How'd It Get Burned This Week? (Nov. 9, 2009)

With Nic Cage's financial situation in dire peril, we take a look back at some things that Nic has once owned - and is probably selling now. Plus, Nic on SNL! (sort of)

Associated Content tells us that Nic is selling yet another of his properties - a castle he owns. The article does not state how many other castles he owns.

With an opening paragraph so good it could have been written by The Top Pop Stop ("Sadly, the majority of headlines that Cage has been generating these days have not been for his punching prowess while wearing a bear suit or his intense hatred of bees but rather his recent stretch of bad financial luck."), New York Magazine takes a peek at some of the odder things Nic has owned. Action Comics #1? Check. Dinosaur skull? Check. Shrunken heads? Ch--what?!

Moviefone adds "owl" to the list. Eva Mendes, costar in Nic's new "Bad Lieutenant," apparently admires the owl: "I said, 'You know what, it would be so cool to own an owl,'" Mendes says. "He's like, 'I had an owl for a couple years.' He's that guy that had an owl for a couple years."

Finally, Nic got satirized on Saturday Night Live. Host Taylor Swift played Kate Gosselin opposite Andy Samberg as Nic with both guest-starring on "The View." We leave you now with... the video, courtesy of NBC and The Examiner.
