Hollywood actress Jennifer Love Hewitt believes bosses at fashion retail chain H+M have done Kate Moss "a favor" by dumping her as the company's spokesmodel. Hewitt believes the action will prompt Moss to get help.

She says, "I have to say that I think maybe they did her a favor, and maybe she'll actually get help. Coffee's one thing, but coke is another. It's not something you want to really have as a problem in your life." "I think we have to kind of stop rewarding bad behavior and actually start helping people."

"You know when you're out in public that there are gonna be people who watching you, so you should just try to act like somebody that you would want to be proud of if they got a photo of you. Not that you should always feel like you're always working, but it goes with the job, I think."

--Oh, stuff it Love. Get off your holier-than-thou high horse. Oh wait...I guess it wouldn't be a "high" horse.

Everyone (including myself) was pretty hard on Kevin Federline for smoking all the time around then-pregnant Britney. However, let's keep the flack consistent. It doesn't appear that BennyPoo has much respect for Jen in that regard either. Case in point:

Saying that she hopes to sit down with her estranged husband Charlie Shanian and "talk about all this in detail," Tori Spelling admits to People in its new issue: "I went into the marriage with the best intentions, hopes and dreams. I feel that I've really disappointed people. I've disappointed everyone who came to my wedding. I'm disappointed in myself." She adds: "I don't know exactly what happened and when things started to go wrong."

Since early August, the former Beverly Hills, 90210 star, 32, has been living apart from Shanian, 36, a writer-actor she met in Los Angeles in 2002, when she starred in the play he co-wrote (Maybe Baby, It's You). The pair married at a $1-million wedding in July of last year.

In a conversation with People on Sept. 16, the actress expressed uncertainty and sorrow as she talked about a day she hoped would never come. For his part, Shanian declined to comment about the breakup. But according to a source close to Spelling, by the beginning of August, when she was in Ottawa to film the TV movie Mind over Murder, she and Shanian were "living separate lives."

Away on the set for three weeks, "She realized the relationship was not right for her," says her friend. She also realized something else: She was developing feelings for costar Dean McDermott. The actor, 38, who according to a source was also in a "marriage that was not working," was equally drawn to Spelling, and the two became romantically involved. "It just happened," says Spelling's friend. "No one meant any harm to anyone. You can't help who you fall in love with and who you're right with."

Still, her friends insist, the romance between Spelling and McDermott – who filed for divorce on Sept. 9 from his wife of 12 years, Mary Jo Eustace – had nothing to do with Spelling's breakup. "The marriage was over a long time ago," says a friend of hers. "They never should have married in the first place."

Late screen siren Marilyn Monroe was a suspected communist and tracked by the FBI.

Newly-released documents reveal Monroe was just a number of stars the Federal Bureau of Investigation kept files on - including John Lennon, Frank Sinatra, The Beach Boys, Louis Armstrong, Albert Einstein, Lucille Ball and Liberace.

The Some Like It Hot actress was targeted after she applied for visa to visit Russia. She was then tracked meeting a communist group during a holiday to Mexico organized by Sinatra. Sinatra aroused suspicion because the FBI were tipped off he had attended sex parties with President John F. Kennedy. Lennon was added to the list when agents deduced he planned to disrupt the Republican National Convention in 1973, but struck him off because his drug habits rendered him incapable of being a revolutionary.

At Tuesday night's Teen Vogue Young Hollywood party, rivals Lindsay Lohan and Hilary Duff divided guests into two factions on opposite sides of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel pool, then exchanged ominous glares all night long.

"Lindsay came to the event to support her sister Aliana, who was featured in the Young Hollywood issue," said Lohan's rep. Duff's rep scoffed: "Hilary and her sister, Haylie, got there at 9 p.m. and stayed 40 minutes. They didn't even see Lindsay."

On Lohan's side: Kirsten Dunst, the incredible shrinking Nicole Richie, and Richie's fiancé, DJ AM. On Team Duff: Kimberly Stewart, Duff's boyfriend, Joel Madden, Haylie Duff, Lohan's ex Wilmer Valderrama, Greek shipping heir (and Mary-Kate Olsen boy toy) Stavros Niarchos and the "Laguna Beach" kids.

An eyewitness reports: "There was a lot of tension, a lot of evil looks. Nobody went into the other's territory." Says an insider: "Lindsay called Hilary and was like, 'Enough?' And Hilary just said, 'No f-ing way,' and hung up on her. Hilary's a wolf in sheep's clothing, so Linds is done."

Mick Jagger is considering playing former Czech president Vaclav Havel in a new film about his life.

Havel told a newspaper that he and Jagger had discussed the idea and that the singer was really keen. Civil rights activist Havel, 68, is a close friend of the Rolling Stone, who co-owns the Jagged Films Production Company that has produced movies such as Enigma starring Kate Winslet.

Havel said it was not the first time a film about his life had been discussed. He was approached by Jane Fonda 15 years ago with a similar idea. "She wanted to make a film about me and my former wife Olga, with her playing Olga. It's probably a good thing that nothing came of it," he said.

--What musical mentions Vaclav Havel in a song? Iceman can't answer.

The votes are in - and John O'Hurley has bested Kelly Monaco to win the "Dancing with the Stars" title many thought he deserved in the first place. "I'm very rarely beyond words, and I am right now," O'Hurley said after the results were announced Thursday on the ABC show.

In a rematch, O'Hurley and his professional dancing partner, Charlotte Jorgensen, bested Monaco and hers, Alec Mazo. Monaco beat O'Hurley in the July 6 season finale of the show, but the win over the popular O'Hurley prompted skepticism over the voting process.

The victor of the rematch was chosen purely by viewers - and co-host Tom Bergeron said the winner and loser were separated by just 1 percent of the votes.

It has always been much more than a department store. It's the magical place where parents brought their children to see the windows at Christmastime, where those children grew and did the same with their kids — stopping, of course, to visit the one true Santa Claus. It is Marshall Field's. Or simply "Field's" to everybody in Chicago.

For longer than anyone can remember, Marshall Field's has been one of the few constants in an ever-changing city. With its famous clock, the store that was built in stages between 1892 and 1914 is as much a part of the city's landscape as Wrigley Field and Sears Tower.

On Tuesday, Federated Department Stores Inc., said it is planning to change to Macy's the name of all 62 Marshall Field's, including the one on State Street that dates back to 1892. And if it seems like just another merger or name change that happens all the time with very little fuss — even in Chicago, there wasn't much noise when the White Sox's Comiskey Park became U.S. Cellular Field — to those who grew up with Marshall Field's this is different.

"It's so awful I can't even believe it," said Tracy Kepler, a 37-year-old attorney who can recall in vivid detail time spent at the store as a child, including the trip to see the windows every Christmas Eve day, followed by a meal in the Walnut Room.

--I love eating at the Fields Walnut Room. I'm not a native to Chicago, and this still just seems wrong to even a mere visitor like myself.

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline's new bundle of joy, Sean Preston Federline, is now safe at home in his new Malibu nursery.

People magazine, on newsstands Friday, reveals more new details about Britney's delivery, as Spears and Federline showed up at Santa Monica UCLA Medical Center early Sept. 14 with Spears's mom, Lynn, and sister Jamie in tow. Originally, Britney had been scheduled for a C-section the next day, but the surgery was moved up after she began experiencing early contractions. With her husband at her side, Spears, 23, was wheeled into the operating room, and both parents were crying when the baby was born. Sean Preston weighed in at 6 lbs. 11 oz.

Federline, 27, who held his wife's hand throughout the operation, "was very affectionate toward her," says a source. After the delivery, the new mother was moved to the maternity ward's VIP suite, where, the source also says, "The baby never once left her side."

Now home in Malibu, Sean has a brand-new nursery in Mom and Dad's just-renovated, 9,000-sq.-ft. crib. And he already has a substantial wardrobe to supplement the gifts Britney got at her Aug. 6 Moroccan-themed baby shower.

On one visit to Kitson Kids on Aug. 2, "Britney was completely in baby mode," owner Fraser Ross said. Among her purchases: onesies and a cashmere sweater with a faux Mommy tattoo on the sleeve – to go with such gifts from friends and family as a pair of Yo My Booties angora booties, a tunic and a hat from an assistant and some T-shirts from a pal.

If you thought the sight of a scantily clad Paris Hilton practically fornicating with a hamburger and writhing around with a water hose in that Carl's Jr. commercial was hot, the heiress has a few words for you: You ain't seen nothing yet.

Hilton, who has been working on her debut solo album with famed beatmaker Scott Storch says her first music video will set TV screens on fire. She even wants to recruit the same director, Chris Applebaum, who helmed the clip that some TV watchdog groups labeled "soft-core porn."

"It will [definitely have] a lot of sexiness," the 24-year-old socialite said recently. "If I did a [fast-food] commercial that hot, imagine what I can do with my own video."

Rapper Jay-Z is still refusing to speak to the press about his relationship with Beyonce Knowles - despite dating the Destiny's Child beauty for three years.

Jay-Z is notoriously private about his life with Knowles, and he insists that side of him will never change. He tells British magazine GQ, "Right. We're not going to talk about that at all." "It's self-explanatory. I don't talk about it. Certain things you have to keep private."

Ashlee Simpson's ex-boyfriend Ryan Cabrera is hoping to boost the love lives of others with a new dating reality show. The 23-year-old singer will host the new MTV show Score, where contenders will win dates based on their songwriting skills.

He explains, "Basically, two aspiring singer/songwriters have one day to write a song. They're trying to win a date with girl and so they have got to write the song during the day, perform it that night live, and she picks who she wants to go on a date with based on their songs." "I'm the host and I help them write and then I perform a song at the end of every episode. She doesn't get to see the guys (until she makes her selection)."

When Sheryl Crow sashayed into Versace's grand relaunch party in London on Monday, the singer couldn't help but gush about the moment fiancé Lance Armstrong popped the question.

"He rowed me out into the middle of a lake in the mountains and asked me to get married," Crow, 43, said. "It was very romantic."

She also showed off her huge platinum-set diamond ring that Armstrong, the 34-year-old Tour de France champ, gave to her. "He picked out the ring himself and had it designed. It's absolutely gorgeous," said Crow, adding that they're already planning a spring wedding, likely in the U.S.

Heather Mills McCartney's campaign against Jennifer Lopez took another step up when she discovered the diva wears fake eyelashes made from mink.

Animal rights campaigner Mills McCartney is disgusted by revelations that Lopez sports a pair of false eyelashes made from real mink in her the video for the new song, "Hold You Down."

Mills McCartney, who works closely with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, is heavily embroiled in a high-profile campaign against J.Lo, and recently threatened to stalk her unless she stops wearing fur.

1 I love how PETA fanatics are all into restricting others' rights (to wear fur) but God-forbid anyone try to stop them from "lawful assembly" or "freedom of speech." Besides, have you ever met a mink? I have--MEAN bastards.

2 I'm not much of a fan of wearing fur or Jennifer Lopez. So for once, I'll side with PETA.

3 p.s. Mink are raised on ranches just like the meat we non-vegs. eat and the hides we wear in our shoes, handbags, briefcases, and car interiors. I remember Paul McCartney saying he'd stop wearing leather when a "suitable substitute" was made. Just sayin'.

4 I'm wondering how many animal-based products Heather uses in a given day. Granted, mink eyelashes are a bit much, but how much better a steward of the earth is she?

5 I prefer my PETA better: People Eating Tasty Animals. I like in the article "she was determined to target her [J.Lo], whatever the consequences." Hello Mrs. McCartney that'll get you in big legal trouble, but hey if you want to perform actions that ignorant go right ahead.

Posted by: Brian D. at September 22, 2005 02:26 PM (NRoG6)

6 She's going to stalk her??!! I wonder what color the leather seats are in all of Mrs. McCartney's fancy cars.

8 Yep, that's what gets me. Stalking, assault, and the destruction of other people's property are illegal actions. Wearing fur-isn't. I'm against trapping and I'm not big on killing wild animals for fur but I've shot a couple of coyotes in my day (popular hood trim) and if they were after your livestock or pets, you would too.

This would have been really cool to see:

The New York City skyline was pretty in pink 2 nights ago thanks to City in Pink, the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation's tribute to breast cancer survivors and those who died of the disease.

Nearly 20 buildings across the city — including the Empire State Building, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, The Shops at Columbus Circle/Time Warner Center and the Woolworth Building — will be ablaze with pink lights every night until Sunday, making this the biggest lighting campaign in the group's history.

"The idea was to serve as reminder of breast cancer," says Nicole Rubin, executive director of the Greater New York City Affiliate of the foundation. "It's a way of showing support."

The helmet that Robby Gordon threw at Michael Waltrip was temporarily pulled off the online auction site eBay on Wednesday after bidding exceeded $10 million.

The site ended the auction because it was unable to verify the legitimacy of the bids and because Gordon didn't have the proper documentation showing that he planned to donate the proceeds of the sale to charity, eBay spokesman Hani Durzy said.

The helmet was re-listed late Wednesday night with the assistance of AuctionCause, a company known for helping in fund-raising efforts with experience in prequalifying bidders.

Gordon listed the helmet on eBay on Tuesday and planned to donate all proceeds to the Harrah's Employee Relief Fund, a charity designed to aid Harrah's employees affected by Hurricane Katrina. Bidding was spirited all day and the helmet was listed at more than $100,000.
