Police don't believe Kim Kardashian's claim that a thief stole $50,000 worth of valuables while she was being mobbed by fans at JFK airport. The sex tape vixen and reality TV star supposedly lost her diamonds, a Cartier watch, digital camera and her laptop on Nov. 8, but law enforcement officials suspect it's a publicity stunt. Neither Port Authority cops, the NYPD nor the Queens district attorney has any report of a theft. Kardashian's reps didn't return calls.

Why can't Kim spend less time leaking fake stories and more time plucking those eyebrows? It looks likes she's been growing that mess out so she can get eyebrow cornrows for Christmas.

He does have his three bars to promote.

In a dramatic rose ceremony on the November 19 finale of The Bachelor, Texas bar owner Brad Womack, 35, said goodbye to both of the show's finalists: real estate agent DeAnna Pappas, 25, and Phoenix Suns dancer Jenni Croft, 27.Now Womack tells Us the real reason he let both ladies go.

"DeAnna and I had something that's pretty special. But I did not see this crazy love that would turn into a lifetime," says the still-single Womack. "I'm still looking for the same things that I said all along �" a best friend, a life-long partner and someone to fall madly in love with. I didn't want to lead anybody on. I was very honest with both of the ladies about that."

I actually like Katie Holmes new haircut! Much of that is due to the fact that I could care less about her and what she does with her hair. But, it's a bold new look, a great experiment and once again I don't give a shit.

And I love it when she towers over Tom! I was never reminded of what a midget he is until they started screwing. :)

Cops apparently agree and have now charged the R&B singer with misdemeanor endangering the welfare of a minor and second-degree harassment.The charges stem from an incident last June in upstate NY when he was performing at a concert and someone allegedly threw something at the singer on stage. Akon asked the crowd to point out the culprit. A security guard picked a 15-year-old out from the crowd and sent him up to the stage, where Akon hoisted him onto his shoulders and flung him into the crowd. Smack that! The kid landed on another teen who told the local paper she was later diagnosed with a concussion.

Akon is scheduled to appear in a local court on Monday for arraignment. Locked up!

Men, cover your eyeballs! I'm going to talk about menstruation. Some eco-friendly extremists have come up with reusable maxi pads. Read on...

If you don't want to deal with the hassle of selecting a costly reusable alternative and have a bit of a crafter in you, then maybe it's time to join the hand-made revolution and re-assert your creativity (and to redefine "rag") by picking out some funky, colourful, pretty fabrics and to make your very own menstrual pads tailored for you.

They are easy to use, cute to look at, and comfortable. Just use them, soak them in cold water, and cold water wash them with your regular laundry. All you need is some soft natural cloth like cotton flannel. Cut it into the shape you like, perhaps based on the size the crotch part in your undies and sew. It's easy!

Have a sew-in with some girlfriends or surprise someone with a pretty and useful hand-made gift.

What's next, washable toilet paper and recycled condoms? Check out some of the comments on this post. Hilarious.

I'm not a woman, so at the risk of making an arse of myself I'll just ask this: do they absorb as well as the expensive disposable varieties?

you guys are right, well atleast in my experience. i tried the cloth pads ages ago and as a heavy bleeder for about half of my menstruation cycle, i found they didnt absorb quite as well.

i think that's the silliest invention ever not only they are LESS hygienic then the ones we buy from our local pharmacy, but they are hardly reliable! fabric will just absorb the blood and it will start leaking within the first 30 mins (sucks to have heavy flow) they also won't stay put and lastly, it's going to feel super uncomfortable wearing them! they are not making pads ultra thin for nothing, why go back to diaper-like pads?!

I would argue that the whole point of making pads yourself is to free oneself from the commodification & commercialization of menstruation.

WOW! I care about the environment, but not enough to wear some washable diaper.

* I wasn't gonna update today because I'm buried in work to do, but I did. :) I didn't wanna go all Amy Winehouse on you and cancel. Anyway, that means hell no I'm not posting any links today. I'll catch up tomorrow. <3

Ellen DeGeneres apologized on her talk show Thursday for calling Bachelor star Brad Womack a "jerk" earlier in the week �" and will have him on Friday's show to ask why he picked neither of the two finalists in the show's finale.

During an interview with one of the finalists, DeAnna Pappas, on Tuesday, "I may have called [Womack] a jerk," DeGeneres admitted. "I'm pretty sure I did. Cause I thought he was a jerk. Cause I though he led the girls on."

But soon she regretted her remark. "I went home that night and I thought, 'That's not who I am,' " she said Thursday. "I don't like to judge people. I don't want to call someone a jerk. I do think what he did was wrong, but I do apologize."

DeGeneres said she had learned that Womack, 35, was upset by her comments. "Because he likes me and was a big fan," she said, before adding jokingly, "Now, if I had known that, I would not have called him a jerk."

I find this especially tragic that Ellen has become such a damn coward. The Writer's Guild is pissed with her for continuing to film and it's like she's just a cautious baby now. Speak your mind, bitch! Brad isn't just a "jerk" he's a heartless asshole. He did lead those poor women on. Now you're just a liar, Ellen. You know you meant that shiz, still love ya though.

Kevin is asking for more money in child support from Britney Spears. It's like he's never going to get a real job at any point ever.

I don't mind him asking Brit Brit for mo money, considering he has more custody of the children, but can he work? Did he work even a single day in 2007? The pimp of all dead beats, he is.

Britney currently ponies up $15,000 a month in child support. But that amount was calculated based on a 50/50 custody arrangement. K-Daddy now has primary custody, while she has visitation and one overnight a week.

Here's why we're sure Mark Vincent Kaplan, K-Fed's lawyer, will make the pitch to the judge: First of all, although 15K sounds like a lot, it's actually less than the standard award given Brit's income (more than $700,000 a month).

Obviously, since K-Fed now has primary custody, his expenses have increased. Sources say nannies and security (security is actually a court-ordered requirement) are really expensive. Being a parent is a bitch!

Not to be a cynic, because taking a picture of a text message on a BlackBerry should totally count as evidence of something, but it's also REALLY EASY TO FAKE. For instance, I changed one friend's name in my address book to "Britney Spears" and...Voila! We have our confirmation. AND photo "proof" that Britney Spears is using meth while pregnant with J.R. Rotem's twins.Kinda makes you question In Touch's original photos, huh?

* THANKS MARIO! I really appreciate your email. J.R. may have sent the text messages, but he may have been kidding. InTouch magazine is grasping at straws by using a "text" for evidence. An ultrasound or a videotaped doctor's visit and positive test results is real proof. It's a fun rumor nonetheless, and thanks again, Mario. :)
