• Buy your celebrity bobblehead today! Or just stare at pictures of Nicole Richie and Rachel Zoe instead.

"Penelope Cruz uses her purse as protection from the rain as she walks through the streets of New York City with actor Javier Bardem."
Translation: A crazed Penelope Cruz turns her purse into a deadly weapon and tries to kill an annoying Tim Allen lookalike, who had the audacity to ask Cruz why she was wearing "mom jeans."
What's even more embarrassing than wearing a thong bikini on the beach and getting snapped by photographers?
Answer: Copping a holier than thou attitude with all the other celebrity weeklies, and then triumphantly mistaking Penelope Cruz for her non-famous younger sister.
Oops.
Though, in Janice Min's defense, she's not the first person to get the Cruz sisters mixed up.* She's just the first one to do it after getting all uppity and self-righteous about her trashy, factually incorrect and "it's a lawsuit waiting to happen" tabloid.
*According to her Wikipedia entry, Cruz has "a younger brother, Eduardo, a singer, and a younger sister, Monica, who closely resembles her: a similarity exploited for some Spanish TV ads."

The third celebrity in a string of Suri Cruise spotters has come forward. Tom Cruise's ex, Penelope Cruz, is the latest to lay claim that she's seen the baby — that little Suri, does in fact, exist. After Leah Remini informed the world that Suri has eyes, and Jada Pinkett Smith, called her "gorgeous," we now have a third account. She's "special."
"I met Suri. She is really beautiful. She is really special," the 32-year-old actress told reporters Thursday at the U.K. premiere of her new film, Volver. "One of the most beautiful babies I have ever seen. And I am extremely happy for them. They are really happy and doing great."
Hmmm. This could be one of those "lost in translation" things, but somebody should tell Ms. Cruz that when you call something "special' it's often a nice way of saying "not normal." Not that there's anything wrong with that … but, maybe Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes don't want everyone to know there's something "special" about their kid.
At least she has the power of getting B-LIst celebs back in the press, though.
Penelope Cruz: I've Met Suri [People]

• Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are coming to America! You know what that means? People's going to run the baby on the cover before the other paparazzi can jump them in the airport. [National Ledger]
• Andy Pemberton is, once again, out at Spin. Or he's back at the beach. Or sipping margaritas at SoHo House. Or maybe he never existed in the first place? [FBNY]
• The world welcomes another little Jessica Simpson into our hearts. No, Jess is not having Adam Levine's baby. But her little sister is morphing into her more and more by the minute. [Mollygood]
• Ben Smith is now 'struggling for relevance.' Ouch. Well, then again, nobody really is relevent in this world if they don't work for the Observer. [NYO]
• Case in point, Rebecca Dana breaking even more news on a Friday night. (Go home, people!) Diane Sawyer is unleashing the wrath over at ABC and execs aren't handing it very well. [NYO]
• Madonna is so over exploiting Britney Spears and has moved on to ruin the life of Lindsay Lohan. Nice, Madge. Like the kid doesn't have enough issues. [Page Six]
• Yay, Matthew McConaughey is single again. Wait, is it weird that we're more excited about Penelope Cruz being single? [People]

Julia Roberts might be the $20 million woman on the big screen, but Catherine Zeta-Jones takes that title (and dollar figure) when it comes to the small screen. Though Mrs. Michael Douglas isn't doing Lifetime MOWs — she's doing T-Mobile, and raking in the cash. On Monday, Adweek's Gail Schiller is going to break down celebrity endorsement deals by the numbers. Perfect timing, too, because the high we got off seeing Bruce Willis shilling for a Japenese fuel company is starting to wane.
After the jump, the listicle you're looking for of the top earners in the sell out category — many of whom you'll only find in international ads. Wouldn't want Americans to know how they make $2 million in a day.
