Brad Pitt who thankfully grew his mustache into a full goatee, was spotted riding around LA yesterday on one of his many motorcycles. In his W Magazine cover interview, Brad refers to the time when he's on his bikes as his most anonymous calling himself, “just another a--hole on the streets,” but it was his comments about Angelina and Jennifer that caught everyone's attention yesterday. He played it well, though of course there's a million ways to dissect his words, so we'll see whether he and Angelina have any uncomfortable moments sprung on them at tonight's Critics Choice Awards or Sunday's Golden Globes.

Just think, one year ago at tonight's awards we started to speculate about whether or not Angelina was pregnant and today's another big one — it's Zahara's 4th Birthday! Hopefully she gets some good celebrating in before mom and dad are off to hit the red carpet this evening.

Amidst reports that she and girlfriend Samantha Ronson are history, Lindsay Lohan took to the racks of Burberry to drown her sorrows in some new duds.

The “Mean Girls” gal donned a Pink Floyd t-shirt and black flair-legged trousers as she perused the apparel possibilities, and appeared annoyed at the swarming shutterbugs.

In a recent interview with Interview magazine, LiLo confessed that while she’s become notorious for her off-screen behavior, she’s always wanted people to focus on her acting talent.

“I just feel as though it’s become a situation where people have manifested this caricature of who I am, and they act as if there’s no real person inside of it. I mean, people really have come to believe-directors, producers, agents, whoever it may be-that I started in this because I wanted to be a celebrity. But that was never my intention.”

Was there any doubt that fans would remember 2008 as the year of the Caped Crusader and his gnarliest nemesis yet?

The Dark Knight went five for five and was named Favorite Movie at the 35th Annual People's Choice Awards, which returned to its usual star-studdedness Wednesday after an '08 broadcast held at the height of the actor-supported Hollywood writers' strike.

The serious Oscar contender was also rewarded for its awesomeness with honors for Favorite Cast, Action Movie and Onscreen Matchup, which spotlighted Christian Bale and Heath Ledger. Bale was also deemed the year's Favorite Superhero.

"Thank you very, very much," said Bale, flanked by Aaron Eckhart and director Christopher Nolan, upon accepting the evening's top award. "And on behalf of all of the cast from the movie, thank you very much to the fans. Here's to Heath, thank you."

Also indicating the people's enjoyment of a good walk on the dark side in '08 was their choice for Favorite TV Drama, House.

"I have no idea who these people are," a tuxedo-clad Hugh Laurie, surrounded by castmates and crew, said in accepting the honor. "This is just a small representative sample of the many, what, 200 or so, people who work so hard to make the show House. They couldn't be here, because this is all the tuxedos we've got."

Laurie also had a chance to make his feelings about the people—"Really, I'm in favor of them"—known when he won for Favorite Male TV Star earlier in the evening.

Samantha Who? star Christina Applegate, in accepting the female counterpart of that award, thanked her many fans for their support during her recent battle against breast cancer. "It didn't go unnoticed, thank you," she said.

Queen Latifah, apparently not burned out by last year's celebrityless awards show, returned as host of the event at Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium and later helped accept the award for Favorite Movie, Drama, with some of her Secret Life of Bees costars.

The honoring kicked off with an only-in-L.A. moment, as Ellen DeGeneres stepped in to present the award for Favorite Funny Male Star (to Adam Sandler) in place of a tardy Kate Hudson.

"She's in traffic, she's 40 minutes away, so...let's wait," DeGeneres deadpanned. "That's no way to sell a movie, Kate."

The pertinent zingers continued a few minutes later as she accepted the award for Favorite Talk Show Host.

"And to my roommate, Portia, thank you very much, as well," the no-longer-legally-married DeGeneres said in wrapping up her acceptance speech, referencing the passage of Proposition 8 in November.

While only a relative handful of the more than 40 categories were addressed during the two-hour broadcast, the purely fan-driven kudosfest honored the heck out of the stars who showed.

Among those on hand to grab their heavy little trophies were Carrie Underwood, the most-winning individual of the night with three awards, including top female singer, Favorite Star 35 & Under and best country song for "Last Name"; Favorite Female Movie Star Reese Witherspoon; Robin Williams, who won Favorite Scene-Stealing Guest Star for his murderous turn on Law & Order: SVU yet still failed to capture the win for most annoying use of accents; and Kid Rock, who toted the Favorite Rock Song award home for "All Summer Long."

And lucky for her, Hudson arrived in time to accept the award for Favorite Leading Lady from Gavin Rossdale and wish her son, Ryder, who turned 5 today, a happy birthday.

Out all by her lonesome, Lindsay Lohan was spotted doing some retail therapy at the Burberry boutique in Beverly Hills, California earlier today (January 7th).

The “I Know Who Killed Me” actress looked a bit glum as she meandered down the street, sporting a black jacket, white top, grey trousers, and black heels.

And according to TMZ we’ll be seeing much more of LiLo going solo, as she’s reportedly moved out of Samantha Ronson's house following an official breakup.

According to the report, Lindsay is now staying with her manager Jen while she tries to work things out with her now-ex-girlfriend. However, the way these two go back and forth, it’s very likely they’ll get back together before too long.

With girlfriend Lindsay Lohan nowhere to be seen, the British DJ darling busily texted on her cell phone with an amused look on her face as paparazzi slowly but surely gathered around.

As for her work schedule, Miss Ronson is currently enjoying a break in the action from her deejaying duties.

A little over a week from today, Samantha is scheduled to get back down to business, as she has shows booked at Deko Lounge in South Amboy, New Jersey on January 15th followed by back-to-back gigs on the east coast the following weekend.

From there, the 31-year-old will be returning to sunny Florida - this time making her way to Tampa for a private ESPN Super Bowl Party on January 30.
