Durand/WireImage; Dimitrios Kambouris/WireImage.comBefore we get to the frivolity of the day, Sunday is the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and we'd like to extend thoughts, prayers and well-wishes to the families of those who lost loved ones in New York, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania.
In commemorating the date, we've thought about the ways in which Hollywood has changed and, in certain cases, not changed at all since 9/11, as well as how the politics and emotions set off that day are being reflected in what we watch and listen to.
But then, we've got your usual seven days' worth of celebutainment ready for the reviewing in one fell swoop. Enjoy!
THE IMPORTANCE OF LOOKING BOTH WAYS: This wasn't Just Like Heaven. Reese Witherspoon got a little banged up when she was hit by a car while jogging, but was back home with her family by the end of the day. Like the ray of sunshine she appears to be, Reese will not be pressing charges against the 84-year-old woman behind the wheel of the car that hit her, probably figuring that almost running over an Oscar winner was enough of a wakeup call for the old gal. Besides, Reese was probably far more pissed at the person who said "the most horrifying thing" ever to her. (On a related note, Jason Biggs revealed himself to be really unfunny.)
TAKING ONE ON THE CHIN: Ali Lohan has become the latest target of did-she-or-didn't-she-have-surgery controversy, based on comparisons between pictures of her taken less than a year ago at 16 and a new shot of her looking, well, a lot more angular at 17. Her mom, rep and sis Lindsay Lohan deny that she's had any work done and say the teen has just shot up and slimmed down. But don't even think that people will stop wondering what's really the case. (In related body scrutiny, Jessica Simpson asserts that her boobs were made for keepin', and Ella Nolan of The Bachelor and Bachelor Pad admits to multiple plastic surgeries.)
FOGGY FORECAST: Kate Gosselin admits she's freaking out about what to do next, now that Kate Plus 8 is canceled.
FLIM JIM: Seriously, what is up with Jim Carrey? Last time we checked, he was still pretty famous and didn't really need to be spray-painting graffiti, er, art outside his studio or sending mock (we're still giving the benefit of the doubt on that one) love letters to Emma Stone. Maybe all the non-box-office-topping movies he's been making lately are starting to get to him.

FREAKY FALL: Biggest Loser season nine fave Sam Poueu fell several stories from a San Francisco building and was conscious but in critical condition.
PRETTY WEIRD: Fingers were wagging at TLC's Toddlers & Tiaras after a 3-year-old competed in the talent portion of a pageant wearing a mini version of Julia Roberts' Pretty Woman hooker look, even though it was part of a supposedly really funny prostitute-turned-princess skit. Now the child's mom is auctioning the costume off to benefit an anti-abortion charity.
NOT SO FAST: CBS News' What's Trending crew errantly reported the death of Steve Jobs. They were very sorry about that, but the twitterverse was raring to bite someone's head off that day—may as well be a tweeter who messed up.
TIS THE SEASON: Ben & Jerry's is spreading a little holiday cheer with their newest flavor, Schweddy Balls. Makes up for all the Frappucinos Alec Baldwin won't be drinking this Christmas.
FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY: Miss Colombia should probably wear panties to the Miss Universe Pageant, or else everyone else's panties will be in a twist.
A REAL BUMMER: A London pub removed a pic of 28-year-old Pippa Middleton's posterior from its probably pretty funny sign before anyone could get too offended by it.
