The New York Post and Page Six are reporting that disgraced beauty queen Katie Rees is in talks with Playboy to do a spread after turning down 'Girls Gone Wild' producer Joe Francis.

Spies say Rees is in talks to do a spread for Playboy after turning down "Girls Gone Wild" impresario Joe Francis. "Joe was offering her $25,000 and $2 per video sold for her to host a special and do a video with him," a source says. But it's not about the money for Rees. She just agreed to host Jeff Beacher's "Comedy Madhouse" at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas for one night in March for a measly $10,000

I thought the requirement for Playboy was that you couldn't have posed nude before? Or is that just a requirement for Playmate status? Whatever happens to her, we will always have these fantastic pictures that caused all the trouble in the first place

Kelly Clarkson stepped out in New York without wearing an makeup and looking nothing like her American Idol self. It is amazing what makeup artists can do. Brutal.

Jennifer Aniston did not weep over her failed marriage to Brad Pitt, David Arquette has revealed. The actor, married to Aniston's gal pal Courteney Cox, said the former Friends star was a "very strong woman" but had been hurt by Pitt. He said media reports of the break-up were exaggerated and Aniston did not hate her love rival Angelina Jolie. Arquette, 35, let the revelations slip when he appeared on Howard Stern's radio show. Asked how Aniston coped with the breakdown of her marriage, he said: "Jennifer's great. I mean it broke up. Their marriage ended. With this whole thing Jennifer's a great girl," he told Stern. He added that news of Pitt's relationship with Jolie had come as a "surprise", but he had not once seen Aniston crying about it.

Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake have confirmed that they have jointly waved goodbye and turn their backs on their four-year relationship. "It has always been our preference not to comment on the status of our relationship, but, out of respect for the time we've spent together, we feel compelled to do so now - in light of recent speculation and the number of inaccurate stories that are being reported by the media," they said. "We have, in fact, ended our romantic relationship and have done so mutually and as friends, with continued love and respect for one another." Diaz, 34, and Timberlake, 25, began dating in 2003 after meeting each other at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards. Rumours about a split have been rife since Christmas, with Timberlake believed to have spent the festive period with his family and ex-girlfriend Veronica Finn. Speculation reached fever pitch this week with the kick-off of Timberlake's 36-date FutureSex/LoveShow tour, at which Diaz was conspicuous by her absence. Tabloid magazines have already linked the singer to blonde actress Scarlett Johansson, 22 - touted as Diaz's worst enemy.

Madonna has been gracing the New York City circuit over the last week, promoting her new animation movie "Arthur and the Invisibles" in which she plays the voice of Princess Selenia. She shined like a true beauty whilst attending her many special screenings which including two schools. Exhausted from looking good, Madonna then let her wrinkles flow freely when she looked like a monkeys smacked ass on the David Letterman show and The Today show. Much more entertaining I think.
