Jimmy choo(ses Nicole Richie)

Nicole Richie has become the latsest face of Jimmy Choo. I have to admit, she may look like an 11 year old famine victim in real life but she looks absolutely amazing in this campaign. I guess 11 year old famine victims photograph really well.

Another BritBoy blind Item.

Which young Hollywood star has nothing in common with his womaniser image on screen? At a recent out of control party the action star was propositioned by an actress many consider the hottest body in Hollywood. The goofy guy declined the bronzed beauty (who often ups her star power by being 'inadvertantly' photographed in her bikini) and made a hasty exit from the party..to the waiting car of his boyfriend!

Who were the guy and the girl? you tell me!

Nick Lachey is disgusting.

Nick admitted in an interview with Elle magazine that he used to enjoy wearing Jessica Simpson's stilettos and walking around. He said;

"It was sort of a kinky thing we liked to get into,"

He chose to add that "I haven't even realized my full dirty talk potential,"

Maybe Jessica should have beaten Nick to death with her stilettos and spared the world a hideous revelation that noone needed.

CELEBRITY BB BEGINS! oh. my. god.

As you may or may not know I am unhealthily obsessed with Big Brother..call it what you will..it is like heroin to me. Anyway the 2006 series of Celebrity Big Brother began in the UK today and I'm so annoyed that I can't see it. I know I'm going to be checking the website every ten seconds. As usual about a third of the housemates have never been heard of before...

There's Rula Lenska....who?

Samuel Preston....who?

Maggot....um...what?...who?

Ex Baywatcher Tracie Bingham

Pete "I once saw him in Notting Hill and threw up in my mouth a little" Burns

Shamed TV host Michael Barrymore

ESSEX GIRL and BritBoy fave Jodie Marsh

George Galloway...who I kind of recognise but I don't know where from

Faria Alam, the woman who had an affair with Sven Goran-Eriksson

Basketballer and professional wierdo Dennis Rodman

Well, Channel 4 got the cream of the crop this year didn't they? ..what happened to the rumours about Anna Nicole Smith and Macauley Culkin? You know what...I don't care...as long as Jodie Marsh is in the house....aaah...so Essex...so Chav....so Jodie.

In a rather ingenious twist BB has put one non-celeb, Chantelle, into the house...

...her mission? to convince the other housemates that she is a star. Big Brother gave her a new identity as the lead singer in the fictional band "Kandy Floss"..with a "K"..classy.

Judging by the calibre of the other celebs in there Chantelle will probably be the biggest star anyway...except for Jodie of course..she's A List!

Sienna Icantdressmyself, "I can't dress myself"

Sienna Miller has finally admitted that she is an idiot who cannot dress herself and has no talent...well not quite. Sienna told American Vogue "No more boho chic! Those two words make me sick now," "I feel less hippie. I just don't want to wear anything floaty or coin-belty ever again. No more gilets, or cowboy boots!"

and talking about how her style has become so mainstream:

"I have all this beautiful stuff from the 60s and 70s that I collected and love, and now someone can get it for like �10 in River Island."

I love the fact that Sienna talks like this when she completely stole her style from Kate Moss in the first place! That's kind of like me dressing up as a pumpkin and then getting mad when other people want to dress like pumpkins...even though I totally stole my style from a pumpkin in the first place...see?

Sometimes things are so much easier to illustrate using vegetable costumes.

First Star of 2006

Queen Latifah was the first celebrity to receive a star on the Hollywood walk of fame in 2006...

No offense to Queen Latifah but remember when a star on the Hollywood walk of fame actually meant something, and only the biggest household names were eligable? Now it's like going out to get a taco...oh I'll pick up a Hollywood star while I'm at it... I think it all went downhill with Ryan Seacrest. (via Defamer)

my LAST Lohan post! (maybe)

Ok, so I know the blog has turned into Lohan central for the past 2 days and I apologize..it seems like the drama may be calming down. Lohan has been released from hospital and her publicist states that "She is much better. She is on her way home with her family. She is doing great." Apparantly the pregnancy test was for someone in Lohan's entourage...hmmm..ok then.

Anyway yesterday I picked up the latest edition of Vanity Fair with Lohan on the cover..it certainly makes for a good read and gives an insight into the nightmare of a life that this girl has had. I recommend picking up a copy..it just might change the way you think about Lohan.

Here are some pics from the magazine...which I don't think are that good...just my opinion.

LOHANWATCH UPDATE!

Ok..so I said no more Lohan posts but THIS I have to tell you guys. ALL THAT FOLLOWS IS SPECULATION. I just received 2 emails (one from an anonymous source in the UK and another from supposedly someone close to Lindsay) Both stated that hospital staff found a pregnancy test in her bag when she arrived at the hospital.

I don't know what to make of this...I'm not sure she is pregnant but it would explain some stuff. Maybe it is Jared Leto's baby?
I'm still going with drugs or eating disorder but you never know.

Trust me I will keep you all updated on any more crazy specualtion that I receive.

EDIT: It appears there was some truth to the story..apparantly a friend of Lindsay's made a trip to the store last night with Lindsay's limo driver and brought items back to her hospital room with "several overnight bags and food shopping including a Pregnancy test, Playing cards, mouthwash, Coke, and a box of Cocoa Puffs. The friend declined to comment on Lindsay's condition."

Does it seem slightly fishy to anyone else that she would make her friend go out and get a pregnancy test when she is in..um...A HOSPITAL?? Maybe she could have just asked a doctor for one? hmmmm i'm thinking publicity stunt.

Here are the pics

*REMOVED DUE TO LEGAL REASONS*

What did I say yesterday?

It finally happened..after months of endless speculation People has announced that Lindsay Lohan admitted her eating disorder and drug problems to Vanity Fair magazine.

While Lindsay Lohan, admitted to a Miami hospital Monday night after suffering a severe asthma attack, is now "resting comfortably," an explosive interview with the Mean Girls star hits newsstands Wednesday � and lifts the curtain on her self-confessed bulimia, drug use and emotional wreckage over her relationships with her volatile father and her first boyfriend, Wilmer Valderrama.

"I was making myself sick," Lohan, 19, admits to Vanity Fair magazine, of her bulimia.

She credits Saturday Night Live producer Lorne Michaels and head writer Tina Fey with helping solve her eating disorder by staging an intervention. "(They) sat me down, literally before I was going to do (SNL), and they said, 'You need to take care of yourself. We care about you too much, and we've seen too many people do this, and you're talented,' and I just started bawling. I knew I had a problem and I couldn't admit it."

Adds Lohan, "I saw that SNL after I did it. My arms were disgusting. I had no arms."

The actress also says that she used drugs "a little," then quickly adds: "I've gotten that out of my system. ... I don't want people to think that I've done ... you know what I mean? It's kind of a sore subject."

I think we can all safely assume that the hospitalization was more than an asthma attack...while I would like to poke fun at her an eating disorder or drug addiction is nothing to make fun of..I hope she gets better soon

P.S. I am aware that this blog has just become the "obsessed with the Lohan" blog...no more Lindsay posts for a while..unless she does something really crazy like...admits her breast implants! Now THAT would rule!

BREAKING NEWS: The Lohan Hospitalized

Teen actress Lindsay Lohan has been hospitalized in Miami for treatment of a severe asthma attack, but she is expected to be released soon, her publicist says.

Lohan, 19, was admitted to the hospital last night after experiencing breathing difficulties in her hotel room in Miami, where she was spending the New Year's holiday with her family, spokeswoman Leslie Sloane said.

Sloane said the actress was "resting comfortably" while she remained under observation and hopefully would be discharged soon.

"She's OK. She starts work in about two weeks," the publicist said.

Sloane said Lohan has suffered from asthma since childhood, and she believed the actress was last hospitalised from the condition "when she was little".

Sloane said Lohan herself suggested in an email that Florida's high humidity may have contributed to her asthma attack, which was first reported by People magazine on its website.

Taken from smh.com.au

According to ET online the attack was so bad that it caused a broken blood vessel in her neck, which prompted doctors to advise the actress to seek treatment at the hospital.

I'm sorry but how many times is the Lohan going to go into hospital and expect us to believe her excuses? First there was the "mystery illness" that kept her at Cedars Sinai where she miraculously emerged with enormous breasts. Then "exhaustion", then "food poisoning" and now "a severe asthma attack".

Everybody knows the only reasons celebs go into hospital are:

1)Because of an overdose

2) Plastic surgery

3)Rehab

So we can either expect Lindsay to look less cracked out when she is released..or she will have her fourth pair of boobs in 12 months.

I love the fact that asthma was chosen even though Lindsay could out-smoke Colin Farrell. I bet this is how the conversation right before she was admitted went:

The Stars New Years' Resolutions

First off, welcome to 2006 everyone! I spent my New Year toiling away for you...I relentlessly stalked celebrities to find out their New Years resolutions. I flew to Miami in search of Nicole Richie and the Lohan...

Nicole, what is your New Years' resolution?

Just as I was leaving Prive I bumped into TomKat outside. Tom was shoving a watermelon up Katie's blouse...im not sure what that was about...maybe the baby is craving fruit or something?

Tom, what is your New Years resolution?

Katie, what is your New Years' resolution?

Then I was back on my jet to fly over to NYC to watch celebrity sausagedog Mariah Carey perform. She looked more sausagedoggy than EVER in a spangley dress.

So Mariah any new years resolutions?

um...thanks Mariah, there was no need to sing your answer but whatever.

Finally I hopped a plane to L.A. to ask K-Fed about his New Year just after he had got feedback on his new single "Popozao"

So Kevin, after hearing public opinion on your single what do you want to do in 2006?
