...Big Pussy!

Vincent Pastore will no longer be putting on a little red bolero jacket and dancing the mambo, according to a press release from ABC. The actor said the physical demands of the 10-week competition are just too much for him. "When I initially committed to joining Dancing with the Stars, I didn't realize just how physically demanding it would be for me. Unable to put forth my best effort, I felt it appropriate to step aside and give someone else the opportunity."

No word on who his replacement will be.

Old Vinny only got through one week of rehearsals.
The joke here is so obvious, and I'm much too much of a lady to make it.
Wink, wink.

As mentioned, Tracy and I will be debating some of the hot gossip that we disagreed on this month. For example -- the fact that Tracy thinks Gisele is skanky and how I think Will Smith is too much of a goodie-goodie. Today's topic? Britney. Let's just dive in...

Suzy: Now for Britney... I wish you'd be harder on the girl. I know she's in the midst of a very public meltdown, but don't you think she brought these problems upon herself? Who told her to marry scummy boyz? Have two kids and have someone else raise them? She had it all -- fame, fortune a cute boyfriend, hair -- and threw it all away. I like the girl -- I do. But I just don't feel bad for the predicament she's in. Famous or not, in life you have to surround yourself with exceptional people. People who know you inside and out and genuinely want the best for you and will watch your back. You've had the same posse since high school/college, so I'm sure you can see my point. How did things get so far outta control? She needs to fire her employees, family members and friends.

Tracy: Oh, Britney! To be honest, I just feel like how much more can anyone say about her? And I guess I'm a softie when I see someone get so slammed by everybody in the world. Don't get me wrong, I fully enjoy participating in ragging on stupid antics of celebrities, but sometimes I can't help but reach a saturation point. She's a wacko with tons of problems right now, no doubt, but that sentimental (or wimpy, you choose) part of me wants her to get it together and make a huge comeback. Psssst! I even want her to get back with J.T. Shhh...

Suzy: Beats the hell outta K-Fed! But let's just let her get her hair back first.

Grey's Anatomy star Katherine Heigl may not be playing our beloved Izzie much longer, according to People.com. Heigl has dropped out of contract negotiations with the ABC drama and sources say she is not happy with treatment she is getting.

"Katie is disappointed and hurt that (producer) Touchstone doesn't value her as much as her other costars, especially Sandra Oh and Isaiah Washington," the source says. ABC had no comment.

Izzie should hit the movies -- she's so the next Charlize Theron.

First Naomi Campbell takes on TV, now Victoria Beckham will be hitting the small screen.

E! is reporting that Posh will be appearing in a "real-life documentary" for NBC. Previous reports have said that Vicki's hubby, David, and their kids would be a part of the show, but a rep is now saying it will just be about Spicy herself.

Now remember, this is NOT a reality show, it is a documentary.
There's a difference.
Really.

"My daughter is going through a phase of wearing jeans so tight she can't bend her knees in them. I have a go at her and say, 'Can't you wear something else? You have a closet full of clothes and you wear the same pants every day . . . And please wear a belt because I don't want to see your butt crack when you bend over.' "

-- Madonna, the cone bustier-wearing, cross-burning, nude-posing, stage-humping, water bottle deep-throating pop star, to British Elle, about daughter, Lourdes.

Other models in attendance were Bar Refeali (Leo DiCaprio's current flame), Veronica Varekova, Yamila Diaz-Rahi, Ana Beatriz Barros and Marisa Miller.

No illnesses have been reported, so far.

Jeez, they might as well have gone to the nearest Taco Bell.

Remember last week when we dished about Brody Jenner and his terrible friend Spencer Pratt talking trash about everybody in the latest issue of Details?

Well, it seems that Lauren Conrad, who dated Jenner for a blink of an eye, is not happy. The Hills star skipped Us Weekly's Oscar party -- which was co-hosted by her own show! The buzz at the bash was that L.C. was so pissed at what Spencer said in the men's magazine that she refused to be in his presence.

When Jenner was asked about Conrad on the red carpet, he said, with a twinkle in his eye I'm sure, "I love Lauren. It's all good." Lauren's co-star, and Pratt's girlfriend, Heidi Montag, would only say, "I wish she was here."

Lauren's got class and pride and that's a lot more than I can say about the rest of them.

And by "hit" we mean a right hook to the jaw of Gerard Rechnitzer, a real estate broker, who was attending a post-Oscar party Sunday night.

Rechnitzer returned from a trip to the little boy's room to find Diddy hitting on his woman. When the man began to usher his fiance out, the rap mogul asked the lady to come to a party he was having. When Rechnitzer persisted, Diddy allegedly socked the man in the face. The man called 911, but Diddy left before police arrived.

I think the girl is at fault here. I mean, yeah, Puffy shouldn't have hit the guy, but the lady, who was probably loving the attention, could have put a stop to the altercation a lot sooner. No? What do you think?

As mentioned yesterday, Tracy and I will be debating some Hollywood gossip issues that we didn't agree on this month. Like what? Well, like the fact that Tracy called my girl Gisele a skank. A skank! Isn't that a term reserved for Paris Hilton and her peeps? Anyway, today's topic is Will Smith. Tracy is jiggy with Big Willie. I find him too much of a goodie-goodie bore. Here, we duke it out Blabber style...

Tracy: Now, about Will Smith. How could you possibly disagree with me on his hotness? The man is a gift from God and having it all certainly agrees with him. With talent up the wazoo, adorable offspring and a wife that adores him, Big Willie Style is the total package. I certainly wouldn't kick him out of bed -- or off the couch, or the kitchen table... um, sorry, whatever. If you think differently I'd like to hear your crazy reasoning.

Suzy: You know what it is? The Pinkett-Smiths bore me. Just once I want to hear Will drop the f-bomb in one of his songs -- or take a role in which he plays a beer swiggin', adulterous jerk. Instead everything is peachy keen perfection and a cynical gossipeur like myself just doesn't buy that. Truthfully, I think there's something going on between the Smiths and Cruises. What do they have in common? It's quite suspicious. I think the Pinkett-Smiths have been sipping the Kool Aid.

Naomi Campbell is one of my favorite people to talk trash about because she is so -- how can I put this -- INSANE!
Now we can all watch as the drama unfolds together.

The supermodel is set to star in her own MTV reality show, which will depict her search for a new assistant. A source said: "Naomi is famous for her spats with staff, so the idea is to try to have some fun and capitalize on the situation. Plus, it's TV work, which Naomi hopes will lead to acting jobs."

Naomi's last six assistants have quit because of her violent temper.
SIX!
I'm setting the TIVO now.

We knew Drew Barrymore spent her birthday with BFF Cameron Diaz on the beach in Hawaii, but we just heard that Drew also had a male companion.

Hottie director Spike Jonze accompanied Drew and Cameron on their island getaway, and Ms. B and Spike shared some couple time in the ocean. He was also by her side on the trip home.

Whatever is going on is certainly working for Drew, who has been looking mighty fine as of late.

Ok, Suzy. Just breathe.

The word on the street is that former Melrose Place co-stars Heather Locklear and Jack Wagner were seen at a pre-Oscar party "hand-in-hand".

Now, if you've kept up with how Suzy and I came to be, you know that we met at a former place of employment, where we bonded over our love for Jack Wagner. Well, it was actually our love for Wagner's character on General Hospital, Frisco Jones, but we spent countless hours talking about how one day he would be ours. I think we even agreed to share. We went as far as going to see him in concert together -- but that's a whole other story.

Anyway, Locklear, who's recently broken up with David Spade, always had intense chemistry with Jack on -screen, and now it seems to have carried over. Spies say the duo "looked very much like a couple - they seemed very comfortable together. They stayed close to each other during the party and they even left hand in hand.”

Foiled again, Suze!

Michelle Williams and Heath Ledger, who met and fell in love on the set of Brokeback Mountain, have managed to fly under the radar since coupling up. The twosome, who live Brooklyn with their daughter, Matilda, kept out of trouble by blowing off the Hollywood life for a while.

Well, time might be up. Sources say Michelle and Heath had a huge falling out when Heath spent Valentine's Day with a bunch of other ladies at Teddy's in Los Angeles. Though the source says Ledger wasn't doing anything inappropriate, Michelle heard about it and freaked. She's reportedly giving him the cold shoulder.

Hopefully this is just a small bump in the road for the lovebirds. I'd really love to see them make it.

Why he can't Bobby Brown stay out of trouble? You would think he would learn from his mistakes.

According to Access Hollywood, the actor was arrested in Massacuhsettes Sunday, for the second time this year, for failing to appear at a child support hearing in October. Bob is stuck in jail until he can come up with $19,000 in back child support. Brown was picked up by police at his daughter's high school, where he was attending her cheerleading competition.

He was on a roll. Attending her cheerleading competiton was a good thing. Getting arrested there? Not so much.

Eddie grabbed his date, Tracey Edmonds, and stormed out of the theater. He didn't even bother staying to see if co-star Jennifer Hudson took home the gold, or watch the girls perform.

That Eddie. What a team player, huh?

Cute and chivalrous? That might just be the case for this young Hollywood star.

Josh Hartnett was leaving one of his regular Lower East Side taverns the other night in NYC, when he came across a man harassing a woman. According to Page Six, Josh stepped in and, without throwing any punches, advised the guy to step off. A source said that there was no physical altercation -- just a couple of raised voices as Josh gave the bully a good talking to.

Sigh. My hero.

Now that there are officially two Blabber-ers -- well, two and a half with our beloved Lindsey -- Tracy and I thought it would be fun to go head to head on some of our differing opinions. Then you guys can weigh in and tell me I'm the one who is totally right who you agree with.

Suzy: So you called Gisele a skank this month and caught some crap for it from the supermodel lovers. I have to agree with them, I really don't think Gisele is skanky. She dated Leo for like five years and Tom Brady has been her only big boyfriend since. It's not her fault Tom stuck and ducked Bridget Moyahan. I blame him. Besides, if Gisele is a skank, how do you describe Paris Hilton and the members of her posse like Kim Stewart and the new sex tape queen Kim Kardashian? Skank city, friend.

Tracy: Point taken. Those other names you dropped (Paris, Kim S. and K.K.) are from the superslut category --there's a difference. Anyway, Gisele walks around like her doo-doo doesn't smell like poo-poo, and that annoys me. Whether or not Tom is to blame in this whole baby fiasco is null and void. I'd just love to see Gisele get dumped and knocked down off her very high, supermodel horse.

Check this out. An obsessed fan handcuffed herself to Hugh Grant at the premiere of Music and Lyrics in Amsterdam.

Cielke Sijben, a journalist working for a Dutch TV station, leaped forward as Grant walked the red carpet in Amsterdam and clamped the cuff on the star's wrist. Firefighters were called in to break Grant free, and the reporter was arrested by police.

A witness said Hugh was a good sport about everything. "He was the ultimate professional. He just stood in silence and waited for the firefighters to free him. He did look relieved when he disappeared into the theatre - she could have been a maniac."

Okay, I guess if I were a star that would freak me out, too, but reading about it just made me laugh.

The girl is in rehab and the drama still can't be stopped. According to The Mirror, Britney was in need of medical attention last night at Promises.

Paramedics rushed to the facility to treat the fading starlet, with Brit's mom and Kevin arriving shortly after. Officials confirmed that Spears was examined by paramedics after a call by worried staff on Saturday night. A Malibu sheriff at the scene said, "She is going to be okay."

A another witness reported, "Police said staff were concerned about Britney - but they didn't say why."

Nobody said detox was easy.

I'm just sitting here thinking some more about the Oscar telecast and I can't help but think Beyonce was trying to outsing Jennifer Hudson in their performance of the nominated songs from Dreamgirls.

J-Hud had just come off her win for Best Supporting Actress (which B was not even nominated for), and though we've been hearing tons of talk about how there's no animosity between the divas, and they are all supportive of each other and crap of that nature, it seemed to me that there definitely was some sort of singing battle taking place on that stage.

Loved the performance -- those girls can belt out a tune like nobody's business-- but I almost thought they were going to break into a rendition of "Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better".

Because it's just not a day without some news on Britney Spears, I'll tell you this; K-Fed brought the kids to visit Brit on Saturday, People is reporting.

That's right. Britney's do-gooding-as-of-late ex brought Sean Preston, 17 months, and Jayden, 5 months to see their momma at Promises in Malibu. "The kids are his No. 1 priority and they always have been," the source says. "He's so stressed out right now. He only wants the best for Britney and the kids."

It continues to amaze me that Kevin is coming out of all of this looking like a pillar of the community. Wonders never cease.

"This is the only naked man that will ever be in my bedroom."

The buzz at some Oscar parties over the weekend was that ultimate Playboy Hugh Hefner will marry girlfriend, Holly Madison, on his reality show, The Girls Next Door, by the end of the year. "Hef thinks business all the time, and looks for a new hook, although he also does really love Holly," says a source.

Though Hef technically has three girlfriends, Holly, sexy Kendra, and dim-bulb Bridget, sources say Holly is the most devoted. She does get to sleep in Hef's bed. At night. When they're sleeping.

The wedding is being kept hush hush, but keep your eyes open for some signs when you're watching the new season of the show.

I'll just ask my husband to tell me if Holly is wearing a wedding dress, because he certainly pays no attention to what they are saying.

I wish I could give Ellen an Oscar for her awesome job as host, but I guess she technically would get an Emmy, because they were on televison...

It's 6:29 a.m., and having officially pulled an all-night, I feel like I'm back in college. While I go celebrate an amazing Oscar night with a pot of coffee and a pint of Ben & Jerry's (sssh, it's a very nutritious breakfast), check out what kept me up all night.

From Jennifer Hudson's big win to Kirsten Dunst's HORRENDOUS dress/makeup/hair/personality/everything, don't miss photos of the highlights and lowlights of the Oscars.

Go to the Best and Worst of the 2007 Academy Awards slide show now!

Tom was missing his Kat during the show, but don't worry, the separation was only temporary. They reunited at the Vanity Fair party right after the Oscars ended. Bummer. Check in on photos of other hot couples we spotted at the show in our slide show.

Go to the 2007 Hot Oscar Couples slide show now!

I love that Jack Nicholson is rocking the Britney look. And I thought he was the trendsetter.

Forest Whitaker won (as predicted). And, yes, Martin Scorsese finally won. Hip hip hooray.

To me, it's one step closer to the end of the show. I'm beat.

Here's another one for the ladies... Georgie Clooney presenting.

What the hell is going on with Philip Seymour Hoffman's hair? I know he's not all into style and fashion -- he's an artiste. But comb your friggin' hair when you're presenting at the Oscars!

Here you go, sis. Hope this makes you happy. He's totally awes.

I wish they gave out a lot of the "boring awards" during a pre-show ceremony like they do at the Grammys. (Not that it makes the Grammys any shorter!) So during things like Best Score, I have to find my own amusement. In this instance, it's looking at a photo of Emily Blunt and Michael Buble. I don't know why I like them so much, but I really do. Or maybe it's just her accent. She sounds so cool. Damn those Brits. They could be saying something like "I'm a total bimbo slut" and still sound cute and classy while doing it.

Dude, there should be some type of rule that people need to deliver their Oscar speeches in English... or we need an interpreter who is on it. Poor Clint Eastwood, who forgot his glasses and barely got through his own lines, is playing interpreter and it's not going so well.

In the meanwhile, I think I've found another couple in which the dude is shorter than the dame. Check out Marky Mark and his baby mama.

While Celine Dion puts us to sleep... how about a little Daniel Craig to keep us up.

This one is for my sis, who loves to say "Daniel Craig"... over and over and over.

Jennifer Hudson shouldn't have won supporting actress because she looks so unfortunate. But at least she lost the space age coat. That makes it look way better.

And I love how Beyonce is clenching her hands together. Fakeness.

One last thing... Does God not love me because I don't have an Oscar? I hate when celebs thank God for silly statuettes. Makes me glad to live in the real world.

And do you notice they're sorta walking funny? Straight hair causes people to walk weird? It's like they're trying so hard to keep it tucked behind their ears that they're all walking like robots.

I love Ellen and thought her opening act was great. Maybe she should stick to the stage.

Oprah looks good these days. Not skinny minnie, but healthy. That's why I'm committing myself to 30 minutes of exercise a day, five days a week -- a la Bob Green and the Best Life thing. Well, I'm committed to it this week. Who knows beyond that.

Kirsten is holding her tummy because _________________________________.

And may I say that I've been up close and person with my bathmat lately. I slept on it last weekend. Seriously. Talk about a hot mess.

Our Beauty & Style team is taking a little poll and I thought you'd like to cast your vote as well. Not sure why Jennifer Lopez is on the best dressed (she looked hideous), but that's why I'm a gossipeur and they're the fashion experts. Weigh in below.

Mission accomplished.

But I just caught a glimpse of Nicole Kidman's red dress. Showstopper, folks. Meanwhile, I saw her on that Oprah special the other night and she was a weirdo. So much surgery. So insecure. I felt so much better about myself by the time that was over.

I love Rachel Weisz and I think everyone looks good in red lipstick (I'm an addict), but I'm not loving her here tonight. Her eyes look uneven. She just looks off.

And may I point out that it's friggin' Scientology night at the Oscars. The Travoltas, Cruises, the Lopez-Anthonys, the Pinkett-Smiths... Are they recruiting or something?

Am I the only one who doesn't think he belongs at the Oscars? He's too boring. The craziest thing the man ever did was make out with his wife at the Democratic Convention back in the day.

If this is his night and he's a big highlight, I need to be heading to bed now.

PS: I think Tipper stopped getting blonde highlights, right? I guess that's what they mean when they say "ash blonde."

Pretty dress though -- the top part at least. The bottom is a little too big.

Katie Holmes and Penelope Cruz posing together and looking happy. Either they are great, great actresses (nah!) or they actually kinda like each other. Penelope is actually clutching Katie's dress -- weird. That whole Cruise clan is a bizarre one. But I don't have to tell you guys that.

Jodie starred in my favorite movie when I was a teen -- Stealing Home. I must have watched that friggin thing 500 times. I'm sure it won some Razzies. I thought it was groundbreaking... it was forgettable. But I digress.

And shout out to Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard. I love them. Maggie looks so pretty. And I recently saw a picture of Ramona -- I think in today's NY Post -- and what a cutie. She looks a lot like Peter.

Hey guys --
Don't forget that I will be here on Sunday live blogging the Oscars! I actually won't be "here" -- I'll be in Florida, with some room service, blogging away because I'll be on iVillage Live the next day at noon. So please come by and make fun of the stars with me. I promise we'll have some fun.
Till then...
Suzy

Because I know you need an afternoon Britney-fix, munch on this piece of Brit Brit gossip.

K-Fed reportedly visited her in rehab! How the Fedster ever came out of this looking like the "good" guy, I have no freakin' clue, but it's happened.

Supposedly worried about Britney and his two sons (who have been staying with him with Britney's mom's blessing), he went to Promises in Malibu, where Britney is being treated.

A source close to K-Fed told People.com, "Britney scared everyone pretty bad. Kevin is worried that's for sure. Kevin just wants her to be OK. He loves her, so however she can get better is just what we'll have to accept. [They] will make it work with the kids – it's all still for them."

Promises so sounds like the name of a strip club, doesn't it? What in the world do you think K-Fed said to Britney during his visit?

Former New Kid on the Block and Surreal Life star Jordan Knight and his wife, Evelyn, welcomed their second son to the world on Wednesday. People reports that Eric Jacob Knight was born 7pounds, five ounces, after an "intense" labor.

Eric joins older brother Dante Jordan, 7.

Three more to go to complete the next great boy band!

"We're trying to work everything out so the divorce goes right – not like a Hollywood divorce," Brown told People at Thursday's annual Vanity Fair Amped concert in Hollywood. "We're friends, you know. We're friends."

Whit filed for divorce from Bobby in October, after a tumultuous 14-year marriage. The couple share a daughter, Bobbi Kristina, 13, and plan to raise their girl together. "She's the greatest thing in both of our lives," said Brown. "We just appreciate each other now that we know the direction that we both want to go."

I applaud their efforts, but I've seen Being Bobby Brown. Even on Bobby and Whitney's best day, together they are train wreck.

Rapper Busta Rhymes just can't seem to lay low enough for the cops. He was arrested yesterday in New York City for driving without a valid license, after blowing a red light.

Busta spent 18 hours in a holding cell before being arraigned. He pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor charge and was released on his own recognizance.

Rhymes is already facing sentencing on two assault charges and was given a sweetheart plea offer: six months in jail or six months of anger-management classes and speaking to kids.

Great-- that's who I want teaching my kid right from wrong.

Kimberly Williams and Brad Paisely welcomed a baby boy Thursday morning in a Nashville hospital. Mom and tot are doing well.

This is the first child for the According to Jim actress and her country star hubby, who met when Kim appeared in one of Brad's videos. They married in 2003.

Cigars all around!

MTV cutie Nick Cannon has married his girlfriend of three weeks, Victoria's Secret model Selita Ebanks. Sources say the couple, who were in Sin City for the NBA All-Star festivities, got married on a whim.

The couple met at a Super Bowl event in Miami and are planning a wedding reception in L.A. this weekend.

Now let me see...
They met at the Super Bowl, got married during the NBA All-Star game, which means, according to my calculations, they should be divorced by opening day of baseball season. Yup -- that seems right.

In the "what was he thinking?" category, The Daily News is reporting that Oscar nominee Terrence Howard and crazy, cell-phone throwing Naomi Campbell are a hot new item.

Howard was supposedly by the model's side when she had a run-in with Diddy at a post-Grammy party. Now sources are saying these two will make their big debut on Oscar night.

Why, why, why? This man is the total package -- talented, sweet and gorgeous. Does he not know Naomi is a holy terror?

Here's hoping Terrence has a complete set of goalie gear. I'm thinking a face mask, knee pads, a big wooden stick...

These two are addicted to babies.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are looking to add yet another child to their ever-growing brood. The gorgeous twosome have filed papers to take home a little boy from an orphanage in Vietnam, according to Us Weekly.

This newbie will be number 4 for Brangie. The pair already have three children -- Maddox, 5, Zahara, 2, and Shiloh, 9 months.

It's a girl!

Studio 60 star Amanda Peet and her husband, screenwriter David Benioff, welcomed a baby girl yesterday. The baby's name is Frances Pen, named for Peet's mother, Penny, reports Us Weekly.

Peet had planned on attending a Hollywood lunch on Wednesday -- but the stork had other plans. She went into labor and was rushed to a nearby hospital.

Congrats!

I feel like a friggin' yo-yo! Access Hollywood is reporting that Britney Spears is BACK IN REHAB! She reportedly checked back into Promises last night.

A paparazzi agency -- clearly stalking the meltdown mama -- spotted the pop singer returning to the Malibu treatment facility late last night. She was reportedly dropped off by her mother, Lynne.

Now join me in prayer... that I don't have to type the words Britney or Spears again today. I'm over it.

My friend KD has been known to belt out "Waiting For Tonight" in a karaoke bar every now and then, so I'm sure she's going to be psyched that Jennifer Lopez is scheduled to perform on American Idol on April 11th, which just happens to be K's birthday.

Access Hollywood reports that Mrs. Marc Anthony will be joining a good looking list of big names being thrown around to take the stage on the talent competition this season.

I really hope J.Lo sings in English -- Simon can barely understand anyone on the show as it is.

For more TV gossip and news, visit our friends at TV Cocktail, yo!

No word on whether or not this will be permanent... or if Britney is going to check into (and out of) a new rehab facility today.

It's kinda crazy when the king of Popozao is the "responsible parent."

"I used to live in the same area as Britney for a while. I just want to scoop her up and give her a kiss. I hope she's all right. She's just had a new baby and stuff. I hope she can just enjoy it because it's an incredible thing. [And, I think] she looks good with her hair shaved off."

There was all this crazy talk yesturday that Christina Aguilera had a baby on board, but her publicist has called the rumor "all made up".

An employee at the posh baby boutique Bellini said that the dirty girl and her hubby, Jordan Bratman, were perusing the store and purchased over $3,000 worth of goods for their baby-to-be. Chrissy's rep said there's no way her client could have been seen at the Beverly Hills store, as "she was on a plane to Las Vegas for [an] NBA appearance."

I guess if we start to see some dark roots in her platinum blonde locks we'll know the real truth.

Tickets for the much-anticipated Van Halen reunion tour, featuring wild-man lead singer David Lee Roth, were slated to go on sale this weekend, but that's not going to be the case.

Though no reason was given for the hold on the 40-date tour, Eddie Van Halen's publicist said reports of a cancellation shouldn't be considered fact until an official announcement is made.

Right. I won't be digging up my 1984 concert shirt anytime soon.

The rock group is still scheduled to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 12th.

Who wants to guess what David Lee Roth did this time?

Not like any of us really had a chance, anyway.

Page Six is reporting that superstar Usher has proposed to his longtime girlfriend, stylist Tameka Foster. Though a rep for the hottie had no comment, sources say Usher has been introducing Foster as his fiancee and she has been seen sportin' quite the lovely ring bling.

Tameka must have come to terms with Usher's very public infidelity while dating TLC's Chili -- or she just can't see past his six-pack.

We hope Ashlee Simpson wasn't making any long-term plans with Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz.

The nutty musician had these very nice things to say about Ash to Rolling Stone, "Maybe in a different universe, we'd be some hot couple, but not in this one. I'm attracted to creative people and train wrecks, and there's no shortage of that in Los Angeles."

Pete sure knows how to make a girl feel special.

The king of romance was also seen out and about (and by out and about I mean making out) with Bruce and Demi's daughter Rumer and Buffy's Michelle Trachtenberg, who were fighting over him.

He disgusts me.

I know the rumors are flying about Britney, but this one is disturbing enough to talk about. The National Enquirer says the very troubled starlet tried to take her own life twice in the hours after shaving her head.

Sources say Brit attempted to walk into traffic, but was saved at the last minute by one of her staff, and later was rushed to a medical facility after taking too many Xanax.Her breakdown was supposedly set off by a meeting with her ex Kevin Federline, who warned Britney that he would take their kids away if she failed a drug test.

K-Fed has since called for an emergency hearing this morning to address the custody dispute.

The only good that is coming out of this madness is that someone is looking out for these little boys. Do I think they will have a healthy home with their dad? Not likely, but at this point, it's got to be safer than living with Brit.

How did this happen?

ABC Plans Grey's Anatomy Spinoff

A spin-off? According to the story from the Wall Street Journal, ABC is looking for a spin-off for Kate Walsh's character, Dr. Addison Montgomery.

She's totally one of my favorites and I think it would be awesome if she got her own show. Add in a little Justin Chambers (Alex) and I promise that I won't ever be "a few episodes behind" again. I love them. Love them. Love them.

Well, you get the point.

Britney Spears certainly isn't the first famous female to rock the buzzed look... though she might be the most, um, mentally unstable. Hot Hollywood stars have been taking it all off for some time now -- with mixed results. In the latest Daily Blabber video blog, I look at Britney's cue ball and some other "bald is beautiful" celebrity babes.

Watch Daily Blabber: Celebrity Baldies now, then weigh in on the baldies.

The Desperate Housewives star and her husband, Tom Mahoney, welcomed daughters on Tuesday in Los Angeles. The fraternal twins were given the names Eden and Savannah.

"Mother and babies are all doing well," Marcia's mouthpiece said in an e-mail to the Associated Press.

Marcia has been on bed rest since January, which -- thanks to star moms like Julia Roberts -- we've come to learn is often a precautionary measure for moms expecting multiples.

Congrats to Marcia. And I have to say that I love the names Eden and Savannah -- very soap opera-ish. Marcia got her start on One Life to Live, so I think it's very fitting.

Britney, Britney, Britney.

Girl is wearing me out.

Extra is reporting that Britney Spears has left rehab yet again. She has been in Promises Malibu since, um, yesterday, but "suddenly left less than 24 hours after entering the treatment facility."

Like it or not, there will be many more details to follow.

With the show just days away, I thought that I'd give you the list of Academy Award presenters/attendees -- so far. And I wanted to let you know that I will be live blogging the show on Sunday night (perhaps from sunny Florida!), so be sure to stop by and chat about fashion don'ts, scary couples, celeb slip-ups and all that other good stuff.

ABC has announced the new list of peeps who will be Dancing With the Stars this season and, like we reported last week, money hungry Heather Mills is one of them!

Oh, the fun we are about to have!!

Also on tap (pun intended), 90210's Steve Sanders (woohooo!), Mr. Achy Breaky Heart, Billy Ray Cyrus, NBA star Clyde Drexler, Justin Timberlake's compadre Joey Fatone and "Big Pussy" Vincent Pastore. There are some others but I doubt you'll care.

Do you even care about these names? Will you be watching? Who will you root for? Will you laugh with me about Money Hungry? Talk back!

Us Weekly is reporting that Naomi Watts is preggers. The father is boyfriend of two years, Liev Schreiber.

Though the actress' rep won't comment on her personal life, the couple was seen in New York's trendy eatery Pastis, over the weekend, where Watts looked "visibly pregnant."

If they're happy, I'm happy.

Maybe Britney wasn't so nutty for cutting all of her hair off. The Mirror is reporting that the hairless wonder may have had head lice!

Supposedly Brit, while leaving the Mondrian hotel, was heard saying, "I had to get rid of the lice. They were horrible." And a source close to her said, "She thought lice were eating her hair extensions, so she decided to get rid of them as soon as possible."

The British paper is also reporting that ex-flame, Justin Timberlake, has made a statement defending his former love:
"It was a smart choice, she is starting over, cleaning herself up. It was something you wouldn't expect most people to do, so she is taking a chance."

That Justin. Always saying the right thing, but, if Brit really did have the little buggers, "cleaning herself up" is an understatement.

It may be hard to find the new issue of Details, because I have a feeling Brody Jenner will be buying them all. And not for your typical celebrity-ego reasoning.

The men's mag has a very unflattering profile on the celebrity kid, pegging him as a man-slut, only looking to ride the coattails of the "girl of the hour" to further his, ahem, career. Jenner and best friend Spencer Pratt (if you watch MTV's The Hills it's that Spencer) gave a "What were thinking?" interview, in which Pratt admits that he told Jenner to date Nicole Richie to fatten her up, so he could be "a f*cking hero to America."

I kid you not. Could I make that up? There's so much more ridiculousness in the article that Jenner is now saying that he is "horrified" by the piece.

Maybe he should rethink his choice in friends? Come to think of it, after the world gets wind of the article, he won't have much choice in the matter.

That's all she wrote for the makeup loving duo of Carmen Electra and Dave Navarro.

The couple, who split "amicably" in July are officially divorced as of yesturday. The smarties, who had a prenup -- I mean why wouldn't you in Hollywood these days? -- split their assets accordingly, and opted to waive spousal support.

It's sad. I liked these two together, they genuinely seemed in love. Anyway Carmen can go marry Joan Jett now and Dave, well, Dave can go make out with as many models as he wants. I'll support them both in their future endeavors.

"I think it's just maybe how she dealt with her fame. I think maybe she went a little cuckoo."

-- Queen Obvious Avril Lavigne, to W magazine on Britney flashing her crotch all over town

The host of the Late Late Show, Craig Ferguson, wants it known that he's not going to poke fun of Britney Spears on his show.

"For me, comedy should have a certain amount of joy in it," Ferguson says in the episode that airs tonight. "It should be about attacking the powerful - the politicians, the Trumps, the blowhards -- going after them. We shouldn't be attacking the vulnerable."

That's so, so sweet Craig. So sweet. And that's precisely why I will be watching Conan O'Brien at 12:35am.

Access Hollywood has obtained a statement from Britney's manager, Larry Rudolph, confirming that the mom tart has indeed checked into rehab. And it goes a little something like this...

"Britney Spears has voluntarily checked herself into an undisclosed rehab facility today. We ask that the media respect her privacy as well as those of her family and friends at this time."

Wow... I wonder if her former BFF Madonna will send her flowers. Or Justin? Or that stripper she swapped panties with last week.

For the latest Britney news, visit our friends at Access Hollywood.

All that comes to mind is: Well Halle-friggin-lujah!

Access Hollywood has scored the first interview with Larry Birkhead since Anna Nicole's death.

Birkhead was on his way into the Broward County Court where the battle for custody for Smith's body is going on.
The photographer, who has said that Anna Nicole was the "love of his life", told Hollywood reporter Tony Potts that he's "been in bed, just not really able to get out," since the model's demise on February 8th.

Birkhead is hanging on to the hope that Dannielynn is proven to be his biological child. He credits the little girl with giving him the strength to get through these tough times. "I just look at a picture of my daughter and that's all I really need to see, to keep me strong."

World Entertainment News Network (WENN) is reporting that Kate Moss is taking time away from her very busy schedule of keeping boyfriend Pete Doherty alive, to develop a new perfume.

Wondering what it will smell like? I'm thinking a floral scent, with hints of cannabis, heroin and cocaine.
Here's hoping it also comes in a bottle with an easy-dispensing syringe top.

Put it on your Christmas list!

It's bad enough that the Rosie O'Donnell/Donald Trump feud ever existed at all, but it just won't die!

Rosie talked smack about the billionaire on her latest R Family Vacations cruise to the Caribbean Sunday.

She said some inappropriate things for a family cruise, if you ask me, but you can make your own call.
According to a source for E!, O'Donnell talked about how Trump told Larry King that he did not find her sexually attractive, coming back with, "It was always my dream to give a balding billionaire a boner."

Nice.

Rosie just can't seem to stop her diarrhea of the mouth. She even went as far as to diss boss Barbara Walters. Rosie said working with Babs was like "working with your Nana."

That's cold! My Nana is no longer a fan, Rosie.

There's been some thunder down under for Sylvester Stallone this past weekend. The 60-year-old powerhouse is under investigation in Australia after being stopped by custom officials for posessing what is reported to be banned bodybuilding substances.

The illegal substances were taken from Stallone and his crew after they were detained for hours on Friday night. Sly missed the premiere of his latest flick Rocky Balboa, which was the main reason for his visit.

To make matters worse, when officials stopped by Stallone's hotel to issue him a summons, objects were seen being tossed out the actor's window. A search of the room later turned up additional evidence.

Stallone has been quoted denying any intentional wrong-doing. "I do know [why I was stopped] but I can't tell you,'' he told the Sunday edition of the Telegraph. "To [customs officials] it's major, but it's really minor stuff. I just made a mistake...I misunderstood a few things and we are going through the process."

Sly was cleared to leave the country yesterday and will have to await further investigation. Penalties for possession of steroids and performance-enhancing substances can range from fines up to $110,000 or up to five years in jail.

Now this is creepy.

A video has surfaced of an eight-months pregnant Anna Nicole Smith, in clown makeup, looking and acting mighty drugged up. The tape, which aired last night on the Fox News Channel, has Anna pushing a baby carriage and talking to a doll as if it is a real baby. Howard K. Stern is the videographer and can be heard continually talking about how much the video will be worth.

I won't speculate on what any of this means, all I know is that The Shining is no longer the scariest thing I've ever seen.

Ugly Betty's Vanessa Williams is taking it all off again, but this time it's for Allure magazine's May "Look Better Naked Issue," according to Page Six.

The photos will probably not be as raunchy as the shoot that got her stripped of her Miss America title in 1984 -- in which Williams was having a tad bit too much fun with some other ladies -- though sources at Conde Nast have said that VW was completely sporting her birthday suit for the shoot.

We're pretty sure the reaction to these pics will be a lot less severe. And we bet she still looks hot.

She's at it again.

Heather Mills is going very far to get people to be believe that her soon-to-be ex-husband, Paul McCartney, is a terrible father. Paul is suing for full custody of their child, Beatrice, which has Heather reeling. Mills has submitted claims to a London divorce court, accusing Paul of being such "a bad father" to two of his four children with Linda MCartney, saying that the kids contemplated suicide.

Not only is there no known evidence to support these claims, but Paul's children have publicly supported their dad -- and his divorce from Mills.

Sources say the loony Mills is desperate. She's a persistent gold digger now, isn't she?

Rehab isn't just for celebrities. It's for celebrity siblings as well.

According to Perez Hilton, Misha Barton's look-alike sister Hania -- who is 19 -- checked into rehab seeking treatment for addiction to prescription pills.

Let's hope she stays a little longer than la Britney --one day! -- and gets the treatment that she needs.

First my memo to Britney:

Dear Brit,
WTF?!
Your friend,
Tracy

Now the latest on La Spears: Britney was seen poolside yesterday, at the Mondrian Hotel, in a short blonde wig. Maybe she's unhappy with the results of her shaving rampage? Maybe she was worried abut getting a major sunburn on her keppy? Don't know her motives, but the wigging out, bikini-clad pop princess was said to be hanging with friends and chain-smoking.

I really think in a couple of weeks, with a few inches of new hair growth, she might look decent. Right now -- not so cute.

The Daily News spoke to a Spears relative, who speculates that Britney's tour de crazy is a result of her depression over the death of her mother's sister in late January.

Whatever the reason, she's a sad girl who needs someone to take care of her for a bit. Not to mention those kids.

Oh, Brit.

Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson were seen sharing a romantic Valentine's Day dinner in Australia, but ended up having a run-in with a paparazzo who tried to snap a photo of the twosome.

Owen surprised his "good friend" down under this week, where she is filming her new movie with Matty McM, Fool's Gold. The couple, who have obviously been trying to keep their ongoing tryst under wraps, ran into trouble when Wilson, uncharacteristically, shoved a reporter when he got in their face.

I don't get it. You're celebrities. People take photos of you. My advice to Kate and Owen is, if they want to keep a secret, they should ... um, wait, give me a minute ... hmmm ... okay, how should I know?

Actor Ray Liotta was arrested Saturday night when he crashed his Caddy into a bunch of parked cars in Los Angeles. He was charged with a DUI, but reports say he was under the influence of something other than alcohol.

Hmmmm.

Nobody was hurt in the accident. The Goodfella was released on $15,000 bail and will await a court hearing.

But Karen, that was all we had!

Uh-oh.

The stork is coming to Bridget Moynahan's house, which is great, but there's just one teensy weensy problem -- the baby's daddy is her ex-boyfriend, Tom Brady. The Six Degrees actress, whose publicist says is "happy and healthy", is three months along with the New England Patriot's bun.

Brady has recently been linked to ubermodel Gisele Bundchen, since his breakup with Moynahan last December. The couple dated for two years.

I'm thinking it's curtains for Tom and Gisele. Here's hoping Brady comes to his senses and reunites with Bridget now. She's so much classier than that skanky Giselle.

What happened to the pop princess? She's so going serial killer route. Creepy.

Despite reports to the contrary, Britney Spears did go to rehab. Her publicist originally told Access Hollywood that the pop tart's 24 hour rehab visit was a lie... then decided to tell the friggin truth. Remember: That's very hard for a paid liar publicist.

From Access Hollywood:

In other Britney related news, a publicist for Spears at Jive Records, who earlier told Access Hollywood that Britney had not checked into a rehab facility called AH's Executive Producer at home, late last night and apologized. The rep now confirms Spears did visit a rehab facility but did not stay. The Jive representative now also told AH's Executive Producer that Britney left Antigua with her manager Larry Rudolph. They flew by private plane to Miami and took a commercial flight to Los Angeles.

Girl is a hot mess.

Britney Spears' hair is now being auctioned off to the highest bidder. Access Hollywood spoke with the owner of Esther's Haircutting Studio in Tarzana, Esther Tognozzi, who said she is planning to sell the singer's hair on eBay.

"They will donate a portion of the hair collected from the crop to the Britney Spears Foundation."

Seriously, couldn't Britney have just donated it to Locks of Love? C'mon now!

Esther told Us that after Brit shaved her hair, "She just looked in the mirror and said with tears in her eyes, 'Oh, my God, I shaved it all off. My mom is going to be so upset with me.'" Tognozzi says that prior to shaving Britney complained that her extensions were "very tight and uncomfortable."

A quick google search for salons in Tarzana, CA yielded 127 results, and while Citysearch.com had the salon listed, no one had reviewed it as of Saturday night. Esther told People.com, she didn't charge Brit the usual $20 for her buzz cut, but said, "Now I'm charging $200 for the Brit-Buzz Special!"

Yep, Britney Spears. Shaved. Her. Head.

The girl is officially having a nervous breakdown. There's video, there's photos, there's proof.

Shaved. Her. Head.

She flew back -- in coach -- from Miami (after that debateable 24-hour visit to rehab) to L.A. on Friday, and just a couple hours after landing had shaved. her. head. According to Us, Brit Brit went to Tarzana salon and asked them to shave her head. Obviously, they didn't want to do it. If Britney asked me to shave. her. head. I wouldn't do it either! But the crazy mom tart "grabbed the hair clipper and started doing it herself."

Continuing her path of self-mutiliation, bald Britney then headed over to Body & Soul Tattoo in Sherman Oaks and proceeded to get two tattoos.

Body & Soul employee Emily Wynne-Hughes said a "nightmare" Britney told her, "I don't want anyone touching me. I'm tired of everyone touching me," when she asked her about her new 'do.

Brit's tatts included a "black, white and pink cross on her hip and red and pink lips on her wrist" and cost $80.

This so reminds me of that scene in Empire Records when Deb (Robin Tunney) shaves her head...

What do you think made Britney decide to go bald?

Check out Britney's other most outrageous moments in our slide show.

Done with Kelly Slater already?

Ms. D was seen doing some major canoodling last night with Blood Diamond Oscar nominee hottie, Djimon Hounsou. There was kissing, a little dirty dancing and lots of smiling going on.

Anyone who knows Cam knows that she hasn't been the happiest starlet since her major breakup with Justin Timberlake.

I'd be shocked if Cam and Dji go the distance -- I get the feeling Cameron is going to be getting down with a variety of men before settling down again -- but here's hoping Djimon takes her to the Oscars.
Wouldn't that be fab?

Our friends at Access Hollywood are now reporting that despite numerous reports to the contrary, they've spoken to Britney's rep who said she did not, I repeat not, check into rehab.

Still, I'm telling you, these rumors don't start for no reason. What else was she doing there -- volunteer work?

So tell me what you think: Did she or didn't she check into rehab and do you even care?

Update: Britney checked into Eric Clapton's Crossroads Centre in Antigua a few days ago but left a day later to go to Florida. Nothing has been released as to what kind of rehab she was seeking.

Dear Britney,

If you're going to try that whole publicity stunt where you check into rehab as a way to make amends for recent ridiculous behavior (and by recent we mean the past three years), we're all for it. Hey, if it worked for La Lohan, Nicole Richie and Isaiah Washington, it could totally work for you, too.

Here's the thing: If you're going to do it, you can't half-ass it. Leaking the rumors to the media about checking into rehab was a definite do. Letting the world know you checked out less than a full day later? A definite don't.

Now, go check yourself in to a nice long stay at some ritzy rehab center and don't let us see you out getting fried chicken, dancing naked or driving. Period. For at least a month.

I know you can do it!

Love,
Lindsey

Just as Elizabeth Hurley announced her wedding date to fiance Arun Nayar (it's in March, btw), her longtime ex, Hugh Grant announced some relationship news of his own.

Although rumors had swirled that the perma-bachelor would wed Jemima Khan, his girlfriend of three years, such is just not the case. The pair "split amicably" (right, as if there is any other way for pr peeps to say their clients split).

They were seen together February 12 at the NYC premiere of Hugh's new movie, Music and Lyrics.

Five bucks says Hugh has been gettin' busy with his newly single costar, Drew Barrymore. I could see it. Don't think it will last, but I could see it.

Anna Nicole Smith's will is as unclear as the cause of her death. In brief, here's what ya need to know:

Denise Richards' SUV was side-swiped in Beverly Hills yesterday. Richards was getting Sam, her daughter with Charlie Sheen, out of the Mercedes when a crazy driver clipped her door. A shaken Denise told cameras, "The guy took my door off, I was taking her out on the other side and he took the door off!"

No injuries were reported and Richie Sambora, Richards' rock star flame, showed up an hour later to console the girls.

Rapper Foxy Brown was arrested, again, yesterday for battery and obstruction of justice. Foxy was held on $1,500 bail for the two offenses that occurred in Florida.

Apparently there was some sort of scuffle at a beauty supply store.

Brown must have beef with people in the grooming profession, as she was sentenced last October to three years probation and anger management classes, after assaulting two nail technicians.

She should probably just hire her own people -- maybe Naomi Campbell's maid is looking for a new gig.

Victoria Beckham has unveiled her new denim line of jeans, shorts and skirts.

So annoying.
Like anything that chick designs is going to fit anyone that isn't shaped like a 10-year-old boy.

I literally laughed out loud when I heard about this.

According to Daily Variety, Universal Studios is set to develop a film about the '80s pop duo Milli Vanilli.

For those who weren't born yet when they were around (hate you), Milli Vanilli fooled the world by lip-synching songs by unknown vocalists and passing them off as their own. They had hits like "Blame it on the Rain" and "Girl I'm Gonna Miss You", and actually won a Grammy, which they were later stripped of. The guys were, in reality, models named Rob Pilatus and Fabrice Morvan, who barely spoke english. The sad part, and will no doubt be the climax of the film, is that Pilatus died in 1998 of a drug overdose.

Hey, I was just as fooled as everyone else by their fancy dancing and luscious dreadlocks, but I've seen the VH1 Behind The Music on them and I can't imagine the movie could possibly be any better than that.

Kenny Chesney is denying rumors that the reason for the end of his blink of an eye marriage to Renee Zellweger in 2005 was that he is gay. The couple filed for an annullment, citing "fraud", which sparked tons of speculation about the country singer's sexuality.

The couple had been very hush-hush about what actually happened, but Chesney told 60 Mintues, "It's not true. Period. Maybe I should have come out and said, 'No, I'm not (gay),' but I didn't want to draw any more attention to it. The only fraud that was committed was me thinking that I knew what it was like ... that I really understood what it was like to be married, and I really didn't."

Maybe they should have waited a little while longer before running off to St. John to tie the knot, only four months after first meeting each other.

I know he wrote some song about her, after seeing her in Jerry Maguire, but I sing about my movie crushes all the time and you don't see me registering for a blender with Matthew McConaughey.

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are following in the creepy celebrity (TomKat) trend of Scientology. Sources are reporting that Anthony and Lopez have taken multiple classes at the Scientology's Celebrity Center in Hollywood, including a "purification" course that is supposed to cure all that's ailing you.

There's a lot of talk that Jen and Mark are having fertility issues, and I suppose they are desperate for anything that might help them have a baby Lopez-Anthony. I certainly can't fault them for that, but I really think they should consider going the medical route.

Somehow I can't see a fiery Jen having a silent birth. I always pictured lots of spanish ballads playing the background.

This is for you, Suzy.

"Sometimes you want to take a baseball bat to someone's face. Or maybe their kneecaps - that would probably be more fun. There are some people who might look better if you smacked them in the head with a baseball bat. The music is close to us and we can take it personally when we hear something we don't like."

"I know it sounds pathetic -- I'm a 32-year-old guy -- but my 7-year-old daughter is getting me through the toughest time in my life, and that's beautiful too."

-- Ryan Phillippe to Ellen DeGeneres on his split from Reese Witherspoon

According to PerezHilton.com, Keri Russell and her fiance, Shane, got hitched yesterday -- Valentine's Day -- in New York City. The duo held an intimate ceremony for just over ten friends and family members at the Harrison restaurant in NYC's West Village.

"She looked absolutely amazing...her skin, hair, makeup - it was all perfection," a source told Perez.

The sweethearts are expecting their first child together this spring.

Brit singer Joss Stone is frequently on worst dressed lists for some of her hippy dippy outfits. But she's young, finding her footing, so I always smile at her efforts -- until today.

Check out Joss at the Brit Awards yesterday in London. The hair, the dress, the accessories... The girl is the definition of hot mess.

What a year it has been for TV's favorite Ugly Betty, America Ferrera. Not only is her show a super hit, she snagged a Golden Globe, and now is sportin' a sparkler. The prettiest ugly person we've ever seen has gotten engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Ryan Piers Williams. Apparently, the live-in loves have been engaged for a month and are quietly planning their nuptials.

These two met in film school when America agreed to star in one of his student films. Awww!

Congrats, cutie!

Jim Carrey was at the fab TomKat wedding this summer, but that didn't stop him from telling Time that he thinks Cruise was "last year's big joke" in Hollywood.

Though Carrey was also self-deprecating in the article, pegging himself as possibly "the next Kathie Lee Gifford," we're pretty sure Tom is going to be pissed -- he's such a loon these days.

Heather Mills has freaked over the reports that she will be appearing on the next Dancing With the Stars.
With all the buzz yesturday, Mills' lawyer has told Us Weekly that the rumor was "not true".

Womp, Womp. I was so excited over the abundance of trash we were going to talk about her.

E! is reporting that American Idol Winner Fantasia will be appearing in Oprah Winfrey's production of The Color Purple. She will be playing the role of the abused young woman, Miss Celie. Sources say that Op's is psyched.

My bet is that Fantasia will be phenomenal. Why? Because everything Oprah touches turns to gold.

Yeah they do! Do you think it's too late for me to become an actress?

And I'm sure Jada wasn't trying to rub it in, but when the mag asked her what she found sexy about her husband she gave this quote: "The little curve in his neck that goes into his shoulder, near his collarbone. And I just love his lower abdomen when he's lying down with his arms outstretched and a little piece of his tummy is hanging out. I love that part."

Can't. Breathe.
I think I'll go take a cold shower.

In case you haven't heard yet, which is most probably impossible, Jennifer Aniston is guesting on Courtney's new show, Dirt. There's been a ton of hype about a big kiss between the two, as Jen plays a lesbian rival of Court's.

Well, you can all delete your TIVO settings. Cox told Access Hollywood "If you think it is just about a major make-out session, you will be disappointed."
We hear it is simply a peck.

And there be won't a pillow fight, either.

The "Girls Gone Wild" people have created a clothing line.

That's right. I said clothing line.

Earlier today the shock jock announced to his listeners on his Sirius Satellite radio show that he popped the question last night and Beth said yes.

Howard told the audience that he gave the model a 5.2 carat diamond ring and proposed by saying: "I love you. You're everything to me. This is so gay. ... I'm asking you to spend the rest of your life with me."

The engagement will be a long one -- Howard says they're too busy to get hitched right now. Besides, he's too busy trying to win custody of Anna Nicole Smith's daughter. Oh, wait -- that's the other Howard Stern.

Robyn Troup, who freakin' rocked her winning performance with Justin Timberlake at the Grammys on Sunday, was cut from the Hollywood round on Idol last night! What exactly wasn't smoking hot about her? While singing and dancing the night away with JT, Troup showed strong, likable personality and obvious star quality. And, by the way, America voted her the champ of the "My Grammy Moment" contest.

Note to Idol Producers: I didn't see Anthony Federov at the Grammys bringing "sexy back".

J&J were holding hands and smiling for the paparazzi, a first for the couple who have been dating since last summer. After McCarthy's recent divorce and Carrey's string of celebrity breakups, it's nice to see them happy.

Can you imagine what a day with them would be like? I'm pretty sure I would lose a rib from laughing.

Sultry singer Norah Jones told the British edition of Glamour that she was asked to drop some poundage for her role in the film My Blueberry Nights:

"First I got really mad, then I got nervous, thinking, 'Oh no! I'm fat!. It was a horrible thing to hear but I understand the game. I was just amazed that it really was an issue, and it made me have a lot more sympathy for really skinny actresses. But then, I still think they need to eat a cheeseburger."

And that's just another reason I love being a blogger. I can eat as many cheesburgers as I want.

Perez Hilton is reporting that Kirsten Dunst was seen last night canoodling with Drew Barrymore's ex Fabrizio Moretti of The Strokes. Kirssy and Fab were all holding hands and drinking beer at the Arcade Fire concert in NYC.

There's just no stopping this girl! She has had her claws in every guy, everywhere! And I can't imagine she has many girlfriends in Hollywood, since she's slept with all of their ex-boyfriends.

Fab has definitely gone slumming since his breakup with sweet Drew last month. I always thought Drew could do some much better, anyway. So go ahead, Kirsten -- have all the sloppy seconds you want.

That's the rumor. Sir Paul McCartney's ex, who had her left leg amputated below the knee after being hit by a motorbike in 1993, is supposedly set to shake a tail feather on the hugely popular reality show, Dancing With the Stars. Mills, who has a prosthetic leg, will start training later this year and says she plans to donate the money from the show to the animal charity Viva.

I have no doubt Mills can take the whole competition. Unless America thinks she's a gold digging loon and doesn't vote for her. Or is that just me?

Great news, mystery lovers -- The Hardy Men are coming! Stiller and Cruise will be taking on the roles of supersleuths Frank and Joe Hardy from the '70s detective series The Hardy Boys. The brothers will be all grown up in this action comedy, reports Variety, and the plot will center around the men reuniting, after an estrangement, to solve one last case.

Ben was hilarious in Starsky and Hutch ("Do it"), so I have no doubt he will be funny. Tom, not so much. Eiither way this is sure to bring back old memories of a young Parker Stevenson and Shaun Cassidy, who played the original Hardys. Yum.

The film is scheduled to start production in 2008.

Here's a little ditty to kick off your Valentine's Day:

"I tend to be a bit prudish. I'm a make-out king--I'll kiss anybody--but as far as going further than that, I wanna keep my number down. I don't wanna tell my future wife, "Yeah, I've been with, like, 50 people." But when I'm with somebody, the caveman in me wants it to be completely deviant. Like, "Oh this isn't supposed to go in there? Then that's where it has to go."

How romantic.

This Anna Nicole Smith baby daddy thing is out of control, people!

A fifth man has come forward, saying he could be Dannielynn's baby daddy. So who is he? Anna Nicole's old bodyguard Alexander Denk.

“She always told me she wanted to have her kids with me.”

So is there a possibility Denk is Dannielynn’s father?

“There’s always a possibility,” he insisted.

Who wasn't this lady sleeping with? She would have gotten a ton of valentines on Valentine's Day.

Interesting video footage of Sharon Stone purring and a bunch of other things.

So I just listened to the 911 call made by the Seminole Police Department to Hollywood Fire and Rescue about Anna Nicole Smith and I have to say it's the least urgent 911 call (oxymoron?) I've ever heard in my life.

Hollywood F&R: Hello, fire and rescue.

Seminole PD (ubercasually): Hi, this is Seminole Police. If you could please respond to the Hard Rock, room 607. It is going to be in reference to a white female who is... (To someone in the background: What is she not responsive?) She's not breathing and she's not responsive. She's actually Anna Nicole Smith. If you guys could...

Hollywood F&R: Alright.

Seminole PD: Thank you.

It was like they were chatting about shoes or lunch something. So bizarre.

They tried to make me go to rehab
I said no, no, no.
Yes I been black, but when I come back
You wont know, know, know.
--Amy Winehouse

Robbie Williams, rehab. Rehab, Robbie Williams.
Addiction of choice? Reportedly prescription pills.
Rehab facility? Somewhere in the US.
First timer? Heck no! He was treated for drug addiction in the '90s.

Robbie rehab rumors first began back in September but he was able to hold off for a little while. Here's to a successful treatment.

Um, okay. How 'bout maybe start with one and go from there. The rap/movie star told Ellen Degeneres yesterday that she totally wants to have a house filled with lots of little ones:

"I want to have and adopt. I always have, ever since I was 18 I wanted a baby and I wanted to have and adopt because there are a lot of kids. I want to adopt an American baby though, you know what I mean, no offense. Just because there are so many kids here that need our help. My sister is a social worker, and there are just so many kids that could use a good home. Nothing against going out the country. That's great and I get why a lot of people do it – because of the laws here. I just feel like if I do I would help a kid right [here] in the hood."

I love that Latifah. She's so down to earth and never forgets where she comes from.
Hey Queenie, can you adopt me? I'll totally keep my room clean. Promise.

Doesn't Lindsay have enough trouble in her life? Apparently not. The starlet has just bought a new apartment in West Hollywood that once belonged to the late, great Marilyn Monroe, says Us Weekly.
This would actually be sort of cool, since Lohan has cited Ms. M as one of her idols, if not for the fact that two other past Hollywood glamour girls have lived in the pad -- and each met an untimely death. Heiress Georgette Bauerdorf was found dead in her bathtub at age 20 in 1944, having been strangled, and actress Dorothy Dandridge overdosed on barbituates in 1965.

I don't like it when the former tenants of my place have had pets, much less dead bodies lying around. Hopefully the curse has been broken and Linds will be around for a while. If not, she was warned.

I don't know about you, but I will be first on line for tickets. I love these guys and Sting is as hot as ever. And they have said that they are going to play all Police music, as opposed to sticking in songs from Sting's solo career. Which I am personally psyched about. That's what people want to hear. I hate when you go to a concert of a classic band and they play stuff off their new album. That's when I head to the beer cart.

Okay, maybe I head to the beer cart either way, but you get my point.

People are buzzing that Lance Bass may not be the only gay member of the now-defunct boy band *NSYNC. JC Chasez, former boyfriend of Eva Longoria, had his publicist make contact with a very cute guy at Fashion Week, with hopes of meeting up with him later in the night. The Daily News reported that said gentlemen refused to give his phone number to the ex-boy bander's rep. When the publicist was asked about the encounter he said had no memory of the conversation. Interesting.

Note to J.C.:
Just come out! Who cares? Lance took the bull by the horns. *NSYNC is obviously never getting back together -- Justin is way too famous for you now. Just embrace who you are and then maybe the cute fashion models will embrace you. Know what I mean?

Just when you thought it couldn't get worse than the Surreal Life, Vanilla Ice has been hired by turbotax.com to be the spokesperson for their "Tax Rap Contest," where average Joes like you and me will get the chance to enter their own tax-themed rap for a prize of $25,000.

Now that's some smart marketing. Like tax day wasn't stressful enough, with the getting them out on time and making sure all the papers are signed. Now my rap has to be perfect so I can hang with Vanilla! One can only take so much, I tell you.

Only a few more months before Eva Longoria becomes a real Desperate Housewife. Page SIx is reporting that Eva and San Antonio Spurs hottie Tony Parker have sent out Save the Date cards for their very french wedding on July 7. The couple even sent a reminder that us stupid Americans will need a passport to get to France.

Whew! Good thing she reminded me. Now I'll just have to find a dress.

So I get a message from my dad tonight. He has something to tell me. Urgent. I call him. He has news that he has to break to gently: He's Anna Nicole Smith's baby daddy.

"Everybody else is claiming to be the father. Why not your old man?"

Hilarious -- even funnier if you knew him because he could care less about celebrities... unless it's Jerry Seinfeld because he watched three episodes of Seinfeld a day.

Too bad someone is actually dead in this whole saga. "Guess Anna Nicole's Baby Daddy" would be so much more fun if Anna Nicole was still alive.

Well I'll be... Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn said they will remain friends after their split... and they have! He was a guest at Jen's birthday party -- hosted by Courteney Cox -- over the weekend.

Isn't it just peachy when everyone gets along? Truthfully, I find it dreadfully boring, but I'm trying to be positive. Can't be a bitch all the time.

American Idol sweetheart Kellie Pickler, will have more material for her next set of country ballads. It seems as if her father has had yet another run-in with the fuzz.

Clyde "Bo" Pickler was arrested on three misdemeanor charges after attacking his wife in North Carolina, according to TMZ.com. Kellie's dad just got out of prison, after serving three years for bringing a hatchet to the neighborhood meet and greet.

Okay, he didn't do that-- but he did stab his neighbor.

I can't help but feel bad for the Pickler. No, she can't pronounce salmon or calamari, but she's not a bad person and doesn't deserve to have to clean up her father's mess.

That Lily Allen song -- "Cheryl Tweedy" -- was definitely in my head this morning. After a late night doing Grammy stuff, I so didn't want to get out of bed today. You guys have all heard of Lily, right? Cute little Brit chickadee, who was on Saturday Night Live with Drew Barrymore two weeks ago. I saw her perform Saturday in NYC and she was so fun. While throwing back shots of Jager and stealing a smoke, she busted out some really fun songs about parts of the male anatomy and such. And she had on the biggest girlie-girl dress... with white leather Nikes and a machine gun charm on a chain around her neck.

She was really different from people I've seen lately... and definitely spirited. So check her out if you're feeling it. Or not. I'm not pressing you for a commitment.

Or, as most of you know them as, Sting and the other guys.

The New York Post reports that Paul "roughed up a man" at the bar of the Waverly Inn in NYC. The man was allegedly making "lewd comments" about Jennifer. Paul overheard the exchange and went ape crap, grabbing the dude and throwing him up against a wall.

"Stop trying to f - - - my wife," Paul reportedly said to the man as Jennifer stood by shouting at her husband. "She screamed his name like 15 times."

Paul eventually took the dude outside... but they didn't throw down. The guy -- who was "a little freaked out" -- took off. Paul returned to the restaurant and had dinner with his wife and friends.

Just your average day in the life of a celebrity.

I came across this photo , courtesy of Perez Hilton, of Lauren Conrad's ex, Jason Wahler with Jodie Sweeten, who played Uncle Jesse's niece Stephanie Tanner on the eighties cheesefest Full House. I don't if know this was just a random meeting at L.A. hotspot Area, or these two have a little somethin' brewing, but this can't be good. Jodie's an admitted "former" drug user (you know how hard it is for those child actors) and Jason is not a stellar example of clean living. And I'm pretty sure she's married to a cop. We'll have to keep and eye on these two -- I'm positive they'll end up in some sort of drug bust.

What do you think these two were thinking?

Here’s what I think was going on in each of their heads:

K-Fed: “I’m so much cooler than this guy. I’m better looking, more talented, and one day I’m going to be so much richer than he is. I’m better in the sack, the girls love me more and Britney will never get over me the way she got over him.”

Justin: “Security!”

T.R Knight and some of his other Grey’s Anatomy buddies had a bit of a run-in with, none other than, Sean “Diddy" Combs at the Rolling Stone/Justin Timberlake pre-Grammy party on Friday night, according to Page Six.

Comb's bodyguard reportedly bullied the Grey’s stars out of a few V.I.P tables at Avalon, and according to an eyewitness, the bodyguard wasn’t very gentle. Knight, Sara Ramirez, and Kate Walsh left the tables, but not before T.R. and Diddy had some words.

A rep for the rapper said this never happened. Suuuuuure it didn’t. And Isaiah Washington is an upstanding human being.

So much for Isaac Cohen being a good guy. In an exclusive interview with News of the World , Cohen spills all kinds of intimate details about his short-lived relationship with Brit Brit. Here’s just a glimpse:

"She loves sex and is incredibly adventurous. She was totally happy when we were locked in each other's arms. But once the sex stopped Britney was like a little girl lost, unable to cope.
"She would lie like a limp rag doll in my arms and say, ‘Why can't everyone leave me alone?' and, ‘What have I done to deserve this?'"

He did say a few nice things, but I just felt dirty after reading his interview. TMI

Quentin Tarantino freaks me out.

That's all.

Thanks.

Lionel Richie is singing a solo right now. What year is it -- 1984? Thank god for his daughter... or else we would have forgotten all about the guy.

Thank god little Chris Brown is now spicing things up. Love "Run It." But these little kid dancers are freaky.

Who knew Natalie Coles' voice was so annoying? She has like a baby voice. Never picked that up while listening to "Unforgettable." No wonder that was her only big hit... and stole it from her daddy.

Question of the night: LeAnn Rimes is still famous enough to present at the Grammys?

Discuss amongst yourselves.

Can't say that Mary J. Blige doesn't sing her heart out. Damn! My living room was shaking.

What a set of pipes!

John Legend is talented, but this whole little medley is putting me to sleep.

And with John Mayer now on stage... I just don't get the appeal of this pasty, puffy kid. Just don't get it.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Time for a snack break... or to fold my laundry.

Queenie looks good! The dress, the hair, the make up -- just good stuff all the way around. Has anyone voted for any of the chicas vying to sing with Justin tonight?

--Linds

Meanwhile, I heard Mary J. sing "One" with U2 live at Madison Square Garden in 2005 and it was friggin' amazing. She totally deserves that Grammy. And, boy, does she love those God shout outs. She thanked him like 3 times in her speech.

But I gotta say... she read a thank you list of like 300 names and I don't believe that I heard the names Bono, Adam, Edge or Larry. And don't the boys from U2 deserve some props? She covered their song... and that is one of the best songs on the friggin' album.

Beyonce looks better in her "performance dress." How annoying would it be to change a whole bunch of times through the night into different evening gowns. Unnecessary -- and it just doesn't sound fun. And that flower looks like a giant growth on the side of her head.

But, again, girl can sing. Wow!

Tantric sex obviously works, folks!

On another note, I did download "Irreplaceable" today:
To the left
To the left
Everything you own in the box to the left
At least she has the singing thing to fall back on.

I love Terrence Howard.

I love Terrence Howard.

I love Terrence Howard.

I love Terrence Howard.

He is so cute with his little vest and all. Love him. Clearly.

E! asked her about him and she talked around it -- as expected.

"We have a lot of friends in common, and Justin's a sweetheart, and it's always good to see him," ScarJo said, "but there's a lot of speculation and I try not to read that stuff. I think when two people are single and are seen together, it's immediately like a crazy feeding frenzy."

They're so hot and heavy.

She and Ryan said that Gwen Stefani, Mariah Carey and Sir Paul McCartney are all rumored to be appearing on American Idol this season.

Finally I'm trendy!

A-ha! A-ha! A-ha! A-ha!

What is going on there?

He's a dork. This goes toward celebrity dork theory created by my friend Natalie. She insists that every celebrity was a huge dork in high school. (Think: Tom Cruise.) Then they become famous and... well, they're still dorky.

Which brings me to Ryan Seacrest. Don't you think he fits with the dork theory too?

Holding out for John Mayer to bring Jessica Simpson.

Anna Nicole Smith's BFF/partner Howard K. Stern returned to the Bahamas yesterday where he was reunited with Anna's baby girl, Dannielynn. The New York Post reports that camera crews from Entertainment Tonight and The Insider were there to capture the happy reunion... and interview Howard about Anna Nicole's death.

"This is the only piece of Anna I have left," Howard reported told ET's Mark Stines. "I wouldn't be here now, but I had to get back to Dannielynn. I know Anna loved her more than anything in the world."

That is obvious. From the first time we saw Howard -- on Anna Nicole's reality show -- it was clear that he was a smitten kitten.

Prior to Howard's arrival, Anna Nicole's estranged mother flew to the Bahamas to try to take the child from the care of Howard's mother and sister -- something that didn't sit well with Howard. "Anna despised that woman," Howard said. "As long as I have breath in my body, that woman will not see Dannielynn."

I feel bad for him because he's going to turn out not to be this little girl's father... and he's going to be left with nothing.

Who do you think is the baby daddy? Howard? Larry? Zsa Zsa's husband? J. Howard Marshall II? I so think it's J. Howard Marshall's kid... And if that's the case, maybe Howard could still raise her. We'll have to wait and see.

I'm iTunes obsessed, but there are so many times I'm on it and I want to buy new music but I can't find anything I love. It makes me crazy. I'm constantly craving something new. So this little mapping tool is cool.

What you do is put in a band you love, then it generates the names of other bands with a similar vibe that you make like as well. Then you can also check out news about those bands, info on new releases and stuff like that.

It's Grammy day, so it's a good thing to "get ya in the mood."

So Justin Timberlake may not be bringing Scarlett Johansson as his date to tonight's Grammys -- we won't know until game time -- but you can get a look at their hot chemistry in his new music video. Holy hot makeout sessions!

This entry about Anna Nicole Smith's autopsy proving to be "legally clean" really threw me off. So she was apparently "legally clean," but there were loads of prescription meds in her room when she died. Loads. Like if you went to college campus and collected all the pills in all the frat houses and put them together -- that's what I'm talking about. And whichever doctor prescribed them all to her needs to have his license revoked because it's unbelievable she lived to 39 taking all that crap.

Here are just a few -- courtesy of the New York Daily News -- and what they do:
Methadone: A powerful opiate painkiller, it is in the same drug category as morphine and codeine — often used to help heroin addicts beat their habit. Causes severe drowsiness and can potentially interact with hundreds of other drugs.

Provigil: A secret favorite of pilots and hospital doctors working graveyard shifts, this central nervous system stimulant keeps users alert and awake. Side effects include anxiety, nervousness, depression, irregular heartbeat and dozens more.

Xanax: Prescribed for depression, anxiety disorders and panic attacks — and, occasionally, fear of open spaces — this brain-bending benzodiazepine drug is notoriously habit-forming.

Fentanyl lollipop: A powerful narcotic painkiller often given to cancer patients, especially children. A berry-flavored one sold under the name Actiq sells for about $25 a "pop" on the street.

No wonder she had a private nurse! She was carrying the Walgreens pharmacy around with her.

Okay so we have Howard K. Stern, Larry Birkhead, Mr. Zsa Zsa Gabor and now... Anna Nicole Smith's second husband, J. Howard Marshall. Yep, the newest baby daddy speculation is that Anna Nicole was artificially inseminated with the sperm of her dead husband.

"To her family, she hinted that she had used the old man's frozen sperm, and would be giving birth to Howard Marshall's child," Anna Nicole's sister, Donna Hogan, reveals in the manuscript for her proposed tell-all book about her sister called Train Wreck.

Anyone else want to come forward? The other Howard Stern? George Bush? Your significant other?

Anna Nicole's six-hour autopsy today -- performed by Broward County Medical Examiner Dr. Joshua Perper -- revealed no illegal pills in her stomach. The official toxicology results, however, will not be available for three-to-five weeks.

People.com says the police found no signs of any criminal activity in Anna's hotel room:

"At this point no evidence has been revealed to suggest that a crime occurred. We have found no illegal drugs, only prescription medicines," said Charlie Tiger, Seminole Police Chief. "We are not releasing the names on those prescriptions. We have taken sworn statements from all the parties involved; everyone has cooperated fully."

According to Us, Perper said:

"The autopsy was able to exclude any kind of physical injuries such as blunt force trauma, gunshot would, stab wounds or asphyxia as a cause of death, the contributory cause of death or a hastening cause of death."

I know, not shocking news (seriously how do you top that Zsa Zsa Gabor thing?), but just trying to keep you informed!

Talk about three men and a little lady... Anna Nicole Smith's daughter now has a third man claiming to be her father, and you will never in a bazillion years guess who it is (well, unless you read the headline, in which case your answer totally doesn't count).

Yes, in yet another utterly bizarre twist to the Anna Nicole saga, Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband, Prince Frederick von Anhalt is now saying he had a decade-long affair with Miss Smith and says the baby may in fact be his, according to Access Hollywood.

And this news is just coming out now?? This guy didn't think to pipe up in the last, oh, five friggin' months or so? What possesses someone to say something like this out of the blue. Is it really the money? Last time I checked, Zsa Zsa had enough of it, and we still don't know if Dannielynn is even going to see a penny of anyone's estate.

He says if the infant is turned over to either Larry or Howard, he will sue for paternity. Oh so, if it's someone else's kid then he's not going to sue?

Access spoke to Edward Lozzi, a one-time beau of Anna Nicole's and publicist for Zsa Zsa. "(The Prince's) behavior and history in the past show him to be a chronic fabricator, causing pain and suffering to many around him, including his wife. His claim is embarrassing and ludicrous," he said.

Folks, you seriously cannot make this stuff up. I don't even know what to say. I'm speechless.

In a ruling in L.A. Friday morning, a judge refused to grant an emergency DNA test to prove the paternity of Anna Nicole's daughter, Dannielynn Hope, despite a request by Larry Birkhead, one of the men claiming to be the 5-month-old girl's father.

Anna Nicole's body, however, will be preserved until a hearing on February 20.

According to Access Hollywood, Larry Birkhead's lawyer, Debra Opri, also asked the judge to take custody of Dannielynn, who is currently staying in the Bahamas with a friend of Anna Nicole's. The judge also denied this request.

Outside the courtroom, Ron Rale, a lawyer for Howard K. Stern (who is also claiming paternity of the child), said "It is despicable that we would have an emergency notice and appear right now."

I'm actually really surprised the judge ruled against both requests. In a case this tragic, I would think finding a permanent home for the daughter would be of the utmost importance. Plus, I think waiting to bury or cremate Anna Nicole seems much intrusive than expediting a request for her DNA.

At first, I was a bit confused as to why they needed the mother's DNA to prove paternity, but apparently it has something to do with preventing the baby from being switched with another child. Talk about drama -- geesh.

What do you think? Do you agree with the judge? Were you surprised by the ruling?

The couple have been married since 2004 and this is Baumgartner's first child. Costner has three children from his previous marriage to Cindy Silva. His kids, Anne, 22, Lily, 20, and Joe, 19 should clear their Saturday nights -- looks like they might be doing some babysitting.

Rosie O' Donnell gave Access Hollywood an exclusive statement after the news of Anna Nicole's death:

"So sad. It's unbearably tragic, that poor little baby."

This came after Rosie slammed Smith on the previous morning's airing of The View. O'Donnell commented that she was sick of seeing Smith on television and said that Anna could "hardly even speak now."

Rosie was just doing her job but now she has to live with herself.

Okay, this Anna Nicole Smith stuff is depressing, so let's take a little break, shall we? I asked iVillage's fashionista -- Melissa Kagan, who writes the Fashionator blog-- to give us a little pre-Grammy red-carpet preview of some of the ladies who could be in attendance on Sunday. And because she's fab like that, she did. Whatta gal! So check it out and definitely check out her daily column. It's a bookmarker!

So – the Grammy Awards are this Sunday, and while I’m not HUGE music fan, I do like to watch the red carpet fashions. For the most part – and this is a generalization – the nominees at the Grammy’s dress MUCH WORSE than the nominees for say, the Oscars. Maybe it’s because they are more “creative” – whatever it is they seem to have more fun getting dressed which makes it more fun for me to watch. Here’s who I can’t wait to see.

Mariah Carey – she is bound to look like a train wreck. I know I can count on her to wear something highly inappropriate, ill-fitting and cheesy. Keep up the good work Mariah – you are always good for a laugh.

Beyonce – With the exception of her Vegas act cha-cha look at the Globes (let’s chalk it up to temporary insanity) Beyonce usually looks fab. The girl has got curves and she isn’t afraid to flaunt them. I hope she wears something really bootylicious.

Madonna – I love Madonna – I really do. But she takes herself WAY too seriously which kind of makes me hope she wears something ridiculous – something that will warrant some MAJOR teasing – like the gladiator outfit she wore to last year’s Grammy Awards.

Christina Aguilera – It’s a given that X-tina will wear red lipstick but who knows what she’ll wear on her body. She usually wears slinky nightgowny looks so maybe she’ll switch things up a bit and wear a ball gown or something.

Mary J. Blige – Here’s the thing with Ms. Mary – she can be a bit outrageous – but it WORKS for her. She’s unapologetic and I respect her for it.

Who are you guys psyched to see?

Footage of Anna Nicole's last minutes were captured on video and was sold for $500,000 by Splashnews.

The video shows Smith being wheeled out of the Hard Rock Hotel on a gurney, where paramedics appeared to administer CPR on her twice.

Splash News screened the videotape to potential buyers hours after Smith's death Thursday afternoon.

Debra Opri, Larry Birkhead's lawyer, tells TMZ that they are headed to an emergency court hearing in which they will request a DNA sample is taken from Anna Nicole's body. The lawyer was quoted saying that Smith's death was a "tragedy" and "beyond comprehension", but had no problem keeping her eye on the prize -- proving her client is actually Dannielynn's biological father. She also added that Birkead is "distraught" over Anna Nicole's death, as she was "the love of Larry's life."

CBS News is reporting that illegal narcotics were found in Anna Nicole's hotel room. Police officers were seen carrying out at least eight brown bags, sealed with evidence tape. Prescription meds were also found.

If you're online, you can also post comments in the live chat during the show. So give me a shout out, k?

About a week ago, my friend D told me a story about Carmen Electra making out with Joan Jett somewhere. I totally didn't believe it--not that D is a liar, she's just a celebrity gossip whore (okay, like the rest of us), but she believes it all.
I'm beginning to think she might be right. They could totally just be friends, but I'm not so sure anymore. Carmen stars in Joan's new music video, which is cool, and Wednesday they were seen sitting all cozy together at the Anna Sui fashion show in NYC.
Carmen's got a thing for rockers, no? Prince, ex-hubby Dave Navarro. Maybe it's just freaks that she likes? Dennis Rodman, anyone?
Do you think D is right about this one? Do tell!

I love the Grammys. From checking out what the stars are wearing, to hearing the always-stellar performances, this is one award show that I don’t tend to fast forward through (well, um, maybe except for the Classical awards). That said, this year’s list of scheduled performers is nothing less than spectacular. Besides the obvious, much-anticipated Police reunion , which I’m so excited for I can barely stand it, there are so many others to look forward to. The Grammy people like to keep the actual song performances on the down low, but I’m using my Spidey-sense to guess that those with nominated songs will be said songs come Sunday night. So let’s talk about who’s belting out a tune:

Hollywood’s recent ladies’ man, Justin Timberlake, is scheduled to perform with a contest winner that will be announced live. That has GOT to be good. Even if it’s in an embarrassingly bad way. Yay!

Hopefully we’ll be able to see Christina Aguilera behind her sometimes-humongous hair.

So, Cameron D. hasn’t had a lot to cheer about lately. After her big, splashy breakup with the heartbreaker himself, Justin Timberlake, Cameron had publicly melted down at a Golden Globes after party because J.T. was talking to an another woman.

But it wasn’t like Cam often smiled at the paparazzi out in public. Unless she was on the red carpet, she looked miserable. And there were more than one instance where she went a little cuckoo when a camera flashed in her face. But check this photo out, courtesy of X-17.

Think it’s all an act? Or maybe that whole breadstick analogy wasn't an exaggeration...

Obviously the news of the day is all about Anna Nicole’s death. For now we will have to wait for the autopsy reports to really know what happened, but in the meantime I wanted to say how tragic I think it is.

Though I was never a fan and tended to comment on her bizarre behavior, mostly I just felt she was a sad woman hiding behind this over-the-top image. I never cared how much she weighed, I was more interested in what she was going to do or say when the cameras were rolling. Most recently, being a new mom myself, I can’t even imagine the heartbreak she must have felt losing her son Daniel days after her new baby girl was born.

Maybe Anna couldn’t take the pain anymore and overmedicated by accident, or maybe she wanted to end her pain herself, or maybe nature took its course. It doesn’t really matter now -- it’s just a sad, sad story, and a little girl is without her mom.

I hope this paternity suit is settled quickly and Dannielynn has a loving home to grow up in.

Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner released the following statement regarding Anna Nicole's Death:

"I am very saddened to learn about Anna Nicole's passing. She was a dear friend who meant a great deal to the Playboy family and to me personally. My thoughts and prayers are with her friends and loved ones during this difficult time."

Smith was the Playboy Playmate of the Year in 1993 and had graced the cover four different times in nine years.

TMZ briefly contacted the attorney of Larry Birkhead, the man who says he is the father of Anna Nicole's baby. All she would say is that Larry "is not OK."

In a press conference given this afternoon, it was reported that the Seminole Police Department responded to a call at 1:38pm from Smith's nurse at the Hollywood Hard Rock Hotel. At 1:45pm a bodyguard administered CPR to Smith.

Anna Nicole was treated and transported by paramedics to Hollywood Memorial Hospital.

At 2:49pm she was pronounced dead. The cause of death has yet to be determined. An autopsy is scheduled to begin tomorrow.

Admist rumors that mom Anna Nicole was stabbed to death, committed suicide or drug overdosed, People.com is reporting that Anna's 5-month-old daughter, Dannielynn Hope was not with her mother and is okay. She is in the Bahamas being cared for by Shane Gibson, "a high-ranking Bahamian official who is a close friend of Smith's."

Attorney Ron Rale tells Reuters, "I can confirm that she is deceased. It’s as shocking to me as to you guys... I don’t know anything further. (Her lawyer and husband) Howard (K. Stern) obviously is speechless and grieving.”

According to People, before learning of Anna's death, Rale told the mag, "She hasn't been well the past few days, she's had cold and flu symptoms."

We've heard Anna was DOA when the cops showed up. I wonder if Ron was in the loop at that time.

Anna Nicole Smith died this afternoon, according to lawyer, Ron Rale. She was 39.

Access Hollywood was the first to break the story that Anna had to be runshed to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood, Florida around 2pm Thursday. She died around 3:45pm.

The details are still coming in, but here's what we know so far:

Anna Nicole was found unresponsive in her Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino room in Florida. Access Hollywood reports that EMTs performed CPR and put a tube down her throat.

Local streets were closed off to rush Smith to the hospital, three miles away.

The story also claims Anna's bodyguard was also reportedly visibly shaken at the scene.

A press conference will be held shortly outside of the Memorial Regional Hospital. We'll keep you posted.

Brody Jenner and his new best bud, K-Fed? They might be the lamest boy band ever -- if they could sing (yes, I know that you "rap," Kev).

Anyway, beware ladies. These two famous-for-no-reason dudes were on the prowl last night, heading into Privilege, according to X-17. Though Brody J did have a pretty lady on his arm, one might think the gentlemen make quite the cute couple all by themselves.

On second thought, nah, Brody's way too cute for Kevin.

Let me just say this: If a guy ripped my heart out by breaking our engagement, let me deal with breast cancer by myself and then came 'round asking me to to go for a bite to eat, I'd tell him to BITE ME. I don't care how many races he's won -- or if he is Lance Armstrong.

Apparently Sheryl Crow doesn't feel the same way. The twosome, who had a bitter breakup last year, were spotted dining at their favorite eatery in California and just happen to be staying at the same hotel that night, though in different rooms. Suuuuure.
I wonder how long it took Lance to come a knockin'.

Come on Sheryl, you're gorgeous and talented and smart! Or so I thought.

I'll admit it: I’ve always liked Mandy Moore. Okay, maybe not when she was singing those bubble gum tunes in the late ’90’s, but since she has decided to go the acting way. I always found her believable and cute. I even love that commercial for the Diane Keaton movie, Because I Said So, where she says, “I am asking for it!”

So to hear her say that she isn’t a size 2 and is okay with it, just makes me love her more. She tells Seventeen in the March issue, "I'm not like a toothpick, and I never will be. I'm just a regular-looking person – and that's okay. It's taken a while to come to grips with that since it's definitely not the norm in my business. But like, who cares?”

I know, I know. Plenty of Hollywood starlets who aren’t Nicole Richie thin say things like this, but I happen to believe Mandy.

Though now she's spending time with Richie's ex, DJ AM, Mandy also opened up about her breakup last year with Zach Braff and how, like all of us, she was very depressed after they split. “It was a really intense and emotional year, and I was like, I'm gonna put all my feelings in a box and worry about that later. But sooner or later you have to deal," she revealed. So Mandy recorded a new CD, which comes out May 8, and spilled her guts.

And you know what? I like her so much I may even listen to someone else's copy.

This story is close to my heart, having grown up in Brooklyn myself. It seems as if MTV is casting for a new reality pilot, taking place at Brooklyn Tech High School in Fort Greene. They will be looking for sophomores and juniors, a la Laguna Beach ladies, Kristin and L.C.,
to follow around, documenting every minutia of their daily lives.
I can't imagine how they are going to promote this one. As I recall my days in a B-town high school, there were very few bikini clad trips to Cabo, but I guess this is MTV's shot at redemption for all the fluff they've been airing lately. The network has been getting some major flack, as of late, for their current teenage reality indulgence, Maui Fever, which basically portrays the residents of the island as a bunch of tourist-macking horn dogs. Brooklyn, which is the working title of the new show, will be going for another angle, highlighting the intelligence and diversity of the young set.

It makes sense to me, as I remember it, Brooklyn Tech was always regarded as the “smart” high school.

And, no, I didn’t go there.

Hey there --
I’m Tracy and today is my first go ’round blabbing alongside my girl, Suzy. I’m absolutely stoked to be here and can’t wait to give you all the scoop there is to dish. I know Suzy gave you a quick rundown on our past together but trust me -- she definitely liked Jack Wagner waaaay more than me! So grab a cup of whatever gets you going in the morning (for me it’s gallons of anything coffee related) and let’s get to it!

My work is never done... so it's time to have a helper. A partner. A right-hand woman. A co-blogger.

I'm so, so happy to introduce Tracy Pepey into the Daily Blabber mix. I've known Tracy for over eight years -- we used to work together at Soap Opera Digest and spend endless hours discussing Jack Wagner and General Hospital and... Jack Wagner. We instantly bonded over our embarrassing childhood crush... though she liked him waaay more than I did. I swear!

Needless to say, Tracy loves celeb gossip as much as I do. And, as a married mommy not ridiculously obsessed with, say, Brandon Flowers, Adrian Grenier and Kate & Pete, I know she'll bring a fresh view and voice to Daily Blabber.

The even better news is that with Tracy onboard there's going to be much more Blabbin' going on. This starts with live blogging the Grammys on Sunday! Hip hip hooray! And fear not, "my gal Friday" Lindsey will still be popping in now and then to put in her two cents. There's no way to shut us up!

So... without further ado... meet Tracy.

And, for your amusement, here's a photo of us in my first office. It was a huge day. I think we shut the door, high-fived each other and did a dorky little happy dance... not able to believe we were being paid to watch TV all day and write about celebrities.

Life was good then... and it’s even better now.

Welcome, Trace!

According to Perez Hilton, Britney Spears was trying to score tickets to Justin Timberlake's show at the Garden tonight. Shouldn't be a problem -- she's Britney! She also apparently has some reunion scheme up her sleeve. Funny -- I bet he'd consider reuniting with her... if she didn't have two kids under two, two failed marriages and a problem with la panties.

So for now I'm sure he'll stick to the girls with less baggage -- like ScarJo and Jessica Biel.

Good luck, Brit! You'll need it.

So Britney Spears is all over the news this morning... and it is juicy, folks.

First, the lame news -- she and her boyfriend Isaac Cohen have split -- again. OK! is reporting he dumped her and it took place via telephone. As I used to say when I was a freshman in high school: care shmare.

Now, the spicy dish... In Touch is reporting that Britney is waaay into threesomes and hooking up with girls.

An insider who knows the couple well says that over the course of a night, Britney would often disappear into a bedroom with her girlfriends. “Sometimes it was three girls, and sometimes there were more like six,” the insider says. “I heard about her being with girls at least 20 times while they were married.”

Okay, so I can see that. That's what Lindsey and I thought when she was getting her breasts massaged by Paris Hilton briefly friends with Paris Hilton. But, according to In Touch, Kevin Federline plans to use Britney's secret sex stories and drug use in his battle to get custody of their two sons, Preston and Jayden.

"She has told Kevin more than once that she is sexually attracted to women and men equally," says the pal. "He wants to show that she's not such an angel after all."

And who exactly thought the girl was an angel? I want a show of hands. Oh, nobody? That's what I thought.

Eyes: "The upper lids look elevated, giving her a more youthful appearance," New York City surgeon Geoffrey W. Tobias tells Us, speculating that Simpson opted for Botox injections or fat injections to lift her lids.

Nose: "Her nose is narrower," says NYC plastic surgeon Zachary Gerut. Adds Tobias, "She could have had a little thinning of the nose while leaving the profile intact."

Lips: "I had that Restylane stuff," Simpson told Glamour last year. "But...my lips are back to what they were. Thank God!" Tobias thinks otherwise: "Her upper lip is a bit bloated, an effect of collagen or Restylane."

After seeing what her sister did to her face, I think there are no limits for these two.

Interesting little tidbit in the New York Daily News this morning... I guess we shouldn't be feeling bad for Cameron Diaz about the whole Justin Timberlake split.

Justin Timberlake isn't the only one enjoying the single life. Cameron Diaz was at Cut in the Beverly Wilshire Hotel Monday night, "with a girlfriend and drinking wine for more than three hours," says an L.A. spy. The friend then asked a pointed question about her new beau, surf champ Kelly Slater. "Cam grabbed a breadstick to demonstrate. She was in great spirits and kept twirling her hair," says the witness. The breadstick was 9 inches long, if you were wondering.

I keep wondering why Justin Timberlake is so hot right now... then I keep writing about him, feeding into this JT overexposure thing. But what the hell...

According to Page Six, Justin Timberlake – who will be performing at Madison Square Garden this week -- has reportedly tapped Saturday Night Live's "It" boy, Andy Sanberg, to appear with him onstage and sing their hilariously funny SNL hit song "D--k in a Box" live during Justin's show.

Justin's rep wouldn't confirm or deny the duet but said, "There may be a lot of surprises at Justin's show."

Speaking of... I never thought I'd have friends of mine telling me how rockin' a Justin Timberlake concert is. (Really? The dorky kid from Backstreet Boys, 98 Degrees, N Sync?) But I keep hearing it. Maybe he really has brought sexyback. One of my sisters -- who ain't Timberlake material -- kept singing that song over and over for an entire weekend. I don't even think she knew who Justin was before that.

And for the four of you who haven't seen "D--k in a Box" yet, check it after the jump. It's still funny the fourth time.

Drew Barrymore split with Fabrizio Moretti not too long ago and says she loves the single life... but she may not be single for long.

At the Saturday Night Live after party over the weekend, Drew -- who hosted the show -- spent a lot of time chatting up one Zach Braff. According to Page Six, the duo "were very into each other."

While some say they are "definitely dating," Drew's paid liar rep says that there is no romance at that they're "simply friends."

What do you think? Do Drew and Zach make a cute couple? And, as Lindsey and I discussed yesterday, how does the Scrubs star get all the girls? Would you play doctor with him?

You probably got enough slutty socialite sex with Paris Hilton's porn, but if you're after some more, Paris's loser BFF Kim Kardasian -- who dated Nick Lachey for 5 minutes last year and doesn’t want anyone to forget it -- has a new sex tape out. In the home video, she's doing the nasty with Brandy's little brother, Ray J.

Suddenly that Screech sex tape ain't sounding so bad.

"No matter what my dad is saying in the press, Griffin was not trying to start a fight with him; he was attempting to protect Redmond. I'm sure when the police sort out the facts, the truth will be revealed."

Yet again sleazy Sienna Miller is lapping up Kate Moss's leftovers.

According to the NY Daily News, the actress professional undresser was seen on Saturday making out in the lobby of her NYC hotel with British musician Jamie Burke. Jamie's a "musician" but does better at his side gig as a professional "famous chick chaser," having hooked up with Kate Moss, Lindsay Lohan and Courtney Love in the last year or so.

Truth be told, Sienna could hook up with the nicest guy in the Hollywood and I'd want to talk smack about her because she's just so insufferable. And, on the bright side, I guess this is better than her hooking up with new daddy Diddy!

That means by May his peeps will be drawing up the divorce documents. Have they heard of the reality TV couples curse?

Maybe the big boobs made her lose her balance?

Although I'm a klutz and am always biting it, I can't pass on this opportunity to tell you Tara Reid's embarrassing story from over the weekend. She was down in Miami for the Super Bowl (she loves footballers!) and tumbled off the red carpet onto the sand at the Ocean Drive Magazine/Market America on Saturday. But instead of laughing it off -- or blaming her shoes (as I tend to do) -- the hot mess blamed her friends.

"They were at least 5 feet away from her but she yelled 'You guys f-g tripped me,'" a source told the NY Daily News. Everyone was speechless."

This makes me flashback to when Ashlee Simpson was caught lip-syncing on Saturday Night Live and blamed her band. Then she switched her story and said it was acid reflux. Then she finally 'fessed up to lip-syncing.

Accept responsibility, ladies. Nobody likes to be blamed for something they didn't do... even if blaming someone else makes you look like less of an ass.

At a Super Bowl after party in Miami, Justin met up ScarJo and they spent the night "talking, dancing, holding hands" and looking all cozy says Page Six.

"Then, as they left through the back, Justin was leaning against the wall and Scarlett came up, leaned into him and did a sexy, little dance, grinding into his body."

Can't wait to see what Jessica has in her playbook... I'm sure she has another big tackle in her yet.

And I gotta say that I just can't believe that this dorky kid is such a hot commodity. Is it just me?

Page Six reports that Dave originally tried to get Donald Trump and Rosie O'Donnell to appear in the ad with him, but the Donald shot him down.

Get this -- Ryan O'Neal is saying that he fired a gun at his son Griffin in self-defense because Griffin was trying to whack him with a fireplace poker.

Ryan told the LA Times that when he arrived home Sunday -- after celebrating sometime girlfriend Farrah Fawcett's 60th birthday and the fact that she's now cancer-free -- Griffin, who was visiting the house, grabbed a fireplace poker and started swinging it, grazing him numerous times.

He "aimed at my head, I ducked, he hit his own girlfriend in the head," Ryan told the paper. "I got a little nervous at that point and fled to my room... and I got my gun." When Griffin chased him up the stairs, Ryan "fired it into the banister, and that scared him and he fled."

This makes me flashback to my lively household growing up. My sisters and I would seriously get into it over such important matters as the prettier Barbie, scratched 45s and items of clothing that we helped ourselves to instead of, say, asking to borrow. Thank god we didn't have a fireplace -- or, ya know, guns! -- or our battles definitely could have taken a O'Neal-like turn.

According to People.com the baby is due this summer... and he or she may or may not get one of those kiddie Corvettes that looks like the one Steve Sanders drove on the show. License plate: 18A-4RE.

You so know this kid is going to have 90210 playdates with Tori Spelling's baby-to-be, Jennie Garth's kids and Brian Austin Green's son. Cheesy cuteness.

Jennifer Aniston was out over the weekend at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. Why should you care? Well, it's the first time she's showing off the schoz since her latest nose job.

So what do you think? Improvement? Is it worse? Can't even tell? Talk back.

Apparently the gentleman raging maniacs have a history of behaving badly. Star rag says Ryan knocked out Griffin's two front teeth after getting into a brawl when Griffin was 14. Griffin has his own history with the po-po. He spent 18 days in jail for not performing community service stemming from a reckless boating accident in '86 that killed the son of director Francis Ford Coppola.

No word on what caused the beef... Maybe Griffin is bitter over a Christmas gift his dad gave him... or didn’t give him. Maybe he wanted his dad to appear on Surreal Life and call him on the phone so that he could get a cameo. Who knows. Doesn’t sound like a fun family to hang with.

Anyway, yesterday he was snapped in front of the Shore Club in Miami – he’s there for the Super Bowl -- talking with an unidentified woman. According to a photographer who took the pic, when Taye realized he was being photographed, he approached photogs "stating he couldn't be seen with her and asked if we had pictures of them touching one another."

Sounds like he doesn't want his wifey to hear what he's been up to. Too late!

They made it through cancer, but not his reported infidelities. Poor Kylie.

Nicole Richie might be tiny, but we know she's mighty, too. And I'm betting she is mighty mad at Mandy Moore. First Mandy steals DJ A.M. -- the guy that Nic always goes running back to when one of her flings doesn't work out -- and now this...

Mandy tells Seventeen:

"Oh, God! I tell you what: In this industry it's my job to look a certain way or whatnot - and it's' weird for men too. But I'm much happier to present this type of person. I'm not Nicole Richie. I'm not like a toothpick, and I will never be. I'm just a regular-looking person - and that's okay. I's taken a while to come to grips with that since its' definitely not the norm in my business. But, like, who cares? If anything, that makes someone more special -- or at least that's what I tell myself."

I'm so checking Nicole's MySpace page for retaliation.

Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!

Ryan Reynolds and Alanis Morissette have called it quits -- again, and are ending their engagement. But this time they say it's official. The pair, who have been engaged since 2004, also split in June but reunited in July.

Now, no one get any ideas, Mr. Van Wilder is all mine. Write that down.

Gabrielle Union swears up and down that she's not dating Jessica Biel's ex, Yankee superstar Derek Jeter. Which you know, totally means she is.

"Trust me, if I were dating Derek Jeter, I would hold my own personal press conference to announce it to the world," the Bring It On star told People. "I'm actually getting a little nervous about when our fake breakup is coming... My mom asked me if he was coming for Easter, I said, 'Mom! I barely know him."

Gaby, while we appreciate your candor, why draw all this attention to someone you're not dating?

I give these two two months to come out of the closet with their real relationship. What do you think? Is she telling the truth?

Bring it...

mysticambersmmiles. Congrats for being the first to comment with the correct answer in yesterday's Name That Quote contest. It was Linds' dad, Michael Lohan who wrote the following to his daughter while she was in rehab (and he was in prison):

"My heart is with you sweetheart and so am I. Always was and always will be, to the very end. We are one soul inhabiting two bodies. Two in kind. I feel your love, the pain and your presence as I hope you do mine.

I can't wait for the day to hold you, look in your eyes and reap the joy we sowed with our tears. Until then, know that God is with you, and so am I."

Keep reading for the entire letter Michael sent to In Touch...

According to PageSix.com, Paris Hilton has reportedly been getting to the set of her movie, The Hottie and the Nottie, late and can't learn her lines. "Everyone is really fed up with her right now," said a tipster for the tab.

Who here is surprised? Raise your hand. Anyone? Bueller?

Mmm, k. That's what I thought.

In Paris' defense, her producer Hadeel Reda claimed, "I think people are going to be shocked at how good she is."

Hahahahah. That's the funniest thing I've heard all morning. Granted, it's only 8:13, but I think that'll stick until at least noonish.

Does anyone think Paris really will "shock" us with her mad acting skillz?

When Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise were preggers with baby Suri (who we still find quite cute, though we hate to admit it), a seemingly brainwashed Katie called everything "exciting" and "amazing."

Apparently, someone hooked her up with a thesaurus because in her first interview since the infamous TomKat nuptials in November, Katie's learned some new words, which she put to good use in the March issue of Harper's Bazaar. Now she's all about the "wow," the "beautiful," and the "definitely."

We'd say Kate's BFF Posh (who guest-edited Katie's fashion shoot) gave her the new vocabulary, but let's be honest, she probably thinks "thesaurus" is the new Botox.

See Katie's new words for yourself:

On married life:
"I have a husband and children that I adore. I have a career that I really love. When I sit back and reflect, it's – wow!"

Let's go back around December of 2005. Rumors were rampant that Jessica Simpson, who had just split with Nick, was doing dating practically every single dude in Tinseltown. From Adam Levine to Jared Leto, no guy, it seemed was safe. (Remind us again how she's now seeing John Mayer?!?).

No guy, including, reportedly, her very married costar in the Dukes of Hazzard, Johnny Knoxville. The Jackass star has been married to his wife, Melanie since 1995. According to Us, the couple, who has a 10-year-old daughter, has officially separated, and infidelity is said to be the cause.

"How do you live knowing that your husband leads a separate life... and is sleeping with other women all the time? She deserves every penny if she is going to divorce him," a source told the mag.

What do you think? Is Jess to blame?

This is just too darn funny not to share. Upon hearing about the Fedster's Super Bowl commercial, the president of Taco freaking Bell dropped him this note:

How cute that they're trading off on the pregnancy thing? I bet tons of ladies would like to do that with their baby daddies. No, honey -- it's your turn to deal with the nine months of swollen ankles, barfing and extra weight.

Can we say damage control?

Two days after Pete and Kate had their “spiritual wedding” in Thailand on New Year's Day, Petey hooked up with some tourists and went back to their room in a dingy youth hostel to shoot up. The girls -- real sweethearts -- taped the whole incident and sold the footage to The Sun. So you can actually watch the musician sitting on a bed getting his needle on -- over and over. In one shot he is reportedly on the phone with Kate telling her everything was "fine" and that he loved her.

This is just another sad chapter in the ongoing love affair of two of the UK's most popular personalities. But I've written the same stories about him week after week -- arrested! fight! relapse! arrested! fight! relapse! -- that I'm growing tired of it and wonder how these headlines can actually be called "news" anymore when they're daily occurrences.

I may have to retire my Pete and Kate stories for a now. I just can’t stand him now. Apparently Kate can't either. Another report says she's distancing herself from him right now to save her career. I guess the whole "stand by your man" thing isn't as easy when your man is a crackhead.

Dude, don't call Tyra Banks fat -- she isn't having it.

While taping an episode of her talk show, The Tyra Banks Show, Tyra came out in front of her studio audience wearing the bathing suit that prompted headlines like "Tyra Porkchop" – and showed how a bad camera angle can "add weight" in a photo. Then she proceeded to go a little ape crap -- it an okay way -- raging against anyone who has ridiculed someone for their weight.

Part of the clip is above -- minus the final line in which she tells the name callers to "Kiss my fat a--."
