2. Say it ain’t so, Angel! David Boreanaz comes clean to People magazine about his infidelity. Why did he choose this moment to confess? Apparently, he was being blackmailed by a former mistress.
3. Trent Reznor releases his first post-Nine Inch Nails single, How to Destroy Angels’ “A Drowning.” The new band is a collaboration between Reznor and his wife, Mariqueen Maandig. Listen to it at Pitchfork.

5. Jude Law and Sienna Miller are back together. Let the drama begin! [via Popeater]
