Tim Burton and Helena Bonham Carter at a park in Malibu (11/23)
It's sickening that during these tough economic times where so many of us are struggling, the Hollywood elite feel the need to rub their wealth in our faces with their fancy shmancy clothes.

Director Tim Burton jokingly threatened to slit a UK reporter's throat after the reporter had the nerve to question the singing ability of actor Sasha Baron Cohen, aka Borat:
"If you guys were still on Fleet Street I'd come round with my razor, chop your head off and make it into a pie. Sacha will surprise everyone. When he auditioned for me, he sang Fiddler On The Roof without accompaniment and was incredible. Stephen Sondheim, who wrote the original Broadway musical, loves Sacha's voice."
I love it when grown men fight over musicals! It's just so....what's the word?...oh yeah: GAY. I'm a little surprised Tim Burton threatened this UK reporter with actual violence. Fights about musicals usually involve hair pulling, slapping, and scratching. I can't tell you how many scratches I ended up with the last time someone had the nerve to dismiss "Guys and Dolls" as "just another musical." It's a way of life my friends, a way of life.
