2003

I started by wanting to do a list of the top grossing films of my lifetime (1978-) but then decided it would be easier, with the dawn of a new decade, to list the Top 46 Grossing Films from 1980-2010 instead.

The amounts are adjusted for inflation because an even playing field is essential – in my opinion – to see which film made Americans get out of their house and down to the local theater to check it out.

^indicates first year of release. Film released multiple times over the years.

Avatar (#13) will climb several spots on this list before it leaves theaters and very likely will end up among the Top 5 releases of the past thirty years.

What is your favorite film from this list?  How many of these films have you seen? If I counted right…I have seen 31 of the 46.

24 Season Eight-Episode 4 Spoiler Warning

Renee Walker, played by the stunningly beautiful Annie Wersching, went absolutely bizerking nuts at the end of tonight’s episode of 24 and ‘out-Jacked’ the unshakable Jack Bauer.

Walker went back undercover as a Russian operative as the two-hour episode was winding down. She went to an old Russian terrorist buddy, who was at work, being monitored electronically by an electronic wrist bracelet since his parole.

Renee needed him to help her find Vladimir so she seductively told him she would help him get his tracking bracelet off so he could do just that.

Hesitantly he agreed…where she proceeded to put his hand in a clamp, grab an electric buzz saw and CUT HIS HAND OFF AT THE WRIST.

Jack – waiting as backup in the parked car outside – heard the ruckus, rushed inside and was shocked speechless upon finding Renee’s gory display of redhead insanity.

The incident only confirmed to him that she wasn’t ready to be back in the field.  Renee had a few ‘issues’ after last season, and she had even tried to kill herself by slicing her right wrist.

Brittany Murphy’s mother Sharon Murphy, who found the 32 year-old actress unconscious at the bathroom floor on December 20 (read more details), and her husband Simon Monjack gave a heartfelt first interview to Larry King, which will air on Larry King Live exactly one month after Brittany’s tragic death on Wednesday (January 20).

Simon is clearly having a real hard time copping with the loss of a loved one at such a young age and blames Hollywood for breaking his wife’s heart. “You want to know what broke Brittany Murphy’s heart? Hollywood broke Brittany Murphy’s heart,” Simon told King.

Simon said, “You wake up in the morning and it’s like a rebirth. It’s… there’s not enough time to… your dreams, be they good or bad, when you wake up and I reach out to touch or hold my wife and she isn’t there.”

Sharon recalls the tragic day she lost her daughter. She clearly remembers that even before the doctors came in to tell them the sad news, they already knew. They had felt it. “Three people came in. Sharon and I were holding each other. And they let us know at the same time that they — that she hadn’t made it,” Simon revealed. “But we knew before that,” Sharon said. “It was just — you know, you felt her life go out of her.”

Brittany Murphy was laid to rest on Christmas Eve at the Hollywood Hills Forest Lawn Cemetery. A large amount of prescription meds was found at the house but preliminary autopsy results indicate the actress died of natural causes. The official cause of death has been deferred pending toxicology reports.

American Idol sensation “General” Larry Platt, who is best known for his original viral song “Pants On The Ground” (watch Idol audition here), was a special guest and gave one amazing unforgettable performance of his hit on “The View” on Monday (January 18) – watch video below.

When asked about what had inspired the song, Larry, a veteran of 1960s civil rights movement, said, “I was walking one day, and [I saw] a guy with a baby bottle in his mouth, and he had his pants on the ground. And that’s what gave me the inspiration.” Larry’s song was such an instant success that it was already spoofed by Jimmy Fallon (watch video here) and even used during Brett Favre‘s celebrations (watch video here).

Singer/actress Jessica Simpson, accompanied by her BFF/hairdresser Ken Paves will return to reality TV with a “documentary” series titled “The Price Of Beauty”, which will premiere on Monday, March 15, 2010, at 10 PM on VH1.

The show will follow Jessica’s quest to find the universal definition of beauty while she travels the world and, surprisingly, finally finds her own inner beauty after being target of several cruel comments about her shape and weight recently.

Jessica said, “It changed me completely because I haven’t always had an inner confidence. The journey really was finding something beautiful inside me, and [knowing that] I own it.”

“I’ve always had a calling to be a positive light and role model for girls and women in the world,” Jessica added. “This show is my light. You’ll see my life changed. [I've] had to go walk the runway with tall, skinny models, and I almost puked. A runway? I’ll be the first to fall on my face!”

The 29 year-old is a beautiful troubled woman who still hasn’t found true love, or even a stable relationship for that matter, and that has certainly played an important role in her lack of self-esteem and poor self-image. Jessica concludes, “You can’t let anyone else [define] beauty for you. I carry myself differently [now]. And any man I find, they are going to be darn lucky.” Go Jessica!
