Angelina Jolie has written a new article for Time magazine, calling for more action to end the crisis in Darfur.On Friday, members of the United Nations Security Council will learn the results of the International Criminal Court's Darfur investigation.

"The evidence the prosecutor has presented is clear and compelling," Jolie writes, pointing out that "millions of people have been displaced" and "hundreds of thousands have been killed."Jolie recalls her first trip to Chad to visit refugees from Darfur in 2004.

Since then, she sadly notes, "nothing changed."Despite the Bush administration labeling the Darfur situation as "genocide," Jolie says the words have not "compelled us to intervene."Says the actress (who turned 36 Thursday): "Darfur has almost disappeared from the news, and experts now call it a 'low intensity" conflict.' But the intensity of the crisis has not lessened for those who are struggling to survive."


"More than 250,000 people from Darfur have lived destitute lives in refugee camps in Chad for six years now," says the mother of six. "Camps with more than two million internally displaced persons inside Darfur are even worse. Thirty percent of those displaced are school-age children. Girls leaving the camps are raped; boys leaving the camps are killed. They want an education; they want to go back to their villages, to their land; they want peace. But they also want justice."

I've been hearing loud whispers (an oxymoron, I realize) that costars Megan Fox and Shia LaBeouf are dating. Okay, maybe Megan and Shia are not dating, but it's very possible that they're hooking up offscreen.
What about Megan's tumultuous romance with Brian Austin Green?
Recently, the tabloids went wild when Megan's car was seen parked outside of
Just days after her ex Jim Carrey was spotted canoodling with his new brunette, Jenny McCarthy and her smokin' bikini bod hit the beach with her new buff man candy Jason Toohey in Miami.


Maybe Jenny McCarthy is just out to spite Jim Carrey with a new love of her own, but I must say the sexy mom looks better now than when she was first a Playmate. Cool!
Hollywood celebrity Angelina Jolie has been turned into a comic book heroine.


The graphic novel called Female Force: Angelina Jolie, written by Brent Sprecher, tells the story of the sexy mom's rise to fame, her experiences raising six children and serving as a goodwill ambassador for the UN, reports imdb.com.

"I learned a great deal about her struggles and triumphs as an award-winning actress, mother and humanitarian," said Sprecher.

The book will hit shelves in January 2011.
Jessica Alba will play a prostitute in her upcoming movie “The Killer Inside Me”.

The sexy mom has some very steamy bed scenes with Casey Affleck who plays a bored small-town deputy sheriff but things took a scary turn when he turns into a ruthless, sociopathic murderer.

Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson portray a prostitute and Lou’s girlfriend respectively.
“The Killer Inside Me” gets limited release in the US in June, 2010.

I have a soft spot for thrillers, and with Jessica Alba starring in it, I guess the flick is worth a watch.
Speaking to Access Hollywood about Gervais' bruising and controversial evening hosting the Globes, Lopez said that Gervais was gutsy -- but she was more so.

"He's very gutsy, it takes a lot of guts to get up there and make the comments he made and go for that type of comedy," she said. "I'm sure in his mind it was all in good fun. But in the room, being in the room it was like, eek... Then, when I go backstage to present, I'm backstage with Alec [Baldwin], we're about to walk out, and Ricky shows up. I say, 'Listen! I will kill you, you understand, I am from New York, my husband fights, we both fight, we will beat you up after the show... with a couple of bleep bleeps in there."

Gervais assured Lopez that she'd like the joke, and in the end, she didn't mind his joke, or being made fun of in general.

Overall, she thinks he did an alright job, but perhaps went a little bit below the belt. Not that Gervais cares -- he's not returning to host next year, anyway.

The story broke last week, but Kim didn't hear about it until Wednesday, when she was taping a segment for 'Today' about her new reality series, 'Kourtney and Kim Take New York.

The pregnancy rate at Frayser High is 26 percent, although the Memphis City Schools Superintendent claims it has swelled in part because pregnant students are drawn to the school because it has programs in place to help them.

Whether or not these girls were influenced by 'Teen Mom,' the stars of the MTV hit show make upwards of $60,000 per season - enough for a boob job in one instance.

Kim recalls her high school days, when she was still crying over her early-blooming body.
