Mischa Barton's new Bebe ads


Mischa Barton is the new face of Bebe, in ads to be launched soon. One commentor on the bulletin board where we found these scans said she's already seen the pictures on a bus stop.

She's said to be "playing the dominatrix" in these ads by photographer Steven Klein, but they look pretty tame:

The pretty actress will be seen on billboards across America wearing Bebe outfits, posing alongside scantily clad man-servants.

In one quirky photo, taken by top snapper Steven Klein, Barton digs her high-heel stilettos into a male model's bare back, while, in another, a hunk wearing nothing but a pair of bikini briefs kneels obediently beside her as she strikes a fierce pose behind a veil.

Rumor has it that Mischa has been late on set and may be thinking of leaving The O.C. Her bosses have denied that there's a problem, and say they "don't comment on rumor or speculation." That makes it sound true, doesn't it?

Here are some of Barton's Bebe ads, as seen in OK! magazine:

Nicole Richie redesigns her engagement ring


Nicole Richie is redesigning the engagement ring given to her by DJ AM in February, 2005 for their first engagement. The couple broke up in December, 2005, and reconciled six weeks ago. Richie will save AM money by using the stone from her original ring in a new setting. Apparently she's "superstitious," but we just think she's pushing AM into another engagement and doesn't want to wait for him to get her a new ring:

The couple has already decided to give their engagement another try after breaking it off at Christmas, and friends claim Richie is simply planning to revamp her old engagement ring.

According to an insider, the 24-year-old would have donned her old ring if she wasn't so superstitious about jinxing the romance with a ring she cast aside when they split. Magazine In Touch claims Richie recently met with jewelery designer Nancy Davis, who designed her first ring, about creating a new design.

A source says, "She wants a ring that doesn't hold any memories of the break-up."

Meanwhile, Richie is already telling her pals that she and Goldstein are "unofficially engaged," according to Life & Style magazine, and they plan to marry later this year.

"Unoffically engaged" is like being a "little bit pregnant" - it doesn't exist except in the minds of people who really want to make it happen.

Here are AM and Richie in NY City on April 13th. Remember how we said AM was surprisingly hot? Yeah, we take it back.

Katie Holmes hasn't given birth yet


Yesterday we reported a lukewarm rumor that Katie Holmes may have given birth. This was based on the fact that she hadn't been seen outside of the Cruise estate for several days. Pictures came out of Katie shopping for shoes at Barney's yesterday, so that theory is blown.

We said it before, but it's silly to shop for shoes right before you give birth. Your feet are totally swollen and there's no way you can tell if they'll fit properly.

Regardless Katie is trying to get out and that's good for her. She looks quite miserable, as A Socialite's Life, who alerted us to the pictures, notes. They also point out TMZ's video of Katie shopping. (link will launch a new window.)

Tom Cruise's interview with Diane Sawyer comes out tonight. Some details have been leaked, including:

  • Tom runs "seminars" to teach people close to Katie how she'll give birth
  • The baby won't be baptised as a Catholic, the religion that Katie was raised, as Tom and Katie are "just Scientologists."
  • Tom implies that Scientology is compatible with other religions, even though it's clearly not.

    Tom has clarified the hype around a Scientology "silent birth," stating that it's "really about respecting the woman. It's not about her not screaming."

    It doesn't sound that bad, but the fact that the baby will be ignored for a day and separated from its mother for three days is certainly worrying.

    Here are pictures of Katie shopping yesterday.

    Jada Pinkett Smith says she was a coked-out whore when she met Will Smith


    Jada Pinkett Smith said she was a coked-out slut when she met Will Smith ten years ago and that he saved her from a life of debauchery. Well, that's not exactly what she said, we're inferring. It was pretty close, though:

    She explains, "Will saved my life. I was literally killing myself when we started dating ten years ago.

    "I was doing drugs, drinking alcohol and sleeping around."

    The actress has been touring with her heavy metal band Wicked Wisdom, but steers clear of the rock 'n' roll lifestyle.

    She is now on the straight and narrow, but still admits her life isn't perfect: "I'm no different from any other woman. I have the same insecurities and issues."

    Jada, it's called college and that's what everyone does. You're supposed to move on and not talk about it except to reminisce about how great it was.

    Jada has been raising eyebrows with the rock and roll look she's sporting. She's the lead singer for heavy metal band, Wisdom. On anyone else this outfit would seem forced, but on Jada it looks rather fitting.

    Angelina Jolie completes Brad Pitt's emasculation


    Brad Pitt has been seen in Namibia with a mohawk hairdo - just like little Maddox's! Since the Jolie-Pitts are in the sticks now, and Jolie has been said to cut Maddox's hair herself, the most logical conclusion is that Jolie cut Pitt's hair into the ridiculous new style:

    Brad, 42, sported his daring ’do while playing softball with Maddox in Namibia, Africa, where he and Angelina Jolie, 30, are awaiting the imminent birth of their baby, along with Maddox and his 15-month-old sister Zahara. So why the new ’do?

    Here’s a clue.
    In an interview last December, Angelina’s New York-based stylist Ted Gibson revealed that the
    actress insists on cutting Maddox’s Mohawk herself.

    Did she give Brad the chop, too? Looks likely!

    Brad carries a daddy bag, lets his wife move the family around at will, and apparently allows her to cut his hair any way she sees fit! He's a rather accommodating guy.

    In related news, Brad has three construction crews working overtime to finish his Hollywood home in time for the birth of his first biological child with Angelina. In order to make sure the construction does not disturb his neighbors, he ordered all loud work stopped in the evening. He also visited several neighbors personally and promised to throw a cocktail party when he returns. What a nice guy. He'll have to see what Angelina wants to do, though, because she might not be ready to move back to Hollywood for quite a while.

    Violet Affleck rushed to hospital; Jennifer Garner's bush


    That's a really tasteless title, we know, but it's the Friday before a holiday so what the hell.

    Four month-old Violet Affleck, the baby daughter of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, was rushed to hospital when she had trouble breathing on April 8th. She is fine now, but the new family had quite a scare:

    In Touch Weekly is reporting that on April 8 the 4-month-old adorable little girl had to be rushed to a medical building in Century City, Calif.

    It seems Violet was having difficulty breathing, says an insider, who adds that the baby was also tested for asthma.

    The weekly tabloid cites an eyewitness that said, “Ben and Jen looked so worried. As Ben carried Violet, Jen kept peering into the blanket to check on her...”

    They got their little girl in for care and about an hour later, a much calmer family emerged, and they headed straight home with Violet.

    That must be when the recent pictures of Violet were taken. It's scary to have a baby with a medical problem, and we hope that Violet is completely recovered.

    Jennifer Garner has admitted that she's scared of filming the scene in Alias where her character gives birth:

    The actress, who gave birth to baby Violet last December, fears her on-screen labor will be a huge embarrassment.

    She says, "I think it is going to be an incredibly embarrassing day. I have been dreading this moment as long as I have known it was coming. I can't even imagine being in front of my crew. It is not even about the people watching it on TV. Imagine what this crew has seen me do over the last five years? I still get embarrassed any time I have to not have my clothes on around them, because those are my guys. They are all like brothers or father figures, so it will be a rough day for me."

    Speaking of taking her clothes off, some clever person in the SuperiorPics forums cranked up the contrast in Photoshop to provide a glimpse of Garner's bush. The picture below is NSFW obviously. It's a bit controversial, with some people saying it's faked entirely, but it looks kind of real to us.

    Lindsay Lohan to pull an Angelina


    Lindsay Lohan will pull an Angelina and visit local schools and clinics in Kenya as part of a charity trip with Bono's One Campaign:

    After Lohan's done with her new film roles (and her promo work for the old ones), she says she's going on a trip to Kenya with the One Campaign, which, according to the charity, is still in the planning stages.

    "As with Brad Pitt and other celeb visits, it'll likely focus on where America is helping make a difference to save and change lives," One Campaign spokesperson Meighan Stone said, citing schools, clinics and microcredit efforts to help Africans build their own businesses. A date for the trip has yet to be determined.

    Lohan has plenty to do in the next few months. She has four movies finished which are due for release, "Just My Luck," "Bobby," "A Prarie Home Companion," and "Chapter 27," and will be shooting two more.

    Interesting that this news was released a day after the story of the Lindsay and Jessica Simpson catfight. Lohan is said to have made Jessica Simpson cry in that incident, and has been dating 37 year-old director Brett Ratner this week.

    Here is Lohan out shopping on Wednesday.

    Britney Spears in talks for new TV series


    Britney Spears has met with Will and Grace producers to discuss an ongoing role in school-based sitcom, "Dentention":

    The 24-year-old attended the meeting to talk about a role in an ensemble sitcom about teachers, tentatively titled Detention.

    During the two-hour meeting in late February, the singer read lines from a script and confessed she was "aching to give acting a go," according to Us Weekly magazine.

    Spears guest starred alongside Hayes on Will & Grace last month, appearing as a conservative talk show host.
    A source close to the actor says, "Having seen the way Britney works, he knows she has potential."

    One of the producers' main concerns was that the pop star was pregnant with her second child.

    The source adds, "First, she laughed and said, 'Do I look it?' Then she assured them that she wouldn't jeopardize a new project.

    Britney is said to be very interested and is looking forward to the project. We don't think she can act, but it's likely she'll get the role anyway.

    Meanwhile Britney is said to be pushing K-Fed to enroll in charm school, but he predictably doesn't want to go:

    A friend of the couple tells In Touch that Britney, 24, wants Kevin to enroll in a "charm school" workshop with Beverly Hills therapist Dr. Irene Kassorla. "Kevin is in dire need of a makeover," their pal adds. "This class could be just what the doctor ordered. It's Chivalry 101!" But making him over won't be easy. "Kevin is fighting her on this," the friend says. "He cut back on his partying and cut his hair for her. But going to therapy to turn him into a gentleman is not something he is excited about." But Britney still hopes that with a little effort--and a bit of education--her frog may someday turn into a prince.

    You can't change a guy, Britney, that's why you don't marry the guys you date in your early twenties.

    Here are a bunch of different looks that Britney has sported recently, as shown on People Online. [via]

    Sarah Jessica Parker hates Hollywood


    Sarah Jessica Parker has slammed Hollywood for making movies for dumb teen audiences:

    Sarah Jessica Parker has attacked Hollywood, claiming studios only make movies for 16 year-olds. The actress accuses the system of pandering to teenagers "wanting to see movies for knuckleheads."

    She says, "I remember when adults went to movies. Until about five years ago there were always adult films, and they made their money back. It wasn't such a risk. So I feel I have to compete against audience's tastes."

    Parker, your last film was totally panned as insipid and predictable, and the one before that wasn't too much better. It's not like you're making thoughtful art films so who are you to complain about the industry that made you rich? Maybe you're trying to make excuses for starring in terrible films. You're starting to sound like Gwyneth Paltrow and should zip it.

    Here's Parker with her husband, Matthew Broderick at "The American Theatre Wing's Annual Spring Gala Honoring Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane," on April 10th and at the Fragrance FIFI awards on April 3rd. Maybe Dr. Ruth can help her mend her lousy relationship with some old fashioned loving.

    David Blaine makes an uncomfortable spectacle of himself - again


    David Blaine is pretty cool when he's doing magic. His low key personality and willingness to approach anyone make his brand of street magic unique and realistic. I saw a special on cable that featured Blaine levitating a foot off the ground. The different groups of people who saw him do it up close really believed that he had some kind of supernatural power.

    When the novelty of street magic wore off a few years ago, Blaine started pulling Houdini-type capers. He was buried in a coffin in New York city for a week in 1999, enclosed in a glass of ice for three days in 2000, and stood on a platform for two days straight in 2002. Blaine tried to bring his stunts to new masochistic heights by encasing himself in an acrylic box over the Thames River in London without food or entertainment for 44 days in the fall of 2003. The stunt was successful but foolish and Blaine drew mixed reviews for his public sacrifice. Drunken Londoners ridiculed him and hurled food and beer at his see-through box.

    Blaine now plans on living in an aquarium for seven days in New York City's Lincoln center.

    The 33-year-old magician will perform his latest stunt by living underwater for seven days and nights in a "human aquarium" in front of New York's Lincoln Center.

    He will conclude by attempting to hold his breath underwater longer than the record of 8 minutes, 58 seconds.

    The finale of his latest stunt will air live in a two-hour ABC special on May 8 (8 p.m. EDT).

    The guy is trying to cling to his fading star by pulling yet another outrageous stunt. It's unnecessary and stupid, and if he wants to make a pile of cash he can surely tour Vegas instead of toturing himself for our entertainment.

    It's obviously incredibly hard to hold your breath for that long under water, especially after your body is totally worn out from being submerged for a week. I saw a super-fit guy who had been training for years try to break the record for holding your breath under water on "Wetten Das?" He fell a half minute or so short of the record when he was distracted by Bon Jovi flirting with his girlfriend on the other side of the glass.

    Blaine has supposedly been training with the Navy Seals for the stunt, but we doubt he will successfully hold his breath for that long.

    His last gig was as the spokesperson for the 2006 New York City summer reading program, though, so you can hardly blame him for trying to remain relevant.

    Here is Blaine "bringing magic to libraries" as part of NY's summer reading program:

    Paris Hilton sings happy birthday to Hugh Hefner


    Paris Hilton sang happy birthday at a party held for 80 year-old Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner. She wore a bra, panties and garters and exhibited a surprisingly good singing voice. Hef was also feted by Donald Trump, Three-6 Mafia, Jenna Jameson, Bill Maher, and Oliver Stone.

    Here's the video of Paris singing to Hef and some photos of Paris and her mom Kathy at the LA Lakers "3rd annual Mirage Las Vegas Casino Night and Bodog Celebrity Poker Invitational" benefit on April 12, 2006 in Santa Monica, California. She certainly likes to suck on things.

    Has Katie Holmes already given birth?


    Katie Holmes has not been seen outside of Cruise's estate for a few days. This may mean that she has already given birth and that the Scientologists are sequestering the baby in accordance with their arbitrary belief system:

    Reports from Wednesday say that Katie Holmes is now missing in action, no longer emerging from the Cruise compound. That has brought speculation that the fabulous Katie Holmes may have already given birth within the estate - and the couple wish to keep it quiet so she and the baby can have a few days of silence before the press begins the onslaught.

    Let's review the guidelines for giving birth and caring for newborns that L.Ron Hubbard pulled out of his ass:

  • The newborn is to be left entirely alone for the full first day after it is born
  • The baby is to be separated from the mother for three full days after birth
  • The mother should stay silent during childbirth
  • The mother cannot talk to the baby for a full week after its born

    It would make sense, then, that Katie and the baby are kept away from the media and from all "negative influences" for a full week after birth. If she doesn't come out for another shopping trip in the next few days, you can bet she's given birth.

    Katie is also said to be "out of her mind" since Cruise has been leaving her alone while he flies planes and travels in the last few days of her pregnancy:

    To make matters worse, Cruise has been trotting the globe and playing with his very expensive toys while shipping Katie off to the Scientology celeb center every day. While word of the practice of the Scientology "silent birth" is published all over the world, the unfortunate young Holmes has been left alone to cope with the overwhelming changes.

    While Cruise may not be there for Holmes in the real world, he's very good at giving loving quotes and posing for the cameras. In an upcoming interview with GQ, Cruise calls sex with Holmes "spectacular" and says that he feels more strongly for her than he ever did for Nicole Kidman, who he was married to for over 12 years.

    Video of Carmen Electra riding the Sybian on Howard Stern


    Carmen Electra could lose her contract representing Max Factor after she rode the Sybian on Howard Stern last Friday:

    On Friday morning, Carmen Electra appeared on The Howard Stern Show, where she rode the wild pony, so to speak - or at least performed lewd acts on the electric version.

    Now it seems, the cosmetics company she represents - Max Factor - is raising more than just an eyebrow; sources are reporting that her contract is now under review due to her on air antics....

    On air:
    "It feels great. I have to get one for the house. It's awesome. This is the best thing I have ever felt in my life. I felt like I was going to take off."

    Carmen denied doing anything wrong, and said she just sat on a vibrating chair. After seeing the video, it seems pretty tame to us although she does seem to get something out of it.

    Britney Spears cleared of child endangerment charges


    Nothing came of the recent Department of Children and Family Services investigation into Sean Preston's skull fracture. The case was dropped immediately after case workers questioned the Spears-Federlines. (In what is probably an oversight, The Sun spells Federlines last name wrong in the way that we all do to make fun of him.)

    Social service investigators were automatically called after the singer took SEAN PRESTON to hospital with the injury.

    But after quizzing Britney and hubby KEVIN SPENDERLINE, authorities ruled it was an accident.

    Britney’s lawyer Marty Singer said: “They determined that the parents were not involved in any injury and that nothing improper was done within the home.”

    Doctors say the seven-month-old is lucky to be alive after plunging three feet on to his head when his high chair snapped on April 1. He was being looked after by his nanny at the star’s home in Malibu.

    From what I know, Child Services can take months to investigate a case. They must have closed this one right away because it was Britney's baby.

    Here is Kevin Federline in Century City, California on April 11th.

    Avril Lavigne tries to distract from her baby bump with horizontal stripes


    Avril Lavigne sang at the "Volvo for Life" awards ceremony in NY yesterday. Her tummy looked less than flat in a tight top with horizontal black stripes.

    The awards honored young people who do extraordinary volunteer work "in the areas of safety, quality of life and environment." They were hosted by Benjamin Bratt, with performances by Avril Lavigne and the Harlem Gospel Choir.

    Lavigne, 21, is rumored to be pregnant. She has been engaged to Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley, 25, since June 2005 and owns a home with him in Beverly Hills. She has recently said that she wants to marry Whibley this summer and plans to have children.

    Brad Pitt carries a daddy bag; Jolie talks smack about Aniston


    The Boston Herald claims that Brad Pitt has been spotted carrying a high-end "Daddy Bag," The "David" by Wake. We checked out Wake's collection and compared it with pictures of Pitt carrying the bag in question, and we don't think they're the same bag.

    The "David" is definitely a more feminine bag than the one Brad drapes his leather jacket over. Still, this doesn't fare well for Brad, who was called a "nanny" by a source quoted in the soon to be defunct Celebrity Living:

    "I don't think he'll be satisfied playing the nanny for the long haul."

    The report claims that Brad wants equal rights as a parent.

    But another friend of the couple tells the magazine that Jolie is in charge.

    "I think she calls the shots with those kids every step of the way, the 'source revealed to the magazine. The story concludes... Brad should put his foot down now before he has another full time armful.

    Surely the Jolie-Pitts will have their own nannies and needn't worry about either one of them having to watch the kids if they don't want to. They're hands-on parents, though, and will do their best to be there for the children.

    Meanwhile Jolie's best friend has said that Jolie was royally pissed off by Aniston's pity party on Oprah:

    Contact Music is reporting that Angelina Jolie has accused Jennifer Aniston of using an appearance on Oprah Winfrey last year to turn the public against her and Brad Pitt. Jolie's best friend, Tonya Hart, is quoted saying the actress was pissed by Aniston's actions, claiming she was "milking" her split with Pitt.

    Tonya claims Jolie said: "Oh my God, it makes me want to throw up! She shot her mouth off and Oprah took it all in. The audience took it all in. They were all against Brad and me from that moment on. She wanted people to feel sorry for her that her marriage was down the pan. Brad and I couldn't defend ourselves.: Tonya adds: "Ange told Oprah she was extremely upset with her and wanted nothing to do with the show, even though Oprah reportedly said, 'Don't bear a grudge against me."

    [via]

    If that's true it's awesome and of course Jolie would think Aniston is an idiot. We wish Aniston would just shut up and go away already. Once the Jolie-Pitt baby emerges she's going to be even more miserable.

    The Jolie-Pitts to have another African baby girl


    Word is that the Jolie-Pitts bought clothes suitable for a little baby girl, but also picked out a t-shirt with the word "Boy" across the front. Of course they already have a baby girl, but presumably these were little tiny clothes:

    Before Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt flew to Africa last week, the couple stocked up on baby stuff at a Paris boutique – including dresses, socks, a bonnet and a layette, an observer tells PEOPLE.

    "We think it's a girl, but we're not 100-percent certain," the observer says he overheard Jolie say during the private shopping jaunt.

    Still, the source tells PEOPLE that the actress also purchased a gray T-shirt with the word "boy" on it . . . "just in case." Besides, she said, "since I already have a boy and a girl, it doesn't really matter."

    We heard earlier that that Jolie-Pitts were expecting a boy, so they may have staged the shopping trip and spoken loudly to throw off the tabloids.

    Us Weekly claims to have the exclusive news that Jolie has decided to stay in Africa to give birth. They quote a source saying that:

    “it was important for them to have the baby in a place where they can also make a statement. . . . He wants her to be happy, and he knows how much she wanted the baby to be born in Africa.”

    A report in In Touch in early March states that PItt insists on having a doctor accompany the couple to Africa, should Jolie choose to give birth there.

    While it is unknown whether Jolie plans to give birth in a natural, non-medical setting in Africa, an out-of-hospital childbirth is a safe option for a healthy first time mother. According to the book "The Thinking Woman's Guide to a Better Birth" by Henci Goer, medical studies show that home and birthing center (non-medical) births are safer and result in a better outcome for mother and child.

    It may seen unconventional for Jolie to give birth in Africa, but it's not irresponsible. She's just looking for a safe, secure place for her child to come into the world. Women have done it for eons.

    Update: People are saying that Africa is a dangerous place to give birth due to the threat of malaria. This may be true, but don't you think that Jolie knows about that and has prepared for it medically? She's a smart woman.

    Mariah Carey premieres "Say Something" on TRL - with video


    Mariah Carey appeared on MTV's Total Request Live yesterday to premiere her new video with Snoop Dogg and Pharrell, "Say Something." It's not that catchy of a song, and the background track is too repetitive. The video jumps around to different luxurious scenes in Paris and in high end shops, and although it's interesting it's not fabulous.

    Here is Mariah at Total Request Live and outside the MTV studios yesterday. Sure she looks good now that she's lost weight, but why does she continue to dress like she's 14?

    Lindsay Lohan and Jessica Simpson cat fight!


    Us Weekly has details of a spat between Lindsay Lohan and Jessica Simpson that started when Lohan sent some drinks over to Simpson's party at an LA bar and Simpson didn't acknowledge the gesture:

    As Defamer reported last week, it looked like a sequel to Mean Girls at the L.A. bar The Dime on April 6. Now sources tell Us that the reason Lindsay Lohan became enraged is because she sent over a round of drinks to Jessica Simpson and director Brett Ratner (After the Sunset, Rush Hour) — who were sitting at a nearby table – and neither bothered to thank her.

    Says our source, “Lindsay said, ‘What’s the matter? When your sister is around, you can talk s–t about me, but now that Ashlee’s not here, what are you going to do? C’mon! I’m 19 and you’re 25. Say something, you coward!’

    Oh yeah! We would have loved to see that. Now Jossip reminds us of what Defamer originally reported:

    At around 1:30 they said it was the "last call" so we took that as our cue to get outta there but then none other than Jessica Simpson and her little posse came in through a back door so we decided to stay. Jessica immediately went over to that hack director Brett Ratner's table. Then outta nowhere Lindsay Lohan herself appeared and cozied right up next to Ratner.

    Looked like a catfight was gonna go down between the two girls but instead the blond guy called one of Lindsay's guy friends an "asshole" and the guys got into a heated argument themselves. A little later Ratner was sitting at Jessica's table just hanging out and laughing a lot but across the room Lohan was totally flipping out. Her pals kept coming over trying to pull Ratner away from Jessica's table. Then we heard a girl at Jessica's table call Lohan a "bitch"and next thing you know Ratner's like holding Lindsay back to keep her from storming the table in some all out attack.

    Lohan and the Simpson sisters have a long standing feud that originated when Ashlee dated Lohan's ex, big mouth Wilmer Valderrama. Lindsay even arranged to have Jessica Simpson turned back at the door of an MTV party she held last June.

    We don't think Lohan sent the drinks to Simpson in an attempt to make up with her - she was just looking for an excuse to lash out at her once her sister wasn't around!

    Here's Jessica and Ashlee at the Australian MTV VMAs and Lindsay at the Saturn Rocks Times Square event at the Hard Rock Cafe. Why is Lindsay touching her face so much? Isn't that what you do when you're wasted?

    The Simpson sisters' hairstylist and Jessica's good friend, Ken Paves, said it would take him less than 30 minutes to do each of their hair for the VMAs. Gee, can you tell?

    Jessica Alba at the Malibu Film Festival


    Jessica Alba spoke at the closing night of the second annual Malibu Film Festival on Monday. She was accompanied by her boyfriend, Cash Warren.

    The Malibu Film Festival is a competition festival for independent films, similar to Sundance. The best film award was given to "Proposition," with a screenplay by musician Nick Cave:

    The closing night feature film, The Proposition, directed by John Hillcoat with a script by rocker Nick Cave, will be screened at The Jaguar Theatre in Malibu. The film is set in the harsh and rugged Australian outback of the 1880s and is a tale of loyalty and revenge as a brother must make an impossible choice when he is offered the chance to save one brother from execution by tracking and killing his older brother.

    And as a counterbalance to these serious pictures of Alba, here's a video of her in a bikini in Costa Rica:

    Britney Spears investigated for Sean's skull fracture


    Britney is being investigated by the Department of Children and Family Services. It was initially thought that the visit was due to the incident where she was photographed driving with Sean Preston in her lap, but it turns out that there's a potentially scarier situation with Sean Preston.

    According to The Insider, at around 1 p.m. on Saturday, April 8, a Sheriff’s Deputy from the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff’s Department accompanied investigators from the Department Of Children and Family Services to the Malibu home of Britney Spears

    A source tells Us that the Sheriff’s visit was part of the ongoing investigation into allegations that Spears drove a car while her baby, Sean Preston, sat on her lap. “It was part of the child endangerment investigation,” says the source, who adds that Britney was told ahead of time by her lawyers that the DFCS would be paying a visit. “She knew they were coming. It was all standard.” Source says that Spears’ attorneys do not Britney to be prosecuted. “It’s all political. They have to do [the investigation].”

    We assumed it was just a routine visit too, until we read that Star is reporting that poor Sean Preston has a fractured skull!

    On April 7, when Britney Spears and Kevin Federline realized that their baby, Sean Preston, had been sleeping more than usual, panic bells went off. Just six days earlier, the 7-month-old had taken a major fall from his high chair, a tumble that had his parents worried that he might have been critically injured.

    They had every right to fret. After rushing Sean to a nearby hospital, they discovered he had a minor skull fracture (sometimes called a "scalp fracture" in babies), and a blood clot. And the doctors weren't the only ones to take notice! The next day, the Department of Children and Family Services began looking into the incident.

    [via]

    That's scary and it's hopefully just due to the highchair fall. We learned on Law and Order that child abuse is usually committed by the father. We're just saying.

    Carmen and Dave in PR overtime


    We weren't entirely convinced that Carmen Electra and Dave Navarro were having relationship trouble until we read an unsourced e-mail report on Egotastic. There's something about those "I was there" stories that make them more convincing despite the fact that they're quite easily fabricated.

    Carmen teased her hair all up on Monday and attended two events with Dave. They were seen at the Scary Movie 4 premiere and at SAAB's new concept vehicle launch in New York.

    She insists that everything's fine in their relationship, but we still remember how nervous she seemed on the Tonight Show when she deliberately avoided the question.

    In this recent quote, she calls Dave her "friend," which usually doesn't bode well for a relationship:

    Carmen Electra insists husband Dave Navarro is her best friend and that's why their marriage is so successful. The actress previously had a string of bad relationships, including a failed marriage to basketball player Dennis Rodman and a romance with Prince, but has found true love with the rocker.

    She explains, "He's my best friend. He really lets me be who I am. It's the first time I've ever been able to travel and go to work and feel comfortable and be able to sleep at night knowing that my friend loves me and isn't hurting me. It's really nice."

    Electra does plan on starting a family but, despite tabloid reports, the couple is taking their time. She adds, "I do look forward to being a mom, but I'm not rushing it. But that's what's crazy, there have been so many stories in the tabloids that Dave and I breaking up and now I'm getting pregnant. I'm going, 'Which is it?'"

    She's not convincing us, but they'll probably work it out.

    Here are pictures from the Scary Movie 4 premiere and one from the SAAB AERO X concept car launch. Other stars seen at the Scary Movie premiere include Simon Rex (who was booted from a party for trying to pee on the carpet according to Page Six), Regina Hall, and Anna Faris.

    And here's the trailer for Scary Movie 4. This is the most we will ever see of this movie.

    Britney not even a little bit sexy


    Britney is getting all sorts of bad press this week. First she is supposedly stress-eating, and was told by her record company to shape up or risk her career:

    According to Aussie tabloid, NW, Britney's label has told her "to lose weight and clean up her image or her career will be over." However the same newspaper has reported that Britney is trying got blot out her unhappiness with food.

    A source said: "[Britney] went to the supermarket one day and loaded up on chips and all sorts of chocolate
    bars. She brought it all home and has been chowing down like there's no tomorrow..."

    "She's been so depressed over Kevin and the state of her marriage that all she wants to do is eat to stop the pain."

    Poor Britney. It must be hard to be married to Federjerk, and hopefully she'll find a more constructive way to deal with her stress.

    She also isn't even in the top 100 of FHM's sexiest women this year, and one of Kevin's exes (not Shar Jackson) has said that she better shape up or she'll lose Kevin. Maybe that's why she's taking her time about it.

    Britney has a new single which you can partially hear online. You can download a 50 second mp3 of "Just Yesterday" from breatheheavy.com.

    Here is Britney dancing to her new song. The video says it's called "Little Me," but it is credited as "Just Yesterday" on breatheheavy.com, and is supposed to be about her sister. She's still got the moves and the song is lovely.

    First peek at Violet Affleck


    Here's a cute picture of Violet Anne Affleck, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner's four month-old daughter. Violet was born on December 1, 2005.

    A cute blurry picture of the baby came out a couple of weeks ago, but you can't see her face.

    She looks adorable although this picture isn't too flattering!

    Affleck is making headlines for his comments on "Real Time with Bill Mahar" that Bush should be "hung" for treason for leaking the name of CIA operative Valerie Plame:

    Bill Sammon, Washington Examiner: "A lot of critics are conflating the two and are saying that because Bush disclosed this piece of information, they're implying that Bush leaked the name." Ben Affleck: "He probably also leaked the name. There's just no proof of that."

    Sammon: "Even the prosecutor, even Fitzgerald is saying Bush didn't leak the name. So let's be clear, Bush didn't leak Valerie Plame's name -- not that we know of."

    Affleck: "Because if he did, you can be hung for that! That's treason!"

    Bill Maher: "That is treason."

    Affleck: "You could be killed. That's not a joking around Tom DeLay 'I'll do a year, I bribed the state officials with corporate money.' That's like they shoot you in the battlefield for doing that. Don't you think we should find out who leaked that name?"

    Affleck is right, that is treason and Bush should be tried for it, not to mention the fact that he deliberately led the country into war on completely false pretenses.

    Here's Violet Affleck. Linked pictures are about the same quality as shown in the header image above.

    Kelly Osbourne isn't entirely improved


    Kelly Osbourne attended the Denis Simachev fashion show in London yesterday. She hit a sour note with a chunky asymmetrical hairpiece and a fussy white cap sleeve blouse with a silly black neck tie.

    Kelly has been lauded for her recent weight loss, which she says is getting her more attention from boys:

    “Lots of posh boys are keen… The good-looking boys only look at me now because I’ve lost so much weight — they would never have touched me before.”

    But she thinks her bad girl image is still part of the attraction: “They all just want to take me home to upset their mums because I have tattoos. They want to piss them off.”

    She’s quite partial to bad boys herself though and has been linked to several rockstars and Sadie Frost’s ex, Jackson Scott: “I like bad boys. Mum goes mad.”

    Osbourne was pictured with a "guest" at the fashion show, the man in a striped shirt shown below, but he may be just a guest at the show and not a guest of hers. They don't seem to be looking at each other and it's possible they were just sitting near each other.

    Here is Osbourne at the fashion show. She is pictured with Julien MacDonald above.

    Exclusive: Are Justin and Cameron engaged?


    Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz attended last night's Lakers game and Cameron was wearing a ring on the ring finger of her left hand. It may mean nothing, or it may mean that the couple is finally engaged. Tongues were wagging at the end of March when the NY Daily news ran a piece stating that Timberlake was "confused" and wasn't ready to take the next step and get engaged to Diaz. Both parties denied anything was wrong with their relationship.

    Timberlake, 25, and Diaz, 33, have been dating for three years. It's about time they got engaged. Diaz looks incredibly happy at last night's game and she is wearing a ring. It doesn't look like a traditional engagement ring, but why would she wear it on that finger if it's just regular jewelry? Could Justin be ready to take the next step?

    This is an exclusive since no one at Oh No They Didn't where we found the picture source seems to have noticed the ring on Cameron's left hand. We also cannot find another blog that has pointed it out yet.

    Colin Farrell's new girlfriend


    We reported the demise of Page Six yesterday after their recent payoff scandal, but they had a few good items today, notwithstanding their validity.

    Colin Farrell may be dating his "Pride & Glory" co-star, Lake Bell. They were spotted together at a Gen Art Film Festival party last week and were said to be cosy:

    The recently rehabbed "Miami Vice" stud is apparently smitten with his "Pride & Glory" co-star, Lake Bell. They arrived together at a Gen Art Film Festival bash at the Chelsea swillery BED last week and were inseparable, talking and laughing in a corner all night. "They're in a movie together," Farrell flack Danica Smith explained. "He's always friendly with his cast mates." Indeed - we've seen the porn flick he made with another "cast mate," Playboy pinup Nicole Narain.

    We couldn't find any pictures of Farrell and Bell together at the Gen Art Film Fesitival, but here she is alone at the event and in a couple of other recent appearances, and here is Farrell with Shea Whigham at the same film festival.

    Tiffany & Co Frank Gehry launch party


    The launch party for the architect Frank Gehry's jewelry line was held at Tiffanys in New York last night. Gehry uses different materials to create unique, modern pieces:

    The Gehry Collection is based on Gehry's lifelong obsession with art. Just as he has built profoundly brilliant works of architecture set in a myriad of landscapes, so does he turn to the most intimate of all the arts, jewelry design, creating provocative new forms scaled perfectly to the body.

    Frank Gehry utilizes an unusual array of materials, such as black gold, pernambuco wood and cocholong stone, in his collection. Along with sterling silver, diamonds and gemstones, these materials define six intriguing motifs inspired by structural elements, childhood memories, renaissance masters and contemporary painters.

    Plenty of stars attended the event, including Ashton Kutcher, Kyra Sedgwick, Kevin Bacon, Susan Sarandon, Rosie Perez, Famke Janssen, Kristin Chenoweth, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Billy Crystal, Ashton Kutcher, Dennis Hopper, Lake Bell, and Lorraine Bracco. DJ AM performed.

    12 pictures total.

    Eminem's ex wants to clean him out


    Kim Mathers, Eminem's soon to be ex-wife, is planning to get as much as she can in the settlement from their upcoming divorce:

    The rapper only re-married ex-wife Kim three months ago but the couple broke up, prompting Mrs. Mathers to accuse Eminem of drug addiction.

    A friend of Kim told The Star: “She is going for gold. He is worth [tons] and she wants a big chunk. This will be one of the biggest, nastiest, costliest divorces the music industry has ever seen.”

    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.

    Eminem filed for divorce from Mathers the second time after a mere there months of marriage, six weeks of which they did not speak. Mathers said she was surprised to receive the divorce papers and that Eminem remains addicted to sleeping pills. Eminem has denied the allegations.

    Mathers should try to get as much as she can out of the settlement, and it was foolish of Enimen not to insist on a prenup.

    J.Lo sues her ex


    Jennifer Lopez is suing her first ex husband, Ojani Noa, to stop him from coming out with a book about her. Noa signed a confidentiality agreement with Lopez five months ago that stated the he could not malign Lopez or reveal details of their past relationship. Lopez wants to enforce the confidentialy agreement and get a restraining order to block the book's release.

    Noa filed a breach of contract lawsuit against Lopez at the end of 2004, claiming he'd been fired unfairly from his manager position at her Pasadena restaurant, Madres. He dropped the suit last November, and must have signed the confidentiality agreement in return for a settlement.

    Noa has also tried to blackmail Lopez over the book. He asked for $5 million in return for not releasing it.

    The lawsuit filed on behalf of Lopez maintains that the New York Post ran an article describing Noa's book three months ago. When Lopez's attorneys reached out to Noa to inquire about the manuscript, he responded with a letter, saying that he'd continue to shop his book around. The filing also states that Noa later said that "he would not agree to refrain from marketing his book unless [Lopez] paid him the sum of $5 million."

    The NY Post claims that there are some juicy details in the novel, including the revelation that Lopez cheated on P. Diddy in 1999 wtih Marc Anthony.

    Kimora and Russell keep up the facade; Star Jones touches herself


    Kimora Lee and Russell Simmons attended a benefit together despite the fact that Kimora's representative confirmed at the end of March that they're splitting. Russell has admitted an ongoing affair with gorgeous model Denise Vasi, but stated that he's still friendly with Kimora for the sake of their children and business empire.

    They put on a happy face at their annual Art for Life Benefit in Palm Beach this weekend, and Russell's new girlfriend was not seen at the event. Still things were a bit straned for the two:

    Open-minded as Russell is about love triangles, he didn't bring his 23-year-old girlfriend, Denise Vasi. Still, there were moments of awkwardness. Like when honoree Denise Rich asked guests, "Don't they look good together?" She added, "[Russell,] you have always taken my advice, but this time you're not!"

    "Things between Russell and Kimora seemed strained," according to one guest. "She showed up late and left right after she was finished speaking onstage."

    Also at the party was Star Jones without her husband Al Reynolds. Star was said to be feeling her new boobs all night:

    "Her breasts must hurt after the surgery," says our spy. "She kept touching them all night."

    Here are photos from the benefit, with guests pictured including Gayle King, Star Jones, Sammy Sosa, Venus Williams and Antonio LA Reid.

    Cher to come out of retirement


    Cher may get an ongoing gig at The Coliseum at Caesars Palace when Celine Dion ends her longstanding run there next year. If the deal goes through it will be worth $60 million to the aging singer, who was thought to have announced her retirement last year.

    Page Six reports:

    The well-preserved diva-saur - who just finished a three-year "farewell" tour - is in talks to take the stage at the Coliseum at Caesars Palace for a whopping $60 million when Celine Dion gives up the same stage next year. Cher will be paid roughly the same sum Barry Manilow is getting to warble his moldy hits at the Las Vegas Hilton. Elton John also has a regular gig at Caesars. A rep for Cher didn't return calls or e-mails.

    Here is Cher at a party for the Chrome Hearts goth store line. She is pictured with the company's owner, Laurie Stark. There's also an earlier photo of Cher at LA fashion week a couple of weeks ago holding the hand of Stark's husband, Richard.

    Elizabeth Hurley and Ashley Judd at breast cancer benefit


    Elizabeth Hurley, Ashley Judd, breast cancer survivor Anastacia, and Elton John and his partner David Furnish were among the attendees at "The Very Hot Pink Party" in New York last night. Proceeds went to benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Elton John and Tony Bennett performed.

    Elizabeth Hurley is launching her own line of swimsuits and has just signed up to represent the handbag firm, Lancel.

    Elton John has done a lot of charity work recently. He cleaned out his closets to donate more than 10,000 items with the proceeds to benefit his Aids foundation.

    Here are the photos from the benefit. Ashley Judd is shown with her husband of five years, Italian racecar driver Dario Francitti. Elton John's partner David Furnish escorted Elizabeth Hurley to the event.

    Update: pictures from the ribbon cutting on Elton John's closet.

    Exclusive: Where Angelina and Brad are staying now


    We did a little research and think we figured out Angelina and Brad's latest location. Reuters reports that the Jolie-Pitts have moved from The Burning Shore resort in Namibia that we posted pictures of earlier to "a lodge in the Etosha National Game Park in northern Namibia, where lions are a top tourist draw and would help deter intruders trying to photograph the couple." Obviously their last location was too accessible and did not afford them the privacy they were hoping.

    There are many lodges in the Estosha National Game park. We browsed a lot of websites and compared prices. Most are nice, but not luxurious, and some are high-end, but have more than 15 rooms.

    The Little Ongava Lodge stands out as a luxurious getaway that's small and manageable enough for the Jolie-Pitts to book out. It has three spacious suites, each with their own swimming pool. It's also located on a hill and boasts of the privacy it provides to guests:

    Inspired by the spectacular panoramas and cool breezes that the hilltop overlooking Ongava Game Lodge affords, the three exclusive Little Ongava units present Wilderness Safaris first 6 paw (Premier) accommodations in Namibia. Literally a camp above a camp - guests can select to be as private as they wish, or they can integrate and enjoy meals or even soak in the atmosphere with a cocktail at Ongava's popular bar overlooking the waterhole along with the Game Lodge guests.

    Designed by a leading architect, drawing on historic, natural and cultural cues the design and decor integrates seamlessly with the Etosha National Park environment. Each spacious suite commands a private view of the waterhole and the plains beyond. Relax in your private infinity horizon plunge pool; luxuriate with both indoor and outdoor bathroom and shower facilities. Siesta in the independent sala, tucked away in the dolomite rock formation.

    The dedicated main area, for the exclusive use of Little Ongava guests, lends itself to relaxed, stylish dining under an African sky.

    Here are pictures of The Little Ongava Lodge. Again, this is our best guess, but it's much better than the rest of the area lodges, and we think we're right.

    Mischa and Cisco: finally over?


    Mischa Barton has stopped smoking up long enough to realize that she's out of Cisco Adler's league. Adler was said to be unhappy with Barton's partying, which led the actress to break up with the Whitestarr frontman:

    The actress, who plays Marissa Cooper in popular teen drama 'The O.C.', has allegedly called time on the pair's romance after the Whitestarr rocker complained she was partying too much.

    According to Britain's Daily Star newspaper, Barton, 20, was less than impressed when Adler, 26, told her he was unhappy with the amount of time she was spending with close friend Nicole Richie and dumped him.

    The two were said to be engaged last fall, but that seems to have been short lived. Page Six, hardly known for its accuracy, reported that they first split on February 26. They were spotted together since, suggesting they had reconciled.

    This time Barton seems to have wised up. She's hardly as foolish as most other actresses, and Adler must have had some redeeming qualities, but she's likely to move on to better fare now that she's single.

    Barton is also said to want to leave "The O.C." now that the show is not doing as well in the ratings.

    Here is Mischa in New York on March 31st, and in California last week. And a glimpse at what she's missing in these pictures of Cisco Adler performing at the Celebrity Rock and Bowl on April 6th.

    Ashlee Simpson to host the MTV Australian VMAs


    Ashlee Simpson will host the MTV Australian Video Music Awards at the Sydney Superdome tomorrow night. Her sister, Jessica, will be on hand for assumed presenting duties:

    "She (Jessica) is just going to be making an appearance," said Ashlee of her 25-year-old sister.

    "She is going to be back there, getting my back and giving me high fives."

    The sisters will walk the red carpet at Sydney SuperDome tomorrow night, with a string of other international talent confirmed to attend, including James Blunt and Snoop Dogg.

    "As far as inspiration for the show, I am just going to get out there and have a good time," said Ashlee, whose parents and managers Joe and Tina Simpson are also in Australia.

    "You might see me shake my booty!"

    As well as hosting duties, Ashlee will perform two songs, Boyfriend and Love.

    "I just usually chill out and hang out with my band," she said of her pre-performance plans.

    "I don't like to ever think too much about anything. I just like to go with it."

    Ashlee held a press conference for the event with fellow performing act The Veronicas. Lisa Origliasso of The Veronicas is dating Simpson's ex boyfriend, Ryan Cabrera. Simpson and Cabrera split in the summer of 2004, citing their busy schedules as young artists and a lack of time together. Simpson's "Pieces of Me" is reportedly about Cabrera.

    Here are Ashlee and The Veronicas and a couple of random ugly guys in underwear at the press conference. We also have the pictures of Jessica Simpson arriving in Sydney that you're probably already seen.

    Update: pictures of Ashlee "and her current boyfriend (and guitarist) Braxton Olita on a cruiser in Sydney Harbour." [via]

    15 pictures total.

    Jude and Sienna: Round V or VI


    Jude and Sienna are said to be together yet again. They are probably just seeking each other out since they're both free. Jude was back with his ex wife Sadie Frost according to our active imagination, and Sienna was supposedly romancing Keira Knightly's ex, British actor Jamie Dornan. Those relationships must not have worked out since no one will put up with either of these sloppy actors, so they're running back to each other.

    Britian's The Mirror reports that Law flew to NY to be by Sienna's side on Wednesday, and returned to London's Heathrow on Saturday. (Maybe he just couldn't resist her new ratty hair.)

    Jude, 33, has jetted to New York at short notice to see his former fiancee, amid speculation that they are considering a sensational reconciliation.

    Jude flew out on Wednesday after 24-year-old Sienna persuaded him to visit her in the Big Apple where she's working on her new film, Interview.

    It follows their meeting last Saturday when the couple - who called it a day after revelations of Jude's affair with his children's nanny, Daisy Wright, were later reconciled, but split up again began patching things up over dinner.

    A source close to the pair tells us that Sienna and Jude enjoyed a secret date in a Central London restaurant last weekend while their pals - including film producer Bradley Adams - tried to play Cupid.

    "Sienna would be up for a reconciliation with Jude but knows it is not going to be easy," reveals our insider.

    Jude is supposed to be in Malibu soon for a pre-planned vacation with his ex-wife and three children. This can only enrage Sienna, who accused Jude of "playing house" with his wife the last time they split. Maybe she'll hold her tongue for a week or so until the next round of fighting begins.

    In related news, Sienna needs to lay off the drinking while she's out at the Oscar parties. She must not have read the NY Times article about proper Oscar party etiquette, because she's been blasted for her stupid, drunken behavior, and there are pictures supposedly:

    British actress Sienna Miller horrified Hollywood after she was photographed behaving in a "loud, childish" fashion at Vanity Fair's post-Oscar bash last month.

    The images, which will be published in the May issue of Vanity Fair, show Miller cavorting drunkenly with bit-part actress Tara Summers, having her foot nibbled by her pal and hitching up her dress while waving her bare legs in the air.

    Far from being impressed by her antics, the guests, mainly studio executives and producers, collectively cringed at Miller's embarrassing faux-pas--planting a question mark over her fledgling Hollywood career.

    We can't wait to see those pictures! Maybe they'll help law think with his head instead of his tiny peter.

    Here is Law having dinner with friends in London on April 5th.

    Angelina breastfeeding? That's hot!


    New York Magazine tries to move copies with a headline declaring that they have the first Brangelina baby photos. Of course all they have are fuzzy faked photos using lookalikes and a newborn. They even have the Angelina model pose with the baby at her breast.

    The long filler article covers the paparazzi's scramble to get the first picture of the baby and societal fascination with it - a nonstory really. We'd rather read about how they're fighting or where they're sleeping in that Namibian Getaway.

    In that sense, the birth marks the end of a modern fairy tale, the sentimental made-for-TV-movie moment of the happy new family in their cocoon of bliss (and for added narrative pleasure, there’s poor Aniston off smoking and getting naked in a bad-looking movie with chubby Vince Vaughn). Whoever contrives to get the shot of the gorgeous Pitt-Jolie offspring will not only enjoy a lucrative windfall. They’ll give us the closure we all crave, while throwing open the door to the next serial fairy tale (the inevitable marital bumps, etc.) that will delight and/or disgust millions of us around the world—and sell a ton of magazines. But first, the photo, or what Debra Birnbaum, the deputy editor of Life&Style, calls “the Holy Grail of celebrity journalism.”

    According to those whose business it is to know such things, Jolie will likely give birth at Paris’s American Hospital during the first week of May, although she’s also believed to have booked rooms at Cedars-Sinai and Malibu’s St. John’s Hospital and may have done the same at hospitals in London, Berlin, and a Third World country—possibly Ethiopia, from where she adopted her daughter, Zahara. (Some of the same people who claim to have a good idea about where and when Jolie will give birth also seem to have a good idea about how: They say it will be a C-section. They also say it’s a boy.)

    So, with Paris looking at the moment like the best bet, the paparazzi are brushing up on their French—and feeling a touch frénétique.

    The paparazzi lament the hilly terrain and bad lighting in France, and the pesky laws that keep them away from celebrities as a result of Princess Di's death. Jolie and Pitt are expected to create a diversion when they leave the hospital so that the newborn can remain untouched by the lenses that follow the family everywhere. Of course it is thought that the world's most famous couple will sell the first pictures to the highest bidder to benefit one of Angelina's favorite charities. Angelina confirmed pregnancy rumors by letting Haitian charity Yele Haiti sell her bump pictures for $400,000 to People Magazine.

    This news seems outdated now that the Jolie-Pitts are in Africa, and it's really just an excuse to post pictures of the lookalikes with a baby.

    Tara Reid gets a job working for her brother


    Tara Reid has lamented the fact that people don't take her seriously as an actress after she's photographed stumbling all over town in various states of undress. Well it looks like her prayers have been answered and she no longer has to resort to swiping swag, because her brother has created a role custom made for her as the girlfriend of a professional bowler.

    Reid’s sibling, Tommy – heretofore best known as a producer of exactly one film – is calling the shots on 7-10 Split, a comedy penned by Ross Patterson. Tara and Ross will star in the film, which follows an aspiring actor who becomes the Tiger Woods of bowling, shaking up the competition. Together he and his girlfriend shove a little edge back into the ball-and-pin world.

    A source at ONTD reports that producers were looking for unpaid extras. If they can't even afford to pay a paltry sum to the poor extras, what's the film going to look like? It's gonna suck...

    Here's Tara rocking the early 90s makeup with a friend outside of Cafe Med. This guy is probably gay, as you can see in these earlier pictures of him with the party girl.

    Charlize Theron and Jessica Alba at the Glaad Media Awards


    Charlize Theron was among the honorees at 17th annual Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation media awards on Saturday. Theron was reocognized for her role in the film "North Country." Theron's boyfriend, Irish actor Stuart Townsend, did not attend the event with her. Theron and Townsend were said to have broken up a few weeks ago, but were spotted together leaving a hotel since.

    Other awards were presented to:


  • Vanguard Award: Charlize Theron (presented by Jillian Armenante)
  • Stephen F. Kolzak Award: Melissa Etheridge (presented by Laura Dern)
  • Outstanding Film - Limited Release: Transamerica (The Weinstein Company) [Accepted by: Kevin Zegers and producer Sebastian Dungan]
  • Outstanding Drama Series: The L Word (Showtime) [Accepted by: Leisha Hailey, Mia Kirshner, and show creator Ilene Chaiken]
  • Outstanding Comedy Series: Will & Grace (NBC) [Accepted by: Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Megan Mullally, Sean Hayes, and show creators Max Mutchnick and David Kohan]
  • Outstanding Individual Episode: TIE: "Best Friends" Cold Case (CBS) [Accepted by: writer Liz Garcia, director Mark Pellington, and show creator Meredith Stiehm] and "Pilot" My Name is Earl (NBC) [Accepted by: Jaime Pressley]

  • The event was broadcast on the LOGO channel, MTV's gay and lesbian-focused network.

    Presenters and attendees pictured include Jessica Alba, Laura Dern, Melissa Etheridge, Charlize Theron, Teri Hatcher, Debra Messing, Eric McCormack, Jaime Pressly, Megan Mullally, Patricia Arquette, Rosanna Arquette, Alexis Arquette, Patricia Arquette, and Jennifer Tilly.

    Jennifer Tilly had 2 half nip-slips in a too-tight knitted dress, and Patricia Arquette's makeup was hideously brown and cakey. She should have asked Alexis, her transgendered sibling, to do her makeup for her. Alexis looked well coiffed and well put together when compared to her melting sister.

    32 pictures total.

    Page Six is so over; Naomi Campbell to appear on Oprah


    The NY Post is embroiled in a scandal involving a senior editor of Page Six, Jared Paul Stern, asking for huge bribes in exchange for positive reporting. The news on Page Six seems to be going downhill fast. Although it is Monday and gossip is harder to find, we can't help looking at the NY rag with an overly-critical eye. It seems like they could make up anything at this point.

    Of course that's true about most newspapers lately. Scandals involving plaguarizing journalists rocked USA Today, The New York Times, and The New Republic in the last few years.

    Page Six is seriously lame today, and leads with a story of "dueling dwarf bands." They did have this gem, though: evil bitch Naomi Campbell may appear on Oprah to cleanse her soul. She's also said to be fighting with Diddy after she pulled out of his cooking show. Now why would he still want her to come? She must be fabulous at tenderizing:

    We hear Campbell will sit down with Oprah Winfrey to talk about her anger-management issues...

    Embattled supermodel Naomi Campbell is feuding with her old pal, Sean "Puffy" Combs. The two - who until recently would travel the world together and party till dawn - are not talking after Campbell unexpectedly pulled out of the new NBC show Combs is producing, "Cooking Showdown," which pairs celebrities with superchefs. "Naomi found out Puff was the producer and dropped out," said our spy. Combs, who will have to do with just Ja Rule on his show, is mystified as to why she's so mad at him.

    You know Oprah is not going to be as hard on Naomi as she was on James Fry. Maybe Jared Paul Stern should go on Oprah to redeem himself too. He can sit there looking at his hands and act as if he's sorry that Page Six made up all those stories to try to embezzle money out of innocent billionaries and socialites.

    The NY Daily News says that Page Six's positive coverage of "Girls Gone Wild" mogul Joe Francis was totally influenced by Francis' star treatment of another Daily News coumnist, Richard Johnson. Francis held a lavish bachelor party for Johnson at his resort in Mexico and flew in all of Johnson's friends on his private jet. Page Six had a glowing report on Francis that ran afterwards, saying that he wanted to get into publishing to become "the next Hugh Hefner."

    Page Six is also said to have a chummy relationship with richie Ron Perelman, who recently jilted his wife Ellen Barkin.

    Buh-bye to that shitty rag.

    Maxim 100th issue party: Vanessa Minnillo catfight and Paris sings


    The Maxim 100th issue party was held on April 8th at Club Tryst at the Wynn Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. While Christina Aguilera and Haylie Duff showed up, Paris and Nicky Hilton are noticeably absent from the arrival and inside pictures of the party. We know that they were at the Maxim weekend event as they attended the poker tournament the day before.

    The sisters must have been too exhausted to party on Saturday night, because Perez Hilton reports that they were out quite late with a group the night before. Vanessa Minnillo had a cat fight! Paris also gave an impromptu performance of her entire CD at club Pure at 2:30 in the morning.

    After dinner, everyone headed to the nightclub area of Tao, where all the folks that had competed in the Maxim celebrity poker tournament came to get their after-party on.

    The highlight of the evening had to be when MTV VJ and Nick Lachey's new paramour, Vanessa Minnillo, was escorted out of the club for allegedly getting into a fight with a girl in the VIP area.

    Around 2:30 in the morning, Paris, Nicky, Jon Alagem, Perez and The Craigster all hopped in the car and headed over to Pure at Caesars' Palace, where Paris put on a show for the adoring crowd!!

    Totally spontaneous and utterly amazing, Paris handed the DJ at Pure her CD and proceeded to perform her entire album.

    Yeah, it was "hot." So hot that the crowd kept asking for more encores and Paris - eating it up - vamped and worked in on the stage, even doing some songs twice.

    Oh no. The crap has just begun with Paris' album. You can bet her singles are going to get more airplay and become stuck in a loop in your head worse that Madonna's "Hung Up."

    Here are some of the more sober people at the Maxim party the next night, including Jordan Bratman and Christina Aguilera, Hayden Christensen, Shannon Elizabeth, Taye Diggs, Usher, Lucy Lawless, Vanessa Minnillo, Carey Hart (without his wife pink), Haylie Duff, Kristy Swanson and James Franco. Lil Jon, Ludacris and Usher performed.

    16 pictures total.

    Gwyneth Paltrow gets Mortimer Moses cut out of her


    We read an unsourced rumor in the popbitch e-mail newsletter that Gwyneth Paltrow was tired of not being able to get drunk and had a C-section scheduled for this weekend. It looks like the rumor may have been true as Perez Hilton reports that Paltrow's child is now on the outside.

    PerezHilton.com is very pleased to be the first media outlet to exclusively confirm that Gwyneth and her husband, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, are proud parents of a new baby boy.

    We're waiting to hear confirmation on the poor kid's name.

    Update: The boy's name is Moses. That's not as bad as it could have been.

    Maxim 100th issue poker tournament


    The poker tournament proved to be a popular event at Maxim's 100th issue celebration in Las Vegas this weekend. Pictured guests include Paris and Nicky Hilton, Vanessa Minnillo, Dave Navarro, Shannon Elizabeth, Taye Diggs, Jamie Lynn-Sigler, Haylie Duff, Gabrielle Union, Kelly Monaco, Anne Heche, and Mekhi Phifer.

    Paris must have a thing for female VJs because she posed seductively with Vanessa Minnilo on the red carpet. She was seen in nude photographs with another VJ, Eglantina Zingg, in pictures hacked from her sidekick last year.

    Paris has said that she doesn't think she looks like Mother Teresa, but we couldn't find a quote that she turned down the role to play the saintly nun in an upcoming Bollywood feature despite news reports jumping to that conclusion.

    Here is Paris and company posing at the poker tournament. The winner was a guy named Robert Badgley, who took home a check for $10,000. We couldn't whether it went to charity or not through a half-assed google search.

    17 pictures total.

    Maxim 100th issue covergirl signing


    The c-listers were in Vegas this weekend for Maxim's 100th issue celebration. Events included a poker tournament, golf tournament, and party. We will post pictures from the poker tournament and party shortly.

    Maxim made headlines with a huge cover in the desert featuring Eva Longoria. Jossip points out that while the giant issue actually exists and is in the advertised spot, the Google Earth maps don't show it - you have to view the image from the Maxim website.

    Here are Tami Donaldson, Haylie Duff, Vanessa Minnillo, and Chop King of Cars at a Maxim covergirl signing on April 8th.

    Chop King of Cars owns the highest selling car dealership in America, and was profiled in an unflattering article in Maxim. We were originally going to title this article "Which of these women doesn't belong?" in an obvious dig at Duff, but with Chop King of Cars in the mix it just doesn't work.

    Mandy Moore in American Dreamz


    Mandy Moore stars in "American Dreamz," an American Idol parady that hits theatres on April 21st. Hugh Grant, who admittedly loved watching lots of reality TV in preparation for his role, plays the nasty Simon Cowell-based judge. Willem Dafoe stars as the chief of staff to the President (Dennis Quaid) who decides to guest judge on the reality show talent competition.

    Despite some unflattering pictures of Moore that came out recently, she looked svelte and pretty at the March 26 press conference for the film in New York.

    Wilmer Valderrama keeps talking about his relationships with famous starlets. He toned down the details for a NY Times interview, but still dished the dirt in his tell-all style:

    That afternoon, Mr. Valderrama, dressed in jeans and a sweatshirt and smelling of the cologne Drakkar Noir, was quite willing to discuss the women he has dated over the years. Mandy Moore was "the first love of my life," he said. "I was madly in love with her. She is one of the most wonderful women I've ever met; a real lady." He and his Ms. (Lindsay) Lohan, meanwhile, "had a really passionate relationship," he said. "There were so many factors that played into our breakup. We needed to do a lot of growing up on our own."

    Valderrama also emphasized how he wants to take his career to the next level and challenge himself as an actor. Obviously talking about anal sex on Howard Stern is not going to get him far.

    Here are Moore, Grant, and Dafoe at the American Dreamz press conference.
