1. We can’t handle the truth… After reports surfaced last week that Lindsay Lohan and Harry Morton had split following a fight at a Los Angeles club, the star’s publicist quickly put out a “They are together” statement. But Harry told Extra, “We’re just sort of taking a little breather right now.” Ouch. “A lot of people started saying we’re engaged and it put a lot of pressure on things. We need a little space,” Harry added. “I’m a very private person. I’m sure she (Lindsay) has dealt with it (publicity) for years but it puts a lot of pressure on me.”
2. To eat or not to eat… Nicole Richie is slamming reports she entered a rehab to treat an eating disorder. “I do not have an eating disorder, and I don’t know how many times I have to say it,” Nicole retorts. “I don’t know why or how this rumor started.” In defense of the Internet rumor mill, Nicole has admitted she’s seeing a nutritionist and has therapy sessions in a bid to control her stress levels and gain weight. And that’s how the rumors start: Who needs therapy to know to eat?
3. How do you solve a problem like Anna Nicole… You marry her? Anna Nicole Smith married her longtime attorney Howard K. Stern in Nassau, Bahamas. Just this week, Stern told CNN’s Larry King he was the real father of Anna Nicole‘s baby girl, disputing claims by her ex-boyfriend Larry Birkhead that the child was his. Nancy Grace needs to get on this case because everything about the paternity revelation and the marriage seems fishy.
4. Brand-spanking new baby daddy drama… “I AM THE PROUD FATHER… The whole thing is laughable. It was obvious that even Larry King didn’t believe what Howard K. Stern was saying.” Photog Larry Birkhead claims to be the real father of Anna Nicole‘s baby daughter—and he’s has demanded a paternity test to prove it. According to a recent Hollywood.com poll, 80 percent of users agreed that Birkhead was most likely the father.
5. Old baby daddy drama gets the kibosh… When Suri made a splash on the cover of Vanity Fair last month, tongues started wagging about her uncanny resemblance to Katie Holmes‘ former fiancé Chris Klein (it’s those slinty eyes!). “I’ve never had anyone ask me that before,” Chris responded when asked about rumors he could be the baby’s father. “It’s definitely (Tom Cruise), and they look so beautiful. I’m really happy for them.”
6. The not-so-divine secrets of the ya-ya sisterhood… “I was weeping. I was so proud. I couldn’t be more proud of her. My face is swollen, I have butterflies, and she pulled it off perfectly.” That’s Jessica Simpson gushing about sister Ashlee‘s West End debut as Roxie Hart in Chicago. OK, this sisterly love thing was sweet at first, but now reeks of “see, we’re not rivals.”
7. Here’s to love… Rumors of a rekindled romance between George Clooney and Renee Zellweger have surfaced after onlookers told PageSix.com the couple was canoodling at the Tower Bar restaurant in Los Angeles’ Sunset Tower Hotel. But will George break her heart, just like Jim Carrey and Kenny Chesney did? Probably, which is too bad for the Down with Love star because we think they make a cute couple.
8. She’ll need more from life… As of next year, Catherine Zeta-Jones will no longer be the face of T-Mobile. The phone giant reportedly wants a more down-to-earth persona to plug their new Internet phone products. Guess we’ll be seeing more of Catherine on the big screen now that she lost her lucrative multi-million-dollar contract. That’s a shame—we mean for her, of course.
9. But does he wanna really really really wanna zigazig ha… After a whirlwind three-month romance, Eddie Murphy has declared his love for Scary Spice, English girlfriend Melanie Brown! Speaking at a business meeting at a Beverly Hills restaurant, Eddie announced, “I am madly in love with Mel–[cue abrupt scratch sound of needle being carelessly dragged across a record] but there are no wedding plans.” That’s gotta hurt.
10. Expletives fly for free… Supermodel Naomi Campbell was reportedly furious when she landed in Sydney on a flight from Bangkok because she thought Qantas airline employees had tipped off the press about her arrival. According to the Sydney Daily Telegraph, Campbell yelled at a flight attendant, trailing her with her luggage trolley, “F**k off! I am never flying Qantas again!” Naomi is rich and hot—so why is she so mad all the time?
