Still, she was reportedly having a great time partying and relaxing.

Great that Kylie’s enjoying herself solo — not so great… the news that David and Victoria Beckham may well be starring in their very own reality show, a la ‘The Osbournes’. Cringe.

David might not be super-keen on the idea, but I can’t imagine Victoria turning down the chance. This would be the ideal way for them to become household names in the US, after all.

“At the moment, neither David nor Victoria are very famous in the States,” says a source in People mag, “but starring in their own show on one of America's biggest channels would catapult them to instant stardom.” And isn’t that what we all want?

The tentative title for this truly novel and inspired show is ‘Living with the Beckhams’ and it would reveal the trials and tribulations of their adjustment to life in America. Oh, hold me back.

On to something a little more uplifting — the fact that Jake Gyllenhaal is hot, single and all ready to commit and start a family. Anyone prepared to give him a hand?

Said the ‘Brokeback Mountain’ star to the US version of GQ: “I'm definitely thinking about [kids]... Look, the most important job for a man is to find the right woman. I thank my father for choosing my mother. She's wonderful in so many ways...”

Right, keep talking… “as a father, your job is to pick a caring, smart, mindful woman”. Luckily for Jake, I have a suspicion that smart, mindful women will be lining up for him. Still, I suppose there’s plenty of bubble-headed wannabe chaff to sift through to find a smart woman in Hollywood.

Speaking of the bubble-headed: Britney Spears sure does go to some lengths to show no sign of actually wanting to retain custody of her two boys — giving that there’s a looming battle over them with K-Fed.

Latest is that the poor, misguided popster was seen with little 16-month-old Sean Preston in tow shopping in a store called Trashy Lingerie! Onlookers say Brit bought a special handmade Valentine’s underwear set, as well as a bunch of lingerie for her backing dancers.

Oh, come on, judge, that’s the kind of mother–son outing that’s got ‘parenting skills’ written all over it!

Not that Kev is exactly covering himself in glory. He’s managed to infuriate the National Restaurant Association by starring in an ad that shows him dreaming of becoming a rapper (keep on dreaming) while working in a fast food place. The NRA — not to be confused with that other NRA, the National Rifle Association! — claim this is demeaning to fast food industry workers, showing them in a poor light.

Uh, no, the awful pay, dead-end prospects and exploitation of those workers is what makes McJobs suck. Horror of horrors, I’m actually going to have to side with Kevin on this one.

And, finally, sad to say — it seems that those hoping a newly single Britney would hook up with a newly single Justin Timberlake are having their dreams dashed, by ‘The Illusionist’ star Jessica Biel.

Evidently, Scarlett Johansson was, if anything, just a passing fancy for Justin. He’s been seen at the Sundance Film Fest spending time with Jessica and, says an insider: “Jessica has no reason to be at Sundance.

"She doesn't have a film to promote here, while Justin is in town talking about his new film ‘Black Snake Moan’. She's obviously here for him.”

Biel and Timberlake first set off relationship rumours at that infamous post-Golden Globes party held by Prince. That would be the same one during which Cameron Diaz went up to Justin while he was talking to Jessica, and got into a huge fight with him
