Coming Out

Are Madonna and ARod FINALLY going to fess up about their romance? It sure looks like it. The stealthy duo, who’s affair helped speed up the demise of both of their marriages, are both in LA right now, where Madonna is set to play a concert at Dodger Stadium tomorrow night. And sources say that Arod will be there, supporting his Kabbalic partner-in-crime! Meanwhile, Madge is dealing with some other drama ­ her ex Guy Ritchie has hired some high-powered lawyers and plans to fight for custody of their two kids together, Rocco and David. But hey, at least she has the Yankee slugger to help her release her stress.Bad Boy

Charlie Sheen is back to his old ways. The actor, who is expecting twin boys with wife Brooke Mueller, was spotted partying like a rock star in Vegas recently ­ while Brooke was back home in LA. Sources say that Charlie whooped it up at Prive nightclub, drinking and flirting with women. And Brooke was none too happy after her man’s antics. Charlie told Brooke that part of his life was behind him, but now she’s freaking out. They’re about to have two kids and she doesn’t want to be with him if strippers and booze are more important than his family!

Prez Obama

Change is upon us. The country has elected Barack Obama ­ and no one is more excited about it than the celebrities! Turning out for Obama’s victory speech at Chicago’s Grant Park on Election Night were Brad Pitt and Oprah Winfrey, who declared, “it feels like something really big and bold has happened here, like nothing ever in our lifetimes did we expect this to happen.” And other star’s had their own election-celebration parties, including Courteney Cox who hosted pals like Jen Aniston (with beau John Mayer) at her LA home. Way to go O!

Money Bags

It pays to date Simon Cowell – literally! The American Idol judge just split from Terri Seymour, his girlfriend of 6 years, and sources say he gave her $5 million in cash and an extra $4.6 million to buy a Beverly Hills mansion as a parting gift. Terri phoned Simon about six weeks ago and finished it, sources reveal. Simon thinks the world of Terri, and that isn¹t going to change. He also understands her reason for ending it. Whatever – at least she is rich now!
