Hillary Duff, still pregnant, has been dropped from the cast of The Story Of Bonnie and Clyde. Not coincidentally, the decision to let her go came right around the time she announced she was expecting.
Duff was to play Bonnie Parker, who was not, as far as we know, showing a baby bump when she went on her bank-robbing spree. Producers, who are also recasting Clyde due to more scheduling conflicts, say the split was amicable: “Hilary won’t be available [i.e., not pregnant] until next June. If we could wait we would.” [TMZ]

Paula Deen responds to Anthony Bourdain‘s comments about her cooking, that he believes is “Dangerous to America”:
“Anthony Bourdain needs to get a life. You don’t have to like my food, or Rachael’s, Sandra’s and Guy’s. But it’s another thing to attack our character. I wake up every morning happy for where I am in life. … You know, not everybody can afford to pay $58 for prime rib or $650 for a bottle of wine. My friends and I cook for regular families who worry about feeding their kids and paying the bills … It wasn’t that long ago that I was struggling to feed my family, too.”

All Selena wants to be now is friends. She doesn’t feel Justin is quite mature enough yet to be in a long-term, stable relationship.” [Contact Music]
