Britney’s Ex Is Going To Jail

Adnan Ghalib, Britney Spears‘ old paparazzo boyfriend who allegedly threatened to release a sex tape and legally can’t contact her until 2012, is headed to jail. Pleading no contest to charges that he intentionally hit a process server with his car last February, Ghalib will spend 45 days in prison in exchange for having two of his felony counts dropped. On top of his time behind bars, Ghalib will be placed on probation for 36 months, complete a year of anger management classes and serve another 45 days doing hard labor. We’re sure Jamie Spears feels just horrible for him.

The Silliest Scandals Of 2009

While 2009 started on an optimistic note, the year probably won’t go down as one of America’s finest—what with all the wars, economic crises and political gridlock and everything. Despite all this serious business, we still found plenty of time to pay attention to the antics of celebrities big and small—a little too much attention, on occasion. Here are ten controversies that, while treated like big deals at the time, we probably won’t tell our grandchildren about.

Oh noes! Michael Phelps smoked pot!

There were already signs Olympic hero Michael Phelps was not without his vices—that stripper he dated, for instance—but that didn’t keep people from being outraged when a photograph revealed that the swimmer not only knew what a bong was, but actually used one at a party! Despite apologizing, Phelps was suspended from swimming for three months and Kellogg dropped him as a spokesperson, not wanting their munchies to be associated with marijuana use. Phelps was back breaking records and winning medals by summer’s World Aquatic Championships—but with his drug use now a matter of public record, he’ll never grace the front of a Frosted Flakes box again.

Oh noes! Christian Bale got mad on a movie set!

Holy tirade, Batman! Christian Bale became an Internet laughingstock after NSFW audio of the Dark Knight star tearing into cinematographer Shane Hurlbut leaked from the set of Terminator: Salvation. While friends tried to explain how distracting it is for a crew to work on lighting during a scene, webheads couldn’t keep from wedging “Ohhhhh, goooood for you!” and “F— sake, man, you’re amateur!” into every clip they could. The giggles had mostly died down by the time Public Enemies came out, but we still can’t see the guy without yelling “NO!!! NNNOOO!!!”

Now that we’ve revealed the Five Cheesiest Moments from The Twilight Saga: New Moon, let’s discuss what made the Twi-hards go wild. Here are our top five favorite moments from the much-anticipated sequel. Spoilers ahead!

5. We’ll be honest. We thought Anna Kendrick‘s role as Jessica in Twilight was annoying and poorly acted. Homegirl stepped it up for New Moon! She provided some of the most (intentionally) funny moments in the film as she frankly expressed her annoyance with Bella’s depression and lack of appreciation for shopping.

Heidi, Fergie Rock Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show

Heidi Klum, Fergie, Victoria's Secret Model

Five weeks after the birth of her fourth child, Heidi Klum was back on the runway, hosting a Victoria’s Secret fashion show in New York City. The model once again shrugged off her amazing metabolism while talking to Extra. “I didn’t do too much, I have to tell you,” she said. “I do eat very healthy and I drink lots of water and I breastfeed and I’m just very active.” The show featured the Black Eyed Peas as musical accompaniment, while Klum’s underlings paraded the latest in lingerie, to the delight of attendees like Michelle Trachtenberg, Richard Branson and Keri Hilson. Take a peep in the gallery below.

Kim Kardashian & Lil Kim

Kim Kardashian wasn’t the only Kim turning heads at Diddy‘s 40th birthday party at the Plaza last night. Lil’ Kim, putting aside her beef over Notorious, helped celebrate her old producer’s big day. The shindig featured guests from all corners of the industry—from Baby and Cassie to Denzel Washington and Bono—and Al Green as the night’s entertainment. Check out the festivities in the gallery below.

Sharon Stone: Cameltoe In Toyko

Sharon Stone

Sharon Stone reminded Tokyo of the sexy roles (or rather, parts) she’s famous for, slipping into some tiiiiiight pants to hawk her new line of Damiani jewelry at the Takashimaya department store. Of course, since this was a classy affair, she tossed a fur stole on top of everything. While not as baffling as Monday’s leather trenchcoat and lace dress ensemble, we’re still impressed with how she manages to make black-on-black look oh so wack.

Pamela Anderson Tells Sons About Her Sex Tape

58760212

Parents always dread those difficult talks they have to have with their children, but there are only a few people in this world who will have to have this particular conversation, and one of them is Pamela Anderson, who has gotten that sex tape talk out of the way. After the movie Borat, which discussed Pamela’s tape, was released, the Baywatch babe felt it was time to tell her two sons about her foray into homemade porn. “I knew kids were going to watch the film and there was a reference to the tape in the movie and they’re that age and, you know, people are going start saying things,” she said.

So how did she begin to have the sex tape talk with sons Brandon, 12, and Dylan, 11? “I just said, ‘Look, Mommy and Daddy were massively in love, we videotaped everything, everything was videotaped, and you’re probably going to hear something at school,’” she said.

It’s hard to imagine a world of daytime television without Oprah Winfrey, but according to the queen of daytime, she will be ending her syndicated talk show on September 9, 2011. Oprah will reportedly explain her decision to end the show and focus on her cable network on today’s episode. While some of her pals were celebrating Diddy‘s birthday over at the Plaza Hotel last night, they weighed in on the shocking announcement. “She’ll do another show. She’s evolving. She’s fabulous,” Martha Stewart said. BFF Gayle King said that she is not worried about the future of her longtime gal pal. “When you think about it, Oprah Winfrey has been No. 1 every single year since she started,” Gayle said. “We don’t need to worry about her filling her time, I promise you that. Life is good for her.” So what do you think is next for O? [Source: People, Photo: Getty Images]

Holly Madison Stomps Grapes

Holly Madison really doesn’t like those new Girls Next Door. Rather than take out her aggression in a negative way, however, Holly made wine out of her frustration when she stomped on some grapes at the 2009 Beaujolais Nouveau celebration at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas. Holly of course dressed cute for the occasion, and paled around with a Lucille Ball lookalike. Check out our gallery of Holly! [Photos: Splash News Online]
