1It's a really sexy psychological thriller with Clive Owen. I had never done a thriller before. It was hard to kiss Clive, but you know what? Somebody had to do it, and that's what they pay me for.

2 I got him from the animal trainers on "Friends"-the ones who worked with the chick, the duck and the monkey. He was an actor dog, but he was so lazy that he had a terrible reputation. He wouldn't hit his mark. He just sat there. They said they sent his doggie head shot out and he wasn't getting any calls.

3 I'm pegged as a crier, aren't I? I was upset about the Vanity Fair article. I had one moment when I got emotional because I hadn't sat down with an interviewer since this whole debacle took place. It happened for a second and then it was over. But I do cry when I watch shows about babies being born. And I can turn on "Terms of Endearment" at any point and start crying-or "The Champ," with Rick Schroder.

4 It seems like people are messing around with dangerous stuff. Look at some of the faces out there! Men age gracefully, although you're seeing more men having plastic surgery, which is weird. Nothing is worse than a guy with an eye job-and don't think we can't tell.

5 Where are all the sitcoms? Why are we so obsessed with reality TV? We don't know how to write and create good shows. I wonder if reality TV is adding to the obsession with the rag magazines that create all those soap operas with celebrities. So-and-so is scratching so-and-so's eyes out-and, oh, my God, they may meet! It's so pathetic.

6How about that indictment?! And why did it take so long to respond to the crisis in New Orleans? Everything is imploding. It all seems to lead back to our dear president.

The big news about Prince Charles's stateside jaunt with his new missus Camilla was... well, you've got us there. But at least the visit, meant to highlight Britain and the United States' "common bonds and traditions"-like high-level marital scandals?-proved educational. Camilla, typecast as a noirish home wrecker, came across as jovial and down to earth. And she taught American women that lugging along 50 frocks on an overseas trip doesn't mean you have an ounce of fashion sense.

And guess who walked the plank? Last week CNN dumped its prime-time anchor 56, in favor of 38. Cooper now gets Brown's 10 p.m. ET slot, which will be expanded to two hours. Brown presumably gets a golden life jacket to keep him afloat while he's making other plans. CNN President Jonathan Klein said the network's new lineup just left "no options" for Brownie, who we think was doing a heck of a job. Klein must be right. Couldn't be an image thing, since Cooper's the one with the gray hair. Bon voyage.
