Who Knew Nicole Richie Could Rap?!

We know that these days Nicole Richie is a full-time mum come-jewellery designer but having seen this video of the former reality star showing off her rapping skills on Ellen DeGeneres’ chatshow, we think Nicole should probably quit all that jazz, find the nearest recording studio and should then promptly lay down some beats (that’s right, we’re down with the lingo) with the likes of Snoop Dogg et al.

That girl got some serious skillz…

Kate Gosselin Switching Up Her Hair Again

March 11th, 2010


As she readies for her debut on Dancing With the Stars, Kate Gosselin has a big decision to make. No, not whether to hire Stephanie Santoro to watch the kids.

Stylist Ted Gibson is giving her hair a new look ... but what kind?

Rumor has it that when Kate hits up the salon today, she’ll be back to her famous short 'do. But only on a temporary basis while her new longer hair is readied.

“She’ll have a new hairdo tomorrow because we’re taking out [her hair extensions] and we’re not putting them back in until Thursday," Gibson dished recently.

“We’re actually doing three different shades, a caramel, a beige blond and a bit of a lighter blonde ... The extensions will last the whole time she’s on the show.”

What do you think? Good move? What hairstyle should she wear on DWTS? Take a look at some recent Kate Gosselin pictures and vote in our survey below ...

Fashion Face-Off: Courteney Cox Arquette vs. Mezhgan Hussainy

Katie Holmes: Held Against Her Will!

March 11th, 2010


It's been awhile, but Star, In Touch, OK! and their ilk decided to give Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie the week off as the subject of myriad ridiculous tabloid covers.

Taking Brangelina's place in the first of the aforementioned celebrity gossip rags? A rare TomKat sighting! It's like some editor just remembered that they exist!

We haven't seen a good story about Katie Holmes being trapped in Tom Cruise's evil clutches in forever (well, December), but this one makes up for lost time!

In addition to insinuating that Tom got her pregnant with baby #2 (which he is supposedly willing to give her $75 million for), Star says that Katie Holmes:

  • Is getting "prenatal Scientology lessons (whatever that consists of)
  • Is going through "agonizing" detox (of what, who the frick knows)
  • Is having her "leash tightened" (yes, they just likened her to a dog)

Tighten That Leash

PRISON WITHOUT BARS: For Katie Holmes, there is no escape.

For someone supposedly under intense mind control and chained in Tom Cruise's torture dungeon, Katie seems awfully content, albeit a little frumpy lately.

Katie and Tom first got together in 2005. Suri Cruise is thriving and cute. Everyone seems status quo and happy. Could it be that TomKat isn't that abnormal?

That, or the perks of being married to Tom must be really good.

Poor Kate Moss has a tough life, she really does. Having arrived in Paris a few days ago, hard-done by Kate has had to go to one catwalk show after another looking completely fabulous and amazingly turned out.

As if that wasn’t bad enough, Mossy has also had to stay in a top hotel while in the French capital. So, having gone through that ordeal its not surprising that Kate Moss looked completely miserable as she went on one last shopping trip around Paris earlier today before then heading home to her north London pad.

Marie Osmond Dedicates Return Vegas Show to Late Son

March 11th, 2010


Following the tragic death of her son, Marie Osmond returned to the Las Vegas stage, alongside brother Donny, last night.

The siblings performed for a sold-out crowd, as Marie dedicated the concert to her late child, saying:

"The way Osmonds survive is we keep singing. That's what we want to do tonight. I know my son would want that and this show is for him."

The crowd stood and cheered Marie throughout the 90-minute event, growing especially supportive when Donny said: "I think we need to give a big round of applause for my sister for even coming on stage."

Donny and Marie

This performance came just days after Rosebanne Barr actually called Marie out for playing a role in Michael's suicide. The washed-up comedian said Osmond should have chosen her son over her supposedly gay-bashing religion.

Despite this controversy and despite their grief, the Osmonds had fun on stage.

Marie joked about about her brother's dancing skills, to which Donny replied that he won Dancing With the Stars. But he didn't do that in heels, Marie pointed out, as she exceled at on the ABC show.

As one could only expect, it was an emotional night. Marie wiped away tears when finishing the evening's final number, "It Takes Two."

Lindsay Lohan’s Mother Supports Her Daughter’s Lawsuit – WHY?!

March 11th, 2010
[Images: Mr Paparazzi/Big Pictures Words: Samuel Nathan]

Unlike every other sane individual in the universe, Lindsay Lohan’s mother Dina is totally behind her daughter’s multi-million legal battle against an ad firm.

The Mean Girls actress is seeking £67million worth of damages from a company who made an advert which features a “milkaholic” baby called Lindsay, as she thinks the commercial is taking a swipe at her.

The firm behind the television add claim that Lindsay is simply a common name they chose to use, but Dina doesn’t seem to buy that completely legitimate and totally likely excuse.

She says Lindsay rang her after seeing the commercial, which was aired during the SuperBowl, in an “extremely upset” state. According to Dina, LiLo said:

“Mommy, help me. This is wrong. How can they do this?’”

Much like her deluded offspring, Dina thinks that the commercial clearly intended to take the p*** out of her daughter, because according to her Lindsay is as much a recogisable celebrity name as Cher, Madonna, or even Oprah. She said:

“They’re little babies doing this, mocking another child who’s just trying to survive Hollywood, basically. I’m just basically glad I took a stand. I’m not going to let them do this to us anymore. Everyone knows Lindsay, like Cher or Madonna.”

Somebody tell us she’s joking right? *Silence* What you mean she’s being serious?! Oh dear god…

Now, the first trailer for Eclipse has been unveiled, delivering a much-desired first look at what's in store for everyone's favorite supernatural couple.

In the 10-second preview below, Edward warns Bella about the choice she's about to make, while Jacob says he'll always fight for her. It's great stuff.

Rozlyn Papa Sex Tape Totally Not Even Her

March 11th, 2010


Rozlyn Papa may like to get down and dirty with producers on The Bachelor, but it doesn't look like she stars in any adult films, professional or amateur.

The alleged Rozlyn Papa sex tape that went live yesterday  may look like her, but the blonde shown "is clearly not her," her rep, Stacie Vanchieri, says.

"I've seen the tape," she continues. "Anyone who has met her once would know it's not her. The woman has a different body, hands, face, everything."

Anyone who has had Rozlyn affixed to ... never mind.

Not that anyone on the staff at THG watched it, but the chick looks far more flat chested than the voluptuous, exiled, wannabe Jake Pavelka trophy wife.

Booted Bachelorette

Rozlyn Papa can be called many things. A sex tape star? Not one of them.

"The woman looks directly into the camera; it's definitely not Rozlyn," Vanchieri adds. "The tape looks like it was done as porn to be sold, not a private moment captured on tape ... It so clearly seems someone is trying to ruin her."

Ridiculous as it sounds that somebody would try to "ruin" Rozlyn Freaking Papa of all people, someone is at least trying to cash in on her name. It's unlikely the site posting the alleged tape of her, pornhub.com, made an honest mistake.

After all, Papa's lawyer claims he has ID'd the clip as a scene from the 2004 classic Pole Position: Lex POV, directed by renowned star Lexington Steele.

We don't know what's funnier:

  • That a movie is called Pole Position
  • That someone tried to pass off a clip as Rozlyn Papa
  • That her lawyer billed $250 an hour to research porn

A massive media scrum greeted Katie Price as she arrived back in the UK earlier today, following her brief trip to LA where she attended Elton John’s post-Oscars party (where she possibly/maybe made up with Victoria Beckham).

Meanwhile news has emerged today that Katie has singed a million pound contract with ITV2 to do another series of her reality show What Katie Did Next.

Apparently Jordan has agreed to a deal which will see her getting £100,000 per episode, along with a £200,000 'golden handcuff' lump sum  - which will secure her stay at ITV2.

Katie’s ex-husband Peter Andre will also be doing another series of his reality show (which starts in May) on ITV2; the singer has just negotiated a £105,000 per episode deal for his show, however sources claim that TV bosses were less bothered about keeping Pete’s programme as it has doesn't have as much “pulling power” as Jordan's.

80’s teen movie star Corey Haim has been found dead in his Hollywood apartment this morning after taking a suspected overdose.

The 38-year-old actor – who was once romantically linked to Victoria Beckham – has publicly battled with an addiction to drugs for years; in 2007 he admitted that he took up to 85 Valium a day at the height of his habit.

Haim, a long-time friend of Michael Jackson, was made famous for his roles in such 80’s classic films as The Lost Boys and License to Drive.

Corey Haim Found Dead; Drug Overdose Suspected

March 11th, 2010


Actor Corey Haim has been found dead in Los Angeles. He was 38.

The LAPD said that the troubled former child star's death appeared to be the result of an accidental drug overdose, and an investigation is currently underway.

Haim is best known for '80s films License To Drive and The Lost Boys. Haim and actor Corey Feldman starred in License To Drive and Dream a Little Dream.

Sadly, Haim's drug abuse took over his life and helped ruin his once-promising career. He attempted a 2006 comeback with the reality show The Two Coreys

R.I.P. Corey Haim (1971-2010).

The successful show, again pairing him with his namesake, lasted two seasons, but Corey Feldman refused to do a third because of Haim's continued drug use.

Khloe, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian Shill for Skin Care System

March 10th, 2010


Is there anything the Kardashian sisters won't shill for?

Most notorious for backing a dangerous weight loss system that is not approved by the FDA, the siblings have now signed on to represent PerfectSkin, a new beauty product.

While the skin care line hasn't launched yet, Dr. Ron DiSalvo says Khloe, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian are the ideal spokeswomen for it because their lack of talent leaves them open to any sales pitch:

"As women who are constantly in the spotlight and juggling hectic schedules, the Kardashian sisters need a skin care system that's as simple as it is effective."

Total Shills

Kim, of course, is already extolling the virtues of a system that isn't even on the market yet.

"I have literally tried everything out there and nothing even comes close to PerfectSkin, " she said. "It's easier and more effective than anything else I've tried, and they are the only skin care products I use."

PerfectSkin will launch this spring and, truth be told, it's not really that poor of a choice for the sisters. But our original question still remains: Do you think there's any product they would not shill for?

Phew: Jessica Simpson Has No Trust Issues

March 10th, 2010


Thank goodness.

Despite John Mayer's recent comments, in which he spoke in no uncertain terms about boning Jessica Simpson, she says she's still a trusting person deep down.

"I'm not as guarded as you would think. I should probably be more guarded. I trust a lot of people, actually," the actress told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show.

Not that she's over being disappointed in John, who has apologized for calling her "sexual napalm" and "crack cocaine," and whose apology she did not accept.

"That's truly how I felt and still feel," she said. "Somebody that you have cared about for a long time, you just hope they can keep the intimate things intimate."

Sexual Napalm

LIKE CRACK: We hear that describes her in bed. Someone said that ...

In all honesty, as much as we think John Mayer is a pretentious a$$clown who needs to go the hell away, does Jessica really have to keep harping on this issue?

  • How "betrayed" can you be? You dated a guy, he bragged about it later. That makes him a jackass, absolutely, but it's not like he boned CaCee Cobb.
  • He said she was amazing in bed! Again, he's an idiotic douchebag, but at the crux of Mayer's Playboy interview was praise for Simpson's sex moves.

After taking John to task, she spoke warmly of Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan, who worked with her on the theme for her show The Price of Beauty.

"I can't find good enough words to speak about Billy," Simpson said. "He's a very, very dear friend. For him to give his time and his talents and share them with me, it was a great experience. And I hope we can do more music together."

Sexual Napalm denies making anything more than music with him, though.

Robert Halderman to Plead Guilty in David Letterman Extortion Plot, Serve Six Months

March 10th, 2010


Emmy-winning CBS News producer Robert 'Joe' Halderman pleaded guilty to shaking down David Letterman as payback for the host's affair with his girlfriend.

Today, Halderman admitted giving Dave a "screenplay treatment" that was "a thinly veiled threat to ruin Mr. Letterman if he did not pay me a lot of money."

In exchange for the guilty plea, the extortion plotter will receive a six-month prison sentence, 4 1/2 years probation and 1,000 hours of community service.

Outside court, he expressed his remorse for the sordid episode.

"I apologize to Mr. Letterman, to his family, to (girlfriend) Stephanie Birkitt and her family, and my family and friends," said Halderman in a brief statement.

The plea came five months after Halderman threatened to expose Letterman's affairs with several female staffers, including the blackmailer's ex, Birkitt.

A David Letterman PicRobert

David Letterman and his blackmailer, Robert "Joe" Halderman.

Letterman released a statement thanking city police and prosecutors for their help in resolving the bizarre case that exposed his fondness for staffers.

"I had complete faith that a just and appropriate result was inevitable," Letterman said. "On behalf of my family, I am extremely grateful for their efforts."

Halderman would have faced up to 15 years behind bars if he had been convicted of a bizarre blackmail scheme involving the long-time Late Show host.

David Letterman's affair with Halderman's girlfriend, Stephanie Birkitt, ended shortly before his blackmail bid, but also predated her living with Halderman.

Halderman was arrested after Letterman - in a stunning admission on air - admitted cheating on wife Regina Lasko and detailed the blackmail attempt.

Halderman actually collected a $2 million check from Letterman as part of a sting operation started after the host went to police about the shakedown.

He was busted after depositing the check in his Connecticut bank.

Emma Watson: Brown Babe

March 10th, 2010

The Dark Side of Katherine Heigl

March 10th, 2010


Controversial, frequently absent Grey's Anatomy cast member Katherine Heigl may be returning  to the halls of Seattle Grace Hospital, but she won’t be doing it as a blonde!

The actress stepped out for lunch yesterday in L.A. as a brunette, and while Katherine has become one of Hollywood’s most noteworthy blondes, the dark 'do does the job.

It may not be her signature look, but we like the length as well, and sometimes, a little change is good. We just wonder if Izzie Stevens will now become brunette, too.

Which hair color do you like best on Katherine? Vote below ...

David Archuleta is Rooting for Andrew Garcia

March 10th, 2010


He may be releasing a book and working on a new album, but David Archuleta still has time to watch American Idol.

Asked by The Los Angeles Times about the new crop of contestants, the season seven runner-up said:

“I think they’re really talented. They show a lot of their own personalities, and I liked that about them. And there’s some really good singers, too. Like Andrew Garcia, I like the character that he’s shown. I feel like there’s a lot of pressure for them because people are now expecting them to change up the songs, and they’re not sure exactly what to be showing people.

"It’s matter of balance - changing the song enough to show who you are but still preserving the song for what made it magical.”

D. Arch

As for his upcoming CD?

“I’ve been working on it since January, but I had my first writing sessions in the summer, and I went to Nashville to write in October. Then the Christmas album came out and sort of took over, but I go back to Nashville this week. I just want it to sound more like me.

"I want people to say, ‘This is David talking.’ Instead of just interpreting - and I’m sure there will be songs like that - I want to focus on showing people who I am, what my personality is like and hoping that I leave an impression on people."

He's already left an impression on many people. Years after he exited the Idol stage, David remains one of the show's most popular alums.
