The site, which was slow to load yesterday, has that still-under-construction look and a promise from the 27-year-old: "This will provide you with the opportunity to know who I really am." So what is he really like? Federline describes himself as a man who enjoys "horseback riding, long walks on the beach and the wind whipping through my hair. Ha ha ha."

Ha. Ha. Ha.

One Way to Stop Oprah

It's a bird! It's a plane! No -- it's definitely a bird! Oprah Winfrey 's extended holiday plans were temporarily put on hold when her private jet hit a bird in California on Monday.

Officials told the Associated Press that the Gulfstream jet's windshield was cracked when the jet and the fowl collided around 12:30 p.m., forcing the plane to return to Santa Barbara Municipal Airport. Winfrey and her longtime boyfriend, Stedman Graham , were not hurt in the accident.

"We see these things pretty frequently," said Santa Barbara Fire Department spokesman John Ahlman of the cracked windshield.

Noted

Quick turnaround? Tori Spelling is engaged to fellow actor Dean McDermott -- just months after separating from her husband of a little more than a year, Charlie Shanian. "We're so incredibly happy and in love," the pair said in a joint statement to People magazine. They met earlier this year while at work on a TV movie. McDermott filed for divorce from his wife of 12 years in September.
