Box office weekend… Kevin Costner’s estranged wife moves out… Cardi B throws microphone… Ariana Grande giving Ethan Slater ‘space’… and Is Hailey Bieber pregnant?
“Barbie” earned another $93M here at home and another $122.2M from 70 markets overseas this weekend. That puts the movie’s worldwide take about $774.5M. At this pace, it could cross the billion dollar mark as early as next weekend. This would make Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” the first female-directed Hollywood movie in history to earn a billion dollars. “Barbie” is also Warner Bros’ second-biggest movie of all time behind “Joker.” “Oppenheimer” holds steady at No. 2 with another $46.2M. Worldwide, the movie has earned $400.4M. Coming in third is the debut of Disney’s “Haunted Mansion” with $24M. “Sound of Freedom” is fourth with $12.4M and “Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One” rounds out the top five with $10.7M.

Moving trucks showed up at Kevin Costner’s ocean-front home on Friday because he estranged wife Christine Baumgartner had to be out by TODAY. But Christine didn’t have far to go. She’s apparently staying in a smaller house on the property that is used as staff quarters. A source said this is a temporary solution until Christine can find a new home. Kevin wasn’t there to supervise the move. He took 3 kids, ages 16, 14 and 13, to his home in Aspen for a little vacation while their mom handled the move. But he did make a very detailed list of what Christine CAN’T take with her when she leaves. In fact, Christine gave Kevin’s attorney photos of the items she planned to remove.

Cardi B was feeling very feisty this weekend. She was performing at Drai’s Nightclub in Vegas Friday night and at the end of her set, as confetti rained down from the ceiling, Cardi chucked her microphone at the DJ. Reportedly, she was ticked off that he kept cutting her tracks short during her performance. Then at Drai’s Beachclub on Saturday, as she was performing “Bodak Yellow” a woman in the crowd threw her drink on Cardi, who hauled off and threw her mic at the woman! Security jumped in the crowd to retrieve the microphone and escort the woman from the premises.

Ethan Slater is currently in NYC trying to end his 5-year marriage to his high school sweetheart, Lilly Jay. According to court records viewed by Life & Style, Ethan filed for a contested divorce on Wednesday, July 26. The next day, Lilly told “Page Six” that Ariana isn’t “a girl’s girl” and that her family is “just collateral damage.” Apparently, Ariana doesn’t like that assessment of her character and she is now reportedly giving Ethan “space” to work out his divorce.

A lot of Hailey Bieber fans (do they have a nickname?) believe she’s pregnant, but isn’t quite ready to share the happy news. They believe she’s been going to great lengths to cover up her tummy in recent weeks. In addition to wearing baggier clothes, when she is wearing something more form-fitting, Hailey appears to be blocking her belly with a giant iPad or oversized bags. And when she backstage at a recent Drake concert, a fan snapped a photo of Hailey leaning against a wall with her hands cradling her stomach, which did appear to be protruding just a bit. So is it a baby belly or a food baby? Justin and Hailey will celebrate their 5th wedding anniversary this September.
