David Archuleta was asked by a fan this morning if he'd be going on a mission for his church, since he's LDS and all.
How making Paula Abdul misty-eyed counts as spreading the word of Mormon is beyond us.

Since Kevin Federline has been in charge of Sean Preston and Jayden James, their lives are no longer a zoo -- they're an aquarium.
With a nanny and security in tow, K-Fed took the kiddies to the Long Beach Aquarium of the Pacific on Wednesday.
Kind of interesting since they already live in a fishbowl.

Britney Spears was a surprise guest at the finale of MTV's "Rock the Cradle" last night -- and we would have gotten a great interview with her about it ... if it weren't for power windows.
She didn't go on the show, she was just there to support her manager, Larry Rudolph, who is one of the judges.

With the R. Kelly kiddie-porn trial about to begin, a new bombshell has dropped – an aide for Kells may have paid off a woman for the return of a potentially incriminating tape. Only problem is: the woman in question is still going to testify against him anyway.
The Chicago Sun-Times says that the Atlanta woman was paid by an aide to give back a tape of herself and the alleged victim in a three-way with R. This witness is extremely important to the prosecution because the alleged victim is expected to testify that she isn't the underage girl in another videotape.
The trial starts later this morning.
Mischa Barton, or her rep anyway, is claiming that those shots – you know the ones – were aggressively Photoshopped and made her look more Babwa than Barton.
Lancome – the big French makeup firm – is suing Uma Thurman back, saying that she can't sue them for using old Lancome ads on Asian web sites and Canadian billboards.Filed under: Let's Get This Party Started
Barbara Walters played dumb -- or took the high road, depending on how you look at it -- when our camera guy asked her about her bitchfight with Star Jones.

The live-in lover of late Rat Packer Joey Bishop is suing a bunch of people, claiming they screwed her out of assets in Joey's estate.
Nora Garibotti claims Bishop's law firm and his agent, Ed Hookstratten, were responsible for revisions in Bishop's will that aced her out of Bishop's home on tony Lido Island in Newport Beach, along with "books, cash, furniture and other personal property." To make matters worse, Garibotti claims there's a clause that completely disinherits her if she contests the will and it was not Joey's intent to do that.
That's the short of it. It is one of the most frickin' complicated lawsuits we've ever reported on. Bishop changed his will a zillion times.
BTW, Garibotti has an interesting description on her relationship with Joey. "Ms. Garibotti was a close personal friend of Joey Bishop for approximately 24 years prior to his death. For the first 16 years....they golfed almost every day." Then, in 1999, after Bishop's wife died, she moved in with him.
The suit goes on to say, "In February, 2002, Mr. Bishop asked Ms. Garibotti to marry him, and she declined in order to avoid the publicity that she believed would interrupt their peaceful life together." Not so peaceful after all.

Poor Ashlee Simpson got one woman's hopes down at LAX today, expecting to see the duo behind "Solid" and not the chick who sang "La La."
Pete was there too ... and wait 'til you hear what he said their wedding theme will be. Here's a hint: No food after midnight.

Slash gets rocker points for driving that killer Aston Martin, but hitting up paparazzi for moolah, not cool!
Also, flipping off the paparazzi is badass ... but not so much when the paps ask you to do it.

Add Hitler to the long list of people who couldn't give a rat's ass about Prince Von A-Hole.
According to the royal pain-in-the-butt himself, the Prince's "adopted" grandfather, Kaiser Wilhelm II, was booted from Germany by Adolf back in the day. It's a bit of an embellishment (Adolf only blamed the guy for losing WWI), but if Wilhelm was anything like his grandson, it's not that hard to believe.

If there's a harsh custody battle brewing between Russell Simmons and ex Kimora Lee, then someone should really tell that to Russell.
Joe Montana's softer side was sought out by NFL defenses for years -- turns out his ex-wife just sold it to the highest bidder ... in the form of old college love letters!
The former 49ers quarterback is suing his first wife, Kim Moses, and a Texas auction house for selling love letters and memorabilia from his time at the University of Notre Dame. The other items include Joe's freshman I.D. card, a University of Notre Dame letter of intent and Joe and Kim's 1979 marriage certificate.
Joe is suing in excess of $75,000 -- claiming the items were obtained and sold by Moses without his consent.
