But not at Mr. Chow - make that Philippe Chow! The R&B songstress dined at the NYC eatery last night, and rather than going with a more summery getup, Ri sported a pair of ripped pants, fringed booties and an ultra low cut top.

That's one of the things we love about Rihanna...her constantly changing sense of fashion is (almost) more interesting than the scandals that have been rocking her personal life!

Yesterday Britney Spears was snapped at Starbucks in Calabasas, and while we were happy to see the pop princess in such a chipper mood, we're wondering what happened to that ring she was sporting the other day! We kinda figured it wasn't an engagement ring, but maybe she wanted to clear things up 100%?

Anyway, later in the day we snapped Brit soaking up some sun on the balcony with her boys...it's amazing how much they've grown!

Aww, we're sure there were a few things Lindsay Lohan wanted for her birthday, but a reunion with Sam was definitely number one on the list! Though the celesbians have been on good terms lately, Sam didn't accompany Lindsay to Vegas over the weekend, and she didn't go out with her on Wednesday night, so we were wondering what was going on between the two!

The ladies grabbed dinner at Cecconi's last night, and afterwards they headed to Villa to continue partying it up. Prior to heading out, Lindsay and Sam were tweeting all sorts of sweet, lovey dovey things back and forth, so we got the feeling Lindsay's special day would be memorable...we're just amazed it was so drama free!

After Villa, several pals came to Lindsay's pad, and after THAT afterparty, it looks like Linds got to spend some quality time with Sam...

Awww! Yesterday photogs caught Jennifer Meyer with her newborn baby boy in Los Angeles, and he's just as darling as his sister Ruby Sweetheart! The family still hasn't released his name, so we're very curious as to what it is!

As we previously reported, there will be a public memorial service held for Michael Jackson at the Staples Center on Tuesday, July 7, where fans can bid their final farewell to the king of pop.

Jackson family spokesman Ken Sunshine has confirmed to the LA Times that there will be 11,000 free tickets distributed for fans wishing to attend the service.

Sunshine didn't have much to say about how the tickets would be distributed, but there will be a registration system, and further details will be released later this morning...

OMG! I canNOT believe Brad Pitt was in our photographer's car!!!!

So when our photogs spotted Brad, with his motorcycle broken down a few blocks away from his Los Feliz home, the paps did what any good sams would do and gave him a ride!

Well, they also did their jobs ... and turned on the camera!

Brad was a nervous wreck -- he was paranoid and rude, demanding that our photog drive faster to get him home quickly. Loosen up, Mr. Pitt! We're just regular people ... you know, those humans you see when you look down from your ivory tower!

This star, he's not "just like us!" Remember "please" and "thank you," Brad???





So here's a funny little sidebar ... Check out what other HUGE celeb got a ride from this VERY SAME photographer a couple years ago ...

Spotted: King of Pop Michael Jackson's eldest son, Prince, hanging around his new home - the Encino family estate...

He looks okay, right? Considering all that's happened. He seems fairly at ease with his new life. Do you think it's better having him and his siblings living here with their grandparents as opposed to mom Debbie Rowe out in the desert?

Of course, it's probably just that top. I actually love that she's not wearing something black or drab!

Why else might LiLo have the blues? For one thing, her on-and-off girlfriend didn't join her for any birthday celebrations! Not in Vegas last weekend or out in LA last night... wonder why? Does this mean they're currently "off" or was Sam just too busy?

Maybe she's just not that into Lindsay anymore!
