Lost in Confusion: Bill Murray and Miss USA Dating?

Bill Murray's recent marriage breakup isn't keeping him down, that's for sure. Murray, 58, just had dinner with Crystle Stewart, 27-year-old Miss USA 2008. Crystle is one of the latest contestants in beauty pageants to fall down while competing.

After their dinner together, Murray was clearly happy outside the restaurant. A bunch of female fans came up to him and Murray gave them all kisses. He even jokingly made out with one of the ladies.

Bill was married to Jennifer Butler for 11 years. They have four sons together, ranging from ages 7 to 15. He also has two sons with ex-wife Margaret Kelly.

Heather Mills: Rich, and Something That Rhymes With It

Maybe now she can put a down payment on a soul! A judge ruled on Monday that Paul McCartney must pay golddigging, ex-stripping ex-wife Heather Mills $48.6 million in their divorce settlement. Mills was awarded a lump sum of $33 million plus assets she currently holds valued at $15.6 million.

Mills immediately attempted to garner sympathy for herself and her new $48 million fortune. "Paul was offering a lot less than that, which you’ll see in the judgment, and very much last minute to put me and Beatrice sadly through this ... incredibly sad," she said after leaving the court.

As usual, Mills claims it was all for her charities, and daughter Beatrice, 3. “It was an incredible result in the end to secure mine and my daughter’s future and that of all the charities that I obviously plan on helping and making a difference with — because you know it has been my life for 20 years,” she said. Of her decision to fire her lawyers, she said the fees “could easily go to charity.”

Yeah, right. Don't act like you're not going straight over to Bergdorf's to clean out their entire Louis Vuitton collection.

Heather Mills will reportedly get $108 million from Paul McCartney. Which just goes to show that if you use your claws to dig deep enough, eventually you'll strike gold. The former stripper and the former Beatle have settled their bitter divorce with Mills set to receive $40 million up front, with another $5 million a year until their four-year-old daughter Beatrice turns 18. The settlement includes a strict confidentiality agreement.

But poor Heather - the deal falls short of the $160 million she initially requested. I feel her pain - without that extra $52 million a year to spend on handbags and haircoloring I'd be lost.
