• Justin Timberlake spent time on Jimmy Kimmel Live! last night explaining all kinds of stuff: his Kilimanjaro climb (to benefit a charity), his Elvis Costello glasses (to see better) and his recent makeout sesh with girlfriend Jessica Biel at a Lakers game (to show up the smooch between Dustin Hoffman and his girlfriend).

• Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey appeared on the red carpet of an antiques show together so, you know, we could see them still together. Because seeing is believing.

• Mario Batali is Gwyneth Paltrow's only fat friend, but she's trying to change that. So sweet.

• Chad Michael Murray's fiancé is Miss USA's sister, which has nothing to do with Miss California Carrie Prejean.

• Jimmy Fallon and his wife are pretty stinkin' cute together.

Dear Fred Durst: Thanks for sharing your engagement announcement on Twitter. The ring is gorgeous, so it must not be all about the nookie. Congrats! Love, Rise 'n' Shine
