Random Faces

America's Next Top Beanpole
A year after failing to make the casting cut, 20-year-old Jaslene Gonzalez is the last strutter standing on America's Next Top Model's eighth cycle, becoming the first Latina to nab the title. No word yet on whether she'll be the first winner to maintain a career.

Drama Queen
Lindsay Lohan caps a tumultuous weekend—in which she crashed her car, was cited for driving under the influence, possessed what cops deemed "a usable amount" of a substance believed to be cocaine and was briefly hospitalized for injuries to her chest only to resume her party-till-you-drop regime hours later—by checking into rehab. This time, the actress opts for Promises Malibu after her adventure in Wonderland apparently didn't take.

This Just In
Justin Timberlake announces the launch of his own record label, Tennman Records, of which he serves as chairman and CEO. Timberlake will announce his roster of artists in the coming weeks, allowing fellow beat-boxing connoisseur Blake Lewis plenty of time to keep dreaming the dream. Funny, though: All this time we thought Timberlake was trying to be the next Michael Jackson—turns out it was Jay-Z he had his eye on.

What's in a Name?
Pax Thien Jolie officially becomes Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt after a Santa Monica court approves the surname change to more accurately reflect the boy's double A-list parentage. The switch is simply a formality and isn't expected to affect the name used by the rest of the world in connection with the three-year-old: Lucky S.O.B.
