So much for their "separation!"
Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are still spending time together, according to her friend Lauren Stone, who allegedly saw the pair at Heidi's house!
She reveals:
“I saw Spencer, he seems really normal. He actually showed us his new project he’s working on. He showed us a clip of the movie. I thought it was really funny. I think it’s about a lifeguard that’s trying to get girls. And the lifeguard is kinda of like a douche-bag type of guy, not too cool."
Lauren also said "she didn't even know they were going through a divorce" after hanging out with the two of them!
“I’m actually not sure what’s going on. She didn’t really go into details about anything but the way she was acting it just seemed like she was really happy and free and just living life. She’s telling us how she’s gardening a lot and writing music and she seems to be really happy.”
Well good for them?
But we wonder what they're plotting next!

Oh goodness, Duffster! We hope this isn't true!
You look LOVELY!
In Touch is reporting that the actress is so determinedto look her best at her upcoming wedding to gazillionaire Mike Comrie that she's gotten the Heidi Montag special!
A source says:
"Hilary is obsessed with looking her best on her wedding day. She recently got her boobs done and has been getting Botox and fillers to make her face look as good as possible. She is determined to work out six days a week, and she brings Mike along so they can motivate each other. She's lost 10 pounds already!"
Sweetheart, you are 22 years old! You do NOT need botox!
Don't you want to be able to SMILE on the happiest day of your life?
However, we HAVE seen quite a few pictures of her at the gym, so we really hope that she's not going overboard!
We like our Duffster just as she is!
Thoughts??

Well, unfortunately for the rest of us, she won't have to deal with it much longer!
Star Magazine is reporting that Lindsay Lohan has quite a few demands in jail!
A released inmate revealed:
"The other day Lindsay was freaking out because she wanted another blanket. She kept yelling out, 'Hello! I asked for a blanket like two hours ago! I'm getting sick!' It went on for hours."
A visitor to the jail also experienced La Loca's diva demands, saying:
"My sister told me that Lindsay was complaining about not having any bottled water to drink, and saying that unpurified water makes her sick. But this isn't some fancy hotel. If inmates want water, they drink good old Los Angeles tap water.
"Then she was demanding someone bring her a fan. She said she was going to pass out. Of course she didn't get it — or the water."
LOLs!
You're not at the Chateau Marmont, Linds!
What are you thinking?

She's one to talk!
Michelle Rodriguez isn't impressed with Hollywood and the current obsession with remakes.
She explains:
“I think the industry needs to wake up and stop doing remakes because I’m kind of falling asleep. They need to start doing movies about something other than comic books and stuff that come out in the Eighties. We’ve exploited that already.
"Let’s do something new. It’s sleepy time in Hollywood right now and we need to find something else.”
They shouldn't do any more Fast & Furious sequels either!
Ha!

Brace yourself to read about douchebaginess of epic proportions.
Dog the Racist Bounty Hunter is getting sued by Hoang Nguyen, who has a new arrest warrant out for him. Excuse us for a moment, while we take a shower before continuing to write about this.
Nguyen is suing Dog for damaging his reputation. Apparently, on his show, Dog and his crew said Nguyen shot at them first. Awesome grounds for a lawsuit! WTG Nguyen!
WTG also for your new arrest warrant, Nguyen, for failing to file proof of completion of a public service program after a 2008 charge of driving with a suspended license.
Nguyen: You’ve been arrested more than 12 times. Dog: You’re a racist douchebag.
Is there a way this can work out poorly for both of you? We really hope so.
