The randomness that is Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt...is over! Heidi has called it quits and is currently hoping to move into a new place out in Malibu.

Supposedly Heidi wants to try to focus on her acting career (lol) but people in Hollywood don't want to work with her because she has "a loose cannon of a husband."

Not to mention the fact that he's crazy and controlling. He's basically isolated her from her friends for the last 4 years...but what really put things over the top...

Spencer called the cops on Darlene Egelhoff, (Heidi's mom) when she showed up at their house...initially Heidi thought Spencer was right...thankfully she has come to her senses!

Nick Jonas updated his Twitter:

"I am so excited to announce that I will be performing in Les Misérables once again! When I was ten years old I was in Les Misérables as Gavroche. On my closing night in 2003 I told my parents that I would come back to be Marius one day. It is truly a dream come true."

For weeks Alicia Keys and Swizz Beats have been denying that they are engaged and with child. However, turns out that she is about 4 months along and they are hoping to get hitched this summer after she gets off tour. 

Alicia will be performing at the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans on July 3rd...then they plan to scoot across the Atlantic to say their I do's before she pops the baby out!

She has been able to conceal the pregnancy thus far by rocking cute puffy dresses

|

Lindsay Lohan is hoping CHANEL will step up and help bedazzle her new SCRAM bracelet so she can rock a cute dress for the red carpet. 

I'm sure her judge will find that just precious...but according to the company that makes the SCRAM bracelet: 

"Offenders sign an agreement at install they are financially responsible for any damage, or losing the bracelet and/or base station. They must pay for repairs up to replacement cost of $1,500."

Heidi Montag In Transformers 3

|



Heidi Montag is kinda nuts if she thinks she has a chance at a starring role in Transformers 3. 

She actually made an audition tape... a 30-second video clip on Facebook of herself at a shooting range. WTH???  

In true suck-up fashion...she updated her Twitter page:

"Michael Bay I love your work! I know what an artistic brilliant genius you are! Cast me in the next 'Transformers.' "

She sent the "audition" tape to what she thought was Michael's Twitter page...too bad he doesn't have one!

Crystal and Lee A Couple?

|


100521-crystal-leejpg-5536b7b3e4d245fa_large.jpg


Just days after Lee won season 9 of American Idol...I'm hearing that he might be working on Crystal's new single.  

Crystal says despite the rumors of her and Lee being a couple, she's not into him like that he's more like a brother. And even though her brother beat her out for Idol...there is no bad blood between her and Lee:

"I woke up on Wednesday morning and I had this overwhelming feeling of peace and acceptance. And I had this strange feeling inside of me that Lee was going to win. And I was OK with that."

Don't Touch Justin Beiber

|

 

 

jb.jpgSo sorry to tell you...Justin Bieber does not like to be touched.

According to The Daily Telegraph:  

Justin was on an Australian morning show...being led by the station's floor manager: Don't ever f*cking touch me again.

After news of his outburst...Justin hit up his Twitter...

family time with my mom couldnt come at a better time....i was raised to respect others and not gossip...nor answer gossip with anger.

i know my friends family and fans know the person i am. hearing adults spread lies and rumors is part of the job i guess. but i all i have to say is...kill em with kindness.

 

Poor Heidi Montag

heidi-montag-eats.jpgShe decided to have a Twitter-fit about not having any friends!

Transformers 3 Sans Megan Fox

|

rosie-huntington-whiteley-swimsuit.jpgVictoria's Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley will likely be Megan Fox's replacement in 'Transformers 3'.  She would play Shia LaBeouf's love interest if she gets the part!

Although director Michael Bay may not be shedding any tears that Megan won't be back...he co-star Tyrese said:

"I was sad about it, man. Genuinely. We built something here. We all did. We all put our own sauce and stamp and energy on this franchise."

 

No Baby Bump For Gwen Stefani

GwenStefani.jpgDespite the photo's of Gwen holding her midsection...her reps claim she is definately NOT preggers!

Lately she had been rocking baggier clothes than normal and was holding a big bag over her bellly...but from the photos I've seen she looks as slim as ever!

Guess Kingston (who turns 4 this weekend) and 21-month-old Zuma will have to keep waiting for an addition to their family!

brittany murphy and husband.jpgJust 5 month's after Brittany Murphy's mom discovered her body in their Hollywood Hills home...last night she found her son-in-law (Brittany's husband) dead in their home.

Brittany's husband Simon Monjack had a heart condition and was scheduled for bypass surgery.

His publicist Roger Neal released a statement:

"I can tell you he was excited about what the future held in terms of the legacy of Brittany Murphy". Neal told reporters he last saw him Saturday around 8:30pm and "he looked fine to me."

 

Lindsay's Court Date

|

 

 

metal-detector-chic_313x415.jpgAfter the bench warrant for Lindsay's no show in court...then posting bail...finally La Lohan appeared in court today. Judge Marsha Revel told her she could stay out on bail but she cannot drink alcohol and must wear an alcohol-monitoring SCRAM device and submit to random drug testing. (I hope for the best, but considering her past...lets be real!)

Lindsay will have to start wearing the not so cute SCRAM bracelet within 24 hours and will have to be at every scheduled alcohol education classes.

And the judge also told her that she can't leave LA! (Like it will be hard for her to find parties out in LA) The judge really didn't care that Lindsay is supposed to be in Texas to start filming a movie!

Judge Marsha Revel asked her if she understood the conditions, she answered, "Yes, your honor."

La Lohan is due back in court July 6 to determine if she violated her probation...if she does than she'll be looking at 180 days in jail!  

Demi Lovato & Joe Jonas Call It Quits

|

 

 

wilderama_lovato_jonas_lc_052410.jpg

 

Might be a little uncomfortable this summer on tour with Camp Jonas...seeing as how Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas have called it quits!

Demi hit up her Twitter page to address the breakup rumors:

"There are so many crazy rumors flying around today. I'd like to clear a few things up. First, Joe and I did split but it wasn't over the phone. Things didn't work out but we'll remain friends. Secondly, I am NOT dating anybody already. Nothing is more important to me than the relationship I have with my fans. Just thought you guys should know this."

Then Joe Jonas gave his side of the story to People:

"Demi and I knew going into our romantic relationship that it may not be an easy one. I realize over the time we have shared together that I feel I care more about our friendship right now. It was my choice to breakup but I love her as a friend. She's been there for me when I needed her. I will continue to be her friend and be there for her."

Wonder if he'll still feel so friendly if the rumors of her dating Wilmer Valderama are true!


 

Elin's Playing Hardball

tiger_woods-elin-marriage%20-%20wedding.jpgElin Nordegren not only wants $750M (might be hard since Forbes has estimated his net work at only $600 million) and full custody of the kids...she said h*ll NO to the lifetime "confidentiality clause" that would prevent her from writing a book or doing any interviews about Tiger or his "affairs"!  

Safe Landing in DC

|

 

 

bartha.jpgJustin Bartha and Ashley Olsen are probably still sending thatnks to the "Big" guy upstairs...after an electrical fire broke out on their United flight last week from NY to LA.

The plane was forced to make an emergency landing in DC, when the fire broke out. 

Thankfully the fire was extinguished before the plane landed...but Bartha said:


"It was not something I would wish on anyone to happen on a plane. But we're all fine. And everything's good, the whole plane had a burning smell."

Lindsay out On Bail

|

 

 

 

lindsay.jpgAs part of Lindsay Lohan's court order...she's gonna have to stay away from drugs and alcohol. (Not very likely)

Anywho, she is due in court tomorrow morning...Judge Marsha Revel is probably going to remind La Lohan about the conditions of her bail...refraining from consuming alcohol, wearing a SCRAM bracelet to monitor alcohol consumption, and submitting to random drug testing at least once a week.

Tiger Woods Is On To The Next One

|

 

 

 

double-life_450x318.jpgSo I'm guessing Tiger Woods may not have learned his lesson. Despite the fact he may have to pay Elin $750M!!!

Recently Mr. I Can't Keep It In My Pant...was spotted with a blonde chic that looked lot like his soon-to-be ex Elin Woods! She was sitting in the golf cart while he was hitting golf balls. 

And lately he's been seen enjoying the nightlife scene in Orlando.

Poor Lindsay Is Still Stuck In France

|

 

la lohan.jpgLindsay Lohan is planning to be a no-show tomorrow for her DUI probation hearing...cuz supposedly someone stole her passport in Cannes, France.

La Lohan claims she really tried yesterday to catch a flight...she even showed up at the airport...but since she didn't have a passport, she wasn't allowed to board (shocking, when did they start checking passports)

Supposedly she has an appointment at the U.S. Embassy tomorrow at 9 a.m. to try to get another passport so she can get home.

But trust that if Lindsay is trying to pull a fast one...Judge Revel will not be too pleased!

Of course her lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, claims: "I was on the phone with Lindsay's assistant the entire night and we're doing everything we can to resolve this. Lindsay is distraught because it was her intention to get back to L.A. today to do more alcohol education classes and appear in court tomorrow."

Come on now...does that even sound like Lindsay?

s-LEBRON-JAMES-MOM-DELONTE-WEST-AFFAIR-GLORIA-large.jpgOr so LeBron James would like to believe. The rumor hit last week that King James' teammate Delonte West was having "relations" with his mom.

Well LeBron's attorney was quick to draft and send a cease and desist email to the sports blog that dropped the story on Friday

Some believe that LeBron finding out the truth about his mom & teammate...was the real reason the Cavs lost the last 3 games of the playoffs!

Juan-Carlos Cruz from the Food Network's Calorie Commando...allegedly recruited some homeless guys to kill his wife.

The Santa Monica, Calif. police arrested him on suspicion to commit murder and he is currently being held on $5 million bail.

Supposedly, Cruz gave a homeless man 'Little Dave' a package with a box cutter, disposable cell phone, gloves, a pocket watch and half of 10 $100 bills. (seriously..the bills were torn in half)

Juan-Carlos promised to give him the other half of the bills once his wife was murdered.

Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene are hoping to pull in $4M (each) for their roles in Breaking Dawn...but my insiders hit me that the producers are not against tossing one of the out and replacing them with a cheaper actor...yikes!  

 

Avil & Lindsay Fighting

Lindsay-Lohan.jpgAvil Lavigne and Lindsay Lohan had some not so nice words for each other at Hollywood's Chateau Marmont.

So Avil was chillin with her cute boo Brody Jenner and some other friends...in walks La Lohan and Avril went nuts:

'Get the hell out of my face, you are fake, you are a loser. I don't like false people. Stay away from me and my friends."

Which of course prompted Lindsay to reply:

'Don't threaten me!' Then La Lohan (forgetting that she's not quite the star she once was) asked security to throw her out. When they refused...she stormed in true 'diva' style!

Miley Cirus Can't Be Tamed

|

 

miley-cyrus-pole-dancing.jpgMiley Cyrus is certainly a wild one! Pretty sure it's inappropriate for a 16 year old to give a grown man a lap dance...but that didn't stop her last year at the wrap party for The Last Song...when she hoped on producer Adam Shankman's lap to show him what she's working with.

In all fairness...Adam is openly gay...but it just seems off. Here's how it went down:

Adam on the dance floor with a drink in hand...he and Miley grinding on each other. Then she turns to face him and starts seductively unbuttoning her shirt...then they move the party to the couch with Miley doing her best 'Striptease' impression (too bad kids were just a few feet away at the time)...good luck to the parents trying to explain why Hannah Montana has a freaky side!

Bench Warrant for Dwyane Wade's Wife

|

 

 

wife.pngSiovaughn Wade has caused so much drama in this divorce from her husband Dwyane Wade. She recently filed a suit against Gabrielle Union (on behalf of her kids) for breaking up her marriage. Not to mention the STD rumors and the dead beat/abusive dad rumors...just to name a few!

Well today she was a no-show for a scheduled court date in her ongoing divorce proceedings...and so Cook County Circuit Court Judge Marya Nega issued a bench warrant and set bail at $10,000.

Judge Nega was not happy...saying:

"When things don't go according to Mrs. Wade's way, all of a sudden the phone's turned off. Maybe it's time for the kids to go live with Dad for a month or two". The judge is tired of Siovaughn's games...not allowing Dwyane to talk to them every night.

After her erratic behavior, Wade's attorney, James Pritikin, told reporters that he had been planning to ask the judge to give his client physical custody of their sons, Zion, 8, and Zaire, 2...that Siovaughn "unstable, dishonest and unbalanced" and are requesting that she in undergo a psych test.

According to Siovaughn's attorney...she thought her attorney had been in a car accident and just assumed that court would be cancelled...really???

 

Lena Horne Gone at 92

|

 

lenahorne.jpgLast night, the world lost the legendary Lena Hone...one of the 20th century's most popular performers and civil rights trailblazer whose career suffered gravely for her principles.

Shortly after moving to Hollywood in 1941, she became the first black performer signed to a major film studio, MGM. But due to the racial climate in the country during that time, MGM rarely gave her actual acting roles, mostly limiting her appearances to show-stopping musical numbers that would be edited out entirely in racially sensitive markets like the American south.

In 1947 she secretly wed a Jewish American,(MGM's musical director) Lennie Hayton in France.

The iconic Lena Horne's humble beginnings were at Harlem's legendary Cotton Club when she was just 16 years old. She soon caught Hollywood fever...and moved to the West Coast to headline a new Hollywood nightspot. During those times, blacks were not allowed to live in Hollywood, so she had someone rent her a house and "when the neighbors found out, Humphrey Bogart, who lived right across the street from me, raised hell with them for passing around a petition to get rid of me. [Bogart] sent word over to the house that if anybody bothered me, please let him know."

Helena Christensen in the Buff

helena-christensen-nude.jpgHelena Christensen is rocking her birthday suit for Reebok's new ad campaign for its EasyTone trainers.

Why she loves the shoes:

"With my busy schedule, it's a perfect way to do something without spending hours in the gym. I'm impatient, when I try something I like to see results immediately. I could feel these working right away which is why I've stuck with them."

 

Highest Paid TV Child Actor...Not Miley Cirus

| | Comments (1)

 

charlie-sheen-jon-cryer-and-angus-t-jones-nBa1x7.jpgOk, so I'm a little jealous of the highest-paid child actor on TV...and no it's not Hannah Montana/Miley Cirus (who didn't make the top 5 on the New York Post's list of the top 10 highest paid kid actors)!

It's actually Angus T. Jones from the CBS hit show, 'Two and a Half Men.' He pulls in $250,000 per episode. 

Here's the rest of the list:

  1. Miranda Cosgrove: $180,000 per episode for iCarly.
  2. Selena Gomez: $25,000 per episode for Wizards of Waverly Place.
  3. Dylan and Cole Sprouse: $20,000 each per episode for The Suite Life.
  4. Keke Palmer: $20,000 per episode for True Jackson
  5. Miley Cyrus: $15,000 per episode of Hannah Montana.(Although in all fairness...her franchise and 'Hannah Montana' namesake are worth millions...some even estimate a full billion!)  

 

Kristin Chenoweth Not Glee-ful

|

 

chenoweth-kristin_.jpgRecently Krisitn Chenoweth has made cameos on Pushing Daisies and Glee...but now she's sounding off about a recent edition of Newsweek, where openly gay writer Ramin Setoodeh strongly believes that homosexuals do NOT make convincing straight men on stage or on film. He bashed Kristin's co-star Sean Hayes, calling his performance in the Broadway musical Promises, as "wooden and insincere."

Kristin responded:

"I'd normally keep silent on such matters and write such small-minded viewpoints off as perhaps a blip in common sense. But the offense I take to this article, and your decision to publish it is not really even related to my profession or my work with Hayes or Jonathan Groff (also singled out in the article as too 'queeny' to play 'straight'). This article offends me because I am a human being, a woman and a Christian."

"Thousands of people have traveled from all over the world to enjoy Hayes' performance and don't seem to have one single issue with his sexuality! They have no problem buying him as a love-torn heterosexual man. Audiences aren't giving a darn about who a person is sleeping with or his personal life. Give me a break!"

"We're actors first, whether we're playing prostitutes, baseball players, or the Lion King. Audiences come to theater to go on a journey. It's a character and it's called acting, and I'd put Hayes and his brilliance up there with some of the greatest actors period."

"The examples he provides (what scientists call 'selection bias') to prove his 'gays can't play straight' hypothesis are sloppy in my opinion... No one needs to see a bigoted, factually inaccurate article that tells people who deviate from heterosexual norms that they can't be open about who they are and still achieve their dreams."

Lawrence Taylor Out On Bail

|

 

lawrence-taylor.jpgNFL Hall of famer Lawrence Taylor was arrested for allegedly raping and beating a 15-yr old girl in his hotel room last night in Ramapo, NJ. The girl is supposedly a runaway from a NYC pimp.  Taylor is looking at 3rd degree rape which includes having intercourse with a minor.

Taylor is adamant that he's not guilty...and his wife thinks the charges are "all bullsh!t."

She things it's a little too coincidental that just a few days ago LT was on A&E's documentary series Fame and Recovery...now these 'rape' allegations start.

Ramapo Supervisor Christopher St. Lawrence said that investigators found LT asleep inside the room when they first arrived to the hotel and they were able to recovered a condom and other physical evidence from the room...but absolutely no drugs or paraphernalia at the scene.

The girls pimp (black-eye and all), the alleged victim and a third person were picked up by NYPD earlier today.

The girls pimp was charged with unlawful imprisonment, assault and endangering the welfare of a minor

Kendra Wilkinson Exposed

kendra-wilkinson3.jpgLeopard's really can't change their spots! Yesterday, I told you about Kendra Wilkinson trying to shut down the porn company threatening to release her very graphic sex tape...supposedly cuz she's a new wife and mom (oh, the horror!)

Anywho, it turns out the reason she had her lawyers send them a cease and desist is cuz she wanted to be the one to sell the tape and pocket the $$$!   

Rehab for Lindsay

Dwyane Wade's Ex Wife Suing His Jump-off

|

 

wadeunion.jpgDwyane Wade's soon-to-be ex-wife is suing his new boo Gabrielle Union on behalf of their son's for the 'emotional distress' their parents divorce has caused them!

Siohvaughn Wade is really pulling out all the punches...below are the highlights of her lawsuit:

  • That their 8-year-old son told a court appointed representative to put his father in jail so he wouldn't have to go back to his house and that he calls the home, the house "where the woman kissing daddy lives."
  • That Wade's 2-year-old (supposedly) nearly drowned while Dwyane was taking care of him.
  • That he introduced Gabrielle Union to his sons as his girlfriend and told the young boys "that is why your mom and I are going to divorce." (does that even sound right?)
  • The 8-year-old has suffered so much anxiety that he has lost hair and has bald spots and must undergo court-ordered mental evaluations.

Keep in mind she's been going back and forth with her stories since the divorce proceedings began...remember...he gave me an STD...opps, no he didn't! I'm just saying!

Now that she's a wife and mom...she desperately doesn't want this tape to be released so she had her lawyers send Vivid Entertainment a 'cease and desist'. This is gonna get really interesting!

Bombshell Has Black Friends

michelle-bombshell-mcgee-image_246x379.pngThe ridiculous-ness that is Michelle 'Bombshell' Mcgee...actually said:  "I have too many colored friends" while on The Howard Stern Show. (Cuz we even say colored these days???)

She was in Howard Stern's hot seat after those Nazi photos, white power tattoos and just her plain slutty ways!  

She did spill the beans on Jesse James man-parts...and despite his nickname "Vanilla Gorilla"...he's really pretty average sized.  

Kim Kardashian's Ex Husband Speaks Out

|

 

kim-kardashian-damon-thomas.jpgLast week, rumors were a buzz about Kim Kardashian's ex-husband allegedly physically abusing her during their 4 year marriage. Not to be out done...Damon Thomas called up the tabloids to give his version of the facts.

He said Kimmy is "obsessed with fame" and "jealous and competitive with her sisters." (shocking revelation, I know!) "She can't write or sing or dance, so she does harmful things in order to validate herself in the media". "That's a fame whore to me. It's just not cool at all."

As for the alleged abuse accusations, he claims it is "absolutely not true" and that Kim never filed any kind of restraining order on him.

And he's claiming that she was getting her freak on with several dudes during their marriage...at one point she was kicking it with J. Lo's ex-husband Chris Judd! Which is supposedly the 'real' reason he filed for divorce!

Apparently he had paid for Kimmy's lipo and her tata's. Then as soon as she was healed, he saw a photo of her on a date with Chris Judd in clothes he bought her for her post-surgery body!

Joe Jackson Speaks on Gay Allegations

|

dr-arnold-klein-photo.jpg

The King of Pop's dad Joe Jackson is a denying allegations that Michael Jackson had an affair with Jason Pfeiffer (Michael's former friend Dr. Klien's office assistant). 

Joe was upset, stating: "It's not true. Michael was not gay. Klein has no respect for Michael ... to say things about him when he's gone is shameful."

Jason Pfeifer was trying to air his dirty laundry...claiming he had a sexual relations with Michael, and that Dr. Arnold Klein walked in on them sans their shirts. 

Not sure why the uber private Michael would have been openly gay, like Dr. Klein is implying.

Bones Star Being Extorted

|

notorious-rachel-uchitel.jpg

One of Tiger's many jump-offs...Rachel Uchitel, is denying any part of the extortion plot against Bones star David Boreanaz. 

Rachel is 'outraged' and actually plans to fly back from Mexico tomorrow to hold a press conference (a.k.a an extension of her 15 minutes of fame!) 

The well-known adulterer actually slept with Boreanaz while his wife was pregnant...yet steadfastly denies that she demanded a six-figure settlement from him. 

Turns out that David admitted the affair to his wife Jaime before the gossip mags ran the story...and she was rightfully upset. (I would be upset too if my husband was texting his jump-off while I'm in labor with our child!)

Halle Berry & Trey Songz

halle and gabriel.jpg

Last week I told you that Halle Berry and her baby daddy Gabriel Aubrey had called it quits. Supposedly Gabriel had grown tired of their 9 year age difference. But really Halle told him to kick rocks: 

"She kicked him out months ago because he wasn't able to pull his weight in the relationship and she wanted to move on". 

Aubry released a statement saying he was sad about the break-up, but recognized Halle as a "special and beautiful" person. 

Halle rebounded quickly...she spent Friday night watching a Broadway play a tender Roni.

Then Saturday she spent time at the Revlon Run/Walk for Women...and Trey Songz was trying to get his cougar on!

lynn-redgrave.jpg

Oscar-nominated actress, Lynn Redgrave passed away last night in her Connecticut home.  She was surrounded by children Ben, Pema and Annabel. 

Her publicist Rick Miramontez, spoke on behalf of Redgrave's family:  

"Our beloved mother Lynn Rachel passed away peacefully after a seven year journey with breast cancer. She lived, loved and worked harder than ever before. The endless memories she created as a mother, grandmother, writer, actor and friend will sustain us for the rest of our lives. Our entire family asks for privacy through this difficult time. 

The family has endured tragedies leading up to this. Last year her niece, Natasha Richardson, died from head injuries sustained during a skiing accident. Most recently, her older brother, Corin Redgrave passed last month.  

Our thoughts and prayers are with her family.

halle and gabriel.jpgAcademy, Emmy and Image award winner Halle Berry and baby daddy Gabriel Aubry have called it quits after 5 years together. Not sure why after all this time their age would be a problem...but supposedly the age difference (he's 34, she's 43) was the main reason for the split...and he started noticing "other women" and losing interest in Halle. They will continue to co-parent 2 year old daughter Nahla.

Alleged Affair in the White House

|

 

vera-baker-picture.jpgRumors have been swirling that President Barack Obama had an affair with former campaign aide Vera Baker. The National Enquirer (consider the source) is claiming that a "security video" could expose everything!

Vera Baker insists that "nothing happened" between them. However, the Enquirer says anti-Obama "operatives" are digging hard into the alleged affair and willing to pay $1 million for information confirming it.

A celebrity gossip tabloid, claims to have an anonymous admission from a limo driver...who alledges that he: "drove them to the hotel and they went in together! My services for the evening were done," he notes, adding that "there was absolutely no indication she was going to leave the hotel that night."

Investigators are trying to get their hands on the "supposed" on-site hotel surveillance video camera footage could provide indisputable evidence that the couple spent the night together there.
