The Justin Files, 6/6 Weekly Wrap Up

ET Gets Duped
So we wrapped up last week with the "exclusive" scoop from Entertainment Tonight that Angelina Jolie had given birth to her twins. Other media outlets quickly questioned the validity of the story, but ET stuck with it. They had apparently exchanged emails with Angie's "personal assistant", and that's how they got the news. Well, it turns out that it wasn't her assistant at all, it was a fake. ET never formally retracted the story, but it was quietly taken off their webpage. So how did this happen? Apparently producers were cautioned that the story could be a fake, but they decided to run with it anyway...live and learn!

Speaking of Angie and Brad's still forthcoming kids...the bidding war for the exclusive first photos has allegedly reached $15 million.

Hey, at least they didn't just turn it inside out and reuse it
There was a little behind the scenes scandal at the premiere of the Sex and the City movie in New York recently. Apparently the flowing silver dress that Sarah Jessica Parker wore had been...horrors...warn before! Word has it that a socialite had worn the same frock to a ball at The Met a month ago, and it was passed off to SJP as a new fashion. The actress called the revelation, "disappointing".



Quick Hits
* If you missed your chance to get tickets to Madonna's now sold out shows at MSG in October (6, 7, 11), she's added a fourth show on the 12th. Tickets go on sale next Friday.

* The Daily News is suggesting that Ashlee Simpson is expecting a boy. They're basing this on the fact that she was seen buying a onesie that said, "I'm just like my dad!". If you ask me, this doesn't mean a thing, have you ever noticed how much eye liner Pete Wentz wears?

* Grey's Anatomy star TR Knight, 35, has been fielding a lot of questions about his new, 19 year old boyfriend recently. Although he's answered the marriage question with, "we've only known each other for six months. So I think it's a little soon to consider marriage". Besides, TR would prefer not to have to use sparkling apple cider at the ceremony.

* David Archuleta has signed his first deal and joins David Cook on 19 Recordings/Jive Records. He also had to cancel a thank-you concert that his father had promised his home town of Salt Lake City . The American Idol producers cited his obligation to the Idols Live tour as the reason for forcing him to renege.
