There are a lot of dangerous things you can no longer take aboard airplanes--knives, box cutters, full-size bottles of shampoo--but there's no edict against packing a really, really heavy carry-on bag. So when Sienna Miller caught some paparazzi chasing after her at LAX, she did the first thing she could think of: She swung at them with her pink Marc Jacobs bag. Yes, really.
According to witnesses, she did hit a guy but didn't injure him, making enough of a stir for airport security to step in. But we predict the $1,295 bag will become the next It accessory for aggressive celebs, because growing Hulk muscles is hell on designer clothes.

Then you might be interested in heading on over to the Sheraton Gateway LAX Hotel. The hotel is kicking off JetSet Sundays on May 25, a weekly poolside event that will last through the summer.
The hotel's executive chef has put together an exotic sort of menu with Brazilian steak sandwiches and grilled eggplants with sesame and soy, so don't come looking for your standby faves of hot dogs and burgers. (There won't be any bocce bellas there, either.)
However, there will be a Good Humor truck serving ice cream bars and cones. And don't forget about the drinks. Since the hotel is located near the airport, drinks are airline-inspired...

"Transformers" actor Shia LaBeouf rocked a '90s flannel, a '70s concert T-shirt, a space-age rolling bag and a nineteenth-century doctor's bag at LAX yesterday. Hopefully he'll be more uniformly packed for his role as Indiana Jones' sidekick in their quest for the Crystal Skull.
LaBeouf just wrapped filming the thriller "Eagle Eye," about a man framed as a terrorist, in Southern California. Next he's switching coasts for a short film directed by Shekhar Kapur ("Elizabeth: The Golden Age") that will be part of "New York, I Love You" with John Hurt and Julie Christie.

Jake Gyllenhaal caught a flight at LAX this week looking... well, just like any other guy taking a leisure trip. (Perhaps with slightly nicer jeans?) Darn it, Jake, we've been admiring you from afar since "Donnie Darko" and you can't even be bothered to tell us your favorite baseball team via hat?
Gyllenhaal just wrapped the film "Brothers" with Natalie Portman, about a man forced to support his older brother's wife when his bro goes MIA in Afghanistan. He's now working on David O. Russell's newest movie about a waitress who takes her workman's comp crusade to DC.
Maybe he was flying off to New York to play Uncle Jake to his niece Ramona while her mom, Jake's sister Maggie, does press for her summer blockbuster "The Dark Knight."

Just days before footage would air of them heatedly discussing their "relationship vacation," Heidi and Spencer of "The Hills" were all smiles as they touched down at LAX (the airport, not the club). Is the show fake, or have they smoothed over their differences since it finished shooting? You decide.
We hope our service to Jaunted never mandates that we take a flight, long or short, wearing a glorified onesie such as Montag is sporting. Internet overlords, are you listening?

It's comforting to know that like us, Debra Messing (above, at LAX) struggles with that need-of-third-hand ailment that always seems to come upon us when we're standing in the security line.
Messing appears in this year's "The Women" with Eva Mendes and Carrie Fisher, in her series "The Starter Wife" for Lifetime (currently filming its second season) and pretty much any time we turn on the TV in "Will and Grace."

Last month one-time Entourage actress Bai Ling got busted at LAX after allegedly pilfering a couple magazines and a pack of batteries. But the prosecutor on her case is reducing the charges, and the star says the whole mess was a big mix up.
She even posted the news to her personal blog:
I just got the good news and I am relieved that the prosecutor has decided not to file misdemeanor charges against me and to treat this matter as an infraction. What happened was an innocent mistake on my part and I am confident that the truth will be told since I never had any intention of taking items without paying for them.
Ling's lawyer will handle things in court today so she can stay in New Mexico, where she's shooting "Love Ranch" along with Joe Pesci and Jaunted fave Helen Mirren. In the film, Ling plays the top-earning prostitute in a Nevada brothel; here's hoping her character doesn't have any run-ins with the law.

"One Tree Hill" star Sophia Bush took her pit bull Patch and her luggage out at LAX yesterday. Why are we posting this candid photo? Look at the size of that kennel!
These days, when carriers are starting to look at a second checked bag as a source of income instead of a courtesy to overpacking travelers, should pet owners be charged more for adding huge luggage pieces (like kennels) to overloaded planes?
On the one hand, most airlines require that pups like Patch have enough room to turn around (if not be totally comfortable) in their carriers. On the other hand, planes sure aren't getting any lighter.
