We were gambling away in Vegas the weekend of the pop tart's wedding and were the first to hear the buzz surrounding her saunter down the isle (Vegas works fast man). Everyone seems to have an opinion about the joke that went too far and one of our personal favorites is the cover of this week's People screaming, "Is She Over the Edge?"

And now rumors are flying that she's delaying the release her 2nd single from In the Zone due to the fallout from her naughty nuptials. Baby girl should have been spending more time with windbag Madonna at the Kabbalah centre instead of bowing to the porcelain god after too many Malibu & Coke's and Marlboro Ultra Lights.

PS: In a recent Friday ForPlay we forgot to mention that Lara Flynn Boyle's shopping spree took place at one of our favorite L.A. boutique's, Jack Henry.

Boo-Hoo Britney

As you can see from the photo at left, Mark Wahlberg has shirked his duties as daddy and is giving Miss Jessica Alba the Dirk Diggler treatment. Over the holiday Marky Mark allegedly spent some time with his new baby and ex-fiance Rhea Dunham and then split for some old fashioned carousing in South Beach. Mark & Jessica were spotted pawing each other all over Miami during the holiday week.

In other news, we hear that Chris Klein and sweet Katie Holmes got engaged over New Year's.

Forget the last drawn-out episodes of Sex and the City (except for Miranda & Steve), bring on Jersey's finest businessmen and the acrylic nailed wives that love/hate them. We are so jacked to see that The Soprano's is coming back in March with Steve Buscemi added to the cast as Tony's cousin, Tony Blundetto. Simply mob-tastic!
