For $5M, Kim Kardashian is totally okay with you watching her sex tape. That’s impressive, Kim. I probably would have sold out somewhere around $500K. Then again, I’m kind of trashy. [Bossip]

Peter Andre has meningitis, but it looks like he’ll live. [popbytes]

Yup, they’re sending Prince Harry to the front lines in Iraq. [A Socialite's Life]

Even Jessica Simpson’s ginormous breasts can’t save her from the fug of this dress. [Derek Hail]

Honestly, Britney, you must be joking. [Celebslam]

Heather Mills is getting $50 million from Sir Paul McCartney. What’s in it for you, you ask? Hopefully, no more Heather Mills. [Cele|bitchy]

Happy birthday, Kirsten Dunst! Try not to O.D.! [The Blemish]

Courtney Love is auctioning off most of Kurt Cobain’s belongings. [Holy Candy]

Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore hit Coachella hand-in-hand. I don’t understand Coachella. Every year, someone invites me to go, and every year it just looks so dirty. Why would I stand outside in the sun all day and put up with Port-O-Potties when I could just play a CD and smoke a bowl in the comfort of my living room? [Gabsmash]

Victoria Beckham sports the THO. [Drunken Stepfather]

Pete Wentz discusses the art of “guyliner.” [POTP]

Will Roseanne Replace Rosie on The View?

Monday, April 30th, 2007

That’s what the NY Post is reporting.

Roseanne’s rep denies the rumor, and Roseanne herself has said in the past that she’s not interested in hosting The View.

Insiders have also tossed out names like Joan Rivers, Kathy Griffin, Connie Chung and Whoopi Goldberg as possible replacements.

Further complicating matters is the fact that Rosie’s nemesis, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, is pregnant and will be taking a leave of absence from the show as her due date approaches.

Keisha Castle-Hughes Pops Out That Kiddo

Keisha Castle-Hughes, the Oscar-nominated star of Whale Rider, made waves last year when she announced that she was pregnant at the age of 16, by her boyfriend of three years, who was 19 at the time. Castle-Hughes gave birth to Felicity-Amore in New Zealand on Wednesday. Both mother and baby are doing well.

Castle-Hughes talked recently about the controversy surrounding her young pregnancy in an interview with Television New Zealand. “I felt like I had to hide,” she said. “I felt like it was bad for me to be happy about it.”

The young actress also made quite a splash at age 13, when she was the youngest person ever nominated for the Best Actress Oscar for her role in 2002’s Whale Rider. Dakota Fanning, darling, you’re slacking. You need an Oscar nod and a boyfriend stat.

Golf is Like Hyde for Old People

The 9th Annual Michael Douglas & Friends Celebrity Golf Event this weekend at Trump National Golf Club in Ranchos Palos Verdes brought out a veritable who’s-who of 1995. Douglas was there with his granddaughter wife Catherine Zeta-Jones, and they were accompanied by Heather Locklear, Sam Jackson, Cheryl Ladd (who?), Josh Duhamel, Mark Wahlberg, Kenny Fucking G, Alice Cooper and … drumroll please … Haley Joel Osment, whose managers clearly believe that if he plays golf with old people all day we will forget about that little DUI thing last summer. No dice, kids.

Putting that Harvard Education to Good Use

Natalie Portman showed up on ABC’s “This Week” to endorse extending microloans to women in the poorest countries.

“They’re able to get a loan and start their own business out of their own house and be with their children,” she said. “It changes the whole system. If a woman can’t tell her child, ‘I can feed you tomorrow, I can pay for your school,’ then where do they go? What do they do? What do they choose? It’s really trying to reach the poorest of the poor and offering banking services to them.”

Natalie has been working with FINCA International, an organization that provides small loans to people in developing countries.

Microloans are loans in very small amounts — in developing countries, often only a couple hundred dollars — which traditional banks won’t offer, both due to the small amount and the lack of credit history of the borrowers. FINCA, which lends primarily to women in 21 developing nations, has a loan repayment rate of 97%.

I Love Dunst, but Her Boyfriend Doesn’t

Monday, April 30th, 2007

Sometimes I feel woe for celebrities. This is one of those times. Fresh off of Kirsten saying this to Jane Magazine (May issue):

“I don’t ever want to date another actor again. This quote is probably going to come back in my face, but I know someone who has a great saying: ‘There are no actors, there are only actresses,’ ” she continues. “Sometimes creative people can be very dark and destructive.”

So who does she date instead? Razorlight lead singer Johnny Borrell. Because musicians are NEVER screwed up. And they never have access to ladies after every show. Nope, compared to actors dating a musician is like heading to the monastery, it’s all celibacy and meditation.

Invariably, less than a week later, this happens: Hollywood.com has (the ex-girlfriend of Johnny Borell) Fabiola Gatti saying:

“I was recording some solo stuff so I was on my own in the studio when he popped in. When the air was cleared between us and I knew what the situation was, he just leaned in and kissed me. He told me he would break up with her (Dunst) to go back out with me. We’ve been on and off for years. We will always be soul mates. At the moment we know it won’t work but one day we will get back together.

What a catastrophe. If this is true, and generally Hollywood.com is on the money, I feel really bad for her. What a horrible way to find out. And you, John whoever, are an idiot. Anyone named Fabiola is destined to become a crazy person. This will end with her throwing a lamp or knife at your head while you’re sleeping because you didn’t get the nail polish color she specifically asked for.

But back to Kirsten, here’s my offer: Kirsten, if you’re into overweight and slightly dark and destructive writer types you should call me. We will spend your Spidey money and walk this world together. I’m loyal (like a puppy) and will make you breakfast everyday. I’m only an email away my dear.
