While Demi Moore works to overcome her recent personal problems, we have an update on her professional life:
Sarah Jessica Parker has signed on to replace Moore as Gloria Steinem in Lovelace, the upcoming biopic centered around the life of 1970s porn star Linda Lovelace. Demi dropped out of the film almost immediately after being hospitalized earlier this week.
Parker joins a cast that includes Amanda Seyfried in the title role, along Peter Sarsgaard, Adam Brody, Juno Temple and Wes Bentley.
Moore, meanwhile, is out of the hospital. Her next move is unknown, but the 911 call placed on her behalf was released to the public today.
Adam Lambert is in full-on album promotional mode.
A few days after releasing the cover art for “Trespassing,” the former American Idol favorite is taking fans behind the scenes of his upcoming music video for the first single off that CD, “Better Than I Know Myself.”
“Sometimes you screw up or you say something to hurt your partner’s feelings, or you haven’t been supportive,” Adam says below. “This song basically owns that, says, ‘Look, I’m sorry. Sometimes I’m not perfect but without you I don’t know what I would do with myself. I need you because you are the only person that knows me better than I know myself.”
Baylie Brown enjoyed a triumphant return to American Idol last night.
Five years after her initial appearance on the show – during which she advanced to Hollywood, was paired with uncooperative teammates ere and then forgot the lyrics on stage – this 21-year old Texan showed off a new hair color and a great voice yesterday as one of the 54 Golden Ticket recipients (along with Kristine Osorio and Ramiro Garcia) to make it out of The Lone Star State.
Watch her first try out below, lament how much we miss Simon Cowell by watching him once again in action, and then compare it to her version of “Bed of Roses” from this week’s audition.
Octomom Nadya Suleman’s octuplets turn three today.
Pray for them. Even if you’re not religious … just pray.
We’re legitimately shocked they all survived this long, looking relatively healthy to boot, her as the mom, but hey, it’s a very pleasant surprise. Eight times over.
Nadya Suleman took her octuplets out for some fun to celebrate, hitting up the Seascape Kids Fun venue in Los Angeles. Looks like a good time was had, except perhaps by the random paparazzi guy creeping in the background.
Suleman’s octuplets are Noah, Maliyah, Isaiah, Nariah, Makai, Josiah, Jeremiah and Jonah.
Her other children are Elijah Makai, Amerah Yasmeen, Joshua Jacob, Aiden, Calyssa Airelle and Caleb Kai. Yes, that makes 14 kids and no jobs in all.
With Demi Moore out of Sherman Oaks Hospital in Los Angeles, more information on what exactly landed her there in the first place may come out tomorrow.
The 911 call placed on behalf of the actress this week will be made available on Friday, but with a major catch: following a review by the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office, numerous references from the call will be redacted because they refer to medical conditions and could violate privacy laws.
All we know at the moment is that a witness described Moore as appearing to suffer a “seizure” on Tuesday night and she was therefore transported to the hospital to seek “professional assistance.”
The most reliable information so far states that Moore actually inhaled a dangerous amount of nitrous oxide, leading to an adverse reaction and a panicked call from a friend. What was the actress doing with a substance typically reserved for teenagers in their parents’ basement?
Sorry, Armie Hammer. Your arrest for marijuana possession didn’t even make THG’s Top 10 favorite marijuana scandals … though it did inspire us to compile the list!
Note that there are plenty of pot smokers out there who don’t appear here simply because they haven’t been busted for their antics. We snub them, but they win!
Anyway, take a look at some recent stars involved in weed-related police matters below and vote for which celebrity stoner is your favorite …
10. Chace Crawford / Matthew McConaughey (tie). The Texans tie for the 10 spot based on the classic mug shots taken after their respective arrests.
9. Snoop Dogg. Snoop’s arrest this month was about as shocking as … the #7 man on this list, who was also cited for possession in the same TOWN!
8. Jermaine Hopkins / Sam Hurd (tie). The Lean On Me star and Chicago Bears player may not be household names … but were big time DEALERS.
7. Willie Nelson. Seriously, just leave Willie alone cops.
6. Soulja Boy. Recently pulled over with his entourage carrying a bunch of weed, cash and a gun. All in one briefcase. Sometimes you gotta travel light.
5. Michael Phelps. Don’t hit the bong after winning a gold medal, kids.
4. Brooke Mueller. Charlie’s ex claims her infamous crack pipe incident merely involved weed. Even if you give her the benefit of the doubt, what a mess!
3. Jenelle Evans. Girl can’t go 24 hours without smoking up! Or getting arrested. At least some of her probation woes stem from positive drug tests.
2. Miley Cyrus. Our #2 scandal didn’t even involve weed, necessarily … but Miles totally smokes it, and who else could compete with this bong video!
1. DMX. The all-time king of celebrity mug shots is only slightly less known for his affinity for the sticky-sticky. Sometimes those things are related!
Pippa Middleton is the master ofparty planning. That is her job, after all.
So what are her tips for planning a Valentine’s Day to remember?
On her family’s Party Times website, she advises, “Throw a Valentine-themed party for a few friends. Hang some heart decorations around the room for extra kitsch-factor and drink sparkling wine or specially mixed Valentine’s cocktails.”
Another fun suggestion: “How about dipping marshmallows and fruit skewers of banana, grapes and strawberries into a molten chocolate fountain. Everyone can join in – just make sure you have napkins at the ready as things may get messy!”
“Create a few rhyming clues for a treasure hunt around the house to unearth … little Valentine’s gifts that Cupid has lovingly hidden for family members.”
No word if Pippa Middleton will be partaking with any lucky fellas.
Currently vacationing in Mustique with sister Kate Middleton, Pip is single after splitting from her boyfriend of more than a year, Alex Loudon, late last year.
There have been so many shocking celebrity divorces lately, even by Hollywood standards. Not just breakups, but actual marriages crumbling before our eyes.
Some did surprise us more than others, but we can honestly say we didn’t see any of these divorce filings – all from the last 12 months alone! – coming at all.
Which of these splits shocked you the most? Vote in our poll below …
10. Zooey Deschanel and Ben Gibbard. The New Girl star and the Death Cab For Cutie member certainly seemed like a perfect match. Apparently not.
9. Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries. Okay, not all that surprising for myriad reasons we have been over ad nauseam on THG. But 72 days?! Idiots.
8. Tareq and Michaele Salahi. Like Kim and Kris, nothing about these two truly shocks us. Except her running off with Journey guitarist Neal Schon.
7. Leah Messer and Corey Simms. The stars of Teen Mom 2 seem so happy … on the episodes that are still airing now! Well, not last night’s. Still!
6. Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore. Seemed an odd fit at the start, but their split came totally out of left field. Now she’s taking nitrous hits. Nitrous.
5. Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony. Apparently not the marrying type.
4. Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz. Remember them? We forgot too.
3. Katy Perry and Russell Brand. They’re polar opposites, but were so crazy about each other and we thought it was just crazy enough to last forever.
2. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver. The heiress to the Kennedy political dynasty and the Governator seemed as rock solid as they come.
1. Heidi Klum and Seal. Still fresh, but as stunning as any other celeb divorce we can remember based on the couple’s perpetual displays of love.

James Farentino, a veteran TV actor whose career was marred by personal problems later in life, has passed away, according to the L.A. Times. He was 73.
Farentino, who notched nearly 100 TV roles including recurring roles in series such as Police Story, Dynasty and Melrose Place, was married four times.
He played George Clooney’s estranged father on ER, and was also known for a turbulent relationship with Frank Sinatra’s youngest daughter, Tina Sinatra.
After a five-year, on-and-off relationship with Tina Sinatra, Farentino in 1994 pleaded no contest to stalking her after being charged with 24 misdemeanor counts of stalking.
Sentenced to 36 months’ probation plus psychological and alcohol counseling, Farentino believed that some in the industry treated him differently after the incident.
Farentino died Tuesday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after a long illness. He is survived by his fourth wife, Stella, whom he married in 1994, and sons David and Saverio.
