"We're just friends," Lauren Conrad is saying about ex-boyfriend Stephen Colleti, whom she's been photographed with a lot lately.

What she's thinking: "We're totally fucking, but if I say we're 'just friends' then I can drag this story out longer!"

What she wants us to think: "Heidi is a whore!"

What Stephen's thinking: "I NEED this chick for publicity! I got fired from my job as a VJ on MTV and from One Tree Hill. I need work!"

What he wants us to think: "I'm not gay."

What we're really thinking: "Who cares about these two? The Hills is fake anyways!"

Hayden Panettiere saves the whales (But not Jennifer Love Hewitt)

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Hayden Panettiere, my favorite activist midget, spoke for almost two hours about saving sea life at Dupont Circle in Washington D.C. She didn’t use any notes and picketed traffic with other activists, according to the Washington Post:
"I get that rush and feeling of really making a difference rather than just lending my face to something," she told us. "I'd rather people pay attention to me doing this than shopping at Fred Segal." No fear of a Fonda-like backlash? "We're saving magnificent animals. I don't think anyone objects to that. I don't trust people who don't love animals."
That reminds me, I saw Hayden’s boyfriend Milo Ventimiglia shoot a whale with a machine gun the other day. Yeah, seriously. Then he ate some non-dolphin-safe tuna and, uh, kicked a crab. Right in the claw. True story. As for me, I freaking love animals. Just yesterday I rescued a unicorn from the pound then rode down the beach helping baby seals find their mothers. Afterwards, to demonstrate my love of the sea, I made out with a mermaid. Or a manatee with a wig. Either way, I'll never go back to land-dwelling women again.

Sam Lufti says Britney is getting treatment

Monday, January 28th, 2008
Thumbnail image for 1205_sam_lufti_driving_00.jpg Britney Spears’ pal/manager/leech Sam Lufti called into The View today and spoke to Barbara Walters. He told Barbara that Britney is in treatment and has been suffering from mood swings. Sam also revealed Britney has reconciled with her mother, according to People:
When those at the table challenged the veracity of Lutfi's report, Walters's response was, "I don't know if anybody is telling the truth or not telling the truth." But she noted, "He has been with her constantly. He seems to be enormously supportive."
All of this is pretty convenient considering Page Six ran an article today about Sam’s three restraining orders out against him. One of them is from his former best friend Danny Haines who claims Sam was “more jealous than a lover”:
When Haines eventually cut him off, Lufti humiliated him, e-mailing naked photos of him to his family, friends and co-workers. He texted and called incessantly and, according to court documents, told Haines he hoped his sister would be "raped to death." Haines says that in one e-mail to him, Lufti wrote of Haines' mother that he hoped "Satan devours her flesh and bones" and he looked forward to the day when he would "p - - - on her burial."
Then again I, too, equate enormously supportive with grave pissing. In fact, I don’t really see how you can have one without the other. Maybe it’s because I was raised by an undertaker with a heart of gold and a weak bladder. Who knows?

Angelina Jolie’s dress suggests pregnantitis

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Angelina Jolie attended the 14th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards yesterday and her dress has stoked the rumor flames that she’s pregnant again. This poor woman can’t catch a break. So Angelina and Brad Pitt have a hundred kids (scientific estimate). That doesn’t mean she’s perpetually knocked up. She can’t even order a cheeseburger without someone saying “Angelina Jolie eats for two.” Can’t we just respect her as a human being by ogling her awesome rack? Hey, wait, Brad Pitt’s in these pictures, too. Get out. Was he there the whole time?

Britney Spears ‘video diaries’ on sale for $2 million

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Adnan Ghalib, Britney Spears paparazzi boyfriend (or ex-boyfriend depending what day it is), has six video diaries of Britney that he’s shopping around for $2 million. He’s holding onto clips four and five for now, but here’s a supposed rundown of the clips that show Britney is definitely out of it. Or really, really good at acting crazy. News of the World reports: Clip 1: Britney sitting on her bed wearing a nightie. She talks about herself in the third person and rambles about her childhood. She's heard saying: "When Britney was a child, she had to work really hard. When she was 13 years old, she won all the beauty pageants." Clip 2: Brit wrapped in a white bath towel, again perched on the edge of the bed. Talking to thin air, she mumbles: "Britney has an angel looking out for her, don't you, angel?" Clip 3: Britney talking to Adnan, who's holding the camera, and calling him by his pet name Bubba. She smiles: "I'm really happy. Bubba's here for me now. It's all good." Clip 6: Britney crying hysterically after a night out. Mascara stains her cheeks as she wails: "Britney wants to live. I'm not crazy. I miss the kids and I did love Kevin." I’ll assume the missing clips show either Britney and Adnan doing it, or Britney wearing a bikini made of Pop Tarts and licorice. She begs “Bubba, let’s go eat somewhere fancy. I’m all sexy for you. These ones gots frosting, y’all.” NOTE: I included pics of Britney shopping at the Hustler store yesterday. Or, as she calls it, the "lie-berry".

Tom Cruise’s insanity is good for recruitment

Monday, January 28th, 2008
0128_tom_cruise_sag_00.JPG The leaked Scientology recruitment videos starring Tom Cruise have apparently been a good thing for the followers of Xenu, according to Page Six:
"Having presented these selective and out-of-context excerpts with the intent of creating both controversy and ridicule resulted in people searching for Church of Scientology Web sites," a rep for the faith told Page Six. Scientology turned up on the "most searched for" lists of various search engines.
Sorry, everyone, my bad. I was in one of those alien porn moods all last week and figured if anyone had some good links it’d be Scientologists. They, uh, actually had some freaky videos. Way freakier than what I was looking for. I won’t really get into it but I’ll never look at E.T. the same way again. Or Hot Pockets. *shudders*

Heath Ledger may have died of natural causes

Monday, January 28th, 2008
0128_heath_ledger_natcauses_00.JPG In the latest round of speculation on Heath Ledger’s death, TMZ is reporting that sources connected to the case feel there’s a strong chance Heath died of natural causes and not accidental overdose:
The reason they think that -- it's now appearing that the level of toxicity (from medication) in Ledger's system was low enough that it may not have caused his death. These sources say Heath's heart stopped. It could have been a heart attack but it's not certain, at least not yet. Although it's bizarre that a 28-year-old could die of natural causes, it happens.
Pauly Shore presented his own conspiracy theory (video here) that it was the Olsen twins. Why someone would interview Pauly Shore is beyond me. I would’ve videotaped an ant carrying a potato chip instead. But only because I’m so dedicated to journalism. Also, I'm on the Pringles payroll. Hey, pec implants don't grow on trees. Yet...

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden Step out

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

Nicole Richie and JoelTwo weeks after welcoming daughter Harlow, Nicole Richie is skinny again.

Clad in a black hip-hugging dress, Richie, 26, and her rocker beau Joel Madden joined new grandfather Lionel Richie at a birthday bash Friday for Richie’s manager Benny Medina in L.A. (Medina recently brokered Richie’s million-dollar sale of her baby pictures.)

It must have been tough leaving Harlow at home.

Madden, 28, recenly blogged on the Web site of his clothing company, DCMA Collective, “I had no idea what love even was until Harlow came along.

“I swear it’s so hard to leave during the day, but always so rewarding to come home to the little family.

And how is Harlow?

“She’s already growing too fast!” he wrote.

Private Memorial for Heath Ledger Held in L.A.

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

heath ledgerAn intimate memorial for Heath Ledger, attended by immediate family and close friends including former girlfriend Naomi Watts, was held in Los Angeles on Saturday night just hours after the actor’s death was marked at a New York event.

A discreet 30-minute service was held at Westwood Village Memorial Park, Australia’s Channel 7 reports, during which Watts was “visibly upset.”

Around 8 p.m. that evening, a small gathering of black-dressed mourners, including the Australian actress, was seen in the lobby of the Beverly Hills Hotel for a private event, a source said. Ledger’s rep had said that no public memorial was planned for Los Angeles.

Earlier, about 1,000 guests at an Australian event in New York heard a message from Ledger’s father, Kim Ledger, read by Australia’s consul-general.

“Heath did not become an actor for the fame or fortune. He loved his craft and he loved helping his friends. He loved chess and skateboarding too,” said the letter read to guests at the G’Day USA Australia Day Ball at the Waldorf Astoria in Manhattan. “My image of Heath in New York is him with his skateboard, a canvas bag and his beanie. That was Heath to me.”

But mostly, Kim wrote, “Heath is and always will be an Australian.”

Kim, Ledger’s mother Sally and sister Kate were in Los Angeles on Saturday awaiting arrival of the actor’s body from New York, The Age reports. Ledger was found dead in his New York apartment on Tuesday. A cause of death has not been determined.

According to several Australian news reports, a memorial and burial in Ledger’s hometown of Perth are also expected.

The Los Angeles memorial was first reported by Entertainment Tonight.

Fred Savage & Wife Expecting Second Child

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

Fred SavageFred Savage wants the world to know about his newest project – another child!

“We’ve got number two cooking right now,” Savage, 31, said at Saturday’s 60th annual Directors Guild of America Awards in L.A., pointing to his wife Jennifer Stone’s belly. The pair is already proud parents of a son.

“We’re due in May,” Savage revealed, but Stone said the baby’s name and sex are going to be a surprise.

Savage and Stone, childhood sweethearts who married in Aug. 2004, welcomed their first child, son Oliver, in Aug. 2006.

Asked whether they’re thinking more kids, Savage said with a smile, “That’s a discussion.”

Savage, who directed last year’s comedy feature Daddy Day Camp, was nominated for his second Directors Guild award Saturday, for his work on the Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place.
