Ever wondered what an Abercrombie ad all grown up would look like? Well, it's the February issue of Vanity Fair.

Three of Hollywood's leading male actors, Daniel Craig, George Clooney and Matt Damon cover the latest issue of VF and look like they stepped out of a Burberry ad, tumbled into a log cabin, made a pit stop at a Mad Men inspired cocktail party, and then jumped on a motorcycle before arriving at the Vanity Fair photo shoot. It's everything rugged and sexy and exactly perfect.
In an attempt to explain why he’s not Jason Bourne anymore, Matt Damon made sure to ruin the career of at least one person in Hollywood.

In a recent chat with GQ magazine, Damon said that screenwriter Tony Gilroy was phoning it in with The Bourne Ultimatum script.

“It was unreadable,” Damon said. “This is a career-ender.”

In case you had any doubts, Bradley Cooper has just been named the Sexiest Man Alive. Personally, I don't get it, but then again, my childhood crush was Weird Al.

People magazine has bestowed the 2011 title on the Hangover actor, and here's why. Well, first, there's the obvious--women think he's hot as hell. But he also rides a motorcycle, loves his mom, and remember that video of him speaking French? I think he gave a collective orgasm to everyone who saw that. Even straight men. It was pretty good French.

When Cooper learned of his new title, he said: "First thing I thought was, my mother is going to be so happy."

Cooper continued: "I think its really cool that a guy who doesn’t look like a model can have this [title].
Somebody get this motherf-ckin' money in my motherf-ckin' pockets!

Samuel L. Jackson has appeared in over 100 movies, which have raked in a total of $7.4 billion. This is according to the Guinness World Records. So I guess his saying yes to every role paid off. Literally. He has officially been named the highest grossing actor of all time.

Jackson beat out Tom Cruise, Will Smith and Matt Damon. The honor comes from Jackson making movies like Jurassic Park, which made $914 million. And he knew better than to say no to Star Wars. His portrayal of Mace Windu in the Star Wars prequels helped the franchise rake in $2 billion. Star Wars nerds helped, too.

In comparison, Matt Damon's movies have grossed 2.062 billion, with his highest grossing being
George Clooney and Ryan Gosling star opposite one another in the new film, "The Ides of March" and since Clooney has been twice named People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive (in 1997 and 2006) he thinks it's time to train a new generation of sexy men.

While the other Ryan (Ryan Reynolds) is the current titleholder for People's Sexiest Man Alive, Clooney thinks Ryan Gosling has what it takes to beat-out Reynolds and become the sexiest Ryan in Hollywood.

"Listen, Brad (Pitt) and Matt (Damon) and I are going to sit him down and go through some of the things he should do for the campaign," jokes Clooney last night at the premiere of his movie.
Is there anything more frightening than a story about a global pandemic? Okay, it actually happening is a little more terrifying, but the public loves a good scary movie, and it looks like Contagion fits the bill.

The movie will make its world premiere in about a week at the Venice Film Festival, and a little over a week after, it will premiere in the U.S.

Directed by Steven Soderbergh, the flick is already getting good buzz. The first pictures were eerie, with Gwyneth Paltrow's character looking completely pale and aghast. Now Soderbergh has released three more photos...

Ashamed of your middle name? Well, don’t feel too bad, it could be Columcille. Yep, that’s Mel Gibson’s middle name. No wonder the guy is so angry all the time. He sounds like he’s been named after a cough medicine.

Sometimes celebs change their names, and with these bizarre monikers, who can blame them? Check out these celebrity middle names, and see whether they’re myth or fact!

Matt Paige Damon: Fact! It was his mother’s middle name, but I doubt childhood bullies cared.

Justin Marie Bieber: Myth! Bieber’s middle name is actually Drew. His girlfriend Selena Gomez’s middle name is Marie, however.

Star Bourbon Jones: Myth! But that’d be an awesome middle name, right? Star’s name is actually Starlet Marie Jones. She was born to be a diva.
Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake were in Moscow promoting Friends With Benefits, when Kunis schooled a reporter in Russian.

During a Russian-speaking press conference, reporters asked Kunis questions, as Russian is the actress's native tongue. Timberlake sat by listening on some sort of translator thingee, and a reporter asked Mila why Justin is making movies instead of music now. Kunis quickly defended her co-star, saying "Why movies? Why not? What kind of question is that? Why are you here?"

Socrates and Aristotle. Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking. Matt Damon and random cameraman.

While being interviewed by a journalist at a rally in Washington DC, Matt Damon stuck to his guns about a demanding and grueling profession: teaching.

The reporter compared the careers of teachers to those of actors, saying job security is the only reason they’re motivated to do their job. Damon responded:

“You think job security is what makes me work hard? I want to be an actor, it's not an incentive.”

You gotta start somewhere.

Many of our most iconic Hollywood stars started off small. They say there are no small parts, only small actors, but you gotta admit—playing Jason Bourne is a lot more appealing than playing Frightened Inmate #2. Here are ten celebrities and the first acting gigs they landed.

George Clooney: Roseanne. It was worth sitting through Roseanne Barr’s screeching voice to catch a glimpse of Booker Brooks, played by George Clooney. He’s praised for his rugged good looks and salt-and-pepper hair, but George Clooney looked damn good in his younger days, too.

Matt Damon: Mystic Pizza. If you think this movie is about some sort of supernatural, magical fast food, you’re going to be sorely disappointed. But one redeeming quality? Matt Damon and his only line
