Ben Affleck looked more exhausted than ever jetting from France to Spain to keep promoting his Gone Baby Gone overseas. While he's been spending time abroad, his reps have been working to sort out a media mishap from Ben's interview with Details magazine. Apparently the writer misquoted Ben as saying that he'll leave LA if his movie isn't a success and that his movie is "really f—ing good." We thought it sounded a little odd for Ben to say that he would leave the business, but we're glad that he was able to clear that up. Considering the reviews for Gone Baby Gone are positive, it's nothing he has to worry about anyway.

Ali Larter looked hot as hell in her black sheath dress, black patent bag and nude Loubs around LA yesterday. What can I say, the girl looks bangin'. This season of Heroes has been light on Ali, but judging from last night's episode we can look forward to having more of Nikki/Jessica to come. Season 2 of the show still has a few too many storylines going on for me, but hopefully they'll all come together in some way soon. Until then, Ali's got some important phone calls to make.

Britney Spears had a big smile on her face with her arms full of junk food as she walked around LA yesterday. She must have been excited about today's release of Blackout, but unfortunately the judge's ruling about her kids isn't as happy. The court granted Britney just three monitored visits a week — two afternoons and one overnight with SP and JJ. This is a far cry from the 50/50 custody she was hoping for. She and Kevin were also ordered to figure out a holiday schedule between themselves and Britney was told to have her pool fenced in by Friday. The judge also released some of what the parenting coach had to say.

The coach revealed that Britney missed three of their appointments and when they did get together didn't pay much attention to her kids or arrange her schedule based on the boys having fun. All in all, Britney's visitation rights have been scaled back rather than increased due to her behavior. It sounds like Britney is far away from regaining substantial custody of her boys, but hopefully reading and hearing reports like these will get her on the right track as a mom. Because for now, hearing news like this just makes us sad.

Kate Walsh picked up some peanuts and smokes stopping off to get gas in LA yesterday afternoon. I don't always love Miss Kate, but the red hot shoes are sassy in a good way (and Private Practice is, sigh, growing on me). Maybe I'll rekindle my love for Addison after all, but only if Kate stops talking about herself so much. Moving on, do you love Kate or is she a total bore? Let us know who you love, who you wish there was more of, and who you never want to see again — all you have to do is take this short little survey and tell us what we're doing right (and how to improve). Your input is greatly, greatly appreciated!
