Gossip Morning

I am in LA, and the gossip is that in LA, celebrity gossip is a normal part of local news coverage. Go figure. On the 6 am news I have heard about Britney Spears (I am at UCLA today too, but not in the psych ward), Star Jones, and paparazzi laws!

• Entertainment Tonight was to run a video of Heath Ledger at a drug-laden party (though apparently there is no footage of him actually doing drugs), but Hollywood publicists and stars pressured the outfit to drop the video. Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman, Josh Brolin, and Sarah Jessica Parker all sent emails.
• Grey’s Anatomy star Justin Chambers recently checked himself into the same UCLA psych ward as Spears. Chambers was suffering from “exhaustion” and a “sleep disorder.”
• Actress Julianna Marguiles has given birth to a boy, Kieran.
