BRAD PITT DOES 'TODAY' FOR TOMORROW



Ann Curry gets all the good assignments on the Today show; Antarctica, Africa and now she's interviewing Brad Pitt!  The host sat down with the actor earlier today in New Orleans for an interview that will be shown tomorrow (Tuesday) on the Today show.  The two will most likely discuss Brad's work with the Make It Right project as well as his upcoming film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button which was also shot in New Orleans.  Something tells me that Angelina Jolie and the kids will come up too, just a thought...


       

SHENAE GRIMES GRABS A COFFEE AND A LAUGH



Shenae Grimes is back in the motherland! The Beverly Hills 90210 star stopped by her old "home" of CTV  in Toronto, Canada; if you remember before Shenae was Annie on 90210, she was Darcy on Candian teen drama Degrassi: The Next Generation.  

After her meeting Shenae grabbed some coffee with a friend, it looks like the two of them speak the international language of Starbucks.


      

BRAD PITT IS A BIKER BOY



Brad Pitt may be a devoted husband and father, but that doesn't mean he needs a break every once in awhile. We spotted Bad Brad ridding his motorcycle around in New Orleans this afternoon. 

Besides spending time with his entire Brangelina clan at their southern home, the actor has also been putting in time with his Make it Right charity.  The project works on building affordable and sustainable housing.  Brad told Architectural Digest of his work, "We've cracked something here … these houses redefine affordable housing.  This is a proving ground for a bigger idea that could work globally."

So far, Make it Right has built six houses for victims of Hurricane Katrina and their goal is 150.  "You have no idea what a high it is for me to see the delight on people's faces when they see how these homes work," he says.  We need more people like you Brad!


    

MATTHEW AND CAMILA DO SUSHI IN RIO



Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves are jet setting for the holidays!  The new parents were spotted in Rio de Janeiro in Camila's home country of Brazil.   The couple dined at a Sushi Leblon in Brazil but left baby Levi behind which is probably a good choice; last time I checked babies don't really like raw fish.


       

GOSSIP GUERILLAS ROUND UP



The Thanksgiving holiday is over and don't we all know it! This morning we spotted Sarah Jessica Parker bringing her son James Wilkie to school in the West Village.  Mondays after a little vacation are always the worst but at least James Wilks probably has some more time off to look forward to at Christmas time; don't you miss being a kid?!

Oh, Monday, you always arrive much too soon.  Word on the street is...

Vanessa Hudgens is University of Hawaii Hot - Just Jared Jr.

Lindsay, Sam, Nicole and Benji Boogie Down - Pacific Coast News Online

Helen Mirren Is A 'Tempest' Temptress - Splash News Online



SELENA GOMEZ HAS FLOWER POWER AT THE CHILDREN'S AWARDS



Selena Gomez sure cleans up nice!  The Wizards of Waverly Place star made an appearance in London over the weekend for the British Academy Children's Awards.  It was nice to see that Selena was dressed age appropriately, especially since the awards were for children!  The purple and pink flower dress was a cute look and it compliments her fresh faced look; I think she needs to rub some of that youthful charm off on her smoker-voiced contemporaries Miley Cyrus and Ali Lohan!


     

LILY ALLEN DROPS NEW SINGLE IN LONDON



Lily Allen's back!  The singer stopped by Radio One in London this afternoon to debut her new single "Everyone's At It." 

A little jam about how everyone is on drugs these days, "Everyone's At It" will appear on her sophomore album It's Not Me, It's You, which comes about February 9.  Lily just announced her tour which so far only has dates in the UK, booo!  In the mean time, check out the new single on her MySpace page.  Do you think she can follow up the success of Alright, Still?  Or was Lil, just a flash in the pan?


    

GWEN AND BABY ZUMA GET THEIR HOLIDAY SHOP ON



Baby Zuma Rossdale is officially out and about and is getting ready for his first Christmas.  Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale took out their new son this weekend.  Gwen and Gav pushed Zuma around at the the Lakeshore plaza in Los Angeles.  Gwen was a walking billboard of her own designs, she rocked both a LAMB cardigan and white LAMB sneakers!
