... if you know what we mean!

Indeed, Gisele Bundchen appears to have gone from a star of the big screen to a star of the pig skin.

The ex-girlfriend of Leonardo DiCaprio has latched on to - at least - the golden arm of New England Patriots quarterback, Tom Brady. She was seen waiting outside the team's locker room after its playoff victory over the Chargers on Sunday.

Brady, of course, recently split with hot actress, Bridget Moynahan.

Often compared with New York Yankees shortstop, Derek Jeter, the quarterback knew he had to nab a new babe in order to compete with Jessica Biel. Gisele does fit that bill.

She had previously been linked with Josh Hartnett, but obviously deserves a much better looking, more famous mate. We hope these two have lots of cute babies together!

Looks like you may have some competition soon, Oprah Winfrey.

The former body guard of Jerry Springer is coming to get you and all other talk show hosts. We'd run and hide if we were you.

After all, we've seen Steve Wilkos in action.

The guy means business. Just read his quote in regard to the new program:

"I really like helping people."

The former Marine and cop, will offer advice and "dole out his own version of justice" on the as-yet-untitled show, distributor NBC Universal Domestic Television Distribution said yesterday.

If it's anything like Anna Nicole Smith justice, the world is in trouble.

Special thanks to Kate S., a devoted Hollywood Gossip reader from the great state of Michigan, for suggesting the newest edition to our ever-evolving collection of Celebrity Look-Alikes.

We have to agree with her on this one. They might not be confused for one another at a party (like, say, that jackass Johnny Knoxville and Josh Duhamel), but a resemblance certainly exists between this pair of blonde beauties:

On the left, that's actress Christine Taylor, wife of Ben Stiller - and a funny actress in her own right, as movies such as Zoolander have shown. Next to her is Lauren Conrad, who we got to know on Laguna Beach, and who has gone on to star in her own reality spin-off, The Hills, which is now in its second season on MTV.

Got a pair of look-alikes (funny or serious) that you'd like to see featured on The Hollywood Gossip? E-MAIL US and let us know. Our standards are really low!

It's no surprise that Posh is an anagram of shop.

Joined by husband Tom Cruise, BFFs Katie Holmes and Victoria Beckham (below, left) reunite for a high-profile dinner date at The Ivy in Los Angeles on Tuesday. Holmes and Posh Spice can look forward to many more fun evenings out: The Beckhams are moving to Los Angeles later in the year, and TomKat is reportedly pushing them to convert to Scientology.

Which brings us to the next picture (above, right), in which Victoria Beckham was seen house hunting and shopping Monday in West Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Thanks to the $250 million deal hubby David Beckham signed with the L.A. Galaxy, we'd say her price range is pretty big. Slightly higher than Kevin Federline's anyway.

We didn't even know Luke Perry was still alive, let alone dating an Oscar-winning actress.

But reports state that the Beverly Hills, 90210 star has been out on the town with Renee Zellweger.

The actress, of course, is known best for three things:

1. Having a scrunchy face
2. Starring in period films
3. Looking like Ellen Pompeo

In the past, Zellweger was married to country star Kenny Chesney, while Perry was linked with Brenda Walsh and Kelly Taylor.

We wonder how Tori Spelling feels about this pairing.

But not in the good way.

Despite having chatted politely during the Golden Globe Awards ceremony earlier this week, the former couple had a run-in later in the night.

Both Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz were present at a party hosted by Prince and the evening started off smoothly enough at the Beverly Wilshire hotel.

According to witnesses, Timberlake was then talking to hottie Jessica Biel when Diaz approached. Jess stepped away - to give them space and fantasize about Derek Jeter, we imagine - as the former flames had a serious exchange.

Diaz walked away, Timberlake followed, and the two were soon spotted engaged in an intense 40-minute face-off in a side room.

Reportedly, JT slammed his fist down after the argument was over. We're not sure why Diaz would be mad Justin was talking to Biel. After all, Scarlett Johansson is the one he's bringing sexy back with.

Where is Jayden James Federline?

That's the question on the minds of T.H. Gossip - and we're clearly not the only ones. Four months after the second son of Britney Spears and Kevin Federline was born, celeb watchers are wondering why no pics of the tyke have been released.

"It's the question we've all been asking," one paparazzi member who asked not to be named told MSN's The Scoop. "There was some really dark footage that was supposed to be of him, but it was horrible and it doesn't really count."

"People are speculating that [Britney Spears] is shielding him from the public because she's hoping to sell exclusive pictures of him, and now, because no one has seen him, the price has gone up."

"It's been pretty well confirmed that the profit from the pictures of the first child [Sean Preston] went to Kevin," says Brandy Navarre, owner of x17OnLine, the well-known celebrity blog and photo agency currently suing fellow celebrity blogger Perez Hilton.

Navarre speculates that Britney (pictured above in full pregnant form with sister Jamie Lynn Spears) hasn't put any Jayden James pictures up for sale for a number of reasons:

"Things were souring between Britney and Kevin around that time, and they couldn't ever come to any agreement about who would get [money from] the pictures."

"Some people are saying that Britney is so busy partying that she's not with her child, but she does take Sean Preston out and she's so open with Sean Preston when it comes to the paparazzi... This is a huge story and some of us have been focused on getting pictures of her partying or with her new boyfriend [Isaac Cohen], but to get a picture of [Jayden James] is the goal we should be focused on."

Although you won't be seeing Britney Spears' face during the Super Bowl halftime show - yes, Brit's image has apparently been tarnished that badly - FedEx is set to star in his own commercial.

Don't worry. He'll be ridiculed. By himself.

Nationwide Insurance has hired Kevin Federline to star in one its ads, set to run during some of the most expensive airtime on TV. Although we're not exactly sure what talent (quote-unquote) K-Fed is going to be showcasing - Kevin will definitely be making fun of himself.

The company's motto, "Life comes at you fast," offers seemingly endless satirical plots as possibilities. Past participants in the ad campaign include fallen pop culture icons such as Fabio and MC Hammer.

With the Britney-Kevin divorce and ensuing custody battle still in the making, it's good to see Federline being self-depricating - as well as being proactive and milking his 15 minutes for all they're worth.

Hey, someone's got to pay for that one-bedroom apartment in the valley. Better to spend his time working than texting that crazy Firecrotch.

Wow, this is getting heavy. Well, relatively speaking, of course. This is The Hills.

At any rate, our golden girls, Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag, are growing up, complete with promotions and big breakups as Season 2 got started Monday night.

Luckily for Lauren - and for the rest of humanity - the new season began by finally dropping Dead Weight. Also known as Jason Wahler. LC took all of his belongings, including the prized golf clubs she gave him for his b-day, and took it over to his place, dumping it (and him) forever.

But lest we think she'd put Jason behind her without incident, there's the fallout at work. Over at Teen Vogue HQ, the mag's West Coast editor, Lisa Love, summoned her perma-interns (Lauren Conrad and her friend, Whitney) to kick LC while she was down:

"That was a good choice of yours to make, to go to Paris," she passive-aggressively remarkted to Whitney. "Lauren didn't go to Paris... How was your summer at the beach with your boyfriend? Did that work out for you?"

Oh, snap.

Heidi Montag, meanwhile, has her own problems â€" namely, avoiding Audrina's calls. It seems Audrina had decided to switch from going on random awkward dates with no relevance to any story lines to going on dates with Heidi's new beau.

The man in question, Spencer, fits right into the Laguna Beach mold for the most popular guys: not all that attractive, clever, or even interesting. But boy, do they play hard to get. When Heidi started asking him about Audrina at dinner, Spencer smoothly deflected her by saying, "This margarita's just too good! I couldn't be happier right now!"

While Heidi and Lauren were reflecting on Spencer, and how their relationship was on the upswing, he was bringing Audrina flowers on their lunch date. And offering to take her to Don Antonio's, where he'd just been with Heidi. And making plans to bring Audrina to a party Heidi was working.

Yeah. This guy's not taking angling for his own show or anything.

Naturally, this did not all go over well with Heidi when it came time for the party. Heidi sort of confronted Spencer about the situation, but she really still seemed to blame most of it on Audrina, weirdly enough. He summed up the tension in the following way:

"We got beef in the streets."

Profound. The Hills premiere then concluded with Heidi perusing shampoo at the pharmacy... oh, and taking a home pregnancy test out of the bag when she returned home. This is coming dangerously close to dealing with an actual serious issue - and we're not sure The Hills can handle it.

Do you like the nicer Heidi? Do you like the meaner Lisa? Will Lauren pick her career back off the mat? Don't you love Whitney? How will they resolve Heidi's situation? Do you think Heidi is pregnant? And has there even been a decent, normal guy on either Laguna Beach or The Hills?

Apparently they're just giving these things away now. Fortunately, at least, that's gotta mean The Hollywood Gossip will receive one soon.

Despite being nothing more than a real estate mogul in a world obsessed with reality TV, Donald Trump received the 2,327th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame yesterday.

He'd probably want to us to mention that Rosie O'Donnell doesn't have one yet.

Surrounded by family and friends, The Donald thanked the crowd and opined about his experience on The Apprentice, saying, "It really has been a special moment in my life."

Firing people always is, Don. You'd know after your unceremonious dumping of Katie Rees.

Mark Burnett, creator of The Apprentice, had some words about his good friend that danced around the feud with Rosie.

"There's two things to know about Donald," Burnett said. "If you're his friend, he'll go to war for you. But never become his enemy. You never want to become this man's enemy because he'll get you."

But will he call you a "fairy," like Melissa Joan Hart will?
