Famous Food

Aussie hothead Russel Crowe, hockey fanatic Tim Robbins, and "Speed" demon Dennis Hopper were mobbed for autographs. "The Doors" alums Oliver Stone, Val Kilmer and Meg Ryan reunited, and Guinness fan Colin Farrell and a beardless Benicio Del Toro crammed inside as well.

TMZ obtained photos taken at Madeo's, where Clooney and Fabio later got into a shoving match. Sources inside tell us that several women who had won a dinner with Fabio were sitting at his table snapping photos of the "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" hunk, when Clooney apparently thought they were shooting pix of him -- and gave them the finger! When George questioned the group about shooting pics of him in a private restaurant, Fabio came to their defense -- and allegedly, it got a little physical.

Don't mess with Fabio!

The 58-year-old Black Sabbath frontman-turned-reality star is holding an online contest, where the winner -- and three pals -- get to have a pre-Thanksgiving dinner with Ozzy at his new L.A. pad. Can you picture that dinner mumble conversation?! The Prince of Darkness will even make his signature Yorkshire pudding. On second thought, mama, I'm coming home!

TMZ has learned that Britney's self-arranged photo shoot and interview with OK! Magazine was a complete disaster. We're told that the photos are so bad, execs at the magazine are, at this moment, trying to decide whether to report what actually happened -- or sanitize the truth to protect the pop train wreck.

According to multiple sources, Britney's behavior during the interview was "nothing less than a meltdown." She was, according to our sources, "completely out of it" during the shoot. The photos are "so bad" we've learned, that to publish them could "kill her career."

Apparently, Brit Brit's eyes rolled back in her head at one point, causing her to look half dead. Her mood, we're told, was extremely erratic. She took frequent bathroom breaks our source says, and each time she returned her mood would change. She was also completely paranoid during the entire interview, fearing at one point the ceiling was about to cave in on her. Out of control y'all!

We've also learned that Brit had some issues with hygiene on the set as well. At one point, Britney ordered up some fried chicken to munch on. We're told after she chowed down, she wiped her hands on a several thousand dollar dress that she was wearing for the shoot, staining it with grease. Yuck! One of her dogs also needed some assistance in the housebreaking department. Our on-set spy says that the dog pooped all over the floor, and Brit used (what else?) -- a dress to clean it up! How trashtastic!

"Little Miss Sunshine's" Abigail Breslin is only 11 -- and already has everyone eating out of The Palm of her hand! Move ovah Dakota Fanning ... there's a new kid in town!

The preciously annoying Oscar-nominated celebutween has teamed up with The Palm steakhouse to cook up the chain's first ever summer kids menu. Need a highchair?

Starting July 24, moguls-in-training will be able to choose from items like filet mignon tenders, mac & cheese, steak or sweet potato fries, apple cobbler and brownie cheesecake sundae. Good thing childhood obesity isn't an epidemic! The menu will also include a "child-friendly" version of the their popular Strawberry Mint Lemonade Cocktail. Lindsay Lohan would be proud!

Don't be surprised if you see Queen Latifah at FatBurger -- working!

The raptress is getting into the fast food biz by opening a FatBurger franchise in Miami. Would you like fries with that?!

Fergie's obsession with Taco Bell could mean free food for you -- if the Black Eye'd Pea ever feels like runnin' for the border after a concert.

TMZ has obtained a letter written to The Dutchess by Greg Creed, President of Taco Bell, offering her an "ultimate after-party" at any local Taco Bell near a stop on her concert tour, where she and her fans can enjoy free Fourthmeals after the concert. All Ferg has to do is contact them a week in advance, and she and the crowd "will be served free Extreme Cheese and Beef Quesadillas for three hours" following one of her shows. Ay, ay, ay!

Ono was reportedly part of a canine-chewing stunt at a London radio station yesterday, reports Reuters, in which gonzo artist Mark McGowan ate cooked pieces of a Corgi, Queen Elizabeth II's dog of choice. McGowan staged the Fido-feeding (pictured above left) to protest the Queen's husband's treatment of a fox on a hunt last year. While the artist did his best to swallow a few chunks of Corgi (which had been minced with apple, onion and other seasonings), Yoko could only manage a small taste before looking "a bit strange," according to McGowan.

Besides having her room bathed in bright white light (to match her weave!), Stefani asks for 30 bottles of water and a cornucopia of organic items for her Sweet Escape Tour, which kicks off Saturday in Las Vegas. The pesticide-free buffet includes an assortment of teas, fruit, cashews, almonds, vegetables and ranch dressing. Some non-edible needs include ten white towels and four aromatherapy candles, all of which MUST be the same scent. Her Harajuku girls are very sensitive!

Sanjaya Malakar is getting fried this week!

Kentucky Fried Chicken has offered the "American Idol" wannabe a free lifetime supply of their Famous Bowls if the 17-year-old hirsute crooner sports a bowl hairdo in one of his next televised performances.

In an open letter to Sanjaya, KFC President Gregg Dedrick writes, "We're sure America will be as 'bowled-over' by your take on this classic look as they are by our KFC Famous Bowls."

In addition to the poultry perks, KFC will also make a contribution in Sanjy's name to Colonel Scholars, a charity that provides young people with college scholarships. Who knew bad singing and funny weaves could do so much good?!

Hudson reacted to Simon Cowell's criticism of her for not thanking "American Idol" in her Oscar speech. She reportedly snapped back, "If I'd been any better at my job when I was at Burger King in my middle teens, I wouldn't be here either, so should I thank them, too?" Hudson worked at the BK on East 87th and State Street in Chicago. Burger King was her first job at age 16, where she worked with her sister, who claims she sang while working the drive-thru and flipping burgers.

In an exclusive statement to TMZ, Burger King responded to Hudson's beef, assuring her that no thanks is necessary, and awarded her with BK for life:

"...In response to Jennifer's recent comments in which she asked if she should be thanking Burger King, we say thanks, but no thanks are necessary. Burger King Corporation is proud of Jennifer's success and while we never like to lose employees, in this case, our loss is the entertainment industry's gain ... To further show our support for Jennifer, and make sure she never has to sing for her supper again, Burger King Corporation is giving her a pre-paid BK Crown Card that will be automatically reloaded for life."

Everyone knows it can be hard to get a table at some of LA's hippest restaurants. But you would think winning an Oscar or being one of the hottest women in the world would make it a tad bit easier.

That wasn't the case on Thursday night at Brentwood's Katsuya restaurant.

Academy Award winner Reese Witherspoon, supermodel Cindy Crawford, Ryan Haddon (Christian Slater's ex) and Jim Belushi's wife were at the Japanese eatery having drinks at the bar while they waited for their table. And waited. And waited.

Finally, after it was clear that they wouldn't be seated anytime soon, the gorgeous group took their girls night out to the nearby trendy Brentwood Restaurant, where they were quickly ushered to the safety of an available table.
