DEAR STACY: Every time I sit down to watch TV, there is Jennifer Lopez in yet another commercial. Any idea how much she's making from all that? — Scoooter

DEAR SCOOOTER: Billboard pegged her cash flow at an astonishing $40 million-plus a couple years back, including $17.5 million from "American Idol," $13.3 million from Coty fragrances, $6 million from L'Oreal Paris, and a five percent take on her Kohl's fashion line. Add to that her new Vegas show and the new long-term contract with Epic Records that she signed last month, plus films and other work, and you certainly can't say she's going to have any money trouble for the foreseeable future.

DEAR STACY: Can you tell me the name of the song used in the Honda commercial where the car goes from the designer's imagination out into the world? Cool song! — Jeff R., Chandler, Arizona

DEAR JEFF: That's "Walking on a Dream" by Empire of the Sun.

DEAR STACY: Some friends were talking about Nicollette Sheridan, and I said I believe she was related to the late "Kojak" star Telly Savalas. Can you confirm? — Laura, Redding, California

DEAR LAURA: Savalas, who died of prostate cancer in 1994, had a son, Nick, with Nicollette's mother Sally Sheridan. Therefore, Savalas' son is Nicollette's half-brother.

The "Kojak" star was also the godfather of Jennifer Aniston.

DEAR STACY: What happened to the young man who played on J.J. on "Good Times"? - PaulI2

DEAR PAULI2: Jimmie Walker, the funny man who ruled the pop culture scene with his "Dy-no-mite!" catch phrase in the 1970s, still shows up on TV occasionally — on shows like "Scrubs," "Everybody Hates Chris" and "George Lopez." He's also done political talk radio and TV shows. At 68, his primary focus is standup. He plays clubs and corporate gigs all around the country.
