Justin Timberlake is coming under fire for a joke video played at his $6.5 million wedding to Jessica Biel that featured Los Angeles homeless people offering the happy couple well wishes, according to Gawker. The eight-minute video, “Greetings from Your Hollywood Friends Who Just Couldn’t Make It,” was produced by Timberlake friend Justin Huchel, a realtor, and features glassy-eyes and toothless men offering, “Justin and Jessica, I haven’t seen you for a long time. I hope the wedding goes fine for you. My gift is in the mail.” Huchel’s attorney insists it’s all in good fun, telling the Web site, “Mr. Huchel made [the] video to be used and exhibited privately at Justin Timberlake’s wedding as a private joke without Mr. Timberlake’s knowledge.”

New light is being shed on Britney Spears‘ infamous 2007 head-shaving meltdown. Former manager Sam Lufti — who is suing Spears and her family for libel, defamation, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress and breach of contract — claims that the singer had been using hard drugs at the time and was worried a judge might request a test of her hair, possibly leading to her losing custody of her young children, according to the Daily Beast. “She told me she wanted to get clean, but she was struggling with it,” Lufti said on the stand this week. “I told her she needed to do it. I explained to her that society is not going to tolerate a mother with two kids abusing drugs.”

Jessica Simpson‘s parents, Joe and Tina Simpson, are splitting up, with Tina filing for divorce from Joe in Texas last month, citing “discord or conflict of personalities,” according to People magazine. The news comes as the National Enquirer is also reporting that Joe has recently come out of the closet as gay to his family. “It is an amicable split and there is no third party involved,” a rep for the couple says. “Any other related allegations are completely false.” But amicable might not be the right word. In his response to the divorce filing, Joe reportedly requests that Tina get nothing in the split.

It looks like Bobby Brown’s rehab stint in August didn’t take, as the troubled singer was arrested for driving under the influence near Los Angeles this week, according to CNN. This is Brown’s second DUI arrest this year. Police on the scene reportedly detected “a strong scent of alcohol” on Brown and conducted a sobriety test. He was later released on bond. Brown’s stay in rehab over the summer was part of an agreement following his March arrest for driving while intoxicated.

“It’s great to be married, the ceremony was beautiful and it was so special to be surrounded by our family and friends,” the couple told the U.S. celebrity magazine in an exclusive statement.

People said it would carry full details of the wedding, including exclusive photos, in next week’s edition.

“Sexy Back” singer and actor Timberlake, 31, and “Total Recall” actress Biel, 30, have been dating on and off since 2007. They announced their engagement at the beginning of 2012, and carefully shielded the details of their nuptials from the public.

The pair have been in southern Italy for much of the week, partying with friends and wedding guests on a beach before exchanging vows. It was not immediately clear on which day the ceremony took place.

Timberlake has previously had high-profile relationships with pop singer Britney Spears and actress Cameron Diaz.

Tennessee native Timberlake, who rose to fame in the boy band N’Sync, forged a successful solo music career before moving into films. He played Napster founder, Sean Parker, in the Oscar-nominated Facebook film, “The Social Network” and more recently starred alongside Amy Adams and Clint Eastwood in “Trouble With The Curve.”

Biel, who was born in Minnesota, started her career on U.S. television in the long-running family drama “7th Heaven.” She broke into movies with a starring role in the 2003 remake of horror flick “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” and has since been seen in “The A-Team” and “New Year’s Eve.”

Did Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel pull a fast one on Hollywood and sneak off to tie the knot this past weekend? At least one gossip columnist says yes. Janet Charlton reports on her blog that the engaged stars were in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, this weekend — the site of Timberlake’s proposal to Biel last December — for a rehearsal dinner Friday night followed by the wedding itself Saturday at a private estate. Their quests were staying at the Four Seasons resort nearby, according to Charlton’s source.

Speaking of secret weddings, Justin Theroux spurred speculation that he and Jennifer Aniston had already sealed the deal when he was spotted walking around New York City this weekend sporting a ring on his left hand, according to E! Online. Of course, he and Aniston have only been engaged a week, and she’s off in North Carolina shooting a movie — and hasn’t even unveiled her engagement ring yet. Plus, the ring Theroux was wearing — a large, gold item with lettering on it — didn’t look very much like a traditional wedding band. Maybe he was just trying to make it clear that he’s off the market.

With the London Olympics behind him, Prince Harry headed back to Las Vegas this weekend for some fun and relaxation, according to People magazine. The royal bachelor was able to enjoy himself at the MGM Grand’s poolside venue Wet Republic without drawing too much attention thanks to the presence of Jennifer Lopez, who was throwing a party a few bungalows away. He didn’t go entirely unnoticed, of course. “A few groups of women approached him throughout the day and he talked to them briefly, but he didn’t really center his attention on anyone,” a source says. “He definitely loved the attention, but he looked to be a gentleman with all the women.”

Katie Couric says she gets “total child list when I see little kids” because she’s starting to regret not having more children. “Sometimes I think I should have had six kids. Or I wish I’d had one [more] at 37, but I was busy. My career,” the 55-year-old mother of two tells Good Housekeeping. “I think emotionally and psychologically, it’s weird to feel like, ‘Gosh, my childbearing years are over.’ And of course they’ve been over for a long time, but still, they’re officially over now. It’s kind of a head trip, to tell you the truth.”

David and Victoria Beckham may be adjusting to having a fourth child with 7-month-old daughter Harper, but that doesn’t mean they’re necessarily done procreating. “We might have one more or two more, you never know,” David says, according to Hollyscoop. “We’re not thinking about it yet, but if it happens, great. We’re enjoying the kids as it is. It’s always a thought.” And Victoria, who has complained recently about being exhausted from work and having a newborn, is still up for more: “I’m not against having more children. I feel lucky having the kids I have and I guess I do like being pregnant,” she says. “But definitely not just yet.”

Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are trying to keep their engagement quiet, but the senior citizens in their lives aren’t really helping. First, Timberlake’s grandmother spilled the beans about the singer’s proposal, and now Biel’s “New Year’s Eve” director, Garry Marshall, is gushing about their renewed romance. “We talk about it a lot. I hope it all works out. They are terrific kids,” Marshall tells Us Weekly. “I love them both. I’m happy for her.”

Uma Thurman is expecting a baby with financier Arpad Busson, her rep confirms to People magazine. And while the actress wasn’t necessarily ready to talk about her pregnancy, her friends were more than happy to. “Yes, Uma is pregnant,” a Thurman pal tells Life & Style. “She hasn’t announced it yet, but a lot of her friends were asking her, because they could tell the difference when they saw her at New York Fashion Week. She’s usually so skinny, but now she has the cutest little bump and a glow about her.” Thurman also has two children with ex-husband Ethan Hawke.

While Blue Ivy Carter is just 7 weeks old, some of the adults in her life already have a career picked out for her. “She is going to be an entertainer,” Gwyneth Paltrow, who is pals with parents Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z, tells Hollywood Life. “She just has this glow around her like her mother. She’s stunning. She has the most beautiful eyes.”

“Blade Runner” and “Ace Ventura: Pet Detective” star Sean Young was arrested after trying to sneak into the post-Oscars Governer’s Ball Sunday night, according to TMZ. The actress, who recently appeared on “Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew,” made it into the party initially and hobnobbed with the likes of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie before being asked to leave, as she didn’t have a ticket for the event. Sources say she then tried to get back into the party, leading to an altercation with security personnel. Young was booked on a misdemeanor battery charge.

The couple has a long history of breakups and makeups, but they’ve recently been spotted out together and it wasn’t long ago that rumors of an engagement began circulating.

Timberlake, 30, reportedly proposed to Biel, 29, in the mountains of Jackson, Wyoming in a nod to her love of the great outdoors.

“Justin knows how much she loves snowboarding and the mountains, so it was the perfect place,” an insider told Us Weekly.

The couple called it quits for about three months in 2011, but obviously decided to take things to the next level when they reunited.

“He knew it was the right time to propose,” another source close to Timberlake told the magazine.

But Kutcher’s pair of cheating scandals — including his reported tryst with a young woman during his and Moore’s sixth anniversary — were apparently too much for Moore, who filed for divorce late last week.

What PR person leaked that crazy information? Because, yeah, everyone knows so many marriages are broken up because the wife is hot, likes threesomes and is “cool” with outside arrangements. What horror that must have been for Kutcher! How he survived, I have no idea.

Biel plays mind tricks with us

Jessica Biel admits she keeps losing out on film roles to Anne Hathaway, with two recent instances that were particularly hard to take. First, there’s the role of Catwoman in Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight Rises,” for which Biel hoped to audition. “[That was] another one that got away. I was gutted,” she tells Elle. But that’s not all: “I felt terrified when I auditioned for ‘Les Miserables,’ the movie that Tom Hooper is doing,” she says. “I was terrified to sing in front of him. I auditioned for Fantine and I sang ‘I Dreamed a Dream.’ I didn’t get it. And I would have loved it.” Hathaway eventually won that role as well.

This is strange. Why in the world would Biel admit publicly that she is always losing out on roles — unless she wants people to think she’s actually the same caliber as Anne Hathaway? Which, no, she’s not. I might give her Katherine Heigl-level, but even that’s a stretch.

While Jessica Biel has been spotted out and about with ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake, spurring plenty of reconciliation rumors, that doesn’t mean the actress is ready to spill the beans. “A girl doesn’t kiss and tell,” she says to Elle magazine when pressed on the topic. But with Timberlake now establishing himself on screen, she’s more than happy to talk about the propensity to date fellow actors. “I think those are the people you meet and so it just kind of happens,” says Biel. “Let me tell you: It never happens on purpose.”
 
Gaga and Kinney: It’s on!

Lady Gaga reportedly had so much fun making out with “Vampire Diaries” star Taylor Kinney during the shoot for her “You and I” video that she’s reportedly decided to keep it going off-camera as well, according to Us Weekly. “They’re hooking up and getting to know each other,” a source says. But while they are enjoying each other’s company, it’s not serious.
 
Richards reignites old flame

Denise Richards has reportedly rekindled her romance with Richie Sambora, according to Us Weekly. “They’ve always stayed friends, through everything they’ve gone through,” a source says. “He’s had a rough patch, she’s had her own stuff, but they’re both in a great place right now.” The pair dated in 2006 after she split from Charlie Sheen and he divorced Heather Locklear, but the relationship only lasted about a year. Now the pair are said to be “doing great and happy.”

Rogan got hitched

Seth Rogan celebrated the release of his new film, “50/50,” by marrying his longtime girlfriend, writer Lauren Miller, at Kunde Estate in Sonoma, Calif., according to Us Weekly. “The wedding was more laughs than anything else,” a source says of the three-day celebration. “Every other line was a joke and the crowd couldn’t contain their laughter. It was nonstop fun!” That’s not surprising, given that the guest list included Judd Apatow and his wife, Leslie Mann, as well as Jonah Hill, Paul Rudd and “The Office” star Craig Robinson.

Arquette moves on

A year after his split from estranged wife Courteney Cox, David Arquette has found someone new. The current “Dancing with the Stars” contestant is dating Christina McLarty, who was previously married to “Girls Gone Wild” impresario Joe Francis, according to People. “I’m not one to run around with different girls,” Arquette told Howard Stern. “I like someone that makes me feel good and that I can make feel good.”

While Leonardo DiCaprio may have been filming in Australia during rumored girlfriend Blake Lively’s birthday — she celebrated with pals in New York — he was at least on hand last month for her father’s big day in Los Angeles, where he reportedly gifted the senior Lively with an elaborate coloring book, according to Us Weekly. “Blake’s father loved it,” a source says, adding that the alleged couple are getting pretty cozy and “are so smitten it’s crazy.

Madonna vs. Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga has made it clear that she’s possibly Madonna’s biggest fan, but the same apparently can’t be said for Madge’s feelings about “Mother Monster.” “As for Lady Gaga, I have no comment to make about her obsessions having to do with me because I don’t know whether her behavior is rooted in something deep and meaningful or superficial,” Madonna tells French newspaper Le Soir. Her rep has tried to smooth things over,  telling E! News, “I do know that [Madonna] has said many supportive things about Gaga over the years.”

Hannigan: Not pregnant

Alyson Hannigan took to Twitter to clear up pregnancy rumors after a photo where she appeared to be sporting a baby bump popped up online. “No, I’m not pregnant! I just ate too much carnival food, that time of the month, hurt my back and couldn’t suck my gut in — and need to do cardio,” the star posted in response.

Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake put an end to their relationship back in March, but now there’s speculation that their breakup might not stick, according to Hollyscoop. Biel and Timberlake were spotted recently sharing brunch and a leisurely bike ride in Toronto, where Biel is currently filming. “They were in good spirits,” an eyewitness says. “They seemed happy. They had brunch together. They were talking. They enjoyed their food. They had a nice time.” But even if the pair are rekindling their flame, don’t expect Timberlake to get too talkative about it. “In my 30 years, she is the most special person,” he told Vanity Fair in June. “I don’t want to say much more, because I have to protect things that are dear to me — for instance, her.”

Baby time for Weisz?

Newlyweds Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig haven’t ruled out adding a baby to their household, but the motivation has to be right, Weisz tells Lucky magazine. “Oh, I wouldn’t make [a baby] just for the sake of giving my son a sibling,” she says. “But you never know.” Weisz has a 5-year-old son, Henry, from her relationship with Darren Aronofsky, while Craig has a 19-year-old daughter, Ella, from a previous marriage.
