Miley Cyrus and Hanna Beth: Skating Mates

As previously reported by Gossip Girls, it was an afternoon of family fun for the Cyrus gang, as Miley headed out skating with family and friends in Nashville on Sunday (December 28).

The Disney tween queen and her gal pal Hanna Beth looked to be having a ball as they skated around in spangly leggings and headbands.


Meanwhile, Miley’s family and boyfriend Justin Gaston also joined in on the fun, cheering from the benches and taking to the rink themselves.

The holiday getaway comes ahead of big plans for Miss Cyrus this New Year’s Eve, as she’s been signed on to host “FNMTV Presents: A Miley-Sized Surprise… New Year’s Eve 2009”.

During the show, Miley will be surprising one lucky fan by performing her hosting duties for the show from his or her house - with the show airing live on MTV on Wednesday, December 31 from 8-9:30PM ET.

Brandy Norwood: Glamorous at Gucci

Making a holiday gift return, Brandy Norwood was spotted looking quite stylish at the Gucci boutique in Beverly Hills yesterday (December 28).

The “I Wanna Be Down” songstress smiled as she passed the paparazzi, sporting a brown sweater, slim fit jeans, and a matching Louis Vuitton boots/handbag combo.


In related news, Brandy is being sued by Donald Lite following her car crash back on December 30th of 2006, as he says he’s sustained “serious and permanent injuries.”

The plaintiff’s statement claims, “As a direct and proximate result of the negligence, carelessness and recklessness—the plaintiff suffered serious and permanent injuries all of which have caused, and continue to cause pain, suffering and nervousness.”

Paris Hilton and Her BFF: Shopping in Australia

They’re down under prepping for a big New Year’s Eve bash, and earlier today (December 29) Paris Hilton and her BFF Brittany Flickinger were spotted out and about in Melbourne, Australia.

The “Stars are Blind” songstress and her best gal pal were joined by Paris’ sister Nicky and her longtime beau David Katzenberg as they did some shopping at the Wayne Cooper store.

And all three ladies seemed to be fighting off some serious jet lag, as they all sported sunglasses as they tried on various dresses during their retail romp.

Earlier in the day, Miss Hilton treated her fans to a brief meet and greet after arriving on a flight from Los Angeles. The Herald-Sun reported, “Paris signed autographs and Playboy magazines for the throng of fans who had turned out for her arrival. The posse quickly left the airport and headed into a black Lexus bound for South Yarra’s Como hotel.”

Paris Hilton and Her BFF: Night Out in Melbourne

Enjoying all of the luxuries afforded by her notoriety, Paris Hilton was spotted arriving at the Stokehouse restaurant in St. Kilda, Melbourne this evening (December 29).

Accompanied by her BFF Brittany Flickinger, the “Simple Life” hottie looked beautiful in a spaghetti-strap floral print dress teamed with white heels and a purple clutch.

And it sounds like Miss Hilton may have lost out on an extra paycheck during her time in Australia, as her tour organizers failed to seal an endorsement deal with Southern Star Observation Wheel.

Not to fear though, Paris is said to be making upwards of $600,000 just for showing her face at the Bongo Virus New Year’s Eve party, held at Sydney’s exclusive Piano Room.
