Britney Spears Runs Over Photog’s Foot… Again


Her driving record continues to worsen, but with such a high number of run-ins, it’s beginning to look like the fault may not totally fall on Britney Spears.

Just last night, the Pieces Of Me singer rolled into the Four Seasons Hotel, managing to catch another paparazzo’s foot underneath the tire of her car.

According to press on the scene, “The drivin’ popwreck was surrounded by photogs as she made her way into the parking lot. The paps refused to move, despite several warnings and documented footage of how Britney rolls. Moments later, Brit shockingly rolled her new wheels over a guy’s foot.”

While “shockingly” may not be the correct choice of wording, the latest incident surely cannot help at the emergency custody hearing scheduled for Friday (November 15) by Kevin Federline’s legal team.

Kim Kardashian’s Show Squeezes Out Second Season


Kim Kardashian was in good spirits as she strolled about Ralph’s Supermarket last night (November 14), as she recently learned that her new show was picked up for a second season.

The “Keeping Up With the Kardashian’s” star’s series has “ranked tops among all ad-supported cable nets in its Sunday 10:30 p.m. time-slot among women 18-34 since the show debuted on October 14th.”

According to press reports, “The latest episode measured by Nielsen Media Research live-plus-same-day ratings, which centered on Kardashian’s cover shoot for the December issue of Playboy, averaged 1.13 million total viewers November 4th.”

Kim’s reality series is produced by Ryan Seacrest Productions and Bunim-Murray Productions. The first season draws to a close on December 2nd, with plans for the second run to start in Spring of 2008.

Lindsay Lohan: Shopping Addict


Though she had a pretty rough go of it so far this year, Lindsay Lohan has managed to stay clean and sober since her most recent stay at the Cirque Lodge in Utah. But it looks like she may have found a new addiction that won’t land her in the Big House, but rather the poor house.

Reportedly, the “Mean Girls” actress has taken up spending massive amounts of money as a means of coping with her addictive personality. And the endless trail of paparazzi photos of the singer/actress trying on everything from clothes to sunglasses to hats isn’t helping her image.

To further the claim, LiLo is constantly filmed and photographed eating at some of Los Angeles’ most exclusive, and therefore expensive, restaurants multiple times a day. It looks like Lindsay needs a little help with her “retail therapy.”

Clinical psychologist Andrew Tatarsky says this kind of behavior is common among people with addictive personalities. “In terms of substance abuse, an overwhelming number of people come out of rehab and resume their addictive behaviors. And many who do stay sober … still find themselves switching to other addictive activities, such as shopping, working or eating.”

He explains, “If shopping can help people manage difficult situations and times, then we might say it’s actually therapeutic. But that’s very different from getting into a compulsive relationship with shopping and letting it become a quick-fix high that gives you a temporary rush.”

Sexiest Man Alive: Matt Damon


If there was any doubt that the “Ocean’s Eleven” franchise was chock full of hunky men, it’s all been put to rest. Matt Damon has been named People Magazine’s Sexiest man alive. And he’s thrilled to accept the title.

“You’ve given an aging suburban dad the ego-boost of a lifetime. My 9-year-old stepdaughter now thinks I’m cool – well, cooler,” Matt wrote in a letter to the magazine.

Two other “Ocean’s” stars nabbed the title before Damon - George Clooney and Brad Pitt. But Matt’s claiming it’s his machismo that helped him grab the 2007 title.

“They are taller than me, but I’m more macho. I pack more testosterone into my smaller frame,” he joked to press.

And Matt’s brother-from-another-mother Ben Affleck even had some fun-poking words for the Bourne Ultimatum star. “For a guy like Matt, 4’11”, 295 lbs., it’s a heck of an achievement… Congratulations, Matt! You did it!”

Hayden Panettiere Hosts Need For Speed Party


While her busy filming schedule has been wiped out by the screen writers’ strike, Hayden Panettiere has been keeping herself busy with a hefty slate of public appearances.

Last night, the Heroes actress hosted a launch party for the new Need For Speed video game at Les Deux in Hollywood.

According to reports from the festivities, “Attendees enjoyed tray-passed appetizers and an open bar, as well as live DJ sets by Junkie XL and Tuner cars on display.”

As far as her NBC show Heroes is concerned, Volume II has three episodes remaining, with the final one airing on December 3rd. From there, the beginning of Volume III has an unknown start date due to the writers’ strike.

Heroes Stars Hang With a Lamborghini Hayden Panettiere


Doing her best “Inspector Gadget” impersonation, Hayden Panettiere hammed it up next to an amazing Yellow Lamborghini sports car.

Panettiere and her Heroes crew, including Kristen Bell and Milo Ventimiglia, stopped by a photo shoot for the Italian carmaker at the Skirball Center in Los Angeles.

And when you’re as rich and famous as these ladies, you don’t have to just look… they hopped in one of the high-priced hot rods and went for a spin.

Of course, they were chauffeured by one of Lamborghini’s people, so as not to fall into the “Lindsay Lohan/Britney Spears” category of celebs in collisions.

After their test drive, the Heroes peeps headed off to a party.

Britney Spears Plans To Go Under The Knife


She’s popped out two kids, and slacked off on her personal fitness regime, but don’t count Britney Spears out yet. There are reports that she’s in the market to have a little work done.

According to the press, the “Toxic” singer is about to undergo a series of surgical procedures in order to restore her body to it’s state before she had kids.

A source close to Spears told press, “Britney rips pages out of magazines with pictures of the perfect body parts she wants. When she sees so many pictures of her in magazines it is impossible for her not to scrutinize every detail of her body.”

Another insider reports, “She is so insecure over how much her body has changed since becoming a mother. She has said she will do whatever it takes to get back to her best even if that means getting a helping hand through surgery.”

Psychologist Linda Blair is concerned that Brit needs something other than plastic surgery to make her feel more confident. “People often think surgery will solve all their problems but it really won’t. Most clinics will not go ahead with a procedure if things are not right with the patient mentally. Patients can experience terrible disappointment if they have surgery and then find nothing has improved in their life.”

Rumor has it that the “Gimme More” singer is set to have a tummy tuck, liposuction, breast enhancement, and rhinoplasty. Additionally, she’ll also have a chemical peel on her facial skin.

But from all of the recent activity, it seems like an announcement could be coming any time now.
