Brad Pitt rejoins Angelina Jolie in Chicago after jury duty in LA

Brad Pitt arrived back in Chicago Friday, after doing jury duty in LA Thursday, to a warm welcome from partner Angelina Jolie who was at the airport waiting and welcomed him with a warm smile.


Brad arrived at Chicago O'Hare airport commercial terminal and was escorted out by police and his bodyguard where Angelina waited in a SUV.

As he stepped into the SUV Angelina greeted Brad with a warm smile and a possible kiss.
On Thursday in LA, while Brad sat in the court for jury duty reading a book and waiting, he was interrupted by a woman who showed him a magazine that declared his split from lady love Angelina Jolie, and asked, "Is this true?"

We hope the lady gets to see these pictures.

Britney Spears lonesome and back in LA

Tail spinning pop tart Britney Spears was back in LA Saturday, 28 Jul 2007, after a weekend that didn't go too well for her, even after factoring in her train wreck status and proclivity to shoot herself in the foot.


The wayward 25-year-old She was seen shopping alone in Los Angeles sans her toddlers, bodyguards, assistants and poodles.

Her imposing bodyguard, Julio "JC" Camera, apparently took a day off after having gone well beyond the call of his duty Thursday, 29 Jul 2007, in Las Vegas where he administered photog Kyle Henderson a sound thrashing that Kyle is unlikely to forget for a long time to come.

Britney's toddlers were possibly back with her estranged husband Kevin Federline who, always alert for an opportunity to put the squeeze on Britney, had taken her to task for having frisked the toddlers away to LA without his permission in violation of their custody arrangement.

Britney looked in great shape, but only from a distance. On a closer look she came through as unkempt and hurriedly dressed and on a couple of occasions she looked to be steadying herself against a shop window as she walked by.

Victoria and David Beckham spice up LA home with blow-ups of their risque photos

Victoria Beckham and her footballer hubby David are so thrilled at the way their risque photos in W magazine have turned out, that they are now planning to have blow-ups of them installed in their new LA mansion.


Posh revealed to the Mirror that photos from the couple’s sexy interview would definitely be finding a place in their new 11 million Beverly Hills home.

"We've ordered some of those shots to have blown up. David especially likes the one of me writhing on the bonnet," the paper quoted her, as saying.

"We were both so happy with the pictures. Even though the poses were quite risque we felt totally at ease," she said.

Posh also took a little time out to thank pal Katie Holmes and interior designer Kelly Hoppen for all their help with the new house.

And, she reveals that Becks loved it on sight.

"The place is so amazing, I can't tell you how fabulous it is. Obviously David hadn't seen it so I was really nervous about his reaction. But when he walked in he just stopped in his tracks and went, 'Wow,'" she said.

"Katie Holmes has been amazing, helping me get all the girly stuff sorted. And Kelly Hoppen hasdone the most incredible job. It was so lovely of her to fly out here and work so hard to make it perfect for us.

"Her taste is impeccable, it's all very simple, muted tones, and practical to live in, but so stylish at the same time," Posh added.

She also revealed that though she had felt a bit bad about doing all the house hunting alone, her hubby’s reaction put her fears to rest.

"I felt really bad about doing the house hunt alone, buying such an expensive place without my husband seeing it. I felt, 'I'm making this huge decision about our future on my own,'" she said.

"But when we all walked in and I saw how thrilled David and the boys were I thought, 'I did really well. It was a big responsibility but I pulled it off'. My family will be really happy there.

"For the rest of the night I just walked around with the biggest grin on my face.

"I keep having to stop myself inviting every random person I meet around just to show them how great it is," she added.

Victoria Beckham's tracksuit bottom remarks upset LA neighbors

Singer Victoria Beckham seems to have made her debut in LA city in the wrong footing after she criticized Hollywood stars’ fondness for dressing down.


Posh Spice, who has already been branded arrogant and over-styled, said in her first US interview that American actresses love wearing tracksuits and Ugg boots.

'They dress down quite a lot here, don't they? It seems to be in keeping to go to Starbucks in tracksuit bottoms and Ugg boots,’ the Daily Mail quoted her, as saying.'

However, in the interview she defended her style of dressing and said that she likes to ‘change things around a bit’.

'I don't want to change the way I dress. This is me, and if people like it - great. I get quite bored with the way people look the same all the time, with the same make-up and the same outfit, and the same kind of hair. I like to change things around quite a bit,’ she added.

The pop singer, who has already embarked on her new line of jeans and sunglasses that will hit LA stores, said that she knows she is good at fashion.

'This is just the beginning. I want to still be doing this in 20, 30, 40 years' time. I was never going to be the best singer, dancer or actress. I worked hard at it and I did a pretty good job. 'But with fashion, I'm good at it,” she said.

Victoria Beckham’s 45min stop at LA sex store

Soccer ace David Beckham can look for some special action in the bedroom, for wife Victoria was spotted visiting a sex shop in Los Angeles a few days ago.

And while staff at the Pleasure Chest sex shop were stunned when Victoria walked in, it seems that it was the former Spice Girl who couldn’t stop the giggles as she took a look at the wares in the place.

An onlooker revealed to The Sun that Victoria spent little less than an hour wandering around the store.

"Victoria was in the store for about 45-minutes taking a good look around. She couldn't stop giggling," the onlooker said.

Also accompanying Posh was the camera crew who were filming for her forthcoming reality show that follows her journey from the UK, and Spain to the US.

Later, Posh also managed to fool the waiting paparazzi by getting her minder to drive a blow-up doll that looked like her around the city, before stopping at a jewelry store.

As the photogs clamored to get a shot of the mum-of-three, her security team showed the snappers just how thoroughly they had been fooled when they opened the car door and pulled out the effigy, complete with trademark sunglasses and a blonde wig.

Britney Spears shows off new tattoo whilst shopping in LA

Britney, who spent over an hour shopping at Barney's Monday, showed the new lips tattoo on her right wrist to the cameras as she departed. Ironically, the gesture served as a grim reminder of her meltdown before she entered rehab on 19 Feb.

Britney spent the first week after leaving Promises rehab on 20 Mar 2007 largely confined to her house, completely avoiding the cameras of the paparazzi camped outside.

Since her divorce settlement with Kevin on 29 Mar 2007, Britney has been less mindful of the paparazzi cameras and has regularly forayed outside her house to public places and restaurants.

The evening she settled with Kevin she entered a restaurant / bar for the first time since completing her 28 day rehab.

Last weekend she watched the LA Lakers first lose to the Houston Rockets on Saturday, 01 Apr, and then rout the Sacramento Kings on 02 Apr 2007.

Monday, her focus was on shopping. She first shopped on Rodeo Drive and was later seen at Barney's till past 7 pm accompanied by her cousin Ali. The two later went to Koi for some sushi.

As Britney departed Barneys she showed off the new lips tattoo on her right wrist, ironically a grim reminder of her meltdown. She had got the tattoo immediately after shaving her head on 17 Feb and three days before she entered rehab.
