But speculation about what will happen with Carrie and company? That’s about to hit the boiling point.

The second “Sex and the City” movie, due in theaters May 2010, began shooting in Morocco and New York this summer, drawing a flood of fans, a plethora of paparazzi and revving up rumors about potential plots. It’s no surprise “Sex” fiends are chomping at the bit — the 2008 movie smashed box-office records and reeled in $415 million worldwide.

Last week, aptly named British newspaper The Mirror zoomed in on a script Kim Cattrall toted onto the set, enlarged a page and revealed to readers spoilers about character Samantha Jones’ storyline.

And this week, Us Weekly’s out with a cover story disclosing all sorts of juicy details about what will go down in the “Sex” sequel (besides, of course, the obvious).

In her first interview following Michael Jackson’s sudden death in June, Janet Jackson has said that she has not watched any TV news since.

The singer, 43, told Harper’s Bazaar magazine that continuous coverage in the US, “will drive you crazy”, adding: “Not everyone is stone.”

She also told the magazine she was “really proud” of niece Paris, who spoke at Jackson’s memorial in the US.

Jackson’s death, following a cardiac arrest, has been ruled as homicide.

In the interview, Janet Jackson reveals that she last saw her brother less than six weeks before he died.

“We had so much fun that day,” she said, “We kept calling each other after and saying how great it was.”

She was working on a film in Atlanta when she got the call that her brother had died and immediately returned to Los Angeles.

‘Emotional eater’

Jackson also praises her mother, Katherine, saying: “I always wanted to have my mother’s strength, but I didn’t know if it was really there.”

Jackson, who has battled weight problems in the past, also revealed she had turned to comfort-eating to cope.

She said: “I can be an emotional eater. Of late, I have been doing that, yes.”

Earlier this week, it was revealed that Janet Jackson will perform a tribute to Michael Jackson at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards on 13 September.

“Incredible Hulk” star Edward Norton, second from left, has trained for a marathon with Maasai tribesmen in Kenya

Actor Edward Norton already wanted to be in better shape for his 40th birthday than he was on his 30th when the idea hit — why not join members of an African tribe famous for its runners and run the New York marathon?

“Incredible Hulk” star Edward Norton, second from left, has trained for a marathon with Maasai tribesmen in Kenya

Before he knew it, the star of “The Incredible Hulk” and “Fight Club” had signed on to the effort, despite never having run a marathon before.

“The idea picked up traction pretty quickly,” said Norton, who turned 39 in August. “Then, I was like, ‘Wait a minute. What have I just done?’”

The run is a benefit for the Maasai Wilderness Conservation Trust, an organization working to promote sustainable development while protecting the east African grasslands that the Maasai tribe calls home. Both the traditional tribe’s way of life and its environment have been threatened by rapid industrial development.

Norton discovered, and became a supporter of, the trust about 10 years ago during his first visit to Kenya, where he met founder Luca Belpietro.

“I was impressed at the way he was really genuinely working with the community to create value out of being good stewards of the land,” Norton said.

Belpietro will be one of nearly 30 runners joining Norton on the Nov. 1 marathon. Also running will be magician David Blaine and three Maasai tribesmen.

The Maasai are at the heart of Kenya’s long tradition of distance running. Norton said one of the runners, safari guide Parashi Ntanin, is so fast he could probably leave the rest of the group behind and run the race in less than 2½ hours.

Norton said he’s run as much as 15 miles twice during his training for the 26.2-mile marathon and that despite some leg and knee pains, he’s confident he’ll finish the endurance race.

“I’m really enjoying it,” he said after a workout Wednesday in New York. “I’m enjoying having a goal.”

A competitive rower at Yale, Norton said he’s experienced the so-called “runner’s high” during his training, which fans can follow on his Twitter account, @EdwardNorton.

“Running in the park, I got a taste of what people say about the New York marathon. There were people of every shape and size out there,” he said. “I really got a lift out of it.”

Norton’s latest film, the independently produced “Leaves of Grass,” is set to premiere this week at the Toronto International Film Festival and his company’s “By The People: The Election Of Barack Obama,” a documentary about President Obama’s historic campaign for the White House, debuts on HBO on November 3.

Police are searching for a Yale University graduate student and bride-to-be who disappeared and was last seen outside a school of medicine building.

Annie Le, 24, has not been seen by family, friends or co-workers since Tuesday, police say.

Co-worker Debbie Apuzzo told CNN affiliate WTNH-TV that Annie Le, 24, is scheduled to be married Sunday, and “her fiance hasn’t heard from her.”

“Annie Le’s purse containing her cell phone, credit cards and money were left in her office,” a Yale University Police Department news release said, adding that friends, family members and co-workers had not heard from her since Tuesday.

CNN has calls in to the Yale Office of Public Affairs, which is handling all Yale Police Department requests.

Bill Reiner in the FBI’s New Haven office said the university “asked for our assistance; we are assisting them. We are not getting into any details.”

Officer Joseph Avery of the New Haven Police Department said he believes New Haven police are working closely with Yale authorities, but he wasn’t certain in what capacity.

“Right now, it’s their case, and I can’t comment,” he said.

Apuzzo, an accountant in Yale’s Department of Pharmacology, told CNN affiliate WFSB that Le was conscientious, energetic and “very excited” about getting married.

Contacted via e-mail by CNN, Apuzzo declined to comment, saying her superiors had asked her to refer all media inquiries to the university’s public affairs office.

She did, however, forward a letter sent by Yale University Police Chief James Perrotti to all faculty, students and staff.

The letter states Yale police, the FBI, Connecticut State Police and New Haven police are investigating Le’s disappearance. Her friends, colleagues, family members and fiance are assisting police, the letter said.

“The State Police have searched the area of Ms. Le’s last known appearance with their bloodhounds; law enforcement officers are continuing to undertake detailed searches of the surrounding area; and security officials are reviewing images from closed-circuit cameras in the area,” the letter said.

Several media outlets reported that her fiance, Jonathan Widawsky, is a graduate student at Columbia University in New York. Widawsky could not be immediately reached.

A university surveillance photo showed Le was wearing a knee-length brown skirt, a bright-green short-sleeved T-shirt, brown shoes and a brown necklace.

She is 4-foot-11-inches tall, weighs 90 pounds and has shoulder-length brown hair, police said.

She was last seen outside the 120,000-square-foot Yale School of Medicine building on 10 Amistad St. The four-story building houses three of the school’s research programs. Le is a pharmacology graduate student.

According to the Yale police news release, Le had no known medical issues. She also does not have access to a vehicle, police said.

Anyone with information on Le’s disappearance can call university police at (203) 432-4400.

Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono says ties with Australia may be harmed by a war crimes inquiry into five journalists’ deaths in East Timor.

Australian police earlier announced the inquiry into the deaths of the “Balibo Five” which happened during Indonesia’s invasion of East Timor in 1975.

President Susilo said to reopen the case was not in the spirit of the relationship the two countries shared.

Indonesia maintains the journalists were killed accidentally in cross-fire.

This version of events has been accepted by successive Australian governments.

But in 2007 an Australian coroner found that the the two Australians, two Britons and a New Zealander were executed by Indonesian special forces in the border town of Balibo to stop them revealing details of an impending Indonesian invasion.

‘Past mistakes’

Mr Yudhoyono implied that Australian history showed it was not free from its own mistakes in the past.

“Frankly if we were to focus on the past, then we can look at the era of slavery, crimes against humanity, colonialism. All gross human rights violations,” he said.

“But a smart and wise nation looks forward. I am urging Australia’s foreign minister to manage this problem wisely so that it won’t disrupt our good relations with Australia.”

Indonesian foreign ministry spokesman Teuku Faizasyah told the BBC that Jakarta considered the matter closed and had no intention of reopening it.

He said an investigation would be difficult as many witnesses may no longer be alive.

The announcement of the Australian inquiry comes weeks after the release of a hard-hitting film, Balibo, which shows the five being murdered by Indonesian troops.

Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said Indonesia had been “surprised” by the police decision but played down talk of a rift.

“I believe we can manage these challenges,” he told Australian broadcaster ABC.

“There are bumps in the road with most relationships around the world and I think we’ll have to manage this one as well.”

Indonesia invaded East Timor after the territory descended into civil war following the end of Portuguese colonial rule.

At least 100,000 people are believed to have died as a result of Indonesia’s 25-year occupation. East Timor achieved formal independence in 2002.
