Does this look like a lawyer to you?

Heath Ledger: His family plans on giving his Golden Globe trophy to daughter Matilda. Rightfully so!

Slumdog Millionaire: One of the reasons ABC is considering bringing the hit show back. Been there, done that? We’re kind of over it…

Vanessa Hudgens: Now that HSM is long over (sniff sniff), Hudgens is trying to piggyback on to another series…Twilight. What ever happened to ‘breaking free’?

Hilary Duff: Signed a development deal with NBC back in November and now actually has something to show for it. Barely Legal will take on a whole new meaning!

NBC: Creating a panel of “leading women” (which apparently includes Tori Spelling) to help advertisers better market to females.

Mariska Hargitay: Word broke late yesterday that the Law & Order star has a “partially collapsed lung”…and it won’t impact her TV commitments one bit. Surprising. Collapsed lung sounds serious, no?

Til’ Death: Hasn’t died. Who knew?! Better question: who cares?

The Sopranos: 10-year anniversary. Again, who knew?! We feel old. (And the most important Soprano, James Gandolfini, of all has a new gig: Broadway!)

Shaquille O’Neal: Mentioned on his Twitter feed that he’s getting a doctorate in “human resource development.” One more time, all together now: WHO KNEW?!

TMZ: You know something needs to be changed in the television industry when TMZ TV is the only show that had 52 weeks of original programming in 2008.

SIZZLED OUT: Charlotte Church

STILL SIZZLING: We’re headed to LA tomorrow to tape an appearance on this game show. Good thing we know the alphabet!

Was this foreshadowing?

Ashlee Simpson: Gave birth last night to a boy named Bronx Mowgli. We have a feeling dad Pete Wentz picked the name. At least he wasn’t kidding earlier this week when he said fatherhood was “imminent.”

PEOPLE: That Sexiest Man Alive issue will feature scratch and sniff. Even WE are creeped out.

Reese Witherspoon: Now we know for sure not to believe any tabloid that says Reese and Jake are headed to the altar. The star herself says she’s not ready to remarry now, if ever.

Jennifer Aniston: Admits she’s computer illiterate and thinks Facebook is like “dancing with the devil.” Sure she wasn’t talking about Angelina?

Jennifer Aniston Pt. 2: Loves watching FRIENDS repeats. Ego trip? She also says she watches some of the episodes and doesn’t actually remember doing them or what they were about. We never understand celebs when they say that! We remember every little detail of every little episode and we didn’t even make the damn things! What’s your excuse?

ABC: The ax has fallen on not one, not two but THREE shows: Pushing Daisies, Eli Stone and Dirty Sexy Money. Is there anything left?!

CW: Did some cancellations of its own but none that we really care about. Just the out-sourced shows that aired for a millisecond on Sunday nights. In are repeats…of Jericho? Weird. That show was prematurely canceled itself!

Gossip Girl: To be honest, we don’t really understand this. According to Ausiello, Connor Paolo (Eric) declined an offer to become a series regular yet will still stay on the show and somehow this is better for his career. Whatevs.

SNL: People are speculating why Justin and Beyonce’s Single Ladies sketch isn’t available on-line. Some say it’s JT’s fault because he wanted to be paid residuals. Others say it’s just a “music clearance issue.” How long til somebody caves?

SNL Pt. 2: Did last week’s show seem especially ‘gay’ to you? Headwriter Seth Meyers was asked that very same question.

Heroes: The creator is blaming the show’s decline on DVR. And now a TIME writer is taking him to task for not accepting responsibility.

Obama: Shows are seizing on the opportunity to name-drop the president-elect. It’s actually kinda cool and makes them seem more real, we think.

Obama Pt. 2: The Washington Post takes an interesting look on whether it really matters if O has in fact quit smoking.

Roger Ebert: We love self-deprecation! Ebert shows how good he is at it–and how he can be poignant at the same time–when he looks back on how his appearance has changed over the years.

Rosie O’Donnell: We LOVE her response to Babs’ insults on yesterday’s View. Classic Ro.

Twitter: Now being used by Shaquille O’Neal. Does that mean it’s time for us to stop?

SIZZLED OUT: Winona Ryder

STILL SIZZLING: This guy is the latest to be caught on camera with his pants down. But what will the queen say?!
