(HOLLYSCOOP) -- Pete Wentz has come forward with some pretty hilarious information about himself from the past. He says he was a late bloomer, and he needed bedroom advice before ever getting intimate with the ladies.

In an interview with Elle magazine, Pete says, "I wasn't sure where a girl's genitalia sat, compared to a male's. I wish I'd had a GPS in high school because I had no clue where I was going. I guess on a man it feels like it's closer to the belly button. On a girl, it's further down. I'll be honest, I was a super-late bloomer, and I was kind of a prude."

We’ll be honest too! Nothing is near the belly button Pete!

Pete also says he never fit the bill of a typical rocker who sleeps around. He says, "I've always wanted to be able to keep the number of people I've had sex with very low, because I never wanted to have to tell my future wife, 'Oh, yeah, I was with 30 people.'"

Speaking of wife, Ashlee is still pregnant! Jessica told Ellen she thought she might have to induce labor if it goes too much longer. She is definitely ready to pop!

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- Britney: For the Record will premiere next week, November 30 @ 10PM ET/PT on MTV, but EW has some tidbits from the documentary. This is the first time Britney actually opens up about her past. Read the excerpts below!

On Justin Timberlake and Kevin Federline (whom she refers to as "my babies' daddy"):
"With Justin, he was a part of the magnitude of what I had become. So when he was gone I was like, What am I supposed to do with myself? I was devastated [by the breakup] but I handled it a lot better than the [split] with Kevin....He started to do an album for himself and he started to do things for himself, and I just never saw him anymore....When it ended I felt so alone. I didn't really wanna think about the reality of it. I never faced it....I just ran."

On recovering from her 2007 meltdown:
"My trust has really been battered....Sometimes it can get kinda lonely....I had totally lost my way. I lost focus. I lost myself. I let certain people into my life that were just bad people...because I was lonely....I really paid the consequences for that. Big time....What the hell was I thinking?"

On fame:
"At first, it's amazing, the first year or two, because it's like, I'm a celebrity!....It didn't really touch me until I had been working for six years....I wanted to just stop. I wanted to create a new life."

On the current state of her life:
"Do I know my life is weird? It's all I've ever known. I don't see it as being weird....I'm kind of stuck in this place and I'm like, How do you deal? I just cope with it every day....It's better not to feel anything at all and have hope than to feel the other way....It's bad. I'm sad." She breaks down into tears. Later, she complains that her life is too in control these days: "It's like Groundhog Day every day. It's really boring....Normal is really different for everybody....In my situation, I try to make it as normal as possible for me....It could be a lot worse. There are people out there who have it a lot worse than I do....I used to be a cool chick but I feel like the paparazzi has taken that away from me, like, the way I used to live my life. I used to be a cool chick but I'm not anymore."

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- Here come the Josh Harnett-Sienna Miller rumors again! The two were spotted having an intimate evening in London, leading people to think once again that they might be dating.

Josh is currently living in London while he stars in the West End production of Rain Man. According to The London Paper, Josh and Sienna went out last week as well to the exclusive Shoreditch House.

A source tells the paper, "They definitely looked like a couple - and a good looking one at that! At one point, they were holding hands across the table, but they quickly hid them underneath. They looked really cozy as they dined, gazing into each other’s eyes, smiling and laughing. They continued talking and drinking until very late into the evening - there was definitely a buzz in the air.”

A couple years ago Sienna and Josh were rumored to be dating after paparazzi snapped photos of them getting cozy at the Chataeu Marmont. Could they be rekindling an old flame?

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- If any of you watched “Making the Band 4” season finale, you were probably shocked when P. Diddy kicked off Aubrey O'Day and D. Woods from Danity Kane.

On the show a furious Diddy sat down to discuss rumors of internal tension between the women of Danity Kane, eventually telling Aubrey that she needed to leave the group because she was tarnishing the reputation of the band. He screamed, “I don’t have to communicate shit to you or this group, in fact, I don't want you in this group!”

The band is now down to two girls; Dawn and Aundrea, who have to drop a new album without the other girls

Hollyscoop caught up with Aubrey O’Day at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion show held at the legendary iconic Fontainebleau Hotel to get the scoop on her future plans sans Danity Kane.

When we asked if she would be back on the show Aubrey said, “You never know maybe ill be back on it. Maybe I will be on my own show.”

We pressed for an official confirmation to which she responded, “Absolutely.” Whether it would be on MTV, Aubrey said, “Possibly, you never know.”

We're assuming Aubrey is going to have her own show on MTV, produced by P. Diddy, which will chronicle her life after Danity Kane as she tries to get a solo career going--it's reality television after all!

Check out our exclusive interview with Aubrey below.

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- So it looks like the mystery illness that struck Winona Ryder was a case of too many happy pills.

As you recall Winona had to rushed to the hospital yesterday after she became ill during a fight to the UK yesterday. The pilot was forced to make a priority landing 22 minutes before the expected landing time.

According to Askmen.com, Winona reportedly had her stomach pumped at Hillingdon Hospital, West London after accidentally taking too many Xanax pills.

Her rep confirmed: "She did fall ill on a flight and as a precautionary measure, was taken to a hospital. She was there maybe an hour and was released. The bottom line is she is in good health."

One passenger said: "She turned a deathly shade of pale. It was scary." Another source added: "There was a massive commotion. Everyone on board was stunned and you could tell the cabin crew were worried."

She used to be such a great actress, it's sad that the only thing she makes headlines for now is stealing and overdoses.

So are wedding bells in the near future for Bailon and Kardashian? "I hope so, because I don't know what I would do without that cute little thing in my life. She's like my twin."

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- Ben Affleck is currently in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Africa, where he’s hoping to draw attention to the warring country. He met with officials and toured refugee camps where 250,000 people have been placed because of the war.

This is Ben’s fourth trip to Congo since 2007, and he’s also made a documentary about how bad the situation is there. His message to others is to helo stop the suffering of innocent civilians. Fighting has escalated in the past year after disputes between the army and loyalist of rebel leader Laurent Nkunda broke out. Ben just wants to use his status to bring attention to the region.

He says, "I’m not an expert in international affairs or diplomacy, but it doesn’t take that to see the tremendous suffering here. It’s not something that we as human beings can, in good conscience, ignore. I’m really glad that more people are paying more attention to Congo now but I’m really saddened that it’s taken this increase in violence to make that happen."

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- Things have moved fast ever since news of Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s divorce went public. And now the two have reportedly reached a divorce settlement.

According to London’s Evening Standard, Guy isn’t asking for any money from Madge. She has an estimated worth of $600 million, which is all hers because they didn’t sign a prenup as newlyweds.

We’re sure Guy is doing just fine on his own with his finances, but usually there’s some sort of fight for the money! Madonna and Guy have agreed on one thing though. They’ll share custody of their two sons, Rocco and David, who will split their time between NY and London. Lourdes will live permanently with her mother.

An official announcement is expected by the end of month.

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- Just last week, The National Enquirer reported that John McCain's wife Cindy was having an affair.

They posted grainy photos of Cindy and some mystery man locking lips and the media went wild.

The tabloid has done some serious snooping around and they've revealed the identity of her alleged lover. His name is Dino Castelli and he's a 56 year old used car dealer.

"Dino and Cindy have been secretly dating for three years. I don't think he suspected what Cindy was doing behind his back. But they had to cool the relationship after he became the presumptive Republican nominee this past March 4. Cindy had to travel with John, and there was always Secret Service around," a source told The Enquirer.

Do you think that Cindy and John will split up?

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- Us Weekly recently reported that Britney Spears' new track titled "Mmm Papi" was written about her former boyfriend/photographer Adnan Ghalib. It looks like that may not be the case after all.

Nicole Morier, Britney's co-writer on the song said: "I never said that to the US Weekly! The song is definitely not about Adnan and in the whole time I worked with her last spring and summer I never once saw that guy. We strictly wrote the song for fun. the Mmm Papi part came out of Mmm Papa Luv U and I came up with it because the track was a fun up beat track."

Nicole even went on to add a nice shout out to Brit. She said, "Please be kind to Britney and post this correction. She was oh so sweet and professional to work with, and I believe she's really gotten her life together." We feel the same way!

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- Rumor has it that Mel Gibson and his wife Robin's marriage may be on the rocks.

Back in September, there were whispers about a beautiful young Russian woman named Oksana visiting Mel on the set of his movie "Edge of Darkness."

As it turned out, she was supposedly hired to do nothing more than write music for the film. Now a source is telling The National Enquirer that Robyn was not pleased with the gossip about Oksana and her hubby.

"It may turn out that Mel's friendship with the woman is innocent, but Robyn warned him that if he embarrassed her one more time, their marriage is dead and buried."

Interestingly enough, did you know that Mel is worth $900 million and he never signed a prenup?

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- For the right price, rapper Akon will fly anywhere to perform for your special occasion. He'll do it, but he doesn't have to like it. Princess Sheikha Hessa of Dubai flew him out to sing at her big birthday gala last week, but he wasn't alone.

Among others, the princess also flew in former "America's Got Talent" stars Nuttin' But Stringz. When the birthday girl heard NBS warming up, "she gave them Akon's place in the lineup, making them the lead act," said a source for Page Six.

How did Akon react to the news that he was no longer the lead? He was pouting the rest of the night and wouldn't talk to anyone," the source added. His rep said: "He performed for an hour and there was no pouting."

Forget the attitude, we're wondering how much cold hard cash it took to even get him out there in the first place.

(HOLLYSCOOP) -- Heath Ledger's family should be proud to know that he's still helping people even after his untimely death.

Former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Amber Smith said that Heath's sudden passing due to an accidental drug overdose played a part in her getting clean.

She told the new issue of Steppin Out Magazine: "I was terrified when [he] OD'd. I've OD'd like that twice in my life. I’ve woken up with my mouth and fingertips blue. But luckily I've woken up."

We're glad to hear that she finally got a w
