–Justin Timberlake has written an open letter apologizing for that “distasteful” video mocking homeless people at his $6.5 million Italian wedding — and by apologizing, I mean distancing himself from it.

–Jessica Biel has changed her name to Jessica Timberlake. Feel free to continue referring to her as “that girl with little talent but a great ass,” though.

-The latest celebrity victim of phone hacking is Sofia Vergara, proving once again that fameballs will never, never learn the dangers of taking sexy pics with their phone.

–Jonah Hill is no longer dating Dustin Hoffman‘s daughter, ruining my dream of Jonah and Dustin teaming up for a Rain Man remake. *pout*

–Chris Brown‘s rep says the singer definitely didn’t call a fan the f-word. ‘Cause that would be so very out of character for him.

–Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart still have ‘trust issues,’ a close source tells People. Cripes, ya think?

-At least Robsten were spotted reunited after their separate Breaking Dawn, Part 2 promo jaunts abroad.

-It seems like the cast of Gossip Girl all got haircuts as soon as the show wrapped. First Penn Badgley showed off his newly shorn locks, and now it’s Leighton Meester’s turn. Did they all go in together on a Groupon or something?

-Speaking of Gossip Girl, Vulture just recapped the best comments posted on their recap.

-MTV settled a rape lawsuit with a Real World alum after implying ‘she asked for it.’ Nice.

–Usher just won a $12k bidding war for a puppy. So that’s what celebrities do when they have more money than they know what to do with.

-Isn’t the Bridget Jones’ 3 movie supposed to be happening soon? Shouldn’t Renee Zellweger being putting on the pounds? Cause it looks like she’s going the opposite way.

-The latest celebrity Obama ad asks Lena Dunham to describe her first time.

–Marion Cotillards’ new Dior ad is lovely.

-How did I miss this Paypal ad starring Drunk Jeff Goldblum?

-It warms my heart that Alyson Hannigan and Seth Green will be reuniting on How I Met Your Mother. Willow + Oz 4eva!

-Remember Zach Anner? He’s the stand-up comedian with cerebral palsy who auditioned to host a travel show on Oprah’s network. He didn’t win, so he launched a web series instead. The first episode took him to Montreal.

-This is Jessica Simpson after losing 60 lbs. Can you tell? Can you pretend to care?

-The ‘Bic pen for ladies’ outrage is pretty played at this point, but good on Ellen Degeneres for deciding to take a crack at it anyway.

–Hawaii Five-O‘s Alex O’Loughlin and his girlfriend just welcomed a son.

-How amazing was last night’s Parks and Recreation? Amy Poehler and Adam Scott talk about their characters’ big moment.

–Taylor Swift and Conor Kennedy have split. Quick, someone check Ethel’s pulse!

-People’s alternate Justin Timberlake/Jessica Biel cover is slightly less eye-rolly. See more pics from their wedding here.

-Brace yourself: a Kurt and Courtney musical might be in our future.

–Amy Poehler is ABC’s Person of the Week! (Actually this came from last week, but I consider her to be the Person of the Week year-round.)

-Meanwhile, Amy‘s BFF Tina Fey gave a rousing speech last night. “If I have to listen to one more grey-faced man with a $2 haircut explain to me what rape is, I’m going to lose my mind.” Word.

–James Franco denied dating Kristen Stewart (while managing to throw in a mention that he is one of the few stars who actually goes to movies at TIFF).

-Speaking of KStew, a new Breaking Dawn clip shows off  her crazy vampire strength (and surprisingly not bad wig).

–Idris Elba is in talks to be the first black James Bond. Me likey!

–Ashley Greene and a dude no one knew she was dating broke up.

-Want to gawk at Jon Hamm and Jessica Pare in their bathing suits? Yeah ya do.

–Mariah Carey had an eight-hour, $1,500 massage. How do you even walk after that? You’d be a wet noodle. Oh wait, she doesn’t walk.

–Tom Cruise is suing a tabloid for saying he abandoned Suri since he hasn’t seen her for months. Wouldn’t a quick photo opp be easier?

-This is made with awesome sauce: Modern Family‘s Eric Stonestreet surprised his on-screen hubby Jesse Tyler Ferguson with a serenade from the Boston Gay Men’s Chorus.

–Eli Roth showed 200 Amazonian villagers their first movie and they were all “meh.”

–Oprah Winfrey says her Justin Bieber Q&A is “one of the most in-depth interviews’ the star has ever done.” And yet the clip they’re using to promote it is snore-inducing.

–Bradley Cooper gets to star in Cameron Crowe’s next movie AND make out with Emma Stone.

–Malin Akerman showcases the almost civilized parts of Canada in this new Funny or Die clip.

-Here’s some photos of Aaron Paul in Spain, just ’cause.

–Katie Holmes wore a $70 dress and the world continued to turn!!

–Lindsay Lohan‘s publicist has quit after all her latest drama. Think she qualifies for workers’ comp?

-I saw a preview of Cloud Atlas this week (it’s actually better than the critics would have you believe) and it totally reignited my Jim Sturgess crush. Then I saw his new ‘stache. Crush nullified.

-So, the Gossip Girl writers are just totally messing with us at this point, right?

Justin Timberlake’s Wedding Photo (Featuring a Small Cameo by Jessica Biel)

-The Justin Timberlake/Jessica Biel wedding cover from People has landed, and it’s even more amazing than we could have ever predicted. Of course (of course!) it’s all about Justin, whose leap practically fills the frame while Jessica is relegated to sitting on the floor and virtually blending into the background (and disapproving ex Britney Spears looks on from the top right corner — I’m guessing that wasn’t cleared in their photo rights contract). JT even stole Jessica’s thunder by singing while she was walking down the aisle. Dude, that was her ONE chance to shine! Gawker‘s headline says it all: “As Details Leak, It Becomes Apparent Jessica Biel Was Merely a Guest at Justin Timberlake’s Wedding to Himself”

-That awkward wedding photo has already been eclipsed by more awkwardness: as first revealed by Lainey, Justin‘s friend and L.A. real estate agent Justin Huchel showed an 8-minute video at the ceremony of homeless people congratulating the happy couple. Soo funny, right?!? Gawker posted a clip and was immediately served with a letter from Huchel’s lawyer stating the footage was “to be used and exhibited privately at Justin Timberlake’s wedding as a private joke.” Because it’s totally ok and in no way disgusting to make fun of the destitute as long as no one finds out!

-Also, JT didn’t invite Joey Fatone and Lance Bass to the nuptials which — given everything we’ve heard about it so far — means they dodged a bullet.

-Bobby Brown was arrested for another DUI. Must be a day that ends in ‘y’.

–Jessica Simpson‘s parents just annouced they’re getting a divorce as rumours circulate that Joe Simpson recently came out to the fam.

–Hugh Jackman opens up about being abandoned by his mom and makes women around the world want to hug him (even more so than usual).

–Christina Applegate opens up her breast cancer ordeal — and manages to slip in a sweet Anchorman reference!

-Speaking of Christina, she and her fiance Martyn LeNoble are reportedly being harassed by a Twitter stalker.

-The curse of the red carpet makeup mishap has struck our beloved Jon Hamm.

–Brad Pitt wants to remind us that Angelina‘s “still naughty.” Um, thanks?

–Taylor Swift teaches us all a valuable lesson in her “Begin Again” video. If you ever find yourself dumped by Jake Gyllenhaal, all you have to do is go to Paris and flirt with cute French boys to get over it. Noted.

–Lindsay Lohan live-tweeted the presidential debate. For reals.

–Robert Pattinson says he and Kristen Stewart have “pretty ridiculous sex” — in Breaking Dawn Part 2, at least.

-Meanwhile, I’m really digging the outfit Kristen wore in Tokyo.

-TV fans: Misfits season four starts this Sunday in the UK and will air the next day on Hulu. But I can’t access Hulu, you say? Hmmmm….

–Nick Offerman shows you how to grow a Movember mustache, just in case you need help.

–Tom Hanks went on Jimmy Fallon last night to recite a slam poem about Full House. And it was awesome.

-This might be my favourite Tumblr ever.

-What’s Madonna like as a mom? Predictably strict, according to her son Rocco.

-NBC may be holding Community hostage, but at least they’re letting you remix the show’s previous Halloween episodes.

-ABC just purchased a viking drama from Charlize Theron. Yup, I’m intrigued.

-I really needed this Friday Night Lights mashup of Coach Taylor’s pep talks today.

–Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are reportedly mad at Ashley Benson for dumping Bieb‘s swagger coach for James Franco.

–Nicole Kidman talks about the end of her marriage and the filming of Eyes Wide Shut in a new piece she wrote for The Hollywood Reporter.

-The first TV trailer for The Hobbit has landed. I still can’t bring myself to care, for some reason.  Just me?

-The latest trailer for Nicholas Sparks‘ Safe Haven starring Julianne Hough (seriously, we’re still trying to make her happen?!) and Josh Duhamel has landed,and it looks a whole lot like The Notebook, from the canoe ride to the rain-drenched kiss.
