Miley Cyrus at Disneyland

She might not be old enough to get a sponsored bash in Las Vegas, but she’ll certainly be old enough to take your money.

For ’ upcoming birthday, the teen star will be celebrating at the place responsible for her career: The Land of Disney. On October 5, the soon-to-be Sweet 16-er (whose actual birthday is November 23) will take over Disneyland in California...and she’s allowing paying ‘friends’ to join her.

People and Hello! shell out $14 million for Brangelina's baby pics

After leaving Brangelina fans on the edge of their seats (myself included) for weeks without seeing their twins, the couple have decided that it is finally time to introduce them to the world.

Much to no one’s surprise, People magazine won the bidding rights to the twins’ photo shoot in the U.S. and Canada, and Hello! magazine won the international rights. Although there has been no official release as to the amount, sources have claimed the figure is around $14 million.

Compared to previous biddings on babies like their older sister Shiloh ($4 million) and Jennifer Lopez’s twins ($6 million), the Jolie-Pitt twins have definitely set a new record for costing a magazine so much.

Lifestyles talks sex with Miley Cyrus And just when I thought that the world could possibly go for at least a week without Miley Cyrus news, the troubled pre-teen is catapulted into the spotlight yet again—thanks to a condom company, at that!

It was reported that Lifestyles Condoms wants the Hannah Montana star to be their new spokesgirl.

“Pop culture proves that teens are more ready than ever to discuss the subject of sex,” says the company’s VP of marketing, Carol Carrozza. “We believe that Miley is both influential and relatable to this afflicted set — and is the obvious choice to get the message of safe sex out to teens across America.”

As hilariously entertaining as this latest Miley Cyrus “news” is, one can never forget about that slightly powerful and daunting company called Disney, which is always shielding their cash cow at every constant news flash. In this case, what are they going to do? Deny everything, of course.

“We never received an offer, nor would she consider the offer,” her rep stated, although judging by all of those photos, Miley seems like she would be the best gal for promoting sex!

Lily has lost her leash!

Seemingly back on track with her new, tamed brunette hair color, British pop singer Lily Allen can’t seem to do everything right just yet! It seems as if the troubled tabloid target completely forgot to grab her dog leash when she went out the other day.

While I’m glad that Lily has advocated adoption at local shelters, I still don’t see why she would ever forget her poor dog’s leash—look at the dog’s poor face!

Maybe Lily simply forgot that despite her new ‘do, we’re still keeping a close watch on her. As if that awards incident wasn’t a mere month ago…

Paris Hilton , 27, once promised the world she would do more good works in her life. This isn’t to say she won’t still star on somewhat trashy reality shows - she’s working on a project with MTV right now, in fact - but the heiress apparently isn’t afraid to give some of her millions away.

Hilton recently donated an “extremely generous” undisclosed sum to the to-be-constructed Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. “I am proud to make a donation and lend my name to the fund raising effort to help children who are facing terribly serious diseases,” Hilton said of her gift. The center Hilton donated to is scheduled to open in 2010.

Jolie-Pitt family

Are you expecting your 5th and 6th child? Have you recently purchased a $60 million castle? Well, then you’re probably cutting back on some of your other expenses. But then again, you’re probably not Brad Pitt or .

Today, the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict announced that the saintly couple has generously donated a cool $1 million to its organization. Once distributed, the funds will help children - American and Iraqi - affected by the war overseas. (As if the couple didn’t have enough kids to worry about.)

In a statement, Pitt said he wants their gesture to inspire more acts of charity. “We hope to encourage others to give to these great organizations.”

Ugh. Could these two possible make me love/hate them more?

Johnny Depp and Lindsay Lohan at the 2008 MTV Movie Awards

Very much like Mel Gibson extended a helping hand to fallen pop star Britney Spears, sexy Sweeney Todd star Johnny Depp invited a troubled Lindsay Lohan to his Caribbean island! Tabloids could not be any happier.

Upon meeting her at the MTV Movie Awards last Sunday, Johnny welcomed the confused actress to his own private island, aptly named F*** Off Island. He and his longtime partner, Vanessa Paradis, travel there to escape the paparazzi (as I’m sure everyone remembers how Johnny has dealt with them in the past).

Britney Spears Now, I’ve heard it all. It may be April first, but this is not a joke….at least, I don’t think it is. Animal rights group PETA was so blown away by seeing on How I Met Your Mother that the group has offered her a job. No, not as a spokesperson. As a receptionist.

Spears would be given $1000, to be donated to a children’s charity, if she were to accept the gig, offered to her by the very group which has lambasted her in the past. PETA sent Spears a letter dated March 27, 2008. According the letter, this job could last for only an hour, giving Brit the opportunity to see what they (PETA employees) deal with every day and why animal rights are so very important. The letter reads: “You will see firsthand the problems that we deal with every day. You would be able to help the cats and dogs who linger in animal shelters because people have chosen to buy animals from breeders or pet stores.”

Tyra Banks worshippers may be a bit shocked this week to discover that their beloved supermodel-turned-entrepreneur may be suing a stage four cervical cancer survivor.

The mother of two, thirty-nine year-old Jodi Hughes, was both thrilled and surprised to find out that her two sons had won her a makeover spot on Tyra’s “Holiday Girl Party!” episode. Not only was the makeover a real letdown consisting of nothing more than a new dress and hair weave, but Hughes claims that producers would not allow her two sons (one of whom is blind) to enter the building, leaving them with no supervision or care while she received her “makeover.”

Furthermore, Hughes had to have the weave surgically removed due to an infection it caused on her scalp; all of the hair she grew completely gone after having undergone chemotherapy for years.

Hughes has asked nothing more from Banks and her team but an apology—she has not requested any monetary compensation for her mistreatment. However, Tyra showed her love towards Hughes when she threatened a lawsuit for violating her gag-order, which prevents her from talking about the show.

Someone told her that she definitely isn’t the next , right?
