TMZ spotted Joel Madden's baby mama leaving La Conversation in West Hollywood today, where Richie had the helpful assistance of two gun toting boys in brown to get her through the paparazzi crush waiting for her outside the cafe. Pregnant lady comin' thru!

The seemingly interminable divorce battle between Lindsay Lohan's parents Michael and Dina is finally and officially over.

A Long Island judge just minutes ago issued his final judgment in the divorce proceedings between the Lohans, granting Dina the split she wanted. We're told that the judge actually complimented the couple for doing the right thing for the kids, and for working "through the night" to get the final details ironed out. No financial details were disclosed.

TMZ cameras caught Little Miss Pregnant hitting up the gym dayside on Wednesday, showing off her tiny bump in a tight white tank top after a workout at Equinox. Richie was also spotted getting her eat on at Da Silvano with a Ray-Banned buddy in the afternoon and later hit up The Bowery Hotel for dinner with DJ/friend-to-the-stars Samantha Ronson.

Standing by her man, but not exactly near him, Richie was then mobbed by TV crews, paps and fans as she made her way into Joel's show at Madison Garden, where his band opened up for Justin Timberlake. Madden then ditched Nicole again to DJ at the Village Pourhouse with owner Michael Sinensky to celebrate the bar's 1st anniversary party.

TMZ cameras were out in NYC last night, where photogs caught the soon-to-be-parents returning to their hotel after a dinner date at La Esquina in Soho. Ever-protective of his lady and fetus, Madden politely warned photogs to "get the f**k out of the way" as they exited the car -- and into their Midtown hotel.

Sexy 25-year-old heiress extraordinaire Ivanka Trump -- who has yet to flash her panties, get a DUI or go to jail -- stepped out with her outspoken buffoon pops, to fete her cover of Stuff magazine's Fall Fashion Preview issue on Tuesday. Unfortunately, Stuff's demise is imminent and is expected to fold any second now. You're fired!

The Spawn of Brangelina is listed among the credits, below the likes of Cate Blanchett, Tilda Swinton and Elle Fanning. Shiloh is credited below Dakota's little sis? Somebody call her agent!

One photog asked the aging crooner how he felt about Nicole's pregnancy, to which he smiled and said, "I'm happy, babe!" One might even say he's dancing on the ceiling!

Richie continued to chew the fat with Diane on "Good Morning America," and insisted that she put on a whole TEN pounds since she became pregnant, and claimed that she'd be fine with gaining "forty or fifty" pounds if she had to for the baby. She also said that she hasn't taken any drugs or drink since she found out she's carrying.

The unmarried couple was snapped riding around Beverly Hills as they attempted to pick up some takeout. Nicole is eating for one now!

Richie, who has (finally) admitted to being four months pregnant, handled Sawyer's questions like a champ. When asked about putting people's lives at risk with her DUI arrest last December, Richie said, "If I could personally apologize to every single person that has lost a loved one from drunk driving, I would." Not bad, Nicole. Not bad at all.

In an exclusive sit-down with Diane Sawyer, the celebutante talks for the first time about the impending birth of her child with Good Charlotte singer Joel Madden.

ABC says in the interview, which airs on "Good Morning America" Thursday and Friday and on

"20/20" Friday night, Richie "speaks candidly about why this particular constellation of young female stars -- Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears, among others -- have behaved badly so publicly." She should know!

As for her upcoming stint in the slammer, Richie told Sawyer, "I have a responsibility and it's something that I did wrong, and if I could personally apologize to every single person that has lost a loved one from drunk driving I would," she said of her recent guilty plea. "And unfortunately I can't, but this is my way of paying my dues and taking responsibility and being an adult."

Jaime and fiance Eric Cubiche celebrated her 30th birthday -- and the return of her old body -- with an '80s glam rock-themed party in Vegas on Friday at PURE nightclub's Pussycat Dolls Lounge. Don't cha wish your mommy was hot like me!

During last night's four-letter fest in honor of the "Flavor of Love" star, Kimmel was poking fun at the fact that Flav has several children with several different women, when he said that "Chris Benoit is a better father than you." What, too soon?

A TMZ staffer who was at the roast (airing August 12 on Comedy Central) just happened to be sitting next to two censors for the network. When Kimmel made the crack, the censors looked at each other and laughed while shaking their heads "no." One immediately put down "Chris Benoit" on a list of jokes to cut. Another joke to make the list came at the end, when the Queen of Mean, Lisa Lampanelli, called the "Flavor of Love" girls sprinkled throughout the audience "nappy headed bitches."

Say it isn't so! Brandon "Greasy Bear" Davis' hard-partying, firecrotch-calling ways have finally caught up with him. Page Six reports that Davis' wealthy oil family is so disgusted by his behavior that they've financially cut him off.

Greasy Bear's been asking friends for funds to stay afloat, but these days, many of them, including Paris Hilton and Stavros Niarchos, aren't calling him back. Oh, how the Greasy Bear has fallen!

The oily heir has reportedly holed up in Miami with one of his few remaining pals, music producer Scott Storch.

Britney Spears falls in love with dogs just about as quickly as she falls in love with men, y'all. Brit-Brit picked up a new Yorkie puppy yesterday after walking into a Bel Air pet store and spending less than a half hour with the pup. Take that, Jason Alexander!

The pop trainwreck plunked down a cool $3K for the pooch, who, reports People, has been named London. Also new to the Brit menagerie of weird and wacky animals: a parakeet she picked up last month.

Crabby Simon Cowell weighed in on the ongoing feud between Kelly Clarkson and Sony/BMG boss Clive Davis -- and he's firmly in the Davis camp. Clarkson and Davis butted heads over Clarkson's newest album -- with a catty Kelly saying to Davis, "You're 80, you're not supposed to like my album."

Cowell fired back in Davis' defense, telling EXTRA "Clive Davis at 80 is better than 99 percent of the people in the music business in their 20s, 30s and 40s ... and he's not 80 ... [Davis] is the boss of the record company, and it's his job to advise."

Richie told FOXNews.com that, "she keeps apologizing to me. I told her 'You're doing exactly what you're supposed to be doing to your father at this age." Talk about arrested development!

Poor Lindsay Lohan: disaster seems to strike whenever shes' behind the wheel. It's a wonder the girl ever gets anywhere at all! It must be all those really tricky L.A. roads. Yeah, that's it!

Was it a pregnancy bump, or had Nicole merely decided to eat a sandwich? For weeks, rumors swirled about whether or not the skinny mini was pregnant -- or just eating again. Turns out Nicole -- always a trendsetter -- is going to be the first celebutante mommy in town.

First there was the quickie Jason Alexander wedding. Then came the decision to marry K-Fed and the ensuing divorce. Then there was the partying with Paris. The head-shaving debacle. The paparazzi umbrella-smashing incident. The panty-free partying pictures. The rehab. The post-rehab. The list goes on and on. When will it end?

For an oil heir with so much cash, how come Brandon Davis can't seem to figure out a way to stop sweating? Somebody get this guy a towel!

For months now, poor Matt has been wandering the world, playing his bongos and collecting sexy accolades sans shirt. Where-oh-where could Matty Boy's t-shirt have gone? And as long as he's looking so good, does anyone truly care if he ever finds it again?

These two boobs and Heidi's new boobs have managed to stretch their 15 minutes of fame to 20. What's even crazier is that oily, obnoxious and obviously conniving Pratt has actually convinced this girl to marry him. She must be the dumbest blonde around.

Is there a dearth of Victoria's Secrets and La Perlas in L.A.? No Agent Provocateurs around? That must be the reason why so many stars are caught panty-free these days. Or perhaps someone's panty-raiding the underwear drawers of Britney, Lindsay and the like. Mysterious!
