In an Elle exclusive, Scarlett Johansson talks about her ever-changing hair and how she keeps her skin so darned perfect (aside from the whole magic movie star DNA thing). On changing into a brunette, she says, "With the hair color, I got a college degree! It comes in the bottle!" Sheesh, and here I am paying off $40K in college loans like a sucker. (Elle)

Robert Pattinson is a hot-ticket item in Hollywood right now. So it comes as no surprise that a kiss from the "Twilight" star sold for $25,000 at the amFAR charity auction in Cannes. (Wow, there must be some pretty well-off tweens in France.) The other big sale? Bill Clinton's sax sold for $150,000. Don't feel too bad, Rob. Surely if you had a clarinet that you could serenade your make-out buddy with, that package deal would've sold for a cool mil. (Page Six)

Speaking of make-out buddies, Paris Hilton and Doug Reinhardt were at it again. The classy couple was photographed at an afterparty in Cannes licking each other's face (I refuse to call this kissing). Maybe being in France made them want to take French kissing to the extreme? Or maybe they can't help but express their undying love? Or maybe they just want the pictures to show up on every celebrity news site? Yep, that's the one. (The Blemish)

"American Idol" champ Kris Allen says he's "shocked … completely shocked" by his surprise win on Wednesday. He continues, "I felt shocked almost every week that I made it, and to be the American Idol, Im completely shocked." Aren't we all, Kris … aren't we all. In any case, you made some reality TV bookies very happy. (OK!)

OMG, the wait is finally over. Epic '90s boy band LFO (short for Lyte Funky Ones … yep) have announced a reunion show in Manhattan this summer. In case you don't remember, these are the guys who wrote the heartfelt ballad "Summer Girls" with lyrics like "New Kids on the Block had a bunch of hits/ Chinese food makes me sick / And I think it's fly when girls stop by for the summer." One night only!!! Don't worry, I've pre-ordered tickets for you. (Highlineballroom.com)

In an interview with Men's Health, Ewan McGregor talks about how he quit his bad health habits. He said, "I started visualizing the doctor telling me that I had cancer from smoking or that I was extremely ill because of how much I'd been drinking." Morbid? Yes. Effective? Yes. Ewan, if acting doesn't work out, you've got a future in the world of self-help. (Men's Health)
The ridiculously ironic rumor we all saw coming miles away: A woman has come forward claiming she had an affair with Carrie Prejean's mom. She says that it ended a few weeks before the Miss USA competition. No comment has been made by the Prejean camp, but we imagine this could get interesting. Congrats, Carrie. Your 15 minutes just got bumped up to 30. (ABC News)
Zach Braff is set to direct, rewrite, and star in the comedy "Swingles," co-starring Cameron Diaz. The movie centers on "a bachelor who is dumped by his wingman and teams up with a sharp-tongued woman he can't stand in order to meet singles." Sounds like good old-fashioned rom-com box-office gold to me. Maybe they'll start out hating each other but end up falling in love in the end?! *Sigh* Only time will tell. (Variety)
Alexis Bledel joins the ranks of Kate Moss and Gisele Bundchen, as IMG has announced it signed the "Gilmore Girl" to its modeling agency. The always-half-smirking actress should work on her full-fledged grin. But until then, we're anxiously awaiting her newest photo shoot, "Sisterhood of the Traveling Size 0 Pants." (People StyleWatch)
