Angelina Jolie is in
the hospital in the South of France to prepare for the birth of her twins. How come even a hospital in France sounds better than a basement in Brooklyn? •
Spencer Pratt publicly apologized to
Mary Kate Olsen, thus ending their entirely one-sided
feud. "I apologize for getting caught up in trash talking, but she brought up an emotional subject when she mentioned the soccer stuff," Pratt attack told
Us. • Want to dislike
Paris Hilton even more than you already did? Peep this quote from her about new beau
Benji Madden: "He is going to get [a tattoo] of me but he won't let me get one. He doesn't like tattoos on women. He thinks I look pure." Guess he didn't catch the sex tape then, eh? [

- The new issue of Vanity Fair isn't out yet, but Miley Cyrus is already warning fans that she's mortified of the semi-topless pictures of herself inside. "I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed," she says. A starlet's first shameful shoot is a tale as old as time and a rite of passage, no? [Us Magazine]
- The Disney Channel, which airs Miley's hit show, Hannah Montana, says: "Unfortunately... A situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines." [People]
- Ooooh here's a shot. Provocative? It's Annie Leibovitz, of course. She's really been controversial lately. [E!]
- Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt did attend the White House Correspondents dinner on Saturday night. They sat at Fortune magazine's table. Other tidbits from that night: Colin Firth couldn't get into the Bloomberg party; Kal Penn (aka Kumar of Harold & Kumar) hung with Salman Rushie and claims he doesn't actually smoke weed; Pete Wentz shouted, "I just want to thank my girlfriend's vagina!" before he started DJing. Stay classy, D.C.! [Page Six]

This is so
sad. David Beckham gave his sweat-soaked jersey to two young boys after a Los Angeles Galaxy game at Hawaii's Aloha stadium. Now, the boys' parents are duking it out in court to see who gets possession of the jersey. "My son got the shirt, their kid started trying to pry it away," said
Wilfred Ho, who is the mother of one of the boys. The entire thing is so unbearably tacky. •
Benji Madden ran over a paparazzo's foot last night leaving a club with
Paris Hilton in the passenger seat. Benji drove away, and the photographer has filed a
hit and run report. These tools really need to get drivers when they go out to clubs. It would save them a lot of money and legal wrangling. • Yesterday

Shudder. [TMZ]

oh, yoko
Over on the gossip blog "A Socialite's Life," editors are asking if
Paris Hilton is
"pulling a Yoko" with her new relationship to
Good Charlotte's
Benji Madden. First off,
mentioning Benji Madden and John Lennon in the same sentence is borderline blasphemous. But even more gratingly, for years "Yoko" has been a shorthand for a "controlling" girlfriend or wife whose association with a rock star broke up a band and ruined everything. Not only is the maligning of Yoko is sexist, since it's not really her fault that the Beatles dissolved, it needs to be said that women aren't the only significant others who muck up creative production. Which is why I think there needs to be a male "Yoko" equivalent. I nominate "
Bobby Brown" as in, "Bill Clinton really needs to back off on Hillary's campaign trail or he's going to be a total Bobby Brown."

Lisa Marie Presley is
suing the
Daily Mail for writing an article mocking her weight gain. She says the article "forced" her to announce her pregnancy." • Speaking of weight gain,
Valerie Bertinelli said she embarked on her
Jenny Craig journey because
Victoria Principal implied she was chubby. "She asked point-blank how much I weighed... Nervously, I told her, 168, and it almost took her breath away. It was the kind of politely horrified reaction that had turned me into a Hollywood hermit." • Paris Hilton has been wearing a ring on her ring finger with the initials
"B.M." branded on it. Some say it stands for Paris's new flame
Benji Madden, but in our hearts it will always stand for
bowel movement. [

Living Lohan, will debut on E! this summer and revolves around Ali's attempt to jumpstart her showbiz career. • Is
