A post shared by RadarOnline (@radaronline)

-Congrats to John Krasinski and Emily Blunt. The Office actor shared the news on Twitter Saturday morning: “Wanted to let the news out directly.  Emily and I are so incredibly happy to welcome our daughter Hazel into the world today!” (I love the name.)

-In other baby news, Canadian singer Lights also had a baby girl on Saturday and named her, um, Rocket Wild.

–Simon Cowell also has a new baby.

–Cate Blanchett won a BAFTA this weekend and gave a lovely shout-out to Philip Seymour Hoffman in her acceptance speech.

-Speaking of the BAFTAs, I love and adore the tux Angelina Jolie wore. (I also love that Brangelina are stepping up their award show appearances, which bodes well for the Oscars.) I also liked Ruth Wilson’s outfit, I liked the idea of Gillian Anderson’s but hated the execution, and feel bad for Maggie Gyllenhaal, who got out-played by Helen Mirren.

–Tom Hardy took someone who isn’t his fiancee to the BAFTAs.

–Christina Aguilera got engaged on Valentine’s Day.

-Meanwhile, despite rumours John Mayer did not pop the question on V-Day.

-Ooh boy. Charlie Sheen is engaged to a porn star.

–Ellen Page came out on Friday in a very brave and emotional speech, and E!Online quickly pulled the article about her that she referenced, in which they said she “insisted on dressing like a massive man.” Page has since returned to the set of X-Men in Montreal.

-I’m not going to lie: it’s a holiday here and I’ve already checked by mailbox twice to see if my Veronica Mars issue of EW has arrived yet. Does Canada Post deliver on stats or am I going to have to run to the newsstand and buy it? Because between the movie tickets already going on sale, and the building buzz, I don’t think I can wait.

-Orange is the New Black’s second season will begin June 6. Here’s a very short teaser.

-A preview of Angelina Jolie’s Unbroken premiered during NBC’s Olympics coverage.

–Kanye West interrupted his concert to rant about the tabloids’ fear of his interracial relationship.

-Meanwhile, it looks like Kim Kardashian‘s little sister is getting more love from Vogue’s Anna Wintour than she’ll ever hope to receive.

–Ben Affleck and Jimmy Kimmel have been heckling Matt Damon on Twitter.

-Everyone swears vengeance on everyone in the new Game of Thrones trailer.

Will Smith Pays Tribute To Uncle Phil

–Will Smith just posted a tribute to James Avery. Ahem. Did the room just get really dusty all of the sudden?

–Madonna posted a photo of her 13-year-old son posing with alcohol, and mommy bloggers were all “whutttt???” But Madonna has built her whole career on not giving a shit, so she’s fine with it.

-Ruh-roh. Those eco-friendly homes Brad Pitt‘s nonprofit rebuilt in New Orleans are now rotting.

–Michael Muhney was reportedly fired from The Young and the Restless for groping a costar’s breasts. You’d think Sheriff Lamb would know better!

-Did Charlie Sheen marry a porn star?

–Ian McKellan may have accidentally outed a couple of his Hobbit co-stars. Oopsie!

–Justin Bartha just got married. I pity the fool who had to plan that bachelor party.

-Even though it would be sweet, sweet victory Jenny McCarthy haters (i.e. – the world) if those reports about her revealing her son doesn’t actually have autism were true, she’s denying them.

–Craig Robinson (aka The Office’s Darryl) just got an NBC sitcom order.

–Sandra Bullock said that she and Julia Roberts have “shared custody” over George Clooney. I know it was just a joke but I’m going to go ahead and believe that, thankyouverymuch.

-I like Emily Blunt as a blonde.

–Idris Elba tweeted a dirty joke this weekend and the world collectively swooned.

–Cameron Diaz is on her book tour and the whole damn thing is pretty insufferable. She’s the reason I spent a lot of time swearing at my TV this morning while she touted her recipe for oatmeal with ponzu sauce and said crap like “I don’t use the word ‘diet’ because that implies deprivation.” Blech!

–Shia LaBeouf is a jerk who deserves to be called out for his Twitter antics. I just wish it was by someone more credible than Lena Dunham.

-Breaking news: Demi Moore‘s young boyfriend likes young people things like the interwebs.

–Justin Bieber is posting (old) photos of Selena Gomez on Instagram with mushy captions.

-I really like what Amy Adams is wearing. (Or maybe it’s just because I saw American Hustle yesterday and am grateful for any outfit that doesn’t expose her clavicle.)

-The first episode of Joseph Gordon-Levitt‘s TV show is on YouTube.

–Ariana Grande and Adrian Grenier have sort of similar names so everyone assumes they’re dating, but she says she has no idea who he is.

-I appreciate the level of perfection Meryl Streep and Margo Martindale appear to be striving for with their selfies.

–Ke$ha is in rehab for an eating disorder, which might have something do to with the fact her dickweed producer once called her “a f**king refrigerator.”

-This promo for “Up Close with Tig Notaro” is freaking me out, but I couldn’t turn it off.

–Kellan Lutz just denied that he’s dating Miley Cyrus. I wonder if she made him do it?

-Is the Queen forcing Prince Harry to shave his beard? Noooooo!

-A new trailer for House of Cards’ second season has landed. I still hate this show.

-Meanwhile, new promos have landed for Seth Meyers‘ and Jimmy Fallon‘s new shows.

–Gwyneth Paltrow and her fam are ringing in the new year on a beach.

-It looks like Emma Roberts and Evan Peters might be engaged.

-It turns out that renting your apartment to Axl Rose is not a terrible idea after all.

-Well, this is all kinds of amazing. The cast and crew of The Good Wife made a music video for “Thicky Trick,” the song that was at the centre of the trial on last night’s episode.

Miley Cyrus Opens Up About Liam Hemsworth Split

–Miley Cyrus might not miss Liam Hemsworth, but she does miss that “fat rock” he gave her.

-Congrats to Fifty Shades star Jamie Dornan, who just became a new daddy.

-I love Anna Kendrick, so I’m just going to go ahead and pretend she didn’t just appear at an event with a shiny face and a velvet dress.

–Peter Berg says he had to convince Taylor Kitsch not to throw himself off a 20-ft. cliff for the sake of a movie stunt. We should all be erecting statues in Berg’s honour.

–Emily Blunt had a baby shower and half of Hollywood was invited. (But not you. Sorry.) Kristen Bell, Amy Adams, Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux are just some of the stars who showed up to play Baby Bingo, or whatever it is stars do at these things. (Do you think celebrities have to play the stupid games? I’d pay to see Aniston suffer through a round of “Guess The Diaper Smell.”)

-MTV just made People magazine irrelevant by naming Tom Hiddleson their Sexiest Man of 2013.

-Whoa whoa whoa. Have Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet split up? Why is he kissing a rando redhead? More importantly, if he’s into rando redheads, why isn’t he kissing me?!

-The Community cast talks about Donald Glover’s imminent departure. *sniff*

-I like that Hollywood has started casting Linda Cardellini in things again. She just signed on to play Jess’ sister in New Girl. Hopefully there’s lots of awkward dinner scenes with their parents.

–Lindsay Lohan is writing a book about the thing she knows best: rehab.

-In light of all of the praise being showered on R. Kelly thanks to his new album, it’s a good time to remind everyone that he’s been accused of interfering with dozens of underaged girls. The Village Voice has a disturbing interview with Chicago Sun-Times journalist Jim DeRogatis, who has reported on Kelly for years, and it’s stomach-churning. “The saddest fact I’ve learned is: Nobody matters less to our society than young black women. Nobody.”

-I like that the Huffington Post basically allowed Will Ferrell to troll them — on the Huffington Post.

-I’m guessing that Rebel Wilson and Melissa McCarthy haven’t actually “made a pact” about refusing to lose weight and are instead just equally kick-ass ladies who refuse to get sucked into the Hollywood machine, but I appreciate the sentiment. -Here’s the first promo for Britney Spears‘ new concert special.

-Is Blake Lively shilling for Nespresso now (while pretending not to)?

-I’m always surprised Katy Perry insists on singing live. I mean, at this point it’s not like anyone cares.

-Vulture is on a roll today with oral histories. I liked this one on the “Splat!” episode of Sex and the City (aka – the one where Kristen Johnson falls out a window). But I loved this one on Buffy’s evil trio of Andrew, Warren and Jonathan.

-The annual Hollywood blacklist of the hottest unproduced movies is out.

-Here’s the first trailer for Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar, starring Matthew McConaughey, Jessica Chastain and Anne Hathaway. There’s very little actual footage, but it proves McConaughey should be in charge of all movie voiceovers from now on. I love how he makes the word “stars” like, three syllables.

-In other promising trailer news, here’s the first look at Parts Per Billion, starring Rosario Dawson, Teresa Palmer, Penn Badgley, Gena Rowland and (a maybe in-over-her-head) Alexis Bledel.

Miley Cyrus Defends Her Latest Antics

–Courtney Love threw shade at Katy Perry and Robin Thicke while praising Miley Cyrus for being “dark and hillbilly and f*cked up.”

-This Hollywood Reporter article about how “exceptionally difficult” Katherine Heigl is to work with is AMAZING.

-Congrats to my pretend BFFs Emily Blunt and John Krasinski, who are expecting their first child. Also, congrats to them for keeping it a secret for so long; their rep says she’s due soon.

–Brad Pitt walked the TIFF red carpet a few days ago with long locks, but he’s since cut it all off.

–Laura Dern and Ben Harper are officially divorced.

-Baby-making machine Maya Rudolph just had her fourth kid with her longtime boyfriend Paul Thomas Anderson.

-Remember after the VMAs when Ed Sheeran and Ellie Goulding were all “oh, we’re just friends who like to touch each other a lot!” It turns out they really were dating at the time, but have since split.

-The Killing greatly improved last season, but not enough to save it from cancellation.

-Another guy I missed was Idris Elba, who looked insanely good at a TIFF party.

–Kristen Stewart happened to be photographed with her hair caught in a weird part, and now everyone’s freaking out that she may be going bald over the stress of her breakup from RPattz. Simmer down, y’all!

-Meanwhile, Kristen once hung out with a prince for 15 minutes in exchange for his $500k donation to charity.

-Mad Men’s Kiernan Shipka plays a child star psychologist in a new Funny or Die skit.

-I’m kind of in love with Kings of Leon‘s cover of Robyn’s ‘Dancing on My Own.’

-Daniel Radcliffe is in three movies at TIFF this week. There’s The F Word, which people are loving, Kill Your Darlings, which is getting mixed reviews, and Horns, which seems to have confused everyone who’s seen it. Here’s a clip from the latter.

Amanda Seyfried Only Dates Guys She’s Instantly Attracted To

–Amanda Seyfried talks about listening to her vagina in the new issue of Elle. Her vagina should have told her to rethink those heart-emblazoned granny panties she wears in the photo spread.

-I don’t hate the idea of Ben Affleck playing the male lead in the Gone Girl adaptation, particularly if Emily Blunt or Natalie Portman lands the Amy role. I’m not really feeling the Charlize Theron rumour, though.

–Bill Clinton talked with Justin Bieber on the phone yesterday and forgave the pop star for cursing him out while urinating in public. It’s not like he hasn’t done worse.

-Uh oh. Now Amanda Bynes is dragging her tiny dog into the storm of crazy.

-I don’t know why Cosmo has a column called “Ladyboner of the Day,” but since today’s featured LBK is Joshua Jackson, I’m choosing not to complain.

-I cut Anne Hathaway a lot of slack when it comes to her ridiculous hats, but these gigantic pants will not stand!

–Salma Hayek tried (and succeeded!) to make her way through the “The Star-Spangled Banner” on Letterman last night.

–These girls reworked Alanis Morissette‘s “Ironic” so that it’s actually ironic. Amazing.

–This week’s GOOP is even more riddled with mistakes than usual. Did she really spell MacGyver as Magiver?!?

–EW has our first look at Jamie Foxx as Electro in the upcoming Spider-Man movie. Though to be honest, I prefer the inside cover image with Orphan Black‘s Tatiana Maslany.

–Kanye West isn’t thrilled that Kris Jenner is already pimping out baby North. That’s his job!

-Remember when Damon Wayans Jr. played Coach on the first episode of New Girl and then jumped ship to star in Happy Endings? Now that ABC cancelled that show, he’s poised to rejoin NG for a significant Season 3 arc.

Paris Jackson “Physically Fine” After Reported Suicide Attempt

(Photo: twitter.com/ParisJackson)

-Dammit. Just yesterday I was linking to Paris Jackson‘s makeup tutorials on YouTube, in which she appeared to be a normal, well-adjusted, happy teen. Today she is recovering after an apparent suicide attempt. According to reports, she was rushed to the hospital after leaving a suicide note, cutting her wrists with a cleaver and downing a large amount of Motrin. Jesus. A lawyer for the family says she’s “physically fine and getting appropriate medical attention,” while a peek at her Twitter page shows some pretty dark posts the last few days.

–Miley Cyrus’ Instagram page is basically just filled with shots of her cleavage this week. That’s one way to sell her new single, I guess.

-The trailer for Lifetime’s Anna Nicole Smith biopic is as depressing and soulless as you’d expect it to be.

–Channing Tatum is worried about Justin Bieber’s recent brattiness. Also on his mind: the over-medication of kids.

–This clip from This Is The End is very NSFW — and very hilarious.

-God bless Rashida Jones for trying to make pyjamas acceptable party apparel. I can totally get behind this!

-Tired of being overshadowed by Harper‘s adorableness, Brooklyn Beckham accompanied his mom to the Glamour Women of the Year Awards last night. Nice try, but it just can’t compare to the Kiss Cam action.

-I usually love and support Roseanne‘s wackiness, but she’s way off base with this.

-The Onion’s take on The Internship slayed me. “I would definitely recommend it to someone looking for a laugh-out-loud comedy eight years ago.”

-Some guy is suing famous podcasters like Marc Maron, claiming patent on the term “podcast.” Um, what?

-Whoever is writing Shopper’s Drug Mart’s customer response letters needs to get a screenwriting deal STAT.

–Will Arnett and Megan Fox hung out at NYC’s Beauty & Essex, and are reportedly bonding on the set of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Weirdest BFFship ever?

–Amanda Bynes lusted over Liam Hemsworth on Twitter. She also apologized for calling her ex Kid Cudi ugly, saying her account was “hacked.” That happens a lot, no?

-Also, does Amanda have a secret Twitter account for the thoughts that are too crazy to post on her regular one? Having spent a stupid amount of time on her regular feed, I can’t wrap my head around this concept.

–Whitney Houston‘s daughter Bobbi Kristina got kicked out of her apartment — and judging by the nasty note she left, she blames her neighbours.

–Parks & Rec‘s Jim O’Heir was back last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live playing Rob Ford.

-Speaking of Parks & Rec stars, Nick Offerman offered some romantic advice on Conan last night.

–Beyoncé’s new song from the Epic soundtrack dropped today. Listen here.

–Will Smith talks about his desire to “move away” from blockbusters, which is exactly the sort of thing one says when one’s latest blockbuster tanks.

-Speaking of war dramas, Taylor Kitsch just signed on to Lone Survivor, which is already getting Oscar buzz.

-Critics aren’t being very kind to Brad Pitt‘s World War Z, which is not surprising for a movie that had it’s entire third act reshot.

-Awww. John Krasinski and Emily Blunt showed up to support Jenna Fischer in her new Off-Broadway production.

-Meanwhile, Emily Blunt promises she’ll sing much better in her upcoming musical than in that karaoke video with Alison Brie that made the rounds recently. (Um, I loved that video! That may have been solely due to the John Krasinski/Jason Segel cheerleading, though.)

–Robert De Niro can’t get away from the mob in the trailer for The Family. Michelle Pfeiffer deserves better than this!

A Smutty Good Time

Dan Levy and Lainey at SMUT on June 25, 2012. (LaineyGossip.com/CTV)

-I managed to pop by Lainey‘s SMUT Soiree Monday night, which was a blast. The turnout was huge this year (800 people!) and the gossip was as juicy as ever. Smut was served, dirt was dished, and blind items were (kinda) revealed. Celebrities in the crosshairs included Julia Roberts, John Travolta, Alexander Skarsgård, Chris Hemsworth, Halle Berry, Ben Affleck, Johnny Depp, Heidi Klum and Kim Kardashian (who Lainey hilariously refuses to refer to by name, instead calling her “Kanye West’s girlfriend.” That sounds about right.)

-Is James Franco persuing Lovelace costar Amanda Seyfried?

-Poor Jon Hamm! He and his girlfriend were robbed during their recent stay in London.
