The next season of the Apprentice is going to take place in Los Angeles. I'm sure tasks will include selling fake boobs and setting up new tanning salon businesses. In related news, Mr. Trump, who doesn't drink and avoids people who do, is launching a vodka line.

Gwynnie: When are you going to confirm you're pregnant? It's sooo obvious. And you've been in our Baby Tracker for the last month.

Okay, so Nick and Jessica are done. That's old news. The latest scoop is that they didn't have a prenup, so things are gonna get a little nasty. Jess made $35 mill last year -- and in California you have to split all the martial assets 50-50 -- so she is going to be paying big for the split.

But all that is just side dish. I think what people are waiting for now is to see who Jessica hooks up with first. (You know Nick is going for the strippers and college chicks. No big surprise -- that's been his game for the last year.) So let's play matchmaker for Jess. Which celebrity do you think she should hook with? She's been linked to Johnny Knoxville and Bam Margera, so you can see the type she's after as of late. She's hot for the bad boy with the whole grunge thing happening.

Post your picks for Jessica's new honey below, and I'll add some pictures of your suggestions as we go.

I stayed up late to watch Barbara's 10 Most Fascinating Peeps piece. Of course I had to hear what creepy Tom Cruise had to say about the TomKitten and the sonogram. Did any of you guys watch it? Here's what I thought -- tell me if you agree.
Dakota Fanning: She's cute and smart, but the kid just creeps me out. She's like a Stepford. What's with the permagrin? That laugh. And how can a kid her age not backtalk to her parents? Everybody does when they're that age. Remember, Mom?
Lance Armstrong: Why did Sheryl Crow join Lance during his interview? Was she picked as the fascinating person? No. Lance was the fascinating one, yet there she was cozying up to him on the couch during his interview. Kiss, kiss. And, again, I must call her to task for recently saying that she always tries to keep her relationship with Lance private. Honey, you joined him during his Barbara Walters interview. That's as far away from private as you can get.
Tom Mesereau: He's as creepy as his client Michael Jackson. All I could think of during the interview is that I wanted to have at his head with a pair of clippers. He's rockin' some crazy colonial period 'do.
Kanye West: He's so cocky. So cocky. But he's smart, talented, stylish... and he has a damn nice smile. And he said he gets pissed when people use incorrect grammar. So make sure you be checking your spelling before you be posting anything in the comments section.
Jamie Foxx: He's funny and he's an accomplished actor, but I recently heard tracks from his upcoming album and they were bad. Not good bad. Bad bad.
Tom Cruise: He's a Freak with a capital F. He did give up some good nuggets on "Kate" and the kitten though: They plan to marry next summer or fall. "Kate" will be able to make noise while she gives birth. (How sweet of him.) And Babs said "Kate" is six months pregnant. Also, Tom said he doesn't regret anything he's said in the last year, including the trash talk on Brooke Shields and calling Matt Lauer glib. That's good because I don't regret anything I've called him all year either. Plus: Check out Tom's latest mission -- in Shanghai. The focus of the trip was supposed to be to discuss MI:3, which is filming there. But talk quickly turned to the future Mrs. Cruise.
Camilla Parker Bowles: The less photos I have to see of Camilla and Charles, the better. It just makes me miss the classy, beautiful Diana.

Rumors that Simon Cowell wouldn't be on American Idol this season were just that: rumors. Fox announced earlier today the king of insults will be back for this season -- and many seasons to come.

This news comes with the settlement of a lawsuit against Cowell by another British music mogul Simon Fuller. The copyright infringement lawsuit -- Fuller said Cowell copied the format of his Pop Idol for Cowell's X-Factor -- was reportedly preventing Fox from signing a deal to keep Cowell on Idol. Fuller and Cowell settled their suit out of court.

Nick Lachey is rebounding quite nicely after his split with diva Jessica.

Page Six reports that the Nicky and his buddy, a billionaire named Peter Loftin, were boozin' it up with "a bevy of babes" at a nightclub in Miami the other night.

Nick's chick of choice? A "buxom lass who looked dazed and drunk as she hung all over him. She had big boobs but was clearly not as pretty as Jessica."

Glad to see he's going for quality women.

Meanwhile, Jessica has been getting over their split by tanning. Here she is on her way out of a tanning salon. She's practically waving her hand, which is most definitely without a ring.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are getting serious. The couple -- and their families -- celebrated Thanksgiving together in Nashville at Keith's home.

How did the whole "meet the parents" thing go? According to the NY Daily News, very well. Throughout the weekend, there were many sightings of the group doing fun family things. Nic and her dad were seen jogging, Keith and the moms were out walking together and the whole group was spotted antiquing.

Here's a rare pic of Nic and Keith, who are reportedly engaged, looking lovey-dovey.

The only hang up at this point is that Nic's friends are said to be concerned about Keith's past. Apparently he was a big cokehead at one point. But drug use is like a prerequisite in Hollywood.

The Skank's father has a new addition.

Rod Stewart's fiance, Penny Lancaster, has given birth to a baby boy.

The little crooner was born at 2:24 a.m. Sunday in London and weighed in at 7 lbs. 7 oz. Mother and son are doing well.

Here's hoping that this bouncing baby boy turns out nothing like his eldest sister.

In other baby news, Jennifer Garner still hasn't popped yet. For the love of God, will someone convince her doctor to induce her and put her out of her misery? The poor girl looks so uncomfortable. And because she hasn't given birth yet, some of y'all might want to change your guesses in Celebrity Baby Birth Game: Jennifer Garner & Ben Affleck Edition.

After over 15 years, Busta Rhymes chopped off his signature dreads. Because celebs can't live a moment out of the limelight, of course it was all captured on video.

Can you say publicity stunt?

D-list morons Kimberly "Skank" Stewart and Laguna Beach Talan Torriero -- who became engaged November 15 after dating for two weeks -- have called off their engagement.

"It was just too soon to enter into a lifelong commitment," the couple said in a statement to People.com. "It is better to have a brief engagement than a short marriage. The couple continue to share their time together and remain open to whatever the future may hold."

Now I hate her more... as if that was possible.

Hey, Jude. Cheating again? Late last week Jude Law was caught cozying up to a brunette hoochie mama in the back of a taxi in London. Here are some photos of the incident. He reportedly stopped getting frisky with her when he noticed the flashes from photogs. I just can't feel bad for Sienna, who was naive enough to take him back and assume he wouldn't stray again.

Now that Nick Lachey doesn't have his estranged wife Jessica's income at his disposal, it's back to work.

The newlysplit singer-actor has inked a deal with the WB to star in a TV sitcom about a baseball star who is a newlywed. Nick previously appeared in the WB series Charmed.

Here's hoping that his new show charms viewers. Until he settles up with Jessica, I suspect he'll be on a tight budget. That means he won't be buying body shots for all those strippers and college girls.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire continued to blow up over the weekend, raking in an estimated $408 million (!) at the worldwide box office. Here are the top 10 movies at the North American box office during the November 25-27 weekend:
1. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: $54.9 million
2. Walk the Line: $19.7 million
3. Yours, Mine & Ours: $17.5 million
4. Chicken Little: $12.4 million
5. Rent: $10.7 million

I really don't think that there's bigger news than Nick and Jessica's split (!), but here are the other hot headlines:

Check out our new Nick & Jessica photo gallery: Nick Lachey & Jessica Simpson End Their Marriage.

There are old pictures, the last photo of them together (just a week ago!) -- the whole shebang.

And I also want to give Nick & Jess props for being smart about breaking the big news. 10pm on the night before Thanksgiving -- when everyone is traveling home for the holiday -- is pretty damn clever. These celebrities are getting smarter!

Happy Thanksgiving!

After endless denials, Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey confirm to Us Weekly that they have split.

A month after Us first reported the split, the couple jointly announced an official separation. "After three years of marriage, and careful thought and consideration, we have decided to part ways," they said in a statement. "This is the mutual decision of two people with an enormous amount of respect and admiration for each other. We hope that you respect our privacy during this difficult time."

When Us first broke the story on October 6, publicists for both stars issued denials. But the couple rarely was seen together after that. Jessica frequently was without her wedding ring and spent their anniversary in Africa; Nick was often seen partying and there were rumors he hooked up with some college chick. Last night he attended the American Music Awards by himself.

The biggest loser in the situation is Jessica's father, Joe Simpson, who basically swore on his life that the couple was still happily married. The truth is, he has a huge stake in keeping them together as Jessica's manager. And his daughter will probably also have to pay Nick a pretty penny in alimony. She's worth a lot more than he is.

After dating for a few years, Nick and his virgin bride Jessica tied the knot in Austin, Texas in October 2002. Still relatively unknown at the time, the couple then signed on to do a reality show for MTV about their first year of marriage called Newlyweds. The show catapulted them to mainstream fame -- they both released albums, Jess starred in Dukes of Hazzard last year and also launched product lines (body lotions and clothing). In 2004, Jessica earned $35 million.

Interestingly, when Jessica started filming Dukes is when talk of trouble in their marriage began. With her hot new bod, she started hitting the club scene and really enjoyed the attention she was getting from men, including her married Dukescostar Johnny Knoxville. There were rumors of romance between the costars, as well as a fling between Jess and Jackass star Bam Margera.

Maybe now that they are finally coming clean, they can move on with their lives. I can't wait to see who they hook up with next!

Although some pics were leaked last month, the first official photos of Sean Preston Federline will be released today in the December 5 issue of People magazine. Britney and K-Fed pose with their bundle of joy and talk about their Thanksgiving plans. (They'll watch the parade and put up Christmas decorations -- in between Jell-o shots and shower trysts.) But will they explain why they had their kid out at 2:30am over the weekend? I think not.

And I have to say "ha ha" to OK! magazine. Their fluff pieces are infuriating in general, but last week's cover story on the Feds was ridiculous. Speaking only to Brit's publicist, they wrote an article all about Britney and Kevin's peachy keen marriage. (Any couple with a newborn can tell you that things aren't perfect with a new baby in the house.) Obviously OK! printed the drivel in hopes of striking a deal with the couple to print these baby photos. Nice try!

In next Tuesday's Barbara Walters special, Tom Cruise says that he will "forever be jumping on couches." Well then -- I guess I'll forever be cringing at his creepiness. Tom also said that that he recently purchased a sonogram machine so that he and his prisoner gal pal, Katie Holmes, can constantly monitor their spawn. More cringing.

Kate Moss must have enjoyed detoxing at rehab so much that she recommended it to a friend. Make that a boyfriend. Her on-again/off-again crackhead lover Pete Doherty flew to the Meadows clinic in Arizona on Saturday for treatment of his numerous addictions. May this place have what all the other places didn't have.

And I'm sure I'm going to catch some flack for calling Petey a crackhead, but I call 'em like I see 'em. So bring it on.

Speaking of Kate, clearly the girl is desperate for work. Warning: You'll see some skin, but it's worth it in a "What the hell just happened?" kind of way.

There are a few celebs I just can't deal with anymore. I don't want to see them on the red carpet, on a magazine cover or on my TV set. I don't care who they're sleeping with, posing with, starring with or shopping with. I want to breakup with them. I want them to go away. Vanish. Disappear. Buh-bye. Here are my picks for the most annoying celebrities right now:
1. Paris Hilton & family
2. Jessica Simpson & family
3. Lindsay Lohan & family
4. Kimberly Stewart
5. The cast of Desperate Housewives with the exception of Felicity Huffman

Now, tell me who pushes your buttons. If you had three wishes, who would you send away?

Before the clock strikes midnight, I wanted to mention that it's been eight years since rock 'n' roll icon Michael Hutchence died. His former band, INXS, is touring again and in they're in NYC tonight... though now they have a new, less charismatic frontman. I'll never get over the fact that he was picked on a reality TV show -- there's just no magic in that.

In a related star sighting, one member of my gosse posse spotted Michael's ex, Helena Christensen, recently outside HK restaurant in Hell's Kitchen, NYC. "She was quite possibly the most beautiful woman Earth," said my spy. "Her reddish-brown hair was pulled up into a pony/bun. She was wearing brown slouchy boots. And her mouth... well, let's just say that it starts at one ear and ends at the other. That's not a bad thing, it's just really wide. She's stunningly beautiful."

Brad Pitt and Angelina made their first public appearance as a couple over the weekend. They arrived separately -- but later sat together -- at the opening of the Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, KY. (See photo.) Numerous stars were in attendance at the event, including Bill Clinton, Matt Lauer, Bryant Gumbel and, of course, the one and only Muhammad Ali. Access Hollywood ran video footage of Brad and Angelina awkwardly trying to dance during the show while waving lights in the air. (No wonder Jen's been dancing up a storm with Vince!) Angie was decked out in a stunning red dress; a dark-haired Brad didn't look too shabby either in a tux.

Next stop: The red carpet.

Maybe the warm weather in L.A. was making Britney and Kevin hot and bothered. Now that the trashy twosome are spending time in NYC, they seem a lot happier. Page Six reports that last week, the duo caught Sweet Charity -- the show in which they're rumored to be in talks to costar -- and got some retail therapy. Britney even got a manicure with new, superlong fingernails -- always great for handling an infant and changing diapers. On Friday night, they went to hotspot Marquee and totally got liquored up with their posse, which included Kevin's brother. According to a spy, they seemed very cuddly and happy. But get this: They left the place at 2:30am, and as they were driving off (presumably in a chauffer-driven vehicle) their kid, Sean Preston, was seen in the back of the car! The kid is two months old and is already keeping the hours of a rock star.

It looks like David Letterman and Oprah Winfrey are going to kiss and make up.

After publicly "feuding" for years, Oprah finally accepted Dave's invitation to appear on his show. She'll be on next Thursday -- the same night that her Broadway play, the Color Purple, opens in NYC. The last time she appeared on the show was May 2, 1989.

The reasons for their feud are unclear, but it's been going on for years. In fact, Dave has built segments around their rift. In one, stagehands read transcripts from Oprah's talk show every night. Then for a while he kept an "Oprah Log," recording each day that passed without Oprah calling him. Dave also joked about wanting O on his show to hold "the Super Bowl of love." Whatever exactly that entailed was unclear.

For her part, Oprah told Time magazine in 2003 that she didn't like being the butt of Dave's jokes. "I felt completely uncomfortable sitting in that chair," said O about her previous two guest spots, "and I vowed I would not ever put myself in that position again."

The feud has been more of a public event than a private one. When Dave's son, Harry, was born, Oprah sent him what she called the best baby gift she's ever given: a huge tub of children's books. At the time she called his bluff, inviting him on her show. The press shy Dave turned her down.

"Here's what would happen," said Dave at the time. "I would go on the Oprah show, and I would break down and sob like a little girl... I don't want to have that happen. I'd feel ridiculous. I'd never be able to live that down, that Oprah would make me sob."

Mark your calendars. Again, that's next Thursday, December 1.

In my family, we play this little pregnancy game. Around the time someone is ready to give birth, we each guess the date of birth, height, weight and sex of the baby. It isn't Price Is Right -- you don't win a new car if you get it right. You get bragging rights -- and in my family that's actually better than a new car.

Everyone knows that beautiful mama-to-be Jennifer Garner is enormous. She's been enormous since August. Word is that her due date is right after Thanksgiving. So let's have a little fun and post guesses for baby Affleck below. Now, we already know Jen's having a girl, so no need to post the sex. Instead, why don't you guess the baby's name as well. Have some fun with it.

Update: Jennifer Garner gave birth to a baby girl on December 1 in L.A. She and Ben named her Violet. Congrats to Sara and Bonnie, who guessed that the baby would be born on 12-1 and got her name correct.

Over the weekend Eva Longoria poked fun at her Desperate Housewives castmates when she hosted Saturday Night Live. (The musical guest was Korn.) In one skit, she mocked the rumored feud between the Desperate divas at a Vanity Fair photo shoot earlier this year.

I can imagine that things on the Housewives set are more tense than usual today. In fact, I bet Teri Hatcher is popping off her Lee Press-On Nails and gearing up for a brawl as I type.

Here are some pics from Eva's SNL gig...

Last night, green celebs -- like Leonardo DiCaprio, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw and Tom Hanks -- were on parade for the TBS special Earth to America, an effort to raise awareness of issues concerning the planet. Here are some photo highlights...

As anticipated, songbird Christina Aguilera married Jordan Bratman in northern California's Napa Valley over the weekend. Here's everything you need to know about the celebrity wedding... and more.

Day One: The five-day event began on Wednesday when Christina, Jordan and their Cavalier King Charles spaniel arrived via private jet at the Napa Airport. They spent the night having a candlelight dinner at the swanky French Laundry restaurant. They left holding hands, then headed to their $3,500-a-night cottage at the Auberge du Soleil Inn. Their private accommodations had a fireplace, steam shower and hot tub.
Day Two: On Thursday, guests began to arrive. They were met at the airport and chauffeured to their hotel in Christina's Rolls Royce Phantom, which was shipped in from L.A. on a truck for the occasion. Each wedding guest received a wedding gift package with lots of presents from the couple. That night, Christina, Jordan and their friends had a four-hour dinner party at La Encantada estate.
Day Three: Friday was the rehearsal dinner, which was a Japanese-themed party with decorations like lanterns, fresh bamboo and roses. Speeches were made throughout dinner, which was catered by L.A.'s Hamasaku restaurant. Sharon Stone is the only known celebrity in attendance.
Day Four: Christina spent the afternoon on Saturday getting ready in her cottage at Napa’s Auberge du Soleil hotel. Her hair was decorated in jewels and pulled back tightly in a bun topped by white flowers. At 3pm, she left for the wedding site -- the Staglin Family Vineyard -- in a black stretch limo. Once there, Christina put on her Christian Lacroix dress. Her bridesmaids wore dresses by Stevie Wonder's wife, designer Kai Milla. Shortly after 6 pm, the happy couple exchanged vows under a mountainside tent in front of about 130 formally dressed family members and friends. A gospel choir provided the music. Their wedding bands were designed by London jeweler Stephen Webster, who also created Christina's five-carat, diamond-and-platinum engagement ring.
Day Five: The couple departed for an extended honeymoon at an undisclosed location.

Although they're rich and famous, celebrity BFFs Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox also share a traditional friendship. Recently, when Jennifer and Courteney had plans to hang, Jen brought along new beau Vince so he and Court could get to know each other better. Here are photos of the group chillin' together. Looks like Courteney digs Jen's new man. And Jen and Vince sure look happy.

How lame is Desperate Housewives? If you didn't watch last night's show -- and don't want to know what happened -- stop reading now. In one of the most overused soap opera plot devices, Gabrielle lost her baby after she took a nasty tumble down the stairs. How unoriginal. I've seen it on General Hospital, One Live to Live... I bet every daytime soap has used it at least once. I really think Desperate Housewives is going down the tubes. If you agree -- or disagree -- put in your two cents about the show here.
