4) Tim Just Has GOTTA KNOW: Will Britney be coming to Milwaukee, Wisconsin anytime soon, and if so, when?
As of right now, it appears to TMZ that Britney is focusing more on her career as a mother as opposed to her career on tour. She recently announced on'The Late Show' that she is expecting her second child with hubby Kevin Federline. Unless she plans on toting her babies on tour, we don't think you can expect Ms. Spears in Milwaukee. Take a look at 'Britney's Big Announcement.
5) Michael Has Just GOTTA KNOW: What's going on with Gwen Stefani?
May 26, 2006 marked an epic day in the lives of Gwen Stefani and husband Gavin Rossdale -- Gwen gave birth to Kingston James McGregor Rossdale, the couple's first child together. Since Kingston's birth, Gwen has no definite plans as of yet to get back in the studio to begin recording, according to her spokesman, Dave Tomberlin. However, we're sure that putting all of her time and energy into her new family are top priority. Take a look at TMZ's story on the blessed event.
6) Elizabeth Has Just GOTTA KNOW: I think Jesse James is amazing! I can't believe he would find someone like Sandra Bullock appealing, especially since knowing who he has been with in the past. Where did he and Sandra meet?
Elizabeth, you hit the nail right on the head. We, too, think the Jesse-Sandra union is a bit shocking. But according to James, they're "so similar, it's scary." The pair met when Sandra brought her godson to West Coast Choppers, where he says he fell hard for the actress. They wed last July and since then James says that his relationship with Sandra "makes me feel like I can do anything.... She pushes me to be a better person." As for what Jesse can do for Sandra, he can continue to protect her from long-time stalker, whose restraining order was recently extended for another three years.

Sheriff deputies were dispatched on the behalf of the Department of Children and Family Services to Spears' Malibu home, but charges were not pursued.

Is Fergie Prego?
THE RUMOR: Are Fergie (Black Eyed Pea) and Josh Duhamel expecting a baby?
WHERE IT STARTED: When Fergie showed up for the Grammy's last February, it seemed she had the telltale bump. There were, however, mixed signals, since The Black Eyed Peas were about to start a U.S. and European tour -- never a good idea when you're expecting a baby.
HOW IT SPREAD: It's no secret -- Fergie and 'Las Vegas' star Josh Duhamel are an item. So, when Star Magazine reported that the singer was 8 weeks pregnant as of April 17, the rumor spread like wildfire. By the way, Star Mag also reported a while back that Fergie and Josh had just gotten engaged.
THE TMZ LOWDOWN: We went right to the source, or close enough. TMZ got in touch with Fergie's sister last Friday. Lil' sis did not mince words -- 100% NOT pregnant. She also said that Fergie and Josh "are very much in love" but there is definitely no ring in the picture, at least not yet.
RUMOR #1: Is Anna Nicole Smith pregnant?
Britney to Letterman: 'I'm Pregnant'
David Letterman had a surprise guest on his show Tuesday... a guest who dropped a bombshell!
Britney Spears made an unexpected appearance on 'The Late Show' and confirmed to the world what has been rumored for months that yes, she is in fact pregnant with her second child.
Both Britney's publicist and a source for 'The Late Show' confirmed the story.
Is Anna Nicole Pregnant?
THE RUMOR: Is Anna Nicole Smith pregnant?
HOW IT STARTED: Star Magazine reported that Anna Nicole is pregnant and the father is her "secret boyfriend of several years."
HOW IT SPREAD: Star reported that the alleged boyfriend is Larry Birkhead, a freelance entertainment reporter/photographer. Birkhead declined to comment to Star. The day after the story broke, the New York Daily News picked up the rumor with a new spin -- that Birkhead himself was "boasting of impending fatherhood."
The Daily News was even more specific, reporting that Smith was five months pregnant.
THE TMZ LOWDOWN: Birkhead changed his response from an initial no comment to a denial. So, was Birkhead asked to change his response? Birkhead would not go further with TMZ than to deny the pregnancy rumors, but here's where the plot thickens. A source connected with Anna Nicole scoffs at the notion that Birkhead impregnated her, though the source would not confirm if she is indeed pregnant.
But another source insists Smith and Birkhead were having an intimate relationship. So why the effort to distance Smith from Birkhead, even though the two have had a relationship? It makes rumors of a pregnancy more credible.
