The Famous: Watching the Watched
  • Tada! - Jenny CraigCarrie Fisher says she is 30 pounds lighter, thanks to her gig as Jenny Craig's newest celebrity ambassador.

    "Terrible that I had to do it," she tells us, "but now I have to lose more!"

    Fisher dropped the weight over an 18-week period through a plan-approved diet and exercise, and was around 170 pounds when she joined Jenny Craig last November. "I've had to learn how to eat differently," says Fisher, who quit indulging in her six-Cokes-a-day soda habit, and her fetish for peanut butter. "I have only cheated with rice pudding, so what the f--k?"

    The 54-year-old actress and author, beloved for her brutal honesty and raw humor, says she shed "five inches in my t--ts," slimming down from the double-digits to a D-cup. "I can go to a regular store and buy a regular size bra," she marvels. "It's ... unbelievable."

    Earlier this year, fellow Jenny Craig spokeswoman Valerie Bertinelli revealed her desire to do a big "swimsuit reveal" with the "Star Wars" icon. 

    Is she game?

    "Not right now, I

  • Maria Shriver has hired tough divorce attorney-to-the-stars Laura Wasser, TMZ reports. She enlisted her services before Arnold Schwarzenegger's baby mama bombshell went public, but is not yet ready to cut ties with her philandering husband because of his emotional hold over her. Wasser's past clients include Christina Aguilera, Angelina Jolie and Britney.

    Meanwhile, the baby mama, Mildred "Patty" Baena, allegedly had an obsession with Shriver, so Shriver's camp sources tell TMZ. 

    This is getting uglier and uglier, and who knows how many other secret love children will surface given Ah-nold's rumored infidelities and collective stupid behavior? We predict a divorce filing by week's end.

  • At the Royal Wedding. - Danny Martindale/FilmMagicTwo things we can expect on the Fourth of July: fireworks, and the birth of Victoria and David Beckham's baby girl. According to the Daily Mail, a British tabloid with juicy gossip and sketchy sources, Posh booked her C-section for the American holiday ... because she really, really loves the U.S.A.

    A source says, "Vic and David love America, its culture and her people, who have welcomed them with open arms."

    The former Spice Girl-turned-fashion designer originally planned to give birth in London, but wanted to have the baby in her adopted hometown of Los Angeles. Her rep squashed the endlessly amusing rumor that she picked the name "Atlanta" for their daughter, as a tribute to their adopted homeland.

    Boo! We secretly love it when celebrities choose vanity names for their kids -- it seems like a competitive game to see who can come up with the most "creative" moniker. (See: Ashlee Simpson's Bronx Mowgli, Nicole Kidman's Sunday, Mariah's Moroccan and Monroe, Gwyneth's Apple).The

  • A newly svelte Hill. - Michael N. Todaro/FilmMagicThe actor and rapper were apparently seated next to each other on a flight this morning and Hill offered a report via Twitter.

    "Sat next to 50 Cent on the plane," he tweeted from his iPhone. "Great guy. Had that awkward 'when do we put in the iPod headphones and end the convo moment' about 4 times."

    Judd Apatow responded, quippily.

    "I think he thought that while you thought 'he loves talking to me. He is just smiling and ordering beers and is so quiet.'"

    Hill immediately wrote back, "I was hoping people who saw 50 Cent and I on the plane would think we were on some sort of 'Eat Pray Love' type of trip together"

    That version of "Eat Pray Love" would have undoubtedly been more entertaining than the actual movie (not that the bar is at all high).

  • Zsa Zsa in better days. - Ron Galella/WireImageZsa Zsa Gabor has taken another turn for the worse: she has fallen into a coma, and has been unresponsive since 2 a.m. this morning, TMZ reports. The 94-year-old veteran actress and socialite went to the hospital on Tuesday; doctors performed emergency surgery on a "major infection" in her stomach that was caused by a feeding tube. Gabor has been in and out of the hospital for months, struggling with a blot clot that resulted in the right amputation of her leg. Meanwhile, her ninth husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, had been attempting to make the ailing star a mother again using harvested eggs. Stay classy, Prince Fred.

  • Got $18,301? That's what Gwyneth Paltrow suggests her Goop readers spend on spring clothes. For real -- and totally ridiculous, even for a woman as polarizing as Paltrow. (Here are seven reasons people hate on her.)

    In the latest entry on Goop's "Get" category, she partners with shopping site Net-a-Porter to offer clothing recommendations for spring. Among her picks: a leather Chloe clutch that retails at $1,295, and a silk jacket by the fashion label for $1,840. There is a $90 T-shirt. That's right, a T-SHIRT.

    These are "great pieces which are versatile enough to wear to the office and during your summer leisure time," quoth she.

    Clueless, table for one? For someone as ubiquitous and mainstream as Paltrow (she's everywhere, writing cookbooks and singing with Cee-Lo!), she can be painfully off-key when it comes to how most of her fans live. We'd like to see demographics for who's reading Goop, and how many of those readers are actually going to buy a $1,840 jacket.

  • The Royal Honeymoon Sounds Idyllic

    Private butler and more for the newlyweds. - Getty ImagesWhile we are suffering an insanely gloomy week of weather (in New York City, at least), why not masochistically read all about bout Prince William and Kate Middleton's completely idyllic-sounding honeymoon?

    According to Us Weekly, here are a few of the amenities the newlyweds are enjoying on the Seychelles, where they have rented out 11 villas (at a cost of $720,000):

    -- a private butler who "tends to their every whim"
    -- an open air bath filled with frangipani flowers (we have no clue what these kind of flowers even are, but they sound fantastic)
    -- golf carts and mountain bikes (eh, that's kind of whatever)
    -- two bedrooms and 5,000 square feet of space per villa

    The current weather in the Seychelles, located in the Indian Ocean: partly cloudy, in the eighties.

  • Brad Pitt: ‘Breakfast Is My Specialty’

    "When I know, I know, and why mess around?" - Mike Marsland/WireImageBrad Pitt knows the best way to drum up publicity for a new movie is to talk as much as possible about his family, and he is going all out now that we're just weeks away from the premiere of his "Tree of Life."

    Pitt talked to the Associated Press at Cannes about the Brangelina brood, acknowledging that his rapid shift from having no children to becoming a father of six may seem somewhat "extreme."

    "I know it seems extreme from the outside, but I've always kind of operated this way," Pitt said. "When I know, I know, and why mess around?"

    (We're sure Jennifer Aniston will love to hear that quote.)

    Pitt said the large family of a close childhood friend has influenced him.

    "I had a friend who had a big family when I was a kid," he explained. "I just loved the chaos around the breakfast table and the fighting and the ribbing, and the mom making pancakes for everyone or the dad making pancakes... I just decided then if I was ever going to do it -- this left some indelible mark on me -- if I

  • Notice how Simon Cowell is the only one not smiling. - Daniel Boczarski/Getty ImagesThere was a mass celeb-splosion on Oprah's two-part finale taping. Making appearances: Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise, Jamie Foxx, Halle Berry, Stevie Wonder, Beyonce, Jerry Seinfeld, Rosie O'Donnell, Simon Cowell, Maya Angelou, TylerPerry, Alicia Keys, Aretha Franklin, Usher, Will Smith,Katie Holmes, Kristin Chenoweth, Dakota Fanning and a scandal-plagued Maria Shriver. Also, Madonna! And, Michael Jordan!

    According to Radar, Hanks and Cruise open the show, and there is a surprise marriage proposal in the studio audience (no, not between Oprah and Gayle). Some 13,000 fans gathered at Chicago's United Center to witness the A-list lovefest, with Smith praising her as "a goddess."

    Madonna perhaps best summed up the mega-mogul's superhuman powers, gushing: "She's a self-made woman who's been at the top of her game for over 25 years and she is still kicking ass and encouraging people to dream big, to work hard, to read a book, to ask questions, to get an education no matter who you are or where

  • Kelsey Grammer Seeks Full Custody of Children

    In happier times. - Getty ImagesKelsey Grammer is seeking sole physical custody of his two children with ex-wife (and "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star) Camille Grammer, according to TMZ.

    Grammer filed the legal documents yesterday in L.A. County Superior Court.

    Kelsey is looking for sole physical custody (with joint legal custody), which would mean either he or the children would need to relocate, as Kelsey is current living in Chicago while his children live and go to school in Los Angeles. Sources told TMZ that the children have "been having emotional difficulty" dealing with the ramifications of Kelsey's "walking out and divorcing their mom."

    Meanwhile, "sources close to Camille" are apparently laughing at Kelsey's move, claiming that Camille has been "a full-time mother" while he has been "nothing but uncooperative" in their custody discussions.

    TMZ ends its account with the dramatic conclusion, "She was willing to give him 50/50 custody, but now all bets are off." All bets are off!
