Sharknado 2 in movie theaters… Nicole Murphy refused to sign a prenup… Sandra Bullock’s big bucks last year… “The Big Bang Theory” negotiations… and Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are headed for divorce?
If you’re a super-duper Sharknado fan, this should get you all hot and bothered. For one night only, “Sharknado 2: The Second One” will be in movie theaters across the country! It’s happening Thursday, August 21, at 8pm local time. Tickets are already available at FathomEvents.com.
Michael Strahan and Nicole Murphy were engaged for five years until she called it off. Why didn’t they ever make it down the aisle? A source told Page Six it’s because Nicole refused to sign a prenup. Nicole got millions when she split with Eddie Murphy and gave it all to this financial advisor who lost it all in bad overseas investments. She ended up suing him for $7 million, but when she was flat broke, Michael supported her financially. In fact, the source says Michael was EXTREMELY generous to Nicole. But still, she wouldn’t sign that prenup so he wouldn’t marry her. Apparently he was willing to keep living that way, but TMZ is reporting that Nicole dumped Michael when she found out he cheated on her when they were “on a break.” Except, Nicole didn’t realize they were “on a break.”
Forbes is out with their list of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood. Sure, an Oscar for “Gravity” would’ve been nice, but how mopey can Sandra Bullock be when she looks at her bank account and sees all those zeroes! Forbes named Sandra as the top earning actress of the year, taking in an estimated $51 million between June 2013 and June 2014. Coming in second was Jennifer Lawrence with $34 million, followed by Jennifer Aniston with $31 million.
Their strategy paid off! While Mayim Bialik and Melissa Rauch signed off on their contracts back in the fall, the remaining cast of “The Big Bang Theory” pulled a “Friends” move, banded together and held out for more money. Production was supposed to begin last week, but the cast held strong. And now Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco are each getting a million dollars per episode. Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar are still in negotiations.
More buzz that Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are heading for divorce. Because of their work schedules, the couple spent most of the past 18 months apart. Sources say that Nicole told Keith that for the next six months, they should cut back on work and spend more time at home in Nashville concentrating on their marriage and their family. Keith agreed, but then Nicole turned around and accepted two acting gigs in London that will keep her abroad for about 8 months! Keith reportedly didn’t handle that news too well, so he loaded up his work schedule and headed back to LA. Sources say Keith wants to save his marriage, but they both have to want it to work and apparently Nicole doesn’t want it as badly as he does.
