Yesterday we photographed Leonardo DiCaprio skimming over a script before participating in Hope for Haiti Now: A Global Benefit for Earthquake Relief from the Los Angeles broadcast spot. Leo smoked a cigar as he studied the pages, and we're still blown away by the generosity he (along with the other million dollar givers like George Clooney, Gisele Bundchen and Sandra Bullock) showed last night when it came time to donate their dough.

Conan O'Brien hosted his final episode of The Tonight Show last night, and rather than continuing to bash NBC, he thanked his fans and gave a rather serious monologue. I honestly thought he was going to get teary a few minutes in!

Madonna was one of the big headliners at Hope for Haiti Now: A Global Benefit for Earthquake Relief last night, and we caught the material girl arriving at Kaufman Studios in New York City for the telethon. What did you guys think of her rendition of "Like A Prayer" last night?

The other day we spotted Ashley Tisdale returning to her Toluca Lake home, and it appears as though she borrowed her boyfriend's workout clothes for her trip to Coffee Bean!

For the second day in a row, we spotted Katie Holmes behind the wheel of her dark blue Mercedes convertible. Obviously, she didn't have the top down, but we're still curious about what prompted her to ditch her driver and start making solo road trips around town. Up until this past week, we had NEVER seen her in the driver's seat before...

WFT?! X17online.com exposed the National Enquirer's "first photo of Tiger Woods in sex rehab" as a fake today when we published the first photo of the FAKE Tiger Woods in sex rehab (click here for that story) -- a guy wearing the same clothes, same shoes, same watch as the guy in their grainy, obscured photo from days before.
So what's the deal? Well the Enquirer would like us all to believe the following (taken from their email blast to the media this afternoon):
In a laughable effort to cover up Tiger Woods’ stay in a sexual addiction clinic, a Tiger lookalike was trotted out in front of a group of paparazzi at the Gentle Path rehab center Friday in Hattiesburg, Miss.
The bizarre and ridiculous ruse was a clear attempt to make it look like The ENQUIRER’s exclusive photo of Tiger in rehab is not him.
And even though one photo agency Web site fell for it immediately, the differences between the two Tigers are obvious to even a casual observer.
Tiger’s stand-in was paraded in front of a swarm of photographers and he was wearing EXACTLY the same clothing as the real Tiger when we photographed him days ago.
Are the differences really that obvious? Looks like the same guy to me! And would Tiger really roam around outside the rehab center knowing that his location had already been reported four days earlier in the international news and that reporters and photographers would swarm the Gentle Path center in Hattiesburg, Mississippi?
And would Tiger and his people AND the employees of Gentle Path really go to such extreme lengths to cover-up that Tiger is there at the center? Seems pretty unprofessional to me. I'd say if Tiger's peeps are willing to do something like that, then they should have spent more time and effort covering up the booty-load of women with whom he cheated on his wife!
There may be another reason the tabloid wants to cover their mistake ... we're told by numerous sources they sold the images of "Tiger" to the media for $10,000 a pop and that now, shows like The Today Show and others will refuse to pay.
So what do YOU make of all this? The majority of voters on the Huffington Post believe the National Enquirer pic is a fake Tiger. Let us know what YOU think ...

We caught Reese Witherspoon leaving her spinning class in Brentwood today, and yet again, she's got that post-workout glow! Well, as much of a glow as you can get in 50 degree rainy weather...
Reese has always been in great shape, but it seems like after her split from Jake Gyllenhaal, she's been taking the personal fitness thing to a whole different level. Is she doing it to get a hot revenge bod, or do you think it's like therapy for her? Both maybe?
