Natalie Portman Natalie & Gael vs the pappies The British side of me knows that gloating is bad form and I also know you’re tired of me harping about this but would you believe there are STILL kindergarten gossips out there who insist on believing that Natalie Portman and Jake Gyllenhaal are dating just because they were By Lainey • Jul 26, 2006 08:00 am
Victoria Beckham The Beckhams’ Waterloo Three years ago, David and Victoria mounted a full scale American assault.

Clive Owen The Daily Hopeless: Amanda Peet This is not the first time she’s been slagged here for her f*cked up fashion sense. Clearly, it won’t be the last.

Jennifer Hudson Kate Hudson in Australia For the release of You, Me, and Dupree. The ponytail is so underrated, don’t you think? Especially this kind of ponytail.

Bryce Dallas Howard and Lady in the Water I LOVE M Night Shyamalan. I have loved everything he’s made, even Unbreakable, which is why I guess it’s no surprise that I loved Lady in the Water - probably not for everyone but definitely, definitely for me. Having said that, I’m also very much looking forward By Lainey • Jul 24, 2006 08:00 am
Victoria Beckham The Beckhams by night By day on the boat, by night on shore – dining at a first class establishment and not shy about flaunting their nearly decade-long love affair.

Jennifer Love Hewitt On Natalie & Gael I’m going to gloat a little bit here. If you don’t want to deal with it, please skip to the next. Sorry y’all, but I gotta defend my smut, you know what I mean? One short year ago, I was naïve enough to think that the craziest, By Lainey • Jul 24, 2006 08:00 am
Victoria Beckham The Beckhams by day If they made it through his ‘98 red card and her solo singing attempt and Rebecca Loos and Esther Canadas and Sarah Marbeck and a masseuse and a nanny and countless other faceless, nameless encounters – does this mean they can make it through anything? Pray Goddess, let it be so. By Lainey • Jul 24, 2006 08:00 am
The Third Person What’s the measure of a truly obnoxious diva? The demands, yes. The attitude, of course. The sense of entitlement, absolutely. But don’t forget a whole new way of speaking to go with a whole new level of success. Girlfriend has taken to talking about herself in the third By Lainey • Jul 21, 2006 08:00 am
Bond is the new Hoff What separates great cheese from moderate cheese is the element of surprise. In his heyday, the Hoff would routinely shock us with new and exciting levels of Hoffassity when we least expected him to.

Charlize Theron Paris Hilton’s Celebrity Lesson Beyond the art of infecting Hollywood with her legendary viral potency or fellating with fervour for the cameras, there are few things that Paris Hilton can contribute to the world of celebrity.

Calista Flockhart: hope for Ellen Speaking of Pompeo, take a look at her predecessor, at the ABC event yesterday with a new show and an impressively decent body.

Ryan Reynolds The Euros weigh in I asked, you answered, and apparently there IS a silent but not so silent majority of readers who don’t care for ooey gooey McGosling details…particularly the ones in Europe. Which means I’m breaking from the daily Ryan and Rachel sugar at least for a couple of weeks. By Lainey • Jul 21, 2006 08:00 am
Ashlee Simpson Jessica Simpson at TRL In my shallow, materialistic mind, most women fall under 2 style categories: 1. Women who dress for women 2.
