● Hillary Duff is pregnant. "We are extremely happy and ready to start this new chapter of our lives," she writes on her website. [Hillary Duff] ● Five died and at least four dozen more were left injured when a stage collapsed at the Indiana State Fair minutes before Sugarland was scheduled to perform. It's being suggested that the tragic accident was due, in part, to strong winds and thunderstorms. [AP/Huff Post] ● Tara Reid got engaged and then, just a few hours later, was married to her Danish businessman boyfriend Michael Lilleund in Greece over the weekend. Now that's a vacation. [People]

Last week, Tara Reid announced in an interview that she would be reviving her role as Bunny Lebowski in a forthcoming Big Lebowski sequel. This news came as a surprise to everyone, including, apparently, the Coen brothers themselves, who have no intention of making said sequel. I'm glad she's working on it," Ethan Coen joked. "We'll watch it when it comes out."

This Lonely Drunk Dialer Listen, we've all been guilty of drunk dialing or texting. How do you think Texts From Last Night became so popular? I can empathize. But Bernadette Music, 43, of Norwood, Ohio went overboard after downing a few too many white wine spritzers at home alone. She dialed 9-1-1 "four or five times" asking dispatchers to help her find luck in love. Maybe 9-1-1 was the only number she knew by heart? She then proceeded to use her apartment complex as a toilet and urinated in the hallway. Music was arrested on counts of disorderly conduct while intoxicated and spent three days in jail. I'm guessing she was too embarrassed to call anyone to bail her out. Major life low point.

Since its inception in 1953, Playboy has been the gift that keeps on giving to men around the world. However, that’s not to say that every Playboy model has been as sizzlingly attractive as Joana Krupa. In fact, sometimes Playboy sets its sights on sad, attention-starved starlets simply for the PR. Take Tara Reid, for example. Her spread will draw in many readers more interested in the train wreck than the scintillation. Similarly, sometimes Playboy snags some real hotties, but only gives us a small slither of nudity pie – not exactly what “readers” are seeking from the magazine. As 2009 draws to a close, we decided now is as appropriate of a time as ever to compile some of Playboy’s worst cover girls in the mag’s history. Of course, for the record, we’d probably still sleep with them all.

● John Mayer brought some Christmas d-bag cheer to the Ellen DeGeneres show, wearing an ironic Christmas sweater and doing an impression of his six-year-old self at Xmas. [JustJared] ● Tara Reid is showing us her dilapidated fun bags in Playboy so we’ll finally stop making fun of them. No such luck. [ET] ● Is Robert Pattinson stepping out on KStew, with co-star Emilie de Ravin? Say it isn’t so! It isn’t so. The duo were seen feigning a romantic date at LACMA for an upcoming shoot for Vogue. [E!]

Playboy inspires me to conduct long, drawn-out conversations with myself. So much so that the other day, I found myself thinking aloud, "Hey! You know who's long overdue for some kind of a comeback?" And I remarked, "Tara Reid!" And blammo! She's crash-landed on the cover of Playboy's January/February issue. "Blammo" may also best describe the fallen starlet's bodacious bust. Regardless, after a couple misfires with that creepy Marge Simpson "shoot" and the creepier Heidi Montag spread, the man mag may finally be edging near some sort of creative rebirth.

● Kanye West can be blamed for a lot of things, but spreading homophobia in hip hop is not one of them. According to Fergie, West is “completely gay-friendly ... he did a great thing for hip-hop and made it very mixed and open." [MTV] ● Robert Pattinson is embarrassed about those Megan Fox dating rumors because the fake details of their date were so “cheesy.” [OK] ● Ashlee Simpson-Wentz is taking a page out of her sister’s handbook and starting a clothing line that will show off her “preppy and punk rock” style because she thinks she can “really succeed in fashion.” [DigitalSpy]

[Dlisted] ●Despite making millions of people laugh in films like Zoolander and Night at the Museum, Ben Stiller doesn’t find himself particularly funny. [Showbizspy]

I'm going to choose to ignore this rumor until HBO exec Sue Naegle gets the news tattooed on her forehead. But in similar news, one of the foremost inspirations for the phrase "hot mess" -- Tara Reid -- has come out proclaiming, "I'm not perfect." The announcement comes not hot on the heels of her long-gone reality opus Taradise, a storied relationship with Carson Daly, or her passionate affair with booze, but in the wake of people lashing out against her post-surgery body. But because it's the season to be giving (well, at least to starlets suckered into unfortunate straight-to-DVD snuff flicks), go boost the has-been's self-esteem by buying this movie about genetically-enhanced snakes.

When not stumbling out of clubs at 2 a.m., Tara Reid's found time to start a fashion line comprised of bikinis and casualwear decorated with trinkets and charms -- appropriate since her last gig was a disastrous run hosting a travel show. What may be surprising is just how much "thought" Reid has put into this endeavor. Dubbed Mantra, eight different varieties of color used in the line are meant to inspire emotion. Reid says, "It's about putting into the universe what you want in life: Red means love, pink is friendship, green is lucky, black is protection."
