Sarah Jessica Parker jetted to England a couple of days ago for the start of an almost two-week European tour in support of Sex and the City through London, Berlin and Paris.

But before you think how Carrie Bradshaw it all sounds, you should know she doesn’t like being away from hubby Matthew Broderick and 5-year-old son James Wilkie for too long.

So she has a plan to keep in touch with her little man. "I speak to him probably three times a day, and we have a whole system of staying in touch,” Parker told me over the phone from London. "And Matthew is, I must say, brilliantly handling things. I’m so impressed!"

Sweet, no? So then let's get to the Sex, shall we? Read on for my exclusive one-on-one with SJP. We talk about Mr. Big, her favorite SATC episode and why her son won’t be watching the hit HBO series for many more years to come...

UPDATE: I just heard back from Montag's rep on why she wasn't at the party.

Two words: "Not invited."

________________________

Photo-opportunists Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are no-shows at the Hills season finale party happening right now at a private mansion in Beverly Hills.

That's weird, right?

“It’s not weird to me,” Lauren "L.C." Conrad told reporters as she walked into the party.

Conrad also insisted she had nothing to do with it one way or another. Montag's missed big parties for the MTV hit series before, including one in L.A. and another in NYC.

“I have no control over the guest list,” Conrad said.

But Pratt's sister, Stephanie, is in the house...

Teri Hatcher isn’t the only Desperate Housewives star yearning for a music career.

So is Andrea Bowen.

Bowen, 18, says she’s going to start recording some tracks this summer. “I’ve been a singer since before I was an actress,” she said at Friday’s Step Up Women's Network awards luncheon in Beverly Hills. “It’s something I’m exploring and playing with and having fun with.”

She’s still looking for her sound. “I don’t really know for sure what route I’m going to go down,” Bowen said. “Right now, it’s kind of all over the place.”

Hatcher, who plays Bowen's mom on DH, was a surprise performer during "Idol Gives Back" last month, singing a cover of Carrie Underwood’s “Before He Cheats.”

The British tabs are barking: Owen Wilson has popped the question to Kate Hudson and sealed the deal with a mongo diamond ring.

But reps for both stars insist otherwise.

"Not true!" Wilson's publicist tells me. Adds Hudson's rep, "She is definitely not engaged."

As for Ms. Most Beautiful's mystery bling, the true story is revealed in my videoblog above.

Yep, she’s 50!

Ellen DeGeneres is celebrating the big 5-0 with a star-studded blowout carnival and casino-themed bash tonight on the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank.

I'm told that the 600 or so on the guest list include newlyweds Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon, Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, Tom Hanks, Lindsay Lohan, Jamie Foxx, Paris Hilton and Clive Davis.

Pink will perform and Samantha Ronson will deejay.

DeGeneres turned 50 on Jan. 26, but postponed her party plans because of the writers' strike.

Miley Cyrus is teaming up with—ready for this?—John Travolta.

Not only are they both voicing characters in the upcoming animated flick Bolt, but Travolta’s wife, Kelly Preston, tells me they could be making music together.

“Johnny may sing with Miley,” Preston said at yesterday’s Step Up Women’s Network’s Inspiration Awards luncheon at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.

Preston and Travolta’s 8-year-old daughter, Ella, is a longtime Cyrus fan. They first met Cyrus when the Hannah Montana star was opening for Cheetah Girls during their concert tour about two years ago. “We [now] know Miley very well,” Preston said, “and she’s a sweetheart.”

The fur is flyin’ in Lindsay Lohan’s camp.

I just got off the phone with her rep, who insists Lohan did not steal that fur coat or any clothing belonging to the New York City model accusing her of theft.

“This is crazy!” says Lohan’s rep. “They are being paid for their interviews. I want that on the record. The bombing of Lindsay has to stop. She is in a good place right now. Why can’t everyone leave her alone?”

Model Lauren Hastings claims that she has witnesses who saw Lohan earlier this year going through her closet and handing a bag of her belongings to a bodyguard during a party thrown by a housesitter at Hasting’s New York pad.

And as you’ve probably heard by now, fellow New Yorker Masha Markova claimed that Lohan lifted her fur during a night out in NYC.

But that’s not all. The rep is already shooting down an upcoming tabloid report that says Lohan had a fling two years ago with Bobby Brown’s son, Landon Brown. “They might as well print I had an affair with him, too,” the rep said. “They’ll print anything.”

It sounds like Selena Gomez is movin’ in on Miley Cyrus’ musical territory.

As I first told you, Disney execs are looking to make Gomez their next breakout, especially in response to the Hanna Montana star's recent controversy with the Vanity Fair pic.

Well, there's more...

Miley Cyrus isn't the only one posing for magazines in a bedsheet. British GQ has Gwyneth Paltrow on the cover, and the inside shots of the Iron lady show her in nothin' but peekaboo lingerie like slips, bras and garters.

This is as risqué as gets, but still the mother of two remains a target of the tabloid press.

“I’m not going out without my knickers, and I’m not getting drunk and I’m not on my eighth husband,” she tells writer Johnny Davis. “Sometimes they have to drum up a lot of controversy over nothing.”

The only thing we can accuse Paltrow of being is, well, boring. I mean, she’s cooking family dinners and even recites pasta recipes from memory.

What's next—hosting Tupperware parties?
