Posted by Steve Gustafson on 03.06.2010

While Hollywood poses for its closeup, check out 5 post-Oscar breakups and guess who could be next? Jessica Simpson refuses to turn the other cheek with John Mayer! Naomi Campbell takes a swing while Spencer Pratt takes a bite! Should Tiger Woods have to apologize to his mistresses? 5 things about Angelina Jolie, a VS that has Ava Gardner take on Kate Beckinsale, and a special "& 1" Model of the Week looks at some stunning Oscar dresses! All this and more inside!

BEFORE WE BEGIN...
I'm Steve Gustafson and we're back for another week of goodness. This is the place to visit to get your fill of celebrity gossip. I read through all the tabloid magazines and gossip sites so you don't have to. You're very welcome.

Just to let you know, I'm wearing a tuxedo while typing this. Why? Oscar time, baby! Get into the spirit! Putting it together this week, I was faced with a number of choices. Do I take this low and focus on the rivalries going into the big show? Nah. What about the worst dresses? Nope. Leave that to Joan Rivers. I settled on a mix, along with the usual grab bag of tricks.

But I am curious. WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE OSCAR MEMORIES?

So what else do I do around these parts? Let's take a look at all things Steve:
Monday: Big Screen Bulletin. EXCLUSIVE interview with George Sirois!
Wednesday: The Silicon Valley 10 & 1. Top 10 Most Disappointing Movies Based on Video Games!
Saturday & Sunday: The Hollywood 5 & 1. Last week saw Marilyn Monroe vs. Lindsay Lohan. Plus the usual. If you missed it, shame on you!

Lindsay Lohan got torn up pretty good last week. And you guys took it to her in the comments as well. BUT I do have to give props to the photographer for the job he did with her in the pictures for Purple magazine. Good job Terry Richardson!



WHO SAID WHAT?
"I've only been with two men my entire life. My childhood sweetheart and Brian (Austin Green). I can never have sex with someone that I don't love, ever. The idea makes me sick. I've never even come close to having a one-night stand."

Megan Fox says the magic number is 2. One. Two. Two. Megan Fox. Two. And one of them is Brian Austin Green. Do you believe her?



Somewhere Tiger Woods is laughing, "2? Girl please! That's a Friday afternoon!"

VS
Last week was WAY too easy. This week you're going to have to work for it. While Marilyn Monroe won handily over Lindsay Lohan in the classic vs. current match up, how about Kate Beckinsale taking on Ava Gardner? The inspiration for this comes from The Aviator, of course. Kate did a fine portrayal of Gardner. To keep it on a semi-level playing field I pulled a black & white pic of both. Let's do this!

Ava Gardner VS. Kate Beckinsale

5 THINGS ABOUT ANGELINA JOLIE YOU DIDN'T KNOW!
Here she is! Would you consider her the Queen of Hollywood? Eh, I don't know. Brad Pitt would think so. Also, I know you're expecting an adoption joke here, but I'm not going there. Let's get to knowAngelina Jolie a little better!

1. She made her screen debut as a child alongside her father Jon Voight in the 1982 film Lookin' to Get Out, and her career began in earnest a decade later with the Cyborg 2.
2. Jolie's the god-daughter of Jacqueline Bisset and Maximilian Schell.
3. At the age of 14, she dropped out of the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute and dreamed of becoming a funeral director.
4. Jolie has said in interviews that she is bisexual and has long acknowledged that she had a sexual relationship with her Foxfire co-star Jenny Shimizu
5. Jolie has thirteen known tattoos. Unless you know something I don't know.

And now you know...



Would you let her adopt you? ZING!

VIDEO-O-GO-GO
I don't think anything will top the video from last week. I'm not even going to try. First, let me take a moment to say, "BOOOOOOO!" To who? The Oscar folks who disable the embedding on their videos at Youtube. Those are meant to be SHARED!

But someone was able to put this together. It has one of my faves...THE STREAKER!




Alright, let's get to the actual Hollywood 5 & 1. I go through 5 things out of Hollywood this past week that made me scratch my head plus our "& 1" Model of the Week! Let's go!



5 Post Oscar Winning Splits!
It's about that time! While some of you will be getting dressed up to sit in front of the TV and make fun of the famous, those famous just MIGHT be attending their last Oscar bash as a couple. Who will it be this year? Make your picks BELOW!

But let's take a look at 5 couples who were hot and heavy at the ceremony but soon cooled off!

Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer lasted a whole 2 weeks after the Oscars before calling it quits! Was he doing it for Aniston, to avoid leaving her dateless for the big event and having to face the combined force of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie? We'll never know.



There was a time when Julia Roberts was the only name on the list! Back in 2001 she won the Best Actress award for Erin Brockovich. If you didn't pay attention, you wouldn't have known she was even dating Benjamin Bratt. Much less dating him for four years. A few months later...POOF! .



This one isn't really a shocker. We're talking George Clooney here. If I didn't mention his girlfriend, would you even know who she is? How many said Sarah Larson? The Las Vegas waitress got the golden ticket and attended the Oscars when Clooney was up for Best Actor for Michael Clayton. Fast forward 3 months...back taking drink orders.



This one still makes me sad. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe looked to be a cool couple. In 2006 she won Best Actress for one my favorite flicks, Walk the Line. Everything seemed to be good between the two. Witherspoon filed for divorce and they went their separate ways.



Eric Benet (I don't respect this guy enough to give him the little accent over the E. Deal with it!) will forever have a dark cloud over him. OK, you have a sex addiction. You're married to Halle Berry. You work it out man. That's why you have two hands. Make a prison fifi or something. I certainly hope the photos of the women you cheater on sweet Halle weren't true. YIKES!

In 2003 he stood by her for The Monster's Ball and she stood by him for his...addiction. Months passed and she hit the road and never looked back. And if you think he's getting his picture in the 5 & 1...think again!



Jessica Believes in the Bible...Except the Forgiveness Part.
When her dad talked about her boobs, it was cool. How times have changed. During an appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Jessica Simpson cleared the air about the crude comments her ex-boyfriend, John Mayer made about their sex life. "I felt betrayed," Simpson told the talk show host of the Playboy article in which Mayer compared sex with the singer to crack cocaine and called her "sexual napalm." "It made me so sad and it was really discouraging, because that's not the John that I knew," she said. "I hope he gets his life together." Welcome to the real world Jessica. Guys like to brag. It could have been much worse. He could have called you "sexual diarrhea." Whatever that is. Simpson said that while Mayer did apologized to her after the interview was published, she has yet to forgive him. "I don't accept it," she said. "I don't resent him, I'm just gonna let that go. That part of my life is over." Well, over unless she can use it in an interview with a huge audience, i.e. OPRAH. I'll be straight. Sex with Jessica would probably be a great way to spend 15 - 20 minutes, but is it worth the pain of having to listen to her talk for hours before and after? How many times would you have to listen to her gush about gum, the sound jingling keys make, and how she thinks the Black Eyed Peas are "the bomb"?



He's an example for guys everywhere. WAR MAYER!

Good Doctor and Very Good Dog!
See, there are still good medical professionals alive! Heidi Montag's plastic surgeon is refusing to perform any more surgeries on the reality personality following the ten procedures he performed on her in a single day late last year. OK, that WAS a bit much, but I'll let it slide. According to Page Six, Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Frank Ryan thinks she's had enough. "There's really nothing to do!" he said. Montag claimed to be addicted to plastic surgery in an interview with People earlier this year, saying that she was still in the market for a few upgrades. "I love my boobs, but I still want to improve. I didn't get them as big as I originally wanted," she said, adding that she wants to go up from her current cup size to an H cup..."for Heidi." You can't make up stupidity like this, folks. However, Montag and her surgeon aren't seeing eye-to-eye about her future modifications. Ryan says, "I told Heidi, 'What are you going to do? You're done!'" I will say he could perform one more cut. A complete separation of her and Spencer Pratt would get my approval.

Speaking of, looks like man's best friend just became an even better friend to me! It all went down Monday while Spencer was supposedly playing a game of tug-of-war with his little dog. I hope peanut butter wasn't involved! Sources close to the reality couple say Spencer put the little rope toy into his mouth, when suddenly the rope slipped, and Spencer chomped down through his own tongue, creating a gaping hole. Sounds fishy to me. The AWESOME news: Pratt hasn't been able to talk the past few days and sees it "as a sign from God that he needs to continue to keep his mouth shut in 2010." Amen to that.



Who puts these pics on Twitter anyways?

Watch Your Back When Naomi is Around!
I find this chick utterly perplexing. I don't find her attractive, her attitude is the worst, she has no discernible talent and yet she's still around. Wait. I just described 80% of Hollywood. Anyways, the driver who accused Naomi Campbell of attacking him on Tuesday is now taking it all back and has even issued an apology to the supermodel for getting the cops involved. Do you think she threatened him for that apology? Miodrag Mejdina's lawyer released a statement today, which says Miodrag reported the incident to the NYPD because he "got angry and overreacted." In the statement, Miodrag, who previously told cops Naomi hit him from behind and caused his head to hit the steering wheel, now claims the incident was "blown out of proportion" and he wants to apologize to Naomi "for causing that to happen." Wow. Driver's with lawyers. Who knew? Meanwhile, Naomi released a statement which says, "I would like to put the last few days behind me and move on." I wonder how many times she's released that statement?



She just looks high maintenance.

Should Tiger Have to?
WOW! Watch this and answer: Should Tiger Woods have to apologize to his mistresses? If you ask me, if he wants to call them and say, "Thanks for the memories. Sorry it ended this way," that's his business. These girls knew he was married and they were doing dirty to his wife. They should be apologizing to her!
