 New mom Gwen Stefani (pictured here incredibly any-minute-now pregnant!) has left the hospital with her second child with rocker husband Gavin Rossdale, baby boy Zuma Nesta Rock. It’s good news for that other Gwen–Apple is no longer the world’s stupidest celebrity baby name…- Kid Rock has bucked the current trend of putting his music on iTunes–and the huge success of his hit All Summer Long has forced anyone who wants the song to buy his CD Rock And Roll Jesus at their local music retailer. It’s put the album, released almost a year ago, in the Top 10 and pushed it to double platinum status–not to mention really irritating Steve Jobs…
- Pink is singing one thing and saying another, as she claims her new song So What is not a dig at her estranged husband Carey Hart–despite the song’s video depicting her taking a chainsaw to a tree engraved with the couple’s names on it. Pink claims it’s the musical version of "when a kindergartener goes up and punches a girl he likes and runs away", and insists Hart is "my darling" and "it’s all good"–and maybe explains why they’re estranged…
- Malaysia’s government has apparently done an about-face on their stance opposing Avril Lavigne’s concert there this coming Friday night–officials now say her show in Kuala Lumpur may go on, although the nation’s arts and culture ministry will reportedly monitor the concert to "ensure that the performances do not clash with the Malaysian culture and values". So–how much was the payoff, and which official got it?
  Former Saturday Night Live cast member Chris Kattan has split with his wife, model Sunshine Tutt, after a virtual Hollywood eternity of wedded bliss–8 whole weeks. What do you figure–he did that Mango bit one time too many?- Ed McMahon has passed on Donald Trump’s offer to buy McMahon’s home, which is in danger of foreclosure, and then lease it back to McMahon and his wife. Ed will instead sell the home to another party, likely deciding he wanted the Donald as a landlord about as much has he would want Jay Leno as a boss…

- A "Who’s Who" of top female singers, including Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Sheryl Crow, Rihanna, Melissa Etheridge and nine others will join to record a single to benefit the Stand Up To Cancer initiative, which will air on ABC, NBC and CBS on September 5. This bunch, including a pair of cancer suvivors in Etheridge and Crow, won’t just stand up to cancer–they’ll obliterate it with the sheer force of their collective wills…
 Avril Lavigne is having difficulty performing a concert in Malaysia, where officials say her show would be, "unsuitable to Malaysian culture" and its scheduled date of August 29 is too close to the nation’s independence celebration. Avril needs to follow the lead of Beyonce, who was in a similar situation recently–she made sure her costumes were inoffensive, her songs weren’t controversial, and her multi-zillion dollar husband was standing by just in case to write them a big check…- The Olympics have been good to Michael Phelps, and Michael Phelps has been very good to NBC–its coverage of the summer games grabbed the top 7 spots in TV ratings last week, pulling in an average audience of 28.7 million. Al Roker had better hope Phelps has no major weatherman aspirations…
 The people of Milwaukee honored one of their own–on TV at least–when they unveiled a bronze statue of Arthur Fonzerelli, better known as "The Fonz" from 70’s sitcom icon Happy Days. Most of the cast of the show was on hand, except for the guy who played Potsie–he spent the day on the show’s Hollywood set, wondering where everybody else was…- Roger Moore, who played James Bond in 7 films in the 1970’s and 80’s, writes about his experiences in a memoir out November 4 and reveals that many of the stunts left him in less than ideal conditon–including one boat-chase scene that catapulted him into a wall, cracking teeth and twisting his knee. Apparently, the villan for the rest of the movie was the stunt coordinator…
- Bobby Brown is in more legal trouble–only this time it’s from his own attorneys, who say he owes them $90,000 in fees stemming from his divorce from Whitney Houston. At least this time it isn’t any of those drug dealers he stiffed…
