It's hard to get too excited about how much the highest-paid actor in Hollywood gets when you  hear how much less the highest-paid female actor gets. That and more, in this evening's Pop Bits:

Nobody may have actually liked, understood or even seen that last Transformers movie (at least not in the United States, but Marky Mark still got paid big-time. In sad but not surprising news, Wahlberg's annual haul bests Hollywood's highest-paid woman, Emma Stone, by $42 million.

Louise Linton, married to Secretary of the Treasury Steve Mnuchin, made a regrettable move when she incurred criticism for positing a photo of Mnuchin getting off a plane, and decided to respond with, basically: "I’m rich.
