FEATURES

Whatever Blows Your Hair Back
Chris O'Donnell prefers his quiet life in Chicago to the sturm und drang of young Hollywood, but the rising star is happy to sound off about working with Val Kilmer, what it's like to read about his romance in the tabloids, and why some male celebrities frequent hookers.

Young Hollywood Hit Lists
A treasure trove of top tens to help you make your way through the booby-trapped jungle of Tinseltown's younger stars, comers and soon-to-be-goners.

Isaac Does the Oscars
Fashion and screen star Isaac Mizrahi dresses up Young Hollywood for the Academy Awards, explains why the next big fashion thing for young stars will be neatness, and, while he's at it, announces "If Stanley Kubrick calls me, I'm all his. Look what he did for Sue Lyon."

Melancholy Baby
Eighteen-going-on-thirty, Edward Furlong talks about having had a rough life, not having done drugs, never having gone clubbing with Leonardo DiCaprio, and having gotten in Before and After, "such a great part that you don't even have to act to look great on film."

Hot as a Pistol
Samantha Mathis loses her cool over John Travolta, and waxes rhapsodic about working with guns.

Feeling Fearless
Riding high on the improbable success of Pulp Fiction, Danny DeVito's company, Jersey Films, set out to corner cutting-edge talent. If improbability is the game, they couldn't do better than let Steven Baigelman, who'd never held a camera, direct Feeling Minnesota, the first script he ever sold. And, as if that weren't improbable enough, they got Keanu Reeves to star in the film.

Playing Dumb
On the beloved TV hit "Friends," Matt LeBlanc plays an I.Q.-challenged actor. In his screen debut, he plays a pitcher who learns life lessons from a monkey. But as we all know by now, stupid is as stupid does.
