This week on the newsstand: Brad and Angelina are building a panic room and Katie Holmes is a fashion copy cat. They don't look scared! Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are allegedly building a panic room in their French estate. Photo by Steve Granitz, WireImage.

Life&Style
Most Likely to Forget Where They Are
Earlier this week InTouch reported that the Jolie-Pitt family have chosen to root in Los Angeles, but according to Life&Style the Brangie Bunch is preparing for a permanent move to Chateau Miraval, their mansion in the South of France. The Where’s Waldo? of celebrity families is apparently having a panic room installed in their French chateau, because, well, because they can. Says InTouch, “Walls are lined with ballistic fiberglass, which can stop bullets, and the room includes an air filtration and ventilation system to protect against chemical, biological and nuclear contaminants.” Simple peasant folk can take comfort in this extravagance by remembering that if the world does succumb to apocalypse, only our prettiest will survive.

Also in Life&Style
The tabloid world has no breaks for Katie Holmes. Not only does she get flack for raising daughter Suri Cruise as a spoiled princess, but now she’s being accused of stealing her style from an actual (almost) princess. The magazine features a spread comparing several of Katie’s recent outfits with similar ones worn by Kate Middleton—4 years ago. Among Katie’s style steals: a long tan trench, a polka dot shirt, and jeans. Jeans! Next time you wear them, remember—Kate Middleton did it first.

Star
Most Unintentionally Ironic Copy Cat Article
In a blurb entitled Copy Katie!, Star magazine ran exactly the same photos of Kate Middleton and Katie Holmes as Life&Style did, but smaller. Now that the copy cat’s out of the bag, it’s time to gear up for the inevitable “I’m rubber, you’re glue” tabloid battle, to be followed shortly by the “Liar, liar, pants on fire” editions.

People
Most Likely to Get Hate Mail from Jessica Simpson
The latest issue of People features details and photos from Reese Witherspoon’s March wedding to her agent, Jim Toth. It's been billed as the “Celebrity Wedding of the Year”, ruining Jessica Simpson’s chances of scoring the same headline for her upcoming marriage to former NFL-er Eric Johnson. Will she delay the wedding until next year in the hopes of getting better coverage, or sell her wedding photos to a trashier publication like Star? My money’s on the latter.

here's a thought. Lets put both of them in a bunker along with Tom and Brad and turn off the air flow. This way the offsprings of these couples will have a chance to be raised properly!!!!! what douchbag couples they are!!!!!

Hey - what's going on with Devon's column? There's not even a Stardish link at the top of the page ... I hope she's not leaving too, I really enjoy her articles!

Thanks, Tea Rose! The feeling is mutual, as I always enjoy your comments :)

I'm still writing for Celebedge, just not for Stardish. I'm working on a new section called Celebs and Kids which will focus on - you guessed it - celebs and kids. It will be up any day now....

Thanks for reading and for posting your thoughtful comments.

Thanks for responding Devon! I'll keep an eye out for your new column!!

Are Devon & Tea Rose friends with benefits?

You will found that these things are really really nice.

Hi Laura, your blog is new to me and normally I would not write right away, but wanted to express my sympathy, as a mother also, regarding Katie. The only thing I have to offer, though, besides prayer, is hope: that one day she will turn around as the young so often do and you must live a full life until then so you will be ready to accept her with open arms when it happens. And always tell her you love her whenever you have contact with her. That's all, I guess. You sound like a terrific person.
