David Letterman ditched his strike-inspired beard last night, after saying he was “being pressured” to shave.

After getting his whiskers clipped by one barber, another lathered him up and gave him a clean shave with a straight razor.

Afterward, show guest Tom Hanks carried out a first-aid kit for a small cut above Dave’s lip.

Quipped Dave: “Shaving beards on TV — that’s what shows without writers do!”


LATE NIGHT RETURNS….WITH A BEARD!

A bearded David Letterman opened his first show in two months by walking out amid dancing girls holding picket signs for striking TV writers.Of his new beard, Dave said: “I know what you’re thinking — you think Dave looks like a cattle-drive cook.”

Letterman was joined by comic Robin Williams who teased him endlessly about the new facial hair, alternately comparing him to Gen. Robert E. Lee, a rabbi and a mullah in Iraq.

Said the 56-year-old funnyman: “My God, man, you’ve aged!”

Dave wasn’t the only late night funnyguy who made a hairy transformation as a result of the writer’s strike. Conan O’Brien debuted his fireface, revealing it was merely an act of solidarity to his writers: “That’s right, I know this looks fake. It looks like it ties on in the back, but believe it or not I actually grew a beard. Two birds, one stone. I never grew a beard in my entire life. I grew it out of solidarity for my writers, and to prove that I have some testosterone.”

Jennifer Lopez’s obsession with boxy little frocks is officially out of control!

Clad in an Alice Temperley goddess dress, the rumoured mum-to-be laughed off any jokes about the P-word.

Either chalk up or deny — the mystery is driving us insane!

But considering the fact that it took her over eight months to admit to getting married to Marc Anthony in an interview with People magazine, is it any surprise that J.Glow is staying mum?

In case you missed it, check out self-promoting celebutante and ex-con Paris Hilton on ‘The Late Show with David Letteman’ last night.

As you may recall, Paris reportedly stormed off the set in a divaesque move after Dave harassed her about her summer stay in the jail.

During the interview, an audience member screamed, “I love you Paris!” which lead wisecracking Letterman to say: “Is that somebody you met in prison?” Proving she has zero sense of humour, pouty Paris paused and said, “I didn’t come here to talk about this. That was a long time ago. Now you’re making me sad that I came.”


DAVE, OPRAH…OPRAH, DAVE…

Moments ago, Dave Letterman sat down with Oprah and her applause-happy audience to kick off the new season of ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show.’

After hugging and laughing like old friends, Oprah said: “You look so cute!”

To which Dave responded: “Here’s the problem in a nutshell. I’m standing backstage. I hear this ovation and it’s huge. In my entire life in television … I’ve never heard an ovation like that. Then the ovation continues. And continues. And now it just gets silly. … I said to a guy back there, what is Oprah doing out there? He says, she’s just standing there.”


THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL A MAKEOVER

Britney Spears is in the process of change right now and it doesn’t just stop at inner work. While she’s rehabilitating her social life, Brit-Brit is reportedly undergoing all kinds of body changing voodoo as well!

The songstress has been back and forth to Las Vegas a bunch of times in the last few weeks, supposedly for soybean anti-fat injections, which is a six week, twelve session process. Also on tap for the starlet, a nose job from the makers of Ashlee Simpson and Jennifer Aniston’s redone nasal passages, tattoo removal and, my fave, light liposuction that will change her size 6 frame to a Hollywood-acceptable size 2.

But what about her hair?! I’m hoping when this is all done she’ll have enough growth to get a nice long weave. Then I smell a big David Letterman reveal of her new bod, just in time for summer.

Can David Letterman make you stay up late Monday?

He welcomes Sen. Barack Obama, a Democratic presidential hopeful, to the ‘Late Show.’ If you don’t like Obama, there’s Oscar-winner Halle Berry. She will promote her new film ‘Perfect Stranger.’

Expect to see Obama clips all over television on Tuesday.

In the meantime, check out a few photos of gorgeous Halle arriving at the Ed Sullivan Theater earlier today.
