Kathleen Turner has apologized to Nicolas Cage for “causing distress” by accusing him of drunk driving and dog theft in her new autobiography. Nicolas Cage began libel proceedings against her in London’s High Court last week after claiming her new book Send Yourself Roses was full of false claims about him.
In the book, Turner alleges that Cage went to great lengths to disobey his director uncle Francis Ford Coppola on the set of Peggy Sue Got Married, adding he found himself in trouble with the police while filming.
Turner insists that she had no intention for the contents of her book to upset Cage, or anybody else, and is deeply sorry for any hurt caused.
She says, “I guess what I can say is I’m truly sorry if I caused distress or harm, because one thing is for sure - I never, ever intended to do that. This is what I remember, these are my thoughts and (they were) certainly not intended to damage anyone else.”
So she’s basically saying that she wasn’t lying or anything, but she’s sorry if Nicolas took offense. I dunno, it sounds like a publicity stunt for her book if you ask me.

Nicolas Cage is suing Kathleen Turner over allegations that she made against him in her autobiography.
A spokesperson for the actor confirmed that libel proceedings have been issued against Turner at the High Court in London.
In her new book, Send Yourself Roses, Turner alleges that Cage caused problems during Peggie Sue Got Married in a bid to prove that he won the role on his own merit rather than because his uncle was the director.
She also claims that the actor was arrested for drink driving and had stolen a Chihuahua.
Cage has refuted the claims previously, saying that the credibility of Turner’s autobiography and memory is at stake.

Nicolas Cage has snapped up a $8 million house in the picturesque English city of Bath, adding to the actor’s increasing property portfolio.
Cage, 43, uses Hancock Park Real Estate to negotiate his deals worldwide, with the stunning house in Bath the latest on his list.
The home, which is a Georgian townhouse on The Circus, the famous and highly prestigious curved street in Bath, boasts an array of rooms, a grand staircase and an indoor swimming pool.
The 9,000 sq ft house also has a 30ft kitchen with a large garden and is within walking distance of the historic city’s beautiful centre.
However, Cage is not expected to live in the home, despite splashing out $8 million for it. One resident in the street told the Daily Mail: “We’re told he has bought it, but don’t think we’ll see him here.
“Our daughter saw him in the Circus six months ago.”

Nicolas Cage is raging about one early review for his new movie Ghost Rider after a reporter for magazine Entertainment Weekly suggested the Oscar winner had no right being in a comic book adaptation. The Moonstruck star is so angry about the personal attack, he’s urging fans to stop buying the “tabloid” and opt for an alternative - with a horoscope.
He fumes, “There was a blurb in Entertainment Weekly that said very condescendingly, ‘We get a kick out of watching Academy Award winners being in movies that they have no business being seen in.’ I thought, ‘Well, OK, that’s really shallow thinking because they can’t get outside their own box. They don’t understand the concept of what I would say is art.’
Entertainment Weekly is the kind of magazine that is very condescending and they think in a very narrow box and they always have. So that’s why I would recommend that if you want to really get your information and know what movies to go see I wouldn’t resort to that particular publication. “Entertainment Weekly is more like a tabloid. So, if you’re going to get a tabloid, get The National Enquirer because, at least, they have a horoscope. I mean, why spend the extra dollar getting Entertainment Weekly?” Cage jokes the publication takes itself far too seriously: “People like Entertainment Weekly don’t want to take the beret off of their head and stop being self-important and pretentious.”

From ET:
Sources tell ET that NICOLE KIDMAN was taken to a hospital after being involved in an accident on the set of her latest film, ‘The Invasion.’
The actress and her co-star, child actor JACKSON BOND, were shooting a chase scene when a stunt driver lost control while turning a corner on slick pavement. The street had been wet down with water before the scene. Their Jaguar crashed into a pole and hit a garbage can.
Two crew members who were strapped to the top of the Jag were also involved, but no injuries were reported.
Nicole and the other performers were taken to a local hospital to be checked for injuries.
