After parting ways for a few days at the conclusion of their Mexican holiday last week, Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson reunited again in LA last night as the ladies were snapped at the ArcLight Theater in Hollywood, CA. Earlier in the day, Lindsay ventured out alone to pick up some candy to snack on (I guess Hayden Panettiere isn’t the only Hollywood “It” Girl with a sweet tooth) but by nightfall she was back in the company of her dear Sam — awww! Here are a few pics:

Can I just say how much I love how “boring” L. Ron has become. By that I mean, they don’t really go out and party like they used to … they do stuff like shop, see movies and rent DVDs. It’s really refreshing to see a Hollywood couple engage in nice, quiet activities together. You can tell that they really enjoy one another’s company and, apparently, that’s enough to keep them satisfied. I’m glad that the ladies have been reunited once again … the world feels right again now that they’re back together. Any guesses on what L. Ron saw last night?

Heroes star Hayden Panettiere was spotted picking up a few sweet treats from Yummy Cupcakes in Burbank, CA earlier today … I wonder if she’s got plans to share them with someone special? Mebbe her paramour Milo Ventimiglia?

HaLo haven’t really been seen out on the town together very much lately, I hope everything is OK. I realize that Hayden may be a bit preoccupied with her father’s legal woes but I hope that everything is cool with the Heroes lurvers. Incidentally, a few folks have asked if I am no longer a fan of the show since I no longer post recaps of Heroes on the blog. I am still very much a fan of the show and have been watching it since the season premiere but I just don’t have the time to do the recaps anymore. There is an awful lot going on the show this season, it’s very exciting and very cool … I’d hate to half-ass it, so I’m just watching and enjoying the show like everyone else. Last night’s ep was really freaking good … happy homemaker Sylar was prolly the scariest incarnation of him that I’ve ever seen ;) But I digress, to get back on point … here’s hoping that everything is still A-OK with Hayden and Milo … and here’s hoping that they are able to enjoy these delicious cupcakes together :)

David Beckham was spotted at a Team England training session in London Colney, north of London, England earlier today ahead of the English Soccer Team’s World Cup qualifier match against Kazakhstan this weekend. Becks was penalized with a one-game suspension from playing with the LA Galaxy after he garnered 5 penalty yellow cards … yeah, I don’t know much about soccer but I do know that that is not cool Becks, not cool at all:

David Beckham will miss the Los Angeles Galaxy’s final road game of the season Oct. 18 at Houston because of a mandatory one-game suspension for earning his fifth yellow card. Beckham was penalized in the first half of the Galaxy’s 1-0 loss at Columbus on Saturday. He won’t be available for Sunday’s home game against Colorado after being called to England’s national team for two World Cup qualifiers, so Beckham will have to serve his suspension against the Dynamo. The Galaxy are 0-2-1 in games that Beckham has missed this season, scoring just twice and being shut out twice. Galaxy players Alan Gordon, Brandon McDonald and Greg Vanney also will be suspended for the game in Houston if they pick up a yellow card against Colorado.

It’s kinda sad that these LA Galaxy knuckleheads are better at scoring yellow cards than they are at scoring actual goals. Here’s hoping Becks is able to do a better job for Team England otherwise they’re likely to stop asking him to come play for them. Good luck, Becks!

Yesterday we saw a couple of fun pics of Brad Pitt riding a bike on the streets of New Orleans, LA as he made his way to a business meeting and I wondered aloud (er, you know what I mean) if Angelina Jolie and their mess o’ kids had relocated from NYC (where they were this weekend for the New York Film Festival premiere of Ange’s new movie Changeling) to New Orleans as well … it turns out that they did, indeed, fly down to N.O. with daddy Braddy. Here are a couple pics of a very Morticia Addams-looking Angelina with a selection of her children walking the streets of New Orleans yesterday afternoon:

I find it very interesting that neither Ange nor Brad ever ventures out in public with all of the their children in tow. Even if you consider they prolly wouldn’t want to cart around the baby twins in public just yet, neither parent ever takes all of the toddler-aged children out en masse. It’s as if at least one has to be left home or in someone else’s care for some reason. I reminds me of the practice of leaving one member of the US President’s Cabinet at home when the State of the Union Address calls for almost full attendance of the US governmental leadership (ie. a ranking member of government must be kept away from the full Cabinet should a catastrophe occur in order for the line of succession to be carried out). It’s kinda like they have to leave at least one spare child at home to carry on the Brangelina brood should a tragedy befall them … I imagine there is a binder in the family safe that lists instructions on repopulating the family by carrying out their plans to adopt every orphan in the world. Hey, it’s possible. Or, you know, mebbe Maddox was just hanging with his friends. At any rate, it’s nice to see that the family likes to travel together, even if they don’t necessarily have to be all together 24/7.

Yay! There is great and hopeful news to report this afternoon … People magazine is claiming that Sarah Silverman and Jimmy Kimmel (who broke off their relationship over the summer) are “back on”. The couple attended the NYC wedding of Howard Stern and Beth Ostrosky this past weekend and the mag quotes a source close to the couple who says that they are working on their romantic reconciliation by “taking it slow”. I don’t know about you but, I think this is AMAZING news :) Here are a couple pics of Sarah and Jimmy outside the Manhattan venue where Stern and Ostrosky were wed and the deets from People mag:

Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman are back together. “They’re taking it slow,” says a source. “They’re on the road back to being together again.” The comedians, who ended their five-year relationship in July, have recently been spotted on dates on both coasts. On Sept. 28, Kimmel, 40, and Silverman, 37, enjoyed a laughter-filled dinner together at L.A.’s Pattaya Thai Restaurant, says a source, and left holding hands. Less than a week later, they attended pal Howard Stern’s Oct. 3 wedding at New York City’s Le Cirque restaurant, where Kimmel was spotted wrapping his arms around Silverman’s waist and playfully grabbing her backside in plain view of photographers. Reps for the comedians had no comment.

Oh yeah, this is really awesome news … I really, really like Sarah and Jimmy together. They make such a great couple and I always felt that they were well-suited for one another. I really hope they each stay committed to making it work cuz I’m really rooting for these two. Don’t you just love these guys together?

Last night I was very fortunate enough to attend Neil Gaiman’s sole SoCal stop on his new book tour for his latest work The Graveyard Book. As I mentioned before, Gaiman is touring the country reading chapters from his new book in lieu of his traditional book signing tours — the readings are then posted online HERE so that everyone can enjoy them. It turns out that Neil suffered a broken finger and cannot endure his usual 5-hour booksigning regimen but this book reading tour is, IMHO, vastly more entertaining. There was a nice crowd of folks already in line when I showed up at Lincoln Middle School in Santa Monica, CA (where last night’s reading took place). In addition to hearing Neil read from his new book, we were also treated to preview video footage from the animated version of his book Coraline, that will be released in theaters next February. It was directed by Henry Selick, the same man who directed Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas and features the voices of Dakota Fanning and Teri Hatcher. We were also treated to a Q&A and a special reading of his soon-to-be released picturebook Blueberry Girl (illustrated by Charles Vess), which features the prayer/poem that Neil wrote for Tori Amos’s unborn daughter back in 2000. Here are a few pics from last night’s reading and a bunch of great info from the event:

Before the reading, Neil’s book publicist Elise brought me backstage to say hello to Neil before he was to take the stage. Randomly Emmy Rossum was with him backstage helping him sort thru audience questions for the Q&A portion of the night. I got to hang out with them both for about 15 minutes … it was then that Neil allowed me to see, hold and read (for the first time) the Blueberry Girl picturebook which hasn’t been published yet — he had with him the unbound galley version of the book. Neil read half of Chapter 7 of The Graveyard Book (because it is the longest chapter in the book it had to be spilt between two readings) and it can already be seen online HERE. After the jump, read about some of the questions he answered from the audience, check out the cover artwork for Blueberry Girl (which Neil allowed me to photograph for sharing) and watch video of Neil reading the Blueberry Girl poem himself …
