Do blondes really have more fun? Not according to Cameron Diaz, who ditched her trademark, light locks a few weeks ago. Take a look below:

Meanwhile, Carmen Electra seems to be taking the opposite route. Because marrying Dennis Rodman and then Dave Navarro was not exciting enough, the occasional Pussycat Doll and unemployed TV personality has gone blonde.

What do you think, fans? Wait, are there any Electra fans anymore? That's a debate for another time.

Fans of Grey's Anatomy have enough to worry about as they hope for Meredith and Derek to finally get together.

But recent, on-set news of a fight between Isaiah Washington and Patrick Dempsey has revealed actual tension and controversy on the show.

As a result of the alledged melee, TMZ has discovered a history of violence on the part of Washington. It's the stuff that would make an irate Justin Timberlake appear calm and collected.

In 2000, Washington lost his temper on the set of the Showtime series Soul Food with the actress who played his wife. The on-screen couple were shooting a scene in which Isaiah was supposed to give the woman a superficial kiss; but Washington grabbed the woman and planted a "forceful, aggressive kiss."

The actress became irate, Washington became infuriated and Pete Doherty felt better that he isn't the only person who doesn't kiss properly.

But, seriously. Washington's short fuse also reportedly cost him a job in 1997 on the set of the TV show High Incident. The actor was scheduled to be a guest star on the show, but the gig ended abruptly after he had a physical altercation with a crew member.

According to TMZ, the incident was serious enough that police were called in. Not the fasion police - they were too focused on Mischa Barton. The actual police, with badges and guns and everything.

Considering the waif-like proportions of this actress, such a statement seemed like news. It also got us to thinking: If Jennifer Love Hewitt likes hamburgers, what secrets would other stars be hiding from us?

• Does Matthew McConaughey love the confiding feeling of a shirt?
• Is Kevin Federline a talented opera singer?
• Does Heather Mills possess a Master's in Conflict Resolution?

If you had asked us a week ago about the answers to these questions, we'd have scoffed at the notion of any response in the affirmative. But who knows.

Is it really any more difficult to imagine Lorenzo Borghese actually being born and raised in Hoboken, NJ than it is to think of Jennifer Love Hewitt mauling some rare meat?

After chronicling the life and times of Suri Cruise for like, ever, we're excited to see what the little Asian cutie will be going as for her first Halloween.

As we talked about a few weeks ago, there are certainly a ton of spooky costume options out there. But we don't feel those are up Suri's alley. Going as a starving Kate Bosworth, while topical and not unfunny, is probably too scary for a little tyke.

We came across a fun website, however, where you can dress up TomKat's spawn in a variety of costumes. Follow the link and make your own! Here's what we came up with:

Not sure which is our favorite among the ones we made. Probably the one on the right, in which Suri is naked except for a grass skirt. A little risque, but what's Halloween without pushing the envelope? We also think Katie Holmes' daughter makes a good alien freak, but that's just us

Regardless, it's fun for the whole family. Unless you believe in Scientology, of course, in which case you probably think Halloween is sacrilegious and $h!t.

Evidently, magical powers can only take you so far. They may help Harry Potter escape trouble, but it's another story when it comes to finding a date.

"It's always a worry, yeah," Daniel Radcliffe, 17, told Newsweek in its new issue about girls who want to go out with him simply because he's famous, "but I've got pretty good instincts for people.

"Normally, the people who are not genuine are the ones who say, 'You know I'm not just being your friend because you're Harry Potter, right?' And it's like, 'Uh, fine, but if that's the case, why do you need to say that?' "

The young actor makes a point. It's one he can share with Zach Braff, as well.

Radcliffe, who is shooting the fifth Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, will appear next summer in the London stage revival of the Tony-winning drama, Equus. He'll play a troubled young man obsessed with horses â€" and he'll have a nude scene.

Calm down, Nicky Hilton.

"Part of me wants to shake up people's perception of me, just shove me in a blender," he said. "It's a really challenging play, and if I can pull it off â€" we don't know if I can yet â€" I hope people will stop and think, 'Maybe he can do something other than Harry.' "

Radcliffe began playing Potter at age 11, but doesn't look back at his earlier films.

Ultimately, he said: "I would like to look back at them in 10 or 20 years and possibly cringe a little bit. I wasn't an actor when I was 11, really. I was just a kid having the time of his life."

Lindsay Lohan can certainly relate to that.

You can't spell OC without Mischa Barton. But you can kill off her character. Here, the wispy Barton makes waves in ruffles at a dinner for designer Jenni Kayne at L.A.'s Curve boutique Friday, the closing day of Los Angeles Fashion Week.

Alongside Mischa is her boyfriend, Cisco Adler. Asked why in the world he is dating Mischa Barton, Adler replied that Rachel Bilson is not available. Just kidding. No way that happened. Nevertheless, this picture confirms one of T.H. Gossip's age-old theories:

Mischa Barton is really thin.

Where's little baby Ramona? Hiding behind all those crazy Gyllenhaals! Dad Peter Sarsgaard shielded the 2-week-old under his coat while out and about with fiancée Maggie Gyllenhaal and her mom, Naomi Foner, and her brother, Jake Gyllenhaal, in New York City's West Village on Sunday.

When he's not looking at other women's vaginas, Sarsgaard is content to play dad and hang out with Maggie's fam. When he's not chilling with BFF Lance Armstrong, Jake is content to settle for Peter Sarsgaard.

Charlie Sheen is a busy man.

First, he asked for - and received - a raise raise for Two and a Half Men. Then, he spent time with ex-wife, Denise Richards and current girlfriend, Brooke Mueller.

Most recently, the actor and Mueller showed some love for the gays Sunday night at a fundraiser for Aid For AIDS in Los Angeles. The event is an annual kind of beauty pageant where seven contestants in drag battle it out for the title of "Best In Show 2006."

Sheen was one of several celebrity judges who helped pick the winner. Word is that they also asked Paris Hilton - but she was too drugged up to attend. Just kidding.

Donating nearly four hours of his Sunday night was not the only way that Charlie showed his support, however. He also made a $10,000 donation to the organization.

The $250,000 raised last night goes towards helping people living with HIV and AIDS pay their rent, utilities and buy groceries when they're sick and incapable of working. It's a good cause - and it's nice to see Sheen find his inner Bono.

There's a rumor that Kate Moss is pregnant with her on-again, off-again, druggie rocker boyfriend / fiancee's baby.

Supposedly, Pete Doherty's uncle told Britain's Daily Mirror that Kate is pregnant and he's happy for them. However, the "journalists" at The Mirror do not hesitate to make up quotes and attribute them to people, so this may or may not be the case yet. Or ever. You can never believe those jerks.

After all, there were rumors all over the place that these two were about to get married, but that Pete's many drug busts and stints in rehab (the latest of which was supposedly successful, but probably not) thwarted their plans. They were also said to be trying for a baby, so who the heck knows what PeteMoss is up to. But here's what Pete's uncle says:

Doherty's uncle Phil Michels, who is clearly a complete dick to talk to the Mirror if this story is actually true, claims that the singer called him from Italy, where he is touring with Babyshambles, to share the news.

"I have spoken to Pete twice about the baby and he has confirmed that Kate Moss is pregnant," Phil probably didn't really tell the Sunday Mirror. "They are both delighted and Pete sounded really excited."

"That is why they want to get married. Pete told me they want a baby to cement their marriage. I am made up for them. I wish them every success. They're so happy, they love each other. I can't wait for the wedding. We are just waiting for a date."

Both Moss and Doherty have children from previous relationships. Kate has Lila Grace, 4, from her romance with Jefferson Hack, while Doherty has son Estile, 3, with ex-girlfriend Lisa Moorish.

Poor kids.

Kate was said to have told Pete that he had to quit touring if he wanted to keep her affections, and to have given him a list of six rules to follow if he wanted to marry her. The list was not released, but reportedly includes mandatory dry-humping in public at least twice a week.

The Gossip has received countless emails and requests for Sutton Pierce pictures. We're happy to provide what we've got... but now it is looking like maybe there is no such thing as Sutton Pierce Federline.

Say what now?

Yes, numerous sources are now speculating that Britney Spears and her laid-back, dumbass husband, Kevin Federline, never confirmed their second baby's name to the press -- and that Sutton Pierce may not be its name.

It was reported that Sutton Pierce was given his lame name because his initials would be the same as big brother Sean Preston. Now, some people have been saying that the baby's name is actually Jayden James.

The strongest piece of evidence to support that theory? Kevin's mom calls the baby Jayden. Then again, Kevin Federline's mom was partying with Ron Jeremy in Vegas pretty recently, and didn't do a very good job raising her own son, so her credibility is highly questionable.

Nevertheless, we'll be monitoring this story and knocking on Britney's door all day long until we get some answers dammit.
