Matt Damon on whether he'll follow in Lance Armstrong's footsteps after running a triathlon this past weekend:

"I don't think so. I knew I was in trouble when the old guy with the oxygen tank passed me."

Handsome, athletic, and hilarious...how can you not love this guy!??

Christina Aguilera Will Stay Raunchy No Matter What

Kyle — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 08:47:00 -0400

Christina Aguilera isn't worried about what her son will think of her raunchy performances when he's older. She's says it's all part of just being who she is.

"It is important to show Max what mommy does. It is really important to me is that he is an individual and that's why it is important for me to stay true to myself. If it happens to be raunchy so be it! It's a matter of self expression to me."

In the past she hasn't been afraid to shock. Remember the chaps in the Dirrty video? Imagine the teasing Max is going to get at school when he's older!

Lauren Conrad Denies Justin Bobby Hook Up

Lauren Conrad is denying claims that she hooked up with former roomate Audrina Patridge's boyfriend, Justin Bobby. Lauren tells Us Magazine:

"I'm being accused of being a bad friend, a s**t and a liar all at once. It would actually be funny to me if people weren't taking it seriously. The worst thing is knowing that a friend, that I've known for years and even shared a home with, thinks that I'm capable of that kind of betrayal. I would never hurt a friend like that!"

Conrad continued, this time pointing fingers on her Myspace. She writes:

"Once again someone has mysteriously called Perez Hilton and had him post another insane and completely false rumor about me. Hmmmmmm... I wonder who it could be? I'm baffled... What kind of person would enjoy watching blogs and the press tear me apart? Who is someone that I do not get along with, that possibly has too much time on his hands (between pathetically staged paparazzi shots)."

This should make for good Hills drama!

Kelly Osbourne Gests Tested For STDs 3 Or 4 Times A Year

I'd say it's better than not going at all.

Kelly Osbourne has confessed that she is so nervous about contracting an STD that she visits a clinic three or four times a year to get tested.

"I'm not the kind of person who talks about my sex life, but I'm not afraid to talk about contraception. I go three, maybe four times a year to get tested (for sexually transmitted infections) and most of the time I don't even need to. I just go for peace of mind."

I'm pretty sure you are not required to go that many times in a year. But, if this quote gets young people inspired to get themselves checked out, then Kelly just did a great thing.

Duffy Has Sold Her Soul For Fame

Duffy already feels as if she has sold her soul and she isn't even close to the Britney Spears and Katie Holmes of this world!

"As a girl I thought I was superhuman… but I’m borderline on a breakdown. The scary thing is that this feels like the beginning. It would be easy to become a recluse… I have sold my soul."

She says she's surprised at the high price celebrities pay.

"It can be scary when there are 15 lads on one side of a pub and a gang of girls on the other who all want a photo. I’m never calm anymore. There’s a lot to it I didn’t think of. It’s not the physical stuff - it’s mental."

Personally I LOVE her music, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that she won't be following in Amy Winehouse's footsteps anytime soon.

Do you think what Duffy says about fame is true? Is it so much worse than any of us normal people could ever imagine? We envy celebs for their glamorous lives and the financial security they have, but is it worth giving up your privacy?

Thandie Newton Would Give Birth Every Year If She Could

Vera — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 10:54:00 -0400

"Birth is very challenging in the best way possible. Every fiber of your being is alive. It’s like you are conducting electricity; literally creating something. "I’d like to give birth every year if I could, just for that experience."

-- Thandie Newton

Simon Cowell Doesn't Care About Clay Aiken's Sexuality Announcement

Vera — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 10:52:00 -0400

Wow. That's a shock. It's like being told Santa Claus isn't real. Unbelievable."

-- Simon Cowell's reaction to Clay Aiken admitting he is gay

Always with such class and couth...

Scarlett Johansson Is Not A Tourist Attraction

Kyle — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 12:11:00 -0400

We keep hearing more and more diva stories about Scarlett Johansson. It looks like Hollywood really has gotten to her. This past weekend she was in NYC when a doorman asked for a photo, but she wasn't having any of that!

The actress and fiancé Ryan Reynolds hit the Lower East Side spot National Underground the other night "wearing matching bowler hats," our spy said. Even though Johansson was "dressed down in a black blazer and jeans," the doorman recognized her. Our spy said that "the doorman asked to take a photo with Scarlett" but that she snapped, "I'm not the Statue of Liberty," before heading inside.

While I understand her wanting privacy on vacation and I get that celebs can't always say yes to a photo, there are definitely nicer ways to turn a guy down.

Nicole Richie And Joel Madden On Parenthood

Kyle — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 12:57:00 -0400

No matter how many mushy quotes on parenthood we hear from celebs, I still can't get enough...I LOVE hearing stars talk about their babies! Nicole Richie and Joel Madden recently talked about how Harlow's doing and what it's like watching her grow up.

Nicole on more kids:

"If it happens, it happens."

Nicole on Harlow growing up:

"She is pulling herself up standing ... we don't have to burp her anymore."

Joel on Harlow's conversation skills:

She says 'mama' and 'dada.' She says 'dada' when she wants to play. Wants to laugh. And 'mama' is everything else. When we walk into a place, she waves to everyone."

Nicole on the paparazzi:

"My priority is to make her unaware. She's eight months now. I can't put her in the infant seat and cover her. She'd definitely know something's going on ... she wants to experience life and, as a mother, that's important."

And finally Joel says that being a parent,

"opens your eyes. Every child I look at reminds me of my child. And every mother I see reminds me of Nicole."

In case you're wondering, they are still continuing their work with the Richie-Madden Children's Foundation. If you want to support them, they have a texting program going on:

Their new initiative: Encouraging people to text "child" to 9-0999 ($5 will be donated to a children’s charity they sponsor).

These two seem like they are in a really great place with their lives right now!
