What a year for the Britster!

And, she's totally ready for the spotlight again, so says her long time manager, Larry Rudolph.

"She's definitely ready," he opines. "She loves to work. She's a very strong person. Everybody goes through setbacks in their lives. [But] every day, I see her getting happier and stronger."

Though her musical comeback is important, Larry says his money-making machine has made it clear that motherhood comes first.

He told a reporter, "Her kids and balancing her life with her kids is an incredible priority – the No. 1 priority in terms of how I operate with her."

We're happy that she's pulling it together!

Washington Mutual just announced they are slashing 1,600 jobs.

Bah humbug!

ABC is making BIG changes to their lineup!

According to reports, three ABC shows have been canceled - or are almost dead.

Dirty Sexy Money, Pushing Daisies, AND Eli Stone will all be ending this season. 99%.

At the moment, the network is not commenting, but multiple sources have confirmed the news.

However, Daisies creator Bryan Fuller says, "It's all true. I'm so very proud of this show and grateful for everyone's hard work in bringing it to life. We would love to continue telling this season's arcs in a comic book format, just to tie up all the loose strings — and believe me, there are plenty. That way we can tell a stand alone movie story that doesn't have all the baggage from the second season stories — and those bags are packed!"

Some changes will also be made mid-season to the current schedule.

For example, their spin-off show Private Practice will be moved to 10pm on Thursdays following Grey's Anatomy beginning mid-December. An obvious attempt to up the ratings.

And starting January, Scrubs will join the network's Tuesday lineup and Life on Mars will be moved to Wednesdays.

Thankfully they didn't get rid of Ugly Better and Desperate Housewives. Or should they have?

Reese Witherspoon was spotted Thursday looking MAH-VA-LOUS the Los Angeles premier of her holiday movie.

On Thursday, Alaska's huntress governor and the GOP's former VP nominee, Sarah Palin, visited one of her state's turkey farms to do a ceremonial, Thanksgiving-themed 'pardoning' of one of the birds.

A humane act from a woman who shoots wolves from a helicopter?

We thought we were dreaming!

And, of course, since Sexy Sarah was involved there was a ton of press there to capture all the moments on the turkey farm.

But, after the pardon ceremony, things took a turn for the crazy!

Clueless Sarah decided to talk shop with the reporters in front of some turkey slaughter contraption.

This is not a joke. Turkey heads get chopped off in the background as S.S. Palin talks government stuff!!!!

Sexy's reality is crazier than made up Hollywood shiz!

Our file of golden Palin moments is bulging!

Sluttyienna Miller is on a roll!

Her lawyers have strong-armed paparazzi agency Big Pictures to settle the invasion of privacy and harassment law suit brought against them by Slut Slut.

On Friday, the pap firm agreed to fork over $79K to Slutty AND not to photograph her at her home or make any effort to pursue her for pictures.

The sluttyest one of all's lawyer said the settlement and Big Pictures agreement not to pursue Miller 'could have important repercussions for other paparazzi and well-known figures.'

Boo!

He went on to say that media reports claimed that it was the first time that a celebrity had successfully used against photographers anti-harassment legislation designed to curtail the actions of animal rights protesters and stalkers.

But, it doesn't look like Slutty will be 'safe' from American paps, right?

The pap craziness that followed her homewrecking affair with oil heir Getty has made Slutty some major cash.

She's already banked $84K from the cases she settled with the UK papers Daily Star, News of the World and The Sun.

Will Getty want a cut?

Their homance was the only reason why anyone really cared about her anyway!

She ain't no dumb bitch!

It's really no surprise to learn that Angelina Jolie carefully crafts her image through photo and journalistic deals with magazines.

And while other celebrities may employ a team of publicists to handle their images, Jolie works alone with her manager, Geyer Kosinski, relying on her intelligence, instinct, and luck.

Sometimes she asks Brad what he thinks, but mostly he's seen and not heard.

She knows her selling power, partly because she's the one who invented her profitable image, and so she can bargain with magazines.

Anonymous insiders of People magazine's $14 million deal with Angie concerning photos of her new twins with Brad say that in addition to the photos, the couple asked to review an "editorial plan." The magazine was required to refrain from publishing anything negative, use of the nickname "Brangelina" (They hate it), and to highlight their philanthropic work.

The resulting publication was the mag's best selling in 7 years.

Score!

Angelina, who was once known for making out with her brother, wearing blood around her neck, and confessing to pre-red carpet limo shenanigans, has now reigned in her image as a sparkling goddess of maternity and philanthropy, and it's all thanks to careful media manipulation.

The key to her image-shaping success is shifting focus during times of PR crisis, as when she became romantically involved with Jennifer Aniston's husband during production of Mr. & Mrs. Smith. In order to deflect casting as a homewrecker, Angelina flew out to Pakistan as the second coming of Jesus, bringing attention to the needs of people there, and making everyone go, "Awww!"

Her control has backfired a couple times though, as when the government of Namibia refused to grant visas to journalists without permission from Bragenlina while they were there for Shiloh's birth. That made them mad.

In another instance, journalists covering the premiere of A Mighty Heart had to sign an agreement that "the interview may only be used to promote the picture. In no event may interviewer or media outlet be enh1d to run all or any portion of the interview in connection with any other story" and "the interview will not be used in a manner that is disparaging, demeaning or derogatory to Ms. Jolie."

Angie later said her lawyer was trying to "protect her."

Regardless, everything else seems to be working, cause people like her more than ever these days, while Jenn cries into her Friends DVDs.

People denies everything, of course, and that's cause Angelina's holding one of Maddox's knives to their backs.

She paid us to say that, by the way.

Just kidding!

BRANGELINA!!!
