The Daily Dish: April 17

-- Peeping woman arrested outside Brit's house A woman who wanted to get a closer look at Brit-Brit was met with a citation when she was caught acting suspiciously around the pop princess's pad. Wearing camo gear and carrying a camera, Miranda Tozier-Robbins, 26, was asked by Spears' security to leave and when she refused, had to be physically escorted off the property. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department booked her on charges of trespassing and disorderly conduct and she was subsequently released. Apparently Spears wasn't home when the Peeping Pam tried to catch a glimpse. Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Tozier-Robbins was a contestant on season five of “American Idol” where she sang, wait for it, “Everything” by Britney Spears.

-- Bruno makes the cut Cheeky, envelope-pushing comedian Sacha Baron Cohen has made a few strategic cuts to his latest movie in an effort to change the dreaded NC-17 rating the film was handed a few weeks ago. The follow-up to his successful quasi-doc Borat, Bruno finds Baron Cohen's fabulous and fashionable alter-ego cavorting around Milan Fashion Week, camping with some good ole country boys and generally wearing a lot of mesh. And where there's mesh, there's flesh. The MPAA had specific concerns with the film's penchant for naughtiness, citing "pervasive strong and crude sexual content, graphic nudity and language" as the issue behind its adults-only rating. But with a snip here and a cut there, Bruno will now open wide with an R rating, likely sometime in July. Not wanting to waste any of the raunchy goodness, word has it that the too-hot material will be available on DVD.

-- Sofia helms Somewhere Indie darling and sometimes Marc Jacobs muse Sofia Coppola has announced that her fourth feature film will be a dramedy she wrote entitled Somewhere, that uses Hollywood's famed Chateau Marmont as one of its major settings. Stephen Dorff (remember him?) will star as hard-partying actor who gets an unexpected visit from his 11-year-old daughter, played by Elle Fanning (yup, Dakota has an equally precocious sister) whose unexpected presence forces him to reevaluate his life. Coppola called it "an intimate story set in contemporary Los Angeles" and if it's anything like the fantastic, visually gripping work she exhibited in Lost in Translation and Marie Antoinette, fans may yet find another reason to fall in love with Sofia. The film is set to begin production in June.
