All Britney's men
So Britney has a new man. Nobody really knows who he is, but we've seen pictures of them going out on dates. He's been identified as Daimon Shippen. Now you might be asking who the heck Daimon Shippen is, well, so am I. And apparently, he's her bodyguard! Will Britters never learn from her mistakes? Rule number one Britney, never date people you pay a salary to. We all know how poorly that ended the last time!

Anyway, so we all know Britney can't date a normal, scandal-free man... yes, it means we found some dirt on him. Apparently Daimon was fired from his former employment agency, Galahad Security, because he allegedly owned a sex toy and porn website. Sies!

However, other sources are claiming that the mystery man is multi-billionaire, John Sundahl! And that he's much older than her. Mmmm, now, I'm not sure I see anything wrong with that picture.

But some people are claiming that this guy isn't the boyfriend after all, that maybe he's just a cover for the real boyfriend. Well, whatever he is, Britney needs to get away from dodgy men. It's not helping her one bit, and please Britney, get a stylist. I am begging you! That hair just doesn't cut it, and the clothes just look bad.

Charlie on his knees
So Charlie Sheen got engaged this week. Will he never learn? We all know Charlie can't be faithful, he's got a thing for the ladies. And he can't seem to stick to one woman.

So who's the lucky (ahem) lady? Sheen and girlfriend Brooke Mueller have been dating for a little over a year, and now they've announced their plan to marry.

So how did he propose? Apparently Sheen was romantic and sweet. He proposed to Brooke on a Costa Rican beach with an 11 carat yellow diamond ring worth $500 000! Whooaaa momma! Hello. I can see why Brooke said yes. Damn, I'd say yes too! Well maybe Charlie's cleaned up his act and is ready to get serious. We hope it works out for the two of them.

Beckhams take (it) off
What have the Beckhams been up to recently? Well, besides packing and getting ready for the great move to the US (in fact, they should be there already), they've also been posing for W Magazine. And let me tell you, those pictures are super-dooper-hot!

They feature Posh and Becks in a dirty motel room, in barely-there underwear, and then also on the bonnet of a car. These pictures are so hot, that if you wore glasses while looking at them, your glasses would steam up.

But Posh had to go and spoil it all in the magazine interview. In fact, she's made a promise to the US, that she won't be the stuck-up cow that people think she is.

"I think people are really going to see me for the first time. I think they have this impression that I'm this miserable cow who doesn't smile," she said. "But I'm actually quite the opposite. When you're out there, they're trying to get pictures up your shirt, down your top. With all the flashes, it's as much as you can do to just find your car. I'm going to try and smile more for America."

Wow, America sure is blessed to have you Posh. Let's hope nobody decides to hire David to coach Bafana Bafana someday. We really don't need you smiling in SA...

But hot pictures and promises to smile are not the only things the Beckhams have been up to. Apparently Vic's been throwing her toys about with the Spice Girls reunion. She says that if the group members don't move to LA for the rehearsals, there will be no reunion. What a brat.

The reason for her demands? Well, she doesn't want to be away from her hubby and kids for too long. Oh boohoo. So three other women have to be away from their families? Get over yourself Posh.

Hilary who?
Well looky who got sexy all of a sudden... Hilary Duff has come out of nowhere and managed to get herself a sexy lingerie spread in Maxim magazine recently. Wow, when did she grow up?

I'm thinking that Hilary's about to take over Hollywood as one of the sexiest chicks around. Move over Paris and Lindsay, Hilary's here. I'm impressed.

I've noticed pictures of her frolicking in the sand in her bikini have been popping up all over the internet. Honestly, I thought Hillary was gone, I had no idea she was even on the Hollywood scene anymore.

And what makes her more sexy? Well, in a recent interview with Seventeen magazine she spoke openly about her break-up with Nicole's baby daddy, Joel Madden. Hilary spoke about her hurt at that point, and that she never really knew him because he was a completely different person when he was with Nicole.

So, she felt betrayed that he moved on so quickly, but luckily, she doesn't care anymore. We are so loving you Hillary! Well done girl.

Brangelina trouble brews
And now for some juicy gossip just in! Apparently, Angie's told Brad's mom that either she ends her friendship with Jennifer, or she won't see her grandchildren again.

Wow!

Apparently Angie was seriously pissed that Mrs Pitt senior slipped away from Angie's father's day celebrations for a few hours to visit her former daughter-in-law, Jennifer. I knew this was going to blow up. People told me I was wrong, that everybody was still friends with everybody. Ha!

So ja, Brad's mom is shocked that she's been banned, and Brad's brother who told the tabloids that Brad and Jen were still friends, apparently got a call from Angie telling him to shut his mouth. Whooa. I sense trouble in Brangelina land.

So one would expect Brad to stand up for his woman and ask his mom to leave Jen alone... but not so. Ja, he's actually kept strangely quiet on this one according to sources close to the couple and family. Strange I tell you. We'll be watching this one closely, and I really hope Jen's laughing her head off about this.

P.S. Before anybody gets upset because I'm not showing Angelina Jolie much love in this column, I'd like to make it clear that I have been a camp Aniston supporter from the start. I've always been vocal about it, and have no plans of switching allegiance anytime soon.
