Britney’s Digital Diet: Britney Spears’ new video for “Piece of Me”
appears to have used a little digital magic to slim down the pop singer. The
newly released complete video shows off a much slimmer Britney, as compared to
the footage that was released last week, according to a report by E! Online. The Web site claims Britney was
digitally shrunk and slimmed for the final release of the video. No word on any
digital removing of wigs or Starbucks cups.

Helena Bonham Carter & Tim Burton Have A Baby: Someone else who
might be feeling a little smaller is Helena Bonham Carter. The actress gave
birth on Saturday to a baby girl, according to a report by People. This makes two kids for Helena and
director Tim Burton. The actor’s rep told the mag, “They are absolutely
delighted they have a daughter. It’s a lovely Christmas present for the family.”
Their next collaboration together, “Sweeney Todd,” opens this Christmas.

Jessica Simpson Football Bad Luck Charm: Jessica Simpson was in the
stands for Tony Romo’s football game on Sunday, but the pop singer’s presence
did not help the QB, with Dallas losing to Philadelphia, 10-6. It seems Tony
might have been distracted by Jessica’s pink number nine jersey. According to a
report in People, one female fan reportedly yelled at the
QB, “Worry about the game, not your girlfriend!” Snap!.

Tom And Katie Get Their Dion On: Tom and Katie were also in the crowd
this week, cheering on the Celine Dion farewell concert crowd in Las Vegas. The
couple attended Celine’s final Vegas show on Friday night, according to a report
in People. The crowd went Tom & Katie crazy,
screaming when they walked in. Tom waved to the fans and signed autographs, but
joined in with the standing ovation when Celine took to the stage. It appears
even Tom knows there’s only one spotlight when Celine takes the stage.

Alec Baldwin Offers to Host Golden Globes: Alec has come up with a
good solution for the Golden Globes, if the Hollywood writer’s strike isn’t
settled by the time the award show rolls around. The actor has offered up his
