Here’s a clip of Paris on The View on Thursday.

Skip to around 5:20, where Joy Behar assumes that Paris Hilton won’t be allowed to vote because of her brief jail stint for driving with a suspended license.

Whoopi Goldberg shoots her down on that, adding that “the only felony crime in this room is this ridiculous Ed Hardy shirt I’m wearing.” No, no. She didn’t say that. But someone really should have.

It’s heeeeeeeeeeeere!

The film’s been delayed time and time again, but, at long last, the very first trailer for the feel-good Hitler-assassinating film of the year, Valkyrie, starring one Tom Cruise has been released.

What do you guys think?

Will you see it?

Buzz Aldrin, the first man on the moon, is releasing a memoir next year — and it’s not just about space-walking.

The astronaut’s memoir will focus as much on his struggles with alcoholism and depression as it will on his space days.

“From the pinnacle of Apollo, my greatest challenge became the human one — overcoming alcoholism and living beyond depression — a challenge that required more courage and determination than going to the moon,” Aldrin, 78, said in a statement issued Thursday by his publisher.

“I was 39 years of age, had achieved my grandest goal, and should have been on top of the world, but there were no roadmaps, and few signposts if any along the way that could lead me out of the quagmire into which I had tumbled. For 10 years, I floundered.”

The book will be called Magnificent Desolation: The Long Road Home from the Moon.

Heh.

Initially, the big celebrity news this week was Clay Aiken’s coming out story, published exclusively in People magazine.

While Aiken’s announcement was interesting in and of itself, more compelling is the backstory behind the People deal. Apparently, the economy isn’t just having an impact on Wall Street — it’s affecting the celebrity magazine world, too.

Exclusive photos of Clay and his son, Parker, went for an underwhelming amount compared to the multimillion-dollar price tag that accompanies a Jennifer Lopez or Jolie-Pitt agreement. Aiken’s deal cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $500,000 according to several sources privy to the negotiations (a rep for People said “We don’t comment on the specifics of any deals”).

The low dollar amount wasn’t necessarily due to waning interest in Aiken — one editor admitted that his magazine had been trying to get the singer to do a tell-all for a substantial sum long before the baby was in the picture. Instead, People had little competition for the photos, and in turn, no one to drive the price up.

Dude, I should have held out. I pose with my baby (Leo) and tell ya’ll about my Taylor Momsen fantasies for free on here all the time. Hey People! I’ll settle for $100K to do your cover.
