--Weddingshowerapalooza for Eva Longoria...
--Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty has defended actor Richard Gere after his public show of affection sparked protests in India. Gere swept the popular actress into his arms and kissed her several times during an AIDS-awareness event last weekend. The action has outraged Indians, who feel Gere went too far in a country where such public displays of affection are largely taboo. Angry crowds burned effigies of Gere during demonstrations last Monday after photographs of him embracing and kissing Shetty appeared on the front pages of India's leading national newspapers. But Shetty has defended Gere, saying, "What he did was very sweet. It was all in good humor. He especially told me to tell the media that he didn't want to hurt any Indian sensibilities." And she admits the actor has apologized "profusely" to her following the kiss.
--Paris Hilton was ordered Tuesday to appear in court May 4 for allegedly violating her probation in a reckless driving case by driving with a suspended driver's license. City prosecutors are seeking to revoke Hilton's probation on grounds that she violated its conditions, which could result in a sentence of up to 90 days in jail.
--Chloe Sevigny bares her wild teen years in the introduction she's penned to an old high school pal's new memoir about growing up in the Connecticut suburbs. In Lesley Arfin's "Dear Diary," due in June, the "Big Love" star writes: "She was the first person I smoked cigarettes and pot with, got drunk with, snuck out of the house with, got arrested at the mall with, drove underage with." Sevigny adds, "The people from Darien thought of me as a junkie or a lesbian. They weren't mean to me, but they weren't nice, either." (She is so odd...bring on new Big Love episodes, though!)
--Are Calista and Harrison engaged? (Hard to believe they've been together for 5 years...)
--Don Imus' racist crack about the Rutgers' women's basketball squad has led to a windfall for team coach Vivian Stringer, who hired lit agent Laurie Bernstein over a year ago to sell her autobiography. Now Crown has signed a lucrative deal with Stringer, "an incredible woman with an extraordinary life story," Crown spokesman Tina Constable told New Jersey's Star Ledger. Stringer, the third all-time winning women's college basketball coach, has survived the paralysis of a daughter from meningitis, the death of her husband at 47 - and the crude taunt of a cowboy shock jock.
--Rachel McAdams, 30, and Ryan Gosling, 26, are spending some time apart. “It’s a break, not a breakup,” says one source, who adds that while McAdams is very dependent on Gosling, the recent Oscar nominee wants some distance so he can focus on his sizzling career. “It’s a pivotal moment for him,” says the insider. Still, McAdams “is taking it really hard because Ryan is everything to her,” says a source. (Oh, I'm not worried. Noah and Allie took some time apart, too...Ha).
--Courtney is starting to look more and more like a tranny:
Random Thought of the Day: So, how are you guys liking the season of "Sopranos" so far? Likey? No likey? Too slow? Want AJ to die a slow and painful death? Oh, maybe that's just me. Ha. Predictions?
