Shia LaBeouf debuts his injured hand during a smoke break outside the hospital.

Ouch!

Also, I’m on DAY SIX without smoking! WOO HOO!!!

And somehow this picture makes me want a cigarette. Addiction is so weird. But I’m not going to have one!

So much happy news today!

So many celebrities doing good things that contribute positively to our planet!

Unfortunately, these things contribute significantly LESS to my wallet, since do-gooding isn’t quite the same traffic-driver as, say, vagina, but still. It’s nice to see.

David Spade has saved an Arizona animal shelter from being closed, by donating $10,000 to the establishment.

David Spade has donated $10,000 to save the Humane Society of the White Mountains in his mother’s town of Lakeside, Arizona.

“The shelter was falling apart, and they were going to shut it down, so he stepped in,” says the source. “It was far and above what they needed and ever received.”

David’s from Arizona — like me! — and the article says he also donated $15,000 to his alma mater, Saguaro High School, where the funds were probably used to begin construction on their new state-of-the-art meth lab. Sorry. Arizona inside joke.

Congratulations to Brian May, the founder of the ’70s band Queen, who just completed his PhD thesis in astrophysics at a British university.

Brian May’s thesis examines the mysterious phenomenon known as Zodiacal light, a misty diffuse cone of light that appears in the western sky after sunset and in the eastern sky before sunrise. Casual observers, if they live under very dark rural skies, can best see the light two to three hours before sunrise as they look east, and many people have been fooled into seeing it as the first sign of morning twilight. A Persian astronomer who lived around the 12th century referred to it as “false dawn” in a poem.

Astronomers now know that Zodiacal light represents reflected sunlight shining on scattered space debris clustered most densely near the sun. The millions of particles range in size from tiny asteroids to microscopic dust grains, and extend outward beyond the orbit of Mars.

May’s work focuses on an instrument that recorded 250 scans of morning and evening Zodiacal light between 1971 and 1972. The Fabry-Perot Spectrometer is located at the Observatorio del Teide at Izana in Tenerife, the largest of the Canary Islands.

Uh … I know about the Big Dipper. And that is all I know about. Seriously I’ll look up at the sky and identify every single cluster of stars as “The Big Dipper.” But I say it with such conviction that sometimes people think I know what I’m talking about.

Brian’s thesis has been published as a book called A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud, and if you’ve been struggling with insomnia, you can buy it here. It costs $80!!! Jesus, for that kind of money, you could go out and buy some of Lindsay Lohan’s leggings!

The kids at The Dirty tagged along on a casting call for a new show called Guido Beach, I guess about life on the Jersey Shore.

Please, Lord, let this show get made. Every second of these seven minutes is hilarious and amazing. I encourage you to watch the entire clip. I was fascinated. It’s like a whole different species of person. At the very least, it is a subculture with which I am entirely unfamiliar, and it intrigues me.

Here’s the first cast photo of the new 90210, which will premiere at some point on some network.

The guy standing next to Lori Loughlin looks constipated.

You guys, is it just me, or is this show doomed to total, complete, embarrassing failure? It’s been WAY too hyped up at this point, and it’s just going to end up being another one of those stupid teen dramas that lasts half a season and then gets canned because it’s boring and no one cares. 90210 had a magic that cannot be recaptured. Every time I see new hype for this show, I just shake my head and think “Man, this is all going to be so mortifying for them in retrospect.”

Yes, it’s true.

Her meth addiction destroyed her first marriage.

And her reality TV show will destroy her second.

Jodie and second husband Cody Herpin have decided to move forward on a reality TV show about their lives with their new baby girl.

“We’re going to start shooting in a couple months,” she said. “We are in talks with a couple of networks right now. We have one picked out, but nothing is signed yet.”

As to why she’s doing it?

“I think it’s sort of a fun way to show the other side of celebrity and a sort of semi-normal life,” she says.

Translation: “Maybe now I can be famous for something other than my meth addiction.”

Good luck with this, Stephanie Tanner.

The Chicago Sun-Times — which broke the news of Kate and Lance’s split — is now reporting that Lance dumped Kate because she was too clingy and needy.

Seems the Tour de France champ and cancer survival poster boy was feeling a bit ‘’smothered” by the actress. According to an Armstrong associate at his Livestrong charity foundation, the sports hero felt Hudson was ”just too needy,” and was coming on ”too strong, too fast … sensing Kate was way too desperate, a woman who clearly can’t be on her own without a man in her life at all times.”

One thing Armstrong reportedly liked about ex-girlfriend Sheryl Crow — and one reason that relationship lasted as long as it did — was that ”Sheryl’s one very independent woman. … Lance liked that,” said the source.

And what did Kate do after the split?

She ran back to her ex-boyfriend!

Take a year and figure out who the hell YOU are, Kate!
