Miley Cyrus was unusually shy while leaving the recording studio Friday night in Hollywood. The pop sensation covered her face with her favorite accessory -- a heart-shaped Chanel bag -- as she was escorted to her car. She resisted the urge to partake in a twerking contest with the photographers on the scene.
Although oddly fully clothed, she was wearing one of her predictably bizarre frocks yesterday. The singer donned a kimono/pajama-inspired extra-long button-down shirt and matching tights with colorful patterns. She paired the outfit with Nike slippers and wore her hair in Gwen Stefani-esque twisted pigtails.
Whether a conscious effort to cover up after her raunchy, half-naked MTV Video Music Awards performance opposite Robin Thicke, a fashion statement, or immune to Los Angeles' scorching heat, the outfit is definitely a step up from her usually racy numbers.

Lamar Odom has been spotted for the first time since his early Friday morning
D.U.I. arrest. The NBA star returned to his Calabasas mansion in a cab on Saturday after posting $15,000 bail. He must miss his driver's licence already.
Odom was pulled over for driving erratically and below the speed limit on Los Angeles' 101 Freeway. The athlete was then arrested in Van Nuys after failing a sobriety test. Once in custody, he refused to take a drug test, thereby giving up his driving privilege for a year. He also had a
minor car accident less than a week before on Saturday.
The NBA player's world seems to be rapidly crashing down. The newly free agent is reportedly suffering from an ongoing drug addiction. His marriage with Khloe Kardashian is also allegedly on the rocks. The fact that the athlete has returned to his marital home is a positive sign though. His reality star wife has also received a D.U.I. so she should be able to empathize with her hubby. But those cheating rumors are a whole other ball game.

Trouble just follows Justin Bieber wherever he goes.
The Biebs was attacked at a Toronto nightclub on Saturday morning,
TMZ reports.
A male club-goer charged the pop star, grabbed his shirt, and tied to tackle him at approximately 3 a.m. today. A security guard rushed to the scene and pulled the rowdy partier off Justin. He was taken down before he had a chance to pull Justin to the ground.
The singer allegedly tried to defend himself by kicking the assailant. Authorities weren't contacted. The attacker was kicked out of he club and Justin and his posse left immediately afterward.
You'd think Canadians would value the national treasure ...

Well, orange is the new black!
Reese Witherspoon looked brighter than a summer's day while heading to a business meeting in Los Angeles on Friday. The chic star wore a bright orange dress with a navy blue pattern to beat the Brentwood heat. She pulled her hair back in a ponytail and styled the look with black accessories: pointy-toed, studded flats, sunglasses, a satchel, and a watch. Reese has been looking especially stylish lately.
Having recently returned from a trip to the Bahamas, the Oscar-winner appears to be more relaxed than ever. She needed all the rest and relaxation she could get before starting the promotional tour for her latest film, the crime drama
Devil's Knot. Reese plays a grieving mother opposite her
Walk the Line costar, Joaquin Phoenix. The movie also stars Sean Penn, Owen Wilson, Benicio Del Toro, and Martin Short so it's sure to be a must-watch.
We can't wait to see what she wears to the film's red carpet premiere next week at the Toronto Film Festival.

It's almost impossible to top the ridiculous antics Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt engaged in last season on
Celebrity Big Brother. Courtney Stodden may have done the unthinkable on the British reality show's new season.
Courtney belted out the American National Anthem while bawling on Friday's episode. Granted, the performance was part of a challenge to sing and sob at the same time, but it was atrocious, nonetheless.
The reality star wore her best black string bikini underneath a sheer sweater for the occasion. In true patriotic fashion, she read the lyrics off a sheet of paper while waving an American flag. Forgetting the words was the least of her troubles; Court sounded like a whimpering puppy that needed to be put out of its mystery.
We wonder if Roseanne Barr gave her any tips.

To say that Jennifer Lopez is in high demand would be an understatement.
J.Lo was paid a whopping $17.5 million to return to the
American Idol judging panel,
MailOnline reports.
"It's a major coup for her to land a huge payday like that and I believe she is thrilled with that number," a source told MailOnline. "It's a lot more than the $15 [million] Britney Spears was paid to do
The X Factor."
This is a huge spike from the $12 million she received for her first season on
Idol in 2011. She was given a $3 million raise the following year and reportedly asked for another cool $3 million to come back for a third season. The
Idol producers allegedly didn't budge so she walked away from the reality competition. Mariah Carey, who, along with Nicki Minaj, replaced Jennifer on the show, was reportedly paid $18 million for her single season judging stint.
Jennifer will join new judge Harry Connick Jr. and fellow alum (and Mariah-Nicki catfight moderator) Keith Urban for Season 13, which premiers in January.

And the hits keep on coming!
Lamar Odom had a car accident less than a week before his Friday
D.U.I. arrest, the
Los Angeles Times reports.
L.A. Times reporter Adolfo Flores was in the third car of a chain-reaction when Odom's white Mercedes hit a vehicle, which then rear-ended Flores, last Saturday off the 101 Freeway in L.A. The minor crash was not reported to authorities.
Flores said Odom initially hesitated to give him his insurance information. "It doesn't even look that bad," he allegedly said. After when he finally handed it over, the NBA star then didn't want to take his form back. Flores tried to return Odom's insurance doc three times before he finally accepted it. "I need it to drive," he said.
Flores' car and the car in the middle of the accident had bumper damage. Odom's car, on the other hand, had damage near its driver's headlight. But, Flores said it was unclear if the damage was sustained from that particular accident.
Odom was pulled over for a DUI on the same freeway early Friday morning. The athlete failed a sobriety test and once arrested, refused to take a drug test. The athlete's driving privileges have been revoked for a year.

From Kris Jenner's talk show getting
cancelled to
Lamar Odom's D.U.I. arrest early on Friday morning, it's been quite a week for the Kardashians!
On Friday X17 photographers snapped Kris arriving at the family's Calabasas office, and despite all the drama over the last few days, she maintained her very best poker face. Kris has had several
business meetings over the course of the week (not to mention an appointment with the
family attorney and
divorce lawyer Laura Wasser), and though she hasn't exactly been chatty with photogs, she has kept her cool. That's pretty impressive, if you ask us!
And while the family has yet to issue a statement about Lamar being arrested (or whether he's going to rehab...or whether Khloe is filing for divorce), she posted yet another
sexy selfie, so even if she's stressed to the max, she seems to want to let her fans know she's doing just fine. She posted this pic along with the message, "Smile and no one will notice."
