SUPREMES RE-DEUX
After a whirlwind year of skimpy gold outfits, stiletto heels, and a lot of staccato singing, the gals of Destiny's Child are ready to take a break. All the ladies have said that they would like to pursue other creative avenues. In our humble opinion, it was only a matter of time before Miss Thang, Beyonce Knowles, decided that she wanted to pull a Diana Ross on the other two. Ahh, there's nothing like a good girl-group break up.

WHO"S YOUR DADDY????
Here it is, this week's follow up on our report of Liz Hurley's oh so fashionable pregnancy. This week, instead of Liz denying the news of her bun n' the oven to pesky British Tabloids, it seems as if the poppa to be, Steven Bing, is questioning if the baby is truly his! He has shamelessly asked for a paternity test once the babe is born...apparently he is aware of Liz's wild ways. Now the two are slugging it out via statements from their publicists. And we always thought the British were refined....
Ba da Bing!
