We have sort of exclusive googled-derived pictures of the Namibian resort that Brad and Angelina have booked out just in case Angelina decides to give birth in Africa.
The world's most famous couple have holed up in the "Burning Shore Lodge" in Namibia. Angelina is said to be uncertain if she wants to give birth in Africa or France, and Brad is along for the ride. They have a jet on standby in case they choose to return for Paris in time for the birth of their first biological child.
Reports say Angelina and Brad have booked up all "seven" rooms in the resort for three months, but there are seven rooms and five suites, so the reports are probably mistaken.
A modern, luxurious establishment, this ocean-side lodge is locatedon Long Beach just south of the unique quaint town of Swakopmund.
It offers 7 Luxury Rooms and 5 Luxury Suites, all enjoying private bathroom facilities.
Prices range from a modest $134 to $268 per night for two people. By our crude calculations, a three month stay in the entire hotel would cost around $240,000 USD.
The couple have been plagued by fighting and breakup rumors, which initially seemed like heresay but have come to ring true to us.
In Touch reports that Brad and Angelina are fighting over common issues like:
Angelina feels trapped:
As her due date nears, the magazine reports that friends say Angelina Jolie is starting to feel trapped in her relationship with Brad Pitt. She even insisted he go to Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic to check out real estate because “she wanted her space.”
An Illegitimate baby:
They can’t seem to agree on anything lately,” says another confidante, adding that the pair has been arguing about everything from where baby, [sic] to whether or not to marry before the birth.
Hopefully some time away from the paparazzi and pressures of the city will help bring their relationship back on solid ground.
Here are our exclusively google-found pictures of the resort where Brad and Angelina are staying.
Six more pictures after the jump.

Jessica Simpson is being sued by a clothing company for $100 million for breach of contract:
Under the terms of the agreement, Simpson was supposed to be "actively involved" in promoting the garb, including wearing items from the line at "public events, shows and appearances" whenever "reasonably practicable..."
The company contends the Dukes of Hazzard star even refused to be photographed wearing items from the JS by Jessica Simpson and Princy collections, and that when asked by the press to name her favorite brand of jeans at an event last year, she replied "True Religion," rather than "Princy."
Now Mischa Barton realizes that she has to talk about Keds as part of her endorsement deal, but Jessica Simpson has a clothing line named after her and still can't remember to plug it.
Simpson might just be fed up with endorsements. She sued an autoracing company two years ago for not paying her a mere $140,000 for wearing a T-Shirt with their logo on it in one of her videos.
Here she is in an older photo shoot for "Lovable Bras." At least that's a product she doesn't have to worry about wearing out.

Kevin Federline and Britney Spears are reportedly fighting because KFed feels that Britney steals all the attention at events promoting his album. Both Star Magazine and Life and Style report that Federline feels lame because he can't get any recognition on his own. The gossip rags have a similar take on Kevin's promotional appearance at Club X in Dallas on April 1st.
Life and Style reports:
“But when Britney walked in, the crowd went crazy.”
“It’s always about Britney — or Britney and Kevin as a couple — but these events are about Kevin,” says a K-Fed insider, who adds that Kevin arrived at the club solo to keep the spotlight on him only. (Brit arrived about half an hour later.) “I’m not even sure Kevin thought she was coming, because he was just focusing on himself.”
"He didn't want her there to steal his thunder. He feels that whenever Britney is around, she inevitably gets all the attention. However, a source close to Britney, 24, says she's the one who's mad, thanks to Kevin, 28, and his oversize ego.
"What he doesn't seem to understand," the source fumes, "is that the only reason anyone is interested in him is because he's Britney Spears' husband. He would not have an album if it weren't for Britney."
While Britney's right about being the bigger star, she has mistaken ideas about where she should focus her efforts. She seems to think her forgettable drop-in appearance on Will and Grace is the beginning of an actual acting career:
“She hasn’t stretched this much since she took on the role of impressive pop singer.”
— Neal Justin, staff writer, Minneapolis Star Tribune
“She has no presence, she struck awkward poses in terribly unflattering outfits and the drawl wasn’t very convincing.”
— Matt Roush, senior TV critic, tvguide.com
In case you doubt these negative reviews, you can watch Britney's "acting" for yourself. She is a bigger star than her husband - but she's a pop singer, not an actress:
Pink visited a Toronto area private high school on Friday to spread her mixed message of sexy female rebellion. It's nice that she's trying to reach the youth, but she didn't say anything we haven't heard before, and her visit seemed more like another photo op to promote her album:
"Guys are going to like us anyway. We don't have to take our clothes off for them to like us and chase us around. It's gonna happen," she said.
Pink, there's a big difference between being 26 and being 16. There's a lot of pressure on young girls to look and act a certain way, and your comments seem simplistic and dismissive. Then again, maybe we're just sick of reading about everything you say.
Pink also performed at the Much Music studios that same day.
Here are pictures from Pink's high school talk and her arrival at Much Music. The Much Music pictures are after the jump.

Carmen Electra, who recently admitted to having a crush on Joan Jett as a teenager, and who kissed Victoria Silvstedt on French TV (link leads to YouTube), performed a show with her burlesque troupe, Carmen Electra and the Bombsell Babes, at a lesbian event in California last month. She loved the reception from the ladies so much that she said she only wants to perform for lesbians from now on:
The actress said: "We got such a great reception. I only want to perform for lesbians from now on!
“It was awesome, it was wall-to-wall girls and they were just so enthusiastic and so much fun. I love them!”
She added, "We made it a little bit sexier. They went a little crazy."
From what we've seen, the show is a little racy but tame by most standards. My husband watched this clip with me, and lamented that the women didn't take their clothes off, and that there was no lesbian crowd visible. I told him that it was a video from a different show.
Update: Carmen rode the Sybian on the Howard Stern show today. [via]
Here's Carmen and her corps doing their thing:
Star speculates that Katie is having second thoughts about her involvement in the Scientology cult and having a Scientology birth because she's spending 8 hours a day at the Celebrity Scientology Center with Tom, which means that she needs extra convincing:
"If they're going to the center together regularly, it means that she is definitely resistant to something," a Scientology expert who prefers to remain unnamed tells Star.
"It wouldn't surprise me if Katie secretly wanted out of Scientology, out of her relationship with Tom, or both." The source says that at the center, "they are probably putting tremendous pressure on Katie to find out if she has any second thoughts about Scientology."
If the Scientologists were clever about it they would let off from Katie and let her come around gradually and think it's her own idea - kind of like Stockholm syndrome.
While the media focusses on the fact that she's supposed to remain silent during the birth, no one has really picked up the story that her baby will be left entirely alone on its first day in the world, and then removed from her and cared for by Scientology handlers for three days. That's even crazier and more cruel than asking a woman to stay silent during childbirth.
Fellow cult member Kelly Preston tries to clarify that a silent birth is all about being polite:
Here's Katie out shopping yesterday for paper goods. A commenter on the board where we found the pictures (although they're originally from Just Jared) said that her Scientology handler(s) had enough sense to keep out of the picture.

Kate Moss does drugs and gets caught on tape, but gets off scott free. She dates a notorious addict and miscreant, and still gets high profile modeling contracts. Her latest deal is with Calvin Klein for $875,000. She's 32 years old now so she doesn't have many modeling years left in her, but given her luck she'll get endorsement deals into her late 30s and early 40s.
Despite the fact that her looks are the only commodity she has, she smokes. She just doesn't give a shit, and she may even marry Pete Doherty.
Here's Moss in NY yesterday outside a restaurant in the West Village. She has a younger brother, Nick, who is also a model, but it was difficult to find information on him and we're not sure if he's the young guy in the pictures with her. (There's a picture of Moss and Nick on the cover of W Magazine, but the guy on the magazine looks older than the one in these pictures. Still, they look similar and it's hard to tell.)

Teri Hatcher broke down and cried at a press conference in Beverly Hills yesterday. She cohosted the press conference with former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev to announce the 3rd annual Women's World Awards. Gorbachev seemed more interested in her breasts than what she was saying.
Hatcher got emotional when talking about the sexual abuse she suffered as a child:
She was referring to a recent Vanity Fair interview in which she said she was molested by her uncle when she was 5 years old and living in Sunnyvale. When she learned in 2002 that a 14-year-old victim of her uncle had committed suicide, Hatcher approached Santa Clara County prosecutors.
After Hatcher came forward, the uncle, Richard Hayes Stone, pleaded guilty to four counts of child molestation in the case of the 14-year-old victim and received 14 years in prison.
“There are many women who suffer with these traumatic experiences their whole lives, and they keep those things a secret,” Hatcher said, her eyes welling with tears. “They spend some of their lives feeling that the fault of things that have happened to them was something that they caused.
“These experiences ... leave us with a choice, a choice to use our experiences to enlighten and empower and change people’s lives, and that is a choice I am getting behind.”
You can hardly blame her for crying, and it's brave of her to speak out. We were going to point out that she looks like Janice Dickinson here, but considering the sensitivity of the topic that would be cruel.

Lindsay Lohan may have struck out with George Clooney, but she seems to have successfully snared a different older man. Lohan, 19, has been spotted with 37 year-old Rush Hour director, Brett Ratner:
Lohan has also been to Ratner's house, but sources say that lots of people are in and out of the place and that her visits were innocent.
We doubt it will last, since Lohan's relationships never do.
Here she is outside a beauty salon in Beverly Hills this week.
Update: Pictures of Lohan out in Hollywood last night at a Flaunt magazine party. (The man pictured with her is a chef at the party and is not the director she has been spotted with.)

Victoria Beckham wore a tank top in 5 degree weather while in the French Alps this week. She paraded around on the snow for photographers, and wisely put on a jacket before hitting the slopes.
The mum-of-three didn't seem to feel the cold - or maybe she was just basking in the attention of all the photographers.
Still, unlike her most recent ski trip, Victoria, 31, at least made it out on the piste in the French resort of Courchevel.
Beckham wore a marginally more practical leather ski outfit for her last outing on the slopes.
Beckham has been rumored to be pregnant with her fourth child with soccer star David Beckham. We would say it's probably not true since she's been spotted drinking, but Gwyneth Paltrow has shown that you only have to be British at heart to justify fetal alcohol syndrome.

We know it's hard to believe that Kate Beckinsale is not in talks to play Wonder Woman since you read about it everywhere.
As we reported yesterday and are repeating so that we have an excuse to post these pictures of Beckinsale working out, the stories were based on an April Fool's blog post that got picked up by IMDB news. Here's what we wrote:
IMDB picked up the story and sourced JoBlo, changing the details so that Beckinsale was in talks for the role, but had not yet been cast.

You probably heard this already, but I just wanted to post some of the many unflattering pictures of Paula Abdul. Abdul was out at an after-hours party in Hollywood when she ran into a former Creative Artists talent agent, Jim Lefkowitz, who is said to have been offended by her attitude. Abdul said that "a man she knew" threw her against the wall that night leaving her with a concussion and spinal injuries. Her attacker is assumed to be Lefkowitz, although that has not been confirmed.
Her exboyfriend was out with her and also suffered injuries that night. It is thought that he was defending her:
Abdul suffers from a neurological disorder called complex regional pain syndrome that may have made her injuries worse. She used the disorder to explain her erratic behavior on American Idol last season, but it does not seem sufficient to explain away her current problems on the show.
Here's Abdul on March 23 looking out of it at "An Evening with Liza Minnelli" presented by The Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
First Paris Hilton thinks she's on par with Charlize Theron when the biggest movie to her credit is "House of Wax" and the upcoming "Pledge This" and now she thinks she's an international pop star despite not having released an album:
"I'm an icon. You either have it or you don't. It's something you're born with."
Unfortunately her album might actually be a hit. With Three 6 Mafia on board, they will add beats and remaster her voice so that it sounds nothing like the original.

Jessica Simpson needs to work on getting her own identity. First she admits that she apes Angelina Jolie in everything she does - and poorly, we might add - and now she's copying her estranged husband, Nick Lachey, by chronicling her breakup pain in her new album:
"I think that with my music, you can't help but tell people a story about your life," Simpson said. "I believe that every artist, that's their artistry — it comes out of them naturally, through lyrics, through music, through instrumentation. So with this next record, you will see and hear a lot of things I've been going through. And if that can offer any inspiration to anybody else going through the same situations, so be it. That's why I'm here."
It makes sense that she would want to sing about her pain, but it's more likely that she heard what Nick's new album was all about and thought it sounded like a good idea.
Here's Jessica Simpson on April 30th at a grocery store in Sana Fe, NM, where's she was filming "Employee of the Month." She seems to be back in NY at this point.

Sienna Miller got hair extensions put in while she was in NY this week. She looks much more feminine with a return to her long hair, but her tresses are looking ratty and used already, much like the actress herself.
Miller just signed a $4 million contract to become the new face of Pepe Jeans. Currently the news is only available in papers from India, so we're not sure if the ad campaign is limited to India or if it will be seen worldwide. With that much money changing hands, it's probably global:
Chetan Shah, Country Head, believes that Miller is not just a Hollywood celeb but a complete fashion icon in herself.
Here is Sienna in NY on April 6th and a second set of photographs of her visit to the hairdresser.

Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart Simpson, Nelson Muntz, Ralph Wiggum and Todd and Rod Flanders on The Simpsons got extremely offended by a minor veiled reference to Scientology written into The Simpsons and had it cut. Cartwright is a member of the cult of Scientology, and like Isaac Hayes she could always threaten to quit if her precious cult was satirized:
One guess who must be the first “freakiest”?
Cartwright certainly got the joke, but she didn’t like it, so the show dumped it according to insiders.
So even a purported allusion to Scientology got the axe at the Fox show.
No one would dare cross Cartwright - she's essential to the show as the voice of Bart and it would be impossbile to replace her. The Simpsons did kill off one character. Maude Flanders died when it was rumored that voice actress Maggie Roswell asked for a raise in 1999. The Simpsons' cast also held a strike in the spring of 2004. It was resolved within a few weeks with a new multiyear contract, the details of which were not disclosed.
Scientology is such a powerful cult that they can dictate the plot of the worlds' most popular and longest running cartoon series. That's fucking wrong, and those people need to be stopped. The best way to counter Scientology is by learning about how ridiculous and exploitive it is and talking about it with people you know. It's not a legitimate religion and it should not have tax free status in America.

Eminem's estranged wife, Kim Mathers, spoke to a Detroit radio station yesterday morning about the couples second divorce. Eminem filed for divorce from Mathers after just three months. Mathers said she hadn't spoken to him in over six weeks, but that the divorce was unexpected. She also claimed that he is addicted to pills again:
"Right after he came home from his rehab, we started to have a few problems, and I thought it was going to be in our best interest to delay the wedding," said Mathers, who was remarried Jan. 14 to her high school sweetheart.
"But he really pushed it and I thought it was really going to be something that worked this time," she said.
Eminem, however, has not spoken with her in about six weeks, she said, and surprised her by having her served with divorce papers.
"I don't really necessarily want to get divorced," said Mathers, whose first marriage to Eminem lasted from 1999 to 2001. "I was hoping he was going to come home and say, `I got us a counselor, let's go.' But you know it didn't work out that way. I got an attorney at the door instead."
For his part, Eminem has released a statement saying that Kim's claim that he's back on drugs is not true and that she knew he was divorcing her ahead of time:
Mathers has had her own problems with drug addiction and has a lengthy arrest record that includes allegations of assault, cocaine possession, and drunk driving.
Everyone knows that you can't get back together with your ex and expect it to work unless you both get serious therapy. The same problems come up again in different painful ways. His wife realized that they needed counseling, but Eminem was unwilling to do it. It sounds like he was just stubborn, and thought he could get back with Mathers for the sake of his daughter without doing any of the emotional work required. It's ironic that he can tell the world his most intimate problems through his lyrics but is too much of a pussy to talk to a shrink.

Yesterday we mentioned that Orlando Bloom and Kate Bosworth attended a party by watchmakers IWC in the Swiss city of Geneva. Today we found the pictures from the event which include the lovely Cate Blanchett.
The theme of the night was 30s and 40s glamour, and the party was held in an aircraft hangar at Geneva airport. The band played big band music, and stars posed with classic airplanes.
Cate Blanchett is currently starring in the film "Little Fish" as an ex drug addict trying to reclaim her dignity. She will also star in the sequel to her critically acclaimed film, "Elizabeth," which will begin shooting next month.
Here are Blanchett, Bloom, and Bosworth at the party.

Jessica Simpson is so juvenile that she can come up with no better way to exact revenge than to crank call the woman who used to date her ex husband.
Simpson reportedly hates Kristin Cavallari and Star reports that she has been crank calling her!
Though a rep for Jess denies the story, the source claims: “She’ll ring Kristin up and just say nothing or try to order pizza or Chinese food and talk in different accents! She’s even gotten some of her friends in on it. The pranks are harmless, but I think Jessica likes knowing that she’s irritating Kristin in some way.”
We did this shit in seventh grade, remember? The fact that she tries to do accents makes it even lamer. Jessica you're supposed to do real damage to the woman who's dating your estranged husband. But he's with MTV VJ Vanessa Minnillo this week, so you didn't even pick the right target.
Here's Simpson at Barneys in LA today with her ever-present hairdresser, who is either carrying most of her bags for her or was more successful at shopping today.

Here's a recent Christina Ricci photoshoot that emphasizes her bobble head and gives her a creepy, other-worldly look. The guy who posted the photos notes that she has a tattoo on her right breast that's visible in the picture of her in a red shirt.
These pictures remind us of the Gallery of the Absurd's "Hollypops," although Ricci looked healthier in the face in the illustration:
As of mid March, Ricci was shooting the film "Penelope" in London, in which she plays a woman trying to overcome a family curse that left her with a snout like a pig. Reese Witherspoon has a supporting role.

Kate Beckinsale was the first celebrity Punk'd on this season's premiere of the MTV prank show on Monday. She was out to dinner with her ex, British actor Michael Sheen, when a fat guy hit on her while he was away from the table. When Sheen returned, he lashed out at another man, believing he was the one who was bothering Beckinsale. It sounds like a typical episode:
Distraught Beckinsale attempted to apologise, while Sheen fought with the original pest, throwing him into the pool as well. As he climbed out of the pool, looking to continue the fight, a mock waitress ran up to Beckinsale screaming, 'You've been Punk'd,' which left the relieved actress embarrassed and giggling.
That story about Kate Beckinsale being in talks to play Wonder Woman was a mistaken report based on an April Fool's blog post. Site JoBlo.com ran a parody article stating that Beckinsale had been cast in the role and attributed obviously fabricated quotes to the director, like "I couldn't tell you how many actresses...I'm talking married women here, promised to blow me left, right and center if I gave them the part."
IMDB picked up the story and sourced JoBlo, changing the details so that Beckinsale was in talks for the role, but had not yet been cast. Then we all repeated it, believing it to be true. It made sense, considering that everyone speculated before the news came out that she was the best actress for the part.
Here is Beckinsale out in Santa Monica with her husband, director Len Wiseman.

It looks like the only card Daniel Craig can play is the nudity one, because he doesn't know how to play poker:
"Everyone at the hotel has been laughing about a Bond who can't play cards."
Let's revisit Craig's various other public failings as the shortest, blondest Bond:
Despite the fact that he's quite obviously a wuss, Craig is amazed that he's become the new gay icon.
On the other hand, Craig sports a six pack and has no qualms about getting naked or filming graphic sex scenes.
It might even out, and we're willing to sit through the film for a glimpse of his goods.

Guess Kate didn't pay Doherty enough cash to keep his mouth shut, because he reportedly spilled the beans about their planned wedding while at an Austrian porn club.
Doherty claims that he's going to marry Kate in a ceremony in Scotland this fall and says that he loves to get high and have sex with the supermodel:
“A posh Scottish castle. That’s gonna be so cool.”
He also told how much he loved having sex with model Kate while high on drugs.
The waster said: “Drugs or sex — they are both great.
“The best is a combination of both of them. I really love sex on substances — nothing beats that.”
The article went on to reveal that Pete plans to pass his required drug tests by getting someone else's urine samples. He also called himself the new John Lennon, and "the most important rock star now!"
Kate is said to visit Pete with a purse full of bundled-up cash to help secure his silence about their reconciled relationship. She also has offered to pay the bill for Pete to have his teeth fixed. Pete rarely brushes his teeth and suffers from bad halitosis.
As one of the world's highest paid models, Kate has to be careful about her public image. She seems to have recovered splendedly from the cocaine scandal she suffered last year, and has just secured a new $875,000 contract advertising jeans for Calvin Klein. She will also face no warning or charges for the crime of using cocaine and the stupidity of being caught on tape.
Here is Pete Doherty with one of his many Jaguars outside his flat in London on April 2 and Kate Moss outside a dentist's office recently. Maybe Moss was making inquiries for Doherty. Hopefully he'll get rid of his terrible breath in time for their honeymoon.

Avril Lavigne probably is pregnant as we mentioned yesterday, because now TMZ is reporting that she plans to marry her fiance, Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley this summer.
She also is said to wants kids right away, which is celebrity-code for "I'm pregnant."
Lavigne -- who got engaged to her fellow Canadian last summer -- has told her friends to brace themselves for a traditional white wedding at an undisclosed church in Beverly Hills.
Avril is said to be planning a reception with circus performers, comedians and popular rock bands. She'll probably make a mint off selling the pictures.

Paris Hilton has overcome her fear of foreign languages and insists that she's still with Greek oil heir Stavros Niarchos III.
She'd turned out to support pal Bijou Phillips, who was performing in a one-night stage production of Hedwig And The Angry Inch.
According to IMDb, Paris said her boyf, who is at the University of Southern California, was at home concentrating on his studies...
"He's turning 21 in two weeks, so he wants to get all the work done before the big birthday."
Further rubbishing reports of trouble between the lovebirds, she added: "We just got back from the Bahamas.
We just got back two hours ago. We've been relaxing for the past five days."
Paris must be waiting eagerly for Niarchos' birthday. He stands to inherit $275 million when he turns 21. Paris is only expected to get a mere $50 million for her inheritance.
Hilton and Niarchos were last photographed together about a week ago.
Paris shouldn't be so concerned about money. She's signed up to add her name to a line of sunglasses to join the watches, handbags, leather goods, and cosmetics under the Paris Hilton label. [via]

On American Idol Tuesday night Simon Cowell told Ryan Seacrest to "lose the beard" in a veiled reference to his sham publicity relationship to Teri Hatcher. He got away with it because Seacrest had new facial hair, but he clearly was referring to Hatcher:
Cowell should not be picking on Seacrest. While Seacrest may be trying to hide his gayness, he's not hurting anyone. Cowell is jeopardizing his current relationship and taking advantage of a young contestant. His constant flirting with 19 year-old Idol contestant Kellie Pickler has royally pissed off his long-term girlfriend, TV presenter Terri Seymour:
The flirting has even sparked furious rows between the couple.
An insider told The Daily Mirror: 'He is really affectionate to Kellie... They are often seen having intimate chats in the corner.'
On the show, Cowell had praised Pickler several times by calling her 'cute' and 'a naughty little minx'.
Seymour, 31, apparently told a pal: 'Simon knows I'm annoyed and insists it's just 'fun and games' that makes for better television. But I see how his face gets flushed when Kellie's around.'
Last nights results show saw Mandisa, Paris, and Elliot in the bottom three, with Mandisa leaving for good.
Here are pictures from American Idol this week, including a visit from The O.C.'s Rachel Bilson and comedian Chris Rock and his family.

It looks like our country is the hip place to be because Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis are also in Geneva. Depp and Paradis were at the "Mont Blanc" watch company's 100th Anniversary Party at Palexpo last night.
Depp and Paradis, a French singer and actress, have been together since the summer of 1998. They have a daughter, Lily Rose Melody, who will turn 7 this May, and a son, Jack, who is 4. The family splits their time between France and the states.
Update: Depp appeared in public service ads for Mont Blanc last year to advance arts in education.
People speculated that Orlando Bloom and Kate Bosworth were broken up based on a blind item in the NY Post that seemed to suggest that Bosworth split with Bloom when she found out he had herpes. The two have not been photographed together in some time, suggesting that the rumor was true.
It seems that their relationship is fine, because Katie and Orlando were spotted in Geneva last night attending one of the jet-set parties taking place in the Swiss city:
The Hollywood lovebirds were wrapped round each other all evening, chatting intimately and laughing at a glamorous Forties-inspired bash thrown by Swiss watchmakers IWC at an aircraft hangar in the city's airport.
Other stars in Geneva include Cate Blanchett, Johnny Depp, Vanessa Paradis, and the evil Naomi Campbell, as mentioned below.
Here's Orlando out in London recently.

Naomi Campbell is still working as a model after hitting her maid so hard with a cell phone that she couldn't see straight and required stitches.
Campbell was in Geneva, Switzerland yesterday working for Mont Blanc. She wore the most expensive and dangerous watch Mont Blanc has ever made. Also present was model Marcus Schenkenberg, who looked bemused. Johnny Depp and his French wife Vanessa Paradis attended the show. We will publish pictures of Depp and Paradis shortly.
Campbell's scheduled appearance on P. Diddy's celebrity cooking show has been canceled, which may or may not be related to the abuse charges against her.
Campbell also made an ironic peacekeeping visit to South Africa to meet with Netson Mandela after the incident. The press was not allowed to be present at the event.
Here is Campbell modeling for Mont Blanc. The company should have hired a better spokesmodel.
Liev Schreiber hosted Dewar's "Hot Scot" party at Cielo last night in New York. Noticeably absent was his girlfriend of one year, Australian actress Naomi Watts.
Watts and Schreiber have been plagued by breakup rumors since Watts attended the Oscars alone. The NY Daily News reported a couple weeks ago that the two were seeking different partners and that a source said Watts found Schreiber too controlling.
Reader Millie e-mailed her take on the relationship. She thinks that the control issue is bogus and that Schreiber remains interested and wants to marry Watts, but that she has cold feet. She also points out a video of Schreiber protecting Watts from the paparrazi that was filmed in late January as clear evidence that he cares for her.
To further complicate matters, Watts might be pregnant.
Here's Schreiber at the party last night. Other pictured guests include Stephanie March and Fisher Stevens.
Reader Carrie hooked us up again by pointing us to these pictures from KatieHolmes.com of Holmes shopping in Hollywood yesterday.
As they've done throughout her pregnancy, people joked that she didn't really look pregnant and seemed to be carrying a beach ball under her shirt in the pictures that came out yesterday. In these latest pictures, you can see her protruding belly button through her top.
PopSugar does the math and points out that Katie is due any day now, belying the rumors that she's too far along and faking the pregnancy.
PageSix thinks it's news that Tom and Katie slobber all over each other in front of the press. Supposedly Katie looked vacant and wide-eyed during Tom's interview with Premiere magazine, in which he revealed his abusive childhood and made out with her:
Seriously, though, why is this news?
What seems the most suspicious to us is the fact that Holmes is shopping for shoes right before she's giving birth. My feet were incredibly swollen when I was pregnant. Holmes is seen with some sensible flip-flops, but she also considers some pointy flats. Girl - those are not going to fit after the baby comes!
Here is Holmes shopping.

In a transparent kiss up to the British papers for printing every word out of her mouth this week, Pink says that she wants to move to Europe:
I would definitely move over there.
"I love the UK and France - Paris and the south of France especially. There's not a lot of culture or individuality in Hollywood."
Pink, don't you know that Europe is already passe? The Jolie-Pitts just moved to Africa.

Hi publicist "dismissed the reports as nonsense," so we can rest assured that Tom's publicist doesn't think it exists.
Here is Katie supposedly out to do some shopping yesterday. Commenters on the bulletin board where we found the pictures note that her stomach looks weird, but it may just be her outfit.
Eminem has filed for divorce from Kim Mathers after a mere three months of marriage. It was his second marriage to the mother of his 10 year-old daughter, Hallie. Eminem should have studied his own lyrics, because he revealed much about his private life and his dysfunctional relationship with Mathers in his music:
I hate you, i hate you, i swear to god i hate you...
No one can hear you, now shut the FUCK up and get what's coming to you.
You were supposed to love me.
Now bleed bitch, bleed!
Eminem may have also revealed the reason why he reunited with Kim - fear of mortality and a feeling of responsibility for his daughter - in the lyrics to his single "When I'm gone":
Hopefully Eminem's daughter is cushioned from the blow of her parents' second divorce and this is not too hard on her.
Eminem and Mathers were married for the first time in 1999 and split up in 2001. Eminem received two years probation for pistol whipping a man he saw kissing Mathers outside a club after their first breakup in 2001.

Unless the Namibian government is cashing in on the tourism trend of claiming that the Jolie-Pitts favor your nation, Angelina and Brad are now in Africa. This means that the rumor that Angelina wanted to give bith is Africa may have been true and that we were totally wrong. This will not be the first time.
It is unclear how long they will stay in Namibia, or what the family's plans are while they are here.
At the weekend, wire reports emanating from overseas speculated that Jolie, who is pregnant with Pitt's child, was coming to have her baby in Namibia.
Alternative reports have suggested that the family is just on a visit...
Sources in Europe earlier told The Namibian that the couple had flown out of Le Bourget airport in Paris in a private jet on Monday night - believed to be headed for Namibia.
Jolie is no stranger to Namibia. The Oscar-winning actress spent time in the country in 2002 during the filming of the international feature movie on refugees, 'Beyond Borders', at Swakopmund.
Namibia is believed to hold particularly fond memories for Jolie. It was here that she took legal custody of her adopted Cambodian son, Maddox, in March 2002.
Maybe the Jolie-Pitts will get some peace from the paparazzi in the nation of Namibia, or maybe some enterprising Namibians will get out their cameras and start shooting.
Regardless let's hope that Brad is no longer banished to the couch and that he gets some loving in Africa. PopBytes posted these scans of a Star Magazine article that claims that Angelina is uncomfortable in bed due to her pregnancy (been there) and is having Brad sleep on the couch of their apartment in Paris.
Star also claims that Jolie and Pitt are fighting and that Jolie wants her children to grow up in Europe while Pitt is homesick for the comforts of America.
We were reluctant to admit that Pitt and Jolie were having trouble, but this might be true. Maybe after the baby is born and they've carved out a little space for themselves in Africa they'll be on better terms. It certainly must be stressful to have people follow you everywhere, and it can't be easy to move around so much.
Reader Carrie sent these pictures of Avril Lavigne taken on April 1st with what looks like a little baby bump! We first mentioned the rumor that Avril Lavigne was pregnant on March 19th.
Lavigne, 21, has been engaged to Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley, 25, since June 2005. The two have owned a home together in Beverly Hills for nearly two years. Lavigne has a small heart-shaped pink tattoo on her right wrist inscribed with the letter "D" and her fiance has been seen out with a wedding band on his left hand.
In a picture of Avril Lavigne and Hilary Duff out partying with their significant others on April 1st, Lavigne is the only one who looks sober.
It could just be a bad picture of Lavigne, but she's skinny everywhere else and we think she's pregnant!
Update: Carrie sent another picture from November for comparison. We're even more convinced. And here's a high-res version of the bump picture.
Dolby blogs about Federline's theft of the sample:
Now, Mobb Deep did it the right way and had his label BMG come and ask for a license. They paid me a fee and a royalty on the sales of Mobb Deep’s record. However K-Fed, as his fans affectionately refer to him, did NOT ask permission, he just went ahead and did it. He is therefore blatantly violating the copyright law. And laws aside, he owed it to me as an artist to ask if I minded that he recorded a vitriolic rap over the top of my music. It starts off ‘This is for the HATERS…’ and goes on to blast the media, paparrazzi and all his other critics, sparing no expletives along the way.
BMG Records have also had their copyright violated, as they own the master to Mobb Deep’s record. But BMG don’t want to rock the Britney boat so they are turning a blind eye. It’s pathetic! Turns out K-Fed has no management, label or lawyer, so it’s going to be hard getting hold of him. So K-Fed, if you’re reading this, I’m asking you nicely to take the track down ASAP. Or maybe you’d prefer me to come after some of your wife’s ill-gotten gains?
Dolby is touring again as a single act after 15 years, and finds it amusing that press outlets are more interested in his feud with Federline than the fact that he's revitalizing his music career.
Here is Federline's wife, Britney Spears, rotting her child's teeth and accompanying her husband to a promotion gig for his album at Club X in Dallas.

Guess the text messages that Paris sent Nicole in a bid to reconcile with her ex friend were just "words that she wrote" because Paris lost her patience with Nicole and has talked a bunch of trash about her:
"I've been best friends with her since I was two, but when I brought her on to my show, she got very jealous and turned on me for no reason.
"It breaks my heart. She was my sister. She was the funniest person to be around and then she let the fame go to her head.
"I never want to speak to her again - ever."
Paris - your sister's name is Nicky. It's very similar to Nicole and all, but they're different people.
Also, speaking of letting fame get to your head - what is up with this video of you taking your own picture over and over again?

Christina Aguiera has bought one of "art terrorist" Banksy's works, a piece of pop art depicting Queen Victoria in garters sitting on a woman's face. The artwork cost nearly $44,000, and Aguilera is said to be thrilled with her purchase:
Banksy has pulled daring and dangerous stunts to get his art noticed. In March, 2005, Banksy snuck his art onto the walls of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the American Museum of Natural History, and the Brooklyn Museum all in one day. Banksy painted scenes on the Palestinian side of Israel's security wall last August that created the illusion of a tropical paradise and mountain views on the other side. He was threatened by Israeli security forces soon afterwards, and was lucky to escape.
Banksy never allows himself to be photographed, presumably so he can continue his art pranks.
Here is Aguilera in NY recently.

Onscreen and offscreen couple Adam Brody and Rachel Bilson filmed scenes at USC and were friendly to fans on campus according to a student who was there:
Also, Samaire Armstrong was on the set filming a scene with Adam Brody. She was his girlfriend (Anna) in Season 1 (and part of 2 I think?). Anyways, in the scene, he gets lost and they run into each other. Not sure what the dialogue exchange was, but it seems like it could be more drama! (Like they really need more drama.)
Adam and Rachel were really nice. There were quite a few girls screaming over Adam, and he was really shy and quiet about it, just giving little waves. At one point, I was walking through the set between takes because I needed to get to a class in the area, and Rachel was right there, and I said "Rachel! You're adorable!" and she said "Thanks! Hi!" and did a cute little wave hehe.
It looks like Seth runs into his geeky ex-girlfriend Anna while touring the campus. Anna is sure to mix things up for Seth and Summer's relationship.
The OC's creator, Josh Schwartz, admits that he's having trouble figuring out what to do with The O.C. when the lead characters go to college:
He says, "I think we've got at least one more good year in us, so we're going to do some pretty radical stuff at the end of this year. The season finale is going to be the craziest thing we've ever done, and it will launch the show in a whole new direction next year. So I'm excited about next season. And then beyond, I don't know. We'll see."
The show could always follow the characters at university, which is the most logical thing to do. No one is going to want to watch it if most of the young cast is gone or replaced.
Here are Bilson and Brody on set at USC.

Perez Hilton claims to have inside information from an Us staffer who says an upcoming issue of the gossip magazine will include details of the new romance between Heather Locklear and short comedian David Spade:
According to Us, Spade has quietly been dating recently separated Heather Locklear.
"They've known each other for a long time," a source tells Us. "It was a friendship that turned into something more. David's sense of humor is getting her through a hard time."
A source who saw them on a date with some pals at West Hollywood hot spot Jones on March 24 tells Us "they looked really cozy." Agrees another witness, "It was so nice to see Heather happy. They were making out like teenagers!"
We hope it's just a momentary rebound fling for Locklear, who filed for divorce from her husband of 11 years, Richie Sambora, this February. Sambora and Locklear attended their daughter's softball game together a week ago, sparking rumors of a reconciliation.

We hope this story is not true, because it's quite ridiculous. Supposedly Cruise has ordered a custom-made pacifier for Katie Holmes to gnaw on during childbirth so that she can keep quiet while squeezing the baby out in accordance with Scientology edicts:
"He commissioned an adult-sized 'binky' for her to clench between her teeth, hoping that it'll squelch her screams," a source tells the mag. "In keeping with a Scientology silent birth, Tom is prepared to do whatever it takes to muffle Katie's moans and groans during the delivery."
Cruise's PR rep, Arnold Robinson, denied the existence of an adult pacifier. As for its manufacture, a spokeswoman for NYU's School of Dentistry told Lowdown: "We haven't heard of it, but it doesn't mean a dentist wouldn't do it."
Actually it doesn't matter if this is true or not, because we know for certain that Kate is supposed to keep quiet during childbirth and that's bad enough. I personally had a drug-free childbirth and it's possible with hypnosis and a lot of preparation, but I could not imagine trying to keep quiet in the pushing stage. It's really hard to get the baby out and there's nothing wrong with making a little noise.
Someone on the JJB board (board is down now or I would link to it) mentioned that Scientology was created by a man in the 1950s who was a failed science fiction writer. There's so much more to it than that, including nefarious motivations and some truly evil practices, but that about sums up L. Ron Hubbard's knowledge of childbirth.
The Scientologists also recommend a barley-based formula for babies, although many Scientologists deny that the cult discourages breastfeeding.
We really wish Katie the best and think it's terrible how much pressure is being put on her to conform to the ridiculous and misguided rules of Scientology. Childbirth is hard enough without having to be quiet and hand your baby over to strangers after it's born.

Jessica Alba has forgiven Hugh Hefner for putting her on the cover of Playboy in a bikini without her permission. Alba was said to be embarassed by the issue, which seemed to suggest that she would be found naked inside. She threatened legal action and asked for the issue to be retracted, but a kind letter from Hefner convinced her to change her mind:
"What was intended as a tribute to your tremendous popularity has been misinterpreted by some as something else for which we are truly sorry since we are among your biggest fans," Hefner said.
"In light of Mr. Hefner's personal apology for Playboy's unauthorized use of my photo on their cover, I have decided to discontinue my claims against them," Alba, 24, said in a written statement.
"This was never about money, it was about setting the record straight about something that was done without my knowledge or consent," she added.
Alba's lawyers were said to be in talks with representatives from Playboy, but have ultimately decided to avoid costly and time consuming legal action. It seems like Alba just wanted to make a point, and it has been well taken.
Alba has a different beef with MTV, which staged a kiss with the hot actress with an aggressive chimpanzee for a clip that aired during the MTV Movie Awards. Alba says the chimp stuck its tongue in her mouth and bared its teeth at her:
"Then I had to do it again and she grabbed both of my ears and screamed in my face and showed me all of her teeth. I thought she was going to bite my face off. I think monkeys should be left in trees."
Surely any human would have been pleased to take over for the reluctant chimp.
Here is Alba with her boyfriend, Cash Warren, taking out the trash. Hollywood Tuna points out that she's wearing a T-Shirt with his name on it, and that Cash is more than happy to let her do the heavy lifting.

26 year-old James Ransone, who is currently featured in the movie "Inside Man" and has appeared on several episodes of CSI, heard a woman screaming in his apartment building and came to her rescue. He was horrified to see that she was about to be raped, and quickly took action:
The would-be rapist took off on Eldridge Street with Ransone - who at a slim 5-foot-9 is not exactly physically threatening - chasing after him.
"I looked north and south and saw him running," Ransone recalls. As he ran after the attacker, he passed a friend walking his dog and called for him to join in the chase. "I screamed, 'Follow me! This girl almost got raped!' "
Ransone caught up with the assailant as he entered a building on Allen Street. He broke a glass door to get at the perp and then cracked him on the back with the metal bar.
"I said, 'You rapist piece of [bleep]' and heard a crack when I hit his shoulder blade," Ransone says. "He mimed taking out a gun and said, 'Do you want to go to jail?' - and made a bee-line for the door.
"I cried, 'I'm not done with you yet' and kept swinging," Ransone says. Then the cops arrived and the attacker disappeared into the building. An arrest is expected soon.
Ransone said "he did what anybody would have done," but he clearly went beyond the call of duty. The police were congratulatory and told Ransone he would make a good officer. He's sure to get more work after his heroic act was profiled by Page Six.

Antonio Banderas, his wife Melanie Griffith, and Alfre Woodard were among the stars at the NY premiere of "Take the Lead." The film sounds like Dangerous Minds on the dance floor:
It's been called a "hackneyed charmer," and "completey predictable, but charming" and is receiving somewhat decent reviews.
Banderas also visited MTV's Total Request Live yesterday, where he showed host Vanessa Minnillo some of his moves.
Banderas has two projects in the works. He will "return to Broadway in a new musical based on the 1995 film, 'Don Juan DeMarco'" and will play the lead in a new historical epic, "Conquistador," as the villianous Spanish conqueror Hernan Cortes who defeated the Aztec empire in the 16th century.

Now that Michael Douglas is wearing a beard to hide his surgery scars, he's trying to make it the fashion by badgering other men about their grooming habits:
Although he doesn't understand the young male's psyche, Douglas insists he's not jealous of younger men. He adds, "A lot of these guys use me as an example of who they'd like to have a career like - which is flattering - but I'm getting tired of this sort of respectfulness they give me. When they start calling me Mr. Douglas, I'm like, 'Hey! Shut the f**k up!'"
No, Douglas, you shut the fuck up. Just because you're getting old doesn't mean you have to complain about younger men. You've surely used some cosmetics in your day.
Douglas was in NY last night to lend his support to the UN's fight against landmines at a lavish fundraising dinner. He presented the Adopt-A-Minefield’s humanitarian award to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan.
Douglas' wife, Catherine Zeta Jones, must be getting sick of the crap he says because she wasn't at the dinner with him. Jones is filming "Mostly Martha" in NY and is presumably in the same town. Both Jones and her husband were said to be attending the dinner in earlier reports.
Here is Douglas at the UN dinner last night. He is pictured with Kofi Annan and musician Moby.
In a move we never saw coming, Teri Hatcher has said that she's not with Ryan Seacrest. I made up the part about her admitting that it was a publicity stunt. Hatcher was at the Comedy for a Cure benefit for Tuberous Sclerosis on April 2nd and found a business card for a singles dating service in one of the purses she donated for auction. She joked about its meaning, saying it signifies that she's still single:
In response to recent photos that were captured of Hatcher and the American Idol host kissing and reportedly dating, she said, "Well, I guess what's caught on film is caught on film and it would be hard for me to stand here and say that it wasn't me. I'm not a liar and I wouldn't do that, but I could say that I could still use the business card!" When asked if she was attached to Seacrest, she added, "I'm not."
She skirted the question by saying "she's not a liar" and wouldn't "say that it wasn't me" but still maintained that she's single. That's a strange way to deny that you're with someone. If it didn't work out between the two of them, wouldn't she say "We were looking for different things?" In fact, she could have used that excuse anyway!
Seacrest was seen on Saturday taking in a basketball game with Hatcher's costar, Eva Longoria. The two cheered on Longoria's boyfriend, at the Spurs game in San Antonio, TX.

Brad Pitt narrates a new PBS documentary, Rx for Child Survival - A Global Health Challenge, about people saving lives through healthcare initiatives.
In an interview published in TV Guide, Pitt emphasizes the program's intention - that we can all help out in small but measurable ways:
Did you learn anything from Rx for Survival? I did. I learned about how simple some of the solutions can be, like adding vitamin A to a child's diet prevents river blindness. As the documentary shows, vitamin A costs 2 cents for a dose. A bed net [to prevent malaria] is a third the price of a CD. These things aren't out of reach.
Are you planning any more humanitarian trips right now? What's next? No. My plan right now is to have a child.
Brad helps bring us from the fantasy world of Paris' lazy eye to the reality of children needing basic medical care and supplies.
We don't think it was just Bono who inspired his charity work, though.
The Rx for Change Website offers ways to help out:

Hugh Grant watched a ton of reality TV in preparation for his role playing a reality show judge in the film American Dreamz:
He admitted to The Sun: “I’d never watched them before but studied a bunch of tapes – and I enjoy cruelty.
“I like people being humiliated, I like watching freaks. The freakier the better as far as I am concerned.
“I don’t think they far enough – I’d also quite like to see the losers being tortured.
His other quotes reveal that he's not just joking around, and pays attention to the reality shows.
“I’m ashamed of that part of myself, as I’m sure we all are, but there are some good ones.”
“Wife Swap I particularly like. There was one where they took delinquent teenagers and put them through a 50s education, and another one where they put them through an army boot camp. Brilliant, really fascinating.”
Hugh Grant isn't the only one who feels guilty but can't look away. He sums up reality television well.
Here's Grant with Drew Barrymore on the set of their film, "Music and Lyrics By."

Sean Connery arrived in a tartan-wrapped Mercedes Benz 2007 S Class to "Dress to Kilt" at NY's annual tartan week yesterday. It was Connery's first public appearance since he had a benign kidney tumor removed in early March.
"Dress to Kilt" celebrated Scottish fashion with tartan clothing and kilts modeled by celebrities. Stars on the catwalk included Bebe Neuwirth, Anne Curry, Tatum O'Neal, and Brian and Allan Cox. The Coxes lifted up their kilts to show their white bums in a picture after the jump that's NSFW. Scottish rugby player, Chris Cusiter, Scottish golf star, Sam Torrance, and the reigning miss Scotland, Aisling Friel, also modeled at the show.
Donald Trump was at the event in a bid to publicize his golf course that will soon be opened at Balmedie in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
Sir Sean Connery was accompanied by his wife of over 30 years, Lady Micheline Connery.
8 more pictures (one has naked bums and is NSFW) after the jump.

"Ex" drug addicts Lindsay Lohan, Kate Moss, and Courtney Love are going to Hawaii together to give the world's paparrazi some well-deserved time in the sun.
Somehow Moss and Love consider themselves older mentors to Lindsay, who has no public drug scandal or stint in rehab yet:
Supermodel Kate, 32, checked into rehab last year after pictures of her using cocaine use were published, while rocker Courtney spent a month under house arrest for drug charges in early 2006.
Lindsay, 19, admitted to drug abuse and "emotional wreckage" in a frank interview with 'Vanity Fair' in February.
A source close to the 'Mean Girls' star says Kate has "adopted" Lindsay, while Kate in turn seems to be under the watchful eye of the newly clean Courtney, who also recently declared her intention to help Kate's on/off boyfriend Pete Doherty get off drugs.
A source told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "Courtney is determined to be a calming influence on Lindsay who has had a really tough time of things, and she also adores Kate."
The trio may be celebrating Moss' recent triumph over the drug scandal she suffered when a video was released last year of her snorting cocaine. All criminal charges against Moss are expected to be dropped and she should have no criminal record. Moss wisely did not admit to any wrongdoing when questioned by police.
Moss recently received a £1million advance from Virgin Books to write a tell-all autobiography of her cocaine abuse.

Bill Cosby's legal team has sent a cease and desist order to popular blogger Andy Baio of Waxy.org for posting the "House of Cosbys" video files. "House of Cosbys" is a cartoon that depicts multiple cloned Cosbys living in a house together, similar to the plot of the Micheal Keaton film, Mulitplicity. Baio is standing his ground, and says that "House of Cosbys" is a parody which falls under fair use guidelines. He points to many other parodies of Cosby, and says that he refuses to be legally bullied:
But because it takes so little effort to threaten a small web-based artist (or the blogger who hosts their work), the Net is constantly targeted regardless of just cause. Justin Roiland, creator of House of Cosbys, was forced to remove the videos because he couldn't risk the possibility of an actual lawsuit. And when Channel 101 decided to take a stand, Cosby's lawyers targeted their ISP instead, forcing the videos offline.
But I know my legal standing, and I'm not backing down unless ordered by the court. This is free speech and creative freedom, and even though it's just one guy's goofy labor of love, that's worth fighting for, dammit.
Here's House of Cosbys episode one:
Bill Cosby seems like even more of an asshole when you consider that he recently pointed out to Katrina victims that there were high crime rates in New Orleans before the natural disaster:
"It's painful, but we can't cleanse ourselves unless we look at the wound," Cosby told the rally of about 2,000 people at the city's convention center, where thousands of Katrina evacuees had gathered seven months earlier.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you had the highest murder rate, unto each other. You were dealing drugs to each other. You were impregnating our 13-, 12-, 11-year-old children," he said, in quotes picked up by Reuters.
This is typical of Cosby, who has lashed out in the past at what he perceives as a violent black popular culture and an unwillingness to change. Cosby has seemed to blame the African American community for their plight and maintains a dismal perspective instead of looking at more broad sociocultural factors and seeing the positive aspects of black culture.

Tom Cruise opens up about his painful childhood in an upcoming interview with Parade magazine. He could not rely on his father, who was unpredictable and abusive:
The headline-making celebrity says the poor treatment actually taught him a lot. "It was a great lesson in my life -- how he'd lull you in, make you feel safe and then, bang!" he says. "For me it was like, 'There's something wrong with this guy. Don't trust him. Be careful around him.' There's that anxiety."
Tom said that he felt like an outcast as a child and had "no really close friend." His battle with dyslexia served to further isolate him and was "an absolute affront to my dignity."
We feel sorry for Tom, and have some insight into his character. It's still not a good enough excuse for him to serve as a spokesperson for the cult of Scientology.
Liz Smith points out that it doesn't matter if Tom gets bad press - as long as he continues to get press. Tom made a fool of himself while promoting War of the Worlds on Oprah and The Today Show. War of the Worlds was a big hit though, and Smith predicts MI3 will be, too.
Tom seems to realize this, and has even pledged to go back on the Today Show with Matt Lauer!
Smith also provides insight as to why Cruise would be sharing stories of his dysfunctional childhood at this point in his career:
Meanwhile press-hungry Tom has confirmed that he plans to marry his pregnant fiance Katie this summer. He may not have have much time to spend with his new bride while he's promoting Mission Impossible 3.

The rumors that Nicole Kidman, 38, and Keith Urban, 38, are getting hitched seem to come up frequently, but this time there's a decent reason: Nicole has been granted an annulment from her 11 year marriage to Tom Cruise. This clears the way for her to marry again in a Catholic ceremony.
It is also rumored that Kidman's parents want her to make Urban sign a prenupital agreement so that he can't get his hands on her fortune.
Meanwhile there's supposed to be a scandalous reason behind Nicole and Tom's divorce that may be revealed by the surveillance tapes that were seized in an FBI investigation of the private eye that Tom hired to snoop on Nicole. No one seems to know what the scandal is exactly, so the mere existence of one doesn't mean that it's newsworthy.

According to FemaleFirst and joblo.com, Beckinsale is currently in talks with film maker who is said to be “very happy” with her.
Beckinsale has recently starred in the dark film series of the ‘Underworld’ in which she plays a sultry vampire…some thing Whedon is obviously fond of.
We hope Beckinsale gets the role, and that the film is action-packed and fun.
Here's Beckinsale getting a pedicure in Santa Monica and Lohan walking to her car in Beverly Hills.
Nicky Hilton attended a cocktail party held by retail consulting firm Directives West in LA last night. She donned her typical black satin attire with black boots worn over jeans. Nicky needs to liven up her wardrobe a little and call in some help with her boring clothing line.
Here's Nicky's sister Paris walking the runway at the 2BFree fashion show. There are also interviews with Kelly Osbourne, Haylie Duff, and an obviously drunk Tara Reid.
Looks like Pamela Anderson is too old to play herself in an upcoming Baywatch movie - because Jessica Simpson has been cast in the leading role!
Jessica, 25, will play a heroic lifeguard on Venice Beach, California — and may even copy the slow-motion running that made fellas such a fan of 38-year-old Pammi in the Saturday evening show.
In a further blow to Anderson, producers want David Hasselhoff, 53, to reprise his role as Lt Mitch Buchannon.
Meanwhile Jessica may have lined up another role for herself by purchasing the screen rights to a Jackie Collins novel, Lovers and Players. It is said to be one of Jessica's favorite books. We're impressed that she reads.
The insider informed Britain's 'Daily Telegraph' newspaper, "Jessica says the role is perfect for her. She's hoping it will showcase her as a serious actress."
Teen Princesses Beatrice, 17, and Eugenie of York, Sarah Ferguson's daughters, held a Pirates of the Caribbean-themed party for Eugenie's 16th birthday* that soon went wild. Guests got wasted and trashed the house, causing thousands of dollars worth of damage:
"To be honest it was the best party I've ever been to. Within a couple of hours it was out of control," one guest said.
"At one stage someone tried to get into Fergie's bedroom — but the door was locked and Eugenie stopped them," another guest told The Sun.
The clean up of the million-dollar mansion, known as Sunninghill Park, was quite an effort, a cleaner said.
"It was like a bomb had gone off, the house was in a real state. There were empty bottles and broken glasses. It too
The article states that the party ended up costing the Fergusons nearly $50,000. The royal family denies the account of the chaos, saying that "up to 10 adults were present" and that no alcohol was served after 11.
It looks like the British princesses are ready to make their mark on the world. We look forward to more stories of their debauchery.
*The source article states it was Eugenie's 17th birthday, but Wikipedia and another source say she was born in 1990.

Starpulse has a story stating that little people organizations are outraged that Britney hired people of small stature to entertain her husband at his birthday party in Atlanta. We could find no press releases or official statements confirming this, although it does seem obvious that her actions would upset people:
At the party, hosted in a Las Vegas, Nevada restaurant, two female dwarves were reportedly employed to carry in Kevin Federline's 28th birthday cake, while another dressed as a miniature Sonny Bono alongside a Cher look-alike.
Horrified sources claim boozy guests giggled and cheered, with some jokingly suggesting a dwarf-throwing contest.
But dwarf groups are enraged at the appearances, insisting the stunt was demeaning.
A member of America's Billy Barty Foundation - named after the late diminutive Hollywood veteran - says, "It is wicked to hurl abuse at anyone of diminished height simply because they are small.
"We know dwarves and midgets who are immense in stature because of their talent.
"Mostly they are able to rise above any insults. But inevitably, feelings are hurt by nasty comments. There's only one word for it - bullying."
When we first reported that Britney hired dwarves to entertain her husband, we noted that "People who mock little people are ignorant and stupid." It's like hiring someone in black face for laughs, and Britney deserves plenty of criticism for this.
Here are some little people organizations so that we can all be a little more enlightened about how offensive Britney's actions were. (Again, there are no official press releases, but it may be helpful to get someone else's point of view.)
- Dwarfism.org, which notes that the term "midget" is highly offensive
- The Children of Difference Foundation
- Little People of America
Britney is said to be due in September if she's really pregnant. We don't think that dumb bitch should produce any more children, and hope that the nanny can drum some sense into SP, because he doesn't have much of a chance with the parents he's got.
Here's Britney getting her hair done and talking on the phone yesterday. [via]

Tom Jones, who was knighted by Queen Elizabeth last week, has said that his plastic surgeon has told him not to get any more work done.
"He advised me against having anything else done," reveals Sir Tom, in an exclusive interview with the Daily Mirror...
"He told me: 'Your eyes will be bloody popping.' He said I should try to look as natural as I can."
He pulls down his bottom eyelids, revealing how he will look if he succumbs to the surgeon's steel again...
"I've had some nips and tucks," he admits, with a laugh. But now, even with the health warning of one of America's top cosmetic surgeons, he's not convinced he can resist another op or bout of Botox. "I don't know," he muses. "It depends on what I think needs doing."
Jones, 65, also admits to dyeing his jet-black hair and beard, and has a 48 year-old son with shock-white hair.
Jones does all his own moves on stage and works out on a cross trainer an hour a day to stay in shape. He says he loves performing, gets bored if he takes time off, and has no plans to stop.
People speculated that Jones' 49 year-marriage to Linda Woodward was in trouble when he showed up solo for his knighting ceremony. Jones said that his wife doesn't fly after 9/11 and seems to reveal that he has a non-traditional relationship: "Neither of us felt strong enough to walk away from the marriage... There's no need and it works for us and everything's cool."
Jones has a new album, Stoned in Love with DJ Chicane, that is quite catchy and will be out later this month. You can listen to the title track online. (Scroll 3/4 down the page.) It's sure to be a hit.

Star Jones famously got a large portion of her sham wedding ceremony to Al Reynolds comped. Now she doesn't want to pay for stripping-focused exercise lessons, since she's not going to need them anyway:
Obviously Jones is up to her old tricks and thinks that her dim star power is enough to get her anything she wants. She should just be canned from The View already and become a spokesperson because she doesn't have many career options left.
By all accounts, Jones' return to the View after the health scare she suffered from breast lift surgery was unremarkable. Jones brought some falsies in for her co-hosts, saying she no longer needed them, and admitted that she did have a scare on the operating table. She continued to downplay the threat to her health though and insisted that she was "eating bacon and eggs" the next morning. Jones seemed to get along fine with Joy Behar after their snotty exchange on the phone over the air. The two must have been making a special effort.
Jones was honored by Dress for Success at the Marriot Marquis in NY last night. Dress for Success is a non-profit organization that provides secondhand business attire and interview tips to disadvantaged women. Jones must be considered a wonderful example for women afraid to ask for charity.
Here's Jones in what's probably a borrowed dress at the Dress for Success event last night.

Now that Jolie's ailing mother is back in France with her pregnant daughter, the media can't speculate if the baby will be born in the states or France anymore, so they've decided to change the venue entirely.
This story sounds so fake it's laughable, but Jolie is said to want to have the baby in Africa now so that she can continue working for the UN until her baby is born:
The pregnant star and lover Brad Pitt will stay at a private lodge in Namibia, south west Africa, while they wait for their new arrival.
They have allegedly planned to have their child there so Angelina - a UN goodwill ambassador - can carry on working for the organisation throughout her pregnancy.
A source told Britain's News of the World newspaper: "They've fallen in love with Africa and want to help as much as they can over there.
"Angelina has completely changed from her old partying days and she takes her UN responsibilities very seriously."
Last month, it was rumoured Angelina - who adopted her daughter Zahara from Africa last year - was planning to give birth in France as a tribute to her dying mother.
Jolie can work for the UN remotely and this doesn't seem likely. Someone probably made up this story.
Here are pictures of Brad leaving yesterday for a business trip and Angelina with Maddox after he had his face and nails painted.

Johnny Knoxville revealed the most likely reason why it was his co-star, Steve-O, who "briefly" hooked up with 
Nicole Richie and not him: he likes to take his time during sex.
He said: "I haven't seen it so it's hard to compare, but I reckon you'd probably need extra videotape."
Knoxville says the secret to his sexual prowess is he is willing to do anything to pleasure a women.
He added: "Your wish is my command, ladies."
Knoxville must be between conquests at the time, or he would surely be too busy to give long quotes.

After Eva Longoria spouted all that shit about Tony Parker being inexperienced in bed and needing her tutelage - and then tried to take it back - it's not surprising that his friends think she's a blabbermouth and are questioning her sanity:
"My fellow Frenchies, all they talk about is sex,and they were like, 'Why is she saying stuff like that? Why is she talking about your private life and what happens in the bedroom?'" Longoria has since tried to clarify what she meant by her comments, saying Parker was actually the teacher in the bedroom and that he had only had been involved in one serious relationship before her.
Longoria went on to say that "I never regret something I say. I regret how people perceive it."
Her boyfriend is just a chump for putting up with her. She is so arrogant and she's going to have trouble having a career after Desperate Housewives.
Here are some screencaps and collages from Eva's appearance on The George Lopez show. [via]

David Beckham has revealed his battle with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, from which he has suffered in silence for years:
We hope Beckham gets treatment and can overcome his OCD. It's brave of him to reveal a mental disorder and we won't make fun of him for it. His wife is fair game, though.
Here's his skinny, greasy-faced wife outside of a restaurant in London on April 1st. She looks like she's on something and she's wearing fur!

Kirsten Dunst, 23, was spotted out on a date wtih Andy Samberg, 27, of Saturday Night Live fame:
There was no way Kirsten was getting back together with Jake. Like most everyone else online, we're not too fond of her, but we wish her the best and hope she finds romance.
Uma Thurman may be back together with her ex, hotelier Andre Balazs. Thurman confirmed her split from Balazs in early March after a two year relationship. The couple was photographed on St. Barts recently, suggesting that they're back together:
This explains the Gawker Stalker sighting of the two together in the early morning a week after their split. Maybe Thurman just wanted some alone time, but wasn't ready to break up yet.

We've read two different reports that Brad Pitt is buying real estate. One seems somewhat legitimate and the other sounds like complete BS.
MONICA TAVELLA, a spokeswoman for the estate, says, "Brad's visit was kept very secret, and only a handful of people knew that he was staying with us.
"He stayed over a weekend which is usually quiet, so he was able to see the vineyard and the cellars where the wine is aged.
"He was very interested in the whole process of wine-making, right from the vine to the bottle, and he was also very knowledgeable. He seemed to be interested in buying."
Since no one else was at the vineyard at the time, there are no dates given for Pitt's visit, and only a 'handful of people" know he was there, we're sure there's no one to confirm the fact that Brad is interested in this failing winery in Italy.
There are pictures of Pitt's visit to the Dominican Republic last weekend, though, which make the story that he's buying real estate there more likely.

Update: We posted high-res pictures of Naomi Watts in a sheer top and miniskirt with the assumption that they were new. Reader Millie alerted us that the pictures were from last July and sent us these more recent pictures of Watts. Obviously we can't draw conclusions about Watts' pregnancy status based on those old pictures!
The pictures of Watts in a blue shirt were taken on March 9th, and the pictures in a white dress are from mid February. Millie points out that her boobs are bigger - a sign of pregnancy. Is Watts going to be a single mom?
The old pictures are now after the jump.

Naomi Campbell doesn't just hit, bite, headbutt and throw objects at people, she also spits. Campbell spat in a security guard's face at a U2 concert a few months ago::
"Campbell told the security officer that she was not going to get down and that he was a f------ a------," the source revealed.
"She told him to go f--- himself and to get the f--- away from her. She then spat in the officer's face."
The source said the abuse was witnessed by two other security guards and a senior Garden official was called in to intervene.
Campbell was not even removed from the concert and was characteristically rude when officers gave her a verbal warning. The abused guard's harrassment complaint to police was closed because "Campbell's actions were considered more rude than harassing."
Meanwhile the maid that Campbell struck with a crystal-encrusted Blackberry on Thursday said that she suffered from blurred vision and extreme blood loss after the attack.
Cops have also recovered a mobile phone from Campbell's house that may be the one she used to hit the maid from behind. Campbell faces up to 7 years in jail if she's convicted.
If Campbell wasn't famous she would have been hauled away for spitting at a security guard at a concert. Let's hope she has severe legal and monetary consequences for this latest episode.

Sharon Stone wants to record an album now that her lopsided boobs made their last appearance on screen in the campy Basic Instinct 2: Fame Addiction. She figures if she does something else right away it will help people forget how bad the film is.

Pink, trying desperately to make a comeback, is spouting a lot of crap to the press to try to drum up publicity for her album coming out this week, "I'm Not Dead." Britian's Mirror gossip rag, 3am, devotes its entire issue to Pink and has scads of dumb quotes from the singer, who uses a punk image to exploit teens who want to rebel but aren't cool enough to discover real music.
Pink speaks out on everything from webcam sex to feminism:
Pink is completely happy with a stripper's pole between her legs, so we don't know why she's bitching about it.
Pink obviously doesn't care how she comes off as long as she's quoted. Her single, "Stupid Girls," is only 31 on the Billboard chart and her last album didn't sell that well:
The fifth annual "Comedy for a Cure" benefit for The Tuberous Sclerosis Alliance was held last night in Hollywood. Attending stars included Julianne Moore, Teri Hatcher, Sarah Silverman, Jimmy Kimmel, Jane Kaczmarek, Patricia Heaton, and Marissa Jaret Winokur. Royal asshole Billy Bush served as master of ceremonies.
Calista Flockhart was also supposed to serve as a host, but does not seem to have shown up since there aren't any pictures of her.
A little more about the disease Tuberous Sclerosis:
The event featured live auctions and comedy. Teri Hatcher even sat on a winning bidder's lap.
