The Famous: Watching the Watched
  • File under heartbreaking: Kelly Osbourne had to put her beloved Pomeranian, Noodles, to sleep, and she announced the painful experience on Twitter.

    Kelly Osbourne/Twitter 

    In a series of somber tweets, Osbourne revealed the pup's "brain was swelling in her head," and putting her down was necessary. She repeated the famous Will Rogers quote: "If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went."

    Osbourne took Noodles to the specialist on Tuesday after she had a seizure; the next day, the "Fashion Police" panelist made the agonizing call to pull the plug.

    According to People.com, Osbourne brought Noodles home in March and nicknamed her "Noody Bear." Almost a year ago, she weathered the loss of another pet, a Pomeranian named Woody.

  • Snooki To Launch Flip-Flops Line

    How can we *not* run this picture with every Snooki story from here on out? - Getty ImagesJust because Snooki is in Italy filming the next season of "Jersey Shore," it doesn't mean the wheels of the Snooki Empire have stopped turning.

    Footwear News reported today that Snooki is expanding her footwear line (it had only consisted of slippers) to include flip-flops and wedges, for a launch during the 2011 holiday season. (Well, don't know about you guys, but this is going to make our holiday shopping a whole lot easier.)

    The flip-flops will sell for anywhere from $15 to $50 and feature designs such as leopard print and a pickle design. So basically exactly what you'd expect from Snooks.

  • So cute! But it's not her kid.As word spread online about the birth of Natalie Portman's son, a photo surfaced of the actress purportedly holding the little tyke in her hospital bed. Adorable, yes; real, not a chance. As the site Uproxx notes, the image floating around is merely a still from Portman's 2000 teen-mom drama "Where The Heart Is." But many people took the photo seriously, reblogging it on Tumblr and remarking how beautiful the actress looked after labor. This just goes to show that nobody saw the movie, and that Portman has not aged a bit since she was 18 or 19.

    The movie star and her choreographer fiance, Benjamin Millepied, announced the arrival of their little boy on Tuesday night. It's worth noting that Portman, who takes pride in keeping her personal life private, would never post a baby photo on the internet. Or join Twitter. Or create a Facebook page. Or sell photos of the kid to People magazine for $1 million, with all proceeds going to her bank account. Natalie Portman = not like us, not like

  • No Household Staff for Kate and William Yet

    Even though Kensington Palace had released an ad for a household staff, Kate Middleton has reportedly halted the plans.

    Us Weekly says that Prince William and Kate Middleton will not be hiring a staff yet, as Kate "doesn't want a housekeeper/dresser at Kensington Palace because she doesn't need one right now." Sounds rational!

    Of course, one might think that were you given the rare opportunity to have an entire staff waiting on you hand and foot, you'd totally go for it. But Kate Middleton we are not.

    The couple's private secretary, a man named Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton, told Us the following.

    "We're going to take it a little slower and review at the end of the year," he said, adding sheepishly, "I've never worked for a woman before, as you'd expect in my life of work."

    (Why would we expect that? The second part of that quote is odd!)

    The couple will have some help, though, when they travel to California next month. A hairdresser and administrative assistant will be accompanying them.

  • Behold. - Kevin Winter/Getty ImagesEven though Lady Gaga has said multiple times that the infamous meat dress that she wore to the MTV Video Music Awards last fall would be turned into jerky, it looks as though the iconic outfit will be preserved for at least a little while longer.

    The dress is making its way to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, where it will be displayed alongside costumes such as the bustier Madonna wore on her Blonde Ambition tour as part of a "Women Who Rock" exhibit.

    While perhaps a coup for the museum, we have questions. Does it smell? Will museum goers be able to touch it? And yes, this meat dress gets all the buzz, but is it really the greatest outfit she's ever worn? (We've always been partial to that red fabric-y get-up...)

  • From left to right: Matriarch Elaine Lively and daughters, Robyn, Blake (duh) and Lori. - Eric Charbonneau/WireImageBlake Lively is rebounding nicely from the sexting scandal that could have tarnished her good-girl image. At last night's "Green Lantern" premiere in Los Angeles, the rising young starlet employed several strategies for making us forget about those tawdry pictures seen 'round the internet:

    *She toned down her famous curves in a  lily-white-and-lace Chanel gown, evoking a blend of sweetness and quiet sex appeal, exposing just a glimpse of her legs underneath the sheer skirt. The look says, "I'm a lady. A lady who does not take naked pictures of myself in the mirror!" (Of note: she's denied the woman in the leaked photos is her, but the woman bears a suspiciously strong resemblace to the "Gossip Girl" actress.)

    *She brought her mother Elaine and sisters Lori and Robyn (who you MAY remember from the critically panned yet totally enjoyable 1989 movie "Teen Witch"!) as red-carpet backup. The family solidarity makes Lively appear wholesome and relatable -- and having your mom by your side

  • Justin Theroux Moves In With Jennifer Aniston

    Aniston and "boyfriend." - WireImageRelationships always seem to move at warp speed in Hollywood.

    Even though it seems like Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux just started dating last week, they have reportedly already moved in together. (In fact, the pair started dating in March.)

    Us Weekly says that Theroux is living at Aniston's Los Angeles house and that she is referring to him as her "boyfriend" (we're not really sure why this second part is considered "news" as we would hope she would be calling him that before they moved in together!).

    The 39-year-old Theroux had kept a room at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood during previous trips to Los Angeles. He also has an apartment in New York City, which his girlfriend of 14 years, Heidi Bivens, moved out of last weekend.

  • Getty ImagesSelena Gomez is eating her vegetables from now on.

    The singer, actress and lady friend of Justin Bieber says an overdependence on junk food led to her hospitalization for malnourishment.

    "I do eat," she said on Kidd Kraddick's Texas-based radio show. "The problem is I don't eat right. I love everything that's possibly not good for me."

    According to Gomez, her guilty pleasures include: M&Ms, Snickers, Kit Kats and Goobers. But after last week's emergency hospital visit, she's trying to get on the right track with help from her "Supermom."

    "She's definitely shoving vitamins down my mouth and following me around," she says. "But at the same time, I was a stubborn kid, so I got to eat whatever I wanted. I have to have creamed spinach or cheese on my broccoli. I have to have something that makes it not healthy."

    (An inappropriate aside: cheese makes everything so much better! Why is the good stuff always so bad for you?)

    Anyway, let's hope Gomez takes a break from her insane schedule, in

  • Here is a photograph of the obscure actor Brad Pitt and his partner, character actress Angelina Jolie. - WireImageAngelina Jolie turned 36 on June 4, and Brad Pitt whisked her off to his native Missouri to celebrate. This week's issue of In Touch details the romantic trip, which reads like the premise for a Cameron Crowe movie about love and nostalgia co-starring Brangelina. If this report has a shred of truth to it, then Pitt scored some major life-partner points: according to the magazine (via Jezebel), the "Tree of Life" star aimed to recapture the magic by flying Jolie to his hometown of Springfield, where he dropped off the kids with Grandma and Grandpa Pitt and took the Louis Vuitton spokes-celebrity for a spin in a $70,000 vintage convertible; MEANWHILE, he played a custom mixtape of classic rock songs from 1975, the year Jolie was born. (It's OK to swoon. We get you.) Also: Pitt gave her a nice bottle of wine circa, yep, 1975. They drove to a motel for some Mommy and Daddy Time, and after two hours of that, the pair returned to Pitt's parent's home for a surprise birthday bash.

  • Andrew Garfield, Wilde, Garrett Hedlund, Fox. - Michael Buckner/Getty ImagesBack in 2009, Megan Fox -- who had talked about being bisexual -- offered this gem of a quote to GQ about Olivia Wilde: "Olivia Wilde is so sexy, she makes me want to strangle a mountain ox with my bare hands."

    Wilde responded, quippily, "Of course, anything I can do to save the mountain ox, I'm happy to do."

    Interestingly, at the time, Fox was the one whose star was rising -- the "Transformers" sequel and "Jennifer's Body" were due that year -- whereas Wilde was best known for playing Marissa Cooper's lover on "The O.C."

    Anyway, now, two years later, the two finally met at the Maui Film Festival yesterday (well, they may have met previously, but this is the first time they've been photographed together!).

    Serving as a sobering example of how fortunes can change on a dime in Hollywood, Wilde's career is now the one that is blooming (she's got a whole crop of high-profile movies coming out), whereas Fox has been out of the public eye for some time.

    No word on if any oxen were strangled,
