LACHAPELLE AND J.LO GET DESPERATE

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

‘Desperate Housewives’ may be one of the worst shows on network television, but their yearly ads promoting the new season are simply out of this world.

This year’s film noir-esque promo directed by David LaChapelle offers a delicious take on the upcoming sexploits of the ladies of Wisteria Lane.

The track is off Jennifer Lopez’s forthcoming album, ‘Brave.’

Enjoy!

DON’T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU READ

A certain obese blogger who has the tendency of making up outrageous stories recently claimed that Bajan beauty Rihanna and “it” boy Shia LeBeouf were Hollywood’s latest celebrity hook-up.

But at last night’s NASCAR-hosted celebrity party at Avalon nightclub in Hollywood, the 19-year-old singer finally set the record straight: “Me and Shia, we are just friends, you know, we barely even know each other.”

So, wait a minute — does this mean Fidel Castro didn’t pass away last week either?!?

‘High School Musical 2′ star Vanessa Hudgens graces the Fall issue of Teen magazine, on sale September 4.

Some quotable quotes:

Vanessa on her relationship with Zac Efron: “I will say who I’m dating (she confesses it’s Zac), but I won’t talk about it. I just like to keep my relationships to myself.”

Vanessa on being a role model: “I’m a good kid. I’ve been brought up with very good morals and I’m not going to go out and do something I don’t want other kids to do. I love being a role model because, in Hollywood, there aren’t a lot of role models to look up to. The fact that there’s a whole bunch of good kids coming out who are now stepping into the limelight, I’m very proud of that.”

Pint-sized 15-month-old Kingston Rossdale masters the art of walking during a day out with the fam in Hawaii on Thursday.

Look ma, no hands!

While doting mother Gwen Stefani watched on, the rockin’ celebuspawn eagerly roamed and marked his new territory outside of a Maui shopping centre.

This Hollaback mama should give Britney Spears a good talking to — on a number of topics!

“I read blogs, and I hear what people are saying about me, and I think that it’s a compliment (when people say) that I’m keeping it sexy, because that’s just me. I’m an artist and that’s why I’m here, and if anyone feels different, then give it a shot and give it a listen, and you’ll see.”

- Nicole Scherzinger, the Pussycat Dolls frontwoman urges people to judge her on her talent instead of her good looks.

WHERE’S KINGSTON?

Gwen Stefani and hubby Gavin Rossdale enjoy a brief hiatus from the endless grind of touring on Wednesday with a pit stop at a local grocery store in Hawaii where the happy couple is currently vacationing.

Showing off her awe-inspiring 6-pack in a sexy black bikini top, Gwen appeared to be in good spirits as she and hubby Gavin picked up a few essentials after a day at the beach.

The ‘Wind It Up’ singer better drink up all the off time that she can. Her world tour continues in early September in Hamburg, Germany.

SMOOTH SAILING

Troubled couple Amy Winehouse and hubby Blake Fielder-Civil continue their Caribbean holiday on Wednesday with a romantic boat ride around St Lucia.

The British soulstress, who yesterday scrapped plans to perform on September’s MTV Video Music Awards due to drug and health issues, departed on the luxury liner early morning and returned to her hotel hours later.

In other news on the ‘Back To Black’ diva, British publication The Daily Star newspaper says Amy is trying for a baby.

The tabloid says: “She really believes having a baby would help them put all their troubles behind them.”

Good luck to Amy in her latest endeavour. But just remember — holding a baby in one hand and a syringe in the other ain’t as easy as it looks!

MOMZILLA!

Folks were shocked and impressed when they heard that new mom Bridget Moynahan allowed ex-boyfriend Tom Brady to join her in the delivery room after she gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. But the NYDN reports that things weren’t entirely ammicable during the short visit.

“Tom was only allowed to see the baby for a short time,” says a West Coast spy. “Bridget would not see him herself.” Moynahan’s publicist said in a statement: “Bridget is very thankful for a happy baby, excited about being a mother, and very pleased that the father, Tom Brady, was able to be there for the birth.”

But our source says: “He was only allowed to come after the baby was born. The woman would not see him, period. And she gave the baby her last name.”

As for whether a reconciliation — or even another visit with his baby — is in store any time soon? “Bridget is not giving him any slack on this at all.”

In a world filled with deadbeat dads (à la Eddie Murphy), it’s sorta disappointing that a mother would deny her baby visitation from his own father. Hell truly hath no fury like a babymama scorned.

The five-bedroom Mediterranean-style property is located in a private, gated community, and recently released pictures reveal a pastel-hued mansion surrounded by tropical gardens complete with a terrace and pool area perfect for hanging out on warm California evenings.

The perfect setting for Paris to shoot her next homemade porno!
