The celebrity news you may have missed!
10. Katie’s Armani Gown
Armani’s Media Planning Department has said that famed designer Giorgio Armani has been asked to design Katie Holmes’ wedding dress. Is it just me or are you wondering why it is taking so long for this wedding to occur?
9. Divorce for Sara Evans
If you have been watching “Dancing with the Stars” (and even if you haven’t!), you have heard that contestant/country singer Sara Evans had to drop out because she is going through a divorce. Hopefully they can work things out for their three children.
8. Vince Gets Tough with the Newspapers
Vince Vaughn is set to sue two London papers and the New York Post for printing a photo of him kissing an unidentified woman. He maintains that he and Jennifer Aniston are still dating and the photo makes him look like he has been unfaithful. Gee Vince, you think?
7. Bindi Carries on Dad Steve’s Work
Bindi Irwin is determined to continue in her father’s footsteps. She is currently filming a 26-part documentary called “Bindi, The Jungle Girl.” Some people are skeptical about this, but I think it will be a wonderful way for her to always feel connected to her dad.
6. Matt Damon’s New Charity
Matt and the production team for the documentary Running the Sahara have set up the H20Africa charity to raise awareness of the water problem in Africa and support clean water programs.
5. Wesley Snipes Tax Woes
Wesley Snipes has been indicted on eight counts of tax fraud. He reportedly owes the IRS millions and right now, no one seems to know where he is. Isn’t it odd that man quoted as saying “Always bet on black” in Passenger 57 is now in the red?
4. Rosie to Get a New Show?
Rosie O’Donnell has been hilarious as the Dawn Budge character on “Nip/Tuck” recently. Now she is reporting on her web page that FX has asked her to do a spin-off show featuring that character and she has said yes. Hum, I wonder if this will be in addition to “The View” or instead of?
3. Haley Joel Osment Pleads No Contest
If you remember, Haley Joel Osment was accused of driving under the influence and being in possession of marijuana in July (see Michele’s blog for more info). He pleaded no contest this week and was sentenced to 3 years probation, 60 hours of alcohol rehab, and must attend 3 months of Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.
2. Gina Lollabrigida Marries
This might not make the news except her husband-to-be is 34 years younger than the 79-year-old star. But don’t think this is a rash decision on Gina’s part – the two have been dating for 22 years.
1. Daniel Smith Buried in the Bahamas
Despite the fact that a drug combination killed him, this is still a very sad story. I can only imagine that Anna Nicole is planning to stay in the Bahamas since she buried her son there. I wonder if part of her reasoning for staying there is to keep from giving a paternity test to Larry Birkhead, who says he’s the father of her baby.
