I didn't think it was possible, but David Beckham has proved himself to be even more perfect than I already thought. According to Celebrity Cowboy, David showed up backstage on the opening night of the Spice Girls tour and gave each member a diamond-encrusted bracelet. Who doesn't want a guy who cares about her friends (and showers her with diamonds)? Victoria Beckham is one lucky woman!

Britney was "this close" to being replaced last week, says Page Six. Although the pop star originally refused to show up for a $500,000 video shoot for her upcoming single, she changed her mind when she found out that Jive Records had Samantha Jade on call to shoot for her own single if Britney didn't show. Britney came in 12 hours late.... Better late than never, I guess?

Jeanne Carmen, a friend of Marilyn Monroe, is in the works of creating her biopic, The Wild, Wild Life of Jeanne Carmen, and she's trying to find the actress to play Marilyn. Christina Aguilera considered the role before she got pregnant, says Dlisted. The script is currently with the agents of Scarlett Johansson and Kate Bosworth. I think Scarlett would make a good Marilyn — what do you think?
