• Michelle Williams is rumored to be joining her estranged husband Heath Ledger in leaving her giant Brooklyn house behind in favor of Manhattan. Time to call up Celebrity Movers! [Page Six]
  

Who could ever forget the final scene of Ang Lee's tragic Brokeback Mountain, in which Heath Ledger's Ennis Del Mar [spoiler alert if you've been meaning to Netflix it!] clutches a shirt belonging to the gay-sheepboy love of his life, as if touching him for the very last time? As shattering as that moment was, however, something called for a coda—perhaps just a brief shot of a smiling Ennis, finally at peace serving daiquiris to vacationing tourists at the Key West bed n' breakfast he opened after Jack Twist's death. We may not have to rely on our imaginations for that kind of closure, however, as OK! Magazine reports that a Brokeback sequel is on the way:

In a trenchant piece of geosocial commentary, not-a-she Alex Williams tackles some big questions: "What if Brooklyn's recent cachet as the locus for what's next is little more than a thin and fragile crust of chic, hiding the insecurity of people who constantly measure the social currency of their ZIP code by Manhattan standards?" Gee, what if!

From the mailbag, overheard in the no longer star-studded streets of Boerum Hill: "Michelle's assistant snapping that it was Heath's assistant, not her, who'd set THAT one up."

Spotted in Boerum Hill! Where Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams live! Is one of the couple—who recently split up—moving today? We're going with: No. You see, when celebrities pick up and go, they use "Discreet Superstar Moving Company." Their trucks are much more subtle. UPDATE: Oh ho ho! Emily hotfooted it over to Heath's place, and guess what? It's true!

Boerum Hill celebrity mascot Michelle Williams maybe isn't taking her ex's rebounding with Helena Christensen too well: She's getting all para on the F train! Says an observer: "I felt someone's eyes on me and it was her and then she looked away like I had been the one staring. Then she moved further down the car like I was going to attack her. Then when we both got off at our stop, she ran out like the devil was on her heels. She even looked back to see if I was behind her! Since when did Asian girls become scary?" Actually, since "The Grudge"?

You know who else was in that elevator with Heath Ledger and Kate Bosworth? Helena Christensen. You know who was spotted last night at Freeman's? Just Heath Ledger and Helena Christensen. Oh and also Page Six says they had dinner at Wakiya, too.

• Michelle Williams and Heath Ledger amicably split a few weeks ago, a source confirmed to Us Weekly on Labor Day (sneaky!). Was it her haircut? His male pattern baldness? Did the height difference eventually prove insurmountable? [Us Weekly]

According to an article in today's Times, Brooklyn's Smith St. is fast falling into the comfortable embrace of upmarket mass-commodification. Lucky Jeans recently opened a store there, Trader Joe's is coming soon and the long-time residents are in as much of a furor as their yoga practice will let them be. (Breathe, breathe, engage moola bandha.) Styles reporter Eric Wilson took to Smith street to find the longest-time resident he could—presumably the one with most historical perspective.

· Like, in the Batman movies, maybe Two-Face will actually be an evil manifestation of Harvey Dent's repressed homosexuality? [Laughs] Now, that's interesting. Sure, maybe so.
· But as far as we know, no one's yet had a chance to confront Heath Ledger about the Joker as evil manifestation of repressed homosexuality.
· We take back what we said the other day, because now Courtney Love has never looked better.

For, like, three seconds a few months ago, we were nervous that Heath Ledger and fam had packed up from their Boerum Hill lovenest and had escaped to the more celeb-happy confines of Los Angeles. Now, however, we have been assured that all is right in the world. GO Brooklyn reports that Ledger and GF Michelle Williams bought a place in LA, but it's really just a "one-bedroom treehouse." (Huh?) He also said:

The rumors swirling around Comic-Con last week that Heath Ledger was cast as the Joker in The Dark Knight, the Batman Begins sequel, were confirmed today by THR. The choice is sure to send ripples of controversy throughout the highly factious fanboy community, who'll debate endlessly whether or not the role should have been awarded to an actor most famous for starring in Brokeback Mountain. Their concern wouldn't be that he'd make the supervillain too effete, mind you, but rather that the guy who played Ennis del Mar wasn't capable of going nearly gay enough with the role: Requiring a face full of makeup, a Manic Panic Green Envy dye-job, and the need to punctuate every statement with a round of ear-piercing shriek-laughter, the Joker is one part that requires an actor to really embrace his inner drag queen.

• Kate Moss will not be charged with possession stemming from her September '05 cover shoot with the UK's Daily Mirror. Apparently something about a lack of evidence or being able to definitively prove she was bumping rails of blow and not, say, powdered sugar. You know how those skinny models love their powdered sugar! [Guardian]
• Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams didn't mean to snub Howard Stern at Nobu last week; they were just having "a very deep conversation about something in our personal life," says Ledger. Go ahead and read into that all you want, but they were likely just whining about Brooklyn. [Page Six]
• MSNBC host Keith Olbermann apologizes for telling a viewer to go fuck his mother. That was meant for Rita Cosby. [Lowdown]
• In a remarkable display of maturity, Lindsay Lohan turns down a round of shots, noting that she's underage. She still stayed out until 7 AM — thankfully, there's no age restrictions on marching powder. [R&M (bottom of page)]
• And after all that partying, Lohan still has the energy to be Madonna's new BFF. Though admittedly the starlet's not thrilled about getting Britney Spears' sloppy seconds. [Scoop]
• Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood has headed off to rehab. How are these guys even alive enough to be addicts? Were they all given new livers at some point in the mid-90s? [Fox411 (2nd item)]
