Gossip / Rumors

TMZ has learned that Britney Spears and Kevin Federline will come together one more time to tell the public that they never made a sex tape.

Reps from the divorcing couple tell us that both Britney and Kevin want to put an end to rumors that K-Fed is out peddling a sex tape for some quick cash. They have agreed to jointly issue a statement, hoping to put an end to the flurry of stories that such a tape exists.

[UPDATE 1:30PM ET] -- Attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan later released a statement that said in part, "There is not a sex video of Kevin and Britney in existence. It goes without saying that the stories of Kevin attempting to sell such a video are patently false and anyone who reports that they have information of such attempts is either lying or reporting the lie of someone else."

Chris Robinson has filed for divorce from his wife of nearly six years, actress Kate Hudson.

Powerhouse disso-queen lawyer Laura Wasser filed papers Friday in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Robinson's behalf, citing "irreconcilable differences." The couple, who married in December of 2000, has a two-year-old son named Ryder. Robinson is seeking joint custody. As for financial matters, TMZ has learned the couple has a prenup and that Robinson is not seeking spousal support.

Robinson and Hudson announced their separation back in August 2006. At the time, rumors swirled that Hudson was romantically involved with her "You, Me, and Dupree" co-star, Owen Wilson. Both Hudson and Wilson have denied that they're an item.

Robinson's lawyer, Laura Wasser, is also repping Britney Spears in her divorce from Kevin Federline.

Trying to be incognito (yeah, sure) in a long trenchcoat, knee-high black boots and big black sunglasses, Posh was spotted at Madrid airport yesterday. The espionage outfit didn't deflect attention, and the former Spice Girl was quickly bombarded with questions by the paparazzi crush.

One nugget from the pap assault; Beckham will not be singing solo, acting or re-forming her defunct pop-quintet anytime soon.

The whooshing sound you hear is the worldwide sigh of relief.

It's getting hot on the Warner lot! Well-placed sources tell TMZ that Matthew Perry has been romancing Lizzy Caplan of the new CBS show "The Class." We're told that although the two have only been coupling for a few weeks, the romance is definitely hot and heavy!

The former "Friend" met the hot "Mean Girls" starlet on the set as Perry's show, "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" shoots nearby. Our spies tell us the two visit each other's sets frequently, and are often seen canoodling.

The two have more in common than their studio location. "The Class" was created by David Crane, who was one of the executive producers of "Friends," and the couple was reportedly fixed up by Matt LeBlanc's rumored new squeeze (and former "Joey" co-star) Andrea Anders. Just to make things even more incestuously confusing, Anders now is a "Class" regular.

And in case you were wondering; Lizzy is 24 and Matthew is 37. Nice pull, Chandler. Could she BE any younger??

Reese's reps deny any hanky-panky between the two, now in Los Angeles filming their new thriller, "Rendition." As the photos show, Reese is pregnant in the film.

Personally, we'd be happy if Reese found someone to hang with. As for Jake, we're just happy to see him photographed without Lance Armstrong.

George Clooney is disputing an OK! magazine story that Senator Barack Obama told the actor he's a go for a Presidential run.

Stan Rosenfield, Clooney's publicist, quotes Clooney as saying, "I said I talked to the senator and begged him to run. And I hope he does. There's no news scoop from me. He'll make up his mind on his own schedule."

The OK! website quotes Clooney as saying, "I just spoke with Barack and he is going to run. I just hung up the phone with him."

"America's Next Top Model" is huge -- and so are the contestants! The gals of next season's ANTM are not your usual model-size negative 1. Although the girls would definitely not be labeled as plus-sized, insiders say they're far from the stick figures we're used to seeing on the runway. Our source joked that the hair and makeup peeps have their work cut out for them.

It is unclear whether or not it's a strategic move, or if the producers are slightly off in their choices, but we applaud taking the more natural-looking woman and trying to doll her up. On a 'lighter' note, the girls are said to be some of the most humble and grateful girls the show has ever seen. Say it isn't so! Top Model is nothing without the bitchfights!

During the interview, Shar and Jason explained that their "special" bond was purely platonic ... and shot down rumors that they were a serious item.

"We were contemplating going to Vegas," Alexander joked. Jackson playfully interuppted, "...and going to the same little white chapel that you went to!"

The two also sent their best wishes to the newly-split couple, while explaining their own odd relationships with them.

Shar and Jason were asked if they'd ever get back together with their exes, now that they're back on the market. Their replies: no!

Looks like one of Hollywood's most unlikely pairings may be back together.

Although tiny bedraggled funnyman David Spade and TV stalwart Heather Locklear decided to go "on a break" back in September, the two were spotted meeting up for dinner last night at Mr. Chow.

Heather and David arrived separately, but left together in Spade's ride after dining. Ever the gentleman, Spade even opened the car door for Locklear before the two jetted away, hopefully to do Heather's roots.

Minnie Driver, wearing ugg-ly boots, and a new mystery man hit the streets of Santa Monica on Tuesday, holding hands and looking extremely lovey-dovey throughout the afternoon. Take wing, Angel.

Even if there's no real romance between the two,one thing is certain -- Minnie knows how to make a mouse out of a man.

TMZ can now confirm the Internet rumors are true: Prince will be moving into the Rio hotel in Las Vegas.

Prince will play Friday and Saturday nights at 3121, the club formerly known as Club Rio, beginning Nov. 10. Tickets for Prince's shows will run $125. Shows on Wednesday night will feature guest performances by friends of Prince, while Thursday nights will be 3121 Latin Labido Night. Tickets for those two nights will be $31.21.

Instead of the $125 cover, patrons have the option of a special dinner and show package available for $312.10 per person: minimum of two guests; includes dinner at 3121 Jazz Cuisine, VIP tickets to the performance, and one bottle with table service per two guests.

In addition to the new club, a restaurant will open called 3121 Jazz Cuisine featuring a brand-new menu created by Executive Chef Lena Morgan.

A source also tells us that Prince is staying in the Palazzo Suites at the Rio -- the hotel's VIP suites and a favorite of stars like Elton John.

Tickets can be ordered at the Rio Box Office at 702-777-7776, at any Ticketmaster outlet or by visiting www.vegas.com. Tickets will go on sale this week.

Sources tell TMZ that Prince is playing an invitation only, private event at Club Rio tonight in Las Vegas -- marking the start of his taking up residence at the hotel as a permanent performer.

Rumors have been swirling for months that Prince would take over Club Rio (located inside the Rio hotel) and re-name it 3121, the same name given to his last album. Nothing official has been announced, but sources tell us that renovations have been done to the club in less than a week's time to prepare for tonight's festivities.

The club's normal days of operation are Thursday, Friday and Saturday -- so opening up on a Tuesday might be a way for the club to host the concert on the down low.

Though Paris Hilton was swarmed by questioning photogs, the heiress kept quiet about Nicole Richie's checking into a treatment facility.

As she made her exit from Hollywood hotspot Area, a cameraman repeatedly asked Hilton, "is it true Nicole is in rehab?" Paris evaded the line of questioning the only way she knows how - by pretending to talk on her cell phone.

Nicole checked herself into a private facility for an undisclosed treatment yesterday where, according to her publicist, she is "working with a team of doctors and specialists whose focus is nutrition."

The on-set fight between Isaiah Washington and Patrick Dempsey was nothing more than "a little burst of testosterone" -- at least according to Katherine Heigl.

Though some reports suggest the scuffle was set-off by Washington making hateful comments towards another cast mate, Heigl, who plays Dr. Isobel "Izzie" Stevens, downplayed the altercation on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show."

"It was something silly and manly," says Heigel, who was not in the scene being filmed, "there was a little burst of testosterone in the room and then within five minute everything was totally fine. They were totally fine and joking with each other and laughing."

Heigl's full interview airs today.

Knight and MacFarlane, who plays a gay character on ABC's "Brothers & Sisters," were seen getting cozy yesterday in Santa Monica. The two went shopping for furniture and electronics before taking a break to enjoy the beautiful ocean view.

The last few weeks have been a little tense for Knight and the rest of the "Grey's" cast after the behind the scenes drama involving Isaiah Washington and Patrick Dempsey erupted. Some reports of the incident claim that Dempsey was defending T.R. against hateful comments made by Washington.

Whatever may have caused the fight, it's good to see T.R. enjoying the simple things in life.

"Grey's Anatomy" star T.R. Knight told PEOPLE exclusively that he is gay. But was this coming out of his own free will, or as a result of the much-hyped fight between "Grey's" stars Isaiah Washington and Patrick Dempsey?

PEOPLE released a statement from Knight today that said, "While I prefer to keep my personal life private, I hope the fact that I'm gay isn't the most interesting part of me."

But the National Enquirer may have tipped us off to the story when they reported that during the fight between Washington and Dempsey, Washington yelled, "I'm not your little faggot like (name deleted)."

The Enquirer said they withheld the name of the co-star Washington mentioned "because of the extreme nature of the slur."

Does Knight's disclosure confirm the Enquirer's story?
