February 2009 Gossip Archive (Page 9)

The lovely Freida Pinto burst on the Hollywood scene this year in Slumdog Millionaire, which pretty much dominated the entire Academy Awards last night.

Miley Cyrus, meanwhile, was at the gala to promote her film Hannah Montana and the Topless Vanity Fair Photo Chronicles. Just kidding. But give it time.

The burning question on our minds: which of these lovely ladies' Oscar fashion statements do you like more? Tell us in the informal poll below ...

One of the hunks below stars in Twilight and has perfected the art of making bedhead appear trendy. The other is ... why was Mario Lopez even there?

Whatever the reason, when Robert Pattinson and Mario Lopez square off in a fashion clash, you can't really go wrong. But still, come on, pick one.

Who looked better at the 2009 Academy Awards, Rob in his bow tie or Mario with his traditional one? Tell us in the little informal survey below ...

Who looked better at the Oscars?

Kate Winslet took home the Best Actress honor at the Oscars last night, and her stunning dress may leave her among the Academy Awards fashion winners as well.

As for Sarah Jessica Parker?

She was practically falling out of her dress. That is not without merit, but we expected something trendier from a star whose claim to fame is Sex and the City.

Which star's outfit do you prefer?

Who looked better at the Oscars?

Heath Ledger won a posthumous Academy Award For Best Supporting Actor in what was a bittersweet moment for his family and those who knew him.

Kate Winslet and Sean Penn took home the top acting honors at the Oscars, respectively, while Slumdog Millionaire won pretty much everything else.

There were plenty of other honors (and Academy Awards fashion hits and misses) marking one of the biggest nights in all of entertainment.

Follow the jump to read the full list of winners ...

Former Sex and the City (and unwilling amateur sex photo star) Kristin Davis turns a staggering 46 today. Yeah. Suffice it to say, she looks pretty unreal.

Here's hoping Kristin - who was totally our favorite on the HBO show we said we only watched because our significant others made us - a special day.

The Internets are buzzing over The Bachelor spoilers from a blogger who seems to be at least somewhat in the know, and who adamantly claims the ABC reality hit's producers rigged this entire season - right from the beginning.

In this Bachelor spoiler bombshell is to be believed, single dad Jason Mesnick picks Melissa Rycroft on the March 2 finale, but after the proposal to the former NFL cheerleader, he secretly continues to date runner-up Molly Malaney.

The "shocking" details will supposedly be revealed at the "After the Final Rose" special airing immediately after the season finale, with a second "After The Final Rose, Part 2" special now on tap to air the next night, March 3.

An ABC rep would not confirm these rumors, except to say that the finale has been taped, and that both "After The Rose" specials are still in production.

But The Bachelor host Chris Harrison said at the end of last Monday's episode that the developments were so shocking, producers kept the cameras rolling.

So does Molly Malaney really end up with Jason Mesnick, or is this prescient blogger just making stuff up to get hits on his site (it's working if so)?

For whatever it's worth, a writer from her hometown Grand Rapids Press says The Bachelor conspiracy theory posited by "Reality Steve" makes sense in part.

"I think this might actually have something to it, because this theory, that Jason chooses Melissa, only to change his mind and later choose Molly, actually lines up with what my sources have been saying," opines Lorilee Craker.

"Three sources who know [Molly Malaney] and have stayed in touch with her since the show started have said she probably doesn't win, from what they can gather, but that she has told them all the experience was 'life changing.'"

"I also think the fact that there is a second 'After the Rose' special is odd, and also seems to give a more weight to this theory. I've also heard that Molly has been making trips to L.A. 'for work,' which would corroborate this as well."

The Bachelor producers don't lie about it, but they conveniently forget to mention that its hunky, fan-favorite star, Jason Mesnick, is divorced.

Since his 2006 split from Hilary Buckholz-Monrean (formerly Hilary Mesnick), Jason has raised their three-year-old son, Ty, as a single father.

Little is known about the ex-Mrs. Jason Mesnick, but she apparently was in a music video for Seattle rock band Out From Underneath in summer 2007.

The strange thing? One scene shows Hilary taking off a wedding ring and hurling it at her love interest. It lands on a bed of red rose petals.

Will you accept this rose? STEP OFF!

Talk about art imitating life ... or at least whatever you consider The Bachelor to be. Check out Hilary in the music video below ...

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden are expecting another child, barely one year after the arrival of adorable daughter Harlow Madden (born January 11, 2008).

In a message on the official site of his band Good Charlotte, Madden said:

"I am so happy to tell everyone that Harlow is going to be a big sister! God has truly blessed my family. Hope [you're] all feeling as good as I am right now."

Madden's message is titled "Better than winning an OSCAR!" Hard to argue with him after seeing those adorable Harlow pictures from the other day!

After a famously wild childhood, Nicole Richie has credited the birth of daughter Harlow for leading her to a more tranquil life at home with Joel.

"She gives life a whole new meaning," the 27-year-old said of her baby girl.

Congratulations to the happy couple! Click to enlarge more photos:

Part of our staff adamantly maintains that John Mayer is a douchebag.

Well, the video below seems to confirm this revelation - although we have to give the singer his due for being funny and self-depricating.

John Mayer paid his respects to Conan O'Brien on the final night of his Late Night show Friday with a brief, taped and moving musical tribute.

Mayer's song, called "L.A.'s Gonna Eat You Alive," offered his thoughts on O'Brien's impending move to the Tonight Show, which films in L.A.

The best lyric? "Look at me, I used to live in NYC. Now I'm as douchey as a man can be." So true. At the end, Mayer said: "Good luck, loser."

Peep the video below ...

Jennifer Love Hewitt has come a long way since her days on Party of Five.

The cute actress - known on that Fox drama as Bailey Salinger's loyal, busty girlfriend Sarah - now stars on a CBS drama as a loyal, busty communicator with the dead.

But whispering with ghosts isn't all this beauty has been up to for the last couple years.

She battled the media over some unflattering photos; she ended her engagement to Ross McCall; and she continues to flaunt two of the most perfect boobs in the business.

In honor of this actress turning 30 today, we present one of the most beautiful photos ever taken of a celebrity, along with a series of other adorable shots:
