Matthew Fox is Getting Out of Town

trix — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 19:32:00 GMT

I'm so excited for "Lost" to start up again, aren't you? It feels like it has been a long off season for the show.

In between filming episodes of "Lost" Matthew is concentrating on passing his love of cars to his son Byron. Matthew has always loved cars and was tickled pink that his son wanted to dress up as Racer X for Halloween last year.

That's funny, I love cars too! We have so much in common, it's a sign. *sigh*

I hope that he is passing on his love of cars to his daughter as well. I loved working on cars with my dad.

Matthew and his family are planning on moving to Oregon soon. He and his wife, Margherita want to raise their kids in the mountain air and be closer to his family.

They must be getting island fever by now.

Art Alexakis, best known as the frontman of Everclear, welcomed a new daughter. Art is a dad for the second time (he has a 14-year-old daughter named Annabella Rose). The baby's name is Arizona Star, not to be confused with the daily paper in Tucson.

Says Alexakis:

Arizona and Vanessa [my fiancee] are doing great. We came home from the hospital yesterday and Anna has been amazing with the baby...she is so into her little sister!

Okay...the name -- Arizona is where Vee and I met and lived while she was finishing up her degrees, and Star is for my mom (Eleanor means shining light).

Tom Cruise Sends Kids to Crazy Camp

Expo Say is reporting that Tom Cruise has sent his kids, not Suri, but you know, the other kids he adopted with Nicole Kidman that nobody ever talks about, to a Scientology camp in Oregon. Figures it is in Oregon, they aren't even allowed to pump their own gas there.

This little ditty seems to suggest that Isabella and Conner aren't having as much fun as one would hope:

Hello Mudder - Hello Fadder
Here I am at - Camp Scientology
And you owe me- an apology
And they say that we'll meet Xenu in the morn-in'

I went hiking - with John Travolta
His weave and hairline- are revolt-a
You remember - Kirstie Alley
She ate everything not moving in the galley

Take me home, oh Mudder, was I a burden
Take me home, I miss Keith Urban
Don't leave me, out on the lam
Where I might get caught and eaten by a clam

Meatballs it ain't.
