It’s been barely five minutes since Rosie O’Donnell split from her longterm partner Kelli Carpenter — and she’s already on the lookout for a replacement.

Target number one is Natasha Lyonne.

Rosie recently revealed she was enamoured with the American Pie actress.

And she pounced on her crush at an off-Broadway bash on Monday.

We’re not convinced Natasha’s totally OK about the romance — judging by the face she’s pulling here!

You probably won’t recognise Reeve Carney…

He’s only had a handful of movie and TV roles to date — but the 26 year old is about to become the latest comic-book webslinger, after he was cast to play Spider-Man on Broadway.

Yes, that’s right, the $50 million Broadway spectacular will go ahead next year, after financial problems derailed it in 2009.

A new producer has been hired and the Bono and The Edge-scored stage show will debut ’sometime in 2010′.

Of course it could turn out to be the biggest flop in Broadway history — but with a cast including Evan Rachel Wood and Alan Cumming and music that’s  likely to be pretty good, we think it’s going to be worth checking out.

Sienna Miller looked like her dress had been attacked by moths at last night’s opening night of her new Broadway show After Miss Julie.

And it wasn’t the only thing in tatters, according to theatre critics — who’ve given the show a bit of a savaging.

Variety described her as “out of her depth” while the New York Times criticised the lack of chemistry with her love interest, played by Jonny Lee Miller.

The normally bubbly Sharon Osbourne was all doom and gloom on Wednesday, while filming the upcoming Celebrity Apprentice 3 in New York City.

Perhaps she was worried about daughter Kelly injuring her foot in the U.S. show Dancing with the Stars?

Either that or she is hugely regretting signing up for Donald Trump’s reality show…

What has he got them doing?

Christopher Lloyd is a grump at Christmas – a year after playing miser Scrooge in a Los Angeles stage production of A Christmas Carol, he’s signed up to play The Grinch throughout the holiday period.

The Back To The Future star doesn’t have an awful lot to smile about these days – his Carol at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood was a big flop a year ago and last November (08), wildfires destroyed the $11 million Montecito home he was trying to sell.

Here’s hoping a little Grinch-mas magic in Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas! cheers him up a bit.

And here’s an ironic titbit – Jim Carrey, who played the Grinch on the big screen, will be playing Scrooge on the big screen this holiday season.
