Beyonce plans huge wedding to Jay-Z


Beyonce, 24, is reportedly planning to marry her boyfriend, Def Jam president Jay-Z, 36, in a lavish ceremony on the Island of Anguilla this November. Star reports that the reception has a $3 million price tag and that it will include $300,000 worth of caviar alone. There won't be any Cristal at this bash:

The “Dreamgirls” star is set to wed rap impresario Jay Z, and the lavish event will come with a $3 million price tag, according to the upcoming Star.

The former Destiny’s Child member is planning a late November wedding on the Caribbean island of Anguilla, reports the tab. Guests at the bash will dine on $300,000 worth of Beluga caviar as well as lobster and Italian truffles and will wash it down with $200 bottles of Dom Perignon. Knowles’ wedding dress will be modeled after Princess Diana’s, reports the Star, and among the guests invited are Oprah Winfrey and U.N. head Kofi Annan.

An impediment to the marriage had been Beyoncé’s manager father, Matthew Knowles, and his misgivings about the 36-year-old Jay Z’s relationship with his 24-year-old daughter, but Matthew Knowles has apparently come around and given the romance his blessing.

“Beyoncé’s telling friends it will be ‘the wedding to end all weddings,’” according to the source. “Beyoncé feels like she’s living a fairy tale so why shouldn’t her wedding be equally magical?”

That's nice that Beyonce's father has given his blessing as she was said to have some trouble getting out from under his thumb and running her own career and life.

This isn't the first time that we've heard rumors that these two were getting married. Back in early June Jay-Z lost weight on a high-protein diet sponsored by Beyonce. People speculated that his weight loss was a sign that he was preparing to marry the pop singer.

In late June it was rumored that Beyonce and Jay-Z were spending too much time apart and that they were breaking up, but that was only reported by a single source and the couple has been spotted out and about many times since. They even performed together at Radio City Music Hall.

Beyonce recently revealed that she has a sexy dress she puts on whenever she needs to seduce her man. She even wrote a song about it called "Freakum Dress" that will be on her new album.

Here is Beyonce in September's Essence [via Concrete Loop] and performing at the Radio One 25th Anniversary Gala. [via SavingFace]

Paris Hilton's mom told her that giving blowjobs gives you acne scars


Us Weeky has the highlights from Paris Hilton's new interview in Blender magazine, and they're hilarious. She "f'in hates" when fans touch her, cries when listening to her own album, and reveals that her baby-doll act and insane ambition were inspired by her narcissistic grandmother.

The best part, though, is that her mom Kathy told her that acne scars were caused by giving oral sex. At age 19, Paris supposedly believed her:

“My mom told me that you get those holes in your face, craters – she knew this person who had craters. I’m like, ‘What is that from?’ She’s like, from giving bl-w j-bs.” “I’m like, ‘You get craters?’ And I totally believed her. She’s like, ‘It’s from sucking.’ I’m like, ‘Ewwww!’ I told my boyfriend – he’s like, ‘Why don’t you ever do that?’ I’m like, ‘Because my mom told me you get these craters.’ And he’s like, ‘Paris, you’re 19. You’re allowed to do this.’”

Maybe Pink believes this too, and that's why she thinks blowjobs are gross.

Is it surprising that at the age of 19 Paris was as gullibe and uninformed about sex as the average grade school student? Maybe she wouldn't be as successful if she wasn't that stupid. It's a good thing for her that she never finished high school.

Here are some pictures of Paris at an in-store appearance at Best Buy on August 18th and in Blender Magazine.

Thanks to Gossipin for the tip, and to Hollywoods Best for these photos.

Lindsay Lohan to start a tattoo parlor and put out a photography book


Lindsay Lohan just can't slow down. The girl loves talking about herself, and she really likes looking at herself too. She told I-d Magazine that she doesn't read the tabloids, but she does look at her own pictures. Big surprise:

"I don't read the tabloids much anymore. (I just look at the pictures to see how I am in other people's eyes.) I'm comfortable in my own skin. You know, you really want to please everyone, but I'm not going to do things just to make other people happy. I've learned to say 'no' more than 'yes.' I mean, nothing against the people who do, but I would never do a line for K-mart or something. I love fashion too much. There are certain things I want to do."
[from the September, 2006 issue of I-d Magazine, print edition]

One of those "things" is put out a book of photographs of herself and her friends, including Karl Lagerfeld, who she brags about knowing, She talks about charity, too, but it's doubtful she'll ever get to it with all the other crap she's planning:

[Lindsay wants] to open a boutique in Paris carrying work by Lagerfeld...

She's also putting together a book of photographs of herself, Moss, Lagerfeld, and others for a book, "It's going to be called Narcissist." She pauses and looks off as if to say, I know what people are going to say and I don't care.

She has started a production company and is teaming with her good friend, Natalie Portman... on a project.

She's planning a trip to Kenya, "I've always wanted my own charity. That's something I'm really involved in. Something I will have more time for in the long run."

She goes on to talk about her plans to visit Iraq while channeling Marilyn Monroe.

This girl is so full of shit. She admitted as much this week by saying that she "says things that aren't true a lot." That's called lying, Lindsay! Is everyone else as sick of this girl's bullshit as I am?

Britain's The Sun reports that Lindsay plans to open a tattoo parlor in LA! Let's hope this isn't true:

A pal told me: “Lindsay is setting up her own tattoo place which will be like a trendy, glass-fronted fashion store. She will work on her own designs and will market it to young society people.

“Lindsay wants to create a complete brand which will move into clothes and merchandising. She’s looking for business partners and tattooists to come in on it with her.”

Lindsay, girl, slow down. You're going to burn out more than your voice.

Here is Lindsay in I-d Magazine, courtesy of Linds-Lo.com

Christina Aguilera's childhood abuse heartache


Christina Aguilera told USA Weekend magazine that she suffered from her father's abuse while her family was stationed on a military base. She says that domestic abuse is common on military bases in her experience. Starpulse runs the quote from the article with commentary that she's "attacking" military bases, but she seems to be speaking about her childhood and doesn't overgeneralize:

Speaking exclusively to USA Weekend magazine, Aguilera says, "We lived on Army bases when I was little, and it (domestic violence) was happening a lot. The MPs (military police) would come, but a lot of them were doing the same things (to their wives and kids). I was surrounded with domestic violence, not only in my home but my friends'."

Aguilera has never been one to shy away from the abuse she experienced as her mother and father fought and often writes about her memories in songs like "I'm OK" and new song "Oh Mother."

She adds, "It's therapeutic for me to talk about it. It gives me a reason to understand why I went through what I did."

That's too bad that Christina had to go through that as a child and it's good that she found a decent man like Jordan and didn't pick another creep like her dad. It's hard to take her seriously as a person, though, when it's rumored that she doesn't even look interviewers in the eye. Still, she should be commended for talking about her difficult childhood.

Here is Christina in a Robert Sebree Photoshoot (via Gossipin) and in Seventeen Magazine (from Hollywood's Best)

Paris Hilton lookalike in Playboy (NSFW)


Canadian Natalie Reid has perfected the vacant stare and flat affect of Paris Hilton, and one of the commentors on Oh No They Didn't! points out that she even has a wonky eye like Paris. Natalie's bad eye seems to be her right one, while Paris' lazy eye is her left, though. Natalie's jaw is also a bit wider, but the resemblance is uncanny. Reid says that she hung out once with Paris at her Hollywood home, and said that Paris was "totally in shock" to be face to face with her doppleganger.

It doesn't really matter if Paris refuses to do Playboy. We've all seen her goodies, and as Natalie shows she's pretty interchangeable.

Frances Bean Cobain in her late dad's clothing


Frances Bean Cobain wore her late dad Kurt's clothing to an Elle photoshoot that featured rock and roll children in their parent's attire. She donned the pajama pants he wore when he married crazy Courtney and his trademark brown floppy cardigan:

Frances Bean Cobain stunned photographers on a new Elle magazine photo shoot when she turned up wearing her late father Kurt Cobain's old pajamas.

The shoot featured celebrity offspring wearing the clothes of their rock 'n' roll parents -- with Kimberly and Ruby Stewart sporting old lumberjack coats belonging to their dad Rod, and Midge Ure's daughter Molly Lorenne modeling the coat her father wore in the Ultravox video for "Vienna."

But 14-year-old Cobain's apparel, first worn by the tragic Nirvana frontman on his wedding day to Courtney Love, was a more bizarre choice.

She says, "He got married to my mom in them in Hawaii in 1992 so I thought it'd be cute if I wore them today."

That's really touching. I remember when I heard that Kurt Cobain committed suicide, and I was just about to graduate from college. (Yes, I'm old!) We all listened to Nirvana back then and it was such a big deal when Kurt died.

14 year-old Frances seems to be doing well considering she lost her father and her mom has been in and out of rehab. In the interview she says that she enjoys acting and photography, but is really focused on school and wants to "enhance her social life." Her dream is to become a movie director.

Her mom Courtney Love may be cleaned up now, but she's not looking good.

Britney Spears wants to start own celebrity magazine "The Real"



Kevin Federline has been quoted talking about a magazine he and Britney plan on launching that will counter the gossip and fake news made up by the tabloids:

KEVIN FEDERLINE has added his support to wife BRITNEY SPEARS' plans to launch a new magazine to counter rumours they read in the press. Spears recently vowed to publish "the real deal" about their lives and relate other celebrity news too. Speaking to American magazine Steppin' Out, Federline says of thier idea for 'The Real', "It's not just us. Everybody has been lied about in the tabloids. "Everybody has false truths and false images and false stuff perceived on them. Maybe not as much as me and my wife get. But everybody has it." Federline feels the proposed venture would provide a valuable service to fellow celebrities, adding, "I think a magazine like that, would attract all the stars. I think they would want to go to that magazine and tell the truth! "I'm not kidding. This is something I want to do for real".

This sounds like one of those things you talk about with your spouse when you've had a few, like "Wouldn't it be great if I started my own business?" and then they go and tell your friends about it when you haven't really thought it through and didn't want the news to come out.

I really doubt Britney and Kevin are clever enough to harness the talent to start a huge venture like this. Britney couldn't even accept help getting prepared for a primetime TV interview, so this unlikely to happen.

Remember when Britney was said to be creating her own line of baby clothing and even took out a trademark for it? What happened with that?

She's suing a bunch of tabloids from overseas in the hopes of getting some cash, so that's probably where she got this half-baked idea.

I already published these pictures of Britney at Kevin's Pure video shoot, but the only other recent pictures are blurry ones of Britney driving around talking on her cell phone, which seem too lame to post.

High Res photos of Lindsay Lohan clutching her breasts in GQ


As if Lindsay needs more publicity, she now graces the cover of the August issue of GQ and appears in a porny spread inside. I read the part of the article about her that's viewable in these images, and it seems like more of the same crap about Lindsay and her life in the tabloids. The author probably comes to the conclusion that she's a smart businesswoman who's destined to go places.

The thing that gets me is that the quotes and this spread look like Playboy. You know how Playboy and Penthouse always make up crap for the models to say, like how they think their best friend is hot or how they arranged a threesome with their boyfriend? It's like these quotes are made up by GQ to make the over-the-top pictures seem even more slutty. Maybe that's how GQ always does it, though.

This week Lindsay is bedding a guy who runs a suggestively-named chain of taco joints, and is changing her bikini three times a day. As she says in the GQ article "really - who cares?"

In one of the quotes she insists her breasts are real: "I like my body and my breasts. And no, they're not fake." She could skirt the question or admit to surgery she's obviously had, but instead she wants to volunteer lies. We don't care, Lindsay, you're already damaged goods so a little boob job isn't going to harm your image.

National Enquirer's 50 Best and Worst Beach Bodies


I really enjoy reading these gossip rags now that I'm in the states for my vacation.

Here's one of my guilty pleasures, The National Enquirer. Reader Millie says it's one of the trashier rags, but maybe that's why I like it so much! I also totally believe a lot of what they write, and my guillibitiy is undoubtedly a big factor in my willingness to reprint most of the crap I read about celebrities.

Here's a recap of the pictures, below. They're spot on with most of them, except for Mimi. They use an old fat picture of Mariah Carey and say she's got one of the best beach bodies. Maybe she's better looking now, but they didn't even bother to photoshop it to make her look thinner. Also, Pierce Brosnan's wife might be heavy, but she's an attractive woman otherwise and it seems kind of cruel to use a picture from the back. Kudos to Brosnan for defending his wife and not trading her in for a younger model.

Best Beach Bodies, Women:
Beyonce Knowles, 24
Elizabeth Hurley. 41
Jessica Alba, 25
Mariah Carey, 36
Jennifer Aniston, 37
Lisa Rinna, 43

Chelsea Clinton, 26
Queen Latifah, 36
Star Jones, 44
Goldie Hawn, 60

Best Beach Bodies, Men:
LL Cool J, 38
Brad Pitt, 42
Matthew McConaughey, 36 (not so much anymore)

I'll be leaving the US next Tuesday and will be away from the computer for nearly a week I'm sorry to say. I'll make an official announcement and will do my best to fill in the gaps while I'm gone but things may be quiet around here if I don't find a guest writer. (If you'd like to write for the blog - please e-mail me at info [at] celebitchy.com. You don't need a lot of technical knowledge. It would help if you're familiar with Movable Type, although it's easy and I can teach you.) I'm going to the French countryside, but since I already live in Europe I can't get all pretentious about it.

Here are the pictures. I just photographed the magazine and realize they're not the best quality.

Britney on the cover of Harper's Bazaar


Britney was set to do a pregnant semi-nude Harper's Bazaar spread just like Demi Moore, but she pulled it. Someone sent the airbrushed pictures to BritneySpy.com, and now they're all over. Why did Britney pull the pictures? She probably was advised against it by her "christian life coach," who is also said to be behind Britney and Kevin's recent reconciliation.

Now that I'm in the states I have the mixed blessing of being able to read the tabloids, and will report on Us Weekly's glowing coverage of Kevin and Britney's reunion shortly.

In the mean time, here are Britney's Harper's Bazaar photos. They're trashy, but that's just how she comes off anyway. Add a shag rug and pose her nude and you just magnify that quality. Also, Sean Preston is cute and all, but doesn't he have any other expression? He always seems to look the same. Maybe that's how he copes.

Thanks to Just Jared for these photos.

Outtakes from K-Fed's Item magazine shoot - 18 photos

Everyone thought it was amazing how gorgeous a cleaned-up K-Fed looked when the pictures from his Item Magazine spread came out. He kind of looked like a used car salesman to me. (If you still think he's cute, just check out these pictures of him lounging around the pool with his gut hanging out during his PR vacation with Britney.)

K-Fed is the new face of the Blue Marlin Clothing Company's Five Star Vintage Clothing Line. Guess they don't mind having their brand associated with a guy whose only claim to fame is fathering lots of children and starring in the cringe-worthy "Chaotic".

Christina Aguilera has made another dig at Britney's husband, K-Fed, saying that her husband is reliable and "isn't trying to put out an album" or be in the spotlight:

"I'm in the happiest place I've ever been. Jordy [my husband] is a rock. It's hard to find a man in this world that can take a woman in the spotlight. He just wants to be my hubby and do what he needs to do in his career. He's not trying to be in the spotlight. He's not trying to put out an album."

Aguilera felt the need to bring everyone's attention to the fact that Britney was not at the MTV Music Awards this year. She said something about wanting to chat with her, but she was really highlighting how hot she still is, while Britney has let herself go and is focusing on her role as a neglectful mother. Aguilera called Britney's wedding to K-Fed two years ago "pathetic" at the time, and she was unfortunately right.

Some of these pictures of K-Fed's Item Magazine shoot you've seen before, but many are new. If K-Fed can clean up, maybe Britney can, too.

Nicole Richie's VF shoot retouched to add weight


Liz Smith mentions in her column in the NY Post today that the photos that accompany Nicole Richie's interview in Vanity Fair were retouched to make her look healthy:

IT IS impossible not to be rather moved, and profoundly disturbed, by the Nicole Richie profile in the June Vanity Fair, in which Nicole discusses her weight issues with writer Leslie Bennetts. However, what is more disturbing is the photo layout. Here is a young woman who, when caught by the candid camera, looks as if she needs to be hauled away and force-fed. But in VF, she is posed and angled and retouched . . . to appear almost normal - a physical ideal for susceptible young (and not-so-young) women. Ick! And of course, how bizarre that Richie became a "star" as soon as her weight dropped to scary skinny. She is famous for being thin. It is truly a new world.

Nicole Richie became famous as soon as she started showing up for tons of events, and that just happened to coincide with her weight loss, probably because she had higher self esteem. While the ideal for slenderness in Hollywood is out of bounds and harmful to young women, I don't think that Richie's stardom can be attributed to her stick thin appearance. It is obviously unhealthy and not a good role model for anyone of course.

You can see the retouching in the photos below. In a picture of RIchie wearing underwear and kissing herself in the mirror, her butt looks a little too round to be real. Her face also looks less deathly.

The red string bracelet that Richie wears on her right wrist may not be a sign of anorexic pride that it can also stand for. (Some images are shown flipped, and the bracelet is really on her right hand.) It is from Kitson and is adorned with a gold hamsa, a protective jewish symbol. It's just, uh, a coincidence that anorexics also wear red string bracelets on their right wrists while Kabbalah followers wear them on their left wrists.

Richie admits in her Vanity Fair interview that she's too thin and that she's getting help from a doctor and a nutritionist.

Gisele Bundchen in Italian GQ and for Ebele


Gisele Bundchen appears in April's Italian edition of GQ magazine. She also is shooting ads for watch maker Ebele. Her career is in full force, with an upcoming appearance in the film The Devil Wears Prada and a new role in a film with David Beckham and Gerard Depardieu:

Newly released photographs of the catwalk queen shooting a promotion for luxury watch brand Ebel show she has lost none of her sultry appeal. In one of the pictures the 25-year-old, who was named by Forbes magazine as the most successful model of all time, shows off her enviable curves by posing in a sizzling black bikini.

And it would appear billboards and magazine pages aren't the only places fans can expect to see the model. Having recently wrapped up an appearance opposite Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada, the blonde bombshell has now signed on to play one of the leading roles in Asterix At The Olympic Games. Working on the new adventure will see the South American starring alongside England football captain David Beckham and legendary French actor Gerard Depardieu.

Why Celebritiy Marriages are Doomed


Cindy Adams has the highlights of an upcoming Glamour magazine article she wrote that unveils the reasons behind most celebrity breakups. They're typical but interesting:

  • The "X" factor. As in excess. Too much of everything. Twenty mil a movie, plus points plus a hunk of the marketing, overseas rights, video rights, DVDs, Oscar goody bags, etc.

  • Second "X" factor: sex. Too many gorgeous bodies. A preacher says, "Do you take this woman?" whereupon Brad Pitt tells Jennifer Aniston, "On second thought, I'll take that one."

  • On a set, they're serviced like racing cars. At home, tough for any spouse to compete with wardrobe, makeup person, hairdresser, assistant, script girl, gopher, director.

  • Playing assassins and action heros, living, breathing and working in drama and fantasy, they need that same breakneck excitement in their personal lives.

  • The ego factor. When one's career eclipses the other, you're talking "Danger - TNT."
  • Adams says that New York-based celebrity couples fare better, and cites examples like Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker, and Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins. Based on some of Parker's recent statements, we're not so sure.

    In "The Evolution of Desire: Strategies of Human Mating" evolutionary psychologist Richard Buss outlines the reasons why people stray: men need to spread their seed and woman want a well-off man to provide for them. These are prototypical gender-based strategies that people use to increase their chances of passing on their genes to offspring.

    Jennifer Aniston had yet to bear biological children for Brad Pitt after four years of marriage so he moved on. According to anthropologists, four years is the average amount of time that a childless relationship lasts.

    When looked at from an evolutionary perspective, it's not surprising that Hollywood marriages don't last. There's a lot of temptation around and not much of a stigma attached to divorce.

    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:

    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.

    Here are pictures from the May issue of GQ. [via]

    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.

    Kate Moss to write tell-all autobiography of her cocaine abuse


    Virgin mogul Richard Branson has paid Kate Moss a £1million advance to write an autobiography about her ordeal with cocaine abuse. Moss is said to have confided in Branson during her struggle to get off drugs last year:

    The supermodel sought sanctuary on the Virgin tycoon's Caribbean isle. Necker, after her spell in rehab.

    She had long chats with Branson, who has known Kate since she was 15 and signed to his Storm agency.

    Kate was dropped by a host of labels following damning footage of her cocaine abuse last September. She spent a month in rehab in Arizona.

    Branson said: "The story coming out could have saved her from a far worse situation"...

    Branson has persuaded her to sign a £1million autobiography contract to confess all about her cocaine abuse
    - published by Virgin Books.

    Kate's career had some setbacks, but quickly recovered after the video of her doing cocaine came out last year. Now she's set to cash in big time with a revealing autobiography.

    Kate Moss has also forfeited a lawsuit against Britian's Channel Five for a 2004 documentary, "The Truth about Kate Moss," that claimed that she did cocaine. In order to proceed with the lawsuit, Kate would have had to sign a statement that she didn't do cocaine. Instead of signing the statement, for which there is plenty of proof otherwise, she gave up persuing the lawsuit.

    Here is Kate out with a male friend in London on Thursday. We also have pictures of her April appearance in Harper's Bazaar.

    Puperazzi alert: dogs of the rich and famous.

    Jennifer Love Hewitt on the cover of Hollywood Dog
    New magazine, Hollywood Dog, covers the lifestyles of dogs owned by celebrities. It was only a matter of time:
    The magazine opens with puperazzi shots of bicoastal celebrities and their canines.

    Edie Falco of "The Sopranos" crouches next to her mutt. Adrien Brody is caught leaving the Golden Globes Silver Spoon Buffet in Beverly Hills with his Chihuahua. A makeup artist works on Carmen Electra's eyes while the ex-"Baywatch" star cuddles her dog Daisy. Eva "Desperate Housewives" Longoria and her poodle stand beside trash cans outside their Hollywood home....

    Among the headlines: "My Dog Has PMS." Actress Jennifer Love Hewitt and her relationship with Charlie--not Sheen, but her King Charles Cavalier Spaniel--are profiled.

    Then there's the wedding photo spread "Bow Vows," featuring assorted Chihuahuas dressed to the nines. One wears a wedding dress that sells for a mere $30, but then there is the $110 necklace and the $350 wedding cake from Three Dog Bakery.

    18 year-old British singer Josh Stone is voted the best celebrity dog owner, while Paris Hilton is questioned for replacing her poor Chihuahua.

    Plenty of ads for upscale dog goods are featured in the new magazine. Celebrities do a good job at making the rest of us feel inaquate. Now our pets are uglier with cheaper accessories too!

    Jennifer Love Hewitt is on the cover of the inaugural issue of Hollywood Dog with her Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Charlie. Pictures [via]
