Although Lautner wasn't flying solo, the stud didn't exactly have a hot date of Bella Swan proportions -- the cutie took his dad. Awwww...

Heidi Montag chatted with Ryan Secrest today about the final season of
The Hills and her relationship with Spencer Pratt, and she also revealed some new dirt on the slew of plastic surgery she had last fall.
We already knew Heidi had a second boob and nose job (along with work on her chin, cheeks, eyebrows and rear end, among other places) and the reality starlet has added a "back scoop" to the list as well. So what is a "back scoop"? Heidi says, "I actually didn't know. I might be the first one to try it. It carves out your back a little bit." Heidi added that she had her waist cinched on both sides as well, but all the operations have taken a serious toll on her personal life. Heidi says she's so fragile she's "weird about hugging people," and she can't even jog anymore!
Heidi was also chatty about her future with Spencer, telling Ryan that even though they've been through a lot, "everything's better now." So what's next for these two? Heidi says they may move "to Costa Rica or somewhere in Latin America. I think we're gonna go there and figure it out." Heidi and Spencer exploring the jungle? Sounds like a perfect reality show to us!

Immediately after Tiger Woods' press conference at Augusta National, on of Woods' more infamous mistresses, adult film star Joslyn James, held her own press conference with her attorney Gloria Allred by her side. She told the media she is still expecting an apology from her alleged former lover, but has failed to receive one.
Allred, who described Tiger as "flawed, deceptive and irresponsible," said that she and Joslyn will not be attending The Masters Tournament, as had previously been announced. Instead, she says Joslyn will "move on with her life" and will "consider returning to her life as an adult film star."
During the presser, Gloria also made sure to repeat the following text that Tiger allegedly wrote to Joslyn:
"You please me like no one ever has or ever will." In addition, Gloria revealed that Joslyn "has some information about some medication [Tiger allegedly took during their alleged trysts]" but that "she's not going to be commenting on that."
Joslyn did say that 10 days after Tiger's daughter Sam was born, she hooked up with the golf star. She's now offering to sit down with Elin to discuss the details of her affair with Tiger.
The adult film star ended the press conference saying: "I will always have feelings for him."

Spice Girl and DWTS' finalist Mel B. is apparently being considered to join Simon Cowell as a judge on his X Factor show when it hits the US later this year.
The Daily Mail reports that Scary went for a night out with X Factor execs here in LA to discuss her future with the show.
"The top level executives at the production company, TalkbackThames, took Mel B out for the evening and it was certainly to gauge her thoughts on the show – and to see if she would be right for a role," a source tells the paper.
The current configuration has Cowell joined by Cheryl Cole and Louis Walsh, as well as Dannii Minogue, who may be out of the show due to the fact that she's preggers and supposed to deliver this summer, right when auditions begin.
But even though Mel proved her reality prowess on another Brit import, Dancing With the Stars, she's hardly a shoo-in.
"Mel is extremely temperamental – she won’t listen to anyone, so there could be fireworks on the panel," the source said.
Not that that's a bad thing!

Michael Lohan seems to be getting
really serious about getting his daughter Lindsay into rehab -- whether she wants to or not!
Michael tells X17online he tried to get key people in Lindsay's life to confront her over Easter weekend, but people's holiday schedules interrupted his efforts. Still, it feels like something may happen this week ...
Michael tells X17online exclusively:
"Since I found out what a horrible way Lindsay is in, and after finding out how drastic it has become, I immediately contacted the necessary people in Lindsay's circle, including her attorney as well as an attorney of my own. It is nobody's business when or how it will happen. Hopefully Lindsay, her attorney and the 'people' who influence her, will be on board. If not, the process will continue without them. I promise that!"
In fact, Lohan blames Lindsay's lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley for not caring enough about his client's best interests:
"Shawn Chapman Holly tells me one thing and does and says another. Meanwhile she says and admits privately how bad Lindsay is in but she does nothing. Instead, she says she has a legal responsibility toward Lindsay. So does this mean that she should watch Lindsay die. And is keeping her out of jail as important as keeping her alive."
Holley defended herself in a statement to X17online today, responding to Michael's allegations:
"Michael Lohan's conduct with respect to his daughter and to the media speaks for itself. I represent Miss Lohan and will continue to protect her personal and legal interests to the very best of my ability."
You think Lindsay will be receptive to her father's efforts?

Tiger Woods held his third press conference today since the Thanksgiving Day accident that sparked a sex scandal, and in addition to apologizing once again to his fans, he also apologized to his fellow Masters' players and thanked them for the warm reception he's received at Augusta.
"Coming in today, I didn’t know what to expect, in regarding to reception.  The encouragement I got, it blew me away," Tiger said. "The people here over the years have been extremely respecting, but today was something that touched my heart."
He went on to apologize to his fellow players for enduring the massive amount of attention he's brought with him to the tournament. "I know that the players over the past few months have been bombarded by all of you and the public as well.  But I want to tell the players that they can be left alone and focus on the Masters," said Woods. "I apologize for all of them for having to endure what they’ve had to endure."
Tiger also said that he "missed" the game and the players while he's been taking time off to "look at myself in a light that I didn't want to look at myself," and of course, spending time with his family.
"What I’ve done over the past years has been just terrible to my family," he began. "It’s the pain and damage that I’ve caused.  My wife, my mom, my wife’s family....my kids...I’ll have to explain all this to them.  I have to take full responsibility, I did it."
On taking the sleep aid Ambien:
"Yeah, I did take that.  I took most of the Ambien when my dad was sick. When my dad died, it was a tough time in my life."
On his stint in rehab:
"Just prior to Christmas, I made the decision to enter rehab.  Having spent Christmas day with my family was incredible, and then having to go to rehab from there. I missed my son’s first birthday, that hurt a lot, I vowed to never miss a birthday again. I was in there for 45 day and it was to take a hard look at myself. I've come out a much better person for it.  I’ll still continue with my treatment." However, Tiger declined to reveal exactly what that treatment was for, instead saying "It's personal, thank you."
On the reckless way he was living his life:
"I was rationalizing, I was denying...in total denial at time.  I lied to myself, I lied to others, just because I won golf tournaments, didn’t mean a thing."
In fact, Tiger said he was at such a low point in February that "I had no intentions of playing golf at all. After hitting some balls since then, 'the itch came back.'"
Tiger also revealed that his wife, Elin, will NOT be joining him at the tourney which begins this Thursday in Augusta.
