Ledger and Ward enjoyed a series of dates over the Christmas period in Perth. They caught comedy Outsourced on 20 Dec and enjoyed a romantic meal at restaurant Creatures Loft on 26 Dec. Restaurant manager William Wood says, "They had a very good time. It's pretty obvious they're an item." Good choice.









Michelle Rodriguez has been released from prison on Wednesday (9th Jan) after serving 18 days of a 180-day sentence due to prison overcrowding. "She was treated the same way we do with all females because of the extent of overcrowding," Steve Whitmore confirmed. This despite an insistence that Rodriguez would not be eligible for early release from the judge. Smart move, Ana. [MR-Released!]

Robbie Williams is going on strike in protest against the new owners of his record company. The singer, who signed an £80 million deal, is leading other stars in the protest. His manager Tim Clark said: "The question is, 'Should Robbie deliver the new album he is due to release to EMI?' "We have to say the answer is 'No'. We have no idea how EMI will market and promote the album." Yup. Ego still there.









Rachel Bilson has suffered partial amnesia since cheating death in a teenage car crash. The actress was in a coma for two days following the smash, which left a friend paralyzed - and she has struggled to recall events from her near and distant past since. The actress says, "I was involved in a car accident when I was 14. I had a concussion and blacked out. I don't have much of a memory now." Wow. Poor thing. More sad news is that Rach says "No." to nudity in movies. [RB-Nudity]

Tara Reid has hit back at accusations she is "too thin" and denies suffering from an eating disorder. She says, "I'm not too thin. I go up 10 pounds, I go down 10 pounds. I was thin for a movie that I just finished - the upcoming horror film Vipers. Now they are going to say I'm too fat because I've gained 10 pounds... I can't win." Yeah. Just party on with some 40s.

A farmer neighbour of Pierce Brosnan is suing him for stealing her water. Hawaii farmer Cathy Ham Young claims the previous owner diverted water from the farm she owns. Young, 77, claims her vegetable crop has been ruined by draught and she is taking him to the courts. She says, "Pierce Brosnan stole my water. Because he's a millionaire movie star, he thought he could just move in and steal my water." Perhaps they could settle it with a Bond-like kiss.

Muse, Bloc Party and Feist are among a host of artists who are set to appear on a new 'environmental' compilation album. Songs by Deerhoof and Of Montreal also feature on the tracklist for 'The Green Owl Comp: A Benefit For The Energy Action Coalition'. 100% of the profits made from the album will be given to support the Energy Action Coalition (EAC), a campaign group seeking greater environmental awareness. Should be great.
