Moneybags socialite Paris Hilton has slammed rumours that she's pregnant.

The blogosphere has been buzzing with speculation that Hilton, 27, is in the pudding club after she was photographed this week sporting what many claim to be a "baby bump".

Snaps of celebutante Hilton and her beau Benji Madden out and about in Hollywood on Wednesday night, sent tongues wagging because

Cancel the stork

But you can hold off on congratulating the shameless narcissist, her rep insists that the pregnancy rumours are "completely false".

So there's no bun in the oven at this stage, but I wouldn't rule it out as a distinct possibility in the near future.

Remember, Hilton has made no secret of her desire to reproduce.

Since BFF Nicole Richie popped one out in January, Hilton says she's been feeling clucky.

"I do want a baby, pretty soon," she said in a recent interview. "Not yet because I'm so busy, but next year."

Brit Brit's cameo

So Britney Spears is

making a cameo

in a new video by the Pussycat Dolls.

The beleaguered singer, 26, filmed her scenes for the

When I Grow Up

on Wednesday at the Warner Bros lot in Burbank, California...while the Pussies filmed their bit in Hollywood.

That's right; there was zero interaction between them.

"It was carefully planned out," a set source tells Usmagazine.com.

"In the scene shot, Britney is driving in a car. They all wave at each other as they are passing in traffic - that is it.

The source adds: "It is genius and you will love it!"

"Of course, Britney looks hot and blonde."

I'm still getting over the idea that Spears once

performed with the Pussies

as part of a special performance for her older brother Bryan's birthday.

That's just dirty and wrong. I mean, the Dolls' performances are notoriously kinky and enough to make the most liberal of minds blush. Poor bloke.

Out of the mouths of babes...

My favourite jazz troll Amy Winehouse has been

selling crazy

at her husband Blake Civil-Fielder's pre-trial hearings this week.

On Wednesday Wino gave her official verdict on proceedings, and proclaimed that she found the pretrial arguments a bit "like Disneyland".

Wino and her hubby then proceeded to make a mockery of things by smiling at each other across the courtroom, winking and blowing kisses back and forth.

And hour and a half in Wino had had enough, so she lifted her carcass and whispered a sweet "f*** you!" to all and sundry before hoofing it out of the courtroom.

Quote of the day

"I have the libido of a teenage boy. I'd rather have sex all the time than leave the house." - Megan Fox knows good sex, and isn't afraid to boast about it.

and ponder: who in their right mind would want to be famous?

Here's some random video footage of Lindsay Lohan being hunted by a pack of lens lizards.

Note the bit where a pap tries to hand Li Lo a flower, and he eventually stuffs it through a gap in her car window. Grumpy Li Lo tosses the flower to the ground, car moves over it, cue shot of squished flower and one photographer's broken heart.

Pure poetry.

Solo Spice

hooking up with Janet Jackson

in an attempt to resurrect her solo career.

Scary's initial stab at launching a solo career ended in tears as her last single failed to make it into the top 40 in the UK.

But Scary's defiant and is ready to have another go.

She says, "I not scared of having another try. I am working with the best producers ever. I am now ten tracks in to my new record.

"I am doing something with Janet Jackson which should be amazing. I am also going to hook up with Missy [Elliot] again."

Sharon Stoned is sorry (again)

Enough with the apologies, Sharon Stone.

The tourette-tongued actress is still apologising for her

insensitive remarks

about China's recent earthquake.

Shazza released this statement to the media yesterday:

Stone released the following statement Wednesday through her representative: "There [have] been numerous reports about what I said in Cannes.

"I would like to set the record straight about what I feel in my heart and end all of the misunderstandings. Yes, I misspoke. I could not be more regretful of that mistake. It was unintentional. I apologize, those words were never meant to be hurtful to anyone, they were an accident of my distraction and a product of news sensationalism.

"You'll see men around. We haven't had any weddings yet while filming, but I won't rule it out because sometimes I can't control myself."

Drop everything!

Naomi Campbell and Victoria Beckham are reportedly friends again.

Yes, their 8-year feud is dunzo.

The bitter war of words between the two erupted when Campbell supposedly questioned Beckham's right to be called "posh", to which Beckham allegedly hit back with a succession of insults, most of which included the words "massive cow" and "bitch", adding that she was "the only one with the guts to say it".

But that's all

Yeah, right.

Update: Hogan's incessant moaning has paid off. He's set to be transferred out of his current jail cell into a more "palatial" one, according to

kept mum on a series of topics

, including the obvious ones such as Heath Ledger and her wealth.

Here are some snippets from her interview.

On Heath Ledger's death:

"I'm not going to comment on that. I won't give you a word about that in the nicest way possible. Let's move on."

Her 2004 rehab stint [for anorexia]:

"I have never talked about that, or been quoted about that. Look, I think it's important that what anybody goes through - and I'm not saying that it's true or not true - you realize it's part of growing up. Everybody is going to go through hard times. It's a part of life. I think the hardest part to get to is that point of asking for help or reaching out to other people and being honest with yourself. I do not want to go through my life with my eyes shut. And I don't want to go through it with a closed mind. I want to be aware of things. And I'd rather know than not know."

Her wealth:

"It's nobody's business if I am or I'm not [rich].

"I mean, if you want to have a discussion about fame and what does it really mean to be famous these days, what's celebrity anymore? What's media? That's different. I have a completely different point of view about all this because I was never thrown into it.

"I grew up in it," she says. "It wasn't something that I aspired to. It's just something I knew. For me, I just worked. I had a job. I've had a job for 21 years."

Pitty furniture

Brad Pitt jetted off to Switzerland to buy some furniture this week.

Word has it he bought

this lot of fugly furniture

I'd keep the receipt, Pitt, because if Jolie has any taste, she'll order them back from whence they came.

Every office has one, I know mine does: The office idiot.
