Pam Anderson disses Sarah Palin
Most celebrities are speaking out against Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, like Matt Damon who thinks she's totally absurd.
Pamela Anderson, 41, was recently in Toronto speaking out against the abuse of animals in Hollywood. When asked by E! News Weekend Canada about Palin, she has some choice words for the Republican hopeful. The reporter asked Pam if she saw the recent Newsweek article, which showed a gigantic bear hide in the office of Palin's house.
''I can't stand her,'' Pam blurted out. ''She can suck it!''
Pam is a vegetarian, an advocate for animal rights, and an active member of the animal protection organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).
Jordin has 'no regrets'
"American Idol" winner Jordin Sparks apparently has no regrets about putting MTV Video Music Awards host Russell Brand in his place after he mocked the Jonas Brothers' pledge to remain virgins until marriage.
"It got to a point where she was so peeved she couldn't take it anymore," a Sparks pal told Pop Tarts. "Jordin felt very strongly the issue needed to be addressed and has no regrets saying what she said."
Reps for Sparks and Brand did not respond to requests for comment. But it isn't just the chastity condemnation that has caused an outcry across America - Brand's "retard cowboy fella" reference toward President Bush has deeply angered numerous disability groups.
"We don't think the words 'retard' or 'retarded' should be used in connection with people," Andrew Imparato, the president of the American Association of People with Disabilities, told Pop Tarts. "When either word gets used, we find it offensive, don't think it's funny, and find it similar to the 'n' word in that it has a long and sordid history and does real harm to the people who have carried that label historically."
But it turns out that Brand's wild ways have gotten him in deep trouble before - he was even fired from the network that has given him his fame today. Brand's first major hosting gig was as a veejay for MTV in the U.K., but he thought it would be funny to come to work dressed as Usama bin Laden after 9/11. His contract was consequently terminated.
"We then hired him back in a swirling haze of scandal," Van Toffler, the MTVN president, said in a statement earlier this year. "We're definitely gluttons for punishment, since we already know he's sought advice from some of his British colleagues, like Amy Winehouse, about how to behave in public."
Well, it looks like Brand's brand of controversy - along with Britney Spears' much-hyped "opening act" - did wonders for the VMAs, which averaged 8.4 million viewers on Sunday, its biggest total since 2004. The show was up from 7.1 million last year. The VMAs hit a record high with 11.9 million in 2002.

Laila Ali Gives Birth!
And in this corner, weighing in at 6.8 lbs., measuring 19 inches long and wearing the white diapers, is Laila Ali's littlest prize fighter ... Curtis Muhammad Conway!
The American Gladiator host, 30, and her husband, retired NFL star Curtis Conway, 37, welcomed their first son together, she announced on her Web site Thursday. (http://www.lailaali.com/)
"Although mom and baby are both healthy and happy, there were some surprises during labor that altered Laila's birth plan," the statement said.
Ali has no doubts that Conway - who has twin sons Kelton and Cameron, 13, and daughter Leilani, 9, from a previous relationship - will do his fair share of diaper duty now that baby "CJ" (short for Curtis Junior) has arrived.
During her pregnancy, "[Curtis] picked up a lot of the slack at home," Ali told PEOPLE earlier this year. "He's going to be excellent when the baby comes." Another sure thing? When Ali revealed to PEOPLE that she was expecting a son, the proud mom-to-be declared, "This boy is going to be an athlete, definitely."
Odds are definitely stacked in CJ's favor: Along with mom and dad's impressive athletic stats, CJ is also the grandchild of boxing legend Muhammad Ali.

Miley Cyrus inspired by the Spears
Miley Cyrus says her family draws inspiration from another celeb family -- The Spears'!
The pop powerhouse Cyrus family draws inspiration from another celeb-filled family, the Spears', according to Miley. "We're so excited for them and their family just coming out. So empowered," Miley said of the Spears family. "We just feel so inspired by their family."
At Sunday's MTV "Video Music Awards," Miley told Access Hollywood's Mel B that the Spears' and Cyrus' are close.
"My mom and [Britney] are like great, great friends," The "Hannah Montana" star told Mel B.
Miley was also inspired by her own mom at Sunday's awards show -- inspired to borrow a pair of her mom's shoes for the red carpet. "I'm adjusting to these shoes, they're too small!" Miley said with a tinge of discomfort. "They're my mom's. Not good!"Not letting the inspiration stop with just the Spears family, or her mom's fashion sense, Miley said her Zac Posen dress made her want to dance in the middle of the red carpet.
"I feel like --I'm like dancing -- like salsa!" Miley added.
