Hugh Hefner: With Crystal Gone, 'Anna Is My Best Girl'

Hugh Hefner certainly doesn't waste any time. Less than two weeks after being dumped by fiancee Crystal Harris, the Playboy founder hasmoved on with Playmate Anna Sophia Berglund, and he's not holding his feelings back.

"With Crystal gone, Anna is my best girl," Hefnertweeted to a fan who asked if he was dating the Playmate, who was Miss January 2011. He also added that Berglund, 25, is one of Harris' friends, and that "Anna is really one in a million."

However, the almost-Mrs. Hefner doesn't think Berglund and Hef are an item.

"Nope!" Harris tweeted to a fan who asked if Hef was dating Berglund. "Shes just over there regulating making sure Hef ends up w a good girl :)"
Sounds like some mixed signals to us.

Harris infamously broke off her engagement to Hefner less than a week before they were set to tie the knot earlier this month, reportedly leaving the Playboy mogul "heartbroken."

Elizabeth Hurley Locking Lips With Aussie Cricketer Shane Warne in London

Well, that didn’t take long! Newly divorced Elizabeth Hurley was spotted grabbing lunch with her new beau, Aussie cricket star Shane Warne.

James Spader in Talks to Return to 'The Office'

James Spader, new boss of Dunder Mifflin? Maybe, according to Entertainment Weekly.

The 'Boston Legal' star is reportedly in talks to join 'The Office,' but not as Scranton branch manager -- as the Dunder Mifflin/Sabre CEO. 'Harry's Law' actress Kathy Bates currently plays the paper and printer company honcho, but won't be able to reprise her 'Office' role and star on 'Harry's Law' at the same time.

"In the finale, he kicked ass," a source close to the show told EW. "He was so funny and had this weird energy. We didn't want to pass it up."

While no scripts have been written for 'The Office' Season 8 and Spader has yet to sign a deal, the likely scenario according to EW is this: Spader's character is hired as branch manager, but quickly decides the job is too small for him. He then convinces corporate to give him the CEO gig. That would leave the branch manager position open for either an internal or external hire ... and we're back to square one.
Bates guest starred in a handful of episodes, but Spader would appear on more regular basis.

'Doctor Who' veteran Catherine Tate emerged as the front-runner for the job, according to reports following her Season 7 finale appearance, but she's doing a play in London until September. The Spader scenario could feasibly give her enough time to wrap the stage production and then join 'The Office' as the branch manager.

Prince William and Kate at Military Ceremony

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended a formal military ceremony in Windsor, England, on Saturday morning to award medals to soldiers of the Irish Guards for their service in Afghanistan.

Back in April, of course, Prince William wore the distinctive red uniform of the Irish Guards when he married Kate Middleton at Westminster Abbey.

As part of this weekend's military parade, the newlyweds shook hands and paused to chat with hundreds of the troops, who lined up for the honors.

"I can only imagine what the campaign medals you receive today must mean to you," said William.

Kate, dressed smartly in head-to-toe navy blue, remarked that she was pleased to be involved because the regiment is "so close" to her husband's heart.

The BBC praised Kate's "relaxed" demeanor, in her first military appearance as a member of the royal family. She and William, who was named Colonel of the Irish Guards in February, also met privately before the event with the families of three fallen servicemen to deliver posthumous medals.
In a matter of days, William and Kate will begin an 11-day tour of North America, including a stay in Los Angeles. The Duke celebrated his 29th birthday earlier this week.

Jennifer Aniston Brings Beau to 'Inside the Actors Studio' Taping.

Jennifer Aniston is the latest celebrity to sit down with James Lipton for a taping of 'Inside the Actors Studio'--and she brought current beau Justin Theroux to the big event!

Aniston taped the show Thursday night in front of an audience filled with fans and acting students--but she seemed to only have eyes for Theroux, according to UsMagazine.com. The 42-year-old actress kept stealing glances, even winking one time, at Theroux who sat in the front row.

"Whenever there would be a lull, she would just look at him and give him a wink and go back to what she was doing," second-year Actors Studio MFA student Christina Schudel told PEOPLE after the taping.

She even called him out, among others, as people she "loved" working with over the course of her career.

During her chat with Lipton, Aniston talked about sex scenes and her relationships with her old 'Friends' co-stars. "They are miserable," Aniston said of sex scenes. "It's your total figure in front of a lot of people. And you have to do so many takes. I wonder if they did that on purpose!"

Celebrities Push to Pass Marriage Equality Bill in New York.

It certainly has been a groundbreaking yet nail biting week for marriage equality in New York as same-sex marriage advocates have come within one Republican Senate vote to pass the marriage equality bill -- although the vote still has yet to take place.

But the hesitation to bring the bill to a vote -- on behalf of Republicans -- is not for the lack of trying and persuasion from our favorite LGBT supporting celebrities.

"I'd sure love to get married," Neil Patrick Harris tweeted Friday evening. "Please, NY Senate, vote in favor of marriage equality today. My family would really appreciate it."
The LGBT community's resident mother monster, Lady Gaga, has also been fervently tweeting about the potential passing of the bill and urging her fans to call their local senators and ask them to vote yes to legalize gay marriage.

Michael Jackson, Two Years Has Passed Since His Death. ( Beat it Video )

Today marks two years since the shocking death of Michael Jackson, and unsurprisingly, controversy surrounding the singer has hardly died down.

In the involuntary manslaughter trial of Dr. Conrad Murray, accused of administering the pop icon's fatal dose of meds, the defendant is allegedly maintaining his innocence so adamantly,TMZ reports that Murray wants to refuse any plea offer, including deals with no jail time.

Behind the scenes, Murray's team just won court approval to view hours of outtakes from the MJ documentary 'This Is It.' In gainingaccess to the top-secret footage, the defense seeks proof that Jackson was unwell in the days before his 2009 cardiac arrest.

As for Jackson's kids, Prince, Paris and Blanket were spotted taking in a movie on Friday. The three are in the care of their grandmother, Katherine Jackson, and reportedly thriving.

And outspoken as always about her family's dramas, 'Celebrity Apprentice' contestant LaToya Jackson has been making the rounds promoting her upcoming book. In 'Starting Over,' she insists Murray is merely the fall guy in a broader conspiracy plot carried out to kill her brother.
"This is definitely something that was premeditated, that they had planned to do, and they planned to take my brother out, and my brother knew it, and that's why my brother told me repeatedly....that this was going to happen to him," she said in a recent interview, according to CBS News. "He explained to me, 'It's because of my catalog.'" (Michael Jackson co-owned the lucrative Sony/ATV catalog, including Beatles music.)

Pippa Middleton getting offer from Usher to model lingerie line. ( photos )

Usher has an offer he hopes Pippa Middleton can’t refuse.

The R&B star wants the world’s most talked about woman to be the face (and presumably the body) of his new lingerie line.

“I don’t think there’s a more beautiful, more stunning, more talked-about woman in the world at the moment,” Usher told Look magazine.

Usher may be right about the former, and is definitely right about the latter.

Usher hasn’t approached P. Middy yet, but it sounds like he’s getting close.

“I’m going to be approaching her in the next few weeks and setting up a meeting this summer,” Usher said. “The great thing about her is that she would be a global brand. Everybody knows her now, she would be perfect. I am sure everybody is trying to sign her up and she won’t be cheap, but she has the looks and the popularity to really establish a new product."

Actually, Pippa has already shown how much attention she can get for wearing some women’s underwear.
Remember This Picture?

Reggie Bush Dating Kim Kardashian Look Alike.

It’s a case life imitating art–or life imitating reality TV.

Or something. It’s so confusing.

Kim Kardashian’s ex, Reggie Bush, is now dating the woman who bears such a striking resemblance to the reality star, she was cast as a Kim Kardashian-like character in an Old Navy ad.

Model Melissa Molinaro scored a hit last February with “Super C-U-T-E” on YouTube, which has been viewed almost two million times. 

The video has Molinaro’s very Kardashian-ish character declaring, “This is real life, I’m not posing for a magazine, don’t ask me any questions until I’ve had my caffeine.”

Josh Duhamel Asks Fans and Celebrities to Support Flooded North Dakota Hometown.

LOS ANGELES – Josh Duhamel, the television and film actor known for his roles in the "Transformers" movie franchise, rallied his fans and famous friends Friday to support his hometown of Minot, North Dakota, which is battling a devastating flood.

As the city of 41,000 prepared to face massive flooding earlier this week, Duhamel began frequently posting about the disaster on Twitter, urging other celebrities to raise awareness and soliciting donations for the Red Cross.

Residents were evacuating Minot on Friday as the Souris River flooded parts of the city and officials said floodwaters were likely to rise higher than previously expected.

The crest was now predicted to reach 1,564.5 feet above sea level by early Sunday afternoon, which would break a 130-year-old record by more than six feet, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing National Weather Service data. The flooding could put some parts of the city under as much as 15 feet of water, the Journal said.

Judge Spares Linday Lohan From The Jail Time.

Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan will not go to jail despite testing positive for alcohol use last week because a Superior Court judge says she was not required to submit to controlled substance testing after February 25.

Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner said during a hearing Thursday that she did not think Lohan violated her probation by testing positive for alcohol during a recent test.

Sautner says the court record is ambiguous about whether or not Lohan was ordered to refrain from drinking.

The 24-year-old actress arrived Thursday for the meeting with Judge Sautner, who said that Lohan's prior judge, Elden Fox, only required substance testing from January 3- February 25, TMZ reports. The Probation Dept. will no longer test Lohan for drugs or alcohol since there is no court order allowing it.

Arriving at the conference shortly before 10 a.m. PST Thursday, a solemn-faced Lohan walked past photographers and members of the media. Wearing a blue button-down shirt and dark trousers, she covered her face with sunglasses and tied her blonde hair back in a ponytail.

Oprah to Receive Honorary Doctorate From African University Troubled With Race Relations.

BLOEMFONTEIN, South Africa -- A central South African university known for fraught race relations is welcoming a visit by Oprah Winfrey as an acknowledgment of the progress it has made toward tolerance.

On Friday, Winfrey is to receive an honorary doctorate from the University of the Free State, bringing international media to normally quiet Bloemfontein, the farming center where the century-old university is based.

In 2006, four white Free State students made a video humiliating black cleaning women and expressing opposition to integrating the historically white school. Jonathan Jansen, who in 2009 became the university's first black rector, has been credited with pushing for change.


Nadipha Jacobs, a black student, says the university is slowly becoming more tolerant, and that the visit from the world's most recognizable black businesswoman shows that.

"In many ways, I feel the university and its people have grown," said Jacobs, who started as an undergraduate in 1996 and now is a graduate student specializing in development studies.

Winfrey, who is to give a speech and take questions from students on Friday, has yet to comment on her university honor.

Turns out Justin Bieber‘s male attacker — who reportedly knocked the 17-year-old teen dream to the ground this morning outside his fragrance event at Macy’s Herald Square in NYC — was only trying to protect him as the man is now being reported as an undercover cop.

Jason Segel Is Obsessed With ‘The Muppets’: “I Could Talk About This Forever” ( trailer )

Jason Segel is a serious Muppet lover and it only makes him more lovable! The actor and co-writer of the upcoming film, The Muppets, could talk “forever” about the furry creatures.

A lot of people thought Jason’s upcoming Muppets movie was going to be an ironic version, but Jason tells Vanity Fair that is not at all the case.

“Oh, yeah. A lot of people thought I was doing it with a ‘wink wink.’ You know?” he asks. “And that wasn’t the case at all. But I think when people see the movie in November, I think they’ll be very pleased.”

And Jason knows his Muppets. But still, it’s hard for him to pick one favorite out of the original three films.

“You know, I love the original, but I like the pacing of The Muppets Take Manhattan a little better. But, I mean, they’re all so good. I mean, I could talk about this forever,” he admits. “But The Great Muppet Caper is interesting because it’s just a stand-alone story. They basically just played different characters. Kermit and Fozzie are playing twin brothers, which [laughs] is hilarious. I think the original The Muppet Movie has an amazing sweetness to it; it tells a great story of how they got together. But The Muppets Take Manhattan, with the Manhattan Melodies at the end, is the classic one for me.”
