Bad news for everyone who made it onto the Britney Spears dance team this season: they’re drug-testing.

A source tells E! News that, in an effort to keep the on-track pop star free from negative influences, her camp is requiring that all of her backup dancers submit to drug tests.

“They all had to be drug tested and, if they didn’t pass, they were fired,” the insider says.

“I think they only do it for her because she is under strict watch. I think they just want good influences around her,” the source adds, noting that drug testing is not common practice.

Um, to say that drug testing is not common practice for dance jobs is to say that virginity pledges are not common practice at Hustler. My guess? They gave these kids this job and then said: “You will be drug tested in eight weeks. Be ready.” That way you weed out the total addicts but don’t lose the good dancers who happened to do a couple lines at a party that weekend. Still. Something tells me this was Papa Spears’ idea.

Valkyrie, Tom Cruise’s painfully ill-fated Third Reich flick, has made a last-minute decision to open on Christmas Day rather than later that week.

Um … who goes to the movies on Christmas?

If you guessed “Jews and families with small children and other demographics who would rather stare at a bathroom wall than your Hitler movie, dude,” you’d be correct. You should also consider shooting an email over to the folks at United Artists, since apparently they didn’t get that memo.

This is going to be a remarkably embarrassing opening day for Cruise.

First George Clooney walks the red carpet sporting one, and now Brad Pitt?

Is this a new trend?

Please, God, no. Please no.

Brad and Angelina hit the red carpet looking fabulous (except for the moustache!) and very much in love at the LA premiere of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

At Cracked Xmas 11: A Not So Silent Night Benefiting The Trevor Project, in LA on Sunday.

I’ll note that this is a great example of how important lighting is in making these celebs look so amazingly perfect. The lighting was way off when Anne walked the carpet, and she looks much more … human … as a result.

Well … apparently Fantasia Barrino can’t.

…It looks like third season American Idol winner and 8-time Grammy nominated R&B singer Fantasia Barrino is about to get booted from one of her Charlotte, NC homes. According to recent reports and county records, big voiced Miss Barrino’s 6,232 square foot house has been foreclosed on and unless she can make good with a pile of cash will be auctioned to the highest bidder on January 12, 2009.

Property records show Miz Barrino purchased the 6 bedroom and 5.5 bathroom pond-front mansion on Bevington Place in March of 2007 for $1,300,000.

However, the children can rest easier knowing that it does not appear that Miz Barrino will go homeless as records show that she also owns a second house on nearby Seton House Lane that she purchased in July of 2004 for $740,000.

Seriously, though, can we please talk about this shit??? Look at that fucking house!!!! OMG!!! Do you know what you can buy with $1.3M in Seattle? A cottage! And in Los Angeles? A condo! Maybe! I’m gonna pack up my multitude of animals and move us to Charlotte, where we’ll live like KINGS on the amount of money I spend right now paying rent. Sheesh.

Despite the fact that the economy is crumbling beneath our very feet, Lindsay Lohan’s absurdly over-priced leggings are selling like hotcakes.

“They’re blowing off the shelves,” says Jill Lowe, publicist for high-end Hollywood boutique Intuition.

The Marilyn Monroe-inspired leggings – which cost anywhere from $44 to $132 – are also flying out the doors at Henri Bendel, Nordstrom, Intermix and Lisa Kline.

From leopard prints to zippered black tights, Lindsay’s got a lil’ something for everyone with 35 styles in various colors and patterns.

Across the board, stores say, Lohan’s best-seller is her Mr. President leggings – the most expensive and unique-looking option. Black with grey knee patches, the $132 tights are a big hit from coast to coast.

Craziness! Who’d've thunk it??

And Lohan’s gonna keep going with this “designer” shit.

Lohan and her team plan to develop four collections a year – spring, summer, fall and holiday – and they want to get even bigger.

“We are building a lifestyle brand that represents timeless glamour,” Brubaker says. “Our hope is to organically [roll] out additional product categories over the next several years.”

Have you bought a pair of Lindsay’s leggings???

If so, reveal yourself and tell us why!!!

Can’t. Stop. Laughing.
