Slapping "exclusive" on this Sun story about Christian Bale allegedly assaulting his mother and sister, TMZ says The Dark Knight star was taken into custody over the allegations made yesterday by 61-year-old mom Jenny and 40-year-old sister Sharon. This, after police allowed him to attend the premiere of the new Batman flick after the police reports were made. Because if the throng of red carpet reporters are going to struggle getting face time with Bale, it's not like the cops could expect him to answer their questions.
No surprise here: The Dark Knight raked in over $155 million this weekend and broke a bunch of box office records. The latest Batman movie also became my latest obsession (see also: Jason Castro), inspiring me to see it twice in under 48 hours.
For those of you who saw it, click through for my favorite moments from the film and then feel free to add your own.
Thank heavens for Batman, because we are being treated to more Christian Bale this month than should be allowed. This time he’s gracing the cover of the UK GQ and saying more things to remind us he’s as beautiful on the inside as he is on the outside.
• We're not saying Keira Knightley has an eating disorder. We're only kindly requesting that you consider donating some of your spare change to the "Please, For The Love Of God, Buy This Woman A Big Mac" fund.
• Who tops the list of "Celebrity Lesbian Crushes?" (Hint: It's not Penelope Cruz).
• More signs that Britney Spears is no longer the irresistible sex symbol that she once was: creepy magic-man Criss Angel has pretty much done everything short of signing an affidavit and taking a lie detector test to dispel rumors that the two are romantically involved.
• Audrina and Lauren Conrard show off their beach bodies, but it's just not the same without Heidi's new funbags.
• Christian Bale has lady-hands! Either way, he's still infinitely cooler than Christian "Grabby Hands" Slater.
