Happy April!

Lauren Conrad was spotted on this weekend's ET on MTV, talking about The Hills and saying, "Don't know, don't care" to the Kristin Cavallari-Nick Lachey rumors. Ouch. You can catch it again when it airs at 9:30am EST tomorrow. [Photo courtesy of Laguna Beach Online]

Nicole Richie is joining in on the leagues of female celebrities who have clothing lines and perfume lines. I don't know how much truth this report has, since it is said that her line will be called "That's Hot!" ... which is so not hot, considering ... doesn't Paris Hilton own the rights to that phrase? More reasons for Paris to eternally hate Nicole, huh? The line will feature "contemporary knits and tank tops with embroidery and appliqué" and will range from $28 to $40. The line is said to debut on October 11th at Intuition.

Then again, it could be a joke. It is April Fool's Day, after all.

What do Pink, Lindsay Lohan, Zooey Deschanel, Scarlett Johansson and Britney Spears all want? The role of Janis Joplin in the upcoming biopic The Gospel According to Janis, to be directed by Penelope Spheeris. Spheeris has admitted that "[Pink] would be my first choice, but she may have scheduling conflicts." But she didn't have such nice things to say about Britney: "Her agent asked if I could meet with her. Music ability is important, but most of all, the actress must have the spirit of Janis." Though she added, "Each of the actresses who has expressed interest in the role [would] bring her own special talents to eh part." The film will begin shooting in September and will "go head-to-head with another movie on Joplin, Pieces of My Heart, starring Renee Zellweger. Uh oh. Well, if it makes any difference, my vote goes to Zooey Deschanel.

Amazon.com has revealed the release date for Paris Hilton's upcoming album, titled Turn It Up. Everyone, prepare yourself.

And for those fans of Nickelodeon's Drake Bell, he is making a full recovery following his serious car accident last year. He has returned to work, but keeps his sense of humor over the arduousness of recovering in the latest issue of People: When I woke up [from neck surgery] ... my [stitched-up gash] looked like someone took a live caterpillar and stuck it on my chin. [Costar Josh Peck] was like, "You're still better looking than me, man." Josh was bringing me smoothies every day ... I couldn't shave, so I had a full-on, Paul McCartney, pull-on-it beard. I dug it. Milkshakes and smoothies were my breakfast, lunch and dinner. I lost a ton of weight, from 147 lbs to 121 lbs. Now I'm 130 lbs. We tried putting pizza in a blender, but it smelled like vomit. Doctors said, "All you have to do it put hamburger meat, beef broth and ketchup in a blender. It tastes like a burger." Dude, it doesn't.

Hilary Duff and sister Haylie's film Material Girls may never see the day of light. The film, which wrapped sometime last summer, has been having trouble finding a distributor. The film is about two wealthy sisters -- heiresses to their family's cosmetics fortune -- who lose their money and fight to get it back. The cover of "Material Girl" Hilary did with Lil' Jon to accompany the film may also never be released.

Yeah. Disney finally got its revenge on Hilary this month with the release of Cow Belles, a story about two dairy heiresses who lose their money and then fight to get it back. It stars real-life sisters Alyson (Aly) and Amanda (AJ) Michalka.

Mandy Moore's past has come to rebut ex-boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama's claim about having taken her virginity. In 2002, she did an interview with Art & Understanding, "America's AIDS Magazine," which said that "Moore candidly reveals that she and Wilmer never had sex. 'I'm not an advocate for having sex or not having sex. It's a personal decision. Whenever you feel ready, you're ready. Wilmer is older than me, respected me, and so it just wasn't an issue.'" But there have been those random times Wilmer was spotted with Mandy following his breakup with Lindsay Lohan, so who really knows ...

I'm going to be gone for a little over a week, so everyone have a wonderful week-and-a-bit. Enjoy the beautiful weather!
