In case you just arrived home from Mars and missed the announcement, Michael Jackson has been cleared of all charges against him. His fans could not have been more thrilled:


I, for one, could not get enough of the Dove Lady ... she was a hoot. In the end, the jurors decided that the evidence was not strong enough to convict Michael Jackson. The jurors laid much of the blame on the victim's mother. Hmm ... we have no choice but to accept the final verdict, rehashing it will change nothing, but I do lament that Michael Jackson may not learn from this and may not change his behavior.

Anyways ... let's move on ... Nicole Kidman was quite a sight at the Bewitched premiere last night:


Her hair looked lovely, but I'm not sure about the accessories. I suppose she was going for a Greek Princess look? I dunno, did she pull this look off?

Personally, I think Hilary Duff looked amazing at the premiere of her new movie A Perfect Man:


The look was simple and clean. I'm lukewarm on the dress ... I don't think it flatters her figure enough. It looks funny at the waist. She looked pretty nonetheless.

Here is a first look at the new ads that Hilary is doing for Candie's:


She is, after all, the new face of Candie's.

Check out the t-shirt that Joel Madden is wearing:


Ha ha! Loves it!!

Well, well, well ... it seems that the cat is really out of the bag ... Kirsten Dunst and Jake Gyllenhaal are busted:


It seems that they are just as close as ever ... Rumor has it that they staged their breakup to keep the media attention off their relationship. They are an awesome couple, I'm just glad they are together again.

Check out the new Lauryn Hill:


It is easy to see where she got the inspiration for her new look.

Does Pink do anything other than make out with ugly girls and give people the middle finger?


I suppose it's better than having her make more music. Yikes.

Paris² did some shopping recently at Fred Segal:


See, this is a couple that look good together. They both have wealth (that neither of them earned) and they both have fame (that stems from no legitimate source) ... they are a perfect match. I can't wait for the wedding!

We know that Katie Holmes can take a pretty damn good picture, but she doesn't always take a pretty damn good picture ... check out her photos for the new issue of Esquire magazine:


The cover picture is horrible! I like the last 2 pictures (her legs look longer than Tom Cruise looks tall) but I think she should stay away from the short hair, permed/crimped-esque look. Crimping is never a good idea ... well, unless you use the right crimper.

Chris Knight (ex-Peter Brady) and Adrienne Curry (ex-America's Next Top Model), who met and fell in love on The Surreal Life, are still together ... and look, Chris is even pimping out Adrienne to make a little money ... or something like that:


I'm not exactly sure how Willa Ford factors into this whole thing. Adding a tub of baby oil might be called for.

Here are some screencaps from David Boreanaz's new TV show Bones:


Er ... yeah. So far it looks a little cheesey ... but I'm not making any judgments yet. We'll have to see how the show turns out when it debuts this fall.

Have you ever wished that you could eat a lifesize Elton John made out of chocolate? Well ... then you're a very weird person ... but you'd be in luck because Madam Tussauds has unveiled a chocolate statue of Elton John created by Cadbury Chocolatiers:


David Furnish, Elton John's fiancee, was on hand for the statue's unveiling. I don't know quite what to say.

Did you know that Coral I-Don't-Wrestle-I-Beat-Bitches-Up Smith from The Real World and numerous RW/RR Challenges is on My Space?


She's got some great pictures on her profile. She is really proud of her assets. Damn, I'm pretty proud of them myself.

And finally, it seems that the mystery friend that has been seen with Lindsay Lohan recently is not Michael Levine (the younger brother of Maroon 5's Adam Levine) as was previously reported. Apparently, the mystery friend is actually Patrick Aufdenkamp:


You can check out his My Space profile HERE. The pictures on the profile are of the same dude who has been photographed with L. Lo -- the hair is unmistakable. Patrick contacted me via My Space and confirmed that he is the guy in the L. Lo photographs. I messaged him back with some questions but he has yet to respond.

Of course this could be a huge ruse but I tend to believe him. More on this when/if it develops.

Let's do the news:

• Happy International Webloggers Day!
• People magazine reported yesterday that Alicia Silverstone got married in Lake Tahoe on Saturday. Perez Hilton reported this news early Sunday morning.
• Kylie Minogue thanks her fans for their support.
• Nine Inch Nails and Queens of the Stone Age hit the road this fall. They come to Detroit on October 8th.
• "I'll embrace Scientology" -- Guess who.
• Oh No! Say it ain't so!!
• Put a fork in him, Mike Tyson's career is DONE. Well, what do you expect from a "boxer" who keeps biting his opponents?
• Usher <3s David Beckham.
• An iPod commercial come to life.
• Demi Moore to get nekkid on the cover of Vanity Fair again.
• Hugh Jackman to control his Wolverine spin-off movie.
• Alanis Morissette finally gets over it.
• Torture doesn't begin to describe it.

I will be tied up all day with work stuff today. It's the last day that I will have to "do" anything. It will be nice once everything is finished and the summer can officially begin.

I am toying with the idea of seeing Batman Begins tonight at midnight (despite the nightmares I might endure). The only snag is that I have a 9 AM meeting tomorrow followed by an appointment to have my tires replaced. I think I'm going to swing it tho. When the first Batman movie came out in 1989 I was able to see it at a midnight showing ... I think I'd like to do that again. I'll be sure to let you know.

I'm out.
