There’s just SO MUCH celeb gossip going around, it’s impossible to keep up with it on. I just don’t know how some folks do it - - although, I know some of them do this celebrity gossip blogging thing full time. So, I thought - once a week, I’d do a round up to kind of bring myself up to speed on all the goings on in celebrity gossip blogging that’s going on out there and share some link love with some of the favs I have in celeb gossiping.

On to the round up for this week - here’s Thirteen Celebrity Gossip Bits (as a part of my (celebrity)Thursday Thirteen fun!):

• Anna Nicole talks about her mother and gives some good reasons why Anna wouldn’t want her mother having anything to do with her baby, Dannielynn, or involved with any decisions about where Anna should be buried. Via Gone Hollywood - OTB
• Is Jennifer Aniston dating a new guy named Mike? I’m Not Obsessed has some of the details
• With everybody and their brother (well, in this case, sister) giving their two cents on the abrupt and mysterious passing of Anna Nicole Smith, the circumstances surrounding her death seem to be getting more complicated. Bonnie Stern, the sister of Anna’s partner, Howard K., claims that she spoke with her brother on the day of Anna’s death and that he was not with Smith when she died - more at A Socialite’s Life
• Sometimes it’s not easy being one of the most famous couples on the planet. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have bailed on Los Angeles and returned to their recently purchased home in the Big Easy and according to a report Brad and Angelina are getting into the spirit of their new hometown, New Orleans. There is one problem, though. As they try to fit in and relax with the every day people the crowds can turn into a mob. - see related photos at Gossip or Truth

• You don’t have to look far to see Beyonce’s cover on the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition - - but THIS is just WRONG!
• Donald Trump must be getting extremely desperate for media attention … he has lowered himself to dipping into Kevin Federline’s bag of tricks and is now using the WWE to drum up publicity presumably for his failing TV show(s) … and it’s sooooooooooo sad - via Pink is the new blog

What is good for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt does not appear to be good for Madonna. Madonna has come under fire from an African human rights group for attempting to seemingly use her fame, wealth and power to fast track the African adoption policies in order to adopt an 18 month old Malwaian boy.

Madonna was described to the biological father, by the Reverand who runs the orphanage, as a “Nice Christian lady” - because the father wanted the child to be placed with a family with christian values.

Anyone beg to differ?
