Good news for fans of Casey Aldridge and fans of underage, unprotected teen sex everywhere: Jamie Lynn Spears' baby daddy can't be charged with statutory rape.

According to DMV records and family members, Casey Aldridge is only 18 years of age, having been born into this cruel world on April 29, 1989.

The significance of that date? Jamie Lynn Spears was born April 4, 1991, making her less than two years younger than Casey Aldridge.

Dumb as Casey Aldridge might be, no charges will be filed.

Apparently, under Louisiana law, you can bone a minor so long as she's not more than two years younger than you. Casey abided by that law by a whole 25 days! Wooooo!

Even more good news for the happy, teenage father-to-be: With Jamie Lynn Spears pregnant, Casey Aldridge doesn't have to worry about using birth control for the next few months at least! Who's the lucky guy now, eh?

Knowing who Brody Jenner hooked up with at Opera last night or what color baby Uggs Nicole Richie bought for her baby yesterday is oddly comforting.

Useless, yes, but surprisingly compelling.

If Hollywood were high school, then Perez Hilton, TMZ and YouTube would be like the 21st Century equivalent of the writing on the girls' bathroom wall.

But this year was different, as those scribbles graduated to the front page of the school paper. Yes, these outlets of the tawdry, the titillating, and the tabloids have finally broken down the barrier and entered the "legitimate" news world.

In 2007, more than 2,000 news stories were sourced to TMZ. With attention spans dwindling and the appetite for celebrity gossip only growing, blogs like Perez Hilton's are increasingly barking orders at the mainstream media.

Witness the attention placed on â€" to name just one of 2007's top train wrecks â€" Paris Hilton's summer jail term. Helicopters. Up-to-the-minute news alerts. A swarm of reporters. Larry King. In their desperate rush to keep up with all the bloggers like Perez â€" respectable news outlets flushed Ms. Hilton's saga out of the tabloid brush and into the spotlight. It was, by all accounts, a huge story.

  Celebrity gossip is not a new phenomenon. But will our desire to know if Britney Spears ran a red light with Sean Preston and Jayden James in the car flame out?

Or might we suggest that the badly behaved celebrities clean themselves up for the sake of the ever-clicking cameras? Or, heaven forbid, stay inside and order delivery instead of driving drunkenly and wearing no underwear to Popeyes? No, no, no... a cleaner, gentler Hollywood wouldn't be nearly as fun, would it?

Thanks to her new nose, it's difficult to even recognize Ashley Tisdale.

But we're pretty sure that is the High School Musical star below, shimmering in a dress from this year's American Music Awards.

Looking similar to the young singer/actress? One of Hugh Hefner's Girls Next Door, as Holly Madison shows off her assets in a silver sequined dress at a recent holiday party in Los Angeles.

Once you decide if the clothed Playboy Bunny looks better than Tisdale, let us know if Holly Madison nude is more attractive than Carmella DeCesare nude.

After confessing that their engagement is off - at least for the time being - gruesome reality TV twosome Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt hit a Santa Monica ice rink.

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt: Just boyfriend and plastic girlfriend again.

Needless to say, with their constant fighting and differences of opinion, the couple we love to hate on The Hills was skating on thin ice throughout Season Three.

Now they've gone skating in the literal sense. Although our guess is that the ice in that rink is actually quite strong... unlike the humor quotient of this post.

On the set of his new movie, Seventeen, Zac Efron sports a new, wavy hairstyle.

What do you think of it?

Meanwhile, as Ashley Tisdale, Corbin Bleu and any of his High School Musical classmates can attest to, Efron is a joy to work with.

"It's nice coming to work with Zac Efron. He's like the loveliest thing and doing a great job on the movie," Seventeen co-star Michelle Trachtenberg said.

And in bed, Vanessa Hudgens would probably add.

We're not entirely sure what the hell Amy Winehouse is doing in this photo - taken during her recent trip to visit incarcerated husband Blake Fielder-Civil within the confines of his jail cell - but it's one strange pic, don't you think?

Seriously, what's going on here? Is Amy Winehouse wearing pants? Is she trying to get her shoe on? Or off? Is she trying to find a good vein to shoot up in, having ruined all the good ones in her arms? The list of questions is endless.

We give up. Take a look and see if you can figure out what's going on here ...

Amy Winehouse struggles with... something. Well, everything!

While legendary crooner Sting may sing about the "Fields of Gold," it appears as though he and wife Trudie Styler enjoy a Den of Sex.

As the UK's Daily Mail reports, talk of the raunchy private life between Sting (real name Gordon Sumner) and Trudie Styler has included swingers' parties, strip clubs and Tantric sex sessions lasting several hours.

Now, there's tangible evidence of this couple's tastes that make the love making world of Jessica Sierra look tame by comparison...

A peak inside the 56-year-old rock star and his wife's Manhattan apartment reveals a bedroom with unusual Helmut Newton paintings. In one, a woman lays virtually naked, legs spread in the back of a vintage Mercedes as a man leans over from the front seat to unzip one of her spike-heeled boots.

In the other, above the bed, we see the lower half of another female wearing just stockings, suspenders and high heels.

Styler has said she finds these prints to be "hot."

The couple has four children, which equates to the number of times we threw up in our mouths as we published this revealing story.

Trudie Styler and Sting: Middle-aged sex kittens!

Older sister, slow-moving train wreck and aunt-to-be Britney Spears gives an expressionless face to the celebrity news media as she waits at a red light near her home while driving a friend back home in Los Angeles.

Is she upset because for once, pregnant Jamie Lynn is going to have a l'il mistake instead of her? Or is she merely off her medication? Overtired? Who knows.

And who's this friend of Britney's? While there may be a slight Courtenay Semel resemblance, we have no idea who this is. But it's not Sam Lutfi, thankfully.

Britney Spears looks far from pleased ... at life.

Who could have guessed that Jamie Lynn Spears would not be the most shocking celebrity pregnancy of the week?

TMZ has confirmed that former American Idol finalist Jessica Sierra - yes, that same Jessica Sierra with a sex tape and numerous arrests on her record - is pregnant.

Oh, and she's currently in jail with the unborn child.

Was Jessica Sierra pregnant during the filming of her sex tape? If so, she better lose that cigarette!

Sources say the father is a "rapper" and Jessica is ecstatic over the news. Which makes perfect sense. Her time in the spotlight has just been extended by approximately nine months.

Sierra is currently in the Falkenburg Road Jail in Florida on a "pregnancy diet." She's facing two misdemeanor charges of disorderly intoxication and obstructing or opposing an officer; and two felony counts of possession of cocaine and battery.

Meanwhile, here are a couple images from the Jessica Sierra sex tape. Might this be the first time in history that we have an act of conception on video? We think so.

We added 33 new photos to our celebrity pics gallery today. Here's a sampling:
