Drunk Girls Part 2: Who's Your Diddy?
When we last left our trio of tastelessness they were sneaking into Crown Bar with Paris Hilton. Well, looks like they made their way out with Diddy ... and some more booze in their bellies.

Coldplay still hot on U.K. chart
Album, single holding down No. 1 spots
LONDON -- Coldplay's international chart domination was extended Sunday as it scored a double triumph on the new U.K. sales charts. As "Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends" (Parlophone/EMI) started a second week as Britain's No. 1 album, "Viva La Vida" debuted atop the singles survey to become the band's first U.K. No. 1 hit.
The album stayed ahead of Duffy's "Rockferry" (A&M/Universal), which moved back from No. 3 to No. 2 in its 16th chart week, changing places with Neil Diamond's "Home Before Dark" (Columbia). Northern dance label All Around the World won another notable chart victory as hardcore DJ-producer Darren Styles' "Skydivin'" entered at No. 4.
U.K. rock trio Feeder debuted at No. 8 with its sixth studio album, "Silent Cry" (Echo), and Sara Bareilles' "Little Voice" (Columbia/Sony BMG) made its U.K. debut at No. 9, as the single "Love Song" moved up again from No. 5 to No. 4.
There was a No. 11 start for critically lauded Seattle band Fleet Foxes' self-titled debut on Bella Union and a remarkable No. 16 start for late Beach Boy Dennis Wilson's revived 1977 solo set "Pacific Ocean Blue" (Epic/Sony BMG). Veteran English entertainer Petula Clark's "Then & Now -- The Very Best Of" (UMTV/Universal) came in at No. 17 and "Strength in Numbers" (Polydor), the third album by Leeds rock band The Music, at No. 19.
Coldplay's No. 1 start on the singles chart follows the recent No. 8 peak for first single "Violet Hill," and is the band's eighth U.K. top 10 hit. It outdoes their previous highest-ranking releases "In My Place" and "Speed of Sound," which peaked at No. 2 in 2002 and 2005, respectively. "Violet Hill" rose 12-11 on the new chart as another track from the "Vida" album, "Lost!", climbed 62-55 on download sales.
The new singles chart also saw Ne-Yo's "Closer" (Def Jam/Universal) climbing 3-2 and Chris Brown's "Forever" (Jive/Sony BMG) 8-5. Brown has two concurrent top 10 titles, as Jordin Sparks' "No Air" (RCA/Sony BMG), on which he features, jumped 22-10. There was a No. 14 entry for "We Made It" (Interscope/Universal) by Busta Rhymes featuring Linkin Park, as the Jonas Brothers' first European single "SOS" (Hollywood/EMI) came in at No. 16.
Duffy continues her reign on Billboard's pan-European sales charts, with "Rockferry" in a third consecutive and sixth aggregate week atop European Top 100 Albums. "Mercy" leads Eurochart Hot 100 Singles for a second straight week, and third overall.

No charges for Britney Spears
Britney Spears is no longer in trouble for running over anybody's foot. Prosecutors have announced that they will not be pursuing charges brought by a paparazzo who was injured last year in a scuffle with Spears's car.
At the time of the incident, Spears's vehicle was surrounded with photographers, and in all the furore, one of these fellows had his foot squashed. A report by Los Angeles County prosecutors described "a lot of noise and confusion" at the scene, with Spears "driving at an extremely slow rate of speed and in a straight path".
After examining police records and a video of the incident, deputy district attorney Joseph D Shidler said that the "only way the victim's foot could have been where the video indicates it to be was by the victim placing it in that location".
The photographer filed a criminal complaint against Spears in early May, almost six months after the injury was sustained. The victim was not named in the prosecutors' report.
While the injured paparazzo may have been fishing for publicity, a court settlement or just a quality photo, we like to imagine he had something more modest in mind - a tyre-crushed foot is, after all, a semi-permanent kind of autograph.

Strictly star blamed herself for affair
'Strictly Come Dancing' star Alesha Dixon has revealed that she blamed herself for her husband's affair.
The 29-year-old singer told Company magazine that she was devastated when she found out that her husband, rapper MC Harvey, was having an affair with singer Javine Hylton.
Dixon said: "It was like my whole world had just collapsed around me. I thought, 'what have I done to deserve this?'"
"I'm a big believer in karma, and I felt I must have done something to invite it into my life. I tried to take the blame."
The former Misteeq singer said she was also angry after recently discovering that former bosses had wanted her to shed some weight.
"I found out the other day that, a while ago, some old bosses asked someone to have a word with me about losing weight. It's disgusting."
She said: "I'm not overweight and I'm not skinny, so to tell me to lose weight - what kind of message is that to girls?"
Dixon also revealed that she put her wedding dress on eBay after her marriage fell apart.
"It turned out the person who bid for it was a hoaxer, so I took it off eBay and never put it back up," she said.
