Last week I told you about the new John McCain campaign ad that compared Barack Obama to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. Then we found out the Hilton parents are big McCain contributors. Rude, right? Well now Paris herself has issued a video response and it’s one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a LONG time. This thing has been viewed almost 4 million times in 1 day. Even if you don’t like Paris, you’ll like this video.

This week’s movie releases didn’t wait ‘til Friday to challenge The Dark Knight. Pineapple Express and Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants 2 hit theaters today. Check out trailers for both movies:


Even though ABC tells me they never comment on casting rumors…I do! Rumor has it singer Toni Braxton, former *N Sync member Lance Bass, rodeo star Ty Murray, socialite Kim Kardashian, Brady Brunch-er Florence Henderson and former star quarterback Dan Marino have all been cast in the next season of Dancing with the Stars. The official cast gets announced later this month.

It’s been a little too long, like a week, since I gave you a John Mayer-Jennifer Aniston romance update, so here we go. A source tells me a few weeks ago they had a serious heart-to-heart where Jen told John she wanted him to move in with her after the tour ends. Apparently John said he wasn’t against the idea but they should give it more thought. I bet he agrees to move in but only if she lets the other three girls he’s dating move in with him.

Meanwhile…
OK agazine’s new cover claims that Jennifer and John are getting married in an intimate backyard ceremony. Other details include a strapless Vera Wang dress, Friends co-star Courtney Cox as Maid of Honor, and a honeymoon in Greece. Don’t you have to be engaged first?

If you remember, the reason American Idol winner David Cook went to the Idol auditions was to support his little brother Andrew. Andrew didn’t even make it to Hollywood so to payback his little bro, David and him will sing the National Anthem at the September 14th Kansas City Chiefs game, Kansas City being their hometown.

For the first time, the MTV Video Music Awards will look across the pond to honor the best British act. The nominees reportedly include STAR Artists Leona Lewis, Duffy and Coldplay.

Morpheus in Las Vegas? Yep. CBS is looking into bringing Matrix star Laurence Fishburne on as a replacement for William Petersen on CSI. Petersen is leaving the show as a regular cast member after the 10th episode of the new season.

Briefly:
STAR Artist Justin Timberlake saves a few bucks every month because he doesn’t need hair and nail appointments. He cuts his own hair. Hence why it’s the same length everywhere. Okay, not EVERYWHERE. Get your mind out of the gutter!

Comedian Artie Lange has checked himself into rehab. His rep wouldn’t confirm to me what for.

Bored economists figure that Oprah controls exactly 1,015,519 of America's votes. Yes. CONTROLS.

Put another celebrity in the “I’m having twins” category. Lisa Marie Presley, the daughter of Elvis, and her fourth husband are pregnant with twins, due this fall.
