Kristen and Dakota Are Totes BFF

90617nn3_stewart_k_b_gr_05 You know what? This is exactly what needed to happen to Dakota. She's in LA filming Runaways with the coolest girl in school, Kristen Stewart, and the two seem to have gotten awfully chummy during this time. I've been waiting for years for this perfect little child to release that dark, dirty, tabloid-friendly side that I know she has deep inside her. I think K-Stew's gonna be the one to release the dragon -- Puff, the Magic Dragon, if ya catch my drift. And yet, I'm torn. There's a part of me...

Carly Smithson to Become New Evanescence Frontwoman

The band's former lead vocalist -- the huge-voiced Amy Lee -- left the group to pursue other projects, so now they're teaming up with Idol sixth-place finisher Carly Smithson to form a new band, The Fallen. "I kept getting told that 'you don't have the rock voice, you can't do rock music,' " Smithson told the Los Angeles Times. "But it's everything I am. It's everything I listen to.

Look Out Ladies: Jennifer “Can’t Find Love” Hewitt Is Writing a Book About Dating

jennifer_love_hewitt_lg J-Love may have wormed her slimy little way into Wendie's heart, but I continue to carry my distaste for her. And I am EXTREMELY SCARED for women everywhere now that I hear she's writing a book about dating. With plenty of dating experience under her belt, Jennifer Love Hewitt has decided to write a book, titled The Day I Shot Cupid, addressing romantic relationships that will include everything from tips on text-flirting and how to start over after a breakup. "I thought it was time to share the real story of what I've learned n...

Pics of Jon Gosselin Smoking … Weed?

Jon Gosselin Well, that's sure not how I ever smoked a cigarette. I have seen people smoke pot that way. Just saying. We told you earlier in the day that Jon was spotted in Manhattan smoking a cigarette, but I'm getting the distinct feeling that's not the only thing he smokes. Check out these pics of Jon Gosselin puffing away at something outside the family's house in Reading, Pa. He also greets a woman with a hug outside their home. [gallery] Images via INF...

Bruno Premieres in London

90617m7_cohen_b-gr_01 Sacha Baron Cohen's Bruno doesn't open in the US until July, but it premiered yesterday in London. Despite all the buzz about whether or not the film fairly represented the gay community (uhhhh, I'm gonna go with "no," because it's a satire, guys), the early reviews are, I imagine, exactly what Sacha was hoping they'd be. There's this, from the BBC: "Sometimes you question whether he has finally crossed the line into offensive bad taste - and, latterly, whether you were right to laugh...

Angelina and Brad Donate $1M to Pakistani Refugees

Angelina Jolie Speaks at UN World Refugee Day Pictures Photos Out of respect for their generous donation, I declined to use the term "Brangelina" in my headline. You're welcome, Jolie-Pitts. That's what a million bucks buys you in this economy. The patrons saints of everything shelled out the $1M to the U.N. to help survivors of the violence in Pakistan. Over 2 million Pakistanis have been driven from their homes this year by fighting between government troops and Taliban militants in the northwest of the country. Angelina was also present at the World...

Denise Richards Is, Like, Spiritual

57623957deniserichards6182009101936am Cindy Adams recently interviewed Denise Richards who, if you can believe it, is gearing up for another season of her E! series It's Complicated.  The main focus of their talk, other than the part about how John Stamos is really great in bed, had to do with Denise's experiences with the afterworld. I've just become friendly with a psychic medium my mother met shortly before she passed on. I wanted to believe Mom was still around. I wanted a reading. I wanted to believe in some form of reincarna...

Jon & Kate: Trying to Save the Ratings with Divorce Announcement?

Kate Gosselin As Wendie reported yesterday, ratings for Jon & Kate Plus Eight are nose-diving after a huge initial premiere. What to do now? Make a big announcement, apparently. “Jon and Kate Gosselin have an announcement.” Those are the words that appear on the screen in a new TLC promo for a one-hour Jon & Kate Plus Eight special episode, airing Monday (9 p.m. ET). In the spot, Kate Gosselin says, “Recently, we’ve made some life-changing decisions — decisions that will affect every member of our...

Liv Tyler Interferes. It Doesn’t Go Well.

Liv Tyler Check out these pictures that INFphoto captured! Liv Tyler was out on the streets of Los Angeles yesterday when she saw an older woman yelling at a crying toddler.  Maybe because she has been in a superhero movie (Incredible Hulk -- was he a superhero?) she thought she needed to save the day.  After approaching the child to make sure she was okay, the screaming woman told Liv to mind her business.  Tyler returned to her car to call 911.  Can you imagine how that phone call went...

Oh. Rory.

16843100alexisbledel618200983025am This morning while I was fervently Googling naked images of Bradley Cooper trolling the Internet looking for some pictures of my boyfriend Bradley Cooper, I came across photos from last night's Whitney Contemporaries Art Party.  Question:  What in the Rory Gilmore was Alexis Bledel thinking  wearing that dress?  Chevron designs shooting out from one's hips is never, ever, ever a good idea.  My fiance -- yes, I upgraded him -- was there as well as Amber Tamblyn, Ali Larter, Gretchen Mo...
