Haylie Duff got her chin and nose fixed

19332PCN_Duffs

Hilary Duff’s older sister Haylie has definitely had a nose job. Though she didn’t splash it on the cover of a magazine with a confessional article (a la Ashlee Simpson), it’s clear to anyone with eyes (at least anyone with eyes who happens to be looking at Haylie Duff) that she’s gone under the knife. And while I never believe people should feel pressured to “fix” parts of their bodies that have the nerve to deviate from the norm, in Haylie’s case it is an improvement.

I’m not a fan of the notion that there should be just a few ways our bodies can look, and anything else needs to be corrected. But Haylie’s nose and chin did make her the subject of some ridicule, and it no doubt bothered her since she’s changed them. I hesitate to say “fixed” since that implies there was something wrong with them before.

Haylie Duff looked a lot more like her younger sibling Hilary Duff when she debuted a new blonde ’do, pert nose and small chin while out shopping at the AG Adriano Goldschmied store in Beverly Hills on May 21.

“Haylie had her nose done and her chin reduced,” New York City–based plastic surgeon Dr. Thomas P. Sterry, who has not treated Haylie, tells Star, explaining that Haylie’s nose has been shortened, angled upward and rounded off.

“I think they made her chin smaller by chipping away at the bone,” he adds.

Haylie’s altered appearance, which costs an estimated $20,000, looks like a million bucks!

“This is a good job,” notes Dr. Sterry. “I think Haylie’s features have better harmony.” Hilary would approve!

Though the nose is the first thing you go to, I think the chin actually makes the bigger difference in Haylie’s appearance. Her nose didn’t really stand out when you were looking at her straight on – it was only in profile shots that you’d notice something was a bit unusual. But her chin was a bit long from any angle. That said, while it is an improvement, I’m actually not a big fan of how her chin ended up. I think the doctor overdid it a bit. It’s fine, but I think he could have left a little more there and she would have looked more like herself. Haylie looks great, but doesn’t look as much like Haylie. I always think of what “Dirty Dancing” star Jennifer Grey said after she got her nose job – that she never looked like herself again. It was technically good work – but it made Grey look like everyone else in Hollywood, and there was nothing about her face that made her unique. And it must be strange to always look in the mirror and feel a little bit jarred.

Haylie looks good – and hopefully she’s really pleased with the results, which is ultimately all that matters.

Hilary Duff’s dad sent to jail for contempt of court in family hearing


Hilary Duff’s mom, Susan, took her former husband Bob Duff to court near Houston, Texas yesterday in an attempt to get him to plunk down an additional $25,000 in child support to pay for Hilary’s 21st birthday party. Bob pays $10,000 a month in child support for his daughters Hilary, 20, and Haylie, 23, despite the fact that both young women are successful and live in their own home in LA together. Their mother also lives in LA while he remains in Houston. Hilary is already a millionaire in her own right, with a net worth estimated at $25 million. Susan wanted another $25k for Hilary’s birthday, because that’s how much Haylie’s party cost and she thought that was perfectly reasonable. $10k a month only goes so far, and Susan says she is reduced to borrowing from her richer daughters to pay her bills.

The courtroom got pretty heated between the lawyers for both sides. It sounds like Bob got contempt of court for disobeying court orders, though, not for an outburst. He sold some of his stocks even though he’s not supposed to sell assets and was ordered to pay his earnings of $367,537 to the court and led out in handcuffs. Bob was sentenced to 10 days in jail, but can presumably meet bail and should be out soon. As if all those penalties and jail time weren’t enough, he’ll also have to pay $12,500 to his ex wife, half the cost of the planned birthday party for Hilary:

Stansbury eventually ordered Bob to pay $12,500 to Susan for Hilary’s birthday.

Bob took another hit when Stansbury ordered him to spend 10 days in jail for contempt of court. He is accused of violating an injunction against selling assets without court approval and must pay $367,537 he earned from selling stocks last month into a court repository.

Piro said his client plans to post bond as soon as possible and file an appeal.

At the end of the hearing, deputies fingerprinted Bob and led him away in handcuffs. When Susan saw the deputies click the cuffs on her husband, she gasped and put her hand over her mouth.

“This isn’t what I wanted,” she murmured.

That sounds like a particularly harsh judge. Is it normal procedure to send someone to jail for selling stocks in violation of an injuction? You would think that making him fork over that insane amount of cash would be penalty enough.

There’s also the whole issue of the parents having to pay for Hilary’s birthday. She’s doing fine on her own and she’s been sporting what looks like an engagement ring from her boyfriend, hockey player Mike Comrie, who is also a multi-millionaire. He could easily pay for Hilary’s party if she doesn’t want to foot the bill. Instead, her mother insisted her dad pay for it and he got hauled off to jail during the court proceedings. Whatever party she does have will be marred by what happened to her dad.

Hilary Duff’s song Gypsy Woman, released Spring, 2007, is about her dad’s affair while he was still married to her mom. Hilary blamed the woman for breaking up her family in both the song and her statements about it.

Myspace security hole exposes private comments by Lindsay, Paris, etc.


There’s this huge security flaw in myspace that lets you read comments on private profiles, and I’ve pretty much read all the crap that Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Hillary Duff, and Nicole Richie are saying to each other. Paris got told by her PR guy Elliott to cut it out and she was supposedly grounded from using the computer, but of course she didn’t comply and continued commenting.

This was up on Oh No They Didn’t and got a brief mention in The NY Daily News, but the ONTD post is private now and I learned about it through a friend’s e-mail.

The thing is, there’s a formula to it and it really doesn’t matter if someone changes their profile name or password. Once you know their numeric user ID it’s incredibly simple to do, and as long as they keep commenting it’s easy to find out their numeric user ID.

They seem to realize that people are reading their comments and are talking about all the new people asking to be added as friends, but they don’t really get the fact that changing their passwords and screen names doesn’t fix the problem.

I was really reluctant to report on this at first as 1) there’s way too much information to sift through and report 2) it feels wrong and 3) I don’t want to get sued. Plus I got sucked into the voyeuristic aspect of it and I wanted to be able to keep spying.

Best Week Ever has the links, though. I know this is Monday’s news but somehow it fell under my radar.

The juiciest news: Lindsay, Hilary, and Paris talk about doing banana and strawberry “Nesquick” and returning “needles” to each other. They could just be joking around. They’re also all friends with Jesse McCartney, and he could be screwing Lindsay, because he says:

Woww last night=amazing.
I see how you cant have your husband on your top 8

But it’s just as likely that they’re joking around, and of course there’s no way to verify that it’s really Lindsay, Paris et. al, but I believe.

Paris also tells Lindsay:

its so sad our secret rendezvous at sky villa saturday is out i think we managed to keep it well hidden considering its now tuesday and its just starting to come out now we gettin good at hiding our love for each other bitch

And it looks like Paris is BFF with Lindsay again because she’s using an icon of the two of them together.

Here’s my favorite comment, from Haylie Duff to Jesse McCartney:

ah the usual, but what about you, anything new ..

oh how’s J.Lo? lmao. j/k

If you have any kind of logic skills you’ll quickly be able to figure out how to view anyone’s private comments using the links from the Best Week Ever post above.

Myspace will undoubtedly fix this soon, and it’s a huge security flaw. According to myspace’s user agreement everything on the site legally belongs to them, so I don’t know if any celebrity lawyers can sue for reposting information found on myspace, but if it gets widely distributed like Paris’ hacked Blackberry they’re sure to try.

Hot Hollywood Awards: huge picture post

Us Weekly’s Hot Hollywood Awards were held Wednesday night. Jessica Alba had a near nip-slip that resulted in some cute picture of her pulling her dress strap up. (Wireimage did not capture this, so you’ll have to see it everywhere else.)

Despite Us Weekly’s content, stars were pleased to show up for the party.

Jennifer Love Hewitt said she has ended up several times on the magazine’s worst-dressed list, but was still tickled that she won the hottest body award in the new issue. Both Hewitt and Jesse McCartney showed up with shorter ‘dos. And Tori Spelling confirmed that she has hired a wedding planner for her upcoming nuptials to Dean McDermott. Still, she insisted she’s planning something small. “I just want to look good for him,” Spelling said.

We have over 50 pictures of the party arrivals, including Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jessica Alba, Alessandra Ambrosio, Brittany Murphy, Cindy Margolis, Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon, Ludacris, Harry Hamlin, Lisa Rinna, Haylie Duff, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Paris Hilton, Victoria Silvstedt, Avril Lavigne, Carmen Electra, Dave Navarro, Michelle Trachtenberg, Rachael Leigh Cook, Nicky Hilton, Gabrielle Union, Kelly Osbourne, Kimberly Stewart, Stacy Keibler, Ryan Seacrest, Sofia Vergara, Taryn Manning, Maria Sharapova, Melinda Clarke, Tom Green with a fanny pack, and Tori Spelling.

Update: Images removed on request.

The Duffs vs. The Simpsons in a four-sister catfight


The Duff and Simpson sisters happened to be at the same club in LA when Ashlee Simpson decided to call Hilary Duff fat. Haylie Duff defended her sister, and later talked smack to Jessica Simpson in the bathroom.

Hilary and Haylie Duff were celebrating a friend’s birthday at Basque in L.A. when Ashlee Simpson allegedly approached the Duffs’ table, and remarked that Hilary’s arms looked “chunky.” Haylie told her to beat it, like any big sister would. Later in the ladies’ room, the still-steamed Haylie had some words for Ashlee’s own big sister, Jessica Simpson. A rep for the Simpsons said, “Ashlee thinks Hilary has perfectly lovely arms.” The Duffs’ rep, Cece Yorke, said, “They said they had a really fun night.”

It looks like Ashlee and Haylie are the more aggressive sisters and it’s too bad there wasn’t an all-out fight between the two to report. Maybe if Haylie ran into Ashlee in the bathroom instead of Jessica there would have been more to report.

Ashlee is incredibly immature and petty but that’s not news. The Simpson’s rep is also pretty stupid if she’s giving quotes like “Ashlee thinks Hilary has perfectly lovely arms.”

Here is Jessica Simpson out with her hairdresser to watch Dean Cook’s performance at The Improv on April 15th. [via]

Update: Pictures of Hilary performing in Dublin on 4/21. Her arms do look chunky. [via]

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.

Backstage at the 2BFree Fashion Show


Tara Reid and Haylie Duff watched Paris and Nicky walk the catwalk at the 2BFree Fashion Show.

Paris and Nicky posed backstage in what looks like a hotel room. Paris is so inebriated that she comes off as desperate rather than provacative. Eight more after the jump.

Hillary and Haylie Duff at Auto Club 500

Wonder how much they got paid just to show up. Wish my sister was famous. I’m not going to say anything about veneers or plastic surgery or that anyone has had any or needs anything done. [via]
