Choice quote from the interview: "This is in God's hands. I believe things happen for a reason. This is to make Nick a better person. In my belief, this is to make John a better person."

What an asshole.

Is Mel Gibson under the impression that counseling Britney Spears is some kind of mission from Jesus to make up for being a loony bigot? Gibson and Spears met up last night for a two and a half hour "ongoing guidance session" at the Beverly Hills Cigar Club. Ugh, I hate the smell of cigars and can only smoke one when I'm half in the bag! And no, that doesn't mean all the time!

Britney and Mel have been regular buddies since dining together last March. Britney even vacationed with Mel and his wife Robin at their home in Costa Rica last month. They used to live in the same gated community.

I don't get the vibe that they're tagging each other, though. I think Mel is a wackjob who has taken it upon himself to rehabilitate the crazy hillbilly and shower her in the blood of the lamb. She needs to stick with the meds, and the focusing on work and letting Dad run things. The last thing she needs is religious fanaticism. Look what happened to Stephen Baldwin!

Britney showed up for the date with her hair up in a white headband and capris. She was accompanied by her assistant Brett and a bodyguard. Mel arrived alone, bearing a man purse. It probably contained God's plan for her.

"Britney looked like a doll with bright red lipstick," said a photographer, who described her as "very quiet" and "with a serious look on her face as she walked in to the Havana Club."

The Beverly Hill Cigar club is frequented by celebs like Ben Affleck, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone and Danny DeVito. Britney left around 9:30 and Mel stayed until 11. No word on whether she smoked a cigar or not. She might have rolled a Slim Jim blunt and smoked that.

Welcome to the day after J. Harvey's birthday edition of Unqualified. I'm one year older without a drug problem and I received an air conditioner to combat Boston's brutal heat this week. I'd say I'm ahead of the game. I am now free to pursue my drinking in a climate-controlled environment.

You're in luck this week, because I received such a hot letter. I literally had to share it with other people to get their take on it. Seriously. I consulted the boyfriend, my younger brother, and even a wise and wonderful friend of Ri-Ri Harvey. I almost brought it up to the girl at Starbucks's but she probably would have thought I was working out some kind of fantasy and called the police. This female letter writer is engaged to a guy who can't bang her without his stuffed rabbit on the bed. Intrigued? I am. Keep reading...

It was a tense night for celebrity fans of the Los Angeles Lakers. Facing the Boston Celtics in Game 3, the Lakers managed to nab a win of 87-81. I'm not much of a sports person myself at least not until celebrities are involved, so clearly that's the only reason I'm writing this.

The crowd at the Staples Center was positively star-studded, with staunch Lakers supporters in the crowd as Jack Nicholson and Magic Johnson. There were, of course, a lot of pretty people including Hilary Duff and her hockey-playing boyfriend Mike Comrie. Hugh Hefner showed up with his plastic surgery posse and, of course, my girl Kendra Wilkinson.

Fergie and Kanye West obliged photographers with a cute little pose and David Beckham looked as tense as he would be if the L.A. Galaxy were playing. Also, Vanessa Minnillo is making the most amazing face in reaction to something that Hilary Duff is telling her and you'll be very upset if you don't take a look at it after the jump.

Hmm, I don't think I see Eva...

See this blur? It's the picture of a woman who is itching to be a mother. I can't tell if she's just dancing, passing out, or trying to conceive right there on the street. You might remember that Naomi recently underwent surgery so that she can now have children. I can only imagine what kind of "surgery" that was. You know she had a blackmarket uterus installed -- one that doesn't have teeth.

But until she can get preggo, the supermodel is going to continue to party like a supermodel. She and boyfriend Marcus Elias had a festive night out in Capri, Italy. She's going to be such a lovely mother -- one who I suspect has a low tolerance for wire hangers.

So, The Happening premiere happened and the stars from the film turned out onto the red carpet. Zooey Deschanel looks adorable, as usual, and sufficiently terrified of whatever it is that she's supposed to be scared of in the movie.

Early chatter about the film isn't great, but that didn't stop star Mark Wahlberg from cheerfully talking on the red carpet about the baby boy he and girlfriend Rhea Durham are expecting. Both parents are excited but Mark's 4-year-old daughter Ella is not quite as thrilled.

"My daughter was extremely disappointed when she found out that we were having a boy -- she wanted a little sister." Let's hope The Happening isn't like finding out your getting a brother, when it's clearly not what you ordered.

Seriously. This woman appears to be experiencing a mild case of pregnancy. When leaving the gym yesterday with husband Keith Urban in Nashville, Tennessee, Nicole Kidman looked as if she were just barely pregnant, even though she is about 8 months along.

The Golden Compass actress is widely believed to be in her last trimester, with her baby due to be delivered next month. The couple have found out the gender of their unborn baby, but are keeping it under wraps for the time being. According to Keith, "I'm glad we found out though, because it brought it home, you know what I'm saying."

I still can't believe this is the extent of Nicole's swelling. I'm starting to think she's pregnant with half a bagel.

In the new movie The Love Guru, Justin Timberlake plays a supporting role as L.A. Kings goalie Jacques Grande. Critics are saying that Justin stole the show, partly because he wore just a speedo in one scene.

Justin told Extra that there was only one thing he didn't like about the speedo.

"This may be TMI but I was constantly digging out those wedgies!" he said.

But did the lack of clothing intimidate Justin? Of course not. He's the one who brought it upon himself to bring sexy back.

"I work out pretty diligently," Justin said. "At the time I was on tour, I worked on this film for ten days...I was on tour...so I was in shape."

Mike Meyers seemed pleased with his co-star's attire.

"He's not an uncomfortable person. This is a guy who was golfing yesterday on a pro course and got under 100," he said. "The Speedo is getting some very good reactions from people. Some people are very happy about the Speedo!"

Sounds like Mike himself might just be one of those happy people!
