Heather Locklear and Richie Sambora are totes the new the new Bruce and Demi: even though they're divorced, they're having Thanksgiving together along with their daughter Ava and Locklear's boyfriend Jack Wagner. • They're no Speidi, but Jason Lee and his longtime girlfriend Ceren Alkac are also married. The couple has a baby girl together who was born over the summer. • SATC star Cynthia Nixon is P.O'd at NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg for "caving to wealthy white parents and exiling the thriving Center School from the upper floor of P.S. 199," NYMag.com says. "Both the mayor and the chancellor should abide by their own, oft-stated rule: If it ain't broke, don't fix it," Nixon wrote in an op-ed with artist Kara Walker in today's Daily News.

Celebrity Family Feud: Remember When Jason Lee Used To Be Cool?

Tracie — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 12:00:00 EDT

The cast of My Name Is Earl was on Celebrity Family Feud last night and they appeared in character, which made for kind of a cringe-fest. It's annoying when actors are really actor-y, even though it's their job. I know he's got a family and mouths to feed, but watching Jason Lee yuk it up in this over-the-top way in a nonfiction setting made me wonder what the hell happened to that cute skater kid who didn't seem to take this nonsense too seriously? And then I was like, oh, right, Scientology! Scientology is what happened to that cute skater kid. Clip above.

But I figured that might be too much drama, you know — those girls love their scenes. And I provide enough of that!" [Variety]<

James doesn't plan to press charges because "It's part of the experience." [The Star]
He also says: "I'm just pleased I got to see her. She did a great act. Not everyone can say they have been hit by Amy Winehouse." [The Sun]

Just kidding, I have six." [MySpace, via People]
"When I said that I make out with dudes, there was a slight sense of sexual rebellion in that. I probably even made it a bigger deal than it was. If I was gay and I saw people playing with it, being ambiguous, I don't really know how I would feel. I look back at Elvis [who appropriated black music] and I'm like, 'Was Elvis a [bleep]?'" — Pete Wentz, naturally. [Page Six]
Gossip Girl's Blake Lively swears she is not like Paris Hilton: "Since I have a dog and blond hair, that must mean we're alike. It's a dumb thing to say. I don't think that makes us similar. I don't know her, but I don't like being compared to anyone by somebody who doesn't know me. I'm my own person. I don't go to clubs, I don't party, I don't dance on tables and I don't like sex tapes." [Page Six]
