• Martha Stewart called out Rachael Ray yesterday for moving up her pre-recorded show with Barry Manilow to air at the same time Stewart had him on live. “It’s not fair to the artist because these performers deserve to reach as big of an audience as possible. But anyway, we have him here. Live.”
• Saturday Night Live star Maya Rudolph and boyfriend, Boogie Nights director Paul Thomas Anderson filed a lawsuit Thursday claiming that bedbugs have drove them out of their $13,500-a-month SoHo apartment. The couple is seeking over $350,000 in damages.
• Neil Patrick Harris admits he’s gay in an official statement: “The public eye has always been kind to me, and until recently I have been able to live a pretty normal life. Now it seems there is speculation and interest in my private life and relationships. So, rather than ignore those who choose to publish their opinions without actually talking to me, I am happy to dispel any rumors or misconceptions and am quite proud to say that I am a very content gay man living my life to the fullest and feel most fortunate to be working with wonderful people in the business I love.”

• George Clooney and former flame Renee Zellweger had a romantic dinner together at Tower Bar in the Sunset Tower Hotel in L.A. two Sundays ago. The two cuddled, held hands, and slow danced to piano music, according to a Post spy. However, the Daily News reports that the dinner was all business, as Zellweger is in talks to star in “Leatherheads,” the football flick Clooney will direct.
• Despite Sarah Michelle Gellar’s public praise of The Girl’s Guide to Hunting and Fishing co-star Alec Baldwin, sources close to the two say they hate each other.

There’s no doubt that Nelly Furtado’s latest single, Promiscuous, from her album Loose, is on fire at the moment. It is making its rounds on hit-radio stations all across the US and is currently sitting at #3 on Billboard’s Hot 100 music chart. Definitely not a small feat for the Canadian singer/song-writer.

Here are some photos of her from a recent photoshoot–beautiful eyes and all. Enjoy!

• Check out the pictures of Suri Cruise in Vanity Fair… Tom Cruise is also  featured in the latest issue of Arena Magazine and discusses MI:4 shutting down Tokyo, Japan for an entire week. But come on already, enough with Tom and Katie.  We want to see baby Suri already!  Can I get an Amen?!

• Reese Witherspoon’s scary lawyer people are not only suing Star Magazine but they’re also requiring me to publish this canned apology since Reese is not pregnant, so here goes:
  

  RETRACTION & APOLOGY: We previously re-published a story which had appeared in Star Magazine claiming that actress Reese Witherspoon is pregnant with her third child. We now know that this story is false and unfounded. We regret the error and apologize to Ms.Witherspoon for any distress that the publication of this story may have caused.

  This is the aforementioned "story" (already revised), published about a month ago.  The funny thing is that I don’t even read Star Magazine.  Weird, huh?  In any event, SORRY REESE!! LOVE YA!!

I never really talked about that, actually. [But] when I was around 22 or 23, I decided I’d mention it because I decided I was one of the few people I knew who had that problem who didn’t remain a freak about it."

YAWN! Hopefully we’ll get a new director for X4?  AND — if you were impatient and left before all the X3 credits finished rolling (or if you forgot like me), check out the video clip of that scene below.

What do you do with the mad that you feel
When you feel so mad, you could bite
When the whole wide world seems oh so wrong
And nothing you do seems very right
What do you do
Do you punch a bag
Do you pound some clay or some dough
Do you round up friends for a game of tag
Or see how fast you go
It’s great to be able to stop
When you’ve planned the thing that’s wrong
And be able to do something else instead
And think this song
I can stop when I want to
I can stop when I wish
I can stop, stop, stop
Anytime
And what a good feeling to feel like this
And know that the feeling is really mine
Know that there’s something deep inside
That helps us become what we can
For a girl can be someday a lady
And a boy can be someday a man
