Cameron Diaz is probably trippin' this President's Day weekend after winning her libel suit against the National Enquirer, which claimed she was seen schmooching during the time of her relationship with Justin Timberlake with a producer of her MTV travel show. Then there's this group of celebs, who are simply basking in the glow of tripping all over themselves.
Tim Hardaway: While this year's NBA All-Stars get ready to do their thing in Vegas, former Miami Heat guard Tim Hardaway warmed things up Wednesday by joining the less illustrious ranks of the Career Suicide All-Stars. The play-by-play for that league sounds something like this: "Gibson inbounds the ball, brings it up to half-court; passes it to over Richards; Isaiah Washington takes it on the three-point line, throws it over to Andy Dick, who backhands to Hardaway in the paint... Slam dunk!" Hardaway quickly switched to the apology playbook, but it was not enough to stop New Jersey hair products outfit BaldGuyz from dropping him as their spokesperson. Forget about a trip to Tim Hardaway's U.S. 1 Car Wash in Miami; this no-longer-welcome-in-Vegas goof needs to drive straight to the nearest pharmacy and stock up on mouth wash.

Sure, we could do our usual thing and tag people like Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake for trying to outdo each other post breakup (Diaz, with her my-new-boyfriend-is-like-this-breadstick demo during a dinner at Cut in Beverly Hills, would likely win). But in the wake of Anna Nicole Smith's untimely death, it seems only fitting to invoke the exception rule, and take serious stock of those she left behind.
Dannielynn Hope Marshall: This young tyke is only five months old, but already she has lost a half brother and her mother. According to People Magazine, Dannielynn is being cared for in the Bahamas by the mother of Immigration Minister Shane Gibson, in advance of what will no doubt be an extremely ugly custody battle. Her mom idolized Marilyn Monroe, the blonde bombshell with whom Smith was often compared. But now it is Dannielynn who must suddenly follow in the footsteps of Norma Jean and other real-life celebrity orphans, such as Deborah Harry and Dana Plato.

There's still time to lay down a side bet on whether or not Prince's pants will split during the Super Bowl halftime show. But quite frankly, there's about as much chance of that happening as there is of Prince dedicating "Sign o' the Times" to one of these folks:
Paris Hilton: Joe Francis is spilling the beans about her oral sex skills on Howard Stern; reports from the set of "The Hottie and the Nottie" suggest you're flubbing your lines. Late in the week you managed to top all that via the release of another grainy video on the Internet, courtesy of that joker who turned the contents of your storage locker into ParisExposed.com. Instead of night vision, this one is in stereophonic fright vision, with you uttering both the Isaiah Washington F-word and the Michael Richards N-word while dancing the night away with sister Nicky and some frat boys. Hot it's not, and more than likely, by the time this Z List hits the TMZ website, you will have already humbly offered up the A-word to make amends. We never thought we'd say this, but it's actually better for you to put a boyfriend in your mouth than your own foot.

Is Gary Coleman so hard up for advance cash that he now has to rely on Sundance swag? Is Dustin "Screech" Diamond so desperate to keep his faux sex tape buzz going that he has to compete for attention with Gary Coleman? It's just the tip of this week's surreal (celebrity) life iceberg.
Sharon Stone: You'd think after her breasts bagged the Razzie Award nomination for "Worst Screen Couple" of 2006, this 48-year-old actress' basic instinct would be to keep them under wiry wraps. But no, there she was earlier this week, brazenly brawless at the Ivy in Beverly Hills. Stone is no longer the good kind of MILF -- e.g., a movie star we'd like to fraternize with ... now she's a movie star we'd like to forget. Her take for "Basic Instinct 2" dwarfed that of her other '06 paydays -- "Bobby," "Alpha Dog" and a three-episode arc on Showtime's "Huff." But just as original "Basic Instinct" scribe Joe Ezsterhas has been known to give CAA the one-finger salute, Stone may want to park in front of her agency for a few moments and flip the good folks at William Morris a similar thank you.

Who needs "The Twilight Zone" when you've got The Zone? In our dimension of substance and shadow, a pop tart can turn into a bumpkin at the stroke of midnight, a billionaire can brawl with a lesbian, and celebs of all shapes and sizes can -- at any moment -- fall flat on their expensively exfoliated faces.
Marilyn Manson: Seven years of courtship, one year of marriage and now, apparently, an unknown number of irreconcilable differences. Playboy model and current make-up cover girl Dita Von Tiese is apparently letting the shock rocker know she no longer wants him to be her MAC daddy, leading wags to immediately speculate as to who will get custody of the eyeliner. There are also a couple of dogs and cats in the mix, but the real question for us is whether or not MM (aka Brian Warner) will be inspired to put his own hard-drinking, three-quarter beat spin on that old Barenaked Ladies classic. Let's all hum it together now: "Lying in bed, just like Brian Warner did..."

In some ways, this weekend is all about Vegas, from Michael Jackson's rumored return, to the New Year's Eve bashes hosted by Pam Anderson, Kid Rock and Britney. But as these Strip partiers make their hazy resolutions, they should bear in mind that what happens in the Zone definitely doesn't stay in the Zone.
Rosie O'Donnell: Last week, to the consternation of some of our readers, we dinged The Donald because we felt his behavior was akin to that of the schoolyard bully picking on the fat girl. What a difference a week of blogging makes. Although Rosie had a perfect opportunity, post-Christmas, to surf away from it all and let "the combover" continue to blow hard in the wind, she crossed the Moving Type line by labeling him "a pimp." In one of many subsequent retort interviews given by Trump, he went here: "Can you imagine the parents of Kelli [O'Donnell]... when she said, 'Mom, Dad, I just fell in love with a big, fat pig named Rosie.' Can you imagine the expression on their face?"

It took months for the Three Wise Men to ferry across the Holy Land with gifts of frankincense, gold and myrrh ... but it only takes a few days In the Zone for celebs to give TMZ the gift of laughter.
Nicole Richie: While Kirstie Alley was sighted this week looking like her old "Fat Actress" self, her wafer-thin reality counterpart got the jump on "The Simple Life 5" by ditching Paris and merging some 420 with the 134. As for the Vicodin, which most of us take after a root canal, Richie swears it's to dull the pain of menstrual cramps. Think of it as the "Not Guilty by Reason of Fertility" defense. We know Lionel has been resisting the temptation to write a song about this, but after Kirstie Alley used his Commodores classic "Brickhouse" for her Oprah bikini coming out party, we say it's time for an intervention ballad. Suggested title: "Save You, Save Me."

With "Snakes on a Plane" sure to make a bundle at the box office this weekend, movie critics who were bypassed in favor of a grassroots Internet campaign may feel somewhat downcast. But at least they can take some consolation in the fact that they are not alone.
Justin Timberlake: The former Mouseketeer might want to watch his Sexyback the next time he does an interview with a music publication. His free association observations about "American Idol" winner Taylor Hicks ("can't carry a tune in a bucket") and smoking ("nicotine is more addictive than heroin") - uttered respectively in "Fashion Rocks" and the UK "Observer's Music Monthly" - had publicist Ken Sunshine working in overdrive. Miraculously, Timberlake somehow managed to talk to MTV.com about Lance Bass coming out of the boy band closet without making it a tongue tripping trifecta. No, that honor belonged to Grandma Sadie Bomar, who suggested in Grazia Magazine that Cameron Diaz shouldn't plan the honeymoon just yet.

On this last weekend in July, many of our favorites are hunkered down in places like St. Tropez, St. Barths or the St. Regis Resort in Bora Bora. But there's still plenty of heat wave-induced stumbling to contemplate right here in the Zone.

Sometimes, the act of scaring up bad karma in the Zone is a matter of subtlety rather than severity. This weekend's roll call brings together a group of folks for whom the portent of things to come is as powerful as the initial faux pas.

Zzzzz... That could be the sound of Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford sleeping in this morning in Malibu. But it's not.

In this case, it's merely our cue to point out some of the latest denizens of the Zone who have tripped over the velvet rope. Enjoy.

You might think that when a week has only three workdays instead of the usual five, that it would be difficult for denizens of the Zone to find ways to trip over the velvet rope. But you'd be wrong. It's the dog days of summer all right, and as we head into a monstrous "Pirates of the Caribbean" opening weekend, here's a look at some of the temporarily grounded VIP's. Savvy?
Marc Cherry: Just a year ago, the "Desperate Housewives" creator was the toast of Hollywood, basking in the glow of 15 Primetime Emmy Award nominations (the show would go on to win six), nods for three of his four lead actresses, and universal critical praise. But after TV reviewers generally thumbed their noses at the second season, the show yesterday collected only seven Primetime Emmy Award nominations, mostly of the hairstyling and costumes variety. The Emmy's are a strange beast, with shows and individual actors judged solely on the merits of a single submitted episode. For some unknown reason, Cherry sent in for Outstanding Comedy Series consideration the Season Two opener - clearly not one of the better episodes - and now, he's paying for that error in judgment.

It's time for our weekly look at some of the less fortunate VIP's bouncing around the Zone, those whose latest career pursuits, romantic achievements and-or general demeanor relegate them to the temporary status of "Very Ineffectual Person."

Unlike the guest list for a hot Hollywood party or nightclub, where VIP stands for "Very Important Person," the Z List is where you'll find celebrities relegated to the "Very Insignificant" roll call.

Here's a look at some of this week's prominent Z List VIP's.
