Scoop for the Week of Dec. 10
Dr. Ross to ER. Dr. Ross to ER, please. Once you get out of the ER, why would you want to go back? That's exactly what George Clooney is asking himself. He may return to ER for the season-ending wedding of his character, Dr. Doug Ross, to nurse Carol Hathaway, played by Julianna Margulies. But George's fee hasn't been set and since he left the show last season to pursue his silver screen career, his price tag may be too hefty. Julianna turned down a $27 million offer to leave the show at the end of the season. At least you know there's probably enough money in the budget for George's appearance. Charlie's Angel Takes On Kathie Lee Quick! Call Charlie. One of his angels needs backup. Jaclyn Smith is sweating over her sweatshop feud with Kathie Lee Gifford. Seems Kathie Lee publicly dragged Jaclyn into the Third World exploitation issue. Kathie Lee invited Jaclyn to join her at a meeting with President Clinton to discuss sweatshops. But when Jaclyn didn't respond to Kathie Lee's invitation, she took it personally. In a recent interview with Jane Pauley on Dateline, Kathie Lee said, "When Jaclyn Smith was contacted she said, 'Oh no, that doesn't happen. My clothes are never made in factories like that. Well, the truth is, our clothes are all made in the same factories. Mine next to Donna Karan, next to Jaclyn Smith, next to Ralph Lauren in many cases.'" Better call Kate and Cheryl. This sweatshop story needs more angels. Cameron's So-Called Life Don't let Cameron Diaz in the same room with Matt Dillon. The There's Something About Mary star can't stand the sight of her ex-boyfriend. Their romance lasted three years but she says there's no love lost. Maybe that's because she's found someone else. Thin Red Line and My So-Called Life star Jared Leto entered the picture and Cameron couldn't be happier. She says they like to go out and party and she doesn't have to worry about his mood. "Jared's terrific," she said. "He doesn't have any problems sorting out his life or worrying about how people perceive him." While Jared's looks earned him heartthrob status, Matt was a teen idol long before Jared was riding a tricycle. Are you ready for the holidays? Imagine having to celebrate a birthday at this hectic
