STAR JONES HATES “THE VIEW”
Monday 10-13-2008 3:45pm CT

We don’t usually waste time on Star Jones but we always like it when the gloves come off so here goes… Star Jones left the daytime chatfest in 2006 and claims she was treated horribly during her departure. “Those girls were hateful,” Star says of her former co-hosts on “The View.” In an interview in Essence magazine, Star claims she fell into “a deep depression” after losing her talk show on Court TV and the breakup of her marriage to Al Reynolds. Star says she’s still hurting from her ongoing dispute with “The View’s” head talking head, Barbara Walters. “Barbara set me up,” insists Star. Back in 2006, the reason for Star’s departure appeared to be her incessant plugs for the companies who agreed to give her free sh*t for her wedding. Barbara Walters reportedly told her to knock it off but Star refused and every show turned into a commercial for Star’s elaborate wedding. While the divorce from Al was finalized last month, the freak keeps releasing YouTube videos claiming to “still love” Stare and denying he’s gay. “I’m not in love with him,” says Star. “I want to fall in love again. I’m ready to love 24/7. I want happiness.” Meanwhile, Star might be coming back to TV soon – she’s reportedly in talks to make a non-scripted TV comeback, whatever that means.
BRITNEY SPEAKS!

Even Britney Spears is amazed by her crazy behavior over the past two years. “I sit there and I’ll look back and I’m like: I’m a smart person. What the hell was I thinking?” the pop star says in a 90-minute film from MTV called “For the Record.” The documentary will debut November 30th, in anticipation of her new CD Circus due out December 2nd. In it, the 26-year old talks about her divorce from Kevin Federline, her forced hospitalizations and losing custody of her sons. “I’ve been through a lot in the past two or three years, and there’s a lot that people don’t know,” she says. “Sometimes I think I get kind of lonely because you don’t open the gate up that much, you know I mean?” she adds. “You’re guarded. You have to be that way, so I’m kind of stuck in this place and it’s like: How do you deal? And you just cope, and that’s what I do. I just cope with it, every day.” Meanwhile, Britney is releasing a new fragrance in time for the holidays. “Hidden Fantasy” is described as having “A cherry scent with a hint of vanilla.” Who is she marketing it to? 6-year olds? The reason we bring the subject up is that the ad for the new perfume features an outtake from a photo shoot from Britney’s Onyx Hotel Tour – in 2004…

HALLE BERRY IS “SEXIEST WOMAN ALIVE”
Wednesday 10-08-2008 3:24pm CT

Esquire has named actress Halle Berry its Sexiest Woman Alive. The Oscar-winner says: “I don’t know exactly what it means, but being 42 and having just had a baby, I think I’ll take it, sexiness is a state of mind – a comfortable state of being. It’s about loving yourself in your most unlovable moments.” “I share this title with every woman, because every woman is a nominee for it at any moment.” Speaking of babies, while daughter Nahla isn’t even a year old, Halle and Gabriel Aubry are already planning more children. “Yeah, we are working on that,” Gabriel told Us magazine when asked about adding to his family with Halle. “She is unbelievable!” he said. “She is the best mom that anybody could ask for — or wish for.” “I had no expectations so everything is a surprise,” he said. “There is no best part. Everything is amazing!” Yup. All the good ones ARE taken
SCAR-JO WEDDING DETAILS
Thursday 10-02-2008 4:48pm CT
23-year old Scarlett Johansson managed to pull off what many thought impossible for a Hollywood actress: she got married with no paparazzi or media attention at all. Scarlett married fellow actor Ryan Reynolds in his native Canada Saturday and now we have some details. The couple kept the guest list down to 40 so friends and family could enjoy a weekend getaway on Vancouver Island, reports People magazine. “Scarlett wanted a ceremony with just family and a few select friends,” says a source close. The groom took advantage of the wilderness setting by going fishing for salmon and halibut while wedding guests enjoyed horseback riding and mountain biking around the Clavoquot Wilderness Resort. The rustic yet luxurious resort caters to nature lovers and consists of about 20 canvas tents. Friends who didn’t make the short list shouldn’t feel too bad – the couple is reportedly planning a large celebration before years’ end. “They make a great couple and they’ll make an even better married couple,” says the source.
CHRISTINA APPLEGATE’S NUDE PHOTOS
Wednesday 10-01-2008 2:47pm CT

Before she said goodbye to her breasts actress Christina Applegate arranged for a private photo session. The 36-year old was diagnosed with breast cancer a few months back and decided to make the radical choice of a double mastectomy – but not without taking time to immortalize her bust line. Christina told Oprah Tuesday, “I did my first and last nudie photoshoot at home. I made sure that I have close-up photographs of them from every angle, so I can kind of remember them.” The actress adds that doctors put in “expanders” which will eventually accommodate breast implants. “They keep expanding over a few months until they take those out and put in your implants… They have this strange little thing that they insert in there and they keep filling it up with saline to expand behind the muscles.” “You’ve got scarring and there’s a lot of things you’re missing… and the shape is not the same and it doesn’t feel the same and it’s hard to carry your purse and there are so many limitations.” “It’s sad. I cry at least once a day about it because it’s hard to overlook it when you’re standing there in the mirror.” But there is an upside: “I don’t have to wear a bra… ever again,” she joked.

42-year old Janet Jackson was hospitalized Monday, her rep confirms. The singer cancelled her Montreal, Canada show Monday night after she became “suddenly ill” during sound check and was rushed to a local hospital. Meanwhile, it wasn’t a great week for Janet… her boyfriend Jermaine Dupri celebrated his 36th birthday in New York City Tuesday night and had a little too much of a good time. Page Six reports the music producer partied at Manhattan club Tenjune with Janet, Ne-Yo, Busta Rhymes and Ice-T. The group enjoyed Jay-Z’s Ace of Spades Champagne and Patron tequila – until Jermaine lost it, literally, and puked in Janet’s lap! Janet reportedly jumped up and quickly exited the club, speeding off in a chauffeured Maybach.
HEATHER LOCKLEAR BUSTED FOR DUI
Monday 09-29-2008 3:22pm CT

Looks like it’s back to rehab for Heather Lockclear… The 47-year old actress was arrested for driving under the influence over the weekend in Santa Barbara County, CA. “Around 4:30 p.m., a female witness saw Heather Locklear driving erratically while leaving a parking lot in Montecito,” California Highway Patrol spokesman Tom Marshall tells People magazine. “The witness said Locklear was revving her engine loudly, and backed over a pair of sunglasses several times.” “The witness called 911 because she was concerned for Locklear’s safety,” Marshall said. “When a CHP officer arrived, Locklear was found seated inside her vehicle, which was partially blocking the roadway.” Heather was described as “disoriented and impaired,” and police took her to a nearby station and tested her for drugs and alcohol. “Alcohol was ruled out as a factor, but based on the officer’s observations, we believe Locklear was under the influence of prescription medication,” Marshall added. She was booked and released around 7pm. Heather recently checked herself into a rehab facility to deal with “depression and anxiety issues,” but insiders believe the actress has a prescription drug habit.
