The body of Whitney Houston arrived in a gold hearse to a funeral parlor in her home state of New Jersey, where a memorial service will be held for around 18,000 people at Newark's Prudential Center, at the end of the week.

Houston's family is reportedly holding a wake on Thursday and funeral on Friday for the 48-year-old pop star, who was found dead in her hotel room at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Saturday, just hours before she was set to make an appearance at a pre-Grammy gala.

While it has been suspected that Houston's death was a result of a drug overdose, authorities are not ruling out natural causes. Los Angeles assistant chief coroner Ed Winter confirmed that the prescription bottles in her room were not "alarming" or "out of the ordinary," but toxicology reports will not be available for several weeks.

Newark's Whigham Funeral Home is handling the singer's arrangements, which is the same funeral home that organized the 2003 memorial of Houston's father, John Houston.

While the girls are away, the Beckham boys will play!

Dedicated dad David Beckham was in a playful mood on Monday night, as he took his sons, Brooklyn and Romeo to watch Cruz practice karate in Hollywood, while wife Victoria is still tied up at New York Fashion Week.

The Galaxy soccer star just returned from a quick trip to NYC, where he sat front row, with baby Harper in tow, at the debut of his wife's autumn/winter 2012-13 collection, which was held at the New York Public Library.

Looks like Beckham was happy to leave the fashion world behind to be back in LA with his boys!

Uh oh! We can't really tell if this is real or faux!

After hitting the gym this morning, Kim Kardashian got all glammed up for a meeting in Hollywood, and as if the sky high heels and full face of makeup weren't enough, the reality TV starlet decided to add a fur-collared sweater to the mix.

After all the drama with PETA last year, we can't imagine Kim K. would REALLY wear a dead animal again, but wouldn't she also be pushing it by wearing a fake piece?

Gwen Stefani took a break from her recording sessions with No Doubt to hit up the Santa Monica Pier with her picture perfect family.

The 42-year-old "Just A Girl" singer walked hand in hand with her rocker hubby Gavin Rossdale while sons Kingston and Zuma enjoyed their suckers. Kingston even showed us his blue tongue!

Although Gwen looks gorgeous from head to toe, not sure how practical her boots are for a trip to the pier. Regardless, the fashion designer knows how to leave a lasting impression when it comes to her clothing choices. Work it!

Kristin Cavallari was snapped arriving at New York's JFK airport last night, and we still can't believe she's pregnant! Not just because there's no visible signs of a bump, but she's so young!

The 25-year-old former Hills hottie attended the Rachel Roy fashion show this morning, and it sounds like she's having a blast on the east coast. "The Dream hotel is amazing," she tweeted. "U should stay here when ur in NYC."

She's not rocking maternity clothes just yet, but we're sure KC will impress us with her wardrobe once she starts showing...

Joe Jonas is a hottie no matter what, but it looks like he may have had a bad run-in with a set of clippers!

The middle JoBro was snapped in New York City over the weekend, and we're not sure who advised him to crop his locks this way, but he doesn't seem to mind! Joe has dropped by a handful of Fashion Week events over the past few days, including the Hudson Jeans bash and the Simon Spurr Fall 2012 fashion show at Milk Studios last night. Hmm, think he's in it for the clothes or the models?

Jolie was doing press for In the Land of Blood and Honey at the Berlin International Film Festival, and according to Access Hollywood, she told reporters, “I did write something on Afghanistan. Nobody’s seen it yet. Brad hasn’t seen it. It’s hidden. So I don’t know how very good it is, but it’s been a pleasure to write.”

In the Land of Blood and Honey earned a nomination Best Foreign Language Film at this year's Golden Globes, so is it possible that Jolie has found her niche with wartime dramas?
