From This Week's Star... -Drew Barrymore is acting like a little girl. Since she started working at 11 months old, Drew was never allowed to act like a little girl -- so she's started calling her boyfriend, Justin Long -- "daddy." How romantic. According to a source, Drew asks Justin "for permission" to go out with her friends, watch TV, and even eat candy. What does Justin think? He's happy to play along. A "source" says he "loves her so much that he has become very protective of her. That nurturing has slipped into sort of a daddy role." -Katherine Heigl hates her forehead. A source said, "Katherine was always getting teased as a kid about her high forehead. The other children would call Katherine "High-Head." She's even considered surgically lowering her hairline." The source adds, though, "Now that she's famous, she has the last laugh -- but she still can't shake those feelings." -Miley Cyrus is in top-secret negotiations to get her own talk show. She is? But she's only 15! Apparently, Miley met with Tyra Banks in Nashville recently to chat about hosting her own once-a-week show geared toward teenagers. "Tyra wants to produce a show for Miley," an insider said. "Miley already has a huge following among teen girls, so her show would likely be successful. Tyra sees Miley's potential." From This Week's Enquirer ... Britney acted like a spoiled brat when her little sister, Jamie Lynn, gave birth. First, when she arrived in Kentwood, Louisiana, for her niece's delivery, Britney behaved so strangely that she seemed to be off her meds (lord help us all!). "Britney seemed anxious and couldn't sit still. She was moody and complained about everything. Plus, she had to fly commercial, and that really put her in a foul mood," said an insider. And then, when the family headed to the hospital for the baby's birth, Britney acted like a big baby herself, whining that there was no catered food or entertainment like SHE had when she delivered little Sean Preston. Britney said: "What are we supposed to do all day? I'm hungry! There's nothing here!" Finally, once little Maddie was born, Britney made comments like, "She's so small!" "Her legs are so skinny!" And my favorite? "She doesn't look like either of the parents." LOL! -Dr. Phil's wife, Robin, kicked him out of the house when they got into a fight over her getting a little plastic surgery. Now Dr. Phil is desperate to save their marriage, begging, "Don't divorce me!" He's even offered her a bigger role in his TV empire, but Robin wants to build a career of her own. "Robin is completely fed up with Phil's self-absorption and insensitivity," a family friend said. "When Robin tried to talk to Phil about her surgery concerns, he couldn't have been less interested -- he only cared about how much it was going to cost him! Robin snapped and told him to get out." If Robin does divorce Phil, he stands to lose more than just part of his $200 million fortune ... "The truth is that Phil has a deep and abiding love for Robin, and he'd be lost without her," said an insider. -Lindsay Lohan's "girlfriend" Samantha Ronson, was seen getting cozy with another girl in the DJ booth at a club and Lindsay was nowhere in sight.
