Mischa Barton: Behind the Curve

Mischa Barton has called on Hollywood to turn its back on extreme dieting and celebrate "womanly curves" instead. The former O.C. actress worries that pictures of skeletal stars in magazines and newspapers is promoting eating disorders among young girls, and wants publications to stop their unhealthy obsession with weight. She says, "It’s so wrong to try and stifle womanly curves, it shouldn’t be promoted. This unhealthy look should be abandoned."

O-kay. I agree with your sentiment, Mischa. Really, I do. But maybe we should define "curves" before planning our celebration. Becauses my definition doesn't involve pelvic bones with a license to kill:

No, the curve of the bone doesn't count. Nor does that plaid diaper count as an actual article of clothing.

Hilary Duff's Stalker Arrested

Hilary Duff at the Children's Choice Awards last night

Hilary Duff's stalker was arrested on Friday after threatening to kill the popstar this weekend. Manhattan Beach police arrested 18-year-old Maksim Miakovsky on charges of making criminal threats and stalking. Hilary and her boyfriend Joel Madden applied for a restraining order about a month ago against the Russian immigrant, alleging he had threatened to kill Madden and "engage in dramatic actions to get [Duff's] attention." Sources reportedly told TMZ that a private investigator contacted Miakovsky at a hotel on Friday and that the teen had stated his intent to kill Hilary at the Children's Choice Awards. He is currently being held on $200,000 bail and scheduled to be arraigned on Tuesday.

Good to hear they've put the stalker behind bars. Now the Hair Police needs to respond to the complaint I filed about Hilary's ill-advised dark locks.

Jennifer Garner Tickled by Ticket

Jennifer Garner has a surprisingly upbeat attitude about her parking ticket. Me? Well, my reaction usually involves a finger, a very mature pout, an even more mature kick to the curb, and a few choice words about my, um, admiration for the dedication of those in the parking enforcement profession. (Not necessarily in that order.)

Cameron Diaz's "Nosy" Decision

A picture from Cameron's recent photo shoot for W magazine

Cameron Diaz is going under the knife to repair her nose, which she has broken four times (!) -- most recently when she smashed her face into her surfboard while celebrating her birthday in Hawaii. (What a way to ring in your 31st, huh?) Cam tells W magazine that she's even started experiencing breathing problems: “I’m over it. I’m getting it fixed.” According to The New York Post, Cam was so impressed with Ashlee Simpson’s nose job that she contacted Ashlee's doctor and booked an appointment.

No word yet on whether Cameron got the same "Kate Hudson Clone Package" that Ashlee purchased.

Now turn it back to blonde. No, seriously -- turn it back. Please? You look like one of those sad clowns that frightened me as a child. Okay, they still frighten me. You are frightening me...! Stop looking at me like that! Mommy...?)

Another Reason to Love Paris Hilton

While attending a Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony this week for the owner of the Lakers, Paris Hilton was overheard complaining that she should have a star on the famous stretch of sidewalk. "I don't even know half these people," Paris reportedly whined. "And like most of them are dead. I should totally have a star. I deserve one. I'm one of the most famous people on earth!"

She is so right. I would totally pitch in to buy her a star -- way, way up in the sky where she and Tinkerbell could live happily ever after. (Okay, so they would burn to a crisp, but we could live happily ever after!)

Quote of the Day

Mickey Rourke: The way I prefer to remember him

"[My therapist] saved my f**king life and my career. I don't care what Tom Cruise says about therapy. Fu*k him. C*nt. Pick on poor Brooke Shields. People need medicine and they need therapists. Let the Scientologists go fu*king live on a planet of their own."
