BETTY WHITE'S QUAINT CHRISTMAS 

You might think that a huge celebrity like Betty White would have big plans for the Christmas holiday, but she told People Magazine that she plans on spending December 25 alone with Ponty, her Golden Retriever.

"It's just the two of us for Christmas because I'm alone, and so we just have a cozy day all day. We look forward to that all year," said White. Sounds like our idea of the perfect Christmas, too. (TODAY) 

MERRY XMAS FROM LIL' BUB & ANDREW WK

Andrew WK teamed up with Internet sensation Lil' Bub to deliver a special holiday message for VICE. Although they may seem like a weird match, their intentions are good.

MIRANDA LAMBERT GIVES ONE PRESENT PER POOCH

We all know that country star Miranda Lambert is a huge animal lover, so it should be no surprise that she spoils her own dogs at home! This Christmas, all six of her rescue dogs won't have to fight over anything. "All the dogs get their individually wrapped gifts. They're spoiled!" she said. Delilah, Delta Dawn, Jessi, Waylon, Dixie and Molly are such lucky pooches! We can't wait to see what they get. (People's Pets) 

BUBBLES THE CHIMP MAKES ARTISTIC COMEBACK

If anyone has been wondering what Michael Jackson's former best friend is up to these days, painting is the answer. Bubbles the chimpanzee can be found putting paintbrush to canvas, creating abstract art pieces that are exhibited at Art Basel in Miami Beach. His pieces are priced at $1,500 and go towards the Center for Great Apes, the sanctuary where he has spent the last eight years of his life. (Mercury News)

MIRANDA KERR CO-PARENTS POOCH

There isn't anything more in this world that Miranda Kerr loves more than hubby Orlando Bloom, her beautiful baby Flynn and, of course, Frankie, her Yorkshire Terrier. Even with the extremely busy life she leads, she wants nothing but the best for the loves of her life, including Frankie. For this reason, Kerr shares custody of her dog with co-parent, make-up artist Rose-Marie Swift. Even though Swift only had big dogs in her life, Kerr trusted that she would take good care of Frankie. And that she did! Frankie still splits his time between the two to this day. (NY MAG)

MOTHER MARIA TO THE RESCUE

Last month, Extra host Maria Menounos and her boyfriend were driving when they found three dogs abandoned on the side of the road. When they took the dogs to a nearby animal shelter with the hopes of locating their owners, they instead left with the dogs, in addition to three more poodles that were in need of a home. Menounos couldn't keep all six of them, but she decided to keep three — Beamer and Boomer (Lhasa Apso mixes) and Whinnie the poodle (who is pictured here). She was able to find homes for the remaining dogs. (People Pets)
