Sharon Stone proudly displays the suffering of a bunch of helpless animals at the premiere of Basic Instinct 2: Fame Addiction in Rome today.
Don't celebs know that it's completely taboo to wear fur? Even if they like the fact that it's soft and fuzzy and helps display their exhorbitant wealth, they should avoid fur for political reasons. We really hope PETA kicks your tired wrinkled ass, Stone.
Sharon has promised that she won't star in another Basic Instinct sequel. At least she has some sense.

I got these from I'm not obsessed today and am not sure if they're new, but hell, there's a picture of Gisele Bundchen's panties so it doesn't matter. The Bastardly doesn't seem to have them, so they're probably new.
Once again: Gisele is not dating Ron Burkle.
Gisele Bundchen's panties and legs that go on forever after the jump. They're sort of safe for work.

Josh Hartnett is quoted in Page Six lamenting the role models created by the gossip media:
Hartnett is right, after all, and we're just as guilty for elevating Lohan and Hilton even though we make fun of them. Page Six says that Hartnett may be influenced by his famous girlfriend, Scarlett Johansson, who has a long-running feud with Lohan.

Perez Hilton gets to hang with Lohan and Hilton and takes home a bunch of free stuff just for mentioning it on his blog. He's over the top, funny, and exuberant and that's why people like to read his unique brand of gossip. He also gets a lot of press.
He's been around for awhile and works hard on his blog. He doesn't credit sources as much as he should, but he also gets a lot of good gossip tips and is able to print stuff before anyone else does.
That's why we're calling the latest Perez-bashing for what it is: schadenfreude by jealous bloggers.
Gawker recently dug up Perez's dating profile on a gay website, and people have found one or two more. The guy is out and proud, and he does not care. He blew it off with style:
Hot guys only. Jesse Oxfeld need not apply. But Jessica Coen should. We hear she has a really big dick!
Perez had a humorous e-mail exchange with Oxfeld that Gawker reprinted last month. Sure the guy is obnoxious, but that's why we like him. Gawker takes themselves too seriously.
Meanwhile other blogs are calling Perez the "new Clay Aiken." That's ridiculous because Perez is out and admits that it was his actual profile.
The other blog thinks that it's poetic justice and moans that "Perez never links to us." These are the people that rarely source their pictures, either.
Perez doesn't care that his profile is public. We shouldn't either.

In Touch weekly has published some gossip from a "friend" of Jerry Seinfeld's wife, Jessica, suggesting their marriage is in trouble. The poor woman complains about being left alone to take care of their three children and her friend blabs to the tabloid:
The report details:
Looks like there could be problems brewing on the Seinfeld home front. Jerry’s wife of six years, Jessica, 34, recently told a friend she’s sick and tired of Jerry, 51, going on tour. “She said she gave up her career and now just takes care of her children while he’s on the road,” the pal says.
But it doesn’t seem like she’s ready to walk away, says the friend. “She signed a prenup that would leave her with very little,” the pal says.
The article goes on to say that the Seinfelds have a 25 room penthouse in NY and a mansion in the Hamptons.
It sounds to us like the woman is just trying to blow off steam by confiding in a friend. It's tiresome to take care of kids all day, and she has the right to complain. Her "friend" sounds jealous and should have kept her mouth shut.
Jerry Seinfeld, 51, met his wife Jessica, 33, in 1998 while they were working out at the same gym in NY. Jessica was a newlywed at the time and divorced her husband to be with Seinfeld. They have three children Sascha, 4, Julian, 3, and Shepherd, 7 months.

Yesterday we reported that it looked like not much is going to happen with the latest Jolie-Pitt wedding rumors. TMZ reports that it doesn't matter if the wedding actually happens, because the paparazzi are getting paid just for creating a stir:
TV shows and magazines are running stories on the rumored nuptials and buying photos from the paparazzi -- photos of the paparazzi swarming the town!
So here's the business model. Start a bogus rumor, then charge the media money for the pictures you take of the others who are also spreading the bogus rumor -- Capitalism, ain't it something?
Meanwhile USWeekly has one off live blogging from the non-event at Lake Como:
This reminds me of the google research frenzy I was in yesterday trying to dig up information on Gisele Bundchen's new date. It turns out she was just having a business dinner. I so wanted to run that story and like to think that a few people would have repeated it.
Here's Brad taking a flying lesson on March 15th. He has the same instructor we've seen with Angelina.

Gallo isn't all about pimping himself on eBay for an exhorbitant sum. His friend Mickey Rourke revealed that Gallo helped him through a rough patch by giving him 100k in a paper bag for a brief appearance in Buffalo 66:
Rourke recalls, "I was flat broke because nobody would hire me. Vinnie called me up and said, 'Hey, I got this thing but you gotta learn it.'
"Then he said, 'Are you having trouble with the government?' I told him, 'Yeah, I owe them a lot of money.' He said, 'What if I give you $100,000 in a paper bag...?'
"When my scene was over, Vinnie gave me a paper bag full of money and I got on a plane the same afternoon."
Where does someone get $100,000 in a paper bag? Obviously Gallo was keen to get rid of it quickly.

Matthew Perry showed up at the 2BFree after party in LA last night looking thin and cute.
Perry will be starring on a new series by West Wing creators on NBC this Fall, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. The series will also star Amanda Peet:
The show boasts a high-profile cast, which appeared on stage to greet advertisers: Matthew Perry, Bradley Whitford, Amanda Peet, Timothy Busfield, D.L. Hughley, Sarah Paulson and Steven Weber.
Not even one minute of "Studio 60" has been filmed yet, but NBC gave advertisers rough pilots of "The Black Donnellys" and "Kidnapped" to take home.
It looks like his time at the gym has paid off and we hope Perry's new show is a success.

Courtney Love, Scott Weiland of Velvet Revolver, Michelle Tractenberg, and Ben Kingsley were among the stars at the kick-off to fashion week 2006 at Mr. Chow's in LA last night.
Love was recently linked with "Capote" director Bennett Miller, and toured with Weiland in 2004. They look cosy and may be a couple, but we doubt it.
Love will be taking advantage of her sobriety by recording again soon. Page Six reports:
"In the gutters of this earth you can always find Love." She must be referring to herself.

Eva Longoria shows how arrogant and annoying she is in every interview. In the new issue of Allure she reveals that she's only the second woman her boyfriend Tony Parker has slept with, and brags about how whipped she has him:
She also clears up speculation that they will soon walk down the aisle: "No, no, no. But we know exactly what we want in our future."
"Our children will speak French," she adds.
Parker appreciates her "plucky" attitude, Longoria tells the magazine.
"Since I grew up in Texas, I'm like the people he's gotten used to around San Antonio instead of being a Hollywood actress who's selfish and arrogant and full of herself ... and screamy," she says.
What a stupid bitch. She's saying she's not a selfish, arrogant, and screamy actress. That's like saying she's not a petite brunette.
She has one of those cute conversations with her boyfriend like "oh, our kids will be into sports" and repeats it to a magazine like it's substantial information about her future.
I really hope Tony breaks up with her after he finds out that she repeats their pillow talk. He may be a good guy, but he can't be that much of a pushover.

Carmen and Dave were photographed outside of Fred Segal today. Dave is not the type of guy to go shopping with his wife and they're obviously doing this for publicity. We reported earlier today that Life and Style is claiming the couple is having trouble and that Dave confirmed that they're rarely together. You know that Carmen is pissed. Now they're doing damage control.
Dave has also posted a message on his blog denying the reports:
Let's compare pictures of the happy couple today with pictures taken of Carmen hiding her ring finger outside a doctor's office on 3/2/06.
(Thanks to MarySheepy at JJB for telling me about these earlier pictures of Electra and finding them, and Shadowboxer for posting the information from Dave's blog.)

I found a picture of Gisele Bundchen with activist billionaire Ron Burkle on the JJB Board. I dug up information on the guy to create a post - just in case they were dating. It was published when I found out that Burkle and Bundchen were out doing business. Burkle owns a stake in P.Diddy's clothing line and Bundchen is thinking of starting her own line too. Bundchen owns and designs Ipanema sandals, which sell over 6 million pairs a year. Picture [via]

Sharon Stone is said to have laughed at reports that Sienna Miller wanted dibs at her role in Basic Instinct 2: Fame Addiction.
"[Stone] was offered first refusal and chuckled when she heard Sienna was keen. According to Sharon, she is just a silly girl who couldn't handle Catherine."
The 48-year-old - who first played the sexy murderess 13 years ago - is also said to consider Sienna nothing but a "naïve little girl".
Go on and laugh, Sharon, Sienna is half your age and has her whole career ahead of her.
Stone also wins the bullshit award with comments attributing her figure to everyday activities:
Her top tip for maintaining that svelte figure: “I don’t take escalators.”
Stone's original demands for filming the Basic Instinct sequel included a $5,000 Pilates machine called "The Cadillac."
Here she is at a press conference for Basic Instinct 2.

Jessica Simpson brought her trout pout to Congress yesterday to hold a press conference on behalf of the charity she represents, Operation Smile. News outlets were aghast that she had supposedly snubbed Bush by backing out of a Republican fundraiser later that evening, but her controlling daddy insists that she just loves the dictator to pieces and didn't want to politicize the cause.
Meanwhile Simpson wants to jump on the adoption bandwagon, and admits that she apes Angelina Jolie in everything she does:
"I want to adopt and I plan to adopt before I have my own kids."
Give us a break, Simpson. You don't even have a boyfriend after that smarmy rocker dumped you by instant message. Chances are you're going to forget you even said this within a month.
Here she is at the press conference yesterday.

Reports that Pitt and Jolie are marrying in Italy has Italian villiagers and reporters all in a tizzy. A local hotel is cleaning up in what is said to be preparation for the wedding. It sounds like a hoax to us:
“They are cleaning the village and tidying up everything, something is going to happen,” said Andrea, who declined to give his surname.
We reported a few days ago that the couple was said to be planning a wedding on a boat in the middle of Lake Como, but that we thought the story was pulled out of someone's butt.
Other rumors include:
Brad Pitt's family supposedly wants him to marry Angelina right away. They think Brad should secure his rights to the children should the couple break up.
And skinny Angie is said to be planning plastic surgery should she have trouble shaping up after the baby is born.
Even if she gains a few pounds or sags in places, she's sure to remain the favorite pin-up of lesbians everywhere.

Tom Cruise stopped a re-airing of the infamous "Trapped in the Closet" episode of South Park on Comedy Central by telling parent company Viacom that he wouldn't promote Mission Impossible III if it was shown. The episode makes fun of Cruise's cult religion, Scientology, and suggests that the actor is gay. You can watch it here. Isaac Hayes, who plays chef, recently quit the show after the same episode offended his cult sensibility.
For their part, Comedy Central said that they pulled the episode because they wanted to pay tribute to Chef with different episodes that feature Hayes.
Meanwhile Cult News reports that Cruise may have his wide-eyed paramour, Katie Holmes, give birth on a boat or in a Scientology compound so he has maximum control over the event. Scientology edicts require the mother to stay silent during the birth and stipulate that the baby should be left alone for a day and removed from the mother for three days after birth. Katie is said to be resisting the separation from her newborn. She is due in a month or two.
Here are pictures of the two at the World Baseball Classic in Angel Stadium last night.

"For me, it's hasn't been as bad as everyone thinks," Urban admitted. "You know, it's not like their stalking outside our house 24/7, it's not like that."
Urban made the comments during a co-hosting stint on "Country Showdown USA." While he wouldn't get into wedding rumors, he did say there are some things he and Nicole just can't do.
"There are certain things you want to go do together, and you want your mate to be there," Urban said. "But mostly you just try and, you know, pick places where you shouldn't be going because it's going to be too crazy."
Things got crazy a week ago when news outlets speculated that Kidman was planning a wedding because she was nowhere to be found. It turns out that she was just spending alone time with Urban.
The latest rumor according to Britain's The Sun is that Kidman and Urban are planning a wedding in Nashville in June.

Page Six reports that Paris Hilton sought male companionship at the premiere of "The Godfather: The Game" in LA on Wednesday night. Her antics suggest that she's rid of Stavros Niarchos III.

At least she hooked up with her cousin, cutie celeb blogger Perez Hilton.

Matthew McConaughey showed his support for girlfriend Penelope Cruz at the premiere of her new movie, Volver, in Madrid last night. We posted pictures from the film and a plot synopsis a few days ago.
McConaughey and Cruz looked very much the happy couple last night. Contrary to recent rumors, Cruz did not look pregnant.
Cruz recently revealed that she likes to dork it up on the dancefloor with her friend Salma Hayek:
Hayek reveals, "We start competing about who can dance the worst and who can make the silliest dance, the most ridiculous moves, completely against the rhythm and it's not easy, not when you're Latin and naturally you have (moves). You have to fight your natural instincts."
We would all really like to see that.

Well Kate Moss really has reunited with Pete Doherty, according to Britain's Mirror, and she's planning a vacation in the south of France to help him sober up:
"Kate thinks Pete needs to be rescued," our spy tells us. "They have been secretly in touch for a couple of months, but the holiday was still a total surprise for him.
"She's really worried that he's going off the rails and feels a quiet, romantic break away from prying eyes is exactly what he needs."
Kate is said to be planning the trip because she wants to avoid the press. She is afraid of jeopardizing her newfound success if her reconciliation with Pete goes public.
Sure, that will work. People don't drink or do drugs more than usual on vacation.
Dating lesson for women #1: You can't change a guy.

Last week's pictures of Eva Mendez and Joaquin Phoenix getting into a car sparked rumors that they were an item. Most people dismissed the idea that they were a couple since they're working on a film together. Now that they've been spotted together at least twice, there seems to be a real romance blooming:
According to a witness, who is quoted in Britain's 'Daily Star' newspaper, "Eva was nuzzling into Joaquin and he looked like his eyes were going to pop out of his head."...
There was another incident similar to this earlier this month where Joaquin and Eva were seen having a luxurious dinner at one of New York's finest restaurants, 'La Esquina.'
After dining at the high-class restaurant, they decided to go to New York City's exclusive 'Butter' nightclub where they held hands and danced the night away.
They make a great couple and we hope they last. Here they are on 3/14 filming We Own the Night.

Before you get excited thinking this thing is actually going to come out, remember how unwatchable Chaotic was. Britney Spears has an ongoing lawsuit against US Weekly for a 2005 October article that claimed that Britney and Kevin made a sex tape which they inexplicably showed to their estate lawyers:
US Weekly wanted the lawsuit dismissed, but the judge just ruled that the suit could proceed and that Spears' lawyer has until April 6 to get more witnesses. The author of the article in question says that his source was solid, and Spears' lawyer is not calling him as a witness.US Weekly has refused to print a retraction.
Spears denies the tape even exists and is seeking $20 million in damages. US Weekly says Spears might be able prove the article was false, but can't show that they had malicious intent in printing it.
You know that this thing probably exists. These are the attention whores who bragged about their sex life in that piece of shit Chaotic. Let's hope for Britney's sake this whole thing just blows over, and if there is a tape it's been destroyed.
Britney was back in LA yesterday at a recording studio. While her friend has a muffin-top, Britney might actually be pregnant since her belly button is protruding so much. We don't know. US Weekly just reported that she wasn't pregnant, and has a C-section scar infection. (Thanks Perez!) It sounds like they're just hedging their bets.
Thanks to Marie at the JJB board for these pictures.

Ok, the latest news is that US Weekly claims that Britney is not pregnant, she's just all puffed up from a bad C-section scar infection and is drinking a lot to ease her pain.
She also stepped on a needle while barefoot and was rushed to hospital for the umpteenth time this month. Maybe she can call Pammy for help coping with hepatitis. We hear that a lot of drinking helps that condition, too.
The girl is a mess. We reported two weeks ago that her new perfume is called "In Control." We're not going to make an obvious, cheap shot. We just hope the stuff lives up to its name.
All kidding aside, the needle does not seem to have infected her with anything. Her husband also used her credit card to send her flowers.

The NY Post reported that Clay Aiken was seen out at a gay club in Prague:
The club is actually called "Friends," and has a boy's night called "Candyshop."
It's definitely a gay bar, though, and bills itself as "Gay Prague's premiere venue."
There's even a Flickr photostream for the club. (Which is how we got the image for the composite above. Apologies to "Friends" and their patrons.) The place looks like a lot of fun and we're sure Clay had a blast.
We think Clay should come out and be proud of his orientation. He's a talented guy and can sell more albums as a gay artist.

Jessica Simpson was supposed to attend a Republican fund raiser to bring awareness to the charity she half-assed represents, Operation Smile. Now she's pulled out, saying she didn't want to politicize the charity by associating it with the Republicans:
The reason for the decline was Simpson's concern about politicizing her favorite charity. The final decision came after a day of back and forth reports from her camp and event organizers.
This is the woman who complimented Interior Secretary Gale Norton for the White House's decor, so you know this was not her idea. Someone at Operation Smile knows that the administration is not well liked and wants to make sure they're not tied to the Bushies through Jessica's much-publicized appearance.
It's funny, though, that the headlines read: "Jessica Simpson snubs Bush." With an approval rating in the mid 30s, Bush cannot afford to be snubbed by a daft celebrity.

Rue McClanahan and Betty White appeared at the William S. Paley television festival at the Museum of Television and Radio in LA. Bea Arthur was listed as a panel member at the event, but we cannot find pictures of her appearance. White and McClanahan are shown with series producer Marc Cherry above.
Bea Arthur is currently performing skits and singing in a one-woman show that fans say is fabulous.
Estelle Getty, who played Dorothy's mother Sophia on the series, is still kicking. She is 82, the same age as Arthur.
The fourth season of The Golden Girls was released last month on DVD.

I was watching German kids' TV when an ad came on for a toy aimed at the under-served 'tween girls' temporary tattoo market. It's a DIY home tattoo studio called "Style Up." It features 9 stencils in tattoo-like patterns and even has a pretend tattoo gun that can be loaded with one of three different colored markers.
The ad says in German that you can apply the temporary tattoos on an arm, stomach or wherever you wish. They're also guaranteed washable.
This reminds me of the now-defunct "Baby Ink" hoax site that featured pictures of children getting tattoos.
This is a real toy, though, that will help train a new generation of German tattoo artists.

You know how I've been harping lately on what a loser James Blunt is? Well my point is made much more salient by these pictures of his March 15th appearance on the Fuse music network.
He's like one of those hot but slow guys in high school that you and your friends would mention in passing about once a month.
"James is so hot."
"Yeah, I know, but..."
"Yeah, I know."

P. Diddy is producing a reality show called "Celebrity Cooking Showdown." The show will premiere on April 17th, and the premise is familiar from "Dancing" and "Skating" with celebrities:
‘Celebrity Cooking Showdown’ will appear on US network NBC and air five nights a week. One celebrity winner will be chosen each night, and the final winner will be named by a combination of judges and viewer votes. It is said that several celebrities will reportedly sing for Diddy’s reality show.
Wow, celebrities are going to sing on the show while they cook. Guess we can't look forward to a "Singing with Celebrities" spin-off, since Diddy is trying to scoop up that idea too.
Here are pictures from a 3/15 photocall promotion featuring date a milf reality show star, Jerry Hall, and British TV chef Anthony Worrall Thompson.

Melanie C, aka Sporty Spice, actually has a career and has put the kibosh on a Spice Girls' reunion. Victoria Beckham, the infamous insect wife of dumb ass soccer star David Beckham, is easily influenced and tried to make it seem as if she had the same idea as Melanie:
But Posh and Sporty, who has a fairly successful solo career in Europe, decided it could be a bit, well, embarrassing.
A source close to the girls said: “Melanie has never really been into the idea of performing with the girls again. She is proud of everything they did together but she has moved on.
We were really looking forward to making fun of this, and are sorry it's not going to happen.

Sharon Stone, ambassador for the fuck your way to world peace program, is milking her last chance at fame as much as she can. She's following MC Hammer's lead by giving overpriced gigs to her sister and best friend:
Here's Stone at the world premiere in London of Basic Instint 2: Fame Addiction. Stone is easily upstaged by a British psuedo-celebrity in a see through top, Jodie Marsh. Ass grabber Christian Slater and Alex Kingston (of ER) are starring in a play in London together. Kingston is married to someone else.

We reported yesterday that the rumor that Belinda Carlisle wants Jessica Alba to star in a movie about the Go-Gos is not true.
You've probably heard that Alba is still pissed that Playboy didn't pull the issue that features her on the cover, but dissapointly clothed inside. She hasn't taken legal action but may be considering it. Part of the reason she's mad is that she's supposed to be a born again Christian. I find this hard to believe:
There are tons of pictures of Alba out at parties and shopping. If she was a born again Christian, wouldn't we see some candids of her outside a church?

I live in Switzerland. If you stay up a little later here on Friday or Saturday night (and in Germany and probably Italy and France) you can watch full frontal nudity and sex scenes on regular free TV that aren't as explicit as regular porn, but are high in soft core value. You also don't have to sit through a lot of bad plot like you're subjected to on Cinemax.
That's why I find it asanine that the FCC is fining CBS a whopping $3.6 million for a scene in Without a Trace that attempted to show a teen orgy - with no nudity whatsoever:
The episode featured scenes of partially dressed teenagers engaged in both couples and group sex.
"While there is no nudity, the scene is highly sexually charged and explicit," the FCC said of the show. "Moreover, the material is particularly egregious because it focuses on sex among children."
So get this - the FCC is fining CBS the most they've ever fined a network based on an idea they have of morality, without specific violations.
I saw an episode of Law and Order about a kiddie porn ring that showed a child and adult being videotaped. Under these vague guidelines, that episode would have warranted a fine.
The FCC has a new head, Kevin Martin, and this is his first ruling. The fucker spoke at the Jesse Helms center and admitted that the FCC is now trying to control television content. He's a religious freak and is trying to dictate what you can watch. Write the FCC and tell them that they have to have specific rules as to what is allowed on TV, and that they cannot dictate content. It's a scary precedent when they fine a show for a plot idea.

The NY Daily News reports that James Blunt is even more whiny and pitiable live than he comes off as in his simplistic music:
Blunt's limited scope as a performer became more glaringly clear. Since his ballad-drenched repertoire is sluggish in pace and "miserable" in mood (to use his word), Blunt's band tried to make things more "fun" by overplaying the backbeat. That threw the material out of kilter and forced Blunt to shout, coarsening his main selling point: his delicate falsetto.
We reported earlier that the former lead singer of Blur compared Blunt's shallow songs to greeting cards.
Now that the news is out that Blunt can't perform live, he will hopefully fade into the background. I don't want to endure any more of his lame songs running through my head for days.

Clooney has blasted Adriana Huffington for adding his comments to the Huffington Post. His remarks about lilly-livered Dems and the leadup to war were lifted from earlier remarks and cut and pasted together to make the blog post:

Samaire Armstrong is set to return to the O.C. this season as Anna. Her character will provide a much-needed challenge for bickering on-screen and real life couple, Summer and Seth.
In a recent interview with gaming site IGN, Armstrong revealed that she thinks she's tougher than Bilson:
Armstrong: I don't know if she can. [Laughs]
IGN: Wow!
Armstrong: I'm serious. Come on. I really don't think Rachel Bilson could kick my ass. She's too sweet.

The Sun has a remarkable piece of investigative journalism about a homely female reporter's date with a male prostitute. This isn't just any gigolo - he's one that captilizes on a resemblance to Becks:
“You can do whatever you would do with a boyfriend.”
The seedy soccer sham even offered to pull on a replica England strip during the romp.
He said: “I have got a kit and I would be happy to put it on for you. Some women I have been with even call me David during the act. I don’t mind.”
The male hooker, Paul, also said he's gay for pay but not uh, every day. He also models as Beckham for gay websites.
The Sun reporter only had dinner with the famous prostitute, and could not vouch for his services. He looks to be charming in the photos.

On March 9th we reported that Nicolette Sheridan bought a wedding dress. The official news now is that Sheridan and Bolton are engaged. We figured you wouldn't really care so it took us a little while to report it.
A representative for the actress, who plays Edie Brit in Desperate Housewives, confirmed Nicollette is engaged.
Although they dated before in the early 90s, Sheridan has only been with Bolton since Christmas of last year. What are they thinking? You don't get engaged after three months, especially if you're famous. This will be a trainwreck.
Here are pictures of the two in Miami Beach on 3/11/06. Who wears a shearling jacket in Florida?

No wonder they're fighing so much. The Enquirer is set to report that Tom and Katie got married in a tripped-out Scientology ceremony at sea eight months ago:
Cruise and Holmes, who met a few months earlier, are said to have exchanged rings emblazoned with triangular Scientology symbols during a Caribbean cruise aboard the sect's ship the Freewinds. (They supposedly wear their rings only at church functions.) Holmes, who once claimed she would remain virginal until her wedding day, wore white, says the tab.
After the ceremony, the couple walked across a tiny bridge — a Scientology symbol for the journey to "total freedom," sources claim. Scientologists John Travolta and Kirstie Alley are said to have been on the ship, where guests also celebrated Cruise's 43rd birthday.
Katie's family was not there, and of course Tom's rep is denying it.
They were married in some freaky ritual. Now when they break up all of Katie's thetans will come back to torment her with their memories of mass extinction and she'll never achieve a state of clarity like Tom Cruise.

Madonna is such a good mother. She's making sure her kids will be even more fucked up when they grow up by ensuring that they're indoctrinated into her sham religion, Kabbalah. Here she is leaving the Kabbalah center with her spawn on 3/3/06.
Meanwhile Lourdes, 9, has a stylist to help her turn into a little slut like her mom:
"I think her stylist was trying to go for 'The Littlest Pussycat Doll' look," says celeb stylist Shane Cisneros. "Lourdes has the ability to wear anything just like her mother - here, she's channeling mom's Danceteria days."
And yes, you read that right - the 9-year-old has a stylist.
Whatever the look, it's clear from this picture that Lourdes is precocious, says behavioral analyst and body language expert Maxine Lucille Fiel.
"The way she's standing shows that she may be coming into early womanhood," Fiel says. "I think she's now entering a very interesting phase of adolescence and I wish Madonna luck.

Sharon Stone seems increasingly erratic lately. This week she was in Isreal promoting some kind of program for World peace that involves her sleeping with everyone. Now she says that she wanted her sex scenes in Basic Instinct 2 to be extra nasty:
The sexy star was determined the erotic thriller should shock its audience and told the director not to waste her full-frontal nude shots.
She revealed: "I felt we should hold off on the full nudity for a while in the movie and then I thought that when I ultimately did do the nude scene it should be done in a startling way that would be disturbing and threatening."
Sharon is quoted by Britain's Evening Standard newspaper: "I wanted to do the nudity in a way that's quite brazen. I wanted her to be very masculine, like a man in a steam room.
Stone also says that she's not digitally enhanced in the film and has had no plastic surgery. (And her plan for world peace will be really effective.)

Renee Zellweger is said to have asked her costar in an upcoming film to take her out to dinner. The article makes it sound like she just wants to sample some of the food and atmosphere in England where they're filming:
The pair are said to be planning to sample some typical English fayre at Manchester's famous Mr Thomas's Crop House as soon as Renee finishes shooting.
A source told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "Renee and Chris have been pals for years but because they email or phone, no one realised.
"They met while he was promoting '28 Days Later' about four years ago. Renee is really cool and down to earth and they stayed in touch."
Zellweger and Eccleston starred together in the 1999 film A Price above Rubies, so they met over six years ago actually and it's not surprising that they're friends. We hope it turns into something more.

Angelina Jolie was flying while pregnant yet again yesterday. She should be able to continue her favorite past time until she's a little further along, but many people think it's unsafe. Flying is statistically much safer than driving, so we're not sure what all the fuss is about:
One of my pilot friends from a major airline didn't want to be named but said, "no way would I allow my wife to take flying lessons at seven months. It's not that it's unsafe, but with a Cirrus SR22 (the type of plane Jolie flies) there can be too much jarring."
Note that the "pilot friend" said that it's not unsafe, but that he would be concerned about jarring. We can exercise while pregnant, why can't we fly a plane?
Angelina's arms, on the other hand, look worryingly thin.
Update: there is some debate as to whether her arms are airbrushed to look thinner.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are supposed to be planning a wedding that will take place next week on a boat in the middle of Italy's Lake Como near George Clooney's villa:
This sounds rather far-fetched, considering that George Clooney seemed earnest when he said in an appearance on "Larry King Live" on 2/16/06 that the couple had not asked him to use his villa for a wedding. He also said he was friends with Pitt but that they weren't very close:
CLOONEY: No but I will now. He can come there if he wants. A bunch of tabloids, all the tabloids had that that he’s coming to my house to get married. I wanted to rent a bunch of tables, you know, and put them outside and then get a bunch of like kids or something dressed up in tuxes and watch them in tuxes and watch all the cameras come by.
From what Clooney said, (and Clooney is always right) it sounds like the tabloids just make this shit up. It makes no sense that Brad and Angelina would choose to get married on a boat in the middle of the lake near a villa that an aquaintance owns. It's pretty fucking stupid, actually.

Pitt was the face of Edwin Jeans, the "Levis of the East," from 1996 to 1999. He has appeared in Japanese ads for the Toyota Prius and for coffee, but only lent his fame to one US ad - a Heineken commercial for the 2005 Super Bowl.

In our first trial of the new Gawker Stalker, which combines Google maps with celebrity sightings sent to Gawker, we found this juicy bit of gossip about Uma's latest location, poor choice of headwear, and possible reconciliation with her ex, hotelier Andrew Balazs:
Gawker Stalker is clever, but not easy to use. A celebrity's name and their listed location are both links which launch a new window with a google image search. The sighting report is available by closing the new window to return to Stalker or by clicking the sighting date and time, which are not obvious links. Maybe Gawker hopes to protect celebrities' privacy with distracting features and bad usability.
Update: Either Gawker has fixed some of the usability issues with Stalker maps or I'm used to it, because it's easier to use now. The dates no longer link to a google image search and the sighting report is listed beside each celebrity prior to using the map.

Sugababes star Keisha Buchanon claims that K-Fed was checking her out - right in front of Britney and his infant son.
"He is probably all over loads of girls and if we can see it, why can't she?" Buchanan is very similar in looks to Federline's ex-love, Shar Jackson.
Buchanon is single after splitting with her boyfriend of three years, basketball player Zane Alliluyeva, a few weeks ago.
Buchanon sums it up nicely. We all want to shake Britney and tell her to snap out of it and get rid of the creep.
You think the guy would try a little harder to deserve the free ride he's getting. Britney may have gained a few pounds, but she's pregnant, she's rich, and she's still gorgeous when she cleans up. (Ok, maybe she's not gorgeous and granted she doesn't know how to dress, but she looks good.)

Ozzy Osbourne's band, Black Sabbath, was honored with induction after a long and difficult wait. Osboune most recently made the news with too much information about his sex life with wife Sharon.

Desperate Housewives star and Academy Award-nominated actress Felicity Huffman has revealed her battle with severe bulimia and body dysmorphic disorder. While Huffman is recovered now, she was troubled and sick up until her late 30s. Huffman's personal experience helped her identify with her character in Transamerica:
Whether you’re trying to be a size six or whether you are gay or whether you are transgender, all you experience is ‘I don’t fit in’ and ‘What I’m doing isn’t working’ and ‘I am below par’.”
Another article quotes Huffman as saying that she vomited up to six times a day at the height of her illness.
It takes a lot of courage to come out with that. Huffman seems to be keeping healthy now with a thin but very strong frame. Hopefully her message will help others who struggle with the pain of not being satisfied with their bodies.
Huffman, 43, has been married to renowned character actor William H. Macy, 56, since 1997. They have two daughters, Sofia and Georgia, aged five and three.

Cleveland's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame held its 21st annual Induction Ceremony last night. Inductees honored included Black Sabbath, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Blondie, The Sex Pistols, and the late Miles Davis.
The remaining members of the Sex Pistols refused to attend, and John Lydon posted an hilarious written message explaining why on his website. Lydon called the Hall of Fame a piss stain and cited the $25,000 cost to get a table at the event. Lydon also says that the museum is mistaken about the Sex Pistol's history and has never bothered to correct its exhibits.
Ozzy Osbourne used to hate the Hall of Fame too, and was so bitter that Black Sabbath had not been inducted by 1999 that he asked that they not be considered again. He must have changed his mind, because he was at the ceremony with Sharon and Kelly. They must have figured that if it cost $25,000 they should bring as many family members as possible.
Other attendees included Kid Rock, Dave Navarro (without his wife), Darryl Hall, and Sting.

Penelope Cruz stars in Pedro Almodóvar's Volver, a film that explores the relationships between three generation of women. Cruz stars as the daughter of a woman who dies and returns as a ghost to fix unresolved issues from her life.
Almodóvar is an Academy Award-winning director and screenwriter for About My Mother in 1999, and Talk to Her in 2003.
Volver will be in Spanish with English subtitles and is due for release in the US in June, 2006. The film opens in Spain on Friday and was screened for journalists today.
Penelope Cruz is drawing heat for starring in a different movie that celebrates bullfighting. Cruz plays the mistress of a legendary bullfighter in the film Manalete, which is filming now. Adrien Brody also stars. Cruz does not wear fur and is sensitive to animal rights, but feels that bullfighting is part of Spanish culture and should be portrayed. The producers are using old footage and computer-generated effects and promise no animals will be harmed.
Here are pictures from the film and from yesterday's photocall in Madrid. Pictures [via]

The British Empire Film Awards were held today. The awards are based on votes by the British public. The stars of Harry Potter were honored "for their outstanding contribution to the British film industry." Other winners included:
Best Actress - Thandie Newton (Crash)
Best Actor - Johnny Depp (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory)
Best Movie - King Kong
Best British Movie - Pride & Prejudice
Best Directors - Wallace and Gromit
Best Sci Fi and Best Scene - Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
Best Newcomer - Kelly Reilly (Pride and Prejudice)
Lifetime Achievement - Tony Curits (presented by Roger Moore)
The scene honored from Star Wars Episode III was regarded as one of the worst by critics:
The criticism did not deter the 25,000 voting members of the public, who preferred the scene to the dogfight in Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were Rabbit and the arrival of the first alien craft in War of the Worlds.
Maybe most of the people who voted didn't actually see the film.

Lindsay Lohan thinks that sex is just groovy.
What does she look for in a boyfriend?
"Confidence, loyalty and a good sense of humor, because I come with a lot of baggage," she tells Cosmo. "I have paparazzi following me every day. After I finish, I'd like to have a boyfriend. It would be nice to have that security and to have someone to go to a movie with."
Thats really sweet for someone who can't settle down. Then again, it could be the men she dates or the fact that she travels a lot. (Or that she has lots of choices. Why bother to pick one?) [via]

Reese Witherspoon is supposedy trying for a third child to try to save her marriage with Ryan Phillippe. We reported four days ago that the two were having trouble, which Reese characteristically shrugged off.
Now she may be trying to get pregnant again to give her husband another incentive to stay:
The stunning actress and husband Ryan Philippe - who have two children, six-year-old Ava and Deacon, 2 - have been at the centre of speculation their marriage is on the rocks for weeks.
But the 'Walk The Line' star, who scooped the Best Actress prize at the Oscars, is said to be determined to do whatever it takes to fix their relationship.
A source is quoted as saying: 'Reese has achieved everything a woman could want except for a rock-solid marriage.'
Reese - no one's marriage is rock solid. Cook him a great dinner and then have sex with him. That's all it takes.
Maybe Reese is too busy to attend to Ryan, though. Here she is looking goofy in London yesterday while filming a scene for "Penelope" starring Christina Ricci. Reese has a supporting role. Pictures [via]

Vince Vaughn has supposedly contacted Angelina Jolie's manager to let her know that he'll "keep the peace" in the war between the pregnant vixen and his girlfriend that takes place entirely in Aniston's head:
The reason - he wants Jennifer to be healthy.
The article [in Star] suggests that the "Wedding Crashers Star' understands that it can only be a good thing for his sweetie to finally put any bitterness she has left in the past.
You know that Aniston is obsessed with gorgeous Jolie and Vince is making a last-ditch effort to get her to calm the fuck down. Jolie thinks about Aniston about as much as she contemplates whether she gave a good performance in "Hackers."
Meanwhile Aniston is still harping on her pain.
Here are pictures of Aniston and Vaughn in Aspen yesterday. Vaughn needs to take some supplements because he's got that Eastern-European scurvy look. Maybe he can visit the same clinic that Paris goes to.

"The Da Vinci Code" was interesting and all, but we thought the writing was piss poor. That's why it's not surprising that Dan Brown is not only a lousy writer, he's also incapable of coming up with his own ideas. At least that's what co-authors of the 1982 book "The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail" are claiming.
For his part, Brown admitted today to reading the book as part of the research for the "Da Vinci Code," but called the plaguarism charge "completely fanciful.":
That idea is part of the central theme of the earlier book, whose co-authors Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh are suing Random House, the publisher of both books.
Admitting to reading the book but saying you didn't copy it is a weak argument. Brown might have changed enough to make it seem like he had some original ideas, but he still cheated.
Unfortunately Brown may win the case on sheer looks alone. "The Holy Blood And The Holy Grail" co-author Richard Leigh is pictured above. [via]
The co-authors of "The Holy Blood" are seeking an injuction to insure that their material is no longer used. If the case is sucessful, the scheduled May 19th of "DaVinci Code" film starring Tom Hanks and Ian McKellen could be delayed.

Sean Connery just had a benign kidney tumor removed. He is recovering nicely and has a sense of humor about his medical condition:
The former 007 made a full recovery from the operation, which took place in a private hospital in New York after doctors discovered the lump a few weeks ago.
The Scottish star is now back at home in the Bahamas.
Connery, 75, said: "I was opened in five places, including a tube up my d**k."
He sounds like he's doing well and will make a full recovery.
New Bond Daniel Craig is attractive, but no one can compete with Sean Connery, the hottest Bond ever.

Paris obviously doesn't want to be photographed as she enters the Modern Institute of Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills. According to the Institute's website they are careful about patient confidentiality and strive for a natural surgery result:
Your surgical outcome should result in an improved, natural looking appearance.
The clinic advertises a full range of procedures on their website, including nose jobs, eye lifts, breast jobs, and liposuction. From the looks of the staff, they don't do that good of a job. (Unless that's a guy.)
They also offer non-surgical detoxification and nutritional supplements, and it's possible that Paris was just popping in for some vitamins. Pictures [via] and PopSugar reported this first.

Page Six is reporting that J.Lo's performance in the upcoming film "El Caliente" is Oscar-worthy. They also think it's big news that she fired her diva hairdresser:
It must be such a stretch for J.Lo to play the wife of a Latin singer.
Here are J.Lo and Marc sunbathing, with Marc looking scary and threatening as usual. When are these two going to break up already? There are also silly pictures of Marc taking pictures of the paparrazi. That's so 2003. Pictures [via]
Two more after the jump.

I really dislike James Blunt and think the lyrics to "You're Beautiful" convey what a loser he is. That's why I'm pleased to reprint the apt remarks of former Blur lead-singer, Graham Coxon:
Meanwhile, Oprah also agrees that Blunt is miserable.

I don't enjoy giving Paris so much air time, but she's hard to ignore. Her daily escapades provide a lot to write about. In the latest Paris News, she has broken a toe and is bemoaning the fact that she can't fit into her high-heeled Choos:
The wealthy blonde insists style comes before comfort, but the swelling is so bad she can barely get her shoes on, let alone walk in them.
Hilton says, "It's the size of a watermelon. How am I going to wear my Jimmy Choo's?"
Paris' feet are huge too. Most stores don't even carry her size - a whopping 11M.

George Clooney just got a lot of press for being a womanizing scum, and he should lay low until the scandal with Teri Hatcher subsides. Instead of doing the smart thing and waiting until it blows over, he's opening his big mouth as usual:
"Just look at the way so many Democrats caved in the runup to the war. In 2003, a lot of us were saying, where is the link between Saddam and Bin Laden? What does Iraq have to do with 9/11? We knew it was bulls—.
"Which is why it drives me crazy to hear all these Democrats saying, 'We were misled.' It makes me want to shout, 'F— you, you weren't misled. You were afraid of being called unpatriotic.'"
I'm a proud liberal like Clooney, and he's totally right that the whole situation was obvious and the Dems have no spine, but he should shut the hell up until he has more credibility. Right now he's just a shrieking celebrity. Plus I really don't like him even if I share his politics.
Clooney is known for his political outburts. He made an impassioned speech after Princess Diana's death in which he blamed the paparrazi for her death. Some tabloids boycotted him afterwards in protest.

Ben Affleck appears in a mildly funny new ad airing in England for a spray deodorant called "Lynx." In the commercial he carries around a little counter which he uses to count off every glance he gets from admirers around town. At the end of the commercial he's bested by a scrawny-looking guy who uses the deodorant.
We hope Ben gets some film work soon. [via]
Less than 100 people had viewed this before we linked it, and there are no clicks from other sources, so you get to see it here first.

Halle Berry, Josh Lucas, Robert Duvall, and Aaron Eckhart attended the "Thank you for Smoking" premier after-party in NY at the MOMA last night.
"Thank you for Smoking" portrays a tobacco lobbyist in a positive light, and takes a humorous stance on the taboo subject of the dangers of smoking. Critics like the film, which is supposed to be side-splittingly funny.
William H. Macy, Rob Lowe and Katie Holmes are also featured in the film.
Three more after the jump.

More photos surfaced of Mariah and Pharrell filming "Say Something," the next single off Mariah's multi-platinum album, "The Emancipation of Mimi." Mariah looks healthy and more toned in a side-slit bathing suit. Coveted Louis Vuitton purses and a slew of gorgeous shoes are featured in the video. Snoop Dog was rumored to have a spot in "Say Something," and he lends his talent to the track, but we haven't found pictures of him with Carey and Pharrell. He may be edited into the video later.
We may have spoken too soon when we speculated that Pharrell and Carey were an item. Although they were pictured holding hands after the shoot, it may have been just for publicity as the two are both said to be involved with other people. Pictures [via]
Six more pictures after the jump.

Britney Spears does not know how to cut her losses. Instead, she's attempting to miminize them by putting Kevin on a budget:
Page Six goes on to quote a source that witnessed Britney screaming at Kevin on her cell phone for not visiting her all day.
Obviously things are strained between Britney and Kevin. There's also been a lot of speculation that she's pregnant. The latest news is that she told someone at the Four Season's spa that she's pregnant and that she cancelled a photoshoot because of her growing midsection.
While some call the latest photos of Britney in a bikini inconclusive, a video of Britney walking in Hawaii on March 4th shows the pop star with a discernable bump as she moves around:

We cannot contain our delight at today's news that Cameron and Justin are taking advantage of the brief ice skating "craze" to create and star in a ice skating-themed romance movie:
By the time they finish this flop the public will not give a shit about ice skating. The Olympics are finished, Skating with Celebrities has wrapped, and no one will care about ice skating a month from now. The only reason people will watch this is to see Cameron in tiny outfits.
Everyone also knows that it's incredibly stupid to make a film with your significant other. The Sun recaps:
