SASSY SCALE: This sassy diet scale doesn’t tell you how much you weigh, but it does tell you what you should be eating. So, if one day you’re instructed to eat “one piece of lettuce” and end up shedding a few pounds by the next day, which lets you eat a “deep fried pork loin,” won’t you just be back to lettuce the next day? Guess it would balance itself out.

RED WINE KEEPS YOU THIN

For all the wine lovers out there (I included), here’s the best news you could possibly hear. A new, long-term study says that people who drink red wine in moderation stay thinner into middle age. Woo hoo! Now there’s finally a legit reason to pop the cork on a daily basis.

Of the 20,000 women that participated in this study, the red wine drinkers consistently put on less weight than the women who drank white wine, beer, liquor, or no alcohol at all. Why? The theory is that the body processes calories from alcohol differently from calories from food. The livers of regular red wine drinkers develop a separate method of breaking down alcohol, where surplus energy is turned into heat rather than fat. So those calories from your glass of Pinot Noir will get burned off while the calories from your slice of pizza will go directly to your butt.

If you weren’t already excited to go out and buy a bottle of liquid dinner, studies also show that red wine can prevent blood clots and heart disease and extend your life expectancy. Cheers to that!

Drink Up, People!

FOUR PARTYING/DRINKING MYTHS BUSTED

Speaking of alcohol, your Saturday night party habits may not be as safe as you thought. A few common but ugly rumors may be giving you a false sense of safety and putting you at major risk.

Marie Claire is setting the record straight, so the next time you hit the bars you can think twice about ordering that extra vodka Red Bull.

1. HOOKAHS ARE SAFER THAN CIGARETTES. First of all, “Hookah” is not slang for Hooker. A Hookah is a water pipe used to smoke tobacco. Anyway, the myth is false. A typical hookah session lasts 45 minutes, so you’re exposed to at least 50 times more smoke than if you lit one cigarette. Plus, “water-pipe smoke contains about eight times the carbon monoxide, nearly two times the nicotine, and 36 times the tar of a cigarette.

2. YOU CANCEL OUT THE EFFECTS OF PARTYING IF YOU “PRE-TOX” DURING THE WEEK. False. One drink a day can be good for you (as we shared above about red wine), but if you skip Wednesday and Thursday, that doesn’t mean you can have three drinks on Friday and toast to your health. Your body (namely, your liver) can’t handle so much alcohol at once, even if you didn’t drink for a few days beforehand.

3. DIET SODA MIXERS GET YOU WASTED FASTER. True (who knew?!). Recent research found that alcohol mixed with diet soda resulted in higher blood-alcohol concentrations than when the alcohol was mixed with regular soda. Researchers think sugar may slow the absorption of alcohol.

4. MIXING RED BULL AND LIQUOR LETS YOU PARTY LONGER. True (of course it is!). Red Bull and other caffeinated drinks let you party longer — but not smarter. They make you feel like you’re alert but don’t reduce the real effects of alcohol, including slower physical and visual reactions. And be extra careful: They can make you think you can drive when you’re actually seriously impaired.

10 WAYS TO GET MORE SLEEP AND LOSE WEIGHT IN THE PROCESS

In honor of National Sleep Awareness week (3/7 – 3/13) Dr. Mark Hooper, founder of My Ideal Pillow, offers some advice: He says two appetite-controlling hormones are adversely affected by loss of sleep. Hence, less sleep equals more pounds. So…why not kill two birds with one stone: get some rest and curb extra eating–just by using a few simple tactics. Here, some practical strategies to help us all get some sleep.

• Change your bedtime to an earlier one.

• Switch bedtimes with your partner: You retire early one night and get up for the first feeding while he gets the baby to sleep—and then switch the following night.

• Avoid caffeine from mid-afternoon on.

• Create a sleep-friendly bedroom (cool, dark, quiet, and comfortable).

• Take a shower every morning. One mom’s brilliant, if not scientific, opinion is that a hot shower can equal two hours of sleep!

• Nap, especially on the weekends. There is truth to the phrase “catch up on sleep”

• Let the sunlight in during the day. Even if you can’t physically make it outside, having the blinds open to let in the sun can refresh the mind and promote a better night’s sleep.

• Create a worry journal to write your worries down before you sleep.

• Hire help for a few hours after you get home from work to alleviate the “after work” stress.

• Consider a meal service for a few days each week. (because we all have a ton of extra $$ in this economy, right?)

SHOULD I TELL MY BOYFRIEND I’M PREGNANT?

Woman thinks she’s pregnant and doesn’t know if she should tell her boyfriend because she’s not 100% sure she’s preggers… “I am a 20-year-old college student who is in a really strong relationship with a great guy. Lately I have been feeling extra tired, extra hungry, and my boobs have been extra sensitive. I feel like there is a chance that I’m pregnant, but it is definitely too soon to tell.

I’m struggling with whether or not to tell my boyfriend. My inner feminist is telling me to let him know, because it takes two to get pregnant, and I shouldn’t go through this alone. Another part of me says that I should suffer in silence rather than cause potentially unwarranted chaos, and wait until I know for sure. What do you think?”

FARRAH FAWCETT WAS PURPOSELY LEFT OUT OF OSCARS MEMORIAL

Eyebrows were raised when Farrah Fawcett failed to appear alongside Patrick Swayze, Michael Jackson, and other memorable celebrity deaths from 2009 at this past weekend’s Oscars tribute to the late entertainers. It was originally thought to be a negligent oversight, but it’s since been revealed that Fawcett was purposely not included in the footage.

Leslie Unger, who servers as the spokeswoman for the Academy, addressed the situation on Monday, saying, “Every year, it’s an unfortunate reality that we can’t include everybody. I would not say that it was an oversight. No matter how carefully and how conscientiously people address who is included, there are people who just simply can’t be.”

You can’t include Farrah Fawcett?! One of the original Charlie’s Angels?!?!

Fawcett’s longtime love Ryan O’Neal isn’t happy with the Academy’s vague explanation, and says that he and others were “stunned at the decision not to include her in the tribute.” O’Neal also said he thinks the Academy “should be scolded for that.”

BAD ACADEMY!!!

“Golden Girl” Bea Arthur was another missing from the memorial roster, by the way, which avid fans of the 80s sitcom have fussed about. Ed McMahon was also left out.

MILEY CYRUS IS DEEPER THAN YOU AND ME

Miley Cyrus covers the April 2010 issue of “Teen Vogue,” and given her interview inside, seems to think she’s a few notches above the rest of us. The Disney tween queen waxed poetic on her relationship with Liam Hemsworth, who she met while filming “The Last Song.”

According to Miley, she and her beau from down under are on a much different level than the other people wandering around this great green earth. “I think we’re both deeper than normal people – what they think and how they feel. He’s very grateful for what he has, but he doesn’t let it go to his head. I’m like that, too.”

(Ironically enough, the article at the bottom of the cover was entitled “Ego Trip.” I’d say Little Miss Miley is on a bit of one.)

The one good piece of news in the article was that Hannah Montana will refrain from making music for a while after she finishes recording the album she’s working on. For when Cyrus makes “music that doesn’t truly inspire [her], the more [she] feels like [she's] blending in with everyone else.” Dear Lord, we certainly can’t have that! A quick fix for such a dire situation? “After this next album, I’m taking some time off.”

My ears thank you, Miley. You get out there and be exceptionally deep with your boyfriend for as long as you want to be!

BEASTIE BOY CONQUERS CANCER, UTILIZES GOD-GIVEN RIGHT TO PARTY

Last year, the stunning news came that Beastie Boy Adam “MCA” Yauch was stricken with cancer. The discovery was made when doctors found a tumor on one of his salivary glands. After catching the tumor early, though, and engaging in rounds of preliminary treatments, it seems that Yauch is in full remission, and more than anxious to get back to work with the rest of the group.

Yauch posted a message on the Beastie Boys’ website, saying that they were now ready to resume working on “Hot Sauce Committee, Part 1,” a project that was put on indefinite hiatus after Yauch’s tragic diagnosis. “It was really disappointing to have to hold the record and postpone the tour, but doctor’s orders,” Adam said. “We may or may not [release the album] depending on how my health is come September.

Yauch has admitted to, understandably, lacking the energy necessary to meet the demands of a touring schedule, but says that he is slowly and surely regaining strength and hopes to return to normal sooner than later.

JACK FROM TV’S “WILL AND GRACE” SORT OF COMES OUT OF THE CLOSET OFFSCREEN

“Will and Grace” actor Sean Hayes is, after years of speculation and rumors, discussing his personal sexuality in the most recent issue of “The Advocate.” And while Hayes doesn’t exactly say that he’s gay, he certainly doesn’t say that he’s not.

“I am who I am. I was never in, as they say. Never.”

Throughout the interview, Hayes dropped several jokes referencing homosexuality in general, all not-so-subtle hints as to his sexual preference outside of his most well-known character.

Sean also targeted the media for being critical of actors and actresses who aren’t forthcoming with their sexual preferences. Hayes told “The Advocate,” “I believe that nobody owes anything to anybody…you are your authentic self to whom and when you choose to be, and if you don’t know somebody, then why would you explain to them how you life your life?”

In recent years, actors like “Grey’s Anatomy’s” T.R. Knight and “How I Met Your Mother’s” Neil Patrick Harris were forced out of the closet after being outed in tabloids. Afterwards came the inevitable barrage of articles finding fault with them for “hiding who they were.”

Openly gay actor Rupert Everett recently said in an interview that people in Hollywood should strive to hide the fact they ARE homosexual, given the way their careers can often be drastically altered for the worst once the revelation is made.

Sean Hayes, by the way, is making his way to Broadway and is preparing to start in a revival of the 60s musical “Promises, Promises.”

MATT KEMP AND RIHANNA SAY THEY’RE “JUST FRIENDS” . . . WE CALL B.S.

Singer Rihanna and Dodgers player Matt Kemp keep insisting that they’re just friends, even as Kemp threw an elaborate party for RiRi for her birthday, and even as they continue to spend every waking moment out and about, tangled up in one another’s arms. Rihanna, in fact, just flew into Arizona from BERLIN this past Saturday, just so that she could meet Kemp’s family, as well as attend her boo’s Ante Up for Autism charity bash.

Kemp’s brother, fyi, is autistic.

Witnesses who were on-hand for the first exchange of niceties between Rihanna and Kemp’s family said that nothing seemed awkward, and that the R&B star seemed very comfortable among her man’s kin.

As for Kemp’s charity event, there were only 150 attendees and they still managed to raise a whopping $170,000 at the gala.

Rihanna will next be seen at the Kid’s Choice Awards on March 27th, which she’s scheduled to perform for.

“DOUBLE SHOT OF LOVE” TWIN REMOVED FROM MEDICAL COMA

Erica “Rikki” and Victoria “Vikki” Mongeon were in a car wreck last week that resulted in Rikki being put into a medically induced coma while doctors waited the swelling in her brain out. After one scare in which they tried to pull her out of the coma, only to discover that the swelling didn’t reduce as they hoped it would, Rikki is said to now be off all of the tubes and breathing with only the assistance of an oxygen mask. Sources close to the family say that she’s stable for the moment.

News is still scarce on the exact condition of the less fortunate twin, but insiders seem hopeful that a full recovery is forthcoming.

Rikki’s sister, Vikki, has been a constant by her twin sister’s side throughout this ordeal, leaving the hospital only to do brief, vague interviews, updating fans on her sis’s condition.

ENGLISH PRODUCER IN THE HAT TO REPLACE SIMON COWELL

Simon Cowell is abandoning “American Idol” at the end of the season to take over an Americanized version of his hit UK singing competition “The X Factor,” and Fox is scrambling to fill his judge’s seat before the 2011 season begins. English producer Steve Lillywhite, who has worked with huge names like U2, Talking Heads, Dave Matthews Band and Psychedelic Furs, will plop his privileged little tush dow in Simon’s chair before it even gets cold, if he has his way.

Lillywhite is campaigning via YouTube, joking that he’s spent “30 years telling Bono what to do,” which undoubtedly means that he can be “firm!”

At this point, any replacement is better than Perez Hilton, who is also vying for the job.

BARBARA WALTERS THINKS SHE DESTROYED RICKY MARTIN’S CAREER

Barbara Walters hosted her final Oscars interview special this year, telling the audience of “The View” that, at this point, she more or less feels like she’s “been there, done that.”

Still, throughout the years, she’s asked the challenging questions nobody else wanted to ask, and she’s gone places nobody else had the nerve to go. Sometimes, she went TOO FAR, in her opinion.

Walters told the “Toronto Star” that she feels personally responsible for the demise of Latino singer Ricky Martin’s career after her interview with him in 2000.

“I pushed Ricky Martin very hard to admit if he was gay or not, and the way he refused to do it made everyone decide that he was,” Walters said. “A lot of people say that destroyed his career, and when I think back on it now I feel it was an inappropriate question.”

You might want to get together and discuss this with Sean Hayes, Bawbwa!

SINGER D’ANGELO ARRESTED FOR TRYING TO BUY SEX

My, how the mighty fall. 90s singer and hitmaker D’Angelo was arrested over the weekend after soliciting an undercover policewoman for oral sex. The 34-year-old offered her $40 to see how many licks it took to get to the center of his tootsie roll. Upon investigation, authorities also discovered that he had wads of cash in his vehicle, totaling up to $12,000.

Despite the odds stacking up against him, D’Angelo says that he plans to plead not guilty, and that he hopes “the public will allow the American justice system to resolve the matter before jumping to any conclusions.”

So, you know, be sure you thoroughly consider ALL OF THE OPTIONS when you start judging him for tossing two twenties at a woman he though he was a prostitute while unzipping his fly. I’m sure there’s a really solid story there that has NOTHING to do with sex.

TIDBITS

The weekend box office was ruled by “Alice in Wonderland,” which we all knew it would be. The new Tim Burton film, starring Johnny Depp, took in $116.1 million. The film is an updated, bizarre and twisted take on the Lewis Carroll classic.

Lil Wayne finally made it to the big house. The rapper was sentenced to criminal court for a year yesterday after being caught with a loaded gun on his tour bus back in 2007. His time will be reduced to eight months, pending good behavior. His lawyer says that he’ll continue to make music while behind bars.

It’s the news we’ve all been waiting to hear: Betty White has confirmed that she’ll make an appearance on an upcoming episode of “Saturday Night Live.” The former “Golden Girl” let the news slip at the 18th Annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Award Viewing Party Sunday evening, but didn’t outline the details of her appearance. Word is that she’ll be part of a “Women of Comedy” special, which will also include appearances from Tina Fey and Molly Shannon. (Lorne Michaels has denied those reports.)

Marie Osmond said goodbye to her son, Michael Bryan, at his funeral yesterday. Marie said at the ceremony, “I’m proud of my son and I honor his birth mother who’s here today who gave me the greatest gift. Thank you for those beautiful 18 years.” (Michael’s biological mother was reportedly in attendance.) Marie’s son took his own life just a couple of weeks ago by jumping out of his 8th story apartment in L.A.

Kathy Ireland’s poor showing on the Oscars’ red carpet left people wondering if perhaps her robotic speech and slow reactions indicated some sort of struggle with substance abuse. The model says that she wasn’t drunk, nor was she high – but instead, very excited to be there. Ireland tweeted, “So many misunderstood that that J.O.Y. was being invited to co host!”

ARE YOU A SEX ADDICT? FIND OUT BELOW…

We’ve heard A LOT about sex addiction these days, thanks to the smiley Tiger Woods. Ever wonder if maybe you are (or someone know is) a sex addict? According to the Society for the Advancement of Sexual Health, an estimated 3 to 5 percent of Americans could fall in the category of having an addiction to sex.

Here are some general ways to know you might have crossed the line from healthy sexual interest to sexual addiction or compulsion:

1. You lie – This is the No. 1 way you know you’ve crossed the line: when you make up stories to get sex. If you lie with women to get them to have sex with you, you’re a predator and an addict.

2. Sex consumes you – If your interest in sex runs your life, you have a problem. Addicts are always preoccupied with hitting on someone, or picking someone up, or getting home to look at porn before their spouse comes home.

3. You’re “divorced, dead, fired or arrested” – If you continue your sexual activities even under threat of being “divorced, dead, fired or arrested,” you’re an addict. You ignore the consequences, knowing you could really screw yourself you, but you continue to do it anyway.

4. You have an intense interest in pornography – The pornography piece of this cannot be overstated. If you’re having sex with three different people in one week, and chances are you have a strong relationship with pornography.

5. You want to stop and you can’t – Sexual addiction is defined by a loss of control.

DO YOU SHARE YOUR PASSWORDS WITH YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER? IF SO, YOU MAY WANT TO RE-THINK IT

Jessica Zamora-Anderson and Paul Franco of Queens, New York, hardly had the ideal relationship. They met on Facebook in 2008 and were reasonably happy, until a year later when a screaming match ended with Paul chucking a cell phone at his girlfriend’s head. Soon after, Paul let Jessica know that he’d taken video footage of them doing the deed and he wasn’t afraid to make it public—so when he demanded $185 to get his towed car released from an impound lot, she paid up.

Fast forward to a few weeks ago, when Jessica tried to log into her Facebook page and her password was denied. She quickly realized that Paul had hijacked her account, changed her sexual preference to “gay,” and was writing her friends and family members and doing updates, posing as her. She contacted him, and he said he’d give her the account back – if she paid him $390. Which seems like a pretty random number, right? Anyway, we’re pretty amused that instead of paying up, Jessica went to the police. Paul is now facing charges of coercion and harassment. Just another reminder to NEVER share your password with anyone. Oh, and to not date psycho douchebags. More info on the story in the link below.

CALIFORNIA PASSES RESOLUTION FOR “CUSS FREE WEEK”

Californians had better start watching their mouths. The state Assembly passed a resolution yesterday that would establish the first week of March as “Cuss Free Week” throughout the state. If approved by the Senate next week, the measure would take effect immediately.

The resolution includes no enforcement mechanism and is simply meant to promote greater harmony and connectedness, said Assemblyman Anthony Portantino, a Democrat from La Canada Flintridge and co-author of the measure. “I’ve always wondered why we behave differently when grandma is watching than when we’re on our own,” said Portantino, who owned up to his share of four-letter words.

Portantino said the California Legislature, known for imposing strict clean air and clean water laws, is the first state legislative body in the nation to consider a statewide profanity-free week.

The resolution was inspired by a South Pasadena teenager, McKay Hatch, who started a No Cussing Club at his junior high school in 2007. Similar clubs have since cropped up in every state and 20 countries. Hatch, who traveled to Sacramento with his family to support the resolution, said he sees a link between foul-mouthed incivility and other forms of problem behavior, such as drug use and bullying. Next up for the 16-year-old? Promoting no-cussing measures in other states and internationally. “Next year I want to do a world tour,” he said. “Cussing is a hard habit to break, but anyone can do it.” – Stupid f*cking kid! Little son of a b*tch obviously doesn’t have a f*cking life and and the d*ckhead wants to impose his sh*tty beliefs on everyone else. The little f*cker needs to get his as* kicked!!! (just kidding, of course)

I DON’T WANT TO INVITE MY BROTHER’S OBNOXIOUS FIANCÉE TO MY GRADUATION PARTY

Girl is graduation from college this spring and doesn’t want to invite her brother’s fiancée to her grad party because she hates her. She’s at a loss as what to do, because she doesn’t want to piss her brother off… “I’m graduating from college in June. I’ve had a lot of setbacks and ups and downs that I had to deal with in order to get to where I am now, so I’m planning a party to celebrate my accomplishment. The problem is I do not want my older brother’s fiancée to attend. We do not get along and have a mutual understanding to keep out of each other’s way. The times that we do have to be around each other she always has something negative to say or a backhanded comment; and I just don’t want to be around that at my party.

I have tried being nice to her, but after she insulted our mother and disrespected me, I’ve given up on that route. She has constantly manipulated my brother into canceling plans that he and I have, causing us not to be as close as we once were (we barely talk now). I have a feeling that she’ll want to come just to make a good impression on our family (which has nothing to do with me or my party). As I prepare to send out invitations, I was wondering if I should just invite my brother (even though we aren’t very close) or should I invite him and his fiancée? If I just invite my brother; how can I tell him and/or her that I would rather she not come? I should also mention that the party I’m planning is a small one with just close friends and family, and since she is neither (yet) I do not feel the need to invite her. Help!”

80′S TV ACTOR ANDREW KOENIG FOUND DEAD IN VANCOUVER PARK

Friends of Andrew Koenig, who had formed their own search party, discovered the 41-year-old actor’s body in a Vancouver park, authorities confirmed last night. Koenig once lived in Vancouver and his friends knew that he enjoyed the city’s Standley Park when he was a resident.

Andrew’s father, Walter Koenig, also an actor known for his role as Chekov on the original Star Trek series, made a public statement. “Our son took his own life,” Koenig said. “He was obviously in a lot of pain.”

The former “Growing Pains” actor, who played “Boner” alongside Kirk Cameron’s character, was suffering from clinical depression at the time of his disappearance well over a week ago. His family, Kirk Cameron, and numerous others had extended pleas via the media in an effort to locate him. Despite friends of his saying that he gave away his belongings, turned off his phone and cleaned out his apartment prior to his disappearance, authorities maintained up until yesterday that they were still seeking a “living person,” since there had been Koenig sightings in the area as recently as the week of the 14th.

BRITTANY MURPHY’S CORONER REPORT REVEALED

The official Coroner’s report for Brittany Murphy has dispelled every rumor that was floating arond about her…she wasn’t abusing drugs, she wasn’t abusing alcohol, and despite the rumors that she was severely underweight, she wasn’t dangerously thin at all.

What the report did show is that she had some elevated levels of Vicodin in her system as well as some over the counter allergy and drug meds, but there was nothing that indicated she’d ingested any illegal substances recently. As for her weight, the report reads, “The overall appearance of the body is consistent with the reocrded height of 65 inches and the recorded weight of 115 lbs. The body appears well-developed, normally muscular and slim, but not excessively thin.

The Coroner concluded shortly after her death that it was related to pneumonia and while it may have been preventable, it was accidental.

Murphy passed away in December at the age of 32 years old.

IS WHITNEY HITTING THE CRACK PIPE AGAIN?

After disappointingly bad performances during the first few nights of her Australian performance, tabloid rumors are suggesting that perhaps Whitney is either suffering from some debilitating health problems and/or drug abuse problems again.

A video surfaced this week of her singing “I Will Always Love You” in Brisbane this week, and she was visibly having trouble through the performance, and couldn’t hit the high notes with the ease that she used to. Of course, that was WHEN she actually hit one of the high notes (someone else in her band took care of several of them). She actually stopped halfway through the tune to take a water break, and made no effort to conceal the fact that she was worn out, both physically and vocally.

Her rep has released a statement saying that Whitney “is in great health and having a teriffic time on her tour with her fans.”

“BACHELOR” SKANK HAS A SEX TAPE!

There’s a new “celebrity” sex tape on the loose, featuring none other than “Bachelor” contestant Rozlyn Papa! The footage has reportedly been shopped to numerous triple-x outlets already. A rep from one of the adult websites says he’s seen the tape, and that there is absolutely no question that the girl in the video is Rozlyn.

The footage reportedly shows Papa gettin’ it on with a “well-endowed” gentleman. I’m guessing that it must not be the “Bachelor,” then.

Rozlyn’s rep has issued a statement saying that her client has no knowledge of any sex tape. Which is a far cry from outright denial, meaning that they must suspect she may have unknowingly appeared in one at some time.

There is no quicker way to fame, it seems, than to film yourself bumping uglies, then selling the tape!

TYLER KISSES AND MAKES UP WITH AEROSMITH

It’s been an interesting few months between Aerosmith and Steven Tyler. After a tension-filled tour, in which he had virtually nothing to do with his bandmate’s, a public interview in which he claimed he was leaving the band, a trip to rehab, and threats to sue Aerosmith if they went ahead with their plans to find a new lead singer, it looks as though Tyler has either reconciled with the boys or threatened his way back into the circle.

Aerosmith has announced that they’ll be performing their summer “Cocked, Locked and Ready to Rock” tour with Steven Tyler. The announcement was made via a video on the band’s website, featuring Tyler with the rest of them joking about how he “auditioned and got the gig.”

Joey Kramer also said in an interview this week that things with the band were “copacetic…We will carry on and do what we do best.”

Get high and screw groupies?

(Oh, my bad. They actually meant sing rock music, apparently.)

DENISE WILLIAMS HAS THE POWER TO BURY EX, CHARLIE SHEEN

Authorities in Colorado are ready to interview three other women as they prepare to prosecute Charlie Sheen on domestic violence charges. Ex girlfriend Brittany Ashland, Kelly Preston and Denise Richards are all on the list of women they’d like to speak to.

Denise Richards, mind you, is the ex that STILL complains about what a lousy person and human being she thinks Sheen is, and will talk about it at every available opportunity.

Not good news for you, Chuck!

At this point, no subpoenas have been issued. The district attorney is hoping that the women will cooperate and speak willingly. However, if that’s not the case, they don’t appear to be against going the route of legally forcing them to tell their Sheen stories.

As one online blogger said, “I don’t want to say this is the greatest moment of Denise Richards’ life, but I will say she’s wearing a party hat and spraying her kids in the face with champagne as we speak.”

Meanwhile, Sheen is said to be rehabbing his cocaine abuse issues away at the moment – a stint in rehab that has put CBS’ “Two and a Half Men” on hold, mind you. There is some talk that he could actually lose his job on the show. There’s apparently a morality clause in his contract that would allow the network to fire him if he disgraces them.

Not that this is a likelihood, as the show is currently a huge cash cow for the network. Sources on-set say that they’re willing to do what it takes to keep the show running with the current cast for as long as possible.

PIERCE BROSNAN NEVER WANTED TO NOT BE JAMES BOND

Pierce Brosnan, it seems, didn’t willingly give up the role of Bond…James Bond. In an interview with ABC, the actor confessed that he’s still quite confused about why the Bond franchise chose to replace him with Daniel Craig.

“I thought everything was going so well,” Brosnan told ABC. “I had the greatest time in my life, making that character, being part of that franchise.”

Brosnan graciously offered his blessing to Craig in 2007, saying that the actor was “on his way to becoming a memorable Bond.” Not that he would actually know. He reveals that the one time he tried to watch it on a plane, the television system on-board broke down. When they fixed it and restarted the film, it broke down again. Pierce never has seen “Casino Royale” all the way through.

Perhaps the effects of kinetic hatred is underrated…

BRISTOL PALIN HAS EXACTED HER FINANCIAL REVENGE ON EX LEVI

It seems that Levi Johnston didn’t have his day in court this week. After insisting that he had been forced out of his son’s life by the Palins, an Alaskan judge has ordered him to pay a whopping $18,500 in back child support to his ex fiance Bristol. He’s also been ordered to pay close to $1700 a month to cover her future child support needs.

Palin had been arguing that Johnston owed her $105,000 in child suppot in 2009, but had only paid her around $4500 of that. Johnston’s manager came back, saying that he knew his client had paid at least $10,000 to her that year.

Bristol Palin was present in court, but Levi wasn’t. Her lawyer told the media afterward, “Bristol is pleased with the court rulings today and looks forward to resolving the remaining issues with Levi.”

Before she was famous, Ke$ha was an awkard 13-year-old giving an off-key rendition of Radiohead’s “Karma Police” in her school’s talent show.

Director Marc Vorlander has developed a sequel to “Showgirls.” Because the first one simply didn’t fail hard enough.

*-*-* GUESS WHO *-*-*-

Both of these actors turned down the starring role in James
Cameron’s Avatar…

It’s Matt Damon and Jake Gyllenhaal

“I don’t think they ever had a problem with the CG,” James said.
“Honestly, did I go out and try to woo them? No. I had my heart
set on Sam. Maybe they sensed my lack of 100 percent commitment
from me. Maybe it was the subject matter. This was a big Star
Wars-type movie. They’re both serious actors.”

Instead, Sam Worthington, who was living in his car while
struggling to become an actor, got the part. James says that he
only approached big-name stars to please the movie studio, but
Sam was always his first choice.

Sam has already signed up for the sequel to the flick, which has
earned more than $2.5 billion in theaters worldwide.

Jake next stars in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Matt is
up for best actor in a supporting role for drama Invictus.

5 THINGS NOT WORTH SPENDING YOUR MONEY ON

According the “Cosmopolitan” magazine, there are 5 things you should never splurge on. The article says that these cheap tricks save you dollars but won’t make you feel like you’re sacrificing too much. I’m gonna have to say I disagree with most of them… When it comes to cereal, coffee and cocktails, you CAN tell a difference between “name brands” and generics. That’s just me though – how ‘bout you?

1. DESIGNER TIGHTS

Cash Sucker: Buying designer-label tights, which cost around $20 a pop at a department store.

Cheap Trick: Pick up non-designer tights. They go for about $10 and are often the same quality.

2. BRAND-NAME FOOD

Cash Sucker: Buying all brand-name food. For example, cereal costs $5 to $7 per box.

Cheap Trick: Go with store brands. The ingredients are often identical; they just package it more simply and price it about $3 to $4 a box.

3. COFFEE

Cash Sucker: Swinging into a coffee shop every morning for a latte. On average, you’ll spend $20 a week — that comes to $1,040 a year.

Cheap Trick: Pick up a $10 frother from a housewares store. Home-brew your own joe, then use the frother to whip up the milk.

4. MAIL

Cash Sucker: Purchasing stamps to mail your monthly bills — a year’s worth can add up to $50.

Cheap Trick: Pay your bills online by having the money automatically transferred from your bank account.

5. COCKTAILS

Cash Sucker: Going out to a trendy bar with friends is fun, but one martini can set you back $10.

Cheap Trick: Have everyone over to your place for some wine pre-going out. A bottle of decent vino runs the same as one drink at a bar.

ACCORDING TO TRIVIAL PURSUIT, WOMEN ARE BRIGHTER THAN MEN

Trivial Pursuit has driven a wedge between the sexes and declared that women are brighter than men! After a five-month online game and more than 15 million questions in nine languages, women were proclaimed the brighter sex. But their gift for gossip and showbiz trivia might have got them over the line.

Players were allowed to pick their own category, and women thought entertainment was a piece of cake, or a wedge of Trivial Pursuit pie, if you will. They answered twice as many entertainment questions as men, and beat men with 4,088,139 correct answers to 4,077,596.

But Deakin University senior lecturer Dr John Gough, whose expertise includes board games, cautioned against crowing too loudly. “Simple calculations of the difference in it shows women are in front by 0.3 per cent,” Dr Gough said. – Any way you look at it, a win is a win!!!!

Women Rule Trivial Pursuit

LOVE SHOES? THEN YOU BETTER BE A FACEBOOKER!

If there were ever a reason to become a fan of a brand on Facebook, it’s this. Nine West has decided to give its social media supporters a bit of an incentive to shop (we are in a recession, after all) and has created specific shoe styles available for the brand’s loyal Facebook fans first. Nine West creative director Fred Allard has designed six styles for sale exclusively on Facebook, along with the handbags featured in their spring lookbook. And if owning the newest looks before everyone else isn’t enough, they’re offering 15 percent off and free shipping for the remainder of February.

NOW THAT I HAVE A NEW BOYFRIEND, MY EX WON’T LEAVE ME ALONE

Woman’s been in a new relationship for a few months. Her ex BF won’t leave her alone and she doesn’t know what to do… “I dated a guy back in 2006 and part of 2007 who eventually broke up with me. I was upset at the time and then moved to another city so I could move on with my life. Well I have moved on with my life; I am currently dating a man I care about deeply. My current boyfriend and I have been together since this past December and “official” since January.

Since I started dating him, the old boyfriend has been occasionally sending me texts, writing on my Facebook wall, calling my phone and when I don’t pick up, he leaves me voicemails that send the message he’s desperate to talk to me. It’s clear to me that my old boyfriend has feelings for me — there was one phone call where he kept saying every inside joke we ever had.

I am beyond content in the relationship I have with my current boyfriend now and have no plans to wreck it. I have no ill feelings towards my old boyfriend; in my mind, he is something of what now feels like a past life. However, my current boyfriend is upset and angry that the old ex keeps trying to get in touch with me. I have no desire to create unnecessary drama and just want a peaceful life. How can I best handle the situation with without either of them getting all pissed off?”

PATTI LABELLE THINKS “IDOL” JUDGES CAUSE SUICIDAL THOUGHTS

Legendary singer Patti LaBelle has publicly spoken out against “American Idol,” taking the side of the many hopefuls who cross paths with the judges on their way to try to be a star. The “Lady Marmalade” singer has revealed in an interview that thinks “some of the judges…[aren't] qualified to even judge.”

LaBelle didn’t specify who she was talking about, though the comment does seem to be a rather overt dig at Ellen DeGeneres, the newest judge on the panel, as well as the only judge who has no roots in the music side of the entertainment business, aside from the fact that she likes to listen to music in her free time.

LaBelle went on to say that the judges were flat-out cruel in many cases. “The comments that were made, they could make you, like, wanna kill yourself. If you believe in yourself, just go for it. What do you have to lose?”

Um. The “American Idol” competition, actually. (Those who didn’t make the top 24 this year will likely agree with me.)

SUSAN BOYLE’S BROTHERS THINK SHE’S A NUTJOB

Susan Boyle has been followed with rumors of insanity after her initial breakdown following her “Britain’s Got Talent” loss last year, and then a series of episodes that have seemed to be mini breakdowns over the past half year or so. She recently told an audience that she would like this dream of hers to “go on and on,” but her brothers, Gerry and John, have told “People” magazine that Boyle may not be mentally fit to handle the pressures that come with being an international celebrity.

Says Gerry, “The traveling…thing is exhausting. She still has her anxities and her loneliness.”

Her older brother, John, was a bit more blunt, saying that sis Boyle needs “24 hour care.”

The 48-year-old Scottish singer was thrust into the spotlight overnight after her audition for “Britain’s Got Talent” became one of the largest viral videos, and her friends and family say that she is prone to call them late at night just to have someone to talk to. Her friend Lorraine Campbell has revealed, “If she’s upset, she’ll stay the night…nighttime is a lonely time for her.”

“LOST” STAR MATTHEW FOX ACCUSED OF CHEATING WITH A STRIPPER

“Lost” actor Matthew Fox is the latest celebrity to battle rumors of infidelity to his wife at the hands of some skanky stripper. He and Margherita Ronchi have been married for 18 years, they have two children together, and now, stripper Stefani Talbott is saying that Fox has bedded her on several occasions.

Talbott tells “InTouch” that she first met Fox last July when she began working at Stars Cabaret in Oregon. She said that when she was onstage, she spotted him immediately, having been a huge fan of “Party of Five,” and that she was excited to have him in her club.

Stefani says that the real-life Fox is nothing like the clean-cut on-screen Fox, though, and that he was hammered and dealing out $20 bills for multiple private dances from her. When he asked her why she was working there, she explained that she was a single mom who needed the money.

Talbott goes on to say that she met him later that night. “He complimented me and was saying how down-to-earth I am…he didn’t tell me to keep it a secret or anything. He didn’t even use protection. He didn’t seem concerned at all.”

Talbott claims that she has incriminating voicemails and texts to back her story up. Matthew Fox’s reps have denied that he has ever had anything to do with Stefani Talbott.

CHARLIE SHEEN BATTLING AN ADDICTION TO SNOW

It was reported earlier in the week that Charlie Sheen had now checked himself into rehab for “undisclosed reasons” while his wife, Brooke Mueller, kept their children after two recent rehab stints of her own.

Radar Online is now reporting that Sheen is in rehab for cocaine and alcohol abuse. This doesn’t quite go hand-in-hand with the statement from Sheen’s rep insiting that his rehab stay was simply a “preventative measure.”

Brooke Mueller revealed that she and Charlie had been using cocaine prior to their altercation that led to his Christmas Day arrest for domestic violence and a court order that kept them apart until recently. The idea that Sheen might be in rehab for cocaine certainly isn’t a very far-fetched idea, though his management has yet to confirm this.

CHRIS BROWN THINKS TIGER DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE

During a radio interview this week, singer Chris Brown was asked about the Tiger Woods scandal, and not surprisingly, Brown backed the golfer: “My hat goes off to him…I think people always deserve a second chance. I know my fans gave me a second chance and people gave me a second chance.”

Brown is, of course, referring to the domestic abuse charges he was hit with after beating up girlfriend Rihanna last year. He was recently praised by the judge for his community labor and domestic violence classes attendance during a progress hearing.

According to Chris, “nobody has the right to place judgment or make any judgment on somebody else’s personal life when they’re not directly involved with them…people make mistakes.”

Brown, of course, did overlook the one exception of no judgment UNLESS you have more than 10 mistresses involved. Judgment is totally allowed in those cases.

ELLEN FUELS COWELL DRAMA RUMORS BY SWITCHING SEATS

Ellen DeGeneres and Simon Cowell are said to be anything but friendly behind the scenes of “American Idol,” and Ellen has only added fuel to the fire by switching seats and taking a chair next to Randy Jackson for Tuesday night’s show.

DeGeneres, of course, turned the big thing into a joke, saying, “The problem is that Simon wants me. He’s got, like, a thing for me, and I get it – but it’s not gonna happen.”

Simon played things up, too, by filming a bogus “real” clip of him trying to grab at Ellen’s hand under the judge’s table.

Is this a clever way of trying to separate the two and keep the peace onstage, if not backstage?

NICOLE RICHIE IS FLYING PLANES. BE AFRAID.

Nicole Richie, who just recently got engaged to longtime boyfriend Joel Madden, is now taking to the friendly skies. As a co-pilot.

Am I the only one totally scared by this?

Richie flew to Montreal this week to promote her fashion lines, and during the trip, she was allowed to co-pilot the plane. She wrote about the experience of handling a plane in her blog, saying that it was “so much fun,” joking, “Now if only everyone else on the flight felt the same way.”

Oddly enough, this seems to be a growing trend among famous females. Model Gisele Bundchen is actually in the process of earning her pilot’s license, and Hilary Swank and Angelina Jolie have both taken multiple aviation lessons.

BOOK FANS ANGRY ABOUT ANGELINA JOLIE BEING CAST IN MOVIE

Not everyone is on Team Jolie, it seems! Particularly not when it comes to her playing their favorite book character. The actress has been lined up to portray Kay Scarpetta, the medical examiner from the Patricia Cornwell novels, and fans are absolutely livid about the choice.

Sources say that Jolie is thinking in terms of franchise money, similar to her role in the “Tomb Raider” films. One source says that she’s “been looking for another blockbuster character to play…which would extend her career and make her a huge amount of money.”

Cornwell herself says that she met Angie and was quite impressed with her, but the author’s fans seems to think that Brad Pitt’s arm candy is the farthest from the correct choice to play Scarpetta. Some of their comments suggest that Angelina’s beauty would actually distract from the intentions of the character, that she’s too thin to portray the “healthy” Scarpetta, and that she’s also too young for the part.

Readers have suggested Laura Linney, Diane Lane, and Jodie Fosters as actresses that might be better fit for the role. And given what they picture Scarpetta to be, I’m not entirely sure that’s a compliment for those actresses.

TIDBITS

Octomom Nadya Suleman is thinking ahead, and hasn’t ruled more children out of her future. She admitted to the ladies of “The View” this week that if she ever got married, she would consider it, though she would limit it to only one more child. Suleman’s current brood of 14 was conceived via in vitro, and she says her kiddos take priority over any future plans to have any more children. I’m sorry. What? Did Octomom just make a sensible statement? Goodness, it really is the end of days!

Conan O’Brien has joined the wide world of twitter. His bio on the micro-blogging site says, “I had a show. Then I had a different show. Now I have a Twitter account.” I’d say that about sums it up!

Clay Aiken is planning on speaking at the upcoming Human Rights Campaign Carolinas gala in his hometown of Raleigh, NC this weekend, as will Meredith Baxter. Both stars have abandoned their closets in the last year. Aiken says that his goal is “to be hopeful” and that “it’s time for everyone to have equal rights.”

Johnny Depp may be a hot piece of ass, but he’s apparently a smelly one, too. A source close to Depp and his wife, Vanessa Paradis say that neither of them is that big on personal hygiene, and they don’t shower as much as regular social interaction with other people should obligate them to. The source says that if Johnny is “showing up for work on set, he’ll be a total professional, but that doesn’t mean hell be shiny and clean.” Ew.

Sightings of missing “Growing Pains” actor Andrew Koenig continue to be reported in Vancouver, where he was last seen. Authorities say that the latest sighting that was reported match when his ATM card and cell phone were last used, and the good news is that they consider themselves to be seeking “a living person.” Koenig’s family initially feared the worst, revealing that he suffered from depression. A friend also said that Andrew had given away his belongings, turned off his phone and cleared out his apartment just prior to being seen by those close to him for the final time. Authorities seem to believe that Koenig might simply be laying low in Vancouver.

The plot thickens where “Growing Pains” actor Andrew Koenig’s mysterious disappearance is concerned. His family has confirmed that he suffered from depression, friends say that he gave away many of his belongings and turned off his phone right before he went missing, and now, a visit to his apartment by buddy Lance Miccio has found it completely cleaned out. Miccio says that Koenig mentioned moving to Vancouver to “start over,” and authorities say that after reported sightings in that area, they still consider this a search for a “living person.”

NEW TREND: DATING PRENUPS

In today’s New York Post there’s an interesting “trend” piece about unmarried couples who are drawing up formal and informal “cohabitation agreements” (dating “prenups” if you will) before moving in together. The agreements cover everything from who handles which chores, which person pays certain bills, and who gets what in the event of a breakup. Basically, more and more couples are drawing up these pre-nuptial-esque agreements, especially those who move in together earlier than they would normally, thanks to the tanking economy. So, I wondered, what does the average dude or chick think about this trend? Would he/she sign one? For that matter, would you?

‘Til Death Do Us Part??

DID YOU KNOW THERE’S AN OLYMPIC SPORT THAT WOMAN ARE ACTUALLY BARRED FROM?

I was interested to find out that before men compete in the Olympic ski jump competition and the Nordic combined, that women are testing out the hills for them. This is particularly significant considering that women are barred from competing in these two events. And yet two women agreed to act as forerunners – the athletes that test out the jumps and runs to make sure conditions are optimal – in ski jumping this year. While these two ladies seem to be thrilled to be involved in the Olympics at all, other world-class female skiers are not cool with them participating and refused invitations to participate as forerunners because they believe it sends a message that it’s OK for women to watch from the sidelines. In fact, some female skiers were so upset about not being able to compete in 2012, that 15 of them filed a lawsuit in the Canadian courts. But the Supreme Court ruled against them.

OK, so I can understand why they’re so pissed… If women are good enough to test the runs, why can’t they compete on them? The International Olympic Committee says it’s because the category does not have enough elite female competitors at this time, but the International Ski Federation claims that’s certainly not the case. Here’s hoping that women will be allowed to compete in 2014 – the I.O.C. will vote on the matter again next year. Hopefully, they’ll give it a thumbs-up then, along with pole dancing.

50% OF 6-YEAR-OLDS IN BRITAIN THINK THEY ARE FAT

Believe it or not, most 12-year-olds in Britain think they are too fat, while half of the country’s six-year-olds say they would like to be skinnier. Half the six-year-olds asked to pick their ideal body shape from a range of digitally altered images of themselves chose one that was three sizes smaller than the real image – the slimmest option they could choose. Many of the girls questioned in the study, by Cambridge University, said they thought being skinnier would make them more popular.

The mother of six-year-old Saffron Davis, who opted for the thinnest image, said the attention given to size zero models was responsible for making normal children overweight. “Saffron looks through my magazines and says her legs are fat. There is a worrying culture of girls thinking they’re overweight from a very young age,” she said. Last week it was reported that Davis’ five-year-old Lucy, 51 lbs, had been classed as “unhealthily fat” because she was one per cent over her ideal Body Mass Index.

6-Year-Olds Worrying About Weight

MY GIRLFRIEND HAS GAINED A LOT OF WEIGHT AND I’M BOTHERED BY IT

Guy is bothered that his girlfriend is gaining weight… “My girlfriend and I have been dating for several years. I’ve tried to get her to marry me on occasion, but she seems content with the way things are. I still nudge her about it from time to time, but since it never works, I’ve given up and now just accept our relationship for what it is. That’s not my problem… my problem is her weight.

Lately, I’ve noticed that her weight is spiraling out of control. Her belly and butt are starting to get very flabby and she can’t fit into her clothes anymore. I’ve tried to make very subtle suggestions to her about this mess, but she doesn’t pick up on them, doesn’t care or can’t help herself.

So my question is this: How can I deal with this? I don’t want a fatty hanging off my arm, and I don’t want the poor woman dropping dead of a heart attack or a stroke. Like most females, she’s very sensitive about her appearance. Furthermore, the last thing she needs is me nagging her after a long day on the mean streets. What do you think I should do? What can I say to her that she won’t interpret as an insult?”

CHARLIE SHEEN AND WIFE PLAY REHAB MUSICAL CHAIRS

Brooke Mueller has been in and out of rehab facilities in recent weeks, and is even reported to be preparing to sue The Canyon rehab facility for disclosing some of her admission info. Her rep also said that she had relocated to another location to complete her rehab, but now, she’s apparently keeping the kids while Charlie Sheen goes to rehab.

Um. What? Can you two just stay still for two seconds so I can collect my thoughts, here?!

The “Two and a Half Men” actor has checked himself into a rehab center for undisclosed reasons, according to his publicist, Stan Rosenfield, who released a statement on his client’s behalf yesterday.

Sheen has struggled with both substance abuse issues and anger management issues in the past, so the rehab stay could be related to either one or both of those.

“Two and a Half Men” has temporarily suspended filming while Sheen seeks treatment, and CBS has given no indication as to when everyone will return to the set to resume work. They have, however, issued their own statement, saying that they support him and wish him well.

TIGER WOODS APOLOGIZES TO HIS DAUGHTER’S SCHOOL

The tour of regret continues as golfer Tiger Woods and wife Elin Nordegren pen a letter of apology to the parents of students at Premiere Academy, where his 2-year-old daughter goes. The apology was for the media attention it’s garnered during Woods’ affair scandal(s) and for any disruption that it might have caused to the education of the students.

In the letter, Tiger and Elin expressed hope that the buzz would die down soon, writing, “We hope that the paparazzi will find something better to do with their time in the near future.”

Woods criticized the paparazzi during his first public address late last week for following his family and said that his “behavior doesn’t make it right for the media to follow [his] two-and-a-half-year-old daughter to school and report the school’s location.” He pleaded with the photogs to leave his wife and children alone.

Woods and Nordegren thanked their fellow parents for their patience and support.

IZZIE MAY LEAVE GREY’S ANATOMY FOR GOOD

Katherine Heigl has been sparse on this season of “Grey’s Anatomy,” and now that she’s back, she may leave again. For good. She’s been on a three-month maternity leave after she and husband Josh Kelley adopted a little girl, Naleigh, and she’s due back on set March 1st.

Shortly after she returns, however, she’ll be going to Vegas to accept the ShoWest award for Female Star of the Year, which has been previously won by successful movie actresses like Angelina Jolie and Jenfier Aniston. Some are speculating that with her growing success on the big screen, perhaps Heigl is eyeing a full-time movie career.

She’s certainly griped enough about life on the small screen. And after being absent for nearly half a season, insiders are murmuring that this could be the end of Dr. Isobel Stevens.

If this is the case, we would likely learn about the cast change in June, when contract re-ups are announced.

JESSICA SIMPSON EXACTS HER REVENGE ON MAYER

John Mayer had no problem detailing his sex life with Jessica Simpson in “Playboy” magazine, and now, the singer is ready to open up about her ex-boyfriend. She’s been booked for an appearance on Oprah, and while it’s not been confirmed that she’ll be discussing her thoughts on his interview, it’s not all that difficult to foresee Oprah delving right into this one.

And oh, what a golden opportunity for Jess! She hasn’t said much about the inappropriate comments about their sex life yet, but perhaps, she’s saving the best for daytime talk!

The show is taping today, so watch for it to air soon!

AHHHH…THE SMELL OF SEX AND THE CITY!

Actress Sarah Jessica Parker has unveiled her new “Sex and the City” fragrance. It’s called a “Snapshot of Carrie Bradshaw.”

Not gonna lie. I gather this must smell like a mixture of booze, coffee breath and cigarette smoke?

SJP says that she was trying to capture a “freeze-frame of [Carrie] walking down any New York City street at an idyllic time of year in a floral-print dress on her way to meet somebody or to do something, or surrounded by her women friends.”

Oh, great. She smells like Carrie Bradshaw in the smelly city of New York surrounded by her friends, which are likely covered with the scent of promiscuous skank.

Don’t lie, ladies! You know what you want to dab onto the nape of YOUR neck! Head to Macy’s and pick it up for $35 an ounce.

NOW, TILA TEQUILA IS GETTING MARRIED

She’s been engaged to a woman. She lost that woman to diabetes. She said she was pregnant with her brother’s baby. She hinted around that she might have lost that baby. She said she was adopting a child from Russia. So why NOT say she’s getting married?

Tila Tequila is now insisting that she’s engaged to the man who she claims got her pregnant – the result of her claiming her brother wanted her to be a surrogate mother for his child.

Her supposed ex-fiance, Casey Johnson, isn’t even cold in the ground yet, and Tequila says that she’s set to walk down the aisle with her baby daddy.

Tomorrow, she’ll likely reveal her plans to fly to the moon, where she has a vacation condo.

LINDSAY LOHAN STILL LOVES SAMANTHA RONSON

After admitting that she has/had a drug and alcohol problem, Lindsay Lohan is now ‘fessing up to still being in love with Samantha Ronson. The actress says that she was actually surprised to find herself attracted to Sam, and that she’s the only woman that she’s ever been romantically interested in.

As for the downfall of the relationship, LiLo claims that outside influences like Ronson’s family, their friends who didn’t like the idea of them dating, and the media scrutiny they lived under is what tore them apart.

Apparently, her crazy, drunken antics, coke abuse, and 3 am calls banging on Ronson’s door in full view of the paparazzi had NOTHING to do with it. Good to know.

Lindsay doesn’t seem to anticipate being with another woman in the future, and in fact says that if she and Sam don’t reconcile romantically, she’ll likely return to the almight weiner.

“The Piano” and “Bright Star” director Jane Campion, along with Pakistani director Ayesha Arif Khan, have both filed sexual harassment complains against the husband of the Women’s Film Festival director – an event they just attended in India. Campion’s statement even suggests that other women were perhaps bothered by Bhaskar Deb, issuing a statement saying that multiple attendees experienced “rude and even lewd advances…and all felt shocked and angry that such a brazen fraud could be allowed to proceed unimpeded by the Indian authorities.”

Campion claims that she only attended the festival in the first place because she was told that it was being backed by the Ministry of Urban Development, but now refers to the entire event as “fraudulent.” Jane is asking that the ministry reimburse her the expenses it took for her to visit India, which total up to $10K.

Bhaskar has claimed innocence and brushed her statement off.

Like mama, like daughter! Bristol Palin has officially entered the world of show business, and will make her acting debut on “The Secret Life of the American Teenager.” The 19-year-old will play herself, actually. ABC Family has referred to Palin as “the most famous teenage mother in America.”

“Twilight” actor Robert Pattinson, the man who recently referred to himself as being “allergic to vagina,” has finally admitted that he can tolerate the nether regions of co-star Kristen Stewart. After months of refusing to acknowledge that they were dating, Robert confirmed their couplehood at Sunday’s Bafta dinner, saying, “It’s extremely difficult but we are together, yes.”

FONSECA PICTURE

Jennifer Love Hewitt is kind of a weirdo. The “Ghost Whisperer” actress celebrated her 31st birthday dolled up like an 80s punk reject for her retro themed party. Sadly, this outfit is scarier than any of the spirits she encounters on her show!

Playgirl has offered Michael Vick $1 million (which they will give to PETA) if he takes his clothes off. A spokesperson for the magazine said, “I sent the request to Michael Vick on Wednesday, but we haven’t heard back yet. I figured he paid back society for dog fighting, but what about the animals? This way he could donate a large sum to PETA and all he’d have to do is pose for the magazine! It’s kind of a win-win situation!” – You know, Vick is in the middle of filming a reality show, The Michael Vick Project. Would this not make for an interesting episode?

IN THE NEWS

Record labels tend not to like it when you fail to produce hit songs for them. I’m guessing that’s why Sony Music Epic has dropped Jennifer Lopez. Her last several singles have failed to garner any kind of response, and they’ve shelved her 7th album “Love?” which was originally scheduled to come out in April.

“Glee” is the surprise hit sensation of the television season so far, and the cast has now been invited by Michelle Obama to perform at the White House’s Easter Egg Roll this year. The cast, according to their gleeful (pun TOTALLY intended) tweets, are over the moon about the invitation and can’t wait to put on a show for the President and First Lady.

Ice, ice baby! We knew that Hilary Duff was sporting a rock after becoming engaged to boyfriend, NHL player Mike Comrie, but now that the price tag has been revealed, our jaws have hit the floor! The Duffster’s bling cost a whopping million bucks! How girlfriend is walking around without toppling over under the weight of that thing since she can’t even lift a sandwich to her mouth with that bony little hand is beyond me!

Matt Kemp sure did go through a lot of trouble to throw a banging birthday bash for his FRIEND Rihanna over the weekend. The party took place in Phoenix, where Kemp is training, and pulled out all the stops – including a lap dance for Rihanna from a little person porn star! Now THAT is a birthday to remember. Though, I’m not sure you’d want to remember that.

This is a clip from ABC news. The daughter of Joe Stack, the IRS Plane Bomber, did a telephone interview regarding her father.. At one point she was asked if her dad was a hero . . . she said “Yes.”

This clip comes from Dutch TV and, as such, it’s not in English. A Dutch TV reporter allegedly poops her pants during an outdoor interview. Sadly, we’ve heard that it’s a fake, and the crew was simply pranking the guy she was interviewing.

The Taylor Swift backlash was inevitable. There are more than a few bloggers who are angrily typing away, cataloging how Taylor Swift is “a feminist’s worst nightmare.” I’m sorry, but do you people remember Britney Spears? Seriously, for-cripes-sakes-they’re-just-love-songs-chill-out-everybody! The video below is a parody of her song, “Fifteen.” **You may want to preview it before airing it – it has a few questionable lyrics.

Here’s another animal video for when you need a fix. This is an example of Cat-on-Cat massage. Nothing more needs to be said

27 THINGS YOU’LL NEVER HEAR OUT OF A GUY’S MOUTH

If you’re a woman, you’ve pretty much never heard your guy say, “not tonight, honey.” Why you ask? Because “I’m too tired” doesn’t seem to be in the Guy Vocabulary. Ever wonder what else is not in a man’s vocab? Here you go… It’s a list of phrases you’ll never, ever hear come out of a guy’s mouth … at least not with a straight face.

1. “Not tonight. I’m just not in the mood.”

2. “Cover up, sweetie. You are leaving nothing to the imagination!”

3. “Let’s throw the rest of that bacon away so we’re not tempted to eat it.”

4. ”Tila Tequila? Oh yeah, I’d do her.”

5. “I should throw these socks away. They are disgusting.”

6. “Don’t sweat it; I’ll pay off your credit card balance.”

7. “We should totally get tickets to that Taylor Swift concert!”

8. “I’m not really into blow jobs.”

9. “My friends think I’m a Miranda, but I really think I’m a Carrie.”

10. “It’s OK, honey, I’ll do the laundry.”

11. “How about a rom-com?”

12. “Models just seem really vain and superficial to me. Why would you want to be around that?”

13. “‘The View’ was better when Rosie was on it.”

14. “Wow, my handlebar mustache looks really stupid.”

15. “Just a garden salad with dressing on the side, please.”

16. “Let’s go pick out a new bath mat today.”

17. “I know you’ve been on the pill for awhile, but I really think we should wear a condom.”

18. “We should offer to babysit your sister’s kid Saturday night. It’ll be so fun!”

19. “It’s so not fair at family gatherings when all the women clear the table and do the dishes after we eat, while the men sit at the table and keep talking. I’m going to help out next time!

20. “I think you should buy another purse.”

21. “This is way too spicy for me.”

22. “Wow, Tyra’s talk show is great!”

23. “$350 is a totally reasonable price for that tee shirt.”

24. “Your boobs look too big in that shirt.”

25. “American Apparel’s Best Bottom In The World contest was such a terrible idea.”

26. “We shouldn’t prank him — that would be so mean!”

27. “Can I join your book club?”

WHAT YOUR COFFEE SAYS ABOUT YOU

Coffee snobs can find more than froth and sugar at the bottom of their cups – personality lives there as well. While strolling out of a cafe on the way to work, that cup of coffee in your hand is actually emitting hidden meanings to passers-by. In their new book, The You Code, body language experts Judi James and James Moore translate what our caffeine preferences reveal about our self esteem, stress levels and even sex life.

THE ESPRESSO DRINKER – Espresso drinkers tend to be moody, hard-bitten and hard working. They are into leadership and fast goals. They don’t suffer fools but are hard living and prone to “night-time shenanigans, followed by a rather louche attempt at day time repair”. The espresso drinker can be an experienced, exciting and consummate lover but is not known for reliability or unswerving loyalty.

THE BLACK COFFEE DRINKER – This type is all about minimalism and takes a no-frills, direct approach to life. The black coffee drinker can be quiet and moody but prone to brief bursts of extroversion. A difficult but potentially rewarding friend, colleague or partner.

THE LATTE DRINKER – Typically metrosexuals or cuddly-toy collectors, latte drinkers are pleasers with an overwhelming compulsion to be liked. A latte drinking boss will use a baby voice to tell you off. Latte drinkers reveal that while they may want to come across as hot-shot contenders, they have an immature side.

THE CAPPUCCINO DRINKER – What’s not to like about the extroverted, optimistic cappuccino drinker? Like their drink, cappuccino drinkers are all froth and bubble, bored by detail and liking – but not obsessed with – material objects. The cappuccino drinker enjoys sex but is easily bored by an unimaginative partner.

THE FRAPPUCINO DRINKER – Flighty and shallow, the frappucino drinker will try anything once – especially if a celebrity has done it first. They fancy themselves as trend setters but send out the message that they are someone who favors style over substance. The frappucino drinker’s relationships often last as long as their drink choice.

THE NON-COFFEE DRINKER – Unfortunately, the verdict isn’t good… Frightened of coffee equals frightened of life. If the taste of coffee puts you off you really are a child, and it’s time to join the world of grown-ups.

SPORTS BEING LOBBIED FOR THE 2012 SUMMER OLYMPICS

If you have been scratching your head trying to figure out the finer points of curling, perhaps you’d be more interested in watching Olympic pole dancers compete for the gold? This is not a joke … competitive pole dancers are lobbying for a spot in the 2012 Olympics. Due to rapid national and international growth, these moves once relegated to seedy strip joints are now being recognized as an up-and-coming athletic event.

You can’t help but wonder what the costumes would look like. I’m not so certain that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is quite ready to say yes to strappy platform shoes and tassels quite yet, but if they did, it would certainly be interesting. Here are some more sports that think they deserve a spot in the Olympics and what’s been decided.

• Cheerleading: There was nothing for competitive cheerleaders to rah rah about when their IOC application, to be considered for the 2012 Olympics, was denied. But these cheerleaders won’t let their perky smiles fade … maybe 2016 will be their year to do back flips? (Wiki Answers)

• Golf: It’s bad news for the sport of golf in 2012. The IOC decided that there will be no holes-in-one at the 2012 Olympics, but they are planning on letting athletes tee up in 2016. Tiger Woods should be out of sex rehab by then. (World Golf)

• Karate: Even though karate was one of the final two nominees by the IOC, the martial art failed to chop through with two-thirds of the vote. Because those who practice karate are non-violent, no one at the IOC will be harmed. (Associated Content)

• Women’s Boxing: It’s a TKO for the fiercest of the fierce female boxers. After many rounds of petitions, they will be competing in five weight categories in the 2012 Olympics. (Guardian)

• Squash: Professional squash players’ dreams were squashed after their campaign to be an Olympic sport was denied by the IOC. (BBC)

WOMEN AND THEIR SECRET TURN-ONS

Do you like strictly tall, dark and handsome men, or does your taste tend to deviate just a bit from the norm? In a recent study of 2,500 women, it was revealed that women name “facial stubble,” a “geeky personality,” and a “hairy chest” as their top three “secret turn-ons.” Other traits included in the top ten were: “grey hair, glasses and being a passionate supporter of a sports team.” Men may be relieved to learn that over half the women polled said they prefer a man who Is “soft and cuddly instead of toned and muscley.” Perhaps most interesting is that one in five women polled would not even reveal what their biggest secret turn-on in a man is. – Oh, come on! How strange could it be?

Hairy Chest… Really?

SHOULD I MARRY MY POOR BOYFRIEND?

Woman is concerned she’ll end up being the bread-winner in the relationship and doesn’t know if she should marry her BF knowing he’ll never make as much money as she does… “I’m 28 and have been dating my 34-year-old boyfriend for almost two years. This relationship was “hot and heavy” from the get-go because our personalities really clicked and he is the first man I have ever loved. However, I regret moving in with him a year ago. Not because I don’t love him, but because I’m not sure he can give me the type of life I want.

When we met, we made the same amount of money. However, now I’m way above him in salary and I’m also going back to school for my Masters (I’ve always been an over-achiever). My future looks very bright compared to his. He lost his previous job and his current job pays barely enough to cover his minimum monthly expenses! The worst part is I’m not sure I have faith in his professional money-making abilities.

If I stay with him, I can totally see a life where I’m bringing home the bacon while he’s the stay-at-home dad … which might be nice for some women, but that is NOT the life for me. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want him to support me. I simply would like my life partner to be able to pull his own weight and possibly “carry” me temporarily should I need it — and I would do the same for him. Bottom line, I don’t feel safe financially with him, but I do love him. Should I marry him (and carry all the financial responsibility) or break up with him (and risk never finding another man who loves me as much)?” – Seriously, if you love him like you say you do, you’d get over it. One word, toots, SHALLOW!!

LINDSAY ADMITS SHE WAS A COKEHEAD

Lindsay Lohan has finally admitted what we’ve known all along – that she blew her career, and nearly ended her life by downing as many alcoholic beverages and snorting as many piles of the snow as she could get her hands on. The 23-year-old has been in rehab three times, and was also caught in possession of cocaine at one point, but continued to deny that she had a public.

Lohan says now that she hit rock bottom in 2007 when her father first began speaking publicly of her problems, as well as of her mother. “I tried to mask my problems with alcohol, cocaine and mine-altering substances,” LiLo admits. “I ran myself down and lost track of who I was.”

(Michael Lohan, by the way, wasn’t about to shut up when she handed him a golden opportunity. He’s issued a statement saying that he’s happy that she’s owning up to her behavior, but that “SHE DID NOT GO ROCK BOTTOM WHEN I WENT PUBLIC.” And yes. He said it in all caps. He internet yelled it.)

As for that DUI arrest back in May of 2007, Lindsay now says she thanks her lucky stars that she didn’t injure anyone when she got behind the wheel after having three drinks. “I’ve been stupid and childish and I wasn’t thinking.”

So, has she stopped? Well, not entirely. According to LaLohan, the drug abuse is no longer an issue, but she still indulges in alcohol from time to time. “I know my limits. Partying so hard isn’t worth it.”

Meanwhile, Ne-Yo, who was working the actress on her third CD, has admitted that she’s much more talented than he initially gave her credit for being, and that he was originally excited to work with her. But according to the singer, “It just fell off and hasn’t got back on…I’m not gonna hold my breath.” Ne-Yo does, however, say that she may call him when she’s ready to get back into the studio and get to work.

CHARLIE SHEEN’S WIFE SUING REHAB CENTER

After reports that Charlie Sheen’s equally-messed-up half, Brooke Mueller, had checked into a second rehab facility less than a month after leaving her first, she has now left The Canyon, moved to another facility, and is preparing a lawsuit.

According to Mueller’s lawyer, there was a security breach at The Canyon, and Brooke’s personal information from her admission form, which outlined her substance abuse problems, was leaked to the tabloids. The aim at this point is to have the person responsible for taking the info to the media arrested.

The attorney says his client has relocated to a more secure rehab center, and the only information being given is that it “specializes in the type of treatment that Brooke needs so she can be the best mom she can be.”

Thank you, Captain Vague. Too bad we already know she’s a crack whore.

RYAN PHILLIPPE AND ABBIE CORNISH ARE ACTING LIKE HIGH SCHOOL KIDS

As news broke this week of Ryan Phillippe and Abbie Cornish’s break-up, supposedly of infidelity on Phillippe’s part, the two are now entangled in a bitter game of Who Broke Up With Who First?

Initial reports said that Abbie packed her belongings and moved out of their shared home after learning that Ryan had been cheating on her. Her rep says that the actress officially called it quits on their couplehood after four years.

Then, Phillippe’s reps came along behind her and insisted that he was the one who broke up with Abbie, asking her to get her crap together and get the heck out of their house.

The two began dating while Phillippe was still married to Reese Witherspoon, and why Abbie Cornish thought that she would be safe in the relationship after he CHEATED WITH HER intially, I don’t know.

But one thing is clear. There is only one way to settle this dispute: DANCE OFF DURING LUNCH PERIOD!

THE WHO MAY BE FACING ITS FINAL DAYS AS A BAND

First Aerosmith, than the Rolling Stones…classic rock bands have been having a tough time lately and inner-band squabbles have taken its toll on the members, leaving them contemplating a departure from the business. Now, It looks like The Who is seriously considering calling it quits – but not because they can’t get along.

Pete Townshend suffers from tinnitis, which is painful ringing and buzzing in his ears. The condition has been caused by years of the abnormally high volumes he’s been exposed to while performing. If things don’t improve for him soon, Townshend tells “Rolling Stone” magazine, “We’re finished…I can’t really see any way around the issue.”

Townshend will be testing a new in-ear monitoring system at a show in London next month, and how well it performs is going to be the deciding factor for the future of The Who.

If this is the end of the road for them, playing the halftime show at the Super Bowl is a pretty fantastic farewell to their fans.

FACEBOOK “BETTY WHITE TO HOST SNL” PUSH JUST MAY HAVE WORKED

It’s the triumphant return of “Golden Girl” Betty White, who, after a string of spunky appearances and a lifetime achievement win at the SAG awards, was being hailed as a shoe-in to host “SNL” on Facebook. A fan page dedicated to getting the legendary sketch show to book her quickly amassed hundreds of thousands of followers, and it seems that the campaign was mostly successful.

There’s rumblings that “SNL” is extremely close to booking the fun-loving actress to host. She wouldn’t be hosting alone, however. The show is reportedly working on assembling a “Women of Comedy” episode that would team her with much younger women who have had a successful career in the comedic apartment. Amy Poehler, Molly Shannon, Tina Fey, and several others are said to be on board.

NBC says that nobody has been confirmed at this point in time.

JESSICA SIMPSON WANTS HER OWN PIG

After her beloved dog Daisy’s tragic death at the hungry mouth of a coyote last year, Jessica Simpson is looking to get some snugglin’ from a pig.

And no, I don’t mean Nick Lachey.

The singer tweeted recently that she was thinking about getting a pet pig – an update she ended with the question, “Does this mean I’ll have to give up pork?”

Annnnnnd…cue PETA. The Animal Rights Activists have issued an angry statement saying that pigs “who are smarter than dogs and every bit as sensitive to pain and stress, don’t belong in Jessica’s stomach or carted around as her latest accessory.”

Not that Simpson would be the first celebrity to own a pet pig. Paris Hilton, a serial pet collector, had a teacup piglet named Princess Piglette last year. The bacon set her back a pretty penny, too: $4500!

LACEY SCHWIMMER BIDS FAREWELL TO DWTS

“Dancing With the Stars” will be missing a familiar face come the new season. Professional dancer Lacey Schwimmer has revealed that she won’t be returning to the show. In a twitter update, she said that she was sad she wouldn’t be returning. It hasn’t been made apparent whether or not she’s leaving of her own accord or if she’s possibly been fired from the show.

Schwimmer has been with “DWTS” since 2008, and has been partnered with Lance Bass, Steve-O and Mark Dacascos. Her highest placement overall was with the former NSync singer, with whom she placed third during the seventh season.

TIDBITS

Kirk Cameron has joined in the efforts to find his former “Growing Pains” co-star, Andrew Koenig, AKA “Boner.” The actor disappeared in Vancouver more than a week ago, and his family has since revealed that he’s been in a state of depression for quite some time. One friend of his has said that just prior to his disappearance, he disconnected his phone and gave some of his belongings to friends – a startling indicator that suicide may have been on his mind. Cameron has given a statement to “Life & Style” magazine, begging Andrew to call him, and offering prayers to his old friend and Koenig’s family.

Top Chef hostess Padma Lakshmi has welcomed a brand new baby girl. Krishna Thea Lakshmi was born on Saturday, and aside from a statement saying that mom and baby are both well, there have been no other details provided.
