Taking Carrie Bradshaw to the big screen proved a shrewd move for Sarah Jessica Parker - the Sex and the City movie's so far raked in more than $300 million - and now she's eyeing the role of another single urban professional.
The star, 43, is in discussions with Warner Bros. about a screen version of novelist Karen Quinn's The Ivy Chronicles, described by the Hollywood Reporter as an up-to-date take about class and the single woman in Manhattan - though unlike Bradshaw, title character Ivy Ames moves out of the Upper East Side after the double whammy of a job loss and a divorce.
She has to withdraw her children from their expensive private school, though they also provide her with a eureka moment: Ames starts a service to help women land their kids in upper-crust kindergartens.
I would love to see her in this role. Start production ASAP!!!

Madonna and Guy.... OVER! (Maybe)
Another day, another 10,000 Madge/Guy Ritchie divorce rumors. The rumors are everything from Madge officially hiring Paul McCartney's divorce lawyer to Madge announcing her divorce after her world tour ends in November. My favorite story is about Madge and Guy's romantic three-day trip to Milan, Italy.
The Sun reports that the trip was supposed to be all romantic, but they both spent it working. They also spent it in separate hotel rooms. A source said, "They had completely separate rooms, schedules, everything. It is all very well organized but it's not a marriage the way most people understand it. They have this attitude like ‘we're not really a couple but we're friends and we love each other and raise our kids'. "
Maybe Guy is jealous of Justin Timberlake in this picture...

Awww The Baby Needs Help with the Baby
TMZ spies tell us ever since the unwed teen mother gave birth last week, she's been staying at mom Lynne's Kentwood home -- which Britney paid for -- called Serenity. We're told even though JL and baby daddy Casey Aldridge bought a home in nearby Liberty, Miss., Jamie has decided to stay with Mama Spears because she's realized it ain't so easy raising a child ... especially, when you're still one yourself.
As far as Casey's living arrangements, we're told he goes back and forth between staying with Jamie Lynn and little Maddie Briann, and his folks' home. An adult mother's work is never done.

Mary and the choreographer dude had uhh... a moment? More like an awkward moment.
In the words of JoJo On The Radio.... "Ewwwwwwww!"
