Celebrity line of the Day

“The last person to see me naked was my stylist. But it’s usually my roommate, who is my best friend – she sees me buck-naked all the time. She walks in and I’m like, ‘Look, I’m naked! Naked girl! I’ve had so many embarrassing moments. You name it, I’ve done it. I’m always falling on my face!”


Heroes star Hayden Panettiere tells reporters that the last person to see her butt nekkid wasn’t Steve Jones but her girl friend.

Lada Gaga discarded by Her Gentleman

Speed’s disco fix is no longer Lady Gaga's for the riding.

The mono-monikered industrialist broke up with his hit maker girlfriend of three months Wednesday after a photo of her snogging another fella made it into the U.K.'s Sun tabloid, a source close to the ex-couple entirely tells E! News.

The ill-advised make out meeting occurred at the restaurant Balans in London's Soho district, where Gaga trotted her 20-person entourage following her man-straddling gig at Brixton Academy.

"He was so frustrated, but he's not into cheaters," our source said of Speedy. "It was hard enough for them to be in a long-distance affiliation, but then this came out and it was over for him."

The 31-year-old Los Angeleno had put business on hold to accompany Gaga on tour. The before happy duo, who met on the set of her "Love Game" video, also vacationed last month in Hawaii, where they were photographed smooching on the beach.

Maybe Lady Gaga thinks you're just supposed to start kissing anyone when there's a camera around.

A rep for the singer didn't directly respond to a demand for comment.

Most Funniest People in America

JON STEWART AND THE 'DAILY SHOW' TEAM

The Daily Show with Jon Stewart is the most reliable laugh machine on TV — and the only news source for scores of cynics and slackers. It's not often that a comedy show can tackle politics, embrace a cogent point of view, and still maintain its anarchic spark. The scribes at The Daily Show pull it off four nights a week. As the heart and spirit of the show, Stewart is fair but never meek; as an interviewer, he can make his guests comfortable even as he's taking them apart. Then there's his gang of ''correspondents,'' who combatant straight-facedly into the great American absurd and take no prisoners. Empirically speaking, there's nothing funny about what's going on in the world right now. Yet here we are each week, chortling

JACK BLACK

Black is an entirely new sorting of human: the hectic slacker. Before his turn as doffs band reject/inspirational teacher Dewey Finn in School of Rock, he was the Ritalin-deprived half of Tenacious D (along with his partner, Kyle Gass) and the list-obsessed record-shop shlub in High Fidelity. He is, inarguably, the coolest fusion of music and comedy since Spinal Tap. (And his work in Tropic Thunder is good enough to balance out of the stink of Nacho Libre and Year One

ELLEN DEGENERES

DeGeneres, whose profession seemed all but useless a few years ago, has earned back admiration simply

by being her affably dry self on the Emmy-winning The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Whether it's her circuitous

monologues, her deadpan celebrity interviews, or that vocal turn as Dory in Finding Nemo, she ruins one

of the cleanest, coolest amusing ladies approximately

DIABLO CODY

That’s not we're being incomplete to our very own journalist, but the recently minted Oscar winner showed off her comedic — and emotional — chops with her debut screenplay for Juno. Did we mention it won an Oscar

DEMETRI MARTIN

Do You know what's funny? Palindromes and anagrams. ''Shut up, Grandma,'' you say, but we say shut up yourself and watch Demetrius Martin work a stand-up mic. ''A drunk driver's very dangerous. Everybody knows that. But so is a drunk backseat driver — if he's persuasive.'' The floppy-haired heir to Steven Wright won a prestigious award at 2007's Edinburgh Festival Fringe, which helped launch him from the comedy underground to a hit show on Comedy Central called Important Things With Demetri Martin.

DAVID CROSS

The entire conversations about his smarts starthere: Along with Bob Odenkirk, he produced the cunning

HBO sketch series Mr. Show, which routinely put SNL to silly shame. And not only does Cross

work little miracles in supporting roles (remember his role as feckless freak-job Tobias on Fox's

Arrested Development?), he can drop some pretty fearsome stand-up (who else talks about being

raped by the Virgin Mary?). Simply put, this dude not at all kowtows for his funny

AMY SEDARIS AND DAVID SEDARIS

Big brother is the best-selling author of the inspiring autobiographical essay collection Me Talk

Pretty One Day and Naked, full of great riffs about stuff like his cuckoo-clock North Carolina

clan and his little-person guitar teacher. Little sis was the rubber-faced star of Comedy Central's

truly odd Strangers With Candy, as well as author of I Like You: amusing Under the authority.

DAVE CHAPPELLE

His actuality that Diamond Dave is all but missing from the comedic step these days doesn't quash his funny. After all, Chappell’s honored Comedy Central show on which the tough comic excitedly occupied in crass T&A humor, swore like a sailor, and mocked everyone in the multicasting rainbow, confronting race in a way that is positively Pryor-sequel — is still the best sketch comedy this country has seen in more than a decade

CRAIG FERGUSON

Late night is the state of the mono-name. Jay! Dave! Conan! Then there's that Scottish guy, two-name ID required: Craig Ferguson. You know the one who can't quite be pinned down. Since taking over CBS' Late Late Show from Craig Kilborn in 2005, Ferguson has brought a fresh burst of energy to the format. He's reinvented the opening monologue, doing away with most of the topical jokes and just ad-libbing about his life.

CONAN O'BRIEN

Smarty-pants isn't generally praise, but O'Brien wears them so well. When this Harvard geek isn't riffing on Muammar Gaddafi in his monologue, he's making absurd innovations in low-brow comedy. And what's more, those innovations seem to have survived the move to The Tonight Show — Conan's stewardship of the Show that Johnny Built and Jay Recently Vacated has been a hard achievement.

STEPHEN COLBERT AND THE 'COLBERT REPORT' TEAM

The once (and, we're sure, future) presidential candidate, dramatist, and devoted windbag also happens to be one of the smartest satirists effective today. Heck, if the entire dude had on his resume was the legendary 2006 White House Correspondents Dinner, he'd go down in comedy history. But week-in and week-out, Colbert takes aim at the political-industrial complex — and we don't care if there's no such term — and spins the facts into truth. Or truth ness. Whatever’s easier.

CHRIS ROCK

Television botched him (Saturday Night Live didn't know what to do with his bright-bulb humor, and his

HBO talk show couldn't contain him). The movies didn't get him (though this is as much Rock'sfault as anyone's,

given he wrote and directed his most recent starring Head of State and I Think I Love My vehicles,

the underperforming wife). But on the stage, Rock is a man on a mission, mercilessly tackling race, religion,

money, and relationships. And his missionaries are crowd

CATHERINE O'HARA

following her lope on SCTV in the late '70s, Hollywood didn't know what to do with O'Hara. auspiciously, Christopher Guest did. For a mirthful interview scene in Waiting for Guffman, she and Fred Willard are tracksuit-wearing answers to Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire; in Best in Show, she's a onetime floozy with a prize terrier and a torrid past; and in A Mighty Wind, O'Hara shows off a subtler comic handle, proving that joking doesn't always mean a pie in the face

SACHA BARON COHEN

Okay, so he doesn't waste all that much of his time in America. We don't mind. Cohen is using the redemptive power of comedy to make audiences confront their own fears — be it xenophobia (Borat was nothing if not alien) or homophobia (hello, Brüno!) — while building them wriggle in their seats with painful delight

` THE JUDD APATOW POSSE

Know how to you even keep in mind what movie comedy looked like before writer-director-producer Judd Apatow and his ever-expanding comedy clan (including Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, Jonah Hill, and Paul Rudd) came along last summer with two stiff shots of cathartic humor — the oops-she's-preggers romp Knocked Up and the high school raunchfest Superbad? Today, when studio execs have a comedy that feels flat or formulaic, the call goes out to ''Judd it up'' — sweet irony for a man once best known for critically beloved flops like TV's Freaks and Geeks. ''It was always my dream to become a verb,'' Wapato deadpans. ''That's what I wrote in my high school yearbook.''

Hotties of '09: The Women

ZOE SALDANA
Nyota Uhura in Star Trek

The sharp object of Kirk's unreciprocated envy just gets hotter once it's open she's looking up with none other than that geek spirit Spock. Yes, America, it's nerds FTW!

YUNJIN KIM
Sun Hwa Kwon on Lost

We've prized inspection our observation of the breathtakingly beautiful Sun goes from that of a nervous, obedient wife to a faithless, violently faithful survivor. And as anyone who's ever Google Image searched Kim knows, her Sun character's passive style doesn't even begin to arrest this woman's hotness

TRICIA HELFER
Number Six on Battlestar Galactica

If the face of the enemy were always this attractive, armed conflict would be a very different scenario. Sure, humanity

would still probably get wiped out, but maybe we'd go with a smile on our collective

SUMMER GLAU
Cameron on Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles

You be able to get into us any times you want, Summer Glau. En. Knee. Time.

SALLI RICHARDSON-WHITFIELD
Allison Blake on Eureka

A number of sci-fi geeks will keep in brains Richardson-Whitfield from caller stints on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Stargate SG-1, and Gargoyles, but she's really come into her own as the sultry, stern, all-business Allison, director of overall Dynamics — the mega-company that employs many of the geniuses that live in the town of Eureka. (She was also woman sufficient to land Will Smith as a husband — in 2007's I Am Legend, anyway.)

MOON BLOODGOOD
Blair Williams in Terminator Salvation

This robot-annihilating badass makes our adrenaline pump every time we see her just like her namesake. Here's to a hot calling that'll shine brighter than...the sun.

KATEE SACKHOFF
Kara ''Starbuck'' Thrace on Battlestar Galactica

It's not effortless mounting from the ashes of an reporting spacecraft and getting labeled a ''portent of death.'' But Sackhoff's Starbuck not only did all that, but she led the human-Cylon dual forces in a kick-ass gun battle and looked sexy as hell doing it.

GILLIAN ANDERSON
Dana Scully in The X-Files: I Want to Believe

All right, so the X-Files result came out last summer and belly flopped at the box-office. But Anderson's Scully, with her strong suspicion and stoic faith in science, proved a dream of ghostly beauty in Chris Carter's otherwise bleak and solid cinemascope. Or, yeah, she was perfectly hot.

EVANGELINE LILLY
Kate Austen on Lost

This been a few seasons since we saw Kate sauntering approximately the beach in her skivvies. But her sexy, tomboy swagger doesn't craft it hard to buy that her revisit to the Island threw a wrench in Sawyer's playing house with Juliette

ERICA DURANCE

Lois Lane on Smallville

This bird, a plane, it's the sexiest, sassiest, shrewdest Lois Lane since Margot Kidder. Smallville was tidy to travel her front and heart last season. Here's hoping they maintain her self

ELIZA DUSHKU

Echo on Dollhouse

The stripped promo wound for the initial season of Fox's Dollhouse got our concentration, and now we have the glee of wondering what costumes she'll smash hearts — and bones — in for season 2.

MONICA BELLUCCI

Moment Her brief yet smokin' turn as Persephone in 2003's The Matrix Reloaded

INGRID BERGMAN
She's one of the most beautiful women ever to walk the earth. Watching Cary Grant fall head over heels for her in Notorious is very believable and delicious to watch

LYNDA CARTER
Lynda Carter was my ideal growing up. And she's still beautiful

PHOEBE CATES

Duh...climbing out of the pool in 1982's Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Oh, to be Judge Reinhold's fertile imagination

FARRAH FAWCETH

The late actress may have achieved stardom on Charlie's Angels and icon status with her famous red swimsuit poster, but Farrah Fawcett was never hotter than in her breakout commercial spot with Joe Namath, singing ''Let Noxzema cream your face, so your razor won't.'' (See it as part of our look back at Farrah

AVA GARDNER

To leave out Ava Gardner is a total travesty. Even Elizabeth Taylor said she was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen.

SALMA HAYEK

Taking off her coffee-stained blouse in a elevator in Ugly Betty

RITA HAYWORTH

Ultimate Hottie Moment Her hair isn't the only thing with bounce when she performs ''Put the Blame on Mame'' in 1946's Gilda

while tangling with Brad Pitt in 2005's Mr. and Mrs. Smith

GRACE KELLY

Ultimate Hottie Moment Clad in a show-stopping Edith Head-designed dress as James Stewart's girlfriend in Alfred Hitchcock's classic 1954 thriller, Rear Window

CHERYL LADD

Whether sporting wet hair in a striped bikini, dry hair in a white bikini or (such range!) pulled-back hair in a red bikini, Ladd was always smokin' on Charlie's Angels

HEATHER LOCKLEAR

She looked great in uniform as T.J. Hooker's Officer Stacy Sheridan, but Locklear was truly arresting as Dynasty's bitch-in-training Sammy Jo Dean Carrington.

SOPHIA LOREN

Moment Is there a single scene that captured the Italian star's allure better than the moment in 1957's Boy on a Dolphin when she exits the surf

MADONNA

Moment Makin' out with ''Jesus'' as a buxom brunette in her ''Like a Prayer''

ANN-MARGRET

The scene in Tommy where she is rolling around in beans on the living-room floor

MARILYN MONROE

Her love affair with the camera reached a peak with the famous sidewalk vent scene in 1955's

MICHELLE PFEIFFER

Pfeiffer atop a piano (The Fabulous Baker Boys), cracking a whip (Batman Returns), coming down an elevator (Scarface), or straddling Mel Gibson (Tequila Sunrise)!

JACLYN SMITH

During a decade of divisive debate (Vietnam, Watergate, the oil embargo), none roiled campuses (at least of the junior high variety) more than the question of who was hotter, Farrah Fawcett or Jaclyn Smith

RAQUEL WELCH

Ultimate Hottie — Moment In the caveman epic One Million Years BC (1966)complete with Ray Harryhausen's stop-motion dinosaurs — Raquel did for fur bikinis what Return of the Jedi's Carrie Fisher did for metal ones.

KATE WINSLET

UHM would have to be in Titanic (of course) when she finally realizes Leo is one she wants to be with, and she meets him at the bow of the ship for the ''Jack, I'm flying!'' moment. So beautiful.

CATHERINE ZETA-JONES

Ultimate Hottie Moment Bending her body through a laser-triggered alarm system in the otherwise forgettable 1999 heist movie Entrapment
