The story that Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn broke up may not be true. Jen might be hanging out with her famous gal pals, and she just got a new dog and all, but she was spotted out with Vince this Tuesday night. They both look miserable, though, that's something:
The news came out at the end of July that these two broke up and has only gradually picked up steam. Maybe they're just not spending much time together or have a rocky relationship. It's certainly suspect that they never went public with it.
Thanks to KevinFFan at JJB for finding this.

The model Kid Rock was dating right before he reconciled with Pamela Anderson is heartbroken by how quickly he moved on - and how coldly he dumped her. Jill Marie Gulseth, 22, tells In Touch that Kid Rock broke up with her unexpectedly via text message:
Gulseth tells In Touch magazine, "To be broken up with in a text was just so shocking and upsetting. I cried a lot to friends and family."
The 22-year-old beauty adds, "It's not easy seeing it in the news every day. I mean, I was just with him at his house a few weeks ago. When we were together, we never spoke about Pam. I honestly wasn't focused on his history - I was focused on our future."
The future's kind of hazy with Kid Rock, and this naive chick is much better off without him.
It seems to be kind of popular among rock stars to dump their girlfriends via SMS. Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine told Jessica Simpson he was "really busy" and "needed space" in a text message. The poor girl never saw him again.

The Post Chronicle is running a story that Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn have split up. They're repeating an article from The Bosh that originally ran on July 25, so I don't know why it's taken so long for it to get picked up.
Australia's New Weekly also carries the story:
While stories of trouble in the pair’s relationship are widespread, doubt remains over who is the driving force behind the split. One source alleges that Vince is pulling the plug, while another claims it’s really Jennifer, 37, who wants out.
A report published in the US suggests that Vince, 36, is being pressured by his mum Sharon to end the romance. Sharon reportedly believes Jen’s on the rebound from Brad and doesn’t truly love her son.
“[Sharon] told him that if he married Jen, he’d be in for a world of heartbreak,” says a source. “Sharon said they needed to take a break so Jen could find closure with Brad.”
After listening to Sharon’s advice, Vince reportedly called off their secret nuptials. “He told Jen they need to take a breather,” the source adds.
But pals of the former Friends star say it’s Jennifer who’s calling it off after becoming fed up with Vince’s party-hard lifestyle. During a recent holiday in Mexico, the couple clashed over the actor’s boorish behaviour.
“She says he acted like a jerk, staying up all night with his friends, drinking and smoking,” one of Jen’s mates reveals. “It dawned on her that this isn’t the kind of man she wants to marry.
“The fact is, she dumped Vince.”
They never seemed like a real couple anyway because Vince was always calling Jen his "pal" and refusing to acknowledge their relationship. They also famously refused to pose for pictures together, even when promoting their film "The Break Up."
Aniston was recently spotted out without Vince looking drunk and miserable, making this story seem more likely.
Whether it's a real-life break-up for this pair or not, only time will tell. They're so under the radar that it's possible that they've been broken up for a while.
Pictures from Hot Momma Drama.
Former X-Files star Gillian Anderson, 37, left her second husband, documentary filmmaker Julian Ozanne, 42, after just 16 months. They announced their split at the end of April.
Anderson is pregnant now with her second child and is dating a new guy, but she's visibly pregnant, and looks like she's about five months along. That means that either she got pregnant by her estranged husband and will be raising his baby with another guy (which is similar to what Heidi Klum did with Seal) or that she was pregnant by her boyfriend and that could be the reason she split up with her husband:
The actress, 37, has told friends she is expecting a baby following her separation from documentary-maker Julian Ozanne, her second husband...
Miss Anderson is now reported to be dating wheelclamping firm director Mark Griffiths. The 34-year-old businessman, who operates his lucrative private clamping company from an industrial estate in North London, was previously linked with former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell.
Last month Mr Griffiths, who used to live close to Miss Anderson's marital home in Notting Hill, West London, moved into her new £3million home in nearby Holland Park.
The couple are also said to have enjoyed a holiday to California with Piper, Miss Anderson's daughter by her first husband, Canadian television art director Clyde Klotz. The actress's marriage to Mr Ozanne broke down shortly after The Mail on Sunday revealed she had a bizarre alcohol-fuelled outburst on a flight in January this year...
When The Mail on Sunday asked Mr Ozanne if his former wife was pregnant he declined to comment.
We speculated back in April that Anderson's relationship with her second husband was probably on the rocks because she seemed to be drinking too much. She suffered from drunken air rage (although one can hardly blame her, with the stress of flying and all) and looked visibly drunk in these candids of her out with her then-husband.
Hopefully she's laying off the sauce now that's she's pregnant and maybe she'll find happiness with her latest beau. It's not too promising that he runs a "wheel-clamping" business, though. Who doesn't hate those guys?
Here are pictures of Anderson from March out with her husband. She is seen at the Belle Epoque Dinner on 3/16 and in some candids looking visibly soused. Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton are also shown. The first set of pictures you may have seen before, but the second set are new to me. [via]
Thanks to HotMommaDrama for reporting this first.
Carmen Electra and Dave Navarro have been rumored to be on the outs since early March. They did PR damage control at the time, but they must not have done enough to save their relationship It is surprising that it took them so long to acknowledge it. Sources say that Carmen is never around Dave, and is travelling frequently without telling him where she'll be or when she'll be home. Their rep confirms the breakup:
Dave is said to be living with a new girlfriend he's been seeing for five months, socialite Sarah Howard. She's also a brunette and bears a slight resemblance to Carmen.
The MTV reality show now has a better record than The Bachelor and Bachelorette at breaking up couples. It seems starring in a reality series is the kiss of death for a relationship.

It turns out that gig with HGTV may not work out for Star Jones, because they deny having any plans to hire her, and so do Fox News and CNN, two other networks she claimed to be in talks with. Now that Star is talk show poison, her husband, Al Reynolds, seems to have decided there's no reason to continue his sham marriage. He was spotted at the NY office of a high profile divorce attorney:
Mr. Lotwin is one of the most prominent divorce attorney's in New York. He worked on the high-profile divorces of Howard Stern, Donald Trump, Geraldo Rivera and Diana Ross.
After remaining upstairs for nearly two hours, Al tried to quietly sneak out of the building. But before he could leave, the witness tells MediaTakeOut.com, "I walked up to him and said 'Al, is that you', and Al ran out of the building - almost knocking over a pregnant woman."
For Star Jones, this news couldn't come at a worse time. Ever since she was fired from the popular morning show The View, the daytime diva has been having trouble finding a new job. According to one insider, Star's publicists have been telling everyone that would listen that she has a job offer from HGTV and that she's interviewing with FOX News and CNN. But all three networks have vehemently denied having any plans that include the former lawyer. In fact, one representative for FOX News told MediaTakeOut.com that the network "has no interest in working with Star."
Once big gay Al divorces her, Star could channel her anger and become a homophobic conservative. That might help her land a gig on FOX. She could spread her unique brand of vile across the airways. Hatred is a smidgeon more believable coming from a minority. That's how Michelle Malkin got famous.
When doing my three minutes worth of research for this post, I came across the website for Star Jones and Al Reynold's wedding, dated Fall, 2004. They commit a couple cardinal sins of web design with a stupid Flash entry page and making people enter their e-mail address to access content (I entered "biggayal@hotmail.com" This worked fine).
Regardless it's clear they protest too much. I couldn't read through all the glurge about their relationship because it kind of made me sick to my stomach. Here are some choice quotes made hysterical by this latest news:
We know that our love will be sustained through faith in the promises of Christ and the prayers and support of friends and family.
God may be powerful and all, but He can't make a gay person straight, no matter how much they hype their wedding with a formerly obese talk show host.

It must be very stressful to be an out of work celebrity who has to resort to hosting second rate reality shows on little-known cable networks. I saw these photos of Shannen Doherty promoting her new show on Oxygen in which she helps couples split up or something, and thought, "OMG, how old is she?" Doherty is 35, but looks 45. She's just aged terribly. Of course she looks good in the airbrushed promo photos for the series.
Doherty held a press conference to announce her new show, and got all upset when asked about her reputation:
"I'm not going to lie to you; it hurts a lot to read the stuff I read about myself, and it hurts me and it hurts my mom a lot," said Doherty, who choked back tears as she looked at her mother, who was nearby. Doherty acknowledged she had only herself to blame for much of what had been written about her, but she later asked reporters to give her another chance.
"I hate to use the word 'unfair' because, again, I have to stand up and say it wasn't just the press," she said. "I played a huge part, a huge part, and everybody has a job. And if I'm creating some of the drama, then you guys have a job to report it.
"But where I start to say 'OK, now we're getting out of hand' is when nobody lets it die," she said. "Nobody says, 'You know what? She was young. Give her a break.' Give me a chance to mess up again. Stop writing about stuff that happened 10 years ago. Stop bringing up every bad thing in my life. And give me another chance to mess up. If I mess up again, then write about it. But just let me breathe and let my parents breathe. Let them pick up the paper and it says one nice thing about me."
You got it, Shannen. We are moving on to the fact that you said you have been on only one date in the last 18 months and have reached a time in your life when you can declare: "I don't need a man to make me happy."
Looking fit in a strapless black top and white slacks and refreshingly her age (read: no Botox), Doherty 'fessed up about something else regarding her show. She is not selling herself as an authority on relationships.
"I think an expert doesn't mess up nearly as many times as I have," she said. "I think that I'm good with getting over relationships. I'm good with dealing with the guilt, the tears and the mourning and the grief because God knows I've done it enough."
That's too bad that Doherty hasn't dated in so long and maybe this show will help her hook up with a new guy. She doesn't look "refreshingly her age," though. She looks 7-10 years older. Am I right or am I just accustomed to the Botoxed plastic look?

Matthew McConaughey has been letting himself go since his split with Penelope Cruz. He was photographed with a bit of a beer belly at a party he threw on the 4th of July:
The normally ripped star showed off his expanding beer belly during an Independence Day party with his pals.
He held the bash at his Malibu mansion.
NATALIE PORTMAN and JAKE GYLLENHAAL – who are rumoured to be more than just friends – were among the guests to see Matt’s new look. But I have to say he carries the Homer Simpson look well . . .
Yeah, Matt still looks hot with a few extra pounds. He looks like he needs to suck his stomach in. He can whip himself back into stinky shape if he needs to. A few laps around the trailer park should do it.
Update: Matt doesn't look quite as fat when he's taking a jog on the beach. (inset picture via People Magazine)
Here's his ex, Penelope Cruz, out with a friend in Beverly Hills on 6/28. You don't see a lot of paparrazi pictures of her and she doesn't look like she minds being photographed. [via]
Britney Spears' gorgeous bodyguard and sometimes manny, 28 year-old Naval Academy graduate Perry Taylor, has been removed from his close position with the troubled pop star and is now working security detail on a daily as-needed basis. He was helpful, attractive, and friendly, and K-Fed is said to have asked Britney to fire him after he heard about how Perry was changing Sean Preston's diapers and serving as Britney's unofficial nanny:
Obviously K-Fed is still feeding his friends quotes to give to the rags, because the source was careful to say that he wasn't jealous or anything. Oh of course not. We've never seen Kevin wearing a Baby Bjorn, but Perry donned the baby carrier with pride and a cute button smile.
People were unsure about Perry's identity at first, initially confusing him with Britney's record producer, J.R. Rotem, with whom he bears a resemblance. Perry's identity soon came out, though, and he became an Internet and press phenomenon.
Perry was touted as the reason behind Britney's cleaned-up appearance in the absence of K-Fed, and people speculated that she was having an affair. Perry's mom put those rumors to rest by telling the press that her son had a hot live-in girlfriend.
Everyone from the NY Times to U.S. News and World report discussed the merits of male nannys, or the "manny." We couldn't get enough of Perry.
Then, last week, Britney was seen out alone and with new jet-black hair after her "Dateline" debacle. It seemed the rumors of Kevin's dissatisfaction with being upstaged by the help were true, and that Britney had obeyed her do-nothing husband and got rid of the best thing that happened to her since the birth of her baby.
We haven't seen the last of Perry Taylor, though. We hope that Angelina is watching this young guy's rise to fame, and will hire him to soften up the image of her security force while lending an extra set of hands to care for Shiloh and Zahara.
Thanks to Kylie on MySpace for reminding me about Perry.
Here are pictures of helpful Perry during his employment with Britney. He's been seen buying flowers for Britney, and he even holds the car door open for her.
SocialRank claims to have an exclusive that Jay-Z and Beyonce are calling off their relationship due to too much time apart and too many conflicts. There was a rumor last month that they were getting married after Jay-Z lost weight on a diet supervised by Beyonce, but that was influenced by Beyonce's own success in the dieting department and didn't seem like a strong enough indication that they were preparing for a wedding:
Jay-Z has been completely immersed with his Island Def Jam work for the last couple of months, while spending all his free time at the offices or games of New Jersey Nets. Beyonce meanwhile went to Cannes and to the Walk of Fame Induction ceremony all by herself, feeling lonely and unsupported. “Jay is obsessed with keeping basketball game scores” another very close source to the couple is saying. “Beyonce is looking to the future. Her sister Solange already has a baby. Her own parents have an amazing, fulfilling relationship and she not only wants a steady career, she wants to have tight family circle around her as well”.
The Page Six publicized basketball game fight wasn’t a first blow-out the couple has experienced lately. Private fights, ignored telephone calls, screaming arguments have been the theme of the couple’s last couple of months. “It has simply become too much”, a source confides. “Beyonce realized that two of them just might be incompatible and their relationship is really a lie they both were trying to believe in”. They came together to LA Reid’s birthday bash last week and put on the “happy couple” show. But inside out source observes. “Beyonce simply feels empty. She wants to spend this important Dreamgirls year for her with someone who understands her and relates to her a lot more”.
It sounds like they're both too busy to spend time together, and that Jay-Z is too focused on sports and partying to settle down. That is really common and I have dated guys like that. As much as you love them, you have to move on to someone who has the same goals in life and is ready for a long term commitment.
Beyonce was said to be jealous of Jay-Z's very close working relationship with hot singer Rhianna, but it doesn't seem like Jay-Z and Rhianna were having more than a flirtatious friendship.
There is only a single source for this news now, so until it's confirmed and reported all over we aren't sure it's true. Even if it's spot-on, it will probably be a while before the breakup is acknowledged.
Here are Beyonce and Jay-Z taking care not to be photographed together as they leave a NY hotel on 6/12, and some candids of Beyonce in NY alone on 6/15. [via]
Nick Lachey hooked up with MTV VJ and former fling Vanessa Minnillo in Atlantic City after meeting up with her at a club on Sunday night. They left together and things must have heated up quickly for the pair, because they were then spotted in Mexico together according to PerezHilton:
Not only did they get freaky at the Borgota Hotel this weekend but they also just took a romantic getaway together to an exclusive resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
It is difficult to tell whether they were in Mexico first and planned to meet up at the club, or if they met in Atlantic City and promptly jetted off to the vacation spot. Either way, it looks like they're back together and that this means curtains for Nick's relationship with stylist Kim Kardashian.
Kardashian, who was linked to Nick after a romantic movie date on May 24th, has been seen out shopping and attending events with Paris Hilton. Her friendship with the flightly self-centered heiress couldn't have helped her relationship with Lachey, whose friends thought Kardshian's status as an outsider from the usual Hollywood circle was part of what made her attractive to Lachey. Kardashian's gorgeous looks couldn't have hurt, either.
This is also bad news for poor Jessica Simpson. She seems to have come to terms with the fact that it's over between her and Nick, because she may have approved of his relationship with Kardashian. Jessica reportedly sent her best friend and ex-assistant Cacee Cobb to check out Kardashian for her, and Cacee is said to have called Kim "nice." Nick and Jessica's divorce may be final on June 17th, and it looks like Nick is moving on with style.
Here is Lachey promoting his album at Lucky Strike lanes in Chicago on June 12th and at the Borgata Hotel Casino fight weekend after party on June 11th. He is shown with Tyson Beckford. The poor quality inset images are of Minnillo and Lachey in Cabo San Lucas.
The PopBitch e-mail newsletter reports this week that Paris Hilton got fingered at a club by a strange guy and acted like nothing was happening:
That's possible, but it sounds like a nasty rumor someone just made up.
New NFL quarterback Matt Leiner, Paris' latest fling, seems to have taken his teammates advice to stay away from her as we reported last week. Ted Casablancas reports that Leinart has a new girlfriend in Arizona, where he's training with the Arizona Cardinals:
"The current girlfriend is just to show that Matt wasn't serious about Paris. He's dating around, playing the field," reported my pigskin snitch.
Paris must not care mutch. She was photographed with 50 Cent's hand on her boob at a party in Cannes this week. That makes it seem more likely that she was fingered by a random guy at a club.
As Jossip points out, Lindsay Lohan isn't the only one with a firecrotch. Paris was photographed in her "modeling days" wearing flame-encrusted panties, as shown above.
Here she is coming back from Cannes. [via]
Yesterday everyone pointed out that Aniston and Vaughn worked hard to keep their distance from each other at the premiere of their new romantic comedy, "The Break Up." The title of the film may be doubly ironic for Aniston, because Star Magazine is reporting that Vaughn told Aniston he needed time off. That means it's over:
Aniston also backtracked from earlier quotes that she wanted a family, saying she wanted one, uh, eventually. Oops.
“That was a misquote, by the way,” Jen explained. “Well only because I'm not. I'm a realist. I know you can't get a family in a year. I just sort of meant you know, eventually. That's something I would love for my future. But I didn't mean like tomorrow.”
Aniston doesn't want a family right away because Vaughn isn't into it - or her - at all.
It's not all bad news for Aniston. Judging by her newfound look and smiling face at the premiere of "The Break Up," it seems like being single again agrees with her. Vaughn isn't fairing as well, and seems to be suffering from some kind of liver ailment.

The NY Post is reporting that DJ AM and Nicole Richie broke up for the second time because Richie didn't gain weight and stop partying as AM requested:
This was said to be the reason they broke up the first time, so it's not surprising. Nicole Richie knew that she needed to gain some weight to save her relationship, and she still couldn't do it. That reveals how much of a problem she has. She needs to check herself into a clinic. If she gained 20 pounds she would look so much better, and she needs to do it for her health.
Sky News quotes Richie's dad as saying that she's planning a wedding that he will be more than happy to pay for. He must not have heard the breakup news:
He broke the good news to the Daily Mirror before he took to the stage at the Prince's Trust concert in London on the weekend.
Lionel, who's Nicole's adoptive father, said: "I told her: 'Honey, you do what you want and just send me the bill.
"I'm really happy that it's working out for her," said the 56-year-old former Commodores star.
Richie will have to have a talk with her kind dad. Here she is shopping for shoes at Barneys on 5/19. Does she look healthy to you?

I didn't pay much attention to Heather Mills in the past, and my opinion of her was positive and based on the fact that she's an animal activist and an amputee who just seems to shrug off her disability. Now that she's getting a divorce from Paul McCartney, all these stories of her opportunism have come out. Of course Mills and McCartney have denied that she married him for his money, and maybe that's true. That doesn't mean you have to like her, though.
The PopBitch newsletter posted this link to the official "Facts" on Heather's website, and she sounds so reactionary and full of herself that I can't help but come away with a negative opinion of her. Maybe she just has a terribly aggressive publicist, but why would she justify personal attacks with such vehement denials? Here's just one of the Fact vs. Fiction reports on her website, which are highlighted on the page in ugly red and green:
FACT: "Contrary to spiteful reports in the British press, Heather’s interview with Paul Newman on CNN’s “Larry King Live” was very well received, particularly by Paul Newman himself. His publicist of over 40 yrs, Warren Cowan wrote the following day: “Wonderful Job! I cannot tell you how many people have raved to me about your interview with Paul (Newman). He was delighted with it. So was I. The fact that the hour flew by so quickly is a testament to your interviewing skills. Take a bow, Heather, A Deep One”….
Wendy Whitworth (Executive Vice President of CNN & Senior Executive Producer of Larry King Live): "Heather came to the desk prepared for the spotlight. She was meticulous in her research and thorough in her presentation. Once again, Heather demonstrated her abilities with her well-known poise and intelligence"
Larry King: "Heather was a smart, charming and gracious guest host. She was very well prepared. I had no doubt! I would love for her to be my resident host "
Paul Newman: "She seduces you into feeling stylishly confident.""
It goes on to rebut many other "fictions" about Mills in a similar snotty, over-the-top tone. Even if Mills isn't writing that crap herself, she would surely have to approve it. WTF?
McCartney's children, including fashion designer Stella McCartney, are said to dislike Mills and go out of their way to avoid her.
An editorial in Britian's Telegraph lays out the case for disliking Mills:
Although it is hardly unusual for children to be enthusiastic about a stepmother, the silence from Paul McCartney's three children from his first marriage has been deafening. Fashion designer Stella, in particular, has done little to hide her disapproval of Heather. At the Live8 concert last year, she very publicly moved away from Heather, not wanting to talk to her father in his wife's presence and also ensuring there were no happy-family photo opportunities.
Few, it seems, have a good word to say for her. Geoff Baker, Paul McCartney's long-standing press officer, was dismissed last year, reportedly at Heather's instigation after falling out with her. At the time, Baker would say nothing on the subject, but his next move spoke volumes. He took a job as an editor of a golfing magazine and chose for the cover of his first issue a nude Heather McCartney lookalike with a golf ball resting on her cleavage.
Unfortunately Heather Mills is said to now require a wheelchair to get around as she recovers from an amputation surgery and copes with the stress from the dissolution of her marriage. That's too bad, but it doesn't mean she deserves our pity or our admiration.
She is due to put out a book next month, called "Life Balance," in which she refutes claims that she married McCartney for his wealth.
In her upcoming book she says that being called a golddigger was "worse than losing my leg." She has also cancelled a launch party for the book. Given the circumstances that's probably a good idea.
Friends say that the couple broke up after four years partly because Heather hated the adoration McCartney received, and refused to join him on tour. She was also said to have criticized McCartney's style, and to have attempted to makeover his image.
If she's such a great person she wouldn't work so hard to tell everyone about it.

A while ago we read through the hilarious letters sent into the Duluth, GA police department where runaway bride Jennifer Willbanks told her ridiculous tale about being kidnapped and forced to perform sex acts with a fictional Latino couple.
Many people suggested that Willbanks suffered from hyperthyroidism, also known as Graves Disease, which causes sufferers' eyes to pop out of their head, and can cause anxiety and frantic behavior. Willbanks also has what's known as a goiter, or an enlargement of the thyroid gland, which you can see by looking at her neck in the picture above.
Willbanks has finally been dumped by her dupe of a fiance, John Mason, over a year after the famous incident. Of course she should have been kicked to the curb a while ago:
To the amazement of many, fiancé John Mason quickly took her back, with the couple even moving into a large new home in an Atlanta suburb and talking about taking a second run at marriage.
But in early May Mason's camp let it be known that any nuptials were off – and suddenly the woman who couldn’t take "I do" for an answer seems to be having a problem with "I don't."
"I'm not confirming or denying the breakup," Wilbanks, 33, told PEOPLE May 14. "John and I have some things to work out."
But to Mason's family and friends there is no doubt that this time the split is for good. "I think John realized there were some fundamental differences in their personalities that he wasn't going to be able to deal with," a friend says of Mason, 33, who runs his family's Duluth medical-care business.
Whatever the cause of the breakup, Mason's family voiced relief at the turn of events. "We're just glad there's a final resolution," John’s father, Claude, who was to have been his son's best man, told PEOPLE.
People says that Willbanks has performed the 120 hours of community service she was assigned for causing the fake kidnapping scare, and has paid back $15,000 of the cost the local police incurred for the search.
What we'd really like to know is if she ever saw an endocrinologist.

I never believed these two were a couple, because there was only one report of them going out to dinner and kissing that got repeated a couple weeks after it first came out. Other than that there wasn't much evidence and no pictures, although Spade did defend Locklear to the press by saying that "She's still nursing the knife wound in her back" [from Denise Richards] He also did a dumb skit on his show about it, using paper dolls to pretend that Richards apologized for saying he dated Locklear before she split up with her estranged husband, Richie Sambora (video below.)
MSNBC's "The Scoop" is reporting the relationship between Spade and Locklear is over:
“Heather isn’t in a rush to get into another serious relationship,” a “pal” told the mag. Her spokeswoman didn’t respond to The Scoop’s request for comment.
Locklear's ex, Richie Sambora, is still dating his neighbor Denise Richards, despite reports that the two have broken up. Richard's rep confirmed that they're still together and said that Sambora's recent comment at a Bon Jovi gig in Germany, in which he claimed to be "Single and ready to party" was just part of his rock-star personae.
Now Richards is flying to Europe to join Sambora while he's on tour.
Richards' representative hit out at reports the couple have broken-up insisting, "Denise and Richie are still together." A source tells Us Weekly the actress will leave her two young children, Sam, two, and Lola, 11 months, with her parents while she goes on the trip.
Bon Jovi have a break after their show in Dublin and the couple will reportedly spend a romantic weekend together in Europe. Richards recently reached an agreement with estranged husband Charlie Sheen, extending her temporary restraining order against the actor.
That sounds kind of desperate and we've joined team Sheen in the Richards/Sheen divorce battle. With the latest news that Richards is starting her own children's clothing line to directly compete with her husband's business venture, she's clearly out to get him. Plus, whose rep ever confirms a rebound relationship? That's just lame.
As for Sambora and Locklear, we're not sure who to root for because it doesn't seem like anyone is at fault. Denise Richards can take the blame there as well.
Here's Spade doing his dumb skit in which he pretends to talk to Denise Richards, using paper dolls to act it out:
It is expected that Paul McCartney, 63, will announce that he and his wife of nearly four years, Heather Mills, 38, are separating:
In recent months the couple's always stormy four-year marriage has been punctuated by ever more explosive rows.
They were due to have crisis talks at the weekend. But Macca, 63, decided he could not face another emotionally draining bust-up.
He told one friend: "We really can't go on like this. It's not fair on either of us. Enough is enough."
A source disclosed: "Paul hasn't come to this decision lightly, but felt things couldn't carry on as they were.
"He and Heather were getting on so badly it became impossible for them to sleep under the same roof.
"Paul is desperately hoping some time apart will give them the space to work out whether they want the relationship to continue.
"It's terribly sad for them. We're very concerned it's all over. But nobody has entirely lost hope."
Sir Paul, who insists the couple can rekindle their love, is expected to tell close family and friends of his bombshell decision today.
Mills received surgery on her amputated leg three weeks ago, and has been staying at her East Sussex home with her sister as she recovers.
McCartney has been staying in another of his homes just 55 miles away, but has avoided his wife. The couple's two year-old daughter has been chauffered back and forth between their two homes.
That's sad news but maybe they'll be able to reconcile for the sake of their daughter.
Update: McCartney and Mills have released a statement announcing the split. It's pretty weak that they blame the press for their problems, though:
"Our parting is amicable and both of us still care about each other very much but have found it increasingly difficult to maintain a normal relationship with constant intrusion into our private lives, and we have actively tried to protect the privacy of our child," the statement continued.
"Separation for any couple is difficult enough, but to have to go through this so publicly, especially with a small daughter, is immensely stressful. We hope, for the sake of our baby daughter, that we will be given some space and time to get through this difficult period."

Cacee Cobb, Jessica Simpson's closest friend and personal assistant for over two years, has moved on to other things. She celebrated her last day on the job May 7th:
A woman impersonating Cacee was arrested last summer after scoring nearly $12,000 in free stuff by capitalizing on Cacee's association with Jessica Simpson:
Jessica seems to have replaced Cacee as a best friend with hairstylist Ken Paves. They're photographed everywhere together.
Here's a nearly ten-minute clip from Newlyweds featuring Cacee after she moved in briefly with Nick and Jessica. The best part is Jessica saying that male ballerinas are called "Ballerino," the "masculine form" of the word.
People are saying that Cacee has hooked up with Nick Lachey, since she spent nearly a half hour talking to him at a club last week. They know each other well, and it doesn't seem like it means much.
Here is Jessica outside a NYC recording studio yesterday. [via] and [via]
In the "please let this be true" department is a story that Britney is so unhappy in her marriage to Kevin Federline that she wants a divorce.
From Life and Style via The Scoop comes news that she threw out his booze and wants to surpise him with divorce papers:
So serious, according to one report, that she’s met with her family and lawyer — but not hubby Kevin Federline — and the topic of divorce came up.
“Brit’s been very unhappy, and I think she needs to find some peace,” a source told Life & Style Weekly. “Once the Spears family gets its game plan together, the idea is to spring a divorce on Kev without warning.”
Spears’ rep denies that there are problems with the marriage, but an insider told the mag that Spears was so angry with her partying hubby that she threw out all his liquor.
“She’s not going to let him make her feel like a guest in her own home anymore,” the insider said. “The new rules include no smoking or drinking, since secondhand smoke is bad for the kids.””
That rocks! Britney seems to have found her strength again with recent public appearances for her perfume line and on Letterman, and it looks like she's not going to take any more crap from Kevin.
She would be much better off raising two kids on her own than having to put up with him. Britney was said to be furious when Sean Preston fell off the couch while K-Fed was supposed to be watching him, and that may have helped her realize how useless her husband is.
Meanwhile Kevin is quoted as saying that he wants out of the relationship, too:
Britney recently refused to fund any more expensive trips to Vegas for K-Fed and his friends, showing that she's finally ready to put her foot down.
It looks like the end for these two, and we can't wait! Go Britney.
Here she is outside of the Late Show studio yesterday.
Jessica Simpson showed up at the ALMA awards yesterday with an orange dress, orange skin, and a new orange hairstyle. If Ken Paves is responsible, she should break up with him next. She seems to be suffering from Jennifer Love Hewitt spring fever and we hope she'll go back to her trademark blonde hair soon. What color is her new hairdo anyway? (Thanks to Oh No They Didn't for pointing her new hair out.)
Jessica is said to be pissed off at her less talented sister, Ashlee, for copying her look and getting a nose job that makes her more closely resemble Jessica. Maybe she's trying to go for a more unique appearance. No one would want to copy this hairstyle, that's for sure.
We were all excited about the "secret" dinner meeting and supposed hotel trysts between Jessica and her estranged husband, Nick Lachey. That may all be a rumor, just like most of the news we report. Jessica's representative denies that there was a secret dinner, but admits that the former newlyweds still talk on the phone.
Jessica is also said to have cut all ties with Lachey, calling him "toxic" after his tell-all interview in Rolling Stone. In Jessica's book, that probably means she's not going to call him for a couple of days.
Update: Jessica was wearing a wig that's part of her upcoming line of hairpieces. Now that's a good excuse:
"It's a wig!" she told Kevin on the red carpet. "I put eyeshadow on the blonde to hide it."
In fact, the wig is part of Jessica's new hairpiece line coming out soon, as reported by "The Insider"'s own MARC MALKIN on March 21.
Stavros Niarchos showed up drunk at Paris Hilton's house at 1:00 am on Monday morning begging her to take him back:
Around 2 am Paris finally let him in and the screaming continued. We are told they were so loud the fight could be heard outside the house. Stavros was heard hollering "Take me back!" and "I give you everything!!" Sources say during the fight Matt Leinart's name was brought up a few times.
We are also told Paris was overheard trying to calm down the rich Greek by saying "Take it easy" and "Go home and get some sleep."
During the night, a cab came and went three times, but each time left without the shipping heir. Finally, around 8 in the morning, Stavros got in a cab and headed out.
The plot thickens as Paris and Stavros were seen out Wednesday night together and sources tell us the two wound up spending the night at her house, leaving us to wonder are they apart... or not?
Paris was at Matt Leinart's draft party on Tuesday so that means she was with her new guy one night, and her old one the next.
Matt Leinart may be hot but he's not as rich as Stavros. Stavros inherited $275 million on his 21st birthday this month, while Leinart's contract with the Arizona Cardinals is said to be worth around $12 million. He also has a new endorsement deal with Nike, so it's not like he will be suffering.
Paris is playing the field wisely.
Here she is with Nicky going to Shag nightclub on 5/2. Barbara on the gossip rocks board points out that they are "two different shades of orange" and "so easy to hate." How right she is. [via]
The Scoop reports that Lindsay Lohan moved in on Paris Hilton's man while she was in Austria this weekend making a half a million dollars for hosting a rock concert. You snooze, you lose, Paris.
“Lindsay was all over Stavros,” a bartender told the mag. “At one point, he had his hand up her skirt!” Three days later, Stavros was reportedly seen leaving Lohan’s room at the Chateau Marmont.
Hilton is said to be “heartbroken” over the breakup, but the ever-resilient heiress is already busy mending her heart, and was spotted on the town with football star Matt Leinart.
There are pictures of Paris wearing a wig in a dumb attempt to go incognito while out on a date with Leinart, a USC quarterback, but for now they're low res. Once the big versions are online, we'll post them. (Update: TMZ has a video of the two together)
In the past few weeks, Lohan was said to be upset to find her fuck buddy Brett Ratner in bed with a gorgeous model, prompting a cat fight in Ratner's driveway. She also was said to be dating Keira Knightly's ex, Jamie Dornan. Plus, she just broke her foot. Can't the girl slow down?
Here is Lohan at a press conference for the terrible movie Just my Luck and Hilton arriving at LAX.
Update Paris supposedly broke up with Stavros because she didn't want to party on his boat with him all summer. Who can keep up?
Actress Gillian Anderson and her husband of 16 months, documentary filmmaker Julian Ozanne, have broken up. They announced their pending divorce:
Anderson, 37, and Ozanne, 42, a Kenya-born photojournalist, married at a friend's beach house on Lamu's Shelly Island, just off the Kenyan coast, on Dec. 29, 2004.
They had lived in London with Anderson's daughter from a previous marriage, 11-year-old Piper.
It's sad that it didn't work out for them. We took a while to report this as we were looking for these pictures of Anderson out with Ozanne last month. Thanks to "Hollywood Whore 2005" on the JJB board for finding them so quickly for us.
We think that Anderson has a drinking problem and that may have contributed to her marital problems. She looks wasted in these pictures with her soon-to-be ex husband, and she also seemed drunk at a public appearance at the end of March.
Anderson suffered from drunken air rage in January, and reportedly told a man to pay more attention his wife who was struggling to take care of his son. She also fell down the stairs in her home two years ago, injuring her back. The accident took place in the middle of the night, and who falls down the stairs in the middle of the night when they're sober?
Here are Anderson and Ozanne in happier times.
Pauly Shore and Kylie Minogue dated for a short time after they met on the set of his 1997 movie, Biodome, which Minogue has called her "worst career move." The two didn't last once Minogue figured out who Shore was and went back to England, and Shore is still crying into his beer over it:
The couple spent a romantic holiday in the Bahamas together, and then Shore took the singer to Las Vegas for the first time. He adds, "She loved it because it was so cheesy. She was like laughing at the whole thing."
The couple tried to maintain their love affair, but distance eventually drove them apart. Shore says, "She was over (in London) and I was over in Los Angeles and I guess she started dating some other guy and broke my heart."
Even though it still breaks his heart, Pauly should be commended for being able to talk about it nine years later, just like Angelina Jolie's ex, Jenny Shimizu.
Minogue is doing well as she recovers from breast cancer. She has written a comeback album called "Lessons" that should be out in 2007. She also plans to sing a duet with her boyfriend Olivier Martinez.
Shore had somewhat of a comeback with the indie flick "Pauly Shore is Dead" that came out in 2004, and a 2005 TBS reality show, Minding the Store that centered around Shore trying to run his family's comedy club.
Here is Minogue vacationing in France. [via] The inset picture is a small screencap from Biodome in which Shore's character grabs Minogue's butt. Shore is kissing Joey Lauren Adams in other picture, but it's so small that it's hard to tell. Shore is playing his 90s typecast slacker role while Minogue is a foreign scientist on the film. We're sorry for knowing this. Minogue was not in Son in Law, so obviously we just put her head on top of another actress' body. Screencap [via]
In a new interview in Rolling Stone Nick Lachey comes off as a real stand-up guy.
He says that he had trouble in his marriage with Jessica Simpson due to the way that they were typecast in their reality show "Newlyweds." Lachey suggests that their roles as the ditzy blonde and the good guy influenced the way they interacted off screen.
He also reveals that Jessica's decision to divorce was completely unexpeted and caught him off guard:
The two had just come from having dinner after the American Music Awards.
"The meal was really nice, actually," he says. "We had a good time."
After dinner, they stopped by a friend's house to pick up their dog, then headed for home. On the way, Simpson asked if Lachey was still coming back to Texas with her for the Thanksgiving holiday.
"We already had our plane tickets," he says. "So I didn't understand the question. I said, 'Of course.' And she said something about how we hadn't really been getting along and then said, 'I think I want a divorce.'
"That blindsided me," he confesses. "I basically said, 'Please, let's sleep on it.' But when we woke up the next day, Wednesday morning, she was still sure."
Nick cries when he talks about his marriage, saying he would have done anything to make it work:
He wipes his face, eyes to nose to chin.
"I'd marry her all over again," he says softly. "Because I still love her. It would be a lot easier to walk away if I didn't."
And then the tears start again.
He also says that he doesn't understand Joe Simpson, Jessica and Ashley's controlling father and manager, but does not blame him for his divorce, simply stating that Jessica "is a grown woman." He says that Joe never liked him and was "an influence" in his marriage, but that he did not cause their split.
Lachey refuses to address the rumors that Simpson cheated on him while they were married. He says that Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine, whom Jessica dated up until a short while ago, approached him in a club to say that nothing happened between him and Jessica while they were married. Lachey says he believes him.
Despite reports to the contrary, he has refused to file for spousal support and says that he will not be suing Jessica for alimony!
And even more touching, he says he visited Jessica at her parents house and tried to win her back:
Lachey still has awkward conversations with Simpson on the phone every few days.
Lachey seems thoughful, gracious and introspective in the interview, refusing to blame Simpson for the divorce and never admitting her infidelity. Given his side of the story, it sounds to us like Simpson was too immature to deal with the normal problems in a long term relationship.
He is filming a new reality series for MTV that will focus on the making of his new album. After the responsible way he's dealing with his divorce in the press, his career is sure to benefit.
Here are pictures from a 2005 photoshoot in happier times. [via]
At the end of last month, James Blunt was said to have cheated on his girlfriend, Camilla Boler, with British socialite Tara Palmer-Tomkinson. Boer initially believed Blunt's account that the rumor was untrue, but now that Palmer-Tomkinson has admitted the affair, Boler realizes she was taken for a fool and that Blunt really did cheat. In typical passive aggressive fashion, Blunt didn't break up with Boler until he absolutely had to, and he did it over the phone:
The Back To Bedlam phenomenon split with blonde singer Boler during a trans-Atlantic phonecall last week - after Palmer-Tomkinson openly admitted the fling.
Blunt has also been romantically linked to Czech supermodel Petra Nemcova and The Pussycat Dolls singer Jessica Sutta since embarking on a nine-month world tour, but Boler insisted their relationship was still strong.
Boler, who has now fled to Spain to escape the pain of the split, has labelled the singer a selfish "egomaniac" and admits it "breaks her heart" to hear his hit song You're Beautiful.
It breaks everyone else's heart to have to hear You're Beautiful too.
Here's Blunt performing in Sydney on April 13th.
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:
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 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:
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.
Jessica Simpson needs to work on getting her own identity. First she admits that she apes Angelina Jolie in everything she does - and poorly, we might add - and now she's copying her estranged husband, Nick Lachey, by chronicling her breakup pain in her new album:
"I think that with my music, you can't help but tell people a story about your life," Simpson said. "I believe that every artist, that's their artistry — it comes out of them naturally, through lyrics, through music, through instrumentation. So with this next record, you will see and hear a lot of things I've been going through. And if that can offer any inspiration to anybody else going through the same situations, so be it. That's why I'm here."
It makes sense that she would want to sing about her pain, but it's more likely that she heard what Nick's new album was all about and thought it sounded like a good idea.
Here's Jessica Simpson on April 30th at a grocery store in Sana Fe, NM, where's she was filming "Employee of the Month." She seems to be back in NY at this point.

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

Eminem has filed for divorce from Kim Mathers after a mere three months of marriage. It was his second marriage to the mother of his 10 year-old daughter, Hallie. Eminem should have studied his own lyrics, because he revealed much about his private life and his dysfunctional relationship with Mathers in his music:
I hate you, i hate you, i swear to god i hate you...
No one can hear you, now shut the FUCK up and get what's coming to you.
You were supposed to love me.
Now bleed bitch, bleed!
Eminem may have also revealed the reason why he reunited with Kim - fear of mortality and a feeling of responsibility for his daughter - in the lyrics to his single "When I'm gone":
Hopefully Eminem's daughter is cushioned from the blow of her parents' second divorce and this is not too hard on her.
Eminem and Mathers were married for the first time in 1999 and split up in 2001. Eminem received two years probation for pistol whipping a man he saw kissing Mathers outside a club after their first breakup in 2001.

In a move we never saw coming, Teri Hatcher has said that she's not with Ryan Seacrest. I made up the part about her admitting that it was a publicity stunt. Hatcher was at the Comedy for a Cure benefit for Tuberous Sclerosis on April 2nd and found a business card for a singles dating service in one of the purses she donated for auction. She joked about its meaning, saying it signifies that she's still single:
In response to recent photos that were captured of Hatcher and the American Idol host kissing and reportedly dating, she said, "Well, I guess what's caught on film is caught on film and it would be hard for me to stand here and say that it wasn't me. I'm not a liar and I wouldn't do that, but I could say that I could still use the business card!" When asked if she was attached to Seacrest, she added, "I'm not."
She skirted the question by saying "she's not a liar" and wouldn't "say that it wasn't me" but still maintained that she's single. That's a strange way to deny that you're with someone. If it didn't work out between the two of them, wouldn't she say "We were looking for different things?" In fact, she could have used that excuse anyway!
Seacrest was seen on Saturday taking in a basketball game with Hatcher's costar, Eva Longoria. The two cheered on Longoria's boyfriend, at the Spurs game in San Antonio, TX.

Matt LeBlanc and his wife, Melissa McNight, have split up after three years of marriage. LeBlanc filed divorce papers in LA this week, and LeBlanc's reps confirmed the news.
The couple has a daughter, Marina, 2, who is said to have a neurological disorder that causes her to suffer from seizures. LeBlanc has two stepchildren from a previous marriage.
LeBlanc's sitcom, Joey, has not been officially cancelled, but is expected to be let go by NBC as it has suffered from poor ratings.

A source tells Us Weekly that spending too much time apart was to blame for the eventual demise of the relationship, adding, "They are not getting back together. There seemed to be competition between them."
It can be hard to make a relationship work when a woman is much more successful and high-profile than her husband. If this is true, it's too bad that they couldn't work it out. It certainly seemed like Hilary wanted to try.

Well Kimora Lee Simmons is too rich and fabulous now to spend the time needed to work on her marriage. Now that she has her own money thanks to her husbands support she can kiss him goodbye.
Kimora runs Baby Phat, put out that god-awful book Fabulosity, and has said things like "I represent luxury." No, Kimora, you represent vanity and wastefulness and we hope that you get a lousy settlement in the divorce.

According to Life & Style Magazine, Simpson has been calling Lachey repeatedly to warn him that Kristin Cavalleri (who is now supposedly back with her ex) is using him:
But still sources say Nick has been taking Jessica's calls, but he's not really listening to her warnings, a pal tells the magazine. "Nick is sick of Jessica trying to call the shots in his love life," the source says. "He even told her that she can't have him back!"
This is not the first time we've heard that Jessica has called Nick after their split. In January she was said to be drunken dialing Nick and talking to him in a baby voice.
Jessica is presumed to be single after Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine dumped her by SMS three weeks ago.
She is currently in Albuquerque, NM filming "Employee of the Month." Here she is on March 26. Although Jessica has some friends with her including her best friend, CaCee Cobb, she may be lonely and wistful for what could have been.

“She was thrilled to be back with Brody,” says the source. “She was all over him all night. They left together, too.”
The article in Star speculates that Nick is not over Jessica and mentions that Nick's friends thought Cavallari was up to no good even before this incident. Still, we doubt that one failed rebound relationship will lead Nick and Jessica to reunite.
Here's Cavallari with some obvious hair extensions at the premiere for "Yo Mamma," where she completely denied dating Lachey.
TMZ is reporting that Josh Hartnett, 27, just broke up with Scarlett Johansson, 21. The relatively low key Hollywood couple have lived together in Josh's Tribeca apartment in NY since December, 2005, and have been dating for just about a year.
It's surprising that Josh is the one who supposedly broke up with Scarlett. Scarlett was widely quoted two months ago saying that she didn't believe "human beings are monogamous creatures by nature."
Hartnett stars in the movie "Lucky Number Slevin" which premiered in NY last night. Lucy Liu, Ben Kingsley, and Bruce Willis are also in the film. Here's Hartnett at the premiere and after-party last night. (Josh and Scarlet are shown above in a scene from The Black Dahlia, which has yet to be released.)
The NY Post had this in its "Just Asking" section today:
I'm thinking Kate Bosworth and Orlando Bloom. (Bloom has not been connected with Paris Hilton, but he is probably a couple of degrees of sexual separation away from her.)
The two were photographed together just last week, but I'm still guessing it's them. What do you think?

Charlize Theron, 30, has split with her boyfriend of five years, 33 year-old Irish actor Stuart Townsend, The Sun reports:
Hollywood’s rumour mill went into overdrive. And last night a pal said: “Charlize is free and single again.
“Her relationship with Stuart is well and truly over.
“They just grew apart. It wasn’t always easy because filming often kept them apart for months.”
The Sun also reported that Theron said she wasn't ready to marry Townsend, and that marriage is "not really what I want - or what he wants.”
Theron told Oprah last year that Townsend was her best friend and that the two liked to make out.
Theron flew to Japan the day after the Oscars to promote the Japanese release of Aeon Flux. She certainly keeps busy, and It's a shame that her full schedule got in the way of what seemed like a great relationship.

That's why Teri Hatcher is a fool for falling for her handsome neighbor after only a few weeks of dating. Page Six reports that Hatcher told her sad tale of childhood abuse in an erroneous attempt to share her pain at getting dumped by Clooney:
"Mystery Man" was none other than Clooney, a well-placed source tells Page Six. He dated Hatcher briefly beginning in January, when we first reported they'd gotten cozy, but he dropped her soon after.
"The debacle with Mystery Man . . . made the parallels between her romantic failures and the legacy of her sexual abuse seem too obvious to ignore," Vanity Fair's Leslie Bennetts writes.
Teri, you dumb ass, you can't change men. It's also really, really lame to try to get a guy's attention by being weak and needy. That's why they leave in the first place. We all did this at one point in our dating careers, but Hatcher is old enough to know better than to make such a calculated and public mistake.

Paying attention to Britney Spears is like rubbernecking. You have to try really, really hard not to do it, and everyone does it even though it slows us all down.
Britney is supposedly three months pregnant and is planning to leave Kevin to raise the baby "alone." Here is a thrilling video of the family walking down the street. According to Marie, who puts up all of the best paparazzi photos on the JJB board, the two are staying in separate hotels on the island of Maui.
In these latest photos, Britney sucks in her stomach while shopping and Kevin sucks on a phallic ice cream treat while "filming a video."

Dave says he's been sober for the last four years - nevertheless, going out on the town certainly can create temptation. And while Dave was hitting Hollywood hot spots recently, we've learned that Carmen was thousands of miles away at The Opera Ball in Vienna thrown by multi-millionaire Richard Lugner.
Navarro and Electra's upcoming schedules are full, making it difficult for the two to spend enough time together to rekindle their romance.
Marriage is work, and we hope that Navarro and Electra will put in the time and effort it takes to stay together.

Despite recent denials by Britney's publicist, there is no hiding her baby bump in these bikini pictures from yesterday. Star reports that Britney is definitely pregnant and is dumping Kevin. While we'd rather see her single than with Kevin, they still seem to be together. Photos from the last few days show them in Hawaii holding hands and going for a walk with the baby.
The woman with Britney in these photographs seems to be the one seen with Kevin on the hotel balconey earlier.
Update: The National Ledger has highlights from the Star article, which claims that Britney is three months pregnant and wants a trial separation.

Star is set to report that Jessica Simpson has been dumped by current flame Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine - via text message!
Although some say Simpson's link with Jude Law was just a case of someone mistaking him for the less famous Levine, Star reports that now that Jessica is free again, things are heating up between the two:
It all started when Levine blew-off their Valentine’s Day date as Jess pressured him for answers. It took a while to sink in and when it did, she told her best friend, “I just got dumped.” And by text message, no less. Ouch!
Not that Simpson will have trouble finding companionship. A source tells Star that she and British heartthrob Jude Law have been calling each other non-stop – even though they’re thousands of miles apart.
It's heartless to use a text message to tell someone you need space. It doesn't matter how hot you are, if a guy is a commitment-phobe he's going to bolt.

Uma Thurman and her boyfriend, hotelier Andre Balazs, have split up after a nearly two-year romance. Balazs runs a hotel empire including celebrity hangouts such as the Mercer in New York and the Chateau Marmont and Standard hotel on LA's Sunset Strip.
Thurman and Balazs have been dating since 2004. The two purchased a mansion together in Hyde Park, NY in November of 2004, and also shared a loft apartment in SoHo near the Mercer Hotel. Most recently, they spent their Christmas holidays in the French Caribbean.
Thurman may have put off splitting up as long as possible. She seems to feel lost without a partner, and compared being alone to losing a part of herself:
"I'm with a wonderful man who's been there for me - that's something very unusual for me," she gushed of Balazs in an interview last year. "I'm very happy. I couldn't live without any of my essential organs."
At the 2/26 release party for a pop psychology book, Thurman also admitted that she was what the author categorized as a "Denial" type, and that she prefers to pretend things are fine in a crisis.
The two were photographed on February 22 (shown above) sharing a kiss that was clearly one-sided.

One of my high school friends lived on a farm. In the early 90s I stopped by to smoke some cloves with her, and was amazed to see her little pit bull running around with a dead chicken hanging from its neck. The dog had killed the chicken, you see, and had the dead animal attached to it as punishment.
Sienna Miller wore the same leather dog collar on different dresses both before and after the Oscars. Our theory is that she feels guilty for not being able to care for the dogs she recently returned to her ex, Jude Law, and is wearing the collar as a reminder.

Another picture emerged today of Nicole Richie with ex-boyfriend DJ AM. The two were spotted holding hands as they left Beverly Hills restaurant La Scala. [via]
This is the second recent picture of the two together. They were seen holding hands after a dinner date just last week.
The two confirmed their split on December 7, 2005. According to The Bastardley, AM broke up with Richie after a ten-month engagement because she was too skinny and reminded him of an adolescent.

Reports are surfacing that Britney was enraged after being tipped off about photos of Kevin with his arm around French "actress" Sandy Lakdar, aka DIE2DIE. She supposedly kicked him out - yes again:
Federline, who was working on his debut album in Los Angeles, was photographed cuddling with a sultry young dancer, called SANDY LAKDAR, outside Hollywood's Millennium Studios.
A friend of Spears' says, "She was literally kicking and screaming (when she heard about the photos). When she got back to her suite, she was so furious, she destroyed everything in sight. She called Kevin but couldn't reach him."
The friend claims Spears has since ordered her husband to pack his bags and "get the hell out" of the house she shares with him in Malibu, California.
The dates seem a bit sketchy, considering that she was just in New Orleans with Kevin. It's possible that she kicked him out afterward.
For her part, Lakdar says that she just met Kevin that day, so of course nothing could have happened:
This argument is weak, given how intimate the two looked. Whether she's telling the truth or not, the pictures are damning. If she only met him that day, then she might not have fucked him but it's still wrong for him to treat her like an old friend. When I first saw the pictures, I even thought the two might be related. Please let it be true that Britney kicked him out, and let's hope she's not really pregnant again. (Or at least that it's not K-Fed's.)

New details about Eddie Murphy's past may come out in the divorce proceedings with his wife of 13 years, Nicole. Page 6 speculates that she may fight the prenup, citing Murphy's infidelity with various street trannies.
In 1997, Murphy was caught by West Hollywood police with a transvestite hooker in his car. He told his wife that he "stopped to help a person crying." Several other hookers sold tales of Murphy's solicitation to the tabloids, and all of them were convinced to recant, with one exception:
"In less than 10 days," Barresi says, "I got them all to sign sworn, videotaped depositions, stating it wasn't Murphy himself, but rather a look-alike, who they'd encountered - with the exception of Suiuli." In 1998, she fell to her death from her L.A. roof.
Atisone Suiuli was the tranny found in Murphy's car in 1997. After being caught by police, she had proof that she was with Murphy and wouldn't change her story. How convenient for him that she died soon afterwards.

Media Take Out claims to have the exclusive story that Nick Lachey fudged his separation date to get his hands on the additional million Jessica made in the interim:
But Nick may have fudged the truth. MediaTakeOut.com has learned that on November 23rd, Nick's publicist released an official statement announcing that the couple had separated. According to the November statement, exclusively obtained by MediaTakeOut.com, the couple announced that "after three years of marriage, and careful thought and consideration, [they] decided to part ways". The obvious inconsistency between this official statment and Nick's recent divorce response is troubling to those close to Jessica.
You have to give the guy credit for trying, though. It's not like he doesn't deserve the money for putting up with Jessica.

Britney's own cousin talks trash about her relationship, speculating that Britney and K-Fed will split up soon:
The pop princess wants to do the best thing for the sake of her four-monthold baby Sean Preston, according to Art Spears, a 52-year-old engineer.
Britney's cousin Art said: "I don't think Britney and Kevin are going to stay together.
"Her son is her life and she will obviously do what ever is best for him - but does that involve Kevin? I don't think so."
We have heard that they fight in public, she has thrown him out of the house in the past and may have briefly taken his Ferrari away, and there are many pictures of Britney without her ring. Britney is also in Hawaii with SP while K-Fed cavorts with a French "actress" in LA. Of course their relationship is stable.
