* Ellen Degeneres spoofed Sofia Vergara's Emmys wardrobe malfunction on her show yesterday: "I am easy breezy beautiful CoverGirl from Colombia. Happy Halloween. As you can see, I put my pumpkins out," Ellen said, affecting Vergara's accent. "I get so much work with this fake accent," she added. 

Is Taylor dating Ed Sheeran?

The Mirror is reporting: "Days after Taylor Swift splits from her boyfriend and gushes about Ed Sheeran, the Brit singer-songwriter announces the pair will team up on tour and gets a Taylor Swift tattoo on his arm. [One which will Never, Ever be removed].

"With the pair regularly messaging each other, I’m told single Ed and single Taylor are euphemistically getting “increasingly close”.

Kelsey explains why his baby went to a Playboy party

Kelsey Grammer reckons he and wife Kayte Grammer had a very good reason for taking their three-month-old baby to a Playboy Mansion party.

"Kayte is breast-feeding and we do not have a nanny or a trusted baby-sitter at this time, so Faith goes everywhere with us," the actor said in a statement to USA Today. "We enjoyed the party with a few of our friends, the baby slept as her ears were covered the entire time and we left shortly after midnight."

Tom Cruise not pressing charges against Aussie intruder

Jason Sullivan and Laura Csortan in Los Angeles

                                                                                           
Tom Cruise isn't pressing charges against Aussie model/interior designer/reality star Jason Sullivan for accidentally trespassing on his property. Isn't that big of him?

TMZ says: "We're told Jason came home drunk last night, mistook Tom's property for Kevin's and began to enter the grounds. Tom's security told Jason to leave, but instead he tried scaling the privacy wall to get further into Tom's property. Jason began walking toward Tom's house and was warned he would be tased if he continued. When Jason kept walking, he was tased twice.

"Jason was arrested, cited for misdemeanor trespassing and released.

"Tom's lawyer, Bert Fields, tells TMZ, "Tom's not a vindictive guy," adding, "The guy was drunk. He didn't have a malicious intent."

The Australian reports: "Via his Aussie rep Sharon Finnigan, Sullivan - who is nursing several burns on his back as a result of the tasering - said: "The events of yesterday were unfortunate and it was an honest mistake."

I still reckon it was a bit rich to taser the poor bloke. I can't quite believe security guards are allowed to wander around with tasers in the US. That's scary.

Octomom in rehab

Nadya Suleman - better known as Octomom - has checked herself into rehab for a prescription drug problem.
TMZ says: "A rep for Octomom tells us ... Nadya admitted herself into the Chapman House Drug Rehabilitation Center in Southern California over the weekend after acknowledging she's become dependent on Xanax ... an anti-anxiety drug ... which she began taking to "deal with stress."

Suleman's rep tells us, "Nadya wanted to get off the Xanax she was prescribed by her doctor and learn to deal with her stress, exhaustion and anxiety with professional help with a team of doctors. Nadya wanted to deal with her issues and make sure she is the best mother she can be.”

As for the kids ... we're told Nadya is using 3 nannies and 2 friends to divvy up the child care duties. She also has a driver to take the kids to and from school.

We're told Nadya can afford to pay for treatment by herself -- because she's been making a ton of money from her porn career -- but the rehab facility offered to pick up the tab anyway.

Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood is engaged!

He's 65 and she's a gorgeous 34-year-old theatre producer called Sally Humphreys ... Funny how those details rarely reverse.

Ronnie's stepson, Jamie told the Daily Mail in June: "She's a lovely girl and she's no groupie - I can assure you of that. She's a nice girl and we've known her for years. She's been a friend of dad's for a long time, but she always had a boyfriend, which I think held him back. But now the boyfriend's gone, they're free to be with each other."

"She's not his type, that's the unusual thing. Sally's definitely not one of the bimbos he usually goes for," Jamie added.

Aussie celeb tasered at Tom Cruise's mansion

Jason Sullivan, star of the Channel 9 decorating show homeMADE and a former international model, has been revealed as the intruder who was tasered by security guards - and subsequently hospitalised - at Tom Cruise's mansion yesterday. 

Friends of Jason's told TMZ: "Jason was out partying late with friends Sunday night ... and knew he was too drunk to drive home, so he responsibly got a ride from a sober friend.

"We're told the friend dropped Jason off near the Bev Hills home where Sullivan has been living ... but in the moments after he exited the car, the drunk Australian interior decorator became confused ... and tried to enter an adjacent home ... which happens to belong to Tom Cruise.

"As we previously reported, cops were called by someone reporting an intruder at Tom's home ... and when they arrived to the scene, security guards had already tased Sullivan and then he was arrested for trespassing.

"Sources say ... Jason sustained some pretty gnarly injuries from the taser on his back - and is sporting some nasty bruises."

What I'm - and everyone else - not quite understanding is why Tom's security guards felt it was necessary to taser an intoxicated male model and give him "gnarly injuries". Seems a bit over the top, don't you reckon?

Lindsay's a twit

Lindsay Lohan is copping it for this tweet, above, that she sent about Hurricane Sandy.

Dlisted says: "Hundreds of thousands of people have been told to evacuate, an 11-foot wall of water is supposed to crash into Manhattan and millions of people are furiously searching the Internet while they still can for ways to make a satellite dish and TV out of tin foil and fish bones (because they can't missAmerican Horror Story on Wednesday night, DUH), but Lindsay Lohan wants everyone to stop bitching and crying about Hurricane Sally Jessy Raphael. (Don't hate Blohan for not remembering Sandy's name. You know how bad crackheads are at remembering anything.)"
Payback time for Justin

Lainey Gossip reckons it was no co-incidence that there was a story on Britney Spears in the top right-hand corner of last week's People magazine featuring Justin Timberlake's wedding.

She says: "It’s not like everyone in the magazine business wasn’t talking about it -- and wondering why. Please. Please don’t attribute it to accident or coincidence. Those kinds of oversights just don’t happen in the world of celebrity ass-kissing. They had to have had a reason...

"And word around magazine circles is that PEOPLE was not happy with the quality of the pictures that JT sent over. Rumour has it the lighting was sh-t, they had little to work with, and, considering what they paid, they were disappointed with what they were sent ...which is typical Justin Timberlake, isn’t it?

"You will take what you get. You will be happy with what I give you. Because I’m Justin Timberlake. You should just be grateful I picked you.

"Well, perhaps not as grateful as he expected. Because PEOPLE (PEOPLE! of all people! can you imagine what an intolerable dick he must be if PEOPLE decided to f-ck him over in return?) made sure that he shared his special day with Pinky."

Kelsey Grammar takes his baby to Playboy party

And I'm not talking his latest bit of fluff.

TMZ reports: "You're never too young to party in Hollywood ... so says Kelsey Grammer, who took his 3-month-old baby to the Playboy Mansion for a Halloween bash and partied 'til the wee hours of the morning.

'A party-goer tells us ... Kelsey was whooping it up at a table next to Paris Hilton just after midnight. Baby Faith was tucked into her bassinet as the music blared.

'A Playboy Playmate with curious maternal instincts tweeted, "Why the fk does Kelsey Grammer have a newborn baby at the Mansion party!?!?!?"

'We called Kelsey's rep, so far no comment."

Is this PapaJoe Simpson's toyboy?

Em, I think those rumours about Jessica Simpson's dad, PapaJoe, might be on the money. TMZ has photos of him with an entertaining new haircut and lemon jumper. Click here to take a look, then I'll explain the Twitter screen grab above ...

Oh-kay, see where I'm coming from ...? 

Here's what Dlisted has to say: "The [National] Enquirer's source said that Papa Joe was slapping nuts with a 20-something boy toy and Radar thinks they know who it is. 

"Radar says that 21-year-old "aspiring model" Bryce Chandler Hill has been bragging to the gays in West Hollywood ... ONTD might've found some proof in this little flirty exchange on Twitter been BC and PJ last July ... Radar's source says that Bryce met 54-year-old Papa Joe through TJ Espinoza, a back-up dancer and one of Jessica and Ashlee's friends.

"The source put it like this:

“Joe Simpson being outed by the National Enquirer was no surprise to the gay community in Hollywood, Bryce has been bragging about hooking up with Joe for a while now. Bryce is close to TJ Espinoza, who in turn is good friends with both Jessica and Ashlee and worked for Britney Spears as a back-up dancer. TJ introduced Bryce to the Simpsons – and that’s how he met Joe.
Bryce claims he’s been dating Joe for roughly a year and absolutely loves to boast about it because he loves being the center of attention. He’s also been quick to tell anyone that will listen that he’s using Joe to climb the showbiz ladder. Bryce is desperate to become famous, he’s done lots of modeling shoots and wants to become an actor. When he met Joe, he knew what a good job he had done in managing Jessica and Ashlee’s careers and wanted a piece of the pie himself. But the sad thing is, he mocks and laughs at Joe behind his back. He doesn’t care for him in the same way Joe does about him."

"Bryce said on Twitter that this story is made of lies.

"I feel sorry for Papa Joe because he's obviously trying to twinkify himself. Have you seen those tragic pictures at TMZ? Dude looks like Gary Busey as Ellen DeGeneres."

Prediction: this gossip story is only going to get better. Stay tuned ...

Justin says sorry

I think I've been reading Lainey Gossip for too long. Her distaste for Justin Timberlake is rubbing off on me. I'm having trouble accepting the apology he posted on his website for his distasteful homeless people wedding video. Here's an excerpt of what he had to say at justintimberlake.com:

"This silly, unsavory video ... was made as a joke and not in any way in mockery:

1. I had no knowledge of its existence. I had absolutely ZERO contribution to it.
2. My friends are good people. This was clearly a lapse in judgment which I'm sure no one who is reading this is exempt from. But, I don't believe it was made to be insensitive. More so, I think it was made as a joke on me not having that many friends attending my own wedding (which IS kind of funny if you think about it).
3. Like many silly rumors that I have been made aware of about the week: It was NOT shown at my wedding.
4. I think we can all agree that it was distasteful, even though that was not its intention.

Once again, in the world that we live in where everyone thinks that they know everything, I want to be very clear... I am NOT defending the video. I agree with the overall consensus. But, to use another "pants" analogy... It seems that these days, misconception gets around the world before the actual truth even wakes up and gets its pants on.
I want to say that, on behalf of my friends, family, and associative knuckleheads, I am deeply sorry to anyone who was offended by the video. Again, it was something that I was not made aware of. But, I do understand the reaction and, by association, I am holding myself accountable."

PS Jessica Biel has revealed to People magazine that she's changing her name to Jessica Timberlake: "Yes, I'm changing my name. My professional name will still be the same, but for life, yes, I think it sounds great. I think I really won the jackpot of names."

Facebook kills Morgan Freeman

I was shocked and saddened to read on Facebook over the weekend that Morgan Freeman was dead ... except he wasn't ...

Morgan fell victim to a celebrity death hoax after a page on the social networking site was created. Morgan Freeman's Facebook death page immediately gained more than 60,000 followers after it announced that the 75-year old actor had passed away.

Morgan's rep said: "Morgan is alive and well, and joins the long list of actors who have been victimized by this hoax. He's still alive and well, stop believing what you see on the Internet."

Casper responded: "Happy 1 yr. anniversary to the most Gorgeous, Kind, Sweet, Funny, Beautiful Lil Bear in the world.... Love Bear #October25"

Justin Timberlake's wedding scandal

TMZ tracked down one of the homeless people who appeared in the tasteless video shown at Justin Timberlake's wedding (it was called "Greetings from your Hollywood friends who just couldn't make it" and featured homeless people in L.A congratulating the happy couple. Very. Poor. Taste). 

The guy, called Eddie, reckons he was paid $40 to appear in the video and had no idea it was a joke to be played at a celebrity's wedding. 

When we told him how the footage was used, Eddie said: "That makes me feel really bad ... that was a trick played on me."

The video was made by Justin's real estate buddy Justin Huchel, who has threatened to sue Gawker for featuring the video on its site, claiming it was shot as "a private joke" without Timberlake's knowledge ... and demanding it be taken off the web ASAP.

In other Justin dissing, Lainey Gossip says: "PEOPLE released an alternate cover for his big pink wedding. At least this time his wife was allowed to stand up in the photo. Britney, however, is still prominently positioned in the corner. Obviously JT doesn’t like this one as much. You can only see half his face, his eyes are closed, and his nose looks smushed from the kissing."

Taylor won't be a Kennedy after all

Taylor Swift has broken up with her toyboy, Conor Kennedy.  

US Weekly says: "They quietly parted ways a while ago," the friend explains of the "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" crooner, 22, and the high school senior, 18. "It was just a distance thing. No hard feelings. They're fine."

"It's been over a month since they've even seen each other," the friend explains. "With her promotion for Red, she has no time off until the end of the year."

Or maybe he got suss after she snogged his cousin Patrick at that party ...

But Taylor still plans to buy a house near the Kennedy compound. According to TMZ: A source connected with the real estate transaction tells us, the deal for the $4.5 million Hyannis Port home is still going full steam ahead ... and is currently scheduled to close in two weeks.

Matthew Fox like you've never seen him before 

Matthew Fox has revealed he lost 20kg for his role as a serial killer in upcoming thriller Alex Cross.

He told Men's Health magazine: "I never watch my films while we’re making them, so when the images came out on the internet, someone sent it to me. I opened it up and was like ‘holy s**t’. I could hardly even believe it was me. But, it was exactly what I wanted to look like."

"I read somewhere that when Christian Bale was preparing for The Machinist he ate nothing but an apple a day for months. Just one apple. That can’t be good for you."

Matthew's diet consisted mainly of chicken breast, steamed broccoli and protein shakes made with water.

Tom's flawed legal battle

Remember the quote from Tom Cruise's lawyer yesterday about why he's suing In Touch and Life & Style magazines over their abandoned Suri stories? 

"These serial defamers are foreign-owned companies with their global headquarters in Hamburg," he says of the publisher. "They take money from unsuspecting Americans by selling their malicious garbage. Having to pay a libel judgment may slow them down. Tom will undoubtedly give the money to charity. He always has."

Lainey Gossip says: "Fine. But that doesn’t change the fact that he hasn’t seen his kid in three months. I mean, if this is an attempt stop people from thinking he’s abandoned his child, is throwing a legal hissy fit the best way to demonstrate that you didn’t abandon your child? I can come up with a much simpler solution that’s not such a pain in the ass."

Good point!

Tom Cruise sues over "abandoned by daddy" stories

Tom Cruise has filed a $50 million lawsuit against Life & Style and In Touch magazines, claiming they defamed him by reporting he'd abandoned 6-year-old Suri. 

According to TMZ: "In the lawsuit, filed in L.A. federal court, Tom takes issue with the July 30th cover of Life & Style, which reads, "SURI IN TEARS, ABANDONED BY HER DAD" -- as well as the October 1st cover of In Touch, which shows a picture of Suri above the headline, "ABANDONED BY DADDY." 

"According to the suit, Tom claims the mags' headlines are FALSE -- insisting, he "loves his daughter dearly and would never abandon her."

"Tom is suing for $50 million plus punitive damages for defamation and invasion of privacy."

Tom's lawyer, Bert Fields says: "Tom is a caring father who dearly loves Suri.  She's a vital part of his life and always will be.  To say he has 'abandoned' her is a vicious lie.  To say it in lurid headlines with a tearful picture of Suri is reprehensible." Fields goes on:  "Tom doesn't go around suing people.  He's not a litigious guy.  But when these sleaze peddlers try to make money with disgusting lies about his relationship with his child, you bet he's going to sue." Fields goes on to bash the mags, saying, "These serial defamers are foreign owned companies with their global headquarters in Hamburg.  They take money from unsuspecting Americans by selling their malicious garbage.   Having to pay a libel judgment may slow them down."

Eyes Wide Shut was based on Tom & Nicole's marriage

Meanwhile, Nicole Kidman has told The Hollywood Reporter that director Stanley Kubrick tried to base the sexual thriller about a troubled married couple on her real-life relationship with Tom Cruise.

She writes: "People thought that making the film was the beginning of the end of my marriage — but I don't really think it was.

"Tom and I were close then, and it was very much the three of us."

Explaining how Kubrick tried to base the characters, Alice and Bill Harford, on her marriage to Cruise, she explained: "Onscreen, the husband and wife are at odds, and Stanley wanted to use our marriage as a supposed reality. 

"That was Stanley: He used the movie as provocation, pretending it was our sex life. Which we weren't oblivious to, but obviously it wasn't us."

Justin's jumping for joy 

Now here's a celebrity wedding photo you don't see every day. Justin Timberlake takes a giant leap in the Tom Ford tux he helped design for his marriage to Jessica Biel. 

People magazine has all the exclusive details and photos from the wedding, including Justin playing the guitar and serenading Jessica down the aisle. "It was an original piece I wrote specifically for the evening and her," Justin said. 

In less romantic news, Gawker reports that a friend of Justin's produced a video to be played at the wedding, called "Greetings from your Hollywood friends who just couldn't make it" ... Homeless people in L.A congratulating the happy couple. 

Now that's a tasteful thing to do at a $6.5million wedding ... 

Dlisted says: "So there was Jessica, Justin and their rich friends, covered in diamonds and laughing at the vagrants as they sipped $3,000-a-bottle champagne that was cut with blended $100 bills and sapphire dust. They laughed laughed laughed! That's some depression era shit. When Gawker asked Justin Huchel for a comment, Justin Huchel's lawyer commented with a letter threatening to sue if a piece of the video, which was supposed to be a joke, saw the light of the internet." 

Joe Simpson confirms divorce, denies gay rumors

Jessica Simpson's dad has released a statement confirming he and wife Tina have filed for divorce. 

Well, to be entirely accurate, Tina filed for divorce. And the family's home is up for sale, with a $4.3mil price tag. 

"It's an amicable split and there is no third party involved," according to their rep. "Any other related allegations are completely false. The family appreciates your respect for their privacy at this time." 

The "related allegations" refers to a story in The National Enquirer, which suggests Joe has come out to his family.

“Joe got the family together about two months ago and came out of the closet. He told them that he’d tried to continue in his marriage to Tina, but he couldn’t go on any longer and deny the fact that he had these feelings for men. Joe said it wasn’t fair to her, and it wasn’t fair to him.” 

 And when Joe was pulled over for DUI over two months ago, his 20-year-old boyfriend was apparently sitting next to him in the car.

Ooops.

I'm not entirely sure about the "amicable" part of the statement either, since Joe has filed his own petition, insisting Tina get nothing in the settlement. 

Lindsay accused of stealing ... Again 

The National Enquirer is on a roll this week. It also reckons Lindsay Lohan stole $15,000 worth of clothes from the set of Scary Movie 5.

Lindsay's spokesman Steve Honig told MailOnline: "This is pure National Enquirer fiction."
