The Smiths in business
Will and Jada Smith are collaborating with Simon Cowell on a reality show to find the world’s greatest DJs. Like old school or current? Because, um, these days, sometimes it feels like DJing just involves making a playlist on your iPod. Am I a crusty old lady? Anyway, Simon’s production company SYCO and Will & Jada’s production company Overbrook have agreed on a deal with Sony TV to make the show happen. Full Story
Vanessa says it’s not over
But PEOPLE Magazine said it was over!And PEOPLE Magazine wouldn’t say it was over if it wasn’t over, right? Vanessa Paradis appeared on a French talk show the other day and was asked about the reports that she and Johnny Depp are done. Her response: “People say we are buying houses in the middle of nowhere, or that we have fifty two houses in France. Full Story
Two exes...or one?

Vanessa Paradis was out last night, looking amazing, in Paris at the premiere of Cafe de Flore. Also today at the Chanel show. Have you seen the collection? I posted it over in LifeStyle. No personal questions were allowed on the carpet last night, and the edict was strictly observed. Full Story
The end of Heidi & Seal
TMZ broke the story first. That Heidi Klum will file for divorce. The couple then announced their separation yesterday with an official statement released to PEOPLE.com that they’re ending it because they’ve “grown apart”. TMZ Full Story
Vanessa is done with Johnny ...or vice versa?
You know PEOPLE Magazine. They don’t go with a story like this, and about such a major celebrity, and on the cover no less, without being actively encouraged, without being guaranteed that there will be no subsequent repercussion. As you know, PEOPLE is not Star. To their credit, incredulously, Star Magazine, and Radar, its online stepsister, had this story first - that Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis were over - only they embellished it with so much bullsh-t, it was harder than usual to take them seriously, especially given their track record: one hit in a hundred, if that.

Are they ok?
Getting pounded by emails today re: Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis...Before you panic over any gossip story, please always stop and consider the source. Here’s how I usually operate: If it comes from Star, In Touch, Life & Style, and OK!, it’s like I never read the headline. For those of you interested in this sort of thing, and it’s worth noting if you consider yourself an above average gossip student, Star and The National Enquirer are owned by the same company and In Touch and Life & Style also fall under one parent publisher.

The Video Assumption Foreshadowing
Colin MacFarlane/Splash
You knew while watching the MTV VMAs, right? That it was only a matter of time. Click here for a refresher. This is what I wrote then, based only on Video Assuming his face throughout the show, as he paid tribute to fellow addict Amy Winehouse while his wife took every opportunity on camera to boast about all her tequila shots:“There were times he looked almost pained.

The New Year’s first split?
Katy Perry and Russell Brand spent Christmas apart. That she wasn’t wearing her ring in the photos of her in a bikini in Hawaii - click here to see her WICKED body - wasn’t so much of a super sign. I have friends with big diamonds who take them off at the beach, in the pool, etc. Full Story
Worst of 2011: Scarlett Johansson & Sean Penn
Brandon Todd/Splash
Maybe not the worst, worst, worst hook-up of the year, but definitely down there. Down there for sure. It was around the Oscars. Word got out that they were hanging out. And then a TMZ photo confirmed it. Of the two of them at lunch, her foot between his legs as she was putting a fork in her mouth. Full Story
Making money off Madonna
Guy Ritchie is promoting Sherlock. There’s a short but rather insightful interview in Details and they actually get him to talk about Madonna which I suspect, if given the opportunity, he might do more if people actually gave him a platform. He certainly didn’t seem shy about sharing his feelings with the magazine. Full Story
They un-followed each other
This is what it’s come to, I guess. It’s really, really, REALLY over when you un-follow your husband/boyfriend/girlfriend/lover on Twitter. And re-follow for a booty call, and then un-follow anew to mark that it’s done for good. Shortly after Demi Moore released her statement yesterday that she’s to divorce Ashton Kutcher, they un-followed each other on Twitter. Full Story
Gossip Nostalgia by request
Bauer
After my article yesterday on Jennifer Lopez, Casper Smart, and how she did much better - gossip-wise - back with Ben Affleck, many of you wrote to say (including Sandy C just an hour ago) that you’d never seen the Vegas photos of JLo sitting at the poker table with Ben, realising, as the paps were shooting, that it was totally, finally over. Full Story
Demi is actually leaving Ashton
Major announcement on a Thursday which...Let’s come back to that. Demi Moore confirmed to The Associated Press that she will file for divorce from Ashton Kutcher."It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I have decided to end my six-year marriage to Ashton. Full Story
Gwyneth & Cammie on the road
After hanging out in London last week with Prince Philip who, obviously, was rather taken with Gwyneth Paltrow, G flew to New York the other day with Cameron Diaz. Wonder if Cameron Diaz will be featured in an upcoming issue of GOOP. Perhaps under the “Be” section. How to stop dating douchebags. Alex Rodriguez did not show up in the post season for the Yankees, did he? I mean no, Joe Girardi did not manage well, but for all that money and all that hype - doesn’t he get paid the most out of anyone? - ARod’s playoff performance was record-setting SH-T: the first player EVER to strike out as the final out on the same team two years in a row in the playoffs.
