Looks like happy times for Nicole Richie once again. There are now reports that Nicole and DJ AM are now unofficially engaged and planning to tie the knot later this year. Because this is a re-engagement there is no need to to buy a brand new ring. According to friends, Nicole is going to redesign her old engagement ring.
Nicole is very superstitious and doesn’t want to jinx the second-go-round romance with the same ring. According to reports, Nicole met with Los Angeles jewelry designer Nancy Davis, who designed her first ring, about creating a new design.
Nicole doesn’t have to worry about being jinxed, all she has to do is start eating.
According to Female First, Paris Hilton was desperate to get her breast a few sizes bigger. That all changed when her dad, Rick Hilton, told her how sleazy it would be.
Years ago, I asked my dad for a boob job and he said it would cheapen my image.
I guess daddy Hilton neglected to tell her that making sex tapes in night vision is also sleazy. I wonder how much famous Paris would be if she gotten herself a set of melons?
The conversion has finished and Katie Holmes is now a full blooded Scientologist. Tom Cruise tells all in an interview with Diane Sawyer. the following is an excerpt:
Cruise suggested Scientology’s doctrine of “silent birth,” emphasizing a calm, quiet atmosphere in the delivery room, free from screaming and shouts of “push!,” was misunderstood and exaggerated by the media.
“It’s basically just respecting the mother, you know, and helping to be quiet. (But) not the mother. The mother makes as much noise … you know, she’s going through it. She does what she’s gotta do, OK?”
Contrary to perceptions that Scientology frowns on giving painkillers to women in labor, Cruise added: “We’re there, you know, with doctors. … Whatever the woman wants. … If she needs an epidural, she’s gonna get her epidural.”
He denied a tabloid report that he had bought an adult pacifier to muffle the moans of his 27-year-old fiance.
Asked whether their baby would be given a Catholic baptism, Cruise said, “No,” then added: “I mean you can be Catholic and be a Scientologist. You can be Jewish and be a Scientologist. But we’re just Scientologists.”
“Katie, too?” Sawyer asked.
“Katie, too,” he replied.
It was the first public acknowledgment from the couple that Holmes has joined Cruise, one of Scientology’s most prominent adherents, in embracing a faith founded by science-fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard.
I bet the prenuptial is really good, for the family to be OK with Katie becoming a Scientologist.

Rapper Marshall “Eminem” Mathers might be suicidal according to a close friend of his. The friend who will remain anonymous, is claiming that Eminem’s recent break-up with his two-time wife Kimberley Mathers and the tragic death of his best friend, Deshaun “Proof” Holton, may be too much for the rapper to handle.

I’m not sure that [Eminem] can handle all this … I’m worried that he may try to hurt himself.
Eminem is no stranger to suicide in the past. He had attempted once in 1997 when he took more than a dozen pain killers. That attempted suicide was after his Kimberley left him and forbid him from seeing Hailie.

Magician David Blaine has gotten a brand new and wacky stunt up his sleeve to amaze you all. Past tricks included a balancing act for 35 hour, living inside a ice block for 61 hours, and not eating for 44 days.
This time its sleeping with the fishes, well more like a human aquarium or a personal pool. This stunt will consist of Blaine staying inside a eight-foot acrylic sphere for seven days at outside of Lincoln Center in New York city. At the end of the stunt Blaine will go for the world record by holding his breath for more than 8 minutes, 58 seconds.
Lets hope they make that acrylic sphere bulletproof, cause we all know how those New Yorkers will want to pop that bubble. This whole thing will take place on May 1st and you all can watch the end live May 8, 2006 on ABC.

During a fundraiser for the Beth Tfiloh Dahan Community School in Baltimore, Oprah Winfrey talks about how fantastic it was that shes ao rich.
I have lots of things, like all these Manolo Blahniks. I have all that and I think it’s great. I’m not one of those people like, ‘Well, we must renounce ourselves.’ No, I have a closet full of shoes and it’s a good thing.
I was coming back from Africa on one of my trips. I had taken one of my wealthy friends with me. She said, ‘Don’t you just feel guilty? Don’t you just feel terrible?’ I said, ‘No, I don’t. I do not know how me being destitute is going to help them.’ Then I said when we got home, ‘I’m going home to sleep on my Pratesi sheets right now and I’ll feel good about it.’
There you have it people, being rich is great, if you ever become rich don’t feel guilty about being rich.

The couple with the most style in Hollywood award goes to Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon. The other couples on the list are:
Louis Vuitton has has came to their senses and decided to not go with Lindsay Lohan as the replacement for Gisele Bundchen. The fashion house has decided to go with supermodel and allegedly assistant beater Naomi Campbell.
Early rumor had Lindsay as the future new face of Louis Vuitton, due to designer Marc Jacobs being good friends with her. All that changed when the bosses thought Lindsay was too American for their global brand.
We all know why Naomi was really chosen to do this, any publicity is good publicity. Remember Kate Moss and post cocaine video tape scandal.
Katie Holmes has agreed to the ban of not talking to her new born baby for seven whole days. This ban is part of the Scientology’s creed:
All followers must live by, that new born babies must not hear their mother speak for a week so they will not associate their voice with the trauma of birth.
Not sure about the part of the creed that says the baby should:
be wrapped somewhat tightly in a warm blanket, very soft, and then left alone for a day or so
What kind of religion suggest you leave your new born baby to fend for itself the first few days of entering Earth.
Besides not talking to the baby, Katie has also agreed to give birth in complete silence and to have limited contact afterwards. All this according to a source from Closer magazine:
Katie respects Tom’s dedication to Scientology. She is devoted to him and wants to bring up the child the Scientology way.

Only in America can you sue someone else for your own stupidity. A Drug Enforcement Administration agent by the name of Lee Paige has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government for distributing the embarrassing video of him shooting his own foot during a drug education presentation.
The funny part of the video was Paige saying, “I am the only one in this room professional enough that I know of, to carry this Glock 40.” That was before he went and shot his own foot. Luckily he didn’t point that gun at some student thinking he had already empty the chamber.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt to get the protection of wild lions. I must not be sleeping enough, because I must be reading things. According to a Namibian newspaper:
the pair had moved from a luxury beach resort in the harbor town of Walvisbay to a lodge in the Etosha National Game Park in northern Namibia, where lions are a top tourist draw and would help deter intruders trying to photograph the couple.
Sounds like Angelina is one confused and pregnant mommy, first there was talks of giving birth in France as a tribute to her mother. Maybe after watching the Lion King, Angelina got the idea of using lions to scare the paparazzi away.
