DIANE'S CELEBRITY DIRT - FRIDAY, FEB. 23

*Judge Larry Seidlin handed down a decision in the Anna Nicole Smith case yesterday. The judge broke down in tears as he strongly recommended that Anna Nicole be buried next to her son Daniel in the Bahamas. He ruled that the court-appointed guardian of Anna Nicole's daughter Dannielynn will get custody of the remains. Meanwhile, Anna Nicole's mother is appealing the decison. Let the woman rest in peace already!

*Britney Spears is back in rehab--for the third time! The first two times she stayed less than 24 hours so hopefully she will complete her program this time. An emergency custody hearing for Brit's two sons was cancelled yesterday as Britney's mom, Lynne and Kevin Federline agreed to share custody of the boys while Britney is in rehab. Gwen Stefani and Justin Timberlake defended Britney's new shaved head look. Gwen thinks she looks good and Justin said it was a good choice because it's a new start.

*Remember Trista and Ryan from The Bachelorette? They fell in love on the reality show and got married on TV. Now they're expecting their first baby after two years of trying to get pregnant. Congrats!

*Shame on you, Donald Trump! Trump reportedly wanted to fire Access Hollywood's Nancy O'Dell as host of next month's Miss USA Pageant because Nancy is pregnant and The Donald doesn't like how pregnant women look. Oh, please!!! Nancy got the last laugh because she's under contract with NBC and she will still host the pageant.

*Big stars are coming to American Idol this season, including Jennifer Lopez on March 11 and Gwen Stefani on March 28.

*The Oscars are coming up Sunday night on ABC with Ellen DeGeneres hosting for the first time.
