Shaking off a recent ankle injury, Madonna kicked off her highly-awaited “Sticky & Sweet” world tour Saturday night (August 23) with a performance at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium in Wales.

According to press on-hand, "an army of fans wearing pink cowboy hats and boas waited nearly two hours for Madonna's concert to get under way, erupting into screams at the first song — Candy Shop."

Reports from the Associated Press add: "The show itself includes eight costume changes, 16 dancers, and $1.85 million worth of Swarovski crystals. It is billed as a musical mishmash of gangsta pimp, Romanian folk, rave, and a nod to the blonde material-girl's roots in the 80s New York City dance scene."

Now that the opening show is out of the way, Madge's “Sticky & Sweet” tour will travel through Europe, with big night's at London's Wembley Stadium on September 11 and Paris on September 20 topping the bill. Then it's off to North America in October before the tour's end in Sao Paulo, Brazil on December 18.

Enjoying a work-free weekend, Miley Cyrus and a friend took their beach cruisers out in Toluca Lake on Saturday morning (August 23).

The "Hannah Montana" singer/actress and her pal went for a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood, stopping at Paty's Diner for some breakfast.

An onlooker tells: "The two seemed to have a great time and when their ride was interrupted multiple times by fans, Miley didn't seem to mind as she happily posed for photos and signed autographs."

Meanwhile, as previously reported by Gossip Girls, Miley is throwing a big Sweet 16 birthday bash at Disneyland in October.

Of her birthday wish, the Disney starlet recently told Radio Disney: "I definitely want to get something bad on the road... that's big enough for all my friends and to scare all the cars away from me. I'm a good driver but it's everyone else that I'm worried about!"

We all remember back in the day when she used to tool around Los Angeles with the likes of Sam Lutfi and Adnan Ghalib. And now Britney Spears has a new joyriding partner - her bodyguard.

The “Piece of Me” songstress was spotted cruising around town with the top on her white Mercedes Benz down yesterday (August 22) joined by her hunky protector, with whom she’s also rumored to be romantically involved.

According to the paparazzi, she drove around for hours without any particular destination, though they looked like they were really enjoying each other’s company.

And with the romantic void that has existed in her life, it stands to reason that Brit Brit may have found a new object for her affection.

Needing to get away from the constant hounding as a result of her relationship with oil heir Balthazar Getty, Sienna Miller was spotted de-stressing at sea over the weekend.

Joining a few friends, Sienna sipped on a glass of wine and smoked cigarettes as she chatted/soaked up the rays aboard a boat making its way around Spain's Illes Pitiüses group.

The holiday comes after the "Factory Girl" actress arrived at her London home earlier this week after living in Los Angeles with Balthazar as of late. When she got home, Sienna found that vandals had defaced her home - spraypainting vulgarities on the outside wall.

With the uproar over her budding romance with the married mogul, Sienna's mother Jo has come to her daughter's defense, saying: "You can't understand how a woman seeing a man who has been separated from his wife for months can cause such a scandal. It's awful, I can't tell you. You wonder when it's all going to stop."

With the Summer 2008 Olympic Games going on way over in Bejing, China, it seems that Jennifer Garner may have caught a bit of Olympic Fever.

The “Alias” babe was spotted kicking it into high gear as she literally sprinted into the Hotel Bel Air yesterday (August 22) in an attempt to avoid the paparazzi.

After all, ever since she announced that she’s pregnant with her second child, the shutterbugs have been on high alert to try and get a shot of her growing baby bump.

And despite her efforts to avoid being photographed, a few crafty lensmen managed to catch a quick glimpse of Jen’s ever-growing midsection.

While most celebrities have high-paid assistants to do their dirty work, Hilary Duff seems just as happy to just do it herself.

The “War, Inc.” actress was spotted out and about in Los Angeles yesterday (August 22) running all kinds of errands, from dropping off her dry cleaning to stopping into a gift card and wrapping paper store.

And despite her tedious schedule, Miss Duff still managed to look hot, sporting a grey tank top along with a pair of black stretch pants and an oversized black handbag.

After her boyfriend Mike Comrie dropped $100 grand on a Mercedes Benz for her birthday last year, you gotta wonder what Hilary has in mind for his big day, coming up on September 11th.

Clearly enjoying her new single status, Jennifer Aniston was spotted out and about in New York City doing a little shopping earlier this week.

The “Rumor Has It” hottie looked scorching in a graphite-colored tube top along with a pair of belted baggy jeans with sandals and sunglasses.

Miss Aniston stopped into the Fred Leighton Rare Collectable Jewels on swanky Madison Avenue to pick up some bling bling as the paparazzi snapped up a few shots.

Earlier this week, Jen’s ex John Mayer cleared up rumors about their split, confirming that there wasn’t any cheating or lying on either part.
