Always keep it real

Britney Smiles And We Smile With Her

It looks like Britney's happy about how people are receiving her hot new single! A super-peppy Britney talked it up with a couple of guys before heading into the dance studio in LA yesterday - gearing up for her big VMA disappearing act, perhaps? Now that we've heard her new track, our faith is restored that she'll be able to make her big comeback. Hopefully she'll work on behaving herself in her personal life too, starting with her big hosting gig at the opening of LAX nightclub in Vegas tonight. Maybe she'll even do an impromptu performance of Gimme More?

Ryan Looks Very C&C Grease Factory

Ryan definitely said he was going to be hanging out in Europe for the next while, but it looks like he just couldn't stay away from Hollywood as he was seen ducking out of Dan Tanas last night. (I'd like to think it was those precious kids of his.) Can I just say he looks eew? Why is he so sweaty? You were fairly divided yesterday on whether or not Ryan has lost his appeal, but these kinda seal the deal for me. Or maybe the cameras just caught him at an off moment?

How We Met Mandy’s Bad Side

Mandy Moore may have been wearing an oversized cardigan, but she still managed to look cute signing autographs for fans in LA last night. Something about Mandy is always the sweetest ever, but she's taking on the role of badass for How I Met Your Mother. I adored her on Scrubs, so I can't wait to see her on TV again. Plus, even the preview of her alongside NPH is legen-wait for it and I hope you're not lactose intolerant because the next half is-dary. Yays.

George Is A (Unfit) Jokester

George Clooney was looking as Manjoyable as ever in his tuxedo at the premiere of Michael Clayton in Venice today. We often wonder how George manages to stay so gorgeous as he ages, but apparently it's not his fitness that is keeping him in business. When asked about his exercise regimen, he said, "Well, we do a lot of aerobics and a lot of dance; a lot of jazzercize, a lot of, what's that, ab-master, butt-blaster? Yeah, that's it." Leave it to George to never take anything seriously.

Broken Becks Sidelined For Six Weeks

David Beckham looked slightly (and sadly) broken with his ankle and knee braces out shopping for shades with Brooklyn yesterday. He's going to have a lot of downtime these days because Wednesday's on field knee injury will keep him out for 6 weeks. Best case recovery will put him back on the field mid-October when there are only three Galaxy games left in the regular season. Plus, he was planning on flying back to England this weekend to practice with the national team for the upcoming Euro 2008 qualifying games. I can't imagine he's pleased about any of this, especially considering how brutal (and blaming) the fans can be. On the slightly brighter side, he's one of the few men who can rock a semi-grown in beard and still look smoking hot, right?

Details on Britney’s Album, Performance, Money

Yesterday afternoon was certainly a glimmer of hope for Britney fans - her new single Gimme More isn't bad (as for the other song Cold As Fire? I kinda hope it doesn't make the final cut). While the song leak was obviously intentional, the full album won't drop until November 13. She looked like a mess in a hot pink bra and ugly felt fedora on her way out of a tanning salon yesterday, but definitely not her worst. Her big comeback is still a question, but there's no reason to worry about her financial situation, according to legal documents in her child custody case (where Kevin is trying to get more $ from Brit) she still rakes in an average of $737,868 a month. Not too shabby.

As for that big, triumphant, Criss Angel orchestrated VMA performance, some more details emerged. Apparently the spectacle will include lots of mirrors, Britney disappearing/reappearing and backup dancers appearing to fly. Certainly not getting my hopes up just yet...but could it really be awesome?

Nicole Richie Juices Up! Fruit-tastic!

Nicole Richie and her enviable maternity wardrobe (words I never thought I'd write) stopped off at a Jamba Juice in Beverly Hills yesterday afternoon. In keeping with her string of fabulous looks, she looked great in her maxi dress. Unfortunately for Nic, she's been rolling solo with Joel off opening up for Justin Timberlake on tour but he's coming back West as of this weekend. Sounds like baby's first concert is definitely going to be daddy followed up by some hard hitting SexyBack.

Pop Quiz, Hot Shot: Week of 8/26/07

This week a lot of celebs skipped the Teen Choice Awards and hit up Vegas for the MAGIC Trade Show instead. The Hills cast took advantage of the weather and spent the day at the beach and we got our daily cuteness when Brad and Z came out to play in New York. Were you paying attention to everything else that was going on?

Bez slams Winehouse and Doherty

Bez

Ok, here’s an interesting insane one.  Bez - remember him?  The manic dancer with the maracas from the Happy Mondays?  Bez has called Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty ‘f*****g lightweights’ for seeking help for their drug problems.  He went on to call them ‘part-time rock’n'rollers’ and said that they should ‘get out more and have a good time’.  

Wow!  I’m speechless!  Like your life’s so cool, Bez - going cold turkey on Celebrity Big Brother, falling asleep in the magistrates court…  Yeah, you’re certainly getting out and having a great time.
