"Extra" has learned from a source close to Owen Wilson that the actor did indeed attempt suicide over the weekend.

The source revealed to "Extra" that Wilson has been depressed for the last few months, but insisted it is not over a broken relationship.

The source also told "Extra" that Wilson's brother, Luke, found him and that Wilson's family and friends are shocked.

Calls for Service report from the Santa Monica Police Department, which lists the reason for the 911 call from Owen Wilson's house as an "attempted suicide." The call was received on Sunday, August 26 at 12:08:16 p.m. The incident was "cleared" almost five hours later at 5:07:16pm.

We all wish Owen the best as he tries to get better.

For now, looks like Paris has ditched her extensions. She was at Pure Nightclub for Wilmer Valderrama's Calavena clothing line launch.

This year's biggest headline makers - Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton - were shamed into skipping the Teen Choice Awards, which aired Sunday night on Fox. "There was originally going to be a 'Newsmakers of the Year' award," said our insider. "Paris was nominated for her 23-day stint in jail, Lindsay for her latest DUI bust and Britney for the infamous head-shaving incident. But none of them would dare to show up . . . all the publicists [for the celebutards] went crazy on Fox, and they just scrapped the category."

Oh please! They shouldn't be up for any award besides most fucked in the head, willing to show my rotten flappy vagina award.

Here's a recap of all the lovely drama from last night's Hills episode. I think it's time to ban Spencer from our T.V. sets.

Monday night's episode of The Hills started with Lauren Conrad and her crew at a Brody Jenner beach bash in Malibu (yes, the one where he broke his finger). Brody's BBQ happened the same weekend that Brody's ex-BFF/manager/stylist/publicist, Spencer Pratt, was to be whisked away by his lady to meet her conservative Colorado parents. While we can't fault Pratt for trying, our only issue lies with the fact that Heidi Montag seemed to misrepresent her pops, explaining how she has always longed for "a guy like her dad," and that she's found him in Pratt. If that's the case, we really have to wonder: what is it with that family?!

Back in La La Land, Lauren consoled her roomie Audrina after she miraculously realized what America already knew and kicked her beloved Justin-Bobby to the curb. The breaking point? In the immortal words of Lauren: "Homeboy wore combat boots - to the beach!" Well played, Audrina â€" one jerk is enough for Us to stomach this season.

Lest we forget Pratt's heart-to-heart with Ma and Pa Montag, MTV should be ashamed of themselves for thinking it could carry an entire episode. The meeting consisted of nothing we haven't seen before: Pratt using his mind-control techniques to convince those around him he's "a good guy," Heidi justifying her love for him, blah, blah, blah. Same old story. C'mon, MTV â€" we need substance.

Three episodes into The Hills' third season and we are already over Miss Conrad assuming the "supportive BFF" role. First she offered Heidi a shoulder to cry on, now it's Audrina's turn? Girlfriend best start charging for her advice or be prepared for a lonely lifestyle. Has she ever heard the old adage "always a bridesmaid, never a bride?"

What was Audrina thinking in the first place? Any guy who could be mistaken for a character from Talladega Nights with his name, probably has issues. I just thought he was a complete ass from the beginning. Lauren needs to find some dick of her own, too. She just seems angry that all of her friends are getting some ass but she's not. Buy the rabbit LC, it works wonders. I can't stomach seeing Heidi & Spencer's horse teeth anymore either. I just wanna file those suckers down!

Lauren said,

"I didn't do anything wrong," she told South Carolina's The State newspaper. "I wasn't expecting [the question]. I lost my train of thought."

Lauren didn't do anything wrong. She was just being herself, which is an airhead.

Is it just me, or is that Jeremy Piven making an appearance in the video?

"I would like to dedicate this award to a young man who has been on my mind for the last 19 years: Ross," Jessica Alba 26, told a rapt audience as she accepted the female hottie award. "Ross didn't love me. I was pigeon-toed, I had a sway back, I was slightly cross-eyed, buck-toothed, I sucked my thumb." She added, with a laugh: "Look at me now, Ross! Look at me now!"

Look at you now Jessica! You've filled out a little since you were 10 years old I'm sure, but you're still slightly cross-eyed sweetie. Still a sexy bitch either way!

In a press conference, Falcons owner Arthur Blank said that while he's "profoundly disappointed and saddened" by Vick's action, the team is not willing to throw Vick to the dogs.

"We cannot tell you today that Michael is cut from the team," said Blank. "It may feel better emotionally, but it's not in the long term best interest of our franchise."

Blank added, "If we had any idea this was going on ... we would have dealt with it immediately."

Michael also said,

"I was ashamed and totally disappointed in myself, to say the least. I want to apologize to all the young kids out there for my immature acts. What I did was very immature, so that means I need to grow up. I totally ask for forgiveness and understanding as I move forward to be a better Michael Vick the person, not the football player."

I just really don't like people who are sorry after the fact. He would still be doing what he was if he didn't get busted. Plus, I just don't like men who are named Mike. They tend to be self-absorbed assholes who break your heart, play innocent and leave you high and dry, or should I say wet and high? Damn, if the wrong people discover this blog, I'll have plenty of explaining to do.

Britney Spears is being investigated for possible child abuse.

An unscheduled hearing was held today at L.A. County Superior Court. Present -- Britney's lawyer, Dennis Wasser, K-Fed's attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan and a lawyer from the Los Angeles County Counsel who is assigned to the dependency court.

We do not know the specifics of the allegations but we're told the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services is conducting an active investigation.

A hearing in the custody case has been scheduled for September 4, which will be a follow up to today's appearance.

When I think about it, Britney's constantly being investigated for something ridiculous. This girl can't catch a break. But I wonder what this is all about? We need deets, dammit!

Looks like Angelina's cutie still hasn't gotten used to the paparazzi. She remains in shock.
