Is Nicholas Cage The New Wesley Snipes?

IRS authorities are after Nick Cage, Clooney shows off his new lady-friend, Jude Law met the mother of his latest child on the street at 4am, Britney Spears has a new do and a Sopranos movie is in the works.

• Nicholas Cage is being chased by authorities for over $US6 million in back taxes they say that he owes. This would seemingly explain why he’s been selling off so many of his real estate holdings over the past year or so. Now seriously, how does a guy making at least $US12 million per film get into this sort of situation? [Daily Mail]
• Oh dear. Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson appear to be making another run at it, which is probably good for humanity as it’ll restrict the various strains of social disease carried within their loins from mutating into the general population. But still, enough already. [Sun]
• Rumors are swirling that there might be a Sopranos movie in the works. Lorraine Bracco hinted that the cast is just waiting for the right script, while Stevie Van Zandt said that his character is still alive. [Gatecrasher]

• Dina and Michael Lohan actually hung out together at a benefit over the weekend without killing each other. No sign of Jon Gosselin, unfortunately. [Page Six]
• Britney Spears is showing off a new look—platinum blonde hair! It’s just nasty, but then again, so much better than the bald look she formerly sported. [Mirror]
• Sonia Sotomayor was spotted in the Hamptons over the weekend shopping for fried chicken, naturally. [Page Six]
• Jack Nicholson is still out there doing his thing, partying it up with women young enough to be his granddaughter in exotic locales. The picture of him dancing with the girl doing the limbo or whatever made me laugh out loud. [Daily Mail]
• Mischa Barton had a “disastrous” dinner with friends in West Village the other night, where witnesses said she was chain-smoking and rambling on and on about a stalker. [Page Six]
