--Britney Spears’ stock has fallen so far that her stylist reportedly is trying to distance herself from the singer. Britt Bardo, whose clients include the likes of Kate Hudson, Jennifer Lopez and Eva Mendes, was overheard telling folks that she’s not responsible for the look of the “Oops, I Did It Again” crooner, according to In Touch Weekly. “Yes, I’ve done Britney Spears, but don’t blame me, okay?” Bardo said, reports the mag. “I make her up and she just takes everything off and does her own thing.” (She might want to call her manicurist, too...)

--Kelly Osbourne has revealed how she wants to bare all - as a Playboy covergirl. Rocker Ozzy's 22-year-old daughter has slimmed from a size 14 to a striking size 10.

--Richard Gere supports hookers. The 57-year-old star whipped up a pep rally of 10,000 sex workers in Mumbai, India, this week, getting them to chant, "No condoms, no sex!" at an AIDS awareness event. Gere, who famously ran off with a call girl played by Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman," said: "Before, there was a total lack of knowledge among sex workers about HIV . . . Now there is a radical change. When sex workers speak of condoms as a norm, it is a powerful statement, it empowers them."

--Pop star Britney Spears is dating 25-year-old male model and actor Isaac Cohen. The star was spotted sailing around Marina Del Rey, California over the weekend on a private powerboat with her new companion. Cohen bears a striking resemblance to Spears' estranged husband Kevin Federline and dresses in a similar style, favoring low-slung jeans and a kerchief on his head. The bikini-clad mother-of-two seemed to be enjoying herself during the excursion, and the two shared several intimate moments. Cohen's agent at LA Models, Brandi Lord, has confirmed the romance to People saying the couple's relationship began "recently...within the last month. He's got a great heart and a good family, and he was raised well. He's a gentleman." Lord insists Cohen isn't after the singer for her fame adding, "(He) is not a player. (He) is not out to get a name for himself." (Um, didn't she use to say the same things about K-Fed?)
