Nick and Jessica Over

It's official! The rumors were true!
Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson have decided to split.

Kind of sad really. The media helped 'create' this couple but they also helped 'destroy' them.

Although, given that she was a virgin, it's hard to believe she'd want to stay with the same man forever.

Harry Potter # 1

Harry Potter scared up an impressive $101.4 million this weekend. I saw the movie and I have to say that I enjoyed it even though there were some genuinely scary parts - Ralph Fiennes is hideously gross and unrecognizable as Lord Valdemort.

Weekend Box Office - November 18 to 20
1. Harry Potter - $101.4 million - impressive opening
2. Walk the Line - $22 million - favorable reviews for strong performances and early talk of Oscars
3. Chicken Little - $14.8 million - nearing the $100 million mark within its 3rd week of release
4. Derailed - $6.5 million - aptly named flick continues to decline sharply and dilute the earnings power of its Friend's star
5. Zathura - $5.1 million - Jumanji wannabe gets leftover Harry and Chicken crowd

It is interesting to note that "Pride and Prejudice" was in 10th place earning $2.1 million in limited release - very impressive. Jane Austen continues to be a worthwhile literary excursion even if we have the sexed-up version (the Brits have the tamer version of the movie but due to protests, they will get an edited version that includes the all-important Darcy/Elizabeth kiss).

Weekend Box Office

Kids ruled the box office as kid flicks took the top spots this weekend. Chicken Little was #1 again derailing any hope of a Friend's comeback and a rapper's delight.

Weekend Box Office, Nov. 11 - 13
1. Chicken Little - $32 million (raking in $72 million in two weeks)
2, Zathura - $14 million (modest debut by ex-Swinger Jon Favreau)
3. Derailed - $12.8 million (disappointing results by an old Friend)
4. Get Rich or Die Tryin' - $12.5 million (tepid debut for a rapper)
5. Jarhead - $12.3 million (decent results for war flick)

Brunettes Rule

La Lohan at TRL. She looks sooo much better as a brunette; hope she stays with this color.





















Marisa Tomei and Catherine Zeta-Jones looking lovely and the Glamour Awards in New York November 4th.

Is it me or does CZJ look younger and younger every time we see her?



















Courtney Cox shopping at James Perse.






















Liv Tyler and her dad at Nello's on the Upper East Side. She looks great even though she hasn't lost all the baby fat.





















Johnny Depp looking great (as always) at the premiere of "The Libertine".

Happy Birthday Matthew McConaughey

M&M turns 36 today. He is looking good. Lucky Penelope.

His ex-girlfriend, Sandra Bullock, once said "Matthew looks gorgeous naked. He should be naked as much as possible."
We agree.

Why hasn't he bared all in a movie?

He does like to get naked and play the bongos on a regular basis.

Come on Mattie, indulge us!

Jared Leto and Lindsay Lohan

So they're making a movie together! Is that why they've been hanging out? Is this a publicity stunt or are they really an item?

It was just announced that Lindsay Lohan and Jared Leto will star in a new movie about John Lennon called "Chapter 27".

If he's playing John Lennon does that mean Lindsay Lohan will be Yoko Ono???? Scary.

And does Jared prefer Lindsay skinny or 'healthy'? And which version will she be for the movie? And will she be red, blonde or brunette? Let us know Lindsay!

Given that he dated Scarlett (pictured) maybe he does like his women curvy (although Cameron Diaz is not curvy).

Justin Timberlake

JT was on TRL yesterday hawking his new clothing line.




















Wow, he looks soooo young.


I know he's young but he has great skin and the loveliest blue eyes. I know, I know, I sound like an N'Sync fan.


But Cameron Diaz is one lucky woman.

Trick or Treat?

No, Johnny Depp is not in costume. This is how he dresses everyday. But he's still a treat to me.



















La Hohan trying to fire things up in this costume. I think it's just so-so. I don't like the red stockings and the hat makes her looks dorky. And is she wearing a wig? Her hair looks so dark almost black. Definitely, a trick.




















Heidi Klum looks scary but her new hubby (#2 if you're keeping track), Seal, looks good. A trick and a treat.






















Jason Biggs as Dorothy. Definitely a trick.























My neighbor, Liv Tyler, and her son Milo. They both look adorable. Treats.







Justin and Cameron at their own Halloween party at Marquee. Heard they were wearing masks a la "Eyes Wide Shut". I'll say they're treats even though she can be tricky.

Jessica Simpson and Therapy

So Jessica Simpson admitted that the rumors about her marriage drove her to see a therapist (she's quoted in Teen People).

Um, if she doesn't know that Chicken of the Sea isn't Chicken, then how is she going to understand a word the psychiatrist is telling her?

Jessica Simpson personifies the 'dumb blonde' stereotype to a T! Fake blonde hair? Check. Fake big boobs? Check. Zero intellect? Check. Fake marriage? Check.

This is the cover. Is it me or does her sister look like a drag queen? Poor thing.

Christian Slater - what happened?

I was an 80s child, there I admit it and I had the biggest crush on Christian Slater - the Christian Slater of "Heathers" fame. The cool, cocky Christian Slater who made Winona Ryder weak in the knees. Not the 2005 Christian Slater who fights with his wife, frequents strip clubs, hangs out at frat-boy bars on the upper east side and grabs 50 year old asses (charges were just dropped in the ass-groping incident).

And now he's taking it up a notch - getting drunk and falling off of the world's most famous sl*t's roof (I refuse to give her anymore press by naming her). Or as Perez Hilton reported, getting tasered by the police because he wouldn't come down.
How much lower can you go Christian? How much worse is it going to get?

Plus, he's not aging well. Take a look at this picture. He looks so dopey. Yes, Dopey - like one of the dwarves.

You're ruining my 80s memories Christian! Can't you go back to being cool? Please?
