One man bid $40,100 for one "meet and greet" with Scarlett Johansson at a film premiere.

Sure, the money goes to charity, but that same amount of cash could buy 40 dates with Gov. Eliot Spitzer's hot hooker -- and she's a sure thing!

Lanky Jaslene Gonzalez, "America's Next Top Model" cycle 8 winner, was flat-out denied from Snoop Dogg's "Ego Trippin" album release party at Touch in NYC last night. The Covergirl tried to be easy, breezy, and beautiful - but after posing and strutting for paps, Miss "ANTM" was still not allowed past the velvet rope. Awkward!

Jermaine Dupri and Snoop Dogg both arrived after the incident, and pimps walked right into the club. Well ... it was the Doggfather's party.

When asked about the situation - Lizzie Grubman, Jaslene's publicist, told TMZ "Why wouldn't they let a beautiful supermodel in -- it's news to me!"

Bai Ling celebrated pleading guilty to disturbing the peace by drinking a big 'ol glass of wine. Thatta girl!

In her wacked-out mess of a blog, Bai writes, "Theft dismissed! yes! This is it! All the darkness went away, the sunlight really come back to me with a huge smile right now dance in my trailer Yes! Yes! Yes! I will drink a sexy red wine tonight after my filming and celebrate. I am smiling for real!"

In her most recent blog, Bai Ling called her alleged pilfering of $16.22 worth of goods from an airport "an innocent mistake." So now she's making sense?? Doubtful.

The chicken-dancer extraordinaire adds that she is "confident that the truth will be told since I never had any intention of taking items without paying for them." Riiiight.

Underneath pictures of herself at the Southwest terminal at LAX, she writes, "Delayed the flight, wondring [sic] again in the airport like a ghost, why can't I just be the sun smile? My heart is a little sad now, casted by the melody of life ..."

TMZ has obtained the photograph in question, a headshot of Kat that reads, "Burn in hell Jewbag." No one witnessed Kat write the message, but Chris Garver, another tattoo artist on "Miami Ink," tells TMZ Kat personally handed him the photo.

TMZ's favorite nipple-baring wacktress was at Mr. Chow last night, talking about rivers, meat and monkeys in the Amazon, rapping (if repeating the same two words over and over can be considered rapping) about her new movie, "Southland Tales" and showing off some killer new moves she picked up in Brazil.

The document, titled "Show Participation," requires the people who work David's shows to arm themselves with clipboards, a Polaroid camera, a digital camera, brochures of David's islands in the Bahamas and "Blank photo(s) of David (if one of the girls is a scorpion)." "Scorpion" refers to women David brings onstage as part of his act.

The document describes how the assistants need to be heads-up for attractive women whom David can meet backstage after the performance. We're told the plan is to keep boyfriends and husband in the arena, adding "from time to time, boyfriends and husbands will give us a hard time and refuse to stay. If that is the case, try your best to get them to stay and refer to the "What to Say" sheet for help."

And it gets creepier.

OK! magazine reports that by request of the museum, Manilow donated the hyper-hideous jacket he wore for his Copacabana routine. When he was asked about it, he said, "I always knew the jacket would wind up in an institution." The staid Smithsonian was not amused -- and returned the jacket to Barry, saying, "You can't make fun of the Smithsonian." Well!

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!
