Rihanna graces the colorful cover. - Interview MagazineKanye West interviewed Rihanna in the latest issue of Interview Magazine, and the results were, perhaps surprisingly, quite odd. West and Rihanna have collaborated on tracks many times and are ostensibly friends, yet their chat still managed to be remarkably uncomfortable.

The interview begins with West discussing his own musical projects (of course), before he takes a somewhat flippant tone with Rihanna (re: fashion, "So all the trends with the shoulder pads and that shit is over for you?"). Things take an especially weird turn when -- after a discussion of the pink tank she used on stage during her recent tour (a prop West calls "a great piece of commercial pop art") -- he asks her about her extreme hotness in extremely weird terms.

West: How does it feel to know that you could have any man in the world. Or woman. How does it feel to know that you can turn straight women gay?
Rihanna: Is that a real question?
West: Yeah.
Rihanna: Well... Thank you. I don't know how to feel about that.

Lively may have enough shoes to outfit the population of a small country. - Brian Killian/WireImageBeing a fashion icon isn't all red carpets and cover shoots. There's time and effort involved, sweat and tears, etc. Blake Lively -- Vogue's "Best Dressed" cover girl who famously claimed she doesn't have a stylist -- spent over four hours at Christian Louboutin's invite-only sample sale in New York last week looking through the inventory. She tried on all sorts of shoes and boots "while surrounded by towers of shoeboxes," a detail which befits Lively somehow.

But while the experience of navigating through a crowded retail space and trying lots of stuff on may sound familiar, that sort of nightmare, for us non-Livelys, typically results in the purchase of one, maybe two, items. Or you text a picture of the shirt in question to your friend and you get a text back that says "Eh :-/" and you decide not to get anything.

But things are different when you're Blake Lively. The "Gossip Girl" star emerged from the sale four

What did David Arquette do this weekend? Everything. He got a tattoo of an old man on his arm -- and tweeted about it. He went to Miami -- and tweeted about it. We can't keep up. Is he having a midlife crisis? Is he going mad? (Nah, he's cool, bro. Just listen to Bob Marley and you'll see where he's comin' from). Courteney Cox: If you're watching, do something! Then again, David Arquette would hardly be David Arquette if he didn't Put It All Out There. Let's revisit the actor's zaniest tweets from last weekend:

David has more fun than all of us. - Twitpic/David Arquette

Dance party in Miami! - Twitpic/David Arquette

Crazy. We don't know about you but after viewing these shots of Arquette's wild weekend, we're exhausted. As Cox might know firsthand, there can be such thing as Too Much David Arquette.

Capri Anderson. - Getty ImagesThe Charlie Sheen fiasco continues to unravel in ridiculous ways. After that fateful night at the Plaza hotel, "Teflon Charlie" appeared to be calm and collected, telling people, "I'm not panicking." But he was, in private: TMZ has snapped up some text messages Sheen shot off to adult-film star Capri Anderson. The bad-boy actor offered her $20,000 in exchange for her silence because he felt "really bad."

Hours after trashing his Plaza hotel suite, allegedly locking Anderson in the bathroom and being shipped to a psych ward when the cops came, Sheen texted with the $20K offer. "All I need is an Acct number etc and I will wire u 20k if u think thatwill cover everything," he wrote. "I really feel bad, u are as cool and sexy andas sweet and fun and friendly as they get!" In another text, he cooed: "Don't worry about our mutual friends, deal with me directly and I promise u kind lady, all will be restored and set straight." Anderson (real name: Christina Walsh) never got the money.

Kelsey and Camille at the Tony's in June. - Jemal Countess/WireImageCount on the New York Post to make a somewhat pedestrian gossip item into something utterly salacious. "The wife is always the last to know," begins this Post story about Kelsey Grammer's "secret love nest."

According to the paper, Grammer's wife Camille was "blindsided" when it was revealed the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member's husband was engaged in an affair with 28-year-old flight attendant Kayte Walsh this summer. And now it appears Camille will now be "doubled blindsided" (our term, not the Post's, embarrassingly) by news that Grammer has purchased a $6.5 million apartment in a "sexy glass building" (as opposed to all those asexual glass buildings?) on 11th Avenue in New York City where he will "shack up" with Walsh.

Kelsey was so worried Camille would find out what he was up to, he had everyone involved in the real estate deal sign "top-secret confidentiality agreements" to keep it a secret. Kelsey and Camille -- who have two children together -- are currently

Who's the daddy? - Postsecret.comSo someone sent this postcard to the website Post Secret, just in time for this holiday weekend's premiere of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows."

Look at all these potential baby daddies. Someone out there has a sense of humor because this is simply too weird to be true. Or is it?

Simon and Mezghan together again. - Theo Wargo/WireImageHours after Simon Cowell's fiancee Mezghan Hussainy shot down rumors of a split, Cowell rushed to her side for a show of public solidarity.

They were at the 38th International Emmy Awards in New York, which means he flew from London -- where she's shooting "The X Factor" -- and she flew in from Los Angeles, where she works as a makeup artist.

When approached by the Daily Mail on Sunday, Hussainy responded, "I still love him and he says he still loves me and we are still engaged - as far as I know."

Weird answer. It looks like Cowell thought so too. His quick fix for silencing breakup rumors? A red-carpet photo op. Hussainy's face says: "He loves me!" Cowell's eyes say: "I win. MuahAHAHAHA."

One of her more demure looks. - Jordan Strauss/WireImageWe will say this about Ke$ha: while most Hollywood twentysomethings stick to their talking points in interviews, refusing to talk about their personal or romantic lives or to divulge anything we didn't already know about them, Ke$ha is completely unhinged and completely entertaining. In a new interview in Complex Magazine, the recently mohawked pop star revealed, among many other things, what she looks for in a guy.

The exchange, reproduced verbatim:

Complex: What turns you on that people would find bizarre?
Ke$ha: Um, quarters.

Complex: Really?
Ke$ha: Yeah, like a bag full of quarters.

Complex: So a guy holding a bag full of quarters could potentially turn you on?
Ke$ha: Like a big bearded guy with a bag of quarters. I think it's some weird pirate fantasy that was unfulfilled in a past lifetime.

So, in a way, it's like that dollar sign in her name is a mating signal of sorts.
