Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz have reportedly split for good. I bet he’s realized lately what a huge mistake it was to leave Britney and hopes to win her back. [Pop on the Pop]

It’s not out of the question says Demi.

“Once you hit three, where you’re outnumbered, it’s really, like, ‘What’s the difference between (three or) four or five?,”‘ she said.

Hmm, I guess there is no difference at all if you are super rich.

In some ways though I find this story heartening, at least until it comes out that Ashton cheated with Tara Reid or something, then I’ll be freshly jaded.

Also, that hat is stupid.

Take a look at that photo. Now read this sentence from the article, which we’ll get to in one moment.

“Looking at Principal, you would never know she is a former smoker who spent years on Dallas‘ Southfork Ranch. She credits her products for helping her maintain a glowing complexion.”

Um, what? Maybe I’m reading to much into it, but wasn’t she married to a plastic surgeon for a few decades? Oh, yeah, let’s see here:

“In May, she filed for divorce from her husband of 21 years, Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Harry Glassman. She won’t discuss details of her stormy split with Glassman but hopes that she and her ex might be able to become friends. She does not now speak to him or his children.”

It’s good that her and the kids don’t talk now either. What’s a few decades worth anyway?

Oh, and now the original reason for my post:

“With astronaut training on tap for 2007, she is moving on after some turbulence in her personal life.”

Fantastic. We need a nice and stretchy face out there in space.

Las Vegas actress Nikki Cox tied the knot with comedian Jay Mohr over the weekend. Remember when she was the Kelly Bundy character on that show with the talking bunny? Yeah. That was pretty cool.

Additionally, former teen supermodel Niki Taylor married NASCAR driver Burney Lamar (that’s his real name) last Wednesday. Taylor currently owns a clothing boutique in Nashville. Remember when she was famous? Yeah. That was pretty cool.

That would be an odd name for a school wouldn’t it? So what’s up with the “Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls”?

The school Oprah built opened today at a cost of around $40 million dollars. It will educate 150 girls aged 12 and 13. The school will not educate any boys, presumably because boys are fine without fancy book learning. The school will also not educate the other 3350 applicants who didn’t make the cut.

“(the school) Built on 21 hectares, the 28-building campus resembles a luxury hotel with state-of-the-art classrooms, computer and science laboratories, a library, a theatre and a wellness centre. Each girl has a two-bedroom suite.” (link to full story here)

I know this is a good deed, and I’m not claiming South Africa would be better off without it. I just wonder if $40m could have been used more effectively to educate a wider range of a population that needs much in the way of infrastructure help.

She’s still better than Rosie and Trump though, so semi-kudos Oprah.

Someone snuck a cell phone camera into the Saddam Hussein hanging this weekend, and caught the whole thing on tape. Saddam drops at 1:40 on the tape.

Please note: this is video of an actual hanging. Viewer discretion strongly advised.
