Paris Hilton has succumbed to the condition all people give into when not getting laid - sex with the ex that turns into a relationship rerun. I'm amazed she's doing the backslide - I hear she really likes to move forward. This is indeed the latest - Paris and Doug "Douchebag" Reinhardt are back together! No real surprise - they both have pretty low standards. Doug must have been waiting by the phone this whole time. Now the meaning in his life has returned. How lovely. Of course the reunited lovers have taken to Twitter to let the world know of their sexual habits joy. I hope the second time around sticks for these two. Everything finds it's own level and I think this couple has definitely found theirs! Congratulations.
Wow, who knew a little casting decision would turn out to be one of the main drama events of the summer? Sounds like the vampire swap might end up costing everyone involved time and money! Despite the sharply worded statement from Summit Entertainment, Rachelle LeFevre doesn't appear to be backing down and it seems the two parties might be meeting in court. Details:
[In short, Lefevre wants her money. Summit is arguing she's
due nothing because the studio insists she's in breach of contract for signing
on for the indie flick Barney's Version. "Rachelle's contract says she's allowed to do smaller
projects like Barney's Version," one source said.
Meanwhile, her Twilight and New Moon costars are
"devastated," said another source. "As nice and lovely as Bryce [Dallas Howard]
is, they feel like a family member has been taken from them."
But don't expect them to go public with too much anti-Summit
talk. ... Lefevre's dismissal sends a very strong message--or warning--not to mess
with the studio. Sources also tell me that shortly after Summit announced
Lefevre's dismissal, the rest of the cast was told not to elaborate on the
circumstances to the media, beyond repeating that it was due to a scheduling
conflict.]
Nothing like freedom of speech - or lack thereof! Was a deal struck with Bryce Dallas Howard's team or is this Rachelle's blunder? I'm confident, despite the studio lockdown, that we'll still learn more...

Well, that didn't take long! The woman pregnant with Jude Law's fourth child has been tracked down. Hold on to your hats folks - she's a 24 year old aspiring actress and model! What a shock. I don't know what I was expecting, but after Jude's fling with the nanny I was kinda thinking maybe he'd moved on to waitresses. She is, of course, beautiful. In fact, she kind of looks like a dark-haired Sienna Miller. Oh Jude, you scamp! More, via Bitten & Bound:
[Florida model and aspiring actress Samantha Burke is
pregnant and actor Jude Law is the baby daddy.According to her Babies 'R' Us registry, the child,
reportedly a girl who will be named Sophia, is due on October 6.
Burke, 24, had a brief affair with Law in late 2008 that
resulted in the pregnancy.According to Burke's attorney, "Ms. Burke can confirm that she did in
fact have a relationship with Mr. Law and that she has informed Mr. Law that
she is expecting his child later this fall.Since informing Mr. Law of the pregnancy, he has been
nothing but responsive and supportive of Ms. Burke and the pregnancy."]
It's nice that lawyers have been consulted and everything has already been sussed out before the story broke. How tidy! Welcome to the spotlight shortcut, Samantha. I have a feeling we'll be hearing more from you... How many times do you think her name has been Googled today? Click here for a picture of an obviously preggers Samantha, courtesy of TMZ.
Hey, what's a network television station to do but roll with the punches? It's not like they created this situation, they're only filming what's happening. That's the stance TLC is taking regarding the Gosselins - and you'd better believe network execs are secretly thrilled. More:
[Pizza, camping, and maybe dates, according to TLC president
Eileen O'Neill, who read a statement about the reality show at Television
Critics Associated Panel in Pasadena, Calif. today. "Over the last four years and through 100 episodes,
we've captured this remarkable family's entertaining chaos," O'Neill said.
"Viewers fell in love and the show developed a passionate, loyal
following. But this past spring, life intervened and the family's
status changed. It was certainly something we never expected, nor planned to
have happen. But this has resulted in unprecedented television," she
continued.
"You're still going to see two parents that love their
kids, but you'll be seeing them parenting separately," she said.
"You'll see what it's like when Kate has to put up a tent for a backyard
camping experience by herself. Or, you'll see Jon trying to cook up a pizza for
the kids."
Viewers will see Jon and Kate date, O'Neill said. "As far as new people and places that may be cycling
into Jon and Kate's life, we are taking it on a case-by-case basis," she
said.]
Well, this is awesome news. I'd really like some clarity on Jon's behavior. But only on a television appropriate case-by-case basis... not! What I'm really looking forward to is that touching moment when Jon bakes a frozen pizza for his kids. Maybe it'll be a designer Ed Hardy pie...
The torches have been lit and the villagers are gathered at the gate. If Katherine Heigl knows what's good for her, she'll hire herself a kickass P.R. firm - immediately. Heigl had a brief moment in the sun where it looked like she might be the second coming of romantic comedies. And then she opened her mouth. Now it's de rigueur to slam Katherine - to the point that even nice guy gurus Seth Rogen and Judd Apatow have joined in. Details:
[Seth Rogen and Knocked Up director Judd Apatow are still
miffed over former costar Katherine Heigl knocking the hit blockbuster.
Speaking to Vanity Fair in 2007, Heigl famously remarked
that the comedy "paints the women as shrews," while the men look
"lovable." She added, "It was hard for me to love the
movie." But Rogen says he doesn't see how Heigl's new comedy, The Ugly
Truth, makes women look even better. Added Apatow, "I hear there's a scene
where she's wearing underwear with a vibrator in it, so I'd have to see
if that was uplifting for women." Apatow figured Heigl was "probably
was doing six hours of interviews and kissing everyone's ass, and then just got
tired and slipped a little bit" when she made the remarks to Vanity Fair.
Regardless, Rogen said, "I didn't slip and I was doing
f****** interviews all day too ... I didn't say s***!"
Even more baffling, said Apatow, "We never had a
'fight' with Heigl while filming. Seth always says, it doesn't make
any sense [because] she improvised half her s***," Apatow said, adding
that she "could not have been cooler." Rogen said he doesn't feel bad
since Heigl seems to run her mouth and most people, including Grey's Anatomy
staff.
"I gotta say it's not like we're the only people she
said some bat **** crazy things about," he said. "That's kind of her
bag now."]
Ouch. Rogen and Apatow have finally thrown the gauntlet. In case Heigl's not getting the message, I'm gonna do her a favor and put it in bold now: You need to work some serious damage control, pronto. It's probably already too late - but apologies are in order. Unless you actually want to be relegated to your husband's terrible music videos. In which case, you are totally on track.

Jesus, you think you're on top of things and then this comes along. I just got my mind blown, courtesy of What Would Tyler Durden Do. Details:
[George Clooney has nailed Charlize Theron, Kelly Preston,
Vendela, Salma Hayek and Brooke Langton, and we're not even up to his top 3
yet. That would be Shannyn Sossamon, Krista Allen and Lucy Liu. But he also
reportedly did it with Teri Hatcher and Ellen Barkin (not at once), and he was
married to Talia Balsam for 4 years, until 1993. Now he's dating 30-year-old
Italian actress Elisabetta Canalis, and she's not all that good looking either.
She has a hot body but so what. So do I, that doesn't mean George Clooney gets
to date me.]
Getting on top and getting blown - a few things George Clooney apparently knows a lot about! I had no idea. I was aware of the handful of models/cocktail waitresses and Renee Zellweger. That's about it. Oh, and Krista Allen - that one I knew. She's the super hot chick who never got a proper break in Hollywood - despite having, umm, made the rounds. She currently pals around with Denise Richards, so you do the math. But that list? That contained more than a few surprises for me. Damn - no wonder George has decided he'll never get married again.
Ashton reveals his secrets of life in a new interview for Parade - and I reveal how I'm so thin. I get sick anytime I read about anything Ashton has to say, which is a lot. Why do you think I follow him on Twitter? Best diet there is - and it's free! Oh, it also works if you follow Gwyneth Paltrow by the way...
[Gravitating towards fame: "Once I got a taste of it, I
went: 'I can do anything. I can do absolutely anything.' And you start to
believe it. I know it to be true because I've seen it happen. I've experienced
it. I'm ambitious. I try to make it look like it's not work -- that's the
biggest key. I've got it pretty good. There's no sense in making life seem like
it's a struggle, because that doesn't make anybody feel better."
How he
and Demi make it work: "The real trick is putting yourself around people
you admire. That's why I married my wife. I locked in the brightest light in
the room. My wife and I have an agreement in our marriage, and part of that
contract is that we are going to shine our lights on each other. My
relationship with Demi is so solid, thank God, and we're so communicative about
the way that we're feeling that we don't allow space to come between us. I
definitely believe that if you stop working at relationships, they go
away."]
It's in the contract that you have to shine your lights on each other? Kinky. I'll bet he didn't know the light would be coming from her ass when he signed on the dotted line.
I love it when the tabloids feature those cheesy "body language experts" where they have the professionals disseminate the interaction between celebrity couples via photographs. It always makes me laugh. Then I saw this video and it occurred to me that they might be on to something! Watch this interview between Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart and gauge how they relate to one another. Taylor comes off as confident, mature and professional. Kristen comes off as, well, none of those things. She's so fidgety and awkward. When she leans in for a mock kiss, Taylor reels back like he's about to bite by a snake. Play with me - what do you think is going on here? Is Lautner secretly repelled by Stewart? It sure seems like it!
A new day, a new strategy! I just wrote about Kim Kardashian's interesting take on dating and breakups. Hot on her heels is the Enquirer's assertion that Jennifer Aniston is thrilled the world thinks Bradley Cooper dumped her - because they're secretly still dating. Ha! Joke's on us, suckers. More:
[Now it can be told: Jen Aniston's & Bradley Cooper's
media "fake-out" to get sexy away from the prying eyes of the world! Jennifer Aniston's romance with Bradley Cooper is back on -
in fact, it was never off. And Jen couldn't be happier that everyone believes
he dumped her.
The ENQUIRER can exclusively reveal that the Friends beauty
and Hangover hunk had a discreet rendezvous at a private Washington,D.C., club
July 18 - exactly one month after their first public get-together at a New York
restaurant. "Jen loves that everyone thinks Bradley gave her the
heave-ho and that she's fooling around with Gerard Butler, her co-star in The
Bounty," an insider told The ENQUIRER.
The ruse is allowing Jen and Bradley to get to know each
other better out of the public spotlight. "Jen is thrilled that no one knows about her and Bradley,"
the insider revealed. "She's really sick of feeling like her love life is always
under a microscope. Bradley is Jen's little secret."
Jen, 40, a break from filming in New York City and dashed to
Washington, D.C., for a secret meeting with her new Brad, 34. The two arrived
at L2 Lounge, a posh private club, at 11:30 p.m. "They sat off in a quiet corner, but Jen's smile radiated
throughout the whole club," an eyewitness told The ENQUIRER. "She sipped Grey
Goose vodka and pineapple and kept her hand on Bradley's leg most of the time. They weren't shy about being affectionate. Bradley kept
whispering in her ear and kissing her lips and neck. They slipped out
arm-in-arm about 1 a.m."]
I'm both hopeful and doubtful. I wouldn't mind seeing Jen with a steady beau. At the same time, this leak could be a convenient way to erase the stale memory of Bradley's dinner "date" with Denise Richards. The thought still makes me shudder and will be burned on my brain in a way I don't appreciate. I could see Jen and "Coop" scaling back from the public eye - but the fact that Bradley actually likes the nickname "Coop" and the Enquirer calls it "sexy time" just made me want to lose the lunch I haven't even had yet. A fling that could have been hot just turned colder than Lindsay Lohan's job hunt.
[Photo Credit: They have hung out at some point - that's about all we know for sure.]
So, we heard this week that Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush broke up. It seemed kind of sudden, given that Kim had hinted on numerous occasions that her relationship was headed towards marriage. Apparently Reggie didn't feel the same way, as it seems he was the one to end the relationship - even though Kim was the first to make comments in the press. Well, the plot has thickened - as it often seems to have a way of doing. Here's a really interesting scoop, via Crazy Days & Nights:
[As I said earlier this week, it was pretty obvious that
Reggie Bush was the one who dumped Kim Kardashian, but she is the one who
called everyone and released her version of events which when you read all her
past quotes as recently as two days earlier is ridiculous. Anyway, one of my
favorite columnists over at the Chicago Sun Times talks about how Reggie
cheated which we all knew, but something I had not heard before is that Kim was
so desperate to stay with Reggie that she paid off a tabloid when one of Reggie's
conquests had sold her story to said tabloid. When you are paying off a tabloid
or making some other deal to make sure your boyfriend doesn't look bad when he
has done the same action repeatedly, then you have some serious issues.]
Wow - straight from the pages of "How to date and lose your self-esteem" - the best seller from Jessica Simpson. I don't know that it's so much that Kim was worried about Reggie looking bad as it was concern over how bad she was going to look at the end of this situation. She's definitely got a hardcore bent towards being a diva. She obviously had the foresight to scramble to the media with her side of the story. Most women who have just been dumped curl up on the couch with three things: ice cream, a cat and reruns of Sex & The City. They do not go on an all out media assault. Perhaps she's saving the grieving for later?
[Photo Credit: Kareful Kim, you're looking a little J.Lo-ish here.]
That's my ringing endorsement for Brooke Hogan. She's a little better than Asslee - only because it appears that Brooke is not lip-synching. She still looks and sounds like a forty year old hooker, but at least her pipes are clean. Click here for Ashlee's most embarrassing moment ever - the infamous Saturday Night Live appearance with her "band." She may have the nose job and the marriage, but I have the memory of an elephant. I never forget.
Another home run, courtesy of the hilarious Steve Zahn. Watch as he terrifies Heidi Klum and almost brings Conan to tears. I love how he intimates that Heidi knows all models, calling them "her group." He's there to promote his new movie, a horror/suspense flick called The Perfect Getaway, but really just makes a case for how awesome he is. (Click here to watch the movie trailer.) Steve is one of those quirky celebrities who does a perfect job every time and then disappears until the next project. A few actors in Tinseltown could stand to take a page from his book!
The comments are flying - and it didn't take long at all! We learned yesterday that Rachelle LeFevre has been replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard for the third installment of the Twilight franchise. Rachelle was quick to make her disappointment publicly known - and Summit has responded with a stinging statement:
["We at Summit Entertainment are disappointed by
Rachelle Lefevre's recent comments which attempt to make her career choices the
fault of the Studio," Summit said in a statement to Access Hollywood on
Thursday evening. "Her decision to discuss her version of the scheduling
challenges publicly has forced the Studio to set the record straight and
correct the facts. We feel that her choice to withhold her scheduling
conflict information from us can be viewed as a lack of cooperative spirit
which affected the entire production. Ms. Lefevre took a role in the
other film that places her in Europe during the required rehearsal time, and at
least ten days of 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse's' principal photography. This period
is essential for both rehearsal time with the cast, and for filming at key
locations that are only available during the initial part of production,"
the statement from Summit read.
"The fact remains that Ms. Lefevre's commitment to the
other project - which she chose to withhold from Summit until the last possible
moment - makes her unfortunately unavailable to perform the role of Victoria in
'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,'" Summit's statement concluded.]
Ouch. Someone's gonna have a tough time getting work in that town! Perhaps she could lose a ton of weight and pretend to be Lindsay Lohan. (Not that Rachelle is fat, by any stretch of the imagination. It's just that Lindsay's looking so, umm, emaciated these days.) Of course, that strategy might backfire since Lohan doesn't get jobs anymore - but at least she'd have someone to blame for her poor decisions! It sounds like Summit really wanted the daughter of an A-list director versus an "unknown" and they don't want to own up to it. The good news? A lot more people know LeFevre's name today than they did prior so maybe this will all shake down just fine...
Aww, little Scarlett Johansson has baby claws! This is Scarlett's attempt to deny the feud rumors behind the scenes of Iron Man 2 with Gwyneth Paltrow. Check it out:
[Io9: Are there any truth rumors about the cat fight between
you and Gwyneth Paltrow?
SJ: No, nothing could be further from the truth. I
have nothing but wonderful things to say about working with her. Well, she's
very much out of the loop. She's very much out of the loop, you know -- she's
got a wonderful family whom she spends a lot of time with. So for her, she's
like, "What's going on? What?" And of course Jon [Favreau] who's on his
Twitter, he's crazy about any kind of news about anything. He's like "You
haven't heard? You haven't heard?" And he comes onto set and we're both like,
"Oh god." Every time I would say to Gwyneth, "Oh yeah, that was on the
seventh," and she'd say, "Are you sure it wasn't on the sixth?" He'd (Favreau) yell, "what? It's a cat fight! It's breaking out."
Io9: The last thing they were saying is that she was in New
York purposely snubbing Comic Con because you were going to get all of the
attention.
SJ: Believe me she's worthy of plenty of attention and I know that
that fans love her and they are going to love to see her in this movie, because
her character kind of comes into her own. I know she would love to be here as
well, but she's with her family.]
Oh, cat-fight indeed. You know Gwyneth would have been at Comic Con in a heartbeat, had she been given the star treatment she believes she deserves. It sounds like a little bit of her own bullshit is coming back to haunt her. Has anyone checked if Scarlett and Winona Ryder or friends?
Like the thought of having a mini Brad Pitt running around? One that you could manipulate any way you please? Well, now you can! Designer sperm, coming right up...
[California Cryobank announced Tuesday that it has started
posting photos of celebrities who resemble their donors to give prospective
clients a better idea of what their potential offspring might look like. "The
number one client question we get is: `Who does this donor look like?"' said
Scott Brown of California Cryobank. "We decided this would be a great way to
give thorough and consistent answers. Clients love it. Look-a-Likes has only
been available for a week and our Web site traffic is up 50 percent."
A group of employees spent six months putting together the
photos and matching them to donors. Clients can search for attributes such as
height or eye and hair color, and the database will return a list of donors who
each have two or three celebrity look-a-likes. Users also can choose from an
existing library of celebrities to generate a list of matching donors,
according to California Cyrobank, which was started in 1977.]
Now that's service! Why not hire Jude Law? Seems like he'd be happy to take care of all kinds of ladies.

He must have really, really hated Jessica Simpson. Turns out Tony Romo was cheating on Jessica. That's no surprise, given the way he's treated her. But he took it from dickish to cruel when Jessica unknowingly met the girl Tony's been messing around with - because he brought the chick to one of Simpson's concerts. Wow. Details - sadly there's more:
[Jessica Simpson exuberantly announced Tony Romo -- "the
man who loves me!" -- was at her Feb. 6 concert. Backstage that night, Romo would introduce her to Natalie
Smith, a younger, skinnier look-alike of the singer, who, multiple sources tell
Us Weekly, he had been sending "flirty texts" to for months while
still dating Simpson. (Smith is the daughter of the associate athletic director
at Romo's alma mater, Eastern Illinois University.)
"We hung out for, like 10 to 15 minutes,
backstage," Smith tells Us Weekly (on stands today). "She was cool
and nice." Multiple sources tell Us that Romo was having an emotional
affair with Smith months before dumping Simpson on July 9, the eve of her 29th
birthday. Romo, 29, and Smith, 22, "are are not officially dating, but they
are having an intimate relationship," a Smith source tells Us. Adds
another pal of Smith, who typically dined with Romo when he'd visit his college
town: "They've always flirted and texted each other. They had phone
conversations one to two months before the breakup."]
What a whore. And I'm talking about Tony. If he had so little respect for Jessica, why was he with her? This is horrific. I'll bet Jess is glad she hung on to that precious virginity. What was the point of that again?
Since he seems to be into receiving credit where none is due, why not this too? Ashton Kutcher has riled folks again with his blowhard ways. Though surely he misspoke, it's too fun to pass up on giving him a hard time! Details:
[Ashton Kutcher recently gave an interview where he discussed
what he's accomplished with Twitter. He's surpassed CNN in his Twitter
following and has the ability to basically shut down websites just by tweeting
about them. In the interview, he also said this: "I started Twitter as a
communication device to stay in touch with fans. I shut down a website everyday because I send too much
traffic there from my Twitter feed."]
He also swings from trees, beating his own chest - just like Tarazan. Able to shut down a website with a single Tweet - all well keeping a fifty year old woman sexually satisfied. Way to rock it, dude.
[Photo Credit: So in love - and I know it's real because they Tweet about it.]
[Jude Law can confirm that, following a relationship last
year, he has been advised that he is to be the father of a child due in the
fall of this year. Mr. Law is no longer in a relationship with the individual
concerned but he intends to be a fully supportive part of the child's life.
This is an entirely private matter and no other statements will be made."]
So, he had a one night stand with a nobody - that's what I'm inferring from this situation. I guess he's trying to defray the scandal by owning up to it before dirty details are leaked. This will be his fourth child - he already has three with ex-wife, Sadie Frost. Maybe it's a handy excuse to hire another nanny. His union with Sienna Miller famously imploded when he hooked with Daisy Wright, his children's caretaker at the time. (He blamed that affair on Sienna, because he's a class act.) I wonder how this recent news will affect his fling with Cameron Diaz? Jude's conduct hasn't been very gentlemanly, but it sure is juicy!
I didn't know there was a fire crotch alert in Hollywood! Looks like a big casting switcharoo went down recently for the next Twilight installment. Sadly the actor being replaced wasn't aware of the change until informed by the media. Damn - I hate it when that happens. News:
[Summit Entertainment announced the replacement of
"Twilight Saga" star Rachelle Lefevre in the series' third film,
"Eclipse," on Tuesday night - and fans weren't the only ones
surprised by the news -- Rachelle was shocked as well!
"I was stunned by
Summit's decision to recast the role of Victoria for 'Eclipse,'" Rachelle
said in a statement to Access Hollywood. On Tuesday, Summit announced that
Bryce Dallas Howard would be taking on the role in "Eclipse," due in
May 2010. "I was fully committed to the 'Twilight' saga, and to the
portrayal of Victoria," Rachelle continued, explaining the turn of events
that led to the casting change. "I turned down several other film
opportunities and, in accordance with my contractual rights, accepted only roles
that would involve very short shooting schedules. My commitment to 'Barney's
Version' is only ten days. Summit picked up my option for 'Eclipse.' Although
the production schedule for 'Eclipse' is over three months long, Summit said
they had a conflict during those ten days and would not accommodate me."]
It's a pretty big shakeup, given that Rachelle technically could have made the majority of filming for Eclipse. Will we find out more? No offense to Rachelle, but you are interchangeable. The only ones not going anywhere are Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. And Dakota Fanning. God, I can't wait to see what Dakota will do in that role. She's freaking brilliant. Anyways, I'm not too sure about the casting of Bryce. Her claim to fame, aside from her membership to the Howard clan, is being M. Night Shalam's muse. Her credentials are a little shaky. She's still got something to prove, despite the name...
Has Megan Fox worn out her welcome - even with men? Fox has been going full-bore with the press since hitting the scene regularly on a high profile basis. There's no denying that she's lovely to look at, but it seems to be her luscious mouth that's getting her in the most trouble. She's been annoying me for awhile and it turns out several men-based websites are feeling the same way. So much so that a group has banned together, declaring August 4th a Megan Fox media free day. More:
[Is Megan Fox wearing out her welcome? A dozen male-centric
Web sites are reportedly imposing a ban on the starlet - for one day, at least. According to The New York Daily News' Gatecrasher, sites
including Asylum.com, Ask Men, Just a Guy Thing, TheBachelorGuy.com and Double
Viking have deemed August 4 as "a Megan Fox media blackout day. You can have too much of a good thing,"
AskMen.com's Editor-in-Chief James Bassil told the paper, "We're joining
in the media blackout and giving our readers a one-day reprieve from the woman
we've been drowning in all summer."
Eric Rogell of TheBachelorGuy.com wants to shine the
spotlight on a different young starlet, at least for a brief moment - but still
admitted Megan has done wonders for his company. "Listen, we love Megan. She's responsible for driving
more eyeballs to our sites -- just by getting photographed walking down the
street in a white T-shirt -- than any other celeb alive," he told the
paper. "It's time to give another young actress a shot at the attention.
We're taking a one-day break from covering Megan's latest nail polish color and
instead promoting another 'Next Big Thing.' And which young Hollywood actress might be able to fill
Megan's shoes for at least one day? According to Eric, it's the star of
"The Unborn. "My vote is for Odette Yustman," he added. "I
call her 'The Poor Man's Megan Fox.'"]
Isn't Megan Fox already the poor man's Angelina Jolie? How much further down the hotness chain are we going? I think a brief media reprieve will be a welcomed break, but I don't think it'll make much of a difference to the unstoppable Ms. Motormouth.
[Photo Credit: Why not start the ban now? Introducing Odette for your viewing pleasure. Let's hope she's a little more savvy with her quotes.]
Sex & The City cutie, Kristin Davis has nabbed a man! Kristin's had a real life rocky road in the romance department. She was briefly linked to both Alec Baldwin and Jeff Goldblum, but hasn't had a steady boyfriend in ages. Now she's apparently found love in the arms of Australian fashion photographer, Russell James. Click here for a photo of Russell - he's reminiscent of a Harlequin Romance era Fabio. Davis is a timeless beauty. I was always surprised at her lack of a mate. I hope her new relationship is built to last. Congrats to Kristin for finding a beau and negotiating a successful salary increase for the SATC sequel. Not bad!
I know you were worried about when Nick Lachey was gonna get back in the saddle. Well, you can stop your fretting - looks like he's already found a willing participant for a rebound. Details? You know you want 'em!
[He was spotted out and about with a mystery blonde on Sunday
night. According to Just Jared, the two had drinks and dinner at Stanley's
Restaurant and Bar in Sherman Oaks, CA. Radar reports that this new girl is
Holly Letchworth, a University of Louisiana grad who was Jesse McCartney's
former girlfriend. A source says, "Holly is a really beautiful and smart girl
and Nick Lachey is a lucky guy. She couldn't believe all the fuss and text[ed]
me after their first date 'I can't believe they cannot figure out who I am?'"]
I can believe "they" couldn't figure out who you are. Bitch, I couldn't pick you out of a lineup. (Click here for a photo of Holly.) Hey, anywhere Jesse McCartney's been must be a classy place. After all, Jesse's had flings with both Lindsay Lohan and Hayden Panettiere. I'm sure Vanessa Minnelo, Nick's ex, is busy finding Lachey's replacement as we speak. I'm guessing her one night with Topher Grace was exactly that?
Rumors are running rampant today that Scarlett Johansson and hubby Ryan Reynolds had a big blowout right before heading into Comic Con. I highly doubt the story, but it's steadily gaining steam on the Web. Here are details:
[They were said to have gotten into a heated argument as both
of them left for the Comic-Con convention. Scarlett was in attendance because
of her role as the Black Widow in "Iron Man 2″. Ryan was supposed to appear
because he was cast as the lead in the "Green Lantern".
An insider said, "They got into a huge fight just before
they were going to Comic Con. It caused such a rift between them that Ryan
refused to attend the conference and he told Scarlett she could go alone. She
got so angry she threatened to take off her wedding band."
She came out of the conference looking like a professional,
while he looked like a total tool for dissing the fan base for the movie.]
I'm having difficulty swallowing this story whole. They've been very private and protective of their union. And professionally? Ryan was just up against some serious competition to secure the Green Lantern role. Would he really be willing to disappoint studio heads so quickly? Sure, the ink might be dry on his contract but it still seems like a mighty risky move. And walking away from Scarlett? Well that just sounds insane! What do you think? Is there a grain of truth to this story or is it simply ludicrous?
UPDATE: Finally, a denial from their reps! [Their rep is defusing the rumors, saying, "The report is
completely untrue. Warner Brothers never planned to have Green Lantern as part
of their panel at this year's Comic-Con and Ryan is in Europe shooting a film."
A friend of theirs is even speaking out, adding, "Any reports of a fight are
ridiculous."]

The Daily Mail recently ran a story claiming that Orlando Bloom wasn't coming back to the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise because he wants to spend more time with his girlfriend, Victoria's Secret model Miranda Kerr. When I read the assertions of The Daily Mail, I was skeptical. Hadn't Bloom's Pirates character, Will Turner, already run his course? Yes, he has! Isn't Orlando an international movie star? Yes, he is! Why would he need to spend more time with his young gal pal, who he surely has on the hook? I thought the story sounded like rubbish, as the Brits like to say. Then I saw these photos (NSFW) of Miranda on assignment and I was like, "You know, they're probably right."
Lauren Conrad's "book" may be hitting the big screen - for real. Why not? It already landed on the New York Times coveted Best Sellers list. I can't believe Lauren - the only one who thinks she actually wrote that book by herself is, apparently, herself. More:
[The former reality star has revealed that a celluloid
adaptation of her roman à clef novel, "L.A. Candy," could be in the
works very soon."We're hoping for a movie deal," Conrad told us.
"I'm working on adapting the book for the movies right now, but I don't
want to commit to anything until I see all my options. We have had a lot of
exciting news in that respect, though."
The Orange County native is also penning her second book.
"I actually finished the first draft - I'm doing edits right now,"
she confided. "It picks up where the first left off. I signed a three-book
deal, so this is all part of the same story. The second book will be more
dramatic than the first. It's a relief, because I didn't have to worry about
character introductions."
But is LC writing her own stories? Frenemy - and former
"Laguna Beach" co-star Kristin Cavallari - recently said she thought
"L.A. Candy" may have been ghostwritten. "Lauren says she wrote
it, but I don't know," Cavallari laughed. "Writing a book is not so
easy."
A stone-faced Conrad retaliated: "I wrote my book, and
I don't really feel the need to defend it. I've been writing forever. I have
never written anything professionally before, so this was a big step for me.
[Writing] was always my best subject in school, and it's something I've always
loved to do."]
You know who I think would be perfect for the lead role? Katherine Heigl! That's where her career is headed - why not embrace it?
George Clooney has a new girlfriend! The even bigger news? She's not a cocktail waitress nor is she in her twenties. Well, as I live and breathe - looks like George might be growing up, just a little bit. The lucky lady in question is Elisabetta Canalis and folks she is 31 years old! She is the new host of MTV's Italian version of Total Request Live. Not much dirt - yet - but I'll be on the lookout for you! Meanwhile, congrats to George for finding a somewhat appropriate partner. I'm proud of you, buddy.

Katie Holmes "narrowly escaped" injury on the set of "Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark" after a car she had just exited caught on fire. Those are the only sparks Katie has seen since her days with ex-boyfriend, Chris Klein! Part of me thinks Katie probably wishes she was in the vehicle when it ignited. Do you ever get the feeling she kind of hopes to end it all? She looks so gaunt and depressed these days. And when I say "end it all" I mean her faux union to control midget, Tom Cruise. That guy could take a girl from lusty to sallow in a few days, much less a few years. Katie was able to bounce back from the scare by spending time with best friend daughter, Suri. A stiff belt of vodka and time with her vibrator probably helped as well...

Were you missing Megan Fox? Well, she's baaaack! The lovely lady with the forked tongue made a recent appearance at San Diego's Comic Con to promote both Jennifer's Body and Jonah Hex (with costar Josh Brolin). She made her debut at the festival to the usual beating of testosterone. One fan didn't let common decency get in the way - he asked Megan flat out to star in a sex tape. Unfortunately for him, security guards didn't see the humor in the request! Details:
[This year Scarlett Johansson was the headliner, promoting
Iron Man 2, but it was an appearance by Megan Fox which had the geeks talking
after one fan approached the star during a Q&A to promote her new
supernatural western Jonah Hex.
"My question is for Megan," the man said. "I have a Sony HVR
(video camera). It's not a true HD, but it gives a pretty good image. Anyway, my question is: I just graduated film school and I'm
trying to help my career. I was wondering if you'd be interested in some kind
of, like, celebrity sex tape?"
With that, a couple of security guards grabbed the fella and
took him to an undisclosed location.
"Dude, I can't wait to see what you look like in 30
minutes," Fox's co-star, Josh Brolin, quipped as the man was dragged away.]
Though Josh was quick to make a comment, Megan demurred. How unlike her! I still say that Megan got lucky with that Michael Bay car wash of one. A sex tape or a life of acting on cable next to Kelly Ripa could have just as easily been the card fate drew from the hat. Meanwhile, guess who she's still dating? That's right - Brian Austin Green! How's the house hunting going, you two?
I can't believe Billy Ray was left out of that great meeting of the minds that happened recently in the Hamptons. I think there's a way to solve this - by starting a self-help group: "How to live vicariously through your daughter, who happens to be worth millions." I think we can safely include Michael Lohan and Jon Gosselin in that group. Though Lindsay's fortunes may waver, she'll always have the slight option for a comeback - if she doesn't die first. And the Gosselins? Well, the safe money is on eldest daughter Mady. But he's got eight to chose from, so he gets in on the merit of already making a ton of cash off his kids. However, founding father status goes to Billy Ray Cyrus, who has forced his annoying spawn on the world. He's really setting the standard for bending over meekly in order to stay in the good graces of his multi-millionaire prodigy. Read on:
[Billy Ray on his relationship with Miley: "Teenagers will be
teenagers - gotta give them room to go. We talk about a lot of things she's
going through. I'm a friend first and foremost, then a daddy, and then a
business partner. I'm not going to talk about that (being a matchmaker). It's
important to me to keep things between us. Miley's got enough people
criticizing her and pointing fingers."
Billy Ray on Miley choosing her own path: "I told Miley
yesterday, at this stage of the fame, whatever she does I just hope that it
brings her happiness. It doesn't matter to me if she wants to do another season
of Hannah; I'll be there. If she wants to go back to Tennessee and ride horses,
I'll do that. The only reason she should do anything is for her happiness. She
doesn't have to put up with this bullsh*t - the blood-sucking leeches that use
you for everything they can use you for, man, and throw you out on the streets.
It's the nature of the business. I hate the music business. I love the music. Hollywood and the music industry got a lot in common.
It's that same mentality - egos, money. I'm gonna leave you with this: Music,
art, love, passion - that's why the Cyruses do what they do. Bottom line."]
Lucky for Billy, he's perfected the art of raising a total fame-whore, so the odds of watching his daughter retire to ride horses in Tennessee are slim. It must be kind of tough when one of the blood-sucking leeches is your own father. That said, I find it extremely difficult to conjure up much sympathy for Miley. As for Billy Ray? He's in excellent company!

[Although the actress' pals showed up at the Edison Ballroom
for "An Evening With Lola" (hubby Marc Anthony's nickname for Lopez) in her
honor, La Lopez - who entered the shindig to Sarah Vaughan's "Whatever Lola
Wants" - stayed true to her diva status and "threw a fit" when some of her
guests were late to the exclusive dinner.
"Jennifer's party was very intimate, and there were a
noticeable amount of empty seats when the dinner started. Jennifer was really
irritated. She was fuming because people were late, and complained about it
really loudly to Marc," said one partygoer, who added, "Jennifer was visibly
upset and embarrassed.
And although most of her good pals attended the fete, the
mole claims that Lopez was upset that best friends Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes
didn't attend - they were busy hanging out with David and Victoria Beckham in
L.A.
As for Lopez herself, says our first insider, "After
Jennifer got over her initial irritation, she let go and looked like she was
having the time of her life, drinking champagne and partying until 4 a.m. It
was definitely a good way to kick-start her 40s."]
I think the setup of the evening is just the tip of the iceberg of how selfish Jennifer can be. Parties are for dropping in. Only a total control freak would expect a guest to show up on time and stay the entire evening. Who arrives "fashionably late" to a fete? I know I do! An 8 o'clock invite means 9 o'clock to me - and I also don't feel obligated to be the last one standing. This is one of the many, many reasons why "Lola" and I are not friends. Oh, and thanks for the tipoff on the nickname. I'm happy to open the floodgates for teasing on that topic!
[Photo Credit: Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anothy. Gosh, the sure do look sexy from the side. Click here to see Lola in tears in her birthday getup, Maybe she's crying because she realized Megan Fox already wore it - and it looked better on her.]
As in nada, zip, zilch, zero. That's what Ryan O'Neil will be receiving from Farrah Fawcett's will. She left the bulk of her estate to their son Redmond, which will be distributed to him from a trust - presumably after he completes his current jail time. As for Ryan? I guess his general douchebaggery and lack of commitment to Farrah has finally caught up with him. Despite their decades long relationship, the couple never got married. O'Neil tried to push a through with a wedding in the hospital, which Farrah ultimately denied. Turns out Fawcett got the last laugh. Even in her weakened state, she apparently saw through Ryan's ruse. I'm sure she's resting in peace, knowing she's not hitched for all eternity to an asshole. Call it a cautionary tale!
Holy cow - Joe Jonas and Camilla Belle have split up! I really thought their similar looking eyebrows would hold them together, kind of like magnets. Just goes to show how wrong I was! Camilla is rumored to have had a fling with Robert Pattinson. That must only be a rumor - otherwise she would have been beaten by Twihards. Most likely she desires some dick and Joe wouldn't give it up. A girl can only wait so long! Meanwhile, in other shocking celebrity breakups, Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush have also called it quits. Coincidence? I think not! The busty reality starlet was recently quoted as saying she had a crush on Nick Jonas. Now I see her ruse! It was clearly a smokescreen to cover her lusty affair with Joe. This is totally like LeeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian splitting up with the respective spouses at the same time. Except in Kim and Joe's case there's been no penetration or exchange of bodily fluids. Other than those small details, the situations are so totally similar!
The tide is continuing to turn - and not in a flattering way for Katherine Heigl. She once had a shot at movie stardom, but she seems hellbent on shooting herself in the foot. Once championed as Julie Roberts' replacement, Heigl's best bet now seems to be sticking close to her television roots. Tabloids have long since been on Heigls trail for her snark, but now respectable media is starting to take notice. Check out this partial rant, via Newsweek:
[How did Katherine Heigl fall so far and so fast in esteem?
Part of it is pure sexism. Every decade has a Most Annoying Actress (not that
long ago, Jennifer Love Hewitt was the object of tabloid disaffection), never
an actor, and it's a distinction doled out via a caveman's principles. Heigl
violates every archaic, unspoken rule of being America's box-office sweetheart.
A lot of actors smoke, curse, drink, and mouth off, but she gets the most grief
for it. Last summer, when she was caught flicking a finished cigarette onto the
sidewalk, Star magazine quickly tarred her as an environmentally unfriendly
"litterbug" who inappropriately goaded a nearby police officer into letting her
off without a ticket.
But more than simply daring to challenge chauvinistic mores,
Heigl has shot herself in the foot with her delivery... Heigl wants all the
sympathy for herself. This week, she carped to David Letterman that she'd had a
"seventeen- (dramatic pause) hour (dramatic pause)" workday on set, and that
she was "going to keep saying this because I hope it embarrasses them [the
Grey's Anatomy show runners]." Embarrass them for what? Keeping her employed?
To a country nearing 10 percent unemployment, the remark was tone-deaf.
Regarding The Ugly Truth: Just like real life, in which
Heigl seems unable to see the acreage between oversharing and keeping her mouth
shut. Heigl might be an actress, but she could work on her act.]
Being compared to Jennifer Love Hewitt? Ouch! I saw The Ugly Truth this weekend and, honestly, the most interesting thing about the film was the large amount of teenaged boys in the audience. That was a surprise to me. The plot and anything to do with the movie? Not so much. And if you think the media is being too harsh with Heigl, think again. Her screen presence, despite the decent opening monetarily speaking, is beginning to dim. There wasn't any sparkle. At least Julia Roberts waited until she was more established to start acting like a total bitch. I was rooting for Katherine at one point - I hope I can return to that in future.
Just in case Jessica Simpson thinks she can swing by Tony Romo's home for a chat, he's made it quite clear that she's not welcome. I don't know what Jessica does to her men - but they sure don't want to have anything to do with her after the shagging is done. Details:
[After Tony Romo callously dumped Jessica Simpson the night
before her 29th birthday, he made sure his ex wouldn't be able to get near his
Dallas home. The new issue of Us Weekly, on stands now, reports the
Dallas Cowboys quarterback instructed security to keep Simpson out of his gated
community.
A sign at the entrance reads: "RED ALERT!!! TONY ROMO
HAS MADE SOME CHANGES TO HIS LIST OF PEOPLE ALLOWED IN....JESSICA IS NO LONGER
ON THE LIST AND NOT APPROVED FOR ACCESS.
(Simpson didn't exactly want to stick around: The singer
paid $19,000 on July 15 to ship 37 boxes worth of her belongings from Dallas to
L.A. overnight, a source tells Us.) After the the couple -- who began dating in November 2007 --
called it quits earlier this month, a pal of Romo told Us: "It's been a
long time coming."]
I get it that he's not into her anymore - but he should have had the balls to break up with her when he first realized his change of heart. Instead he's been extremely callous to a basically sweet girl while simultaneously making himself out to be a total asshole. Being mean to Jessica is like kicking a puppy. If feel extra bad for Simpson - you know, on top of all this, that the Tony will most likely marry the next girl he seriously dates. One night stands and cougars don't count.
What more is there to say? That is my official question to Jon Gosselin today. I have to admit that I didn't watch Jon & Kate Plus Eight, but Jon's recent life choices seem to be the gift that keeps on giving. Fascinating, horrifying with the ability to sully anyone in his path. It's like the Enquirer built a superhero clad in Ed Hardy. Apparently having the services of NYC PR firm Rubenstein isn't enough for Mr. Gosselin. Enter Michael Lohan - 'cuz that seems like a great idea! Michael says:
["He would love to be friends with her," says Lohan, the
estranged father of Lindsay Lohan, who's been showing Gosselin around the
Hamptons. "They had eight kids and he would like to work things out the right
way and just be friends."
The new buddies spent Saturday in Southampton, attending a
business meeting, walking on the beach - where they were met by paparazzi - and
shopping at a J. Crew store for clothes to wear to a polo match in
Bridgehampton that afternoon. "A lot of opportunities are opening up for him," Lohan says
of his friend, referring to possible endorsement deals.
Lohan also says Gosselin is in a good mood these days. "He's
fantastic and upbeat and said that he just wanted to concentrate on his kids
and his career and his life," he said. "It's overwhelming for him but he's
handling it."
As for for Gosselin's gal pal Hailey Glassman and the former
Star magazine reporter Gosselin's been spotted with, Kate Major, "he's not with
either one right now," Lohan reports. "He's not concentrating on a relationship
with any woman. He just wants to take a step back and deal with his family and
his kids."]
So I guess the engagement is off between Jon and 22 year old Hailey? What a shock. Kudos to Michael Lohan for his unique way of staying in the spotlight. Cleverness and tacky media stunts must run in the family! I can't wait to hear what Michael decides to tell us about Jon next...
Good thing she talked herself right out of the crown - apparently Carrie Prejean has a long career ahead of her as a singer. Well, if that career includes crooning to cats heat. They could join in harmony. That's about how on pitch she is, which obviously isn't saying much. Sorry to torture you with this video, but it is hilarious and it seems like the perfect epitome of Monday.
I'm sure there are two side to this story - but they're sides that should be playing out in private. Candy Spelling has taken to the press again to chastise daughter Tori. Candy, per usual, has made some nasty passive-aggressive comments while trying to appear like she's taking the high road. Because the high road always involves sending a public letter to TMZ:
[EXCLUSIVE TO: TMZ.COM TO: MIDDLE-AGED REALITY SHOW STARS
(LIKE MY DAUGHTER) FROM: CANDY SPELLING
I Know many middle-aged people have issues about their
parents and their upbringing. I did. My memories didn't match all those of my
mother, and, funny thing, it's the same way with my daughter.
Life has consequences. What you say is on the record. Other
people have feelings.
I have a vested interest in this subject. My daughter,
Tori's, two-part season finale revolves around my granddaughter's first
birthday party and how she has made what seems like an agonizing decision to
invite me.
Cue music. Cue sideways glaces. Clue Lights.
I did get an invitation just in time for the RSVP deadline.
I'm sure its delivery will be on next week's episode with some comment about my
house or driveway or street or something they won't like. I wonder if that will
be spread out over one part or two. Sigh.
A big party wasn't how I envisioned meeting my granddaughter
for the first time; but, hey, this is Hollywood, and my grandchildren have
become reality show props, too. At the time I emailed "yes," I didn't realize I
was being set up for a two-parter, even though it was clear I was being invited
to be part of a segment for my daughter's reality show.
Spoiler alert. Don't read this if you plan to sit through an
hour of people looking at their watches and saying "she's late." I decided my
first meeting with my granddaughter should be on home video, not primetime
cable; so I emailed that i would not be attending.
Back to other reality stars. My husband taught me that the
plots have to be fresh and updated. The same old whining gets tired after a
while. Enough complaining about what may or may not have happened during first
grade or YMCA camp, or what vegetable you were forced to endure, especially
when you are privileged enough to be on TV and get paid for it.
For all the reality show personalities, please remember that
real life doesn't get edited to make things better or worse or get better
ratings.
You're responsible for what you do. Life isn't just a show.
And your families can't just be props. Make your own season finale without
creating conflicts you will regret later.]
How about not sending a letter that will be viewed by the public! If she had a soul, she'd surely regret that move later. And as for calling Tori "middle-aged"? What exactly does that make you, Candy? You're a fantastic mother. Golf claps.
[Photo Credit: That mansion won't keep you warm, Candy.]
Though they do get touted around the world, Britney Spears has said "no way" to her little tots ending up on Kevin Federline's upcoming reality show. Sounds like that little glimmer of sanity is turning into a beacon. K-Fat is set to star in a yet unnamed program with live-in girlfriend, Victoria Prince. Britney is said to be considering legal action if Kevin tries to push the issue. The irony, of course being that Britney would ultimately end up paying for both sides of the court proceedings. Any chance K-Fat will act like a decent human being this time around? Those kids have been through hell and back - the last thing they need is to be forced to watch daddy sit around and eat fried food on the air.
What's wrong Joe Francis - afraid to take it like a man? Of course you are! Joe, of course, went out of his way to make prison as comfortable as possible. He can film the bitches - but he sure doesn't want to be treated like one! Details:
[Girls Gone Wild creator Joe Francis was behind bars in Reno
back in 2007 on charges of federal income tax evasion.A recent investigation has turned up
the fact that Francis received special treatment by jailhouse employees in a
bribery scheme.The revelation has
caused all hell to broke loose. Three Washoe County jail employees have been terminated and
arrested for receiving gifts in exchange for favors.What favors?Longer time on the phone, protection from disciplinary action and the
ability to have food brought in.
The gifts were large; tickets to the Oakland Raiders games,
a $4,500 Cartier watch, a $5,000 gift card to Sachs Fifth Avenue, $3,200 in
cash, a big screen T.V., an entertainment system, plane tickets and the list
goes on... How was Joe able to get all of these gifts funneled to the
guards?Girls Gone Wild producer
Aaron Weinstein was the delivery man.
Weinstein, 45, was arrested in L.A. Friday for his part in
the bribe scheme and charged with three bribery counts following a grand jury
indictment in Reno on Friday.He
faces up to 2 years behind bars plus a $250,000 fine if found guilty. Oddly, Joe appears to have escaped without any additional
legal ramifications, thought he is still on the hook for his income tax woes,
currently out on bail while awaiting trial.]
Oh, irony. I'm sure Aaron Weinstein is thrilled that he might go to jail for helping his friend in jail. I still think Francis should have to film himself nude and hawk the footage on cable television to pay for his crimes. But more jail time would be good too!
Would you like to know how Mischa Barton is doing? Well, according to Ashton Kutcher (of all people), everything is great! Good to know. Details:
[Mischa Barton may be in a psych ward being held against her
will on a 5150 hold, but according to her new boss Ashton Kutcher, she's
"doing great." Speaking at a technology conference in Pasadena, California
on Friday, Kutcher said, "I can tell you right now Mischa Barton is doing
great." Ashton is the executive producer for Mischa's new show The
Beautiful People. There were talks that they were considering replacing her
because she isn't reliable, but Kutcher is denying the reports and claimed that
she will soon fly to New York to join the cast of the show.]
I'm not sure it bodes well for Mischa that Ashton is the barometer of her mental health. Look at his step kids - he hasn't done much to help them! Kidding, kidding. Seriously, it's lovely that he's standing by Barton - but I'm still suspect of his motives... It seems a little odd to go from psych ward to set.
[Photo Credit: It's a shame someone didn't intervene when all she needed was a nap and a sandwich.]
Jennifer Lopez - aka Jenny from the Block and/or J.Lo - has turned a corner and, for once, her face arrived before her ass. Ha ha. Jennifer is now 40 years old, y'all! Maybe she'll simmer down a bit, though somehow I doubt it. I do love Ben Affleck's timing regarding talking about their past relationship so close to her birthday. Way to go, Ben! Learning a few passive aggressive tricks from your other ex, Gwyneth Paltrow? What will be J. Lo's next move? Will she gracefully fade into obscurity or will she go out kicking and screaming? Will she class it up or still try to go all "sex bomb" on us? Let's go to Vegas and bet some odds!
[Photo Credit: Well, the hat is a nice introduction to old age. Happy bj bday, Jenny.]
So juicy and I'm sooo curious. Another fantastic blind item, courtesy of Crazy Days & Nights. Now, if this were "real life" I'd be able to tell you the info right off the bat. I know a couple who created a very similar scenario for themselves and it made for some mighty interesting small town gossip! However this Hollywood setup currently has me bereft of answers. Thoughts?
[This is probably one of my all-time favorites. I have heard
so many things that nothing really gets my jaw to drop, but this is one that
did. Then I started thinking about the participants and I was like yeah, yeah,
I could see that and sure that person is a freak, but it is still really
juicy. So, anyway there is a husband who is a C list movie actor. Honestly, he
may even be a D, but he has B list name recognition and is married to a
permanent B list television actress with A list name recognition. Well, it
turns out they like to get their freak on with this other couple. Yes, exactly
like it sounds. They swap. The other couple consists of a guy who is definitely
D list and does primarily movies now. As for his name recognition? Not that
great. His girlfriend on the other hand is a B list movie and television
actress not exactly known for being super friendly even to her boyfriend. She
had a very short term boyfriend prior to the D lister but he wasn't up for the
game so she dumped him and went with the D lister she could control. This
foursome has been kept quiet for about a year, but the D lister has started
telling a few people who have told more and it isn't so hush hush anymore.]
Please Jessica, for the love of god, don't satiate John Mayer's bootie call. He will use you and you will be sad. That's my advice. Why am I worried? Well, here are some details:
[Since John and Jessica broke up in June 2007 - John
continued to text her. "A few weeks he even wrote a song for her," a confidante
tells In Touch. "Jessica liked the attention from John because she never really
got over him." Although John kept sending flirty messages, it wasn't
reciprocated by Jessica. "She stayed true to Tony, believing he was the one,"
the confidante explains. "She truly loves him." Jessica became frustrated when she realized Tony wasn't
going to marry her. "It really bothered her," the confidante adds. Jessica will only date John Mayer on one condition - that
he won't just treat her as "a sex object.. She wants a real boyfriend who will
commit. John thinks there's still a lot of unfinished business between
them," a friend adds.]
I'm sure there's unfinished business. He's got to torture her with that all-important alleged song he wrote and he won't rest until she hears it. The trick is that the guitar is in his pants and she has to strum it with her fingers. Oh, there's a microphone in there too! Steer clear, Jess.
[Photo Credit: She dated him when he had that horrible non-hairdo. She should get a medal.]
Jessica Simpson, I think we need to go back to the basics! What's going on, girl? It's pretty clear that Tony Romo was willing to do just about anything to get away from Jessica - but leaving her in an IHOP parking lot? That's truly a new low. Details:
[Tony Romo was looking for just the right moment to finally
kick Jessica Simpson out of his life - and he found it an International House
of Pancakes in the middle of Texas! During a three-hour car ride tensions
between the two reached a boiling point. "They'd argued a lot over the past several months. This
time, Tony barely said a word," said an insider.
"He suddenly pulled into the parking lot of an IHOP and
growled 'get out.' Jess got out and slammed the door. Before she could say
anything, Tony peeled off. She ended crying her eyes out for the next two hours
while she waited for someone to come pick her up. If she didn't realize it before, she finally got the
message that Tony had reached his limit."
Tony had fet obligated for months to keep the floundering
romance going because Jessica had given him a $100,000 speedboat for his
birthday. But the night before her birthday, Tony checked her cell
phone a found secret text messages from John Mayer. She and Mayer had
reconnected at a June birthday party for Pete Wentz.
Tony was upset, "but relieved that he'd finally found the
reason to be rid of her," said the source. "Now he's writing a check for $100,000 to cover the cost of
the speedboat gift and washing his hands of the whole mess."]
I'd like you to note that this alleged incident took place before her Ken & Barbie themed birthday bash. This wasn't even the time he ultimately dumped her - nor was it enough cause for her to tell him to fuck off. There's a difference between a welcome mat and a door mat. The worst part? I think she was crying so hard that she didn't even eat any pancakes.
[Photo Credit: Look in the mirror and tell yourself, "I love you." Then take a deep breath and tell both Tony Romo and John Mayer to go to hell.]
It turns out that Paris Hilton isn't a whore - she's just playing a character, silly. Ah, that explains a lot. Now, if only I believed a word of it:
[Paris wants all of us to know that the Paris Hilton that we
see and have seen in the press, is just a character that she's made up. She's
not real. She says that she's getting rich and making bank over being that
bubbleheaded blonde bimbo, but that's not who she really is. That was the
"character". In "One Night In Paris", she was just playing a "role". She also said that while she was promoting her new
documentary, "Paris, Not France", that she was unaware that the sex tape
portion of her character's life, was actually left in the movie.]
Hey, if you buy all that, there's also a bridge I'd like to sell ya!
Bradley Cooper is on a dating tear - and it's getting a little odd. First Jennifer Aniston, then Renee Zellweger and now... Denise Richards? Did he blow his whole paycheck from The Hangover? Perhaps the acting thing isn't working out and now he's a paid escort. I'm running out of theories. I was pleasantly surprised with the news of a possible hookup between Bradley and Jennifer, though that was extremely short lived. I was a bit confused with the brief Renee Zellweger dinner date. But Denise Richards? What the fuck? We've veered into the Twilight Zone. Here's a few details from the duo's dirty deeds:
[Bradley Cooper's love life just got a whole lot more
complicated. Just days after his dinner date with Renne Zellweger - and
Jennifer Aniston before that - he broke bread in Beverly Hills with Denise
Richards! The cozy couple shared a table at Il Cielo for almost two
hours on July 6. "They never stopped talking," a source tells Star. "Denise
was smiling at him, giving him her undivided attention." And Bradley dished it back: At one point, he even leaned
over to wipe some sauce off of her face with a napkin! It's enough to make you
lose your appetite.]
LeeAnn Rimes and Dean Shermet have split up? Stunning news. LeeAnn has allegedly been having an on/off again affair with Eddie Cibrian - umm, in case you hadn't heard! Eddie's wife has recently left him. I guess she finally got sick of eating bullshit? The non-surprising development of the Shermet/Rimes separation will presumably leave LeeAnn and Eddie to pursue their dirty, clandestine love on a full time basis. I guess congratulations are in order?

Trouble in paradise? Say it isn't so. Alright, enough with the quaint song lyrics. Let's get to the dirt! Apparently all is not well underneath the flimsy exterior of Fergie and Josh Duhamel's 6 month old marriage. Perhaps Josh has realized Fergie's face will continue to melt as she ages? I always thought they were an odd match - and it turns out they might be finding that out for themselves first hand. Details:
[Six months after their wedding, pals say the Hollywood
hipsters are fighting to save their marriage because he wants children, and she
won't give up her rock star lifestyle! "[They're] clashing night and day and they're desperately
trying to get a handle on their problems, a close friend told the Enquirer. "Publicly, they've painted a picture of sheer bliss, but
behind the scenes, cracks in their young marriage are beginning to show."
"[Josh] is a traditional guy, and he wants a family," the
friend said. "[Fergie] doesn't seem capable of slowing down long enough
to really consider children," the friend added. "She's the toast of the music
world... and has an incredibly hectic schedule touring, recording and
performing. There aren't enough hours in the day for everything she
wants to do. Plus, she's a major partier."
A recent incident at Cinespace brought the couple's issues
into the forefront, a source told the Enquirer. "Fergie looked so drunk that night that she was basically
throwing up as her security team escorted her out through the kitchen," the
source said. "She'd been pounding back vodka and tequila. Josh was
nowhere to be seen that night. You'd never think she was a newly married
woman!"
"Fergie is completely caught up in being a rock star... Josh
is still madly in love with her, and she loves him. But Josh wants Fergie to
grow up."]
I'm glad this "close friend" has so much insight into the private lives of the newlyweds! I would suggest that Fergie get pregnant immediately. Have we learned nothing from the mistakes of Jennifer Aniston's union to Brad Pitt? Get with child and lock down your dude down, pronto. Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it! I don't want Josh to be swept away by a sexy costar with claws. Megan Fox, I'm looking to you.
Of course you would! Brian Austin Green has put his multi-million dollar mansion up for sale and The Real Estalker has photos. Sweet. Now you can check out where the award winning actress has been bent over every which way to Sunday. What's that you say? Well, she's not award winning yet but with all her whining about people focusing on her sexuality, I'm sure she'll search for the perfect role to prove her acting chops. In the meantime, parts that highlight her boobs and ass will have to suffice. Sorry, world. By the way, who knew acting on Beverly Hills 90210 would have paid so handsomely? Does this mean the duo is splitting up or looking for even bigger digs to coexist in? Lord knows we'll never get a straight answer from Fox! We'll have to wait until those handy paparazzi camp out in front of their new home for evidence...
[Photo Credit: Click on the link for up close and personal photos with details! Go ahead, explore every nook and cranny. Brian has.]
Just when you thought you could quell those rumors of a Kristen Stewart/Robert Pattinson romance... Kristen herself awkwardly stirs the pot. She claims the press can ask her anything they want, while at a press conference - then refuses to answer whether or not there's any offscreen action happening between her and Rob. Oh, and the stress of fame must continue to come at her in waves. She's so frazzled that she couldn't even primp to get ready for her time in front of reporters. Nice touch, K-Stew. Her Joan Jett hairdo is doing her no favors, by the way. Meanwhile things seem pretty tame at Comic Con. If this is the reunion that was supposed to reignite the passion between Kristen and Rob, I'd say it's a fail.
Lindsay Lohan showed up at Millions of Milkshakes last night. How do we know this? Because she called the paparazzi herself to alert them, of course. I'm curious what the thought process was on that one, "I'm starved... for attention. I know! I'll go make a milkshake and call the media." That makes perfect sense - if you're an allegedly drug crazed former starlet. You might also remember Millions of Milkshakes as the place Miley Cyrus loved to frequent with former boyfriend, Justin Gaston. Oh, the glory days when he would feed his underaged lover ice cream. Where is he now? Back to LiLo - this is her post, damnit! Justin was always an attention hog. Anyways, in case you're curious, Lohan showed up, made a shake and named it after herself. Would you like to drink some creamy Lindsay? That would be vanilla and chocolate swirls with Oreo cookie crumbles. Sounds like it would go perfect with vodka! Click here for photos of La Lohan hard at work creating her masterpiece.
Kendra Wilkinson, who can barely write her blog, is coming out with memoir, to be released next year. Well, that makes perfect sense. She's all of twenty four and obviously has loads to say. Here are details, in case you need confirmation of the downfall of our society:
["The memoir will be a humorous, relatable,
fish-out-of-water tale that captures the spirit of one of the most beloved
Playboy cover models in history," says the release. Adds Jennifer
Bergstrom of Simon Spotlight Entertainment: "Kendra is so genuine and funny
that her memoir is sure to be unique, refreshing, and a reflection of the woman
so many people have fallen in love with."]
She'd better get dirty about her time at the Playboy Mansion - I'm talking serious details. I want the real behind the scenes dirt! And please hire a ghost writer, Kendra. I don't think I can handle entire chapters of this:
[My 24th birthday was probably the best birthday ive ever
had!!!!I was surrounded by the
people i love most in the world and they all made it sooooooo special. Hank told me we were going out for a low key dinner just the
2 of us, but then he surprised me with all of my family and friends at Mastro's
in Beverly Hills!!!!!!!!I was
seriously SO surprised....i had no idea lol.My mom, my brother Colin, my grandma, Hef & the twins,
Brittany, Mykelle and a ton of my other friends came out to help me celebrate! It was the best surprise ever!!!!!!!We all had so much fun.]
[Photo Credit: Click on the link for a gallery of Kendra's birthday photos.]
I just received this press release. Most are pretty boring, but every once in awhile there's one that's just too funny and I'm compelled to share. In need of a job? I might have the opportunity for you:
[The contest, located at www.OnlineBootyCall.com/contest,
will run from July 1 until October 31 of this year. Contestants must submit up
to 5 pictures and answer 3 brief questions by July 31st in order to enter the
competition. There are only 8 more days to enter the contest before the
elimination voting rounds begin. The winner will receive a $50,000 modeling
contract and will participate in OBC promotions and events around the country.
More than a cosmetic makeover for the site, the New Face of OBC winner will
personify the hip and edgy lifestyle of the OBC brand.]
I'm personally thinking this might be the perfect chance for Paris Hilton to expand her franchise, in a manner of speaking. Perhaps Hayden Panettiere might like to throw her hat in the ring? She's legal now! Hey Rubenstein, maybe Jon Gosselin needs a new job - he sure seems anxious to spread himself around. The possibilities are indeed endless! Who's your pick to be the face of OBC? Come on now, don't be shy!
[Photo Credit: Hey Jon Gosselin if you'd let me represent you, you'd be in this photo instead of just salivating over it. Send your check or money order to: I'm happy to take your cash, douchbag. PO Box 666]
Is it a publicist's job to take money from any douchebag who walks in off the street? Because if so, I can do that! Jon Gosselin has hired the high-powered NYC PR firm, Rubenstein. Apparently the check has already been cashed - when asked about his "relationship" with Star magazine reporter Kate Majors he replied, "You'll have to call Rubenstein." Really? We can't surmise for ourselves that Kate #2 is crazy? Let me tell you that said PR firm also represents Donald Trump, David Letterman, Alex Rodriguez (A-Roid) and Christie Brinkley. You know, people who have actually done something with their lives, who all have talent and actually need representation. Yes, I'm even including The Donald in that group. Jon? He's helped some lady with a toilet brush for a hairdo shit out a bunch of cute kids. What's next on his list? I'll guess we'll have to call Rubenstein to find out!
[Gwyneth Paltrow is that kind of person who likes to stay
friendly with her exes. Especially her ex Ben Affleck. Friends tell FOX411 the star is big on sending personal
notes and gifts for births and other major celebrations, and Ben and his wife
Jennifer Garner have been on the lucky receiving end of such gifts.
"Ben and Jen got one of Gwyneth's famous notes this year
just after Seraphina was born," says the insider. "It was very nice, but it was
a little too personal. Gwyneth made sure to mention how she was happy that Ben
was finally creating the family he had always wanted, a family, which the two
of them discussed in depth when they were dating. It just rubs Jen the wrong
way."
But that's just the beginning of Paltrow's
too-close-for-comfort behavior. Gwyneth has enrolled her children, Apple and
Moses, in the same Beverly Hills school that Violet Affleck attends, according
to our source.
"Luckily, Gwyneth and Chris are barely in California three
months out of the year, so Jen should not have to run into her too often at
school," says the insider. "The other moms already have a problem with the
paparazzi following the Garner-Afflecks, and Gwyneth Paltrow will only make the
situation worse."
So far Garner, and Paltrow's husband, Coldplay singer Chris
Martin, are playing it cool with the Ben/Gwyneth thing. Martin is so laid back,
says our source, he actually promotes Gwyneth to stay in touch with Ben. And
Jen is taking his cue. "Jen will always allow Ben to have contact and friendship
with Gwyneth," the pal says. "But she doesn't always like it."]
I'm sure Chris Martin is cool with Gwyneth focusing attention on Ben - anything to keep it off himself! Paltrow seems like the type to stir the pot. Even though she most likely doesn't want Ben for herself, she loves to show how refined she can be - she especially loves letting others know about it. It's probably a passive aggressive move to put Jennifer Garner in her place. Paltrow has a special way of making people feel bad with the written word - apparently no one is immune to her "charms."
[Photo Credit: I'll bet Jennifer Garner wishes he'd popped Gwyneth's head off.]
While Megan Fox has managed to annoy the shit out of me, I do think it's funny that Angelina Jolie has to deal with a sultry, younger doppleganger. Do you think it was fun for Jennifer Aniston to be replaced by a hotter version - and to have Jolie's name attached to hers for the rest of Jen's life? We can safely guess the answer is "no" on that one! Not that Megan has stolen Angie's man - not by a long shot - but she is trying to steal Jolie's thunder. Megan is even gunning for some of Angelina's coveted roles, so the gauntlet has definitely been thrown. While I would love to see a public catfight between the two, odds are that Jolie is too savvy to comment. She's the ice queen who's above it all, which makes the following quote pretty suspect. Still, a girl can dream! Check it out:
[Allegedly, Angelina replied, "Is she aiding in Africa or
sitting in on U.N. conferences? Donating herself to something bigger than
Hollywood? I'm not familiar with her work, is she an Oscar contender?"]
I highly doubt there's an ounce of truth to this, but it's entertaining nonetheless. Meanwhile, recent rumors claim that Megan has turned down a role as a Bond girl - something Angelina was allegedly up for as well. Can't we throw these two together in an action movie, with Angelina starring as the mother and get it over with already?
Jon Gosselin sures knows how to pick 'em - first scandal
ladened Hailey Glassman (to whom he is supposedly engaged) and now Kate Major,
a reporter for Star Magazine. Kate Gosselin must have kept Jon's penis tucked
away in saran wrap - he sure seems anxious to use it now! Despite Jon's rumored
engagement, he might already have another lady on the line. Here are the
details, courtesy of Bitten & Bound:
[Kate Major, senior reporter for Star magazine, resigned
Thursday morning citing a conflict of interest between the magazine and her
relationship with Jon & Kate Plus 8 star Jon Gosselin. The announcement
comes on the heels of Gosselin's other gal pal, Hailey Glassman, gushing about
her romance with the not-yet-divorced reality star. 22-year-old Glassman is the
daughter of the plastic surgeon who performed Kate Gosselin's tummy tuck. She
and Jon reportedly became engaged while on vacation together in St. Tropez, and
were spotted earlier this week holding hands and getting cozy at a park in New
York where Gosselin recently leased an apartment. Major, 26, was photographed
with Gosselin leaving a New York restaurant on Saturday, where the Star
magazine reporter was doing a story on the reality show dad. "I didn't
mean it to happen; it just did," Major said. "I went to do a story on
Jon and ended up falling for him." Jon and Kate #2 were spotted holding
hands yesterday in Southampton, where they have been staying with Lindsay
Lohan's dad, Michael Lohan.]
Isn't hanging out with Michael Lohan the death-knell to
dignity? Jon Gosselin seems to be on the fast track to Dirty Town. A Lohan, a
Star reporter, a 22 year old alleged pot fiend fiance, a love triangle and an
angry not quite ex-wife? And to think, it's not even Melrose Place. Hell, it's
probably better than Melrose redux! Congrats Jon on your ability to handcraft a
real life soap opera.
[Photo Credit: Jon with Kate Major. I love Evil Beet's
theory that Kate Major and Michael Lohan are in cahoots. Sounds entirely
plausible with those two characters!]
Vince Neal has taken a page from the Bret Michaels book "How To Fall On You Ass In Concert" (Fake Book Covers, I'm looking to you) - unlike Bret however, he wasn't a whiny little bitch about it. Watch the video above to see Vince take a dive mid-concert. Thanks to Entertainment Lawyer at Crazy Days & Nights for taking one for the team. He's watched the footage and pointed out that the fall doesn't happen until, ironically, 4:20. So don't torture yourself with the entire thing - go straight to the good stuff. I had an opportunity to meet Tommy Lee once, by the way. It was during a phase I was enjoying very much - my odd sense of humor lead me to a brief affair with purple eyeshadow and leather pants. It was during said phase that I had the chance to meet Tommy. Despite my lack of mall bangs and hairspray, I'd like to think that the purple eyeshadow would have upped my chances of a hookup. That and the fact that his dick is so huge I would have bumped into it just by walking into the green room. Have you seen that sex tape he and Pamela Anderson made on their honeymoon? Holy shit. Instead I chose to stay home with my roommate and fantasize about how awesome it would be if sushi restaurants delivered. You know, either or.
The CW is set to air the reincarnation of Melrose Place, starting this fall. One of the stars is Ashlee Simpson, so there's already a strike against the program. The trailer is brief and I have yet to decide if it will be a guilty pleasure or a stinking pile of crap. My sense is edging towards the latter. What do you think? As Evil Beet mentioned, the most pleasurable thing so far is listening to the trailer music (Britney Spears), which doesn't bode well. Good thing Pete Wentz is so successful - Ashlee and baby Bronx might need the paycheck. Oh wait, what's Pete up to these days? Aside from reliving his glory days with Michelle Trachtenburg...
Who knew Gisele could feel bad? The supermodel with the mile long legs has been known to haunt her husband's ex - but it looks like sometimes the shoe is on the other foot. Gisele has taken a looming presence in the life of Tom Brady's ex, Bridget Moynahan. Bundchen is often seen toting around Bridget's child with Tom - something that surely breaks Bridget's heart. Ironically Gisele deals with a similar situation, as she often has to face the specter of her ex's on again/off again girlfriend, Bar Refaeli. Not only has Bar been with Gisele's ex love, Leonardo Di Caprio, she also shadows the supermodel professionally. It's rumored that Gisele ended her long-term contract with Victoria's Secret after learning she might have to share the runway with Bar. Now Refaeli has swiped another contract: the model is the face of Rampage clothing line - a spot Gisele occupied as recently as this spring. Not only that, Bar is touted as "the younger Gisele" in the modeling industry. That can't sit will with Bundchen! I'd feel bad for Gisele, but that would be tantamount to feeling sorry for Gwyneth Paltrow. It just isn't done.
[Photo Credit: Bar Refaeli for Rampage. Click here for a photo comparasion of Bar and Gisele's clothing campaigns.]
Katie Price and the Sex & The City sequel? Say it isn't so! Katie Price, in case you don't know, is a U.K. "glamour model" who also goes by the name Jordan. She's going through a high-profile trashtastic divorce right now from Pete Andre. Katie is known for being tacky in general - yet she somehow manages to make loads of cash. Caught up? She's been trying to invade America for years, with limited success. Sounds like she's looking for a break with Carrie Bradshaw and Mr. Big - and I am not happy about it. Even though this is coming directly from the source, I still doubt the validity. Price seems like the type to lie for a little publicity. Here are the details:
[Recently I went to LA where I was doing my acting lessons
for 'Sex and the City Part 2.' They want a big-breasted English glamour girl
and I have had the audition."]
Well, she's got the big breasted part down. Could she also be in competition with her nemesis, Victoria Beckham? Posh is also rumored to be up for a role in the hotly anticipated sequel. There are several versions of the SATC script floating around, in an effort to prevent plot leaks. One version suggests that Big cheats on Carrie - and he might be cheating on her with a character played by Katie. I shudder at the thought! Click here for a few more details, if you don't mind possible spoilers.
[Photo Credit: Thumbs up - nudity. Thumbs down - Katie's involvement in SATC, especially if it's to mount Mr. Big.]
Kendra Wilkinson, of all people, has chimed in on the Jon & Kate Plus Eight hiatus - and how she won't be watching when the family returns to the air in August. Here's what she has to say:
[We don't watch that anymore," she tells E! News.
"I watched back when it was good and they weren't all Hollywood. I feel
bad for the kids."]
Interesting, especially considering that she and her husband just got signed to a second season of her reality show - which is said to heavily focus on her new family with Hank. How will she handle that situation?
["That will be all private," she told Us. "I
want to be able to spend my quality time with what's been growing inside of me
for nine months!"]
Funny - it seems that the whole purpose of the new season is the arrival of the baby and how Kendra will handle it. In fact, a special episode in December will focus on the birth of the new bundle, due on Christmas Day. That child will end up on television, when the price is right. One thing Wilkinson has going for her is her sexy/ditzy charm. She can always claim she forgot! Kate? Not so much...
[Photo Credit: Is there a Hollywood baby all up in it?]
Did you ever wonder why Nicole Richie broke off her friendship with Mischa Barton? Because of Misha's drug use! Wasn't Nicole a user and abuser back in the day? In fact, I seem to remember a certain DUI incident in her past. You know, the one that would have put a normal person in jail? Well, it turns out "sympathy" must not exist in Nicole's vocabulary. A friend in need? You can count on Nicole to not be there. She's put a lot of distance between herself and her former pal, using a liberal dose of judgement along the way. More? Why, yes:
[Nicole and Mischa used to be really close friends, but after
Nicole started a family with Joel Madden, she stopped associating with Mischa
because she didn't want to be around "negative, unsafe behavior. In the last few years, her dark side has really come
out," says the source, who is close to both Richie and Barton. "Her
friends, like Nicole, want to be supportive but they really can't be around her
too much. She's too volatile."]
Nicole was also quick to dump (and shame) former party bud Lindsay Lohan. In addition, she helped instigate a text war between Lohan and on/off again girlfriend, Samantha Ronson. Sounds like maybe Mischa's better off with out Nicole - and that's saying a lot!
Did I miss the part where the world tipped on it's axis? Reportedly Sarah Jessica Parker, the dyed in the wool lifelong New Yorker, has moved to Brooklyn. Not only that, she's moved to Brooklyn without her husband, Matthew Broderick. I guess the baby girl twins didn't act as a band-aide? More:
[Sarah Jessica Parker is celebrating the birth of her twins
by moving out of the New York apartment she shares with her husband Matthew
Broderick. SJP and Matthew have been married for 12 years and have three
children together, but they've decided that living apart is the best thing for
their kids right now. Really?
A source said: "It would be a surprising decision to make so
soon after the arrival of their twins. Having the babies born healthy and happy
was a dream come true, so it's strange that they might have to spend some time
apart at this stage. "No one can quite believe it, but it's clear they're
making the right decision for all the right reasons." Matthew will remain at
their New York apartment, while SJP moves to Brooklyn. She's already reportedly
purchased a multi million-dollar nine-bedroom home in Brooklyn.]
A nine-bedroom home? Sounds like she's planning on having company! Interesting development. The separation doesn't come as a surprise - rumors of trouble between the couple has been bubbling for awhile now - but the timing is rather shocking. Let's get SJP back on the market. I'm dying to see who she'd choose to hookup with...
Evan Rachel Wood and shyness are not synonymous - and these latest photos do nothing to disprove that theory. Does the carpet match the drapes? Why not give us a show? I guess I'll have to call my good friend Marilyn Manson to find out. When Evan's not focusing on getting naked and stealing men, she also acts. She'll be hitting the Broadway stage with Alan Cumming for Spider Man: Turn Off The Dark. The adaption will be directed by Julie Taymor and will feature the music of U2. Wood will be playing Spider Man. Naw, just kidding - the only webs she weaves are those of deceit. Rather, she'll be playing Mary Jane - the role Kirsten Dunst made famous on the big screen. Coincidence?
David Byrne, the brilliant musician, had a chance to make the world a better place - and he didn't do it. Hey pal, The Talking Heads were great but that was awhile ago. Time for another contribution. David, who is an avid cyclist, almost knocked over Paris Hilton while riding one day - but chose instead to swerve. And to think, I used to have respect for this guy!
[David Byrne of the Talking Heads is writing a memoir
chronicling his experience as an avid bicyclist, and in one excerpt of the book
talks about almost running over Paris Hilton with his bike. Almost? Sounds like
someone wasn't trying hard enough. Writing in his forthcoming memoirs, Bicycle Diaries, Byrne
recalls, "(Hilton was) holding her little doggy, crossing the street
against the light and looking around as if to say, 'I'm Paris Hilton, don't you
recognize me' (New Yorkers) have enough brains not to walk in front of a
truck, but they'll step right into the path of a cyclist, thereby initiating a
game of urban chicken."]
With Hilton it was probably more like a game of urban selfish whore, but I'm not one to nitpick. David, next time you have a chance to run over Paris, please do not hesitate!
Kendra Wilkinson has clearly become the breakout star of the former Girls Next Door pack. While I love me some Bridget (Marquardt), it's Kendra whose career is taking the airwaves by storm. Her show on E! has already been picked up for a second season, with some special episodes set to air in December. Since debuting in June, the program has settled into a respectable two million viewers a week. And, since meeting now husband Hank Baskett, Wilkinson has settled into a respectable life of her own. Marriage, monogamy and a baby on the way? Who would have thought the wildest girl would go domestic? Well, as domestic as Kendra can handle, given that she's never been on her own and still doesn't know how to do anything for herself! Congrats to you, Kendra. Meanwhile, GND alum Holly Madison continues to shake her business all over Sin City. Her tits have been the selling point for her role as Bo Peep in Planet Hollywood's Peepshow. Her overall bid to take over Vegas? Well, we'll just see about that!
[Photo Credit: A homemaker in training! Who knew? This spectacular photo reminds me that this is the same girl who claims she's never waxed before, by the way.]
Kevin Spacey did a guest spot on David Letterman's show last night and tried to explain Twitter - with some pretty hilarious results. Dave calls 'em like he sees 'em - now if only Kevin were up to that challenge! Twitter is taking over the world, so why is it that Facebook is the social networking site getting a movie? Letterman may have dubbed Tweeting a waste of time, but I think it's a helluva a lot of fun. Why not follow me and find out? It's easier than getting into Paris Hilton - just click the "T" icon on the left. Shameless plug number 102!
Sienna Miller is making the rounds to help promote the craptastic G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra. Though she's had experience in this arena, she got nasty with a radio DJ when he asked about her personal life. It's his job to ask - it's her job to retain composure about the decisions she's made and still promote her career. Sorry, Sienna - you publicly flaunted an affair with a very married man. What were you expecting? Here's an excerpt from the interview:
[The mouthy blonde, in Oz to promote new sci-fi thriller GI
Joe: The Rise Of Cobra, told Aussie station Fox FM's reporter Adam Richard to
"piss off" and called him a "douche bag". During the phone
chat, alongside US co-star Rachel Nichols, Sienna snapped: "You've called
us scrags, bitches, knocked-up. We are not here to talk about him (Getty). But,
yes, I know him and everything's good, thank you. What a scoop!
Congratulations! You're really, really clever!" Richard apologised: "I didn't mean to step on your
toes." But Sienna hissed: "You're going there."]
Granted, the premise of the interview was to help get word out about the movie and the DJ was told not to ask Sienna about her personal life. But hey, you can't blame a guy for trying! We know Miller is lacking a bit of class - I just didn't realize it extended to her career as well.
Congratulations to Brandi Glanville for finally waking the fuck the up! How does the coffee smell? Brandi, in case you don't know, is the wife of Eddie Cibrian. Eddie's been having an affair with LeeAnn Rimes. Glanville has finally decided to leave her husband after a prolonged public humiliation. A few deets:
[At first Brandi stood by her man and said that LeAnn would
not come between their marriage...but now she is saying "Eddie and LeAnn deserve
each other."Keep in mind that
earlier this month 24-year-old model Scheana Marie Jancan surfaced along with
speculation that Eddie was also involved with her. What did it for Brandi?A pal of LeAnn's, Jeff Berger has been said to be enabling
the relationship and that the two met at his home on July 17.Apparently that was the last straw for
Glanville.]
And more: ["Eddie and I have decided to take some time
apart," says Glanville, 36, mother of Mason, 6, and Jake, 2. "I want
to do what is best for our children. Eddie and LeAnn [Rimes] deserve each
other."]
I hope "time apart" means "divorce." This guy is having affairs left and right - he is not into you or your marriage. Take the kids and run.

The only thing these two should be arguing about when it comes to meat is over sausage and how much energy he's expending giving it to her. Who cares what the kids eat? Angelina's been known to let them eat Cheetos, as well as a variety of junk food, whenever they want. Are we really gonna throw our arms up over a little protein? This story doesn't ring true - big surprise! I'm sure Brad's committed to the environment through his vegetarianism - but a bigger commitment to helping the world would be shrinking his (and his family's) carbon footprint. Ahem! And, as far as health, Brad, an avid smoker and drinker, doesn't have a leg to stand on. Regardless, here's the latest on the couple's alleged squabble:
[According to the Daily Mail newspaper, Brad -- who has been a
vegetarian for decades -- wants Jolie and their children to give up meat. But Angelina, 34, is against the idea. "Brad hates seeing the children eating meat and he's annoyed
with how much red meat Angelina has," a source dished. "He goes on about the damage caused by methane gases from
cattle and that the family should go veggie but Angie says that's never going
to happen."]
I'm not surprised that Angie's a committed carnivore. Usually she saves her flesh eating for men, but everyone knows a balanced diet is important. Hey Brad, if you want domestic harmony, why not try eating fish?
[Photo Credit: They look happy here - must have been a vegan meal.]
One more thing to add to my quickly growing list of why I don't like Katherine Heigl: she's crazy. Here's the scoop:
[Did it take 35 takes before you got the dinner scene [in
which she has a huge orgasm] right?
Katherine Heigl: Hold on. It didn't take
35 to get it right, it took 35 set ups to film the scene. Which is a different
thing. I got that on take one, thank you very much. [But] it was a nightmare.
And let me tell you, ladies, these were fake orgasms but... can you imagine? 'I'm
very method.' [Laughing] That would have been a terrible day! I know you're
phoning that one in!' [Laughing] It's really just physically exhausting. It's
so much physical movement, the legs dancing under the table, all the tensing up
of the body, and by the end of the day I felt like I had done a marathon. I
thought I had run 20 miles. Then I went, 'Okay, no I get why it's called
physical comedy.' Because it's so physical and it's exhausting. No one wants to
orgasm 35 times.]
There she goes, bashing on her coworkers again! In no way was it her fault, it was the set up. Got it? I love how she corrects the interviewer. The nerve of suggesting Katie could do any wrong! However, there is a glaring imperfection in that quote: everyone wants to orgasm 35 times. It's just Heigl and her uptight bitchiness who doesn't think it's necessary. Her husband must be having a lot of fun.

Britney Spears has been on the mend, thanks in large part to her father's assistance. It seems that all is well in the house of Spears - Brit's dad is actually considering stepping out of the picture! Here's the update:
[Sources tell us Jamie Spears will ask the court to review
the terms of the conservatorship after her concert tour ends in November. Jamie
can't ask the judge to end it -- just to review it. The judge then decides if
Britney should regain control of her life. We're told Jamie thinks Britney is
ready to roll on her own. He has made her life his full time job since
February, 2008. Fact is ... if it weren't for the tour, given Britney's
progress, the judge might already have made the decision to undo the conservatorship.
The various vendors were promised under their contracts that the
conservatorship would stay in tact throughout the tour.]
Not only that; she's actually dating an appropriate man! My, how things have changed. Brit has been linked to her longtime friend and manager, Jason Trawick, for the past several months. A stable man with a job that the family approves of and who isn't out to latch on to her fame? Why Ms. Spears I never thought I'd see the day! Click here for a photo gallery of the happy couple.

Oh, have you been waiting for this day with baited breath? Well, it's almost here! Kevin Federline is in negotiations with the E! Channel to star in another reality show with live-in girlfriend, Victoria Prince. His first shot at TV stardom was, of course, Chaotic with his former wife. Will he stop bleeding Britney dry if he actually gets a job? Naw, probably not. Will he stop eating Cheetos like they're Flintstone vitamins once he sees his enlarged form on the screen? Possibly. He seems to have thrown restraint and dignity out the window, but vanity still might have a fighting chance. E! rules at the dirty but fun reality television, so this project stands a chance. Though the deal isn't firm, bets are being placed on the title. My vote is to go classic with an age-old favorite: Fat Guy In A Little Coat. Your thoughts?
Remember when Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore were talking about taking a Twitter hiatus? Don't you wish they'd gone ahead and done that? I sure do! I don't know where they find the time, but it's overwhelmingly annoying. And if they've hired assistants to Tweet for them? Well then that's just downright creepy. Gotta give them credit: it's one way to keep their names in the press without even having to work. Apparently all I need is $250,000 to put into plastic surgery and a Twitter assistant and I'm on my way. Very exciting news! Look for me at Diddy's White Party next year...
She can't see his Z-list nowhere-ness and he apparently can't smell her desperation. Either that or he's such a pussy that her passive aggressive threats are working. I'd believe any of these combinations. With no further delay, let's celebrate the possible engagement of Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jamie Kennedy!
[Rumors are flying this morning that Ghost Whisperer co-stars
Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jamie Kennedy got engaged on Friday night.The comedic funnyman was performing at
the Laugh Factory in Long Beach, California when he asked his lovely actress
girlfriend to join him up on the stage. JLH was happy to oblige.When she hit her mark a man from the audience shouted,
"Marry Her".Kennedy reportedly
dropped right down onto one knee and asked for her hand in marriage.She gave him a big grin and
accepted.As you might well
imagine, the crowd jumped to their feet and gave the newly engaged couple a big
standing O. We love this story but now word has surfaced that it may be
one of those urban legends that never really happened, or worse yet, occurred
but was a planned prank.No
official confirmation from either of their rep's has been forthcoming.]
I have one question: Does anyone care? It's a requirement of Jennifer's that she must become engaged to whomever she's involved with - it doesn't seem to matter to her if she makes it down the aisle. The fact that she's willing to date Jamie Kennedy, much less marry him, is the biggest warning sign I've seen. The "ewww" factor is off the charts.

Jackass star Bam Margera has been released from the hospital after a four day drinking binge. Wait, are those guys still filming? No, that's the setup for his real life - and he's not in college! Bam felt it would be a good idea to drink a shitload for four days straight - without eating or drinking enough water. Why? Because his marriage might be falling apart. Oh, well I'm sure his wife feels better about things now! Details courtesy of his direct communication with TMZ:
[The "Jackass" star blames the "4-day
bender" on martial problems, telling us "I may get a divorce ...
booze helps." TMZ also spoke to Bam's mother -- who told us Bam's wife
Missy called 911 because she was worried about his health after learning that
he popped an Ambien during the drinking bender. Margera says his kidney and
leg muscles were a mess from not eating or drinking enough water -- but the
hospital flushed out his system and he was released to his home after speaking
to a psychiatrist.]
This ain't no dare and Johnny Knoxville is nowhere in sight. Be careful, Bam!
[Photo Credit: Bam sent this to TMZ after getting released from the hospital.]
Cameron Diaz is still apparently a hot ticket! She's allegedly involved in a tug-of-war, with both Jude Law and Leonardo Di Caprio expressing interest. Umm, I'll believe that when I see it, but okay. Well, add another guy to the mix - enter Seth Rogen! Never fear, this one's work related. Cam and Seth were spotted dining out together recently, sparking rumors that Diaz might be in talks to costar with Rogen in The Green Hornet. I guess negotiations to star in the flick went swimmingly, as the two were seen eating off each other's plates. Huh?
[Life & Style can report that Cameron Diaz and Seth Rogen
have been spending some casual time with each other in the last few days at
LA's Chateau Marmont. Their get-togethers fuel further speculation that the
actress may star opposite Seth in the upcoming movie The Green Hornet. An eyewitness tells Life & Style that Cameron, with
longer blonde hair and dressed in dark skinny jeans and a blazer, was at the
hotel on July 15 talking to a group of women in the dining area. Cameron later
joined Seth at his table on the patio with two other male friends. "Cameron greeted [a very slim] Seth with a hug before
sitting down and spending the rest of her evening with them," says the
witness. "All appeared to be laughing and joking with one another as
drinks were bought to their table." Around 11 p.m., Cameron and Seth left
the hotel with another friend, and the two "seemed to be having a private
joke with each other as they walked out giggling." Then on July 17, Cameron and Seth were back at the Chateau.
"They were having a private dinner, just the two of them," an insider
tells Life & Style. "They obviously get along well, because they were
eating off each other's plates."]
Don't worry, Cam's not jumping on the train just because Seth's slimmed down. She's after the project, not the guy:
[But before one reads anything deeper, the insider adds:
"While they looked really comfortable with each other, it didn't seem
romantic. I got the impression that they were talking about a project." In the movie The Green Hornet, which is due for release next
year, Seth is slated to play newspaper publisher Britt Reid, who fights crime
as the masked title character. Cameron is reportedly in talks to play the
movie's female lead.]
I think that would be a good match professionally, as they both excel at bringing a goofy charm to the screen. The only question that remains is, who will she bring to the red carpet premiere? Knowing Diaz's track record, it will be a completely different set of options...
By all accounts Gwyneth Paltrow was a right bitch during the filming of Iron Man 2. Allegedly Paltrow did not get on well with Scarlet Johansson - their relationship complicated by the fact that Gwyn was most likely worried about getting pushed out of the way for the younger starlet. Looks like some of those fears might be coming true - the sanctimonious GOOPer was recently left off the cover of an recent issue of Entertainment Weekly. If it were anyone else but Paltrow, I'd feel bad for her. Given who were talking about? I'm thrilled.

If you call him your boyfriend, he will come. If you call him your boyfriend repeatedly in front of his friends while he's right there, he's guaranteed to stay! Sounds like Kate Hudson's got a plan. The actress showed up late to a dinner, joining her fling and his friends - and girlfriend wasn't shy about letting them know the status of her relationship.
[In case there was any doubt, Kate Hudson is making it clear
that she and Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez are officially an item, Life &
Style has learned. On July 19, the couple dined with friends at seafood haven
Lure in New York City, and Kate revealed to the table that Madonna's ex is now
her boyfriend. "Kate kept saying things like, 'My boyfriend this, my
boyfriend that,' when referring to Alex," an insider tells Life & Style.
"She was talking about him even though he was right there. I think the people they
were with are Alex's friends, because Alex and the others were already there
when Kate showed up around 10:30 p.m. A-Rod and his guests had gotten there
closer to 9:45." The couple have been dating for about two months. In June,
Kate was seen at a New York Yankees home game rooting for Alex, and earlier
this month, the duo were spotted dining together in New York. Soon after, they
spent time with Kate's 5-year-old son, Ryder, at The Resort at Pelican Hill in
Newport Beach, Calif.]
Oh, Kate! I love your sunny optimism. I also love your bizarre attempt to show ownership of A-Rod. What happened in the safety of her well heeled upbringing that made her so needy?

Jude Law and Cameron Diaz? Who woulda thunk it? Rumor has it they hooked up during the filming of The Holiday while Diaz was still with Justin Timberlake. I would have stepped out on Justin too! Apparently the costars haven't forgotten about each other - they were recently seen stumbling out of a bar in the early morning. Who knows if they're party pals or if they're playing a rousing game of "hide the sausage." I prefer to think it's the latter! Deets:
[Cameron Diaz hit the capital this weekend and looked like she'd had a top
night. The actress was pictured leaving London's Boujis nightclub with a look
on her face that most Biz readers will be familiar with. Doughy-eyed and with a child-like grin on her face, it was clear
Cameron had had more than her fair share of shandies. And who can blame her? She's not long finished touring the globe promoting My
Sister's Keeper, as well as wrapping up filming on new horror flick The Box. (Video) Jude Law was also spotted leaving the club - the actor was
linked with Cameron after she split with Justin Timberlake in 2007. Cameron has been back on the singles scene since breaking up
with Essex builder-turned-model Paul Sculfor earlier this year. I wonder if she took the Law into her own hands?]
Meanwhile, there's a rumor that Jude Law isn't the only one vying for Cam's attention. Allegedly Leonardo Di Caprio is also sniffing around the surfer chick. Why do I doubt this one? Cameron is definitely not his type. Actually, she doesn't sound like a match for either one of those players - but I'm sure it won't stop the sexy time! Click here to see separate photos of drunken looking pictures of Jude and Cameron.

What I assumed must have been rug burn from a serious romp in the hay with her latest conquest turned out to be a work injury. Silly me! Sienna Miller suffered a burn between her breasts during the filming of G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra. I'm still unconvinced it wasn't from a vigorous rubbing of a penis, but however she wants to spin it is fine with me. It's a shame because, from all accounts, that movie is set to be a big flop so she actually would have been better off receiving it from a sex act. Ah, I continue to digress. Here are the details:
[While filming her role as the Baroness in "G.I. Joe: The
Rise Of Cobra", Sienna Miller has suffered a burn to her cleavage. She
reportedly had gotten too close to a controlled explosion. Of the incident, she said, "Luckily it wasn't my breasts, it
was the bit in-between. It got a bit burnt when an explosion got a bit close." She was wearing a black leather catsuit when the incident
happened. She added, "I won't be wearing one again. Squeezing myself into that
with the aid of talcum powder every day for five months was more than enough. I
could barely move in it anyway."]
Too close to a controlled explosion while wearing a leather catsuit? Isn't that called a normal Saturday night?
I can't even tell you how much the Beastie Boys, and Adam Yauch in particular, mean to me. This news makes me very sad. Thankfully it sounds like a treatable form of cancer and MCA will be back to fighting form in no time. There's really nothing snarky I can write about this news - sorry! Best of luck to Adam and his family. I'm hoping for a speedy recovery. He's got to get better - I need a new album and some concerts from those guys, stat. xo
Wow - I thought I was having a bad day! Immediately after breaking a bottle of nail polish on my bathroom floor, I dumped orange juice down the front of my shirt. I still haven't had coffee yet and I feel insane. But apparently someone out there has it worse and that person is Mischa Barton. Her career and looks are both heading downhill fast and the poor girl is not taking it well. Fame can be a bitter pill when it turns on you! Sage words - for a bumper sticker. Here are the details:
[Mischa's publicist Craig Schneider has confirmed that the
actress is still in the hospital after being placed on a 5150 hold.California welfare laws state that
Barton can be held up to 72 hours by authorities if there is a risk of harm.
Barton is reported to have suffered a breakdown after a three day coke binge
and was placed on an involuntary psychiatric hold.The New York Post indicates that Mischa's friend called
police after becoming terrified that the actress was going to kill herself. Sources say that Barton is running out of money and has been
hitting the party scene fast and furious in an effort to forget about her
problems. In recent weeks Mischa's turmoil has been apparent to those
who have come in contact with her.Hotel guests said that they witnessed the actress stumbling and confused
around one of the pools.]
Here's hoping Mischa gets the assistance she needs - and that my day gets better.
[Photo Credit: Yeah, I'm thinking this photo should have been a warning sign!]
I thought Tallulah Belle Willis might turn out to be "the cute one" but now I'm thinking my money is with Scout. Tallulah's looks are veering unsettlingly into Rumer Willis territory - and thats not a good thing. You'd think the last she'd want to gravitate towards would be smoking and alcohol. The used handbag look is never in, you know. Oh, not to mention that she's only fifteen - but whatever to that, she's the daughter of the Willis-Moore-Kutchers! Tallulah was caught drinking at Scout's eighteenth birthday party this past weekend. And when I say "drinking," I mean "trashed." Her antics reportedly overshadowed the Scout's bash. Well, right on! Looks like we might have someone new to discuss in the future! I'm sure she's regretting her decision. Not only must she have suffered a ferocious hangover, she most likely had to endure a lecture from her concerned stepdad, Ashton Kutcher. I think that would be punishment enough! Click here to head over to Evil Beets photo gallery of the evening. Worth the trip - especially to see a scowling Ashton. I think the genetics of the Willis-Moore pairing are proof that Bruce and Demi should have never followed through with their ultimately doomed union. And forcing Rumer on the world of "cinema" is really just cruel to the rest of us.
I thought Nick Lachey would be hot on Jessica Simpson's trail after her unceremonious birthday dumping by Cowboy quarterback, Tony Romo. Either Nick is coy, stupid or a combination of the two. People Magazine caught up with him in Atlantic City - naturally. He's old - what do you expect? Here's what he has to say:
["I think it's fun storytelling, but there's very little
truth to any of it," the singer told PEOPLE at a party at Dusk at the
Caesars Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City Saturday night. "I certainly
have heard about her breakup and I wish her the best, as I've always done.
Aside from that, there really is nothing to say." So has he reached out to his ex-wife since her sudden split
with Tony Romo? "I haven't talked to her in probably two years,"
Lachey says. "I wish her happiness. That's where it pretty much
ends."]
But how will he regain his time in the spotlight? Oh, he's got that covered. Don't you worry - Nick Lachey is a man with a plan. How will he revitalize his career? By releasing an album!
[Lachey has been focusing on his music lately. His new album,
Coming up for Air, will be released this October, and the first single will
come out next month. "It's reflective of a lot of different sides of me.
It's still pop but it's a little more produced. It's weird because music has
changed so much, and as you get older, you have to see where the music scene is
going but at the same time be true to who you are. I can't really go out and do
what I used to do, it's just a different game."]
That's hilarious! He makes it sound like he's getting ready to do an album full of show tunes. I kicked off my day by dropping and breaking a bottle of purple nail polish on a yellow tiled bathroom floor. I asked myself, "Why has the world succeeded in sticking it's collective fist up my anus before I've even had coffee?" Believe me, scorching your nostrils via getting up close and personal with a bottle of nail polish remover is not something you want for yourself. I was feeling pretty pissed off. But then I read about Nick Lachey and now I'm suddenly full of laughter.
Look - Criss Angel is on vacation! But he's a hard working guy - and hard working guys never take breaks. Thusly, Criss is working on a new trick while on holiday - making his penis disappear inside his mystery girlfriend's vagina! It's like magic. You might not see this one on stage, unless you're in Amsterdam, but rest assured Angel is working diligently.
[Photo Credit: Click on the photo credit link for more pictures of Criss and his bikini gal pal.]
Can you imagine having Andy Dick as a father? That seems like cruel and unusual punishment, right out of the womb. Normally I'd say the choice of stand-up comedian is a tough career road - but it seems like this kid's god-given right.
[Trouble magnet Andy Dick got a dressing-down from
his 21-year-old son at Carolines on Broadway the other night. Lucas Dick, a
fledgling stand-up, appeared onstage with his dad and told the crowd:
"I'll come home to find a big party at our house and my father will be
rolling around naked in ketchup on the floor, and I'll think, 'Oh yeah, it's
Tuesday.']
I'd skip the heckling and buy Lucas a vodka. Hell, I'd throw in the whole bottle after what he's most likely been through! (I'm reading Chelsea Handler's Are You There Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea, hence the vodka reference. She's my idol.) Maybe he'll surpass his father's accomplishments and make the family proud. A dignified Dick - that's something I'd like to see.
Brooke Hogan makes Paris Hilton look smart - and that's very scary to me. She makes the Hilton family look so together. At least they like each other! Nothing says "family feud" like an Auto-Tuned single regarding your relationship with your mom. That's a lot of time and money. I just do it the old-fashioned way - by not picking up the phone. Simple, effective and less likely to be trashed in the press. But, as I've mentioned, Brooke's not the brightest bulb. Hence the song route to teach her mother a lesson. See if you can get through the whole video. I couldn't!
What to do if you're going through a high-profile divorce involving loads of kids? Get engaged to be remarried - immediately, if not sooner. And I'm not even talking about Brangelina! It's Jon Gosselin that's had this brilliant idea. Rumor has it that he's bought his scandal-ladened gal pal an engagement ring. Keeping it classy? Oh, yes! It's said to be a skull ring surrounded by black diamonds. That works - if you're a Suicide Girl. He's also purchased a two bedroom apartment in NYC for approximately $1 million. Sounds like he's ready to move on! Not that Kate seems charming by any stretch, and they obviously haven't been in love in awhile - but it seems that it would be prudent to wait until your divorce is final before planning the next wedding. Call me crazy! Or, actually, call Jon crazy. The couple has been dating for about three months and his fiance has been accused of being hungry for fame and money. Sounds like she's on the right track.
In keeping with the Z-list wedding news: Lee Lee Sobieski is engaged. Lee Lee will be getting hitched to menswear designer Adam Kimmel. I love announcements like that: he's not simply Adam Kimmel. He's menswear designer Adam Kimmel, thank you very much. What the fuck does it matter? He'll still be married to a Helen Hunt lookalike. I don't particularly have anything against Lee Lee, but she looks like a young Helen Hunt. And I can't stand Helen, at any age. Hunt makes me want to poke sticks in my eyes, just to avoid looking at her. If I wanted to see a forehead that big I'd go to the freakin' drive-in. Jack Nicholson spoke the truth about his onetime co-star; she just ain't sexy. Anyways, congrats to Lee Lee and good luck to Adam!
Fred Durst is done weeping like a little bitch over Britney Spears - at least outwardly. The former Limp Bizkit "rocker" has done gotten himself hitched. The lucky lady in question is Esther Nazarov. I don't know a thing about her or how they met. All I can fathom is that love must truly be blind. Now we finally know - he actually did it all for Esther's nookie. Click here for a photo of the happy couple.
[Photo Credit: I'm actually surprised this didn't pan out, given Britney's awesome taste in men!]
Kim Kardashian has brokered a deal with NASA. Rumor has it they're going to study her ass and it's projectile proponents, making NASA's opportunity to go green a reality in the near future. Heh heh. Who knew having a large rear could make a girl so dang happy? And who knew it could give you such a lift? High maintenance Kim Kardashian hits heights - with the help of a trampoline and great big smile. She gives new life to the term "junk in the trunk." I'm guessing her (rumored) fiance, Reggie Bush, has no complaints.
I find Ryan Seacrest to be pretty damn annoying. You'd have to work hard to irritate someone who's already this grating. Guess who's found a way to do it? Our gal, Lindsay Lohan! With her career heading south more quickly than Samantha Ronson, Lohan thought she'd found a savior in Ryan. The only problem is the girl has no patience. I hear Coke can do that to ya! Here's a little tidbit:
[Insiders whisper Ryan's now admitting he's had second
thoughts about launching a reality show with ditzy diva Lindsay Lohan! After
two face-to-face meetings, Mean Grrrl started bombarding the busy host with
needy phone calls, and here's the shocker - she actually begged him to take a
break from his LA morning radio show for a heart-to-heart chat! Said a source:
"Ryan's the busiest man in show business, and he should have known better than
to enter Lindsay's world. He's now saying that compared to Lindsay, working
with high-maintenance Kim Kardashian is a low-Maintenance job!" Now for the REAL shocker: Pals snicker that despite her
current taste for all things Sapphic, La Lohan's developing a "thing" for
Seacrest. Reportedly, he has "zero interest." (REALLY??)]
While my respect for Seacrest is nil, no one can deny that he's got major clout in Hollywood right now. I love that Kim Kardashian seems low maintenance compared to Lindsay. Not exactly a compliment, but insightful nonetheless! I think what Lindsay was really developing was an interest in her reflection via Ryan's ability to possibly put her back in the spotlight. I think she's effectively shelved that opportunity!
[Photo Credit: I hope the deal still goes through. I think it could be one of the all-time greats for reality television! Come on Ryan, don't be such a pussy.]
Well, Kendra Wilkinson's got your answer. She calls it "sealing the deal." I call it "laying down the law." To each her own. Here's Kendra's non-answer advice:
[The answer to this question is simple...go with your
instincts!!!Do whatever feels
right at the time. If u wanna give it up on the first date, then all the power
to u LOL.Chances are a guy wont
judge, despite what some people might tell u.As long as youre not the type of person that will be kicking
yourself in the ass over it later then what the hell!Why not?!? hahaha. Don't do something just because you think youre supposed
to.Act based on how youre
feeling.If you want to go for it
right then and there, then I say DO IT!LOL.But if it takes 5, 10
or even 15 dates, then that is absolutely ok too!!!!!! Every person is
different and we all move at our own pace.If a guy has a problem with that then chances are hes an
idiot that you shouldn't be dating anyway!]
Which one do you think Hank and Kendra chose? I'm not a betting girl but I'd be willing to put down money that it wasn't the 10th or 15th date!
If Lindsay Lohan looked this good in real life, she might not have such difficulty getting work. Lindsay posed for Spanish Vogue - and the results were interesting. A mixed bag of Marilyn Monroe, Madonna and a dominatrix - combined with LiLo's liberal sprinkling of freckles. A taped up outfit doesn't exactly hide her skinny frame. Victoria Beckham must be very jealous! Lindsay's one-day shoot didn't keep her out of trouble for long - she returned stateside awhile ago and her partying ways have yet to subside. Labor Pains, her project that was supposed to be a film that ended up on TV, is debuting soon. I'm sure some kind of celebration will be in order! Click here for a gallery of Lindsay's Spanish Vogue pictures.
Whip It is Drew Barrymore's directorial debute, starring Juno cutie Ellen Page. I think this film is at least six years too late on the girl's roller derby trend to be considered cool. That topic is pretty played out, at this point. However, Drew has a good eye and has assembled a kick-ass cast. I think it will be fun, despite the somewhat dated topic. It's good to see Ellen Page again! Check out this trailer and let me know what you think.
I'm so sick of the term "cougar" - it's overused and annoying. That said, if it fits... Tony Romo not only dumped Jessica Simpson on her birthday, he was caught making out with another woman later that night! I'd heard Tony was partying, which came as no surprise. But his fling with a 43 year old actress? That one is new to me! Poor Jessica's head must be exploding. Here are details, courtesy of Star Magazine. I know, I know - but it's salacious, so let's give it a go.
["Tony was in a really great mood and toasting his new
bachelorhood. And at one point, four hot women came over to his table and were
pouring shots of vodka in his mouth," an eyewitness tells Star. "He looked like
he was on the prowl." Tony caught a cougar later that night, hooking up with
43-year-old actress Michelle Johnson at a gathering she threw in the penthouse
of the Sunset Marquis Hotel. He arrived around 2 a.m., and "from the moment he
got there, he was all her," says a partygoer. "They were kissing and she sat in
his lap." In the wee hours of July 10, he made out with actress
Michelle Johnson (Melrose Place, Tales From the Crypt), ex-wife of former
baseball star Matt Williams, at a party at LA's Sunset Marquis hotel!
As for the reasons behind the Jessica Simpson split: "Tony
had been telling pals for months that Jessica was always nagging him about
getting married," says an insider. "Also, she was upset that he didn't have
concrete plans for her birthday. She wanted to go on a tropical vacation, but Tony
wasn't into it.. Jess was acting like a child about it, and that was the last
straw."
Another source says: "Nick Lachey still carries a torch for
Jessica. He's been texting her a lot lately and said that they should get
together...and she's always had lingering feeling for him."]
Those are the lightest "acting credits" I've ever heard of - I could beat that! Anyways, from Tony's previous behavior, his dirty little hookup doesn't surprise me at all. What else doesn't surprise me? Jessica nagging him right out of the relationship with her desire to get married. There must be something to that - both Tony and John Mayer moved on immediately after breaking up with Jess. Remember when John couldn't wait to get away from her? She and Nick will reunite. It's the only shot they'll have for both unconditional love and revitalized careers. Who can beat that?
[Photo Credit: Tony and his "cougar." They say the hookup occurred after 2 AM. I can see why.]
Every time I see Ryan Reynolds, specifically his abs, I think Scarlett Johansson is a very lucky girl. Then I see a photo of her and I think Ryan is a very luck guy. I just can't decide! Who got the best deal out of this ridiculously adorable union? Despite my innate jealousy of Scarlett's score, she's on my good side of late. Rumor has it that tensions were high on the set of Iron Man 2, due to Gwyneth Paltrow's dislike of Johansson. That tells me Scarlett's doing something right. Here's a sneak peek of Scarlett as her Black Widow character for the Iron Man sequel. It's hard to believe someone as "perfect" at Gwyneth could experience jealousy, but if the shoe fits...
Renee Zellweger struts her stuff in an odd shirtless ensemble. A winter coat, no top and an "I feel so fresh" spring to her step - complete with eighties looking heels. I think the lack of a top is twofold. It says, "Yes, Bradley Cooper is mine and look what he's getting." It also says, "I have a waist and don't you forget it." Renee will be reprising her role as Bridget Jones, which requires the pin-thin actress to gain actual pounds. I think she needs to jump into bed with Bradley to ensure she gets maximum action before those unsightly rolls return. I still can't believe the ridiculousness surrounding the "piling on of the pounds." Renee chubby is the size of a normal woman. Oh, the horror. I like Zellweger's plucky spirit here. We'll see how long her victory lasts...
[Photo Credit: Nice outfit. I might have to try that one.]
Ivanka Trump is engaged! But not just any old engaged - she's getting ready to wed a billionaire. He must really love her if he's prepared to take on The Donald as a father in law. Here are the deets:
[Ivanka Trump got engaged to her longtime beau Jared Kushner
last night. "I'm very happy about it," Donald Trump tells
Usmagazine.com. "They make a magnificent couple." The couple have
been dating since 2007. They briefly split, but reconciled in July 2008. Trump, a vice president at the Trump Organization, converted
to Judaism for Kushner, the publisher of the New York Observer.]
Jared is a Harvard grad. Prior to his admission, his father donated $2.5 million to the university. Well, that's an interesting coincidence. Prior to my admission to college, my folks handed me a card that said, "Keep in touch." There are some serious similarities here. It's starting to creep me out. Here's a bit more, courtesy of Wikipedia:
[In July 2006, at age 25, Kushner paid $10 million to
purchase The New York Observer, a weekly newspaper popular with New York's
well-educated elite.]
That's so weird. I paid some bucks and started my own website. I think the billionaire and I are simpatico. Ivanka Trump has stolen my man! Oh, it's a New York style bitch-fight now.
[Photo Credit: Well, they are a cute couple. I might let this one slide.]
Oh rumor mill, you never rest! Today we still have nothing more than that - simple hearsay. Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler? Jennifer and Bradley Cooper? Jennifer and Brad Pitt - via steamy sexts? The speculations never cease when it comes to Jen's love life - and, in my opinion, Gerard hasn't really lent an clarity to the situation. Despite having issued a denial, I still think they're "doing it." Call me up, Gerard and tell me I'm wrong - please. Here are a few details, via People Magazine. They cleaned up the swear words - I didn't. You know I don't give a fuck about that shit. Anywhoo:
["That is just annoying. People say I'm always dating so
and so, and sometimes it's three people in one day," says the actor, 39. "I'm trying to make movies, work hard and do my best.
Then this kind of thing happens and people start to associate me more with
that. It gets ridiculous. She is one classy lady," he says of
Aniston. "Everyday I go to work with her I'm always surprised about how
cool, easy and down to earth and real she is." He adds, "I'm in New York right now filming and I'm in
heaven. I can't always say that about movies, but to be filming this romantic
comedy with Jennifer and a story that made my side split when I read it - I'm
lucky. I'm happy as a pig in s---, as they say."]
Annoyed and delighted? I think he's "annoyed" that people are onto his fling and "delighted" that he gets to stick his penis into Jennifer's vagina. I wish I could spell it out for you, but I think that about covers it.
But, you know, without the whole pop icon/career thing. Mischa's been on a pretty obvious downward spiral for awhile - the alleged partying, the yo-yo weight, the cellulite photos and her attachment to that unfortunate hat - those all should have been warning signs. The drinking and drugging (again, allegedly - I wasn't there or anything) has wreaked havoc on her once charming "It Girl" looks. Some beauties, like Sienna Miller or Kate Moss, can get away with a less than healthy lifestyle and still maintain. Others... not so much. I don't know what Mischa's been up to, but shit has officially hit the fan. Details:
[Mischa Barton was placed under an involuntary psychiatric
hold (also known as a 5150) by the Los Angeles Police Department and
transferred to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on Wednesday evening, a source close
to the situation claimed to Access Hollywood. On Wednesday, Access broke the news that authorities had
responded to the Los Angeles home of the starlet after receiving a non-911 call
from her residence around 3 p.m. A patrol car responded to the scene and began
assisting Barton with a "medical issue," a spokesperson for the LAPD confirmed
to Access on Wednesday evening. According to the code, authorities can hold a
person involuntarily if they present a danger to themselves or others, are
gravely disabled or suffer from a mental disorder. This same code was used to
hold Britney Spears twice in Los Angeles in January 2008.]
She'll be missing the "world premiere" of her new film Homecoming. I think, in fact, most people will be missing the flick since it will likely go straight to DVD after the limited theater release. Regardless, enjoy the clip above and say a little prayer for Mischa's speedy recovery. No one deserves this - even if she did ruin The O.C.
[Brad and Angie hope to reignite the passion - by going
backwards in order to save their troubled relationship! Back to where it ALL
started. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie fell love on the set of
Mr. & Mrs. Smith - and now they hope to save their troubled relationship by
making sequel! "They're hoping lightning will strike twice and they can
re-spark the magnetism that captivated them five years ago," close family
friend told The ENQUIRER. "It's no secret that relationship-wise, Brad and Angie are
on the ropes. The stress of raising six kids and juggling two red-hot careers
is wearing them down." "The romantic action film was penned by screenwriter Simon
Kinberg. He's become close friend of the couple, and Brad's asked him to write
the Mr. & Mrs. Smith sequel. This time around the Smiths will have children, and the
kids' antics will be part of the story line," said the source. "He's hoping they'll fall love all over again... to get their
relationship back on track and refocus on loving each other."]
It must be awesome to be a celebrity, other than the obvious perks. Apparently instead of going to marriage/relationship counseling like the rest of us, Brad and Angelina can get a studio to front the millions to reignite their love. Awesome. Meanwhile, Brad says "no way" to taking snapshots of Angie's rear and posting them on the Internet. Probably because she would punch him. Is Ashton listening? Most likely not!
[Wired magazine asked Pitt what he thought of tweeting a
picture of his wife's butt like Ashton Kutcher did of Demi Moore. He responds
"Don't take a picture of your wife's butt. That's silly. Take pictures of other
people's wives' butts."]
Hear that? If you're married and in the vicinity of Brad Pitt and his cell phone, you just might have your photo taken. I'm getting hitched and heading to L.A. immediately.
[Photo Credit: He'll grab it, but he won't photograph it - at least not for public consumption.]
Can these two cut the crap? Or are they incapable of letting up on this alleged charade - even for a second? I guess the answer is no, on both counts. Would you like to read more about Will Smith and Jada Pinkett's insatiable love life? Because you're about to:
[When you have three kids, you've got to take your
opportunities when they come. In a limo, on the way to the Academy Awards this
year, Will started looking at me in this way that drives me wild. We started
kissing passionately, and the next thing I knew, well, let's just say we missed
the red carpet and I ended up with almost no makeup on.]
Really? You missed the red carpet for the freakin' Oscars because you couldn't keep your hands off each other? And you were willing to go nearly nude (in the face area) on the biggest industry night of the year - after surely spending hours and hours to get ready - because Will looked at you in a certain way? I'm sure Will is a fantastic lover with a mile long cock but nothing - and I mean nothing - can convince me that these two fame whores were willing to show up at the Academy Awards looking less than perfect. And, as it's been pointed out on nearly every other celebrity-based blog: if you constantly have to remind us how awesome your sex life is, how great can it be?
[Photo Credit: Jada kinda looks like Mel B here. Maybe they like dress up and role play! I'm sure we'll hear about if they do...]
Only in Courtney Love's twisted world could you reunite a band - without inviting or alerting the other members. Maybe she thinks she's gotten their okay, but it's really just the voices in her head. Rumor has it that Courtney is planning on releasing a solo album. The only problem, other than the fact that it probably won't be very good? She wants to call it Hole. Here's what Hole co-founder, Eric Erlandson has to say. Read on:
[We have a contract.She signed a contract with me when we decided to break up the band,
which was like 2002 or something, so I really don't have a comment on it except
that I know my part in that band.The way I look at it, there is no Hole without me.To put it blunt.Just on a business level. Somebody told me (about Love's plans) and it just sounded
like something...it just sounded like the usual.I love her a lot and I wish her the best, and I'm open to
discussions regarding the real Hole, and if she has a solo album together, I
think that's great.I think she
should finish it and put it out and do that.]
I would assume that the word "contract" and subsequent definitions probably don't have a lot of meaning in Courtney's world. On the other hand, no one likes to see a lawyer coming their way unless they're on the instigating end. And Love's nothing if not an instigator! Good luck, Eric.
[Photo Credit: Back in the day, when she was cool. Not necessarily lucid, but cool.]
The Emmy nominations are in... and guess who is nowhere on that list? I'm not saying it's her, but check out this juicy tidbit from Blind Gossip:
[Of course everyone is excited to discover who will get an
Emmy nod later today. What isfar
more interesting, though, are the preparations being made for one potential
non-nominee. Her staff is gearing up for the worst. They have removed all
breakables from the vicinity, and have a bottle of valium at the ready. They
have also instructed all non-essential staff to check the nominations before
coming in to work so they will know whether they should wear regular work
attire or riot gear.]
Interesting! Hayden Panettiere didn't make the cut either. Perhaps it was due to all that overseas cavorting? Just saying! Meanwhile, you can watch the video above or click here for a complete list of potential award winners.
Normally I stay focused on the Hollywood end of celebrity gossip - but this trailer just came my way and I felt compelled to share. It looks absolutely amazing! The premise of Jack White, The Edge and Jimmy Page hanging out and discussing guitars may or may not float your boat - but finding the secrets and inspiration behind genius is always interesting. Let's not forget that The Edge hangs out with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Jack White broke Renee Zellweger's heart, which caused her low self-esteem rebound marriage and subsequent dateless years. (Until she recently got her druthers back and snagged Bradley Cooper - according to tabloid reports.) And Jimmy Page? There isn't enough time or space to cover that man's conquests! But I did manage to sneak in a little bit about movie stars - because I care about you, I really do. By the way Jack's newest new band, The Dead Weather, recently released their debut CD. It's a must.
California's finally caught on to what could really make them some money and possibly secure a way out of their desperate financial doldrums. Step aside Spicoli, the government is coming!
Lindsay Lohan has become such a parody of herself that the
industry can only follow suit. Hustler has produced a porn flick, The Untrue Hollywood
Story, about LiLo's alleged sex and drug adventures. Perhaps she can take it as a compliment? If you ever wanted to see a faux Lindsay have sex with a bunch of people, well, now's
your chance! Couldn't they just hire the "real deal"? I hear she could use a job. She's probably read about the details of this movie and thinks it's great - not like that script with no potential, The Hangover. The trailer is PG and is fairly safe for work. It even features Samantha Ronson and Paris Hilton lookalikes! Welcome to the big time, Lindsay.
I guess beating him to the punch worked wonders! Hayden Panettiere called off her fling with British TV personality (and ladies man) Steve Jones. Apparently that's just what the playboy needed - he recently flew to her side for a transatlantic booty call. I guess she hasn't shown him her bitch side yet. Or maybe she has - I hear guys like that sometimes! Some details for you:
[It was only two weeks ago that Hayden Panettiere admitted she
was no longer seeing T4 host Steve Jones, dismissing their Cannes fling as 'a
bit of fun'. But it appears the Welsh TV presenter, 32, has convinced the
Heroes actress, 19, to give their burgeoning relationship another try after
flying to Los Angeles to visit her. After spending a blissful week together in
London and Cannes in May, the couple appeared to go their separate ways last
month, with Hayden returning to Hollywood and Steve remaining in Britain. But it seems they are trying to make things work, despite
the 5,400-mile distance and 13-year age gap.]
She must be, umm, worth earning those frequent flyer miles! Given that Hayden is so desirable and not like you or I, she couldn't resist revealing how awesome she is in a recent magazine interview:
[In a recent interview with American magazine Seventeen,
Hayden admitting she hadn't a clue about the dating game: 'I don't know how to
date. I'm not good at learning that sometimes you don't like someone in that
way - and figuring out how to deal with that. I don't want to hurt his
feelings.]
I can't wait for Hayden to get dumped on her ass - hard. That will be a good day.
[Photo Credit: BigPicturePhotos via The Daily Mail. He let her pay the dinner bill. What a gentleman.]
You might get plenty of chances in the future! Sandra Bullock scored some big numbers with The Proposal, her romantic comedy with Ryan Reynolds. She credits the box office haul to her nudity. I'd buy that. Here are the details, via The Daily Mail:
[Bullock joked that that she'll be stripping for more roles
following the romantic comedy's runaway success. The actress went on to reveal
the key to 'bringing in the money' is not filming steamy sex scenes - but by
being naked and funny. She said: 'If you're naked and you're trying to be sexy
- you don't really make as much money as if you're naked and you're funny. And
Will Ferrell has been onto that for quite some time. Have you noticed how he
drops his trousers in every single film? I'm going to do that from now on.
Action film - all naked!' The Proposal took $34.1million to open as the
weekend's No 1 movie last month in the U.S. The Disney flick - which sees
Sandra as a publishing executive who coerces her assistant (Reynolds) into a
fake marriage so she can avoid deportation - delivered the biggest opening ever
for the actress.]
Alright Sandra, I'll go see The Proposal - I'm also hoping to get a lingering look at Ryan's famous abs - but I expect you to continue to kick down in the future...
You might want to buy your teen a box of condoms if you're
heading to San Diego's Comic Con - word has it it's going to be pretty wild. The convergence of Avatar and Twilight fans all in one place at one time -
with hormones. Holy Hell. Here are some details, via Gawker, in case your having difficulty conceiving this notion:
[A source working at Comic Con tells us that organizers are
purposefully putting Avatar events far from Twilight events because they fear a
melee between the Fanboys and TweenGirls. What is Avatar about? No one really
knows! But what we do know (or at have at least heard) is that Cameron has
rejected eight different versions of a promotional trailer. So the Sci-Fi
enthusiasts (who generally carry the Y-chromosome) savage from their diet of
Cheetos and Red Bull will be aggressively gobbling up all things Avatar. Should
they get in the way of estrogen frenzied vamp girls, there will be mayhem.]
This is when I'm glad I don't have kids. This is also when I'm glad I don't live in San Diego at the moment, or anyplace crawling with lustful teens. They always snag the last Red Bull and give you dirty looks.
[Photo Credit: Rumor has it that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart will be at Comic Con, adding to the frenzy!]
Josh Duhamel and Fergie (Stacy Ferguson) are heading
towards having babies. She might want to give Nicole Kidman a call before
embarking on the journey. Nicole experienced a little face melting while she
was pregnant with Sunday. Will Fergie be able to withstand the same? Meanwhile,
Josh is hoping to score when his wife gets pregnant - ironically after the
fact. Fergie's agreed to give pregnancy a go twice, so Josh is hoping they're
blessed with twins both times around. I would think Fergie would be amenable to
the idea of having the hottest celebrity accessory - after all, she is a "Pop
Culture Icon." Good luck, you crazy kids!
The Scream franchise has always been pretty fun, so I'm all
for a fourth. Original screenwriter, Kevin Williamson, is back on board and the
big hope is that Wes Craven will agree to direct. Married couple Courteney Cox
and David Arquette, who met and fell in love during the filming of the first
installment, will be back to reprise their roles. Here are a few details:
["I fell in love with my wife on Scream, so the
opportunity to bring Dewey back to life and for my wife to play that really
bitchy character again, it's just going to be really fun," Arquette said.
"It's just great." While Williamson recently revealed that Neve
Campbell has turned down the chance to reprise her role as Sidney Prescott,
Arquette said, "I hope Neve does it. I really hope so." As for a new
storyline, Arquette laughed: "Kevin has sort of put out the broad strokes,
but I don't think I'm at liberty to share any of that."]
Emma Watson, the precious Harry Potter star, is looking to branch out from the popular films. Let's just hope she doesn't go too far! Emma is set to star in a goth remake of Cinderella. But wait, that's not the weird part - her costar is said to be Marilyn Manson. Details:
[Watson is joining forces with the bloated prince of goth to
rework the tale of Cinderella. She is said to be portraying the role of a
princess in the project being penned by Manson. Emma has publicly stated that
she has no "burning desire" to continue acting, but would if a project she felt
strong enough about came up. Apparently, Marilyn has the goods. "Emma really
wants to show there's more to her talents than playing Hermione Granger. She's
saw how Daniel Radcliffe managed to branch out into something completely
different when he starred in 'Equus' and thinks this could do the same for her
- after all, who'd guess she's want to team with Marilyn Manson, of all
people."]
As long as they play nice! Not that Emma would be tempted, but I hope there's no romantic entanglement in the works. Evan Rachel Wood could beat Emma to a pulp - and Manson would probably love to watch. Not a fitting end to a British beauty.
Here's Amy Adams and her cover shot for Allure magazine. It's not flattering. Red hair and reddish pink eyeshadow are not friends. Somehow, they both ended up on Amy. Where are her friends? Who pulls her aside and says, "That's not okay!" Click here for a good case in point. Meanwhile, it doesn't seem to be affecting her career much - she'll next be seen opposite Meryl Streep in Julie & Julia. Not bad for a girl who used to work at The Gap!

From Crazy Days & Nights: [So, imagine if you will that you are a teenage girl and you
have the opportunity to meet your male tween singing crush. Someone who comes
from a singing family, but not as famous as the other part of the singing
family. Imagine you meet this crush and he chats you up and before he leaves
for the night he gets your phone number and you also make out a little bit. So,
your tween crush goes on tour but while he is on tour he calls you and calls
you fairly frequently. You really think he likes you and so when he asks you to
meet him in another state you agree. Of course your mom doesn't agree to let
you go alone but says she will go with you. The tween star is ok with that and
so you make plans, buy tickets (cheap bastard) and book hotels. You get down
there after having spent all that money and he stands you up. No call no
nothing and you never hear from him again.]
Any guesses? It's easy to leave a comment. I'd love to hear what you think!
Conflicting reports are starting to show up on the web regarding the non-surprising breakup of Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson. Why not? Anything non-Michael Jackson related is welcome around these parts. I assumed the blowup between Romo and Simpson was related to her intense desire to get remarried. Turns out there might be more going on behind the scenes, depending on which news source you decide to believe...
Theory one: ["It was a long time coming, he hasn't really been into
her and the relationship for awhile, but stayed together because he didn't want
to look like a jerk for not having a better reason to break it off," said
our source. "And she's trying to save face by saying that it's because of
their busy schedules."]
I don't think it makes him look like less of a jerk by finally breaking off the relationship the night before her birthday. What's one more event or two if you haven't been into the relationship for ages? Moving on. Speaking of which, sounds like what Tony must have said to Jess...
Theory two: [Another inside source said that Jessica's manager/father Joe
Simpson's meddling ways most likely took its toll on the relationship, which is
the reason why they split the first time fourteen months ago. We're told Joe
promised he'd take a step back when the couple reunited but he was still too
involved in his daughter's private life.]
Joe. Simpson. Is. Gross. Entirely possible this played a large role in Romo's decision to end the troubled relationship. Jessica needs to breakup with her father, that's what really needs to happen - she'd be much better off.
Theory three: [Sources claim Romo called it off with Jessica after he
found text messages from John Mayer on her phone! An insider says after Romo
flew in on Thursday for her birthday bash, "They were hanging out and he picked
up her phone and she got defensive about it. Tony found messages from John and
went ballistic. Tony dumped her right then. He walked out and that was it."]
I have mixed feelings on this one. John could be looking for an easy hookup and might assume he could lure Jessica back. That also might explain the abruptly poor timing of the breakup. We may never known who it was on the grassy knoll - but we will get to the bottom of this C list breakup, I promise you!
If you started having dreams of the Armani underwear campaign featuring Angelina Jolie and David Beckham, you can cancel your masturbation all-star double team fantasy - courtesy of Victoria Beckham. Posh gripped Beck's balls and he released the following statement:
["I definitely don't think that's true. Think it's
something put out in the press," said Becks. "She's an amazing person
and so is Brad. They're an incredible couple -- got an amazing family. You know
she wouldn't do it and I wouldn't do it. At the end of the day, I wouldn't do
it because I'm married."]
I think the actual conversation from Vicky to David went something like this, "I'm the star of those ads. If you're in your underwear, I'm the only one who's there. Got it? If you humiliate me, I'll make your life a living hell." - or something equally fun and cuddly. You know putting the kibosh on stripping down to her skivvies wasn't Angelina's idea - she's pro anything that could possibly make Brad jealous. If she were a true humanitarian, she'd do it regardless. Wouldn't Jolie in Armani be good for the world?
[Photo Credit: Angie's got a head start on the now defunct ad campaign.]
Vanessa Hudgens finally plans to strip off all her clothes for a movie. Wow, that was a short "wait." The Disney star was recently quoted as saying that she would consider doing nudity for a film, but only if the part was right. That was, oh, about last month. Did she send her agent on a tear through every script in Hollywood? Because they've found something! Here are the details:
[The High School Musical alum is ditching her
Disney good-girl image to play a hooker in the upcoming Zack Snyder flick, Sucker Punch. "I'm playing a character named Blondie and it's set in
a brothel in the 1950s, so there's not a whole lot of clothes," Hudgens
told U.K.'s Metro "'I think this is my time to really step it up and get
to grow up," she said. "It will be somewhat different with the
content and a few more foul words but that's the biggest difference."]
The only ones who are getting sucker punched in this scenario are the producers who are paying to see her naked. I've already seen that for free - and you can too! (Link NSFW, if you catch my drift.) The quote above is a bit confusing. She seems to be inferring that the only difference between the High School Musical trilogy and Sucker Punch is some content and swear words. Damn, if I'd known there was nudity in the HSM flicks I would have checked out that shit ages ago.
[Photo Credit: The offer for the film came from the rear.]
Damn, for a woman who doesn't know how to dress, she sure is worth a lot of cash! Debbie Rowe, who gave birth to both Prince Michael and Paris Jackson, has recently sold her kids - again. Who knew she had a womb lined with gold? Here are the disgusting details:
[After the birth of son Prince Michael, now 12, and daughter
Paris, 11, she agreed to allow Jackson to raise them in exchange for a lump sum
of $8 million, plus $900,000 annually for five years, the source said. When Jacko was accused of child molestation in 2001, Rowe
resurfaced to reclaim her rights. But she wound up giving her ex-husband full
custody of the kids anyway -- in exchange for another $4 million plus a $900,000
home. This time around, she is forfeiting her restored parental
rights to Jackson's mom, Katherine, in exchange for yet another roughly $4
million, the family source said. "This would be it. This takes away any rights she has to
challenge custody at any given time," the source said.]
Prior to the payout, Debbie was insistent on claiming her children - allegedly fearing they would be abused if they ended up near Joe Jackson, Michael Jackson's father. She must not have been too scared - there is no such language regarding keeping Joe from Prince Michael and Paris in the final agreement. Must be nice to soothe that lack on conscience in all that cash. Debbie Rowe - a one woman evil corporation!
[Photo Credit: Wolf shirts are sexy. Don't let anyone tell you any different.]
Kim Cattrall has broken up with her boytoy, Alan Wyse. Kim's "life imitating art" love affair began in 2003 with the 20 years younger chef. Despite the age difference, the two managed to stay together for quite a bit of time - though Cattrall claims the relationship had fizzled out in April. Kim's famed Sex & The City character, Samantha Jones, is known for being quite wild and sexually adventurous. Perhaps the upcoming sequel is asking more of Kim than Alan would like - or is that just wishful thinking on my part? Either way, she's free. Let the on-set flings begin!
[Photo Credit: It's a shame - they looked cute together.]
No not Hugh Hefner - that is so over! Is this girl desperate or what? Who knew lawn gnomes had a chance? We could have gotten her hitched ages ago! Alas, it's for an ad but I prefer the desperation angle regardless. Holly Madison "wed" the Travelocity Gnome in a quickie Vegas ceremony - approved by a faux Elvis, no less. If she's trying to make Criss Angel jealous, I fear she's failed miserably.
And if so, why? Those are my questions regarding Ryan Seacrest's massive payday. Here are the details:
[The "American Idol" host has closed a major new
three-year deal with CKX, parent of "Idol" producer 19 Entertainment,
worth $15 million per year. Under the pact, which is believed to be the richest ever for
a reality host, Seacrest will be exclusive to CKX in broadcast TV primetime to
host "Idol" or any CKX-produced show that might succeed it. Seacrest
has a separate cable deal with Comcast and is E! Entertainment's lead anchor.
He also produces such shows as E!'s "Keeping Up with the Kardashians"
and ABC's upcoming Jamie Oliver reality series.]
Unreal. How did this happen and how can we stop it? Do you really want this much Ryan in your life? My guess is his non-threatening, coiffed vanilla look has been his ticket to the big time. In fact, he and Hayden Panettiere would make a perfect vanilla swirl. She'd probably waste no time jumping on that action - despite his rumored one nighter with Lindsay Lohan. Notice how his excuse for being over at LiLo's house late at night because he was working with her on her singing career has just as quickly disappeared. Regardless of the big payday, not every area of his life is going well - rumor has it he's made Angelina Jolie's permanent shit list. Congrats Ryan - you'd better be worth it!
You could see this coming from a mile away. Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo are said to have finally split up for good. The couple reportedly got in yet another fight over Jessica's expectations to get engaged - because that's always a good sign! This time the spat allegedly took place the night before her Ken & Barbie themed birthday bash, forcing her to cancel the party. That's certainly bad timing - nothing spells "danger" like a breakup with a big pink cake in the house! I wouldn't be at all surprised if this story were true. Tony's run hot and cold through the entire relationship. Bending to pressure from his teammates, along with rumors of infidelity on his part don't really equal true love. I've got to say that Jessica should be a poster child for the non-purity ring cause. She was a virgin when she wed, but no one can skip the steps of life. Instead of dating, sleeping around and getting her heart broken before she got hitched she's now forced to do so after that fact. I'm sure she'd rather be married, but she's living life in reverse.
[Photo Credit: He's looking pretty pained. Odd, given the plethora of boob he had at his disposal.]
Russell Brand, the U.K. comedian and noted "ladies man", claims that none other than Lindsay Lohan tried to hit on him at Diddy's recent 4th of July bash - but he turned her down. Here are a few details:
["Lindsay is a very good looking girl and she is used to
getting what she wants. Russell has been on her radar for a while now but he
doesn't want anything to do with her. He finds her constant craving for attention and her heavy
drinking a turn-off. It's not like he is short of female attention anyway."]
Kind of sounds like irony to me, given that could have once described Brand himself! Meanwhile, Russell claims he's ready to settle down. Clearly considering Lindsay for that role is not an option. More:
["I'm fed up with having fling after fling - I'm looking for
The One," he said. "I haven't found love yet because I've been looking in the
wrong places all these years. Now I'm desperately seeking her. I'm a bit
worried, as it will be difficult for them. They will have to tolerate my
insanity and madness. I want someone who will take care of me. They will have to be a nice down-to-earth girl who will look after me. It will
be a tough job for her but I'm looking hard now."]
Wow. Hear that ladies? The "world-renowned swordsman" who's put his dick into everything that moves and who also happens to be a former drug addict is looking for someone to take care of him! Try not to hurt each other in the scramble to reach Brand. He'll make his decision in his own sweet time.
Lily Allen is hot for Snow Patrol. Is she aware they're a band and not obvious lingo for cocaine? Just asking. Lily is said to have put the word out that she'd like to "spend time" with Gary Lightbody, lead singer of Snow Patrol - and it sounds like he's happy to oblige. He recently dedicated a song to her during a headlining gig:
["I'm going to sing this song for Lily Allen. She's a great
girl, she's really something. So this one's dedicated to her." Then they launched into Shut Your Eyes to cheers and wolf
whistles from the crowd.]
If he means "she's really something" as in "she's easy" then I agree. It must be handy to alert the press as to whom you'd like to have sex with and let them do the dirty work. Sounds like Gary's received the memo and will be over shortly!
Eva Longoria-Parker claims she likes to be tied up with delicate silk restraints during sex. Isn't getting tangled up in her husband's massive limbs enough? Methinks if you have to specify "delicate" and "silk" in your sex-icon (Get it? Instead of lexicon? That's right - genius is here) that nothing too crazy is going on in the bedroom. Frankly you'd think the fact that Eva is short enough to simultaneously have sex while giving Tony Parker a blowjob at the same time would suffice.
[Photo Credit: It was gonna be an upskirt shot, but she's so short all the photographer caught was the bottom of her chin.]
Noooo! Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham has signed up for a cameo role in the upcoming Sex & The City sequel - she's even going to take acting lessons "in anticipation." Ugh. Apparently she was offered a walk-on part during the last go 'round, but her schedule was packed with rehearsals for the Spice Girls reunion tour. This time, unfortunately, her calendar is clear. I understand that she's a self-starved self-made fashion icon, but that doesn't mean she deserves a spot in the hotly anticipated film. I think her presence has the potential to pull viewers out of the flow of the movie and into real time. It's Sex & The City for god's sake - the audience doesn't want reality. Trust me. The sequel is set to begin filming in NYC this August. I'm dying to see the results of Victoria's acting lessons. My guess is that it won't go well! Either way, somewhere Katie Holmes is very jealous.
Who is a thoughtless whore, a heartless bitch and a teen with penchant for flirting with geeky guys to get what she wants? Hayden Panettiere or the title character from I Love You, Beth Cooper? Turns out you don't have to make the call - it's both! Check out a piece of this fantastically comprehensive review from Film School Rejects:
[You must have realized that you were creating one of the
most unlikable (let alone unlovable) characters in the history of high school
films, right? Beth Cooper as a character should be playing the bitchy girl that
no one likes but is super popular. You attempt to trump her bitchiness and
insanity by having another bitchy girl that attempts to out-bitch her, but
making her seem slightly less bitchy does not make her a compelling love
interest. I'm still struggling to figure out why she's likable. Because she
makes out with a gas station attendant for beer in front of the guy that likes
her? Because she drives super recklessly for no reason? Because she was named
after a KISS song? Because she is heading off to community college (if she can
afford it) and thinks that she's peaked in high school? In fact, the only
reasonable conclusion is that the movie teaches one of the most insidious
lessons of filmdom: If you are really cute, you can be a complete asshole and
still get the geek of your world to dote on you senselessly. Oh, and as if that character wasn't fucked up in the first
place, the casting is so far off I can't imagine what the thought process
behind it was. I can't believe I'm saying this, and I hate myself and you for
doing this to me, but I've never longed to see Megan Fox in a role more than
while watching your movie.]
Apparently Hayden's career will consist of playing versions of herself, which will hopefully be short lived. It's bad when Hayden's trying to vamp her ass off and the reviewer is left longing for Megan Fox. Panettiere, the vanilla of the sexy world. Stick to television dear, it's more forgiving.
[Photo Credit: Yeah, I also think Megan Fox is hotter than Hayden - by a long shot!]
Ryan Reynolds, already the owner of some amazing abs as well as the husband to Scarlet Johannson, has scored another victory: he's now the proud recipient of the coveted Green Lantern role. Ryan was up against Bradley Cooper (who, interestingly, had a role as Scarlet's illicit love interest in He's Just Not That Into You) and Jared Leto (who could really use a break. He last acted with Lindsay Lohan and had to gain 67 pounds for the role of Mark David Chapman in the poorly received Chapter 27). There was also a rumor that the three were pitted against Justin Timberlake, but he's not an actor so I kind of doubt that information. Then again he's not sexy either and we're forced to repeatedly see him with hot chicks, so who knows... Though Ryan has not followed through with his agreement to be more forthcoming about details of his love life, I still think he's a great choice for the role. Bradley Cooper is such a hot ticket right now and I think he would have made an interesting superhero too. Tough call! The superhero franchise is a hotly pursued opportunity - everyone knows it equals big bucks, possible franchise options and loads of exposure. That said, Ryan better kick down some details about naked time with Scarlet. He still owes us...
Oh, if only it were the world according to the National Enquirer. What fun we'd all have! If this were the case, Brad would really, finally, be ready to split with Angie. As it stands, in reality, I kind of doubt it. Not that I'd mind - I think she's ruined Brad - but we've been hearing variations of this rumor for years. Only this time there are allegedly lawyers in the mix. Check it out:
[Brad Pitt has been having top-secret meetings with his
lawyers, as his relationship with Angelina Jolie continues to crumble, it has
been claimed. According the National Enquirer, Pitt apparently used his
recent trip to the West Coast to hold a series of meetings with his attorneys.
"Brad is totally done with the stress of feeling miserable and is taking steps
to get his life back on track," a source told the tabloid. "He realizes that
he's happier alone, when Angie's not around to criticize him and wear him down
with her constant demands. He's been meeting up with his buddies as well as his
lawyers, to get all the options that are available to him in the event of a
permanent split. Many of his business associates are close personal friends as
well as advisers, so Brad normally spends hours with them and his private life
usually enters into those discussions. Brad always smiles when he talks about
his kids -- but he's not so cheerful these days when Angie's name is mentioned."]
Wow, that source sure is knowledgeable! Is that source's name "In Jennifer Aniston's Dreams" by chance? I assume that Brad and Angelina will split one day. It will be unfortunate, due to all the kids involved, but I think Jolie is ultimately too volatile. Or maybe it's wishful thinking on my part. I just really get a kick out of the vision of the scramble when it's finally announced that Brad Pitt is single again. There's going to be some overbooked estheticians and pubic hair technicians that day! Every women will be running for bikini wax, in their bid to claim the ultimate prize...

More total bullshit from Megan Fox. It's entertaining as hell but I'm beginning to wonder if it's some kind of grand psychological experiment. Is she testing the world's shallow meter? Are we all so wrapped up in her looks that it doesn't matter what she says? Does she even bother to check herself on all these ridiculous quotes? It's funny that what's coming out of her beautiful mouth is actually capable of making her less hot. Here's the latest:
["I have 8 tattoos," she said. "My boyfriends are all
required to have one. If they don't have one yet, I make them get a tattoo of
my name or face," she admitted.]
Another Jolie moment for Fox. Hot, bossy and tattooed. She could stop there, but she's seems incapable of releasing a non-conflicting statement...
[Fox, 23, recently revealed that she suffers anxiety attacks
if she sees her own image. "I never look at myself, even in still photographs," she
said. "I panic if there is a monitor in the room. I immediately go into like an anxiety attack. I'm insecure, I think most actors are pretty insecure."]
It's like a game: "Spot the Inconsistencies" - or it least I'm going to turn it into a game, most likely one that involves drinking. Allegedly forcing whomever you date to get a tattoo of your face - and then revealing that you have anxiety attacks whenever you see your own image? A Rhodes Scholar she is not... You know the most exciting part of her day, everyday, is gazing at herself in the mirror. I really doubt she's terrified of seeing her own image. In fact, I'm positive I could find a Fox approved quote to support this fact.
[Photo Credit: Looking pretty good for being afraid to check herself out.]
Bruno kicked off this weekend to huge numbers, making it one of the top opening R rated comedies of all time. No surprise, given the huge amount of work Sacha Baron Cohen put in to promoting the film. Rumors of $50 million by the time the weekend wraps is floating around. In case you're feeling wishy-washy, there are 10 reasons above as to why you should go see this film. I'm already convinced - I'm off to see it today! Might as well add to the $50 million mark. What the hell, it's not like it's Enron. Enjoy. xo
Channing Tatum recently got married - and just in the nick of time. Word has it that his big break, G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra, is said to be absolutely terrible. At least he'll have someone to love him unconditionally through the inevitable career fallout! Channing got hitched to Jenna Dewan - a onetime backup dancer to 'N Sync. She allegedly had a fling with Justin Timberlake back in the day - ironically around the time Justin was "crying a river" because his then girlfriend, Britney Spears, had cheated on him. I told you that guy was hypocrite! Channing and Jenna met on the set of Step Up and have been an item ever since. Here are a few details from the happy day:
[The couple held the ceremony Saturday evening at the Church Estates Vineyards in
Malibu, E! News confirms. (Apparently, you have to be super hot to get married
there--Fergie and Josh Duhamel tied the knot on their grounds in January). More than 200 guests witnessed the nuptials, including Step
Up franchise producer Adam Shankman. Emmanuelle Chriqui served as maid of honor
and Haylie Duff was also in the bridal party. What I Like About You's Nick Zano
was a groomsman.]
Lauren Conrad is a best-selling author! The former Hills star has hit the New York Times Best Sellers list two weeks in a row. Lauren has penned a thinly veiled account of her own life, appropriately titled LA Candy. She can now join Tori Spelling - such illustrious company. Is she going to give her ghost writer any credit, or is she going to lap it up all for herself? I'll give you one guess...
["If someone said to me five years ago when this all
started that I would one day make the New York Times Best Seller list I
wouldn't have believed it," Conrad tells PEOPLE exclusively. "I am so
honored that it is now a reality." The novel, loosely based on Conrad's own life, follows of
Jane Roberts, a 19-year-old girl who moves to Hollywood and ends up as the star
of her own reality show. Although Conrad is used to the spotlight, she's still in awe
over her literary accomplishment, "It was such a compliment to be included
in something with such established names."]
It's great that people are reading, but this sounds pretty paltry. Of course, I've got Bret Michaels "Roses & Thorns" on order so I can probably shut my trap right about... now.
Jessica Simpson turned 29 yesterday! I remember when she thought 23 was old - and she fretted that she was "halfway" to 30. Oh, how the time has flown. Apparently not too much time has gone by - at least not in Jessica's mind. The singer reportedly celebrated with a Ken and Barbie themed birthday bash. All I can say is... how appropriate! Happy Birthday, Jessica. Speaking of time - I'm sure her clock is ticking. Tony Romo better shit or get off the pot. Ah, romance!
Joel Madden is an animal! He can't be contained - not even by earth angel, Nicole Richie. Yes, Nicole has rehabbed her image and I do believe she's doing a lot better - but I still think there's a little bit of "the bitch" that lingers. You can't have survived a decade of being best friends with Paris Hilton and not emerge with a black mark on your soul. Regardless, she does seem to put her all into being the best mother possible to the adorable Harlow Winter. Is Joel following the same parental guidelines? Not so much. Madden seems to desperately want out of the cage he's created for himself. The man who once said, "We let love plan our babies" is out on the prowl. Apparently he's feeling a little trapped - and he might be looking for solace in the arms of another women. Geez, I should quit this biz and start writing Harlequin Romances. Sorry about that. Anyways, here's the scoop. It's via TheEnquirer, so take it with the proverbial grain of salt.
[While pregnant Nicole Richie sat home with 18-month-old
daughter Harlow, boyfriend Joel Madden spent the night "drinking and flirting"
- and then exchanged phone numbers! - with a sexy, tattooed brunette at the
Hollywood club Guys & Dolls, an eyewitness told The Enquirer. A disc-jockey gig turned into a raucous boys' night out -
acting "out of control and definitely behaving like a single guy," the source
told The Enquirer. "Instead of staying home with pregnant Nicole, he was acting
like a total tool - smoking, drinking Red Bull and vodka, and buying drinks for
a woman at the club who was hanging all over him."
"He was definitely acting like a complete Hollywood player."
Joel started the flirting, says the insider - and the
tattooed beauty flirted right back. "She twirled her hair and kept leaning in
closely and whispering in his ear. Joel smiled at her, touched her, and bought
her a Heineken. And that was all she needed - she hung onto him for the rest of
the night." The two even exchanged phone numbers.
"It was such a tacky thing to do in front of people who knew
he had a girlfriend at home waiting for him," continued the eyewitness. "I'm
sure he had some major explaining to do when he got home."]
I love the part where he was acting like "a total tool." I wasn't aware that lexicon had made the jump to print. Awesome! Despite the source, I think there could be a smidgen of truth to this rumor - this isn't the first time he's been accused of behaving less than appropriately, given his life choices. I've got to say, it sounds like he's landed some quality snatch. He bought her a Heineken and that was all she needed? Sounds like a winner! Good luck with this one Nicole, I think you might need it.
Sorry for the delay y'all - Jennifer Aniston paid for me to take the day off. Whoops - that wasn't me, it was actually the crew of The Bounty. Damn, that just means I'm late. Well, it was a generous act, regardless of how it's affected me. Jen, the tortured tabloid soul, treated crew members to an extra day off over the 4th of July. She paid the tab out of her pocket so that everyone could have a four day weekend, starting on July 2. Details, as if you need them:
[The actress made sure the entire cast and crew of the film
started their Fourth of July weekend on Thursday, July 2, a day earlier than
expected, by footing the bill for everyone's salary so they could have a
four-day holiday. "Jen is such a genuinely good person," says one
crew member. "How many people in this world would pay for an entire movie
set to have off for the day? Not just anyone does that. We're talking big
bucks."]
Aniston has been in New York, filming The Bounty with Gerard Butler. She's chilling out on the Bradley Cooper front while theories run rampant: Were they ever together? Did Renee Zellweger "steal" him? Does Jen even want Bradley or is she cozy in the arms of Gerard? Is her alleged affair with Butler the impetus for the extra long weekend? Who the hell cares? I think one thing we can all agree on is that this is the direct fault of Nicole Kidman. Nicole was supposed to take the lead female role in Mr. & Mrs. Smith, but dropped out at the last minute. You know the rest! Jennifer would have never come across as needy and overexposed had Nicole followed through with her commitment. Damn you, Nicole, damn you.
Well, they both want it - I sense a fight! Okay, not really (the fight part), but you and I both know that from here on out this project will suffer the endless vagina jokes. As if this couldn't get any more odd: Jodie Foster has picked Mel Gibson as her leading man for The Beaver. I'm sure the name must be somewhat intentional - look at how easily the press gears have been lubed greased. Here are the details:
[The film, which topped last year's "black list" of
awesome-but-unproduced screenplays, is about a man who "wears a beaver
puppet on his hand that he treats as a real person. Those familiar with the
script have compared it to Lars and the Real Girl and the work of Charlie
Kaufman," according to the Hollywood Reporter. Foster is set to direct and
co-star as the beaver-handed Gibson's wife.]
If this film ends up resembling the work of Charlie Kaufman, then I'll be tempted to see it. If it ends up mimicking Lars and the Real Girl then I'll want to kick this movie in the nuts, much like I wanted to do to Ryan Gosling after seeing that bullshit flick. Actually, I'll probably skip seeing it entirely. For some reason, I'm just not a big Mel Gibson fan. Go figure. I do applaud the original content versus another remake or storyline about a toy.
Paris Hilton is finally having her day in court - again. This time it's to face allegations that she didn't do enough to promote her film, National Lampoon'sPledge This!, despite being one of the flick's producers. She, of course, claims she did everything she possibly could, despite not being aware of her duties. You do remember that she is the busiest person on the planet, right? It was all she could do to barely fit in the words "pledge this" amidst her busy schedule - it's just unfortunate that it happened while her mouth was full of cock. Speaking of dicks - what's happened to Doug Reinhardt since Paris dumped him? I'm beginning to suspect she had him killed - it's been awfully quiet out there...
It seems like we've just barely gotten past the endless promotion of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Don't get too sad - we'll be hearing from Megan Fox again any second. She's probably home right now - you know, the pad she's shares with Brian Austin Green when she's not pretending to be single - brewing up conflicting sound bites for the press. She's got another movie to launch after all! Megan will be heading the cast of Jennifer's Body about a vampiric cheerleader. The flick is penned by Juno scribe, Diablo Cody and also stars Amanda Seyfried and Adam Brody. I'm sure Amanda is bummed to take second billing to a lesser actress again, but I'm confident her time is coming. Click here to see the trailer - it looks awesomely creepy.
You should have reined this one in a little tighter, Sarah Palin! Levi Johnston, in addition to knocking up her daughter (possibly twice), has now become a loose cannon quote machine. I, for one, am loving it! Here's the scoop:
[In an interview with the Associated Press, Johnston, the
19-year-old father of ex Bristol Palin's baby, said he believes Sarah Palin
resigned as Alaska governor for financial reasons. Johnston - who lived with
the Palin family from early December to the second week in January - said he
heard the governor several times say how nice it would be to take advantage of
the lucrative deals that were being offered, including a reality show and a
book. "I think the big deal was the book. That was millions
of dollars," he told the AP. (Palin does have a book coming out, but
financial details behind the deal haven't been released.) In a fiery statement, Palin family spokeswoman Meghan
Stapleton shot back: "It is interesting to learn Levi is working on a
piece of fiction while honing his acting skills."]
It hurts when your own game comes back to bite you in the ass, doesn't it Sarah? She's happy to dish the spin, but she can't take it from a teenager? This is the woman who wanted to run our country! You know it's got to be killing her that she can't shut him up...

Hayden Panettiere is quickly working her way towards "complete bitch" - and she doesn't seem to care. Hayden's penchant for older men, sex and desire to flash her overdeveloped labia in a white bikini - none of those things are a problem for me, in fact I welcome them. It's her snotty little attitude that's pissing me off. She's currently in the news because she's got a terrible movie to promote - I Love You, Beth Cooper - but instead of making nice, she's making nasty. Here's the scoop:
["It wasn't like I suddenly started feeling different. I
always knew that I was. I never felt I missed out--in fact, it was like, 'Oh,
thank God I'm not that.'" Namely, she means, a regular kid.]
Towards the end of the interview, she's approached by fans with a photo request: ["Excuse me. I'm sorry, I know this is extremely rude,
but we're from the East Coast and you're the first famous person we've met. Is
there any way I would be able to get a picture of you?" "You don't
want to meet famous people." "If it's possible, please," the
guy says. Panettiere puts down her spoon, and as they awkwardly drape their
arms around her, she gives the camera a practiced look. "Thank you so
much. Thank you. I'm sorry," they say as they back out of the restaurant,
already reviewing the images on the camera. "I gave them a
half-smile," she says matter-of-factly. "It's a survival
skill."]
There you go. Hayden believes she's better than you - and that she's got a perfect right to act like a self entitled bitch. Who's going to seeI Love You, Beth Cooper now? Aside from the fact that it would be a total waste of your brain cells, now you know your money is going towards this girl. Vote with your dollar and say "no" to Hayden for movie star.
There was a rumor going 'round that Carmen Electra was expecting her first child with fiance, Korn guitarist Rob Patterson. Speculation increased when Carmen, world-renowned for her bikini body, showed up at her own pool party in Vegas swathed in a muu muu. Well, I guess the world was wrong. She's still not married and there appears to be no baby on the way. Instead she's strutting her stuff, topless, at the MGM Grand's Crazy Horse show. And from the looks of things, there is absolutely no pregnancy to confirm. Carmen's no fool - she knows she's getting up there in years and is hoping for a permanent residency in Vegas. Time will tell if she gets what she wants - but she'd better watch her back. I'm sure Holly Madison was planning on being the only "star" to share her tits with the world. She probably doesn't appreciate the competition! Video is safe for work, by the way.
Unlike Harry Potter star, Rupert Grint, I've remained unaffected by the swine flu epidemic. It's still a mystery to me why old Ginger Balls would release a statement through his press agent regarding having the flu. Do you really want that following you around the rest of your life?However, my super powers are not immune to everything as I totally have a case of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince mania. I can't escape it!
Jane Carrey is the only child of mega-wealthy comedian, Jim Carrey. She is beautiful and she's a mere 21 years old. She is now pregnant and engaged to be wed to this dude. While it's exciting to think of Jim as a grandpa - he'll probably be the most fun ever - I think Jane is selling herself short. I remember seeing her take the stage with Jim after an episode of In Living Color - she was chubby and shy. Now she blossomed into a gorgeous woman of legal age and it seems like the only thing she's doing with it is marrying the first guy to come along. Jane, no! Flaunt those assets! Make a sex tape! Compete with Miley Cyrus and get in a cat fight with Paris Hilton. You've got to give me something - I've waited all these years. I feel robbed. Meanwhile, congrats to Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy - at least that baby will be adept at make some crazy faces. Click here to view her fiance's MySpace page.

Ben Affleck has finally spoken out about his time with Jennifer Lopez. One word: gross. His choice of adjective, not mine - though I'm in total agreement. Here's what he has to say:
["I was no longer in
control of my life. I thought I wanted certain things, but I didn't. I got
lost. I felt suffocated, miserable and gross. I should never have gone down
that route or got sucked in to all the publicity. I was typecast as myself. Too many people weren't
getting past what they read about me. That was damaging. I can tell from
experience it's bad for you, and bad for your career. So I took a break, went
away for a while and let things calm down."]
I never really got what he saw in her - they seemed like an odd couple from the get-go. JLo comes across as nothing more than a self absorbed diva with little on her mind, other than how to get what she wants at all times. A luscious booty can only take you so far. Ben finally got his head on straight and hooked up with Jennifer Garner. Though Jen 2.0 sometimes looks like she's sucking on lemons, she comes across as way more real than Jenny From The Block. Affleck seems to have recovered some of his sanity and self esteem - now if he could only locate his career. It appears to have gone missing...
[Photo Credit: The poor guy deserves a break. He not only endured dating JLo, he was forced to star in a movie with her as well. He also briefly dated Gwyneth Paltrow, back in the day. Isn't all of that punishment enough?]
Kate Moss is likely grateful that she's gotten some distance from hot mess/rocker, Pete Doherty. That's to say in the moments that she's cognizant enough to have feelings, such as regret, which is probably few and far between. Pete, known for being a loose cannon, could allegedly be in a lot of trouble soon. Check out these details, thanks to Agent Bedhead:
[In December 2006, we first covered the so-called "death flat
party," where Mark Blanco died after "falling" from a balcony while partying
with Pete Doherty and pals. Naturally, we found it odd that Doherty would later
return to the scene [a flat owned by Paul Roundhill] and film a tasteless video
for a freshly-penned song called "The Art Of Murder." And what of the
confession from Johnny "Headlock" Jeannevol? Not to mention the CCTV footage of
Doherty running past Blanco's almost lifeless body. This footage proves a
rather suspicious timeline, in which Blanco left the party and returned, only
to fall almost immediately from that 2nd floor balcony. Further, Blanco did not
fall as one would after either accidentally falling or purposely jumping, that
is, with the flailing of limbs. Instead, he fell as one would after being
punched unconscious. Footage shows that Blanco remained on the street for a
full 22 minutes before Doherty and Jeannevol fled the scene to avoid police and
paramedics, who arrived shortly thereafter. Despite all these mysterious circumstances, for over 2 1/2
years, all lingering questions surrounding the death of Blanco have been
readily dismissed by London's Metropolitan Police, who stand by their theory
that Blanco "accidentally killed himself trying to jump onto a lamp-post." In
October 2007, Coroner Dr Andrew Reid labelled this theory as mere "speculation"
and ordered the Met to reopen the investigation, but that has yet to occur, but
It isn't over by a long shot.]
Mark Blanco's mother, Sheila, has remained dedicated to following the details of the case, spending loads of her own money to follow leads. Sheila has recently found a powerful ally - Dame Judi Dench has donated money to Blanco's cause. This, combined with increased publicity, might lead to some very interesting times for Pete in the near future...
Thank god for organic fruit and juicers - otherwise we'd have a disgustingly fat Gwyneth Paltrow on our hands. And who in the hell wants to see that? This week, Paltrow's GOOP newsletter purports that there's nothing more refreshing than going on a 3 week juice fast after living the high life. For real:
[As I write this, I am finishing the amazing three-week-long
"Clean" detox program detailed below. Designed by New York cardiologist and
detoxification specialist Dr. Alejandro Junger, this program allowed me to work
and exercise regularly, something I cannot do if I am on a liquid-only detox. I
followed it to the letter and I can report that it worked wonders. I feel pure
and happy and much lighter (I dropped the extra pounds that I had gained during
a majorly fun and delicious "relax and enjoy life phase" about a month ago). I
also really enjoyed learning about the incredible health benefits of resting
your digestive system, etc. This thing is amazing.]
I'm so glad she finally decided to something about her weight. It was getting really out of control. She must have gone all out during that "relax and enjoy life phase." I have a feeling Gwyn and I would have very different takes on that experience: hers most likely being eating cookie and knocking it back with a glass of vanilla soy milk. Mine being alcohol and cheese - and then there's vacation.
[Photo Credit: She probably gained a few pounds licking the oil off her legs.]
So now it's okay? Mary Louise Parker is posing topless in the August issue of Esquire. That's fine and all - she looks fabulous - but wasn't she up in arms over having to bare her breasts in an episode during season four of Weeds? Yes, she was. Specifically:
["I didn't think I needed to be naked, and I fought with
the director about it, and now I'm bitter. I knew it was going to be on the
Internet: 'Mary-Louise shows off her big nipples.' I wish I hadn't done that. I
was goaded into it.]
Well, either the petite actress got strong-armed again by those big bullies at Esquire or she's made peace with her nipples, because they are on display again. Also, she must be feeling great about her ass crack - her butt also has a "prime" spot in the magazine's layout. Click here for a complete gallery of the hot pictures.
[Photo Credit: Photo link also leads to a video on the Esquire site. Mary Louise Parker reading a bedtime story in her panties!]
Yeah, you'd think it would be obvious but I guess we've got to put it out there: if you have a step-relation, even though you're not related by blood, it's probably best not to have sex with that person. Woody Allen did so with then partner, Mia Farrow's, adopted daughter and it nearly brought down his career. Apparently Shauna Sand, Lorenzo Lamas's fourth ex-wife, slept with her step son. And now there's a rumor that Morgan Freeman might be getting hitched to his step granddaughter! Reports surfaced recently that the actor had been carrying on a years long affair with E'Dena Hines, in addition to being married and having an affair with another woman as well. He's mighty busy for a 72 year old man! Needless to say, these things don't have a history of ending well. Though Allen is still with Soon Yi, his reputation has never recovered. Shauna Sand's affair naturally brought the end of her marriage to Lamas. And now Freeman's once stellar stature within Hollywood will most likely suffer permanently. To sum it up: it's just gross. It's one thing to follow your heart, quite another to follow your private parts to your partner's family. Not a good idea!
[Photo Credit: Shauna gets the picture. Boobs always win. Odd, she looks like a great role model! Sand is a former Playboy Playmate and is only 36 years old. This is one case in which Botox seems to actually be losing the age war!]
Nicole Kidman is going through a Hollywood breakup! Nope, not with hubby Keith Urban - she's withstood the drugs, the rehab stint as well as the cheating rumors. He, in turn, ponied up a baby, so those two are good to go. Rather this split comes as a surprise - Nicole has just dumped her longtime publicist, Catherine Olim. Catherine's been dedicated to Nicole's career for the past fifteen years. No word as to why Kidman decided to part ways with the woman who was said to be "slavishly devoted" to crease-free actress. It is Hollywood, so theories are rampant. The most prevalent is that Nicole hopes to revive her career and, for whatever reason, doesn't feel that Catherine is up to the task. Kidman's screen presence hasn't had much sparkle as of late - some have even called her "box office poison" after costarring in Baz Luhrman's disastrous Australia. Nicole also suffers a complex fate - men don't pine for her and most women don't want to be like her, resulting in an ever decreasing big screen draw. Let's hope this publicist transition goes more smoothly for her than it did for ex-husband, Tom Cruise. The world was allowed to see Tom's crazy after he allowed his sister to briefly take his P.R. helm. Oh, it was fun for us - but it very nearly destroyed Tom's career. Too bad these two are drawn to attention like moths to a flame - it would be really easy to sit home and count the millions in peace!
Happy Birthday, Courtney Love! The hot-mess of a rocker turns 45 today and, rest assured, she's somewhere in this world most likely out of her mind. Stay tuned for the crazy Tweets, some kind of insane blog rant, an alleged drug binge and another subsequent loss of more millions from Kurt's fortune. Also look for Francis Bean to be furiously scribbling in her journal while she's forced to party, since she's her mother's only friend. This is one event I'm happy to not attend!

Lindsay Lohan, where to start... How about this classy move, caught in person by TMZ:
[Lindsay Lohan called a locksmith for help late last night --
and showed her gratitude by stiffing him! Linds and Sam Ronson called USafe Locksmith to Sam's house
when they realized they lost the house keys. As the locksmith did his thing, Lindsay found an open window
and told the locksmith he could stop. The locksmith asked for his $39 fee, but
Lindsay refused, offering $20 instead. The locksmith tells us Sam then told him to move his car
away from the property. He obliged, but when he came back, Lindsay and Sam had
locked themselves in the house and didn't pay him a penny.]
Sounds pretty shitty, right? Well, according to Lindsay's Tweets, she'd like to let us know "there are more important things than an issue with a locksmith." I couldn't resist sending a reply her way to let her know if she had simply paid the man it wouldn't be an issue. I'm waiting for the expletives, or the old "someone hacked my Twitter." Classic. I'll keep you posted!

Oh my god - I totally missed Tom Cruise's birthday! Amidst the hoopla of laying Farrah Fawcett to rest, Michael Jackson's massive memorial, Lindsay's extended career gaffes and Emma Watson's panty flash, Tom Cruise quietly celebrated his 47th birthday! Quiet was an action not associated with the actor until recently. Check out the infamous vintage Oprah clip above - you know, the one where he acts like a complete nut. Tom is currently in Australia with beard wife Katie Holmes and clone daughter Suri. Tom is on daddy duty while Katie attempts to act. Good luck with that - on all fronts. Happy Birthday, Tom - and sorry for the delay!
Sacha Baron Cohen has gone to great lengths to ensure authenticity in all of his characters, from Ali G to Borat - and now Bruno. I thought he'd gone over the top before, but the upcoming Bruno movie seems to be proving me wrong. Watch the clip above to hear a crazy behind the scenes story from the upcoming flick - Sacha's creation heads off to interview a real terrorist. Wild! The production has been rife with controversy, which will most likely ensure a box office success...
Harry Potter star, Emma Watson, is surely a classier version of the ilk we have available in the States - but that doesn't mean she's not above a little panty flash. She's got miles to go to before considered in the league of Paris/Britney/Lindsay, thank god, though she's well on her way to proving to her public that she not a little girl any longer. Seems to be a theme. Emma was caught with the pube-high dress at the recent Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince premiere in London. Now all she needs is a lengthy trip to the bathroom and fling with a high profile star and she'll be well on her way...

Chris Brown has done it again. This guy is the tackiest motherfucker on earth. I wonder if the jury feels like they made a huge mistake by giving him community service instead of jail time. His actions before, during and after this fiasco have been abominable. What's the latest? Well, in addition to attending Diddy's "White Party" days after his court date, Chris decided to hookup with Amber Rose. That's not all - he did so while wearing a $300,000 diamond necklace that spelled "Oops!" Details:
[Chris Brown stunned onlookers with a giant pendant that
spelled out the word "OOPS!" in diamonds after the Sean Combs "Malaria No More"
White Party. We're told by the folks who work with the jeweler's company that
Chris wanted something unapologetically bold. "Chris has been a client of mine for some time now", says
Jason. "It's always a pleasure to work him because it gives me a chance to be
creative. He came to me with a great idea and I am very pleased with the
finished product". A source from Jason of Beverly Hills says that the necklace
was about $300,000 and took 218 hours to complete with a ridiculous amount of
diamonds, sapphires, and other jewels all in it.]
It's so shocking - I don't even know what to say. I just hope there's karma coming for Chris that can somehow make this right. By the way: what in the hell is Diddy doing inviting this guy over? Not that I was ever a big Diddy fan, but I have serious doubts about him now. Click here for a photo of Chris wearing the horrendous chain, with Teyana Taylor (the Rihanna lookalike) at his side.
Isn't this just the summer of fun for California? Hopefully the flood of fan action will help plump the coffers for the state. Sunny Los Angeles recently hosted the memorial service for Michael Jackson, bringing millions of mourners and opportunists to the Staples Center. Next up, it's San Diego's turn - the city will once again take the stage for the upcoming Comic-Con in mid-July. The already popular event has the potential to turn into a complete madhouse - it's rumored that both Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart might show up to support the Twilight franchise. Save up that babysitting cash and starting begging your parents - sounds like this one's a go! The duo haven't been spotted together since the MTV Movie Awards - both have been off filming projects unrelated to their vampiric love story. Must be some hot phone calls going on - gotta fan those flames... We all know they've been gettin' it on - regardless of whether or not Kristen has a boyfriend on the side. This might reunite the clandestine lovers - word has it Robert's been getting frisky on the set with his latest costar, Emilie de Raven - who recently got divorced, by the way. San Diego would give Kristen a chance re-snag her booty call. Nothing says "sexy" like Comic Con!
Ah Lindsay. She just can't catch a break these days. The long lost career, the on again/off again affections of Samantha Ronson, the jewel thief allegations, the spray tan lawsuit - the list could, and does, go on. Adding insult to injury is the recent revelation that Lohan turned down a role in one of the hottest movies of the summer, The Hangover. You think she would have snagged it on principle - lord knows she's had enough experience! Rather she passed, believing the film had no potential. Yeah, she's known for her well-honed eye - everyone remembers what a huge success I Know Who Killed Me was back in the day!
I actually really wanted to like Katherine Heigl at some point. Julia Roberts had lost her sparkle for me a long time ago and there seemed to be a dearth of female leads for romantic comedies. Heigl was set to take the crown and I, for one, was all for it. But she's ruined it. Every time she's in the news, it's for something nasty that she's said or done. How can I lose myself in a movie if I'm thinking what a bitch the person is the entire time I'm at the theater? Apparently Katherine hasn't grasped this; she's even ready to threaten her own husband if he stands in her way! Here's the scoop:
[Katherine Heigl's husband gets jealous when she kisses her
co-stars. The 30-year-old actress has revealed musician Josh Kelley hated
watching her sexy scenes with Gerard Butler in upcoming film The Ugly Truth.
When asked if Josh was comfortable with her getting intimate
with the Scottish actor, Katherine said: "No, not really. It's not his
favourite part of the profession but I told him, 'It's my job, and if I feel
uncomfortable doing my job, and it suffers because of it, I'll kill you."
This is not the first time Katherine and Josh have had
disagreements.
When they first moved in together, the couple argued
constantly.
Katherine explained to Britain's Marie Claire magazine:
"Josh and I didn't live together before we were married because I wanted to
hang on to those last days of my single-girl pad as long as I could.
"I'm not going to lie - it was rough when we finally moved
in together. It's the simple stuff everyone talks about. I like things neat, he
leaves things everywhere."
But no matter how angry Josh gets, Katherine says she is
"not ready" to stop doing romantic comedies.
She explained: "I know I'm catching some crap for only doing
romcoms, but I really like doing them. People keep asking me if I want to do
anything more serious, or Oscar-worthy, and I do, but I'm not quite there yet.]
Got that? Josh better keep it in line or she'll kill him and the only reason she's sticking to rom-coms vs. Oscar-worthy material is because she really prefers the fluff right now. She'll get around to being a contender in her own damn time. Seriously, how can I enjoy Gerard Butler when Katherine the Great is hanging all over him? Bitch better shape up and shut up.
[The couple met when Katherine deigned to star in Josh Kelley's music video. I'm assuming she hadn't heard the song before agreeing to the job - it's terrible.]
I think it's safe to say that 2009 won't go down as Bret Michaels favorite year - though, if Rock of Love Bus is any indication, that will be about the only thing that hasn't gone down on him. We all know about his injury and subsequent humiliation at the Tony Awards - combined with the indignity that no one ever apologized for the incident. Now comes the bus crash on the 4th of July. That's right - Bret Michaels tour bus was involved in five-car pile up in Toronto. He and his "solo" band were on their way to a gig in St. Paul, Minnesota. Funny - I always thought "solo" meant a performance by one person, but it's Bret we're talking about so I guess there's some leeway. Luckily no one was seriously injured in the accident. I believe the presence of silicone boobs helped the musicians "brace for impact."
[Photo Credit: You know he's so proud of this picture. To clarify: I'm not saying that Rock of Love Bus crashed, rather I'm assuming that Bret and his "solo" bandmates surely had some booty on board, cuz that's how he rolls. I'm seeing Poison, along with Def Leppard and Cheap Trick in September - I plan to report back on this issue.]
I can't quite figure it out... I feel like I'm missing something. July 7th... Oh! It's my sister in law's anniversary. That's it. Whew. Two years ago, on 7-7-07, the family headed to Las Vegas for a very special wedding. Sin City was flooded with brides and it was awesome. We had an amazing time, celebrating two really incredible people. Turns out it was a lucky day - Penny and Johnny are still very happy. Oh, shit! There was also a memorial for Michael Jackson today. I knew there was something else. The broke-ass state of California hosted the service. You can click pretty much anywhere else on the web for details. I would recommend TMZ for up to the minute info and What Would Tyler Durden Do for fun.
Michael Bay did something to Megan Fox that a lot of guys (and gals) have dreamed of doing - he filmed her washing his car. The difference is that Michael is probably about 30 years older than Megan and the context was supposed to be professional, so it makes it creepy instead of sexy. Regardless, that is how Megan won the role of Mikaela for the Transformers franchise. Here are the details:
[When the sizzling star of "Transformers: Revenge of the
Fallen" went to director Michael Bay's house to audition for the part, "He made
her wash his Ferrari while he filmed her," reports Jason Solomons in Britain's
Guardian."She said she didn't know what had happened to that footage.
When I put it to Bay himself, he looked suitably abashed -- 'Er, I don't know
where it is either.' " Come on. Cough it up!]
I'm conflicted: on one hand, he needed to see how she would look soaking wet during an action scene. What better way to find that out than to host a bikini car wash of one? She was basically hired to be the man candy (I meant to type "eye candy", but "man candy" works equally well). Oh, I'm kidding. I'm not conflicted at all. Despite my personal opinion on Megan Fox (I think she's annoying), no one deserves to be treated like a piece of meat. It's Hollywood and that's reality - but OMG, that sure makes Michael Bay sound like a total dog. As Webster's Is My Bitch pointed out - was Shia LaBeouf forced to do something equally humiliating to earn his role? Perhaps mow Bay's lawn in his underwear?
When it comes to flying, things are getting pretty bad. RyanAir, the overseas version of a bus in the sky, is known for it's short, inexpensive jaunts around Europe. Well, needless to say, the economy is effecting everyone and, like any other business, RyanAir is looking to make some cuts in order to continue operating at a profit. One of their ideas has included making the toilets on their airlines a pay-per-use situation. Yep, if you're thousands of feet up in the air and you need to pee you'd better be ready to pay for it! I thought that was over the top, but today the news got even more outrageous. The airline is now considering removing seats and having people stand in order to pack in more customers! I assume there will be a few seats remaining on the plane and those who would like to pay more will be allowed to fully sit. This is crazy. And true. Check it out:
[The low-cost carrier said it wants to get more people onto
its aircraft by replacing traditional seating. RyanAir spokesman Stephen McNamara said it was in
discussions with Boeing 'in relation to adapt the aircraft to allow people to
travel in vertical seating'. 'Passengers would not be fully standing, they would have
something like a stool to lean on or to sit on,' he added. Mr McNamara said RyanAir was looking into removing four
rows, or 12 seats, of traditional seating on its planes to accommodate the
standing room.]
God forbid if this becomes the norm... Meanwhile, in other airport related news, a bride was left in the bathroom on her way home from her honeymoon. The newlywed raced to the facilities before catching a connecting flight - during that time, her new husband got bored of waiting for her and got on the plane. Wait - there's more. The plane departed without her and apparently the husband didn't say a word! The bride looked all over the airport for her hubby, before learning that he had left. Who says chivalry is dead? The bride has decided to get a divorce. I think that sounds like a good move! No word on if she had to stand when she finally flew home alone.
[Photo Credit: Hey, at least they're trying to keep it sexy! That's very important. And while we're at it, how about a big "Fuck you" to the marketing genius who coined the phrase "vertical seating." What an asshole.]
Have I mentioned how much I love Crazy Days & Nights? So much good stuff - and the founder of the site is a really nice guy too. He does loads of blind items - really juicy information, and the real deal to boot. He reveals answers to some of the riddles every six months - 4th of July and New Year's Day. You should click here and read the "reveals" in their entirety - definitely worth the time. I'm reprinting my favorite one now. I couldn't resist - it's both hilarious and appalling, my favorite combination.
[This Academy Award winner/nominee A list movie actor is also
a big music fan. Not so much of other music, but primarily of his own. He also
has a huge ego. On a recent movie he was shooting he had it written into his
contract that once a week a certain number of crew members had to show up in
his hotel suite and listen to our actor play his guitar and the songs he was
writing. Most of the songs were about himself and things he had accomplished in
his life. Needless to say the crew hated him with a passion. Instead of going
home to their families, once a week they had to go to a hotel suite for a few
hours and listen to the bag of wind go on and on about great he was. In
song. Who is it? Russell Crowe.]
It doesn't make me want to shop for shoes, but I do now have a strange craving for a "My Little Pony" and some cotton candy. Britney Spears. Fall ad for Candies Shoes. Airbrushed to the point that it should almost be illegal. What more can I say?
I wonder what "strict Christian mother" will mean to Kendra Wilkinson? The thought completely delights me. My guess is that her version of Christianity varies wildly from the traditional, thusly forging a new version of the stalwart religion. Here are some quotes:
[Baskett was helping her find God for the first time, she is
determined to be a strict religious mama. "Our child will definitely be Christian," Wilkinson told
Tarts last week, with Basket adding that they are going to be "very strict" yet
still "spoil" their young ones at appropriate times. "Hank makes her pray before meals now. His family is so
religious and he really calmed her down a lot, he's good for her," Kendra's
bridesmaid and playmate Brittany Ginger told Tarts, with Kendra adding that
praying is a new experience that has helped her change "for the better".]
How awesome is it that Kendra had a bridesmaid named "Brittany Ginger"? I can see that girl's tramp stamp from here. Anyways, is Wilkinson now going to church or taking some kind of "Make Me A Christian!" class? Or is she learning all she needs to know from Hank - which apparently includes the dogma "It's okay to marry a stripper, as long as you make her pray." I'm really curious to watch all of this unfold...
The newly tough Cameron Diaz graces the cover of V Magazine looking like a Madonna castoff - and, as you know around here, that is not a compliment. The ode was intentional, though dare I say, not very successful. The cone bra, as it's been pointed out (so to speak), was made from gaffer tape - presumably handcrafted separately and not taped directly to her breasts. Though that's what should have happened, if she's now really as tough as they say. Nice fake tattoo, by the way - case in point.
I'm not sure what world the editor of Elle is living in, but last I checked a sixteen year old girl is still basically a child. Putting a minor in a pushup bra on the cover of a magazine is questionable, at best. Hey, I've got a great idea - since she's allegedly not a kid, let's sexualize her even more! Oh wait, they've already got that covered.
Rumors of a rift within your relationship? No problem! Just be sure to force accompany your sweetie out in public for numerous dates. Try to do this at least two days in a row, to ensure authenticity. That seems to be Justin Timberlake's current plan with longtime girlfriend, Jessica Beil. Once it was pointed out in the press that the couple hadn't made an appearance together since May, the duo was immediately spotted having a romantic dinner one night and grocery shopping the next day. Ah, domestic bliss! Oh, wait - hot romance! This comes on the heels of allegations, made by Lindsay Lohan no less, that Justin had cheated on Jessica while at a club early this month. It's said that things "haven't been well" between the two. Ya think?
Someone please explain to me again why Chris Brown isn't in jail? I really can't fathom why this piece of shit is allowed to roam free. At least he would have had time to contemplate what he's done - instead he's off making out with Kanye West's on-again/off-again girlfriend, Amber Rose. Because the guy is all class, he actually kicked off the evening hanging out with another woman - Rihanna lookalike, Teyana Taylor. The two showed up at Diddy's annual "White Party" to celebrate - and of course donate to charity. Ha. Though Teyana arrived on Brown's arm, he was quick to ditch her for Amber. After a little dirty dancing, Amber and Chris found a little privacy for their suck-face session. I can't believe the nerve of this guy. Showing up with the Rihanna doppleganger, again, is the lowest of the low. He's blatantly mocking her and the situation. Of course, it doesn't speak highly of either woman that they'd be willing to hang out with an alleged abuser. Some think Brown's disrespectful move is a direct swipe at Kanye - West was one of the few celebrities to speak out on the Rihanna incident, saying he was "devastated." Knowing Chris and how completely immature he is, I absolutely wouldn't put it past him. Maybe it's time for Kanye to indulge in a little vigilante justice - I think Jay-Z would probably have his back on that one.
[Photo Credit: Oh look, it's Madonna being trendy again!]
I guess you can gauge how deeply your death affected people by the availability of impersonators on a short notice. Madonna "pays tribute" to Michael Jackson with a lookalike at a recent concert. Next time you hop on a train, look around - Madonna just might be there. Bitch can still do no right in my book after refusing to pick up the daughter she purchased adopted. Oh, I can hold a grudge!
Rupert Grint, who portrays Ron Weasley in the film versions of the Harry Potter franchise, has released a statement through his publicist that he's recently had a bout of the dreaded swine flu. Umm, okay.
a.) How do you get a "mild case" of swine flu? From what I've heard, it's all or nothing. You've got it or you don't.
b.) Why would you want that publicized? We all could have easily lived without that information. That's like someone saying, "Hey, I just had diarrhea but I'm okay now!"
c.) Your cast and crew members must be loving you. Don't be offended if you don't give receive a lot of hugs when you get back to work!
Joyce DeWitt, of Three's Company fame, was arrested for a DUI on July 4th. For those of you that don't know, the 4th is one of the top holidays for drunk driving, along with the other obvious dates: New Year's Eve and Superbowl Sunday. It would seem like common sense then that you wouldn't drive past a checkpoint while drunk - but that's allegedly what Joyce is said to have done. This always pisses me off. Don't drink and drive. It's simple to get a cab and not so simple to get out of jail. Joyce is 60 years old, by the way!
The allure of stupidity never gets old! I think I'll need a combination of flask and designated driver to see this flick. The drinking games will be necessary. Sorority Row features both Audrina Patridge and Rumer Willis - I think the screen might explode from this unholy pairing. Good thing the folks who run the Oscars have expanded the "Best Picture" field from five to ten - they're clearly going to need it this year!
Page Six recently reported that Courtney Love trashed a swanky hotel room in NYC in a matter of hours - with her daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, in tow. Love, apparently operating under the illusion that she's still a rock star, caused over $5,000 worth of damage to the room. Lucky hotel employees found flooding, syringes and feminine products - amongst other debris - strewn about the suite. Sounds like a party to me! So, it would seem that Courtney is allegedly back to using her drug of choice... again. Talk about stating the obvious. It's hard to muster up much feeling for Love (oh, the irony) - but I feel really bad for Frances. Courtney claimed she was acting out from the stress of losing $750 million of Kurt's fortune. I would say she has no one to blame but herself!
Rumer Willis is set to make a guest appearance on the revamped version of Beverly Hills 90210 as Gia, a "punky cute lesbian who isn't afraid to speak her mind." Ah, seriously - why is this news? Click here for a great summary by my pal over at Crazy Days & Nights as to exactly why this shouldn't be a big deal. Meanwhile, you may or may not recall that none other than Angelina Jolie played the original Gia, as one of her first big breakout roles - a true story of a bisexual supermodel hellbent on destruction. The tagline of this biopic was "Too beautiful to die - to wild to live." Seriously. Take a look at the clip above and know that Rumer will never reach such great heights. Warning: the clip is mainly safe for work, but you probably wouldn't want your boss to catch you watching it. It's a montage set to a painfully bad song - I recommend listening to it on mute. Oh, this wraps around to Rumer again, as I'd like to put her (and her entire family) on mute as well!

steamy fan fic! The guy is online all the time, reading what you write, reading

I have a solid guess who I think this is and I'd like to share one of my most favorite little snippets I've written about him, in hopes that he'll stop by my site. Hell, I've got my mind set on an interview with Criss Angel. Why not throw Mayer in the mix? Live the dream! Here it goes... John Mayer, this one's for you: "When the pussy was new and the Tweets were few." I might be biased, but I think it's pretty brilliant. I'm thinking of pulling an Amy Winehouse and getting my own line of greeting cards and wrapping paper.

Damn, this dude is not messing around - literally. Kevin Jonas, the eldest JoBro who recently got engaged, apparently wants to make sure that his wedding goes off without a hitch - and that it happens as quickly as possible. Danielle, the newest member of the Jonas family (blech), has received a three carat diamond, set in double platinum, surrounded by 210 pave diamonds. If that doesn't say "I want your sex," I don't know what does. Oh, and he also designed the one of a kind ring himself to add to the panty moistening. Yeah, I did just type those words...
Happy Fourth of July, dear readers! You all are the best - I truly appreciate each and every one of you who take the time to read Panty Line Press. It means the world to me! However you choose to celebrate, please have a blast and do so safely. I want you all back with me tomorrow. :) Meanwhile, enjoy a little snippet from The Colbert Report - it put a smile on my face and I hope it does the same for you. xo
Yawn. I feel as bored as they look. Haven't we already seen this? Granted, there's nothing wrong with an eyeful of David Beckham in his underwear - but the couple's tireless Armani campaigns are getting a little old.
Despite having a mere 18 months left to fulfill in her term as Alaska's Governor, Sarah Palin has announced that she will resign the post - allegedly to "spend more time with her family." Obviously political pundits are assuming she's clearing the path for a presidential bid in 2012. Hey, that's one way to celebrate the Fourth of July - by abdicating your political duties, as well as your commitment to your state! Rock on, Sarah.

If you pick up any tabloid, you'll usually find a story about how Jen can't over Brad, how she's regularly paired with costars, how desperate she seems and how she can't hold on to anyone - depending upon the week. What's a girl to do? Find a way to bring the dates to her doorstep! That's right - Jennifer is rumored to be considering a classic celebrity move. Not releasing a perfume or a sex tape - rather she's allegedly planning on opening a restaurant. That way if she acts clingy and scares off another guy, she'll immediately have a roomful of options. Clever! Oh, and despite being a dedicated Zone girl, she's naturally a great cook. Ummm, sure. Here are the details:
[Jennifer Aniston eyeing an unexpected new role - the actress is reportedly
developing plans for her own restaurant. The actress has reportedly been testing out her culinary
skills on pals before she commits to following in the footsteps of famous
restaurateurs including Eva Longoria-Parker, Ashton Kutcher and Robert De Niro. A source tells Limelife.com, "Jennifer is really
passionate about cooking. She recently had a new kitchen fitted and she loves
it. She can cook anything from Mexican meals to Italian food to cakes. She does
use cookbooks but mainly they are her own recipes. Everyone says she should
open her own restaurant and she said she would love to."]
That sounds like bullshit. Do you really buy Jen sitting around cooking everything from Mexican food to cakes? She has her Zone meals delivered, she hasn't touched a saturated fat in twenty years and she can't cook. I believe she's opening a restaurant based on "her own recipes" about as much as I believe she's secretly reunited with Brad.
[Photo Credit: Hello, food! I've been waiting for you.]
Pressing matters around here today! The massive Twilight franchise is rolling on - plans to film the fourth (and supposedly final) installment have just been announced. There won't be any downtime either - work on Breaking Dawn will begin immediately after Eclipse. The push is twofold - partially to cash in on the hot trend (not that fans are likely to lose interest) and also to ensure the actors look as close to their "ageless" vampire characters as possible. One kink in the plan? Kristen Stewart. No, she's not holding out - not even from Robert Pattinson, if all the rumors are true. However, she did get her hair cut and dyed for her current role, portraying Joan Jett in the biopic, The Runaways (the same name as Jett's iconic all-girl band from the Seventies.) which doesn't exactly jive with her Bella Swan look. What, oh what, will they do? I'm on the edge of my seat. Click here for photos of Kristen as Joan, in case you haven't seen them already.
Ah, this is too good. This girl may want fame even more than Paris Hilton - and that's saying a lot! Scheana Marie - the young woman who had a brief fling with John Mayer (read: rebound sex) - is baaack! Way to go Scheana. She hasn't stopped at Mayer, she's also had a years long affair with Eddie Cibrian, naturally. Here are the details, conveniently revealed to In Touch by a "close friend" of Scheana's:
[LeAnn Rimes recently told Dean Sheremet, her husband of
seven years, that she wanted to leave him in the hope of being with her married
Northern Lights costar Eddie Cibiran. But LeAnn will be surprised when she
learns that Eddie was not only cheating on his wife - he was also cheating on
both of them with 24-year-old model Scheana Marie Jancon up through February.
A month later, the two were supposed to meet up for St.
Patrick's Day, but on March 7, Eddie was captured on a security camera making
out with LeAnn in Laguna Beach. He changed his phone humber and coldheartedly
hasn't contacted Scheana since.
"Scheana feels betrayed," Sandra reveals. "She feels like
Eddie cheated on her, as well as his wife. She was in shock."
Scheana - who has also hooked up with John Mayer - had no
idea that Eddie had been hooking up with LeAnn since they met on set last year.
LeAnn, who, In Touch recently reported, separated from Dean
in the hope of being with Eddie, will likely not be amused when she finds out
about his steamy affair with Scheana.
"If you're going to have a mistress," Sandra insists, "only
have one! Maybe he just didn't think it would ever come back to him. Or maybe
he really didn't care if it did."]
Golly gee, let's hop up on our high horses. If a husband is going to cheat, he really should limit it to one other woman. That's clearly the issue here! I'm including the video from her infamous interview about her "relationship" with John Mayer for old time's sake. She sounds real smart!
I guess I missed out big when I forewent watching Paris Hilton's turn on Kathy Griffin's "MyLife On The D-List" - apparently she busted out with some sage advice. Here are the details, via Evil Beet:

like that.'"]
Needless to say, Paris is a hypocrite, as well as a fucking liar. Click here for proof, as if you need it, and please note the link is NSFW. Evil Beet makes some great points on the issue both here and here. I love it that Paris thinks she can erase history! Clearly there was some dick sucking going on in her infamous sex tape, so by her logic that makes her ugly? I think we have the answer to that question! It seems Kathy Hilton also taught her daughters to be nasty bitches. What a lovely family. My mom taught me to always wear sunscreen and to not pick up the habit of smoking cigarettes and I've adhered to that, so to each her own. Rock on, Paris! Perhaps she and Megan Fox can get together and talk about their bullshit conflicting quotes. It would be a blast to read the fallout of that meeting.
Despite the lack of ALL CAPS BLOGGING doesn't mean Kanye West isn't busy. Subsequently, just because Kanye hasn't been bragging about his goings-on doesn't mean a "source" can't leak it. On the contrary! Though he's been "trying to keep it underwraps," it's somehow come out in the press that he's landed an unpaid internship at The Gap, purportedly to learn about the fashion industry.
[A source tells Us Weekly: "He works all the time, and one
Friday night recently he stayed until midnight. He is learning the fashion
business from the inside and trying to do it quietly."]
Ah, quietly toiling away until midnight on a Friday. How noble! Isn't midnight in NYC on a Friday night like noontime to most people? Anyways, it's great that West is trying to learn about the industry from the inside (he's already developed shoes for Louis Vuitton and Nike). But somewhere a penniless twenty-something with big fashion dreams is crying, knowing that a rich dude has his/her internship.

[Interestingly, Kanye has a link called "Early Megan Fox" on his blog. I didn't know he was a fan! Click here to see the photos he's hosting. Really beautiful pictures...]
This is the godawful trailer for Vanessa Hudgens' upcoming summer flick, Bandslam. If you want a good laugh - and I personally really need one today - watch this. I've said it before and I'll say it again - at some point Zac Efron is going to have to dump her if he wants to maintain that "Tom Cruise" style credibility. Not that Zac is any more talented, but he must have a good P.R. team behind him. If it took this little talent to land a movie, I would have tried that route a longtime ago. I feel ripped off!
With Fourth of July just around the corner, what better way to celebrate than hearing Jessica Simpson belt out "The Star Spangled Banner"? That really puts me in the mood. Oh wait, I just took out my earplugs. Turns out it's terrible! Read the details behind the event here. If you think that's offensive - well, there's more. If you're a prude - which is one of the proponents our great nation is founded upon - get ready to get riled: a fireworks stand in Washington State is enduring scrutiny because their female employees are wearing bikinis! Oh, the humanity. The main complaint is coming from parents who are concerned the bikinis, the business name (Nearly Naked Fireworks) and the proximity to the park might cause a problem for their delicate little children. Adding to the irony, today is Lindsay Lohan's actual birthday. The unholy trifecta is complete.
I can't wait until Hayden becomes more famous - I'm tired of typing "Heroes" combined with her cumbersome last name. If things continue on course, I think we'll hit that point in a few years or less - though it might not be for her acting. The 19 year old, who loves sex and older men, recently broke it off with a London playboy thirteen years her senior. Err... broke it off, as in ended their relationship, not the other kind. Hayden was seen all over Cannes with British T.V. personality, Steve Jones. Apparently that was a convenient fling - she's already dumped him. In the meantime, she was happy to doff her clothes - all of them - for a recent film role in the upcoming "I Love You, Beth Cooper." She says:
[If I can't flaunt it at 20, come on! I mean I might as well
show it now," she said while promoting the flick. The actress also wants us all to know that she was, in fact,
totally nekkid while shooting. "I was really naked. I had these little sticky
petals on my boobs, but that was about it," she boasted. "My dad calls me such
an exhibitionist. He always says, 'God, even when you were little, you were
such an exhibitionist'."]
Now all we need is the release of a well-timed sex tape and we're well on our way to endless Hayden. I'm a bit conflicted - I think she'll make for good gossip fodder, but she also has an annoying Gwyneth Paltrow edge to her, making her rise a possibly grating venture. Actually skip that - I just watched the trailer and I am irritated. This does not bode well.
[Photo Credit]: Why do I hear Hall & Oates "Man Eater" in my head when looking at this picture? Actually, why am I hearing Hall & Oates at all?]
I, for some reason, erroneously assumed that Nicky Hilton must be the "nice one" given that we hear so much less about her than her whorish sibling, Paris. I hope you're sitting down - it turns out I was wrong! Here's how Nicky chose to spend her time, while recently attending a party:
[Page Six reports: Nicky Hilton continues to prove money can't buy class. The
hotel heiress and boyfriend David Katzenberg were spotted sitting outside East
Hampton club Lily Pond Saturday night, "watching people try to get inside
and laughing at them when they were rejected," said our spy. Instead of
having a good time inside during the Absolut Vodka party, Hilton "stayed
outside, hysterically laughing every time someone wasn't let in. She was loving
it." Finally, the tipster told us, Katzenberg "dragged Nicky
inside" where she partied until 1 a.m.]
Turns out being a total piece of shit runs in the family. Who knew that was possible?
[Photo Credit: Nothing says "class" like dead eyes, a wrist tattoo and hot pink nails. Here's Nicky Hilton, mocking a Q-Tip. Really Q-Tip, do you think you're good enough to get inside a Hilton?]
Megan Fox continues with her relentless silliness - and some big names are starting to take notice. Fox recently slammed Transformers director, Michael Bay, for focusing more on special effects than acting. Frankly she should be thanking her lucky stars on that front - no one is operating under the illusion that she's an Oscar contender! Megan says:
[I mean, I can't shit on this movie because it did give
me a career and open all these doors for me. But I don't want to blow smoke up
people's ass. People are well aware that this is not a movie about acting.]
They also remain firmly aware that it's all about how she gets on and off a motorcycle - that requires some skill! Meanwhile, the comments haven't gone unnoticed by Bay. He has a few retorts for Megan:
["Well, that's Megan Fox for you. She says some very
ridiculous things because she's 23 years old and she still has a lot of growing
to do. You roll your eyes when you see statements like that and think, 'Okay
Megan, you can do whatever you want. I got it.' Nick Cage wasn't a big actor when I cast him, nor was
Ben Affleck, before I put him in Armageddon. Shia LaBeouf wasn't a big movie
star before he did Transformers -- and then he exploded. Not to mention Will
Smith and Martin Lawrence, from Bad Boys." Bay thinks Fox could be a little more grateful, though. "Nobody in the world knew about Megan Fox until I found
her and put her in Transformers," he says. "I like to think that I've
had some luck in building actors' careers with my films.]
Sounds like someone better shut the fuck up - or she might find herself on the wrong end of a rewrite. I know Megan's a little young to be thinking about history, but I will mention one name: Katherine Heigl. It's gone really well for Heigl, ever since she acted ungrateful and slammed everyone in her path - not.
[Better shape up Megan. I doubt you want to go back to Hope & Faith. That's right - Fox used to "act" alongside Kelly Ripa! You can see the proof in the clip above.]
Ashton Kutcher stars in the provocatively named Spread - sadly, the title seems to be the raciest and most original thing about the flick. The inexplicable presence of Anne Heche further muddies the waters - I thought she was only good for acting crazy and stealing men. Or is that Angelina Jolie? Now I'm confused. Anyways - the film follows the typical rom-com formula, with a supposedly "indie" edge. The plot is such: guy is a total womanizer, meets the one feisty girl he can't have, falls for said girl. Not exactly groundbreaking. The most interesting thing about the movie is the fact that Demi Moore allowed Ashton the freedom of so many sex scenes. Is that in their pre-nup? The trailer annoyed me - Ashton sounds like he's trying to imitate the lazy drawl of Courtney Taylor - the once sexy leader of the Dandy Warhols. Talk about irritating and dirty - those two probably have a lot in common! The one thing I dread more than the release of the film? Ashton's incessant Tweets. That's going to be painful. Read more details about Spreadhere.
Kevin Jonas, the eldest of the purity ring wearin' Jo Bros, has become engaged! I guess he's opted for a smooth transition, from one ring to another. Kevin, 21, proposed to his girlfriend, Danielle Delesasa, 22, the other day by showing up on her doorstep and asking for her hand in marriage. No word on if he has to wait until they actually walk down the aisle to ask her to take off her underpants.
[Photo Credit: I thought this was a photo of Kevin with Haylie Duff - but then I remembered she got that nose job. And she's probably had sex before, so she's out of the running.]
Meanwhile, brothers Nick and Joe deal with their sexual frustrations by practicing flips together and breaking some floorboards. Oh, sexy! I feel bad for kids that are growing up on this music. Where are the real rock stars?
Here's footage of the infamous interview between Alicia Jacobs and Holly Madison, the one that started it all. I, for the record, think Alicia is wearing a beautiful dress and that my intrepid reporter looks gorgeous. You can see for yourself how awkward things got - and you can read Alicia's account below. This is the one we've all been waiting for - read on for the juicy details! Thanks again to Alicia for taking the time and being such a wonderful subject. I can't say enough great things about this woman; she's a really special lady. You can follow Alicia on her blog here and on Twitter here. If you're just tuning in, you can click here for an introduction to Alicia and KVBC in Las Vegas here.
Jenna Zine: Do you mind talking about Holly Madison?
Alicia Jacobs: No, not at all! I'm actually doing a story on her
tomorrow. [Regarding Peepshow, which is discussed in a separate post.]
JZ: To me, and again it's just my assumption, but I did
watch The Girls Next Door. I always
thought she had mean eyes and the not-genuine laugh. She's very good at what
she does, but I always thought it was calculated. I always felt a little bad
for Hef. He seems like such a sweet guy.
AJ: He's a nice man! The first day I met him was that day at
the pool party. He's very charming.
JZ: He's an icon and he seems like a sweetheart.
AJ: Yeah!
JZ: He lives life the way he wants it and, if anything, he's
inspiring for that reason. He has a vision. He's taken chances in his life and
lives in a way most people never dream. He's really made a whole lifestyle for
himself.
AJ: His new girlfriends are great. They're very pretty.
JZ: Are they? [I've heard they're not great, but I haven't
met them in person and Alicia has!]
AJ: Yes. They're very pretty. They're quiet, but they're
very nice. Hef told me he's happier in these relationships than he's ever been
in his life.
JZ: Really? That's nice to hear.
AJ: It was nice to hear. I hope that's the case; he deserves
that.
JZ: I hope so. I know Holly, for some reason, was one of the
loves of his life. The whole time I was watching the show I felt like she
wasn't fully there. She seemed manipulative.
AJ: Let me put it this way, I think he's much happier
person. He seems much happier now and that's what he told me so I have to go
with what he told me personally. That's big, for someone to say they're happier
than they've ever been. I think he said a lot when he said that. Holly was
maybe ten feet away from him when he said that, so...
AJ: I know! I guess not so much. That's okay; I get it. I
understand; we all have a job to do. It was the weirdest thing - it started out
as no big deal. I got offered to go do the story at the Palms [a Maloof
Brothers Casino] on a Saturday. I don't usually work Saturdays, but I thought,
"You know what? Hugh Hefner is one of the few celebrities I've never
interviewed. Sure, I think I'll go." There was definitely some curiosity there,
so I thought I'd go in on a Saturday. What the heck? I had my little Star with
me, a Cavalier King Charles puppy. My friend, Robert Aganza, also came along because
he wanted to hang out. We had dinner plans later that night, so I came dressed
for dinner. It was a very chilly, windy day and it was out by the pool. I was
wearing a very nice, printed Cavalli dress - not that I'm throwing names
around, but it was a very nice dress. We go to start the interview and get
introduced and Holly looks at me and says, "Oh, nice dress. Interesting choice
for a pool party." It took me by surprise and it gave me a pause. I thought,
"She didn't just insult me, did she? Because that would be really weird. I'm
about to do an interview and I'm going to have a camera in her face."
[laughter] I thought, "Why would somebody do that?"I thought it might have something to do with the issue with
Criss [Angel], but I thought I really couldn't matter to her. That's ancient
history for me and not a big deal. I thought nothing of it. Then I started the
interview and I don't know if this has every happened for you but have you ever
started an interview and felt like you're pulling teeth to get the answers? I
was getting one to three word answers. Wow! So, I cut the interview short. I
thought, "Okay. That's fine. I'll go talk to Kendra, Bridget and Hef." I'll
have more than enough to package this and it will be fine. Well, next day I get
a call from our local columnist, Norm Clarke from the R.J. [Las Vegas Review Journal] He said, "Hey, I've gotten some calls from people
that said Holly made some disparaging remarks about your dress at the pool.
What do you think about that?" I said, "Really? What did they say?" And he
repeated it as it was said. I concurred that she did say that and agreed that
it was not so nice. But, what was I going to say? He said, "Well, she's
speaking about it and she's made a few comments. Do you want to say anything?"
I said, "Well, what did she say?" He revealed she said, "Well, I'm really going
to hold my tongue. I didn't mean that I didn't think the dress wasn't nice. I
don't know why she took it as an insult." It was an insult. You don't say that
to someone - 'interesting choice of dress' - if you mean it otherwise.
JZ: No. You know when something is an insult!
AJ: If you like something you say, "Pretty dress!" or "Hey,
I like your dress."
JZ: No, she knew what she was doing!
AJ: I'm not an idiot, Holly. Then she went on to say, "Well,
I'm really going to hold my tongue; but I really wouldn't have thought she was
Criss's type. Okay." And I thought, "Wow. What is that supposed to mean?"Oh, I had also Twittered after the
event. I wrote that I'd interviewed Holly Madison and that she was difficult to
interview and that she wasn't very nice to me. I also wrote that she had these
odd pink hair extensions. I did say that her body looked better, or good -
something like that. Well, apparently Holly didn't like that. So I my answer to
the columnist was, "I wish Holly luck in her future and I wish her well with
her new T.V. show." She told me at the time [of the interview at the pool
party] that she was trying for a new T.V. show, but she wouldn't tell me the
name of it and wouldn't tell me any details. All I know was that it was about
her and a stuffed pug. The pug was called "Party Pug."
JZ: No! [laughter]
AJ: That's all she would say. If you go online, you can see
the interview. It's like crickets chirping in the background. Then she went on
her website and wrote a scathing blog about me, which was really unfair. She
claimed that I was trying to get publicity off her fame. She called me every
name in the book and called me desperate. Then she sent it all off to Perez Hilton!
The next day I realized I had to stand up for myself, so I wrote a response on
my blog. I wrote back. Then, thank you to Perez, he posted about my blog as
well so it kind of evened things out. Cut to two weeks later and I'm helping
judge the Miss USA Pageant, which I had been booked for a month and a half in
advance. A judge, who knew someone in the pageant, had to step out the day
before in the interest of being fair. I guess Holly had been trying to get the
gig for months. They kept telling her no. She doesn't exactly fit the mold of a
judge. They were eleven hours before going on air and they needed someone so
they finally said okay [to Holly]. So the president of the pageant, Paula
Shugart, was very kind. She let me know what was going on and put us at
opposite ends of the table. She said, "I've let her know that she's on your
turf now. She needs to behave and there can be no issues. You're family and
you're one of us. You're from the pageant system. I've been assured that she
doesn't want any problems. She wants to bury the hatchet." I said it was okay.
Of course, we get on the red carpet - well, it was the green carpet that night
because it was eco-friendly - and she came up to me, on camera of course, and
said, "Oh, I want you to know I didn't mean anything about your dress." I
turned to her and asked, "Well, what do you think about what I'm wearing
tonight?" I had on a beautiful evening gown. "Are you okay with this? Are you
sure you approve? Because I would die if you didn't like what I was wearing
tonight!" [laughter] She said, "I think it's beautiful." Of course, Perez was
there egging me on. So, that's the whole story.
JZ: Wow! Oh my god. She's awful.
AJ: She's different. It will be very interesting to see what happens with Peepshow.
JZ: Especially without Mel B...
AJ: There's a story there, and I'm sure I'll have all those
details by tomorrow.
JZ: Let me know! [laughter]
AJ: Totally! I'm very surprised about Mel B. You know, Holly follows me on Twitter.
JZ: Wow! She wants to keep an eye on you...
AJ: She wants to know what I have to say.
JZ: You know, it's so interesting. I really would have
thought she'd be nicer to you. She's so interested in publicity. I can't
believe she didn't try to form an alliance with you.
AJ: I don't know why. I don't understand that. I was there
to promote her and her former boyfriend. It's very strange.
JZ: You'd think that would be right up her alley. I don't
know what happened. I have my conspiracy theories! [laughter]
It's true that Alicia Jacobs had a relationship with Las Vegas-based Mindfreak, Criss Angel. The details? Well, she's a lady and she kept those to herself. However, a couple of interesting things to note: though they've both moved on, they are still in contact and remain good friends. Fascinating then that Holly finally admits, on her own volition, that it was Criss that did "the dumping" when it came to ending their dalliance. Also, Holly claims that she and Criss have no contact now saying, "When he's done with someone, he's done with them." How do you explain then that he still speaks to Alicia? Though this is my own assumption, it would seem that Criss must speak highly of Alicia - enough to make a certain Bunny permanently jealous...
Regarding Criss Angel's show at the Luxor:
Jenna Zine: Speaking of shows that aren't doing well: Criss Angel. [laughter] Umm, I hear it's
not going well over there.
Alicia Jacobs: Well, they've certainly had their problems. Like I just
said, I don't envy anybody opening a new show right now in Vegas. Donny and
Marie are an exception, to their credit. But this is a tough time. People are
not willing to spend the money they were willing to spend a year ago and
there's a lot of competition. There are great shows in this city and we get
jaded. Criss is a very talented and charming guy. His TV show has done amazing
things. I think a lot of people expected that it would be the TV show, but
brought to the stage.Then you
throw Cirque de Soleil into it and that's a whole different genre. Difficult to
combine those things, I think. But virtually every show has kinks in the
beginning. You have to work the nuts and bolts, along with a period of trial
and error. I think that's what's going on right now. He's got great people
there. Cirque de Soleil doesn't fail. Criss is one of the hardest working
people I know. If there's a way to turn that show around, I believe he will do
it.
JZ: What's not resonating with people? Why is it not getting
the reviews? He's well known, he's certainly got the persona, and Cirque de
Soleil is beautiful...
AJ: Of all the Cirque shows, I think it's the best - barring
Love, because that's the Beatles - but
beyond that, I think his show has the best music of all the Cirque shows. The
dancers in the show are outstanding. I just don't know. I wish I had the answer;
if I did, I'd call Criss up and tell him! [laughter] I just think that
audiences are tough. You'd better measure up and you're not going to please
everyone, every time. There are a lot of people that have gone in there that
have liked it. And there are people have gone in there and it just isn't their
cup of tea. The ones that don't like things tend to often speak louder than the
ones that do. That happens all the time. I get that here. The ones that don't
like me tend to send more emails than the ones that do.
Regarding Criss & Holly's former relationship:
JZ: I read a behind the scenes book about the Playboy
Mansion [Bunny Tales by Isabella St.
James]. She was in the first wave of girls before Holly, Bridget and Kendra
took over. She doesn't like Holly either. Holly seems to have an agenda. She's
very manipulative, in my opinion. I still wonder what went awry after that. I don't
think she would have gotten off that train, if something hadn't allegedly gone haywire behind the scenes. I think she thought Criss might be the next thing.
AJ: Sure, the next opportunity.
JZ: It didn't pan out.
AJ: I don't think that surprised anybody.
JZ: The one thing that's interesting is kind of the 'what
comes around, goes around.' I think she got a little bit publicly embarrassed.
She was very vocal about being in love, coming to Vegas and quitting her job at
Playboy [Magazine]. Then it didn't work out. the next thing we hear
is, "Oh, they're broken up!"
AJ: I t was fast. It was a fast timetable for that.
JZ: To me - and again, I don't know Criss at all - I'm sure
he's lovely. But, to me, he comes across as a player and probably not the nicest
guy.
AJ: He's a really nice guy. He's a single guy. I don't know,
but maybe it was the same situation as Hefner - but I don't think he had any
intentions of settling down. Perhaps that's what she wanted, but in the end he
moved on. That's probably not what she wanted. Again, I don't know. I haven't
even asked Criss about that. We're still friends, we talk; but not about that!
[laughter]
JZ: I think that's pretty interesting. That's the first
thing I thought: She's coming here, she's on your turf, and she seems to be
hanging around. Maybe she's hoping for reconciliation with Criss...
AJ: Well, I think she saw the other two girls - they both
got T.V. shows. [Editor's note: Bridget Marqaurdt landed "Bridget's Sexiest Beaches" on the Travel Channel and Kendra Wilkinson has an
aptly named show, "Kendra", on
the E! Channel.]
JZ: Well, I think both Bridget and Kendra moved on more
quickly, both personally and professionally.
Regarding the infamous "Cat Incident":
I also questioned Alicia about Criss and the cat incident. She says Angel completely adores Hammie and takes amazing care of him. No problems there - sounds like the only issue with pussy is Holly! I hope you take a moment to watch the video above. I know this is in the past, but there's some pretty cute chemistry there. It's almost enough to make me like Criss - almost.
Here we discuss Planet Hollywood's Peepshow, the surprise departure of Mel B (aka Melanie Brown, Scary Spice), her replacement (Broadway star Shoshana Bean) and Holly's new role. You might be curious as to the use of the photo, and rightfully so. Alicia sent me this picture, featuring the adorably hot Robert Buckley and I was dying to use it. Also, I'd rather give the headlining photo to Alicia and Robert. I'm kind of a bitch that way. You can see Holly in her Peepshow getup here. Now for the details:
Alicia Jacobs: Yes. I actually went to the premiere of Peepshow [the original with Mel B and Kelly Monaco] and I
liked it a lot. New Yorker Magazine
did a piece with me last month and asked my opinion on the best of Las Vegas
and they quoted me saying that I thought Peepshow was the best adult show in town, which was great. I
loved it! And now I have to go on the air and talk about it. She [Holly] debuts
June 22nd and I want to find a way to let my viewers know to see it
before the 22nd! [laughter] There's no way I'm going to help that
girl! You know, both of them are leaving - Mel B is leaving too. [Kelly was
already scheduled to leave. Mel B's departure is a surprise.]
Jenna Zine: She is? I thought that was her [Mel B's] show!
AJ: She is. Her and Kelly will do their last performance on
June 21st. You're getting this before it goes on the air tomorrow.
I'm bummed. Mel B does a great job! She looks incredible. Her abs and her body
are amazing and she does a great job with the show. It's very sexy. There are
some very hot men in the show as well, so there's something for everybody. The
music, costumes and choreography are outstanding. I'm surprised [that Mel B is
leaving] and I'm surprised that they cast Holly. I'm not going to lie to you. I
don't consider her much of a dancer. It's a very dance oriented show. She's not
a singer - which is fine, Kelly Monaco doesn't sing in the show either. But
Kelly - she won Dancing With The Stars.
Her body is phenomenal! If you do nothing else but look at her body, you'll be
inspired. She's very charming and adorable. What she lacked in stage presence,
she made up for. You still want to connect with her. And Mel B is incredible.
They have another woman - Shoshana Bean, a Broadway star - who's coming in to
take Mel B's place. I'm not familiar with her, but I will be. The show's about
to be quite different.
JZ: That's a really big change! I assumed that Holly would
be taking Kelly's place and Mel B would be staying.
AJ: We all did. It's shocking.
JZ: I thought, "Well, to me, that doesn't have the same
draw." I assumed people would still go because of Mel B - but I thought people
would see Holly, more because of the curiosity factor because of The Girls
Next Door. I wonder how that will do? I
don't know how shows go here, but my sense is that people will go see Holly out
of curiosity and then it will drop off - especially without Mel B as an anchor.
Now there's not really a star.
AJ: Well, you have to remember: to satisfy you're curiosity,
you have to buy a ticket. And, again, this isn't a time where people are
willing to spend money to satisfy their curiosity. Maybe some will... One thing I
learned, after my issue with Holly, is that The Girls Next Door had a huge following. I had never watched the show
in my life and I didn't know that much about Holly - until that day at the
party [Hugh Hefner's Las Vegas birthday bash, when Holly was a bitch to Alicia.] Then I was like, "Wow." I obviously picked up on her attitude
towards me and, whatever, it didn't affect me. But she definitely has a
following and maybe that was they're [the producers] mindset in casting her. I
don't think it was her dancing ability. I think we all saw Dancing
With The Stars and she didn't fare so well...
JZ: She wasn't the winner, we can put it that way!
[laughter] I just don't know how that show is going to do now. When I first
heard the news, I immediately thought of you. "What is Alicia going to do?
That's her town!"
AJ: I know! I think she came here with the intent of booking
some gig. She managed to do it - I give her credit for that.
What's Jennifer Aniston, if not a pit stop to love? Bradley Cooper, hot star of The Hangover, is denying rumors left and right that he's dating Aniston. I think the strain even caused him to pop a vein - he's practically begging the paparazzi to back off. So, what's his next move? Taking Renee Zellweger out to dinner, naturally! I'm beginning to think Bradley may not be too bright. Here are the details:
[Throughout the dinner they were playful and flirty. She
played with her hair a lot, and she would often touch his arm when she was
making a point about something," the source revealed. "At one point,
he seemed to want to whisper something to her as if it were a secret. He spoke
into her ear and then they both started giggling." When the check arrived, Bradley and Renee both reached for
it. "She told him she wanted to buy him dinner to pay him back for
something," said the diner. "And when he opened the check, it already
had her card in it!"]
Really Renee, you can put the breaks on the desperation. The two are costarring in the upcoming Case 39 - a flick that was filmed years ago and will finally be hitting theaters this summer. Perhaps the duo are gearing up for their promotional duties. If it's the old smokescreen/ruse to hide his burgeoning relationship with Jennifer, I'm going to punch someone.
Are we sure this wasn't Lindsay Lohan's idea? Diddy, ever the classy guy, hosted a huge vodka fueled party just days after Michael Jackson's passing. What goes hand and hand with Diddy? Apparently Jessica Alba. Who knew? I recently received this press release and it was so bizarre (and detailed!) that I couldn't resist sharing the laugh-out-loud results with you. So many women were after Diddy that it became a crowd hazard! Jessica Alba and Cash Warren got a babysitter for the evening so they could drink with Diddy! Michael Jackson's godson was in attendance - a suprise, given his godparent just died! I really can't do this any better justice than what showed up in my inbox. Please enjoy the tidbits below...
[Diddy escaping from the masses at his own event to the
secluded upstairs VIP area in MyHouse in Hollywood. Guests at Sean
"Diddy" Combs Last Train to Paris Launch Party Presented by CÎROC
clamored to gain access as they could see Diddy dancing and rocking the mic to
sing along on the balcony while the DJ was spinning the Michael Jackson songs
most of the night on June 27. Even with the house lights up warning guests that the
night's festivities for Sean "Diddy" Combs Last Train to Paris Launch
Party Presented by CÎROC at MyHouse in Hollywood was coming to an end revelers
were still clamoring to gain access to the VIP section creating a mob scene.
Diddy himself couldn't leave the area because a swarm of women surrounded him
and it became a hazard as some people were being pushed towards the stairs.
Diddy escaped the hairy situation by using the secret back exit and taking the
elevator down to exit the club.
Jessica Alba couldn't help but smile as she sang along and
danced to the Michael Jackson with her friends and hubby Cash Warren atop a
banquette at the Sean "Diddy" Combs Last Train to Paris Launch Party
Presented by CÎROC on June 27 at MyHouse in Hollywood.
Evan Ross sitting with current girlfriend (and rumored wife)
all alone in a huge banquet. His appearance at Sean "Diddy" Combs
Last Train to Paris Launch Party Presented by CÎROC at MyHouse in Hollywood was
a surprise as his Godfather Michael Jackson had just passed away days before.

congratulate and celebrate with good pal Diddy. Chris made his way into the
Exclusive VIP area and was seen drinking Voss bottled water the entire night.]
Wow! Well, there you have it. Ciroc Vodka and Diddy love Michael Jackson. Nothing says grief like high-end vodka with a twist.

Kid Rock has been known to date (and even marry) an iconic blonde or two in his time, which makes me think he's getting old and/or needs glasses. Turns out Kid has been dating American Idol alum, Kelly Pickler, for a year! How they managed to keep it a secret is a mystery - possibly even more so than the odd choice of mate. Not that he's exactly a prize. I'll say it 'cuz I know you're thinking it... what an odd couple! Even more bizarre? Fox News found out before I did! Thanks again to Rowdy, for the awesome video selection he sent my way.
If you live in Santa Barbara, now might be a good time to take a vacation - immediately. I'd be making plans to beat feet myself! Somehow, someone thought it would be a great idea to allow fans to pay their respects to Michael Jackson by opening up Neverland Ranch to a public viewing of the deceased pop star. Jackson's body will be brought to his home on Thursday evening, with fans arriving on Friday for the viewing and a private ceremony/funeral taking place on Sunday. Meanwhile, Colony Capital LLC (the owners of the property) have issued a letter to the residents of Santa Barbara to warn them that Friday could be the backdrop for a "global drama of epic proportion." Ummm, yeah - ya think? The letter is respectful of people's need to grieve, but that plan sounds completely insane. Click here to read the letter in full from Colony Capitol.

... but that's exactly what his mother must be thinking right now! Sometimes moms are right and you should listen to them - just a fact of life. Usher, who famously had a falling out with his mother/manager over his choice of wife, is now divorcing Tameka Foster. Now, I ain't saying she's a gold digger, but she's gonna make damn sure to get as much monetary support out of Usher as she can possibly squeeze. Rumors of a split started swirling after Tameka chose to jet off to another country for plastic surgery without telling Usher. Unfortunately she suffered complications during the procedure, resulting in Usher ultimately founding out about the trip. Naturally they have a differing opinion of when their separation occurred, with Usher saying they split in July of 2008. Meanwhile, Tameka claims the divorce proceedings are a shock and says they were together up until a few weeks ago. I think we've got two morals of the story here: listen to your momma - she can smell bad news from a mile away - and never, ever go on a plastic surgery jaunt out of the country without checking in with your husband! It seems the risk of him showing up and not liking what he finds is pretty damn high...
UPDATE: Usher has requested a paternity test, claiming that he's suspicious six month old son, Naviyd, might not be his. Reportedly, Usher was gone a lot and says their sex life was limited. This is a bit dated, but nothing sums it up better than, "Oh, snap!"
Paris Hilton has succumbed to the condition all people give into when not getting laid - sex with the ex that turns into a relationship rerun. I'm amazed she's doing the backslide - I hear she really likes to move forward. This is indeed the latest - Paris and Doug "Douchebag" Reinhardt are back together! No real surprise - they both have pretty low standards. Doug must have been waiting by the phone this whole time. Now the meaning in his life has returned. How lovely. Of course the reunited lovers have taken to Twitter to let the world know of their sexual habits joy. I hope the second time around sticks for these two. Everything finds it's own level and I think this couple has definitely found theirs! Congratulations.
