Paul Walker and Vin Diesel got busy on the set of The Fast and the Furious 5 in Puerto Rico today (July 30).

Between filming action-packed scenes in the busy streets, the hunky co-stars could be seen sharing a laugh in their matching police cars.

The working title of the flick is Fast Five and it is set to be in 3D.

As for how many more Fast and Furious flicks we can expect? At least one more.

In an interview producer Neal H. Moritz revealed a sixth picture is now in development.

After kicking off their latest publciity stunt in June, when Heidi Montag went to court seeking a legal separation from her husband Spencer Pratt, now comes news that she’s filed for divorce. For real, says People mag.

The 23-year-old plastic surgery enthusiast cites irreconcilable differences in the petition filed in Santa Monica, CA Superior Court.

And her lawyer Jodeane Farrell says: “The couple has agreed they would like their divorce to be finalized in a timely manner in an out of court settlement. Both parties are amicable with each other and over the possibility of finalizing their divorce.”

Vanessa Hudgens was spotted arriving at a Los Angeles studios this morning (July 30) with a few heavy looking bags.

The Beastly actress had her hands full as well with what looks like a container of food, car keys and two large bags in a relaxed outfit.

The Disney star’s bag looked like a food cooler of some sort — could Vanessa be on a new diet plan?

Meanwhile, Vanessa’s longtime beau Zac Efron was on Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote his new film Charlie St. Cloud earlier this week, and as you can presume, the topic of his recent strip club visit came up.

Zac confirms that he went to the club, but he thought it was going to be different. “I’ve heard a lot of about these places — mostly from rap music. They’re supposed to be pretty reputable, so I envisioned myself on a nice couch with T-Pain and Usher making it rain money. And it wasn’t like that.”

Jimmy asked if Zac spent $2000, as alleged. He joked, “No, I spent more like 6… thousand.”

Zac went on to say that he did call his lady love to ask her if it was alright. He found it extremely difficult. “The hardest thing was calling your girlfriend before. That’s the awkward part,” he explained. “How do you even start that conversation without feeling like a total assh*le?

Chewing on an toothpick in his gold frame aviator sunglasses, Zac Efron flashed the camera with his sexiest stare as he headed to his car after dropping of his sweetheart Vanessa Hudgens in Hollywood on Thursday (July 29).

Meanwhile, Charlie St. Cloud, Zac’s first foray into dramatic roles, opens nationwide today — and by new reviews, you might be better off staying at home.

Per the AP:

Zac Efron and the rest of the crew behind “Charlie St. Cloud” want their movie to be weepy, soulful, inspirational, cathartic, ethereal, life-affirming and who knows what else on the New Age emotional barometer.

Too bad they didn’t aim to make it a little interesting.

This melodrama about a young man who puts his life in stasis after his kid brother’s death is a bore, despite a somewhat clever twist — somewhat because it momentarily jolts the story out of the doldrums before the movie settles back to sleep.

While Efron aims to show he’s more than just a “High School Musical” heartthrob, he’s vacuous in the title role here, sleepwalking through what’s meant to be a journey from the deepest despair toward new hope.

The sailing images are lovely, the seascape is bleakly beautiful, and the town is pretty as a postcard. Efron certainly looks pretty, too, and since he’s there for almost every frame of “Charlie St. Cloud,” maybe that’s enough for his young fans, even if no one’s home behind Charlie’s cloudy eyes.

Tara Reid’s career may be over — but her love of partying will live eternally.

Joined by her on-again, off-again fiance Michael Axtmann, the 34-year-old former actress was her old sh*tfaced self as she attended the AXE Boat Party in Saint Tropez, France on Thursday night (July 29).

Earlier this year, Tara claimed to have cleaned up her life after spending 60 days at Promises rehab clinic in Malibu — but these new photos tell a different story.

Her hair messy and dishevelled, Tara

Paris Hilton showed off her sexy “tri-kini” in Ibiza, Spain on Thursday (July 29) where the heiress enjoyed herself on the set of her new video with her fun-spirited back-up dancers.

While on the set, the 29-year-old aspiring pop star tweeted a photo and wrote: “The background in this music video is amazing! And no that’s not me in the disco ball!”

After a long day on the set, Paris headed back to her villa, ordered in some Italian and watched Sex and the City. “This is the chillest time I’ve ever had in Ibiza,” she says. “Relaxing.”

Meanwhile, it appears Paris’ friends end up with a lot of her clothes because she will not wear anything twice.

“I never wear an outfit more than once unless it’s like a cool pair of jeans or a leather jacket,” she says.

Miss Hilton adds: “I have so many clothes in my closets that still have labels on. I either give them to friends or charity.”

Ali Larter picked up some clothes in Beverly Hills on Thursday (July 29) where the very pregnant Heroes actress proudly showed off her growing bump in a skintight black dress.

Ali spent the afternoon picking out some clothes before heading to the ARCADE Boutique in Beverly Hills to attend teh Communities in Schools Shopping event hosted by Rochelle Gores Fredston.

Meanwhile, Ali says she and her husband, writer/actor Hayes MacArthur, fled Los Angeles for Europe during the first few months of her pregnancy because she “wasn’t ready” to share her happy news with the world.

The 34-year-old star admits she kept the exciting news under wraps for months before stepping out with her growing baby bump, because she wanted to enjoy the early stages of her pregnancy in private.

“It was a very private time for me and my husband and something that I just wasn’t ready to share, so we actually left the country for a while,” she says. “This was something that I wasn’t ready to share yet. So we came back from Europe, and I said to my husband, ‘I just want to go to lunch with my girlfriends. I just want to live my life.’ I was four months (pregnant) and it was just time to start living my life.”

The baby is due this winter.

Riding high on the success of Inception, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is already busy at work on his next project.

The 29-year-old actor and his co-star Dania Ramirez showed great chemistry as they prepped to film scenes on Thursday (July 29) for their latest film Premium Rush, currently filming on location in New York City.

Directed by David Koepp, the upcoming action thriller tells the tale of a bike messenger in New York City who picks up a package at Columbia University and subsequently catches the attention of a dirty cop.

Meanwhile, Heroes babe Dania has dismissed ongoing rumours she wed music video director Jessy Terrero, insisting they never married and have now split. The Dominican beauty admits she’s been dogged by speculation about her relationship with Terrero, who has directed promos for artists such as Lionel Richie, 50 Cent and Akon.

But Dania insists she’s a single woman, and the ex-couple has not been together for quite some time. However, the star is refusing to go into further detail about the split in a bid to avoid fueling the gossip. She says, “You shouldn’t believe everything you hear (sic) on the internet. He was a great guy (who) I was with for a while, and I’m not (now).”

Kim Kardashian had heads turning as she spent the afternoon shopping in Los Angeles today (July 29).

Rocking a Miami Vice-inspired style, the 29-year-old tabloid star rocked white ripped jeans and black blazer as she satisfied her retail therapy urge.

Meanwhile, Kim’s half sister Kendall Jenner has spoken out about her recent bikini shots after critics considered the pictures too sexy for a 14-year-old.

During a recent interview with People, Kendall defended her outfit, insisting that she donned something she would wear if she went to the beach with friends.

“Going into this shoot, it was never my intention to be provocative or too racy. It was a beach shoot, and I was wearing beachwear,” she explained. “I am happy with my age, and am not trying to rush into anything too soon. I look forward to all the milestones my teens have to offer Sweet 16, turning 18, and so on.”

Kendall further revealed that pursuing modeling is something that she loves to do. She said, “I am excited to be working as a model, doing what I love to do. My entire family was very supportive, though my dad [Bruce Jenner] was a bit concerned at first, he knows that I am responsible enough that I wouldn’t do anything I wasn’t ready to do, or didn’t want to do.”

Although Kendall is still 14, Luc Brinker, her agent from famed modeling agency Wilhelmina, believes that the young wannabe starlet is a potential model. Luc stated, “Kendall exudes such a high level of confidence and know how for her age. I’m sure that it comes from having such a great family that gives her endless support and is constantly encouraging her to shine. I think it’s the most important thing that a young models can have.”

President Barack Obama made an appearance on The View today (July 29) and he chatted about the economy, Jersey Shore, Chelsea Clinton‘s pending nuptials, racism and more.

As for how he did?

Blogging at The Daily Beast, Meghan McCain says:

“Once again it was all smoke and mirrors, not surprising for a president known for his poetic use of language. I found the president’s appearance pretty predictable and his answers very rehearsed. I mean, how many times can he talk about how he has Jay-Z on his iPod? …

In other words, I think you will react to President Obama’s appearance on The View depending on how you already feel about him. If you are a fan and haven’t had your opinions changed very much by his last 20 months in office, then he was witty; cute when talking about his daughters; and poignant when discussing race issues in America, and why he doesn’t identify as biracial.

It was just pretty much the same as I always get from President Obama. Our president is charming and knows what to say to sound appealing, but for some reason this is still a man I—and many Americans—continue not to find particularly genuine. I found myself zoning out a few times during the interview, and concentrating more on Sherri Shepherd’s cute outfit and hair than what the “thorn and rose” of his administration was so far.”

How about you?
