Olympic Yearbook - Most Likely To Appear In Playboy

Yes, Canadian-American Tanith Belbin posed practically naked on the cover of Men’s Health, in celebration of the mag naming her America’s Hottest Athlete. And yes, she is H.O.T. But beyond her insanely good looks lies an ice dancer with a competitive streak, and she’s chasing the gold alongside her skating partner Ben Agosto in Vancouver this month.

Tanith, 25, moved to the States as a teenager from her native Canada to find an ice dancing partner that matched her skill level, and was granted expedited citizenship by President Bush in 2005 so that she could compete in the 2006 Winter Olympics, where they snagged the silver medal. Sure, Tanith is hot enough to melt the ice under her skates (we’re sure her rumored ice dancing flame Evan Lysacek would agree), but changing your citizenship to compete for the ultimate prize? Now that’s just mother-effin’ bad-ass…kinda like that sexy Men’s Health cover.

Lindsay Lohan obviously knows that, if you want to be effective, you have to play to your strengths.

Fresh off her child-saving campaign in India, LiLo has turned her sights toward helping the earthquake victims in Haiti, via a method that she’s obviously quite skilled at: Partying.

We already heard that Ellen DeGeneres and Simon Cowell argued after the departing judge showed up an hour and a half late for her first day at Hollywood week, and a new report says the pair continue to “lock horns” on stage. But on the eve of her first episode, which airs tonight, Ellen has been quick to frame their disagreements in a positive light. “Everyone’s making such a big deal of the tension, but there’s been a lot of fun on that panel,” she said on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show. “I think he’s a funny guy. I like him on [the show this] Wednesday. I like him on one day, I can’t remember which. He’s going to be a challenge. He’s Simon and I’m me and we’re two different people. We’ll see how it goes.”

Not that the producers aren’t willing to exploit any drama. In an interview on the show’s website she’s even quoted saying Cowell is “actually meaner than I thought. It’s hard to listen to him tell people things and for me not to go, ‘You poor thing!’” Maybe painting him as an ogre will keep fewer fans from fleeing after he bolts for his own show, The X Factor, next year. At the very least, expect to hear more coherent sentences from her chair tonight than you did all of last season from Paula Abdul.

Earlier today we revealed what Beyonce Knowles looks like fresh outta bed. Soon after posing nude-faced for her fans on a Rio de Janeiro hotel balcony, Bey got all dolled-up to shoot a music video with Alicia Keys. Striking poses and steaming up a rusty bus in tri-colored eyeshadow, floral hotpants, and 5″ heels; she proved for the 5,986th time that she can do no wrong. [Photos: Splash News Online]

“Jersey Shore” dancing machine Snooki has found her juice-head. The lucky guy is named Emilio Antonio (Italian. Check.), moonlights as a bodybuilder (Gorilla. Check.), and works at the gym (G.T.L. Triple Check!). Says Snooki:

“He is just like my typical guido juicehead with like a good personality. I am really excited to like show the public who he is. He is freaking banging. We’re the sexiest couple I have ever seen in my entire life so I am excited for everybody to see that.”

We’re thrilled for the lil’ lady that she’s locked up a Valentine’s Day date, but we’re sure she’s leaving a trailer of heartbroken suitors in her wee wake. Let’s all let out a collective “Wahhhhhhhhhh” for all the guys that could have found love with Princess Poof. Maybe Angelina is available?

Either Bradley Cooper was coming down with a serious fever at last night’s Valentine’s Day premiere in Hollywood, or the Hangover hunk seriously needs to work on his tanning technique. It’s gotta be tough to work around manicured stubble, but you can’t just rub, spray or stick a lamp on your cheeks and forehead, dude. When you ignore the ears, jaw and neck it’s just…yow. Hopefully it’s the kind that wipes off fast!

Take a closer look at Coop’s inconsistent orange aura in the gallery below.

When one thinks of bowling shoes and bowling shirts, stylish isn’t usually what comes to mind. Punny-named teams and embroidered two-toned nightmares, yes. Stylish, no. Leave it to Chloe Sevigny though to boost the hipness factor at a charity bowling event where everyone had to wear the same ugly uniform.  Last night at the Second Stage Theater Company All-Star Bowling Classic, plenty of celebs showed up to support the New York theater, but only Chloe managed to make the mandated look her own. We’ve highlighted her outfit here, but check out some of the less sartorially creative participants below. [Photos: Getty Images]

Brooke Mueller was reunited with husband Charlie Sheen yesterday for the first time since she had the Two And A Half Men star arrested for allegedly threatening her with a knife over Christmas weekend. The couple returned to Aspen separately last weekend to have his restraining order modified. “I can tell you, Brooke very badly wanted to have contact with Charlie,” said her lawyer, Yale Galanter. “There are many children’s issues that she wanted to communicate with him about.” Though Sheen visited his wife when she was hospitalized with pneumonia in LA last month, he was legally restricted from communicating with her and still faces felony assault charges. “Brooke would like this case to be over and charges dismissed so they can get on with their lives,” said Galanter.

While the couple left in separate vehicles after hugging in court, Radar claims the pair took a private airplane back to California together later that day. “Charlie and Brooke stood outside on the tarmac and seemed to be deeply involved in a heart-to-heart conversation, all the while smoking cigarettes,” said their alleged eyewitness. “They were clearly relieved to be back in each other’s company and even shared a joke or two.” Sheen, who has yet to give his plea, will return to Aspen for another court date next month.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have taken legal action against the British tabloid News Of The World for claiming the celebs have made legal plans to separate.  “The News of the World has failed to meet our clients’ reasonable demands for a retraction of and apology for these false and intrusive allegations which have now been widely republished by mainstream news outlets,” said a member of their legal team. “We have advised them to bring proceedings which they have now done.” It might surprise you that they’re only suing one tabloid, considering how many rumors they’ve endured over the last five years, but the popularity of the story—remember last month’s rush of  #Brangelinabreakup tweets?—and that it came from Britain, where libel laws put the weight of proof on the publisher, make it a perfect opportunity for Brangelina to strike back at the vultures who would dare doubt their eternal love.

Ironically, the tabloid happens to be owned by Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation, which also runs Fox. That studio happens to be the home of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, the film that sparked the gossip magnet that is Brangelina in the first place. The couple has yet to say whether they are seeking monetary damages.

While Valentine’s Day looks like little more than a well-timed fluffy date movie, its cast is nothing short of all-star. Leading ladies Anne Hathaway, Jennifer Garner, Jessica Biel, and Jessica Alba were amidst last night’s star-studded premiere in Hollywood. Though all four actresses have a hard time looking less-than-gorgeous, their red carpet garb was hit-and-miss. While Hathaway dazzled in a mini blue number, the other ladies left us bored and/or horrified. Poor J-Biel evoked candy cane dreams in her frilly disaster of a dress. Alba looked okay from the shoulders down, but her mop was in dire need of a blowout. Jen Garner’s body was bangin’ in a form-fitting strapless frock, but she could’ve chosen something less snooze-inducing. Whose Valentine look do you love?
