They’ve always seemed like one of the most miserable couples around but persistence must really pay off because folks are saying that Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are engaged. Though it’s early days yet and the tabloids are feverishly trying to lock down an exclusive, Jackson-based Tayloe Piggott Jewelry confirmed heard a rumor that Justin proposed Monday night at luxury Wyoming resort The Amangani. “Word on the street is that Justin Timberlake proposed to Jessica Biel at the Amangani last night,” the company posted on Facebook. “We’re picking out post-engagement presents for them just in case they come in! Trying to play it cool.” New York-based PR guy Kyle Schaffler is also getting in on the action, saying that it was actually the Jackson Hotel but backing up talk of a ring exchange: “I love that no media outlets know about the Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel engagement. Benefits of working in PR.” You heard it here first (if it turns out to be true)! [Lainey Gossip, IBT]
She may only be five years old but that hasn’t stopped everyone from rambling on about how fashion forward Suri Cruise is. And now papa Tom Cruise is chiming in by saying that his precocious princess is an independent, stylish woman. “Suri is fashionable, independent and picks out her own outfits. She even tells Katie and I what we should wear,” he giggled, adding that they might chuck a Kris Jenner and enter their little one into the workforce early with a fashion line. “Maybe one day.” [Celebuzz]
Continuing with the borderline creepy act of projecting adult qualities onto children, Sandra Bullock says her two-year-old son Louis is a total player – calling him a “flirt” who “appreciates the fairer sex” but thankfully leaves her out of the mix. “He doesn’t flirt with me like that, and someone told me that’s probably a good thing,” she said. “He’s got a look where he just cuts the eyes at the ladies, and I’m like, ‘I’m so sorry! I don’t know what’s happening.'” [US]
Meryl Streep may be one of the world’s best actresses but that doesn’t mean she’s always recognized as such, joking that her 14 unread Oscar speeches would be worthy of a book. “I sit there every year with a speech,” she said. “I’ve got 14 speeches I’ve never given. They’re all really good. One day I’ll put them in a book.” I’d read that. [Newstrack]
She was over the UK, hated Madrid and was looking forward to starting a brand-new life/relationship with the paps in LA but it appears that even the City of Angels and porn companies has lost its allure for Victoria Beckham, who is said to be thrilled about relocating to Paris next month. That’s right, with husband David receiving a pot of gold for signing with Paris St. Germain they are packing wee Harper and the boys and moving on over to the Mecca of college girls everywhere.

- Blame it on Who’s The Boss? but I’ve always had a thing for Tony Danza – even at 60 I reckon he’s got another 10 or so years left in him, shower nozzle masturbation material-wise – so it saddens me to know that whippersnappers at the Young Adult afterparty thought he was a total creep. [Page Six]
