Lots of people have mixed feelings about Oprah Winfrey. Lots of people have mixed feelings about PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). So ambiguity and ambivalence have joined forces with this latest news: Oprah will receive a plaque and a certificate of recognition as PETA?s ?Person of the Year? for 2008. I guess Pamela Anderson had a more pressing engagement?
The main reason stated for this honor was apparently the episode of ?The Oprah Winfrey Show? dedicated to the passing of Oprah beloved dog, Sophie. Sophie was a 13-year-old cocker spaniel who died of kidney disease. Oprah called Sophie ?one of the loves of my life? and truly seemed devastated at Sophie?s passing. The episode dedicated to Sophie focused on the cruel and horrible things that happen to dogs at *some* puppy mills.
Add another honor Oprah Winfrey mantle: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has named her its “Person of the Year.”
The Norfolk, Va.-based animal rights’ group’s president, Ingrid E. Newkirk, on Friday singled out the media mogul, 54, for using her “powerful voice to defend those without one.”
In April this year, Winfrey dedicated an episode of her show to her late cocker spaniel, Sophie, who was 13.

In keeping with the theme, I have mixed feelings about this. I don?t doubt that Oprah was overwhelmed with the tragedy of a beloved pet?s death, and she turned that tragedy into an informative episode of her show. But it does seem like there are better advocates for animal rights that deserve more recognition. Oprah wears a ton of leather and she eats meat - not that I endorse PETA?s all-or-nothing stance on many issues of animal rights, but couldn?t they find someone who practices everything that PETA preaches?

John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston are in NY this weekend before Christmas and have been photographed now multiple times together, a sort-of first for the reunited couple. They were seen out at restaurant Il Mulino in Greenwich Village and nearby Olive Tree Cafe and Bar. Photo agency Splash News says it was their second night out at both of those locations so they’re not doing much to hide from photographers and may welcome the publicity. It’s not like they can do much to hide in the city and they probably realize that.
Jennifer looks pretty happy and open to getting her picture taken but you can see the annoyed expression on John’s face. He’s got that beleaguered boyfriend look that often comes with trips to the mall and being forced to sit through chick flicks. Maybe the poor guy just had a cold.
Aniston was also seen leaving Mayer’s NY apartment earlier that day in a pair of sweats and comfy boots. She did her best to hide from photographers by covering up with a large scarf.

It seems like actor Josh Duhamel and Black-Eyed Pea/pants-wetter Fergie have been engaged forever -but it’s only been a year and a half. The couple will finally tie the know next month, according to reports. Since they got engaged, there have been numerous pregnancy rumors, breakup rumors and even speculation that the couple had already wed in a secret ceremony. But this one seems like the real deal, since reps for the pair have confirmed the date.
Fergie and Josh Duhamel have made a special New Year’s resolution: a Los Angeles-area wedding on Jan. 10, PEOPLE confirms.
The pop star, 33, and the actor, 36, got engaged a little more than a year ago and were recently spotted checking out kitchen items at Crate and Barrel.
On the wedding guest list? Most of Fergie’s costars in Nine ? the movie adaptation of the musical which Fergie (real name: Stacy Ferguson) just finished filming in Europe ? including Kate Hudson and Nicole Kidman, according to Access Hollywood.
The Black-Eyed Peas singer plays a prostitute in the film, along with Hudson, Kidman, Penlope Cruz, Sophia Loren and Daniel Day-Lewis.
Duhamel, star of the box-office giant, Transformers and the NBC drama, Las Vegas, recently wrapped the romantic comedy, When In Rome with Kristen Bell, Jon Heder and Dax Shepard.

Wow - Nicole Kidman and Daniel Day Lewis is invited to the wedding of these two B-Listers? I mean — Congrats to Josh and Fergie. I will be curious to see what she wears to the wedding. Fergie’s wardrobe over the year has been seriously hit-or-miss. One day, she looks stunning, and the next day she looks like a hoochie bag lady. Hopefully she hires a bridal stylist to help her. Brides should avoid suspenders and short shorts as a general rule. But Josh, on the other hand, could probably show up in Bermuda shorts and still look totally hot.

No one wants this, but it’s happening anyway. Lisa Rinna, 45, confirmed that she is posing for Playboy. Again. She told Extra, “I’m the worst liar on the planet, I can’t lie, so… I think that could be a yes.”
Yet more proof Playboy is about to fold. The magazine used to be something little kids found under their dad’s bed and whacked off to. Now it’s become this marvelous tool to help bulimics facilitate gagging. The last thing I want to do is check out a 45-year-old with duck lips naked. No matter how much airbrushing is involved. You could tell me they copy and pasted a naked Megan Fox over her and I’d still try to punch my fist through the entire magazine before you could even flip it open. I can’t take any chances.

Last week, we told you that “Private Practice” star Kate Walsh’s 15-month marriage is over. It was just as sudden as the marriage itself, and many were wondering if perhaps the couple rushed into things. Now, new reports are surfacing that the reason for the abrupt ending could be the off screen chemistry between Kate and her TV co-star, David Sutcliffe.
As they held each other at Katherine Heigl’s 30th birthday party, no one could have though anything was wrong between Kate Walsh and her husband of just 14 months. “They were dancing up a storm, having a really good time together,” one partygoer tells Star. “There were no signs that there was any trouble in paradise.”
Yet, just a week after Katherine’s Nov. 15 bash, Kate and hubby Alex Young called it quits, according to divorce papers he filed in Los Angeles. So what went wrong in such a short time?
Friends say one of the main reasons is Kate’s growing closeness with David Sutcliffe, the divorced hunk who plays her love interest on her Grey’s Anatomy spin-off.
As Kate’s character and David’s character have grown closer, so have the actors. “Kate really likes David, and knowing that didn’t help Alex’s fragile ego,” a friend of the actress said. “Kate and David had a real connection playing lovers on the show, and she didn’t seem to have that with her own husband.”
Kate’s determination to keep her struggling show alive meant spending more time at the “office,” regularly working 16-hour days on the show. Much of her time was spent with David, 39, who just became a regular on the show.
“Kate was too busy working - she hardly even saw Alex anymore,” says the source. “She looked forward to being on the set and really liked where the show’s storyline was taking her. But then, who wouldn’t with a co-star like David?”
A second source adds, “She’s one of those people who needs constant male attention.” And he gave it to her. “She spent a lot of time in her trailer with David.”
[From Star print version, Dec. 29, 2008]
Sounds like that show is just as dramatic behind the scenes as it is on screen! I’ve never seen it, but based on photos of this David guy, he is pretty hunky. Still, it was only a few months ago that Kate was gushing about her new husband and how happy they were. But I guess if you are spending 16 hours a day with someone it’s pretty hard to remember your husband waiting for you at home. It’s a wonder anyone stays married in Hollywood, really. Beautiful people who spend all their time with other beautiful people doing love scenes - it’s really a recipe for cheating if you think about it.

The baby boy he fathered through artificial insemination with friend/roommate Jaymes Foster is only four months old, but American Idol contestant Clay Aiken is already excited at the thought of becoming a dad again in the near future. Apparently, Foster is on board with the idea too. Memories of labor pains sure do fade fast with some people.
Clay Aiken is enjoying every minute of being dad to 4-month-old Parker, and now he and the baby’s mother, music producer Jaymes Foster, are already trying to add to their brood. Clay and Jaymes’ relationship is strictly platonic, so they will be conceiving this child like the last, through IVF - and Jaymes, 50, is ready to begin the grueling process again.
“Clay’s sperm is already frozen and Jaymes has started taking vitamins,” an insider says. “They’ll probably begin the procedure right after the new year.”
And the happy dad’s love life is also progressing nicely: When the 30-year-old singer began his stint in Monty Python’s Spamalot last winter, he started dating Broadway dancer Reed Kelly. “Clay was gushing to everyone about how happy he was,” another insider says. “He said that he met someone really special.”
[From In Touch Weekly print version, Dec. 29, 2008]
I’m sure Clay is a great dad and all, but any article with the words “Clay,” “sperm” and “gushing” makes my stomach queasy. I do wonder how safe it is for a 50-year-old woman to be going through IVF to conceive a child. According to the March of Dimes (and the genetic counselor I saw when I found out I was pregnant), a woman over the age of 49 has a 1-in-10 chance of having a baby with Down Syndrome and other chromosomal defects. That’s a pretty high risk - one in ten births! But I’m sure these two have top doctors helping them. Good luck to both.

Since it is seriously the slowest news day ever, here’s Anne Hathaway being boringly gorgeous (as always) in the January ‘09 issue of Vogue. If she could just work with me here and date another swindler or something, it would really help me out. It would be even better if she started swindling people her own self. Or maybe if she had a torrid affair with a married professional athlete, or started her own crazy religion. I would even be willing to accept a fake lesbian relationship! Something. ANYTHING. I mean, c’mon lady. Stop being so damn normal. Spice it up a little!
