Brooke Shields pregnant again.

Second baby due this coming spring. Congrats!

Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams have baby.

Matilda Ledger born this weekend. Seems like a surge of these "older" names - Matilda, Violet (J. Garner's baby-to-be's - name-to-be supposedly)..... no more Apples or Pilots, but now we're at the names from some time ago....

I liked when Rose and Max came back as names, but not sure about Matilda or Violet.

Noah Wyle has second baby.

Daughter, Auden Wyle, born to Noah Wyle and his wife Tracy.....

Jen and Vince spotted together.

lots of incriminating pics of vince and jen in chicago.....def. a couple!

Jude Law and Salma Hayek?

We know that Jude and Sienna have broken up, much due to the fact that Sienna was supposedly hooking up with Daniel Craig, the new Mr. James Bond. Now, supposedly Jude and Salma were spotted together, and Sienna freaked out!!!

Do we have a Love square.....Jude/Sienna/Daniel/Salma....

Jen and Vince smooching again!

Last week, Jen was spotted at the Vic Theatre, where Vince was putting on his Wild West comedy tour. Afterwards, the pair was spotted smooching and dancing together. And, they were spotted throughout Chicago all week - at Weiner Circle, Nomi, Pane Caldo, the Gap in Lake Forest, etc. Hmmmm - how fun it would be to see the two of them!! Why am I never at these places when they are? Not that I'm at Weiner Circle OR Nomi all that often.....

Vince and Jen spotted smooching!

Jen Aniston and Vince Vaughn were in Chicago making out.

Nick and Jess spotted together in London.

Nick and Jessica were spotted together at Heathrow Airport, with rings on....A ruse? Or are they still really together?

Just how far along is Katie Holmes?

We just saw the first "pregnancy" pics of TomKitten to be. Ms. Kat of TomKat appears to be more than 3 months pregnant, people are saying. Hmmm...interesting.

What I've been trying to figure out is this:
did they get engaged and then purposely get pregnant?
did they get engaged and in the excitement accidentally get pregnant?
OR.....
did they accidentally get pregnant and THEN decide to get engaged? They got engaged June 17th, and people don't announce they are pregnant until at least 3 months. Could it be that they got preg early June and waited a bit later to announce? Say at 4 months? (which is in sync with what the "people" are saying above).

Jude and Sienna call it quits.

Sienna Miller and Jude Law are engaged no more. We all know that things have been strained since Jude and the nanny had an affair and it became public. Rumors are swirling that Sienna "could be" dating Daniel Craig, Jude's friend and the rumored next James Bond. Miller and Craig both deny any romance, saying they are just friends.

nick and jess update

well, both have been spotted wearing rings over the past few days.... and they've both denied any split. i read that US mag is mad at the couple because they've given lots of rights to OK magazine in the UK, and US doesn't like this, so is making up some stories.... not sure what is true anymore.

but, man - the constant speculation must get pretty tough on nick & jess.

Nick and Jessica.... Done? for real?

Rumors flying that Nick and Jessica are finito. US Weekly reports it as their cover story. Reps are denying that this is true, so stay tuned.....

Remember the eonline story a few months back that Jess had filed for divorce....
And Nick & Jess's best pals Jessie Lynn and AJ Discala just split up..... maybe it made them feel more comfortable moving forward.

anyways, the word is still out.....

Katie Holmes Pregnant!

Oh my - haven't heard much about TomKat lately.... and now pow! Big news. She is pregnant! They are having a baby.

Oct 2nd - D Day

Brad and Jen's divorce will be final.

Paris and Paris call it quits.

I knew this earlier, but blogger.com was down! so -- Paris has called off the engagement to Paris......

which one called it off? It sounds like Miss Hilton.

The Donald and Melania expecting!

Melania Knauss is pregnant - it will be the first child for her and Donald Trump, though he has four other kids from other marriages.... baby will arrive this spring!

Another split....

Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray, both of One Tree Hill, splitting after 5 months.....

More Fall TV talk.....

So I'm watching a lot of shows this fall. Last night watched the premieres of DH and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Curious what everyone thought of the shows?

Also, this year, in addition to my faves Lost, OC and (in Jan) 24, DH , Curb and The Office, I'm adding Prison Break - which is a good one, trying out Invasion (interesting - I predict that guy copy married to the blond is an alien) and Reunion (only saw 1st ep so far - had high hopes, but didn't think it was so great).... and then SNL when it returns - Steve Carrell hosting the premiere!

Marcia Cross is great. She should get an award. I think she and Eva Longoria are the best at going beyond their "normal" personalities - Felicity Huffman I like a LOT, but I think her role isn't that much of a stretch, and same with Terri Hatcher. But the other two, esp. Marcia are great.

I'm trying to think if i have shows every night:
Monday - prison break
Tuesday - Office
Wednesday - Lost and Invasion
Thursday - OC and Reunion
Friday - ?
Saturday - SNL
Sunday - DH and Curb

Will she go back to ..... Jamie Lynn Sigler?

Jamie Lynn (formerly Sigler) Discala and hubby A.J. Discala have separated after two years of marriage.

Wow - lots of splits. The couple is pretty close buds with Jessica and Nick - I wonder if this will impact them at all, in terms of having some close friends split. If Jess/Nick rumors are true - will this be the impetus for them to also move forward with a break up?

Ashton and Demi wed!

Check it out.

Lost fans....

So, what did you all think?

So, just some thoughts, just some info from last night's ep. maybe true, maybe not ....

Desmond was definitely the guy who was in the hatch. When he and Charlie met running the stands, Desmond ended their convo with "See you in another life".....

The man who died when Sarah's car hit another was named Mr. Rutherford. Shannon's last name is Rutherford and her father died a few years ago. Is that the same man....

The "numbers" are everywhere - in the hospital, in the mural in the hatch, on Desmond's meds, etc....

Cool thing I am going to now -- www.oceanicflight815.com, go to the bar code and type in theislandiswaiting .....

What would Donna Martin say?

People.com states that Tori Spelling is already seeing someone else - while away on set filming a TV movie in August, she realized: 1) ex-hubby Charlie Shanian was note right for her and 2) new co-star Dean McDermott was.....

fall telee....

starts for me this week! OC and Reunion baby! i have very high expectations for reunion. I hope it's good, and i'm not overexcited. my brother saw the pilot and says it's a good show. also, i noticed that the cast is mostly people who have been on other shows vs. total newbies. there is hayley/tessa, from both OC and the North Shore... 'member that one? a guy from American Dreams, and a girl from some David E. Kelley lawyer show.... can't remember the name, but Claire from 90210 was on it.

we tivo'd prison break, but missed the first two eps. sounds good though.

and curb your enthusiasm is starting up again. goodbye entourage, hello curb. the entourage finale was pretty good. i thought vince was going to kick mandy moore off of aquaman, but guess not. how funny is jeremy piven. he is SO funny. orig, i wasn't sure this was really his type of role, as he's uz. john cusack's nerdyish, nice guy buddy. but he is great as ari gold!!! love the show.

ok - that's all for now.

Exciting movie sequel news....

Yea! Old School - the sequel said to be happening!!

scoopgirl talk....

Hey, it's my 100th post! so what's new.....

hmmm. i can't believe some fall shows are coming soon. I think I talked about it last week, but OC is starting in like three weeks. Not sure about the other shows.... but I can't believe it's almost fall. well, fall TV at least.... and it is getting darker earlier....

britney's gonna have her baby anytime now.... crazy huh. last i heard it was a boy, and she was going to name him Preston. Preston Federline I guess? Pre-Fed? And I heard Jen and Ben are having a girl, and they are planning on naming her Violet. Violet Affleck. Vi-o-leck? Not lovin' that one. I personally think somewhat unique names COULD be cute - potentially - but just picking a random unique name to do it is pointless. It seems strange to look at a little baby and think, aw, Violet! or aw, Hazel. and the newest, Poet Goldberg - Soleil Moon Frye's new baby. PoGo? And Apple - i know everyone thinks is silly - myself included - but out of those four names, I have to say, I think it's the cutest. It is a nutty name, but i can at least picture some cute blond kid in pigtails with big rosy cheeks. Apple Martin sounds like an apple martin-i, but besides that, like some aloof fancy girl kinda. 'Ap-tin?

all right - more gossip; well, i hear denise and charlie are maybe getting back together. robert downey is supposedly getting married this weekend.

and how can I not mention Jen A - my fave ... she is still in Chi town, but I think wrapping up her movie. I'm so bummed I haven't seen her, though I did see Vince and Vince's new home-to-be. But how fun it would have been to bump into jennifer aniston. she's been here for months - how come I'm not seeing her? I went to a nice restaurant, Butter, on friday night and was thinking - hum, I could see her coming in and dining here. prob. the closest place I've been that she coulda been....

all right. that's all for now. signing off, comment! write! read! enjoy!

Punky Brewster has a baby!

Another wacky baby name. But from a girl named Soleil Moon Frye - whatcha expect? Her baby girl is named Poet. Congrats to Soleil and hubby Jason.

Team Aniston or Team Jolie?

I also heard, from my brother, that the Team Aniston shirts are all in small girlie sizes, and the Team Jolie shirts are in larger, manly sizes. So - does that mean the gals are for Jen. A, and the men are all jealous of Brad?

I love Billie Joe. and they did most of my fave songs....

Let's take a moment to think about Peter Jennings, who sadly, passed away this weekend. My prayers and condolences to his family. Peter was a great newscaster, and will be missed by many.

i saw two movies this weekend - wedding crashers and the island. liked them both. Vince Vaughn and owen wilscon are two of my faves....and seeing them together in one movie is a bonus. i think i'd have to say though, i'd go with vince as the funnier of the two in this movie. his quick banter is just hilarious.

the island was really good - i hear it's not doing so well, which is a bummer. it's really clever, and ewan mcgregor and scarlett johansson do a great job. the premise gets you thinking.....
