Lance Armstrong is afraid officials of the Tour de France may ban him from competing due to the controversy over his recent drug test.

Armstrong has stated there’s a “very high likelihood” he will not be allowed to race for an eighth Tour de France title. The French drug testing agency has indicated it may punish Armstrong for not remaining within the sight of the official who came to his home to collect his hair, urine and blood on March 17.

Armstrong claims he went inside his house to shower while his assistant checked the official’s credentials, and that his tests came back negative.

Sure, cyclist Lance Armstrong is hurting from a broken collarbone, but that’s no excuse for the boorish behavior he displayed on a recent flight from Madrid to Atlanta.

E!’s Ted Casablanca reports that one of Lance’s fellow passengers gave this observation of his in-flight conduct. “He was such an asshole. He was so wasted on painkillers, and he drank a lot. It was just obnoxious.”

How drunk was he? “Enough to be cut off,” Ted’s snitch sniped. Considering that famous passengers in first class are generally allowed to imbibe to their heart’s content, that’s a lotta booze. And mixing the hard liquor with painkillers is a killer—in the worst cases, literally.

Police have recovered a one-of-a-kind bicycle stolen from Tour de France legend Lance Armstrong last weekend in Sacramento, CA. The AFP reports an unnamed person brought the Trek training bicycle to a Sacramento police station.

Armstrong has ridden the bike in the opening round of  the Tour of California on Saturday and later, it was one of several stolen from an Astana team truck parked behind a hotel.

On Sunday, Armstrong sent out an SOS to more than 128,000 Twitter members  who have signed on to receive his messages. No word on whether one of those fans helped find the bike, but police intend to return it to Armstrong.

Lance Armstrong got a very special holiday surprise this year—he and girlfriend Anna Hansen are expecting a baby in June. This is something of a miracle since he was told that chemotherapy for cancer he suffered in the 90s had left him sterile. Armstrong and ex-wife conceived three children with sperm he had donated before the treatment but this time around, the pregnancy happened without medical fertilization. Congratulations, guys!

Kate Hudson is on the cover of the September issue of W Magazine and I’m diggin’ the super rich crimson lips. Loves. It. Katey just broke up with cyclist Lance Armstrong a few weeks ago after three months of dating. Is that even considered dating – three months? That’s like – hanging out. Anyway, she had a few things to say about relationships in the new issue. In regards to being open about her love life: “I’ve learned that things are better left private until you’re actually planning the wedding,” she told W. “It’s so hard for me, because I’m so open, to hold back,” she went on. “I could really just go on forever about this stuff.” Kate was married to rocker Chris Robinson (whom she has son, Ryder, with) and also dated actor Owen Wilson. If you want to get more of the regular deets on Kate, check out the new issue out in newsstands August 19.

Yes, that was definitely quick. Kate Hudson and cyclist Lance Armstrong have split up over the weekend, Us Magazine reports, and it ended amicably. “There was no drama or ugliness – they just decided to end things,” a source close to the couple told the magazine. “There is no hatred, just sadness.” Lance and Kate went public with their relationship when they were spotted together in Austin, TX in May. After they were “outed”, the couple became inseparable and were photographed together from New York to Los Angeles. They’ve even introduced the other to their respective families/kids. Lance went on a much-photographed lunch outing with Kate’s mom, Goldie Hawn, just about a month and a half ago in a Santa Monica eatery. And we can’t forget the number of times Lance took his kids and Kate’s son, Ryder, to tennis camp this summer. Everything just seemed so…perfect. I guess ’seemed’ is the right word here because as we know now, the two are no longer. Oh, well. I’m sure they’ll both bounce back from this unscathed. And on to the next one…

Our photogs spotted Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong paying Camila Alves and Matthew McConaughey’s new baby a visit in the hospital. Remember, Lance and Matthew are pretty good buddies, and so are Kate and Matthew. She is, after all, like Matt’s main leading lady. I think they’ve done, what, three movies together? Lance and Kate stayed for a bit before they headed to Santa Monica airport for an out of town trip. She and Lance were in Lake Tahoe by last night, where they attended some festivities for the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship. Lance’s foundation is said to be one of the beneficiaries. Wow, sounds like they had a busy day. Check out a couple more photos below.

Our photogs spotted the It Couple of the moment, Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong, playing a little tennis today in Palisades. These two have been inseparable the last few weeks. Does he live with her now, too? Their relationship definitely got seriously quickly. Kate’s son Ryder has even hung out with the cyclist and his kids without his mama. Yeah, they’re that comfortable with each other’s families already. Score(?). Speaking of Ryder, Kate recently told OK! Magazine that her son’s suddenly developed an interest in women’s breasts. Cuteness! Anyway, check out more pics of Kate and her bike boy playing with some tennis balls below.

Here are some more pictures from the Fourth of July weekend starring Lance Armstrong and his new lady love, Kate Hudson. The couple (and one of Lance’s daughters) were spotted doing a lot of shopping at Benton’s Sporting Goods store in Palisades. These two are definitely in serious couple mode. I mean, you don’t introduce your kids just to anyone, and it looks like they’re already past the introduction phase and on to the getting to know my partner’s kids chapter. I’ll be posting more photos of Lance spending more time with the children (including Kate’s son, Ryder) at a later post. Kate and Lance only started dating (and went public) in May, so you they must have really connected. Check out more photos of the couple doing some family time below.

Jenny McCarthy and honey Jim Carrey took a nice walk on the beach in Malibu. So romantic, aren’t they? And Jenny’s looking hot in that bathing suit…

…And so is Jim. Gotta’ love a boyfriend you can share clothes, er, bikinis with. Okay, these two just moved up in my list of fave celeb couples.

Lance Armstrong took an early morning bike ride along PCH with a couple of his buddies.

Later that day, Lance took his son to a medical building in Beverly Hills. I was told that girlfriend Kate Hudson (not pictured) dropped the duo off and picked them up. Yeah, they’re definitely in couple-dom now.

Pete Wentz and his missus Ashlee went to a friend’s BBQ in the Hollywood Hills to celebrate the fourth. They even took their adorable pup with them. Hope they gave that dog a bone or something to chew on.

Here’s Pete looking happy and well after the shindig. He must have had some yummy ’slaw and yummy BBQ’d ribs. Wait, is Pete a vegetarian? Somehow, I just picture him being a vegetarian.

Dude, I know Lance Armstrong is sponsored by Nike, but come on…he must have other t-shirts in the closet. Geez. Okay, concentrate. Our photogs spotted the Nike-clad Lance and his gal-pal of the moment, Kate Hudson, on their way to lunch yesterday. The duo met up with Kate’s mon, actress Goldie Hawn, at the Ivy at the Shore restaurant in Santa Monica. The paps were definitely in full gear yesterday because this is the new celeb couple of the moment. Well, maybe the Jen Aniston/Johnny Mayer coupling might be just a tad bit more press covered, but this is coming in second for sure. Witnesses told People Mag that the trio had a blast once inside the restaurant and they just laughed their way through lunch. I can feel the love. Anyway, check out more photos of Kance (Late?)…um, Lance and Kate (and Kate’s mama) below. Enjoy.

Are Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong riding away towards the sunset together? Say it’s so! Kate just broke up (again) with boyfriend Owen Wilson recently and she’s already hanging out with Lance. Hey, a girl’s gotta’ do what she’s gotta’ do. Anyway, the two were first spotted in NYC last Thursday. They reportedly hung out all weekend long in Austin, where Lance lives. Lance has been linked to Ashley Olsen (of all people, Lance?!?!) recently and he dated (and was engaged to) singer Sheryl Crow for a couple of years before they separated. He seems pretty much the ladies man, but if anyone can handle him, I think Kate can.
