• Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are still doing what they can to save the world. Last year they donated $6.4 million to charities—that's more than double what they gave the previous year.

• Adam Lambert is getting all the attention he could ever dream of after last night's "shocking" performance.

• Have you ever wondered what Katie Couric booty dancing might look like? It's your lucky day! Happy Almost Thanksgiving!

• Creed's Scott Stapp is talking about the sex tape where he and Kid Rock get blow jobs on a tour bus. He would prefer if we didn't call it a sex tape because, "well, there's no sex on the sex tape," he says. "For it to get characterized that way, I mean, that kind of sucks." Celebrities have really gotten picky about how we label their sex tapes.

• Well, this is probably one of the dumbest fake Robert Pattinson quotes we've read (but too dumb not to share!): "People ask me to bite them and want to touch my hair. I just don't want someone to have a needle and give me HIV and I don't want to get shot or stabbed."

On the eve of New Moon's opening, it's only natural O.G. cinema vamp Brad Pitt would want a share of the spotlight.

And what Pitt wants, Pitt gets, this time courtesy of the news that he's set to develop—and most likely take the lead role in—a big screen adaptation of Dark Void, a forthcoming shoot-'em-up video game.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Pitt would ostensibly star as Will, a cargo pilot who finds himself in a parallel universe after crashing in the Bermuda Triangle. He and his outnumbered crew, along with their mysterious, unnamed "powers," end up fighting aliens that the previously presumed to be extinct.

The film-inspiring game is released in January.

When you're as shiny as Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, it would stand to reason that you would create shiny things too, right?

Hollywood's most golden couple have teamed with high-end jeweler Asprey for a capsule collection called "The Protector," according to Women's Wear Daily. The shimmering gold and silver accessories are inspired by snakes.

You know, because nothing says precious metals and stones like slithering creatures. And dudes with really hideous beards.

The limited edition collection hits stores this week, with prices starting at $525 for a silver baby spoon. Proceeds benefit Education Partnership for Children of Conflict, which Angie co-founded.

Apparently, the mega-mama received a snake ring just before giving birth to Shiloh and she considered it a protector of her family.

Speaking of families, you'll never guess who else is designing glittery baubles…

Stop the international presses! Brad Pitt is kinda, maybe, sorta interested in buying himself another motorcycle.

This is the breaking news flash out of Tokyo this morning, where the Beautiful Bearded One is currently making the promotional rounds for Inglourious Basterds, which is finally opening in Japan.

"I had a little mishap," he explained when asked about his pavement-pounding, paparazzi-captured bike topple last week.

"No injuries, except my ego. I was trying to get away from some paparazzi and instead gave them a good story."

Actually, Brad, "good" may be overselling it a bit, but we'll assume that after three months on the publicity trail, any new talking point is welcomed with open arms.

"It was my favorite bike, so that is really sad."

Not Iraqi-refugees-in-Syria sad, mind you, but still a bit of a bummer. And a rather easily fixable one, at that.

"I will definitely be looking at motorcycles," he said. "You've got some of the best builders right here."

Something tells us this guy would beg to differ. But domo arigato all the same.

Did you hear the one about Brad Pitt's motorcycle mishap?

Countless reports of the chopper spill have been circulating cyberspace all afternoon, and while both Los Angeles and Beverly Hills Police Departments confirm that there have been no accidents reported, we've complied a little collection of what we know thus far.

Sources tell E! News that the incident wasn't much of an accident, but rather Pitt's mirror nicked the mirror of an adjacent car and he lost balance on his bike. His motorcycle reportedly wouldn't start after it fell to the ground, so the star called his security team for a lift. 

The source says the other car involved in the mix-up belonged to the paparazzi, but it was Pitt who got too close.

Elsewhere, reports of the cycle spill vary. TMZ says Pitt was weaving in and out of stopped traffic and damaged his ride after clipping a parked car, while X17 has a much more elaborate version of events involving the mega-movie star falling to the ground on his bike after a too-close-for-comfort pap cut him off.

The report claims Pitt exchanged heated words with the pap, telling him to be more careful, then escaped the commotion by running into a nearby apartment complex to wait for his ride.

And finally, Radar Online says that their reporter witnessed the minor mash-up, stating that a paparazzo bumped Pitt's bike from behind, forcing his motorcycle into the rear of the car ahead. Pitt reportedly kept his cool in the aftermath, even interacting with onlookers.

The one common thread? Pitt is A-OK, uninjured and on his merry way.

And regardless of what went down today, Pitt will live to bike again.

They'll never let us forget they are more than just pretty faces. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt took time out of their schedules on Friday to bring attention to the continuing plight of the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi refugees still living in Syria.

Jolie, a United Nations goodwill ambassador, and her significant other spent time with two different families in the Syrian capital of Damascus. They also met with Syrian president Bashar al-Assad to discuss the efforts being made toward health care and education.
