  • Amy Winehouse Out of Rehab After A Week

    She's out. - Marc Broussely/RedfernsAmy Winehouse's rehab stint is already over.

    The embattled singer, who checked into the Priory Clinic in London last Wednesday, is already out. When she initially checked in, her rep Chris Goodman said she was seeking "assessment" before she began a tour of Europe.

    Seven days later, Winehouse is out and, according to Goodman, "raring to go" for her tour. She will be continuing to seek outpatient treatment as needed.

    The last time Winehouse spent time in rehab was in 2008, for a two-week stay stemming from substance abuse issues. It hasn't been disclosed what this most recent stay was related to.

    (We got through this whole post without making a "Rehab" joke. We think that deserves some sort of acknowledgment.)

  • Sean Penn and Scarlett Johansson Split

    Perhaps there was always a distance between them. . . - Dimitrios Kambouris/WireImageAnd, just like that, it's over.

    The strange relationship between Sean Penn and Scarlett Johansson -- which none of us ever wanted to fully accept as real -- is over.

    People reports that the two are no longer dating, though they disappointingly have no other details about the split or what instigated it. Neither rep commented on the story.

    The magazine mentions that Johansson was noticeably absent from the Cannes Film Festival, where Penn was promoting his "The Tree of Life." Johansson, who divorced Ryan Reynolds last year, has been in New Mexico filming "The Avengers."

    While their relationship may have turned out to be brief, they certainly got their share of headlines out of it: they kicked things off with a flirty, footsie-centric lunch in Los Angeles; jetted to Cabo where they were called "like teenagers in love"; held hands for the first time at no less than the White House Correspondents' Dinner; and they went jogging with Owen Wilson.

    But now that it's over, we're going to try

  • Pink Gives Birth To a Girl

    Pink is officially the coolest new mom on the planet. The pop star and all-around awesome person announced the news on Twitter:

    Pink/Twitter 

    Yesterday the blogosphere was abuzz with rumors that she'd gone into labor, based on a cryptic tweet. Suspicions, confirmed!

    Meanwhile, we extend a sincere congrats to Pink and her man, Carey Hart. Little Willow is one lucky kid.

  • The toned twosome at the Super Bowl in February. - Tiffany Rose/Getty ImagesNo more public displays of ab flaunting, tire rolling and popcorn feeding. According to FitPerez, Cameron Diaz and Alex Rodriguez are broken up. A source says the actress feels "hurt and betrayed, because she tried so hard to please him ... She went overboard!"

    Since breaking up with his ex-wife, Cynthia Rodriguez, A-Rod has gone on a steady binge of famous blondes including Kate Hudson (he dumped her, allegedly) and Madonna (she dumped him, allegedly). Apparently, Diaz moved to Miami to be closer to the Yankees player and his two young kids; perhaps she assumed A-Rod was in it for the long haul, hence the "hurt and betrayed." Perhaps she finally changed her mind about marriage, deciding he was It. In any case, breakups suck.

    A rep for the "Bad Teacher" star did not immediately respond our request for comment.

  • "I thought it was a Make-a-Wish situation." - Getty ImagesJason Sudeikis has dared to incite the Belieber masses.

    Last night on Jimmy Kimmel, the "Saturday Night Live" star -- perhaps testing some material for his hosting gig Sunday night at the MTV Movie Awards -- chatted with Kimmel about the NBA Celebrity All-Star Game, at which Justin Bieber was named the game's MVP.

    Kimmel asked Sudeikis if he trash talked Bieber, who was on the opposite team, which led to the following exchange.

    Sudeikis: "Trash talk him? A little bit. Just a little bit. I didn't even know it was him for the first two quarters, I thought it was a Make-A-Wish situation."
    Kimmel: "You were trash talking a Make-A-Wish kid?"
    Sudeikis: "Yeah, easy target."

    Dangerously close to Ricky Gervais territory here!

    Indicating that he has a sense of humor, Bieber tweeted a link to the YouTube video of Sudeikis and Kimmel's chat with the comment "thanks for making my wish happen." If only all celebrities were this good-natured about comedians' jabs.

  • Wilde may or may not be hangin' with Mr. Cooper. - Getty ImagesWhile it's not unusual for celebrities to refute rumors about them, it's less common for them to target specific outlets.

    Us Weekly ran a report today that Francophile Bradley Cooper and newly single Olivia Wilde are "definitely hooking up."

    The item went on to cite an "insider" who claimed that, at a recent party for the "Hangover II," Wilde "acted jealous when other girls came up to him."

    It continued: "She thought going with Bradley would make [rumored fling] JT jealous."

    Well, Wilde isn't having it, tweeting this afternoon. "I think Us Weekly has the same sources who promised us WMDs in Iraq."

    At least she has a sense of humor about it; however, not to be sticklers or anything, we will note she didn't actually deny the report directly.

  • This is an ad for Revlon featuring Jessica Biel and Pharrell Williams that was, inexplicably, directed by Darren Aronofsky.

     

    It's not that that Jessica and Pharrell don't look gorgeous (they do) or that it's filmed badly or anything (it's not), it just seems really strange that this was an ad that Aronofsky was excited enough to take on, right? Either they offered him a ton of money or else perhaps he was looking for a "Black Swan" rebound that also involved beautiful women and mirrors?

  • Vintage shot of Gwyneth and Apple, circa 2005. - Getty ImagesGwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin have put out an ad seeking a tutor for daughter Apple, 7, and son, Moses, 5. According to the Sun, the couple prefer someone who can teach the kids ancient Greek, Latin, French and Spanish. A potential candidate must be:

    --Fluent in four languages

    --Able to play two instruments

    --An Oxbridge University graduate

    --Passionate about sailing and tennis

    Those are strict requirements. We're pretty sure there's only one person in the whole wide world who can match them. That person might not want to take the job. But wait, there are some perks: they'd get paid a salary of 60,000 pounds for 2-4 hours of work per day. They'd get a free flat in West London, and the opportunity to travel around the world with the whole family. (Yes, we so would. But first, we need to work on the "perfect" part.)

    Where art thou, Mary Poppins? Gwyneth needs you!

  • Just another day in La Vida Lohan. - Getty ImagesIt's beginning to seem that it's impossible for Lindsay Lohan, even when she's under house arrest and can't leave her home, to go a week without causing some kind of stir.

    Lohan, who began serving her 35 days of house arrest last week, received a visit from probation officials on Tuesday when the electronic ankle monitor she is forced to wear went off.

    The Los Angeles Times says it's unclear why exactly the alarm was sounded, but, according to the paper, Lohan was, amusingly, "watching her 3-D TV, browsing scripts and posing for photographs for the tabloids on her rooftop" when the officials arrived.

    "They came as part of standard procedure to make sure the monitoring equipment was working properly," her rep Steve Honig told the Times.

    RadarOnline.com reports that the bracelet likely malfunctioned and that she didn't violate the court order which requires her to stay at her home. TMZ says Lohan was given a new ankle bracelet and "that was that."

    Though haven't we learned with Lohan

  • Whitney at a Grammy gala in February. - Jeffrey Mayer/WireImageSad news: the Enquirer is reporting that Whitney Houston is struggling with emphysema. According to the tabloid, "Doctors have told the 47-year-old singer she's suffering from the early stages of the frightening lung disease -- and informed her in no uncertain terms she must immediately quit smoking or she will die." Last year, Houston had trouble performing on her world comeback tour because she ran out of breath; she ended up canceling concert dates because of respiratory illness. Houston's daughter Bobbi Kristina, 18, is reportedly desperate to help her legendary mom get off cigarettes and reclaim her life. Addiction runs in the family: this spring, the pop icon allegedly ordered Bobbi into rehab after the Enquirer published photos of the teen snorting coke.
