Haylie & Brody: Just Friends?

2007-08-01T15:11:00.000-07:00

wish Haylie Duff and Brody Jenner would come out already. At last week's Tweety boutique opening, Haylie told me she was single and that she and Brody were only buds. A week prior at a Hills barbeque, Brody insisted he and Haylie were just friends, "best friends" to be exact. Yet, a week before that in Malibu, a source very close to Brody said he was dating Haylie. Now, I hear the two were "all over each other" in Las Vegas over the weekend. This same Sin City source tells me Brody's stepsis Kim Kardashian articulated that Haylie and Brody were indeed an item. It's understandable Haylie wouldn't want to make the news official, considering Hilary Duff told Ryan Seacrest she would kill her sis if she started dating Brody. But why hang all over him then? Are friends with benefits okay?

Saturday, at Stuff Magazine's Music Issue Celebration at Tao Beach, Brody couldn't get his cast wet, so he just hung out in a cabana. The minute Haylie arrived, I'm told the cabana doors were immediately shut. Wonder went on there?
That night, the duo, along with Kim and Frankie Delgado, dined at Tao Asian Bistro before heading upstairs to continue the Stuff celebration at Tao nightclub. They danced and flirted heavily, my source says.

Looks like our fave greaseball source knew what the ef he was talkin' about back in June when he spilled the baby beans, eh?

The Kardashian and Jenner Clans Go Brady Bunch

2007-08-01T15:01:00.000-07:00

Though her seductive lips and voluptuous body are adored by the paparazzi, Kim Kardashian has surprisingly never starred in a reality show. Her sister Kourtney did E!'s Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive and stepbro Brody Jenner made up for failing to entertain us in The Princes of Malibu by getting himself a regular spot on The Hills.

But the time has come for Kim to get her piece of the reality pie. "It’s basically a reality version of The Brady Bunch," she tells me of a new show in the works that follows the lives of her nine siblings. (Mother Kris Jenner had four kids with O.J. attorney Robert Kardashian before marrying gold medalist Bruce Jenner, who had four offspring of his own. Then the newlyweds had two children together.)
Though Kim can't disclose which network will carry the show, she promises hilarity. "We're all so different," she tells me outside of Mood. "[Her sister] Khloe’s, like, hysterical and says these ridiculous things. Kourtney is such a bitch. I’m in between. Brody’s so wild. The two little ones are adorable...It’s just such a good mix."

But the show isn't the reason Kim strapped on a red dress tonight for the cameras at Myspace.com's Inspi(Red) Event. She's using her celebrity to help spread the word about women and children living with AIDS in Africa. Kim learned the importance of AIDS awareness as a teenager when a girl in her high school was diagnosed with the disease. The girl's boyfriend broke up with her; her friends and family disowned her; she started taking medication, and then six months later, she found out her records had been mixed up with someone else's. "I think information is really powerful," says Kim. "I think that if you just know information, you can either fix it or prevent it."

Tom Cruise, ex-wife Kidman both filming in Berlin

2007-07-28T03:03:00.000-07:00

Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise and his ex-wife Nicole Kidman will be working on separate films in Berlin from September, German daily Bild reported on Friday.

Cruise earlier this month began shooting "Valkyrie", a film about a failed plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler in 1944, in which he portrays Nazi-resistance hero Count Claus Schenk von Stauffenberg.
Shooting is set to continue until the end of October.
The decision to cast Cruise in the role has caused anger in Germany because of his strong links to the Church of Scientology, which is regarded here as a sect.

Bild said Kidman will come to the German capital in September to start work on the film version of "The Reader", the award-winning 1995 novel by German author Bernhard Schlink which deals with later generations' difficulty in understanding the Holocaust.
Kidman and Cruise divorced in 2001. He has since married Katie Holmes and she country singer Keith Urban.

Britney aide ticketed in Vegas scuffle

2007-07-28T03:00:00.000-07:00

A bodyguard for Britney Spears must face a battery charge after he scuffled with two men trying to photograph the singer and her young sons at a Las Vegas Strip resort, police said Friday.

The bodyguard, Cesar Julio Camera, 37, was accused of grabbing and punching one photographer and pushing another into a wall about 11:30 a.m. Thursday at the spa at the Wynn Las Vegas hotel-casino.

Camera was issued a misdemeanor battery summons after the scuffle.
No serious injuries resulted, police said. Neither Spears, 25, nor the children — 22-month-old Sean Preston Federline and 10-month-old Jayden James Federline — were reported to have been hurt.
"There were no signs of injuries to her or the children, nor is she listed as a victim," Las Vegas police Sgt. John Loretto said of the singer, songwriter, dancer and actress. She is listed in police reports as a witness, along with one man and five other women.
"The only person issued a citation was Ms. Spears' private security guard, Mr. Camera," Loretto said.
A representative at Jive Records, Spears' record label, did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment, and a Wynn resort spokeswoman declined comment.

A lawyer for Spears' estranged husband, Kevin Federline, also did not immediately respond to telephone and e-mail messages seeking comment on reports that Spears should not have had the children in Las Vegas. The couple are involved in divorce proceedings in California that according to several reports include restrictions on traveling out-of-state with the boys.
Police said the scuffle, which was captured on security videotape, occurred after Andrew Deetz, 24, and Kyle Henderson, 23, approached Spears and her entourage in a hallway and a hotel security guard told them to put their photo equipment away.

Henderson allegedly bumped Camera, who was holding Spears' son, Sean.
Spears screamed, Camera "shouldered" Henderson against a wall, gave the child to Spears, and ran after Henderson and Deetz, according to police reports.
Police said Camera punched Deetz, who showed officers a lump and abrasion on his forehead. Henderson was not reported to have been hurt.

Loretto said he did not know when Camera was scheduled to respond to the summons. He could face up to six months in county jail and a $1,000 fine if convicted.
Spears has been involved in several recent confrontations with paparazzi. She apologized earlier this month for attacking a photographer's car with an umbrella in February, saying she had been preparing to try out for a movie part and got carried away. The umbrella incident took place during a period in which she also shaved her head, got new tattoos and was seen partying hard in Los Angeles clubs.

No glamour for Nicole Richie in jail

2007-07-28T02:55:00.000-07:00

GLENDALE, Calif. - For Nicole Richie, four days in jail will be an intermission in her glamorous lifestyle: No miniskirts, no stiletto heels and no time off for good behavior. House arrest is not an option.

For her wrong-way freeway trek in a Mercedes-Benz, Richie was slapped Friday with a sentence of nearly four days in jail, a fine of $2,048 and orders to attend drug and alcohol rehab.
"She's not gonna be coming in here wearing a miniskirt and pumps," Burbank police Sgt. Thor Merich said, describing a spartan lifestyle that would await her if she goes to that city's jail.
"We pretty much go the bare minimum," he said.
Prosecutors said Richie will serve the time in a city jail rather than a county lockup. She has the choice of any local jail in Los Angeles County that will accept her.

On Friday, a somber and subdued Richie softly pleaded guilty in Superior Court to a misdemeanor charge of driving under the influence of drugs in a deal with prosecutors that helped her avoid a potential year in jail on her second DUI conviction.
But Richie, who's rumored to be pregnant, couldn't avoid a lecture from Superior Court Commissioner Steven K. Lubell as he gave her 96 hours in jail, then took off six hours for time already served following her December arrest.
He said she will have to follow the law now or wind up in jail for a year.
For now, she will serve less than four days. In jail, Richie will be able to wear most of her own clothing but anything that might be used as a weapon will be taken away, including shoelaces, belts, high heels and underwire bras.

The waiflike reality show star was conservatively dressed Friday in a loose black trapeze style dress which skimmed her body and kept observers guessing about whether she's pregnant. Her blond hair was pulled back in a knot at her neck just above a scroll tattoo with the name "Richie" and a small red bow.
She arrived and left court with her boyfriend, Joel Madden, surrounded by a cordon of burly private bodyguards.
The co-star of TV's "The Simple Life" and daughter of pop singer Lionel Richie listened attentively as Lubell told her she was lucky that her wrong-way escapade had not killed or maimed someone.

With the tone of a stern father, he said what she did was "pretty scary," and could have resulted in the death of her or others.
"The court does not want anything to happen to you," he said.
Richie could face a murder charge if she continues to drive under the influence of drugs or alcohol and someone dies, he said.
"I hope that never, ever happens," the commissioner added.
Richie did not respond to his remarks. It was her second DUI conviction. The first, in June 2003, involved alcohol.

She must complete her jail time by Sept. 28 and return to court on Feb. 20, 2008 to show she has complied with the rest of the sentence.
"You are not to drive with any measurable amount of alcohol or drugs in your system," Lubell told her. "You are not to drive without a driver's license."
He said the state Department of Motor Vehicles would decide whether to suspend her license.
Richie was arrested on Dec. 11 after witnesses reported seeing her black Mercedes-Benz sport utility vehicle headed the wrong way on a freeway in Burbank. The California Highway Patrol said they found her parked in the car pool lane.

Richie told authorities she had smoked marijuana and taken the prescription painkiller Vicodin, a CHP officer said at the time. No drugs were found on her or in the car.
Jane Robison, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County district attorney's office, said house arrest was not an option. She will have to stay for the full sentence, pay for her incarceration and abide by rules that limit visitors and perks.
While each city may have slightly different rules on handling its inmates, "a jail is a jail," Robison said.
That means it's unlikely that Richie will be allowed to chat on a cell phone, order in gourmet food or schedule behind-bars manicures.

Just like in the movies, Richie could only see people during visiting hours and would talk to them through a thick sheet of glass, at least at the Burbank jail.
If Richie does her time in Burbank, she would probably be alone in a 4-by-10-foot cell because of safety concerns over her notoriety and because the jail has only limited facilities for women.
If it turns out Richie is pregnant, however, the jail would be unable to accommodate her medical needs and she would have to go to county jail — probably the same Lynwood lockup where party-girl pal Paris Hilton did part of her time.
At a city jail, for about $75 a day, Richie would have access to a collect-call phone, sleep on a metal bunk with a 2- or 3-inch-thick mattress and eat three prison meals a day (lunch fare often is a ham-and-cheese sandwich and an apple).
But if Richie thinks about turning her stay into another episode of "The Simple Life," she can forget it.
"There'd be no camera crew allowed," Merich said.

Steve Carell knows how to use a shoe phone

2007-07-28T02:49:00.000-07:00

SAN DIEGO - Steve Carell knows how to use a shoe phone. Not only did he grow up watching "Get Smart," but he's made calls with the device as secret agent Maxwell Smart in the movie remake of the 1960s TV show.

Carell told a crowd of Comic-Con fans Friday that he's "very psyched" about the film, which he described as a "comedic 'Bourne Identity.'"
"It's probably the most fun I've ever had doing anything in my life," said the 43-year-old actor. "I have such respect for Don Adams and what he did, and I think we're all trying to honor the original and take absolutely nothing away from it.
"Frankly, I don't think I could ever be as good as he was. I'm just trying to do the best that I can within the context of the movie and it's an honor to be able to do it."
The film, due next summer, retains the feel of the original TV show, said director Peter Segal.
"That show was born in the Cold War era, but we've got a lot of political things to satirize today," he said.

The "Get Smart" cast includes Anne Hathaway as Agent 99, Alan Arkin as The Chief, Terence Stamp as Sigfried, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as Agent 23 (a new character) and Masi Oka as Bruce "the gadget guy."
Jaime the Robot and Agent 13, both characters from the original show, are also part of the new movie, Segal said, and Bernie Koppel (Sigfried in the TV series) makes a cameo appearance.
"It's be both extremely funny but there will be action and jeopardy," Carell said. "I'm very psyched about it."
The best thing about playing a secret agent?
"I get to look like I am athletic, coordinated, intelligent and sexy," Carell said, "when in real life, I am none of the above."

Jessica Biel won't strip

2007-07-26T13:10:00.001-07:00

Jessica Biel won't strip off on screen.

The stunning actress, who is dating Justin Timberlake, is not prepared to flash her flesh on film and admits she has been overlooked for roles because of her no nudity stance.
Jessica said: "I'm sure I've lost some roles because I don't do it. The other day I read a script that required some nudity, something topless. It's probably going to be a great movie but I just don't want to do it."
Although the 25-year-old actress refuses to bare her curves, she is happy to be thought of as a sex symbol.
Jessica - who starred in the remake of 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' and 'The Illusionist' - said: "It's extremely flattering to be thought of in that way. It's nice to be wanted and desired, you think, 'I'm being accepted as a woman now.' That's kind of cool."
Jessica was recently ranked number one in Stuff magazine's 100 Sexiest Women 2007.

Brad, Angelina & Kids Go Bowling in France

2007-07-26T13:06:00.000-07:00

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie pinned down some family time at a French bowling alley Monday as their vacation rolled to an end.
Before jetting off from their 10-day vacation in the western Charente/Dordogne region, the couple took over France’s smallest family fun center “Le Palace Vert” with friend Mariane Pearl and her son.

Le Palace Vert’s owner Patrick Bernard says that once they arrived, the Jolie-Pitts, Pearl and the four children (Maddox, 5, Pax-Thien, 3, and Zahara, 2, and Adam Pearl, 5) hit the lanes.
Pitt was especially attentive, Bernard adds, and encouraged all the youngsters whenever they hit a pin.

“At one point though, because the children don’t have the strength to always get the ball down the lane, it sometimes stops. Brad thought he’d go down the lane to push it along. He slipped and fell on his back. Hard,” Bernard says.
Pitt survived the spill, but Bernard’s wife was disappointed to have missed her “only chance in life to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to Brad Pitt.”
While Jolie spent time with Pearl, whom she portrayed in A Mighty Heart, Pitt demonstrated his air-hockey prowess.

“Brad was particularly good at it,” Bernard says. “He and the three boys played two-a-side teams against one another for almost an hour.”
Bernard adds: “With only two lanes we’re certainly the smallest bowling in France, so we’re still having trouble realizing we spent Monday afternoon with the most famous couple in the world.”
Before leaving, Jolie and Pitt personally thanked the Bernards – speaking a little French – and signed a Livre d’Or with an inscription to the couple’s 15-year-old daughter.
This wasn’t the first amusement area the crew was spotted enjoying recently. Pitt made a scene in the bouncy castle when they all spent a day at the Aventure-Parc in Massignac.

Spears' dress mess and bathroom TMI

2007-07-26T13:04:00.000-07:00

NEW YORK -- The folks at OK! magazine say the Britney Spears photo shoot was quite the freak-fest.Spears, 25, wiped grease on a dress at the shoot, made frequent trips to the bathroom without bothering to close the door and watched as her terrier puppy unloaded on a $6,700 designer gown, OK! says.The puppy pooping produced cries of horror.
I wasn't in the room, but I was there to hear the upset shrieks of the stylist," editor in chief Sarah Ivens said Wednesday. "Her assistant dealt with it in the end, after being asked to take care of it. They had to be asked to clear it up."In addition to treating one dress like "a napkin," Spears also complained that the high-end clothing put together for the July 19 fashion shoot wasn't sexy, short or tight enough, the magazine said.After about three hours, the pop tart bolted, walking away with more than $14,000 of borrowed apparel, Ivens said."I've never seen anything like it," she said. "It's definitely the most bizarre shoot I've ever been on."Representatives for Spears had offered an exclusive interview that was intended as a career comeback for her, Ivens said."What actually transpired on the day was a shock to us and left me and the whole crew feeling quite shocked and sad, really," she said.A representative at Jive Records, Spears' record label, didn't return a phone call or e-mail.

Lindsay Lohan Says She is Innocent

2007-07-26T13:02:00.000-07:00

In the wake of her arrest for DUI and possession of cocaine early Tuesday morning, Lindsay Lohan offered a swift and simple explanation: “I am innocent.”Asked by TV’s Access Hollywood late Tuesday if there was anything the actress, 21, wanted “to get out there” about the charges against her, Lohan responded in an email to the show’s Billy Bush, who had just spoken about her on CNN:
“Yes. I am innocent … did not do drugs they’re not mine.”
Amid reports from police that they had received a 911 call from the mother of Lohan’s former personal assistant, saying that Lohan was chasing her in an SUV, CN, , Lohan also said in her email, “I was almost hit by my assistant Tarin’s mom.”

Police found Lohan and the woman in a “heated debate” in the parking lot of Santa Monica’s Civic Auditorium at about 1:30 a.m., according to Santa Monica police Lt. Alex Padilla.
Lohan concluded her brief message with, “I appreciate everyone giving me my privacy.”
Lohan was arrested early Tuesday in Santa Monica, Calif., and released on bail facing misdemeanor charges of driving under the influence and driving with a suspended license, and felony cocaine possession. If convicted on all charges, she could face up to six years behind bars, NBC News reports.

Lohan’s parents have both expressed their despair over their daughter’s troubles. Dina Lohan told TV’s The Insider that she is “sick over this,” while estranged father Michael Lohan told CNN’s Larry King Live on Tuesday that he feels partly responsible for Lindsay’s problems.
“Of course I do,” he said. “If I didn’t I’d be a liar. I made some really stupid choices in my life.”
This was Lohan’s second drinking-related arrest in three months. Her attorney, Blair Berk, said that the actress – who had worn an alcohol-monitoring ankle bracelet since her July 13 release from 45 days in rehab – had suffered a relapse and is “presently receiving medical care.”

Skivvy-dipping, soiling an expensive outfit and sailing with her sons sans lifejackets – it was a wet n’ wild week for Britney Spears.
And this time her antics could have some serious consequences.
On July 18 the pop star, 25, and her unidentified blonde gal pal stopped off in Malibu for an impromptu afternoon dip (with Spears wearing only her skivvies!) before a crowd of photographers.
