Amanda Peet must be on a total high these days. Her new show, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, is being touted as one of the top new shows of season. Have you guys seen it? I'm obsessed. Our TV Cocktail blogger Kate writes awesome Studio 60 recaps, so be sure to check 'em out.

But besides getting to hang out with Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitford all day (lucky girl!), Miss Peet has been a busy lady off the set, too! She's four months pregnant with her first baby, and is reportedly jumping on the wedding bandwagon this weekend. The groom? David Benioff, her longtime boyfriend and baby-to-be's daddy. The couple announced their engagement in July 2005.

On the Late Show with David Letterman, Amanda told the audience she was having some pre-wedding nightmares, saying about the dreams:

"I go to the bathroom and I come back to the party and everyone is gone except for a few distant uncles of David's left."

We're sure she'll be fine! And how refreshing is it that a star is actually not having a "secret/surprise" ceremony?

Hey Guys!

It's Lindsey here to bring you today's gossip. I just came across this story that claims Vanessa Minnillo refuses to marry Nick Lachey. I'm not sure that I believe there's any truth to it, but I'll throw it out there for 'ya.

Apparently, Ness's friends are saying she thinks Nick isn't "manly" enough for her -- that she ultimately wants to end up with a jock, not a former boy-bander. According to her buddy:

"She was absolutely nuts about New York Yankee star Derek Jeter, and she's also been linked to Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. She grew up a cheerleader and she loves being in the arms of a real athlete."

OK, fine, she has been linked to some top athletes, but it's not like Nick is a total slacker, either! Besides, if she thought he wasn't jock enough, why would she be with him in the first place? I'm not saying I think they should get hitched any time soon, but I'm not ruling the possibility out based on this info.

On a side note, I can so see Vanessa as a cheerleader -- not that there's anything wrong with that, I was one, too!

What about you guys? Do you think Vanessa would be better off with a professional player?

The dets: Happened this morning at 10:30am. Bahamas. 18 days after the death of her son. 21 days after the birth of their daughter. Ceremony took place while they were sailing.

Holy smokes! Paris Hilton and Travis Barker are really together? I sorta thought that was a joke. (Wonder what her parents think.) But here they are in Amsterdam, Holland this morning -- somewhere between 3:30 and 5am. In this pic, you'll notice Paris is wearing one of her many disguises... a black wig.

What do you think of the ISes -- Travis and Paris? How many days until they publicly start trashing each other? How many days till a sex tape surfaces? How many days until she's making out with someone else? Get fired up below.

Jessica Simpson's hairstylist/BFF Ken Paves has diarrhea of the mouth.

According to Page Six, Joe Simpson's favorite daughter was supposed to shoot a commercial for Direct TV the other day, but suddenly fell ill. The crew was left standing around for an hour because Jessica had some type of stomach bug. But apparently the people on the set started getting cranky and just wanted Jess to shoot that commercial already. Maybe they thought she was just being a diva? That's when Ken was heard announcing: "Well, what do you want her to do? [Bleep] her pants?"

I'm sure he was trying to help, but could ya give a girl a little privacy and not broadcast her problems to the world?

I want to screech in horror – Dustin Diamond has a sex tape!

Believe it or not, my dad gave me the heads up that Saved By the Bell's Screech has a sex tape. While flipping around on TV last night (he's relentless with that remote), he stopped on Scarborough Country and they were talking about Dustin's new money-making venture.

In June, Dustin solicited money from his "fans" to help him save his house from foreclosure. Shortly after, he started selling t-shirts, which clearly nobody bought. So now he's shilling a sex tape.

If any of you guys have even the slightest interest in watching Dustin Diamond do it (barf!), please explain yourself below. Come on… I'm waiting.

Herpes! Kiddie porn! Prostitution! When celebrities decide that divorce is the only option for their failing marriages, things get down and dirty. In this week's Daily Blabber video blog, I'm talkin' nasty celebrity divorces.

Take a look, then cast your vote…

But now Larry Birkhead, the guy who Anna Nicole was dating previously -- and who was thought to be the baby's dad -- is speaking out to maintain his position that he is this child's father. Here's the latest from his Website:

I will just say the situation has out of hand. In regards to the paternity portion of the show, the Larry King interview is laughable. In case there is any confusion, I am not laughing at myself. I firmly believe the truth will come out soon and people will understand where I am coming from.

I maintain that I am THE PROUD FATHER, and look forward to a paternity test.

I would like to say that I too am grieving the loss of Daniel Smith. He was a great kid, and I will miss him.

I think this whole thing is unfortunate and look forward to a positive resolution.

Larry Birkhead

I just don't know who to believe anymore! They're all pretty much lacking in the credibility department. So it will be interesting to see who turns out to be telling the truth.

Nicole Richie is like so totally not happy that CNN ran a story alleging that she was seeking in-patient care for an eating disorder. She spoke out about it on her MySpace page:

"Contrary to CNN's false accusations, I did not check myself into an eating disorder rehab. I don’t know why or how this rumor started, but I am home, in LA, and very happy. I do not have an eating disorder, and I don't know how many times I have to say it. I’ve repeated myself so many times, I feel like a broken record. Who ever started this rumor is evil and mean, but it’s not true. I am happy, and healthy, and living my life."

After typing all those words, Nicole was so exhausted -- because she never eats -- that she had to lay down and sleep for a few week.

It's Official: Harry Hamlin has worse moves than...

...Jerry Springer!

Oh my gawd! Lisa Rinna must be devastated that "my Harry" is out of the competition so early on. Now how is she going to afford her collagen injections?

Read a recap of last night's Dancing with the Stars.

My Name Is Earl star Jaime Pressley is getting married! Her groom? A DJ named Eric Cubiche, who she's been best friends with for nine years.

Here's hoping Jaime's nuptials go off a little smoother than her counterpart Joy's did last year on her sitcom when ad runk Earl crashed Joy's wedding and accidentally broke her nose. As you can imagine, her nose was... totally outta joint. Love that show.

PerezHilton.com reports that she's also pregnant, but there's been no official confirmation.

Plus: Jaime -- and the cast of Earl -- answer the questions of iVillage surfers in Ask the Stars.

Cyril Wecht – the forensic pathologist, who performed an autopsy on Anna Nicole Smith's son, Daniel – tells People.com that the 20-year-old died due to a lethal combination of methadone, Zoloft and Lexapro. Those drugs apparently caused the cardiac dysrhythmia that led to Daniel's death.

Related:

As I mentioned earlier, Anna Nicole Smith's lawyer BFF Howard K. Stern dropped the bomb/nonbomb that he is the father of Anna Nicole's baby girl.

During a Larry King exclusive last night, the exhausted and pale looking Howard – who has been helping Anna Nicole cope with the death of her son, Daniel – announced that he is the "proud father" of Dannie Lynn Hope. This is a shocking twist because photographer Larry Birkhead told Entertainment Tonight just last week that he is Anna Nicole's baby daddy.

Some women can't get one guy to claim responsibility for fathering their kid. Anna Nicole's got two guys fighting about it!

Howard also revealed…

The UK tab The Sun is playing a little guessing game this morning called What's got up Kate's nose?, in which they guess which powdered substance appears in the supermodel's nostril in a photo taken Monday.

Everyone knows what it is, of course. This is "Cocaine Kate" we're talking about. But some readers humored the paper by suggesting things like talc, toothpaste and even zit cream.

Hmmm... My guess would be powdered sugar from a doughnut. Oh wait -- she doesn't eat. How about that deodorizing powder you sprinkle on the carpet before you vacuum, which comes in scents like "Island Mist" or "Pet Fresh"? Nah -- she doesn't vacuum... well, the carpet anyway.

The photo was taken on Monday night at her boyfriend Pete Doherty's Babyshambles gig in Ireland -- just hours after he was released from rehab.

Howard K. Stern is the father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby! He's on Larry King right now talking about it, so put it on.

The newborn's name is Dannie Lynn Hope -- named after her late son, Daniel.

C-R-A-Z-Y!

After getting ripped for a total bummer season two, they seemed to have bounced back on premiere night nabbing some great ratings.

Sunday night's show was watched by about 24 million viewers, according to the Nielsen ratings. They easily won the 9pm timeslot.

My coworker Lindsey wrote a recap of Sunday's Housewives premiere for TV Cocktail if you missed it or want to talk about it.

So what does all this mean? Well, to me it means that we're going to be stuck with Eva Longoria's mug for a while longer.

Damn!

Ladies and Gentleman: Don't mess with Star Jones.

According to Us, Star and her "hubby" Al Reynolds are suing The National Enquirer. Apparently they are peeved over an article published in the October 2, 2006 issue titled "Star Jones' Husband Walks Out!"

Their lawyer sent a letter to The Enquirer saying that the article is "false and defamatory" and has done "grave damage to their reputations, both publicly and privately."

The letter also blasts the tabloid for saying that Al is gay, a rumor that has been circulating since before Star and Al even got married. It says: "You have also chosen to state that Mr. Reynolds is gay. While Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds believe that everyone should be free to make their own choice concerning sexual preference and that there is nothing wrong with being gay, you have nonetheless chosen to falsely state that Mr. Reynolds is gay."

Star's relationship with The Enquirer hasn't been peachy keen... Earlier this year the magazine broke the news that Star was rushed to the hospital after a botched breast lift. Star's camp initially denied the story, then the former talk show host later confirmed it was true. Before and after that the mag printed numerous stories suggesting Al is gay.

Although some could argue that Star and Al's lawsuit comes at a time when they could use the extra income (she was canned from The View in June), their rep told Us: "Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds have tried to handle these vicious lies and attempts at character assassination with quiet dignity for far too long...Now they will pursue immediate legal action against anyone who makes false statements about their family."

Yesterday, I told you that David Hasselhoff called 911 on Sunday night to report that his daughter Hayley attempted suicide. But his soon-to-be ex-wife, Pamela Bach, now says the Hoff is lying.

Pamela tells TMZ.com that their daughter never attempted suicide. She says David called the police to exact revenge against her after threatening: "You're going down. I'm calling the police."

So what's Pamela's version of what happened at casa Hasselhoff on Sunday night?

It seems like these two will do anything to piss off one another (and get media attention). But to involve their children like this is pretty pathetic.

Well I've uncovered new info about Janet Jackson, Justin Timberlake and nipplegate for ya. Janet actually blames Justin for the boob-exposing incident, which took place during halftime at the 2004 Super Bowl.

Here's what she told Oprah about JT today:

"We haven't spoken. But I consider him a friend, and I'm very loyal, and friendship is very important to me. He has reached out to speak with me. Like I said, friendship is very important to me – and certain things you just don't do to friends. And in my own time, I'll give him a call."

I always thought that Janet and Justin were in cahoots with the nipple flash. Or I thought she was solely responsible. But I never thought he was at fault... which is what she's saying by telling us that she refuses to take his calls. Don't you think he seems too goodie-goodie to purposely rip off someone's top -- on live, national television? After all, underneath all his recent tough talk about sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, Justin's really just a dorky, curly-haired boy bander.

On another note, I'm so not interested in Janet Jackson's new album. I dug her back in college when she put out the janet album, but since then I've totally lost interest. She seems like a mismatch with her pimpish boyfriend Jermaine Dupree, her music is beat and I'm sick of seeing her boobs all the time.

Maybe she should move to Ireland with her brother Michael and help him open his leprechaun-inspired theme park.

Update: This was posted before Oprah aired based on an article on People.com, which has since changed. On Oprah, Janet said she was upset that JT failed to stick up for her after the incident -- not that he was responsible for it. Not that Justin would argue with that. He recently told MTV: "If there was something I could have done in her defense that was more than I realized then, I would have. I probably got 10 percent of the blame." So Justin is not to blame for the boob exposure... and I still think Janet is still beat and should open a leprechaun-inspired theme park with her brother.

Let's play fill in the blank with today's photo from Star Snapshots.

According to TMZ, the Hoff's 14-year-old daughter tried to commit suicide at the family's San Fernando Valley home. (David and his estranged wife, Pamela Bach, trade off who stays in their family home based on who has custody of the children.) At 6:30 pm, David called 911 to report that his daughter Hayley had "cut herself." The girl was taken to a local hospital for treatment and the case is being handled by The Mental Evaluation Unit of LAPD.

David and Pamela filed for divorce earlier this year. In court papers filed last December, Pamela alleged that David "grabbed me and pushed me hard into a car." She added: "In the past, he has also broken my nose and called me 'whore,' 'c**t,' 'bitch,' 'slut' and 'drug addict' in front of our children." Pamela also said that David told her that "he was going to break through my security gate, drive his car through the house, beat the door down and go into the house and take my(sic) all of my jewelry and sell it." David has denied all the allegations.

Sounds like they're in desperate need of family counseling.

Last week up north in Canada, Grey's Anatomy addicts flipped on their TVs to catch the premiere of their favorite show. But due to a feed problem, CTV actually aired this week's episode instead of last week's premiere.

Meaning? Our friends over at TV Cocktail have a recap of this Thursday's entire episode of Grey's Anatomy.

For about 30 seconds I was all like: I'm not gonna read it. I'm just gonna wait. Willpower, Suzy. Willpower. Yeah, that lasted.

Read Major Grey's Anatomy Spoiler for Week 2

Somebody must have given Aaron Carter a good talking to. The 18-year-old singer will not be marrying Kari Ann Peniche, the Playboy Playmate who previously dated his brother, Nick. In fact, they're no longer even dating.

According to People.com, Aaron called off his engagement on Friday after just six days. Aaron's rep confirmed the split saying, "He decided he had made a mistake. He's young and got caught up in the moment. He hopes they can be friends."

As for the bunny, she claims it was a mutual decision. "He's really young and just needs to get his act together," she said. "I don't know what's going on right now. We're friends and maybe we'll get back together sometime. We haven't ruled out getting back together."

The buzz is that Aaron just popped the question to generate buzz for his upcoming reality show, House of Carter, in which he'll appear with his Backstreet Boys brother and their sisters. But I think he's an 18-year-old boy who bedded a Playboy Playmate. Of course he promised her the world… before his managers got their hands on him.

Not to worry, young Aaron. As a celebrity, there are many more Playmates ahead. Just wait until you make it into the grotto. You'll be handing out diamonds left and right.

Grab the Kleenex and sit down for a moment. I have some difficult news to break. Okay. Deep breath. Here goes...

Lindsay Lohan and Harry Morton have ended their three-month relationship. I know, it's sad. Tragic almost. I had a lot of confidence that they'd make it to the four-month mark. But no -- the dream is over.

Or, it another words: Who gives a crap?

People.com has a 15-paragraph article on the breakup. A little unnecessary, no? Tomorrow it will be just someone else. Speaking of... Who do you think she'll date next? Make predictions below.

I know I said I didn't need to see it... but I had to look anyway. I bet you will want to as well.

Can you believe that Nicole Richie hooked up with that clown? Ickers.

Apparently little Kaya struck a pose for Melissa Odabash, who makes stylish spandex (as in bathing suits) the stars love. According to the New York Daily News, one photo was of the little girl topless, peeking over her left shoulder at the camera, with white shorts and a back tattoo." In other photos, she wore a string bikini.

The photos have since been moved into a password protected part of Melissa Odabash's site and will eventually be removed, says a spokesperson for the company.

Cindy's rep downplayed the incident, saying: "Oh my God, that's ridiculous. It's a stick-on tattoo! … Cindy's friends own this company. It was just a fun little photo shoot they did in Malibu one day. Kaya is not modeling."

So I'm writing Grey's Anatomy recaps for iVillage's new TV blog, TV Cocktail. So I thought I'd post the intro here too and if you want to read the whole thing, you can pop over to TV Cocktail and check it out. There are lots and lots of great offerings on that site -- which is headed by a great friend of mine named Sarah Mac -- including TV news, photos, recaps on a slew of shows (Dancing with Stars, Studio 60, Laguna Beach, Prison Break, America's Next Top Model, etc). You'll love it.

Last night's Grey's Anatomy picked up the day after the action-packed finale, where Meredith was left standing facing Derek and Finn. The opening sequence alone answered a lot of questions -- and all without a single word of dialogue, only those annoying Meredith voiceovers.

So what were those burning questions and answers? Here ya go…

Who did Meredith choose?
Meredith chose… nobody. She ran out of the hospital in her long black evening gown.

Did Addison find out that Derek slept with Meredith?
Yep! Apparently Addison put on Derek's suit jacket later that night… and found Meredith's missing panties in the pocket. More on that later.

But seriously... Dateline has obtained never-before-heard police audiotapes of Paris discussing the burglary of Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis. In this sneak preview, you actually get to hear Paris say to a police officer: "I'm not, like, that smart." It sorta makes my day.

And, yes, I'm so DVRing Dateline on Saturday night. I can't wait to see what other gems come from behind those cosmetically enhanced lips.

Ready, set, go!

When Us Weekly reported that Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson were dating, I thought the gossip was just too good to be true. But now People confirms that the couple has been "spending more time together in the public eye."

In other words, it's definitely Kate and Owen sitting in a tree k-i-s-s-i-n-g.

Here are some sightings:

Anyway, in this week's Daily Blabber video blog, I take a look at some of Hollywood's biggest celebrity comebacks in recent history. Think: Kate Moss, Kiefer Sutherland, Mariah Carey, Teri Hatcher and more.

Travis Barker is having a nice laugh this morning. His soon-to-be ex, Shanna Moakler, was voted off on last night's Dancing with the Stars. Actually, scratch that. He's probably tonguing down Paris Hilton or making a porn with her or something.

I'll probably bore you to tears with all the We Are Marshall stuff that I'm going to post, but it's gonna be such a great movie -- and it's about my alma mater -- so I have to share. Have to!

Here's a new interview with Matthew McConaughey in which he talks about making the movie ("I never got more gratification from a job"), his buddies Lance and Jake, his MySpace imposter and more.

According to Us Weekly, two more sets of twins are in development.

Grey's Anatomy's Patrick Dempsey and his 40-year-old wife Jillian are expecting twin sons. Also, Desperate Housewives' Marcia Cross, 44, and her hubby Tom Mahoney will have “two babies, not one.”

The benefits package over at ABC must include fertility drugs, right?

Other celebrities expecting twins right now are Melissa Etheridge and Tammy Michaels (due: fall), Elvis Costello and Diana Krall (due: December) and Diddy and Kim Porter (due: next year).

Say it ain't so!

The Star -- by way of The Scoop's Jeannette Walls -- says that Whitney Houston may not have filed for a separation from Bobby Brown to end her marriage. She may have done it as a last ditch effort to save it.

Bobby has been getting serious -- well, as serious as Bobby would ever get -- with Karrine Steffans, who is some D-lister. Whitney reportedly begged Bobby to end things with the other woman, but Bobby told her that their marriage was over... for good. That's when Whit plotted to win him back, so she filed for separation as a last resort.

“Whitney has had an irrational commitment to Bobby that borders on obsessive,” a source “close to the couple” told the tabloid. “They are so intertwined and co-dependent that Whitney has convinced herself that she can’t survive without him.”

Meanwhile, the new Us -- on sale in NY and LA today -- says Whitney left Bobby after a "dramatic intervention" led by music man Clive Davis and Courtney Love, as well as ongoing rehab.

"Getting sober has given her the clarity to move on from him," one of Whit's friends tells Us. "After all these years, she cleaned up and got smart."

Now she's gearing up for a comeback. But do you think she's past her prime? Or would you buy her next album?

I'm leaning toward the has-been side...

Now that Clay Aiken has a new album to promote, he's on the Internet circuit. And let's be honest, after the whole motel sex scandal, the only thing people want to know about the American Idol star is whether or not he's gay.

Well, don't expect to get a definitive answer.

In the upcoming People, Clay agreed to an exclusive sit-down. But when asked if he's gay, this is all he gives:

What do you say [to that question]? … It's like when I was 8. I remember something would get broken in the house, and Mom and Dad would call me in and say, 'Did you do this?' Well, it didn't matter what I said. The only thing they would believe was yes. … People are going to believe what they want."

What do you believe? And do you think it's wrong people keep digging into Clay's personal life? Or do you think the public is entitled to the truth. Express your opinion below.

They lost weight, but found love… The Biggest Loser's Matt and Suzy got hitched Tuesday in Jamaica.

According to People.com, only close family members attended the beachside ceremony. Suzy's sister was maid of honor; Matt's brother was best man. The bride wore a white beach wedding dress by Renee Strauss and some diamonds. The groom wore… Ah, who cares.

And, yes, the dieters did have desert – cupcakes made by a friend.

The couple first hooked up on theBiggest Loser last year. In March, Matt proposed when they appeared on the Today Show.

Congrats! I think they're cute.

You don't have a party for the American Music Awards -- or set up an office pool to guess the winners. It's the show that you just happen upon... and if nothing else is on that night, you tune in.

Here are the nominations for the 2006 AMAs, which are based on record sales. The show will air on Tuesday, November 21 on ABC.

Check out photos from last year's American Music Awards or click on the "read more" link for the full list of nominees.

Madonna is always reinventing herself, so I hope she doesn't stick with this look for too long. It looks like she had a wig made out of straw. (Is this a Jessica Simpson special?) But her skin is all sparkly and shiny, so she wins points back for that.

When I told you that photos of Daniel Smith's final moments were up for sale, I had no idea that his mother, Anna Nicole Smith, was the one selling the pictures just days after his sudden death.

According to New York Daily News's Lloyd Grove, Anna Nicole has earned hundreds of thousands of dollars from the sale of the final pictures, which show Daniel with his baby sister hours before he died.

The photos -- which were sold through Anna Nicole's photo agent, Getty Images -- have earned more that $600,000. InTouch paid $400,000 for the print exclusive; Entertainment Tonight and The Insider shelled out $250,000.

"There is an incredible amount of emotion attached to this story and the photos, and our story will be a tribute to Daniel's life as a well as a celebration of it," a spokesperson for InTouch said.

Whatever. They just want to sell magazines.

So what is Anna Nicole going to do with her earnings? According to the paper, she's going to use some of the money for a memorial for her son. Getty Images will also make a commission.

How do you feel about Anna Nicole selling photos of her "beloved" son? Are you appalled she's making a profit so soon after he died? Glad she's making the money instead of some ambulance chaser? Disgusted by society in general? Talk back.

Yesterday, the Scotland newspaper Daily Record apologized to Nicole Kidman after publishing quotes in which she criticized Angelina Jolie's charity work.

"In an article published on Friday, September 8, we attributed comments to Nicole Kidman in relation to Angelina Jolie. We accept that Ms Kidman did not make those comments to us and we apologise to her for any upset caused," the paper said in a statement on Monday.

The paper – which still hasn't taken down the story, which is called "Nasty Nicole" -- quoted Nic as criticizing Angelina for getting excessive attention for her charity work as UN goodwill ambassador.

"It's not like Angelina is any better than a nurse working in a hospital but she's getting the publicity for her contribution," Nicole was said to have told the paper. "I have a friend who is a doctor and every year he works in Africa for two months for no money. So everyone is on the same playing field, whether you offer your services as the doctor or Angelina does."

After the retraction, Nicole's peeps released a statement saying Nicole has "tremendous admiration for Ms. Jolie and her tireless, worldwide charitable work."

Damn – I was hoping for a brawl on the red carpet at the Oscars -- with Brad Pitt and Keith Urban looking on. That show has gotten so dull.

I interrupt my regularly scheduled programming for a very important message... from Fergie.

During an interview with a gay paper based in NYC called Homo Xtra, she discussed her new song "Pedestal," which disses bloggers and "Internet haters."

“I just think, ‘Wow, I’ve worked so hard for this, but what are you doing other than sitting there behind your computers and talking s**t about people?’ If people don’t like me, fine, but don’t dis people if you’re not getting off your ass and doing something about your own life.”

Well, then. Ordinarily, I would be very offended by something like this… but it's coming from a woman who wets her pants onstage. I just don't feel the need to defend myself.

And the next celebrity who will be getting divorced is… Aaron Carter.

What's that you say? Nick Carter's little brother isn't even engaged? No, actually he is. That's right – 18-year-old Aaron Carter is engaged. You think that's ridiculous? It gets better. He's engaged to a Playboy Playmate. Even better than that? She used to date his brother. And they're getting married within in the next six months..

"I'm very excited about it," 22-year-old Kari Ann Peniche -- a former Miss Teen USA, who was stripped over her crown when she posed for Playboy -- tells People. "Aaron is the most genuine person I know. He's kind, loving, and I love him so much."

Aaron -- whose reality TV show House of Carters debuts on E! next month -- proposed to his brother's ex on Saturday in Las Vegas while they were onstage at the Palms Casino resort for the Playboy Comedy Tour.

"I don't remember it happening. It was such a blur," says Kari Ann about the surprise proposal. "I had no idea he was going to do this, but I'm glad he did."

I'm sure the marriage will be a blur as well as it will probably be very brief.

Young Aaron must be some stud muffin. If you remember, he is the one who started the whole feud between Hilary Duff and Lindsay Lohan. But I never would have predicted he'd be the first to the altar out of those three.

PS: Hope his acne clears up before the wedding.

Okay, so does this headline really surprise anyone:

Willie Nelson Cited for Drug Possession

Not me. But I loved the details of the article: He was on his tour bus with 1 1/2 lbs. of marijuana and 2/10 lb. of mushrooms. And the funny thing is -- it's probably not that much for the old-timer.

For the last 10 minutes I haven't been able to get that song "Magic Bus" by the Who out of my head. Magic Bus, Magic Bus, Magic Bus...

A short time ago, the forensic pathologist who did a second autopsy on Anna Nicole Smith's son, Daniel, said that the 20-year-old boy was on prescription anti-depression medication when he died at the hospital. He added that he didn't know whether or not the medication played any role in Daniel's death. The prescription medication he was taking was a very low dose.

He added that he's still awaiting toxicology tests and that there's no evidence that Daniel died from a "suicidal overdose."

Plus: Perez Hilton has the photos I told you that Getty Images was shopping around of Daniel with Anna and his new baby sister. So sad.

Does Lindsay Lohan have a permanent black cloud over her head? The girl is always being hospitalized, scolded by bosses, dissed by other celebrities (Firecrotch!), talked about by her jailed father, robbed...

The latest L-squared news is that she fractured her wrist.

According to Access Hollywood, Lindsay fell at a Fashion Week party at Milk Studios in NYC on Friday night and fractured her wrist in two places. Her rep confirmed the fall and added that there's a "pending investigation" into the accident because Milk Studios didn't properly prevent slips on the slick ground.

Her poor rep also said that Lindsay was supposed to go back to LA for meetings, but the accident may have affected her ability to work and attend some of the meetings.

Same old, same old.

Update: Lindsay actually went to the hospital twice over the weekend. In NY and in LA. Does she have a frequent patient card?

It's a domestic diva face-off!

According to Page Six, Martha Stewart's camp is so nervous about Rachel Ray's presence on the service show circuit that some staffers crossed over into enemy turf last week -- using fake names -- to watch Rachel's show being taped. But, embarrassingly, they were busted! Supposedly a security guard – who works for both Rachel and Martha (how random!) – exposed their little scam.

Here's the scoop from the Page Six snitch, who is clearly on Rachel's payroll: "They were kicked out because they lied about their names," sniffed the spy. "Otherwise they would have been welcome to stop by -- we have nothing to hide."

Here's what Rachel Ray's rep had to say: "We did have a group at a taping on Wednesday who misrepresented themselves and were turned away from being in the studio audience."

And, finally, Martha's spokesperson: "No one from Martha Stewart misrepresented themselves. In fact, a Rachel staffer who they knew well, greeted them warmly, even asked if she could get them better seats. For reasons unknown to us, they were asked to leave by one of Martha's former audience coordinators, not by a security guard -- and they did so."

Does Martha have anything to worry about? Which domestic diva do you turn to for advice in the kitchen? Take sides below.

Cyril Wecht – a forensic pathologist to the stars, if you will – performed an autopsy on Anna Nicole Smith's late son, Daniel, on Sunday. However, he could not yet determine what killed the Playboy Playmate's son.

Cyril, who was a consultant in the death of Elvis Presley and criticized the government's probe into JFK's assassination, ruled out several "natural causes," including heart disease or stroke. He also said that foul play did not seem to cause Daniel's death. But he has requested Daniel's medical records from the U.S. and ordered further tests, which could take weeks to complete.

“I don’t find anything that would cause me to believe there is something in terms of some traumatic injury that was inflicted, or somebody having done something to him in some cryptic manner that could not be observed,” Wecht told reporters outside the morgue where he performed the procedure.

Outside the hospital, Anna Nicole's lawyer told reporters that she "is doing well, she is getting better." Poor thing -- I genuinely feel so sorry for all that she's going through.

Over the weekend, my friends were all abuzz over this sad story. A few seemed to think that maybe downers were involved in Daniel's tragic death. Perhaps Anna, Daniel and Howard, who were up really early that morning tending to the baby, took sleeping pills so they could get a restful morning nap. I thought that was an interesting theory. With Anna's massive weight gain and loss I'm sure uppers and downers were "normal" in their household.

What do you and your friends think? Did you guys discuss it? Share your thoughts below.

I love how Alec Baldwin lets it all hang out during interviews. I wish all actors were as candid, but I don't think they can be until they're established and not worried that their words will crush their careers. Anyway, Page Six has the scoop on Alec's interview in the October GQ in which he talks about Kim Basinger, Tom Cruise and "horndog" Charlie Sheen…

On Kim Basinger, who he has been battling looong after their 2002 divorce: "My ex-wife once said, 'He's Saddam Hussein.' She said that. And I thought, 'Do I hide myself in cramped underground quarters? Do I like to shoot firearms in a celebratory way? Did I execute whole villages of people and bulldoze their bodies into a pit? What are you saying? Explain this to me.' "

On how Kim's law firm also represented Denise Richards in her divorce from Charlie Sheen, who was accused of liking teen porn: "Charlie Sheen may be one of the great horndogs of his generation, but he is not a pedophile."

On Tom Cruise: "I think what's been done to Tom is kind of silly. I don't really understand Tom's religious beliefs; nor do I want to. All I know is I don't see people who are disciples of Tom's faith driving planes into the World Trade Center. When Scientologists start crashing planes into the Pentagon, then I think we should sit Tom down and have a grand jury talk to him. In the meantime, let's just leave him alone."

Alec -- who recently got back together with his ex Nicole Seidel -- is starring in Tina Fey's new show 30 Rock, which premieres October 11.

Now starring in The Replacements.... Tara Reid!

A couple years back, the D-lister tried to salvage the remaining morsels of her career by getting massive breast implants. I don't know whose attention she was trying to gain... maybe Hef's? But her ridiculously oversized knockers just made her look like a porn star and took away her remaining bits of credibility.

Well, she must have just gotten the "you're a has-been memo" because on September 7, she reportedly underwent surgery to, um, downsize. Apparently she went to a Beverly Hills clinic, where her implants were replaced with smaller ones. And while she was under the knife, she also had marks on her stomach removed, which were caused by a previous botched liposuction job.

While I don’t think that she’ll suddenly win an Oscar winner or become an A-lister now that her DDDDs have been downsized, at least now I won’t vomit in my mouth when I see her pouring out of a bikini. Speaking of... Maybe she’ll also stop slipping nips in public for attention as well. But now that she has new knockers to show off, I doubt it.

According to People.com, Britney Spears and Kevin Federline have named their kid Sutton Pierce. That means this baby has the same initials as his big brother, Sean Preston, and their birthdays are just two days apart.

At first I was thinking kinda cheesy, but my best friend when I was kid was named Alice, and all her sisters had "A" names. It was actually kinda cool each time her mom had a baby -- it was like: Is it April? Alexandra? Ashley?

For the record, they went with Alice, Amy, Anne and Aileen.

Getty Images is shopping around photos of Anna Nicole Smith, her son Daniel and her new daughter taken shortly before Daniel's mysterious death.

The photo agency sent an email around to all the celebrity rags saying that they have 17 photos of Anna Nicole, Daniel and the new baby taken in the hospital the day before he died. The preview images reportedly show Anna Nicole and Daniel in the hospital bed with the baby in his arms; Daniel holding the photos; and Anna Nicole, Daniel, the baby and her sidekick Howard K. Stern.

The asking price for the photos? $200,000!

Which magazine do you think will pony up the cash? People? Us? In Trash Weekly? And do you want to see them or do you think it's in poor taste? Talk back.

The soon-to-be-divorced Bobby Brown has a new girlfriend. Well, not new exactly -- they've been actually together for the last four months. I could tell you all about her -- who she is, what she does, which celebs she's slept with, etc -- but there's really only one thing you need to know about that chick: Bobbie is going to ruin her life too.

"I can't break up a 16-year marriage in a few months. I'm not that super." --Bobby's new chick

I don't know this guy's appeal... though I do know someone who used to, umm, have something in common with him back when he was in New Edition. The ladies love him. To me, he seems pretty ick. But I guess it's your prerogative whether you're into him or not.

Check out these new photos of Brangelina, BFFs Kate Moss and Winona, a boozy Bono and Fergie (eek!) in Star Snapshots: Your Daily Dose of Celebrity Eye Candy.

Kevin Federline's new album drops on October 31. If you are tempted to buy this Vanilla Ice sequel, we may have to end our relationship. Seriously. He is so bad. And I'm not saying this just because he's Britney's freeloadin' husband. I've actually suffered through two TV performances and listened to "Poo-Poo-Zao."

So please don't hurt my feelings any buy this drivel.

Everybody wants to know what really goes on behind the guarded gates of the Brangelina household, but maybe none as much as Nelson Mercado.

The Los Angeles man, who has been a bodyguard and security consult for other celebrities, was arrested yesterday on charges of impersonating a federal agent to land a job providing security for Hollywood's most famous couple.

Here's the deal: He tried to get a job with Sunset Protective Services and Investigations – which provides round-the-clock security for Brangelina and their brood – and was specifically seeking the couple's contract. To get the job, he falsely claimed to work for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. But it didn't end with a little lie on his resume. This guy actually carried a fake Homeland Security badge and drove a "cop car," a Ford Crown Victoria with tinted windows and police lights, which was registered to the "U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security of America."

The weirdo will be facing a judge today and could spend up to three years in jail.

Meanwhile, there are new photos of Angelina, Brad and their kiddies in a foreign magazine called Gala. You can view them on PerezHilton.com. Those kids are gorgeous. And, yes, Shiloh's lips are still big and puffy… just like her mommy's. Don't miss it.

My friend Amy was at a Mets game at Shea Stadium the other night and who did she see on her way out of the can? Kevin James from King of Queens. "He was so nice," the school teacher reports. "I got a pic with him on my cell. I was so excited. I told him that I loved him twice." How cute.

Anna Nicole Smith is "supporting a probe" (doesn't that sound dirty?) into the death of her son, Daniel. Also, the head coroner has authorized Anna Nicole to bring her own pathologist to perform a second autopsy on her son. No word on whether or not she wants to have another one performed. And the toxicology reports are supposed to come back today from the first autopsy, but they won't be made public as they're part of an ongoing investigation.

Meanwhile, remember Bobby Trendy? He was the diva designer Anna Nicole hired during her reality series to redo her bedroom. Anna ended up hating his work and their feud has played out in the media ever since. Bobby Trendy loves to talk about Anna any chance he gets. So of course now that her son died, he's trying to get press attention. Check out: Exclusive: Bobby Trendy, Anna Nicole Smith's Ex-Decorator, Talks To Star About Her Tragedy.

Despite Peter Cook's public pleas to reconcile with Christie Brinkley, the former supermodel has banished him to the schoolyard, where he can mess around with as many young girls as he wants.

Christie has filed for divorce from her fourth husband. In July, cheater Peter publicly humiliated his stunning wife when it was exposed he was sleeping with an 18-year-old. He met the teen at a toy store and gave her a job at his architect firm. Talk about moving up the ladder.

Anyway, now Christie is on her way to be free and clear of that louse... and find herself husband number five.

Like Michael Jordan, Babs Streisand and Cher, Jay-Z has announced that he's coming out of retirement... at the ripe old age of 36.

After announcing that his 2003 Black Album would be his last, the rap mogul tells Entertainment Weekly that he's releasing a new album this fall called Kingdom Come .

Kingdom Come, huh? Does that mean after this album thy will be done? Somehow I doubt it.

"It was the worst retirement in history," Beyonce's boyfriend told the mag.

That's true. But it sounds like it's worth it because he collaborated with some of the biggest names in the biz for this album, which will likely hit number one out of the gate. And let me name drop if I may -- Timbaland, Kanye West, Dr. Dre and even Coldplay's Chris Martin (Mr. Gwyneth Paltrow to you) all worked on it.

Does it annoy you when stars make a big deal about their retirement, just to make a comeback a few years later? Don't care? Tired of me asking you questions all the time? Vent below.

Plus: Lindsey wrote a must-read slide show called Britney Spears's Most Outrageous Moments. If my video doesn't make you laugh, Lindsey's definitely will.

Here's the card I imagine Britney would give little Sean P...

A very special thanks to my Britney-obsessed designer, Kim.

Ever wonder things like… Whether or not Steve Carell continued to wax his chest after the whole 40-Year-Old Virgin thing? If it hurt Megan Mullally's vocal cords doing that crazy Karen voice all those years on Will & Grace? Or how about who trims Jason Lee's porn star moustache?

In iVillage's new feature Ask the Stars, you have the opportunity to ask celebrities anything you want. And if your question is picked, the editors will take your inquiry straight to that star and get you an answer – on video no less.

What service!

So think up some good questions – mine were are kinda lame and apparently I'm semi-obsessed with body hair – and submit them to Ask the Stars today.

The death of Anna Nicole Smith's son is getting very suspicious. In fact, it's being labeled just that.

Earlier today, the death of Daniel Smith was termed "suspicious" by the coroner's office, and a formal inquiry that could lead to criminal charges has been scheduled.

Now here's where it gets shady. Authorities are saying that at least one other person was in the hospital room when the 20-year-old died. The person was not a member of the hospital staff. The police are refusing to name this person as not to "jeopardize the investigation."

The coroner added that authorities know what killed Daniel, but were awaiting a toxicology report to confirm the findings. She again reiterated that there was no sign of physical injury to him. Additionally, no drug paraphernalia or traces of drugs were found on him, in the hospital room or near the room.

"I can confirm that there was definitely a third person in the room at the time of death and I do know who that person is," the coroner said. "But I am unwilling to reveal that information at this time for various reasons."

This whole thing is very mysterious.

Update: Here is her lawyer's statement. Although the coroner and authorities won't reveal the identity of the mysterious third person, the lawyer says it was Anna Nicole's sidekick Howard. K. Stern. But the suspicion continues.

People magazine kisses some Aniston -- um -- behind -- this week, naming Vince Vaughn's girlfriend the best dressed of 2006.

Sidebar discussion: How can People magazine decide the best and worst in September? There are 3 1/2 months to go! Jennifer Aniston could start wearing Fergie's outfits or become BFFs with Mariah Carey and raid her wardrobe. Things could go haywire!

Here are the top three on the list:
1) Jennifer Aniston
2) Halle Berry
3) Jessica Alba

As for the dudes, they weren't ranked. Rather they were given adjectives like trendiest” (Justin Timberlake) or “best monochromatic” look (George Clooney).

Clooney, I get. I'd give him an award for stepping out of bed in the morning. But Timberlake? The kid who invented the denim suit? I so beg to differ.

Just a quick update because some of you are asking... Britney has not announced a name for the kid yet. Believe me, I'm on the edge of my seat here.

In Touch Weekly, one of the worst tabloids out there for just making stuff up, is starting rumors that Britney was rushed to the hospital and delivered early because she had pre-eclampsia — a pregnancy-related condition marked by high-blood pressure. That's the only place where I read that nonsense. The girl is probably at home, laying on her luxury 1000-thread count sheets having her mom -- and maybe, if she's lucky, Kevin -- wait on her hand and foot.

That's what I'd be doing.

Patrick Dempsey -- aka Dr. McDreamy -- cheated on me!

Yes, it's true. He cheated... with his wife. Now they're having another baby. My heart is broken.

But seriously...

Patrick is expecting another McBaby with his McWife, Jillian Dempsey.

"Me and my wife, Jillian, are very excited to expand our family," the Grey's Anatomy star told Gatecrasher.

They already have a daughter, Tallulah.

Whitney Houston won't always love Bobby Brown. In fact, I think she hates him. They're getting divorced.

"She has filed for divorce from Bobby Brown," Whitney's rep, Nancy Seltzer, told People about the buzzworthy couple who have kept the tabloids busy since they got hitch in 1992.

Actually, Whitney filed paperwork for a legal separation last Friday in California. The divorce proceedings will being next month.

"We're saying she filed for divorce because that is [Whitney's] intent," her spokeswoman clarified.

Meow!

Whoever didn't see this coming needs to hang it up and start reading Newsweek or something. There's just no hope for ya. After all, Bobby and Whitney have been plagued by rumors of trouble since the early '90s. I'm talking drugs, cheating, domestic violence, more drugs, more cheating... You get the point.

Earlier this year, they issued more denials that their marriage was in trouble despite the fact that Bobby overheard telling women he was single again. One woman even claimed to be his new girlfriend. It's been a bit of a joke really.

And as Lindsey noted, add this to the list of cursed reality TV star couples. Last year Bobby had a show on Bravo called Being Bobby Brown in which Whitney appeared and they did and talked about really dirty things. (Let's just say they discussed his method for helping her relieve constipation. And it had nothing to do with Metamucil.) So add them to Nick & Jessica, Carmen & Dave and Travis & Shanna.

According to the new Us, the wedding of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes is going to take place any day now. Here's some of their evidence:

"All I know is that the wedding is really soon! They will surprise all of us."
-- Katie's friend Andrea Bernholtz, president of Rock & Republic

"It's definitely going to happen in the next few three to six weeks."
-- A source close to the couple

"They always said they will be married by early fall, and they are still in that window. They can't wait."
their rep

"Yes!"
-- Katie to a photog who asked if her wedding was coming up

Other details: Katie's mom, Kathleen, is helping plan the event, which is most likely to take place in LA. It will not happen in Colorado because that's where he married Nicole Kidman. The dress? Giorgio Armani is her favorite designer, so expect one of his originals.

Could Gwen Stefani and her bouncing baby boy, King, be any cuter? Click on the photo for a larger view in Star Snaps: Your Daily Dose of Celebrity Eye Candy, to make a comment or caption the picture.

Travis and Paris sitting in a tree… K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

Whip out your scorecard, Paris Hilton is now hooking up with Travis Barker, who split from Dancing with the Stars's Shanna Moakler like a month ago.

Needless to say, the estranged wife is not happy that Paris is sucking face with her man.

So what's the deal with Paris and Travis? They were at Butter in NYC on Monday – a party hosted by Kanye West – and they started getting cozy.

My favorite part of the article was the comment from Paris's bitch publicist, Eliot Mintz. He said: "Paris is single right now. You may in the future see her in the company of other men."

Ya think?

Any Adrian Grenier fans in the house?

I read this great article about the new movie that he's screening at the Toronto Film Festival called Shot In Dark. It's a documentary about his search to find his father, who he had not seen in 18 years and who he knew little about.

I always knew that the Entourage star was hot, but didn't know he was quite so interesting.

Us Weekly is jumping on the
Britney gave birth bandwagon.

In their blog, they report that the poptart gave birth to a baby boy at the celebrity hospital of choice,
Cedars-Sinai.

Pop star Britney Spears, 24, gave birth to a baby boy at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on September 12, a family source confirms to Us Weekly. This is her second child with husband Kevin Federline, joining older brother, Sean Preston, who turns 1-year-old on September 14. Federline also has two children with his ex, Shar Jackson, a daughter, Kori, 4, and a son, Kaleb, 2. Spears and Federline, 28, celebrate their second wedding anniversary on September 18.

When Access Hollywood Executive Producer Rob Silverstein congratulated Mr. Spears, he said, "Thank you!, we appreciate your concern. Everything is great."

And finally, People is also reporting the news. I've been waiting for them all day. They're sticking with the story that it's a boy and it was born at 2am. (That's the original story that National Enquirer broke this morning.) No other new details except that the family insider who confirmed the news said that Kevin "had a smile on his face."

Well, that's a helluva lot better than a frown.

My friend Alex just bumped into Seal and his son, Henry Gunther Ademola Dashtu Samuel (got that?), at FAO Schwarz, which reminds me that I have a few more sightings to share with you guys.

My co-worker Diane (pictured), who works on Pregnancy and Parenting, met Project Runway's Tim Gunn at a museum gallery opening over the weekend. "He was so nice," she reports. I have to agree -- after seeing him two or three times in L.A., he was on my flight back home to New York, so I had to him and tell him how I felt like I had been "stalking" him all weekend. We chatted for a bit about lots of things -- like how beautiful Heidi Klum is (damn her!) and how much he's enjoying his newfound fame. He actually writes a really popular blog for Bravo each week -- he was writing an entry at the airport when I interrupted him -- and does a podcast, so check that out.

Update: According to reports, Anna Nicole's son did not die of natural causes. "The cause of death is not natural," Her Majesty's Coroner Linda P. Virgill tells People.com. "However, we wish to reserve the cause of death at this time pending the toxicologist examination and report for confirmation of cause of death. Friday is the likely release date for the autopsy and toxicology report."

More on the depressing death of Anna Nicole Smith's son...

As I told you yesterday, three days after giving birth to a baby girl, Anna Nicole's 20-year-old son, Daniel, died unexpectedly. There are more details at this time, courtesy of the New York Daily News:

However, this police spokesman's account differs from a statement issued by a rep for TrimSpa, which is the diet pill Anna Nicole has been endorsing since she dropped all that weight. They indicated that Daniel had been found "not breathing, in bed" and visited his mom and new baby sister the night before he died.

Here's a clip from Matt Lauer's interview with Tyra Banks on the Today Show this morning. She was promoting the second season of her show -- The Tyra Banks Show -- and it really looks like she's stepping it up Oprah style this season. There's this whole segment in which she pretends to be a 14-year-old to lure sex predators on the Internet. (One guy sends her dirty pictures! If only he knew that a former supermodel was on the receiving end.) But don't worry -- there's fun, fluffy stuff too. Tyra went undercover with Nicole Richie and secretly videotaped the paparazzi that follow Nicole on a daily basis. Who knew that Nicole attracted as much 'razzi as Britney Spears or TomKat? There were tons of photogs chasing her down the street, knocking stuff over, to get a shot of her. It's not like it was baby Suri! Anyway, it's an interesting watch because you really get to see what goes into getting a photograph.

The National Enquirer is reporting that Britney Spears Fetusline's second child has arrived. They say the baby boy was born via c-section this morning at 2am.

They are the only outlet reporting the news right now. Other people are saying that she was still preggers as of 9am.

The 2am thing seems hokey to me as she's having a scheduled c-section. Though they doctors may have made her come in at a weird time to avoid the paparazzi.

Stay tuned.

Janet Jackson is really sticking to her story that she lost 60lbs. in 4 months without plastic surgery – and she's lashing out against peeps who say she went under the knife.

"I could not believe how big I was, how heavy I really was," she tells Extra in an interview that airs tonight. "I would see myself in the mirror, but I wouldn't look too often. I didn't want to get used to that image."

Janet insists that she lost the weight through healthy eating and rigorous workouts – not surgery… which I'm totally convinced she had.

"It does drive me crazy," she says, "because I've worked real hard … and I think it's really easy for [the tabloids] to write it off as [surgery]. It isn't hurtful – it just pisses me off. … I want to kick some ass."

But Janet isn't saying she's never had surgery. In fact, she talks about her schnoz job.

"It's no secret. When I was 16 I changed my nose. Would I do it again? I don't know… I've seen a lot of women that have been pulled and snatched, and it's not too cute."

Is she talking about her sister, LaToya? Or maybe she considers her brother Michael a woman. Lord knows he's been poked, prodded, pricked and plucked more than anyone I've ever seen.

Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria – who was lucky to land on that show with only soap opera experience – says that when her ABC series ends, so will her TV career.

Promise?

"I would never leave Desperate Housewives'" Longoria told The Associated Press. "I love doing both (TV and film), but I would never do another TV show after Desperate Housewives. No."

It seems like Diva Eva is positioning herself to launch a movie career. Let's hope her next role is more memorable than her mainstream movie debut opposite Kiefer Sutherland and Michael Douglas in The Sentinel, which put me to sleep on my last plane ride. Her next movie is called How I Met My Boyfriend's Dead Fiancee."

Sounds like an Academy Award shoo-in, doesn't it?

You know your starring is falling when... you lose a magazine cover to Bobby Brown.

Yikes -- Christina Aguilera's camp are some unhappy campers this morning. Apparently the songstress was promised the cover of Vibe -- which she happily gave an interview to and posed for some sexy new photos -- but at the eleventh hour, she was replaced... by Bobby Brown.

See, there's a new lesson. If you're talented and in a committed relationship, you're boring. If you like the pipe and run around on your wife, you're cover material. Sad.

I have something new to add to my very short "Things I Know about Fergie" list: The multitalented performer used to love the Crystal Meth. (Do I smell an Oprah appearance in the works? Pass Fergie the Kleenex.) That juicy tidbit will now occupy position three on my list of Fergie factoids.

Things I Know About Fergie
by Suzy Byrne

1. She dates the very yummy Josh Duhamel. Holy odd couple.

2. She wet her pants onstage once and it was all over the net.

3. She used to use the meth because it was hard coping with being a child star.

Wow -- I think I now know everything I need to know about her. No more, please!

Anna Nicole: Son Dies, Daughter Is Born

Apparently, Anna Nicole Smith gave birth to a baby girl in the Bahamas Thursday. Three days later -- on Sunday -- her 20-year-old son, Daniel, who was always on her reality show died!

Here's a statement on Anna Nicole's official site:

"On Sept. 7 Anna Nicole gave birth to a healthy 6 lb., 9 oz. baby girl. Her son Daniel was in the Bahamas with her to share in the joy of his baby sister when he passed away suddenly on the morning of Sept. 10. We have yet to learn the cause of death but do not believe that drugs or alcohol were a factor. Anna Nicole is absolutely devastated by the loss of her son. He was her pride and joy and an amazing human being. Please do not make any press inquiries at this time so that Anna Nicole can grieve in peace."

Sorry to be such a buzzkill so early in the morning. But the news depressed me too, so we're in good company.

Perhaps the most disturbing story I read over the weekend had this headline:

David Gest: Liza Minnelli 'had herpes'

Apparently, David wants to get his prenup tossed because he says Liza contracted herpes -- prior to them getting married -- and she never told him.

First, are these two wackos still married? They split up in 2003. They need new divorce lawyers.

Second, I don't know whether or not Liza Minnelli has the herps. I don't want to know whether or not Liza Minnelli has the herps. There's something seriously wrong with the fact that I'm even discussing Liza Minnelli and the herps.

Some things just should not be made public... and that, friends, is one of them.

I stayed up really late last night trying to work out some kinks in iVillage's coolest new photo blog -- which is not to be confused with iVillage's coolest new text blog, TV Cocktail: A mix of show talk with a splash of attitude -- called Star Snapshots: Your daily dose of celebrity eye candy.

Jeez we've been here at iVil.

Back to Star Snapshots… Each day, you'll find new celebrity photos of your faves. Then you can post comments about them... like I know you like to do. Naughty, nice – that's your call.

Star Snapshots is debuting with a section called Star Kiddies @ School, which is a series of photos of celebrities taking their cute little ones to (or from) school. Here's a teaser...

Anyway, check it, double deck it… I hope you enjoy it!

How do I know? I saw her Friday night at the Sunshine Cinema in NYC after a screening of her new movie, Sherrybaby, in which she plays a troubled drug addict trying to gain control of her life (and her young daughter) after getting released from prison.

After the film -- which is already generating Oscar buzz for Maggie as best actress -- Jake's big sister waddled up to the front of the theater for a Q&A. She looked fantastic. In most photos that I've seen of her lately, she looks ready to pop. But in person, she's a lot smaller. She's tall, so all of her baby weight has landed right in her belly. (Lucky @#$%$!) And the entire time she talked, she rubbed her stomach, which was rather cute.

Here's a photo of her -- with her fiance/baby daddy Peter Sarsgaard -- the following day. She's wearing the same sweater/shrug that she wore the night before, so that makes me like her even more.

Anyway, she has a few more weeks to go. So xxpect an October baby. And see Sherrybaby if it plays near you. It was really a first-rate flick.

So Maria Sharapova won the U.S. Open... I'd definitely celebrate more if I didn't think she had a h-u-g-e head. Have you seen her new Nike ad set to the song "I Feel Pretty"? She coldly moves through the ad while everyone sings about her amazing beauty... then she shows that she's athletic too by smashing a ball across the court.

A little modesty never hurt anyone.

Brad Pitt has stolen Charlize Theron's line.

In the new Esquire, he says that he'll marry Angelina Jolie... when restrictions on who can marry whom are dropped.

"Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able, Brad says in the article, which comes out September 19.

Charlize famously made this declaration last year. Brad must not have gotten the press release.

I think I could read Jessica Simpson quotes all day long. She's just so intelligent, worldly, sympathetic and inspiring. Whatever. You know that I read them to laugh at her -- just like you do! Last night she was on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and the folks at Us were kind enough to transcribe some of her gems:

On not dating John Mayer: "John [Mayer]! What a good guy! He's 28 and a legend. He's a very great guy -- just friends. He's a great guy…Trust me, if I went on a date you would know. The entire world would know. I can't go anywhere."
Um... We did know. You went on a date, then you got dumped. You gotta come up with something better than that!

On Dane Cook: “Dane is great. Dane is so great…No dating -- he is the costar in my new movie Employee of the Month! I'm lonely."
I'm lonely? Oh jeez. Spare us from your tales of woe. Pay someone to keep you entertained.

On Jude Law: "I have not dated him. I heard that rumor. I saw somewhere at the Chateau or something and me seeing him meant I was automatically in bed with him!"
Puh-leez -- you slept with him. You guys were so loud that someone called security. And you know what? I don't blame you. Despite the nanny debacle, I wouldn't kick him out of bed.

On Restalyne: "I did Restalyne- I was going though an emotional time and I thought maybe if my lips were bigger people would think it was sexy. It only stays for four months. I looked like a blowfish! I looked so goofy! I prayed every night, 'Please let them go down!' But where does it go? I know I have the butt chin. I wonder if it made my butt chin bigger? Where did it go?"…It's gone now- these are my lips! I have good lips. I don't know why I did it. I was going through a hard time- I was going through a divorce!"
That's right -- blame Nick for getting your lips plumped. ANd I love how she says she "did Restalyne." That's how people talk about drugs. "I did X."

On getting a boob job in the future: "I have boobs you know. The only thing I would do is after I had kids and the boobs are down to my bellybutton, I might do something to put them back up! But I like the way I look."
Maybe your dad can help "put them back up." I'm sure he'd enjoy it.

On diet soda: "I don't know about diet sodas. I think it gives you cellulite. It clogs those pores- it gives you the holes we all hate."
She's been pretending to read too many beauty magazines.

On where she is now: "The place that I'm in right now, I'm just a girl trying to be a woman trying to have a good time trying to have a life."
Huh?

Are things between Matthew McConaughey and Penelope Cruz getting caliente again? Maybe. The couple -- who split in the spring after dating for a years, were spotted dining together at the Beverly Hills restaurant Madeo on Wednesday.

They are both known for maintaining relationships with their exes (she's saw Suri Cruise when she was born; Matthew gets raves from exes Sandra Bullock and Ashley Judd), so it could be nothing... or it could be yet another rekindled romance.

Would you like to see them reunite? Express yourself.

Lindsay Lohan's flight to Heathrow Airport yesterday wasn't exactly a "flying the friendly skies" experience. She was like totally robbed.

Us reports that Lindsay's Birkin bag -- which contained over $1 million worth of jewelry, her passport, cash and a cashmere sweater (as if the sweater matters after you hear the price tag on the gems!) -- was stolen at the London airport yesterday. While exiting the building, she realized that her orange Hermes bag, which alone is valued at around $5,000, was missing from her luggage pushcart.

After a public plea for the return of the bag -- via her spokesperson (natch!) -- People.com just reported that the bag was found on airport property. No word on whether or not the contents of the bag were intact.

I feel really bad for Lindsay. That sucks. But if you were carrying around a bag with loot worth over a $1 million buckaroos, wouldn't you like attach it to your belt loop with one of those chains? When I'm out and about, I'm all about my stuff... and my valuables (like my beloved iPod) are a very, very, very small fraction of that.

I bet Lindsay's poor assistant got a major chewing out… whether or not it was even her fault.

Update: Nothing was stolen from her bag

My love affair with David Letterman is going to continue for at least four more years.

He's renewed his contract with CBS.

Can't you totally hear me chanting: Four more years! Four more years! It's like a political convention in my head right now.

I'll definitely be sleeping better tonight.

Uma Thurman? Yep, that's today's hot rumor... despite the fact that she was just photographed last week looking lovey-dovey with her on-again hotelier boyfriend Andre Balasz.

So where is this even coming from? Well, the newly single Orlando dropped by the set of Uma's new Honda commercial in NYC. The paparazzi didn't catch them snuggling, but TMZ.com hears that they are hooking up.

I can just hear David Letterman's monologue tonight: "Uma... Orlando. Orlando... Uma."

What do you think of Umlando as a couple? Mismatched? The perfect match? Talk about the most strangely named "new couple" in Hollywood below.

Forget Jon Stewart! Billy who? A chick is in charge at next year's Academy Awards and her name is Ellen DeGeneres.

Funny gal Ellen, who will do anything for a laugh on her daily talk show, has been tapped to host the 2007 Oscars next February. This is the first time she will be emceeing the live show but she has experience having hosted the Emmys in 2001.

Here's what El said in a statement after getting the good news:

"When [Oscars producer] Laura Ziskin called, I was thrilled. There's two things I've always wanted to do in my life. One is to host the Oscars. The second is to get a call from Laura Ziskin. You can imagine that day's diary entry."

Laura returned the compliment in her own press release:

"Ellen DeGeneres was born to host the Academy Awards," the producer said. "There is no more challenging hosting job in show business. It requires someone who can keep the show alive and fresh and moving, as well as someone who is a flat-out great entertainer. Ellen completely fits the bill."

The 79th annual Academy Awards air live from the Kodak Theater in Hollywood on ABC Feb. 25, 2007.

Paris Hilton getting arrested is way amusing to me. Yesterday I sat at my desk watching video footage of her sister picking her up at the station and Paris being driven home by her poor publicist. Then there was her whole post-arrest interview with Ryan Seacrest. I just kept laughing... to the annoyance of those around me.

If she didn't have such a "I can get away with murder because I'm rich and everyone loves me" attitude, I think I'd feel a little bad for her. According to reports she had just one drink and while that's no excuse for driving drunk, I think there are a lot of people out there who have walked in her stilettos.

Anyway, I love that she got arrested. I love that her sister had to go pick her up at the po-po station. I love that Entourage's Kevin Connolly went too (he dates Nicky) and I can just imagine what he was thinking (something like: Oh, jeez. More Paris drama. I'm lucky I landed the sane Hilton sister.) I love that her publicist – who was John Lennon's publicist back in the day – had to make excuses for the diva and acted like she was remorseful.

As if!

Because I'm so amused, I think you will be too, so I'm passing along great Paris arrest links. And please, by all means, feel free to make fun of Paris below. Your responses to my post about her arrest yesterday where hilarious – especially Six's and Selda's.

Cracked. Me. Up.

Us is reporting that Britney may be scheduled for a C-section today. Somewhere else I read that she scheduled it for September 14 -- Sean Preston's birthday. Which means? We're officially on Britney baby watch.

More to come.

With students young and old heading back to school, I thought it was a great time to dig up some funny celebrity yearbook photos for my latest edition of the Daily Blabber video blog. So check out stars like Brad Pitt (pictured), Jessica Simpson, Jerry Seinfeld, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Eva Longoria and more looking less than A list. Oh, any don't let me forget the newly arrested Paris Hilton -- I have a photo of her when she was still a little angel.

WATCH IT NOW

Paris Hilton's life in the fast lane took an abrupt detour earlier today when she was arrested for suspicion of drunk driving.

The time? 1:20am. The scene? Hollywood, California. The set up? Paris was seen driving erratically, so she was pulled over by the po-po.

"She was arrested so, yes, she failed the sobriety test," said a police spokesperson.

Paris's underpaid spokesperson -- who routinely lies for her about sex tapes, broken engagements, alleged racial slurs and a slew of other stuff -- told the AP that Paris spent the whole day shooting a music video and was on the way from a charity event (natch!) when she was pulled over in her Benz. He said she's most likely drank one margarita and failing the sobriety test was "probably the result of an empty stomach and working all day and being fatigued."

"She's absolutely fine," her repsaid. "She didn't appear in the least bit to be intoxicated."

Paris was picked up at the police station by her sister Nicky and Nicky's boyfriend, Entourage star Kevin Connolly.

Blab back: If Paris gets community service for her DUI, what should the judge sentence her do? Post suggestions -- with mine -- below.

Although David Spade and Heather Locklear have yet to confirm that they're anything other than friends, People and Us are both reporting that they've broken up.

Here's what a "source close to the couple" told People:

"Heather is still going through a lot with Denise [Richards] and (estranged husband) Richie [Sambora]. It's just too soon for her to get serious. They're still friends. It's not ugly."

This unusual couple (Beauty and the Geek?) was first spotted snogging back in March at an afterparty for David's series Showbiz Show. At the time it was just a month after Heather's split from Richie, so she was keeping things with David on the down low and refused to confirm they were hooking up. But all summer Heather and David have been seen together – kissing, cuddling and hanging out with her daughter, Ava.

Whatever the heck was going on, it's over. I have a feeling her next boyfriend will be more her type: a rock star like Richie or her first husband Tommy Lee.

I'm thinking Dave Navarro. What about you?

Just two months after getting hitched, the flame-haired star of Desperate Housewives has announced that she's expecting her first child with husband Tom Mahoney. Baby Mahoney will make his or her debut in April.

So down to important things here… like naming this child. For a girl, I'm thinking Scarlett as a nod to Marcia's trademark locks. Or maybe Bree for the character who brought her fame (and fortune). For a boy, well why not Tom Jr.? Classic, understated – sorta like this couple?

What do you think they should name the little bambino? Post your suggestions below.

Apparently the folks on the cast of Lost haven't been sending their checks to the PBA.

The latest in a long line of Lost cast members to have a run in with the police is Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, who plays Mr. Eko. He was arrested in Hawaii on Saturday disobeying a police officer and driving without a license. After spending six hours in the slammer, he posted $500 bail and was released.

Adewale joins numerous coworkers who have been cited for traffic violations while shooting the hit series on the island. In December, former stars Michelle Rodriguez and Cynthia Watros were both busted for drunk driving... on the same night. Six others have been ticketed, but not arrested: Josh Holloway (speeding ticket), Dominic Monaghan (speeding and driving without a license), Naveen Andrews (speeding), Ian Somerhalder (speeding) and Harold Perrineau Jr. (no motor vehicle insurance during a safety check).

I think the producers need to send the whole lot of them to driver's ed.

Talk about biting the hand that feeds you! The O.C. star Rachel Bilson bashed her own show in a recent interview with Teen Vogue.

"I just feel like the show is over. I'm so happy for everything that it's brought me...but I think we're all ready to move on."

Somebody is starting to sound like Mischa "I'm Ungrateful" and My Boyfriend's Grody" Barton.

Poor, poor Jess.

Anyway, what do you think was happening to Jessica while this photo was being taken to make her eyeballs pop out of their sockets like that? Post your suggestions -- naughty and nice -- below with mine.

I get a lot of comments from you guys asking for more posts about TV shows -- especially after the recaps that I ran for Grey's Anatomy and Jules's uberpopular American Idol recap. It seems like you guys really like a morning after place to discuss the most buzzworthy TV shows. Well, now you'll have a new online "water cooler."

I'm happy to introduce... TV Cocktail, which is a mix of show talk with a big splash of attitude.

This TV watching blog is being helmed by a great friend of mine, Sarah Mac, who is a really talented, funny TV writer. (Among her credits? That '70s Show.) But in addition to Sarah Mac's TV tidbits, news and gossip, we have some recappers who provide sassy summaries of shows like Prison Break (written by my Blabber backup Lindsey), Laguna Beach, Nip/Tuck, Lost and more. I'll be writing Grey's Anatomy and The Bachelor, so you'll get even more of me... if you can stand it!

Anyway, please check it out and see what you think. If you have suggestions, feel free to share them with your TV Cocktail "bartender" Sarah Mac right here. This includes which show recaps you would read, which TV stars you'd like to read about and all that good stuff.

I hope you love it as much as I do.

This year on my summer vacation... I got some Botox. Got some Botox. Got some Botox. Oh, and I got some Botox.

Gotta love being paid $15 million a year! I know my plastic surgeon does.

Yesterday when Jessica Simpson was on The View, she told Rosie O'Donnell that she's "not dating" John Mayer. I thought she was lying, but she wasn't -- Page Six reports that their fling is over.

Now let's get down to the important stuff: Who was the dumper and who was the dumpee? Apparently John wins the dumper title; Jessica was the -- gasp -- dumpee.

According to Page Six, "Mayer has already dumped Simpson, because, insiders say, she and her pals are too loose-lipped for the reclusive Mayer. One person in the Mayer camp told Us Weekly the relationship 'was a 2 [that] her camp spun into an 11 . . . [Mayer] thinks it's desperate . . . an attempt to stay in the spotlight.' "

Jessica's star must be falling when she's getting dumped and dissed by John Mayer.

I was just watching Katie Couric's debut on the CBS Evening News and she had a hot exclusive: photos of baby Suri Cruise. The pictures -- two of which were shown on Katie's show -- are from the Vanity Fair cover story, which will be on newsstands tomorrow.

The little girl in question has a thick head of black hair and is really cute. I guess all that PhotoShopping turned the alien into a human.

Update: Find out about more the 22-page spread in Vanity Fair here.

Pirates of the Caribbean star Orlando Bloom has told girlfriend Kate Bosworth to walk the plank... again.

Entertainment Tonight broke the scoop:

Sources close to the former couple tell ET today that Orlando and Kate have decided to go their separate ways.

Enough about Kate (boring!), now that yummy Orlando is single again, who should he date next? Play matchmaker for the single star below, or vote in my poll.

Not only will there be one new little Diddy but his rep confirms that there will be two!

Yep, twins for Diddy and Kim Porter.

I suggest he changes the theme of his annual white party to... eggshell. With two new babies there's going to be baby vomit all over his trademark bright white suits.

Keep up with baby news in the Celebrity Baby Tracker.

So who is she being linked to now? (You know every celeb has a standby.) The unlucky fella is Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz, who TrAsh was making out with the other night at a club in NYC. For Pete's part, he had been dating Michelle Trachtenberg. He's said to have kicked the Buffy to the curb for Jessica's little sis.

Ashlee and Pete were outted on Saturday night when they were getting hot and heavy at Don Hills in NYC. Apparently in between vomiting sessions, TrAsh was straddling Pete for all the other patrons to see.

Funny -- Papa Joe Simpson is said to have freaked out earlier this year when Ashlee wanted move in with Braxton. I wonder what he's saying now that she's was playing straddle ball with Mr. Eyeliner Overdoser.

Weddings: Jeremy London married his creepy girlfriend, Melissa Cunningman, over the weekend. Watching the nups? Scott Wolf from Party of Five. I told you the boys had a nice reunion last week at the TV Guide post-Emmy bash... In other Party of Five news, Jennifer Aspen -- who played Charlie's baby mama Daphne -- got hitched over the weekend as well in a Scientology ceremony. No, Tom Cruise wasn't there for his cult get-together. Who was? Jenna Elfman, Catherine Bell and Giovanni Ribisi.

Debut: Rosie O'Donnell made her big debut on The View today, which I would have loved to have seen had my cable not been out since Saturday morning after a little rainstorm. (Are you listening Cablevision? You stink!) Rosie's first guest was Jessica Simpson, who said: "I'm not actually dating John Mayer." Whatever the heck that means. Jessica's manager father -- Papa Joe -- clearly handed that story to the press last week because it was on the cover of People and Us. Otherwise no one would have cared that she was dating that rather drip.

Knocked Around: Speaking of talk show hosts, Ellen DeGeneres and her gal pal Portia de Rossi were in a nasty fender bender last Friday. Apparently a drunk driver hit a car, which crashed into PorEll's car. Ellen had some neck pain, but other than that was okay.

Settled: Jennifer Aniston has settled a lawsuit against a photog who took topless photos of her in her yard. No word on which party collected damages, but my guess is Team Aniston.

UPDATE: Posh's rep says she isn't pregnant.

Are David and Victoria Beckham adding to their mini-soccer team?

According to reports, David announced on a Spanish talk show that his wife, skinny minnie Posh Spice, is expecting their fourth kid.

An official announcement is supposed to come today.

The couple -- who married in 1999 -- have three boys: Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.

Word has it, Mommy won't stop until she gets a girl to share her fabulous wardrobe and jewelry with.

In other Spice news, Geri Halliwell's three-month-old daughter, who is named Bluebell, was left bruised and bawling after being left in the care of a temporary nanny.

Ordinarily I'd make fun of her daughter's horrible name, but I'll refrain because it's a serious situation.

I'd like to wish a heartfelt congratulations to Kate Moss, who has confirmed that she's marrying her crackhead boyfriend Pete Doherty.

News of the World reports:

The supermodel sensationally confessed: "Yes, we're getting married."

And Kate told pals at a gig in north London this week: "I love him so much. He's the sexiest man on the planet."

"I want to be with him. It's just a case of when. There are certain circumstances which we have to get over and then we'll be together."

Over the weekend, I was chatting about this whole Kate/Pete debacle. I said to the person I was with: I just don't get it. He's been arrested a zillion times. He injected a fan with a syringe. He squirted blood at a cameraman. He's outta control. How does she think it's ever going to work out?

My friend just looked at me and said: She's a supermodel, Suzy. You're mistaking her for someone who is intelligent. She's in love and that's all that matters. Crackhead or not.

I was like: Right. I totally forgot. I was thinking that she is as smart as the rest of us.

Anyway, good news for said crackhead: He's avoided jail time yet again. Yesterday a judge told him he needs to stick to his rehab program and he won't be locked up.

Again, if I ever get arrested, may it be in England.

Perez Hilton is pretty damn amusing. I love how he rags on celebs, then totally parties with them. And stars are shameless -- they all just want their name in print -- so they ignore all his nasty nasties and kiss his behind when they see him at events. One of the best examples is Ashlee Simpson, who he recently hung with right before the VMAs. For months Perez has referred to her as "Asslee" whenever she's referenced in his blog. But when they met, instead of telling Perez to kiss her Asslee, she told him that she doesn't mind his nickname for her.

That's one way to handle it, right?

But one Jesse Metcalfe (Desperate Housewives) isn't as spineless, pathetic easygoing as Asslee. He ran into Perez the other night and got on him for always saying that he's gay.

Here's Perez's recap:

I know you've been waiting all weekend for official word on the status of Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz's relationship... or not.

Anyway, on yesterday's Ellen, Justin set the record straight about the status of his relationship with Cameron, saying that he might get married -- in 15 years.

Ellen (asking about the rumor they're getting hitched): "The only reason I need to know [is] I need to know, should I get a bridesmaid dress now or not?"

JT: "Know what? Go ahead and reserve one... The only thing is, you'll have to stay the same size for the next 15 years... We're not engaged."

Now you can go about your busy days confident in the fact that Justin and Cameron will not be marrying (or divorcing) anytime soon.

At last night's VMAs, the big winner was a group called OK Go, who did this amazing live performance in which they jumped around... on treadmills! It was super cool. Anyway, they really found fame by circulating their video on the Internet -- it's been on YouTube for quite awhile, so you may have seen it in your inbox courtesy of a friend.

So I thought I'd post it. If you missed last night's performance, check out the original right here. And if you saw it last night, heck, check it out anyway. It really is a cool thing to watch.

File this under: If It's True, It's Ridiculous...

Page Six, Splash news and Extra are reporting that Harry Morton has purchased an engagement ring for his girlfriend of two months, Lindsay Lohan.

"Harry Morton was spotted on a secret trip to Cartier in Beverly Hills where he picked out the sparkler... A few hours later, Morton, 25, whisked the 20-year-old singer-actress away for a romantic vacation where he's likely to pop the question. An insider said: 'He is ready to take their relationship to the next level.' "

It's true -- Lindsay and Harry are now in Hawaii on vacation. But if this whole engagement story is legit, it's plum idiotic. She's 20. At this rate, she's going to surpass Elizabeth Taylor's wedding record by the time she's 30.

I just stumbled upon this photo -- taken yesterday -- of Chris O'Donnell, who clearly is rocking a newly shaved look.

This means one thing: Meredith is not picking McVet over McDreamy on Grey's Anatomy. I mean, really -- how could she pick this cueball over Derek with his thick, wavy hair?

Clearly I can't wait for the show to start.

And for those folks who were going to rag her for being greedy, the article also says that she'll donate a large part of her salary to a cancer charity.

Hmmm... Maybe Jen's money will go to cancer research, scientists will find a cure of lung cancer and then it totally won't be weird that a chainsmoker is the new face of a line of athletic wear.

Sorry for the late start... The VMAs took a lot out of me. The live blogging was a lot of fun (I think I was mostly amusing myself), but the show went on forever and ever. Anyway, I just posted a Best & Worst of the VMAs slide show if you want to take a look, then I'll wrangle up some celebrity gossip for you.
