The Hills Gossip, Vin Diesel is a Dad, Janice Dickinson Loses her pup and Shania Twain Speaks Out

The Hills are alive with the sound of... spin-offs? Certainly looks that way. An inside source from the MTV hit show, The Hills, is saying that Whitney Port will be getting her own Hills spin-off series. The yet-to-be-named series will follow Whitney Port as she moves up at fashion PR company, People's Revolution and makes friends on both the East and West coast. Hey, it could've been worse - MTV could've offered Heidi and Spencer their own show as they plan their wedding and get booed at event after event.

One person who doesn't think that Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt's wedding is a good idea (and really who does) is fellow Hills co-star, Audrina Patridge. Audrina was recently asked her opinion about the rumored nuptials and she expressed some concern about the fact that Heidi was still really too young to be married and suggested that the couple try living together for a year to see if they could make it through that without breaking up saying, "Once you're married, you're married."

Hollywood hottie, Vin Diesel, recently became a dad! He and his model girlfriend, Paloma Jimenez, welcomed their new baby girl into the world back in April. So that means it is possible to give birth in Hollywood without lavish baby showers, photo shoots and paparazzi. Who knew?

We all knew it was coming, but the on-again/off-again couple, Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff have officially called it quits. The two first met on the set of Dancing with the Stars and dated for two years afterwards. Karina Smirnoff dodged rumors of a possible romance with her last dancing partner, R&B star Mario, all last season but denied anything happened. Twenty bucks says she hooks up with the new Mario within the next month.

You know how they says that dogs are great judges of character? Well, what do you think it means when you adopt a new puppy and they make a run for it one week later? That's exactly what happened with former America's Next Top Model judge, Janice Dickinson and her newly adopted pup. She adopted a chocolate lab pup from LA celebrity pet store, Pets of Bel-Air, and now has no idea where it's run off to. This is the same pet store that made headlines in 2007 when it was accused of re-selling dogs from puppy mills. I guess the little pup couldn't handle living with the "world's first supermodel".

Shania Twain is speaking out for the first time since announcing her separation from husband of fourteen years, Robert "Mutt" Lange. She recently posted a message on her website thanking her fans for the letters and emails that she's received expressing their support and encouragement. She says that she has a lot to say, but wants to do it the best way she knows how - through music. I wonder if this means that we should expect the next great bitter break-up inspired song from the pop-country queen. Wouldn't that be the best revenge - creating a hit album without the help of her producer-husband? Can't wait to hear it!

Ashlee and Pete's Wedding, Amy's Lonely Anniversary and Kenny's Future Plans

Wedding bells rang last Saturday for Ashlee Simpson and the trapped-for-now Pete Wentz. The couple tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony at Joe and Tina Simpson's LA home. The wedding was truly a family affair with dad, Joe Simpson performing the ceremony, sister, Jessica Simpson serving as maid of honor and Pete Wentz's pet dog, Hemingway, as ring-bearer. Then, of course, there's the rumored bun in the oven that may or may not have also been in attendance.

The Simpson-Wentz wedding reception had an Alice in Wonderland theme, which seemed to suit the style of taste of both the bride and groom. Thankfully, there were no drunken outbursts by Jessica Simpson or lip-syncing incidents by the bride. Although, there were reports that the older Simpson sister did engage in some hot & heavy PDA with on-again/off-again boyfriend, Tony Romo.

Elsewhere in the world of celebrity love......Troubled rocker, Amy Winehouse, and her husband, *Blake Fielder-Civi*l, celebrated their 1st wedding anniversary this past weekend in true rock & roll fashion - alone. The couple was unable to be together on their anniversary due to the fact that Blake Fielder-Civil is currently in jail and is not allowed to have visitors on Sundays. Amy Winehouse did manage to pop in for a belated wedding anniversary visit on Monday. Afterwards, she treated herself to a celebratory anniversary lunch of takeout for one.

Another couple that wasn't celebrating this past weekend was Shania Twain and her producer/husband, Mutt Lange. How shocking was it to hear that Shania had split from her husband of 14 years, Mutt Lange? It's easy to forget about Shania Twain since she lives in Switzerland most of the time, but this news is huge!


The ironic thing about this split is that the couple originally moved to Switzerland because of rumors that their marriage was in trouble. And now it seems that the split was actually caused by an affair that Mutt Lange was having with the secretary and manager of the Switzerland chateau where the couple resided. In fact, some say that the secretary has left her husband as well and that she and Mutt Lange are currently together. Sounds like a bad Lifetime movie, doesn't it?


What makes this news even harder to take is that Mutt Lange has been so instrumental in Shania Twain's success. He's co-written and produced practically every country-pop hit that Shania has ever had. Who knows what this split will mean for Shania's future career.


And finally, one country star who learned some important life lessons from his very own public split is Academy of Country Music's Entertainer of the Year, Kenny Chesney. You might remember Kenny Chesney's short-lived marriage to Renee Zellwegger back in 2005. Neither Kenny or Renee have remarried since their breakup, but both reportedly remain close friends. In a recent interview, Kenny revealed that when he is ready to marry again he'll be sure to give the marriage 150% and not go into it as unprepared as he did the first time around.
