Hilary Duff worked a black-and-white striped looked at pilates class on Tuesday -- an ensemble reminiscent of those classic jailhouse uniforms.
But Hil didn't mind the resemblance -- in fact, nothing could get her down -- even the news that Twilight actress Lindsay Pulsipher would be replacing her in the upcoming Bonnie and Clyde movie -- a role that would have really let her play a criminal! (Hil had to drop out due to her pregnancy.)

Beyoncé is pretty much having the best pregnancy ever.
The mom-to-be isn't talking pregnancy cravings or morning sickness ... she's talking about shopping!
B and her mom Tina Knowles unveiled the newest House of Deréon line at London Fashion Week, and the singer told CNN that she's wearing clothes from it even while pregnant.
"What I'm wearing today is part of the collection and it's not supposed to be [maternity wear], but it actually is really good for maternity ... we do have some things that I am still trying to rock."
The line was created over six months ago, well before Beyoncé found out she was preggers. Now that she is, B is positively glowing. "Actually, I am having so much fun," she admitted. "It has been the most fun time now that it has been announced. It was really difficult to conceal, but now that I can be proud and excited about it I'm having so much fun shopping."

Journey guitarist Neal Schon and Michaele Salahi have taken over headlines this week, ever since the former Real Housewives of D.C. star was reported as kidnapped by her now estranged husband Tareq.
In reality, she ran off with Neal, and Tareq has been actively slamming the two in the media since. Now, Neal and Michaele are saying their piece in an interview with The Daily Beast.
Michaele says she was "going crazy" with Tareq -- and without Neal. Neal says of their romance:
“It’s like a fairy tale. It is, it really is. I’m very happy, very happy after waiting for her for 15 years. Now I want to get beyond all this media hype that Tareq has put out there. It’s really quite embarrassing."
Neal, 57, and Michaele, 46, dated in the late '90s -- she was dating Tareq (left, in a Bravo photo) at the same time. Michaele says she chose Tareq because she saw a more stable future with him than with a rock star.
But she and Neal began communicating again in secret a few months ago. Then, Neal sent Tareq and Michaele tickets to a Journey concert in Virginia over Labor Day weekend.
While backstage, Tareq took photos of the group. Then, when he left the room, Michaele confessed her love for Neal. Tareq has filed for divorce.

Who knew???
Charlie Sheen had friends over (including roasters Jeffrey Ross and Jon Lovitz) to his house on Monday night to watch both the Two And A Half Men premiere and his Comedy Central Roast, and he basically live Tweeted the experience.
That's not all that surprising for Charlie, but we were shocked by who he Tweeted to!
Charlie Tweeted at Miley Cyrus, saying:
"Thank you Miles!! Wish you were here tonight!! xo c RT @MileyCyrus #sheenroast HAHAHAHA"
"Miles"? Really? Why are these two on a nickname basis??
Miley, though, is a bit of a Charlie traitor. She Tweeted, "@aplusk on 2.5 men tonight! Hahaha so friggen funny! ;)"
UPDATE: In other Charlie news, the numbers are in, and his Comedy Central Roast was the highest-rated ever in the history of the franchise, with 6.4 million viewers. Of course, the premiere of Two And A Half Men got 27.7 million ... but was that only because viewers wanted to see how Charlie's character would be killed off? Stay tuned!

Angela Simmons, daughter of Run DMC star and business mogul Rev Run, hit the beach in Miami wearing a skimpy bikini. Nice head scarf!
The curvaceous reality star was celebrating her 24th birthday by soaking in the sun.
While in Miami, Simmons spent time with ex beau and rapper Bow Wow. Although the two were once reportedly an item, Bow Wow has made it clear that he is not attached to anyone right now ... including Angela.
He recently said, "Man, I’m single as a George Washington dollar bill man. Straight up. It’s all about my work and putting in the grind and the effort. If I was in a relationship and I wouldn’t deny my sh**."

Will we finally hear more music from Robert Pattinson? It looks like it!
The British actor, 25, plans on hitting the studio to record his own album before promoting for Breaking Dawn begins, a source told Us Weekly. "Rob has been kicking a few original songs around for a long time, but his schedule didn't allow it," the insider said.
Music, not acting, is actually Rob's first love, and he's been able to marry the two quite nicely. The avid guitar player, who held jam sessions in his hotel room while filming the vampire flicks, recorded "Never Think" and the bonus track "Let Me Sign" for the original Twilight soundtrack. He also played a young singer/songwriter going through an existential crisis in the 2008 indie flick How To Be.
Check out the actor's emotional, live version of the song "I Was Broken" below.

Nicole Scherzinger is officially awesome.
The new X Factor judge went on Conan last night in a very tight leopard print dress that left very little to the imagination ... especially when it came to her cleavage.
Conan O'Brien tries to concentrate during the interview, but his eyes begin to drift downwards when she starts talking about why all the ladies love Simon Cowell. So she says, "Focus, Conan," and directs him back up to her face. "I'm trying to speak here," she laughs. "Serious talk."
How does Conan respond? "It's so [unfair]. I'm sorry! ... Good god! Finally let's be real here for a second. You didn't think I was gonna look down there?" And then he proceeds to mock-motorboat her.
Brilliant.
See the whole interview -- including her impressively dead-on Britney Spears impression -- above.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey's Teresa Giudice and her husband, Joe, filed for bankruptcy in June 2010. Now, Joe is withdrawing the filing.
According to New Jersey's Newark Star-Ledger, creditors were starting to get suspicious of Joe's assets and income -- wondering if he deserved to have his debt wiped clean. Joe and Teresa claimed to be $11 million in debt.
But, a new season of the Bravo show is currently airing, showing Joe and Teresa still living in their multi-million dollar home, still taking luxurious vacations (above) and still shopping.
Teresa has not yet abandoned her bankruptcy case, though she has been taking in income from bestselling cookbooks and, of course, the show.
