PCN's Gossip Roundup...

Jessica Alba has found a way to not be caught with a scowl on her mug. The 'hat/cell phone/car keys blocking technique' shields her grimace of displeasure as she makes her exit from a relaxing manicure at
Nails Design on Wilshire Boulevard.
The face is obscured, but that bump is a more and more prominent camera magnet.
Since Halle Berry, Jennifer Lopez and even 'Punky Brewster' star Soleil Moon Frye have dropped their belly loads recently, all lenses are now on Jess as Hollywood's highest profile pregnancy.
Don't worry, Jessica. There does seem to be something in the water in L.A.; so I'm sure another knocked-up celeb will waddle along soon to take some of the attention away from you and yours.

Ryan Phillipe let his little bit of hair down during a
post-post-premiere party at Winston's lounge in Hollywood Monday night, looking a little less constipated than at the L.A. 'Stop Loss'
premiere.
The actor's latest love interest, Abbie Cornish, wasn't around; so Ryan hung with old friend Breckin Meyer, who he met on the set of the 1998 disco flick '54.'
Ryan will soon be setting sail for love among the Vikings, playing a character named Thorfinn in the epic 'Last Battle Dreamer.'
All this at the same time ex-wife Reese Witherspoon will be locking in talent for the sequel to a movie about a girl who has the nose of a pig.

Okay, ladies, we all know that 'Gossip Girl' star Leighton Meester is quite the fashion plate - both on and off the set. That doesn't mean she lives in style 24/7. Little miss Meester can have her off moments.
Take this dog-walking ensemble, please. The green pants are not part of the 'Gossip Girl' wardrobe.
Unfortunately, the rest of that outfit
is her on-screen uniform. Blame costume designer Eric Daman, who was an assistant to 'Sex and the City' costumer Patricia Field. If Eric mirrors Patricia's love of the grotesque, wardrobe for these gals will only get wackier.
Leighton's poor dog looks more embarrassed for her than he does by his own demeaning doggie sweater.
By the way, doggie clothes are
never fashionable. Remember that.

Supermodel Claudia Schiffer appeared to be trying out for the wacky new game show 'Soho Shopping Sweep' in New York yesterday.
Claudia checked out the wares at the
Calvin Klein store on Prince Street, then moved on to Anna Sui's boutique on Greene Street, and less than five minutes
later hit J. Crew.
Finally, she dropped (possibly literally) into Marni on Mercer Street. I hope she won something - that's some champion quality shopping.
The 37-year-old model recently disclosed to England's
Daily Mail that she plans to grow old the natural way.
'I don't think I would ever use cosmetic surgery or Botox.'
Later in the interview, she seemed to reconsider:
'Who knows, one day I might look in the mirror, look at my wrinkles and think
Jesus! Then I might want to do something about it.'
Ah, spoken like a true supermodel. When Janice Dickinson was 37-years-old, maybe she felt the same way.

'Off-duty transvestite' Eddie Izzard is back on TV screens tonight in the second season premiere of FX's 'The Riches,' co-starring Mom-to-be Minnie Driver.
Eddie returns to his role as patriarch to a family of traveling grifters who, through a series of unlikely events, take over the life of a deceased lawyer and his suburban family.
A cult figure in America due to stand-up specials like 'Dress to Kill,' Eddie the Brit starts a four-month tour next month, but he really wants to act - and not in flops like 'My Super Ex-Girlfriend.'
Eddie recently told the
New York Times: 'When I was 7, I saw a kid up onstage, and I think it was a substitute for Mum dying. I just thought, I
need that.'
I
need it to be June, because I already have my tickets to see Eddie in concert. He's awesome!

Eddie Izzard, Seriously Humorous...

Gwyneth Paltrow met with long-time friend Madonna at London's
Locanda Locatelli restaurant last night.
Oh, to be a fly on the wall during that meal. Not to be bored to tedium by whatever these two glum gazillionaires were talking about, but just to hear which hair-dresser-deprived ex-pat is ahead in the fake English accent sweepstakes.
If the rumors of marital turmoil are true, Madge and Gwyn could both be complaining about their (allegedly)
crumbling relationships with British boy wonders. Hey, a girls' night out is always fun. But for the sake of sensitive visual imaginations, let's hope Madonna and Gwyneth don't take their mutual commiseration society to the physical level.

Tom Brady poked his head out from girlfriend Gisele Bundchen's West Village apartment yesterday. Did he see his shadow? I hope not, I'm ready for spring.
The Patriots QB may be enjoying the off season with his supermodel bed buddy a little
too much.
Page Six reports that Tom and Gisele were caught acting randy in the wine cellar of swank New York restaurant
Philippe. Ooh-la-la.
Who can blame them, really? Wine makes everybody a little horny.
And, in 'a little something for the ladies' news, Gisele may not be the lone model in this couple soon.
Tom has reportedly been offered a seven figure deal to pose for ads showing that nothing comes between he and his Calvin Klein undies.
We know you don't need the dough, Tom, but posing in a filled out set of tight whites would be such a nice gesture for your female, non-Wheaties-eating fans. Think about it.

Madonna is back casting a grim shadow at her London gym, accompanied by a pair of personal trainers. One for her body; one for her ego.
Despite completely plausible rumors to the contrary, Madonna's seven-year marriage to director Guy Ritchie is not yet history.
Madge's publicist, Liz Rosenberg, blamed Guy's film commitments in London, like shooting a Nike commercial and wrapping his latest remake of the same crime caper, 'RocknRolla,' for his no-shows at his wife's Berlin film festival premiere and Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame induction.
Liz added that 'The family are joyfully back together at home in London. All is well and wonderful in the Ritchie household.'
Something smells well and wonderful fishy, and not just Madonna's Playtex girdle after that workout.
If my husband doesn't come to cheer me on at a 5K, I'm monumentally pissed. Guy blew off his wife's Rock and Freaking Roll Hall of Fame induction. And she's a much bigger bitch than I could ever hope to be.

Actors tend to pursue meaty roles with dogged determination.
The meaty rolls that develop around the midsection when gym duties are neglected? Not so much. But sometimes they pop up anyway.
Welcome to the first installment of Packing Paunch: Celebs Battle the Bulge, a pictorial exploration of famous flab. Today we bring you Arnold Schwarzenegger on the beach, perhaps preparing for a part in
The Tummy-nator.
Sex and the City's Chris Noth brings chunky new meaning to the phrase Mr. Big, and K-Fed's looking well-fed.
Click below to view the cavalcade of celebrity chubbies. It's a truly gut-wrenching experience.
