You can now forget you ever heard the name Riley Giles.

Lindsay Lohan's rehab distraction of a boyfriend has ridden his set of coattails as far as they are going to take him. According to People.com (hi, Suzy!), Lindsay and Riley broke up just after he went home with the starlet for Thanksgiving.

"They're over – they've broken up," a source blabbed. "She is concentrating on her life and her career," another pal said.

Interestingly enough, Lindsay was out and about the other night with sometimes boy toy and Paris Hilton ex Stavros Niarchos. Hmmm...

Was Conan O'Brien afraid his staff would leave him for David Letterman?

Maybe -- or he's just a good guy, like Dave. The talk show host has decided to pay the 80 people on his staff, now that the NBC checks have run out and the writers are still on strike. The network was paying the Late Night with Conan O'Brien non-writers through the end of the month, which is today, but nobody is going to starve, as Conan will be picking up the tab for the foreseeable future. This comes just a few weeks after David Letterman promised it would be a merry Christmas for his peeps, offering to pay their salaries at least through the end of the year.

Those late night guys -- what sweeties.

Have any experience editing videos or short films? No?

Who cares? It's for a Britney Spears video!!

Even though Brit has already shot a music video for her next single, "Piece of Me," the Britster is teaming up with MTV to launch a contest called "Britney Spears Wants Piece of You," to let her fans try to make something better.

MTV will release previously recorded footage of Brit (I wonder if the VMAs will make it in) and contestants will have to create a three-and-a-half minute music video out of it.

Get your entries in by Dec. 14. when MTV, Jive Records and Britney will decide who reigns supreme. The winning video will appear on TRL on Dec. 20.

Let your creative juices flow and try and impress Britney. How hard could that be -- she married Kevin Federline?

List time!

I hope Reese Witherspoon pays for at least some of her dates with Jake Gyllenhaal, as the mom of two has just been named the highest paid female actress by the Hollywood Reporter. In their new "Women in Entertainment: Power 100" issue, Reese, who rakes in $15-$20 million per flick, just beat out Angelina Jolie who makes almost as much, Cameron Diaz, who averages $15 mil, followed by Nicole Kidman and Renee Zellwegger.

By the way, these are just averages -- Cam reportedly made $30 million for the third Shrek!

These ladies have cash!

I'd love to be able to tell you that Kat and Josh were getting hammered in celebration of their upcoming nuptials (they plan to wed right around Christmas), but the couple was actually throwing back shots of wheatgrass and ginger at a local health store in Los Feliz, Ca.

Looking for a little honeymoon love potion, are we?

I was actually just wondering where Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's adopted kids, Connor and Isabella, are. We sometimes see Tom and Katie Holmes at one of their soccer games, but that's rare, and I can't remember the last time I saw Nicole with them.

Maybe that's why Nicole told the UK’s GMTV, “My kids don’t call me mommy, they don’t even call me mom. They call me Nicole, which I hate and tell them off for it."

The actress, who recently bought land to build on in Tennessee, with country crooner hubby Keith Urban, also says that her kids don't particularly love the idea. “When children are teenagers, they have a say in where they want to be," she said. "Los Angeles is a big draw, and I’m looking to get a place there so we can share more,” she says.

That would be nice. But, it doesn't look like that's happening right away. Nicole has said that she's planning on hitting the road with Keith, on his upcoming tour, because she just can't stand to be away from him. "I'm just not willing to give up my life with my man anymore."

Okay, so if Nicole's on the road with Keith, and Tom, Katie and Suri are traveling all over the world, who is taking care of the kids? Nannies? All the time? That makes me mad.

If you somehow find yourself dating Paul McCartney (it could happen), sources say you can expect to look hot and smell sweet.

According to Page Six, Paul has a habit of buying his gal pals lingerie and perfume -- which is lovely -- except that he gets everyone he is dating the same thing. "He has a ritual. He buys the same thing. He's been buying a bottle of perfume and lingerie for so long, it's predictable," said an insider. "He gives it to them even before they get dinner. He's done it with everyone he's been with."

Paul has reportedly gifted both businesswoman and "close friend" Nancy Shevell and newest flame, Rosanna Arquette, with the loot.

Come on, Paul, you can do so much better than that. You are a ladies man! A Beatle! Use some imagination.

Julia Roberts must have been talking to good pal George Clooney about confronting the over-aggressive paparazzi, because the pretty woman took a page from George's book and made a photographer pull over -- so she could yell at him!

Love it!

TMZ.com has the video of Julia honking her horn like a maniac, then getting out, walking up to the driver's side window of the paparazzo's car and demanding he quit it. Julia, who had her two-year-old twins, Hazel and Phinnaeus, in the car with her, told the cameraman, "Listen, you can turn your video camera off. You're at a school where children go. Turn it off."

The best part of the video is how nervous the guy is. As he's pulling over, and Julia is storming the car, you can here him fretting and breathing nervously. He obviously knows she's one tough cookie. I have to say, though, both Julia and George were fairly polite in their demands. No bad words, no threats, just simply telling the paps to stop endangering the people around them. Love 'em.

Not really? Well, you'd better brush up on Brad's naked body parts, because you won't be seeing them again. Unless you're Angelina Jolie, of course.

Brad told a BBC reporter that his stripping down days are dunzo. "I don't want to be embarrassed when my kids get old enough to see my films," he said. "I can't see any more nude scenes [in my career.]" Actually, Brad says you probably won't be seeing him that much in movies (even clothed!) from now on. "I figure I've got very few films left," he said. "Who knows how many I'll get to do now, so I want to do something I'm interested in. Otherwise, I don't want to bother. I think it's a younger person's game."

Who would have thought?

Don't worry, though. A new strapping young man is bound to be walking into our lives any day now -- and hopefully he'll be getting naked.

The couple welcomed Alabama Gypsy Rose Jennings (that's some name!) into the world on Wednesday night. The little girl weighed in at 8lbs., 3oz.

Cannolis all around!

Mrs. Tom Cruise debuted her new hairdo -- a sleek bob with heavy bangs -- at the Bambi awards in Germany last night.

So, what do you think? Is Katie's new 'do and do or a don't? Tell me.

It's looking worse and worse for the Hogan family.

Hulk Hogan's son, Nick Hogan, was driving around 100 mph during the August car crash which seriously injured his friend John Graziano, police records show. Barrett Lawrance was a passenger in the other car that was racing against Nick that fateful night. He admitted to police that they were driving at the high speeds and that "this is how [Nick and pals] always drive."

Nick's attorney denies that his client was driving at that speed, as Nick, who had a breath-alcohol level of .02 or higher after the crash, told police he was traveling 30 or 40 mph and did not know what road he was traveling on or what direction.

Earlier in the day Nick was photographed partying on a boat with his friends and his dad. To make matters worse, Hulk reportedly bought $78 in beer and ice at a liquor store before the boat trip, making it look like he may have given alcohol to his son, who's underage, that day.

So bad.

Remember the other day when I suggested that Paris get knocked up, like BFF Nicole Richie, so she can change her life and clean up her act like Nic seems to have done? Well, I think Paris might be considering my advice. The heiress told People.com, at the Nissan Live Sets One Year Anniversary Party, that she, too, wants to have a baby, so that her kid can hang with Nicole's kid.

"Nicole and I have been playing together since we were two years old," she said. "I was just telling her, 'I want a baby so that our babies can play together.'"

Paris, if you're reading this, NOOOOO! I was only kidding. I kid a lot on this blog. Ha, ha. Just joking. Totally joking. Not serious. DO NOT get pregnant. Believe me, taking care of a kid is a lot harder than shuffling those dogs around. Wait it out.

P.S. Those sunglasses you wore in China? Awful.

A day after In Touch proudly displayed their "scoop" that Britney Spears is pregnant with her former flame J.R. Rotem's baby, the would-be daddy says the story is bunk.

"There is absolutely no truth to this," the producer told People.com.

Yeah, we know. But J.R. is certainly getting a lot of attention all of a sudden. Isn't that interesting?

It's been like an hour since Britney Spears has done something a tad bit wacky, so this story about her stripping off her underwear, in the middle of a porn shop, seems right on time.

According to Us Weekly, Brit visited the very naughty Hustler Store in West Hollywood late one night, a few weeks ago. She reportedly picked up a bunch of panties and headed to the fitting rooms, when the store employees "told her they don't allow people to try on underwear."

Um, eww.

"She was really upset," said a store source. "She looked out of it. There was nothing going on behind her eyes."

Britney then threw a fit, and took off her own underwear (apparently she was wearing some) and tried on a pair of "Barely Legal' boyshorts -- right in the middle of the store, while 15 other customers looked on.

"The employees kept saying 'Don't change out here!" one witness said. "She's just like, 'Well, I couldn't take them in the fitting room!' It was like dealing with a child."

"The staff told her she had to pay, and she rolled her eyes, but paid with a credit card," the source said.

The kicker? "On her way out, she went up to a mannequin, snatched the wig off the head, and stole it!"

Seriously, I can't even deal with her.

Get your minds out of the gutter! Lindsay has been ordered to have the deposition for her car-crash related case recorded, despite the objections of her lawyers. A member of LiLo's legal team tried to ban the cameras, saying that the footage would just end up as tabloid fodder.

"If a single picture of Ms. Lohan can sell for thousands of dollars, a videotape of the deposition will undoubtedly sell for tens of thousands of dollars, or more," her lawyer wrote in the motion. He claimed that the real purpose of videotaping the proceeding was to "annoy Ms. Lohan and to attempt to gain a litigation advantage by causing her concern about the embarrassment of such a videotape."

The judge wasn't having it and ordered the Dec. 3 deposition to include the rolling cameras. Action!

Ooooh, TMZ is so on that.

Us Weekly is reporting that The Ghost Whisperer star's boyfriend, Ross McCall, proposed last week, with an antique engagement ring that has been in his family for over 100 years. Jen, of course, accepted. The couple is currently celebrating on vacation in Hawaii.

Good for Jennifer. She's one of the nicest girls around. Have you ever not seen her smiling or laughing or making fun of herself? Nope -- she's totally down-to-earth and real -- and that's so rare these days, especially for someone who has been in the business as long as she has.

Congrats!

Here's the item from Page Six:

"Joe and Tony have been friendly for a while. Joe is a huge Dallas Cowboy fan, and Tony has always had a crush on her - he even said on his Web site like a year ago that it was his dream to date her. Jessica has been in Nashville and Dallas recording her new country album. When Tony found out, he called Joe and said, 'I know she's not dating anyone right now, can I take her out for a drink at least?' Jessica said it was OK for Joe to give Tony her number and they hit it off. They've been dating for a couple of weeks now, and Jessica is so happy. She's been texting everyone about how great he is." The lovebirds are so into each other that Romo joined the Simpsons in Waco, Texas, for Thanksgiving. A rep for Simpson declined to comment on her personal life but said, "She is happily recording her country album.""

It sounds to me that, if Joe and Tony could go out, they would. But, for now, Jess will have to do. About five minutes ago Tony was dating Sophia Bush, and five minutes before that, it was Carrie Underwood, so the countdown is on...

Although thrilled by their impending bundle of joy, Christina tells the mag that she and husband, Jordan Bratman, didn't exactly expect things to move so quickly.

"We were planning on starting to try after the [Nov. 2006-May 2007 Back to Basics] tour. And so, I had gone off the Pill to prepare my body, because I didn't know how much time it would take," she revealed. "You've heard it takes some time – except with Power Egg and Super Sperm here," she joked. "I'm like, Oh, my God, can you believe it just happened?"

As for Paris Hilton letting the baby news out of the bag at a party the singer hosted, by calling her "the most beautiful pregnant woman in the world," the mom-to-be has no hard feelings. "Because I hadn't said anything, people thought I was trying to keep it this big, bad secret, and that's not the case at all. I just wasn't commenting. I'm not being like, 'Hey, everybody, I'm pregnant!' I'm not that girl."

Looks like that's changed...

Well, Britney had her minions get on that rumor in a hurry, and her faithful sidekick as of late, Sam Lufti, quickly text messaged Ryan Seacrest's morning radio show to shoot down the talk.

"It's BS," he wrote. "Don't know who made it up. J.R. doesn't even know what's up. It's fake. Completely fake."

Good grief! Could you imagine?

When I saw this picture of John I actually screamed. I thought, "Did he (heaven forbid) die and someone forgot to tell me?" That boy is way too pale for my blood. Okay, I'll admit that I might be a bit tanorexic, and even though I know it's bad for me, tend to hit a tanning bed every now and then. But it's just so that I don't wind up scaring the neighbors -- like John would surely do.

Against a bed, John? Look into a spray tan. Please. Now.

Drew's latest honey, Justin Long, is totally into her, as well, which is cool. He actually took the actress home to meet his parents! The duo spent the Thanksgiving holiday with his fam in Connecticut, then, on Friday, they hung out a nearby brewery, where they dove deep into some massive PDAs.

"They started out in the bar area and then moved to a booth, where they sat next to each other and kissed and hugged," one spy told People. "Drew and Justin were adorable," another witness said.

Maybe Justin is "The One"?

Have you missed seeing Carson Daly on your late-night travels?

Me neither, but he's going back to work anyway. According to NBC, Carson, who is not a member of the Writer's Guild, will resume taping his talk show, Last Call with Carson Daly, next week, even though the writer's strike has yet to be settled. Contract talks between the writers and producers resumed Monday, so, hopefully, something good will happen soon.

Wake me up when David Letterman goes back to work.

Gimme an "A"!

No, no, Angelina Jolie wasn't nominated for that kind of spirit award, silly. Brad Pitt's love snagged a best actress 2008 Film Independent Spirit Award nomination, for her role as Mariane Pearl, in the flick A Mighty Heart. The film itself, which Brad produced, was nominated for best picture.

The winners will be announced February 23 at a luncheon in Santa Monica, where, I'm sure, we'll get some new, good PDA shots of Brangelina. Can't wait!

I'm not sure if this is good news or bad news.

I guess if you had tickets to see Amy Winehouse and, by some chance, were going to get a coherent performance out of the constantly out-of-it singer, then it's disappointing that she has canceled all her remaining 2007 tour dates. But it's more likely that you would have caught Amy perform in some sort of crazy haze, where she walks off the stage mid-concert -- so take the refund and be happy.

"I can't give it my all onstage without my Blake," the "Rehab" singer wrote on her Web site, of her recently jailed hubby. "I'm so sorry but I don't want to do the shows half-heartedly; I love singing. My husband is everything to me and without him it's just not the same."

Amy's record label would like you to believe that her doctor ordered the end of the tour. "The rigours involved in touring and the intense emotional strain that Amy has been under in recent weeks have taken their toll," they said in a statement. "In the interests of her health and well-being, Amy has been ordered to take complete rest and deal with her health issues."

Amy's husband, Blake Civil-Fielder was arrested earlier this month for allegedly trying to manipulate a witness in his upcoming assault trial and was denied bail. Amy needs to concentrate on visiting him in the slammer and hiding a nail file or two in the gigantic jungle she calls her hair.

Racecar driver Helio Castroneves driver and partner Julianne Hough danced their way to victory on last night's season finale of Dancing With the Stars. Marie Osmond (thankfully) came in third, with "Scary Spice", Melanie Brown, taking the runner up spot.

For a play-by-play of last night's star-studded finale, check out the complete recap at TV Cocktail.

According to sources for People, superstar Usher and his new wife, Tameka Foster, welcomed a baby boy on Monday night.

Reps were not immediately available for comment, but one insider says Usher was right there with his wife at an Atlanta hospital, and the threesome are expected to head home on Wednesday.

We'll keep you posted on any new details...

Update: Usher's rep has confirmed the birth of Usher Raymond V! The baby boy weighed in at 7lbs., 9oz.

"We are so happy and proud of our beautiful son," the couple said in a statement. "What a blessing!"

Congrats!

"I got to hold something for when I get older, I can't have everything happen all in one year," Nicole told Access Hollywood's Billy Bush.

She is, of course, talking about the fact that she and Joel fell in love and are expecting their first child together early next year. Nicole says that the experience of being pregnant has given her a new appreciation for parenting, which is why she has grown closer to bother her biological mother and her famous dad, Lionel Richie.

"When I found out that I was pregnant there was just something inside of me that felt a responsibility to mend any issues that I've had with my parents in the past, because, listen, I've put them through a lot."

Nic says her dad is bubbling over with excitement about the impending birth of his grandchild. "It's all he talks about, actually. Of course, a father's first reaction, he was quiet and didn't really know what to think and I just said, 'Okay, so that's the news, so call me tomorrow,' because I like to give him a day whenever I give him news. He called me the next day and he was so excited and now he just doesn't stop. He has all these names that he's ready for the baby to call him, in substitute of 'grandpa,' because he doesn't like 'grandpa.'"

And though some were saying Lionel would have grandson to teach his smooth moves, Nicole says she and Joel do not know the sex of their baby -- even though it the suspense is killing her. "I like to know everything," she says, "If [Joel] wasn't at every doctor's appointment, I probably would have found out by now just behind his back and not told him."

Nicole sounds so normal and healthy, I'm thinking that maybe Paris Hilton should get knocked up.

Details magazine has named Kevin Federline as one of the most influential men under 45. They even put him on the cover. Yes, Britney Spears's ex takes the No.7 spot, along with Anna Nicole Smith's baby daddy, Larry Birkhead, as the "Good Father."

"To be a father is… everything. It shows me how little I am,” Kev told the mag.

As for his acting career, Kevin says he'd like to branch out and really flex those acting muscles. “I’d actually like to play somebody other than a bad guy or an ass."

Insert giggle here.

On another funny note, is it a coincidence that the article "Are You Turning Your Kid Into a Douchebag?" is in the same issue?

That's it -- I was just shocked.

Aside from canceling Christmas, Madonna's hubby, Guy Richie, is doing his best to get some positive buzz for the U.S. release of his flick, Revolver. Cue the Material Girl, who is helping support her man, by co-hosting a preview party for the movie, in hopes to rub a little star power on the film, that hasn't exactly been getting the best reviews.

The movie was originally released in the U.K., in 2005, and sort of tanked. It has been revamped for its U.S release, but even the actors involved don't have the most positive things to say.

“You have to pay attention — you may have to sit through it twice to figure it out,” co-star Vincent Pastore told Gatecrasher's Ben Widdicombe. "It doesn’t mean it’s a bad movie.”

Well, that will get me to buy a $12 dollar ticket. Um, no.

"There was a time when what people said about me could really get to me. But working on Chicago helped me come into my own," Ash tells the mag. "[Theater acting] had been a dream of mine ever since I was little, and being able to fulfill it ... was amazing. It taught me to be more comfortable with myself."

What about all the haters?

"I've gotten to the point where being credible with myself is more important to me than what anyone else says," she explains. "People make up stories about you, but they don't really know you. ... I'm not fazed by that anymore."

As for her love life, Ashlee says that her relationship with Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz is a source of complete joy. "He's a great sounding board and very supportive," Simpson says. "Pete and I compliment each other. We are best friends, and we encourage each other. I think that is so important in any relationship – it builds a solid foundation."

She sounds pretty good, right?

Taking a break from the legal bonanza that is her life, Britney Spears is focusing on her music for a bit this week, with plans to shoot a new video for her single, "Piece of Me". Brit's new video is said to be set in a club, where she and her dancers all wear matching wigs and trench coats in order to try and outwit the paparazzi. She will film scenes where she dances on a bar and runs down a staircase.

You see what she's doing there? That's called art imitating life.

According to UsMagazine.com, the video shoot is scheduled to take place Tuesday morning at Social Hollywood. But Britney will only be able to shoot for a few hours, because she has to fit in a visit with Sean Preston and Jayden James.

Meanwhile, Britney and Kevin Federline's lawyers were back in court yesterday, discussing the holiday visitation schedule for the kids.

Jessica Alba has never done anything to me personally, but I just don't get all the hype that surrounds her. Yes, she's a pretty girl, but pretty girls are a dime a dozen these days. Yet, people just swoon over her. My friend Craig actually just named his new HD television "Jessica" -- because he loves it almost as much as he loves the real thing.

Anyway, Jessica told Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa that there is a possibility that she will be taking her, somewhat questionable, talents to The Great White Way. "Well, there's a rumor. Yeah, I've been asked to do it," she says, of a role in Speed the Plow. Jess has been tapped to play the role of Karen, which was originated by Madonna in 1988.

"But this is just talk. It's not really happening yet. I'm freaked out!" Jess said of the possibility. "I would be honored to do it," she added, "I don't know if audiences would even want to see me on Broadway."

At least she's not delusional. Would you want to see Jess on Broadway?

It's time for a change.

Kid "Waffle House Brawl" Rock says that he has had it with his long hair and plans on cutting it all off! The rocker told Extra that he's totally ready for a new, more clean-cut look. "I definitely want to cut it. I think this is the last record with the hair," he said. "I've had enough. I'm going to slick it back [and], whoosh, ride off into the sunset."

You know what? I secretly think he'll look hot with short hair. Shhhh!

To go along with his new image, Kid is heading to Iraq for the holidays, to spend some time with the troops. "I told my son I'm going to go to Iraq to be with some people who can't be with their families," he says. "We're not doing presents this year. I'm going to spend some time with these people, 'cause we've been very fortunate at the end of the day."

As for his now-famous quickie marriage/divorce to the new Mrs. Rick Salomon, Pam Anderson, Kid gives what may be may favorite quote ever: "Getting married was a ball. Being married was ... a nightmare."

Love it!

News of the World has photos of the musician and Rosanna Arquette spending some quality time together in West London. The pair are seen strolling through the grounds of the Kenwood House and a witness for the paper says Paul and Ro were getting there cuddle on.

"Paul looked very flirty. They had a couple of cuddles and a kiss. The sparks were there for everyone to see," said the spy.

That old dog! He just never gets tired of the women. Once a Beatle, always a Beatle, I guess.

After over two years together, Suzy Byrne and Daily Blabber are separating. This decision is the result of much thoughtful consideration. "We happily remain committed and caring friends with great love and admiration for one another," they said in a joint statement. "We ask in advance for your kindness and sensitivity in the coming months." They will be sharing joint custody of Tracy Pepey.

To my Daily Blabber friends (and a few good foes):

I've been working at iVillage for four years and -- by far -- my favorite part of this gig has been writing this column. But today, I'm officially passing the baton to my fellow gossipeur and dear friend Tracy, who has been running the show for the last two months. Tracy will continue to deliver your daily dose, making you laugh your tushies off in the process. She is a superstar writer and a superstar friend. I can't tell you how much I'll miss her... and chatting with her all day every day.

As for little ole me, I'm off to freelance at People.com (one of my dreams!) and write Celebrity Planet for Lime.com, but I will be checking in on y'all... I'll just be a reader instead of a writer. Can't wait.

Yours in gossip,

Suzy Byrne

According to the newly-reunited group's website, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes brought Suri to a surprise appearance at a recent rehearsal.

"Tom and Katie enjoyed an impromptu audience with the girls and were treated to an exclusive performance, while Suri danced along to the music."

What a privileged little soul!

Victoria "Posh" Beckham said, "David and I are great friends with Tom and Katie. It was lovely of them to come down to rehearsals, a really nice surprise. Katie has told me before that she used to be a big Spice fan so it was great for her to meet the other girls.”

You know Tom wanted to go for himself, but disguised it as a treat for Suri. It's cool, Tom, we all loved that "If You Wanna Be My Lover" song. Be proud of your love for the girls!

Something is up -- and it can't be good...

According to Us Weekly, Britney, who is already banned from driving with her two sons in the car, left the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills, hopped in her Mercedes and flew through the first two signs. As she approached a third stop sign, she used her brain long enough to slow down, but never actually stopped.

Do they not have Driver's Ed in Louisiana? Did she not get the standard 10-and-2/come to a complete stop lesson? Forget rehab, she needs to go back to driving school.

Look at the Baby Borat! Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher took baby Olive out for a walk in Hollywood. Isn't she precious?

But I do have a sneaky suspicion that poop isn't quite as funny as it used to be, is it Sacha?

I wonder what kinds of cravings Nicole is having. When I was pregnant I was all about chocloate milk. Share some of your craziest cravings below.

What? Your stomach didn't look like that after eating four helpings of sweet potato pie with marshmallows?

The Bachelor's season six winner allegedly clocked her fiance, Byron Velvick, in the face, during a fight last week. Cops were called to the house of Mary and Byron, who have been living together since he proposed on the season finale of the ABC dating show almost three years ago, and found Byron with a split lip. They arrested Mary, who was charged with a first-degree misdemeanor and locked up for 14 hours. She could face up to a year in jail.

Ironically, the couple appeared on The Bachelor's "After the Rose" special the night before the arrest, as a success story, telling the world how they planned to marry sometime next year.

You just can't make this stuff up.

Superman Returns star Brandon Routh married his longtime girlfriend, Courtney Ford, over the holiday weekend. The couple had a posh wedding in Santa Barbara.

Brandon and Courtney met four years ago, way before Brandon ever thought he would be getting in to the Man of Steel's tights. "I used to work at Lucky Strike," Brandon told People in January, referring to the hip bowling alley in Hollywood. "I was a bartender. And her brother was having his [wedding] rehearsal dinner party there."

Apparently, the lovebirds were, ahem, bowled over at first sight. "He met my whole family the day he met me." Brandon says his Lois Lane is his personal kryptonite. "She brings me to my knees."

Awww. Congrats!

Hulk was blindsided by his wife of 24 years, Linda, when she filed for divorce over the weekend. According to the St. Petersburg Times, a Times reporter reportedly dropped the bomb on the wrestler on Friday night.

Hulk thanked the reporter for the "great information" then called back five minutes later to say, "I'm kind of shocked. You caught me off-guard. My wife has been in California for about three weeks. ... Holy smokes. Wow, you just knocked the bottom out of me. ... I just pulled over to the side of the road for five minutes to find out what was going on here."

It's been a tough year for the Hogans, as their son Nick faces a felony charge for driving recklessly and crashing his car in August. His friend and passenger, John Graziano, suffered a brain injury. There's no doubt that Nick's legal trouble has put strain on the fam, but Hulk and Linda had been in marriage counseling and seemed to be working things out. I guess not.

I bet Hulk could use that hug from me right about now.

After you take a look, why don't you tell us which celebs you're thankful for below.

Enjoy the holiday!

Sounds cute, but how hot is this photo? Just the poster wiil put this baby on my list of must-sees. The film opens nationwide on February 8.

"The family is happy and healthy," Joey's rep tells People, of the 7lb. 12oz., to-be-named baby. "Everyone's doing well and they're excited he made it here in time for Thanksgiving."

This is the couple's first child and, the good man that he is, Joey credits his wife with doing most of the work. "My wife is a rock star!" the ecstatic dad said.

Congrats and Happy Thanksgiving!!

I absolutely love Oprah's annual Favorite Things show. All the jumping and yelling and crying -- all for happy reasons!

This year, Op's surprised an audience in Macon, Georgia, (because they have the nation's highest percentage of O viewers) with the hottest ticket in television. From baskets of decadent soaps, to blood orange sorbetto, to the most freakin' awesome refrigerator you have ever seen in your life (it has an HD television in the door!), Op's made this holiday season especially spectacular for her dedicated peeps.

You can see the complete list of fabulous gifts here, but what was Oprah's absolute favorite? The $799 Samsung Progressive HD Camcorder SC-HMX10C.

"My first favorite thing is state of the art and I carried it around with me all through Macon," said Oprah, before revealing it to the crowd.

The only way that show could be more fun is if I was in the audience. With you, of course.

The Desperate Housewives actress goes into detail about growing up with her mentally challenged sister, Liza, and how it's inspired her to want to give back.

"Liza was a role model to get me ready for life in Hollywood," reveals Eva. "You don't take health for granted. You don't take life for granted. It seems so insignificant to go, 'Darn it, I didn't get that movie role,' or 'Darn it, so-and-so is wearing the same dress as me to the Emmys.' I didn't know there was another way. I thought everyone should be sensitive and somewhat unselfish."

Hey, I understand that this is a tough side to see of Eva. I was completely content with being constantly annoyed by her and her perkiness, but, sometimes, you have to be willing to open your mind about people.

So that's my Thanksgiving lesson for the day. Give someone a break -- whether it be that co-worker you're convinced steals your soda, or your mom, who seems to be a whiz at back-handed compliments, or your mailman, who just might be stealing your Us Weekly before leaving it in your mailbox.

I gave my break to Eva -- and can go back to being annoyed by her on Monday.

Kanye West got some much-needed support from his music biz friends, as he attended his mom's funeral, in Oklahoma yesterday.

According to Access Hollywood, Beyonce and Jay-Z were in attendance at the True Vine Ministry church, while superstars John Legend, Anita Baker and Common performed at Donda West's funeral. During the three-hour service, Kanye addressed the crowd of people who came to honor his mom, reportedly thanking them for their love and support. He also said that if his mom was looking down on the funeral, she would have demanded he get up and speak. And so he did.

The emotional rapper said he wanted his beloved mom to not "rest in peace, but rest in paradise."

"I have never disputed the adoption of my baby by Angelina Jolie. I think my daughter is a very fortunate human being to be adopted by a world-famous lady. I wish them both all the success they deserve."

This is so awful.

Dennis Quaid and his wife, Kimberly, are going through hell right now, as their newborn twins are in the neo-natal intensive care unit at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, due to, what has been reported as, as an inadvertent overdose of the drug Heparin, which is used to flush out IV lines and prevent blood clots. According to TMZ.com, the babies (who were born to a surrogate mother on Nov.8) were given 10,000 units of the drug -- instead of 10 -- which caused them to began to "bleed out" Sunday night.

Thomas Boone and Zoe Grace are currently being given a drug to reverse the effects.

Dennis's rep said in a statement:

"Dennis and Kimberly appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers and hope they can maintain their privacy at this difficult time."

So scary and so terrible. Keep them in your thoughts today.

It's been quite the year for top music producer Timbaland. It seems like he has been connected to every smash hit on the radio these days, working with big names like Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake -- he even tried to save Britney Spears! Now the music man is adding a wife and baby to his achievements.

People.com is reporting that Tim proposed to his girlfriend/publicist, Monique Idlett, at the couple's baby shower and welcomed their new baby girl just a few days ago. "They're both really happy together," says a source. "They've known each other for years." The new parents plan to marry sometime next year.

Congrats to Tim!

"If she was here, she would tell me, 'Get on that stage and kill it, dawg!'" he said. "That was her favorite word: 'dawg.' She would tell me, 'Take over the world and be No. 1 like I taught you to be,'" Kanye said of Donda West.

Kanye followed his speech by dedicating the Journey hit, "Don't Stop Believing," to the lady that made him who he is today. "I wanna dedicate this to my mother because of the words, the lyrics ... It says what she would want me to do, and that's to not stop believing."

Watch the video here. It gave me chills.

"We canceled Christmas a few years ago," Guy said. "Stopped all the presents. And ever since [we] stopped the presents, we're actually enjoying it."

Um, okay. Nobody said you have to give your kids extravagant gifts -- we're sure Lourdes, Rocco, and David have plenty of nice things, but to say that Christmas is cancelled? That's so harsh. It almost makes me want to cry. And what about Chanukah? Is that cancelled, too? Kwanzaa?

What a scrooge!

"She is amazing,” Brenda, I mean, Shannen told People of Kelly's, I mean, Jennie's performance. “Ian (Ziering. who played Steve) did great on it and Jennie is doing great on it.”

Brenda says that she was actually first to be asked on the show, but declined. "Dancing with the Stars actually offered it to me the very first one that they did and I have an issue being judged—I’m not a big fan of it,” Shannen confessed. “But I love the show.”

Sure they did. And Dylan will always love you more than Kelly -- not.

Just for fun tell me if you were on Team Brenda or Team Kelly.

It seems Britney Spears has had enough of just her name being dragged through the mud in the custody battle for her kids. Brit has reportedly hired a private investigator to track her ex Kevin Federline, in hopes to dig up some much needed dirt.

One source tells TMZ.com that, while Britney and Kevin were still married, Kevin would smoke pot and drink beer around the boys. Britney is hoping to get some of the same goods on Kevin now, to prove she's not the only monumental screw up in Sean and Jayden's world.

Britney and Kevin's lives may be a complete circus, but these two are driving the clown car.

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have sort of fallen off the radar as of late, but you'll be happy to know (I guess) that these two are still very much a couple.

Justin has been touring all over Austrailia while Jess has been working back home but, according to Perez Hilton, the duo reunited this past weekend. Jessica flew to be with her man this past weekend, joined also by J.T.'s mom and her boyfriend.

J&J wined and dined, played golf and swam. Such a romantic reunion.

When are these two going to break up? I need them to be exciting again.

After his September motorcycle crash in New Jersey, George Clooney is done with letting other drivers put him in danger -- especially the paparazzi.

George and girlfriend Sara Larson were out for a ride, when he actually pulled over to scold the hoard of paparazzi that were following him (TMZ.com has the video). The gorgeous actor accused the paps of being way too aggressive on the road, just to get a photo of him.

"You broke some laws, I want to find out what your license plate number is," George barked. "How many laws did you break, pal?... You cut me up... How many people did you put in danger? You drove like a maniac down here. At least understand that you're putting people in danger... I've been down on a motorcycle and the last thing I want to do is get thumped."

The paps then apologized to George (of course, they'll do anything to get on a huge star's good side) and George and Sarah drove off.

Seriously, watch the video. George is so hot.

Mary-Kate Olsen has been hospitalized with a kidney infection.

The twin mogul, who recently snagged a role on Weeds, went to the emergency room on Monday and, after, was admitted to New York Hospital. "Mary Kate got a kidney infection," her rep, Nicole Caruso, told People. "She's resting comfortably and will be released in the next day or so."

That sucks -- but I'm sure Mary-Kate isn't lonely in the hospital. Twin sis Ashley Olsen must be visiting constantly and maybe she's even bringing her new man, Lance Armstrong. Lance could help pass the time by telling the girls stories of the olden days, like when he had to bike to school in 10 feet of snow.

Remember when we met Britney? She was all blonde and perky and pure -- saving herself for marriage, even though she was seriously dating fellow teen star Justin Timberlake. Well, someone is about to destroy that image of the old Brit.

Meet lawyer Eric Ervin, who worked with Britney as a teenager. He's blabbing to the mag that Britney wasn't a virgin when she came on the scene -- it was all just a "PR blitz." In fact, Us is saying that Britney actually lost her virginity at 14 to her first boyfriend, Reg Jones, and all that smack that she and Justin were "waiting" was for show. The mag says they were doin' it from the beginning!

I feel so dirty.

Us has also uncovered a deep, dark family secret. After losing a child, Britney's grandmother, who suffered from depression, committed suicide. Why bring that up? For one, Britney has never talked about it in the media and, secondly, depression runs in Britney's family, and all of these things have led up to the mess she is today.

Of course, there's more dirt in the new issue, on sale Wednesday. Pick it up -- if you can handle it.

InStyle has ranked the top 20 most stylish celebrities and Natalie Portman has come out on top. Beating out Drew Barrymore and her pal, Cameron Diaz, Nat snagged the top spot because "she exhibits unwavering faith in the cut and quality of a great dress," according to the mag.

Here's the top ten:
1. Natalie Portman
2. Drew Barrymore
3. Cameron Diaz
4. Penelope Cruz
5. Jennifer Lopez
6. Anne Hathaway
7. Cate Blanchett
8. Sienna Miller
9. Helen Mirren
10. Joy Bryant

You know what's funny? When I first read No. 10, I thought it said "Joy Behar."

“I didn’t drink until I was 25, and I never drank every day, but when I did, it was bad. It would be a couple of days that just wouldn’t work out for me, waking up with a hangover. Drink doesn’t fit into the groove of where my life is going.”

A little good news.

You'll be happy to know that, despite rumors suggesting the contrary, Jennifer Lopez says everything is going just fine with her pregnancy, and there's no health issues preventing her from performing.

"Despite erroneous reports of Jennifer Lopez having difficulties with her pregnancy, we are happy to confirm she is very healthy and continuing with her schedule as planned," her rep told People.
