Courtney Love says she's selling her Seattle home because her late husband's fans keep showing up to look at it. Love and Kurt Cobain bought the house just before the rock star of Nirvana fame killed himself three years ago. Love and her daughter will move to Los Angeles, where she recently co- starred in the film "The People vs. Larry Flynt." 
The upcoming disaster film "The Flood" has apparently dried up, at least for now. Paramount Pictures has decided not to release the movie this May but to hold it until fall or later. Morgan Freeman and Christian Slater star in the disaster drama that was supposed to be one of the big summer releases.
Actress Della Reese is writing an autobiography. Reese, who stars in the TV series "Touched by an Angel," is calling the book "Angels Along the Way." The book is due in October.
"Wings" co-star Steven Weber won't be out of work when the sitcom ends its final season this spring. Weber has signed to star in a feature film tentatively titled "Sour Grapes." It's being written and directed by the co-creator of "Seinfeld," Larry David. Shooting begins in May.
They starred in "First Wives Club." Now Goldie Hawn, Diane Keaton and Bette Midler are getting an award together. They'll be honored in June with the Women in Film Crystal Award for helping to enhance the role of women in the entertainment industry.
It's all over but the counting for the Oscars. Oscar ballots were due Tuesday and will be tallied under strict security measures. The winners will be announced at Monday night's Academy Awards show. Winning, by the way, is worth lots of money. Daily Variety estimates a Best Picture win adds an extra $104 million in worldwide business.
Move over Michael Jackson. The Eagles are about to fly higher. The group's greatest hits album from the '70s has passed the 24 million copies mark, tying Jackson's "Thriller." The Eagles' CD is expected to surpass "Thriller" in sales sometime this year. 
"Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves" goes on store shelves Wednesday, but unlike most home video releases, this one didn't play in theaters. This is the first live-action Disney movie to be released directly to video. The two previous episodes starring Rick Moranis were first released on the big screen, then shrunk to home video size.
