DIANE'S CELEBRITY DIRT - MONDAY, JAN. 22

*The Grey's Anatomy controversy continues. Isaiah Washington, who used a certain slur on the set and backstage at the Golden Globes when referring to gay co-star T.R. Knight, fired his long-time publicist (sure, blame the messenger!) John Mayer blogged about the controversy and said he has a solution. John said the show should make Isaiah's character, Dr. Burke gay so he can get to the roots of his discrimination

*Alec Baldwin is looking for a new love and he joked in the February issue of Glamour that he's thinking about online dating

*Celebrity baby news: Former "Felicity" star Keri Russell is expecting her first baby this summer and Jenna Elfman from "Dharma and Greg" is also expecting her first child.

*American Idol judge Simon Cowell apologized for calling a male contestant a "bush baby" last week. Simon said he wishes he wouldn't have said that (see, he does have a soft side!)

*Paul McCartney and Heather Mills finally reached a truce in their messy divorce. Heather will pocket almost $64 million and keep 2 mansions. Not bad for 4 years of marriage!

*Weekend box office results: Stomp was the #1 movie, follwed by Night at the Museum, Dreamgirls, The Hitcher and the Pursuit of Happyness

*Movie to avoid: I rented The Wicker Man starring Nicolas Cage and it was the worst movie I have ever seen! I love Nic but even he couldn't save this one!
