After the Daily Mirror published photos of Moss snorting a white powder late last week, H&M initially announced it would retain her as the face of Stella McCartney's new clothing line.

But H&M released a statement saying it has canceled the Moss advertising campaign because it would be "inconsistent with H&M's clear dissociation of drugs," the BBC reported Tuesday.

Moss has not publicly commented on the pictures that show her laying out about 20 lines of a white powder, then snorting it with boyfriend Pete Doherty and his pals in a London studio.

Moss spent some time in rehab in 1998 citing her party lifestyle had taken a toll, but did not specify at that time what she was being treated for.

Talk of 'Raymond' spinoff heats up

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 20 (UPI) -- Sources are telling the Hollywood Reporter that Emmy-winner Brad Garrett wasn't kidding when he alluded to a spinoff of "Everybody Loves Raymond."

The sources said talks are heating up at CBS about a spinoff featuring Garrett's character Robert Barone, his wife and in-laws.

Spinoff talk has been swirling for some time, but the source told the Reporter significant progress has actually been made by all parties involved.

"Raymond" creator and executive producer Phil Rosenthal could return with the spinoff along with a number of the "Raymond" writers, the sources said.

"Raymond" took the Emmy for best comedy Sunday and Garrett won his third trophy for best supporting actor in a comedy for his portrayal of Barone.


Sizemore to shop show to TV networks

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 20 (UPI) -- Being in a California residential drug treatment center hasn't stopped actor Tom Sizemore from working.

Sizemore has signed a deal to develop "Super Sizemore," a TV show including his many court appearances, his struggle to become sober and his new role as a father of twins, the Hollywood Reporter said Tuesday.

The project will incorporate Sizemore's own footage taped over the past two years and will end up either a reality show or documentary.

Sizemore last appeared in Los Angeles Superior Court Thursday, during which the judge praised the actor for taking his rehab seriously. He then ordered the actor to return to treatment for 30 more days but granted him time away to work. Sizemore was sentenced to rehab earlier this summer for violating his probation for possession of methamphetamine.

Sizemore and his partners in the project will be shopping it around to networks in the coming weeks, the Reporter said.
