A rep for the funny big screen star said Faris, 31, became engaged to Pratt, 29, toward the end of 2008.

"They got engaged late last year," says the rep. No further details were released.

Just this Wednesday, the House Bunny star Anna Faris and her boyfriend, actor Chris Pratt, had been caught having lunch and doing some shopping along Hollywood

The couple was spotted walking hand in hand in Los Angeles earlier this week.
In August, Faris told PEOPLE of the 29-year-old Pratt, "He's awesome. He's a great, great guy. I feel really lucky."

Patrick Schwarzenegger has 2 bodyguards

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver's son, Patrick Schwarzenegger, was spotted out in Beverly Hills this weekend.

However, he wasn't alone. No, he wasn't joined by any female friends.

Patrick Schwarzenegger, 15 years old, was seen lately shopping with two bodyguards. Two bodyguards! Looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger is not giving anyone a chance to be near his son.

Why does he need two? Does he get picked on too much at school? Do all the Schwarzenegger kids have two bodyguards?

Seems like a bit TWO much.

It's not like Patrick is famous or has a recognizable face.

Michael Jackson Sued by John Landis

Another day, another Michael Jackson lawsuit.

Remember that Thriller musical we told you about yesterday? Seems Michael Jackson already has a sequel in the works.

This one will be playing out not on Broadway, however, but in a Los Angeles courtroom.

John Landis - the genius behind the Thriller music video - is suing for the 50% of the profits owed to him over the past 4 years.

John Landis, the filmmaker whose credits include Animal House, The Blues Brothers and Trading Places, is suing over another of his best known hits—Jackson's "Thriller" video. Landis says Jackson owes him big bucks in royalties for the classic 14-minute clip.

Back in 1983, Landis' people entered into a contract with Jackson's people, granting Landis 50% of profits earned from the video. And yes, that includes Broadway adaptations.

Per the complaint, filed in L.A. Superior Court last week and obtained by E! News, the 58-year-old filmmaker accuses the 50-year-old Moonwalker of "fraudulent, malicious and oppressive conduct" for failing to fork over a check.

The suit doesn't specify the exact amount Landis is owed but it's thought to be around $1 million. In any case, the legal action comes at a fortuitous time considering Jackson just sold the rights to the "Thriller" video to theatrical wizards Nederlander Organization to stage a Broadway musical based on the horror spoof.

Jackson's rep, Dr. Tohme Tohme, was not immediately available for comment.

Speaking to the entertainment site The Wrap, Landis attorney Martin Feldman said the lawsuit was a last resort.

"I can't understand what they are doing to John Landis' company. It is such a straight ahead thing," he said. "It makes no sense at all to me."

Landis says that Jackson - or whoever is running his troubled finances - has failed to "provide any accounting of the Thriller profits for the past four years 'and earlier', and failing to pay Landis his 50 percent cut of the net proceeds."

But, the most troubling aspect of the case, however, is that there doesn't seem to be anyone in charge of the crumbling King of Pop's Financial Kingdom, except for a "mysterious Los Angeles physician" named Tohme Tohme.

As if the life of Michael Jackson ever made sense to any of us.

Paris Hilton Gets Cyber Attacked

Paris Hilton has once more been attacked by cyber hacks on her official internet site which has reportedly been tainted with a brutal computer virus. The socialite's webpage, ParisHilton.com, is supposed to have been attacked by a malignant software program which bonds itself to the computers of anybody checking out the internet site.
Any devotees viewing the website are at chance of going down as a victim to the computer virus, which may steal their internet bank information, according to a celebrity magazine. Hilton was also the victim of cyberspace crime in 2006, as hackers unsecured her cellular phone and branded her contact list on the World Wide Web.

Britney Spears Asked To Change Words Of Song

Britney Spears is no alien to contention. The turbulent pop singer is presently gearing up for her global tour where she will be hoping to demonstrate to everybody that she is better than ever. She could have used a problem free 2009. Only she got down to a speculative beginning once she proclaimed that the 3rd single to be brought out from her comeback record album Circus will be If You Seek Amy. It completely sounds really clean-handed only, as disclosed last year, the title of the song in reality stands for something really risqué indeed. Articulate the name really slow and what you really get is an explicit, erm, invitation. To put it into context, among the lines in the song is: "All the boys and the girls are begging to If You Seek Amy." The Radio stations warned they would censor it from their airwaves once they discovered what was happening. Censored Britney is among those acts who attracts all ages and this isn't precisely the kind of song parents desire their children singing along to. Thus confronted with the expectation of the single being censored across America, she returned to the studio and rerecorded it. Only fans perhaps will be a trifle let down with the consequence. Instead of revising the song, Britney and her recording label have merely omitted the "K" from the end of "seek" and renamed the song "If You See Amy".
