Sideshow: 'Skyfall' goes through the roof

Posted: November 13, 2012

Skyfall, the 23d James Bond film, hauled in a franchise-record of $87.8 million in its first weekend at U.S. theaters. We at "Sideshow" know it's because Daniel Craig is the most dashing Bond in the history of Bonds. Please, Hollywood, don't let him go! Or, let him go and send him to stay in Philadelphia. Either way . . .

Pretty good for a smock

Follow the yellow brick road: Judy Garland's blue pinafore from The Wizard of Oz nabbed $480,000 at Julien's auction of Hollywood memorabilia over the weekend, $441,600 more than Julie Andrews' Sound of Music dress fetched. Clearly, gingham trumps butterfly sleeves. But who would win a battle of the vocal cords? Discuss.

Not over 'til it's over

By now, you may have heard that Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez broke up after two years. Not so! (Or, not permanently, says the Biebs.) Bieber has yet to give up hope that they'll reunite, reports TMZ, 'cause they broke up a bunch of times before and got back together!

Let it loose

Love letters for sale! From Mick Jagger to Marsha Hunt! Next month, Hunt, the inspiration for the Stone's 1971 hit "Brown Sugar," will have Sotheby's auction 10 of the letters Jagger wrote in 1969 from the set of Ned Kelly. A wwww.
