In a new video, Chris Brown is finally apologizing for the brutal assault on Rihanna, which happened nearly 6 months ago. Though Chris seems genuinely remorseful in the clip, we're kind of wondering what took him so long to own up to his actions...
In the video, the R&B star says:
"Hi, I'm Chris Brown. Since February my attorney has advised me not to speak out, even though since the incident I wanted to publicly express my deepest regret and accept full responsibility. Although I would do some interviews and answer some questions in the future, I felt it was time you heard directly from me that I am sorry. I have tried to live my life in a way that would make those around me proud of me, and until recently, I think I was doing a pretty good job. I wish I had the chance to live those few moments again, but unfortunately I can't. I cannot go into what happened, and most importantly, I'm not going to sit here and make any excuses. I take great pride in me being able to exercise self-control and what I did was inexcusable. I am very sad and very ashamed of what I've done...
"No one is more disappointed than in me than I am. As many of you know, I grew up in a home where there was domestic violence and I saw firsthand what uncontrolled rage could do. I have sought and am continuing to seek help to ensure that what occurred in February can never happen again. As I sit here today, I can tell you that I will do everything in my power to make sure that it never happens again, and I promise that. What I did was unacceptable, 100%. I can only ask and pray that you forgive me, please. I hope that others learn from my mistakes. I intend to live my life so that I am truly worthy of the term 'role model.' Thank you."

Before Beck's not-so-triumphant return to the LA Galaxy, we spotted him and Posh heading to the gym together!
Awww, that's so cute - I didn't even know she worked out! Although now that they're back in LA (albeit temporarily), maybe they're really trying to get into the LA swing of things, you know, like driving around in a hot car, going to Coffee Bean and hitting the gym!

No, she's not 30 yet. Gisele Bundchen turns 29 today.
This woman is positively stunning - she's also the highest paid model in the world and is preggers with Tom Brady's (her hubby) baby. I know, she already has everything and doesn't need any extra birthday wishes. Nevertheless, happy b-day!

No, this isn't a still from an ad for Dolce & Gabbana (after all, she IS under contract with Calvin Klein), but Eva Mendes still looked as gorge as she does on film while frolicking with designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana and her bf in Portofino.

Around 6am this morning, Lindsay Lohan showed up to Samantha Ronson's Hollywood Hills home, and after begging and knocking on the door for several minutes, she was finally let in. Eh, something tells us that if the cameras weren't there, Lindsay might have been waiting out on Sam's doorstep all night!
Anyway, once she was let inside, X17 photogs heard the girls screaming at each other, and they also heard stuff being thrown! In the video above, you can hear Samantha cussing Lindsay out, and X17 photogs tells X17online exclusively:
"As soon as Lindsay was let in the house, her and Samantha began yelling at each other. Lindsay screamed a little bit at first, but then we heard Sam yell at Lindsay to get the f*ck out of her house! She sounded really irritated, and it seems like Lindsay was picking a fight with her over her dinner with Drea [de Matteo] at Nobu last night."
When photogs asked Samantha about Drea, she told us that the actress was just a friend, so it looks like Lindsay was blowing the entire thing out of proportion. Of course, it looks like their fight wasn't TOO bad, because Linds did end up spending the night there, but still! It seems like Sam has just about had it with Lindsay and her jealous ways, so we wouldn't be surprised if this was Lindsay's last sleepover for a while!

Kim Kardashian is back from Africa, and over the weekend we spotted the sexy starlet getting her nails done in Beverly Hills. Kim kept it casual in a dark khaki romper and flip flops, but check out that car! Sure it's her boyfriend's flashy Ferrari F430, but he certainly doesn't seem to have a problem letting her drive it around town...lucky girl!
