Why not? I’m watching it anyway. I’m officially on the hunt for pictures so we can discuss. While we are waiting, here is hottie Hugh Jackman hanging out with his kid at the beach. Is anyone else excited about Wolverine?!

• Heidi Klum and Seal might do a duet album. Heidi didn’t really have a clue that Seal has written several songs with her in mind.

• Stacy London wore BLACK to the Oscars? I am SO surprised! Wouldn’t you think that she would want to pop off the carpet (which looks more like wine than red by the way)?

• George Clooney spent Valentine’s day in Vegas and hung out with Sarah’s friends and dismissed rumors that he walked up to Nic Cage’s house and bought it on sight.

• Anne Hathaway - LOVE IT! Just saw Miley Cyrus… looking for a pic.
• Le SIGH - The Rock. He came to the Oscars by himself (if only he called…)
• Jessica Alba is in plum and Jennifer Garner looks adorable!Searching…
• Amy Adams is cute. She was carrying a really small bag and Ryan Seacrest got her to admit that she is carrying nothing in her bag tonight. It was just for show.
• Jennifer Garner got kissed on the neck by Gary Busey and was very nervous afterwards. Legitimately nervous. She got pulled away and I was keeping my fingers crossed that Gary wouldn’t start punching Ryan. That was all very weird wasn’t it? Anyone know what that was about?

I was talking to a friend last week about Crazy Days and Nights and how his blind items are always so WILD. I actually emailed him a few months ago and begged for an answer to one of his questions (I don’t remember which one), but he wouldn’t budge. I even promised not to post it… but no again.

Here are some of Ent’s most interesting items on the site now as gathered by an ONTD poster:

• What male comeback star (in movies and mostly TV) is known as a completely cold, unpleasant fish to work with, though he can certainly turn on the charm when he needs to? (Dempsey??)
• What couple almost split up during the making of that movie because she was on fire with jealousy that he got to show his actual talent? (No worries. It totally bombed.) (?)
• Which charismatic pit bull is described by some who’ve worked with her as a monster off-camera as well, someone who took her assigned role a little too seriously and became quite power-mad in the head? (? - Pit bull and monster - let’s think…)
• What transforming young movie star already seemed problematic last year when, in the middle of a press junket, he would snap at underlings, “Where’s my cigarette?” then would rudely bolt for a puffing break when he got one? (Shia? - I’ve been hearing terrible things about him lately - don’t want to believe it)
• Which swiveling tartlet’s people brutally Tasered a young fan who simply wanted to tell her he loves her? At this point, shouldn’t they Taser all the people who don’t care? (?)
• Which club regular is rumored to dabble in dominatrix work and is so successful at it that she got $1,100 from a guy just to shave one armpit? Shouldn’t there be some kind of buy-one-get-one-free deal? (Club regular… Paris?)

People Magazine already reported that Leah Remini came to visit good friend Jennifer Lopez while in the hospital enjoying her twins. But I just wanted to tell you that she was very friendly and kind to all waddling new moms. She said hello and made eye contact with the rest of women on the floor while walking through the halls. I love that Leah was approachable.
