George Clooney was on the gurney again, but this time he wasn’t riding it while giving CPR to a gun shot victim. He and his girlfriend were in a motorcycle accident, and there isn’t a clear picture of who was at fault - Clooney, or the driver of the other vehicle. Clooney broke a rib, and his girlfriend broke her foot. Both Clooney and the other driver claim the other person tried to pass illegally.
American Idol co-creator and judge has made an announcement that should make all of the US heave a sigh of relief. He will not be having children. No word on whether or not his partner Terri Seymour is happy with this decision, but I can only imagine any hypothetical children of his would be. “I’m sorry, but you are the most pathetic excuse of a child I’ve ever seen.”
Hulk Hogan, former pro wrestler and star of the VHI series Hogan Knows Best, was just dealt a huge surprise. His wife left their home in Florida for a trip to California. While she was there, she filed for divorce - without telling Hogan to begin with. Hogan was informed by a reporter in his home town of Clearwater, Florida. Ouch.
There’s a new biopic in the works - this time on the life and times of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner. Who would be your ideal pick to portray Hef? Two names have been mentioned in relation to the project: Tom Cruise and Leonardo DiCaprio. I would think that the studio would be smarter to cast Leo, since Cruise seems to have outlived his approval with the public.
She’s already lost custody of her two boys, and now Britney Spears will not be allowed to drive them in her car. Her ex-husband, Kevin Federline, and his legal team called a special hearing to point out her driving skills - or lack thereof. This resulted in the judge handing down a ruling that she can not drive the boys in her car. When is this woman going to learn that if she wants to parent her kids, she better shape up?
Chris Noth, the famous Mr. Big of Sex and the City is about to become a father. His representative announced this week that Noth and his girlfriend, Tara Wilson, are expecting their first baby. Noth has always been pretty tight-lipped when it comes to his personal life, and we won’t find much different - no other details have been released.
Well, J. K. Rowling isn’t done making headlines with her Harry Potter series. She recently appeared at Carnegie Hall as the final stop of her US book tour to celebrate Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and when asked about Albus Dumbledore’s past love life, she dropped the bombshell that she always imagined the Hogwarts Headmaster as gay. No word on how many parents were pissed about having to have that talk with their kids long before they expected to.
Elizabeth Hasselbeck, the conservative co-host of ABC’s The View, announced that she’ll be taking her maternity leave a little earlier than expected. She is pregnant with her second child with husband, Tim. The due date isn’t until early November, but since Tim was just signed as quarterback with the Arizona Cardinals, she needs some extra time to get settled in to a new home in Phoenix.
This is sad - I really thought this was one Hollywood marriage that had a chance. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillipe are officially no longer married. They just need to finalize a few little details - like custody of the kids and how to split up the money. The fact that she’s single should make Reese happy, though, since she’s been dating Jake Gyllenhaal for the past few months. Well, she hasn’t confirmed it - but everyone pretty much assumes it to be the case.
The up-till-now squeaky clean star of Disney’s High School Musical, Vanessa Hudgens, has admitted that the naked pictures of her making the rounds of the internet are actually her, not photo-shopped in any way. No word on who the pics were intended for. She is dating her HSM co-star Zac Efron, who also starred in Hairspray.
