Rachel Bilson and Thurman Murmen are probably the happiest couple in Hollywood. Okay, so he’s a dog, but still. Bilson’s rocking the dress/boots/tights look while getting buff guys to help her carry some boxes and bags from an office building. Freebies? Whatever the case, she’s adorableness and so is Thurman.

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie got together for lunch upon Paris’s return from China in Beverly Hills. After lunch, they headed to an office building in Los Angeles for a meeting. Isn’t it funny how after all of these really terrible photos of Britney and Lindsay, Nicole and Paris actually look like ladies? Oh, how the mighty have fallen!

The Baby Phat entrepreneur Kimora Lee Simmons is being sued by Macy’s for allegedly charging them too much on her products and refusing to refund them the profit that she made. Which is sort of confusing, because aren’t they her products? Doesn’t she have the right to decide how much she’ll charge for them? Of course, I’m sure there are all kinds of contractual things, but isn’t that Macy’s bad for not catching it at the time of the transaction? I honestly don’t see how this is anything more than a bunch of suits trying to squeeze money out of nothing.

Kevin Federline came in at #7 on Details magazine’s most influential 50 men under 45 issue, which means that either a) men under 45 are all slackers, thus making Federline look better than he actually is or b) he just looks really good in comparison to Britney. Which is highly possible. We have to hand it to the guy, he’s been a model parent by comparison, but influential? I’m not so sure about that one…

Since Brad Pitt jumped ship on the film State of Play, Russell Crowe has been asked to step in to take over the part. Last week, Pitt dropped out of the film because he had issues with the script which couldn’t be reworked because of the writer’s strike. For some reason, I have a feeling it’s either going to take a lot of ass kissing or a really huge paycheck for them to get Mr. Crowe. Can you imagine how awkward that discussion is? “Um, so, Russell…we know we didn’t really want you for the part, but since our megastar is gone, will you just fill in?” Hmmmm…egos don’t like that.

Maggie Q is set to star alongside gorgeous Hugh Jackson in the X-Men prequel Wolverine. I’m totally excited about this for two reasons: Asian girls rock, and Maggie Q happens to come from my hometown, so even though I’ve never really seen any of her movies I’m totally proud of her! Besides, she’s a hottie.

Lindsay Lohan is one of those crazy people who went shopping on Black Friday with the hordes of other people looking for good deals. Here she is with her mom and sister. Her sister doesn’t seem to have inherited the addiction to self tanner and bleach, and for this reason looking at her is a welcome reprieve from looking at Lindsay’s orange glow. Remember when Lindsay used to look so fresh faced? Ah, the memories…

Adrien Brody was selected by In Style as the “Man of Style” for 2007. Since I haven’t really seen Adrien Brody in anything but like, cargo pants or a suit, I can’t really judge — since those were in movies. Ooh, but I did like him in those pink boxers in The Darjeeling Limited. I don’t know what it is about him, but I do find his sad eyes and crooked nose to be completely charming.

Keira Knightley and James McAvoy will appear in Vanity Fair this December to promote their new movie Atonement, directed by Joe Wright and based on the book by Ian McEwan. If McAvoy’s name doesn’t sound familiar and he doesn’t look all that recognizable in the picture, don’t fret; you’ll remember him as LeFroy in Becoming Jane, in which he starred opposite Anne Hathaway. He’s cute in that somewhat rumpled, ruddy cheeked, British way that Hugh Grant once was, but with less…sleaze ball-ish-ness. Keira, in any case, is lovely as well.

Heidi Klum and Seal took their uber adorable kids to visit Santa in Los Angeles this weekend. The fashionable family jumped the queue and got to visit with Santa right away. You really have to wonder, though, what kids of a supermodel and a pop star could ask for…

Cindy Crawford celebrated Thanksgiving on Maui with her husband and two children (Presley, 8, and Kaya, 6). Not only does the former supermodel look amazing for her 41-years but she’s fit and toned as well! Maybe this is what people look like when they don’t have to eat cookies in order to develop a nice layer of pudge to stay warm through the winter. At least, that’s my reasoning.

Shia Lebeouf was named one of Entertainment Weekly’s 25 Entertainers of the Year. In his interview in the magazine, he says that the problem with this instant celebrity is that you don’t really know who wants to be your friend. “I’m tired of talking about myself,” he says. Which is sort of funny, because he was really only in one movie that people (over the age of ten) have seen, right? Hmm…I like the kid, but I feel like you’ve got to have at least a few more things under your belt before you become an “entertainer of the year.”

Oh, how I miss Sarah Jessica Parker, and I know you ladies are with me. Not to fear, though: SJP was spotted wearing the pictured pink Diane von Furstenberg frock (above) while filming scenes for the upcoming Sex and the City movie!

Parker and her familia fled the Big Apple for Thanksgiving. Five-year-old James Wilkie appears to be growing into the perfect combination of SJP and hubby Matthew Broderick.

Lindsay Lohan spent Thanksgiving with her mom, brother, and snowboarder boyfriend, Riley Giles in New York City. The paparazzi went wild because they haven’t had anything exciting to photograph Lindsay for over the past few months as she’s been sobering up. The only think they’ve been able to come up with was her “I’m a 50-year-old burnout housewife” look of bad fake tan + really awful bleached hair. I guess as a celeb you have to figure out some way to stay in the loop, though, huh?

Jonathan Rhys Meyers attended his mother’s funeral in Ireland on Friday. His mother died on Tuesday after complications with a short illness. Meyers attended the funeral with his girlfriend, Reena Hammer. Friend Colin Farrell also attended to give his condolences and his support to Meyers.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to the Meyers family.

Penelope Cruz will be on the cover of the December 2007 issue of Vogue. In the issue, Cruz shares a glimpse of her life in Madrid with readers and wears enormous, fantastical dresses, and looks generally fabulous. Of course, on off days she just wears regular couture; it’s only on weekends that she lounges around in the “big gowns.”

Paris Hilton visited Shanghai for MTV’s Style Awards this past week, where she posed a lot with stuffed animals, in tight dresses, and while walking through the city. According to the Associated Press:

“Shanghai looks like the future!” Hilton said in a news conference at the Hyatt on the waterfront, one of the newest landmarks in a city teeming with new skyscrapers.

It’s funny, because while Shanghai looks like the future, news about Hilton is beginning to look like the past…

Boy George was indicted last week under charges of false imprisonment by a 28-year-old male escort, who claims that the Karma Chameleon tied him to a bed and battered him with sex toys. Georgie is out on bail until his February court date, and made no comment upon leaving the courtroom.

Bet you hadn’t thought about Boy George in awhile, huh? Maybe he’s pulling a Britney and acting badly in order to get attention. Did you know that he’s become a DJ since fizzling out as a pop star? It’s true! It’s too bad that he’s also become a pervert.

Meg Ryan and her daughter Daisy were spotted leaving Down-to-Earth market yesterday in Pearl City, Hawaii. It looks like the Ryans spent their Thanksgiving sunbathing and being generally adorable. Or at least Daisy did.

Nicole Richie spent Thanksgiving Day serving food to homeless people in Hollywood. Apparently, Richie was worried that being around so many people wearing unfashionable clothing would blind her, so she and the entire rest of her soup kitchen entourage chose to wear sunglasses. Nice thing to do none the less.
