Loretta outgrows her museum

Country singer Loretta Lynn has outgrown a small museum at her ranch so she's opening a new one. The Coal Miner's Daughter Museum opens May 26, with Lynn giving a fan appreciation concert at her ranch 40 miles west of Nashville. Lynn said an old museum she had on the property was decades-old and too small to display all her career mementos.

The new 18,000-square-foot museum will include the original dress worn on the "Coal Miner's Daughter" album and displays from Lynn's school in Butcher Holler, Ky., and her first Nashville home.

Lynn, 66, grew up in poverty in Kentucky and gave birth at 14 to her first of six children. She made it as a country star against the greatest of odds and has sustained a 40-year career with such hits as "Coal Miner's Daughter" and "You Ain't Woman Enough."

2 kids, no parties

Having young children has definitely put a damper on John Leguizamo's social life. "You don't party no more. You have to be up with them at 7 in the morning," Leguizamo says in the June/July issue of "Gear" magazine. He travels everywhere with his son, Ryder Lee; his daughter, Allegra Sky; and his girlfriend.

The 36-year-old actor plays French painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in the film "Moulin Rouge." But before he was a star, Leguizamo worked at less glamorous jobs. "I worked at Kentucky Fried Chicken, as a stockboy, a shoe salesman, in an apparel store and in a lumberyard," he says. "Working at KFC was actually a good time. People would invite me to parties 'cause they knew I'd bring two or three buckets. I was popular for a while."

Brad ready for high fashion

Sean "P. Diddy" Combs has his hip-hop gear; Regis Philbin has those ties. J. Lo's taking a walk down the fashion lane, and now Brad Pitt is joining the Hollywood-to-hemline parade. Pitt is teaming up with his stylist, Todd Shemarya, and three movie costumers who say they've been inspired by the actor's sense of style, to create a high-end menswear line. Of course for Pitt, whose personal taste runs to the gutter side of grunge, the definition of "high end could be clean socks." Shemarya says the new line will not be named after the actor.

Downey won't face charges

The Los Angeles district attorney has given Robert Downey Jr., 36, a break. He will face no criminal charges in connection with his April 24 arrest, despite forensic tests showing that he had cocaine in his system. Instead, a spokeswoman for the D.A. said, corrections officials will tighten the actor's parole conditions. The former "Ally McBeal" star still faces a court hearing later this month stemming from his Thanksgiving weekend arrest in Palm Springs, for which he's charged with felony possession of cocaine and Valium.
