Marilyn Manson, Evan Rachel Wood Split (Again)!

Marilyn Manson and actress Evan Rachel Wood, who got back together fairly recently, ended their engagement last week, a source confirmed this morning.

A newly single Manson wasted no time getting back in the swing of things, hitting the town over the weekend, dining at L.A's STK and clubbing at Boudoir.

According to reports, the 41-year-old shock rocker was with a group including a brunette named Twiggy and former Playmate of the Year Colleen Shannon.

"They just broke off their engagement recently, and he needed a night out with friends," says another source close to Marilyn Manson (Brian Warner).

Don't we all.

GOT WOOD? Marilyn Manson no longer does. Maybe for the best.

While together, Manson had proposed to the True Blood actress, 22, during a January performance in Paris, witnesses said. She enthusiastically accepted.

The two began dating in 2006, when Evan Rachel Wood was barely legal, but then broke up in 2008, when Wood was linked briefly to actor Shane West.

They reconciled for a short time, only to split again before getting engaged last January. That's all over now though, as they've gone their separate ways.

Hopefully they can get back together and break up again soon.

True Blood Stars Get Naked, Bloody, Cover Rolling Stone

They're hot. They're sexy. They're undead.

And they're covering the latest issue of Rolling Stone.

True Blood stars Alexander Skarsgard, Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer bare almost all for this iconic magazine, which really should come as no surprise to anyone that watches this HBO smash.

It features more gore than the White House between 1992 and 2000; and more nudity than the movie collection of Montana Fishburne. Check out the show's main trio of sexy stars below.

Teresa Giudice is an Idiot

In October, Teresa Giudice and her husband filed for bankruptcy. The couple owes $11 million to creditors and has been in and out of court this month in an attempt to stop an August 22 auction of their home and belongings.

For that reason, a recent shopping spree by Giudice makes her seem more insane than co-star Danielle Staub:

According to receipts uncovered by The New York Post, Teresa spent $8,800 for curtains and almost $45,000 on wall hangings, mirrors, frames, tables, urns and chairs, all since the time of her bankruptcy filing.

Real Housewife, Moron

In response, attorney Jim Kridel has tried to keep a straight face this week as he defends his clients.

“That was the money she earned as an advance for her book Skinny Italian,” Kridel said. “Since she earned it after the filing, she was absolutely free to spend it.

"If she put it in the bank, they’d say, ‘Why don’t you pay your creditors,’ and the trustee might freeze the assets while he investigates whether she can spend it or not... Legally you are entitled to spend money you earn after a bankruptcy."

Ethically? It's not like we thought Giudice possessed morals anyway.

“She needed to re-buy furniture because she didn’t have any furniture in the house,” said Kridel. “It’s a big house and she wanted furniture consistent with her style on the show. There is nothing wrong with doing that, except that it doesn’t look good for her to be doing it.”

The auction in question has been pushed back to October 3.

Adam Lambert Releases Remixed Single

Adam Lambert might b touring the country with fellow American Idol finalist Allison Iraheta, but the singer found time recently to make a recording studio stop.

There, he remixed one of his latest hit singles, "If I Had You," teaming up with DJ/producer Jason Nevins on the new version. Give it a listen now:


If I Had You Remix

What do you think?

As fans ponder that question, they should also prepare to get their Glam on. Here's why:

The singer has started a new contest on his official website. He's encouraging followers to Tweet photos of themselves decked out in glitter, makeup and eccentric outfits to @adamlambert, including the hashtag "#glamphoto" on all entries.

On September 15, the contest's grand prize winner will receive an autographed item from Lambert.

Kate Gosselin Celebrates as ALL EIGHT KIDS GO TO SCHOOL

The first day of school is right around the corner.

For Kate Gosselin, it's a really significant milestone.

The famous single mom recently blogged excitedly: "ALL EIGHT OF MY CHILDREN will, for the first time ever, ATTEND FULL-TIME SCHOOL this year!!!!"

Having just turned six, Kate and Jon Gosselin's famous sextuplets Aaden, Joel, Collin, Alexis, Hannah and Leah are full-time elementary schoolers now.

To nine-year-old twin sisters Cary and Mady, it's no thing.

"I stand in awe, amazement and slight sadness at the thought of this [insert sad, nostalgic mommy music here please]," Kate writes of the moment.

Gorgeous Gosselin

Kate Gosselin will finally have some free time.

"I can remember ... thinking ahead to the day when I would send eight children off to school Monday through Friday... at the time, the thought of having eight children at home Monday-Friday scared the living bejeebers out of me."

Kate, who just reached a custody settlement with Jon, says when she was preggers, she "drew the conclusion that someday my house would, thanks to the school system, sorta somewhat calm down again ... Uh yeah, or so I hoped!"

Of course, since the sextuplets' birth, of course, the brood became reality stars on, the couple divorced last year, Jon Gosselin paraded around with various mediocre girls, and Kate appeared on ABC's Dancing With the Stars.

Still, Kate certainly isn't taking things for granted.

"This milestone is a privilege, never a guarantee, especially not in a high-risk sextuplet pregnancy," she writes. "I feel honored (even if a bit sad) to send them marching off to school... Just like Snow White and her 8 (please, just on this occasion?) Dwarfs!"

Devon James Paternity Suit Against Tiger Woods: Rejected!

Anyone else really, really surprised by this breaking sports news?

A paternity suit filed by the upstanding, totally credible Devon James against Tiger Woods has officially been thrown out, ending her bid for ... who knows.

Tiger's porn star mistress was shown no mercy by a judge this morning, who dismissed her paternity case and request for a DNA test from the golfer.

James claimed Tiger is the baby daddy of her 9-year-old son, Austin T. James, and wanted the judge to force Tiger Woods to submit to a DNA test.

Giving A Devon James Pic

A TIGER TALE: Despite the fact that he probably tapped that, along with dozens of other women, Devon James' paternity claims were a bunch of baloney.

The judge in Manatee County, Fla., had none of this, tossing the case in part because Devon James was MIA, and for other, more significant reasons.

For one, she doesn't even have custody of the kid now. Her mom does. Moreover, her mom says a prior DNA test in 2002 proved another man was the dad.

There you go. Got the time, by any chance, Devon? Looks like 14:59 ...

Jason Toohey: Dating Jenny McCarthy

Jenn McCarthy has moved on from longtime partner Jim Carrey and the identity of her new "mystery man" has now been revealed. It's Jason Toohey!

A 35-year-old Las Vegas resident and former fitness model, Jason has been quietlydating McCarthy for two months - and they're living together already!

Temporarily, anyway.

"I've been living in Vegas for about a month. My house is under construction right now in L.A., so I very well could be here until it's done," McCarthy said.

"It's been awesome here."

Jenny's rep confirmed that she and Jason Toohey are a thing.

The pair has already been spotted on several dates in Las Vegas. They also shared kisses Saturday as McCarthy hosted a Midsummer Night's Dream bash.

Toohey is the founder of Eyedews, an under-eye mask treatment. Recently, McCarthy began promoting the product via Twitter and on Las Vegas television.

After her April breakup with Jim Carrey, McCarthy says she is focusing on "Change and growth ... But I feel really good, I'm looking forward to the future."

Justin Bieber Makes Like The Beatles

Careful, Justin Bieber. We know you're a very popular young man, and we know you have a comic book, memoir and movie based around your life in the works.

But you may wish to tone down the comparisons to iconic rock bands that changed the world.

Just a small piece of advice from THG, in response to your new MTV Video Music Awards promotional video. In it, the 16-year old artist is chased around by female admirers, prompting him to say of the ad:

“I’m kind of like the Beatles running, and there’s girls chasing after me. Everything’s been going pretty smooth. I like girls chasing me, so it’s good.”

The awards will air on MTV on September 12, and Justin has two specific girls in mind he'd love to chase him around. Watch the video now:

Celebrity Hair Affair: Kristin Cavallari

Is Kristin Cavallari turning over a new leaf?

With The Hills over, she's reportedly dating Doug Reinhardt, and the reality TV vixen just darkened her trademark blonde locks to a shade of light brown.

“I just dyed it!” Cavallari told People earlier this week. “I was bored with my hair and it’s the first time I was able to dye my hair because of filming for The Hills."

"You could never change your hair. ‘I thought: Now I can, why not!’”

To complete the transformation, the blonde beauty also added some wispy bangs to her mane. Do you like the change, or prefer her signature look?

Fashion Face-Off: Kate Walsh vs. Ellen Pompeo

One Stella McCartney blazer. Two gorgeous stars. Who wore it better?

The former co-stars of Grey's Anatomy, Kate Walsh and Ellen Pompeo, both wore the same Stella McCartney blazer recently, with Walsh (girlfriend of Neil Andrea now the leading lady of Private Practice) pairing hers with ombré jeans.

Pompeo, still the leading lady of Grey's and now the mother of a baby girl, Stella Luna, with husband Chris Ivery, opted for a simple pencil skirt with hers.

Who wore it better? You tell us ...

Who looked better?

Vienna Girardi Finds a New John

Jake who? Try John, people. Just John.

Vienna Girardi, who got engaged to Jake Pavelka on The Bachelor this spring, only to watch see their relationship implode in a display of gay rumors, televised blowouts, arguments over measuring furniture and so on, has a new man.

"About to head up to Runyon Canyon with Chloe and John," Vienna wrote on Twitter yesterday. "Yes, Im dating and he is amazing guy... I'm so Happy!!"

Of course she is. John Whoever probably puts out.

Vienna Takes the Cake

Vienna previously teased her new love on a Lopez Tonight appearance.

When the TBS talk show host asked her if she still believes she'll meet "The One,"Vienna Girardi coyly replied: "How do you know I haven't already?"

It's true ... how would we possibly.

After Jake, the bar is set pretty low. Everything from his possible cyborg status to their lack of intimacy to Vienna's spoiled dog contributed to one of the year's most memorable, albeit completely predictable celebrity breakups.

Possible sign of trouble for John? Chloe's name came first in the above Tweet about the trip to the canyon. Just sayin', man. Just sayin'.

Jesse James and Kat Von D: Kissing Passionately

Jesse James and Kat Von D are totally just friends. As in friends with benefits. Well, unless he kisses all his friends passionately, which we suppose is possible.

In Las Vegas Sunday, the motorcycle mogul checked out "BODIES: The Exhibition" at the Luxor Hotel & Casino with his tattoo artist / L.A. Ink star companion.

The twosome were "holding hands the whole time" during their visit, an eyewitness says, but that wasn't all. We're talking straight up mauling going on here.

According to an observer, Jesse James and Kat Von D "shared a passionate kiss" in the "circulatory room" of the exhibit. Guess we can't say "get a room" ...

Says the witness: James "stood behind her and was hugging her from behind." Ooh, better watch out, Kat. That's how it all starts, right Michelle McGee?

Jesse James and Kat Von D

Jesse James. Kat Von D. It was bound to happen.

Kat Von D (real name Katherine von Drachenberg) evidently had a great time. Before exiting, she signed the guest book, writing, "Completely mind-blowing!"

Imagine what she had to say about the Vanilla Gorilla after!

Despite this and other reported sightings of the affectionate pair in Vegas and West Hollywood, Von D's rep insists "They're just friends - that's all."

James' five-year marriage to Sandra Bullock famously imploded after his affair withMichelle "Bombshell" McGee, a tattooed stripper, came to light.

Back in May, Kat came out and defended McGee and other tattooed women, saying "You can't judge a book by its cover" and positing that "there has always been a negative stigma surrounding tattoos, especially on women."

Mistresses who help guys cheat on popular movie stars, then cash in on the story for their 15 minutes tend to carry a certain stigma too, of course.

Mel Gibson, Oksana Grigorieva Investigations Still Underway, Will Conclude Concurrently

The L.A. County District Attorney will be treating the Mel Gibson domestic violence investigation and the Oksana Grigorieva extortion probe as a "package deal."

According to reports, that means a decision will be made on whether to file chargesat the same time. Both investigations are ongoing. Both deny wrongdoing.

TMZ reports that the D.A. will make filing decisions on both investigations at the same time, once both investigations have concluded. The L.A. County Sheriff's Department is still a ways away from sending the extortion case to the D.A.

Basically, don't expect charges against Mel, Oksana or both for a while.

Mel and Oksana Happy

BETTER DAYS: Mel and Oksana used to be so happy together. Then the gardener, cigarettes and uncontrollable rage and possibly Violet Kowal got in the way.

Gibson has been accused of battering Oksana during the January 6 rampage with his then-girlfriend. His attorneys claim she has tried to extort money from him and may have used the secretly recorded Mel Gibson rants to that end.

On the Road with Kevin Jonas and Danielle Deleasa

While Joe Jonas continues to play the field - maybe dating Ashley Green here, possibly having illegal sex with Demi Lovato there - Kevin Jonas is simply a happily married young man.

the 23-year old married Danielle Deleasa in December... and the honeymoon hasn't really ended since! Danielle has joined husband on tour this summer, as the pair travel around the country together in an amenity-filled bus.

They found time to talk to USA Today last week about their lives and all the recent changes. Excerpts are below:

Danielle, on the perks of traveling together: "I get to be with him all the time... [and] the caterer has been teaching me new dishes."

Danielle, on being a fan: "I love watching people fawn over him. I'm a fan, too. I wish I could get out in the middle of it and scream along."

Cute and Married

Kevin, on his wife fitting in: "We spent the first two nights on [Joe and Nick's] bus, and that was fun. They joke around with her all the time, just like she's their sister."

Kevin, on keeping the romance alive: "We do date nights a lot. And we have breakfast every morning and walk around to see the sights. Like yesterday, we did a little shopping and went to Georgetown Cupcakes [in Washington]. They made us about two dozen cupcakes with the Jonas Brothers logo on them."

Will they have kids? "Everyone wants to know when you're having kids. They're just never satisfied," Kevin says. "We're just enjoying each other right now. But we'd love to see our kids running around and playing with Uncle Joe and Uncle Nick."
