A man was arrested yesterday for posing as a federal agent in an attempt to get a job on Brad and Angelina's security team. The U.S. Secret Service was brought out for the arrest. Seriously, did this guy think he would get away with screwing with one of the most powerful Hollywood couples? TMZ reports:

A would-be "security consultant" was arrested today for allegedly impersonating a federal agent in order to try to secure the job of being a bodyguard for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Nelson Mercado, 46, of Torrance, Calif., is accused of telling Sunset Protective Services and Investigations that he was a special agent for the Department of Homeland Security and is also accused of specifically seeking "the security contract and hourly payment to provide security services" for Brangelina, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office in LA.

Mercado is also accused of using fake credentials and a "fraudulently registered" Ford Crown Victoria with tinted windows and a police light package. He was arrested today by Secret Service agents and, if convicted, faces a maximum penalty of three years in federal prison

Jessica was caught outside her home kissing one of her girlfriends goodbye. I'm sure this is totally innocent and nothing to start speculating about but we have heard about her getting wild and kissing ladies before. Hmm, is there something we should know Jessica?

The cast of The Last Kiss showed off last week in NYC, and walked down the red carpet this week in LA to premiere their new movie. The flick opens this weekend but we were lucky enough to catch a sneak peak. We were a bit surprised it wasn't just a fun romantic comedy based on the early trailers. There are plenty of laugh out loud moments but for the most part this movie is about wanting to kick Zach Braff's ass. You get so angry at his character and then somehow feel bad for him. Cute Rachel Bilson makes her movie debut and she's just as cute on the big screen as she is on The OC. Rachel has been getting lots of questions about her hot sex scene with Zach Braff. Here's more:

"When you are thrown into these situations where you have to pretend to have sex with a guy on camera, it gets a little awkward because you are [thinking] 'It's not cheating, yet I am making out with another guy!' And I would just say doing my first sex scene would have to be the most difficult thing ever," Bilson said.

"I was terrified!" Bilson admitted. "But Zach really helped me through it, and we're friends, so he made it very comfortable, and Tony made it very comfortable, and it was actually a really nice setting. And I'm happy I did it, because I can say I did my first sex scene, and I never have to do that again!"

My favorite part of the movie was the pep talk the father gives Zach Braff and he said, "You can't fail if you don't give up." I know it's cheesy like a few other lines in the movie but it stuck with me.

What's better than waking up to a little George Clooney with your coffee? George is doing his part to make the world a better place. Yesterday he requested aid from the U.N. to help stop the killings in Sudan's Darfur region. He visited the region with his father a few months ago and since then he has campaigned to stop the madness. Here's more:

"The United States has called it genocide," Clooney told U.N. Security Council members in New York City at what was called an informal briefing. "For you it's called ethnic cleansing. But make no mistake, it is the first genocide of the 21st century. And if it continues unchecked, it will not be the last."

He said he was sure some council members had "sensible reasons" for failing to use leverage to get peacekeepers on the ground, but said, "Whatever the reason, it's not good enough."

It's good to see George take his Hollywood power to help people out. And Happy Friday... lots more pics so read more

In a few weeks The Departed comes out and we can't wait to see this movie. Jack Nicholson, Matt Damon, Marky Mark and Leo. What a cast! Oh and did we mention it's a Scorsese film? Leo sounds a little like Ben Affleck these days when it comes to being private. He said:

"I really feel the most important part of being an actor is to keep his personal life to himself.... The less I know about an actor's daily activities, the less baggage I bring to his performance."

Ever since the Titanic craziness Leo has tried to lay-low. However, his acting and movie roles have gotten better each year. We look forward to checking this film out next month.
