Thought we would join in the Thursday Thirteen fun this week - with a Diva Twist. Instead of 13 things directly about Me - I have thirteen celebrity facts I’ve run across this week and found to be interesting:

1. Whitney Houston has filed for divorce from her husband, Bobby Brown. Like we didn’t see this coming… like … a decade ago? Crack is whack.. and so is Bobby, apparently.
2. And so.. unto us a child is born . . . and unfortunately for the world, it’s another Spederline. Yep - Britney Spears and Kevin Federline welcome their new baby boy into the world. And there was much rejoicing. yaay.
3. Speaking of Spederlines, today is Sean Preston’s birthday
4. Eminem is releasing a new album
5. Lindsey Lohan seems to enjoy flashing her cootchie to the public. She really enjoys it - - she’s done it Twice! NOT WORK SAFE - - or brain safe, for that matter - don’t say I didn’t warn you!
6. The death of Anna Nicole Smith’s son has been deemed unnatural.
7. But! Congrats to Anna Nicole on the birth of her new baby girl
8. Seems Hulk Hogan’s son made this mess out of his dad’s Lamborghini - - Don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t want to be that kid when Hulk found out!
9. Sean Penn, has raised the ire of local canadian politicians after allowing his anti-Bush sentiments to get the better of him, and lighting up during a press conference.
10. J.K. Rowling challenges airport security when they try to make her check her handwritten manuscript of the latest Harry Potter book (either it was made entirely out of liquid or they just wanted to know if she killed off Harry or not).
11. The mother of a missing child committed suicide one day after giving an interview to CNN’s Nancy Grace. “Nancy Grace and the others, they just bashed her to the end,” Duckett’s grandfather Bill Eubank said Tuesday. “She wasn’t one anyone ever would have thought of to do something like this. She and that baby just loved each other, couldn’t get away from each other. She wouldn’t hurt a bug.”
12. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have FINALLY set a wedding date. You can all relax now.
13. Us Magazine reports: Celebrity Moms are not human

Rapper Ice Cube is no fan of Oprah. He joins rappers Ludacris and 50 (fitty) Cent in their beef with the talk show hostess because she never seems to invite rappers on her show. “Maybe she’s got something against rappers”, says Ice Cube.

Gee. Ya think?

Last month, 50 complained that Winfrey rarely invites rappers on her talk show: “I think she caters to older white women.” Ludacris, whose real name is Chris Bridges, told GQ magazine that the media mogul was “unfair” to him during a show he appeared on last October with co- stars from best-picture Oscar winner “Crash.”

Earlier this month, Winfrey defended herself in a surprise appearance on New York City-based radio station Power 105.1.

“I listen to some hip-hop,” she told DJ Ed Lover. “You know, I’ve been accused of not liking hip-hop and that’s just not true. I got a little 50 (Cent) on my iPod. I really do. Love ‘In Da Club.’ … Love that, and you know, love Jay-Z, love Kanye (West), love Mary J. (Blige).”

The O is down with rap, yo.
