TINSELTOWN SPYWITNESS.


Byline: Elizabeth Snead, Joel Stratte-McClure and Jenny Peters

CLAWS IN, GIRLS: Mag-rags are full of bitter feuds between top female stars. Lindsay Lohan is reportedly in a snit over the Simpson sisters, Jessica and Ashlee. And Paris Hilton is positively peeved peeve

 with former best friend Nicole Richie.

But sides seem to switch with every passing party. So when ``Mean Girls' '' Lohan arrived behind Richie at Allure magazine editor Linda Wells' annual dinner at Dominick's in West Hollywood, no one knew what to expect.

Suddenly Richie turned, saw Lohan just inches away and started looking her up and down, pointing at Lohan's paisley chiffon gown, saying, ``Oh. Oh? Oh!''

Then Lohan did the same thing, giving Richie the twice-over, pointing suspiciously at her vintage Galanos gown and uttering identically inflected in·flect

Then the two ultra-skinnies, both with heavy false eyelashes, giggled at what was clearly an inside joke and pushed into the packed patio bumping elbows with Jessica Biel, Maria Bello, Michelle Trachtenberg, Jenna Elfman, Gina Gershon, HBO Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO)

 and mojitos, the hot summer rum drink.

Pompeo, by the way, looked more skeletal than Lohan or Richie - or Mary-Kate Olsen, for that matter. She seriously looked ready for an intravenous feeding tube.

Pretty blond Kelly Rowan, who plays Kirsten Cohen on ``The O.C,'' was sipping a soft drink, sitting on a bench away from the arrivals. This season, Rowan's character hit the bottle hard and was shipped off to rehab. We're dying to know: Will poor Kirsten get out soon?

ANDRE THE GIANT HICK: A country bumpkin is the newest power broker in Hollywood, if you believe Premiere magazine. The mag anointed "Anointed" redirects here. For the process of anointing, see Anointing.

Even goofier was the fellow who presented the award, director John Singleton, who looked like an '80s preppie.

``He's a prep, and I'm a farmer,'' chortled Andre 3000 (the country bumpkin) as he snatched his award from his ``Four Brothers'' director. Singleton was dressed in an all-white suit, shirt and tie.

``Hey, I'm from Atlanta, Ga. - I'm a Southern boy. Ya gotta resonate,'' he said earlier, trying to explain.

But there really was no reason for the hayseed look, except that Andre, the genius behind the Grammy-winning OutKast, is famous for making bizarre fashion statements.

The other New Power kids looked and acted more traditional. Scarlett Johansson did her vamp '30s starlet star·let

A TRUE TEAM EFFORT: He moves fast on the court. But L.A. Lakers star Kobe Bryant slowed things down Sunday.

Bryant and his wife, Vanessa, wearing her gigantic ``apology'' diamond ring, rolled in late to the 20th annual Cedars-Sinai Sports Spectacular event, keeping the huge crowd cooling their heels outside the Century Plaza Hotel The Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles is a landmark 19-story luxury hotel forming a sweeping crescent design fronting the spectacular fountains on Avenue of the Stars adjacent to the twin Century Plaza Towers.  ballroom.

But Bryant made up for being late by giving a humble speech to laud award winner Dr. David Rimoin, director of the Medical Genetics Institute at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Cedars-Sinai Medical Center is a world-renowned hospital located in Los Angeles, California. History

``There are so many people here that are so easily identifiable as famous sports figures, but what we do is nothing. The doctors in this room just make miracles happen,'' Bryant said. The who's who of sports figures - including Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Steve Garvey and Luc Robitaille - gave a loud ovation.

More than $1.5 million was raised to help the Cedars-Sinai doctors aid children affected by genetic birth defects.

We were kinda hoping Vanessa Bryant would toss that $4 million apology ring into the worthy charity's pot, but no such luck.

KATIE GETS THE BOOT: Is Katie Holmes gonna become Batwoman?

She's already got the shoes for it. Holmes has been seen wearing a pair of cool new low-heeled Batman boots by Converse.

She was actually given a pair of the $200 black leather boots, modeled after the actual shoes worn by Christian Bale in ``Batman Begins,'' at the film's Hollywood premiere.

``These are amazing,'' the newly engaged Holmes gushed when she was handed the boots on the red carpet. ``I'm so excited and I'm gonna wear them with everything.'' They're even perfect for those fast rides on the back of fiance Tom Cruise's motorcycle.

Hey, wonder if Tom wants a pair? Actually, he could just borrow Katie's. After all, this is a community property state and the boots are unisex.
