Hugh Jackman was seen on the streets of New York yesterday walking his son Oscar Maximillian to school while accompanied by daughter Ava Eliot.

Firstly, it’s great to see a dad — any dad — involved with the every day activities of his kids.  Awesome.

And you know that I won’t ever make fun of celeb children here at Evil Beet, though I do reserve the right to make fun of my own children, but jade green skinny jeans and a matching striped tunic on a nine-year-old?  Wow.  Tween fashion is changing.

Jessica Biel is on the cover of June’s Allure and like every other marginally talented actress, she blames her beauty as a stumbling block to success.  “Yeah, it [her breathtaking beauty] really is a problem.  I have to be blunt.”

I’m more convinced than ever that Biel is totally clueless.  She cannot fathom why a casting director would laugh at the mention of her name.  “I’m in there with everybody else, fighting for the good parts. Yes, The Illusionist has made a difference — but a huge, massive difference, so I can pick and choose what I want? No.  I just want an opportunity. If you don’t like the audition, don’t hire me!  But if you don’t want to even see me — that’s hurtful. And why? You know nothing about me!”

Really, Jessica?  Because I think people do know plenty about you.  And based on this review and this clip, I’d never let you into my office either.

“I’d just been on a trip to Minnesota, where I can only kindly describe most of the people I saw as little houses.”

I was hoping things were looking up for Tara Reid after her stint in rehab.  To be honest, she was looking fabulous and seemed really dedicated to her program.  Then she went to Cannes.

Relapse is pretty common, especially in the early days of sobriety.  Tara, go home, call your sponsor.  And for God’s sake, put on some lipstick!

Sadly, Reid isn’t the only one back on the sauce.  I watched Celebrity Rehab when porn star Mary Carey was on.  And yeah, the show is exploitative, but she really showed signs of promise.  It seemed that when she stopped drinking she could envision a life that didn’t involve getting naked in front of cameras.  Unfortunately, she had a manager who was a real scumbag focused on salary over sanity.

It was pretty clear that she returned to boozing it up, but now Carey has released a new porn movie titled Celebrity Pornhab with Dr. Screw. You can watch a small clip of her on the set here, complete with Carey swigging straight out of a bottle.

Dr. Drew Pinsky, host of Celebrity Rehab (which will now be known as “the one where everyone keeps their clothes on“), Tweeted about it: “For those of you wondering about my feelings about Mary Ellen Cook’s [Mary Carey's] choice to mock : Res ipsa loquitur. Makes me very sad.”

It is sad to watch the descent and I can’t imagine having to battle addiction in the media.  I hope these two over-processed blonds can get on the right path.  Soon!

I’m sorry to start off your Monday Tuesday (it’s been a long weekend) morning in such a jarring fashion, but what was that huge, blinding atrocity seen on Paris Hilton’s unmanicured digit last night in Cannes?  No, I’m not referring to the herpes lesion.  We need to discuss the ring.  Does this mean that Paris and Doug Reinhardt are engaged?  Might Paris actually have found her soulless mate?

It’s clear that Paris’ attention is held by sparkly things — how else could we explain the dress? — so I’d say we’ve got six months before the inevitable and dramatic break up happens.  Though last month when asked about their future, Doug replied ”You never know,” and Paris replied “He’s going to be my husband.”  Maybe she was right.

I’m sure you all remember this story out of the UK, where this baby-faced little boy, 13-year-old Alfie Patten, was said to be the father of little Maisie Roxanne. Maisie’s mom is 15-year-old Chantelle Stedman, and she swore at the time that Alfie was the only boy she’d ever slept with. After the story broke, several other teenage boys came forward to say that they’d slept with her, too, and after DNA testing it turns out that 15-year-old Tyler Barker is actually the father of the little girl. He says he slept with Chantelle only once, and that she said she’d take the morning-after pill the next day. “I thought she’d take care of it,” he said.

ZOMG. What a mess. I feel awful for this Chantelle girl — she made some awful decisions, but she’s still a kid, and she’s being painted as such a hussie by the media internationally. But, listen, ladies and gents: Birth control is EVERYONE’S responsibility, not just the chick’s. And the morning-after pill is NOT a reliable form of birth control. It’s a great thing to use in a pinch, but there are MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE forms of birth control if you’re going to be having sex, such as condoms, an IUD, or the Pill.

Oh, and we’ve got an article over on Zelda Lily about how the pulling-out method is nearly as effective as condoms in preventing pregnancy. But it’s way less effective at preventing STDs! Be safe and smart out there, kiddos. And, for God’s sake, don’t sleep with a 13-year-old boy.
