So … remember that distasteful photo that surfaced of Miley Cyrus, her 20-year old manfriend Justin Gaston and friends making an offensive gesture against Asians by mockingly slanting their eyes? Yeah, that one. Anyways, it turns out that an apology just isn’t enough for one SoCal woman who has filed a class action lawsuit, on behalf of 1 million Asian Pacific Islanders who live in Los Angeles, against Miley to the tune of $4 billion! Heh. I bet Miley is *really* sorry now she thought it was funny to make “goofy” and horribly offensive faces with her pals:

A Los Angeles woman has filed a class action suit against Miley Cyrus, claiming she mocked Asians in a recent photo by slanting her eyes. Price tag: $4 billion. Lucie J. Kim claims to represent more than 1 million Asian Pacific Islanders who live in L.A. County. Kim claims when Cyrus posed for the photo, she “knew or should have known that her image would be publicly disseminated via the media, which Cyrus knew focused on her private life, specifically TMZ.” Kim says in the suit, filed today in L.A. County Superior Court, that each Asian Pacific Islander is entitled to the minimum damages for a civil rights violation — $4,000. Add it up — $4 billion! Kim says Miley’s “just a kid” defense doesn’t fly. She says it’s like Paris Hilton claiming to be just a kid. Ouch. Miley’s peeps could not immediately be reached for comment.

Oh man. While I think that this action on the part of Ms. Kim seems a bit like overkill, I cannot fault her for expressing her outrage in this manner. Do I really believe that she will be successful in her endeavor? No. But I think she will be able to get her point across. If Miley didn’t really learn her lesson before, something tells me that she might get a clue now.

In other related news, the amazing comic Margaret Cho has opted out of filing a lawsuit against Miley Cyrus for her offensive behavior and has, instead, decided to pen a song about the whole incident:

Despite one bratty apology and one forreal apology over the offensive Asian photo, people are still mad at Miley Cyrus, including Margaret Cho. But rather than join the ridiculous billion-dollar class-action lawsuit against Miles, Cho has decided to express her feelings lyrically. The comedian took to her blog to pen [a] little rhyming ditty:

After the jump, check out the full lyrics to Margaret’s song about Miley …

Here are a few new photos of Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson doing a bit of shopping together at Kidrobot on Melrose Ave. here in LA yesterday … it is the first time that we’ve seen L. Ron out and about together in quite some time:

Woot! These two have been out of sight for a while now … I was starting to get a bit concerned that something was amiss in their relationship. I guess it’s just that the pair have finally settled into a place of normalcy … so much so that the paparazzi has mostly given up on stalking their every move. I’d say that’s a win for L. Ron! Here’s hoping the ladies are able to enjoy a lovely Valentine’s Day together this weekend — whatever they do and wherever they may be. I’m just glad to know that things appear to be all good in the land of L. Ron.

90210 star Shenae Grimes was all smiles backstage on the SoCal set of her show yesterday afternoon throwing out waves and smiles to the assembled photogs who were in attendance. Clearly no one mentioned to Ms. Grimes that it is not necessary to use an entire bottle of fake suntan lotion just to color one’s face:

I shudder to think how many bottles of fake tanner she went thru just to get her exposed skin to this shade of orange. I don’t know if that yellow cardigan is doing her any favors but props to the 90210 lighting director who is able to turn this richly colored young starlet a semi-normal shade of human each week on the show. Shenae, doll … less is more.

Holy stretchmarks, Batman! TMZ managed to get their hands on a couple of photos of Nadya Suleman, the woman who gave birth to octuplets here in SoCal last month and is now asking for monetary donations from the public via a new official website in order to help her care for her now 14 children, showing off her baby bump (well, babies bump) just a few days before giving birth. This is what it looks like to carry 8 babies inside one uterus:

The only thing more painful than having eight babies cut out of you: Carrying them in your ridiculously distended belly. Ouch! [These pictures] of a ready to explode Nadya Suleman was taken eight days before giving birth to the last eight of her fourteen kids … Octopussy may not have to pimp out her wombmates for dollars on her website anymore, as this “Alien” photo has just landed her a new gig … the poster mom for anti in vitro fertilization.

UGH! They say that women have a beautiful glow of motherhood during pregnancy but I would NOT use those words to describe what this photo of Suleman and her incubating babies looks like. I suppose the world should be relieved … she kinda looks like she’s got 18 babies up in her biz in these photos. Dang. Her stomach looks almost as plumped up as her lips … almost.

And how much do you wanna bet that her stomach looks like THIS now that all those babies are out.

Josh Duhamel has only been married to Fergie Ferg for a little over a month now and has returned home from his honeymoon a little over 2 weeks ago but he has already started settling into domesticity. As a new husband, Josh now has a bunch of new responsibilities to take on as man of the house … which basically means that he has to do all the crappy work that Fergie can’t be bothered enough to take care of herself. Here are a couple pics of Josh doing some manual house labor outside his LA area home yesterday afternoon:

See, with photos like this … I cannot complain ONE BIT about all the new manual labor that Josh has to take care of now that he’s married. I mean … yeah, those jeans fit him very, very well … wouldn’t you agree? I think I like the “going” better :) Damn, Fergie is one lucky beyotch … it’s kinda hard to not want to hate her.

In addition to carting around heavy pieces of … whatever the hell he’s carting around, Josh’s new duties also include carrying around the couple’s tiny dog — who, apparently, doesn’t like to walk on its own four feet:

OMG … so cute. Josh looks adorable with that little pooch … can you imagine what he would look like if the couple decided to have a baby? UGH. So cute … and so much more reason to hate Fergilicious. I gotta say … I really like seeing Josh Duhamel as a domesticated handyman type … if he slips on a tool belt — OY! I don’t know what I would do.

German supermodel (and sometimes Project Runway host) Heidi Klum is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of German GQ magazine … wearing nothing but her trademark big smile. Here is Heidi’s totally nekkid coverphoto from the March issue of GQ:

Heidi bares all on the cover of the March issue of the magazine’s German edition, and was shot posing provocatively by star photographer Rankin. The TV presenter and mum-of-three still looks sensational at 36. What does her husband Seal (45) think of the naked pictures of his wife? Heidi said: “My husband has seen the photos. I think it’s good to be sexy for your partner.” Seal is definitely one lucky man! The model will also be returning to television screens in Germany from Thursday as she presents the fourth series of ‘Germany’s Next Topmodel’ on Pro 7. Heidi is still in demand as a model herself, and being a mother hasn’t stopped her taking part in the famously sexy Victoria’s Secret fashion shows. She may be one of the world’s most beautiful women, but Heidi often shows off her fun side – she loves to dress up with Seal for their annual Halloween party, and she took part in a gag onstage at the 2008 Emmy awards when her outfit was ripped off in front of a shocked audience!

The GQ article to accompany Heidi’s nekkidness has not been made available online just yet … but there is one more photo of Heidi from this issue, again totally nekkid but sans smile and with scowl. After the jump, check out one more photo of Heidi from his issue …

Yesterday we got to see the first photos of Britney Spears on the Pacific Palisades, CA set of her new music video for the third single off her new album Circus. We heard a few weeks ago that If U Seek Amy would be her next single and we learned yesterday that she’s begun work on the music video. The treatment for the video, according to People magazine, has Britney in the role of a happy homemaker … as if the photos weren’t able to clue us in already. Here are a few more photos from the set of her vid:

Britney Spears is a mega pop star, a mom of two – and now a happy homemaker in her new video, sources tell PEOPLE. The singer, who plans to hit the road for her Circus tour next month, spent Tuesday filming the video for her upcoming single “If U Seek Amy,” in which she plays a sexy housewife dressed in blonde ’50s style wig, fitted pink top and white skirt. “The video begins with Britney coming outside her house to hand the paparazzi an apple pie that she baked,” says a source. “She acts like she wants to hook up. The video is very provocative.” In part of the video, Spears is accompanied by two adorable perfectly-groomed children and a straight-laced man wearing khakis and a sweater over his shoulders. But a source says there are also lots of dancers “dressed in skimpy outfits in metallic color” and revealing costumes for Spears included in the shoot. According to several sources, Spears was very professional and upbeat on the set. “She was like the old Britney at the shoot. She was engaged and excited the whole day and seemed like her old self,” says a source.

Adds X17:

The video was shot at a $4 million traditional home near the Palisades bluffs, and the conservative neighborhood seemed a bit surprised to have the pop princess shoot what is expected to be her most raunchy video to date in their community! However, it seems like everyone involved had a blast, and we can expect a super sexy video very soon! Our on set source tells us: “Britney looked like she was having a blast. Earlier in the day between takes, she was playing this mind reading game with her two boys and they LOVED it. After they left, she was a lot quieter. Around the end of the shoot, she seemd to be getting a little anxious for some reason. She probably was ready to go home.” The front door of the house had a red heart reading ‘I Love You’ in large letters, and our source tells us that for this part of the video (which was the first day of a 2-3 day shoot) Brit plays the role of a “suburban housewife”! We’re picturing Britney with an apron and a pie in her hands, but our source assures us that we can look forward to “a much sexier, risque Britney” in the final video. Filming has wrapped at that location, and there was only one truck cleaning up the remaining props earlier this morning, so we can’t wait to hear about the rest of the shoot!

It sounds like Brit Brit is really going all out, as usual, for this video. I’m having a hard time imaging how the sweet homemaker scenes will pair with the sexier dance scenes that are also said to be included in the video. I’m sure it’ll all make sense in the end … I can’t wait to see it.
