The fabulous Laura Linney is on the cover of Prevention‘s August 2010 issue. She talks about her new show on Showtime, The Big C, and how it inspired her to change her habits for the better.
On getting older: You know, I recently heard someone complaining about getting old, and I had such a violent reaction to that. There’s no question that getting old isn’t easy, but it’s a privilege, folks. I’m over people being “woe is me” about getting old.
On being nearly vegetarian: I certainly feel better now that I’m barely eating meat. I don’t feel as heavy, my digestion is better, my skin is better — even my hair is better! And I feel healthier when I don’t eat dairy, but that’s really hard for me — I love cheese. But food is not just nutritional, it’s mental, so you know, if I need a little chocolate every once in a while, I need a little chocolate.
On the one body part she’d change: I wish my feet were bigger. [Laughs] I have small feet for someone my height. I’m 5-foot-7 and my feet are size 7. I fall down a lot, and I think my balance would be better if my feet were an 8.
On staying positive: Say yes to things that you might not normally say yes to. [For example,] meeting my husband 5 years ago was certainly unexpected. I’d always assumed I would be with someone in my business, because who could understand the crazy hours, the demands on our time, the traveling? He wasn’t in the performing arts; normally I would never have given it a chance. But something inside me said, Try something new. If you assume that you know yourself completely, you’ve shut yourself down.

Brody Jenner and Avril Lavigne in their own reality show? Really? Well, if Brody gets his way, yes. Apparently, Brody wants to build up his fame now that The Hills has ended and dating Avril on TV seems to be the answer.
Jayde Nicole Stands Up For Brody Jenner’s Ding Dong
One of Avirl’s friends told In Touch,
“Brody came up with the idea for a reality show, and he’s begging Avril to do it. She’s in love with him, but isn’t sure about it, yet she doesn’t want to tell him no.”

They’ve only been together since February, but they are already inking each other, so why not? I say do it! I will watch. Would you?

Joan Rivers has had an apparent change of heart. One minute she was cutting Lindsay Lohan to pieces on her Twitter and now she’s offering to pay for her rehab.
While discussing Lilo on The Insider, Joan said,
“I think it is so sad, the road that this girl is going down. It’s appallingly sad… She better get into rehab and better get into it fast. Lindsay, I am pleading with you… you’re beautiful, you’re smart, you’re talented. Go to rehab, you’re young! Melissa [and I] will pay for your rehab!”
That is actually really sweet and I wish that Joan had taken that approach in the first place. Lindsay is a smart girl who has made some horrible decisions. Throwing it in her face isn’t likely to fix anything. Offering help and support, now that might actually get you somewhere.
For now, Lilo will prep for her time in jail.

Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin are heading down the aisle and then down the reality TV path. They have a very colorful/interesting story that might actually draw a crowd.
The soon to be newlyweds have apparently been shopping their show idea around to different networks and there are some negotiations underway. Nothing is in ink yet, but I think there will be a deal soon.
Sarah Palin Docudrama Reality Show Is In The Works
The show is going to focus on parenting issues. Hmmmm, they are very young parents that have had some serious issues. Yeah, I guess they could offer some interesting points of view. And yes, their son Tripp will be on board as well. Will Sarah Palin be involved? That could get pretty interesting…..
Question is, would you watch the show?

Well that might hamper his acting career a bit. Wesley Snipes was denied his appeal, claiming that his 3 year prison sentence for tax evasion was “unreasonable.” The courts essentially laughed at him and then gave him the 3 years in prison.
Snipes was found guilty of not filing tax returns from 1999 to 2001 back in 2008. This meant he owed the government about $12k. What a waste. Why do this wealthy people try to cheat? Why can’t they just do the righ tthing and save themselves the trouble and embarrassment?
Snipes will likely check into the big house soon.

Paris Hilton apparently needs her weed fix at all times and that is why she’s brave enough to travel with it on her all the time. She was detained at a private airport in Corsica after authorities discovered she had pot in her purse, TMZ reports.
Paris Hilton Busted For Weed At World Cup
Paris had less than a gram of pot and was released shortly thereafter. So I guess if you don’t have a lot, it’s okay? Maybe she needs to not travel with pot. It’s kind of hampering her vacation activities.

Katy did this one in her hometown of Santa Barbara with her friends. She also hired OC star, Josh Kloss to be her make out partner for some super sexy scenes. Will Russell Brand be jealous? Not likely. She has him well trained.

Bethenny Frankel has reached official MILF status. This new mom who doesn’t look like she just had a baby was out promoting her book, The Skinny Girl Dish at Barnes & Noble in New York City.
Bethenny Frankel “The Truth Is, My Fans Love Me!”
I absolutely love that dress. Perhaps that’s because I own one almost identical to it! She looks great and hello, we know baby Bryn is getting well fed!
So many people love to hate on Bethenny, but I think the girl is fab. Seriously, how can you hate all her spunk?
