Do people mistake you for Owen? All the time. My own mother does it on the phone. Sometimes I just let it slide.

What’s it like dating Kate Hudson? Uhhhhh.

I’m kidding—I know she’s dating your brother. She’s a good kisser. I worked with her in “Alex & Emma.”

Does Kate think you’re a better kisser? I don’t know, man. I haven’t asked her. I think they’re actually kind of in love, so I try to stay away from it. But Owen has a lot of soccer games over at this house nowadays. And Kate is a real good athlete. She plays soccer, too.

Who’s the best player? Probably Andrew, my older brother.

I didn’t know you had another brother. He’s 42. Owen is, like, 38. I’m the youngest.

The three of you could start a band. Like the Bacon Brothers.

Except they’re not very good. I really like this band Kings of Leon. It’s three brothers from Tennessee, and they’re sons of a Pentecostal preacher.

How did you end up with Eva Mendes as your girlfriend in this movie? I was at a party one time, and I was looking at her across the room. Robert Towne, who wrote “Chinatown,” introduced us. He said, “Who are you looking at?” And I said, “I’m looking at that girl.”

Were you looking at her for your movie—or because she was hot? Both.

Are you dating anyone? I am.

What’s her name? It’s just a regular girl. You probably don’t know who she is.

Where did you meet? At a party.

But it’s not Eva Mendes? No, it’s not.


Please, No One Say ‘Reshoot!’ Some people will do anything to get on TV. Joey Buttafuoco and the “Long Island Lolita” herself (née Amy Fisher) are shopping a reality-TV show together, 15 years after she shot his wife. Which got us thinking: what other war-torn lovers would we like to see reunited on the small screen? We played network executive and dreamed up these pilots:

D’oh! Moment of the Week Does Sylvester Stallone look a tad, shall we say, plus-size? It’s not because he’s been skipping his workouts. Last week Stallone, 60, pleaded guilty in an Australian court to bringing illegal growth hormones into the country. His lawyer said that he needed the hormones for medical reasons. But 52 vials? “It was just a minor misunderstanding,” Stallone told reporters. “I just didn’t understand some of the rules here.” Stallone will be sentenced this week, though he won’t face any jail time. Too bad. Paris could use a bodyguard.
