Britney faking pregnancy??

This is a must read from MSN. Britney is in another world.

Still reeling from those tabloid tales of Britney Spears' purported plans to adopt twins? Then you'd better grab a double dose of Dramamine, because you're gonna feel woozy after getting a gander at the latest cover of In Touch.

"Yes, she's pregnant!" the mag terrifyingly declares. "Ultrasounds, her excited e-mails to friends -- now the father of Britney's third child confirms it's true."

(That sound you hear is either your brain melting or the approaching hoofbeats of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Your call.)

The kicker, according to a source, is that Sean Preston and Jayden James' court-monitored mess of a mommy "won't be happy unless it's a girl."

The supposed daddy-to-be? Music producer and onetime Spears paramour J.R. Rotem, who is quoted as saying of the spawn speculation, "It's true."

While it's unclear whether Rotem was laughing, winking and making a "gotcha" gesture when he allegedly said this, the mag claims Brit e-mailed her ultrasound to pals on Nov. 16.

And it turns out In Touch isn't the only outlet with sources deep inside Britney's uterus.

Star also jumps on the stork bandwagon, offering up -- amid ooky talk of how she allegedly has an X-rated "Fantasy Room" and poop-stained furniture (courtesy of her sons and pets) that we'll spare you from hearing -- a purported MySpace posting as proof.

"Yes, I am pregnant and I am shocked -- almost four weeks to be exact," the tab (via the New York Daily News) claims she wrote in a message. "I don't really know if I'm happy or sad I'm just ... idk [I don't know] I am happy I guess. I saw the ultrasound and it was really kewl!"

Thankfully, there appears to be no reason to panic just yet. Spears' suctioned-on BFF Sam Lutfi tapped out a text to Ryan Seacrest Wednesday morning refuting the bun-in-the-oven rumblings.

"It's BS," he wrote. "Don't know who made it up. J.R. doesn't even know what's up. It's fake. Completely fake."

For good measure, Lutfi also sent a message to People, calling the baby talk a "big lie."

Britney "laughed at it," he says, adding that she probably won't address the story directly because "if she were to give a statement about every lie, she'd be giving statements forever."

(And that just wouldn't be "kewl.")

Lutfi issued the denials shortly after he and Britney finished an all-night video shoot for "Piece of Me," the second single off her rapidly fizzling album "Blackout."

But did the gruesome twosome leave a miffed cast and crew in their wake?

Us Weekly reports the responsibility-rejecting pop calamity showed up 12 hours late for the shoot, which took place at Los Angeles hot spot Social.

Brit was supposedly due on-set early Tuesday morning, but didn't leave her house until after 7 p.m., when Kevin Federline's bodyguards fetched Sean and Jayden.

"I've been there since 3 p.m. and have not shot a thing!" grumbled a dancer to the mag. "I finally finagled my way out. It's all very unorganized. They are calling in more people for late night."

Insiders snitch to TMZ.com that Brit's tardiness was due in part to Kevin's reluctance to alter their existing custody schedule. Seems she wanted him to swap days so she could shoot the video (reportedly already postponed three times), but Federline, "fed up" over his ex's constant visitation changes, nixed the idea.

From the sound of it, however, Britney's presence didn't seem all that crucial to filming.

A set source tells Us she used a "body double to shoot all the scenes that don't require her face."

The video's concept was quite the acting stretch for Spears, who was snapped on-set surrounded by a cast of blond-wigged, trench-coated clones.

"The paparazzi are following her, so they're dressed alike to trick them," a spy explains to People. "They all go into a club to get away. One [photographer] sneaks in, but Britney, in the end, discovers him."

It certainly sounds more compelling than her "Gimme More" video, a slap-dash, quick-cut, widely derided affair pieced together from shots of the Britster flailing around a stripper pole in a skimpy outfit.

"[Spears] is really freaked out about everything," the insider fesses up to People. "She's just really nervous and feels like everyone might make fun of her again."

Jennifer Love Hewitt engaged

The Associated Press

Jennifer Love Hewitt is engaged.

The star of the CBS drama "Ghost Whisperer" got engaged to her boyfriend, Scottish actor Ross McCall last week, US Weekly reported on its Web site Wednesday.

The magazine cited Hewitt's publicist, Sarah Fuller, who said she had no details on the couple's wedding plans.

An after-hours phone message left with Fuller was not immediately returned.

Hewitt also starred in the television series "Party of Five" and "Time of Your Life." Her film credits include "I Know What You Did Last Summer," "The Tuxedo" and "Garfield."

McCall has had small parts in the TV series "Band of Brothers," "CSI:NY" and "Ghost Whisperer."

Johnny Depp buys wife vineyard

Johnny may want to change that "Wino Forever" tattoo on his arm to "Vino Forever." Britain's Sunday Express says the swoon-worthy megastar just purchased a vineyard in Provence, France, as a "token of his love" for Vanessa Paradis, his amour of about a decade and the mother of his two children. The grape grove, which is said to be located not far from the press-shy family's estate, is supposedly Johnny's way of congratulating his warbler wife on finishing her new album.

Hulk Hogan's wife files for divorce

The Associated Press

CLEARWATER, Fla. — Linda Hogan has filed for divorce from her wrestler husband Hulk Hogan, a newspaper reported Friday.

Hulk Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, told the St. Petersburg Times that he had no idea his wife had filed for divorce. He was informed by a reporter that Pinellas County court records showed that the paperwork was submitted Tuesday.

"Thank you for the great information," he told the reporter.

Family spokesman Adam Handelsman referred calls to another spokesman, who did not immediately respond Friday night.

"My wife has been in California for about three weeks. ... Holy smokes," Bollea later told the newspaper. "Wow, you just knocked the bottom out of me."

The couple star in the VH1 reality TV series "Hogan Knows Best," with their two children. Recent episodes show the normally close couple attending marital counseling, but they eventually reconcile.

On Nov. 7, Hogan's son, 17-year-old Nick Bollea, was arrested on reckless-driving charges after a car crash. Clearwater police said Bollea crashed his 1998 Toyota Supra on Aug. 26 while street racing against a silver Dodge Viper driven by a friend. A report said Bollea was driving faster than 60 mph in a 40 mph zone.

Bollea's passenger, John Graziano, was not wearing a seat belt and was critically injured. Bollea, who was wearing a seat belt, was not seriously injured.

Lohan spends 84 minutes in Jail

LOS ANGELES -- Lindsay Lohan was a jailbird for just 84 minutes Thursday, becoming the latest celebrity to serve less than a day for a drunken driving offense.

Lohan, 21, turned herself in to the Los Angeles County women's detention center in Lynwood at 10:30 a.m. She was searched, fingerprinted and placed in a holding cell in the inmate reception area but got to keep her street clothes, sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore said.

"She was cooperative," he said.

Lohan was released at 11:54 a.m. Her original daylong sentence was reduced because she met criteria that took into account overcrowding at the lockup and the fact that her crime was nonviolent, Whitmore said.

Did the celebrity receive special treatment?

"Absolutely not. This is what we do for most everybody in this position," Whitmore said. In fact, 30 to 50 women are granted early releases from the facility every day, he added.

An e-mailed message seeking comment from Lohan's publicist was not immediately returned.

In May, the star of "Mean Girls" and "Freaky Friday" was arrested after crashing her Mercedes-Benz into a tree in Beverly Hills. She was arrested again in July after the mother of Lohan's former personal assistant called 911 to report that her car was being chased by an SUV. The chase ended in Santa Monica, where police arrested Lohan for being behind the wheel. In both cases, Lohan was found in possession of small amounts of cocaine.

In August, she reached a plea deal on misdemeanor drunken driving and cocaine charges stemming from the arrests.

Heath and Hudson??

Kate Hudson is denying a volley of reports which accused the star of hooking up with gay cowboy Heath Ledger. The New York Post said Hudson was "kissing and making out" with Ledger Thursday night at a Manhattan hot spot. Kate, who has been getting around since the divorce with Black Crowes lead singer Chris Robinson, denies the event ever occurred. Heath has also been released back into the wild following his September split from Michelle Williams. Rumor is she has never looked at Heath quite the same since Brokeback.

Britney buys new sports car, almost kills kids

Instead of getting a new family car, Britney decided to buy a new Mercedes SL65, after she has both failed a drug test and ran a red light with her children in the car. I guess sending that text message is more important than your to kids.

Lopez confirms pregnancy

At her final concert last night, Jennifer Lopez finally confirmed what everyone had already known for months, shes pregnant with Marc Anthonys baby.

Nick Hogan caught ridin' Dirty

According to Perezhilton.com, Nick Hogan got caught ridin dirty.

We hope they have a whole team of expensive lawyers, the Hogans are gonna need it to get son Nick out of this shit pit!

Even though he’s only 17 years old, Nick was arrested Wednesday morning in Tampa and will face FELONY charges of reckless driving involving serious bodily injury.

Hogan was involved in a car crash in August that left his passenger and friend, who was not wearing a seatbelt, with permanent brain damage.

Though the Hogans keep trying to paint the crash as an “accident”, police are telling a much different story.

This morning’s arrest report included new details about the crash.

Detectives report that Nick was racing a second car, before the crash, at speeds of over 60 mph through the 40-mph zone, which was wet from recent rains.

While investigators concluded that the actions of the other car’s driver were not a contributing factor in the crash, that driver, Daniel Jacobs, is being issued a summons to appear in court for reckless driving charges.

Additionally, and more damaging, police also cited Nick for having a blood alcohol level of .02 or higher. Any BAC above 0.00 would be illegal for the 17-year-old.

That poor kid. And, no, not Hogan! That poor kid that’s still in the hospital and brain dead.

Hopefully, justice will be served!

Britney leaves kids in Car to shop

And you wonder why they gave the kids to K-Fed.

Leave it to Britney Spears to turn a humiliating indictment of her mothering skills to her advantage. On Sunday, TMZ.com captured the sense-impaired screw-up as she exited her car and left Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, who were strapped in their car seats and in the line of paparazzi fire, under the watchful eye of the court-appointed monitor.

So, what pressing business prompted Calamity Brit to treat the woman whose opinion weighs heavily in her custody battle with Kevin Federline as her personal babysitter?

Was she checking to see when "Bee Movie" was playing? Or stopping to get directions to the nearest petting zoo? Or running into a bookstore to buy the entire Dr. Seuss collection with some of the $700,000-plus she rakes in every month?

Nope.

Turns out the mangled-maned chart-topper (despite everything, "Blackout" is a hit) was shopping for a chandelier, a luxury lighting emergency that cut into the three supervised visits per week she's allowed with her sons.

Spears' personal paparazzi contingent snapped her gazing at the bright and shiny wares at a store called the Crystal Palace, while back in the car the monitor appeared to do her best to keep Sean Preston entertained.

She even managed to win a rare smile -- distressingly dentally challenged though it looked -- from the little guy, using a little-known technique that involves actual adult-to-child interaction.

Alas, this wasn't the only instance Britney's complete lack of judgment was on display over the weekend. She hit a tanning salon on Saturday, a bronzing appointment so important she couldn't be bothered to find legal parking.

Apparently unaware that cluelessness is not a recognized disability, she pulled her white Mercedes convertible into a clearly marked handicapped spot (as captured by shutterbugs) and traipsed off to age her skin prematurely.

At this point, Britney would be wise to take advantage of the sympathy pangs being felt by one of Hollywood's biggest stars.

Julia Roberts is offering the cautionary tale a safe haven, although she might want to think twice about any playdates involving twins Hazel and Phinnaeus and newest arrival Henry.

"I see and hear what's happening to Britney Spears," the Oscar winner tells the December issue of Vanity Fair, "and it's all I can do not to move her into my guesthouse and say, 'OK, this is how it's going to be!' And just take care of her."

Are Owen Wilson and Jessica Simpson together??

From MSN:

They're both blond Texans with bumpy noses, but are Jessica Simpson and Owen Wilson trying to discover if they have a deeper connection? So claim the shutterbugs at photo agency X17, who are convinced the stacked, sinewy starlet, 27, and the on-the-mend funnyman, 38, had a hush-hush rendezvous Sunday night in Los Angeles.

Jessica and Owen reportedly turned up separately at the swanky Huntley Hotel in Santa Monica and proceeded to enjoy an hour-long tête-à-tête.

"They looked cozy, like it was a first date," a bystander tells X17. "They both looked kind of nervous. And they were obsessed with not being recognized or photographed. Hotel security was on high alert and they both had escorts when they left."

Perhaps the fair-haired pair was simply worried about sparking romance speculation over a 60-minute meeting, which is short even by really bad date standards.

Star, however, says things went so swimmingly they soon made a beeline for Owen's Malibu pad.

"He couldn't keep his hands off her," a spy asserts to the tab.

Still, a source close to Jessica downplays the dating rumors to MSN Entertainment, insisting she's just pals with the once and perhaps future Butterscotch Stallion, who is gradually tiptoeing back into the public eye after his reported suicide attempt in August.

Seems the two decided to meet up after hanging out at Willie Nelson's Oct. 16 video shoot at his Austin-area ranch, where they took part in the so-called Bad Boy Lawnmower race with the likes of Woody Harrelson, Dan Rather (?) and Owen's brother Luke, who co-stars with Simpson in the rumored-to-be-heading-straight-to-DVD "Blonde Ambition."

When contacted about the hotel confab, Jessica's spokeswoman told MSN Entertainment she doesn't comment on her client's personal life.

Wilson's mouthpiece, however, pooh-poohs the hookup whispers to "Entertainment Tonight," calling the meet-and-greet "purely accidental" and denying they're an item.

This isn't the first time Jessica and Owen's romantic paths have crossed in recent days. Turns out the tabloids have painted them into a bit of a love triangle rectangle.

On the heels of her alleged blink-and-you'll-miss-it liaison with Orlando Bloom, the former Mrs. Lachey and onetime squeeze of John Mayer has supposedly been getting to know her "Employee of the Month" co-star Dax Shepard, at least according to an Australian tab.

Meanwhile, Britain's Heat magazine believes Wilson, who has recently been snapped spending quality time with ex-girlfriend-cum-burlesque dancer Carolina Cerisola, is feeling optimistic about reuniting with ex Kate Hudson, who purportedly handed Dax his walking papers a few weeks ago after very publicly tangling tongues over the summer.

The problem with these ostensible love connections?

Hudson and Shepard were together on Saturday night, when the actress hosted a star-packed Halloween bash at her Los Angeles mansion.

Maria Sharapova suing for crotch shot

In TV commercials for her sponsor Canon, Maria Sharapova encourages viewers to "make every shot a power shot."

This probably isn't what she meant.

The head of a Japanese ad agency secretly snapped crotch shots of the tennis icon as she posed for a Canon ad in 2005, according to a federal lawsuit, the New York Daily News reported on its Web site.

Toyo Shigeta, CEO of Dentsu Holdings, snapped the pictures to satisfy his obsession with photographing women's private parts, according to the suit filed by Dentsu's fired former creative director, Steve Biegel.

"Taking closeup crotch shots of women is a personal obsession of defendant Shigeta," Biegel claims in his suit.

Biegel, 44, said the company fired him after he complained about Shigeta's propensity for pornographic picture-taking.

Biegel also alleges that he was forced to go to a bathhouse and a Prague brothel, where Shigeta urged the married Biegel to have sex with a prostitute.
And the alleged shot of Sharapova's private area? It's attached to Biegel's complaint as Exhibit B.
