March 21 -- Whitney Houston's next number may be 007. The singer is set to make her return to the big screen as a Bond girl.

According to London's Sun, Bobby Brown's wife has agreed in principle to co-star with Pierce Bronsnan in the next Bond movie.

The project still needs the blessing of Dana Broccoli, the widow of famed Bond producer Albert Broccoli. With that, filming on the yet-untitled flick will start later this year.

Houston starred with Denzel Washington in The Preacher's Wife and Kevin Costner in The Bodyguard.

Tommy Lee Ties Knot

Tommy Lee Jones is officially off the market again. The 54-year-old Oscar-winning actor tied the knot on Monday in San Antonio with 36-year-old Dawn Laurel.

The two met in 1995 on the set of the Jones movie The Good Old Boys. Laurel is a photographer.

"It wasn't a big to-do," said District Judge Fred Biery, who performed the ceremony. He wouldn't reveal any details, saying the couple didn't want to divulge info because they are private people.

This is the third go-round with married life for Jones.

The Gladiator's Tootsies

How's this for a toe job: Russell Crowe is being honored by the Epsom Salt Industry Council for his beautiful feet.

Anyone who has seen Gladiator knows this guy looks great in sandals. Now Epsom is hitching its tail to Crowe's remarkable body by awarding him with the company's version of an Oscar.

"There were times when Crowe would connect with his feet in such an intimate way it was quite moving," said Mark Roberts, a company spokesman. "I think the audience could really feel the feet-heart-brain bond taking place."

Roberts added that without soles, actors can't have soul. "Where would any of them be without feet?"
