Nick Carter

2009-02-07T10:21:00.000-08:00

Living in denial...

Nick Carter admitted that it took him seven years to admit that he has a drinking/drugs problem. I don't know how being arrested for driving under influence didn't help. Anyhoo, he is now stepping, saying that he's an out-and-proud ex-junkie or something of the sort - because he has been diagnosed with cardiomyopathy, a potentially fatal heart condition. More here.

Dakota Fanning

2009-02-07T04:59:00.001-08:00

Twilight: The Sick Twist

There are nasty rumors going around about Dakota Fanning and Robert Pattinson. Fanning is rumored to appear in the next "Twilight" movie, and that she's super excited because she has a crush on him. This is creepy and wrong. Not only is he a vampire, he's 22. She is 14. 22-14=8. Can't stress it enough. More here.

Hilary Duff

2009-02-07T04:49:00.000-08:00

Bringing the 'B' in 'Bonnie'

Hilary Duff, one of the ex-Disney princesses, is back to bitchy. Remember her constant fights with Lindsay Lohan over ~~Nick~~ Aaron Carter (I know)? Well, now she was offended by Faye Dunaway who basically said that Hilary can't act worth a crap. A remake of 'Bonnie and Clyde' is being filmed, and Hilary is cast as Bonnie. Dunaway's quote? “Couldn’t they have at least cast a real actress?” Of course, Hilary had a comeback -

“I think that my fans that are going to go see the movie don’t even know who she is. I think [what Faye said] was a little unnecessary, but I might be mad if I looked like that now too.” Ouch.

Miley Cyrus

2009-02-05T15:49:00.000-08:00

Racist Cyrus!

The ever-annoying Miley Cyrus is the subject of yet another photo controversy. This time, she's being accused of acting all racist - for stretching the corners of her eyes in one picture. Now, as much as I dislike Miley, this is just bollocks. Of course she had something to say, but it's so ridiculous and predictable, I'm not even going to bother to type it here. She does compare herself with Britney at one point though. Anyways, my consensus is - if you didn't attack her when she covered Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun", you have no right to attack her now. More here.

Sex and the City 2

2009-02-05T13:01:00.001-08:00

The Golden Girls

It's official! Sex and the City: The Movie: The Sequel: Grannies in the City is going to happen. The contracts were signed on Wednesday and the shooting should begin this summer, with the release date set sometime next year. Some are excited, some not so much. My favorite reaction: "Is it going to be the prequel to The Golden Girls?" Full story here.

Christian Bale

2009-02-05T08:18:00.000-08:00

Embarassing his momma...

Have you heard the infamous audio of Christian Bale throwing a fit on the set of one of his upcoming moving? It's pretty awesome - almost as good as the one thrown by Julia Roberts. It seems like the cameraman accidentally walked through the scene during shoting and it pissed him off. However, it's yesterday's news now - his mom is now pulling a Dina Lohan, issuing statements and stuff. She says she is embarrassed, but understand's why he was upset. More here.

No Doubt

2009-01-21T16:04:00.000-08:00

Back together.

Shut up! Or, should I say, don't speak? Anyways, No Doubt are reuniting! And going on tour! Now, I feel like they should have at least released a single if not an album first, but whatever. I guess it's back to the 90's this summer. They are going on tour with Paramore. I hope Gwen is cool after all of this. After all, "The Sweet Escape" wasn't as good as "L.A.M.B.", so the girl must be depressed. Oh, whatever. More here.

Lily Allen

2009-01-21T16:00:00.000-08:00

La Isla Bonita

The three-nippled freak of nature, Lily Allen, bought an island after being intoxicated. Now this is the kind of stuff I live for. Well, not really, but it's this kind of stuff I love Lily Allen for! Not only does she have a superfluous nipple, she also owns an island on Jamaica. More here.

Taylor Momsen

2009-01-20T23:29:00.000-08:00

Wild Child!

Little J of "Gossip Girl" is not a wild child! She's told Page Six how she hates being labeled as a party girl and that all that she ever does is sit and home and play the guitar. Although this kinda reeks of Lohan, I don't care. It's boring! However, what is not boring, it's this clip that surfaced on the internet not so long ago of Momsen escaping the paparazzi. Holy shit! No wonder they call her wild!

Scarlett Johansson

2009-01-19T14:55:00.001-08:00

Gentlemen prefer *natural* blondes!

Holy moly! Scarlett Johansson does a Marilyn Monroe - inspired photoshoot for a D&G campaign. Everybody seems to be going Marylin lately. Remember Lindsay Lohan's take on the legend? The pics were good (and racy!), but the Scarlett ones are probably gonna be WAY hotter, judging by the one that has leaked. Check out the Lindsay Lohan ones here and here (or don't, if you can't handle boobs), and read more about the new D&G campaign here. Which ones do you prefer?

Julia Roberts

2009-01-19T14:38:00.000-08:00

Out of her face!

Julia Roberts went ballistic after having a paparazzi follow her around Venice, California all day. Luckily, it's all on tape. And it's priceless - I love watching her get all crazy and nuts and repeatedly using the F-word. The guy actually sounds scared. America's sweetheart, anybody? Seriously, Britney has got NOTHING on her.

Amy Winehouse

2009-01-19T04:01:00.001-08:00

"They tried to make me go to rehab, I said no, no, no,..."

Yup, that's Amy Winehouse you see up there. I know the girl never actually looked normal, but now she's even wackier, that she's off drugs. She now lives on some remote tropical island where she does weird exercises (similar to whatever she's doing in this pic) and basically begging every living being to have sex with her. Here are some extracts from The Sun's interview with her:

On her husband wanting to divorce her:
“I still love my Blake. I won’t let him divorce me. He’s still in jail but the moment he comes out I’ll be there waiting for him. I love him because he’s just like me. Blake is the male version of me. We’re perfect for each other. I don’t want to go back home to England. I want to wait for Blake here.”

On sleeping with other men:
"While Blake is in jail I’m still gonna have a good time — he can’t do much about it. But once he comes out we’ll be together again. There’s some nice lads here, I am just having fun. I don’t want anybody else because I’ve got my Blake."

On quitting drugs but still getting wasted:
“I am not doing drugs and am doing lots of fitness. I’ve started writing songs. I feel great — apart from today. I feel like s**t after a late one last night.”

On rescuing a woman on the beach:
“I thought she was going to drown. All of a sudden she just fell off the boat and was thrown by the sea on to some rocks. I ran down and grabbed her and helped her back to the beach but she was covered in scratches. I might get myself a job as a lifeguard here!”

On constantly hitting up guests for threesomes:
The male guest, who asked not to be named, told me: “As soon as we arrived at the resort Amy was all over my girlfriend. She was telling her, ‘You’re gorgeous. I’d love to **** you. Bring your boyfriend, he can watch’. She was quite clear what she wanted, she was saying, ‘You two can spend the night in my room’. If she had been at all good looking we might have done it."

So yeah, there you go. They tried to make her go to rehab, and she said, no way, I'm gonna get some booty on some godforsaken island! You go Amy!

Tom Cruise

2009-01-18T06:26:00.000-08:00

Hitler's Nightmare!

Tom Cruise, the lovable weirdo, had another strange statement. He said in an interview that, growing up, he wanted to kill Adolf Hitler. "As a child studying history (?) and looking at documents (?!), I wondered, why didn't someone stand up and try to stop it?" This all has to do with his new movie "Valkyrie", where Tom plays a role of a guy conspiring to kill Hitler. Apparently, some actors take their jobs more seriously than others. Full story here.

Ashlee Simpson

2009-01-17T11:21:00.000-08:00

Bonnie and Clyde

Ashlee Simpson and that boyfriend of hers, Pete Wentz are set to star in an upcoming episode of "CSI: New York". Now, I've never seen the show, but I can't help but wonder if these two can really fit into anything. But hey, let's give them a fair chance. Rumor has it they will probably be a pair of criminals on the show, much like Bonnie and Clyde. Let's wait and see.

Chris Noth

2009-01-17T08:03:00.000-08:00

Quote of the day

Here's what Chris Noth, aka Mr. Big had to say about there being yet another "Sex and the City" movie:

"I bet there will be another one. Too many executives want too much money."

You said it, sister! But I don't see how this is a bad thing for you, since Mr. Big is, like, your only important role. But seriously, what's gonna happen in the next movie?! Carrie taking her grandchildren shopping!?

Patrick Swayze

2009-01-17T06:20:00.001-08:00

Out of hospital

Remember "Dirty Dancing" and its dashing star, Patrick Swayze? He's been battling cancer for over a year now, and has recently checked into a hospital because of pneumonia. He has this really bad form of cancer, and though some gave him weeks, the doctors have evidently done miracles. He is now out of hospital, recovering in his LA home. More here.

Lily Allen

2009-01-17T05:43:00.000-08:00

That's hott!!

Here's something freaky for you, ladies and gentleman! That cute singer from London, England actually has a third nipple! And you know I'm not the guy who likes to gossip without evidence, so check out the clip below! Lily is apparently not shy, so she shows off her superfluous nipple, and even lets the reporter touch it! Gotta love it!

Lindsay Lohan

2009-01-16T08:08:00.000-08:00

Turning a new leaf!

Our favorite lesbian-de-jour, Lindsay Lohan, recently gave an interview that actually revolved around her acting, which is always refreshing. She talked about how she hates how people label her as a party girl, how she doesn't get serious roles (like the ones Scarlet Johansson does) and how she wants to turn her career around. She also shares the piece of advice given to her by the late Heath Ledger. Lindsay has a new movie in store for 2009 which actually looks really funny, check out the trailer below! Full story here.

Blake Lively

2009-01-16T06:58:00.000-08:00

Even More Gossip

Yup, that is her. The star of the teen soap opera "Gossip Girl" has recently graced the cameras of "Vogue" in a retro photoshoot. The reactions are so far amazing, though many are criticizing her for her Golden Globes look. There are also some people thinking that for "Vogue" to take the current it-girl and feature her on the cover is simply a reaction to the problems the magazine is facing (less and less people are buying it, plus Anna Wintour may be getting the sack). But I can't hep but love the photos! Now, not only is Blake going retro, the entire show is - the CW network is thinking of making a spin-off series that would take place in the 80's with a teenaged Lily van der Woodsen (currently played by actress Kelly Rutherford) as the main character. Yawn. I say, recycle the spin-off idea, and bring us more "Gossip Girl"!

You can find two more photographs here and here.

Joaquin Phoenix

2009-01-16T03:53:00.000-08:00

Still Singing

Rumor has it that Casey Affleck is to direct a documentary about Joaquin Phoenix. This sounds a little dumb, don't you think? What sounds even more dumb is that Joaquin Phoenix is reportedly ditching Hollywood in order to pursue his musical career, which Affleck will document. Smart move! You went from playing a fireman to playing Johnny Cash, and now that your career actually exists, you're gonna play some music? And have someone tape it? I'm SO not watching. More here.

Vivienne Westwood

2009-01-16T03:37:00.000-08:00

I Heart Pamela

Have you read the latest interview with Vivienne Westwood? The fashion designer actually had some pretty interesting things to say, like how not to be a fashion victim, or what to buy when you go shopping. However, she wrapped up the interview by saying that if she could pick out of any person from the arts, cinema or history to represent her brand, she would pick - Pamela Anderson! OK, so Marie Antoinette wasn't really a professional, and Madonna can sometimes be bitchy, but Pamela!? I didn't know she designed one-piece red bathing suits. More here.

Kate Winslet

2009-01-15T13:47:00.001-08:00

"OMG, I WON THIS BITCH!"

OK, so the Golden Globes have come and gone, but one thing I always pay attention to the most when it comes to awards like these, are the acceptance speeches. And here's a little game, you need to try and guess who this is. Who forgets Angelina Jolie's name? Who thanks Leonardo DiCaprio before thanking her husband? And who mentions the hair and make-up department before her kids? Oh, and who looks like they've been wanting an award since "Titanic", and are so excited, they're having multiple orgasms? Kate Winslet.

And here's one of my favorite ones. Halle Berry, acting out after winning the Oscar. I just love how she can't catch her breath, crying and stuff, and Nicole is like, hating her, while Gwyneth is embarassed and Renee is emotional. Awesome. "I wanna thank the academy for choosing me to be the vessel." Don't you just love award season? :D

Britney Spears

2009-01-15T12:50:00.001-08:00

Britney to join Carrie and the gang!

I always thought "Sex and the City: The Movie" was a bad idea. Then I was almost-right, with the movie being somewhat satisfactory, but not nearly as fabulous as the show itself. Plus, they cast Jennifer Hudson as the surprisingly-annoying assistant of Carrie. Now, they're doing it all over again. They are making a sequel, PLUS they're thinking of throwing in some Britney for good measure.
Sarah Jessica Parker told MTVUK, "My idea is to have someone like Britney Spears move to New York as my cousin or niece and Carrie would show her the ropes.” Now, this sounds as total gossip to me (I mean, since when is SJP involved in the writing process?), but still, it sounds interesting, in theory at least.

Prince Harry

2009-01-15T11:28:00.000-08:00

The Sophisticated Prince

The Spare, as Prince Harry is sometimes referred to, is misbehaving again. After he was criticized as racist earlier this week for calling someone a "Paki", he is now praised for being almost gay. Peter Tatchell, a human rights activist has depicted a scene of a video which features Harry mouthing "I love you" to a colleague (!) and then kissing and licking him (!?) as a sign of liberation and enlightenment. The whole thing must have given the Queen a headache. Full story here.

Back again!

2009-01-15T11:27:00.000-08:00

I am very sorry for not posting in a while, and temporarily closing the site. I am however proud to announce that your favorite celebrity blog is back and running.

xoxo
Nikola.

Madonna

2008-10-20T01:25:00.000-07:00

Guy Ritchie - Emotionally Retarded!

Now that the divorce is official, the Queen of Pop is not holding back any feelings. During her recent performance in Boston, just before performing a song "Miles Away", off her new album "Hard Candy", she said "This song is for the emotionally retarded. Maybe you know some people who fall into that category. I know I do." Wow. People really don't like anything more than a good, juicy celebrity divorce, and this one should really satisfy us all. I do feel bad about Madonna, but according to this report, the Queen will live.

Ben Barnes

2008-10-16T06:18:00.000-07:00

Our very own Dorian Grey

The first (high-resolution!) stills from the upcoming and highly-anticipated film version of Wilde's "The Picture of Dorian Grey" have emerged! They feature Colin Firth, Emilia Fox and Ben "Prince Caspian" Barnes as the title character. The movie is expected to be a more darker, more faithful adaptation of the book than its predecessors. Click here for the pics.

Britney Spears

2008-10-16T06:01:00.000-07:00

Here we go again.

I am very sorry about the little break the writer of this blog took, but I promise it's got more to do with his many obligations than his laziness. And I have just the right post to return with. Se, Britney Spears knows a thing or two about comebacks (since she's had, like, three). Anyways, the last in line is in a form of her new video for the upcoming single "Womanizer." The video itself is nothing special, really - it's basically "Toxic" no.2, with some "I'm a Slave 4 U" thrown in for good measure. In other words, the new and improved Britney is actually the old and tested Britney (only naked). And maybe that's a good thing. See the video here.

Emma Watson

2008-09-21T10:07:00.000-07:00

Look at our little Hermione!

Wow, Ron Weasley's chick is all grown up! After wrapping up the shoot for "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", Emma Watson found some time to pose for Harper's Bazaar. We all knew she liked fashion when she was seen at the London Fashion Week, but who knew this girl could show it off? Here are the fabulous (and quite exclusive!) new Hogwarts-inspired photographs where Emma is wearing everything from Alexander McQueen to Vivienne Westwood!

Katie Holmes

2008-09-19T07:24:00.001-07:00

Causing a riot!

Wow, Katie Holmes sure had a fun Thursday night! The play "All My Sons" featured Holmes' Broadway debut, and she has so far got the best reviews imaginable. The preview performance sold out, and attracted both Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman, and they both caused quite a stir at the theatre - especially after the anti-Scientology protest began in front! Full story here.

Hilary Swank

2008-09-19T07:24:00.000-07:00

Hospitalized!

The two-time Oscar winner and Calvin Klein model, Hilary Swank, went to see the doctor since she was feeling some discomfort, and he immediately rushed her to a surgery in order to remove a small benign growth. Fortunately, her condition is now stable. For details, click here.

Lindsay Lohan

2008-09-17T07:54:00.002-07:00

Not Obama-friendly

Lindsay Lohan has recently been very outspoken about politics, most recently calling Sarah Palin "a narrow-minded, media-obsessed homophobe". And now she was also eager to help promote the Democratic nominee, Barack Obama, but that he firmly but politely, said no. Of course, everybody had something to say. The ever-annoying Michael Lohan actually said something humorous - "Everyone is entitled to an opinion and so is Obama and his staff. Then again, you know what they say about opinions." Full story here.

M.I.A.

2008-09-17T07:54:00.001-07:00

M.I.A. goes Stefani!

It seems like nowadays, it's not enough if an artist can just sing or play an instrument. Now people expect that they can write children's books, be politically active or even run for president. M.I.A. obviously felt the same way, and launched her own line of clothing with every possible color imaginable + some leopard prints. Omg.

Paris Hilton

2008-09-17T07:54:00.000-07:00

The lonely Hilton!

If you've been wondering what the world's most famous heiress and soon-to-be-president has been up to, here's some scoop: Paris was window-shopping for a new best friend. The latest MTV reality show, "Paris Hilton's My New Best Friend" is finished and ready to air, and Paris now has a new bff, who is "hot, loyal and paparazzi-ready". Go figure.

Fran Drescher

2008-09-16T17:29:00.000-07:00

The closet-tidying nanny!

Fran Drescher, who never should have become a celebrity in the first place, but then got lucky and made one funny TV show, is now a gay rights activist. And no, she's not getting married, but joining her ex-husband in an effort to preserve the gay rights in California. Full story here.

Ricky Martin

2008-09-16T17:20:00.000-07:00

Daddy Martin

I'm a bit behind with my blog posts and celebrity news, but I do manage to cover most of the important stuff as soon as they happen. This wasn't the case with the obviously gay Ricky Martin becoming a dad. Whoa. He now has twin sons delivered a la carte by a surrogate mother, and they now live with their father. Go Ricky! Full story here.

Gwen Stefani

2008-09-14T06:40:00.000-07:00

Makes hotels look fancy!

The trendy singer turned fashionista Gwen Stefani now designs stuff for hotel employees! The "mastermind" behind the "L.A.M.B." label (named after her debut solo album) has taken on the task of designing women's dresses for people working at the W hotels. Click here for the full story, or here if you want to see an exclusive sketch of the dresses.

Kanye West

2008-09-12T07:13:00.000-07:00

Arrested!

Someone needs to take a chill pill! Apparently, Kanye West and his manager were arrested at an airport and are labeled with "felony vandalism"! A video leaked online, which shows West and his manager take a camera from a photographer and the photographer screaming "Police! Help me!" Then they destroyed the camera. Full story here.

Mischa Barton

2008-09-12T07:09:00.000-07:00

Single again!

The annoying Mischa Barton has split up with her boyfriend Taylor Locke, after finding it impossible to balance work commitments and love life. And just so you know, she broke up with him. Poor Locke - imagine being dumped by someone who sports a personality of an oatmeal. Full story here.

Kylie Minogue

2008-09-11T05:18:00.000-07:00

Stuck in the closet

I guess it can be pretty difficult for superstar-gay-icons not to have a taste of what it's like out of the closet. Madonna pretty much came out some 10 years ago, and now here comes Kylie Minogue, who must have been pretty pissed when she wasn't in the recent top ten women lesbians would love to love poll. She has been quoted saying how she might turn gay, since there is a lack of man-lovin' in her life. Gimme a break.

James Franco

2008-09-11T05:04:00.000-07:00

Franco is a wannabe, Murphy is a sell-out

Here comes another idiotic campaign for the new fragrance "Gucci by Gucci Pour Homme". It features the wannabe superstar James Franco, the actor they call whenever Orlando Bloom's cell is switched off. Anyway, the only good thing about this commercial is the soundtrack featuring the fashion-forward diva of the moment, Róisín Murphy. Check out the ad below.

Marc Jacobs

2008-09-10T06:55:00.000-07:00

Mr. Exclusive

Although previous parties thrown by designer Marc Jacobs had been really relaxed, his most recent one had people either rolling their eyes or staring in disbelief. First, the bitchy Kirsten Dunst and her BFF Sophia Coppola started eating before the party even began. Then, celebrities such as Elijah Wood and Winona Ryder were pushed and shoved while trying to enter the VIP area. Read more about it here.

Rachel Weisz

2008-09-10T06:47:00.000-07:00

Look at Rachel go!

Don't you just love stupid polls? "The Mummy" actress Rachel Weisz has been rated the number one woman lesbians would love to love! Way to go, Rachel! Crack open the champaign! Other celebrities who impress lesbians include Keira Knightley, Catherine Zeta Jones and the recent mom, Minnie Driver. For the details, click here.

Beyonce

2008-09-10T06:39:00.000-07:00

The new album

The new album by the famous albino Beyonce is set to drop on November 18. The follow up to "B-Day" will feature a duet with Justin Timberlake. However, before the album drops, you will be able to hear the first two singles, "If I Were a Boy" and "Single Ladies".

Minnie Driver

2008-09-09T04:46:00.000-07:00

Minnie Driver is a mom!

Minnie Driver delivers a baby boy! This is the first child for the 38-year-old actress, singer and songwriter. The baby's full name is Henry Story Driver. However, Minnie refuses to share the identity of the father, but she did say he was English and willing to participate in the upbringing of little Henry. More here.

Idina Menzel

2008-09-08T06:34:00.000-07:00

On tour!

The gem of Broadway, Idina Menzel, is going on a tour! She will be performing in American cities such as Cleveland, Toronto and Madison, but will also visit her fans in London, in order to promote her latest album, entitled "I Stand", while also performing her "Wicked" show-stopper "Defying Gravity". Dates can be found here, and here are all the tour details.

Britney Spears

2008-09-08T05:58:00.000-07:00

The female Jesus Christ

Britney Spears has been nicknamed the "female Jesus Christ" after she picked up three prestigious awards at the 2008 VMAs. It began with a pre-taped intro (check it out here) featuring Jonah Hill of "Superbad", after which Britney appeared on-stage, looking great in a Versaci dress. She thanked God, her family and fans and went on to receive three (!) "Moonman" statues. More about it here.

Kirsten Dunst

2008-09-07T06:38:00.000-07:00

How to alienate people

Actress Kirsten Dunst has been acting kind of bitchy lately. On the set of her upcoming film, "How To Lose Friends and Alienate People", she has reportedly acted as a drama princess, ultimately managing to ban the writer Toby Young from the set. Young, the author of the book the movie is based on, told the press he gave some advices to the producers on how Dunst's character should be interpreted, which the actress overheard and misunderstood as criticism. Jeez, someone needs to take a chill pill. Full story here.

Sting

2008-09-07T06:33:00.000-07:00

Sting is your Guitar Hero

The new face of the megahot "Guitar Hero" video game franchise is Sting! Sting has agreed to appear in the new edition of "Hero", entitled "Guitar Hero: World Tour". The game allows you to play as Sting or alongside him, record your jam sessions and go on tours together. More about it here.

Keri Hilson

2008-09-06T10:22:00.000-07:00

The "shitty" debut album

The successfull songwriter and occasional back-up singer is wrapping up her debut album. Hilson, who has written songs for the likes of Jesse McCartney, Usher, Ludacris, Mary J. Blige and Britney Spears, describes her Timbaland-produced album as a bit more r'n'b than one might expect. She also adds that what's missing most from today's popular music is realistic, emotional spin, or as she eloquently put it - "You don't have to walk around like your shit doesn't stink". Full story here.

Jermaine Dupri

2008-09-06T10:17:00.000-07:00

"Star-studded" party!

The potty-mouthed producer and sometimes-rapper Jermaine Dupri, has hosted one of the big pre-VMAs parties. He had described it as 'star-studded', only there weren't that many stars, and the few that were there, aren't that popular anyway - Taye Diggs, Fabulous, and that's about it. Irregardless, the party was reportedly a successful one. Full story here.

Britney Spears

2008-09-05T10:51:00.000-07:00

Shocking revelations (sort of)!

It looks like "tell-all" books are all the rage nowadays! After a pretty controversial book written on the subject of Madonna, here comes one about her "Me Against the Music" colleague. Lynne Spears has written an "evangelical book about parenthood". And I'm guessing Mrs. Spears didn't think it would sell enough copies if it didn't include juicy details concerning Britney's childhood. Turns out Britney started drinking alcohol at 13 and experimenting with drugs by the time she was 16! Also, she tricked Justin Timberlake about being a virgin, after she lost her virginity while still in high school! Want more? Click here.

Rufus Wainwright

2008-09-05T00:54:00.001-07:00

Premiering in the UK after all

Rufus Wainwright called off the premiere of his opera in New York. Why? The language of the libretto was in question! The pop singer's self-penned opera "Prima Donna" is already written in French, and it looks like he has changed his mind about translating it into any other language. More about "Prima Donna" here.

MTV Video Music Awards

2008-09-04T16:24:00.000-07:00

VMAs rumors!

In anticipation of one of MTV's biggest annual events, we provide you with gossip regarding the upcoming MTV Video Music Awards, popularly known as VMAs in a nutshell. First of all, disappointing news for fans of Britney Spears is that she will probably NOT perform as rumored (after causing quite a stir last year). She will appear though, but the star of the show will undoubtedly be Christina Aguilera, who will sing on television for the first time since she gave birth to her son in January. Other bands and artists involved are P!nk, Jonas Brothers, Kid Rock and T.I. The evening will be hosted by the British comedian Russel Brand. More details here.

Anthony Rapp

2008-09-04T09:19:00.000-07:00

One-man show

Anthony Rapp's new show is opening in Pittsburgh. The one-man show called "Without You" is based on his best-selling memoir of the same name, and features a live band. In the show, Anthony speaks about his "Rent" days, and sings both the songs from the groundbreaking musical, and his own. Full story here.

Anne Hathaway

2008-09-04T09:11:00.000-07:00

Oscar buzz!

Anne Hathaway generated a lot of nods at the Venice Festival with her latest film, "Rachel Getting Married" and is an early favorite for the Oscars. The movie was directed by Jonathan Demme, whose previous efforts include "Philadelphia" and "Silence of the Lambs." Hathaway admitted this character was much more mature and demanding to bring to life than her previous roles in movies such as "The Princess Diaries" and "The Devil Wears Prada." Read more about it here.

Christina Aguilera

2008-09-03T06:25:00.000-07:00

Christina smells good

Here's the ad for the new fragrance by Christina Aguilera, named "Inspire". I didn't quite like her previous, self-titled fragrance effort, but I must confess the advertisement for "Inspire" is beautiful. Clearly, she actually put some effort into it, unlike David and Victoria Beckham, whose advertisement for their new fragrance "Signature" is just plain stupid. Check out the ads below.

Madonna

2008-09-03T06:12:00.000-07:00

Sticky and cheap

The Queen of pop is threatened to be left alone on her "Sticky and Sweet" tour! Her crew is very dissatisfied with the amount of money invested in their hotel rooms and airplane seats. Turns out Madonna is enjoying all the luxurious perks her stardom can get her, paying no attention to how her crew is being treated. Now several of them are thinking to walk away if nothing improves. Full story here.

Usher

2008-09-02T22:50:00.000-07:00

Ladies only tour!

Usher plans to organize his upcoming "One Night Stand" tour as a series of "intimate" concerts attended by ladies only. Why? Because he feels it takes guts and real stardom to pull that off, and he seems to think highly of himself. Full story here.

Helen Mirren

2008-09-02T11:10:00.000-07:00

The Cocaine Queen

I know, right? Helen Mirren!? Sure! The 63-year-old actress is quoted saying that she experimented with pot and coke back in her partying days. AND, she also used to shoplift!Now, that's what I call juicy! Full story here.

Guy Ritchie

2008-08-31T13:11:00.000-07:00

"Till Death Do Us Part"...

...is a title of an old Madonna song, and it looks like she knew what she was singing about. After rumors spread about the celebrity couple's fights and the potential break-up, Guy Ritchie cleared the air by publicly saying he and Madonna will not renew their vows, as there is no need for that. He also spoke about the birthday party Madonna was given, which reportedly cost $200,000. More about this can be found here. Also, Guy Ritchie has been seen at the pub he owns, with *gasp*, his sons Rocco (8) and David (2). And although their nanny was present, this whole hoopla reeks of Jude Law.

Karl Lagerfeld

2008-08-31T09:00:00.000-07:00

Playing easy-to-get!

One of the most influential and important designers, Karl Lagerfeld, gets cuddly! A teddy-bear inspired by this fashionable big-shot will soon be released. Karl himself designed the toy, and the manufacturer Margarete Steiff is entrusted to produce the first couture teddy bear. To see the teddy-bear in question and read the whole story, click here.

David Duchovny

2008-08-29T08:10:00.000-07:00

The Sex-Files

David Duchovni, the star of such shows as "The X-Files" and "Californication" (currently airing on Showtime) has voluntarily signed up for a therapy in order to cure his sex addiction. He has issued a statement begging the media for privacy, while he and his wife (actress Tea Leoni) deal with this "issue". Whatever. I honestly believe there is no such thing as addiction to sex. It is more likely Leoni decided to lock her husband away while she's dealing with menopause. Full story here.

Lindsay Lohan

2008-08-28T13:37:00.001-07:00

Ronson drama!

Ooh, this is juicy! Seems like Michael Lohan, the estranged father of LiLo (yet very present in the media), who until yesterday applauded Lindsay's relationship with Samantha Ronson, has now very loudly criticized his daughter's taste in women. He has said naughty stuff about Ronson, like using Lindsay to become famous (probably true) and has even created a rumor that Ronson is writing a "tell-all" book about Lindsay and herself (definitely not true, who in the world would buy that?!). And now Ronson has published a very heated blog post on her MySpace page, where she claims she has no need to defend herself... Umm, why write a blog then? But I think the best reaction comes from Lindsay herself, who also blogged, but stayed true to the rules of showbiz - and managed to promote her song "Confessions of a Broken Heart" in her post. Kudos. To read a more detailed story, click here, and to read the blog posted by Ronson, click here.

t.A.T.u.

2008-08-28T05:15:00.000-07:00

t.A.T.u. are the new faces of Marc Jacobs

The controversial designer hired a controversial band to promote his new Autumn/Fall 2008. collection. The girls are controversial because they pretended to be underage lesbians some 10 years ago. He is controversial because he stuffed Victoria Beckham in a shopping bag last year. I can't wait! Full story here.

Nicolette Sheridan

2008-08-27T05:13:00.000-07:00

The wedding is off

The star of "Desperate Housewives", Nicolette Sheridan, broke up with her fiancé Michael Bolton on "amicable terms". Since they have been engaged since March 2006, I say we should have seen this coming. Nicolette seems to me very much like her "Desperate Housewives" character Edie Britt, so this comes as no surprise. Besides, if she indeed is anything like Edie, she'll be just fine. She is one tough cookie. Full story here.

Ellen Degeneres

2008-08-26T15:36:00.000-07:00

Back to Kodak!

The recently wedded comedian Ellen Degeneres is the last in the long line of ultra-celebrities who have been scheduled to appear at an event organized to raise awareness about cancer. Celebrities who are also slated to attend are Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Aniston, Kirsten Dunst, Meryl Streep, Christina Applegate, Charlize Theron, and many others. And if this reminded you of the Oscars, just wait until you find out the event is being held at the Kodak Theatre! Full story here.

Cher

2008-08-26T10:46:00.000-07:00

Cher to play "Catwoman"?!

Heath Ledger hasn't yet got an Oscar nomination, and the studio executives are already thinking about the next installment of the re-invented "Batman" series. And guess who they want to play the sexy, mysterious, (semi)femme-fatale Catwoman? Cher! Sure, she's won an Oscar, but she's 62 for crying out loud! And no, I also wouldn't want to bring back Halle Berry, but why not Michelle Pfeiffer? And more importantly, why Cher?! Full story here.

Brangelina

2008-08-26T03:57:00.000-07:00

Their children eligible for financial aid?

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's six children are eligible to receive $2,600 a month! It turns out the French have a very good social care system when it comes to things such as "nanny payment" and "orphan allowance". And the best part is - you get it regardless of your financial status! And since Brad registered their kids in France, the brats are eligible! Full story here.

Janice Dickinson

2008-08-26T03:51:00.000-07:00

Mrs. Competitive

I love this. Janice Dickinson appeared at some fashion event in order to promote the upcoming season of "Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency", and someone asked her about transsexuals (just in case you didn't know, transsexuals are all the rage in Hollywood these days). Janice replied that she already went tranny in her first season, and that it was quite expected Tyra Banks would knock her off at some point. I love Janice, she is such an inspiration. :)

Felicity Huffman

2008-08-25T12:29:00.000-07:00

A piece of Madonna

Wow, looks like the women of Wisteria Lane are really desperate to be in the news today! After the rather serious story on Teri Hatcher, comes a lighter one about her "Desperate Housewives" co-star, Felicity Huffman. Huffman has recently stated in the interview that she tried on Madonna's (used, I presume) underwear, while filling in for the Material Girl on Broadway. For the whole story, click here.

Teri Hatcher

2008-08-25T05:07:00.000-07:00

Hatcher's uncle dies in prison

Although this may sound like a plotline out of "Desperate Housewives", it's 100% true. Teri Hatcher, the star of one of the most popular shows on TV and many low-budget flops, was abused as a child by her uncle. This guy then went on to molest two other girls, until he was finally arrested and imprisoned for 14 years. Now that he is dead, Teri commented on the situation, adding she was abused when she was only five years old. Full story here.

Donald Trump

2008-08-25T05:02:00.000-07:00

He likes to move it, move it

The biggest social event of the past few weeks turned out to be a party thrown by Donald Trump in celebration of his new hotel opening in Dubai. Christina Aguilera was in charge of keeping people entertained. Among the many celebrities to attend, most spotted were Hilary Swank, Lucy Liu, Orlando Bloom and many others. For pics, click here.

Madonna

2008-08-24T03:37:00.000-07:00

Madonna kicks off "Sticky and Sweet" tour!

The Queen of Pop, who turned 50 a year ago, defied her age at the premiere of her "Sticky and Sweet Tour" in Cardiff last night. After approximately 653 hours of rehearsal time, she hopped and shook her booty to hits ranging from the classic "Like a Prayer" to the urban "Beat Goes On". Full story and pics here.

Daniel Radcliffe

2008-08-23T03:47:00.000-07:00

Dirty Harry

The controversial play "Equus", starring (naked) Daniel Radcliffe and "Harry Potter" co-star Richard Griffiths goes to Broadway! After successfully mooning England, "Equus" goes USA, and what better way to celebrate it, than be featured in "Vogue"? And Radcliffe apparently has no problems with shedding his clothes, so for a preview of the September issue, click here.

Gwen Stefani

2008-08-23T03:25:00.000-07:00

2008-08-11T02:06:00.000-07:00

The first single is called "Spotlight" and it's a nice little soulful r'n'b song. Check out the video here and click here to find out more about the album, what Hudson thinks of it and why she refused to drink coffee and be cranky during the video shoot.

Fergie

2008-08-10T06:57:00.000-07:00

Fergie likes to role play!

Fergie cares a lot about her fiance, and reportedly doesn't mind slipping in a silly costume for the sake of keeping their bedroom hot. She's been a nurse, a dominatrix and a French maid. Soon, she will also be a prostitute in the star-studded film adaptation of "Nine". Full story here.

Matthew McConaughey

2008-08-09T10:10:00.000-07:00

Organic fertilizing

Matthew McConaughey, the over-hyped actor who starred in "Sahara" (I can't remember any other movie) turns out to be crazy, too. See, he decided to plant his newborn sons placenta in his orchard. And no, this isn't just gossip, it's something he said in an interview. He says he hopes it will fertilize the land. More on this b/s here.

Beyonce

2008-08-07T15:53:00.000-07:00

Beyonce is white.

This is hilarious. In the new L'Oreal ad campaign, Beyonce looks white! Of course, as soon as the commercial and the above pic leaked online, L'Oreal's PR denied that any Photoshop work had been done. I'm not buying it. And I also don't get why in the world would they airbrush Beyonce to look white, when women everywhere spend mucho moola on cosmetics in order to look darker! L'Oreal is obviously rasist. Either that, or Beyonce is becoming an albino.

Paris Hilton

2008-08-07T05:13:00.000-07:00

Vote 4 Paris!

The one and only Paris Hilton, who was recently spoofed in the latest McCain ad, decided to fight back! So Ms. Hilton made one hilarious video, once again proving that blonds always win! Check out the video below and make sure you tell me what you think!

Britney Spears

2008-08-07T04:58:00.000-07:00

Britney Spears to star in the new Tarantino movie!

The pop-princess is reportedly being cast in Tarantino's remake of "Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" as a stripper! Tarantino says he is sure that she will be great in the roll (?) and she says it could really turn her career around. I'm thinking "Crossroads" meets "Death Proof" would be brilliant! Full story here.

Sarah Jessica Parker

2008-08-06T08:21:00.000-07:00

East Village New Yorkers

Paris Hilton

2008-08-02T11:39:00.000-07:00

Hilton vs. McCain

The 27-year-old socialite, actress, singer and what-not is not too happy about the McCain commercial featuring herself and Britney Spears. In the commercial, Barrack Obama is compared to them in terms of stardom, as if he is only a celebrity face and unable to be president. While Britney Spears has basically ignored the whole thing, Paris cares about politics (!) and would prefer to be left out of it. Check out the video below. Full story here.

Helen Mirren

2008-08-01T13:23:00.000-07:00

The Queen's Abs

Dame Helen Mirren has recently shocked the world when paparazzi shots of this 63-year-old actress surfaced on the internet.

Keira Knightley

2008-08-01T06:47:00.000-07:00

Keira Knightley doesn't want her breasts airbrushed

Keira Knightley is desperately trying to stop the studio executives from enhancing her boobs for display on the promotional material for her upcoming movie "The Duchess". She has already been through all this with "King Arthur". However, I can't help but wonder - is it really necessary? I can only think of two more examples for this - Angelina Jolie for "Tomb Raider" (utterly unnecessary) and Emma Watson for "Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix" (creepy). Does that actually help the movie earn more!? Full story here.

Anne Hathaway

2008-07-31T11:47:00.000-07:00

The Princess Diaries

Anne Hathaway's diaries were confiscated by the FBI a few days ago, after her ex-boyfriend Raffaelo Follieri was arrested for real-estate scams.
