Bill and Hillary Clinton seem like the kind of couple who listen exclusively to jazz. I picture Bill smiling away as the sax hits a high note and Hillary just sort of dealing with it, her face a blank, expressionless void. But maybe that's just me, and apparently I am wrong. Billary are big Gaga fans. The couple, along with Chelsea, were beaming last night when the Mother Monster took the stage for the former President's belated b-day bash "A Decade of Difference: A Concert Celebrating 10 Years of the William J. Clinton Foundation" in LA, despite some sexy strutting and the F-bomb.

Hillary Clinton might have entered politics first, but Sarah Palin beat her to a milestone far more important to the American people. With Who's Nailin’ Paylin - Hustler Video’s unauthorized 2008 porno spoof in which Lisa Ann, playing Palin, larks about with Russians and explores the Big Bang Theory - the former Alaska governor and one-time vice presidential candidate became the first prominent female politician to become the title character in a skin flick. But Hillary's not great at losing, so perhaps she'll be secretly pleased that her, uh, doppelgänger, will be starring in an unauthorized porno as well, courtesy of one of the current secretary of state's former interns, Sammie Spades.

The Special Relationship, a film about the ties that bound former US President Bill Clinton to former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, first aired on HBO last May. Michael Sheen played Blair, Dennis Quaid played Slick Willie, and Hope Davis was his wife, Hillary. But before Davis was cast in the role, recent BlackBook cover girl Julianne Moore was meant to portray the onetime First Lady.

● Mike Huckabee thinks Natalie Portman is sending the wrong message by showing up to the Oscars "visibly pregnant" and without a ring. "I think it gives a distorted image," he told conservative radio host Michael Medvedev. "It's unfortunate that we glorify and glamorize the idea of out-of-wedlock children." [MediaMatters] ● Major news organizations are busy scribing their Charlie Sheen obituaries. Not because they think he's going to die, per say, but because they know from experience just how dangerous winning can be. Is your tigerblood farewell toast ready yet? [PopEater] ● American interest in Al Jazeera is up in recent months, with state-side viewers turning to the Qatar network for updates. Hillary Clinton has boldly suggested that Al Jazeera is gaining prominence because it offers "real news" while our news is "not particularly informative to us, let alone foreigners." [ABC]

New York Knicks fans showed Justin Bieber their true colors last night, booing the 16-year-old pop star when his image graced Madison Square Garden's JumboTron. For Bieber fans, it must have been a shocking, WTF moment. But for everyone else, it was solid, clean fun. Who doesn't enjoy watching someone who's used to the adulation of millions try and smile through the humiliation of a mass public rejection? We sure do, whether they deserve it or not. In fact, we love it so much that we'd like you to join us as we relive the five best instances of famous people facing the wrath of an anonymous crowd.

According to Page Six, Richard Gere's Bedford Post Inn is on the cusp of falling apart. After losing Chris Tunnah, general manager of the Farmhouse restaurant, last year, they said bye bye to Chris Broburg, who's now pastry chef for The Four Seasons. The latest to jump ship is executive chef Brian Lewis. The Post speculates that Bedford resident Martha Stewart might be a candidate for take over, but the one-woman powerhouse denies any interest. After the jump, Bedford residents and neighbors of the Inn who could also serve as fitting proprietors.

Now that President Obama's completed the first year of his presidency with far-from-flying colors, it's hardly a surprise that one of his biggest supporters from the fall of November 2008 may be defecting. Turns out that Oprah could be switching teams to back one of Obama's formidable opponents for a 2012 bid at the White House. As is par for the course with juicy stories about People We Love and Respect like Lady Clinton and Oprah, actual hard facts are in short supply. So we must make do with anecdotal evidence provided by sources inside the White House (Monica Lewinsky, is that you? Go back to designing handbags in your squalid studio on Gallery Place!)

It's not every day that an American fashion brand gets endorsed by the US government; and I'm not talking about Michelle Obama's various sartorial selections. In Washington there is such a thing as the Award for Corporate Excellence. Companies from around the globe including household names like Chevron and Marriott to Cisco Systems and Cummins essentially compete -- although it's a win-win situation here -- for an ACE award, which is granted "annually to U.S.-owned businesses that exhibit good corporate citizenship, promote innovation, and advance democratic principles around the world." And this year Tom's Shoes is the lucky recipient of the honor -- one presented by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton herself.

We all knew that something like this would happen once Hillary Clinton got promoted and hopped on the Chinatown express bus to DC. Leave it to Fran Drescher, the star of Razzie-nominated tour-de-farces like The Beautician and the Beast, to be the first (and the loudest) candidate in what will probably be a frenzied race for Hillary's vacated Senate seat. Drescher's smart, though. She announced her bid yesterday, catching would-be objectors off-guard.

Of course there was bound to some scandal as our dashing President-Elect assembled his White House dream team. This morning, as Barack Obama named the equally dashing Hillary Clinton as his Secretary of State, her husband (and our 42nd President) was MIA. But in all fairness, his absence was announced nearly an hour in advance of his wife's nomination, and he already vouched for her well before. Whether he was missing because he had gone through this whole dog-and-pony show before, or because he was out shopping for a marked-down recession-friendly Christmas gift remains to be seen.
