The Hills Cast Celebrates Speidi Wedding

Say “smile for the camera so we can sell this picture to tabloids and make millions of dollars off our staged wedding” “cheese!”

We’ve already taken fans inside Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag’s April wedding.

But here’s a newly-released photo of the entire cast of The Hills at the event. It’s enough to make an MTV executive cry over the incoming cash…

Pictured above, from left to right:

The wedding ceremony will be featured on this week’s hour-long season finale of The Hills. Will you be watching it?

Kimora Lee Simmons Gives Birth, Tweets During Contractions

Kimora Lee Simmons and Djimon Hounsou are proud parents of a new baby boy.

We know this because the fashion designer actually fired off a few messages on her Twitter account during child birth.

“It’s time!! No turning back! At hospital in labor right now!!,” she wrote, topping that Tweet a short while later with: “Having contractions now! Ooo- wee! It’s like WHOA! Love & Light, KLS.”

It’s not just like “WHOA!” It’s also like: isn’t there a problem in society when, in the middle of life’s most miraculous, memorable event, one takes the time to share it with complete strangers? Isn’t there something to be said for privacy at times like this?

Thank goodness Kimora Lee Simmons took this photo of herself while in labor. Otherwise, complete strangers might have had no idea what she looks like in a hospital gown.

Susan Boyle Finishes Second on Britain’s Got Talent

And we thought Kris Allen’s victory over Adam Lambert was an upset…

World-renowned Britain’s Got Talent contestant Susan Boyle failed to win her reality competition this season, falling to dance troupe Diversity in the finals.

The acrobatic group’s performance was described by judge Simon Cowell as “utter perfection.”

“If I had to give marks on that, that is the only performance tonight I would want to give a 10 to,” Cowell said.

Do you agree? Watch Boyle’s closing rendition of “I Dreamed a Dream” below and let us know if you think Boyle should have won…

Susan Boyle, Finale Performance

Watch Diversity in action RIGHT NOW. Did they deserve the title?

Rihanna and Chris Brown: Post-Coital, Pre-Beating Pics

It seems hard to believe now, but there was a time when Rihanna lay next to boyfriend Chris Brown with a look of satisfaction – as opposed to terror – on her face.

There was a time when the term “banging” between this couple was a synonym for love-making, not face-pummeling.

There was even a time when Chris Brown made Rihanna laugh, not bleed out of numerous orifices as the result of a beating so brutal it made professional boxers wince.

Those days are long gone, of course. But the following photos serve as a reminder of happier times between this pair.

While not as intimate as the recently-discovered Rihanna nude pics, we’ve uncovered a few shots of the singers from the days of yore. Where did it all go wrong?

From the bedroom to the courtroom: Rihanna will testify as a witness for the prosecution in a preliminary hearing on felony charges against Brown for his alleged assault on her.

So, where did these photos come from? It’s unclear. But we know this:

Chris Brown has an album coming out, Chris Brown says he is not a monster and now these pics have surfaced that are meant to show Chris Brown’s soft side.

Seems like someone is doing his publication relations homework to us. What a violent phony.

Mother of Jon Gosselin Blasts "Twisted" Coverage of Son

Oh, that poor, innocent Jon Gosselin.

The man that invited reality TV cameras into his home (and who married that nag of a wife) is a victim of an unfair media. So claims a totally unbiased source: Jon’s mother, Pamela.

“I don’t think he will ever be portrayed fairly,” Pamela said to Star, after the tabloid shamelessly tracked her down at home. “It’s always twisted… I don’t think it’s fair, and it never will be.”

Over the past few weeks, of course, Jon has been accused of shagging Deanna Hummel, agreeing to a marriage contract that allows for cheating and possibly violating child labor laws in the state of Pennsylvania.

In fact, here’s a look back at the last couple months in the lives of Jon and his annoying wife Kate. Click on each photo to enlarge it:

Nadya Suleman Reality Show: Confirmed!

Congratulations, Spencer Pratt. You’re no longer the biggest loser on reality TV.

After weeks of rumors – and fears from a scared nation -  Nadya Suleman has officially landed a reality show.

The disgraceful human being’s attorney, Jeff Czech, confirmed to Us Weekly that his client signed a deal this week to exploit her brood of 14 children for the world to see.

“[Nadya and the producers] are hoping to have an arrangement whereby several events in the children’s lives would be filmed in a documentary series,” Czech said. “One of the events in the children’s lives might be their first birthday.”

We can hardly wait!

As for that other reality series that focuses on several children and has led to rumors of infidelity, marriage contracts and child labor law violations: Come on, Czech says, why would anyone think Octomom was anything like Jon and Kate Gosselin?!?

“Her television program will not be like the Jon and Kate Plus 8 show,” said Czech. “[Nadya] is looking forward to providing her side of the story.”

Are you looking forward to watching it? Will you tune in to the Octomom reality show?

The Hollywood Gossip Week in Review: May 24-30, 2009

Greetings, gossip fans. Below, The Hollywood Gossip staff takes a look back at what was most likely the greatest week in the storied history of celeb gossip and news.

• Did one of the Real Housewives of New Jersey have a criminal, drug-using, stripping past? This Danielle Staub mug shot seems to suggest so.
