Prince Harry has been pulled out of Afghanistan by British army chiefs and is heading home, PEOPLE has confirmed.

His position as a frontline soldier became untenable once the news broke Thursday that he had been secretly fighting against the Taliban since before Christmas.

“Following a detailed assessment of the risks by the operational chain of command, the decision has been taken … to withdraw Prince Harry from Afghanistan immediately,” the Ministry of Defense confirmed in a statement. “This decision has been taken primarily on the basis that the worldwide media coverage of Prince Harry in Afghanistan could impact on the security of those who are deployed there, as well as the risks to him as an individual soldier.”

Planned to Stay Until April

The 23-year-old – who is a second lieutenant in the Blues and Royals regiment of the Household Cavalry – had been scheduled to stay on the front lines in the country until April. But “the situation has now clearly changed,” the statement continues, calling the news leak by some foreign media outlets “regrettable.”

The decision is likely a major disappointment for the prince, who has said in a series of interviews that he was relishing the opportunity to put his training into action.

“[I] finally get the chance to actually do the soldiering I wanted to do from ever since I joined,” he told reporters, including the U.K.’s Press Association. Of his late mother, Diana, he added, “Hopefully she would be proud.”

Harry’s performance had been called “exemplary” by the British army head. “He has been fully involved in operations and has run the same risks as everyone else in his Battlegroup,” said the chief of general staff, General Sir Richard Dannatt. “He is a credit to the nation.”

It is not known when Prince Harry is due back in the U.K.

Justin Timberlake has taken all these stupid ass photos for promotion for his new movie The Love Guru. I thought JT was trying to get serious roles ever since he tried his “serious” acting hand in the movie Alpha Dog. I guess no one wants him for a good movie so he was left to make this shitty movie with Mike Myers and Jessica “I can’t act” Alba. I won’t be seeing it. And Justin Timberlake is totally beginning to annoy me. He thinks he is way funnier and way more awesome than he really is. And Mike Myers is old news. I don’t care how funny he used to be, he’s done. Let’s get some fresh people in these movies and actually try to make ‘em funny!

Angelina Jolie is always trying to bend over backwards to be so different. Girlfriend needs to chill out and just be normal. Why can’t she just have her baby at Cedars Sinai and name her Kate like a normal person? Why must she travel out of the country and name her something with a deep meaning? Sometimes it seems like they try so hard that it seems like they’re always working to stay famous. Sad. Here’s the scoop on the new baby:

Angelina’s mum, actress Marcheline Bertrand, died last year and the star wants to embrace her French heritage by bringing up her new tot over there. After months of house-hunting Brad and Angelina - who revealed her bump in a tight black dress at the weekend - have bought a chateau in the south of France and plan to make it their family home…The source added: “Angelina is proud of her French roots and wants her latest addition to be born and raised there.”

I guess its sort of sweet but mostly just over-the-top. They need to stop having babies, stop adopting babies, stop wearing fake hair (BRAD this means YOU!), and stop being attention whores. This, however, will never happen. Another famous couple has to do something MORE over-the-top than them for that to happen and you know Angie’s not having that.

Well, I guess the plus is that if they have the baby in France we won’t have to see their ugly mugs for a while. That’s nice to know, right?

Dear Jared Leto,

I know the tight pleather jacket probably gets a lot of breezies hitting on you all the time, but it’s a bit too small and it looks like something Danny Bonaduce would’ve worn ten years ago. In addition to this, I want you to know that only female celebrities should have nipple slips. That being said, you should probably thing about buttoning up that sexy shirt.. or just give it back to the serial killer that you stole it from. Now that we have those things out of the way, let’s talk about how you’re sitting. I already think you’re a horrific diva and sitting like that only furthers my suspicious that your divaness is coming from a deeply rooted gay thing you have going on. (Kissing Paris Hilton and sleeping with the sluts in Hollywood only makes me think you’re covering up something) No matter what Krista Ayne says, I still have my suspicions. And if you are gay, I must warn you that the gays don’t like mullets. In fact, I don’t think anyone is into mullets anymore so you might consider cutting your hair. And giving it a wash cause that slicked back cholo thing isn’t working for you. Oh, and, blowing on soup and munching on salad is extremely gay. If you’re going to do that, do it at home so we’re not forced to watch you be gay right in front of our eyes. Better yet, just stay at home and stop making emo music and thinking you’re a rockstar. We’re all better off without you. Panic Room was good, yes, but in general, you suck. Just wanted you to know.

Kisses,

Hollywood Headache

P.S. Just a little FYI for you. Your beard looks like the pube-beard on Jackass 2 and its definitely disgusting.

Remember when I wrote that Ashlee Simpson was engaged to Pete Wentz and possibly pregnant with their child last July? Well that turned out to be a big fat lie. But now the same rumor is going around and I PROMISE* this time it’s 100% true. Here’s the proof:

Pete recently posted a blog online announcing the couples’ plans to make something that cannot be illegally downloaded, hinting at a baby. In the bizarre video message, Ashlee and Pete, who have dated since last summer, also reveal that the “release date” is July 2008, before Ashlee poses with a cushion stuffed under her top.

If you’re interested, you can CLICK HERE to watch that bizarre video. It’s not bizarre at all. In fact, its stupid, just like Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz. It makes me hate them both more because they’re trying so hard to produce this funny, viral video and instead it just further proves what tweaks they are.  And if you like Cheetos (don’t be afraid to admit it just cause Britney gave ‘em a bad rep) then don’t watch this video cause they’ll be ruined for you.

It’s official! Using their song lyrics and blog, the Spice Girls bid a final farewell Wednesday to cap the conclusion of their successful reunion tour.

“Our time is up … we’ve come to the end of the road … there are tears of both sadness and joy. Look how far we’ve come!,” the group wrote on their Web site. “Yes, our reunion tour is proof that dreams do come true.”

The letter to fans on the Spice blog was signed with love from Emma [Bunton], Geri [Halliwell], Mel B [Brown], Melanie C [Chisolm] and Victoria [Beckham] after concluding a song best summed up their feelings:

“Goodbye my friend, it’s not the end … So glad we made it, time will never ever change it … ”

The Spice Girls, who last year reunited for the first time since 1998 and completed shows in Europe and the U.S., closed their tour with a show in Toronto Tuesday night. They were originally scheduled to go to Australia and South America, but family obligations and an already overextended timeline wouldn’t allow for it.

As for whether the Spice Girls are done for good or just taking another break, the ladies write, “We look to the future with hope and imagination and let Girl Power live on through all of you as it will continue in us and the future generations to come.”

Nicole Kidman admitted to miscarrying a baby when she was with Tom Cruise. Now she’s pregnant with her current husband’s, Keith Urban, baby. You’d think she’d be treating this pregnancy so delicately since this will be her first real kid. (Kidman has two adopted kids, Isabella and Connor, wit Tom Cruise but apparently doesn’t give a shit about them and never sees them.) But according to Cindy Adams, Nicole drinks and doesn’t care:

Boozing backstage during the Oscarcast is a no-no. But if you’re pregnant Nicole Kidman it’s a yes- yes. She wanted white wine. She got it. . . .

That’s not good! Of course, my mom said before she knew she was pregnant she went out with her friends and got shitfaced off peppermint schnapps when she was pregnant with my sister and nothing happened. I guess you just have to be careful, drink in moderation! Her kid is going to be so messed up anyway that it won’t matter if she was drinking white wine. All the pills will do more damage!
