This probably does not come as a big surprise to anyone, but actress Tara Reid has checked into rehab. According to her rep, Reid checked herself into the Promises Treatment Center. There was no mention of what exactly Reid checked herself into rehab for. If you remember, Reid had stated that she was cleaning her life up and was happy, and she had no reason to go back to her bad ways. She was partying and drinking and was out of control. Did Reid fall off the wagon? At least she was smart enough to check herself into rehab before she seriously hurt herself or someone else.

My thoughts go out to the Culkin family right now as they mourn the loss of Dakota Culkin. Macaulay Culkin's sister, Dakota, was killed last week in an accident. She was struck by a car and later died at the hospital. This is truly a tragic accident, and here's hoping that the Culkin family can find some peace this holiday season.

Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps claims that he is single. He stated on the Live with Regis and Kelly show that he is "not seeing anybody." According to Phelps, the picture of him and the cocktail waitress, Carolynn Pal, was set up by the paparazzi photographers at the airport. The photogs had the woman walk right next to Phelps acting like they are walking together. Phelps says that he has "never seen her before." What I want to know is why the photographers would do this. Phelps is just an athlete that happened to win several gold medals for the United States, and now people want to make him out as some playboy. I say just leave him alone and let him live his life.

Hollywood party girl Tara Reid is finally catching a break! After years of hard partying, botched plastic surgery and unemployment, Tara is back in the game. Well, sort of. Her new gig will be starring on the hit show, Dancing with the Stars. The catch? It's the Australian version, not the American one. Hey, at least she's working...

Have you heard of Ryan Shawhughes? Yeah, neither had I... until now. Ryan is the former nanny of the now-divorced celebrity couple, Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke. She's also engaged and pregnant. I know, I know, big deal. But guess who the father of the baby is? Ethan Hawke! Mm-hmm, sounds like the storyline to one of those bad Lifetime movies older women like to watch, but it's soooo much better because it's actually true. Of course, it has been a while since Ethan and Uma split, but still the fact that he's soon going to be married to the woman who used to watch his kids, well, you don't see that everyday.

Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez love to talk about the fact that they're raising their twin babies on their own. You know, as in without the help of any nannies as is the custom among celebrity couples. But they left out one tiny detail. Jennifer Lopez's mom has actually moved in with the couple and is helping out with the care of the twins. Someone might want to tell Marc Anthony that just because she's not on the payroll, doesn't mean she isn't helping out. Wonder what Mama Lopez thinks about what her son-in-law is blabbing about to everyone.

*Beyonce*'s little sister, Solange, had some bad luck during a recent performance. A piece of metal fell on Solange's foot which resulted in a painful break. But even a broken foot didn't stop this diva-in-training from going on with the show. She finished her performance before allowing anyone to rush her off to the hospital. What a trooper!

Who's the latest celeb on baby bump watch? Paris Hilton! And it's not just talk this time. Paris was recently photographed walking alongside boyfriend, Benji Madden in LA. But in these particular pics, Paris Hilton is sporting what appears to be the beginning of a baby bump. Now since we're talking about Paris the bump could be one of three things: 1)an actual baby bump which means that the heiress really is pregnant, 2)a PR stunt much like the recent appearance she made on Pop Fiction or 3)a really big lunch. Hmmm...

And finally here's some gossip about a real blast from the past. Lynda Carter, known for her portrayal as Wonder Woman, made headlines again recently and it had nothing to do with her acting skills. The former TV star was out on the Potomac River when she spotted something out of the ordinary - a dead body floating face down. While she didn't pull any superhero stunts, she did call 911. Too bad she wasn't wearing her old Wonder Woman costume at the time - that would've been a hell of a story.
