I have to tell you there is not all that much going on in the world of gossip today. Since Jan and Kate Gosselin have sworn off talking to the media everything has come to a standstill. Just kidding. Ok, here are some odd and ends baby and wedding news. First off Charles Kelley from Lady Antebellum got married in Nashville last week and then spent the weekend in the Bahamas. He twittered out the happy news!  “90210” alum, Jason Priestley and his wife welcomed their second child, a baby boy. They also have a 2 year old little girl at home, named Ava. Tom Cavanagh and his wife are expecting their 3rd child in the next week or two. They are going to have their hands full; they have a 3 ½ year old and a 2 year old already at home. Somebody is not pregnant and that is “That’s So Raven” star Raven Symone. The 23 year old actress/singer had the internet swirling with rumors that she was not only pregnant but that she had recently given birth. Her rep. told “People” magazine that it was all just rumors. Cutie Ryan Reynolds who is currently starring in “The Proposal” says that one day he would like to adopt. He is married to Scarlett Johansson, and has a brother who was adopted.  He says, “I have every intention of adopting at some time. I’m very grateful for having my brother in my life. I couldn’t be more pro – adoption. There are plenty of kids in the world that need it.” Not only is he cute but so sweet!

Surprising break up news today. First up Nick Lachey, 35 and girlfriend Vanessa Minnillo have ended their 3 year relationship. I have to say I was surprised by this break up, they always seemed so happy together. Where does the love go, which I am sure is what Rachel Hunter is asking herself right about now. Her fiancée, Canadian hockey star, Jarett Stoll called off their engagement and Rachel was completely surprised. The wedding was just 7 weeks away and was expected to be quite a big event with superstars like Sharon Stone and Michelle Pfeiffer expected to attend. Not only did he call off the wedding he even let the guests know the news by sending them an email. A friend of Rachel’s says “She is absolutely devastated. Everything was in place for their wedding – she had the venue, the designer dress, the guest list. She has absolutely no idea why Jarret has done this. It sounds like it could be a classic case of cold feet. He is a fair bit younger than her.” Maybe that is the case, he is 27 and Rachel is 39. Rachel was previously married to Rod Stewart for 9 years. One more surprising break up this week is power couple Jane Kaczmarek and Bradley Whitford who have also filed for divorce. The two have been married for almost 17 years and have 3 children, 6, 9 and 11 years old. They just seemed like one of those unpretentious solid Hollywood couples that you really thought would last.

More Speidi drama ensued this weekend. “The Hills” star, Heidi Montag, is in a Costa Rican hospital. After her and husband Spencer Pratt spent some time alone in the Lost Chamber as punishment for their “behavior” upon quitting and returning to the NBC show “I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here”, Heidi got sick. Sources are saying that after only receiving rice, beans and water that Heidi started vomiting and has been “diagnosed with a gastric ulcer.” Spencer is currently by her side in the hospital and her family is en route to be with her in Costa Rica. Her sister in law is speaking out and is very upset with NBC and the treatment of Heidi and Spencer. On Twitter Stephanie Pratt says, “I’m really saddened to hear that NBC felt it was OK to punish Speidi so harshly – torture them as if there were criminals – that Heidi was rushed to the hospital and has an IV in her arm after being locked in a dark room for 3 days with no food or water. [Please] pray she will be OK.” I cannot say for sure but 3 days with no food or water – I am thinking she is exaggerating a bit. Most reports say it was just overnight. So does this mean the pair really won’t be back on the show this time??
 

Season 6 of the hit HBO show “Entourage” returns on July 12th and has some big guest stars. “High School Musical” hottie Zac Efron joined the show and actually shot some scenes at the Niketown store in Beverly Hills today. None of the other cast members were there but a Niketown employee said Efron shot a scene talking on a cell phone and that he was really nice. Also joining Jeremy Piven and Adrian Grenier this season will be Tom Brady, LeBron James and Lil Wayne and they will all appear as themselves. I don’t know about you but I am ready for some good summer shows to start back up!!
 

Its official – Lauren Conrad from the hit reality show, “The Hills”, will not be returning for season 6. However fear not, that doesn’t mean there will be any less drama, especially since Kristin Cavallari will be joining the show and bringing plenty of drama with her. Cavallari is responsible for introducing Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag and look where they are now. It should be an interesting season since Cavallari told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS FM radio show that she is “on the manhunt, and that her focus will be drinking, fighting, and hooking up”, so let the filming begin. Wow, is it me or is that just quality TV programming in the making?

Wedding bells were ringing again for 2 couples this weekend. Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag from “The Hills” said their” I do’s” this weekend in front of 200 family and friends in California on Saturday afternoon. That is quite a change from the private ceremony they had together when they eloped to Mexico 5 months ago.  In attendance were Lauren Conrad, Brody Jenner, Audrina Partridge and Kristin Cavallari to name a few. Now you might be thinking that Lauren Conrad said she would never be at their wedding and here she was. IT seems that everyone was a bit shocked. And then there was Brody Jenner and his ex Kristin Cavallari while Brody was there with his new girlfriend.awkward! The wedding was filmed so you will be able to see it for yourself on MTV sometime in the future. Should be interesting to see it all unfold. The other couple to celebrate with family and friends this weekend was Salma Hayek and her hubby Francois – Henri Pinault. The two got married Valentine’s Day at city hall but this time did it Hollywood style. They were married at the famous Venice Teatro La  Fenice Opera and were joined by many of their famous friends including, Charlize Theron, Woody Harrelson, Penelope Cruz, Javier Bardem, Ed Norton and Ashley Judd. Bono from U2 was there and even did a little singing for the bride and groom. They had 150 guests join them for the event and the party lasted until after 3:00 a.m.

Today I am just writing about crazy stuff that we seem to be interested in. First off if you haven’t already heard Mel Gibson and his wife of 28 years are getting divorced. But are you ready for this…she is entitled to half of his $1 billion fortune. After all the trouble he has been in over the years, no wonder she stuck around. This will probably be the biggest divorce settlement to date in Hollywood. And there have been some big ones over the years. Michael Jordan’s wife, Juanita, received $168 million for her divorce settlement, while Neil Diamond’s wife got herself a whooping $150 million. Steven Spielberg’s ex – Amy Irving received $100 million. I just think those numbers are staggering! And while we are talking about crazy things the world is talking about…what comes to mind when I say the name Bo? If you said the new first dog living in the White House with the Obama’s you would be correct. Bo is the new Portuguese Water Dog that will now live the sweet life in the White House. But that is not the crazy part...the crazy part is that people can not just be happy for the family, there has to be plenty of contrversy to go along with something so simple as a new puppy. The controversy that has some people outraged is the question of, is this really a rescue dog (like the President said they would do) since the dog was from a breeder who had the dog returned to her. So technically not really a rescued dog. Anyway really people…let them have the dog they want. Does everything have to be politically correct? To make up for the perceived misunderstanding the Obama’s did make a donation to the humane society in the District of Columbia.
