Photos after the jump!

The photo of Angelina licking blood from her lips was taken by acclaimed photographer Martin Schoeller in 2003, just after she adopted her first son, Maddox. The image first appeared in Entertainment Weekly captioned: "Angelina Jolie is One Tough Mother." The pic is expected to garner as much as $40,000.

The black & white nude of Kate Moss was featured in Vogue and could get between $30,000-$40,000.

The photograph of Britney Spears was taken in 1999 when she was 17-years-old. David LaChapelle took the photo in Brit's home in Kentwood, Louisiana, and he urged the teen to adopt a Lolita-esque pose, to which she agreed. David said, "She got it. She knew it would get people talking and excited." It's valued at approximately $30,000-$40,000.

The auction will be held on November 19 at London's Christies.

Michelle Williams Does It Again - Looks Beautiful In Photos

Sassy Smith — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 19:33:00 GMT

Michelle Williams - mother of Heath Ledger's daughter, Matilda Rose - is in the April issue of Elle and she looks amazing. She is a natural beauty without even really trying. Michelle talks about the birth of Matilda and how she's a New York kid and her greatest prize. She also reveals her guess at who former co-star Katie Holmes was dating back in 2005 when the news broke.

Photos and article highlights after the jump

Giving birth to her daughter:

"It's all about water. I was in and out of the bathtub my entire labor -- 24 hours. I don't remember the pain, or the sensation. But I do remember quietly talking to myself and saying, "Okay, you don't have to tell anybody what you're thinking right now. You don't have to tell Heath, you don't have to tell the nurse, you don't have to tell the doctor: You are never, ever doing this again. It can be a secret just for us." [laughs]

I was trying to tell myself, "Remember what I'm saying now. This pain is too great to bear. You won't do this again." And here I am today, and the next one I'll do at home! You totally forget. It's nature's trick."

Her break-up with Heath and her greatest prize:

"All in all, how long has it been? Six months. It's been long and not long. It feels like yesterday and it feels like long ago, but not six months. The distraction of work is utterly invaluable.

When I have too much free time, that's when things start to get a little messy. [Tears pool in eyes, then she smiles.] Matilda's the prize. She's bigger to me than any relationship, bigger than the awards. She's what came out of it."

Her 'Brooklyn baby':

"We were in the car today, driving back from this indoor playspace, and Matilda started talking to herself in the back. She said, "I'd like an everything bagel with butter, please!"

She's such a New York kid. That's what she's thinking about: going home. Every morning we go to the coffee shop. She's ready to go back and get her bagel, and I'm ready to get a really good cup of coffee."

About hearing Katie Holmes was 'dating someone':

"I was shocked. Busy [Philipps, another DC co-star and Michelle's close friend, now 5 months along with a girl, called and said, "You're never going to believe who Katie's with now." And I'm like, "Who?" And she said, "Who's the biggest movie star you can think of?" I said -- this is embarrassing -- 'Tom Selleck?!'"

Madonna Or Marilyn Monroe's T*ts?

Sassy Smith — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 18:05:00 GMT

I've never once confused Madonna and Marilyn Monroe. Even when Madonna dyed her hair platinum blonde and styled it shortish, I didn't think she looked like Marilyn.

Not the case for 73-year-old Lawrence Nicastro. Mr. Nicastro was digging through storage last year and he found a poster size image of Marilyn Monroe - or what he thought was Marilyn Monroe, all naked and such and hitchhiking. Um, ya that is Madonna from her "Sex" book that came out many many years ago.

Lawrence, along with his wife Phyllis, spent months researching the orgin of the picture. He called in Marilyn Monroe "expert," Chris Harris. Mr. Harris also believed that Lawrence had found something totally special. Wow he must be some Marilyn expert!

Lawrence and Chris even scheduled a press conference for yesterday to unveil their find! Can you imagine their embarrassment? Not so much for Lawrence, since the dude is 73 and I highly doubt he ever saw Madonna's book but for the "Marilyn expert," Chris Harris, ah ya, he'd be a tad red-faced. Luckily, the men had given the Associated Press a sneak peek and that's when they were told the not so good news.

Chris Harris said, "Who wins here? Madonna, of course. She really looks like Marilyn Monroe." I beg to differ.

Celebrity Baby Price List: Who's Worth More?

Sassy Smith — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 23:02:00 GMT

Wow, why didn't I have a celebrity baby? Oh, right, I didn't marry a celebrity. Or have sex with one. What celebrity baby garnered what price for their little mug to be on a magazine cover?

We know that Christina Aguilera's little guy Max's picture was worth $2 million and Nicole Richie is estimated to get $1 million for baby Harlow. Jennifer Lopez could get as much as $6 million - must be because she's got two babies to pop out. Still that's alot.

Here's a brief list of other babies and what they brought in for their parents, who by the way, are not hurting for cash.

Bridget Moynahan and baby John (father is Tom Brady) - $100,000

Gwen Stefani, Gavin Rossdale & little tyke Kingston - $575,000

Dannielynn with her media hungry daddy Larry Birkhead - $1.7 million

Angelina & Brad's son Pax - $2 million

Baby Shiloh (Angelina & Brad) - $4.1 million

When Angelina and Brad pop out twins, I can only imagine what kind of payday those baby photos will bring. Cha-ching!

Jessica Alba will no doubt get a fat check too. And can you imagine the price for Jamie Lynn Spears' offspring? She was paid $1 million just for the interview announcing her pregnancy. Mega bucks for baby photos!

Photographer Dupes Britney Spears

Sassy Smith — Sat, 08 Dec 2007 13:01:00 GMT

It seems like that wouldn't be hard to do - dupe Britney Spears. A soggy Cheeto probably could do the job. Spears reportedly had a photographer come to her home to do a family portrait with her and her boys, Sean Preston, 2 and Jayden James, 14 months. The photos were believed to be taken for Christmas cards, however, the photographer, Dani Brubaker sent out a press release bragging about the photo shoot.

A source said to MSNBC: "She's just another person in a long line of people trying to profit from Britney Spears. Britney had no confidentiality agreement in place, so this photographer was able to tell the world that this photo shoot, which was meant to be a sweet family affair, not a publicity stunt, took place. She was choosing a photographer who had no reason to be faithful to Britney."

"Who knows whether Dani will turn around down the road and sell the proofs. It show that there is no one advising this poor girl." Well duh, we know that. Her cousin Ali and hanger-on, Sam Lutfi certainly have zero qualifications. I suppose the photos will soon be making the internet rounds. Can't wait!

Leaked Britney Spears Pics: Baby Photoshop Me One More Time

sweatpantsmom — Sat, 10 Nov 2007 14:05:00 GMT

Photos from Brithey Spears disastrous OK! Magazine photo shoot have been leaked online. How heavily retouched are they? Let's put it this way - I could probably do a more realistic-looking rendering of Spears on my Etch-A-Sketch. You may recall hearing about this shoot back in July, where Britney wiped her greasy hands on a pricey silk dress, took repeated bathroom breaks without closing the door and sat and watched as her dog took a crap on a $6,700 Zac Posen gown. To top it off, Spears reportedly left with $14,000 worth of OK!s borrowed clothing. Gimme more free stuff!

At the time OK! said the photos taken were of such bad quality that they were unpublishable. I guess that was before they sat their Photoshop artist at his desk, locked the poor guy in his office and told him not to come out until he had shaved twenty pounds off Britney’s legs and made her look like she was shot through fifteen layers of gauze.

And the worst part? I hate to admit it, but she looks pretty good.
