Britney says she hasn’t partied that much

with all the tabloids and magazines following the exploits of Britney Spears and her BFF Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and others at many of the hot spots lately, Britney felt that she needed to defend herself.

Spears claims that “It’s been so long since I’ve been out on the town with friends. It’s also been 2 years since I’ve even celebrated my birthday,” Spears, who marked her 25th birthday on Saturday with a bash at Mr. Chow’s restaurant in Beverly Hills, writes on her Web site.

“Every move I make at this point has been magnified more than I expected, and I probably did take my new found freedom a bit too far,” Spears writes. “Anyway, thank God for Victoria Secrets’ new underwear line! I look forward to a new year, new music and a new me.”

Wait, what’s that about Victoria Secrets new underwear line? Last I heard Britney hasn’t been wearing any undies.

Aniston and Vaughn split?

by Tricia

It’s official. In statements to People Magazine reps, Stephen Huvane and John Pisani, for Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn said that they have decided to part ways. They said “After Jennifer’s trip to London several weeks ago, Jennifer and Vince mutually agreed to end their relationship but continue to be good friends today.” The pair had been dating since filming the movie The Break Up in Chicago during the summer of 2005.

There’s been speculation for some time that the two were cooling off. Vaughn has been in London since September filming Fred Claus, and Aniston has been working in L.A. and New York.

You might remember that in October Vince Vaughn threatened to sue several tabloids that had alleged he was seen kissing a mystery blonde and had ended his relationship with Aniston. The pair both made efforts to dispel these rumors – particularly Aniston who went on Oprah on October 11th to say that the two were still together.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I liked the two of them as a couple – hopefully they’ll end up getting back together. If they don’t, I wonder how long it will be before a mysterious blonde begins to appear on Vinces arm?

What do you think of this news? Did you think their relationship was going to last?

Serrano used industrial grade silicone in his anti-wrinkle injections

This is going to cause a wrinkle in the lives of a few wealthy Beverly Hills residents lives. An Argentinian doctor who once used the homes of the wealthy to inject clients with an illicit anti-wrinkle chemical has been sentenced to 18 months in federal prison.

Daniel Tomas Fuente Serrano was sentenced to two years in prison. Prosecutors for the case say he gave the illegal injections at various places, including parties, where up to 30 wealthy clients sipped cocktails and were injected with silicone smuggled into the U.S. Oh great and injection party. Is that what they do in Hollywood? Clients of Serranos are said to have included Lionel Richie, Richies ex-wife Diane and Shawn King, the wife of CNN talk show host Larry King.

Serrano charged his clients thousands of dollars for the injections, yet he wasn’t licensed to practice medicine in the United States. The injections consisted of industrial grade silicone used to lubricate auto parts, as well as medical grade silicone which is often used for eye surgeries but has not been approved for the treatment of wrinkles.

Serrano admitted to having given illegal injections from 2001 until November of 2004, earning more than 1.6 million US. Last year he plead guilty to several counts including conspiracy and the receipt of illegally imported merchandise.

It’s not surprising that some of Serrano’s clients have reported that they’ve developed problems after the injections. Diane Richie has been charged with aiding and abetting Serrano.

A retired judge will mediate a meeting between Michael Richards and the four black men that he targeted in a tirade of racial slurs during a comedy club performance.

Michael is slated to apologize in person to the men. The judge will also help determine if other actions should take place to resolve the matter such as a cash settlement. A time and place for the meeting has yet to be set.

Lawyer, Howard J. Rubenstein, who represents Richards says “My client Michael hopes to put it behind him,”

Attorney Gloria Allred said Richards should meet with her clients “to hear the pain that he inflicted on them and to apologize to them.”

Richards, who played the wacky neighbor Kramer on “Seinfeld,” has been on a campaign of contrition since his outburst at the Laugh Factory nightclub.

There seems to be a rise in celebrity alcohol tragedies lately doesn’t there?

The latest is Lindsay lohan, but in the last while we’ve heard stories about Mel Gibson, Robin Williams, Danny DeVito and even George Clooney. Then there’s Britney and Paris.

All of these celebs want us to take them seriously and believe in their causes, but then they go and act like children when the camera lights come on. If you want us to believe in you and watch your films and help you stay on top then you need to start acting mature and taking care of yourselves.
