Stacy Keibler's Breast Reduction
Spies on Scott Caan's upcoming film, "Mercy" tell us Stacy Keibler lobbied hard for a scene in which she would expose her breasts.
Then the unthinkable happened! Director Patrick Hoelck nixed the idea!
People on the production team were stunned, lobbying Hoelck for a change of heart. And finally, Hoelck saw two really good reasons why he should change his mind.
Keibler now realizing her rack's worth said no way and declined the role completely.
The role has since been given to a no-named actress. Her name? Not Stacy Keibler.

"Idol" Pips Out "Iron Man"
George Michael is performing on tonight's "Idol" finale, but he ain't "the biggest star in the world" that Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe has been touting -- our spies tell us, it's "Iron Man" Robert Downey Jr.
TMZ moles say the finale will include a virtual hologram of Gladys Knight singing "Midnight Train to Georgia" with Ben Stiller, Jack Black and Downey Jr. singing backup as the Pips. Holy Nat King Cole! "Idol" did this last season when Celine Dion sang along side a virtual undead Elvis. For the record, Gladys Knight is still alive.
We're told the Jonas Brothers, ZZ Top, Seal, Bryan Adams, One Republic, Jordin Sparks and Carrie Underwood will also perform before David Archuleta (or possibly maybe, but not likely, Cook) is crowned the winner.

Stage Parents Throw Their Kids a Bone
What parents let their kids hang around a guy who looks like he's exposing his penis near a pre-school?
That's exactly what happened in NYC yesterday, when Catherine Zeta-Jones shot a scene for a movie. Check out CZJ running away from a flasher with two kids under her arms. And look behind the flasher at the extras -- little tykes watching Long Dong Silver showing his prosthetic wang.
So producers paid the kids squat and the parents bit the bait. When the mini-extras go to real school, they'll surely be the hit during show and tell.

Parker got the extra tix because she contributed a lot to the Caroline Kennedy Fund for Public Schools, the beneficiary of the event.
