"If I can't flaunt it at 20, come on! I mean I might as well show it now."-- I Love You, Beth Cooper's Hayden Panettiere, on showing her goodies in her new flick
"I've actually never been taken on a date in my whole life. I have never had a one-night stand. I'm a real relationship person -- contrary to public perception . . . I get kind of emotionally involved very quickly, and I'm not going to spend time with someone unless I love them. But it's not hard for me to fall in love."-- Sienna Miller, to the July issue of Vogue, on how easy it is for her to find love, but how nobody is shelling at $30 bucks for dinner and a movie
Megan Fox almost doesn't look real in this photo from last night's Transformers 2 premiere in Berlin. Hello, legs!
And, in addition to the fact the actress is this damn sexy, Megan says she's also available.
"I'm currently what you would call single I guess," she said.
Which is bad news for her on-again off-again fiance, Brian Austin Green, but good news for every other breathing human. And, perhaps, costar Shia LaBeouf?
Just ridiculous.
"I think women are afraid to say that they don't want children because they're going to get shunned. But I think that's changing too now. I have more girlfriends who don't have kids than those that do. And honestly? We don't need any more kids. We have plenty of people on this planet."
-- Cameron Diaz, in the new issue of Cosmopolitan, on not giving in to the social pressure to have kids
I think this is a really interesting topic. I have some friends who don't want kids either. They like other people's children, but are more than happy to say goodbye at the end of the day.
Should they feel guilty about this? Must women feel like it's their job to procreate?
"That I'd be on The Hills."
-- After telling Entertainment Weekly she doesn't want to still be making fluffy movies in five years, Transformers 2 star Megan Fox says hanging with Audrina and Speidi is her worst-case scenario
Tee-hee.

"Let me tell you, TheReader was not glamorous for me in terms of body-hair maintenance. I had to grow it in, because you can't have a landing strip in 1950, you know? And then because of years of waxing, as all of us girls know, it doesn't come back quite the way it used to. They even made me a merkin because they were so concerned that I might not be able to grow enough. I said, 'Guys, I am going to have to draw the line at a pubic wig. But you can shoot my snatch up close and personal.'"-- Kate Winslet, to Allure, on getting the right, um, look, for her Oscar-winning role.
The woman said "snatch" -- man, I love her.

"It's that Chace Crawford guy, right? We're thrilled! [Daughter] Sosie is a big fan. We met him at the White House Correspondent's Dinner. Kevin and he had a chat. He's very sweet. He has big shoes to fill!"-- Kyra Sedgwick, on Chace Crawford taking over the role of Ren McCormack in the Footloose remake, which was originated by, none other than, her hubby, Kevin Bacon.

"I was at Stella McCartney's Paris fashion show with the vice president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, [PETA supporter] Paul McCartney and Kanye West. The entire time Kanye is going, 'They need more fur in this show'. He just wouldn't shut up about how he loved fur. I mean, he's saying this to me, the PETA guy and Paul McCartney! I was just so grossed out by him. I'm like, 'You're an idiot!' There are so many people who I think are a waste of skin and he's up there. I should wear him. Go on, donate yourself Kanye. People can wear your fur."--- Animal-lover and vegetarian Pink, to Australia's FHM, on Kanye West's pro-fur tirade at a recent fashion show
Oh, how I love her.

"Will I miss it? Yes, terribly. It's the most wonderful job ever in show business."-- Jay Leno, in an interview about leaving The Tonight Show.
Jay will take his place behind the desk one more time tonight, after holding court there for 17 years. It was a good run, Jay!
"The truth is, the psychotic woman that I truly am comes out when I'm not working. When I'm not working, I go crazy."
-- Lady Gaga, in the new issue of Rolling Stone, scaring us a bit by teasing what she could be like if she wasn't so busy with her music
"No one knows that woman; she's a complete ice queen, which is perfect. Why should she be any more? She doesn't owe us anything."--- Evangeline Lilly, to Women's Health, on Angelina Jolie

"I think I would have had sex a lot earlier. I think I would have been much more in touch with myself. I think I wouldn't have had issues with weight - I carried this protective 20 pounds [in college]. It was all connected. I think I would have lost my virginity earlier than I did at 22."-- Brooke Shields, to Health, on being something of a late bloomer -- and not loving it!
This is a good topic for today -- are you happy with when you lost your virginity? Too early? Too late? Not yet? Let's talk a little -- share!
"People who put labels on themselves limit themselves. If you are a woman who's been labeled as a sex symbol, for instance -- I mean, I am not saying that's the label people would apply to me. But if you see yourself that way, inevitably you get to a point when you are no longer a sex symbol. And if you can't move past that, you're putting a limit on yourself; you're arresting your development. And that's where I think a lot of women get in trouble. I mean, I'm not 25 years old anymore, nor do I want to be. I wouldn't even want to go back to being 30. You know what I mean? That journey -- I've done it already. I don't want to do it again. It's a lot of work to get through it, and I am excited about moving forward. I think that people get caught up in getting back to some place that they already passed. Or to a place where you cannot stay."-- Cameron Diaz, to the June issue of Vogue, on evolving as an actress and as a woman.
"I've had to learn a hard lesson in that I'm not allowed to open car doors anymore. It was so hard for me to allow someone to take care of me. It's not because I can't take care of myself. But Jesse was like, 'Just let me do this.'"
-- Sandra Bullock, in the new issue of Harper's Bazaar, making us all wish the men in our lives were just like Jesse James [cue Cher song here].
"I don't want to have to be like a Scarlett Johansson - who I have nothing against -- but I don't want to have to go on talk shows and pull out every single SAT word I've every learned to prove, like, 'Take me seriously, I am intelligent, I can speak.' I don't want to have to do that. I resent having to prove that I'm not a retard - but I do. And part of it is my own fault. I'm just really confident sexually, and I think that sort of oozes out of my pores. It's just there. It's something I don't have to turn on."
-- Megan Fox, to the new issue of Esquire, on dealing with stardom on her terms.
"I'm looking for an encyclopedia and a dictionary. A bit of the Boy Scouts Handbook. A person who is conscientious about the trail he leaves behind him. Love. Unconditional kindness. Basically, I'm looking for the qualities I revere in my friends."
-- Renee Zellweger, to Glamour, on what she's looking for in a man

"I'll never be back to 100 percent or have full recovery. I can't zipper my zipper or button my shirt without extreme pain. But I chalk it up as my own s---. These things had to happen. This accident is what I needed in my life. I'm not in control. For the first time, I can admit that and know that. I'm a fallible individual, and the hand is like a tattoo that says MISTAKE. It's something I'll have to live with for the rest of my life."--Transformers star Shia LaBeouf, in the June issue of Playboy, on how his little drunken joyride wrecked his hand forever.
It just doesn't get any dumber than this.
Check out this TMZ video of Paris Hilton, who says she's not worried about the swine flu breakout because she "doesn't eat that."
I was going to make the joke that, taking Paris' enlightened train of thought into consideration, vegetarians must not have to worry about chicken pox, but the sarcastic narrator on the video beat me to it.
Check it out.
"I'd be happy to go and deny it, because I'm not [gay]. But by denying it, I'm saying there is something shameful about it, and there isn't anything shameful. The questions about sexuality I find more here in America than anywhere else, because it's a big hang-up and defines what people think about themselves and others. It's not a big issue in Australia."
-- Hugh Jackman, to Parade, on constant speculation that he is gay
"I try not to look, but when I see these [paparazzi] pictures of Violet and me, I'm always smiling like a monkey, trying not to let her feel my anxiety. That was some really good advice I got about dealing with it. But now that she's older, she's more able to articulate that she doesn't like it. She'll say to them, 'Please stop flashing your camera in my face,' but they won't stop. Then she'll say, 'I don't understand, Mommy. I said please!' It's just twisted."
-- Jennifer Garner, to InStyle, about how she's desperately trying to give her kids a normal life, despite that fact that they are children of uber celebrities.
"People say, 'I love my wrinkles.' I don't love my wrinkles - come on!"-- Brooke Shields, to More magazine, saying the words we actually want to hear coming out of a celebrities' mouth.

"I'm already planning on it - practicing the rocking-chair-and-rifle routine."-- Ben Affleck, to Today host Matt Lauer, on his plan for when daughters Violet, 3, and Seraphina, 3 months, start dating.
"I feel like a tranny a lot of the time. I don't know, I'm ... large? They put me in six-inch heels, and I tower over every man. I've got this long hair and lots of clothes and makeup on. I just feel really big a lot of the time, and I'm surrounded by a lot of tiny people. I feel like a man sometimes."-- Gossip Girl's Blake Lively, to the May issue of Allure, on not being one of Hollywood's tiny little things
"It's common sense. If you're gonna be drunk with your friends, don't get wasted at the Chateau Marmont and hook up with some famous chick. It's not rocket science."
-- Zac Efron, to the new GQ, on how he keeps his private life under wraps.
I like this dirty talk coming out of Zac's mouth! I might have to nominate myself to take my 8-year-old niece to see 17 Again.

"Michael Phelps and Willie Nelson are teaming up to do an album. ... They're covering The Doobie Brothers."-- Reba McEntire, at the ACMs, joking about how everyone (perhaps even the bong-loving Olympian) is making country music these days.

"I was like, 'Baby bump'? As hard as I work on my abs? Here's the scoop: Not pregnant. And not planning on it."--- First lady Michelle Obama, to the April issue of O, on adding kiddies to the Presidential brood
"It's like having a 4-year-old climbing on you all the time, and so whatever you're trying to do, you've got this 4-year-old and you're ... just trying to be patient and focus on what you need to do. I'm a dad, I'm a husband, I'm an activist, I'm a writer and I'm just a student of the world. This is one fact of my life, but it's not the totality of my life. It doesn't define me."-- Michael J. Fox, to Oprah Winfrey, on not getting beat by Parkinson's Disease.
"Robert Pattinson in a word: dreamy ... Look, I'm not gay -- but I'm thinking about it."-- Ryan Reynolds, joking to MTV, about who it would take to make him stray from wife Scarlett Johansson

"I'm a little disappointed in this photo. After the other photo [of Rihanna's bruised face posted by TMZ]? C'mon, Chris. Have a little bit of remorse, man. The man's on jet skis? Like, just relaxing in Miami?"-- Usher's reaction to shots of Chris Brown whooping it up with water sports weeks after the singer allegedly beat up girlfriend Rihanna.
