Stinky!

Cameron Diaz' latest film, The Box, blew it at the box office on Friday night!

Directed by Donnie Darko's Richard Kelly, the horror flick is only expected to open to a measly $7 mil over the weekend.

Pretty shitty for a movie that cost $25 million to make!!

And Cameron's not alone! MJ's This Is It continues to slide down the box office earnings, with the doc only expected to earn $13-$15 million by the weekend's close.

The only success story of the weekend so far?

Disney's A Christmas Carol, starring funnyman Jim Carrey is expected to earn $30-$35 million by Sunday, securing it in the number one spot at the box office.

As expected!

He's really starting to look it!

Jim Carrey showed off a much heftier figure at UCLA's Visionary Ball in Beverly Hills!

The comedian is in the process of gaining 40-50 pounds for the role of Curly in The Three Stooges film. Not to mention the yetti beard!

And although we figured his health-nut girlfriend, Jenny McCarthy must hate it, she feels quite the opposite!

"Oh my God! I get to be dating Curly! That is the greatest thing ever," she said when Jim won the role.

Jenny will probably help him take the weight off in 5 minutes!

Damn him!

Months ago, we reported that Paul Giamatti was one of the possible names being tossed around to replace Sean Penn in the new Three Stooges movie by the Farrelly brothers after Penn decided to pull out and take some time off from acting.

Well, now it has been confirmed by director Peter Farrelly himself. Paul will be stepping into the role of Larry, helping to complete the trio of the icon stooges.

The final piece of the puzzle lies with finding the appropriate Curly. The role was once rumored to go to Jim Carey, but that is no longer the case.

Do U have any suggestions?

Jim Carrey is going to be a grandfather!

The actor's rocker daughter Jane Carrey, 21, is expecting her first child with longtime boyfriend Alex Santana or Nitro, as fans of his band, Blood Money, know him as.

Oh yeah, this kid is going to have a weird name! No question!

But Jim seems pretty happy about the whole thing: "I am very excited. Jane is going to be a great mom."

Well then, congrats! Not too many celebu-grandkiddies running around. You might just start a new trend!

Hussies of Hollywood, take note!

Jenny McCarthy could have easily had a wardrobe malfunction at the photo call for boyfriend Jim Carrey's film, A Christmas Carol, in Cannes on Monday - but girl's got that shiz covered.

A simple tug to the fabric can do a lady wonders!

Not flashing your areola to all of the world? Priceless!

Inspired casting!

Here's one flick we is almost a guaranteed hit.

MGM, along with the Farrelly brothers, Peter and Bobby, are almost done confirming their cast for their latest movie, The Three Stooges.

Set to play Larry will be Sean Penn and playing Moe they'd like to get Benicio Del Toro.

So who's going to play chubster Curly? Execs are going after Jim Carrey for that rule. He's reportedly intent on taking it and is already planning to gain 40 pounds to look more like the portly character.

Seriously, 40 lbs for a movie? Why not just wear a fat suit?!

The film has been in the making for almost a decade. The Farrelly bros, who wrote the script, first went to Columbia and then Warner Bros., before going to MGM and getting picked up.

We're betting Columbia and WB are going to regreat passing this up!

The movie begins production this fall and should be released later in 2010.

So guess what? Jim Carrey and Jake Gyllenhaal will be starring in a big screen adaptation of the classic musicals Damn Yankees.

Now, before you fret, know that the film is in the hands of power-producing team Craig Zadan and Neil Meron, who have successfully brought to both big and small screens Hairspray, A Raisin in the Sun, and the Oscar winning Chicago.

Considering their resume, we think we can trust them to, as they said, strike "a balance that retains the show's classic tunes like "(You Gotta Have) Heart" and "Whatever Lola Wants," while injecting a contemporary feel on a musical that is firmly rooted in the 1950s. The intention is to get a script from Ganz and Mandel before meeting directors, and actresses who'll want to play Lola."

For now, they've got Carrey down as the devil to whom Gyllenhaal as Boyd/Joe Hardy sells his soul to for the victory of his baseball team.

P.S. Can Jake even sing?????

Jim Carrey was on Larry King Live this week, and the outspoken comedian opened up about his private life and his longtime battle with depression.

Of note, he warned about the hazards of using anti-depressants like Prozac for a long period of time.

Carrey said, "At the risk of like opening up the whole Tom Cruise Prozac argument, you know, I don't disagree in many ways. I think Prozac and things like that are very valuable to people for short periods of time. But I believe if you're on them for an extended period of time, you never get to the problem. You never get to see what the problem is, because everything is just kind of OK. And so, you don't deal. And people deal when they get desperate."

That's why people should seek psychiatric help and talk to a therapist on an ongoing basis.

Carrey says - for him - the solution is "Supplements. It is vitamins. But it's also certain elements of the brain like Tyrosine and hydroxytryptophan that they're treating depression with now. It is a natural substance that's in your brain."

We have to give him credit, at least he sounds a lot smarter than Cruise did when he tried to campaign against pills. Carrey adds, "I'm going to talk a lot about it in the near future." Wonder what he has in mind.

As for his current love life, he says Jenny McCarthy helps him a lot. Though he has no current plans to get married. Adding, "I love Jenny very much, and we have a great relationship. And we've both been married a couple times. I like it the way it is, and I think she likes it the way it is."
