- <p> Life is good for tyke turned tycoon MACAULAY CULKIN. The
- sixth-grader reportedly earned $1 million for starring in the
- upcoming My Girl, which pairs him with ANNA CHLUMSKY for his
- first onscreen kiss. "It was nothing," he says of the smooch,
- but the same cannot be said of Culkin's last film, Home Alone,
- a huge hit. His negotiations with 20th Century Fox, hot to make
- a Home Alone sequel, offer insight into Hollywood's law of
- supply and demand: Culkin demanded big bucks to star in Alone
- Again, and Fox agreed to supply them (a reported $4.5 million).
- After that, Mac may make another bundle for playing that wealthy
- comic-book kid Richie Rich. What a stretch.
