Felicity Huffman's Desperate Smackdown
Did Felicity Huffman really hit 11-year-old Rachel Fox while shooting last Sunday’s episode of Desperate Housewives—and will the slap come back to haunt her during the upcoming two-hour season finale?
Either way, Rachel ain’t spillin’.
But no need to call Child Protective Services. It was all part of a day’s work when Huffman’s Lynette Scavo smacked her evil stepdaughter, Kayla, played by Rachel.
When I asked Rachel this morning just how real the slap was, she laughed, “Did it look real to you?”
When I told her it did, she simply said, “Good.”
And that's not the only thing she's clamming up about...
Miley's Got Milk
Miley Cyrus is back in front of the camera, only this time for a much more wholesome cause. And not, it seems, a moment too soon.
Disney's tween queen is the latest celeb to don a dairy 'stache for the ubiquitous Got Milk? campaign.
Titled "Girl Power," the ad, a necessary and well-timed departure from her Vanity Fair photo session, reads: "Actress by day. Rocker by night. I've got to keep fit to keep up. So I drink milk. Some studies suggest that teens who choose milk over sugary drinks tend to be leaner and the protein helps build muscle. It's the best of both worlds."
With any luck, Cyrus' milk campaign won't just build bones—it'll also assuage some achy-breaky parent hearts.
Miley: Give Peace a Chance
We've really missed the two-fingered flashings since Miley Cyrus moved to Nashville to shoot the Hannah Montana movie.
(Apparently, the town's in short supply of red carpet opportunities—or coffee shops, which prompted plenty of java-fueled peace offerings in Hollywood.)
But as today's on-set sighting proves, the harmony-loving tween queen is still spreading the good word.
May we return the gesture with a special photo gallery of stars who love the peace symbol—and positive attention—just as much as Miley does.
Miley Cyrus Has "7 Things" to Say
Before she was a green-bra-flashing, nude-back modeling symbol of all that is wrong with America, Miley Cyrus was a singer. And now she’s got a new song!
If you can properly download the plug-ins for this site, you (a) will be able to hear "7 Things" and (b) will prove yourselves to be smarter than us (not a terribly difficult feat, so don’t gloat).
Judging by the lyrics, Miley got her heart hurt pretty bad—but can’t wait to go back for more:
“And the seventh thing I hate the most that you do / You make me love you.”
Aw, Miley. Who is this jerk? Meet us for an Ice Blended, and we’ll chat...

Miley Cyrus' New Singing Partner
Miley Cyrus is teaming up with—ready for this?—John Travolta.
Not only are they both voicing characters in the upcoming animated flick Bolt, but Travolta’s wife, Kelly Preston, tells me they could be making music together.
“Johnny may sing with Miley,” Preston said at yesterday’s Step Up Women’s Network’s Inspiration Awards luncheon at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.
Preston and Travolta’s 8-year-old daughter, Ella, is a longtime Cyrus fan. They first met Cyrus when the Hannah Montana star was opening for Cheetah Girls during their concert tour about two years ago. “We [now] know Miley very well,” Preston said, “and she’s a sweetheart.”

Is the "Next Miley" Already Going Hollywood?
It sounds like Selena Gomez is movin’ in on Miley Cyrus’ musical territory.
As I first told you, Disney execs are looking to make Gomez their next breakout, especially in response to the Hanna Montana star's recent controversy with the Vanity Fair pic.
Well, there's more...
Osmond Blasts Cyrus' Siring Skills
Pot, meet kettle.
Marie Osmond, that doll-making savior of Middle America, has uncharacteristically lashed out at Billy Ray Cyrus' parenting skills in the wake of daughter Miley's back-baring photo flap.
"My parents never, never left us alone," the little-bit-country one told AOL Television. "We always had some form of a guardian or something with us, a guardian that would represent what they would have done. But in [Miley's] case, her dad stepped out [of the photo session], and that's when it happened.
"How do you say no to somebody like Annie [Leibovitz] when you're a little girl? It's an interesting thing that happened with her."
Also interesting, perhaps at least to Cyrus, is that Osmond's own adopted teenage son checked himself into rehab just last year.
In his defense, when there's no form of a guardian around—when they're busy, say, fainting on national television—it's hard to say no to somebody like Jack [Daniels].

Burning Q's: Vanishing Tats & MILF-y Hotness
What's up with MILF-qualified Cameron Diaz being cast in What Happens in Vegas? Since she's closer to 40 than she is to 30, the movie looks creepy/ridiculous.
—K.S.
Funny, I just assumed Ashton Kutcher was a method actor. His real-life wife, Demi Moore, is 45, you know. Let's answer more, more, more of your burning Q's!
Is Hannah Montana being replaced because of Miley's Vanity Fair picture?

Miley Sends Shout-out to "Amazing" Fans
Miley Cyrus was fully dressed and ready for her close-up Saturday night.
Performing onstage for the first time since last week's Vanity Fair photo flap, the Hannah Montana star headlined a Disney-sponsored concert in Orlando, and thanked her screaming minions for their support.
"First of all, I think all of us here can say thank you," she said before beginning her set. "I can't think of how many would stand in the rain to come in here. Thank you all for coming out tonight, you're all amazing."

Breaking News
Miley to Skip Red Carpet "Return"
Maybe Miley Cyrus has had enough of flashbulbs for awhile.
The Disney Channel phenom will not be attending a network media party in Orlando Friday, what was to have been her first public appearance since the incredibly controversial results of her recent photo shoot for Vanity Fair.
Cyrus' name had been on the guest list for weeks, long before Annie Leibovitz's eye for art threw the blogosphere into a tizzy and started a massive debate over whether the 15-year-old Hannah Montana star was still a proper role model for her fellow youngsters.
Disney, which is hosting the party for the stars and execs in town to film the Disney Channel Games, a celeb-studded charity competition, had no further comment on that particular scheduling change.
According to a network rep, however, Cyrus is still "100 percent performing on Saturday night" at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando. The concert will be televised this summer as part of the special-event series.
So, obviously the teen queen hasn't entirely shucked the spotlight. She was also photographed at Disney World earlier today.
Then again, maybe she just really wanted to feel like a kid again.
Miley Turns Her Back on Destiny
All Hope is gone for Miley Cyrus. All Destiny, too.
The slightly tarnished Disney star is about to find out what exactly is in a name, as a Los Angeles judge officially signed off on her moniker switch this morning, legally waving goodbye to Destiny Hope Cyrus and ushering in the official era of Miley Ray. (Check out the court docs.)
Hopefully, not a moment too late.
The name change petition was first filed on behalf of the 15-year-old on March 14 by parents Billy Ray and Leticia Cyrus in Los Angeles Superior Court.
As for justification for the request, the couple wrote that "Destiny Hope Cyrus has been commonly known as Miley Cyrus since she was a young child. The change of name is requested to make her commonly used name the same as her legal name."
Finally, a Cyrus parenting decision Disney can get behind.
