At what point did People magazine get the monopoly on celebrity coming-out stories? Anyway, meet McGay. [Pop on the Pop]

Prince Harry’s new girlfriend, Chelsy Davy, wonders aloud if woolly mammoths are extinct. Their season of Newlyweds is going to rock so hard. [CelebSlam]

The photo shoot theme for this week’s ANTM was “celebrity couples.” Demonstrating the level of taste and subtelty we have come to associate so inextricably with the weekly, hour-long pitch for Tyra Banks’ surely forthcoming magazine, the girl who came out as a lesbian the day before was asked to be — I’m serious — Ellen and Portia di Rossi. [MollyGood]

Nicole Richie prefers to spend her time in restaurants getting laid in the bathroom, mostly because it’s the farthest she can get from the food. [Cele|Bitchy]

Nicky Hilton kicks off publicity for her fashion-centric Miami hotel, Nicky O, with — what else? — full frontal male nudity. There is a joke here to illustrate that nudity has very little to do with fashion, but I am too distracted by penises to think of it. [The Superficial]

Sofia Coppola is expecting a baby girl in December. With any luck, she won’t cast the kid in Lost in Translation 3. [Celebrity Baby Blog]

Paris Hilton avoids the premiere of her new movie, National Lampoon’s Pledge This, because she doesn’t want to be associated with a film that will likely go straight to video. She really could have made that decision much earlier, like when they cast Simon Rex and Randy Spelling. [Hollywood Gossip Whores]

Well, the Aaron Sorkin thing didn’t work so hot, so NBC is going back to basics, as the Peacock struggles to keep its head above water after three years of unimpressive ratings and declining operating profit. NBC is slashing 700 jobs, around 5% of its workforce, expecting the cuts to result in a savings of $750 million in operating expenses by 2008.

NBC’s also through gambling on “quality programming” with “good writing” or, you know, “writing,” as they plan to move their prime-time focus away from scripted dramas and comedies. They’ll move the focus to cheaper-to-produce reality/game-show programming like “Deal or No Deal” and “The Biggest Loser,” where they’ll get a better rate of return on ad sales. The result will, hopefully, be a totally killer 10K filing that you, the NBC viewer, can enjoy almost as much as you’d enjoy watching innovative or entertaining NBC programming.

Jeff Zucker, chief executive at NBC Universal, points out that ABC’s been doing the same thing for awhile, and states that, “We want to be sure that we continue to provide the best programming possible. We just want to put the programming where we get the highest rate of return.” Continues Zucker, “If you guys’ll run this with a positive spin, you can try your hand at writing the comedy sketches for the next episode of Studio 60.” After taking a moment to reconsider, Zucker went on, “Actually, could you guys just do that anyway? Or one of your interns? Maybe someone in your IT department? Anyone?”

I was poking around TMZ and I found this photo of Paris buying her little dog a mountain worth of tacky dog stuff. It looks like she is actually buying a little dog bag with another dog already in it. That is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard of. I guess fake dogs are much easier to carry around.

So I remember a while back Paris Hilton used to tote her Chihuahua everywhere. Well, that was until she left it at her grandparent’s house and forgot about it. After that little escapade she also got herself some more little rat dogs (according to reports, Tinkerbell “got too big” to tote around so she needed another accessory), a monkey, and a ferret.

Someone needs to take her Michael Jackson-eque harem of animals away from her pronto. Isn’t she too busy banging Greek shipping heirs to feed them?

Disclaimer: I am the owner of a Maltipoo…yes, like Jessica Simpson. She does own some clothing, yet I still am able to actively hate Paris Hilton.

World News Sources have confirmed today that Britney Spears has finally lost some of her baby weight and is so excited she is shopping for a new wardrobe.

Even though I’m a little taken aback that this is a WORLD NEWS STORY I am kind of excited because this might mean that hot Brit is going to make a comeback. I love Britney Spears and though I have filled my trashy pop void with an unhealthy obsession with Danity Kane I really have missed her.

I really think that Britney should dump Kevin, become besties with Ken Paves and do a duet with Justin Timberlake. That would be hot.

So y’all Brit’s coming back. I’m so excited.

As she is drunk out of her skull on this appearance on Charlotte Church’s U.K. television show.

Thank you to a recent anonymous commenter for giving us the title for this post.

Michael’s line was obviously a huge disappointment, although I’m sure he is crying his eyes out each night right into Brandy’s vagina.

I love Laura Bennett, and I would wear most of her clothes, but I agree with the judges that she lacks an original point of view and creative vision.

Uli’s line? Rocked. Those pieces would make any woman look stunning. She should have won, in my opinion.

Jeffrey’s line did nothing for me. I hated, hated, hated the dress that Marilinda wore. With the zippers? And the weird diamond center piece? It does nothing at all to accentuate a woman’s body. It looked like she was wearing a mangled tablecloth. There were one or two pieces in his collection I enjoyed, but mostly, ick.

What do you guys think?

Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe get into a little tiff at the Flags of Our Fathers screening in NYC. Ryan claims Reese is embarrassing him, mostly because her jaw is overshadowing his career. [Cityrag]

Victoria Beckham has been offered the hosting gig on Simon Fuller’s new fashion-centric reality show. She may turn it down, since the show films in the U.S., and she knows that if she leaves hubby David’s side for more than a minute, some hottie’s going to steal him away. Like Paris Hilton. Or Tom Cruise. [Hollyscoop]

Rod Stewart thought Paris Hilton was a hot piece of ass. When she was fourteen. [Yeeah!]

Whitney officially kicks the Bobby habit. [People]

It’s not so much that Christina Aguilera’s hubby is smoking a joint, it’s that he’s wearing a bike helmet at the same time. [I'm Not Obsessed]

Catherine Zeta-Jones acts pissed that husband Michael Douglas said Eva Longoria has a great ass, as a part of their joint effort to convince the world he’s managed an erection at any point this decade. [ICYDK]
