“I could do it, and I mean these lines are getting deeper every day, but when I tell you what’s happened to me – these lines are just about living. Look, I eat really well and I work out, but I also indulge when I want to. I don’t starve myself in an extremist way. You’re not taking away my coffee or my dairy or my glass of wine because I’d be devastated.” – Jennifer Aniston on why she won’t get Botox and dieting in British Harper’s Bazaar.

Someone had to pack up their dancing shoes last night on Dancing With the Stars… Shannen Doherty was the first celebrity to go home. We were surprised to see the 90210 alumnus on the chopping block along with – even more surprising – Pamela Anderson. Sounds like the DWTS audience has something against TV’s bad girls…

Jealous much? Lindsay Lohan is seen here draped in glitz and glam while reportedly sitting front row at Roberto Cavalli’s fashion show in Milan Fashion Week. But this isn’t even the best picture of this event, as after the show she was then seen drapped all over Cavalli himself. Must be nice. And when you have that kind of lifestyle, I guess it really doesn’t matter WHO you are dating, when you clearly have some strings in the world of fabulosity. But this time the rumors that she has gone back to boys may actually be true. Tho Lindsay Lohan says she’s not dating Gareth Geno, a British DJ, all signs seem to be saying otherwise. But then, she also says he’s so cute she’s going to have to move to London. So maybe she’s lying, or maybe the media is lying, or maybe her long-lost twin from The Parent Trap has returned to spread some rumors. The Mirror saw her hanging out with Gareth at Sketch nightclub in London on Wednesday. She was doing a guest DJ stint, and he was helping her. But the club was more interested in what they were seeing than what they were hearing. Lindsay and Gareth were holding hands and he was feeding her chips, the Mirror reports. “Dance!” she yelled to the crowd at one point. “I feel like I’m in a f–king zoo.” Apparently all that work (that work being getting looked at) was too much to bear. She made an early exit, but not before dropping a cute “see you later, baby” on her new DJ arm candy. He joined her later at the snooty club Bungalow 8, where the Mirror overheard her saying, “I have to move to London. He’s so cute.” When grilled by Gossip Cop on the man cute enough for her to quit her life in L.A., she denied everything. “Nooo I am not

It seems that Tinseltown disappointed quite a few people after last night’s Oscar’s, and I don’t think I am the only one that thinks this was one of the worst Academy Award shows ever. It started off with what promised to be a particularly fabulous red carpet, which only proved to be nothing more than a bad bridal runway from the 70’s. Many thought the pace would pick up when the show actually started, but we were then greeted by a rather odd performance of Neil Patrick Harris conducting a Broadway style performance that roasted top nominees and only served to tick them off (our apologies on Neil’s behalf Mr. Clooney). Then we saw the long awaited hosts arrive, and with headlining pair of Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin, we actually thought the show was going to be funny…or at least entertaining….so we kept waiting. When it comes right down to the winners, we weren’t nearly as disappointed as the Avatar people may have been, but the winning nominees seemed to be the only bright point of the night. One thing that many many people are talking about is the obvious oversights during the Oscar In Memoriam segment, and, considering the large number of celebrity deaths seen this year, this was a highly anticipated segment. But, it, along with many other Oscar elements was highly disappointing. If you’re looking for the person to address your hate mail to over the Oscar In Memoriam segment, Bruce Davis is your man. The man behind the controversial segment, which snubbed award-nominated film actors Farrah Fawcett and Bea Arthur to include some publicist no one who doesn’t live an hour from Disneyland cares about, apologized for everyone who was left out. He said the Academy decided to favour screenwriters instead of the actresses and squeezed Michael Jackson in because he was the subject of the documentary This Is It.

“There’s nothing you can say to people, particularly to family members, within a day or two of the show that helps at all. They tend to be surprised and hurt, and we understand that and we’re sorry for it.”

That apology was presumably triggered by an angry statement released by Tatum O’Neal, Farrah Fawcett’s ex-step-daughter. But an apology for leaving everyone out is no good. I’m glad they left pretty much everyone out, because who needs to know the key grip from The Poseidon Adventure died when you’re already 200 minutes deep into an Oscar-induced boredom coma? The problem is they left out people the real world cares about to include insidery Hollywood types. Save it for the Producers Guild Awards brunch! It’s insulting to the public to bill it as a huge television spectacle, and then act like the only people who are watching are big Horton Foote fans. In the terrifying words of Bea Arthur, God’ll get you for this, Bruce Davis! Even top winner of the night, Jeff Bridges says, he’s kind of over the whole Hollywood insider thing anyway. Well, he is seen here carrying around his little golden man, so he can afford to say right now that well, he’s over it all. Oscar-winning actor Jeff Bridges might have just picked up one of the industry’s most-coveted prizes, but he doesn’t want any more fame. He said:

“Growing up in Hollywood, I’ve seen the downside to being too famous. You have to start thinking about staying on top, you have to get calculating, and you can’t walk down the street. They have never been attractive prospects to me. Less fame would be better than more.”

Easy to say that after you’ve won the most coveted award in Hollywood, but given the number of celebrity scandals and drug related deaths this year, he may have a point. Enough is enough for some. Well, the next Academy Awards is officially less than a year away, perhaps they will learn a few things to improve in the meantime. As for Farrah Fawcett and Bea Arthur, they will always be remembered by their true fans, even when nobody else will anymore.

Ah yes, the much talked about Gerard Butler is seen here looking ever so yummy. And in the Oscar buzz, his name was dropped more than a few times due to the fact that he is not shy about revealing just how single he is. In fact, he said he was going to the Oscars alone this year, because he wanted to reserve that date moment for someone
