Christina Ricci attended the premiere of her new movie Penelope last night in LA. What I admire most about Christina Ricci is how she balances her acting career with her sacred duties to bake fresh batches of E.L. Fudge's every night in a tree. I tried to find that tree once but gave up after a bear ate my Indian guide's arm. In hindsight, maybe I shouldn't have sprayed the chief with honey then kicked a sleeping bear in the stomach. Live and learn, I guess. NOTE: I like how Reese Witherspoon showed up to the premiere looking like your mom. Before the show, she probably turned to her stylist and said "Make me look 40 - but with menopause!" Mission accomplished.

Liz Hurley and her husband, Arun Nayar have been recently accused of underpaying their Indian maid. They were reportedly paying the live-in maid, Violet d'Souza, less than $2.00 an hour! The legal minimum wage is London is £5.52, or about $8.17.

Hiss!!!! Hiss!!!!!!!!!

Violet, 31, was said to be working up to 70 hours a week and earning close to nothing. She would often work from 7:30am and at times not finish until 3:00am. She was brought to Britain by Nayar's family.

According to reports, d'Souza was going to take her case to an employment tribunal this Friday, but has dropped the claim after reportedly being offered a five-figure settlement agreement.

Violet was claiming "breach of contract, failure to supply a written statement of terms, race discrimination and unfair dismissal." She was also claiming back pay.

Hurley is said to be worth about $20 million, and her husband has millions himself, coming from a wealthy Indian textiles family.

For a couple worth in the millions, they couldn't even afford to pay their maid minimum wage?

More publicity for her!

Delta Burke, best known for her role in Designing Women - way back in the day, is at it again.

The actress is talking to the media about recently checking in to a psychiatric hospital and how she got there. According to Burke, she was so depressed at times, that she would be unable to get out of bed for two weeks.

Burke claims she has had a lifelong battle with depression, at times taking up to five different medications to help her treatment.

That seems like an awful lot!

According to a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Burke went to a clinic to "get my meds straightened out and to get properly diagnosed." And she has. Docs have since scaled back her intake.

Burke was also reported to be receiving treatment for hoarding, to which she admits she does and an addiction to the QVC Shopping Network and online auction sites.

We don't blame her. Who doesn't love the creepy ladies on QVC and HSN?

Delta is also opening up about one night when she had gotten so upset about an article that a tabloid had written about her, she drove up to the top of the hill, with a bottle of Xanax, and a gun next to her. Blurke recalls, "I just kept taking Xanax and hoping the pain would stop. I got really sleepy and decided to go for a ride. I needed a Diet Coke really bad. I called up [husband Gerald McRaney]. I didn't know where I was but he found me."

You heard it people, when depressed, just go for that Diet Coke. You'll get that tingly, happy feeling inside. It's better than the gun!

The above picture is a simulation of how Britney Spears will look at age 36. It was done by the folks at www.ageprogession.org who factored in Britney's current fast food diet, drug and alcohol use and apparently receding hair line. They also produced a shot of Britney at 46 who I guess, in the midst of a mid-life crisis, decided being blonde is sexier. These pictures are pretty amazing considering I always pictured Britney buried in a coffin by 30. Thanks to science I now know she'll lead a rich, full life surrounded by cats and old copies of Readers Digest. Outstanding.

While Jessica Biel is in London filming her new movie, Justin Timberlake is supposedly keeping busy with Kate Hudson. In defiance of all logic, the two have been spotted together recently and it's been more than friendly. Life & Style reports:

Justin was spotted in early February having lunch at a Whole Foods Market in NYC with Kate Hudson. And on Jan. 11, Justin and Kate were seen at the new club Villa in Hollywood and reports circulated that they kissed.

There's no way this can be true. Justin Timberlake wouldn't just wake up one morning and decide he hates having sex with Jessica Biel which is scientifically impossible. That's like getting into Heaven and saying "Eh. It's alright, I guess. Do you mind if I just slam my penis in the Pearly Gates instead?" Because that's what I imagine sex with Kate Hudson is like. And also Matthew McConaughey is in the background bench-pressing a walrus. I should really see a therapist.

A New Jersey woman purchased some items at an auction that belonged to Tara Reid's grandmother. The items include a ton of Tara's baby photos and letters the grandmother wrote to baby Tara. But the Reid family doesn't seem to be interested, according to Page Six:

"These are sentimental family heirlooms," said the current owner. "It has no monetary value but looks like it would be valuable to the family." She's tried reaching out to the Reid family, but, "They just don't seem interested, or maybe they aren't even aware we have it."

I happen to have a copy of one those letters right here. Let's take a peak at this precious exchange from a loving grandmother: Dear sweet little Tara, Your Grandmama so enjoys your visits with her and Poppy. We think it's just adorable the way your two-year-old little hands open the liquor cabinet and pour yourself a juice cup full of Jim Bean. It was also so heartwarming to introduce us to your boyfriend you met at the track when you escaped for four hours. Your Poppy loves meeting new people. He'd never met a 60-year-old truck driver before. I think you two make a handsome couple - when you're not piss drunk and throwing bottles at each other. But relationships are a tricky sort. Grandmama has to go now. The police are here to ask questions about your little car ride. We still don't know how you reached the pedals. Such a smart girl you are. Hugs and Kisses! Grandmama P.S. Hope you enjoy the scotch-soaked Oreos! My little cupcake's favorite treat! Smooches!
