LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Your Daily Dispatch of Celebrity Shenanigans!

Emma Watson – More Magical Than Hermione!: She might play a young witch who is born of Muggle parents in “Harry Potter,” but according to Ancestry.com, Emma Watson has a distant relative who was an actual witch – or at least a woman convicted of witchcraft. According to the family roots-tracing Web site, Emma is a distant relative of Joan Playle of Essex County, England, who was convicted of witchcraft in 1592 and kicked out of the Church of England. We’re glad to see that witches – and the young ladies who play them on the big screen – are cast in a better light in 2009.

Jessica Takes A Wedge To The Head: Jessica Simpson has been going through a rough patch since her breakup with Tony Romo and now the singer is getting shoes thrown at her! “My godson Dylan giving me a hug after hitting me in the back with my louboutin leopard wedges. His “I’m sorry” LOVE,” Jessica said in the caption of a photo she posted on Twitter. Not even toddlers are cutting poor Jess some slack – kids leave poor Jesse alone.

Jess’ Hair & Makeup Bill – More Than J.Lo’s!: In more news from the blonde country singer’s life, Jessica’s beauty needs for her upcoming reality show, “Price of Beauty” come with quite a hefty price tag of its own, according to The New York Post. “To get her camera-ready each episode will cost $25,000,” a Page Six source claimed. “She insists on using her own hair, makeup and fashion stylists, who are more expensive than J.Lo’s.” Jess’s rep told the paper, “A budget was approved when the deal was made. All parties were satisfied.” We have to admit Jess’ hair does usually looks fab – money well spent!

Taylor & Taylor Get Frisky: Hey Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift, just another hard day at the office? XOXO – Roll Call!
