You know that rumor we told you yesterday about Amy Poehler being on The Office spinoff? Rumor confirmed! Poehler tells the AP: "I can kind of confirm that I will be working in some capacity on that show…I don't really have any other details yet." Tease! • Mischa Barton is talking about her DUI. "That was a low point for me. I never, ever would have thought I would be arrested…I was disappointed because it associated me with a group of girls that I would rather not be associated with." BURN! • Denise Richards went to court this morning to get an emergency order restricting ex-husband Charlie Sheen's access to their two children, TMZ reports. The judge denied the request. God, those poor, poor babies. [Us, People, TMZ]
