German billionaire Adolf Merckle, has committed suicide because of the global financial crisis and his business empire crumbling.

Kate Hudson was interviewed for the February issue of Elle magazine, and in it she opens up about her personal life and career.

Hey, she's hot a new movie - Bride Wars - to whore out!

So, just how important is a good sex life? Pretty important, Kate says. Especially according to her mother, Goldie Hawn.

Kate tells the mag, "People think that you can put your sexual life on hold, but you have to find time for it. Without that relationship, our family is broken. My mom really implanted that in me when I was pregnant."

As for Kate's view on divorce, she doesn't blame it on getting married too young to musician Chris Robinson.

She says sometimes people just grow apart, adding "sometimes maybe age doesn't have anything to do with it. Sometimes it's really just compatibility or where you're going or what you're interested in."

But she adds that they are all on good terms. She says, "Somebody's ego is going to be bruised and hurt, and that pride element can be very destructive. We've made it work. You have to. I think it's inexcusable if you don't, personally. No matter how exhausting it is. Even when people have really nasty breakups, there is no excuse not to make it work for your children. And I think anybody who finds themselves in a situation where it's not working has to look at themselves and really, like, check in."

Spike Lee, who is usually known for making controversy, is now just making complaints.

He claims he's not "rich-rich" saying, "Rich is Spielberg. Lucas. Gates. Steve Jobs. Jay-Z! Bruce Springsteen. I'm not complaining. But that's money. Will Smith. Oprah Winfrey - that's a ton of money. Compared to them, I'm on welfare!"

Oh really? Can welfare afford houses on the Upper East Side and Martha's Vineyard, and private school for the kiddies?

Oh okay, so one time he was spotted with his fam flying economy class…to the Bahamas!

Shaquille O'Neal is in need to sell his old house.

The basketball star with the Superman complex has just re-listed his home for sale. Shaq's been trying to sell his Miami Beach mansion on Star Island for some time now. His original asking price last year was $35 million!

Good luck selling it for that much in this economy!

Shaq originally bought the property back in 2004 for just $18.4 million when the real estate market was doing well.

But it seems we can't all get what we want. And reports show that he's just put his house back on the market for $10 million less.

Apparently, last November he had a prospective buyer going after it for $35 million, but the buyer backed out.

So now, for just $25 million you can buy Shaq's former crib.

A bargain!!!

Pete Wentz is a whole helluvalot paranoid! And the rocker even admits it as he struggles to control his anxiety.

Pete says, "I'm paranoid pretty much all the time. I can take three Xanax and not feel a thing."

Time for something a bit stronger maybe? Though only legal drugs, of course.

He also reveals that he tries not to read about himself online. Guess it doesn't help with the anxiety.

Pete adds, "I was letting the blogs get to me. It's semi-frustrating when your name actually becomes a synonym for douche bag."

And as for any New Years resolutions, he says he's trying to change his way of living, especially now with baby Bronx around.

Says the "douchebag", "I'm working on not swearing around Bronx. I know I have a bit of a bad mouth."

Click here to watch Jordin Sparks duet with Joe Jonas on her hit No Air, from the JBros' very special Tennessee show this past Sunday.

Audience members yesterday at CBS' Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson got a bit of a surprise.

Ferguson told everyone in the audience that during the holidays he got married to his longtime girlfriend, Megan Wallace Cunningham, who's an art dealer.

He's a new U.S. citizen and a new husband!

The 46 year-old said, “The wedding took place in Vermont, where they have legalized gay civil unions, and I married a woman." And referring to his wedding band, he said “It’s not just bling.”

This is Ferguson's third marriage! He also has a 7 year-old son from his second marriage.

So let's hope the third time is a charm.

Ferguson added about his wedding, “But, I am European, so I was both the groom and the maid of honor," he joked referring to the kilt he wore during the ceremony.

The Scottish comedian even said he'd love to get a celebrity couple name, like Brangelina and TomKat, even suggesting "Cragan.

Unfortunately, Ferguson is forgetting that celebrity couples only get nicknames when they marry other celebrities. You need to marry up, as we mention in our new book.

Congrats to the new happy couple!

Queen Latifah will stay on as a $pokeswhore for Jenny Craig.

Because she still has a lot more work left to do????

The singer and actress became a rep for the company last year. And, now, reports are confirming that Latifah will continue her job representing the company through 2009.

Scott Parker, vice president of marketing for Jenny Craig, said "We are proud of Queen Latifah's achievements and are excited to continue the relationship. Queen Latifah embodies the healthy lifestyle principles and character that Jenny Craig stands for and we look forward to another great year."

We guess they didn't feel the same way about Kirstie Alley.

If Jenny Craig wants people to think they can lose weight on their plan, they should stick with celebs like Valerie Bertinelli who have actually lost weight and kept it off.

Here's some happy news that doesn't involve divorce - yet.

Actress Alyssa Milano is getting married.

The 36 year-old's rep has confirmed the news that she is marrying Creative Artists Agency agent David Bugliari.

Not even an athlete????

How tragic!

The happy couple got engaged last month - on December 18th - after a year of dating.

A wedding date has not yet been set.

After dating several Major League pitchers, Milano had said in an interview back in 2007 "I've gotten such shit about my dating choices. Like, every single article … is about how I'm 'the chick that dates athletes… I'd love to just find a good plumber or doctor."

Yea, somehow we doubted she'd go for a plumber.

Congrats to the happy couple, though.
