A Miley Cyrus styled sex doll is flying off the store shelves. The doll, named "Finally Mylie" from Pipedream Products has reportedly become such a hot ticket item that stores can't keep it in stock. While the doll, which comes with "3 achey love holes," hasn't caused a legal battle yet, Pipedream is preparing for a backlash.  While Miley may not be happy about the doll, at least she's in good
company.  Others immortalized in latex have been Beyonce, Kim Kardashian, Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Sarah Jessica Parker, Lindsay Lohan, Christina Aguilera, Paris Hilton and Jessica Simpson.

Kevin Federline and girlfriend Victoria Price have discovered they are going to have a baby girl.  The couple say they will name the child, Jordan.

Angelina Jolie has a new tattoo. The actress was spotted in Tusinia with a new set of coordinates added to her arm, which denotes each of her six children's birth places.  While the Pitt family denies they are adding another child some believe the new coordinates are those of Brad's birthplace in Oklahoma.

Sean Parker, founding president of Facebook has proposed to his girlfriend, Alexandra Lenas. In addition to Facebook, Parker is the co-founder of Napster, Plaxo and Causes.  Parker was upset by the movie, "Social Network" that depicted the birth of Facebook, calling it a "complete work of fiction".  According to sources, Parker and Lenas have been together for only six months.  One word for you, buddy....PRE-NUP!

While some are wondering when Katie Couric will leave the "CBS Evening News," word is now that Meredith Vieira is looking to leave NBC's morning show when her contract ends in September. She replaced Couric in 2006 and helped "Today" keep its No. 1 ranking among the network morning-news shows.  Viera says she's tired of the early pre-dawn schedule  and wants to spend more time with her husband, who has battled cancer and multiple sclerosis in recent years.  Reportedly, NBC is doing everything they can to convince her to stay. If she does leave, perhaps she'll be replaced by Katie Couric since she'll be looking for a job.

Charlie Sheen, with a company called, Hyro-gliff, have filed trademark applications for 22 of Charlie's catch phrases, including  "Duh, Winning," "Vatican Assassin," "Tiger Blood" and "Rock Star From Mars." The trademark protection has been sought for everything from bras, drinks, electronic games, candy and even gambling machines. Records show the trademark applications were filed between March 19th and 22nd. The company also seeks to trademark Sheen's
name and signature, and his nicknames for his home, "Sober Valley Lodge," and his girlfriends, "Sheen's Goddesses."

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is about to get the tabloid documentary treatment from E!. True Hollywood Story: Sarah Palin is set to air April 24th. This week’s THS, airing tonight, is all about Charlie Sheen. The title is, "Warlocks and Winning and Tiger’s Blood, Oh My!"

Lauren Conrad, whose debut teen novel, "L.A. Candy", hit No. 1 on a New York Times bestseller list, just scored another three-book deal with publisher, HarperCollins. Conrad is taking Madison Parker, the mean girl character from the L.A. Candy book and is spinning her off into becoming her own star, searching for fame....complete with backstabbing family friends, the every present paparazzi and one media scandal after the other.  The paperback edition of Conrad's third L.A. Candy book, Sugar and Spice, goes on sale Tuesday.

Kirstie Alley headed to Wilcox Tattoo after Monday night's "Dancing With The Stars" show to get her first tattoo.  She had the word, "Unbroken" ink'd onto her wrist.

Ty Pennington, host of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" has signed on to host "The Great Big American Auction"... Think of it as a contemporary Antiques Roadshow.  This show will feature personal treasures with a historic, artist or pop culture bent, all being auctioned off to the highest bidder. For example: A near-mint copy of Amazing Spider-Man #1; a ring once owned by Elvis Presley; and an autographed Les Paul guitar being auctioned off to benefit Cystic Fibrosis
research.
