Lindsay Lohan's Paradise Cove Beach Excursion

A day removed from ringing in her 25th birthday, Lindsay Lohan continued to enjoy her freedom from house arrest with a trip to the beach at Paradise Cove in Malibu on Sunday (July 3).

Joined by her brother, Michael Jr., and sister, Ali, the trio of siblings met up with a few friends as the "Mean Girls" star covered her face with a baseball cap while donning a cute little speckled black dress and a camera strapped around her neck.

As previously reported by GossipCenter, Miss Lohan spent the previous evening celebrating her 25th with a low-key affair at the popular seaside restaurant Geoffrey's.

Commenting on his daughter's decision to pass up on a more lavish affair, LiLo's dad, Michael, told press, "She opted to stay in California instead of coming to New York because she has community service and wanted to concentrate on that. She's doing really, really, really well."

Locked Out NFL Stars -- Best Beach Football Ever!

7/3/2011 11:59 AM PDT�by TMZ Staff��

---

The NFL lockout effects players, coaches and broadcasters alike -- so guys like Tony Romo, Sean Payton and Troy Aikman satisfied their football jones this weekend by playing on the beach in Florida.

The guys are all connected through the Dallas Cowboys -- Romo still plays for them, Payton used to be the offensive coordinator (now coaches the New Orleans Saints), and Troy Aikman played his entire Hall of Fame career in the Big D.

Other participants included Cowboys tight end�Jason Witten and former 'Boys�linebacker Bobby Carpenter.

And perhaps most importantly ... Romo's hot new wife Candice Crawford was among the spectators.

Matthew Morrison Gears Up for "A Capitol Fourth"

Getting ready for a nationally televised performance, Matthew Morrison was busy rehearsing for "A Capitol Fourth" in Washington, D.C. on Sunday afternoon (July 3).

The "Glee" star took to the stage alongside Tony-nominated Broadway vet Kelli O?Hara as the pair are among a long list of scheduled entertainers at the PBS run showcase.

With Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning actor Jimmy Smits tending to hosting duties, other acts slated to perform include Steve Martin performing with the Steep Canyon Rangers, Josh Groban, and rock ?n roll legend Little Richard performing with the cast of the Broadway smash hit Million Dollar QuartetJordin Sparks.

With the event set to air from the West Lawn of the United States Capitol from 8:00 to 9:30PM ET, executive producer Jerry Colbert said of this year's offering, "It?s a tremendously uplifting feeling as hundreds of thousands of Americans join together on the lawn of the U.S. Capitol, singing the National Anthem as the National Symphony Orchestra plays."

Colbert added, "As we watch the nation?s capital light up with fireworks, it helps us forget our differences and remember that we are all Americans. I can?t think of a better place to celebrate our freedom and the nation?s birthday.?

Duchess Kate?s Canadian style tour continues: cute or boring?

Above is a photo from the protests outside of an event in Montreal, where Duchess Kate and Prince William were doing some kind of royal visit to a hospital. It?s just a reminder, for those of you who think I?m too harsh on Kate - I?m really not that harsh. I do like the girl, but I just think she?s ripe for some gentle teasing. I would never stand outside of one of her events with a sign that said ?PARASITE? though.

Anyway, on to the fashion! For Canada day, Kate wore Reiss, a British designer, and an outfit she had recycled and repurposed. Kate wore this dress, ?The Nannette? last year for her engagement portraits by Mario Testino. In those photos, I didn?t really notice the odd boob-ruffle, though. It?s cute, but I kind of wish the whole ensemble wasn?t so matchy-matchy with the red accents. Red maple leaf hat (by Sylvia Fletcher at Lock & Co.), red pumps, red Anya Hindmarch clutch. It?s nice seeing Kate more away from her usual blues and whites, though. Red looks nice on her. Also: her maple leaf brooch is the Queen?s.

Next up: Kate in a grey dress (with some kind of bluish-green undertone) by Catherine Walker, a favorite of Princess Diana. The dress is called ?The Kensington? - Princess Diana lived at Kensington Palace. This is Kate trying to look solemn, because she and William were visiting the Canadian War Museum. Kate and William also got to plant a tree (an Eastern Hemlock??) symbolizing their love, and I don?t mind telling you, Waity did NOT know what to do with a shovel. She?s all ?Er? what??

There were other costume changes and events, but unfortunately, we don?t have those photos. If you go here, you can see William in a chef?s jacket, though. I have to admit something - I?m surprised that the royal tour so far hasn?t gotten more attention. I guess it?s because there have been no flubs, major or minor, but I also think it?s because neither William nor Kate are really that dynamic? Go on and hate me. While I think Kate is performing her royal duties with grace, the camera often catches her looking like she doesn?t really know what she?s doing. She?s not a ?natural? at this, but she?s studying, and she?s trying, and good for her. I?m not bashing her for putting in the effort - although I will bash her for not paying attention to whatever task is at hand, and instead looking around for the photographers so she can turn her face to them. There are way too many shots of her looking in the complete different direction than everyone else - it?s not a coincidence. As for William, he?s been in the royal bubble so long, I get the feeling that he?s simply incapable of being spontaneous. It makes for a dedicated public servant, but not a terribly watchable one.

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries -- Bible Study

7/3/2011 12:55 AM PDT�by TMZ Staff��

---

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries are spending their free time in a surprising new way -- they're studying the bible ... but like all things these days, it has to do with their upcoming nuptials.

Sources close to the couple tell TMZ they've been going over their favorite passages in hopes of picking a few to be engraved on their wedding bands. We're told Kim will pick a passage for Kris' ring, and Kris will pick one to be engraved on Kim's.

According to our sources ... they are each taking it very seriously and they both want to pick something "with meaning."

As we previously reported, Kim already has a bible verse engraved into her massive engagement ring.

Can we get an amen?

Model Kate Moss ties the knot

Jonathan Short/AP

Jamie Hince and Kate Moss posed for photos outside St. Peter's church after their Friday nuptials.

Kate Moss brought an understated amount of glitz and glam to her wedding Friday.

The supermodel, 37, tied the knot with her boyfriend Jamie Hince of the band The Kills at a church in Gloucestershire, England.

The couple became engaged in February, after reportedly meeting in 2007.

In a cream-colored, sleeveless vintage dress designed by her longtime friend John Galliano, Moss walked down the aisle after her 15 ? yes, 15 ? bridesmaids.

ALL THE DETAILS ON KATE MOSS' LAVISH WEDDING REGISTRY

One of the young helpers was Moss' 8-year-old daughter, Lila, from her relationship with Jefferson Hack, who was also in attendance.

Moss' gown featured an overlay of gold embroidery and rhinestones with a matching veil that extended all the way to the ground.

The newlyweds weren't shy about showing some affection - or including Moss' daughter (r.) in their special day. (Jonathan Short/AP)

The bride's something blue? Her shoes, according to the Daily Mail, which reported that she wore a pair of custom-made Manolo Blahniks with a blue insole.

Hince, 42, was decked out in a light blue Stefano Pilati for YSL suit with a pin-striped, button-down shirt underneath, paired with a polka-dotted tie.

DO CELEBRITIES MAKE THE MOST GORGEOUS BRIDES?

Locals and fans alike crowded along the street where a fleet of Rolls-Royces escorted guests to and from the nuptials. A reception was to be held at Moss' estate.

Among the reported celebrity guests were fellow model Naomi Campbell (in a Givenchy outfit), Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and famed photographer Mario Testino.

Moss was attended to by a reported 15 young bridesmaids. (Jonathan Short/AP)

"It was a wham bam rock 'n' roll marriage," a source told Us Weekly. "She came out of the church with the bridesmaids and just snogged his face off."

"Then the doors to the Rolls-Royce opened and rock music blared out for everyone," the source added. "It was a 'Wow, Kate Moss is married' moment."

The festivities will reportedly continue throughout the whole weekend. The Daily Mail reported that the celebration will possibly include music from the likes of Iggy Pop, Beth Ditto and Snoop Dogg.

Locals have already given the weekend a special name: "Moss-stock."

Monaco's Prince Albert has another wedding

Prince Albert of Monaco and Charlene Wittstock wed, again.

That's right. The royal couple of Monaco followed their civil wedding on Friday with a Roman Catholic ceremony Saturday in front of some 300 guests gathered in the Main Courtyard of the Prince's Palace in Monaco.

Among the celebrity guests in attendance: fashion designers such as Karl Lagerfeld, Roberto Cavalli and Georgio Armani; supermodel Naomi Campbell; French President Nicolas Sarkozy; and actor Roger Moore.

Armani confirmed early this year that he would be the wedding dress designer. The gown was an off-white silk design featuring a long train with floral embroidery trimmed with stones in gold shades and crystal.

The Best Movies of 2011...So Far!

The best movies of 2011? Already? How can we possibly know?

This weekend, our friends at Moviefone are looking back at this year's most entertaining films -- so far. After all, we've reached the exact halfway point of 2011. We know plenty of critics predicted 'The Beaver' would be a turkey, so you might be surprised to see it kick off the Top Ten. Did your faves make our countdown?

10. 'The Beaver' Sure, we giggled like children at the title. We also scoffed at the notion that scandal-plagued Mel Gibson was the star (with a brown furry puppet on his hand, no less) of Jodie Foster's latest directorial effort. But we were pleasantly surprised to see this film was unlike anything either Oscar winner had done before. With an intense performance by Gibson and strong supporting acting from Anton Yelchin ('Star Trek'), the movie is both dark and humorous, and left us near tears by the end.

9. 'Rango' Johnny Depp -- by way of Hunter S. Thompson -- provides the titular voice of an animated chameleon in an identity crisis, who stumbles into a wry Wild West adventure filled with all the gnarly cowboy quirks you'd see in a classic Sergio Leone film.

8. 'Beginners' Christopher Plummer and Ewan McGregor play father and son in this movie about accepting who you really are. Plummer's character drops two late-in-life bombshells: He comes out of the closet and announces he has terminal cancer, revealing both facts to his shell-shocked son at once. Heartfelt and genuine, this is the year's sleeper hit, so far.

7. 'Cedar Rapids' This indie, starring Ed Helms and Anne Heche, came and went in theaters, overshadowed by the disappointing likes of 'The Hangover Part II.' But few films this year made us laugh as hard, or charmed us more, than this flick. A great premise delivered by a stellar cast, the Midwest-set comedy also gave John C. Reilly his due as one of the flat-out funniest people alive.

6. 'Win Win' This movie, about real people with real problems, celebrates the great things that come from helping others. From star Paul Giamatti, to Alex Shaffer's knockout debut performance as a troubled teen, to a script both poignant and hilarious, 'Win Win' is a simple film done extraordinarily well. And that's about as much as we can ask for when going to the movies.

5. 'X-Men: First Class' After the disaster that was 'Wolverine,' we were praying 'First Class' would turn out okay. Thankfully, it exceeded our expectations. 'First Class' traces the origins of some of our favorite mutants, including Charles Xavier, Mystique, Magneto, Havok and Beast. As for the villain, you knew Sebastian Shaw (played brilliantly by Kevin Bacon) was a perfect pick after the awful things he did during the opening sequence.

4. 'Tree of Life' Terrence Malick's ambitious meditation on childhood, spirituality and evolution isn't for everybody -- the Brad Pitt drama earned both boos and the Palme d'Or at Cannes. But for those who believe that film is also an art form, 'Tree of Life' is a welcome respite from summer's onslaught of angry robots and juiced-up superheroes (though, be warned, there are dinosaurs).

3. 'Bridesmaids' Featuring a bevy of talented actresses, 'Bridesmaids' married raunchy humor with real relationship dilemmas. As a result, every new comedy released between now and Dec. 31 will compete with 'Bridesmaids' to be pronounced "Funniest Film of 2011." Applying a classic Judd Apatow slacker-who-must-grow-up formula to 'SNL' star Kristen Wiig (who co-wrote the screenplay), 'Bridesmaids' is a nonstop escalation of bickering, reconciliations and breakdowns. While everyone else debated what the hit meant for women in comedy, 'Bridesmaids' simply did one thing: deliver great comedy.

2. 'Midnight in Paris' It's not easy to convey how much we loved this Woody Allen movie, because if we gave away details, we'd spoil the magic for everyone who hasn't seen it yet. That said, 'Midnight' is the one movie we've seen this year that had us grinning ear-to-ear from beginning to end. Owen Wilson has never been better, and of the 40-some-odd films in Allen's repertoire, it's pretty amazing that he's still makin' 'em this full of surprises.

1. 'Super 8' Director J.J. Abrams lays out a tale so clearly inspired by '70s/'80s Steven Spielberg, the legend himself agreed to produce it. A mysterious monster attacks a sleepy Ohio town, and against all odds, some middle-school movie geeks uncover the truth and save their neighbors, and their planet. But the heart of 'Super 8' isn't its spectacular effects. It's the kids in the cast (including exceptional newcomer Joel Courtney as Joe Lamb) who truly bring the film to life. We haven't seen an ensemble of child actors this good since 'Stand by Me,' and that's some serious praise.

A New Perspective On Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Mania, Hallucinations, and Delusion

Posted by ILookFlyChick�-�Wednesday June 8, 2011 07:49

A New Perspective On Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Mania, Hallucinations, and Delusion

www.bipolaradvantage.com What is unfortunate today is that far too many people continue to cling to the old belief that it is impossible to live a full life with a mental condition. On the other hand, a growing group of people are beginning to consider a life that is not restricted to a narrow range of experience. I look forward to the day when we all rise above the ignorance that keeps us in fear and denial of a better life. Bipolar In Order is based on a very simple premise we can learn and grow to the point that we see our condition as an advantage in our lives. Because this concept is often difficult for many people to accept on blind faith alone, I encourage everyone to simply begin by accepting that this new perspective is possible. To make this perspective a reality requires persistence, determination, and commitment. If you will give this perspective a chance, you will prove it in your own life. There are so many examples of bipolar ?disorder? that it is easy to understand why so many people try to avoid it instead of facing it and getting it under control. We can choose to view depression, mania, hallucination, and delusion from at least two different perspectives?either as ?disorder? or as ?in order.? Knowing that we have a choice of perspectives leads us to the understanding that we do not have to accept a diminished life. We begin to see what bipolar can be if we get it ?in order? instead of trying to make it go away. For me, Bipolar In Order is the greatest ?

Bobbie Ann Mason brings WWII alive in 'Blue Beret'

By Craig Wilson, USA TODAY

Bobbie Ann Mason knows her way around a good story. She has proven that over and over ? in In Country,Nancy Culpepper and her memoir Clear Springs.

• 

Now the PEN/Hemingway Award winner returns with a novel that takes us back to World War II, the Resistance in Nazi-occupied Europe, and the men and women who played out the drama on the world stage. One man in particular.

The novel is based on Mason's father-in-law, Marshall Stone, and his real-life experiences as a gallant, daredevil flyboy who made nine bombing raids over Europe until the fateful day he is brought down, crashing his B-17 into a Belgian farmer's field.

Decades later Stone is forced into retirement ? he flew jumbo jets ? and doesn't know what to do with his life until one day he decides to return to that Belgian field, retracing his war steps. His goal? To reconnect with the Resistance people who helped him survive, especially one young woman, a teenager during the war, who guided him through the back streets of Paris. Yes, the girl in the blue beret.

This is a war story told decades later, helped along by Mason's extensive research in Europe, where she tracked down the real-life heroes herself. Ushering her readers back and forth across the decades, she perfectly weaves history with fiction.

Without giving anything away, let's just say Stone discovers nothing short of amazing revelations about the people who helped him all those years ago, people who risked their lives for him. And along the way Stone discovers a few things about himself.

The Girl in the Blue Beret
By Bobbie Ann Mason
Random House
345 pp., $26
* * * out of four

In many ways the book is a tribute to these unsung civilians whose heroism often was never acknowledged by those they helped.

As for the girl in the blue beret, he discovers her living near Cognac. A widow. She recognizes him immediately and tells him her family took in other aviateurs during the occupation.

"'You remembered me as the girl in the blue beret. ? Is it not so?'" she said. "'But our signals varied. Sometimes I wore a Scottish scarf. One of the aviateurs wrote me and he remembered me as the girl in the red socks!'

"He (Stone) laughed. "'The girl in the red socks. It doesn't have the same ring to it.'"

Indeed it does not. To him she remained the girl in the blue beret, and a good thing, too. It's a perfect title for this near-perfect war story.

Anne Hathaway & Adam Shulman: Wimbeldon Lovers

Spending the weekend taking in a little tennis, Anne Hathaway and boyfriend Adam Shulman were courtside at Wimbledon on Saturday (July 2).

The cute couple sat alongside tennis legend Billie Jean King as they watched the Ladies' final round match between Maria Sharapova of Russia and Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.

Having been together for two and a half years, Miss Hathaway recently called her relationship with Shulman as being "mellow," as she told Harper's Bazaar, "So far, it's worked out great."

Of settling into a laid back romance, Anne said of her previously dramatic dating situations, "(They) had their wonderful side, of course ... but also it was exhausting, and sometimes it would freak me out."

She added, "Mellow doesn't always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life."

Cindy Anthony Could Not Have Searched for Chloroform, Prosecution Says

Did Cindy Anthony search for chloroform as she testified?

When she took the stand last week, Cindy Anthony shocked the courtroom by taking responsibility for several incriminating searches on the family computer.

On Friday, the prosecution called John Camperlengo, chief compliance officer for Gentiva Health, the company where Cindy Anthony worked in March 2008. He testified that Cindy was making entries at her office computer at the same time she claimed she had search for chlorophyll, which led her to various sites about chloroform, as well as searches for "chest injuries."

Camperlengo testified that, because Gentiva complies with HIPAA laws, they monitor all logins and logouts on the business computers.

"Was Mrs. Anthony logged in and working on those dates?" asked prosecutor Linda Drane Burdick.

"Yes," Camperlengo said.

At the testimony, Cindy Anthony vigorously shook her head and sighed.

Then Cindy Anthony's supervisor took the stand. Debbie Polisano testified that the record-keeping rules at Gentiva were strict. Presented with company time cards, Polisano testified that Cindy Anthony was at work when the searches were conducted.

"It would have been illegal to say she was working when she was not," Polisano testified.

Prosecutors allege that Casey Anthony used chloroform to kill her daughter, 2-year-old Caylee, and that these searches ? done three months before the toddler's death ? show that the crime was premeditated.

Casey Anthony, who could face the death penalty in the murder trial, had no reaction to the testimony on Friday.

Denise Richards adopts a baby girl

Peter Kramer/AP

Actress Denise Richards is now the proud mother of three with the adoption of a baby girl.

Whoa, baby! More than half a year after ex Charlie Sheen first stormed front pages with a highly publicized meltdown at the Plaza Hotel, Denise Richards is proving that she's doing just fine without him.

A rep for the actress, 40, confirmed to Us Weekly that Richards is now indeed the proud mother of a weeks-old little sister for daughters Sam, 7, and Lola, 5.

"Eloise Joni Richards is named after Denise's mom (Joni) and Denise and her daughters Sami and Lola chose the name Eloise," the rep said. "Denise and Eloise's big sister couldn't be happier and feel incredibly blessed."

Coincidence? During the time of Sheen's drug-fueled, porn star-infused�meltdown, Richards and her daughters were ironically�staying at the Eloise Suite at the Plaza Hotel.

Richards, who has been quietly fulfilling single-parent duties while Sheen frolicks with his goddesses at his Beverly Hills mansion, tweeted her excitement about the news.

"Thank you all for your sweet messages," she wrote. "The girls and I are over the moon and so is my dad Grandpa Irv...xo."

Meanwhile, the troubled actor isn't doing so great, with his last remaining goddess, Natalie Kenly, moving out of his home just last week, and his character on CBS's "Two and a Half Men" being driven off a cliff in the upcoming season.

Additionally, TV's highest paid actor will have to shell out $55,000 a month for child support to his other ex, Brooke Mueller, from his Warner Bros. Television paycheck. The hefty monthly payments will go toward support for Sheens' twin sons, and were part of a divorce settlement he and Mueller reached earlier this year.
