Kid Rock took a bunch of his estranged wife Pamela Anderson’s friends to Hawaii in early December, and ever-reliable source The Globe reports that they gossiped about Pam during the vacation. They claim that Rock suspects that Pam faked her brief pregnancy, which ended in a miscarriage while she was filming Blonde and Blonder in Canada with Denise Richards. A supposed source says that Pam is “devastated” and thinks that Rock is trying to win her friends over to his side:

A source tells me that in early December, Kid sent his soon-to-be-ex a beautiful bouquet of flowers to let her know that he still loves her. Then days later, he whisked a bunch of her close pals, including L.A. socialite Diana Jenkins… David Space, and… Cindy Crawford and her hubby… to Hawaii for a U2/Pearl Jam concert and put them up at the luxurious Halekulani Hotel in Waikiki, where they dished the dirt - mostly about Pam! “Among other things, the Gang discussed Kid’s suspicions that Pam faked her pregnancy, her hard-partying ways and stupidity for not signing a prenup,” says the insider. “Needless to say, Pam is absolutely devastated. She believes that Kid is trying to influence her friends and turn them all against her. She feels deserted, as well. She especially doesn’t like the way Diana, who served as one of her two bridesmaids during her wedding bash in St. Tropez, has jumped in and started cozying up to Kid. it is a real slap in the face to her - and the ultimate betrayal.”

Pam struck out at Kid’s earlier claim that she was partying and neglecting her two children during their brief marriage. She said that he was lying when he claimed that she was out drinking every night, and that it was Rock that was away from home while she watched his son.

Both Pam and Kid Rock hosted parties in Las Vegas for New Years. Pam was at Tao at the Venetian and was seen getting cozy with Chuck Zito. Rock was at Jet at the Mirage.

Star magazine is reporting the unsurprising news that Jennifer Aniston has no intention of sitting down with Angelina Jolie for a little heart to heart. Angelina mentioned in a recent interview that she would love to have a little chat with Aniston. She claimed that nothing happened between her and Brad while they were filming Mr. and Mrs. Smith, but her comments that Brad was married to his “best friend” must have seemed like a backhanded dig to Aniston, who is said to have tried to get over the onslaught of news about her ex and his gorgeous fertile partner by doing yoga and bawling.

Now Star points out that Angelina requested several meetings with Aniston before that were all turned down. They quote a psychologist who says that Angelina is just trying to get over her man-stealing guilt by extending a PR olive branch to Aniston.

They’re really just stating the obvious, and might not have any insider information:

Apparently Angelina’s comments were particularly infuriating because the Mr. & Mrs. Smith star had forgotten to mention that Jen had already rebuffed several previous attempts at reconciliation! “Jen says Angelina could have told Vogue that she had already made it clear that she wanted nothing to do with her,” says the source.

Angelina’s comments, including her claim that she and Brad Pitt, 43, were just “very, very good friends” during filming of Mr. and Mrs. Smith and only became lovers after he and Jen had separated, have put Aniston in a funk as the holidays approach, the source tells Star. “Angelina has opened up some old wounds with Jen, wounds she thought had healed,” the source tells Star. “It seems like revisionist history to her to paint this picture of how Angelina and Brad got together. Jen says a lot of it is plain bull!”

The article goes on to say that Aniston is perplexed that Angelina is bringing up all this old shit. They quote a psychologist who says that “There is a manipulative aspect on Angelina’s part in requesting this sit-down. Angelina wants to alleviate her guilt. It’s better for Jen to move on than to forgive this person. A sit-down isn’t going to help Jen at all.”

Jen is said to be “in a fragile state” now that she’s alone for the holidays. There was speculation that she almost ran into her more recent ex Vince Vaughn at the Beverly Hills Hotel over Christmas, but only Courteney Cox and David Arquette were at the hotel at the same time as Vaughn. Aniston was nowhere to be found.

It does seem really rude of Angelina to request a sit down with Aniston. If my husband left me for someone else unexpectedly I’d steer clear of her too.

These old pictures of Brad and Jen in June 2000 show how much alike they once were. Thanks to SimplyBrad for these pics.

Ryan Philippe bought over $600 worth of lace camisoles and panties at an LA boutique and told a salesperson the items were for “someone special” most likely his latest girlfriend. He then headed to a children’s store and got a bunch of stuffed animals for his children.

RYAN PHILLIPPE strolls into a swanky LA lingerie boutique and buys three lace-and-silk camisoles ($125 each), plus three of those hot new boy-style panties ($105 each). He tells the saleslady the sexy stuff is for “someone special!” Then, just minutes later, Ryan pops up at a posh kiddie store, where he pops for a pile of stuffed animals!… Okay, folks, I’ve reported – now you decide! Sounds like he’s a generous dad – but was Ryan buyin’ frillies for REESE WITHERSPOON, his estranged wife, or…what? I mean, are these gifts for making up…or making out?

Chances are Ryan was buying the stuff for someone other than his estranged wife, Reese Witherspoon. Reese shut him out of the mansion they once shared with their two children, Ava, 8, and Deacon, 3, and most likely would not appreciate some sexy underwear for Christmas.

Reese was spotted out doing some shopping of her own on 12/19. Pictures from Hollywood’s Best.

While Britney gets constant press for stepping out drunk in various stages of undress, K-Fed tries to prove what a great dad he is by taking his kids with Shar Jackson to Disneyland. Shar was pregnant with K-Fed’s second spawn when he left her for Britney, but since he still supports her she has only praise for him in the press.

K-Fed took his daughter, Kori, and son, Kaleb, (his children with actress Shar Jackson) on a five-and-a-half hour excursion to Disneyland on Wednesday evening, The ShowBuzz has confirmed.

Federline arrived at the California theme park just before 5 p.m. with his two children, an assistant and two others who appeared to be security guards.

“We had been notified the day before that they wanted to come so we made the appropriate arrangements,” a source from Disneyland says.

Father and daughter first jumped on the Disneyland railroad, went to New Orleans Square and got on the Haunted Mansion, which is decorated for the Tim Burton film “The Nightmare Before Christmas.”

“Kori said it was her first time at Disneyland … She clearly loved her dad and she was having fun,” the source said. “He was asking her ‘What do you want to do next?’ ”

Kori went on rides with her father while little Kaleb slept. “Kaleb was actually asleep in the stroller and he didn’t want to wake him up,” the source says.

They all stayed to watch the Christmas parade and the Christmas fireworks show and left at about 10:30 p.m., after fake snow fell on Main street.

“He was just like any dad with his kids. She was a very sweet little girl,” the source said.

K-Fed is suing Britney for custody of his other two children, in what people say is a move to secure a larger settlement in the divorce. He’s obviously using his kids with Shar to make him seem like a better dad to the public, and his ploy might just work. Britney is doing herself no favors by being seen out half dressed at high profile nightspots in the middle of the week.

Britney is shown in these pictures with a backless see-through lace dress, which she wore to her mom’s birthday party. Pictures from Splash News Online.

Pamela Anderson was at the tattoo artist about to get inked with her new husband Kid Rock’s name when she had a reminder of how fleeting relationships can be. The tattoist told her that he’d recently done some work on her ex husband, Tommy Lee. That is said to have reminded her of the ring tattoo of Tommy’s name she had around her wedding finger, which she changed to “Mommy!” once they broke up. Pamela hightailed it out of there, and it’s a good thing because her relationship with Rock lasted only a few weeks longer:

Here’s a PAMELA ANDERSON story I heard last week, but now I’m glad I didn’t tell you - because her decision to divorce KID ROCK makes it a truly poignant tale! Pam popped into Vancouver’s West Coast Tattoo to ink her new hubby’s name on her bod… but suddenly paused when the tattoo artist bragged he’d just illustrated the skins of the “Rock Star: Supernova” cast - including ex-hubby TOMMY LEE. In a sudden memory of how fleeting love can be, Pam eyed her ring finger - where Tommy’s name had been tattooed in happier days - then nixed a Kid Rock tat, saying: “Maybe I’d better wait and see how things work out!” (WHEW!…Close call, girlfriend.)

It seems like the only names you should ever get tattooed with are the names of your parents or kids, or maybe a friend who has died who you can no longer argue with.

There may be another reason Pam decided against getting a tattoo at that point. She claimed that she contracted Hepatitis C from Tommy Lee after sharing a tattoo needle with him. So any tattoos she got while she was married to him must remind her of their failed relationship and the chronic illness he left her with. That didn’t stop her from running back to him for a public makeout session after she filed for divorce, though.

Anderson has said that she’s coping with her divorce from Kid Rock by doing lots of baking and home decorating. From what I remember of an MTV show I saw of her house, she likes that feminine shabby chic french country style. Maybe she should call up Tori Spelling to come help her out.

Update: Popoholic has a top five list of celebrity tattooed babes. Pamela Anderson comes in at five, and Angelina Jolie predictably tops the list. Her “Know your rights” upper back tatoo was visible at the NY premiere of The Good Shephard this week.

Britney’s new boyfriend, J.R. Rotem, may be an accomplished music producer, but he sure looks like as much of a douche as K-Fed, and he seems to have an inflated sense of his own importance. He lunched at The Ivy and tried to get into Hyde nightclub, the hottest spot in town, but was predictably turned away. All of this comes after he was photographed kissing Britney. Do you think he did it because he genuinely likes her?

Two nights after cameras spotted music producer “J.R.” Rotem locking lips with the Britster at The Grove, her rumored rebound guy tried to use his newfound star power to get into Hollywood hotspot, Hyde. Sadly for him, but amusing for us, Rotem got denied.

Moments after his reality check, Rotem took the loser walk down to another nightclub, where they welcomed the Gotti look-a-like with open arms.

K-Fed has cleaned up his look and seems to be laying low, or maybe no one in interested in him anymore and it just looks like he’s calming down. One of his “friends” told Star magazine that K-Fed has “gone GQ” and is going to fight for custody of his children.

There also is speculation that Kevin is threatening Britney with a tell-all book if she doesn’t give him a decent settlement in the divorce.

It’s being reported by a less than reputable source that Paul McCartney is going to secretly give harpie Heather Mills a $235 million divorce settlement so that she’ll stay the fuck away from him and he can be done with this whole sorry business.

Mills is stupidly representing herself in divorce court, and a divorce attorney friend tells me that it’s likely she pissed off her high-priced lawyer, who may have told her that she should go another route if she wasn’t willing to follow their advice. My lawyer friend also says it’s incredibly stupid of Mills to try to represent herself when most any representation would be better than going it alone.

All that might not matter if this news is true though. Paul is said to be trying to make it seem publically like he’s giving lying Heather just $19.5 million, when the real amount is more than ten times that amount

Sir PAUL McCARTNEY will give his estranged wife HEATHER MILLS a $235 million (£120 million) divorce package to safeguard his health, according to a British newspaper.

The News Of The World reports the former BEATLE was urged to agree the deal by his daughters STELLA and MARY because they are concerned the bitter divorce battle is affecting his well being.

The siblings reportedly told their father, “If this goes on, it could kill you. Being happy is more important than money.”

The newspaper claims McCartney will publicly give his estranged wife a mere $19.5 million (£10 million), most of which she’ll donate to charity.

But she’ll actually secure an enormous secret package including $5.9 million (£3 million) a year as a divorce settlement, $15.7 million (£8 million) to buy homes in America and Europe, $5.9 million (£3 million) for English accommodation and more than $3.9 million (£2 million) a year for staff and general expenses for the next 15 years.

One of McCartney’s aides tells the newspaper, “It’s a done deal and Paul is relieved.”

There’s also a bizarre story that someone found heaps of personal photos of Paul and Heather, including more skeevy shots of Heather nude, in a public garbage heap. It sounds like someone planted them there:

Private photos of the former Beatle and Mills - including one of Mills in a bath wearing nothing but diamond earrings - were found dumped at a British rubbish tip.

The bizarre find also included pictures of Mills draped in a sheet in bed, with her artificial leg standing in a black stiletto nearby.

There are others in which she poses nude, showing off her bump while heavily pregnant.

There are also pictures of McCartney’s special moments with his and Mills’ daughter Beatrice.

One set shows McCartney feeding her with a silver spoon, and another of him cuddling his daughter, who is wearing a T-shirt with the words: “My Daddy Rocks”.

Tender photos of McCartney’s first wife, Linda, on holiday in Australia were also in the bags found at the tip.

The pictures appeared to be from a McCartney family album. However, nobody could explain how they got there.

Sir Paul told British newspaper The Sun in London he had no idea how the pictures found their way to the tip.

“I’m very grateful to The Sun for getting these pictures back to me,” McCartney said.

Now how would someone find these and contact The Sun about them? It’s all a bit suspicious.

I hope that this story about Heather getting such a huge settlement is false, though. She doesn’t deserve more than a kick in the ass.

Thanks to Gossip Rocks for these stories.

Heather Mills can’t afford the nearly $30g a day that her fancy lawyers demand to represent her in her divorce proceedings against billionaire rocker Paul McCartney. Instead of writing an IOU or hiring a cheaper lawyer, she’s decided to represent herself in court some of the time. It seems like she could have found a more affordable fill-in lawyer instead of trying to go it alone, but she’s extreme and determined like that.

She’s also rather stupid. If she had a competent lawyer with her at all times she’d be more likely to get a decent settlement. The judge is probably going to give her less in the settlement after listening to her haughty sourpuss arguments. By saving thousands here she’s probably screwing herself out of millions. That sounds like the fiscal strategy of a lot of bosses I’ve worked for.

Heather Mills, the estranged wife of Sir Paul McCartney, has taken the unusual step of representing herself in the divorce battle with the former Beatle.

Ms Mills dispensed with barristers for an appearance at the High Court last week and on Wednesday during applications to keep Sir Paul out of her home and to gain access to his.

It is believed that Ms Mills, who has retained the services of London law firm Mishcon de Reya in the main divorce battle over money and custody of three-year-old daughter Beatrice, is trying to keep her legal costs down. Barristers can charge upwards of £15,000 a day.

Her final legal bill could already top £1 million, although she is likely to receive at least £20 million and as much as £100 million. Sir Paul has an estimated £825 million fortune.

When Ms Mills brought her own action in the High Court last week she was photographed clutching an A4 note pad containing scribbled notes. The notes formed the basis of her speech and were headed: “I’m seeking an order for occupation of the matrimonial home. The decision on her application to have Sir Paul, 64, kept out of her home in Hove, East Sussex, is expected soon.

Everyone and their brother is calling Mills a liar after she claimed that Paul abused her and was cruel to his ex-wife, Linda. Her own father said she’s a notorious liar and that it’s not true that Paul laid a finger on her. The latest person to hate on harpie Heather is Paul’s cousin.

Reliable news source In Touch is reporting that a witness saw Britney in a restaurant bathroom with a purse full of pills, including antidepressant Paxil and the antianxiety drug Xanax. Britney is said to have popped a Xanax right in front of everyone. You’re probably not supposed to mix those drugs, and you’re definitely not supposed to drink with them. At least they’re legal if she has a prescription for them:

On November 27 Britney dined at Dan Tana’s restaurant in West Hollywood - where she was also spotted carrying a glass of red wine out to her car before taking the wheel - and during a visit to the powder room a fellow diner caught a glimpse inside her handbag.

The source told In Touch Weekly magazine: “It looked like a pharmacy in there - I have never seen so many pills.

“There was a bottle of Paxil, an antidepressant, and a bottle of Xanax, which treats anxiety, that she took out and put on the counter.”

The directions for both these drugs state they should not be mixed with alcohol.

Taking some medication isn’t that damning. I mean Britney never goes home so she has to take her meds somewhere. She shouldn’t be drinking too, and driving, and neglecting her kids, but whatever. I was going to mention something about breastfeeding, but it’s not prohibited while you’re on Paxil and that seems to be a non-issue with little miss vag.

Oh I read a doubtful rumor yesterday that Britney was in talks to design her own panty line. She name-dropped Victoria’s Secret on her website, so it’s possible.

There’s also this explosive news that K-Fed is accusing Britney of banging Mario Lopez when she hung out in Vegas with him one weekend. According to The National Enquirer (as reported by Splash News, and it must be the print version because it’s not on their website) K-Fed says that Britney bragged about how she slept with Lopez, and that she spent a whole weekend holed up with him in a Vegas hotel:

Mario Lopez and Britney Spears met in the high rollers lounge at The Palms Casino when Britney was in town recording some tracks for her new album. This chance meeting led to a two day sex romp in Britney’s hotel room.

Honestly, I don’t know if any of this is true because they story comes from someone in Kevin Federline’s camp but here are some highlights of the story:

Kevin Federline is demanding that his baby son Jayden James is blood-tested to see if hard-partying Britney is putting him at risk by breastfeeding.

When she was introduced to Mario, she giggled, ‘I’ve heard so much about you.’ Mario replied, ‘I hope it was good.’ With a wicked grin, Britney said, ‘Oh, yes, it was very good.’

The pair headed to Moon nightclub where they put on a show on the dance floor. Britney was drinking a lot (of course) and her dancing with Mario became more and more suggestive. The two of them put on quite a show for the other patrons.

Afterwards, K-Fed heard that Mario was going around saying that Britney cried at the oddest time (gross).

Kevin says that Britney threw out that Mario was ‘better’ than he was (duh!)

And he said he wouldn’t be surprised if Britney slept with someone she just met - because that’s exactly what happened when he met Britney. (way to label your soon-to-be ex-wife and mother of your two kids a whore)

If this is true Lopez didn’t waste time moving on. He was seen kissing and groping his “Dancing with the Stars” partner, Karina Smirnoff.

Just like Britney, K-Fed is attempting to clean up his image but is going about it half-assed and failing. He supposedly put out a press release stating that he’s changed his whole look and has abandoned the loose hip-hop gear in favor of suits. Wearing suits will solve everything, K-Fed.

FedEx and his posse attended a party in NY for a new book called “The Concise Guide to Sounding Smart at Parties” and was said to actually be interested in what the book was about. He later reverted to old ways and was downing shots at the open bar.

Fully clothed K-Fed still is coming off as the less f’ed up party in his divorce with Britney though. In an interview with E! he doesn’t sound like as much of a douche as he normally does. Maybe they edited out the bragging he normally does:

“I am good, I am great, you know … just moving along, progressing and taking it all in stride,” the 28-year-old aspiring rapper tells E! News in an interview that was to air Wednesday night…

Federline, who is seeking spousal support and sole custody of his sons with Spears, says he’s a family man and “that is the truth … in all honesty, that is what it is.”

He is also the father of a 4-year-old daughter, Kori, and a 2-year-old son, Kaleb, with actress Shar Jackson. They dated before he became involved with Spears.

Meanwhile, the media is giving the club-hopping Federline a tough time.

“I laugh a little bit about it you know,” he said. “I don’t take it too seriously. Those are people who don’t really know who I am.”

His debut album, Playing With Fire, sold a dismal 6,500 copies in its first week of release. The CD was released Oct. 31.

When asked about it, Federline says he’s “working it slowly, still trying to get out there and do more stuff … I got a lot of options on the table right now.”

His New Year’s resolution?

To be “a little bit wiser, a little bit stronger.”

That all sounds surprisingly normal coming from K-Fed.
