Jesse Helms, quite possibly the biggest bigot the world has ever known, passed away on July 4th. He died a miserable 86 year old man.

Try to contain your sadness.

 

Angelina Jolie and her very-pregnant tummy (supposedly) made an appearance at her hospital room window in the French Riviera. Photographers snapped away, but it’s unclear if the woman is actually Angelina–the actress’ personal assistant, Holly Goline, has the same due date as Angelina, and sports bangs and un-tattooed tummy, much like the woman in the photos.

I have a crazy-lady theory that Angelina actually gave birth a few weeks ago when the original announcement was made, but this bizarre charade has kept going on to confuse the press. In my crazy-lady opinion, Holly Goline is most likely the woman in the hospital, but I’m just a drunky blogger in Boston, so what do I know, right? Right. Nothing.

But anyhoo, I’ll play along, despite the fact that I think it’s all bullshit for extending press coverage.

According to her doctor, Dr. Michel Sussmann, Angelina is expected to spend the next few weeks at the Fondation Lenval Hospital awaiting the birth of her twin girls.

Sussmann said Wednesday that the Oscar-winner could give birth anytime “in the next weeks.”

The doctor has been monitoring Jolie’s pregnancy for the past two months.

“She will only benefit from being monitored at the hospital in the weeks to come,” Sussmann said. “All this is … totally normal.”

Is he nervous having such a high-profile patient? “I’m not nervous at all,” he told People. “She’s a very nice person, very happy. She’s not nervous either.”

Brad Pitt brought daughters Zahara and Shiloh to the maternity ward for a visit on Thursday, but the couple’s boys, Maddox and Pax, have kept a low profile since their mother entered the hospital last weekend.

 

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Amy Winehouse admitted she’s never really been clean from drugs. Although she went to rehab numerous times, Amy claimed she continued using, even while she was undergoing treatment.

‘I’ve never been to rehab. I mean, done it properly. I’m young, and I’m in love, and I get my nuts off sometimes.’

‘To be honest, my husband’s away, I’m bored, I’m young. I felt like there was nothing to live for. It’s just been a low ebb.’

Amy’s record label reportedly put her on a “virtual house arrest,” where she is not allowed to leave her London home without their approval, and no one is allowed to enter without a nod from record label bosses.

This move apparently didn’t work, because photographers snapped Amy running around her neighborhood earlier this week, even jumping into a stranger’s car.

 

Christina Applegate’s 26 year old boyfriend, Lee Grivas, was found dead in his Hollywood apartment yesterday. Authorities said they believe Grivas died of an apparent drug overdose.

“Grivas did have a history of drug abuse, and our investigator found a syringe at the scene,” said Lt. Fred Corral of the L.A. Department of Coroner. “But we’re not making any preliminary conclusions until a toxicology report is completed.”

On Thursday, Applegate, 36, released the following statement: “I am profoundly saddened. Lee was an incredible human being who was an extremely important and beautiful part of my life. He is missed beyond words. He touched so many and I feel much sadness for his mother, brother and all of his family and friends.”

Christina hooked up with fisherman/aspiring photographer shortly after her separation from now ex-husband Jonathon Schaech in 2005.

 

Lindsay Lohan celebrated her 22nd birthday yesterday with girlfriend Samanath Ronson by her side. 100 friends and family helped Lindsay celebrate at an alcohol-free bash at Teddy’s in Hollywood on Wednesday night.

Before the party, Lindsay spoke to Ryan Seacrest for his radio show, and told him her wishes for the upcoming year included “being with the person I care about.” She declined to name that person.

“I just want to live a happy, healthy year and continue on the path I’ve been on and be with the person I care about and my family,” she said on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM show.

Lohan told Seacrest planning the bash was “very overwhelming, but you make the best of it.

“There were people I forgot to invite,” she admitted, “so I had to invite them!”

So what’s Lohan’s birthday wish?

“No more tabloids!” she joked to Seacrest.

Lindsay’s mother Dina, along with brother Michael, showed up for the prom-themed party. Her table was littered with cupcakes and a tiara, and the room was decorated with red, silver, baby blue and light pink balloons. At midnight, guests sang Happy Birthday to Lindsay, who a short pink dress. Samantha later took over DJ duties for an hour while guests danced.
