I contemplated tackling him when he walked by, so I could rough him up and get some finale secrets, but I thought better of it. He's slightly bigger than me.

I guess I can wait two weeks.

In the past year, a number of big Hollywooders have decided to come out, including Lance Bass, T.R. Knight, Doogie Howser and Isaiah Washington. Just kidding about that last one.

Here's hoping that one day soon these declarations don't make headlines.

The lady with the golden pipes, Christina Aguilera, has been working on a signature scent to sell to the masses, but it's not going too well, according the latest market research.

The Daily Mirror says that Xtina's new fragrance, aptly titled Simply Christina, has not been getting the best reviews from recent testers. Consumers are calling it "tacky" and a member of one London panel said, "The packaging looked cheap and we went away unimpressed."

I realize the powerhouse has recently changed her image from sexy little vixen to mature glamour puss, but maybe she should have just stuck with her old look and named the perfume "Dirrty" -- then nobody would be disappointed.

Why, why, why? Why would a parent do this to a child?

That's Celine Dion and her son on the cover of Hello. Rene Charles is six-years-old and, I'm sorry, but in those six long years Celine must have had a free afternoon to get this kid to a barber. He has a cute enough face, but with those locks, I bet even he's confused which bathroom to use.

Note to Celine: Now that your Vegas run is almost over, please take over your boy for a haircut -- Because You Loved Him.

It was looking like Carrie Underwood had it all. In the last few months the former American Idol winner has won a boat-load of Grammys and Country Music Awards, has a very catchy little ditty on pop radio, about getting back at her cheatin' man, that I love to belt out in my car--

I dug my key into the side
Of his pretty little suped-up four wheel drive
And carved my name into his leather seats

-- And had snagged one hot football player in Dallas Cowboys' Tony Romo. But it seems that Carries' good luck streak may be coming to an end.

According to the National Enquirer, Tony has told Carrie that he needs some time without the songstress, blaming the looming football season.

“Carrie thought that they were moving closer to a more committed relationship,” a source tells the tab. The QB had asked Carrie to give him space for his career once before, and she did, but this time, she's not having it, says the source, who adds, “Carrie wants a firm commitment from Tony.”

Break out the Louisville Slugger, Carrie!

Kudos to Nicole Richie for going on Ryan Seacrest's morning radio show to address just some of the millions of stories swirling around her. From her recently-rumored stay in rehab, to her pal Paris' upcoming slammer time, to her big barbecue that landed guest Mischa Barton in the ER, Nicole says, well, what she feels like, on the subjects.

TMZ has the whole interview, but here's just a taste of what Nic had to say:

On if Paris is nervous about jail: "Wouldn't you be?...Of course she is."

On possible facing her own time in the slammer for her DUI arrest:
"Everything is possible at this point...I'm nervous, but I understand that I have to deal with whatever consequences come my way, and I take responsibility."

On pal Lindsay Lohan's recent downfall:
"I haven't talked to her...she was at my barbecue, but I didn't see her...I saw Mischa, but I missed Lindsay...I think she was there for 5 minutes."

On rumors that she was back in rehab:
"I hadn't been photographed in a couple of weeks...people were wondering where I was...the truth was, I was on tour with [boyfriend] Joel [Madden]. I don't have any plans to go back [to rehab]. Hopefully I won't ever have to go back."

Now that American Idol has ended, babbling judge Paula Abdul has to find something to blather on about. Her topic of choice -- how badly she has been treated by her former rep, Howard Bragman.

In a tape Page Six got their hands on, Paula bitches, moans and sobs to a group of publicists about the unfair treatment she's had to put up with.

"I've never been treated this way and I've never seen anybody treated this way. This is just too much to stomach," she wailed on the phone call. "I've been going through tremendous amounts of a difficult time," Paula said.

The newspaper reported last week that Paula's recent mishap of tripping over her dog and breaking her nose was a made up story, and the truth was that the singer actually threw a glass against the wall and a shard of it cut her face.

Paula went on in her "poor me" speech to say that her former rep did his best to undermine her confidence.

"I do a call-in every week for OK! Magazine on 'American Idol.' Because of my brilliant job, they want to do a cover on me. I'm being told by Howard Bragman that I'm too old and no one will ever want to do a cover," she cried. "I'm being tested. All I've ever wanted in my life is to be treated fairly and be treated with kindness. And I've never in my entire career been treated this way. The people who are supposed to take care of these things do not. I have to clean up after them everywhere they go. And I'm tired of it."

But here's the best line of the phone call:
"I don't understand how this man can call me a whining bitch. I've never in my life been called a whining bitch and a loser."

Um, really? Are you hearing yourself right now? Please, please, Paula. Just take a nice long vacation, on a quiet little island, and, for God's sake, pull yourself together!

Ugly Betty's Vanessa Williams says she's been the victim of a dognapping.

On Monday, the actress left her Westchester County, New York, home to drop off her son at a Memorial Day parade. When she returned soon after, her 1-year-old Yorkshire terrier -- that she left in her gated yard -- was missing. Vanessa told a local news reporter that she had noticed an unfamiliar car along her private road and thinks the driver was the alleged 'napper.

Since the incident, the mother of four, who is on summer hiatus from her hit show, has been circulating fliers about puppy Enzo's disappearance. She also promised a reward for the safe return of the pooch -- no questions asked.

If Wilhelmina Slater had her dog stolen, the suspects would be endless. But Vanessa Williams? The Pro-Activ pitchwoman seems nice enough. She's even friends with her ex-husbands! Who would be mean enough to steal her dog?

Old Bible-toting Paris is putting on a brave face for the public, but inside she is melting down about her upcoming stay in Hotel de Steel Bars.

Though the heiress has been seen out an about in the last week, partying with friends and family, People reports that Paris is slowly losing it.

"Paris hasn't been eating at all and her parents and friends are beyond worried about her," a source told the mag. "She breaks down crying a lot because she just can't deal with the reality and the pressure of everything that is happening."

And though she's been seeing her pals and trying to live her regular fancy life, Paris is absolutely dreading her upcoming jail time.

"She's been having such a tough time with it all despite her going out with friends and going shopping," the source says. "She just does that to keep her mind off things and to try and stay as normal as possible right now."

At least she has her fam on her side.

"Her biggest support has been her family – her parents without a doubt," says the source. "She talks to them a million times a day and they are doing everything they can to make sure that she comes out of this okay."

No doubt she's freaking out. I would be too if all of my luxuries were about to be taken from me -- and my luxuries consist of visiting the local Super Stop and Shop and watching One Tree Hill on SoapNet.

"Both are ways to make a good dishonest living."

Sadly, this story leads me to believe that I can say "Bye, Bye, Bye" to any hopes of an *Nsync reunion.

Justin Timberlake continues his reign as the Prince of Pop with a new record label all his own. JT has partnered with Interscope Records to launch Tennman Records, and will serve as chairman and CEO on the label.

"I cannot wait to introduce the world to my new discoveries," Justin said in a statement.

My hope is that Justin signs Britney -- and that's where the happily ever after comes in.

Super Dad of the year, Kevin Federline and king of the "Yo Momma" jokes, Wilmer Valderamma, had a meeting of the minds this weekend in Las Vegas club, when they "chilled out together and insisted on rapping along to every song played."

The new dream team were so taken with each other, a witness says, the boys talked about collaborating in the future. "K-Fed invited Wilmer to be involved with his next album," the source told the Daily News.

Oh, goodie. Maybe Wilmer can be the godfather to Kevin's next set of children.

I love parties -- love to throw them, love to go to them, love them in general. And admittedly so, I had a small get together of the long weekend with some pals. We had a some fruity drinks a la my friends Pumpkin and Mellen, and ate some burgers and dogs. And I did send an evite to let everyone know the details.

Unfortunately, my invitation was not quite as colorful as the one Nicole Richie sent out to her friends. Us Weekly confirmed that this is what Nic's email said:

"Let's glorify this day in your sluttiest tops and your tightest pair of tsubi jeans, even though we have no...clue what Memorial Day really means!!...There will be a scale at the front door. No girls over 100 pounds allowed in. Start starving yourself now. See you all then!!!"

Maybe that's why Nicole's pal Mischa Barton had to be rushed to the hospital from the backyard gala -- she was starving and had lost circulation from her tight pants!

Obviously Nicole says she was only kidding in her invite. Her rep insists:

“This invitation was sent via email to her friends who understand that she was responding in a joking manner to the constant untruths printed about her in the media. Her reference to Memorial Day was in no way meant to offend anyone but was simply an expression of her distaste for the current situation.”

At least the girl has a sense of humor, though I worry she might break in half if she laughs too hard.

"Lindsay admitted herself to an intensive medical rehabilitation facility on Memorial Day. Because this is a medical matter, it is our hope that the press will appreciate the seriousness of the situation and respect the privacy of Lindsay as well as the other patients receiving treatment at the facility."
-- Lindsay Lohan's spokesperson

Okay, so we here at the Blabber are going to layoff la Lohan until she's out of rehab and back in fighting shape. Get well soon, Lindsay! Our job wouldn't be half as fun without ya.

Sad but true: I sorta live for when Britney Spears updates her official website with her letters of truth. I read them and reread them... then ask other people what they think.

It sounds pathetic, but it's part of my job, y'all! I get paid to check in on Britney every day.

So earlier today Brit posted a new letter... and I've been waiting all damn day for someone to transcribe it so I could post it. (It's in flash, so you can't copy it. And I so wasn't going to retype it. I have standards, people!) Anyway, after the jump is the whole letter courtesy of UsMagazine.com.

Adam Levine of Maroon 5 fame is a good-looking guy. Just ask Jessica Simpson, Kirsten Dunst, Maria Sharapova, Paris Hilton, Vanessa Minnillo and the slew of other Hollywood ladies that he's been linked to.

And I admit -- begrudgingly -- that I was into him when his big album, Songs About Jane, hit. For a minute or two I wanted to be the girl with the broken smile, who had the guy waiting in pouring rain. Ya know?

But since he became the Hollywood "It" boy -- and I've had to hear him whine about all the gossip about him (and he does whine when he talks), I'm just not so into him. And his supershort haircut isn't helping matters. It just makes him look skinnier than he already is... and he was manorexic to start with.

So I'm over it. I think he's lost his sexy. But what do you think?

Well here's a headline you don't want to read:

Bobby Brown Dating Again

Apparently Whitney Houston's ex-husband is back to his "bachelor ways." Here's hoping none of us ever run into the lothario at a club. I can just imagine what his "bachelor ways" are like.

I need to take a shower.

Lindsay Lohan has landed a summer movie sequel -- it's called Rehab: Take Two.

According to People.com, Lindsay Lohan has checked back into rehab.

"She's doing the best she can," the source close to Lindsay tells the mag.

Let's hope this attempt to get sober is more successful than her first. As you may remember, in January the actress spent time in a facility called Wonderland. She was treated for a month, but she was frequently seen out and about, shopping with friends or tooling around LA in her Benz.

Yep, the same one she crashed over the weekend when she got her DUI.

For this rehab stint, Lindsay is changing things up a bit and she's doing the time at the famed Promises Malibu.

Hmm... wonder if she'll be sleeping in Britney's bed.

PS: And don't you think Brit’s breathing a h-u-g-e sigh of relief that Lindsay Lohan and Mischa Barton stole the spotlight over the weekend? There's a little less attention on the Britster, who seems like an angel compared to the other two.

"We went to this club called Les Deux [in Los Angeles recently], and that was really fun until Linsay Lohan arrived and had us thrown off our table, I know shes a huge star an all, and famous people deserve to sit down especially when they've been working so hard, but whatevs. Linday our thoughts are with you as you go through this difficult time in your life ( she got arrested this weekend ) in the words of Timbaland and Timberlake ' what goes around...' "

Miss Japan took home the title of Miss Universe on last night's show, but our own Miss U.S.A., Rachel Smith, put on her best "I've completely humiliated myself" face, after falling on her beauty queen butt in the evening gown portion of the competition.

She somehow made it to the finals anyway (note: most of the judges were American), proving coordination is not a prerequisite in becoming Miss Universe -- which means I still have a shot.

The people at MTV are on edge since Cameron Diaz, Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are all going to be at the big Movie Awards this weekend. It will be the first time Jessica and Cam have been in each other's presence since Cameron melted down at a Golden Globes after-party in January, after watching Justin make nice to Jess.

A source told Page Six, "Everyone is determined to keep Cam and Jess far apart," though Justin has yet to spill if he and Jessica will be walking the red carpet together.

"It's becoming a big deal because the girls both want very separate arrival times," said the spy. "Nobody knows who Cameron is going to bring, if anyone. But if Jessica walks with Justin, Cameron will want to bring a date. If Jessica goes alone, Cam will probably walk alone. It's a mess."

Apparently the later you walk the red carpet, the bigger the star you are, and Cameron, who is accustomed to being at the top of the A-list, wants to avoid the "humiliation" of having an earlier arrival time than Jessica.

"Cam is used to being more high-profile than Jessica," the paper's source said. "But now that Jessica's dating Justin, she has more leverage. Cameron's looking a little unstable lately."

Maybe Cam can bring her new freaky boyfriend Criss Angel, and he can put a spell on everyone so that they can only see her.

UGH! Cameron has become so irritating, so fast.

You won't be seeing Rosie O'Donnell on The View today -- or ever again for that matter.

The outspoken host has bailed on the show three weeks before her contract was set to end, after the throw down between her and Elisabeth Hasselbeck took on a life of its own. Ro says that her reason for leaving is the fact that the show chose to do a split-screen of the two hosts, who were arguing over their opposite political views.

Brian Frons, president of ABC Daytime said in a statement: "We had hoped that Rosie would be with us until the end of her contract three weeks from now, but Rosie has informed us that she would like an early leave. Therefore, we part ways, thank her for her tremendous contribution to The View and wish her well."

Rosie answered questions on her website all weekend regarding the incident and, when asked if she an Elisabeth had spoken, Ro said, "She called and Kelli [Carpenter, Rosie's partner] and her she spoke for a long time. I haven't spoken to her and I probably won't, and I think it's just as well."

I'm sad for them, but I'm dying to see what happens on today's show.

Much like her former alter-ego Marissa Cooper, Mischa Barton does not heed warnings about drug interactions!

The O.C. actress, who had been suffering from bronchitis since heading to the Cannes film festival last week, reportedly had few cocktails at a friend's BBQ this weekend, while taking antibiotics. According to TMZ, she began to feel extremely ill and was rushed to an undisclosed medical facility in Los Angeles, where she is "resting comfortably."

A rep for Mischa said the actress is with her fam and "feeling much better."

Props to her peeps for admitting to the adverse reaction, otherwise this so could have been a story about bad potato salad.

And poof! Just like that goes Lindsay Lohan's career down the toilet.

LiLo was arrested and cited for driving under the influence in Los Angeles very early Saturday morning, say police, after crashing her convertible into a curb on Sunset Boulevard. Lindsay, who had been partying at Les Deux, was picked up at the hospital, where she and the two other passengers in her car headed after the accident. Police were notified of the crash by a 911 call from an unidentified source.

Lindsay suffered minor injuries to her upper chest, while the others were not hurt, but the bigger news came when police revealed that they found "a usable amount of cocaine" in connection with the accident. Uh oh.

Police would not specify where the drugs were found, and a rep for the Beverly Hills Police Department also declined to comment on Lindsay's blood-alcohol level. She was charged with a misdemeanor as of now and there is a potential for additional charges.

Now In Touch is reporting that Lindsay is headed back to rehab. "She finally realizes it's the right thing to do," a friend of the actress told the mag. "She is going willingly."

This weekend's turn of events is a tough break for Linds, who was just getting over the last alleged cocaine-related scandal, where a "friend" leaked photos to the media of Lindsay supposedly doing lines in a bathroom stall.

Have some fun! Match some other celebs' mug shots to the crime with which they were charged in our Celebrity Matchmaker: Stars Behind Bars edition.

Things are moving nicely for Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel.

People magazine is suggesting that after a few months of dating around (hello ScarJo and Kate Hudson) the pop star has found what he is looking for in Jess. A source close to singer has said, "Justin's in love. She's the coolest chick ever. He wants to be with her all the time. He's ready to be serious."

Jessica has been spending her time off with Justin across the pond, where he is currently touring. They were seen having dinner with pals and taking in a soccer game.

Justin seems to be a serial-relationship type of guy, so I'm not really surprised. And Jessica, somehow, makes him much less annoying than, say, if he was draping himself all over Scarlett.

I can live with this.

I hope Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich doesn't plan on singing "Enter Sandman" to his new baby boy. The metal head and his actress girlfriend, Connie Nielsen, welcomed Bryce Thadeus Ulrich-Nielsen on May 21. Connie told the Danish newspaper BT, "We are ecstatic. Everything is fine with him. He is eating, and he's just so fine."

Has Mary-Kate Olsen actually acted in anything since Full House and those terrible twin sister movies?

I haven't seen her in anything but paparazzi shots, looking like a bag lady, but she's finally getting a "big girl" role -- and it's going to be a goodie. Showtime has added the skinny starlet to the cast of Weeds, where M-K will play "Tara, a devoted Christian girl . . . who becomes a love interest for Nancy Botwin's (Mary-Louise Parker) son, Silas (Hunter Parrish)." The show's executive producer told Hollywood Reporter, "Audiences have seen only one side of Mary-Kate, but here we'll see her in a whole new light."

Emphasis on the "light," I hope. I'd love to see Mary-Kate take a big bong hit and then head to 7-Eleven for some burritos and a Big Gulp.

After Rosie and Elizabeth's tumultuous fight on The View on Wednesday, yesterday's show was a big snore. Rosie had the day off for her partner Kelli's birthday and the ladies barely spoke about the antics that took place the day before.

However, behind the scenes, Page Six is reporting that Ro's good friend and chief writer, Janette Barber, was allegedly escorted from the ABC building where the show tapes, after she was caught drawing moustaches on photographs of Elisabeth that hang in The View studios.

ABC confirmed in a statement only that photographs at The View's offices were defaced. Rosie O'Donnell was not in the building. ABC Legal and Human Resources are investigating the matter."

Come on! That's just ridiculous. Especially since these women were arguing over gravely serious topics such as politics in our country and our troops in Iraq, to participate in such a juvenile act is just disheartening.

You know what? It's just another story to support "the celebrity world is like high school" theory, though this is more like pre-school, if you ask me.

What?

Maybe she's not Nicole Richie-thin, but she's certainly not obese. And people wonder why girls are sticking toothbrushes down their throats after lunch.

I know it's hard to believe that Britney Spears would actually snag someone who's not just latching on to her for a free ride, but people are buzzing that she and Ryan Phillippe had a hot rendezvous in a club bathroom the other night.

The rumors first started when Ryan and Brit met up at Les Deux. Ry supposedly stopped at Brit's table where she "had her arms around him". Moments later Brit is said to have followed Reese's ex to the men's room. When Britney didn't return right away her worried bodyguards are said to have "busted in the door and found Britney and Ryan groping and kissing."

Of course their reps say it never happened, and considering the story is running in the National Enquirer, I'm not inclined to believe it, but it certainly sounds possible. Then again, Britney likes to find that rare diamond in the ruff, like her ex Kevin Federline, to polish up and make a her own. Ryan doesn't quite fit the bill.

What do you think? Hook up or made up?

The King of Pop has found a way to rake in more money for his never-ending plastic surgery. Michael Jackson has agreed to appear at the Prince Azim of Brunei's 25th birthday party for a cool 10 million dollars. But get this; he won't even be performing Thriller or Billie Jean! Jacko doesn't have to sing a thing -- all he has to do is show up, say a few words, and be his weird old self.

The prince is going all out, reportedly spending close to $14 million in total on the bash. Other people scheduled to appear are Jerry Hall, Pamela Anderson, Faye Dunaway, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss. The all-star guests will leave with goodie bags stuffed with diamond jewelry, Bose electronics, iPods and tubs of Creme De La Mer face creams.

The two-day event will start with a casino theme on Friday, followed by a champagne and caviar disco. At Saturday evening's grand finale - a Black & Glamorous themed ball - Dionne Warwick will sing (for a measly $500,000 --rip off!) and MJ will make a speech and pretend to be normal.

A source for London's Daily Mirror says, "Prince Azim wants his bash to be more glamorous than the Oscars. He's adamant it should be talked about for years to come."

Yes, but will it be better than MTV's My Super Sweet Sixteen?

Vicki's hubby David Beckham gets to town in July, as that is when his contract with the Galaxy soccer team goes into effect. Until then girl should take up gardening or something.

I know that some people are watching this show for the controversy Rosie causes with her big mouth, but am I alone in thinking that this has gone way past entertainment? I 've always liked The View for the banter between the ladies,and I definitely feel that Rosie has improved the show, but I was literally cringing from her fight with Elisabeth yesterday. If I wanted to watch people argue I'd watch Judge Judy, or all the other news channels where people are yelling over one another. I don't need to see Rosie and Elisabeth welling up with tears, as their fight clearly became very personal.

Admittedly I'm a wuss, and not a fan of confrontation, but I'm just looking to hear a few interesting stories and laugh a little when I tune in to the ladies. And I'm not sure if it can get back to that while Rosie is still around.

The nausea that is Spencer Pratt and Lauren Conrad's ex-bff Heidi Montag, from Laguna Beach spinoff The Hills, have taken their very public relationship to the next step. Us magazine is reporting that Spencer got down on his wicked little knee and asked Heidi to be his wife. Of course she said "yes".

"She's over the moon!" a source told the mag of Heidi, who has been dating Spencer for eight months now.

All I can think is that Heidi hasn't watched an episode of her own show. Because if she had, she would see what a loser and snake this dude is. The good news is, when she catches him cheating on her (because it's obvious he will), she'll have a fresh new pair of boobs to share with someone else.

I wonder if Lauren will be a bridesmaid. Um, no.

Although I have the most ridiculous makeup assortment you could imagine (it's for work... really!), I don't consider myself a girly girl. So it was fun to be asked to attend last night's the Art of Packaging Award ceremony honoring Clinique. It was black tie -- so I had to say good-bye to my daily uniform (Serfontaine jeans and a rotating collection of tops) and into a clingy black gown and some great silver shoes. And I finally got to bust out the beautiful handbag that my friend and sometime makeup artist, Pauline, gave me for Christmas.

The event took place at the University Club in Manhattan -- and Clinique was honored for their designs. You know what their stuff looks like -- you probably have a green compact somewhere in one of your makeup bags. During the ceremony -- emceed by WABC-TV anchor Sade Baderinwa -- I got to counting how many Clinique products I have... I stopped after five.

The celebrity tie-in is that at the table next time mine sat the one and only Dustin Hoffman. Who -- yes, Natalie -- is taller than me. (IMDB.com says he's 5'6 3/4 to my 5'2 1/12.) Not sure what the Meet the Fockers star was doing there -- maybe he was with his daughter, who recently launched a skincare line? -- but after dinner was served all the ladies ran over to pose for photos with him.

Obviously I wasn't in the line or you'd see my mug along with his right here in the Blabber. I hate asking celebs to pose for photos. It is so weird.

The lovely evening was capped off with a great gift box of Clinique products. (Natch!) I have two new lipsticks, a blush, mascara and this Dramatically DIfferent Moisturing Lotion that is going to make me look like a 18-year-old again. (Oh, wait -- I still look like an 18-year-old.) And I got some men's shaving something or another, which I gave away to my driver Dan on the way home.

So if I don't post for a bit, you'll know where I am -- off applying my new makeup... all the while insisting that I'm totally not a girly girl.

The country crooner told Us Weekly that she and Nashville Predators hockey star Jordin Tootoo have been an item for months now, but have tried to lay low as a couple.

"We’ve been seeing each other since January, but we kept it under wraps,” Kellie told the mag. She plans to join her beau in central Canada this summer where, together, they'll take on the world. “I am this country bumpkin and he’s an Eskimo. I’m going to build an igloo!”

Let's hope she doesn't fall through the ice, but if she does, (insert flotation device joke here).

Plus: Talk about last night's American Idol in TV Cocktail.

So it was my best bud D's birthday yesterday and, being the procrastinator with a 1-year-old that I am, I couldn't get my butt to a store to pick her up a real card. So I was forced to surf the web looking for an appropriate E-card to send her. I'm not a paid member to any of those sites, I usually prefer the snail mail way of sending cards, but in my web travels I found the coolest, FREE, greeting card site.

It's called MushyGushy.com. Cute name, right? The thing that is so different about this site is that you can cut a head out of any picture you have on your computer (or find on the Internet) and paste it into an animated card. So, for instance, I sent Donna a birthday wish with my smiling, dancing face on it. Then I went crazy and sent my hubby an "I love you" card with our baby's head, plus one to my parents and in-laws. But you could upload a photo of, say, Josh Hartnett and send it to your friend who is all about him.

If you're like me and can barely find time to take a shower during the day, much less get to the store in time to get a birthday/anniversary/I love you card on time, check out this ingenious site and send your head to someone you love.

I can't believe Janet is 41, but she is. Wasn't she just playing Willis' girlfriend on Diff'rent Strokes?

In the new US she shares some of her stay-sexy tips:

"If I can do it, anybody can do it. Eating light and clean helps, but you really shouldn’t think of it as a diet, otherwise you feel like you’re depriving yourself. If you crave something, you should have a little bit of it, then let it go and move on. Do a little exercise so you’re back on track.”

Dennis Quaid and his wife Kimberly are expecting twins by a very nice surrogate mother later this year. His rep says Meg Ryan's ex and his wife, who were married in 2004, are the biological parents. The babies will have a big brother, Jack, from daddy's union with Meg.

In other dynamite baby news, John Heder and his wife Kirsten welcomed a baby girl into the world, naming her Evan Jane Heder. Napoleon Dynamite's daughter is said to be "safe and sound and healthy."

Congrats to all!

Her rep says no, but the National Enquirer and Star rag are saying that Nicole Richie has had a relapse and was back in Beau Monde on May 11 to fight anorexia and a painkiller addiction, on an outpatient basis.

The tabs say Nicole returned on the 19th.

Nicole's rep told TMZ a totally different story, saying that she's "in Glendale at her house" and was not admitted back into the facility. Her peeps are admitting that she did go back to see her therapist, and that her recovery is "an ongoing process," but that she's "completely sober."

Sounds suspicious...

What will Lindsay Lohan tell her AA friends when they come to her rumored end all and be all 21st birthday bash in July and find it's sponsored by Svedka vodka?

Nothing! She wouldn't dare let common folk into her star-studded bash.

As curious as it may sound, the "on the wagon" starlet has indeed closed a deal with the vodka company -- a deal that could net Linds up to seven figures for the July 2-3 celebration in Las Vegas.

When asked about the interesting selection, Linds' rep told the Daily News,"I am unaware of who is sponsoring Lindsay's birthday, as I am not the one planning it."

But LiLo's lawyer Mike Heller confirmed the vodka deal. "This should be one of the best parties ever," he told Us Weekly.

And isn't that what really matters?

Hello my Blabber-ers,

I'm back from a lovely weekend in Orlando, where I appeared on iVillage Live yesterday to talk about sexy celebrity men over 40.

My job is sooo difficult.

The guys from Hootie and the Blowfish (remember them?) were there, so I got to meet two of them. The main guy -- Darius Rucker -- was pretty quiet, but I told them that they played in Huntington, West Virginia when I was in college at Marshall University. Later, when I text messaged my friend Natalie to tell her I'd met them (she went to the Hootie concert with our friend Bonnie), Natalie wrote back to say that she had kissed the blond guy after the show.

"I kissed the goofy looking blonde guy in Huntington when they played at the Wild Dog," she said in her text. "I think.. right, I am pretty sure I did."

Oh, those fuzzy, foggy college nights.

Also on the set? David Tutera, who's a party planner of the stars. He's organized parties for Jennifer Lopez, Susan Lucci, Matthew McConaughey and a ton of other people. He also planned Elisabeth Hasselbeck's last baby shower and they're pals -- he was on The View today -- so he'll probably do the next one as well. He says she's due in October. My guest (very slightly!) resembled David, so it amused the heck outta us that people kept coming up to him all day asking him for party tips.

My favorite guest was a gal named Seven, who is a national spokeswoman for Ballys Fitness. Girl has it going on in the body department. After talking with her, I was like: Get me to a trainer asap. I said a prayer for her butt before I went to bed last night.

Glad to be back though. Missed you guys.

Suzy

CALL A STYLIST!

I've been staring at this photo for a good 5 minutes and I literally feel nauseous.

Despite the very bad outfit -- camouflage and stripes? -- I still love me some Johnny Depp. You?

"I literally don't know. It would be nice to know if I'm supposed to report back soon... If you're supposed to report back to work in a month and a half, I would really like to know that, because I would like to know if I can shave my head."
-- T.R. Knight (George) to Access Hollywood on whether or not he'll be on Grey's Anatomy this fall

So, Demi Moore wouldn't go as far as actually admitting that she and hubby Ashton Kutcher are expecting a baby, or even trying to get pregnant, for that matter, but she did tell Access Hollywood's Nancy O' Dell that they may want to add a little male punker to their fam.

“I wouldn’t mind,” Demi revealed to Nancy, when she asked if they wanted to have a boy. “I wouldn’t mind a little balance, you know balancing out that estrogen.”

Demi and Ashton already have three girls from her marriage to Bruce Willis, but it seems the old marrieds spend most of their free time working on other things than making a baby -- like Mexican train dominoes.

"It takes about three hours to play,” Demi explains. “I’m not joking when I say we’re addicted like two to three times a week.”

Huh! I'm suddenly not feeling so bad about playing Yahtzee with my husband on Saturday night.

Even a gag order is no match for our friends at Access Hollywood, who got confirmation from a source close to David Hasselhoff, that the actor and his estranged wife Pamela Bach will share joint custody of their two kids.

The family court judge ruled that Dave will have the girls three days and Pam will have them four.

Earlier in the month, a judge suspended the Hoff's visitation rights with his two daughters Taylor-Ann and Hayley Amber after a very sad video, showing the actor drunk, was leaked to the media.

The new custody arrangement will remain in place as long as David stays clean. He is required to take three blood tests and three breathalyzer tests this week. If he passes these tests he will continue to see his girls on this schedule.

We wish him the best of luck.

"There's nothing I have to hide or defend...you know, I'm gonna live my life. And there are gonna be times when people wanna try to attack me and I don't know why, but they will. And that's okay....There are other things I'm more concerned about...My kids are healthy. I have a lot I want to do in this world...I'm gonna be dead one day. And what people say about me is gonna be what I accomplished and what I did in my life and how my children are."

--- Angelina Jolie, to NBC's Ann Curry, on the never-ending stories of her life with Brad

Ann's full interview with Angie is set to air on Wednesday.

We're doubting the book Oprah's dad Vernon Winfrey is writing will be on Op's "must read" list when it hits the shelves.

The talk show queen said she was "stunned" at the news that her pop was penning a book called "Things Unspoken," dishing on Oprah as a child, saying she was "out of hand and unruly."

Oprah told the Daily News that she was blind sided when the paper called to get a comment from her about the book -- it was the first she had heard of it.

"One of my assistants said, 'The Daily News is calling. They say they heard your father is writing a book about you.' I said, 'That's impossible. I can assure them it's not true.'

"But then my sister said, 'I think you should call your father.' I called him and it turned out he is writing a book. The worst part of it was him saying, 'I meant to tell you I've been working on it.' "

"The last person in the world to be doing a book about me is Vernon Winfrey," O added. "The last person."

Talk about being betrayed -- no Father's Day tie for Vern.

Paula Abdul will be sportin' an unfortunate accessory on tonight's Idol -- a newly-banged up nose.

Judge Number Two took a spill and fell on her face this past weekend, breaking her sniffer. Paula was, reportedly, trying not to step on her Chihuahua Tulip when she hit the ground.

Though her rep says that Paula looks fine, he admits she is definitely feeling the after-effects.

"She is in pain. No question about that," he told People. "But she's standing 10 feet from me and you'd never know anything happened to her. There are no bandages. She's got some bruises on her arms and on one of her legs."

Let's hope the doctors have given sweet Paula something for the discomfort -- it will make tonight's American Idol sing-off even more interesting.

Will Katie Holmes be paying the pizza delivery boy for his sausage special? Not quite, but Katee Holmes will. Confused? I think that's the point.

A brand new porn star has been born and she is going by Mrs. Tom Cruise's maiden name (with a spelling glitch). Katee Holmes is a blonde, blue-eyed fashion student, a self-proclaimed virgin, who's rep says that her client is taking on Katie's name as an homage to the mom.

"Katee is using the name as a tribute to Katie, who has always portrayed an innocence in everything she's done, beginning with Dawson's Creek," said Shy Love (I kid you not).

The real Katie's peeps call the name-taking a "cheap shot" and "sleazy", and I can't even imagine the lunacy that must be Tom Cruise at this moment.

I think it's kind of funny. I've always loved the names of porn movies that are bitten off mainstream flicks. My fave to date: Edward Penishands.

Did any of you have that friend in high school who would break up and get back together with her boyfriend every weekend? You were supposed to love him when she loved him and then call him scum when she hated him? I'm thinking that's the way it is for Jessica Simpson's friends.

Just days after the rumblings that John Mayer had dumped Jess, Us Weekly is reporting that the couple spent the night together in Jessica's NYC hotel room. Jess had been flying solo in Cannes this weekend, while John was seen partying with lots of ladies, but the crooner was back in Jess' company before you can say "we love the drama."

I'm sure this won't be the last we hear about this...

Now I'm positive that Pam Anderson absolutely broke Kid Rock's heart.

The former-marrieds almost ran into each other in Cannes this weekend when they showed up at the same restaurant. Even though Kid was there with his new girlfriend, May Anderson, sources say he bolted when he heard Pam was around.

"All of a sudden," said a Rush and Malloy spy, "Kid is like, 'Let's go, let's go!' He grabs May and pulls her out, and they leave right away. Kid Rock freaks out, and I've never seen him like that in my life!"

Pam was reportedly upset that Kid would flee at the mention of her name, but apparently it's just too hard for him to be around her.

I'm so upset for Kid. Obviously he is so much better off without the dim-witted blonde, but you can't help who you love, and he's obviously been burned by Pam more than once. Even his new flaxen-haired sweetie couldn't ease the pain. Sigh....

Who would have thought that the guy who wrote and sang the tear-jerking ballad, "With Arms Wide Open", could be such a belligerent dude?

Scott Stapp, former lead singer of the band Creed, was arrested at his home on Sunday and charged with assault related to domestic violence.

"No one was injured and no one was taken to the hospital," said Paul Miller, a Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office spokesman. He refused declined identify the victim and said he had no information about any physical violence.

"We don't know exactly what occurred here," he cryptically said.

Scott was married in February of 2006, to former Miss New York Jaclyn Nesheiwat, and was arrested for public drunkenness at LAX as he was on his way to his honeymoon.

Jaclyn would only say, "It's just a rough time," to The Palm Beach Post, of her hubby's latest screw up.

I'm thinking her arms aren't going to be so wide open when Scott gets out of jail.

Weeks after getting a clean bill of health from doctors, Farrah Fawcett was blind sided when new reports showed her cancer had returned. Originally diagnosed with anal cancer in 2006, the Charlie's Angels star had thought she's beaten the disease when doctors found another small malignant polyp in a recent exam.

What's even more heartbreaking is that before Farrah had the chance to tell her family the devastating news, The National Enquirer splashed the story on their rag.

"While Farrah still believes ‘Positivity Is A Necessity,’ it is now clear that the tabloids are as invasive and malignant as cancer and must be dealt with in the same aggressive manner," Farrah's good friend, Craig Nevius, said in a statement to Access Hollywood. "With this in mind, Farrah refuses to be forced into making any statement until such time as she, and not anyone else, sees fit. Farrah knows that her fans (or any human being with a heart, soul or conscience) will understand and support her position.”

The actress is currently being treated for the cancer.

This is the big make up scene from The Simple Life 5. I found it to be pain-staking, but thought some of you might want to see it. I was curious enough to give it a go.

I wonder if Nicole will bring Paris a cake with a nail file in it while she's in the slammer.

A word to the wise for Britney Spears: If you are trying to build your fan base back up, do not act like a big baby on a plane filled with regular people.

The pop princess threw a tad bit of a hissy fit on Friday, after boarding a United flight from Los Angeles to Miami. Minutes before the plane was scheduled to take off, Brit demanded she be let off. Apparently she finds non-leather airplane seats to be toxic.

"It was quite astonishing,” passenger Tony Sanchez told the News Of The World. “The doors had been closed for about ten minutes, everyone was strapped in and the plane was about to taxi to the runway when Britney got up and said she had to get off. She just said 'I don't want to fly on this plane. It hasn't got leather seats.' I heard everything but most people were left wondering what was going on, so the captain was forced to make an apology to all the other passengers over the tannoy."

Of course everyone else on the flight was pissed.

"It was quite a fiasco but she didn't seem to care about anything except getting off that plane. All the passengers were furious."

Brit did wind up finding a ride that met her demands, because she continued her House of Blues comeback tour in Miami Friday night, performing the same show she has been for the last few weeks, complete with a skipping CD that showcased her lip-synching. Brit pretended to sing to a sold out venue after fans waited on lines around the block for hours to get in to see her shake her mini-skirted groove thing.

Whoops!

Perez Hilton is reporting that the "public affair" between John and Jess is kaput! And it happened very recently.

"They officially called it quits this past weekend," a source told the gossip monger. "They'd been having problems for a while now and just decided it'd be better to end things."

Jessica has been in Cannes (random!), looking happy, while John has be
