Mischa Barton has a job! She's been cast in a CW show produced by Ashton Kutcher.

"[I play] a bitchy model-type character, like it's a totally different character for me."The Hollywood Reporter says that Barton will star in the pilot episode for the planned series 'A Beautiful Life'.
It follows the lives of a group of male and female supermodels who share a home in New York.

She explains, "We shoot nine months out of the year, so there are so many films I can't do.
"On my latest movie I would go and take a day off from Gossip Girl in New York and go to Connecticut and shoot that and then come back the next day. And they don't really like to share you."

Keira Knightley has turned down the chance to reprise her role in a fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie, insisting she's "done" with the franchise.

A fourth movie is in the works, with Johnny Depp already onboard to play Captain Jack Sparrow one more time. But Knightley is keen to move on from the role.
"It was a completely fantastic experience, and it was an amazingly large portion of my life, but I don't think I need to go there again. I think that it's done. But I'm very excited to see the next one. And he (Depp) is so wonderful in that character. I think it'll be wonderful.

The sequel will have Jon Favreau back to direct, and both Downey and Gwyneth Paltrow (Pepper Potts) are expected to return and reprise their roles, says the paper.

The way she fawns over her precious dog, you'd think Paris Hilton liked animals. Apparently though she had adopted a kitten only to neglect it.The Kris Kelly Foundation rescued poor kitty Prada, from the vet after Paris abandoned it when she took Prada in to be neutered. Kris Kelly herself called Hilton to come get the cat, but says her calls went ignored. Kelly says: "It's a clear-cut case of abandonment."
Paris' reps have been quoted saying she thought the kitty would be delivered home from the vet, like a pizza. The kitten was at the vet for THREE WEEKS. Poor Prada. =o(
