Hi there,
I wanted to let you guys know that after two and a half great years of providing your gossip fix, I've decided to retire my newsletter. It's something I've been considering for awhile now, but my decision became easier to make after finding out that I'm pregnant with baby #2.
However, because I don't want to leave you hanging, I'm going to let you in on some of my favorite sources. First off, I begin every morning by going to PageSix.com. It's a gossip's Bible. |
Next I cruise over to IMDB.com and then check out Jeanette Wall's 'The Scoop' on msnbc.com. Altho, if you ask me, ol' Jeanette must be on the bankroll of most of the publicists and studios because her 'gossip' is oh so politically correct.
On Monday you have to check out Billy Master's hilarious column on Filth2Go.com. And on Thursdays go to E! Online for 'The Awful Truth' with Ted Casablancas. However, be warned that Ted's dish has gotten a little confusing (too many tongue twisters and what I believe he must think of as witty repartee), self-serving and bland in the past couple of years.
Get yourself a subscription to one of the weekly rags - In Touch, Star, US Weekly. But for the love of God, don't waste your money buying more than one. They have all the same stories - just look at their covers on any given week.
Now, just following my rules won't make you a savvy gossip. You have to learn how to filter the bullshit. Anything that comes from a publicist? Bullshit. A star is suffering from 'exhaustion?' Bullshit. In the hospital with dehydration? Maybe, but it ain't just because they haven't been drinking enough water! Addiction to prescription drugs? Yeah, probably - and probably coke or heroin, too. Tom Cruise has a new girlfriend? Right! Learn to filter the bullshit - that's all I've tried to do for you these past couple of years.
I would feel like I'm letting you down if I didn't make a couple of predictions for the coming years. Paris will eventually go away. Pink will come out. Orlando Bloom will continue to kinda creep me out. Demi and Ashton will get hitched. Ben n' Jen really will stay friends - he'll take buddy Matt Damon's lead and date a hot 'regular' girl but Jen will hook up with another actor (although B list). JHo will make a comeback. Ben Affleck won't, but he won't go away either (for which I'm secretly happy).
Thanks to all of you for spreading the word about my little newsletter. This started as a labor of love for my husband and close friend and turned into a list of over one hundred people. I've run on a couple of different websites - DailyGusto.com and popbytes.com. I want to thank Harry and MK for their unwavering support of my goofy columns and encourage you all to visit them.
I may be giving up my newsletter, but I'm forever addicted to celebrity gossip, so please continue to email me new scoop and to dish. It's been really fun meeting you all.
Love, NikkiB
ah the return of a dear popbytes friends - nikkib who pens a really fun column you didnt hear it from me - and graciously allows me to post it to popbytes! - i love her attitude and i know a lot of you do too! so below is quick update from the gal! stay tuned for next week column! - thanks n! you rock! glad yr back to dishing with me/popbytes and all the pop dirt there is to dish...and i hope your all watching american idol...

So, Brad and Jen are kaput. Everyone I know is sad about it, but at the same time I think we at
least knew that it might happen. I always admired the way they kept the media out of their
relationship and I'm sure their break up will be handled with the same dignity. It's so damn
civilized! However, I did hear from a reliable source that it was an open ‘secret' on the set of
'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' that Brad was getting' it on with Angelina Jolie. I just wonder if B & J were
already over when that happened? | |
Let's talk about something that might not be quite as polite. Did you see Sunday's Golden Globes?
Loved ‘em! Did you see my favorite show, 'nip/tuck' win for Best TV Drama? Did you see John Hensley
who plays son, Matt (and who was obviously fucked up on something more than champagne, if ya ask me)
giving Joely Richardson the evil eye? If you remember, a few months ago I told you that they were
seeing eachother. Well, based on Sunday's performance, I would guess that the affair is over and
Johnny-Boy is having a hard time accepting it. As they were all standing in a line up on stage, he
was wobbling and kept staring toward Richardson. After the acceptance speech was over, the camera
flashed to Richardson's sister and brother in law (aka Natasha Richardson and Liam Neeson). Neeson
was TOTALLY pissed, and I'm almost positive that I saw him saying to Natasha, 'What the fuck?! Did
you see him?' My husband isn't sure that this is really what happened, but I think it is.
Anyway, I thought everyone looked really nice. Eva Longoria, who is quickly becoming the celeb I
would most like to be friends with, looked really sweet. Teri Hatcher looked awesome. Whether she
had new plastic surgery or the work she had done has finally healed, I thought she looked very
pretty and not as cat-like as she had been looking. Even though I'm not a huge fan, I thought Hilary
Swank looked good. My favorite couple of the night was Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy – so
classy, so cute, so obviously in love. I couldn't decide whether I liked Cate Blanchett's dress or
not, but the truth of the matter is she could wear a paper bag and you would ask yourself, 'Is that
cute? It might be cute…'
Scoop from the night includes (courtesy of Page Six): Did you know that Tobey Maguire was supposed
to introduce 'The Aviator' but backed out because he's too fat?! James King (formerly JAMIE) was
hitting on Zach Braff all night…wonder what Mandy Moore will think about that?
That's all I've got this week, kids. I'll be back next week as usual – with all kinds of scoop
served up with a little sass. See ya then!
PS Scarlett Johannsen looked like crap.

You really haven't heard it from me lately, huh? Sorry I've been MIA, but the holidays have caught
up with me. I've made Christmas throw up in my house and as of this weekend I'm about 95% done with
my shopping.
I've found the most fabulous new foundation! (Sorry for the guys who don't care about this - altho I
suspect a couple of you actually do) It's Vincent Longo Dew Finish and it's so packed full of stuff
that's good for your skin that my skin actually looks better without makeup now, too! It feels
really light going on, but it's got great coverage without feeling heavy or cakey. It FEELS lighter
than a tinted moistuerizer, but I swear it gives better coverage.

Anyway, like you, I'm going to be really busy over the next few weeks. I'll be back in January!
While I'm gone, take a look at this Ofoto album. My husband swears that it has been obviously photo
shopped, but I'm not so sure. Let me know what you think!

Wasn't I just asking you about Portia?! Now we have our answer! And this is just my opinion...but I
don't think this is another Ellen n' Anne situation, as is being hinted here. Just because the media
wasn't talking about Portia's sexuality doesn't mean that she just suddenly turned gay a'la Ms.
Heche.
Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are shacking up after ditching their longtime lady loves. On
Friday it was reported that DeGeneres had split with her girlfriend of four years,
photographer-director Alexandra Hedison. We're told the real reason for the break is that DeGeneres
is now deeply in love with de Rossi, the Australian-born 'Arrested Development' diva. De Rossi
recently dumped her longtime gal pal, singer-songwriter Francesca Gregorini (Ringo Starr's
stepdaughter) to be with DeGeneres, a source close to the new couple told PAGE SIX's Jared Paul
Stern. The pair are now in DeGeneres' house in the Hollywood Hills which Hedison left a couple weeks
ago. DeGeneres, 46, and de Rossi, 31, first met nine months ago on a photo shoot, we're told. They
fell 'instantly in love,' de Rossi gushed to pals at the time. But DeGeneres remained loyal to
Hedison, whom she often credited with 'saving her life' at a time of crisis. However, when DeGeneres
and de Rossi met up again at VH1's 'Big in '04' awards gala in L.A. on Dec. 1, events took their
natural course. Their respective girlfriends were absent, and this time there was no stopping the
lusty ladies. They managed to find a private spot and 'things got so hot and heavy between them that
they raced to a limo and fooled around for hours,' our source reports. The very next day de Rossi
left Gregorini, saying she was madly in love with DeGeneres, and DeGeneres asked Hedison to move out
of their house, though we're told the pair plan to make it seem they were already single in order to
minimize the fallout. Reps for DeGeneres and de Rossi could not be reached for comment. 'Alexandra
and Francesca are both devastated,' says a source close to the women. 'Neither of them had any idea
what was coming.' There is obviously some bitterness, and while some friends speculate that
DeGeneres and de Rossi were secretly seeing each ever since they first met, others snipe that de
Rossi is out for all the publicity she can get with a new high-profile relationship. 'People who
know Ellen well feel she is going through a midlife crisis, dumping Alexandra for a hot, younger
woman,' says our snitch. 'They predict Ellen will come to her senses and dump Portia to go back to
Alexandra in the near future.' - { pagesix.com}
Nope, I still don't like Scarlett.
It didn't look like anything was 'Lost in Translation' when Derek Jeter chatted up Scarlett
Johansson the other night in Los Angeles. The Yankee captain and the Oscar nominee were tucked into
a booth at Microsoft's holiday party last Thursday at Geisha House, the new Hollywood club owned by
Ashton Kutcher, Danny Masterson, Dulé Hill and Wilmer Valderrama. 'I didn't see any kissing,' a
spywitness tells us. 'But they were very close and really flirting.' Later, the pair is said to have
left together. - {Rush & Molloy, NYDailyNews.com}
I love how Page Six doesn't even TRY to make these difficult to guess!
Which young Hollywood couple has an open relationship? The guy 'who has money but no career' likes
to be seen with the actress for the publicity. And she stays with him because he supplies her with
high-grade cocaine. They both cheat on each other but make nice for the cameras. - { pagesix.com}

I thought I would brighten everyone's week by giving you a new list: Celebs I Can't Stand! Isn't that fun?
I thought about this way too hard and therefore probably missed some obvious choices.
As with my celebrity boyfriends list, I'm sure this will be ever-changing.
5 Penelope Cruz
Salma Hayek was here first and besides, she's hotter.
4 Melanie Griffith
Obvious craziness aside, I just can't get over that horrible 'Antonio' tat on her arm.
3 Michael Rappaport
I can't explain it, I've just always hated him.
|
2 Jude Law
Sexiest Man Alive? I knew I hated People Magazine for more reasons than their crappy stories. Jude Law wins Girliest Man Alive for me.
1 Elizabeth Hurley
I don't feel as though I need to explain myself. Suffice it to say that I've hated her since that horrible Versace safety pin dress.
Honorable Mentions:
Renee Zellwegger, Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe, Usher, Celine Dion
Now, just to prove to you all that I'm not all negative, here's a list of my favorite things this week (in no particular order):
• Veronica Mars
• Wendy's single combo (biggie sized with a diet coke, of course)
• Pork Chops as the only entree at a wedding reception (ballsy, go Kate!)
• Mary Kate & Ashley lip gloss
• Cooking meals in my slow cooker
• My Baby Jake

If Lindsay Lohan & Mischa Barton go to rehab do you think they could take Tara Reid for us, too?
Is there anything better than a crazy rumor that we can't confirm? Now this might be the
Glade-and-Sharpie cocktail we just huffed talking, but the plastic pumpkin left over from Halloween
told us a rumor that Mischa Barton and Lindsay Lohan are going on vacation together. No word on
where they're going, but they should be back in 28 days or so. We know! Totally nuts, right? Didn't
Lohan just get back to work on Herbie: Fully Loaded after her hospital stay? Isn't Barton shooting
The O.C.? And what are the odds they'd both take trips at the same time with their crazy schedules?
Never mind. This Sharpie is spent and Mr. Pumpkin is threatening to eat our soul if we don't run out
to the Office Depot for a refill. That crazy devil pun'kin! - { defamer.com}
Oh, Nicole! You naughty, naughty girl! (Said in my most sarcastic voice) I wonder if her PR folks planted stunning admission this to throw us off the trail of the truly disgusting thing she's up to dating Steve Bing. EW!
Nicole Kidman has unveiled a secret 'addiction' - she's a smoker. The Oscar-winning actress admits
she enjoys the occasional cigarette, and she currently has no plans to ditch the habit. She tells
Harper's Bazaar, 'I smoke cigarettes! Occasionally. It's an addiction and I would say to anybody who
was going to start, 'Don't.' But you have to enjoy life a little, don't you? When I see a great
piece of cheese and wonder if it's better to eat it and get cellulite or not eat it, in the end,
I'll probably nibble on the cheese.' - { imdb.com}
I thought and thought about this but couldn't come up with anything. Ok, maybe I didn't think that hard . Who do YOU think it is?
Could it be that a certain sitcom star has seduced his smaller sibling? So say my spies on the set
of that man show who tell me that what started as cute camaraderie quickly turned into sweet savage
sex. When their religious taskmaster suggested the cast spend more time on their knees, I don't
think this is quite what he had in mind. At least they followed his direction to the letter -
grammatically speaking, of course. - { filth2go.com}
Ok, I know the whole 'Tara Reid and Her Weird Boob' thing is old news, but I just LOVED this bit about Carson 'Puffy' Daly.
Tara Reid knows how to make an entrance. Some parts more than others. She turned up at P. Diddy's
35th birthday extravaganza Thursday, comfortably after the cocktail hour. But while posing for
photographers on the red carpet, her left breast decided to get some air. One photographer reports:
'Her top fell down and one breast popped out. Her nipple looked reconstructed. She didn't know it
was hanging out and we were all snapping. Finally, a PR lady fixed her strap.' (The reps were
distracted because, moments before Reid's exposure, designer Betsey Johnson had knocked over one of
the flaming lanterns along the red carpet.) The photographer continued, 'After she pulled her top
back up, Tara had real anger in her face. She came over to us and wanted to see the pictures. She
told us, 'Let me see those. You guys better not use those or else - you're all scum.'' Her former
beau Carson Daly showed up sometime later. 'We were wondering whether we should show him,' said the
snapper. 'But I said, 'He's not going to recognize those breasts anyway.'' - {Gatecrasher, NYDNews.com}
Brigitte Nielsen is like a scary movie she's scares me in a good way .
Brigitte Nielsen seemed to be feeling no pain on a Swedish TV show recently. The great Dane appeared
on a show called 'High Chaparral' and says our source, 'She kept smacking [the hosts], singing, was
drinking [we're not sure what] She kept saying Dig it.'' (The Scoop)
Oh man, I would SO rather Kate & Chris break up.
Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell have reportedly split after a 21-year romance. Friends have revealed
the couple's relationship has 'lost its zip' in recent years and Hawn has moved on to realize her
dream of traveling the world. In recent years, the 59-year-old Buddhist actress has been spending
more and more time in India, where she often meets up with Pakistani cricket legend Imran Khan - a
friendship that has reportedly upset Russell. According to sources on the set of Russell's new movie
Sky High, the actor isn't taking the split well. One tells America's Globe tabloid that the movie
star has been surly on the set, arguing with cast mates Kelly Preston and Lynda Carter. The source
tells the tabloid, 'Kurt seemed totally out of control and, instead of letting up when he saw
Kelly's reaction, he just kept going until she finally burst into tears. - { imdb.com}
I don't really care about Saffron Burrows and Fiona Shaw shacking up, but it got me thinking about Portia di Rossi. Am I the only one who remembers that she was living with Francesca Gregorini back in her Ally McBeal days?!
Is sexy actress Saffron Burrows planning to go public with a
lesbian love affair? The tasty 'Troy' tartlet, 31, is shacking up with 'Harry Potter' actress Fiona
Shaw, 45, reports the London Sun, which says they plan to make an announcement soon. Burrows, who recently moved into
Shaw's North London pad, once told an interviewer, 'I don't think who I sleep with is of any
interest to anyone.' A pal told the paper, 'They've been together for a while but the relationship
has moved up a gear and they want to commit to each other.' Her rep had no comment. - { pagesix.com}
Could this be my BFF Kelly Ripa?
Which stick-thin TV personality who is secretly battling an eating disorder was spotted at Star
Jones' wedding salivating over the sumptuous dessert buffet at the Waldorf-Astoria? She allowed
herself to taste one canapé and that was it. - { pagesix.com}
Not to give Star REYNOLDS (puh-leeze) more space than she deserves, but here's another awkward event ol' Al threw before the wedding. And did anyone see his groomsmen? I haven't seen that many gay men since I went to see Margaret Cho in San Francisco.
Naysayers abound, but we'll bet Star Jones' marriage to Al Reynolds lasts at least two years. That's
because Jones got Reynolds to sign a prenup stating that if the unholy alliance goes south before
the two-year watermark, Reynolds gets nothing. Jones and Reynolds partied until the wee hours Sunday
morning at the Waldorf after their wedding Saturday night - Reynolds' second all-nighter of the
weekend. On Friday, he held his 'Roman Baths'-themed bachelor party at the Time Hotel. 'It was so
uncomfortable,' said our spy. 'You had to sign a confidentiality agreement to get in and then you
were sent to the penthouse, where they made you get naked.' All clothes were put into plastic bags
on the floor and the 60 men were given bathrobes to put on. 'We sat basically naked in a freezing
room for a couple of hours,' says an attendee. 'There were only two bars and they were sponsored by
Hypnotiq, Remy and some awful beer. At 11:50 p.m., 10 topless girls came out. They were butt-ugly
except for two of them who simulated lesbian sex on the bed. Ten people left immediately - it was
very uncomfortable.' - { pagesix.com}

Poor Ethan Hawke, he looks awful lately and no one is interested in him anymore. Come to think about it, who really cares about Uma either (besides being creeped out by that weird bf)?
Ethan Hawke has sparked speculation he's dating Julie Delpy, after being spotted on a romantic date with the French beauty.
The pair, co-stars in 'Before Sunrise' and 'Before Sunset,' were spotted enjoying a cosy lunch together at the trendy New York City eatery Le Gamin - with Hawke's 2-year-old son Roan in tow.
An onlooker says, 'They were whispering, locking eyes and grinning at each other. At one point, Julie tossed her head back and laughed flirtatiously at him.'
Once their lunch concluded, the trio untied Hawke's dog from the restaurant's bench and went for a stroll.
A source tells Us Weekly, 'They seemed happy. He put his arm around her.'
Both stars' representatives insist they're just friends. Hawke is currently estranged from wife Uma Thurman. - {the daily dish, sfgate.com}
Does Star have a weird fat-girl complex that she's marrying an obviously gay man?! I mean, come on! This guy isn't even on the down-low�.
Al Reynolds stayed away from other women Saturday night when he partied without his fiancee, Star
'Bridezilla' Jones, who's in Dallas with the crew from 'The View' � but he wasn't alone. Reynolds
went to a gay-friendly Halloween bash at Belluno on East 40th Street. 'Al was there as a male
stripper,' said our spy. 'He had on a tiny, tiny speedo with a white bathrobe over it � he has great
abs! He was there with some friends who were dressed as King Tut, a leatherman, a cop, a cowboy and
a pirate � they were all clearly gay. Some of them he knew from before Star, but he was getting to
know the others.' Reynolds introduced himself to our spy, who mistook him for Jones' makeup man.
Reynolds quickly corrected him and said, 'No. I'm marrying her.' One of Reynolds' entourage added:
'And he's very scared.' The speedo is a holdover from last year's Halloween party, where Reynolds
wore it as part of his Bam Bam costume. Jones' rep sent us a statement saying: 'Star and Al are
happily planning their wedding, which is less than a month away, and don't plan to entertain
anything that would rob them of their joy.' - { pagesix.com}

I don't think Seth & Summer are engaged, but I am REALLY excited for 'The OC' tonight.
The OC' stars and onscreen lovers Adam Brody and Rachel Bilson reportedly have secretly gotten
engaged in real life. Brody and Bilson play teenagers Seth Cohen and Summer Roberts respectively on
the hit TV show, which follows the tangled love lives of rich youngsters living in Orange County,
Calif. The onscreen couple have tried to hide their offscreen romance for as long as possible. In
addition to the engagement rumor, they also have been spied looking for a house together in Los
Angeles. A source at Fox television network says, 'They are both so much in love and want to settle
down together. 'Adam went down on bended knee in a very traditional way and they plan to get married
in the new year. It's the talk of the set, but they have been trying to keep it quiet.' - {the daily dish, sfgate.com}

I hope this isn't true.
Marcia Cross plays supermom Bree on the hit series 'Desperate Housewives'-but in real life, she
backed out of an adoption because she refused to sacrifice her career to be a stay-at-home
mom!DESPERATE That's the stunning charge of Jessica Ridner, 32, whose heart was broken in May when
the actress decided not to adopt her child-just as production was gearing up for the darkly humorous
ABC drama about the secret lives of suburban housewives. 'Marcia had promised me that she would be a
stay-athome mother to my baby, but it was all a big lie,' Jessica told The ENQUIRER. 'Two months
after she backed out, I saw promos on TV for 'Desperate Housewives.' Everything made sense. I
understood why Marcia changed her mind-she was working! 'Marcia had been planning to go back to
working long days, leaving my baby in the hands of nannies and hired caretakers-even though she knew
that wasn't what I wanted for my child. 'She had to have been filming the show while we were waiting
for the baby to be born. She outright lied to me, and I'm still very, very angry. 'I was giving up
my baby so he would have a better life, but she had no intention of being the kind of mother I
wanted for my baby.' The ENQUIRER first reported in June that never-married Marcia, 43, had
contracted to adopt Jessica's baby. But when the baby was born prematurely with some health
problems, Marcia allegedly got cold feet. The adoption was canceled. 'I was shocked,' said Jessica.
'Everything was set. Marcia had even picked out a name-Harrison. Marcia called me and said the
adoption was off. She said she didn't have time to come to Nebraska and be with the baby in the
hospital. 'I didn't understand how she could back away so coldly. What kind of mother can't take the
time to be with her sick child? But now I know. Her work came before her baby.' When contacted by
The ENQUIRER, Marcia's publicist refused to comment on the situation. Jessica named the baby boy
Nickolas Matthew-Nick Knack, for short. He weighed just 3 pounds, 4 ounces, but was breathing on his
own and doctors were optimistic that he would make it. Tragically, a week later, he died. 'Marcia
sent me $300 toward the funeral, but she didn't send flowers or even a card. And I never heard from
her again,' said Jessica. Jessica, a recently divorced single mother of five, works full-time in
client services for Hewlett Packard, but she'd much rather be home with her kids. 'I leave work, go
to the store and go home to cook for them and help them with their homework-all the things a real
mom does,' she said. 'I have no choice but to work. But Marcia, who has plenty of money, had
promised me that she'd be a homebody for at least the first few years of my baby's life. 'Obviously,
her words meant nothing.' The ENQUIRER has learned that the 'Desperate Housewives' star is still
hoping to adopt. 'A baby is still in her future plans,' Marcia's mother, Janet Cross, told The
ENQUIRER. 'Marcia's new show came at a good time, to distract her about what happened to the baby
she planned to adopt earlier this year. But Marcia still has her dream to become a mother.' - { NationalEnquirer.com}

Ok, I know I'm a week late - but does anyone really think these artists are performing 'live' on these shows? Maybe I'm jaded, but I usually only think it's live if it sounds like shit. And I'm sorry, I love Em - but what's the difference between a vocal track and lip synching? It's just a technicality.
Does any singer take the 'live' in 'Saturday Night Live' seriously? Just one week after Ashlee
Simpson lip-synched on the show, was found guilty of the same crime. 'He was singing 'Mosh' and you
could tell he was lip-synching,' said our source. 'The track was just a bit ahead of his lips and he
put the mike down at one point but the track kept going.' Eminem's rep said he was merely trying to
'duplicate the sound on his album. He had a vocal track on for double vocal effect [on the first
song], to make it more powerful. Lots of hip-hop artists do that. Tupac [Shakur] did it.' - { pagesix.com}
I definitely think this blind item is Queen Latifah. Lately I've been obsessing about how great her PR people must be. I mean, how many actresses do you know who get busted for pot possession and a DUI and still manage to get an Oscar nom? I mean, it's not like these indiscretions happened a long time ago. She's got deals with Pizza Hut and Cover Girl, she's America's newest sweetheart! Something's fishy - and it's not just rumors about her preferred partners.
Adored Ava has it all-fame, wealth, sex partners, big boobs. She also has quite the past, including
sex with heaps of men, women, tools, tiaras, you shocked-to-the-hilt name it! Sounds exhausting, but
whatever; let's get on with the rubbed-raw goods, shall we? A2, one of those multitalented,
multicareered types, has been raking in the cashola as of late. Deals out the wazoo trading on her
famous-and infamous-past. But turns out people have no idea just how peppery that personal history
is. Orgies weren't-and aren't-an uncommon occurrence in Ava's life. And certain journalists know
exactly what makes Ms. Adored roar. That's why they've got a deal. A deal for A.A. to cooperate with
them on a regular basis. Otherwise? The grimy goods get printed-every last drop of unsafe and
unsanitary to-do. They know it. Ava knows it. - {the awful truth, eonline.com}

Hey there, gossip lovers! I have a few confessions to make. First, as it turns out, not only do I
feel sorry for Jennifer Lopez, but I actually LIKE Ben Affleck. He's just so damn likeable, even
when he's lame. Have you seen him on SNL? Second, I'm totally addicted to morning reality show,
'Starting Over.' And finally, I'm having an increasingly harder time keeping up with this
newsletter. I don't want to stop, but I'm going to have to cut back to sending it out every other
week. The up-side of this is that I can actually devote time to making it better; the down-side is
that it won't be as timely.
Please feel free to email me and let me know what you think of any of these startling confessions.

I wonder if Gwen would be mad if she knew that a friend of a friend of a friend of mine slept with Gavin while they were engaged?!
Gwen Stefani is devastated after discovering that her husband Gavin Rossdale has a teenage
lovechild. British newspaper the Daily Mirror reports that a DNA test has proved that the Bush
singer, 38, is the father of his goddaughter 15-year-old model Daisy Lowe after a brief fling with
her fashion designer mother Pearl, 33. An insider told the newspaper, 'Pearl has always wondered if
Gavin is Daisy's father. Both she and Daisy felt they deserved to know the truth so they decided to
find out. It was never about getting Gavin's money or anything like that. It was about finding
Daisy's real dad.' Following a series of legal letters, the Everything Zen singer agreed to take a
DNA test and Pearl discovered the results last week. The source continued, 'Even though she had

really occurred to her in the last six months that Gavin could actually be Daisy's dad. They only
had a very brief fling way back when. 'Gavin was reluctant to do the test as he didn't think he was
Daisy's dad. They were good friends but it has all become slightly awkward now.' Pearl confirmed the

Kirsten attempts to cleanse herself after associating with scummy Rick Salomon, but I don't think it will last.
Hollywood hunk Jake Gyllenhaal and his actress ex Kirsten Dunst are back together again - only five
months after splitting. Jake's sister Maggie - who co-starred with Dunst in 'Mona Lisa Smile' -
introduced the handsome couple in 2002 and they dated for two years before splitting in June. The
forthcoming issue of American magazine U.S. Weekly has exclusive pictures of the reunited pair in
Los Angeles, who were spotted kissing in a car last Tuesday. And according to gossip site

Is it just me or is something weird about this story? Eminem's uncle killed himself because the Sheriff's dog was bothering him? What?!? What bothers ME is that Eminem is said to be dating Kim again. Sigh!
Eminem is inconsolable after discovering the uncle he called 'dad' killed himself. The rap star's
real father deserted him when he was a baby so he was raised by Todd Nelson, who shot himself in the
head, allegedly because he was being terrorized by a sheriff's rottweiler. Nelson is Eminem's second
close relative to kill himself - the hip-hop artist's other uncle, Ronnie Mathers, killed himself
last year following a traumatic break-up. A family friend explains, 'This news has hit him hard. It
will bring back all the memories of losing Ronnie. To lose two uncles at such a young age is
terribly sad, especially as his father has never been around. The fact they both committed suicide
is so tragic.' Eminem's grandmother tells Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper, 'Todd had been upset
about a rottweiler owned by a local sheriff who was causing problems for his family. The dog scared
his girlfriend's son and scratched their car. 'But when he complained to police, they wouldn't do
anything about it. He shot himself in his car in his own backyard. My grandson, Todd Jr., found his
body.' - {the daily dish, sfgate.com}

as much as i want to believe this about paris because i'm sooo sick of her, i have a hard time believing anything oily bo-hunk, brandon davis, says. hollywood oil heir brandon davis just poured gasoline on the paris hilton n-word furor, claiming that hilton regularly uses the racial slur as well as slurs against other minorities. davis, an old friend of hilton who had a falling out with her this year, came forward after it was reported that hilton used the n-word in a scene caught on videotape. hilton later issued a statement saying, 'anyone who knows me knows that this is not me. i love everybody and am not a person who discriminates against anyone � ever.' but davis tells this week's national enquirer: 'not true. she was forever using the 'n-word.' i told her not to use it. it was offensive. but she just laughed. she is a racist, plus an idiot. every black person she referred to was a 'n- - - - -.' ' davis, the grandson of recently deceased oil billionaire and movie mogul marvin davis and boyfriend of 'o.c.' starlet mischa barton, continued, 'she uses the word all the time, and i've known her all of her life. it's 'n- - - - - this' and 'n- - - - - that.' she's a disgrace. she is a racist! 'she puts down jews and other minorities, too. and i'm jewish. i found it depressing . . . i finally had enough of her attitude six months ago, and i finished with her. i don't want anything to do with her. i don't need anything from her. she is no longer my friend. she's just not a nice person.' davis said that he never heard hilton use racist language around her best friend and 'simple life' co-star nicole richie, who is black. 'i know nicole,' davis said. 'she is a very good person.' hilton's publicist said the hotel heiress was on a plane yesterday and could not be reached. we also left a detailed message for richie's rep to see if nicole wanted to defend her friend against davis' charges, but we didn't hear back. - { pagesix.com}

someone better call the wah-bulance for michael vartan! i'm told by alias sources that the chair setup has always been pretty much the same. everybody has one of those fab director's chairs with their name on it (hooray for modern-day hollywood!), and they're all together in a row-standard stuff. this, i'm told, is no longer the case. last week, mr. vartan's seat was moved far, far away-like 25-30 yards-and around the corner. he's in a hallway, all by himself. oh, okay, they tossed in a minion to accompany him to siberia, too kind. jen, natch, stayed put. whether this seating switcheroo was at vartan's request (or hers), i do not know. 'i just checked,' a helpful alias exec type informed me. 'and michael's chair is a little distance from the others, but it's insignificant.' oh, really? a rep for vartan had this to say: 'i'm not aware of any chairs being moved.' so, gosh, shall we guess who'll get killed off at the end in a grisly fashion? now, i should tell you that certain alias vets are starting to wonder if everyone's getting killed off sooner than later. still, many sources are agreed on this: 'vartan's head is definitely on the block,' pooped a single, solitary insider who regularly inhales vartan's secondhand smoke. oops! i did it again-gave away something i wasn't supposed to! that's right. mr. v. has been hittin' the death sticks again. i can hardly find fault, as i used to smoke three packs a day. hopefully, he'll see what a damn hunk he is and stop killin' himself-soon. but i ain't his ma. i wonder if the return o' the bad habit has something to do with j.g. being a health nut 'n' all? you know ms. g. goes mental over smoking, doncha? sure mikey just forgot about that little personal no-nic rule, doncha agree? garner's reaction?

well, it looks like the 'real' britney & kevin wedding is happening next week october 16th. sources say that they have the entire four seasons on the big island in hawaii booked. i, for one, am thrilled! i have no doubt the wedding will be over the top with trash, but it's the kind of trash we love in the old britney - not the new, dirty feet britney. |
speaking of trash, i'm so into tv right now! just when i thought i didn't have room for any new shows i go and add a shitload. here are my favorites this fall:
veronica mars veronica lives in neptune, ca where you're either rich or work for the rich people. her dad was the sheriff, therefore even though her family wasn't rich, she had some cred. last year veronica was dating the most popular boy in school and was best friends with his sister. she was the 'in' crowd. but then the best friend ends up murdered and veronica's father, the sheriff, accuses the dead girl's father (who is the most powerful man in neptune) of being involved. veronica's dad gets fired, she and her boyfriend break up, her mom leaves town and veronica is now a social pariah. a private eye social pariah! veronica's dad starts his own private investigation firm and veronica helps him with his cases. however, the more involved veronica becomes with her dad's work the more she realizes that there's one big case that he's not letting her in on he's still working on the case to find veronica's best friend's murderer. 'veronica mars' is a little like 'pretty in pink 'or 'some kind of wonderful ' meets 'buffy.' hmmm...when i put it like that it sounds like it would kinda suck - but it doesn't! it's on tuesday nights on upn. check it out!
america's next top model this is the best reality show out there. insecure, bitchy models duking it out all while being critiqued by janice dickson, 'the first supermodel!' how could you possible resist?!
wife swap this show is priceless abc picks women who are complete opposites to trade places for a week. there are lots of fights, bratty kids, and gross husbands. my own husband almost can't watch this show because it makes him so uncomfortable, so i'll recommend this one with a warning that it might not be suitable for everyone.
desperate housewives despite the annoying promos running constantly on abc, i decided i just had to give this one a try. i love felicity huffman!! i thought the pilot was good. but what up with nicolette sheridan's face??!! she looked a little joan rivers-esque. and did you know that the 'supermodel' wife (eva something-or-other) is dating jc chasez?! so gross. i'm hoping i can get over the little things to love this show.
there are more, but i'll just start you out with those. seriously though, set your tivo for 'veronica mars.' and don't forget to check out 'life as we know it' on abc tonight i have a good 'my so-called life' feeling about it!

what is it with paris and the video camera? i really need to know! paris hilton is fighting off accusations she made racist comments at a new york party. last week, american newspaper new pork post reported that in a recently surfaced 12-hour videotape, hilton is shown speaking with two african-american men, who ask her if she would model their fashion line. the publication reported that hilton, standing with pal brandon davis, was polite to the men, but called them 'dumb n*****s' after they left, according to british reporter carole aye maung, who reviewing the alleged tape. maung says, 'two... guys begin talking to her. she's being very, very sweet to them. (but) she definitely uses the n-word. it's so cruel, because they were so lovely, and she was being so lovely to them. ' but furious hilton hits back, 'anyone who knows me knows that this is not me. i am deeply hurt by recent reports. i am not a person who discriminates against anyone - ever. ' hilton's best pal nicole richie adds, 'she doesn't have a prejudiced bone in her body. ' according to maung, the tape also includes footage of hilton 'making love' with ex-boyfriend nick carter in the back of a car and greeting one-time boyfriend jason shaw in the nude. - {the daily dish, sfgate.com}

'he's tried a couple of things before, but nothing has worked,' says the insider. 'we're hopeful this time.' 'it's working,' damon's rep happily told the scoop.

But seriously, did anything really
happen? So Brit got married to her pimp - who cares?! I think the best part of the whole thing is
that they had a CASH BAR. She's worth over $100 million and she can't afford to buy 20 people
drinks? Oh and let's not forget that their song was Journey's 'Lights' and it played on a boom box.
First of all, what in the hell does San Francisco have to do with their romance? And secondly no

the only other thing we missed dishing about was the emmy's!
I thought Joely Richardson (of my absolute fave show 'nip/tuck') was the best dressed woman there.
And I thought the best dressed man was my very own friend, Jens! Jens even made E!'s 'Fashion
Police!' Ok, so he was shown standing behind William Shatner, who they panned as 'worst dressed,'
but still! It's the big time, baby!

Could it be that a sitcom star wasn't in much of a rush to head home? So say my pals at the
Governor's Ball who tell me that the married-with-child chunk was enjoying his liquor and wanted to
take libido out for a spin on the homo side. It might have been bad enough when he started telling
anyone who'd listen that it had been a while since he'd 'had some', but when he resorted to using
his character's pick-up lines on virtually anyone who walked by (including some Emmy staff members),
it was downright embarrassing. Just goes to show that when it comes right down to it, even someone
who brings you coffee can be there for you if you wait around long enough. (Filth2go.com)

finally, an explanation for those get-ups!
Sexy 'Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow' co-star Bai Ling says her stay in a mental hospital
made her a better actress - but she's still haunted by voices in her head. 'I hear eight separate
voices,' Ling says. 'I have given them each names and I have to shout out to them sometimes to shut
up. Sometimes they tell me that they don't like living in New York. But they are my friends although
sometimes I say, 'You are too demanding.' They are like spirits.' In a rambling chat with PAGE SIX,
Ling added, 'I am writing a book called 'A Clock Falling From the Sky and Dreams of Tibet' about my
experience starting when at 14 I was in the Chinese Liberation Army in Tibet for three years as an
actress teaching Chinese values to Tibetans.' Ling, who plays a henchwoman of the mysterious Dr.
Totenkopf in the sci-fi box-office smash 'Sky Captain,' continued: 'I was damaged by what I did in
Tibet, it was twisted. My time there was very sexual, but also innocent and sad. I was with all
these older men, falling in love many times, which was forbidden and I was punished for it. Then I
wanted to kill myself because I felt that life had become meaningless. I was in a dark place and I
was lost. 'So I went into a mental hospital where they gave me electric shock treatment close to a
hundred times. After I got the shock treatment I would stand in one place for the whole day without
moving. They gave me medicine every day so that I was numb all the time. It was like a prison...I
would have these horrible nightmares of being eaten by tigers, leopards and jaguars. 'I had those
nightmares for years afterwards until one day I realized that in another life I had been a leopard
myself and then the nightmares stopped. That was because I hunted a leopard in South Africa and when
I saw the leopard, I realized then that I had once been a leopard because they say that the leopard
only lets you see it if it wants to be seen. 'I felt like I was connected to that leopard but I am
now in a human form. I can feel that wild side when I am dancing. I got out of the mental hospital
when I was 17 by telling the doctors that I was an actress and I was just pretending that I wanted
to kill myself and that I wasn't really sick. I became a great actress because I had to be to get
out of that hospital.' - { pagesix.com}

these girls are so much better than paris hilton!
jenna and barbara bush lived up to their hard-partying reputation while
in new york supporting their pop, president bush, during the republican
convention, according to our spies around town. the twosome kicked off a
week of fun last saturday at chelsea hot spot 17, where, we're told,
they partied with a group of 20 guests till the early hours. 'jenna
seemed more wild than barbara,' said a witness. 'they probably got
through about three bottles of level vodka, and they were given a tour
of the club by management.' the conservative cuties' next big night was
wednesday at sixth avenue nightclub avalon, where they were in the crowd
smoking cigarettes and pumping their fists to kid rock, who was
performing on stage. 'they [and their entourage of about 25] drank
$4,500 dollars worth of drinks bottles and bottles of vodka,' says a
club insider. 'then, having been comped all the alcohol, they left a $48
tip. we thought 1 per cent was kind of outrageous, considering they are
the president's daughters.' on thursday night, after the president gave
his big speech at madison square garden, jenna was out again returning
to 17 for more good times. a spy told page six's tom sykes that jenna
showed around 3 a.m. with a group of up to 50 people: 'she was dancing
around the club with a group of rather attractive fashion industry-type
girls and another six or seven men who were either young republicans or
secret service,' says a source who was with the party. 'there was one
particular, really preppy-looking guy who she was dancing with the whole
time who looked like he might be her boyfriend,' our source said. 'at
4:15 a.m., they closed the club and ushered jenna and her posse upstairs
to a suite where there was a private open bar and big red pool table.
jenna's friends played 8-ball quite poorly. 'the elevator was broken, so
we all had to walk up the stairs. she kicked off her heels and wandered
around the space barefooted. around 5:30, the staff started losing their
patience and finally sent everyone home.'there was no repeat of the
poor tipping that the avalon staff experienced. a 17 club staffer said,
'yes, they were here, but they were actually great to the staff and
tipped big. in fact, they even called on friday to say thanks for a
great night, so we are hoping to see them again.' - { pagesix.com}

the couple was merely arguing over their new house not breaking up.
