Amy Winehouse is allegedly addicted to a new substance that makes your teeth fall out. No, it's not meth! It's candy. "The troubled singer has bought a pink candy floss maker, a £1,000 Slush Puppy machine and an old-fashioned sweet counter with jars of boiled sweets to decorate her Camden home," the Daily Mail reports. • Thank Jebus that Abigail Breslin still sounds like a normal, sweet girl. She says her acting idol is Meryl Streep, her favorite movie is the Devil Wears Prada, working with Cameron Diaz was "really nice" and her biggest influences are "My brothers, my parents, my whole family." • An ex-Scientologist in Florida is suing Tom Cruise and the Church of Scientology for $265 million. According to Fishbowl LA Peter Letterese "claimed that Cruise and Scientology bribed and improperly influenced a federal judge, a Florida state judge and a federal bankruptcy trustee to tie up his original law suit [also against the religion] in bankruptcy court."

Kit Kittredge: American Girl Or Capitalist Pawn? Is There A Difference?
It's hard out there for a living, breathing American girl. It's a morass of mixed messages, A.O. Scott points out in a Times think piece about Kit Kittredge, the Abigail Breslin-helmed American Girl doll-based movie coming out this week. "Who are you supposed to be, or to avoid becoming? A nerd? A ditz? A flirt? A tomboy?" Scott wonders. "What kind of role models are those make-believe princesses, those Bratz and Barbies, to say nothing of the real-life Britneys, Lindsays and Mileys? Mean Girls, Gossip Girls, Girls Gone Wild, Girl Power, You go, girl! What's a girl to do?" And considering the pervasive skankiness of Bratz and their ilk, the American Girls franchise seems like a bastion of true childhood in an increasingly sexualized marketplace. But, as Scott painstakingly notes, it's still part of the marketplace. Jeannette Catsoulis, reviewing Kit for the IHT perfectly summarizes the intrinsic hypocrisy in this Depression-era film. "When you consider that a Kit doll, complete with book and accessories, will currently run you $105, the movie's insistence on the nobility of the indigent might be a tad more difficult to stomach."

Some Fashions At The Kids' Choice Awards Were Surprisingly Childish
Saturday night brought one of the events that, in my youth, I anticipated as anxiously as the winter holidays: The Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards. Lots of celebs! Lots of slime! Jack Black hosted the frenetically-paced activities and lots of celebrities brought the pretty. See: America Ferrera, left. Does she ever look bad? I also like how she played the pretty dress all casual with the wooden wedges, but that's neither here nor there. Also in attendance: Abigail Breslin, Cameron Diaz, Jordin Sparks, Jodie Foster, Amy Poehler, Ashlee Simpson, Hayden Panettiere, Rihanna and Miley Cyrus, who is looking less like a tween of late and more and more like a 50-something who's spent too much time in the tanning booth. Miley, and the other Good, Bad and Ugly, after the jump. More » -

The ShoWest Awards Had Some Tickety-Tacky Hot Tranny Messes
ShoWest is the trade show for the movie theatre industry. And because movie stars can't be movie stars unless they star in movies that get played in movie theatres, well, they need to show the ShoWest distributors a little love. In attendance at the trade show's awards ceremony last night? A series of big and small screen celebrities, including Sarah Jessica Parker, Abigail Breslin, Jodie Foster, Anne Hathaway, Kate Bosworth, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Christina Ricci, America Ferrera and Alexis Bledel (left). After the jump, the Good, the Bad and the Ugly of the ShoWest Awards. More » -

Reader Roundup
Best Comment of the Day, in response to Photoshop Of Horrors: "The pants just don't add up to her waist...I'm so confused. It makes it seem like she's got a vagina that goes to the left to the left." We say: put everything you own in Hayden's box to the left. • Worst, in response to Dear Abigail Breslin: Don't Ever Change: "Abigail is a slut." We say: we can't even believe we're dignifying this with a response. She's eleven. More » -

Has Lohan fallen off the wagon? She's been spotted out clubbing again, though she's pictured sporting the ubiquitous water bottle. • Dakota Fanning dropped out of the Nick Cassavetes movie she had been slated to star in. The film, My Sister's Keeper, is about a girl who sues for emancipation from her parents after she learns that they only had her to give her sister a kidney or whatever. Dakota has been replaced by Abigail Breslin. • Despite rumors to the contrary, Fergie's mom says she's not at all pregnant. Her mama told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show, "Did you see her on the Grammys? Skinny, skinny, skinny!" All this pregnancy speculation has got to stop! Bitch probably just ate a burger or something! Leave 'er alone. [TMZ, Dlisted, Us] -

Martha Stewart Hates 'Fat' Girls
Martha Stewart had Little Miss Sunshine star Abigail Breslin on her show today for a segment in which the pair baked cookies and made ice cream floats. And we're hearing that, in the midst of all this caloric fun, Martha had the balls to tell the 11-year-old actress that she's "pleasantly plump" and then later asked her if she'd eaten too many "cheeseburgers on the road." This poor fucking little girl! I mean, I know that she's gonna have to deal with these issues as a woman, even more so as a female in Hollywood, but seriously, she's only eleven! Let's refrain from giving her an eating disorder at least until she gets her period! More » -
