Sean Penn went to visit his new
bud Brad Pitt last night at the Los Feliz home he shares with Angelina Jolie and the kids and it seems the Oscar-winning actor had a bit of trouble waiting for the gate to open fully and he crashed into the wrought-iron fence at the end of Pitt's private drive!
Our photographers say the actor was driving wildly, as usual, and as the security gate to Pitt's street opened, Penn rushed through, swiping his pick-up truck along a fixed part of the gate on the right. Uh ... Spicoli?
Brad and Sean notoriously butted heads while filming Terrence Malick's
The Tree of Life in 2008. Reports said there was trouble between the two because of Pitt's ex Jennifer Aniston's friendship with Penn (stemming from a short film Jen directed starring Sean's on-again-off-again wife Robin Wright).
So why might these two be hanging out? Perhaps they're hoping to revive
Tree, listed on IMDB as being in post-production but reported as having been shelved by various other sources.
The film features Pitt as the father of a boy whose lost innocence haunts him as he grows into a man played by Penn. It's a highly-conceptual film, governed by a heavy-hand from Malick. The picture was originally set for release last year but a rep for Malick's distributor explained the helmer wanted to spend extra time in the editing room which would push back the release to sometime this year. Reports speculate
Tree may premiere at Cannes in May.
I wonder if Angelina was in on this meeting? ...

She's already conquered the big screen and now Julia Roberts is lending her famous face as the global ambassador for beauty brand Lancome.
“I think I have to stand up straighter and wash my face more,†Roberts joked to
WWD when asked about her new responsibilities.
“It’s kind of like every girl’s dream, really,†Julia said. “To be 42 and have three kids and be a working mom, it’s a great moment to be asked to do this and to be able to do it. I think it says a lot about Lancome and what they stand for.â€Â
The debut of her new campaign (shot by Mario Testino) will coincide with the summer release of her film,
Eat, Pray, Love. But you can catch a glimpse of Julia's famous smile now in the just released

This doesn't come as much of a surprise since we know Tiger Woods isn't a fan of condoms, but yikes! If he got porn star Joslyn James pregnant twice, how many other ladies were there? And is it possible that Tiger has a love child out there somewhere?
Joslyn James has revealed to
Inside Edition that condoms were "never talked about" when she got down and dirty with the golf pro, and the sex was "never protected." Not only that, but the adult film actress now claims that she was pregnant around the same time as Tiger's wife Elin Nordegren!
Joslyn says she suffered a miscarriage around the time Elin gave birth to daughter Sam in June of 2007, and she aborted her second pregnancy when Elin was carrying son Charlie Axel, whom she gave birth to in February of last year.
Joslyn said she never told Tiger about the pregnancies, because she "didn't want to ruin anything." She continued, "Actually, the day I was going to tell him, I had a miscarriage. After I lost the baby I didn't want to talk about it."
So what does she have to say to Tiger's poor wife? "I feel bad for [Elin]," she said. "She didn't deserve this, and she didn't deserve being humiliated."

Britney Spears and boyfriend Jason Trawick had a low-key Valentine's day yesterday at McDonald's. So low-key, in fact, that they didn't even get out of the car!
Brit and Jason hit the drive-thru window of Brangelina's favorite restaurant, where they looked just as happy as if they were at a four star restaurant! Hey, when you're in love, it doesn't matter what you're doing on V-day, as long as you're doing it together, right?

Either Madonna has hired Jesus Luz as her manny or she's gotten back together with the 22-year-old Brazilian stud, because every time we spot them out together in Rio he's either toting around little Mercy or whispering sweet nothings into her ear. At this point, could you believe that the two are just friends? We definitely don't!

Yesterday we spotted a cheerful Nick Jonas spending his Valentine's Day on the green in Burbank, California, and the teen boybander was all smiles as he swung away on the golf course. Maybe we'll see him out at more celeb golf tourneys over the next year or so? Nick's been playing for a while, so we'd love it if he could beat the pants off of someone like oh, Justin Timberlake!
