Naomi Watts, 40, and her partner, the actor Liev Schreiber, 41, welcomed their second child in New York on Saturday. They have yet to release a name for the little brother to 17-month-old Alexander Pete Schreiber.

President George Bush had shoes thrown at him during a press conference in Baghdad yesterday. An Iraqi journalist whipped not one but BOTH of his shoes at the president after calling him a "dog." Bahahahahaha! I saw a video clip and both my husband and I thought it was hilarious.

This is an interesting little picture that Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt have painted for us. The two graciously posed up for some pictures with Santa Claus while they were out shopping on Robertson yesterday. What were they shopping for you might ask? Baby clothes! Let's hope this is a gift for a friend and not an investment in their future.

Cameron Diaz says she's a big fan of "Shrek the Musical" but has no desire to star in it. I don't blame her.

Who needs hot Hollywood clubs? Taylor Swift's birthday bash Saturday was a low-key, homemade affair.

The star celebrated her 19th surrounded by family and friends - including all the members of her band - at her home in Hendersonville, Tennessee.

Two ice cream cakes (one chocolate peppermint, one cookie dough) came from Cold Stone Creamery.

Britney Spears is celebrating her 27th birthday with a performance at Good Morning America. She will perform the title track from her latest album Circus which releases today.

Britney has also announced the dates for her 2009 world tour. Looks like it will kick off in New Orleans this March with the Pussycat Dolls as an opening act.

Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Pratt! The controversial and non-legally bound newlyweds Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt returned to LA from their wedding and honeymoon in Cabo. Of course, after the two eloped, MTV was there to catch the aftermath. Spencer assured us that they would be getting legally married upon their return, but we'll see.

Lindsay Lohan's hitting a slump?

ABC dramedy Ugly Betty cut from six episodes to four. And, in fact, E! reports that Lohan will also be cut out of the episodes she's already filmed, as "she was not so interested in creating a character." But this was right after she left rehab and I feel she is more on her game now. While I would never condone her past behavior, I do think she is a great actress. She just doesn't always get great roles.

To make matters worse for LiLo she is being sued. The actress is being sued by the three men who were in the SUV she drove during a 2007 car chase that resulted in her subsequent DUI arrest, People reports. Yes, I know, it is her fault but man when it rains it pours.

*~*~*

Angelina Jolie's recent interview in the Italian version of Vanity Fair gave a tidbit of insight on her views about marriage.

"Usually people fall in love and everything revolves around the ritual of marriage, children are an afterthought. We did everything backwards . . . But sooner or later it will be the kids who ask us [to get married]. You know, they see films and start asking questions. Such as, 'Why are Shrek and Fiona married and you're not?' "

I think it's cute her kids compare their parents to Shrek and Fiona. I think it says a lot about the couple; a good lot at that.

*~*~*

Further proof that Heidi Montag is an idiot looking for attention...

She was recently photographed wearing a pink tank top which said "Read my lipstick, Vote McCain-Palin." And her other half was wearing a shirt the same time which read "God, Guns, Glory." Oh someone gag them both and spray paint their clothing.

They are constantly seen craving media attention, making up scenarios to get said media attention and practically mauling each other in public. Talk about walking contradictions.

*~*~*

Britney Spears' traffic case that ended in a mistrial is being trumpeted by her lawyer Michael Flanagan as a monumental triumph of the human spirit, according to People:

"It marks a turnaround for her. This case was a thorn in her side for more than a year, a reminder of the bad old days," he said. "She's thrilled the court system, for once, worked in her favor."

Go Britters!

Madonna and Guy Ritchie's eight year old son Rocco was spotted at the Chelsea Pier Gym in NYC this week wearing a New York Yankees t-shirt. As you’re probably aware, Madonna and Guy’s marriage reportedly ended because of her relationship with Yankees third baseman, Alex Rodriguez.

Ouch!

But this is not Rocco's fault. This is Madonna getting in another ugly dig.

On the set of Saturday Night Live, it emerged Sarah Palin did not know who Oliver Stone was. You know, given the Republican vice presidential nominee's past dabbling in Alaskan separatism, JFK might just change her life.

Katherine Heigl and her main squeeze, her dog Romeo, were on hand last night for the opening of Australian designer Peter Alexander's flagship store in Beverly Hills last night.

Katherine was joined by the lovely Mandy Moore, PETA spokeswoman Alicia Silverstone, Kristin Cavallari and of course the designer himself who unveiled a line of charity pajamas inspired by Romeo.

The event benefited animal rescue shelters Hearts United for Rescue and Kinder4Rescue.

According to Star Magazine, Benji Madden snuck around with other broads while girlfriend Paris Hilton worked on her reality show in the UK.

This isn't the first time Paris has caught Benji straying. According to a source, he also cheated on her with a groupie earlier in the month. When Paris found out, she was devastated. "She's miserable and constantly sobbing about his infidelity," says the source.

Benji and Paris have dated for around eight months, and she’s been accused of hooking up with other dudes during that time as well, so I guess all is fair. Maybe she'll end up staying in London with her new BFF.

Alright, I didn't mind their love fest on Valentine's Day, but when a celebrity couple decides they are worthy of a video game I have to roll my eyes.

Recently, Spencer Pratt told Us magazine that they're actually "developing the Heidi and Spencer video game" with EA. "You can definitely play as us or you can play against us," Pratt said. "You can even torture me."

He went on to say that there will be two versions - one for adults and one for minors - and that it will become available Christmas 2009. Makes you wonder when they feel they need two versions...I don't understand why they even need one!

I expect to see many a screen capture of people torturing Pratt if this video game ever really does make it to store shelves.

This entire idea seems like a huge joke to me. I think someone at EA is just f*ckin' with them. Now THAT would be funny!

Don't you want to know who did what on Valentine's Day?

Heidi Montag spent the day on a yacht with her boyfriend Spencer Pratt; complete with roses, champagne, and chocolate-dipped strawberries. (My husband did way better with red wine, perogis and chocolate covered not dipped strawberries).

Sarah Jessica Parker spent her Valentine's Day braving the recently colder NYC weather with her smaller favorite man. As much as I agree with making sure your child isn't cold, I just don't think I could ever shove my kid into a bag which is essentially what she did. Note the plastic in the picture.

Spice Girl Victoria Beckham spent her Valentine's Day with one of the other men in her life, her young son Cruz, while her husband David was taking care of their other two kids in LA. Odd?

Lily Allen spent 16 hours partying at the Vivienne Westwood fashion show, the Mulberry party and stumbling out of Punk nightclub early this morning, amongst some of the highlights.

Love birds Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova took their speed boat out for a cruise around Biscayne Bay.

Oasis bad boy Liam Ghallagher and All Saints good girl Nicole Appleton tied the knot in a secret ceremony in London on Valentine's Day.
