Vanessa Minnillo has been showing off an impressive pair of $40,000 diamond stud earrings that boyfriend Nick Lachey gave her. The backstory is that the earrings were sort of a “shut up” present. They were NOT the gift Vanessa wanted. She has been hoping for a diamond RING – an engagement ring, to be exact. Nick doesn’t consider himself ready for that commitment just yet, so he presented her with the earrings to buy himself some time.
This pretty actress looks like the girl next door and has a juicy role on a hit cable series. She’s well liked in the business and her career is taking off. But she can’t hold onto a boyfriend because of her nasty secret. It seems they object to her addiction to Vicodin. They don’t like the sleazy drug dealers that come to her house, and they worry about what it’s doing to her health. She’s been hooked for years and isn’t interested in rehab. Her last boyfriend (who REALLY loved her) gave her an ultimatum: “It’s me or the drug.” She chose the drug, as usual.
Celebrities often complain that they are recognized and stared at and hounded by fans when they go out in public. Of course, if you’re surrounded by bodyguards, you’re bound to attract a few glances. Carrying a $20,000 handbag, or getting out of an Escalade with blacked out windows can also draw attention. But SOME famous people are very clever about playing DOWN their assets and they WALK AMONG US and we don’t know it! The actress pictured here gets our award for best celebrity undercover. By the way – that’s Scarlett Johansson in the red hat!

Kim Basinger may have crossed the line here. She’s hired around the clock BODYGUARDS to protect her 11 year old daughter Ireland from her angry father Alec Baldwin. Baldwin has apologized both publicly and privately to his daughter for his voicemail tirade in which he called her a “thoughtless little pig.” Alec is in New York and cannot see his daughter at least until a May 4 court date. Apparently all that negative publicity wasn’t enough to satisfy Kim, she had to rub salt in the wound by hiring bodyguards to “protect” her daughter. We wonder – will she send the bill to Alec?

Tomboyish Michelle Rodriguez is NOT threatening the photographer in this photo taken at Teddy’s over the weekend. In fact she’s just getting up in his face being playful – photogs say she’s very down to earth. And even MORE down to earth is the fact that she goes out to clubs WITHOUT a face full of make up.
