Susan Boyle before now Bigger Than Whitney Houston

Whitney Houston, the Beatles and Jay-Z have to step aside. Susan Boyle is the new queen bee of the album charts.

Too bad no one will get to hear her record until Nov. 24.

Britain's Got Talent's undeniable breakout star—whether she won the grand prize or not—is nearly three months from the release of her debut album, yet, thanks to presales, stands at the very top of Amazon.com's best-seller list.

Houston's comeback album, reissues of the Fab Four's classics, Jay-Z's Blueprint 3 and even the soundtrack for New Moon are eating her dust.

Talk about dreaming a dream!

Rumer Willis meeting nakedness, weapons and Lesbian Kisses

Will Rumer Willis hold in some same-sex smooching on 90210? It would totally make sense bearing in mind she's making her debut on the upcoming season playing a lesbian student at West Beverly Hills high School.

"I don't know yet," Rumer, 21, tells me. "I've only done two episodes, and we're just kind of seeing how she fits in with the storyline and how she fits in with the group."

Just three days after 90210's season premiere next week, Rumer will also be seen in Sorority Row, a horror flick about a group of college co-eds being terrorized by a tire-iron-wielding psycho killer (out Sept. 11).

Celebrity line of the Day

“I think much safer with girls, so I feel more comfortable kissing her in the movie than kissing any of the other people that I had to kiss. I think she was extremely uncomfortable. I don’t think that — I know that. She was not comfortable and there was a lot of laughing — like, giggling fits that happened in between takes.”
Megan Fox talks about the girl-on-girl kissing scene with Amanda Seyfried in Jennifer’s Body on MTV.

The summer Top Movie

Been a weird summer. Aliens everywhere, too, fighting each other right next to Megan Fox and Shia LaBeouf, or stuck in some awful Johannesburg ghetto, or getting their asses handed to them by James Tiberius Kirk.
On top of that, the Nazis got what they deserved, Meryl Streep cooked up a storm, Johnny Depp and Christian Bale had their mojo stolen by four drunks lost in Vegas, then some old guy with a load of balloons made everybody cry like a little girl.
Lots of hits, misses and sleepers, but—because this is the Best of Summer 2009—what was the hottest flick? You make the call. (If your fave isn't on the list, drop it in the comments and make your case!)

Nude aspiration and the Vanessa Hudgens

Let's say your movie's red-carpet premiere is coming up. Let's say your drive for publicity is revving up.
Would you, say, leak naked photos of your leading lady about, oh, a day before the big to-do in trying to make it a bigger to-do?
Would you dare suggest that Summit Entertainment and Vanessa Hudgens were in cahoots to make a little movie called Bandslam a big, impossible-to-ignore part of your summer?
Would you?!
Then you are bad.
And you are just the type who's going to enjoy the following mostly made-up timeline of activity leading up to this past week's Bandslam gala:

Steven Spielberg's favorite Project Will Not Be Seen

Prepare for the greatest invisible rabbit movie ever.

Steven Spielberg is turning his moviemaking genius to a remake of the aw-shucks Jimmy Stewart classic Harvey, reports Variety. Based on a Pulitzer Prize-winning play, the film version is best remembered as the story of a tall, stammering guy and the even taller unseen bunny he calls his friend.

Stars have not been attached to it yet, but who could resist playing second banana to an invisible hare?

It's not Jurassic Park, but we're sure it'll be awesome.

Gets most recent Laugh-- Funny People

Funny People wasn't a typical Judd Apatow or Adam Sandler movie. But it managed a typical box-office finish for an Apatow movie—and an atypically big debut for an atypical Sandler movie.

The comedy-drama hybrid, which opened Friday, will gross $23.4 million through today, per estimates, enough to top the weekend standings, and put it in the ballpark of Apatow's The 40-Year-Old Virgin.

For Sandler, the take reigned over Reign Over Me, Spanglish and the comic's other un-comic pieces.The complete Top 10 standings—and a Harry Potter update—still to come…

Rachelle Lefevre: What Like That?-Be New Moon

Just gossip about self-conscious.

while the advertising bandwagon for New Moon takes off at full speed come the fall, how precisely will Rachelle Lefevre and Summit Entertainment handle themselves?

First up, Lefevre has already done some advance work, including a photo spread in a major women's magazine with vampiring costars Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz.

"They waited until all of the long-lead stuff was done before making a move," an insider says of Summit's announcement earlier this week that Lefevre was being pushed aside to make room for Bryce Dallas Howard in Eclipse.
