BFFs Flirting is selling Whatever works, right? Kate Hudson turned it on in Rome at the photo call for Bride Wars. Check her out, playing to the camera – Kate’s always been a cocktease but lately it’s been extra amped. Maybe because she knows Bride Wars is extra dumbass.

Britney Spears The abs y’all She’s posted new rehearsal photos on her official site... Chicken Fried abs with no trace of having had booboos, hard at work for the Circus Tour, slaving away for all those mouths she has to feed: her dad, her mom, her brother, her nannies, her ex husbands, and probably By Lainey • Jan 16, 2009 06:19 am
Famewhores Skinny Bitch & Old Hag Lindsay Lohan and her older sister Ali went shopping yesterday. As you can see, she’s loving her weight loss. Loving it. And she’s pretending she’d actually eat that pizza. Right. Those “on set” photos released yesterday – likely not from a film but from some low classy budget By Lainey • Jan 16, 2009 05:12 am

Huge party being planned at her house but first, last night, Kate Moss hit the town for 9 long hours, ending the evening at 4:30am with a bottle of wine tucked away in her jacket.

Break Ups So that explains it In yesterday’s revealing post about Salma Hayek, she was spotted with her baby daddy Francois Henri Pinault but didn’t look like she wanted to be seen with him. Now we know the reason. Apparently he’s everybody’s baby daddy! Rachida Dati, Justice Minister of France, just had By Lainey • Jan 16, 2009 02:24 am

Baby and Bump Obsession Mom comes to help Ben Affleck is on preschool pick up duty. Oh Violet. This child. I love her and I don’t even know her... which totally sounds f-cked up and creepy but that pretty much defines celebrity child obsession these days anyway. The Chosen One Shiloh Jolie-Pitt has more magazine covers than By Lainey • Jan 15, 2009 11:26 am
Girlcrushes Hamm & Tina Last week’s episode of 30 Rock nearly killed me. Why aren’t more people watching this show? Oh right, because it’s up against the ass and balls, of the nasty variety, that has become Grey’s Anatomy. Still…Tina has a loyal following. And she’s a winner. By Lainey • Jan 15, 2009 10:06 am
Girly Throw Downs Why do I like it? Am trying not to…but I do. The Katie Holmes campaign for Miu Miu. The first image was released yesterday and another was posted on People.com today.

Gorgessity What’s up with the baby daddy? Salma Hayek, an improvement on her meh appearance at the Globes, looking gorgeous and unusually UNbusty (relatively speaking) last night at the National Board of Review awards in New York.

Douchebags Sasha Fierce hates dogs? Thank you for your emails about Marcus. He gave us a scare and what topped it off for us was that he was not interested in food. It was a sign of the apocalypse. This is what happens when you eat sh-t. Relief though - he’s turned a corner By Lainey • Jan 15, 2009 04:55 am
