Cutest Kid Of ‘08: Shiloh Jolie-Pitt

The battle for cutest kid was neck and neck — but Shiloh ultimately triumphed. In hindsight, it seems so obvious. How could the spawn of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie NOT result in the world’s most beautiful child? Clearly, baby Shiloh hit the genetic jackpot.

The 21 Hottest Italian Women Alive

Happy Columbus Day, you lucky people who get Monday off from work! The Italian explorer Christopher Columbus braved the murky Atlantic Ocean in search of silk, spices and other wonders of China and India (the countries he was attempting to find). Instead he landed right smack into the Bahamas, a happy accident that eventually resulted in the “discovery” of the good ol’ United States. In honor of this national holiday, Scandalist is exploring Columbus’ homeland and the goods Italy is infamous for — its women.

Which hotties are hopping into Sophia Loren’s Italian leather shoes and taking over her title as Italy’s prima donna? Peep the pics below and let us know how well we’ve rated these Italian hotties after the jump.

21. Madonna

Though she’s taken up kabballah and adopted a posh British accent, don’t be fooled: the Motor City mama was born Madonna Ciccone, and raised in a strict Italian-Catholic household. Which may account for some of her rebellion.

20. Aria Giovanni

You might be familiar with this Penthouse pet and adult film actress from such films as Alabama Jones and the Busty Crusade or Aria. And though she’s not entirely of Italian descent, she certainly is 100% hot.

19. Carla Gugino

The Entourage hottie got her start opposite another one of our Italian hotties — Alyssa Milano, on Who’s The Boss? The raven-haired fox has brains to boot with that hot bod: she was her class’ valedictorian.

At B-Day Bash For Baby Beckham, Beautiful People Only, Please

Victoria Beckham put together an A-list, superhero-themed bash for son Romeo’s 6th birthday at Universal Studios on Thursday. Of course, Posh dressed appropriately for the kid friendly star-studded event in a mini dress and designer stilettos.

Everyone in Hollywood was there with their celebrity spawn from supermodel Heidi Klum to rocker dad Gavin Rossdale minus new mom Gwen Stefani. The guest list was missing a few Beckham standards like Will Smith’s brood and Katie Holmes‘ mini me, Suri. Suri was too busy taking a very petite bite out of the big apple, while her mom rehearses for All My Sons on Broadway.

Good thing their dad, David, didn’t show up because the world couldn’t of handled that many beautiful people in one place at one time. [Photo: INF Daily]

Gavin Rossdale: World’s Best Rockstar Dad

Kingston Rossdale has to be suffering from a little jealousy now that baby bro Zuma has taken his place as Gwen Stefani’s littlest (at least you’re not named Zuma, kid), so it was nice of daddy Gavin Rossdale to take the older tot to Malibu for the day to soak in some rays, watch the water…and run into Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi! Good to see big brother’s still getting some quality time.

Welcome To Earth, Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale

Well, Gwen must o’ thought that it’s quite a joke
And it got a lot of laughs from a’ lots of folk,
It seems he’ll have to fight his whole life through, ma.
Some gal will giggle and he’ll get red
And some guy’ll laugh and he’ll bust his head,
I tell ya, life ain’t easy for a boy named “Zuma.”

Britney Babysits For Gwen Stefani

Before Gwen Stefani allegedly arrived at the hospital this morning to give birth by c-section, she did what any other mother would do: she dropped off her son at pal Britney Spears‘ house. Britney’s sons Sean Preston and Jayden James had an A-list playdate today with rock spawn Kingston Rossdale. While Gwen and hubby Gavin Rossdale are at the hospital possibly welcoming baby number two, son Kingston borrowed the Federline brothers’ toy Caddy and drove around the streets of L.A. Why be at the hospital when you can ride around in toy cars with Kevin Federline’s offspring? [Photo: X-17 Online]

Gwen Stefani: Get This Baby Out Of Me, Already!
