Earlier today we got sorta official confirmation that Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson are, more or less, involved in a romantic relationship … and in completely unrelated Lindsay news, here are a few photos of Linds posing for a fashion magazine photoshoot at a private residence in the hills of Hollywood, CA yesterday afternoon:

In between takes, Linds puffed on an endless stream of cigarettes and chatted ceaselessly on the phone … most likely with girlfriend Samantha. As if I needed more reason to love me some Lindsay … I mean, I hate the smoking but I do love that she is so happily settled with Samantha — and is finally being open about it. They make a great couple and I hope they stay together forever. If Lindsay gives up the cancer sticks, she’ll be able to enjoy much more time with Samantha so … she should just quit already.

Here are a few pics from a recent live performance that Gavin Rossdale gave in SoCal at the Roots and Shoots Day of Peace Festival this past Sunday … as you can tell from these cute pics, Gavin had at least 2 fans in the audience who were there to see his live act:

Okay, I can’t be 100% certain that wifey Gwen Stefani and eldest son Kingston James were in the hiz to watch Gavin perform … but I’m gonna venture a guess that they were. It should be noted that Gwen and Gavin’s newborn son Zuma Nesta Rock was NOT in attendance to support his dad’s live performance … which only goes to show that he is a bad son. Bad son! I am SO ready to get my first glimpse that little Zuma … bring it on, Gwen … we’ve waited long enough!

Yesterday we got to see the hilarious Grey’s Anatomy spoof that was featured on Jimmy Kimmel’s Big Night of Stars pre-Emmy Awards special which starred Michael Phelps as Dr. McSwimmy … today we get to see a few outtake and behind the scenes photos from the filming of this Grey’s spoof:

Yeah, basically it’s just an excuse to post pics of Michael Phelps standing around in his tiny little Speedo. And, for the record, I stand by my assertion that Phlepsie was hilarious in this little spoof … how can you not lurve a man who has no problem showing off his hot bod while wearing only a Speedo and not much else (tho, I could do without the black socks and Crocs combo). In case you missed it the first time, click HERE to watch the Dr. McSwimmy Grey’s Anatomy spoof to see Phelpsie in action.

Well now … it apparently didn’t take long for Jennifer Aniston to get over her breakup with John Mayer. Here are a few new pictures of Jen down in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with a mysterious new dude which were taken a couple of weeks ago. You may recall the last time we saw pics of Jen enjoying the company of a male companion while on holiday was when she was just hooking up with John Mayer … so does this mean she is beginning a new relationship with this new gent?

Now, in all fairness, I suppose it’s possible that Jen is just casually canoodling with this dude and nothing of substance may come if it at all. In fact, if it weren’t for that last especially snuggly photo of Jen with this dude, one could’ve assumed they were just friends or close cousins or something (tho, I suppose I may be mistaking “snuggliness” for Jen just reaching down to pick up her purse or something). I dunno … Jen doesn’t often sneak away to resort locations with men unless it means something. Seeing these pics makes me miss Mayerston … is that wrong?

While her Hills nemesis, Lauren LC Conrad, was bizzy partying the night away (and generally mistreating BFF Lauren Lo Bosworth on the red carpet) on Emmy night this past Sunday, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt were in Las Vegas, NV hitting up the scene with Heidi, in particular, taking up DJing duties for a short while at one of the Treasure Island Hotel and Casino hotspots. Here are a few pics of Speidi in Vegas and a few of Heidi doing whatever it was that she was doing behind the DJ decks on Sunday night:

It looks to me that Speidi weren’t going to let the fact that they weren’t invited to the Emmy Awards or any of its afterparties get in the way of their good time … they just got the hell out of town and made their way to Sin City where they are always welcomed with open arms. Yeah, I’m not entirely sure that Heidi really did much DJing but she sure did a lot of posing with those earphones. They look fun to party with, don’t they?

At last … now we know why Lauren Lo Bosworth really won out the battle of the BFFs against Audrina Patridge for the right to be Lauren LC Conrad’s one and only #2 … here are a couple pics of LC and Lo on the red carpet for the 6th Annual TV Guide Emmy Afterparty that show just how handy it is to have a Lo around:

Now that Lo won the battle of BFF supremacy, she has the sole right to bow down and touch the hem of LC’s garment … and inspect it for any imperfections that might need tending to. Oh yeah, you know Audrina ain’t down with that shizz. At last … it all becomes so clear.

Hap-hap Happy Day! I had been hesitant to speculate about the relationship enjoyed between Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson because I was not willing to make a full determination of the parameters of their involvement until one or both of them went on the record about it. Up until now, I was happy to refer to them as BFFs because even if they were involved romantically, calling them BFFs would still be valid. BUT, last night Lindsay was a guest on the sex-advice radio program Loveline (hosted by Dr. Drew and Stryker) and she seemed to confirm that she and Samantha are “going out” with one another. I, for one, am thrilled for them both … and am very happy to know that they are, apparently, in love with one another. Here is a cute pic of L. Ron enjoying one another’s company at the 6th Annual TV Guide Emmy Afterparty on Sunday night (which was held at The Kress in LA) and a direct transcription of Lindsay’s confirmation to DJ Stryker on Loveline last night:

Stryker: What’s your plan for the rest of the night? You gonna watch your girl spin at that TV Guide party and watch the Bravery?
LL: I’m here to support, I’m here to support and I love the Bravery so …
Stryker: Yeah, they’re awesome … now you guys, you and Samantha have been going out for how long now?
LL: [Laughs]
Stryker: Like 20, 2 years, 1 year, 5 months, 2 months?
LL: A long, very long time.
Stryker: Well good, I hope you guys stay together. You’re a very lovely looking couple.
LL: Thank you very much.

Stryker also asked if she and Sam would like to come on a future ep of Loveline together and Linds said that they might possibly do that. Wee! I am so happy for the both of them … they both look so happy, happier than I’ve ever seen them before they got together. They are officially my fave new Hollywood couple!!!! Incidentally, the majority of Lindsay’s interview had to do with the tragic plane crash involving Travis Barker and DJ AM, the last bit about the L. Ron relationship was just tacked on as the interview was ending. Click HERE to hear Lindsay’s entire Loveline interview … the confirmation comes in at about the 6:30 point of the interview. Ain’t lurve grand?
