What Brad Doesn't Want You to See

Brad Pitt has threatened legal action against anyone (that includes bloggers too!) who publishes recently-taken nude photographs of him.

Guess Brad was sunbathing naked on his balcony in LA when a paparazzo took his pictures.

Hmm, didn't this just happen to Jennifer Aniston? It did!

Maybe she had the photographer target Brad as a way to seek some revenge on her ex. Why not? He has happily moved on with the sexiest woman in the world; what ex would be happy about that? Think about it...just a theory.

Okay, so Brad's not quite naked in this picture, but he still looks pretty darn good. Enjoy!

Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts pregnant?

Gossip sites are speculating that both Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts are preggers. Nicole is dating Keith Urban, hot Australian cowboy, and Naomi is dating, not-so-hot but serious actor, Liev Schrieber. What makes this news (if it's true) even better, is that N & N are best friends from down under. Nicole is 38 years old and Naomi is 37 years old so yes, their clocks are seriously ticking. But also, if you think about it, Nicole must be upset by the news that her ex, Tom Cruise is expecting a child with his new wife-to-be, Katie Holmes - who is only 26 years old and has plenty of time for more babies in the future. The race is on! BabyWatch begins!

Happy Birthday Jude Law!


That hot, sexy, man-about-town, Jude Law turns 33 years old today.

To celebrate his big day, he's probably out romancing (read: shaggin) a pretty blonde, young, thing or two.

Katie Holmes and her bastard



Katie Holmes announces that she won't get married until apres her baby is born.

She is quoted as saying, "All these rumors that we're getting married this week or next, they're just not true. I won't be waddling into my wedding with a big bump." But my baby will be a bastard. It certainly will!

It's hard to tell when Katie is due but it'll definitely be in '06.

For a reader who asked, here's a photo of SJP at the premiere of The Odd Couple. She's wearing a Peter Soronen gown.

George Clooney and Lucy Liu?

Rumors are spreading that Hollywood's most eligible bachelor, George Clooney, is dating Charlie's Angels star, Lucy Liu. I don't see the attraction - he's hot, she' s not but to each his own. According to pagesix.com, the two were spotted making out at Downtown Cipriani. An onlooker says, "She looked like she was going to devour him." Love it!

Celebrities and their siblings


Britney Spears is so white-trash.
Here's a picture of her shopping with her little sister in Malibu the day after Christmas.

Britney looks really bad. That damaged hair, the awful color and her brown roots! Plus, look at what she's wearing. She looks as if she just woke up and rolled out of bed. She's wearing a classic Madonna shirt but she still looks bad.
Her sister doesn't look as bad but no glamour queen.


















Lindsay Lohan at a Knicks game with her younger brother.

She doesn't look good. Actually, she kind of looks a bit aged in this photo. She is drinking a Coke, so maybe she'll get an endorsement selling Coke.












Jessica Simpson and her less attractive but more talented sister, Ashlee. Their mom is there too. Everyone loves to shop! Go ahead and spend it; there'll be less for Nick!















By far, my favorite 'sister's photo. Separated at birth? You can't beat these three Divas, don't even try!

Beyonce in her fake wig, Mariah Carey and her fake body parts and the queen Diva of them all, Donatella Versace. Love it!

Josh Lucas is Hot and Single


Merry Christmas!

Josh Lucas is hot, single and very available.

"I'm sickeningly and boringly single at this point." "I'm tired of it. It's the holidays, dammit!" He wants you! Go get him.

He's no longer with Salma Hayek but they are still good friends. Just so you know.

Gwen Stefani is Pregnant

That lucky B! Gwen Stefani is expecting Gavin Rossdale's baby. That man is seriously smokin' hot and Gwen is one lucky B!

As the world already knows, Gavin has a daughter from a previous relationship; her name is Daisy. Gwen found about it when everyone else did. She was understandably upset but has patched things up nicely with Gavin.

I wish them the best of luck and I bet their baby will be very cute.

Celebrities Christmas Shopping



Cameron Diaz waiting be to pampered while shopping at Neiman Marcus in Beverly Hills.

Cam bought a ring for $7,000 - nice!

Jessica Simpson still shopping to dull the pain of her divorce.

What's better than shopping alone? Shopping with your mom and sister.

Guess Ashlee isn't too 'tired' to shop. She collapsed in Japan last week due to exhaustion but she's happily shopping away Nick's millions today. The more they spend, the less Nick gets in the divorce.

Anna Nicole Smith to invade London

It's being reported that Anna Nicole Smith will be on "Celebrity Big Brother" the London version. George Smith will also be on the show. Oh my!

Mike Meyers leaving his wife

Austin Powers aka Mike Meyers has separated from his wife of 12 years, Robin. Her mom was the inspiration for his 'Coffee Talk' sketch on Saturday Night Live. It's a shame really - they looked like a cute couple.

Happy Birthday Brad Pitt!

Hottie Brad Pitt celebrates his 42nd birthday today!

Happy Birthday!

Somewhere he and Angelina are celebrating in style with their kids.



Too bad Jennifer Anuston is missing out!

Weekend Box Office - King Kong #1

Although King Kong was the number one movie this weekend with $50.2 million, the results were well below industry expectations of $80 million+. What happened?

The movie had some of the best reviews by critics (but do audiences really care what some middle-aged old men think?) and a giant marketing campaign.

I think the movie was too long (three hours is a bit much unless you're Lord of the Ring fan) and the commercials didn't really do it justice (they show Kong so many times, there really wasn't any expectation factor built in; remember "Godzilla" with Matthew Broderick? not many do because it sucked but at least they drew audiences in opening weekend by not showing the monster in any previews/ads). All of the above, plus no strong A-list talent and Peter Jackson's ego all got in the way.

Weekend Box Office 12/16 to 12/18*
1. King Kong (Universal) - $50.2 million
2. The Chronicles of Narnia (Buena Vista) - $31.2 million
3. The Family Stone (Fox) - $12.7 million (proof that Sarah Jessica Parker can't open a movie)
4. Harry Potter (Warner Brothers) - $5.9 million (exceeded $250 million in the U.S.)
5. Syriana (Warner Brothers) - $5.5 million
*early estimates

A special note about "Brokeback Mountain". The movie was 8th this weekend with a take of $3.3 million in only 69 theaters - another record I believe - and averaged a little over $34,000 per theater (last week it averaged over $100,000 per theater, a record for a non-cartoon).

The Week in Review

DJ AM dumps Nicole Ritchie and calls off their engagement. But they're still seen going to dinner together.




















Lindsay Lohan is still a brunette for this week at least.



Rumor has it, Jennifer Aniston's new movie stinks. She should stick to "Friends".















King Kong flops on its opening day despite some of the strongest reviews for a movie this year since "Cinderella Man" and we all know how that fared at the box office.


Nick and Jessica make it official. Jessica files for divorce.
















Tom and Katie take over New York and proceed to PDA everywhere. The city will never be the same again.





















"Brokeback Mountain" gets nominated for seven Golden Globes the most for any movie this year.

Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise Celebrating her 27th Birthday

Forget about King Kong; Tom and Katie tear up NY yesterday. They celebrated her birthday at F.A.O. Schwarz. Um, how old is she? Five? Just like any 27-year-old, she was surrounded by stuffed animals and toys.


What is he doing to her hair? He doesn't need to pull it like that. Kind of odd.


















Typical guy - he doesn't think she can do it right so he has to help out. And he's still pulilng her hair...





















Obligatory PDA























Now, he's making her skate in the rain?

What kind of birthday fun is that?

It's official! Jessica Simpson Files for Divorce

More bad news for the Simpson family today. Jessica has officially filed for divorce from Nick Lachey.

In Touch Weekly is reporting the news on their website.

WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Jessica files for divorce
Friday, December 16, 1:10 p.m. ET
Updated: 6:30 p.m. ET

As In Touch reported exclusively earlier today, Jessica Simpson has filed for divorce in Los Angeles.

Her attorney, Robert Kaufman (Jennifer Aniston's attorney), cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the end of her three-year marriage to Nick Lachey.

In the papers, which In Touch has obtained, Jessica requested her name be restored and asked the court not to award spousal support to Nick.

The decision to file papers came after Nick and Jessica spoke by phone on Wednesday and were unable to resolve their problems.

A source close to the couple tells In Touch: “Jessica has made every effort to make it work with Nick, but she doesn’t want to put her life on hold any longer and is trying to move forward.”

Ashlee Simpson Hospitalized in Japan


Once again, US Weekly breaks news. They must have the world's best stalkers, I mean, reporters.

Ashlee Simpson Hospitalized in Japan
Us Weekly is the first to report that singer Ashlee Simpson, 21, is currently in a Tokyo hospital after collapsing yesterday following an MTV Japan performance. The singer, whose album I Am Me, debuted at Number 1 last month, had just performed her single 'Boyfriend' before the audience when she told the crowd she felt unwell, and said to them, 'I love you guys.'

She then collapsed in an elevator at MTV Japan and was rushed by ambulance to an undisclosed hospital where she has remained. Her publicist, Rob Shuter, confirmed the hospitalization to Us, but no further details. The singer has been on a strenuous tour schedule supporting her critically-lauded comeback album. 'She's wanted to prove over and over to her fans that she can perform live after what happened on SNL last year,' says one source. The singer's performamce at the Radio Music Awards on Monday has been canceled, and her family is currently waiting for a diagnosis before deciding whether to fly to Japan, or have Simpson return to the States. One source says the likely diagnosis will be exhaustion.

Star Couples out and about


Mandy Moore and Zach Braf at the Urth Cafe in L.A. on Saturday. She's still carrying that Balenciaga bag. She kind of looks chunky and dare I say, pregnant in that billowly blouse. But I don't think she is.

Uber model, Gisele and her new man, Kelly Slater, uber surfer. Leo who?


Orlando Bloom and Kate Bosworth - what a pretty couple! In London at a film screening hosted by Mrs. Chris Martin aka Gwennie Paltrowl

Britney Spears


This is one of the worst photos of Britney that I have ever seen.

She looks bloated and fat. And it looks like she has tattoos on both arms and funky hair (courtesy of a weird printed shirt and the shadow of palm trees on the windshield).

Rumor Has It...

This movie stinks.
So much hype and publicity because of poor Jennifer Aniston; perhaps that's part of the problem.

I saw a preview of this movie last night and I have to say that I was disappointed. Actually, judging by the commercials, I could tell this was movie was going to stink. The plot is insipid, Jennifer Aniston cannot act (she just plays 'Rachel' in practically every movie) and Shirley Maclaine plays the same part she's played all year - wise-cracking, know-it-all grandmother. Mark Ruffalo is adorable and utterly wasted in his role.

At first I felt bad for the writer of this movie (Ted Griffin - Oceans 11) because he was also the director. But he was allegedly fired by Jennifer Aniston and some of the other producers and replaced by Rob Reiner. I'm a fan of Rob's. He's done amazing work but even he couldn't save this dud. But the writing is not funny and there are many boring scenes that take so long to make a point.

And to have to watch Jennifer Aniston in every scene of this movie was grating and painful. To say that she is aesthetically not pleasing would be an under-statement. She has that annoying voice and that face - but her face! I will admit that for a near 40-year-old, she has a great body but she has an awful, weird-looking face (weird jaw like half her face is missing) and the biggest, floppiest ears I have seen on anyone besides an elderly man. And this is the result of plastic surgery? What did she look like before the nose job, the injections, the implants, the bleached hair? There is a lot of severe air-brushing, makeup and lighting effects on the movie poster because she does not look good in the movie.

I'm so glad I didn't pay to see this movie. It plays like a long, bad sitcom episode. NWI - not worth it.

Lost Star's Troubles

Just like the character she plays on "Lost", Michelle Rodriguez continues to stir up trouble.

Last week, she was caught driving under the influence and this week, she was pulled over for speeding. She was issued a $357 fine and claims she's not guilty. She was going 83 mph in a 55 mph zone.

This is not her first speeding ticket since she's been in Hawaii. She paid off another ticket ($300 fine) for going 90 mph in a 35 mph zone! What is her hurry? Where is she speeding to? Is she late to work? Can't she get driven to work? If she keeps this up, she may be kicked off the island.

Wash that man right out of your hair



Jessica Simpson has a new hair style (her hair is a little blonder and a little shorter) and a new pair of lips!

It's one thing to try to get over a guy with a new haircut and color - everyone does that once in awhile - but to get your lips injected?!

Who does that? Why does she do it again and again?

Did Jessica Simpson get Marooned?


The Lowdown (Daily News) reports that Adam Levine, lead singer of Maroon 5, slept with Jessica Simpson in September 2004.

Allegedly, Simpson and Levine had their forbidden tryst in early September 2004, after a long night of partying with Jessica's personal assistant, CaCee Cobb, and M5 drummer Ryan Dusick at L.A.'s Sunset Marquis Hotel.

"Jessica and Adam were very close in the booth, and she kept putting her hand on his leg," says the eyewitness. "It was obvious … that something weird was going on. A few days later, Adam was talking about how he and Jessica had 'gotten it on' in the hotel that night. Apparently it was just kind of a fling." Yesterday, PR reps for Simpson and Levine vehemently denied any hanky-panky and insisted that the singers are just friends.

Adam is hot but I thought he was dating the girl in his videos.

Box Office Results

Weekend Box Office - 12/9 to 12/11

1. Chronicles of Narnia - $65.6 million - grand opening fueled by conservative Christians
2. Syriana - $11.7 million - increased box office take in its 3rd week perhaps due to Matt Damon's wedding publicity?
3. Harry Potter - $10.3 million - surpasses $244 million domestically
4. Walk the Line - $5.8 million - a hit at $77 million gross with a budget of only $28 million
5. Yours, Mine and Ours - $5 million - hanging in there until Cheaper by the Dozen 2 is released

Colin Farrell addicted to...


Colin Farrell has entered a rehab facility, his publicist Danica Smith said in a written statement. This shouldn't be surprising to anyone.

Everyone knows that Colin likes to party hard. Colin likes to drink and he likes his women.

So is he being treated for alcohol, drugs or a sex addiction? No comment from his publicist but they say he's addicted to 'pain killers'.

J Ho is a smoker


Jennifer Lopez looking bad and looking worse for smoking.
She always claimed that she didn't drink and didn't smoke.

But then again, she also lied about her age (she told everyone she was born in 1970 but really she was born in 1969).

Once a liar....


















And what on earth is that thing next to J Ho? I haven't seen hair like that since the hairy thing on the Adams Family.

Jen Burns Brad's Mementos

Jennifer Aniston likes fire. She burned her wedding dress, love letters and other reminders of Brad Pitt, on the beach outside her home in Malibu. So much for being a Friend.

Scarlett Johanssen - Red Carpet Disaster

Okay, okay, we know, you have boobs!
We get it already. Enough!

Next time, buy a dress that fits. You look like you're in pain.

Mr. and Mrs. Matt Damon


Following in his best friend's (Ben Affleck) footsteps, Matt Damon married his girlfriend, Lucky Lucy, because she is pregnant (Ben did the same thing with Jennifer Garner when she was expecting and showing).

Why do men only marry women when they're pregnant? It sends such a bad sign. Guess Mattie didn't want a little bastard on his hands.

Mattie opted for the cheap route and went to City Hall (Ben and Jen were married in the Caribbean). Although I think it would be amazing to be married to Matt, I'd still want a nice, white wedding. I'd feel cheated otherwise.

Matt Damon's girlfriend pregnant?


Access Hollywood is reporting that Matt Damon's girlfriend, Lucky Lucy Barriano, is three months pregnant.

She already has a child of out of wedlock, a six-year old daughter named, Alexa.

But who knows? Maybe Matt will make an honest woman out of her and marry her just like Ben Affleck did with Jennifer Garner (she was already pregnant too when they wed).

Scarlett not so subtle

Okay, this is kind of old news (from Sunday) but I'll still report/comment on it since pagesix is.

Buried in the NYT Sunday magazine, was a little article about Scarlett. It helps to point out that Scarlett's last movie, "The Island" tanked (internationally, it did well for some inexplicable reason). After the opening weekend, the director, Michael Bay, blamed the actors and their lack of 'star quality' for the dismal turnout.

In the article, Johansson says that last Christmas, Ewan McGregor (her co-star in "The Island") got her lots of presents for her Chihuahua and added that Bay "has enormous dogs. He needs them, he has a lot of enemies."

When asked if Bay gave her any gifts, Johansson laughed (we assume heartily and wickedly), but politely did not answer.

Earlier this year, Scarlett with her ex, Jared Leto (who is rumored to be dating La Lohan).

Be Careful Who You Hook Up With

One day, things are great. You're with a cute rocker-type having fun and snorting coke. The next day, everyone has the photos to prove it. You lose big $ modeling contracts and have to go to rehab and everyone knows about it. It could only get better, right? Nope. Now your cute ex-rocker who got you hooked on drugs wants to write about it.

Pete Doherty is reportedly planning to write a book about ex-sweetie Kate Moss. She’s not happy. “He’s a user in every sense of the word. He makes me sick,” the model said of her recently-arrested ex. “Yes, I loved him, but I was taken in by his little-boy-lost routine. He has nearly cost me everything.”

Good luck Kate. Let's hope Pete's too f****d up to write coherently or remember details.


the couple in happier days

Which Desperate Housewife Doesn't Eat?

Which one is it?

For awhile there have been rumors that the "Desperate Housewives" don't get along.

Fueling that rumor are comments from Nicolette Sheridan, who plays Edie, on the show.

The “Desperate Housewives” star was asked about her appetite, as well as others on the cast. She loves to eat, she said, but of her co-stars she added, “some eat and some don’t.” . .

Hmm, I wonder who it could be? One actress has already admitted to an eating disorder in the her early teens (Felicity Huffmann) so that rules her out. Eva Longoria has a healthy appetite (as evidenced by the cellulite on her derriere/upper thighs in recent photograpsh) so that leaves her out. And it's not Nicolette...

Shopping to Dull the Pain


Nothing like spending $30,000 in a minute (what a steal for vintage LV!) to make you feel better.

Jessica Simpson scored an antique Louis Vuitton trunk the other day in L.A.

Wonder what she's going to put in it? Nick's 'junk'?

Wish she'd bought a new outfit - leggings under a frilly, brown polka-dot dress? Yuck.

Leo and Sienna?



Are Sienna Miller and Leonardo DiCaprio an item?

Seems so according to reports from NY.

Sienna famously split with Jude Law after the wanker cheated on her with the nanny and
Leo was dumped by Gisele for allegedly cheating on her for years and not wanting to settle down.
He likes models and she's as skinny as one.
They both seem frivolous and up for fun hanging out at Bungalow 8 after hours.
Seems like a perfect match.
