The Return of Donna Martin?
Tori Spelling, a piece of plastic that someone carelessly left on the radiator, has announced that she would like to be a part of the planned Beverly Hills: 90210 remake. Spelling was a member of the original cast (and one of a few that stayed until the bitter, bitter end) as a part of take your daughter to work decade, so she believes her involvement would make her late father, who produced the original version, very proud. Probably true! But don't go and cast her as a mother or anything: "[I'm] obviously too young to have a teenager, so maybe I could be one of the main character's young stepmom," she says. Yes that could work. Or, "playing the funny sex ed teacher at the high school would be funny, too, considering Donna Martin was America's most infamous virgin." Even better! I support this Tori, I really do. [Showbiz Spy] If you know me at all, you know exactly what awaits you after the jump. More »

Winona Ryder Thought Shoplifting Season Already Underway
- It's been so long since actress Winona Ryder stole anything that she's not up on the latest anti-theft technology. A drug store employee said she tried to steal makeup, via her purse, and was caught by the stupid door alarm thing and made to give it back. Wait, people actually stop for those alarms?

A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Tori Spelling
Remember Tori Spelling? No, not the dead one! That's her bazillionaire TV mogul papa Aaron. Tori is his deformed daughter. Tori is (was?) an actress who played the virginal Donna Martin (who did, in fact, graduate) on daddy's hot show about cool teens in the hot, cool city Beverly Hills 90210 ("Nine-oh" for in-the-know fags and losers). She also had a glorious career in television movies, most famously in the best-titled movie ever made, Mother, May I Sleep With Danger? Well, that's all over now and she was cut her out of her dad's will, so she needs some cash! And what does that almost always mean for nonentity celebrities like Tori and Lance Bass? MEMOIR!!!! Yerp, Tori has written a tome of doubtless grandiloquence that will be hitting the shelves anon. Some selected passages after the jump. The most pleasing? When she says that "Nine-oh" (see?) costar Luke Perry called her "Camel" because of her long eyelashes. Right. That is why he called her camel. It had nothing to do with her looking exactly, in every way possible, like a camel. Oh, Tori. More »

Why Tori Spelling Is On The Cover Of 'Us Weekly'
Slow news week in celeb-land! Us has thrown Tori Spelling on this week's cover, presumably because they paid good money for the photos of her newborn son Liam. (No word on how good, except that one insider sniffs, "I'd be VERY surprised if they went for more than six figures.") What on earth are they thinking? Besides, you know, trying to sell magazines. Which, quite frankly, didn't seem like what one would do if one wanted to sell magazines! But we are, maybe, wrong, as it turns out. More »

Tori Spelling To Join Ranks of Literary Elite
We've always found ourselves with a lot of burning questions about Tori "Dad Cast Me on 90210 And I Am Somehow Still Famous" Spelling's inner life, so it was with joy and satisfaction and not a little bit of relief that we learned we would soon be able to get the answers straight from her horsey mouth. That's right: the So NoTorious star is penning a memoir, to be published in 2008 by Simon "He's Just Not That Into You, And Some Other Books" Spotlight Entertainment. Now, some might disagree with us that Tori has a story to tell, but USA Today begs to differ:As an adult she has weathered a failed marriage, an estrangement from her mother, Candy, and the loss of her father in June, followed by disappointing news in his will."Gee, could the book sale be part of an attempt to recoup those lost millions? Well, according to Tori, she hopes that the book "will do amazing, and we'll all see a lot of profits." However, we see on Publisher's Marketplace that the book sold "in a pre-empt," which often means there was no auction because there was only one house willing to bid. How many diapers/hours of tattooing for Dean McDermott will Tori's advance buy, dear readers? We're guessing not too many, but we'd still like you to tell us.
