Tuesday Gossip Roundup

Hello Gossip Girls, thanks for joining me for the Tuesday Gossip Roundup, where I catch you up on the week’s gossip in review.  I’m Erika, your weekly gossip maven.  Let’s get chatty, shall we?

Justin Timberlake and former Seventh Heaven star Jessica Biel were recently captured mugging down together in an alley in Rome.  All the money between them and they’d rather making out in an alley over plush digs at the Four Seasons?  Seriously, it gives new meaning to the phrase “get a room”.  In other JT/JB rumors that no one cares about — apparently the two also went diamond shopping in Italy.  No word yet on if it’s for engagement purposes or if it’s just because they can.

Breaking News!  Breaking News!  An announcement that I’m SURE you NEVER saw coming:  Clay Aiken has announced that he is (wait for it….big shocker ahead…) gay.  Whoops.  I’m pretty sure that this qualifies for news the same way saying that I wish I had a million dollars is news. Clay = gay.  The end.  I’m still puzzled as to why this was front page news. Moving on…

Kiefer Sutherland says that he made the most of his 48 days in jail by “doing pushups” and “learning how to fold clothes properly.”  Sutherland was thrown into lockup after being arrested for his second DUI, and we hope he learned his lesson.  The former flame of Julia Roberts was often in solitary confinement because the county couldn’t guarantee his saftey.  Um, excuse me?!?!  Jack Bauer doesn’t need the protection of a county jail.  He can take care of himself, thankyouverymuch.

Proof that money talks, even for the most in-demand celebs?  Check out Brad Pitt on location in France for a Japanese cell-phone commercial in a get-up that most closely resembles a banana.  Obviously the humor isn’t lost on Brad, who seemed to be up-beat for most of the shoot.  However, since we don’t see much of Brad touting the benefits of cell phones here in the US, we can only assume that he was handsomely compensated for his role in this little gem.

Amy Winehouse is in hot water again.  Recently, a fan at a 700 dollar-a-plate dinner asked for a photo with Amy, which she was ok with.  However, when the fan asked if another girl could also get in on the shot, Amy reportedly lost it and whacked the girl.  Police were called, Amy ran off crying, the chick who got hit used an ice pack.  Classy.  Drama just follows the “Rehab” singer wherever she goes.  They tried to make her go to rehab, and I say, GO, GO, GO!  Ok, I know that joke is overused, it just never gets old for me.

Heather Locklear was recently arrested after she was spotted driving “erratically” and eventually found wandering, on foot, through traffic on a California Highway.  The police officers on the scene suspect that she was under the influence of prescription drugs.  Frankly, I think the mug shot says it all.

Well Gossip Fiends, that’s the roundup for this week.  It’s actually been a rather slow week for gossip, but don’t worry, I’ll be back next week with even more awe-inducing news for you.  Be sure to stay tuned.
