Whoever described the justice system in America as “swift” never observed the legal scene in Los Angeles. Nicole Richie won’t be beginning her trial on charges of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol until the middle of next month.

Richie’s legal team decided that it would be a good idea to delay the case again, this time in favor of utilizing the services of a defense expert to challenge the evidence in the case.

In light of their paparazzi-covered holiday sex romp in a Mexican hot tub, Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo can rest assured that no one will publish the racy, explicit photos of the incident.

OK! Magazine has paid $400,000 to secure the exclusive rights to the pictures of Nick and Nessa getting freaky and they plan to keep them under lock and key… and not a minute too soon.

Lindsay Lohan’s not going to be happy about this one. Apparently there are reports that she has been hiding a love affair with her BFF Samantha Ronson.

When LiLo checked into Promises Rehab Clinic, there was constant contact with Ronson, on text messages, MySpace, and letters. The focus of all this communicating? Lindsay is in love with Samantha.

In the realm of Clive Davis’ biting remarks about Kelly Clarkson and her new album, “My December,” Kelly has remained remarkably silent. But that’s all about to change, because she’s finally speaking her mind.

She recently told press how she felt about Davis’ criticism. "I don't know you very well, and I am not a bull-[bleep]er. I get [that] you don't like the album. You're 80; you're not supposed to like my album."
