GASP!

Paparazzi captured some footage of Kate Gosselin spanking daughter Leah. It hit the Internet tonight. This should give the Gosselin’s some of that publicity they’ve been so sorely lacking.

I know I should be outraged or something, but at this point I’m just so over being mean to Kate Gosselin. The story’s been overplayed, like that Flo Rida track about a girl going down. (Is anyone else so over that song?) I’m just ready for the media hype to die down and for these kids to get a little peace and quiet in the midst of their parents’ divorce. I know that’s not going to happen anytime soon, but pics like this don’t help. I mean, really, what were you thinking doing this in public, Kate? What did you think was going to happen?

You can watch a snippet of the video from The Insider‘s teaser here.

The fabulous Miz Taylor kicked ass at the CMT awards tonight, taking home the fan-voted awards for Best Video and Best Female Video for “Love Story.”

“This is for everybody who still believes in love stories, because I do,” she said in accepting her first award.

Awww, Taylor! Damn straight, girl! What are those silly Jonas brothers up to these days again? That’s right — nothing as cool as what you’re accomplishing.

There’s a bunch of pics in the gallery of arrivals at the CMTs. Please don’t quit until you’ve seen Kellie Pickler’s dress from all possible angles. (Each is as bad as the one before it.)

Oh, and if you want to see me doing my very best Taylor Swift look, click here.

La Lohan’s in New York spending time with her family, and the whole crew headed into Manhattan to do some shopping for little Cody’s birthday. He’s the one wearing the sweatshirt that says “Lohan.” I assume it’s a team sweatershirt made for some sport that he plays, because otherwise it’s just a big ol’ paparazzi-attracting sign. Lindsay Twittered this adorable shot of Cody sleeping in the car as the fam drove into the city.

Oh, and she also thanked Elle magazine for their statement about how they don’t think she stole $400K worth of their jewelry.

Condolences to Mia Farrow, whose brother, sculptor Patrick Farrow, was found dead on Monday night on the premises of the gallery and studio space he owned with his wife in Castleton, Vermont.

Patrick’s death is being called “suspicious” and police are investigating, although no further details were released. Police also did not release the name of the caller who reported his body found at 11:30 pm on Monday.

I just think it looks hilarious. This movie is going to promote itself just fine via word-of-mouth, but Sacha Baron Cohen isn’t taking any chances. Bruno opens July 10, and he’s going to spend every last minute up until then promoting the hell out of this thing — like with this brilliant GQ photo shoot. I can’t remember the last time I laughed out loud at a photo shoot. Oh, wait, yes I can: It was when Lindsay Lohan did the Fornarina shoot.

Ugh.  I want to be catty and scream “Photoshop!” and “Surgery!” but I don’t know.  Michelle Pfeiffer is looking pretty damn amazing on August’s cover of InStyle magazine.

I guess if there’s any solace, Michelle admits that her physique doesn’t come naturally.  “I have to work at it…There are women who just genetically have beautiful bodies—it seems to us they don’t have to work out. I personally have to work at it.  I’m doing all the right things. I do cardio and strength training, a little bit of weights. I mix it up, but I can’t push myself the way I used to.”

Oh, Michelle, I’m so glad to know that you aren’t one of those “I never work out and I eat 4,000 calories a day chicks.”  I love you.
