Montag, for those of you who want to pretend you don't know, is one of the most important reality-show stars of our time. To promote her album, the 23-year-old star of MTV's The Hills agreed to appear on a People magazine cover to show off all the plastic surgery she's gotten. She posed in Playboy, started her own fashion line and declared that as a celebrity she should not have to endure staying on the show I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me out of Here! She is the Paris Hilton of our time...

First I called 16-year-old Joseph Mendoza in Reno, Nev. Mendoza, who has a graphic-design company and was paid $28 to design the fan site Heidi-Pratt.com says he is not disappointed by Montag's album, though he adds, "I generally like all albums." He loves the way Montag portrays a villain on The Hills and in interviews and probably when she's all alone. But he really admires her husband Spencer Pratt, whom he sees as a Svengali.

Carney thinks it's highly unlikely that Montag's music career will continue: "All 658 of us are not going to rally to go to a Heidi Montag concert." If they did, it would...

...smashed her husband's skull with a heavy lead ornament. Four days later, police discovered his rotting corpse, wrapped in a carpet in the basement storeroom of the luxury apartment complex where the couple lived. An autopsy found a cocktail of sedatives in his stomach and liver. The 39-year-old mother of three was accused of giving her husband a sedative-laced milk shake before clubbing him to death, and in 2005, Kissel was convicted of premeditated murder and sentenced to life. In her first appeal, which she lost, the court called it "as cogent a case of murder...

...medalist in Olympic history on Sunday, as he compiled a time of 3 min. 13.085 sec. over four runs, 0.679 faster than his fellow countryman David Moeller. And while the event retained its festive feel - a giddy Loch hoofed it up and waved the flag like, well, a 20-year-old kid who was his luge-obsessed country's first men's gold medal in a dozen years - the awful memories of last week's accident still loomed. "It's always there," said Moeller after winning his silver medal. "Lots of my teammates say they can't look...
