Katherine relaxed with her fiance Josh Kelley after what could only have been a very stressful week on (and off) the set of Grey's. Just as things were starting to die down from the whole Isaiah Washington thing, lots more drama has popped up in its place. Apparently Katherine has dropped out of her contract negotiations with the show over salary (PR negotiating tactic much?). A source says she's upset that the producer doesn't value her as much as her other co-stars. To top it off there's lots more tension on the set due to the fallout of Kate Walsh getting her own show. Sounds like a lot of egos clashing these days. Here's more:

“The rest of the cast seemed instantly resentful of [Walsh],” a source told Star. “They each thought they’d be the one chosen to get their own show, and now they’re giving Kate the cold shoulder.”

The source adds that “Grey’s” star Ellen Pompeo “seemed particularly peeved because she felt that, as the star, she should have been consulted.”

The show has definitely changed since it first started but I guess that is to be expected of any hit show combined with an ensemble cast. I hate to see original cast members leave a show, but the way this group is making headlines there is no doubt that the entire cast won't last for many more years. Well, I guess we'll just have to watch them fade into post-hit doctor drama obscurity like happened with so much of the original ER cast.

Aw, it looks like someone took herself and her pooch for a grooming! Both Jessica and Daisy's hair had a particularly sheeny shine while out on a drive in LA this week. Jess has been looking great these days, and it's certainly not only about her excellent new hair color. Her boyfriend John Mayer is out and proud about his relationship with Jess (ooor at least he's not totally denying it) and he's ready to defend her to anyone who's gonna give him flack. As he told TimeOut New York, "I'm having the best time of my life, so if the names don't make sense to people, that's so small to me." Considering the negative press Jess has endured the past few years, it must be nice to have someone standing up for her for a change.

With Angelina in Africa and Brad hard at work on The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Grandma Pitt is getting some serious quality time with the kids. Yesterday she entertained Maddox and Shiloh with a carriage ride around the French Quarter (seriously I am picturing her waving like a Queen while smiling to the cameras - she's so loving it). Thanks to Jane we've seen more of Shiloh in the past week than we have in the past few months! Hopefully she'll stick around for awhile so we can get more fabulous photos.

Well, never let it be said that Victoria Beckham doesn't know how to make a splash. This time all she had to do was dye her hair and chop it off a bit to cause a media and paparazzi frenzy. To think, she doesn't even live here yet. At least she's an old hand at dealing with the photogs, and usually manages to keep herself calm, collected, and sporting her signature pout for every single shot. Hope she's getting used to the LA 'razzi though, they seem to be the feistiest in the world.

Paris got in trouble once again yesterday by the LA police. While on her way around town last night she was pulled over in her Bentley for speeding without her headlights on. Turns out Paris was driving with a suspended license too. Poor Paris - her $200K car was towed away and impounded. Elliot of course has a simple excuse for Paris not turning on her lights and driving without a license. TMZ reports:

Paris' publicist, Elliot Mintz, tells TMZ the heiress was exiting the parking structure which "is brightly lit so she had not noticed that her headlights were not activated." As she drove a few blocks, she was confronted by other bright lights -- those of the L.A. County Sheriff's Department.

Deputies tell TMZ Paris was speeding down Sunset Blvd. without headlights. She was pulled over and deputies discovered she was driving with a suspended license. According to Mintz, "If that was the case, she was not aware of it."

It must really not be that fun being Elliot. The guy works overtime making excuses for not so smart behavior. More pics of Paris not looking too upset, but really orange so read more

Always the talented actress, super mom and level-headed celebrity, Jennifer Garner may be a perfect role model for Violet. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for everything in Ben's past. It's no secret he has been through rehab, and kudos to Ben for cleaning up and becoming the sexy father, successful actor and businessman he is today. It's really too bad, though, that someone is spilling on his crazy past, including a "steamy night with a hot blonde." The former Hollywood Madam turned author is writing a tell all book about her clients and their sexcapades including nights with Marky Mark, Bruce Willis and more. Let's hope this book is out of press by the time Violet is roaming the bookstores herself.
