Sweet!

Update Angelina and Brad's rep denies the birth. Hmmm. What do you think? Are they in or out?
No, this is not a snippet of the first episode of "Living Lohan." But it's pretty darn close.
This is Tracey Ullman's spot-on take-off of Dina Lohan in her new HBO comedy show.
And after seeing the first episode of the Lohan sisters' horrible stage cougar-who-eats-her-own-young's reality show this week, all I can say is, "Poor Lindsay Lohan."
I'd say, "Poor Ali Lohan" too, but there's something creepily complicit about that pointy little self-entitled wannabe. She already looks older and harder than her sister Lindsay, and how is that even possible?
Apples. Tree. Not far.
What are your thoughts?
Imagine Sharon Stone (above), Jennifer Aniston, Britney Spears, Sarah Jessica Parker, Victoria and David Beckham, Pamela Anderson, Nicole Kidman and Johnny Depp, if they were not rich and famous Hollywood celebrities.
What if they were just normal people, living happy, obscure lives somewhere in the Midwest?

More »Kate Hudson does a little dance during filming of her new comedy, "Bride Wars," the story of best friends who become rivals when they schedule their respective weddings on the same day, which sounds like one we can miss.
Annoyingly, she looks really cute doing it. But then, she looks really cute doing just about anything.
See what we mean?

Check out this mother lode of candid snaps found by some intrepid Web wag in the Photobucket page of "Gossip Girl" star Ed Westwick.
At least, we think it belongs to Ed Westwick. Chace Crawford is in some of the shots too.
We're loving this inside look at Ed and Chace's off-set activities, which include taking photos of themselves at drunken parties and wearing silly plastic sunglasses.
Hey, who's the boyish brunet Ed's kissing? That shot is way steamier than Chuck's love scene with Blair.

Not everyone appreciates Sharon Stone's brash, outspoken manner.
Especially in China, where the actress was just jettisoned from advertisements by luxury brand Christian Dior for a statement she recently made about the deadly earthquakes in China.
While at the Cannes Film Festival, Stone pronounced, "I'm not happy about the way the Chinese are treating the Tibetans, because I don't think anyone should be unkind to anyone else. And then all this earthquake and all this stuff happened, and I thought, is that karma -- when you're not nice that the bad things happen to you?"
Her remarks have been met with anger in China, where people have now promised to boycott her films.
Um, what films?
Apparently, it's serious enough that Dior has issued a statement trying to distance the luxury conglomerate from the actress/spokesmodel.
"In light of the negative reaction that Sharon Stone's inappropriate remarks have triggered, Dior China has decided to immediately cancel and stop any advertisements, marketing campaigns and commercial activities associated with Sharon Stone. We don't agree with her hasty, unreflecting remarks and we deeply regret them. We just want our customers and fans to realize that her personal comments are not related to the company and of course we don't support any type of commentary that will hurt the feelings of our customers."
And on it goes: "Dior was one of the first international brands to enter China and has won the affection and respect of the consuming public. We absolutely do not support any remark that hurts the Chinese people's feelings. We express our sorrow over the compatriots who lost their lives in the earthquake in Wenchuan, Sichuan, and we extend our sympathy and condolences to the people in the disaster area."
Stone has also done her mea culpas. She was quoted by the Beijing News, "In the course of the interview I made inappropriate remarks and for any harm created towards the Chinese people I am extremely sad and apologize."
Doesn't sound too heartfelt to me....

Naomi Campbell was seen in tears after leaving Sean "Diddy" Combs' yacht party at Cannes last week.
Now she's really got something to cry about: being charged with assault.
The British Crown Prosecution Service today charged Naomi Campbell with alledgedly assaulting not one but two police officers in an outburst in Heathrow Airport.
The supermodel, whose charges could carry a maximum six-month jail sentence and fines, will be brought to trial on June 20.
Campbell was also charged with disorderly conduct and using threatening behavior and abusive words to the cabin crew. The dispute purportedly arose over lost luggage on a British Airways flight, a flight from which Campbell was forcibly removed.
Hey, we've all been there, Naomi. Lost luggage is upsetting, but it's not worth assaulting a bunch of bobbies.
I guess it's "Once a Diva, always a Diva."
According to AP, this is not Campbell's first assault. In 2000, she pleaded guilty in Toronto to an assault charge for beating an assistant while filming in Canada in 1998. Under an agreement with prosecutors, Campbell had remorse and was released without punishment or a criminal record.
In January 2007, Campbell pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault in New York for throwing her cellphone at her maid in a dispute over a missing pair of jeans. She was ordered to do community service and attend a two-day anger-management program.
I'd say Little Miss Diva should stay longer than just two days in an anger-management program this time.
Does this woman have volcanic rage issues?

Newlyweds Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz officially confirmed the rumors they've been denying and deflecting for weeks with an announcement on Pete Wentz's website:
"While many have speculated about this, we wanted to wait until after the first trimester to officially confirm that we are expecting our first child. This is truly the most joyous time in our lives, and we are excited to share the happy news and start our family."
After the first trimester? Hmmm. Or maybe until they'd inked a maternity clothing-line contract.
Seriously, how can we trust these two after all the fake denials and dismissals? Fool us once, shame on you. Fool us twice, shame on us!
