Isabella Brewster wraps her arm around rumored boyfriend Milo Ventimiglia while out and about in Santa Monica, Calif.

The twosome seemed like a couple at first but then quickly separated when they spotted paparazzi.

Milo, 32, stars on the NBC drama Heroes and broke up with his co-star Hayden Panettiere back in February.

Isabella was/is an agent at CAA talent agency and is the younger sister of actress Jordana Brewster, 29. Back in March, Isabella was romantically linked to Bradley Cooper, who is currently dating Renee Zellweger.

Director Terry Gilliam's latest script called for a vaudevillian take on Satan, a Prince of Darkness in a pencil-thin moustache.

When Tom Waits agreed to step into the role for "The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus," Gilliam was thrilled.

"If you're going to have a devil in your life, Tom is the man," he said.

Indeed, given Waits' technicolour performance in the film, it seems a role he was born to play - just don't say that to the woman who gave birth to him.

"Don't tell my mom," Waits told The Canadian Press earlier this year at the Toronto International Film Festival. "She's really upset. Pretty pissed off about the whole thing."

Why, exactly?

Nothing is bolded, because it is Tom Waits and he is awesome. Also, did anyone here see "Parnassus?" Was it good?

Brittany Murphy's husband Simon Monjack has accused the media of publishing unfair stories about him following his wife's tragic death - insisting the press is targeting him because he is not an attractive Hollywood star. Murphy passed away earlier this month, December 2009 after suffering a cardiac arrest at her Hollywood Hills home in Los Angeles.

Monjack is adamant many of the reports that have surfaced after Murphy's death have been unfairly negative, with some publications detailing his past financial problems and calling him a "conman." And the British screenwriter is convinced he is being victimized by the press because he doesn't compare to his wife's ex-boyfriend, actor Ashton Kutcher.

He tells Britain's Daily Mail newspaper, "I know I have been called a conman. I am not perfect. I never said I was. But there has been so much rubbish written about me and Brittany. Most of what you read is made up. My problem is that I do not look like Ashton Kutcher... Nor do they like the fact that she married someone who was not famous. (In Hollywood), stars like stars to marry other stars."

And Monjack has slammed reports which suggested his late wife was taking a dangerous cocktail of prescription drugs before her death, insisting most of the pill bottles which officials found in their home were old.

He adds, "I know what the inference is by all those pills. That she was some kind of addict, but addicts hide away their pills. They do not leave them on the nightstand like Brittany. Some of them were old and date back to when Brittany had some ailment or other. You know how people accumulate things and never throw them away."

Allen reportedly defends Britney in the new Harper's Bazaar magazine, saying Britney is a legend and Lady Gaga needs to sit down and shut it!



The question posed to Allen was: Britney Spears or Lady Gaga?

( Her exact answer... )

This post is also an excuse to post this:


 
Britney, take tips from whoever directs the D&G commercials.

1 Import Export (Ulrich Seidl) The most sorrowful movie of the year is also the best. The miserable lives of Ukrainian immigrants in Vienna make this agonizing but brilliantly directed opus the cinematic equivalent of slitting your wrists. A new genre? Depression porn? Hey, I got off.

2 Antichrist (Lars von Trier) If Ingmar Bergman had committed suicide, gone to hell, and come back to earth to direct an exploitation/art film for drive-ins, this is the movie he would have made

3 In the Loop (Armando Iannucci) A smart, mean, foulmouthed British satire about the struggle for global power that asks the all-important question: How do you debate the invasion of Iraq if your gums start to bleed in the middle of your presentation?

4 World’s Greatest Dad (Bobcat Goldthwait) Why, oh why, wasn’t this blackest of comedies a hit? Appallingly rude, decidedly family unfriendly, this autoerotic-suicide tale of a hateful son and his clueless father left the viewer gasping in surprise.

5 Brüno (Larry Charles) Don’t listen to the critics—it’s better than Borat. Imagine a hetero teen couple in a mall on a first date somewhere in Middle America watching Sacha Baron Cohen pantomime every known gay male sex act, ending in a joyous “facial.” Sometimes audiences get what they deserve.

6 Lorna’s Silence (Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne) How do these great art films get financed? European socialism, that’s how, and I’m glad the taxpayers abroad put up the dough for this Tracking Shots“R”Us masterpiece. Only the Dardenne brothers could get away with not showing the dramatic action that climaxes the whole movie. Just think if they had to test-screen this film in America!

7 Broken Embraces (Pedro Almodóvar) There was some grumbling from Cannes that this wasn’t one of Pedro’s best, but boy were those rumors wrong. It’s a beaut! A relentlessly intelligent melodrama filled with so many dizzying plot points that you’ll experience vertigo.

8 The Baader Meinhof Complex (Uli Edel) Now here were some kids who knew how to cause trouble! Hmmm...What should we do today? Stop the Olympics or blow up a commercial airplane? These radicals made the Weathermen look like pussies.

9 Whatever Works (Woody Allen) Gerontophilia never seemed so appealing. This time, Woody goes a little gay and lives to tell about it with lovely, comic success. I am so mad I don’t have this director’s career.

10 The Headless Woman (Lucrecia Martel) Bleached hair, hit-and-run accidents, in-laws with hepatitis? Huh? I didn’t get it, but I sure did love it!

Hollywood actress Lindsay Lohan is planning a trip to Guatemala for charity work after returning from a visit to India, said her mother Dina Lohan.

The actress flew to New Delhi earlier this month to shoot a BBC documentary about child poverty and human trafficking. The charity work “humbled and moved” former wild child Lohan so much that she is now working on taking her philanthropic efforts to Central America, with the help of TV titan Oprah Winfrey, according to WENN.

“Lindsay definitely wants to give more back. We are now planning a trip to help the children of Guatemala, which will be filmed by Oprah’s (TV) network,” said Dina.

GRAHAM WANTS TO STRIP PREGNANT IN THE HANGOVER SEQUEL



HEATHER GRAHAM can't wait for a sequel to hit movie THE HANGOVER - because she wants to play a pregnant stripper.

The Boogie Nights star has yet to see a script for a much-anticipated follow up but she's already pitching ideas to writer/director Todd Phillips for her character, Jade.

She says, "I think Stu should get her pregnant, and that she should do a pregnant strip dance. I know it sounds so wrong, but it sounds so right."

Failing that, Graham tells Eonline.com she'd like to see a bachelorette party theme for the sequel: "That'd be really cool. Seriously, I wish. We need to get someone to write that script."

I'd give a week's pay to see this. I love her so.

Until Brittany Murphy lent her voice to the penguin Gloria in the 2006 animated hit Happy Feet, the public had gotten only a taste of the chanteuse within the actress on a No. 1 dance club track called "Faster Kill Pussycat," written and produced by Grammy-nominated British trance artist Paul Oakenfold.

"Brittany trained as a singer before she did as an actress," Oakenfold tells PEOPLE. "She was a great actress but she had great vocal potential."

At first, Murphy wasn't so sure she wanted to be attached to Oakenfold's song. She told PEOPLE in 2006, "I've been singing my whole life and [recording] a lot of anonymous vocals. And this was another anonymous vocal, 20 minutes behind the booth in the recording studio two years ago. Then Paul had asked me if I'd put my name on it. The song is so incredible, I said 'Yes,' and we made a video."

But Oakenfold intended Murphy to be the centerpiece of his music video all along. "Her presence on the video is very powerful," he says. "She is very commanding visually and that's what we wanted. We wanted that energy and she did a great job."

As for putting her name on the song, Oakenfold recalls, "I said to her, 'Why hide behind something? You have a really great vocal. People are going to be shocked and pleasantly happy with what they're going to hear. You are not one of these actresses who are trying to sing and not doing a good job of it.'"

And he should know.

"I demoed three other girls on that song," Oakenfold says, "and some of the girls were pretty big singers – and Brittany blew them away."

In recent years, Murphy had been in the process of recording her own album. "She would have done well," Oakenfold says. "She wanted to try this with me, this smoky blues sound with electronic rhythms. She wanted to sound more traditional originally but I told her we should go more edgy. She was really excited by that and it's just a shame it never got as far as people thought it could. It's just a shame that the world is not going to hear more songs of Brittany Murphy."

When it comes to provocative stage routines, there's none raunchier than Rihanna's.

Except for this New Years Eve when the pop beauty could be performing in a sensible woollen sweater and a comfortable pair of jeans.

The star has been running around in next to nothing in Barbados all Christmas and is due to perform in sweltering Abu Dhabi on New Years Eve.

But we can reveal she has been told to dress conservatively for her gig at the Emirates Palace. And, as she's said to be making $500,000 for her performance, she's likely to do exactly what she's told. which means the white slashed latex body suit she wore at the American Music Awards [not to mention her collection of eye-popping bras] will be mothballed.

Her team are now said to be working frantically on new outfits which are respectful of local traditions.

A source tells us: "Rihanna is tearing her hair out over what to do; she wanted to put on her most eccentric and provocative show yet. She knows that she'll have to compromise her style to fit in with local traditions but a huge part of her show is her sexy stage gear."

The dress code in Abu Dhabi does not encourage excessively revealing outfits -- but it's no secret Riri is the if you've got it, flaunt it type of girl. Organizers are getting hot under the collar about possible wardrobe choices but they trust it will be handled tastefully.

The star has had an eventful year: she was assaulted by her ex Chris Brown in February before bouncing back with her Rated R album, so she'd be forgiven for enjoying a few drinks to see in 2010. But it seems there could even be a problem with that.

We're told: "Her people are trying to iron out all of the details for the rider which is proving to be somewhat problematic."

Apparently Rihanna always likes to have some bottles of vodka in her hotel room, but she may need to obtain a license if she is to store the alcohol in her dressing room during the gig. She would have loved to have a party with her team straight after the show and pop some champagne, too.

Oh well, she can always cheer herself up by counting all the money she's just earned.
