A Socialite's Life says: Pete Doherty injects smack into unconscious girl
Dlisted says: Pete Doherty is a hero!
I Don't Like You In That Way says: Pete Doherty likes to share
Popsugar says: Throw Pete in jail forever
The Superficial says: Pete Doherty injects drugs into people
Perez Hilton says: He don't like the drugs...

Who said it best:
You've got to love IDLYITW's sarcastic take on a sad situation:
Okay, so can someone please explain to me why this lunatic isn't being forced to taste test penises in prison for the rest of his life? Not for being a deranged drug addict, but for wasting all that heroin. Take it from me, when girls are already unconscious, they'll always say yes.

I'm sure Charlie Sheen feels the same way.

It makes sense she would choose jail over community service since she always looks like she just got ouf of prison anyway.

Is she, or isn't she?

The story:
Britney Spears is pregnant with her second child, and she cried her eyes out in February when she found out.

Image from US Weekly via Dlisted
The combatants:
US Weekly Online says: US Exclusive: Britney - yes, she's pregnant!
I Don't Like You In That Way says: It looks like Britney is pregnant again. Again.
Popsugar says: Britney pregnant again?
Tabloid Whore says: The Brit preggo train takes off again
Perez Hilton says: Breaking Fast: Britney is pregnant! For real!
The Superficial says: Britney Spears is really pregnant
Celebrity Hijinx says: Told ya so
Defamer says: World surprised it took Britney Spears this long to get knocked up again
The Scoop says: Report - Britney Spears is pregnant again
Dlisted says: Is Britney pregnant?
A Socialite's Life says: Britney Spears pregnant with her second child

Who said it best:
While US Weekly had the scoop, IDLYITW definitely had the winning headline. Aren't we all just a little tired of this story?

Tabloid Whore wins the story war, and sums up my feelings nicely:
Well, it's been a whole couple weeks since a magazine has put a "Britney Spears Is Pregnant" declaration on their magazine, so leave it to US Weekly to break that tabloid dry spell.

He said, she said...and then we said "Who Cares?"

The story:
Paula Abdul and Ryan Seacrest are feuding - or are they?

Image via Glitterati Gossip
The combatants:
Glitterati Gossip says: Ryan Seacrest and Paula Abdul duke it out for diva status
Perez Hilton says: War of the Roses
Defamer says: Paula Abdul and Ryan Seacrest join America in hating each others guts
US Weekly Online says: Seacrest denies feud with Paula
Dlisted says: I've been living under a rock

Who said it best:
If you're not sure who to believe in this feud / not a feud, Defamer sums it up best:
And while we're sure much of the show's name-calling and gay-baiting is all in good fun, in this instance, we tend to buy Seacrest's version of events--our reasoning being that the host would never distance himself from a heterosexual woman in the pages of a celebrity glossy unless it was absolutely necessary.

Popsugar says: Just leave Brad and Angie alone
US Weekly Online says: Brangelina wants you to step off
A Socialite's Life says: Leave Brangelina alone
Lainey's Entertainment Update says: Angie and Ann in Africa

Who said it best:
It's hard to choose, as I am so over the Jolie-Pitts and would gladly never set eyes on either of them again, but I like Lainey's attitude:
So is it the 'NO press' Pitts…or is it the 'Press when it suits us' Pitts???

It's getting down and dirty

The story:
Denise Richards files a lawsuit, claiming Charlie Sheen abused prescription drugs, is a compulsive gambler, frequented prostitutes and liked to look at male and female pornography on the Internet.

Image via Tabloid Whore
The combatants:
The Bosh says: "Abusive" Charlie Sheen barred from Denise Richards
The Superficial says: Charlie Sheen wants to kill Denise Richards
Celebrity Hijinx says: Denise's divorce drama
Defamer says: Denise Richards drops bomb on Charlie Sheen
Perez Hilton says: "Charlie wanted me to get an abortion"
I Don't Like You In That Way says: Charlie Sheen is insane
US Weekly Online says: Denise Richards shocker - Charlie beat me . . . and likes porn, too!
A Socialite's Life says: Denise Richards levels new charges at Charlie Sheen
Tabloid Whore says: Denise Richards alleges Sheen threatened to kill her

Who said it best:
While Sheen definitely comes out as the baddie in this one, IDLYITW has some advice for Denise next time she hooks up:
Top relationship counselors agree that when your potential husband, whose ex-girlfriend was a porn star (Ginger Lynn) and made plans to fake her death or when he shoots his previous fiancee (Kelly Preston), you should immediately get married and have children. They also believe that being charged five times for drug possession and once paying $15,000 for a blowjob, is a sign of his maturity. It's okay to love him despite his faults, but don't be surprised on your honeymoon when the Russian hooker gets broken and the phrase "bring out the gimp" comes up.

A Socialite's Life says: Pete Doherty arrested for possession just hours after leaving court

Once again The Superficial wit wins out:
On a side note, how did this ugly monkey of a man ever bag Kate Moss? Sharing a love of cocaine is one thing, but vomiting everytime you look at the guy is another.

Lainey deconstructs the Cruise PR machine:
"At press time, there are no details surrounding the birth, though not for lack of trying. Textbook Scientology stealth, if you ask me. All of a sudden they're dating. Then she's pregnant. Then she gives birth and abracadabra gay poofter - Mission Impossible 3 is due out in just 2 weeks. His timing is impeccable, non? Impeccable and yet more than a little suspect."

So now she's a 'serious' actress with something to prove? Bitch, shut the f&ck up."

K-Fed up with pimp image


The story:
Mr Spears says that the pimp image foisted on him by the media is helping his music "career" and that his relationship with Britney is for-evah.

"If anybody is the pimp in that relationship it's Britney! I mean, KFed gets an allowance for fucksake! How embarrassing is that? He has to like ask his wife for $20 to rent a movie from Blockbuster!"
Maybe he could do some chores around the house to earn a little extra pocket money.

Perez Hilton says: How does Brad show his love?
The Bosh says: Brad Pitt really loves Angelina Jolie

Who said it best:
Defamer wins the headline showdown with their astute observation about the motivation behind this makeover, and The Superficial takes this battle storywise:
"Remember when he would show up in a room and all the women would literally explode because he was so hot? Well that doesn't happen anymore. Now they just point and whisper, and wonder if the leathery-skin looking guy with a mohawk is going to sexually assault them later."

I Don't Like You In That Way says: Josh Holloway will probably end up divorced

Who said it best:
Keeping with the honesty theme, IDLYITW has this advice for Josh:
There is something to be said for sticking by the woman who still let you lick her when you were living with your sister and paying your dues as a fluffer's personal assistant, but can you really afford to be married while Wilmer Valderama is going through every piece of your well-earned Hollywood kitty like the value menu at Taco Bell?

I am sad to report that not everybody took this opportunity to mock The Gwyneth and her choice of names - some offered what might even be construed as actual congratulations. For shame! I expect better of you people! However, we can always count on The Superficial:
It must have been tough for them to try and pick a name even worse than Mortimer or Capone, but I think they really outdid themselves.

The story:
Paris Hilton is releasing an album.

The combatants:

Defamer says: Paris Hilton cd may not be as bad as we want it to be
More Conversations About Famous People says: Mother Paris is burning

Who said it best:
Love The Bosh's headline, and storywise it's a draw between MCAFP
"Paris Hilton is ready to release a little something. Not a horde of crabs set free from her thong but an album that’s been in the works for three years."
and Defamer
"If the beat is catchy enough, maybe we won't have to tear out our ears the first time we hear "Stavros on the Bottom (Herpes Club Remix)" blasting out of a Bentley parked outside Privilege."
Perhaps Paris is just too easy a target - the jokes just write themselves.

Gotta love Celebrity Hijinx' improvised dialogue in the headline. The Superficial and Hollywood Tuna both note that a repeat abuser like Campbell would likely win this celebrity death match, and I'll give this one to H-Tuna for this:
You know what I’d like to see? I’d like to see Naomi Campbell beat Rosie O’Donnell’s with a cell phone.
I can think of a few other celebs to add to that list!
