Katie Holmes narrowly avoided serious injury after a car caught fire on a movie set. The actress, who is currently on location in Australia filming "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark," was reportedly shooting a scene in the vehicle when the battery exploded last weekend.

Katie was left shaken after dashing from the car just before it burst into flames.

Angelina Jolie has topped Forbes magazine's annual list of Hollywood's Top-Earning Actresses. The "Salt" star raked in an impressive $27 million between June 2008 and June 2009.

Angelina beat her partner Brad Pitt's ex-wife Jennifer Aniston, who came second in the list with earnings of $25 million.

Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise are to stay in a $27,500-a-night suite when they move to Australia. The Hollywood couple - who are relocating to Melbourne next month while the actress films new movie "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" - will be the guests of fellow Scientologist James Packer at his hotel Crown Towers.

They are expected to take up the entire 39th floor of the five-star hotel.

Peaches Geldof is set to become a Scientologist. The 20-year-old socialite - daughter of Boomtown Rats rocker Sir Bob Geldof - was seen leaving a Scientology Celebrity Center in Hollywood with documents about the bizarre sci-fi cult.

According to the papers Peaches was holding, the center "takes care of those who entertain, fashion and take care of the world."

Katie Holmes is to perform on a TV dance contest. The 30-year-old actress is in talks to appear in Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance" - which sees a group of dancers compete for a cash prize and the title of America's Favorite Dancer - which would involve her doing a one-off routine.

A source said: "She's met with judge and producer Nigel Lythgoe and everyone hopes she appears on this season or next season of the show."
