Denise’s dad was a snoop
If you think Denise Richards is a little crazy now, imagine what she was like as a teenager.
She must have been pretty wild, because her devious dad actually had her phone tapped.
Richards says, “He had this device. He could hear everything. Me and my sister would sneak out and lie to him and we couldn’t figure out how he knew everything.”
The actress is currently on a charm offensive, trying to undo some of the bad publicity she got from her super-messy split with Charlie Sheen.
But so far all she’s told us is that she’s had three boob jobs and she grew up in Cold War Berlin.
What’s next? We can’t wait.

Rhys Meyers greets the fans
Jonathan Rhys Meyers of The Tudors nicely posed for pictures with fans outside Chateau Marmont in L.A. on Saturday night. Presumably this isn’t part of the compulsive Method prep Rhys Meyers undertakes for his role as Henry VIII on the Showtime program.
Rhys Meyers recently denied having gone to rehab and insisted that his wild-man reputation is greatly exaggerated — though he did admit to having visited a counselor.

The Michael Jacksons celebrate swine-flu Mardi Gras
King of Pop Michael Jackson, whose compulsion to shop should probably be reined in by one of his advisors given near-constant stories about Jacko’s impending financial ruin over the last few years, took kids Paris, Prince, and Blanket antiquing at Off The Wall antiques in L.A. on Monday. Jacko is at far right, with the surgical mask on — and the presence of swine flu at the top of the news hour the last few days means he’s probably smart to wear it this time instead of, you know, a weirdo.
No clue what’s going on with the masquerade-ball masks on the kids, since you can kind of still recognize them anyway, but we like the pairing of the masks with their Harry Potter-esque private-school uniforms.

The madness of King Henry
Jonathan Rhys Meyers took his preparation for TV series The Tudors to fanatical lengths, “becoming” Henry VIII while playing the English king…and staying in character for the entire five-and-a-half-month shoot.
The rationale? Rhys Meyers looks nothing like the 16th-century monarch, so he chose to immerse himself in Henry day in and day out while filming the upcoming third season of the show. The actor explains, “I never left the character for the whole 5 1/2 months I shot it.”
“What I do is isolate myself while I’m shooting it. I lived in a house on my own. It’s very Spartan, I don’t have luxuries. I go to the gym, all of this almost physical meditation. That’s what it takes, because I don’t look like Henry, so I have to do more to be Henry VIII.
