Britney Spears showed up to the Generation Rescue event hosted by Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy to make her first red carpet appearance since having her meltdown back in January. We have to hand it to her — she looks semi-decent and appears to have bathed and put a little thought into her outfit. The hair still needs some help, but Ken Paves will work his magic in due time. He is only one man, after all.
Fendi had some redesign at its Rodeo Drive boutique, and that calls for a celebration! Right?
In attendance was, of course, Lindsay Lohan. The girl can't miss an event, especially now that she's sobered up. If she's not drinking alcohol she needs to feed her other addiction: posing for the paparazzi.
This dress just doesn't look right on her. Maybe it's the fact that she looks twice her age. Let this be a lesson to everyone: Don't get hooked on drugs and alcohol, because it will make you look old.

Rumor has it that Rose McGowan was denied a role in the upcoming film Speed Racer due to her bad cosmetic surgery.
McGowan, 34, has admitted to having plastic surgery for an eye injury related to a car accident. But casting skeptics suspect she has had much more done, and that it cost her the role.
"The studio felt like she was hard to recognize and worried that by the time the movie hit theaters, fans might not know who she was," says our insider.
The role McGowan sought ultimately went to the much-less-fiddled-with, perfectly circular face of Christina Ricci.
After the jump, photos from McGowan's recent underwear shoot, where her face is caked in makeup. Surprise, surprise.

Grindouse director Robert Rodriguez jeopardized the film's production after falling into a clandestine love affair with Rose McGowan and subsequently leaving his wife. What a pro.
"It was the worst-kept secret on the set. They were going off to his trailer, having meals together," our source said. "Rose thought some of the crew were treating her differently, and the attitude was, like, well what do you expect when you're fucking the director?"
She and Rodriguez first met at Cannes in 2005. But until now the consequences of their shenanigans weren't fully known. When the director "fell in love with his femme-fatale star . . . he broke up his marriage of 16 years . . . The production had to shut down for a month while he recovered," Variety reports.
Rodriguez and [his ex] insist that their separation is amicable and that they plan to raise their four boys, Rebel, Rocket, Rogue and Racer, and daughter, Rhiannon, together and continue their partnership in Troublemaker Studios.
He named his kids Rocket and Racer Rodriguez and he's leaving their mother for the young starlet from his horror movie? Is this some sort of new parenting technique where you intentionally get your children to hate you? Is he looking forward to a nursing home?

What's the impetus behind wanting to know what others looked like when they were children? Everyone likes to see what other people—especially famous people—looked like when they were five, but I don't know why. I'm not above it, but I'm willing to admit that it's an odd desire. Maybe, subconsciously, we like to be reminded that these people too once needed their diapers changed.
Regardless, Marilyn Manson's pics explain a lot. He looks like he was probably an easy target. Check the source for the identities.
