Paris Hilton thrills in Manila; Anderson Cooper gets the giggles



Paris Hilton,
who has been in the Philippines for five days, cut the ribbon to open a new handbag and store bearing her name today. Earlier this week, she announced her partnership with a property and resort development company and met Filipino world boxing champion Manny Pacquiao and wife Jinkee. ...

"Where in the world is Matt Lauer?" will be back in November. ... Is Kim Kardashian a wedding trendsetter or trend follower? ... Matthew McConaughey has joined the cast of Magic Mike, the Steven Soderbergh movie based on Channing Tatum's days as a male dancer/stripper. ... Does Leonardo DiCaprio have a new hybrid car? ... Tea Party candidate Christine O'Donnell stormed off Piers Morgan's CNN set last night and called him a "cheeky bugger" after he grilled her on witchcraft, sex and gay marriage. ... A frequent contributor to a jihadist website has threatened David Letterman, urging Muslim followers to "cut the tongue" of the late-night host because of a joke Letterman made. ...

And finally, the buzz o' the day is Anderson Cooper's complete crackup during last night's report on Gerard Depardieu urinating on an airplane. Cooper filled his report with potty puns, such as, "They saw an actual thespian actually thes-peeing."

What really got him laughing: "All I can say, they should thank their lucky stars it wasn't Depar-two" He laughed and laughed. We can hardly wait for his daytime talk show!
