Is Lindsay finally getting back to work? She's been doing free
photo shoots lately, but maybe now she'll get paid!
Linds is the new face of German designer Philipp Plein's spring campaign.
Lindsay, who has formerly modeled for Miu Miu campaigns, replaces
Mischa Barton as the celeb face of the line. Says the press release:
“Lindsay is a beautiful, highly acclaimed actress and model. We will be able to create unique images: Refined and luxurious, but also full of sensuality."
Luxury, indeed -- Plein's jackets, for example, run for $2-$5,000 each.

The
first part of
ET's interview with Taylor Armstrong aired Tuesday night, and the
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star detailed his alleged abuse. She explained that photos of her with a black eye were the result of Russell punching her, and said she required surgery.
Taylor said Russell had abused her 20 or so times during their marriage, but despite the abuse, his suicide has been traumatic.
In the second part of the interview, airing Wednesday night, Taylor describes finding Russell's body (he hanged himself in mid-August), saying:

"I'm sure a lot of people won't understand this … but I asked the emergency workers if I could go in and hug him before they took him away, but they wouldn't let me. I just felt like I needed to see him one last time, but they wouldn't let me."
The Bravo star also explains how she has reacted since. She says:
"I'm now wearing his wedding ring and mine together. Right now I'm still doing anything I can to figure out how to get close to him. ... I still have the last shirt he wore before the night of, and sometimes I sit in my closet with it ..."

Sarah Michelle Gellar looks amazing to us, but apparently she doesn't see the same things we do.
The
Ringer star told
Health magazine that she doesn't always feel as confident as she appears. In the October issue, Gellar says:
"I’m a female! I totally have body dysmorphic disorder. I think most women do. A makeup artist friend once said, 'I don’t think I’ve ever seen you look in a mirror.' I’m surrounded by them all the time -- you sit in hair and makeup -- so I guess I just have this mechanism where I tune it out. So every once in a while, I’ll look and I’ll be like, 'Wait, that’s what I look like?'"
Sarah continues,
"I just have to remember that I’m human, and I’m a mom. Being a parent changes the vanity at least a little bit. It has to. Your priorities are different."
Body dysmorphia is a psychological issue where a person becomes excessively concerned and obsessed about a perceived physical defect. While she may not have the actual disease per say, she does go on to say that she's growing more comfortable in her skin, thanks in part to having been pregnant with her daughter Charlotte, now 2. She told the mag:
"I’m not as critical as I used to be about my body. And it’s also funny, too, how women perceive women, and how men perceive women. Because a woman will look at the skinniest person and think that’s the most attractive, and a man will not think that’s attractive at all!"
We think you look gorg just the way you are, Sarah!

Bravo
Bravo confirmed over the weekend that
Real Housewives of New York's Jill Zarin, Cindy Barshop, Alex McCord and Kelly Bensimon had been fired from the show.
Rumors had it that the network wanted the show to have more glitz and less bickering.
Now,
The New York Daily News is reporting who will replace the four, joining LuAnn de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan and Ramona Singer.
According to the paper, author/news producer Carole Radziwill, fashion designer Heather Thomson and philanthropist Aviva Drescher are the newest housewives.
Radziwill, who used to work for ABC, will be the show's
"single girl" with famous roots. She lost her husband to cancer in 1999; only a month earlier, her close friends, Carolyn-Bessette Kennedy and John F. Kennedy Jr., were killed in a plane crash. Her mother, Lee, is the younger sister of
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.
Drescher has three children with her banker husband, making her the
"Wall Street wife." Thomson's shapewear business has made her wealthy -- she's a married mom of two.
Bravo would not confirm the new cast, saying only, "We haven't made any announcements regarding new ladies at this time."

Today
Today will air an interview with Brad Pitt on Thursday, and the star apparently yet again addresses his ex,
Jennifer Aniston.
Pitt came under fire for quotes in
Parade that implied that Jen was a boring wife, then
backtracked. Now, he's clarifying yet
again. He tells Matt Lauer:
" ... my point was, the best thing I'd done as a father is be sure that my kids have a good mother. That's all I was, or am, trying to say. It has no reference to the past. And I think it's a shame that I can't say something nice about Angie without Jen being drug in. You know, she doesn't deserve it."
Hmm. Which "she" are you referring to, Brad?
Pitt continued, "I don't want them to say anything bad like that about Jen. She's a dear friend of mine."
Then stop talking about her!
