KEVIN FEDERLINE ISN’T MISSING ANY MEALS

We can’t resist picking on Kevin Federline just a little. He appears to be EATING his way across the country on Britney’s tour. Above, he’s in New York. It’s getting hard to remember way back when Britney considered this guy to be hot looking. Now he’s one of those dudes who buy all their clothes in XXXL and don’t notice when they’re packing on the pounds.

“24” star Kiefer Sutherland has a new hangout- “The Association” – an underground hipster bar in downtown Los Angeles. He’s known for being a charming barfly and a big tipper. On his last visit Kiefer drank a full bottle of Dewars scotch. He confessed to a staffer that he was going to “smoke in the bathroom” and no one bothered him. Before he left, he assured an employee that he didn’t drive – “I’m not THAT dumb” he joked. Let’s hope he also gave up the head-butting.

What does Sylvester Stallone do when he gets BORED on a sleepy summer day? He puts on an NYPD cap and cruises around Beverly Hills in his big black hot rod. Surprised faces and shouted greetings come from all sides. Sly creates his own amusement.

NO MORE “GOOD GIRLS”- CLAIRE DANES WANTS A NEW IMAGE

Danes 1cut

Claire Danes is best known for playing good girls (“Romeo & Juliet” and “My So-Called Life”) and now that she’s 30 and engaged to Hugh Dancy, she decided to flaunt her bad girl side in a photo layout in “BlackBook.” One place she won’t be honeymooning is The Philippines. After filming “Brokedown Palace “ in Manila she badmouthed the city, mentioning rats, cockroaches and sewage, and her movies were subsequently banned there.

HELENA BONHAM CARTER AND TIM BURTON MIGHT BE EXPECTING THEIR THIRD CHILD

This news almost slipped right past us because Helena Bonham Carter, 43, is in the habit of wearing layers of loose clothing. Judging by appearances, as we ARE prone to do, Helena appears to be quite pregnant as she shops in a Malibu bookstore. Helena and her domestic partner, director Tim Burton, have two children already – Billy, 6, and Nell, 2. They consider their relationship to be successful partly due to the fact that they live in separate houses right next door to each other in London.

MARISA TOMEI’S BOYFRIEND LOGAN MARSHALL GREEN IS STARRING ON “DARK BLUE” SERIES

Marisa Tomei has a lot to be happy about- she ‘s finished several movies since “The Wrestler” and her relationship with actor Logan Marshall Green is still going strong. Logan got a steady job – he’s costarring on the Jerry Bruckheimer series “Dark Blue” with Dylan McDermott. The contented couple bicycled to the set of “Letters to Juliet” in New York. We wish more movies were being made in Los Angeles.

CELINE DION’S BABY (HOPEFULLY A GIRL) IS DUE IN NINE MONTHS

blog171108_celinecut

When word got out that Celine Dion, 41, was pregnant from an in vitro fertilization procedure, her doctor said she was “very, very early” into her pregnancy. Celine had an embryo implanted that she had frozen eight years ago when attempting to get pregnant with her son Rene-Charles. This week the New York Post revealed that Celine’s spokesperson Muriel Blondeau disclosed that Celine is due to give birth next MAY. That’s over NINE MONTHS from now. The doc wasn’t kidding when he said she just got the good news. Judging by her son’s hair, we’re guessing Celine is hoping for a daughter.

JENNIFER ANISTON DOEN’T MIND KISSING STRANGERS, AS LONG AS THEY HAVE FOUR LEGS

Jennifer Aniston has never had a problem relating to dogs. She’s in New York filming “The Bounty” outside in excessively hot weather but she couldn’t resist stopping to give a kiss to two dogs that were being walked nearby. Jen’s own beloved dog Norman,13, is no doubt waiting for her in some air-conditioned place nearby.

GOOD NEWS! “INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS” IS NOT JUST ANOTHER DEPRESSING WAR MOVIE

chris waltz columbo

Peter Falk might be amused to see that certain characteristics of his TV detective character “Columbo” live ON in the form of a Nazi! Quentin Tarantino’s new WWII movie “Inglourious Basterds” is a huge surprise- it’s not just a war movie. In fact, there’s gore, but very few fighting scenes. There are laughs, and lots of tension – mostly created by German actor Christoph Waltz’s malevolent Nazi character Hans Landa. This Nazi considers himself a detective and terrifies his prey – first, with innocent and charming chatter. Just when you think the inquisition is OVER, Landa innocently turns, like Columbo, and says “Oh there’s one more thing….” and someone’s doom is sealed. He operates like an evil version of Columbo’s bumbling but brilliant detective. Even if you have reservations, you’re going to be surprised how much you like this entertaining movie. Tarantino’s war is nothing like the real one was.

WILL LANE GARRISON WORK IN HOLLYWOOD AGAIN?

Lane Garrison is still trying to do all the right things. First of all, he admitted his guilt. While he was in prison for the drunk driving accident that killed a teenage boy and injured two teen girls, he studied and was a model prisoner. We hear that recently he arranged to have separate private meetings with the families of his victims and he apologized profusely and begged for forgiveness. Lane will be on probation for four more years and we can’t help thinking he’s more sincere than Michael Vick. But will Hollywood give the “Prison Break” actor another chance?
