Nicole Richie is in for a surprise when she gets back from NYC!
Joel Madden was snapped leaving the Andy Lecompte salon yesterday with a brand new 'do ... and we're not sure how we feel about it, but at least he color coordinated with a pink tee! And hey, we're getting a good view of his tattoos, so no complaints here!
Nicole's new show premiered last night, and Joel tweeted, "
Fashion Star was great tonight. I'm very proud of Nicole. She looked hot. :)" Awww, what a sweetie!

...but we all know that underneath the baggy sweater and boyfriend jeans lies an exquisite size 2 physique!
Jennifer Love Hewitt was snapped on the set of her latest project,
The Client List, and based on what she was wearing, it doesn't appear as though she was ready to film a sex scene. J. Love plays a mom who ends up taking her job as a masseuse in a whole different direction when she begins offering sexual services to her customers, and the 33-year-old actress has received some bad press for her new gig.
Jennifer said of the criticism, "I feel badly that they feel offended, but I respect that people need to say what they need to say. I tried to make a joke on Twitter that I wondered why people were not writing to
Dexter about killing people, or to
Nurse Jackie about taking drugs on the job. Those are big, big television characters audiences love and adore so if there can be a serial killer we all like, I feel like a happy-endings specialist is the least of our worries." She's got a point!

Mischa Barton may not have had any high-paying acting gigs over the past few months, but it looks like she's doing just fine financially!
Mischa and a blonde gal pal were spotted at the bank in Los Angeles yesterday, and after visiting the teller, the actress handed over a wad of hundreds to her friend, who appeared quite distressed. Not only that, but she gave her a very sincere embrace before the ladies left the ATM. Aww, what a great friend!

Although Peter Facinelli and Jennie Garth announced they were ending their marriage of 11 years, both stars want to make it clear that neither of them cheated.
The twosome released the following statement:
“There are rumors out there which are completely untrue and hurtful to our family. We just want to make it very clear – there are no third parties involved."
A few hours after announcing the split, the 38-year-old
Twilight star was seen on his
motorcycle not wearing his wedding ring.
The couple are parents to daughters Luca, 14, Lola, 9 and Fiona, 5.

Kat Von D hit the pavement to go shopping in Beverly Hills on Tuesday, and all we have to say is ... thank goodness!
Although we usually love the tattoo artist's edgy style, we aren't crazy about her patterned leggings, oversize knit shirt, and furry black jacket. After all, it is March in Los Angeles ... lighten up girl!
Jesse James' former fiancee celebrated her 30th birthday last Thursday by taking a break from technology. "Gonna enjoy a full day of silence and meditation tomorrow without texting, tweeting, or e-mailing," the
LA Ink star tweeted of her plans. Ironic much?!
Hopefully Miss Von D picked up some new duds that aren't so drab!

All that dancing does a body GOOD!
Maksim Chmerkovskiy stole The Situation's signature move and flashed us his rock-hard abs on his way to dance rehearsal Tuesday. The sexy Russian wasn't shy about showing off what a lifetime of dancing gets you, and we must say... he puts the Jersey Shore star to shame!
The 32-year-old pro is partnered with Melissa Gilbert on the upcoming season of
Dancing with the Stars, and the duo is already hard at work making sure they perfect their moves and snag this season's mirror ball trophy.
Maks' ex and fellow pro Karina Smirnoff took home the prize last season with her partner J.R Martinez, so this bad boy has something to prove!
Speaking of Miss Smirnoff... reports surfaced today that the sexy Ukranian has been going on secret dates with actor Owen Wilson. We wonder if the
Midnight in Paris star would ever hit the dance floor with his rumored new lady?!

Is Jodie Foster losing her hearing?!
We snapped the Oscar-winning actress running errands in West Hollywood on Tuesday, and we were shocked to see her wearing a hearing aid! The 49-year-old seems a bit young to need an earpiece... we hope nothing bad happened!
It was announced Tuesday the
Panic Room star signed with UTA management agency for directing, but will remain with longtime home ICM for acting. Her last directorial effort,
The Beaver, was panned by critics.... but maybe she didn't listen to the criticism!
