Haylie Duff takes in a movie in LA with her boyfriend, Nick “Z-list” Zano. Does the name ring a bell? He used to be the one true love of Kristin Cavallari — who had his initials tattooed on her wrist before she dumped him a couple years back.

Jessica Alba and her super-awesome no-name girlfriends refuse to look the paparazzi in the eye as they leave Guys & Dolls in LA.

A tipster points us to this little-known interview with Mischa Barton done in January 2009. At first she’s just rambling about hair products (she gets a pass there since it’s an Herbal Essences event), but around the 1:55 line she talks about her OC days — how she hated the show by the end and chose for her character to die. Then she says that she never sees any of the cast from the show anymore.

She doesn’t seem high or drunk, exactly, but something’s off. Hungover maybe? Or just the early, brewing stages of a complete break-down?

He’s a back-up dancer! He’s a rapper! He’s an actor! No, no, none of those worked out, so K-Fed’s falling back on every famewhore’s favorite fall-back plan: He’s doing a reality TV show. His second reality TV show, the first of course being the perma-stoned Chaos with Britney Spears.

Kevin’s currently filming the VH1 show in Vegas with his entourage — including girlfriend Victoria Prince — and thus far he’s not making a lot of new friends with the locals.

Last night, he hit up Wasted Space at the Hard Rock Hotel, where he was comped two bottles of Grey Goose, proceeded to get completely wasted, and then left without leaving a tip. CLASSY! In fairness, it probably wasn’t an intentional slight: Based on reports from the club, he was likely too drunk to even consider tipping. The stay-at-home-dad/party-boy lifestyle isn’t doing Kevin any favors. Everyone who’s seen him in Vegas seems to comment on how much weight he’s put on. Better be careful, Kevin, or the next VH1 show you’re gonna do is Celebrity Fit Club. (Is that mess even still on?)

If you’re anything like me, you wake up every morning lately, scan the news headlines, and ask yourself, “Why isn’t Paris Hilton’s name anywhere on here?” Paris has been laying conspicuously low these days, and now perhaps we know why: She’s reconciled with Douche Reinhardt, and she’s probably a little embarrassed about it. I mean, there were practically parades in the streets when they split — everyone hates that guy — but apparently Paris has had trouble finding another Z-lister to worship at her feet.

“They are definitely happy again,” a source tells Us Weekly.

On Monday, The Douche posted on Twitter: “What an amazing weekend with my beautiful girlfriend. I love her so much!” The day before that, he wrote: “Laying in bed watching SportsCenter with my girl.”

Oh, Paris. You’re just gonna break the poor guy’s heart again. And, frankly, you’re breaking mine — do we really need this guy in the spotlight again? JON GOSSELIN IS SINGLE. Please, Paris. I’ve never asked you for anything before. I’ve watched you find some way to insert yourself into the media topic du jour for years and years. And yet all I want in the whole world is for you to get involved with the Jon Gosselin story, and instead you head back to Douche, when you could be front-page headlines for weeks if you’d just spend one night hanging on Jon Gosselin. Stop acting so damn grown-up, Paris. It’s not like you.

A federal judge has ruled that a Boston University student violated copyright laws when he swapped music online, paving the way for a jury to begin considering damages Friday.

Joel Tenenbaum, 25, admitted on the witness stand Thursday that he downloaded and shared hundreds of songs by Nirvana, Green Day, The Smashing Pumpkins and other artists.

“Tenenbaum’s statement plainly admits liability on both downloading and distributing, does so in the very language of the statute … and does so with respect to each and every sound recording at issue here,” U.S. District Judge Nancy Gertner in Boston wrote in her ruling late Thursday.

Now the jury has to decide whether his copyright infringement was willful, and how much to award the record labels.

The penalty could be as much as $4.5M dollars.

Of course, as a 25-year-old, he’ll just declare bankruptcy and the record labels won’t see a penny. I’m sure they realize that. But it’s sending a VERY strong message.

Wendie’s done a great job of covering the the craziness surrounding Rachelle LeFevre getting the boot from New Moon because of scheduling conflicts. But don’t expect to hear any more poison-tongued statements from either camp: they’re taking it to their lawyers.

In short, Lefevre wants her money. Summit is arguing she’s due nothing because the studio insists she’s in breach of contract for signing on for the indie flick Barney’s Version.

“Rachelle’s contract says she’s allowed to do smaller projects like Barney’s Version,” one source said.

Meanwhile, her Twilight and New Moon costars are “devastated,” said another source. “As nice and lovely as Bryce [Dallas Howard] is, they feel like a family member has been taken from them.”

But don’t expect them to go public with too much anti-Summit talk. … Lefevre’s dismissal sends a very strong message—or warning—not to mess with the studio.

Sources also tell me that shortly after Summit announced Lefevre’s dismissal, the rest of the cast was told not to elaborate on the circumstances to the media, beyond repeating that it was due to a scheduling conflict.

Man, this Barney’s Version better be a damned good indie flick, and not wind up like this. Was it worth it, Rachelle?
