While Britney Spears remained in rehab, Kevin Federline headed to Las Vegas over the weekend – with the kids.

Federline was in town for a long-planned paid appearance at the Mirage Hotel & Casino lounge Revolution.

"Kevin was really low-key," one source says. "You could definitely tell he was on his best behavior. He was having a good time, but wasn't the wild, crazy Kevin who used to come to Vegas."

In his latest trip, he arrived on Saturday with Sean Preston, 18 months, and Jayden James, 6 months, plus a nanny, his mother and brother and two bodyguards, sources say.

He had dinner with friends and family at the hotel's Japonais restaurant, says a source, who adds: "He was late for dinner because he wanted to tuck his kids into bed."

By midnight, he was relaxing at a VIP table at the Revolution with a group of friends who included Las Vegas comedian Jeff Beacher.

Spears's rehab ordeal, says a source, has matured Federline.

"He wakes up with a purpose each morning and has enjoyed his family being around him," says the source.

A rep for Federline declined to comment.

Brad Pitt is reportedly concerned that Angelina Jolie's appetite has diminished.

The Fight Club actor and Jolie's brother James Haven are said to be alarmed that the actress' weight has plummeted since her mother Marcheline died in January.

A source told Grazia: "Brad and James adore Angelina for her endless quest to make the world a better place, but they worry about her not eating or sleeping enough. Her mother Marcheline's death has put pressure on her and this may partly explain the weight loss.

"But everyone is worried that her way of coping is by throwing herself into her UN work and looking after her kids - with scant regard for herself."

Noel Gallagher and his girlfriend Sara MacDonald are expecting their first child together.

The Oasis guitarist has been dating MacDonald for seven years and is said to be delighted with the news.

A close friend of the couple told The Sun: "Noel and Sara are really, really happy and excited. This is something they both wanted but they kept the news to themselves until they were sure everything was OK with the baby.

"Neither of them have ever wanted to get married but it felt like the right time to start a family together. The last seven years have been a lot of fun and they have a huge house in the country which is perfect for the kids to be running around. They are both thrilled."

OJ Simpson could be Danielynn's dad

by lawsonjeff @ 2007-03-09 - 04:01:27

O.J. Simpson has revealed he could be the father of Anna Nicole-Smith's youngest daughter Danielynn.

The former American footballer was on good terms with the late model, and has told his friend Norman Pardo that he is a likely contender as the mystery over the child's paternity continues.

"(He) said he was throwing his hat into the ring," said Pardo, who filmed Simpson for five years as part of a documentary. "He said he knew Anna Nicole pretty well, and he said he had slow-moving sperm, and he might be the father."

However, the ex-sportsman is worried about the possible consequences of being named as Danielynn's father, as he is currently in a legal wrangle with Fred Goldman. Goldman won a civil suit concerning the murder of his son Ron, as well as Simpson's own wife Nicole.

Nardo quotes Simpson as saying: "I hope they don't do a DNA test on Anna Nicole's baby. If they find out Danielynn is mine, I don't want Fred Goldman trying to seize her money - or the baby herself."
