Showing off her darkened brunette hairdo, Britney Spears was spotted being chauffeured around West Hollywood, California on Monday (December 28).
Sporting her trusty pink booties, the “Gimme More” singer made her way over to the popular Mondrian Hotel - doing her best to sneak into the entrance without being noticed.

Sparrow Madden was decked out in a skull and crossbones hat - just like Shiloh Jolie-Pitt! - for a Christmas outing last Friday with his family in LA. He was nestled in mom Nicole's arms, while Joel kept a hold on his big sister Harlow. It was a fun outing for the foursome, as Nicole and Joel have only rarely shared glimpses of their baby son since his birth in September.

New Zealand actress Lucy Lawless says there's a "truckload of blood," in her new cable television series, Spartacus: Blood and Sand, being filmed at Auckland.
"Life was very cheap then," she said of the Roman era in which the sword-and-sandals series was set.
Lawless told the Jacksonville Observer the series was set in hard times: "You're looking for the triumph of the human spirit in a sea of degradation."
The former Xena: Warrior Princess star is working long hours on the series created by her husband, former Xena producer Rob Tapert. The show, to debut on the Starz channel in the USA next month, has Tapert, Sam Raimi and Josh Donen as executive producers.
The show stars Australian actor Andy Whitfield as the gladiator Spartacus, and Lawless as Lucretia, whose husband (John Hannah) owns a gladiator camp. That's very handy for Lucretia, who is sexually voracious and fancies gladiators.

Sean "Diddy" Combs may have a hit with his latest fragrance, I Am King (it sold out in 16 minutes on HSN last week) but he has yet to rule the celebrity fragrance market here in America.
According to the research whizzes over at Chicago-headquartered Euromonitor International, the venerable Liz Taylor still leads the pack in U.S. fragrance sales, bagging $67.2 million in 2008 for her White Diamonds scent, first released in 1991 by Elizabeth Arden. (Diddy trailed Taylor by nearly $20 million, with 2008 sales of $48.5 million.)
Other scent-sations include Sarah Jessica Parker's Lovely, Derek Jeter Driven and Glo by J.Lo. Any surprises? Well, the polarizing Celine Dion ranked third, inching out SJP by a little less than $1 million. And, somewhat puzzlingly, Antonio Banderas made the cologne cut, too.

Hi :)
I'm currently expanding on my e/s collection and have a possible shopping list for the MAC website. However I'm not yet decided on all the shadows I want. Ideally I'd like to pick a few of my chosen favourites and buy some other shades that pair well with them.
So, I'd be grateful to know which e/s pair well with:
Amber Lights
Contrast
Sketch
Tilt
Swish
Electric Eel
Freshwater
I like dramatic looks - I'm fairly goth but love to experiment with colour, and I like my eyes to look striking. I'm very pale with very light, almost grey eyes (would tell you my hair colour but it often changes, usually black or red!)
Any other recs based on the above criteria would be much appreciated too.
Thanks! <333
Stepping out for an afternoon of football action, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony were spotted out at the Miami Dolphins game at Land Shark Stadium in Miami on Sunday (December 27).
The “El Cantante” couple dutifully posed for pictures before heading to their press box to watch their team lose to the Houston Texans by a score of 27-20.

OMG FRINGE
YOU GUYS... JOSH JACKSON IS REALLY HOT. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU KNEW THAT OR NOT.

When you mention Hugh Jackman to any discerning cinephile, or drop his name in a game of Dream Casting, people will sneer. "That man cannot act." At best, they'll say "Well, he's really good as Wolverine!" before complimenting his physique, While he certainly is good as Wolverine, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with his rippling definition, he can act. It seems he can't pick a script to save his life, but he can act.
( tl;dr, but interesting and bolded )
This made me quite happy because I love this movie and it's greatly underappreciated. Follow-up to my Bill Murray post.

New Doctor Who supremo Steven Moffat reveals why we won't be able to take our
eyes off the Youngest Time Lord yet.
Because Matt Smith is the youngest actor to play the Doctor, people might be
thinking they'll get a "young geezer'" Doctor, but he isn't that. He's restored
the most professional aspect of the character - he's very much the "nutty
professor" Doctor.

I just started watching this show, and I love it.

Zachary Quinto keeps fit and in balance with a special yoga class on Sunday afternoon (December 27) in Los Angeles.
The 32-year-old Star Trek star kept hydrated with a SIGG water bottle, which was manufactured in an ecologically-friendly environment and is 100% recyclable.
Just a few days ago, ZQ was seen hanging out with actress pal Sarah Paulson and her pet pooch.
These are a couple days old, but I didn't see them anywhere.
She looks so much younger and less mannish without all the clown paint.

This has to be my favorite cover she's done on the preshows. I wish she'd get rid of Jill and Kate though. Their voices don't sound good meshed with Kelly's.

Apologies to Kanye, but while Beyoncé had some great videos over the last 10 years, none of them were quite strong enough to make this list. And hold on just a minute, Taylor Swift—that goes for you, too. Mr. West, though—childish public outbursts aside—did land a couple videos on our list.
Two months ago, for a moment there, it seemed all of America was debating or lampooning the VMAs debacle. Soon after the chatter died down, though—after Paste let everybody finish—it wasn't long before we got busy scouring the Web, trying to compile an unequivocally amazing list of the best videos of the aughties.
In a decade defined more by fragmentation and the rise of the niche than anything else, there were no longer two or three definitive outlets for the music video like there had been in the past. For the first time, videos often went straight to the web and were available on countless sites with large and small audiences, and while this was happening, budgets for videos got a lot smaller, too. But after watching hours and hours of videos, we discovered that this didn't mean people stopped making incredible videos. Here's proof...

TMZ Falls For JFK Photo Hoax
Photo that "could have changed history" actually from a Playboy shoot
DECEMBER 28--In a colossal screw-up, the gossip web site TMZ.com today published a photo purporting to show John F. Kennedy frolicking on a yacht with a harem of naked women--except that the image actually appeared as part of a November 1967 Playboy photo spread, The Smoking Gun has learned. The TMZ hoax was billed as an "exclusive" featuring a photo that "could have altered world events" had it surfaced prior to his presidential campaign. "It could have torpedoed his run, and changed world history," the site added.
In reality, the photo appeared in story about Playboy's "Charter Yacht Party: How to Have a Ball on the Briny with an Able-Bodied Complement of Ship's Belles." As seen in the below page from the November 1967 issue, the Playboy photo is in color. The "Exclusive" TMZ image is the same photo, just reproduced in black and white. According to the web site, the photo was "eventually given to a man who owned a car dealership on the East coast. The man kept it in a drawer for years, and would brag to friends he had an image of JFK on a boat with naked women. The man died 10 years ago and one of his sons inherited the photo."
The gossip site offered no further details about the photo's provenance or what they paid for the photo. The site noted that "we believe the photo was taken in the mid-1950s," likely while Kennedy was on a two-week "Mediterranean boating trip" with his brother Ted and Senator George Smathers. TMZ claimed to have consulted with "multiple experts," including a forensic photo expert and two unnamed JFK biographers, as it sought to confirm that the late president was photographed surrounded by a quartet of naked women. According to the caption accompanying the Playboy photo spread, four couples were enjoying themselves on a trip to Petit Rameau, an island in the Grenadines. As "Andy" sunned himself on deck, "Elaine" dove naked into the water while "Roxanna" provocatively shimmied up a ladder.

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz forgets Chicago co-star's name while being interviewed on TV
ASHLEE SIMPSON-WENTZ was left red-faced on live U.S. TV on Thursday - after forgetting the name of her leading man in Broadway musical CHICAGO.
The singer-turned-actress made her Broadway debut as Roxie Hart on November 30.
And, after almost a month of performances, Simpson-Wentz was tongue-tied when asked to recall her co-star Brent Barrett, the actor who plays Billy Flynn, during a segment on breakfast programme, The Today Show.
Embarrassed, the star appeared desperate to remember the name, but instead excused herself: "Oh my god! Names, names, names, names, names."

Oh Ashlee. And it wasn't just forgetting a name. It's someone she's been working closely with for some time. "I forget names all the time" is no excuse lol
Via Gawker.
We were worried that naming Joe Francis Gawker's Douche of the Decade might go to the drunk-girls-with-low-self-esteem kingpin's head. Would he simply rest on his laurels and give up the pursuit of douche perfection? Luckily, Francis has not failed us.
Last night, Francis emailed a nastygram (with a prize inside!) to our vacationing overlord Nick Denton, myself, three attorneys (Cyrus J. Nownejad, Brad Brian, David P. Schack), and for good measure two media contacts: Mike Waters, the news manager at TMZ, and Richard Johnson, the editor of the New York Post's Page Six. Francis is threatening to file lawsuit today over his Douche of the Decade award, claiming that he's lost a $10 million contract because we used the word "rapist" in the bio accompanying the prize. (Last week, when Francis' company lawyer Terry Yeom wrote his own letter, this mysterious lost bit of business only amounted to $4 million.) Here's the missive in full:

Venture Bros. will be splitting its fourth season into two parts, but don’t start complaining yet—since each half-season will be broken up into eight episodes you’ll get an extra three Venture-centric entries in the series than you get from the usual 13-episode arc. We sat down with Venture Bros. creator Jackson Publick to get the lowdown on the new season, the show’s origins, and other things so secret that Brock Sampson would have to kill you if you told another living soul.
( Jackson Publick is a gentleman's gentleman. He is ladies man and a man's man. I would let him use my body like a play ground or a jungle gym... or a Slip N' Slide. )

Amy Winehouse is suffering from nervous exhaustion after she collapsed her home. The singer was treated by a doctor who was called out over Christmas.
A source close to Amy, 26, said she already had a serious chest infection before the stress of her recent arrest by police also took its toll.
The pal said: "She's been told to keep a low profile and fully recuperate. She has been feeling very ill of late and had a funny turn at home. She is quite unwell and exhausted after recent events but is soldiering on."
Amy's pals insist she is not drinking too much or taking drugs.
The source said: "She's doing her best to concentrate on her music and not become embroiled in drugs again. Her new songs are amazing but will be on the back burner until she feels better."

What is everyone's daily routine? Do you do your eyes before your face? List your routine step-to-step.
Mine: 1. Clean/scrub face night before (so not red in morning). 2. Eyes: base, eye shadows, eye liner, mascara, eyebrows. 3. Clean up fall out. 4. Face primer (currently using Nars or Laura Gellar, whichever I pick up). 5. Foundation (currently Maybelline Matte). 6. Blush.
What is your favorite eye and/or lip combo you've come up with?
Mine is currently: Painterly Paint Pot (base), Shroom Eyeshadow (lid wash & highlight) and any color in crease (ex: Club e/s, Violet p/m, Teal p/m or One-Off e/s, etc).
What is your HG moisturizer? Have you found any drugstore moisturizers that cut it better than the high-end moisturizers?
