Big day for PEOPLE Magazine. And they certainly needed the win considering that Us Weekly was owning their asses for the first half of the year. PEOPLE is high on a double exclusive today though, following up their Jessica Simpson baby unveil issue last week with Drew Barrymore’s wedding and the first to report, with confirmation, that Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth are engaged. Full Story

I love the look of a jacket dress and nothing else. If I had reason to, and breasts that could stand on their own like that, I would do the same. The problem here is the hair. She's grown up enough with the bare chest, she doesn't need to add another 20 years to herself with a middle-aged blow out and much, MUCH too much eye makeup. Full Story

Every morning, Kate, my producer at etalk, calls me about my script for the day’s show. Today we were talking about People’s Choice coverage and she was all - holy sh-t Miley’s boyfriend is SO hot. And my response was - haven’t you seen The Last Song? She hasn’t. If you’ve seen The Last Song, you know what I’m talking about. Full Story

Over the last year I’ve seen several gossips—Lainey included—state that Miley “Smoke pot? Not me, never!” Cyrus has earned some affection by drawing down her public persona and making some effort at being a more mature pop tartlet. I’ve disagreed all along, issuing a strong BITCH, PLEASE caution to those jumping on the Miley train. Full Story

None of you are surprised, I’m sure, about Miley Cyrus’s maybe but not really but totally admission that she smokes pot. But, um, don’t ask me to judge her for it. Like, the act of doing it, I mean. Because... well... come on now, honestly? But we were never owned by Disney and put to work at 12, or 13, or however young it is when they start. Full Story

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth are together, again, still. The two were papped at lunch yesterday in Toluca Lake. Here, let me say it: I like them together. A lot. And why? First of all I think it’s too easy now to be all like, wah wah wah, I hate her, she’s so irritating. It’s done. Full Story

What is up with my affection for teen couples? Maybe it’s because I spend so much energy hating on LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian, those people, in comparison to them, it’s all relative. Like, I know Miley Cyrus is insufferable. But you can’t tell me you find her harder to swallow than Rimes. Full Story

Sasha posed this question during the liveblog. My answer was that at gunpoint, I’d take Miley. That’s the point of sh-t vs Diarrhoea – it’s supposed to be hard. I know Miley doesn’t look so tragic here in photos, and you have to remember, the photo agencies generally don’t post too many of the bad ones on these occasions, but during the pre-show with Seacrest, she was working a significant bloat. Full Story

Jesus Selena Gomez is little. Like really, really little. Maybe that’s why, at 18, she’s dating 2 years younger. Duana actually made this point a few weeks ago. Selena looks like a Forever Child and therefore, what non-child-touching man would go there? So I guess that explains Justin Bieber. Full Story

I receive a lot of requests for Nathan Fillion. And because he’s not a cover boy, he’s very rarely papped. It was a nice surprise then to see these shots of him, taken the other night, as he and his girlfriend were leaving dinner. Erm. I’m not sure if I’m down with her outfit. Full Story

It’s the top story this morning: newly 18 Miley Cyrus and a bong. Have you seen the video yet? Yes. The video. It’s here. Click. According to TMZ – somehow they obtained the video so we’re going to go with their substance analysis – Miley is smoking salvia, which is legal. Full Story

The British Fashion Awards are happening in London tonight. Emma Roberts appears to be kind of a thing over in the UK after making a movie over there. Or she wants to be kind of a thing in the UK. Whatever. I’m coming to the point. And the point is that she’s wearing a dress that exposes that tricky area. Full Story

Tomorrow is her birthday. She will be 18. After the American Music Awards last night – photos attached of Miley on the carpet – she hit up Trousdale for her party in a black leather bra and matching pants. Her ma was there – the one who’s been accused of cheating with Brett Michaels (best story ever) – and so was Demi Moore. Full Story
