Hefner’s got his sights set on Cyrus

GOSSIP. Ah, Hugh Hefner, that old coot. The Playboy king has entered into the Miley Cyrus vs. Vanity Fair fray (sure, he’s two weeks too late, but cut him some slack, he’s older than time) and has offered her a chance to appear in the hallowed pages of Playboy. “Sure, she’d be welcomed in the magazine,” he told the TV show “Extra.” “[She’s a] very pretty lady.”

Now, of course 15-year-old Cyrus will not show the world her special “Hannah Montana” in Playboy, as this would be total and abject insanity. But we know of another way the two could collaborate. We could totally see Disney green-lighting a show about a young girl who learns life lessons while caring for an old man who wears bathrobes and needs help walking around and eating solid food. It would be touching, really.

Except for the fact that E! has beaten them to the punch with “The Girls Next Door.”

Let his body stay a wonderland

The TMZ snoops were out in full force this weekend, snapping photos of John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston in full-on snuggle mode poolside at a Miami hotel.  Sure, there is a lot of snark about this new couple, but we’re going to come out and say that we love the idea of them together. They’ve both been through the celebrity wringer and seem all the better and funnier for it. However, if they break up and Mayer starts to look as puffy as Vince Vaughn did after his Aniston split, we’re going to have some words.

She’s already ruined the body of one heartthrob; she really shouldn’t do it again.

Been there, done that
We love it when, instead of rejecting your inability to move on from a hit television show, you embrace it (we’re looking at you, Mischa Barton). Jennie Garth is returning to the old 90210 neighborhood, reports The Hollywood Reporter, and will be reprising her role as Kelly Taylor on the CW’s “Beverly Hills, 90210” spinoff as a guidance counselor at her old high school. And she’s going to be perfect. Who else has endured being date-raped, joining a cult, being shot, having amnesia, going through rehab, being stalked by someone from rehab, suffering through a miscarriage, possible sterilization and being caught in a deadly fire at a fraternity house? Oh, and lest we forget,  she was also a fashion designer with her  very good friend Donna. See? She totally has all of the high-school drama bases covered.
