Myleene Klass always tunes into The X Factor

Myleene Klass wants Cher Lloyd to win The X Factor.
The former Hear'Say star likes that the singer - who is being mentored by Girls Aloud's Cheryl Cole - brings something different to the show with her rapping.
'I thought Cher did a really good job [last Saturday],' says Myleene, 32.

'There was something really new about her - she's really current.
'When I'm watching I try to imagine that I'm listening to the song on the radio and think whether I would buy it.'
Myleene is also a fan of the groups.
'I think Belle Amie are brilliant,' she tells The Sun. 'And I want to mother One

Kerry Katona loves watching Strictly Come Dancing

Kerry Katona reckons Kara Tointon could be this year's Strictly Come Dancing champion.
The reality star has been blown away by the former EastEnders actress' routines with partner Artem Chigvintsev.

‘Kara Tointon could win,' says Kerry, 30. 'I think she's amazing.'

Kerry is also a big fan of Patsy Kensit.
‘I've never met her but I always remember her from Lethal Weapon 2 and she's so cool,' she adds.
‘It's just a shame she's so unlucky in love with all her husbands.'

Patsy, 42, ended her fourth marriage to DJ Jeremy Healy in February.

Cheryl Cole: If they can get past my accent, I'd do US X Factor

Cheryl Cole is rumoured to be dating dancer Derek Hough

Cheryl Cole hopes her Newcastle accent won't affect her chances of getting a job on the US X Factor.
Simon Cowell is launching the hit show in the States in autumn 2011 and is interested in having the Girls Aloud star join him on the panel.
'It would be a fantastic opportunity if they can get past my accent,' says Cheryl, 27.
'If they think I am the person for the job, then watch this space.'
Simon, 51, says he'll base his decision about hiring Cheryl on her performance on the UK version of The X Factor rather than her drawl.  
'I think there is this fallacy that Americans can't understand accents,' he tells Metro. 'They can...
'I've told Cheryl she needs to concentrate on this show first.' 

X Factor finalists releasing David Bowie song Heroes for charity

The X Factor contestants raising money for Help For Heroes

Cher Lloyd will feature on the cover version of David Bowie's Heroes

The X Factor finalists are to record a cover of David Bowie's classic song Heroes for charity.
The 16 acts - including Cher Lloyd - will release the track on 7 November.
All money raised will go to Help For Heroes to help pay for recovery centres for wounded soldiers.
In 2008, The X Factor finalists covered Mariah Carey's Hero for the charity.
It raised £1.3million for a rehabilitation complex in Headley Court.
David, 63, first released Heroes in 1977, when it reach No 24 in the charts.

Cheryl Cole: I felt awful about not putting Gamu through on The X Factor

Cheryl hasn't spoken to the singer since

Gamu Nhengu didn't make Cheryl Cole's top 3 on The X Factor

Cheryl Cole has revealed that she didn't pick Gamu Nhengu for her top three on The X Factor because she just couldn't see that special spark in the teenager.
Having missed a lot of the auditions and the Boot Camp stage of the competition, Cheryl had to judge Gamu's performance afresh.
'All I had was the tape and girl that was in front of us
there and then,' she explains.



'I'm looking for a twinkle in their eye and an instinct I feel - I thought I made the right decision.'
After Gamu's fans turned on the Girls Aloud star - and some accused her of racism - she was astonished. 
'Saying I was racist is ridiculous, things have become so stupid,' Cheryl, 27, insists in Piers Morgan's Life Stories on ITV1.
'But I felt awful. I haven't spoken to her since, I can't, I don't know what to say. "I'm sorry that your life is upside down?"'
After her elimation, 18-yearr-old Gamu claimed The X Factor had ruined her life.
Her family face deportation back to Zimbabwe after mum Nokuthula Ngazana's application to extend her working visa was rejected.
The Home Office application is reported to have been turned down because Nokuthula allegedly received benefits she was not entitled to as an immigrant.
Lawyers for the family - who've been living in Clackmannanshire, Scotland, for 8 years - are now seeking a judicial review from the Court Of Session in Edinburgh to overturn the ruling.

The 20 Sexiest Celebrity Halloween Costumes Of All Time

It’s that time of year again: when women of all ages dress up in as little clothes possible, paint some whiskers on their face and call their costume a “sexy cat.” While we’ve participated in our share of “Slutoweens” (dare we confess: we dressed as an actual prostitute for Halloween in 7th grade), celebrities just seem to nail the sexy-spooky look better than we normals ever could. Sure, we’ve tried to pull of the skanky mermaid costume for years now. But Mariah Carey will always do it better, you know?
Mimi, Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, CoCo, Selita Ebanks, Ashley Greene - all these ladies have sexed  it up on October 31st, but only one can be awarded the crown for Sexiest Halloween Costume of All Time. We pick a winner below!

Lady Gaga Ingests Her Meat Dress, Ditches Bony Look

Do you hear that? It’s our sigh of relief! Less than a year ago, Lady Gaga was having a difficult time keeping her uber skinny and slightly scary thin body conscious on stage. We worried for months that her insanely busy schedule was running our momma monster down and wished she would take the time out to care for her body. We hoped that she’d take a bite or two out of the meat she was busy draping on herself and give her pop star body the protein fuel it desperately needed.
Thankfully she heard our cries of worry! Lady Gaga flaunted a much healthier and more curvaceous physique over the weekend on stage in Norway. She rocked a fuller frame that included plenty of sexy cleavage. Three cheers for real Gaga meat! [Photo: Getty Images, Left: October 2010 Right: May 2010]

30 Kim Kardashian Booty Pics For Her 30th Birthday

Hello birthday, goodbye birthday suit. The lovely Kim Kardashian turns 30 today, which marks her official retirement from posing nude. We hope the publishers of Playboy present her with a golden g-string and a certificate of appreciation before they kiss her ass goodbye.
Entering a new decade is a big deal,  so as a special FABlife tribute we’ve decided to take a look back (pun rim shot) with the thirty hottest pics of the world’s most famous birthday booty. Relive the memories again and again in this rear retrospective. You’ll smile at the good times, and you’ll cry because you’ll never see that bare behind again. Unless you, you know, have access to the internet.

Kat Von D Threatens To Sue Her Producers In Order To Protect Nikki Sixx’s Precious Feelings

Roll out the sterile gauze and get those antibiotics ready! Apparently Nikki Sixx and Kat Von D are slobbering all over each others’ tattoos again, and Kat’s so afraid of hurting her boo’s little baby bunny feelings that she has threatened to sue her show’s own producers if they showed footage of her insulting him. Because she was riding high on boner fumes during her brief but disgusting tryst with Jesse James (and because she is a paragon of elegance and poise) Kat took it upon herself to rip Nikki a new one while the cameras were rolling for her TLC show “Ink”. After abandoning Sandra Bullock’s sloppy seconds, Von D reportedly “freaked out” at the possibility that beloved would hear her smack-talking him on any upcoming episodes…and do what? Cry into his black velvet pillows? Write about it in his emotions journal? CALL HIS MOM?
Von D demanded any potentially offensive moments be edited out of the series, as well rejected a “Jesse vs. Nikki” plot line that seems designed to induce vomiting spice up the series. Wow, whatever Kat said must have been harsh if she thought Nikki would care that much. That or the man bruises like a peach…emotionally. We’ll probably have to wait for the DVD to see what she really had to say. Or we’ll just wait until they break-up again. Next week. [Photo: Getty Images]

Hilary Duff’s Tooth Done Fall Out At Her Wedding

We’ve all heard wedding horror stories of drunk relatives and freak thunderstorms, but the most gag-inducing tale we’ve come across has to be when Hilary Duff lost a tooth on her wedding day. Note: we use the term “tooth” loosely, as Hil famously replaced her choppers with boogie-board sized veneers a few years ago. As Duff explained to Ellen on this coming Monday’s episode, “I bit into a bagel. I was sitting on the bed with my mom and my sister, and they’re like, ‘You’re an idiot. You did not. Come on.’” O my god! That’s disgusting! Hilary Duff eats carbs? Once Duff realized that her toof had declined to attend her nuptials, “I burst into tears. Then I started laughing at myself, and then I really burst into tears.” Which is funny because that’s exactly what we did when we read this story!
Exclaimed Duff, “Thank God I didn’t swallow [my tooth]. Not good for a bride on her wedding day.” Yeah, that has to be some sort of seriously bad omen. No one wants something old, something new, something borrow, and something that has fallen out of a body cavity and into your breakfast sandwich. Luckily, a friend of Hilary’s wedding planner’s sister’s husband was able to glue the sucker back into place, and the rest of her wedding to hockey player Mike Comrie went beautifully. In retrospect, a gap-tooth bride might have been a good test of the relationship. If you have to take your vows looking like a jack o’ lantern, and your man doesn’t sprint out of the chapel screaming? That’s a keeper, ladies. [Photo: Film Magic]

Taylor Swift’s 25 Hottest Outfits Ever

Say what you will about Taylor Swift and her taste in men, but the girl has impeccable style. What we wouldn’t give to be locked in her closet for a weekend (we’d give an arm, not a leg). Even when she’s rollin’ casual style, she always looks great. And on the red carpet, she slays, she sparkles and she works red lipstick like no other.
We’ve got Taylor’s 25 Hottest Outfits Ever for your gawking eyes below; and be sure to watch a live stream of Taylor performing songs off her album Speak Now on Monday, October 25th at 7PM EST on VH1.com.

Christina Aguilera’s Split Lip Not A Result Of Domestic Violence

Well that’s certainly a relief. Despite reports implying that Christina Aguilera was abused by husband Jordan Bratman, it now appears that the split lip has nothing to do split up. It looks like the singer really did just take a tumble.
Days before their separation was announced, Christina was treated at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for a bloody lip. Bratman told the staff that she had simply fallen down, yet rumors began to fly speculating that she received her injuries in a final blowout that ended their marriage. But according to TMZ, friends of the couple insist that she sustained her cuts and bruses as the result of “a simple fall. It’s as innocent as that.”
Obviously divorce is never a nice thing, particularly when there are children involved. But at least all of this nasty stuff proved to be false.

Lindsay Lohan Avoids Jail, Gets More Rehab

Lindsay Lohan has been sentenced back to rehab until January 3rd 2011 at the earliest. Judge Elden Fox has also ordered her to receive drug testings between her release from rehab and her next court date set for February 25th. We’d say got off pretty easy, considering the D.A. was aiming to put Lindsay behind bars for 180 days. She also gets her SCRAM anklet removed this afternoon
This latest appearance is court comes as a result of her violating probation by failing two drug tests in September. Despite Michael Lohan’s assault last night, he was on hand to witness the sentencing, as was ex-wife Dina. Lindsay was understandably emotional as she read aloud a handwritten letter to the court, and by the end of the hearing she could only offer a tearful “thank you” to Judge Fox.
Although the choice between jail and rehab can’t be that difficult, we’re hoping that Lindsay’s desire to return to the Betty Ford Clinic shows that she really wants to change. We’re glad she’s going to a place where she can get the treatment she needs to heal.

Beyonce And Jay-Z’s 20 Cutest Moments Ever

We’re still holding on to hopes that Beyonce is pregnant, but after her mom Tina Knowles denied the pregnancy rumor, it might be time for us to let go of our dream of seeing Jay-Z carrying a toddler on his shoulders around NYC. Regardless, we can still celebrate one of the world’s cutest couples with 20 photos of their most adorable moments together.
As a bonus, our friends at Moonit have got the couple’s astrological compatibility on lock. Here is what they reveal about Beyonce and Jay-Z’s astro-connection:

According to their birth dates, it’s no surprise that Beyonce (born on September 4, 1981) and Jay-Z (born on December 4, 1969) gravitated towards each other. When it comes to the two of them, “there’s a larger-than-life force drawing him to her, telling him to be around her as much as possible if he wants to grow and achieve his true potential.”
With that it mind, it totally makes sense that these two are “really well suited to assume the role of leader versus follower” (so I guess we know who wears the pants in that relationship).
It’s also no surprise that, wherever they go together, “they’re the ‘it’ couple.” They “entertain the people who matter, they’re effortlessly ‘on’ all the time, and they’re confident and comfortable in any situation.” From their “perfectly timed snuggling” to their “witty repartee” to their “meticulously appointed house,” it’s like “everyone around them wants to emulate their perfect relationship.”

Taylor Momsen’s Boob Flash Fails To Shock Us

Today in your Very Important News Update: Taylor Momsen flashed her boobs in concert last night! Also: Taylor Momsen masturbates! Taylor Momsen has a vibrator! Taylor Momsen watches sex tapes!
The Most Desperate Attention-Seeking Teen In The World is doing everything she can to get you to notice her. Notice her, god damn it! Last night, at a concert at Don Hill’s in NYC sponsored by Paper magazine, Taylor performed with her band The Pretty Reckless and flashed her breasts at the audience during a song (there’s edited video of the NSFW lameness below). As if that wasn’t enough desperation, there’s a new article out in which Taylor talks to Revolver magazine and makes sure to say the word “clit” in between talking about masturbating with her vibrator. You want direct quotes? Here’s a sample!

• “Hey, I’ve never said I don’t need to get off once and a while, man. That [vibrator] fits right in my suitcase.”
• “We’re born with clits in our fingers.” (in reference to masturbation, not a science experiment gone wrong…or right.)
• “If it’s a good sex tape, I’ll watch it.”
• “I smoke a lot.”

Congrats Taylor! You are just like every other 17-year-old in the world, hungry for attention and doing your best to get it. You know what would really shock us? If you shut up for once. There’s nothing crazy about walking into a store and buying a vibrator. It’s not like you harvested it in a garden or created it out of found items in a dumpster. Now THAT would be worth telling the world about. More from our Teen Queen of Crazy Talk, below.

Liam Neeson Replaces Mel Gibson In The Hangover 2, Should Sleep With One Eye Open

Liam Neeson better get fitted for a mouth guard and stay away from any and all hot tubs in the near future, because apparently Neeson is replacing Mel Gibson in The Hangover 2. The actor’s rep confirmed, “It’s true pending clearance of cast and crew background check,” which will hopefully weed out the strange new P.A. who looks  lot like Mel in blond wig and heels. Liam seems thrilled about the casting choice, gushing, “I just got a call to do a one-day shoot on Hangover 2 as a tattooist in Thailand, and that’s all I know about it. I just laughed my leg off when I saw The Hangover, I was shooting in Berlin earlier this year and rented it on the hotel TV.”  First you laugh your leg off, and then Mel Gibson chews it off after he sneaks into your trailer. Either way, it’s a movie you’ll never forget!
An insider working on The Hangover 2 reportedly confirmed that it was Mel’s currently reputation (i.e. demonic possession) that got him dropped from the film, revealing, “They don’t want him to be in the movie and serve as a platform for some creepy comeback. They didn’t want that energy or to shoulder what would come with having him apart of the film.” We are only half joking when say this switcheroo is the thing that will finally send Gibson over to the dark side. We mean, Mel Gibson charged a baby rent; you seriously think he will take this slight lying down? [Photos: Splash News Online]

Dress or Body Paint? You Decide

Kanye West pretty much had the best night ever. First he pregamed by sailing around the Hudson River on a yacht for Kim Kardashian’s intimate 30th birthday bash. Now, that would easily be enough to make our top ten dream evenings, even with the lack of a million-dollar cake. But this is Kanye we’re taking about and he’s just getting warm.
The rapper then wheeled downtown for the premiere of his directorial debut Runaway, which stars Selita Ebanks, the glorious Victoria’s Secret angel he is supposedly boning. Oh yeah, and she was wearing a dress that was clearly painted on her body. Congrats Kanye, you’ve just won at life.
But maybe it’s not so simple. Rumors have been swirling that Kim and Kanye have been making “Kimye” in their spare moments (even we don’t know what that means). Plus he and Selita seemed distant at the premiere, where they came and went separately and were rarely seen together. Trouble in paradise?  Was this amazing dress a giant “F.U.” to Kanye? We don’t care, as long as we get to see pictures of it.

Celine Dion Welcomes Twin Boys

Canadian born singer Celine Dion gave birth to twin boys on Saturday morning in Florida, as confirmed to OK! by her rep.

“Celine is resting now and they plan to discuss what to name the boys when she wakes up,” a rep for the singer tells E! Online of her healthy babies.

Matt & Luciana Damon Welcome Another Baby Girl to the Family

Matt Damon and wife Luciana, 35, welcomed another healthy baby girl to the family on Wednesday in New York.
The 40-year-old’s rep tells ok!, “I can confirm that Matt and Luciana Damon’s daughter Stella Zavala Damon was born on Wednesday, October 20. Everyone is great.”

Asides from newborn Stella, Matt and Luciana have three other daughters: Gia, Isabella, and Alexia, who is from the mom-of-four’s first marriage.

Congratulations!

Katy Perry “OK” With Friend Rihanna Missing Her Nuptials in India

Although Rihanna was a part of friend Katy Perry’s Las Vegas bachelorette party a few weeks ago, the “Umbrella” singer couldn’t make it out to India this weekend for the actual wedding.
A pal tells OK! of Rihanna’s absence, “Katy said she was ok with it, but she was a little hurt. She really wanted her there.”

According to TMZ, Katy even booked Rihanna her own room at the hotel, but wasn’t too upset when the pop star couldn’t make it into town.
Rihanna allegedly was caught up in the studio working.

Katy Perry and Russell Brand were married in a traditional Hindu ceremony on Oct. 23.

Cameron Diaz & Joanna Garcia Party With ‘Glee’ Star Matthew Morrison

Cameron Diaz and Joanna Garcia partied the night away with Glee’s Matthew Morrison at the One Year Anniversary of Jason Scoppa’s Bardot Sessions in Hollywood on Saturday night.
“They definitely all came together because they had dinner at the Soho House prior,” a source tells OK! “They sat at the table [in front of the stage].”

Both Cameron and Joanna weren’t with their beaus (Yankee Alex Rodriguez and Nick Swisher) to help them through the heartbreak from their huge defeat the day before: losing to the Texas Rangers and not advancing to the World Series.
But according to a source, Cameron nor Joanna appeared to be romantic with the Glee star: “Cameron and Matthew were definitely sweet toward one another — but it wasn’t an obvious flirt… They also sat across from one another not side by side.”
Sounds as though Mr. Schuester was well-behaved, and is rather similar to his care-taking character on the hit FOX show.

“Matthew appears to be a pretty great dude,” the source continued. “[He] was looking after all his whole group.”
After the live set, which included from Sessions regulars like Macy Gray and singer LP, the Glee-full group moved on to the lounge to hang out for the remainder of the evening — where Cameron danced with Joanna.

Christina Aguilera Blows Off Steam in Las Vegas

Christina Aguilera was spotted at TAO Las Vegas on Saturday letting loose post divorce after performing at Justin Timberlake’s concert benefitting Shriner’s Hospitals for Children and an eyewitness tells OK! that she had a great time.
The newly single platinum beauty took her crew of dancers and close friends to TAO to blow off some steam.

Clad in a Herve Leger skin tight dress, and onlooker tells OK!, “She danced with her friends and waved to the crowd from her skybox when DJ Vice shouted out ‘the sexiest lady in the world is in the house.’”
The crowd went nuts and snapped photos from below.
The source explains that, “Aguilera stayed until almost 3 am, enjoying herself while surrounded by friends.”

The Plain White T’s hit LAVO after their performance at the benefit. The group drank Ketel One and Red Bull cocktails, splitting time between their VIP table and the dance floor.

Hollywood's Celebrity Heavy Hitters Battle Pro 23

James Cameron - Avatar for Clean Air

Photo: Photo credit by Broddi via Flickr

The November election is just days away and at the forefront of this years’ heated battles sits Proposition 23. Heavily backed by out-of-state oil companies it has the potential to undo much of what California has already gained in the fight for clean air and clean technology leadership. With so much at stake, Hollywood is stepping forward with the power of its influential muscle to beat back the profit centric oil conglomerates and make sure Californians vote NO on Prop 23. Loosely veiled as a pro job aid proposition, there’s a lot more to this issue than most people realize and Hollywood heavy hitters like James Cameron, Robert Redford, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Edward James Olmos, Amy Smart and David Arquette, among many others, are working hard to get the truth out there and educate the public about what Prop 23 would really do to further damage the California economy and cripple clean air efforts.
Subsidized predominantly by out-of-state finance and oil companies, including Texas-based Valero and Tesoro Corp. (who have collectively put over $5m into the campaign), Prop 23 would suspend California’s landmark 2006 Global Warming Solutions Act (AB 32) until the state unemployment level stays below 5.5% for a full year. AB 32 requires California to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and has been seen by many as a catalyst to the clean tech/ renewable energy industry boom in the state. While unemployment in California currently sits at 12% and jobs are indeed badly needed, it’s interesting to note that the unemployment rate in California has only fallen below 5.5% three times since 1970. Many see this measure as a ruse to indefinitely delay climate change actions. It also doesn’t take into account the fact that California is now leading in the clean tech arena and with its burgeoning green industry supported by the state’s current initiatives, new job growth in this sector has a greater potential to right the California economy than the damage to economic growth that passing Prop 23 would have. Speaking to this point at a rally last week, environmental advocate Van Jones, was quoted as saying that Prop 23 “threatens to kill off California's green tech industry, one of the few bright spots in job growth even as other countries, like China, invest in green technology development”. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, also on the attack against the oil companies and right wing groups bankrolling Prop 23, warned that the ballot initiative would not only cripple clean technology – the fastest growing sector of California's economy, but would delay the planned 2012 launch of a regional carbon trading market that could help spur California’s economic growth even further.
One of the biggest questions Prop 23 poses is just why Texas oil companies and out-of-state financial moguls should be influencing air quality standards in California to begin with. Hollywood’s NO on Prop 23 champions are shouting out against the very thought. Director James Cameron, one voice among many who care about both the health of Californians and humanity’s future, has backed the campaign against Proposition 23 with a $1million infusion. Longtime Hollywood environmental icon Robert Redford slammed Prop. 23 in recorded calls that went out last week saying, "Texas oil companies paid to put Prop. 23 on your ballot and if they are successful, it will repeal California's historic clean air and energy laws. Prop. 23 will result in more air pollution and will kill hundreds of thousands of clean energy jobs in California." Lending his own quirky twist to the campaign against Prop 23, David Arquette threw in with environmental groups to star in a series of online viral videos aimed at younger voters labeled the "Don't Mess with California" campaign. Arquette, a firm believer that supporting the environment is too important to ignore, was quoted as saying, "My belief is that the most important aspect of celebrity is you can raise awareness, lend your name and support to certain things and get people talking. That's why I'm here."
This is absolutely an environmental issue too big to ignore and Hollywood is showing its support for California’s leadership in the green economy. Maybe it’s time to really think about what’s important to your future and future generations. Get out there, get active and vote for California’s future.

Artful Bench and Bar Fundraiser for CLERC
Proof that legal professionals can occasionally kick up their heels and have a good time lay in Wednesday night's Artful Bench and Bar event at Hotel Arts.
The annual fundraising bash for the Children's Legal and Education Resource Centre was literally overflowing with lawyers and judges keen to donate their time and dollars to the charitable organization that's committed to providing legal advice, information and representation to local children and youth who have nowhere else to turn for legal support.
The Artful Bench and Bar saw hundreds of sport coat and cocktail gown-clad partygoers bidding on original pieces of art created and donated by members of Calgary's legal community. And bid high they did, with more than $20,000 raised through the evening's live auction.
Hats off to Calgary firms Campbell O'Hara, Felesky Flynn LLP, Borden Ladner Gervais LLP, Foster Richmond LLP and Twyman Jamieson LLP for sponsoring the event. For more info on the work of CLERC, visit www.youthlaw.ca.

Celebrity couple- Russel Brand and Katy Perry host grand reception at Jaipur

• 
  

British comic, Russel Brand and his newly wedded wife US pop-star Katy Perry celebrated their grand reception at the royal destination of Jaipur after getting married among very tight security and live tigers.
The couple got married this week on Saturday in a “very private and spiritual ceremony” which was attended only by very close friends and family.
The wedding venue was the luxury resort right next to the Ranthambore tiger sanctuary where tight security was maintained to do the best that could be done to avoid curious eyes and paparazzi lenses.
The wedding was done in a strictly spiritual Indian style where Russel was leading the procession on a horseback along with camels and elephants by his side. His wife Katy also wore a traditional Indian dress and had henna designs on her palms to mark the ceremony.
Their reception was held in a grand fashion at the luxury Taj Rambagh Palace Hotel which was converted into a heritage hotel in the year 1957. It was the former residence of the Maharaja and Maharani of Jaipur.

Mel Gibson dropped from Hangover 2 role like hot potatoe

(HMG Celebrity News) – Well he just might have to stick to working in Jodie Foster films for now.  Mel Gibson who’s tarnished reputation has been further besmirched after being accused of domestic abuse against ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva, the mother of his one-year-old daughter and ranting at her on the phone,  was set to make a light comeback  in the sequel to the Hangover, in which the original film about a stag party that goes awry in Las Vegas, took more than $467m globally.   The embattled actor was announced to make a cameo in The Hangover 2, but that apparently didn’t sit well with some of the cast and crew.  Director Todd Phillips confirmed the news Thursday, saying, “I thought Mel would have been great in the movie… But I realize filmmaking is a collaborative effort, and this decision ultimately did not have the full support of my entire cast and crew.”  It’s obviously a blow  for Gibson, who accepted the small role to get himself back out there, only to have it yanked away from him in such an embarrassing way.  The sequel, due out next year, will reunite Zach Galifianakis, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Justin Bartha.

Conan O’Brien’s First Guests Announced

(HMG Celebrity News) – After nearly 20 years at NBC, Conan O’Brien’s late-night debut on TBS hosting “Conan” will kick off with Seth Rogen and musician Jack White on Monday, Nov. 8, the network has announced.  And there will be a yet unannounced guest perhaps as well.  Leading up to the highly anticipated debut of the show, simply called “Conan,” O’Brien has been polling his fans at Team Coco, about which special guest they would most like to see on the first episode, with choices ranging from the unlikely such as Vladimir Putin and Pope Benedict XVI, to the unknown Arlene Wagner, curator of the Leavenworth Nutcracker Museum.

Actors for Bilbo Baggins and Other Key Roles for The Hobbit Announced

(HMG Movie News) – While the location for filming is still undecided, Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh have begun announcing key cast members for The Hobbit.  The back-to-back installments of The Hobbit will begin shooting in February and Jackson has not wasted any time announcing his cast.

Michael Lohan Attacked by Knife-Wielding Maniac or Just Crying for Attention Again?

(HMG Celebrity Gossip) – While his daughter, Lindsay Lohan is set to appear in court on Friday (October 22) for her probation violation hearing, Michael Lohan is back in the news again.  In either a unfortunate event or another desperate cry for attention, daddy Lohan claims he was attacked outside his home in Santa Monica, CA, about an hour after he received a threatening phone call.  Michael supposedly went out for cigarettes, when he was allegedly jumped from behind. TMZ sources say the suspect, whom Michael says is in his 50s or 60s, began choking him and had some kind of sharp object which he used to slice Michael’s neck.  Michael says the knife penetrated his skin and caused substantial bleeding.  According to sources, Michael says the man cut him again as he fought the guy off. The perp eventually fled on foot.
It might turn out that his claims are confirmed to be true, but I can’t help feeling like how pathetic is this if they are not.  Michael  released a statement out of nowhere earlier this week, saying he was through using the press to communicate with his former family saying:
“After serious thought and conversation last night … with all due respect to those who have both gotten on my nerves for reporting things that weren’t true, (as well as things that were), I want to make a public statement that I will not be commenting on ANYTHING relating to my daughter Lindsay [Lohan], or ANYTHING my ex wife Dina, or any ‘sources’ related to her, might say.”

Rod Stewart unveils love-child from brief teen romance

[HMG Celebrity News] – Now 65, and with a new baby due just after New Year, Rod Stewart has added another name to his family – Sarah Streeter. The daughter he gave up for adoption when he was in college.
“She was adopted when I was 17 or 18, I think,” the vintage vocalist told Joy Behar yesterday. “I was absolutely stone broke, so she was put up for adoption.”
For her first 18-years Sarah had no idea Rod was even her father. Now 46, she lives in England and is finding the process of reconnecting tricky, but very rewarding.
“There’s no anger,” Streeter told the Mail. “I was never angry about what happened, just sad. But I realize it’s been as difficult for him as it’s been for me. Now we’re at the start of a new chapter, and that’s wonderful.”
The pair first made contact when Rod sent her a letter after the death of Sarah’s adoptive parents in 2007.
“Since her mum and dad died we’ve tried to come together, and it’s working pretty well,” Stewart says. “I never felt I was her dad, because I didn’t take her to school or change her diapers – there was no paternal thing there, but I’m trying.”
The outcome of a brief romance Rod had with a student in the mid-60’s, Sarah and Rod reconnected when Rod sent flowers and a note after her adoptive mother, Evelyn died of a stroke. Now part of his sizable family of seven, with #8 due in January, Sarah says she’s delighted but nervous about the new connection.
“It’s all water under the bridge now,” she explains. “It’s nerve-racking, too, but just as much so for him as it is for me.”
At 46 Sarah faces the tricky position of being seven years older than Rod’s latest wife, Penny Lancaster. But that’s not the only odd thing – Before she knew Rod was her dad, Sarah was quite an admirer;
“I had a poster of him on my wall because I thought he was sexy – then suddenly I find out he’s my father,” she says, giggling. “Now I’m getting to know him more. Rod has actually come into my life in a big way since mother’s gone, and I don’t think that’s a coincidence.”
They finally met at one of Rod’s concerts in July at the ‘02 Arena’ in London. And now the bond is reformed, Sarah says their future looks strong;
“For a while, he didn’t really talk about me,” Sarah tells the reporters. “Now he talks about his seven children and an eighth on the way, not the six, and that’s lovely. Finally, it’s turned out the way I wanted it to, and it couldn’t be better.”

Sister Wives’ wife #2 married to #1’s brother

TLC

[HMG Celebrity News] — That glorious banquet of white trash that is ‘Sister Wives’ just got even more fun – It’s now been discovered that one of Kody Brown’s four wives was originally married to another wife’s brother.
It seems Brown’s second wife, Janelle married Adam Barber – the brother of Kody’s first wife, Meri – in Salt Lake City in 1988. They divorced two years later, then Janelle and Kody performed a ’spiritual union’ ceremony in 1993.
A source says Kody even helped break up the marriage, and another insider says Meri is still distressed by the link.
“Meri was originally very upset over Janelle dumping her brother,” a family source tells the Star. “I think there’s been a lot of tension between her, Janelle and Kody all these years.”
The Brown’s unusual lifestyle has proved a hit, drawing over 2-million viewers – a record for TLC. But the reception from lawmakers has been less than warm – The day after the pilot aired, Salt Lake City Police announced they were debating polygamy charges. Kody could face 20-years in jail, and each wife could get up to five.
No charges have so far emerged, but just being in the show has already cost Meri her job and lost Kody several clients for his advertising business. And they’ve got twelve children to feed. So life could be better.

Lindsay Lohan ducks jail, gets rebab renewed

[HMG Celebrity News] – In further proof the justice system in Hollywood is in dire need of a reboot, Lindsay Lohan has avoided a jail sentence again, and been sentenced to rehab for her recent probation infraction.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elden S. Fox ordered that the 24-year old addict must now remain at the Betty Ford Center until January 3rd, then report back to court on February 25.
Sources say Lohan cried happy tears after hearing the sentence.
In her fifth court appearance in only five months, Lohan was facing a possible sentence of 30-days for each drug test she’d avoided or failed. But Fox opted for rehab after reading reports by probation officers and a letter from Lohan herself.
But he cautioned the faded starlet she would face jail if another relapse occurred.
This is the same judge who canceled Lohan’s probation on September 24 and sent her back to jail. She was free on bail the same day, and has since been in voluntary rehab at the Betty Ford clinic.
This whole legal mess stems from her arrest on August 23, 2007 for drug use and DUI, She pleaded guilty to using cocaine and driving while drunk and was sentenced to one day in jail, and ten days of community service.
And they wonder why she doesn’t change.
Back in September Fox laid out a 60-day schedule of counseling sessions, meetings with probation officers and random drug screenings that would end her probation if she complied.
In less than three weeks, Lohan failed a drug test. She later acknowledged this on Twitter, but claimed she was ’struggling’ with addiction.
And so it goes on.

Kate Gosselin Smeared in L & S ‘Nanny Quits’ Story?

(HMG Celebrity News) – Apparently I am not the only one that thinks Kate Gosselin is a totally self absorbed witch and or the word that rhymes with it.   Life & Style is clearly not a fan either, claiming that one of Kate’s nannies, Ariel Cantara, recently quit because of Gosselin’s unreasonable demands and in the process of telling that story the magazine gets in a lot of pretty cheap shots.  Sprinkled among the claims is that Kate is a slave driver i.e. she expects her nannies to work whenever she needs them up to 24 hours, and they must sleep overnight when needed and join the Gosselins on vacation.  Kate is also allegedly a neat and control freak, and has gone through about 11 nannies and tons of helpers in the past few years because she rides them so hard.
The accusations are bracketed by snarky comments like Kate might be forced to actually parent her eight kids now and suggesting that she “could save some money by being a more hands-on mom… but that, of course, would interfere with her salon appointments and bid to make it in Hollywood.”
The article then concludes “Kate is unavailable to her children,” and according to L & S’s insider. “She never plays with them anymore and is constantly busy with her personal affairs. That’s why she always needs a nanny!”
As I said I am totally turned off by Kate, because of what I saw of her interactions with her children and her former hen pecked husband on her show, not to mention her diva behavior on Dancing With The Stars.  But I also think when you have that many kids, you’re never be able to give each one enough attention and suggesting that the single mother only needs a nanny because she is too busy with her personal affairs is totally ridiculous.

Russell Brand and Katy Perry Get Married in Elaborate Indian Ceremony

(HMG Celebrity News) – Russell Brand and Katy Perry got married Saturday in a traditional Indian ceremony, in front of 80 or so guests at the luxury Aman-i-Khas resort near the Ranthambhore tiger sanctuary in Rajasthan. The two exchanged vows at the same spot where Brand, 35, proposed to Perry – who turns 26 Monday – over New Years eve.  Camels, elephants and horses were reportedly planned as part of the wedding procession from Sher Bagh, another nearby luxury resort, to the Aman-e-Khas. The procession according to an Us Weekly report would have Brand riding into the ceremony on an elephant accompanied by traditional Indian dancers and musicians. Katy’s bridal wardrobe reportedly included items from Zuhair Murad and Donna Mizani. Early birthday to Katy, and congrats to the happy couple!!

Celine Dion Gives Birth to Twins

(HMG Celebrity News) – Celine Dion, 42, has given birth to twin boys, and mother and babies are all doing well.  The fraternal twin boys who haven’t been named yet, weighed in at 5 lbs., 4 oz., and 5 lbs., 10 oz.,  and while healthy, they will spend the next few days in an incubator because they were born premature. The boys join their 9-year-old brother Rene-Charles, who has already been to the hospital to see them, along with dad, Rene Angelil. The twin boys, who were due in November, were reportedly the result of a sixth in-vitro fertilization attempt.

Kat Von D Wants to Rewrite Recent Past Romances By Cutting Them Out of Show?

(HMG Celebrity News) – She already has gotten way more attention then she deserves, but I am fascinated at the predicament Kat Von D, now finds herself in with her recent public romances (or as others say, as she screws her way up the social ladder).  Having allegedly gotten dumped by Sandra Bullock’s ex, Jesse James and now reportedly  jumping back to ex-boyfriend Nikki Sixx has made a mess of the filming for the next season of her show.  As we previously reported Kat allegedly threatened the bosses of LA Ink with lawsuits over scenes that shows her hating on Nikki.  Kat shot the scenes several months ago, just after she and Nikki had split. She was already dating Jesse,, and she was clearly worried about her comments on Nikki, and ‘freaked out’ and ‘went ballistic’ on producers earlier this week over the scenes, She demanded they cut them, along with others where she talks about a “Nikki vs. Jesse” game – or she’d file a lawsuit and stop the show cold.  Now it appears she is doubly screwed because Kat has again gone nuclear over the way ex-boyfriend Jesse James was portrayed in upcoming episodes that Kat recently screened.  Kat according to TMZ, has decided that she no longer wants any traces of Jesse on the show and demanded that producers pull him from all future episodes.  One of those wash that man right out of my hair scenarios, that’s not really supposed to happen in a reality show.  But supposedly producers are complying and desperately trying to rip Jesse from the show, but there’s so much content to remove, they’re worried they may to pack the show with extra commercials to fill out the time before the first show airs Wednesday night.  If true so much for reality, when you totally edit out big parts of your life, and trying to rewrite history, especially idiotic and hypocritical after she went public with the relationship and was gushing about how in love she was with Jesse.

Halle Berry and Oliver Martinez go public with romance

(HMG Celebrity Gossip) – It’s not like their romance is any big secret anymore, but Halle Berry and her new boyfriend, French actor Olivier Martinez, stepped out for the 32nd Annual Carousel Of Hope Ball at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills Saturday night. The ball benefits The Barbara Davis Center for Childhood Diabetes. Oliver and Halle mingled with other stars including Jennifer Lopez and husband Marc Anthony, who later performed a duet on stage.
The happy duo originally met on the set of their new movie Dark Tide earlier this year and it blossomed into a romance soon after.  They were first spotted in Paris, France as a couple and now seem inseparable, coming to LA this week looking in love wherever they turn up, which of late, has been all over West Hollywood, CA.
Recent reports claim Halle, who recently split from model Gabriel Aubry after nearly five years together, introduced Olivier to her mom.

Party and Punishment

In April, after years of the online tabloids’ pushing photos of Lindsay Lohan looking undone in the back seats of limousines, Dr. Drew Pinsky, the TV addiction specialist, offered his opinion of Lohan to one of those Web sites.

If Lohan “were my daughter,” Pinsky told Radar–Online, the celebrity gossip site, “I would pack her car full with illegal substances, send her on her way, call the police and make sure she was arrested.” Pinsky went on: “I would make sure she was not allowed to get out of jail. I would then go to the judge and make sure she was ordered to a minimum of a three-year sobriety program.”
It’s not clear whether a Pinskian frame-up ever took place. But Lohan, who is 24, has been sent to jail twice since Pinsky spoke to RadarOnline about her. Last summer she served 14 days of a 90-day sentence at the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, Calif., for skipping the alcohol-education classes that the court mandated after two arrests in 2007 for drunken driving and drug possession. She was then sent to court-ordered rehab, but she failed a drug test not long after she checked out. She went briefly back to jail. She was released on bail. At the end of September, she checked into the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, Calif., reportedly for cocaine addiction.
Lohan’s four mug shots, which can be found on Radar, TMZ, Gawker, Perez Hilton, Pop Crunch and dozens of other gossip sites, are online genre pieces: studies in inky eyeliner, corn-yellow peroxide and precinct-office fluorescence. Chin tilted down, eyes cast up, Lohan expresses glamour — the modern starlet’s answer to grace — under pressure.
Celebrity women may find it easy to get into glamorous character because they’re so often arrested during evenings on the town, dressed to the nines. Celebrity men who are arrested, by contrast, typically get photographed right after a fight and may still have the adrenaline, aggression and injuries that come with trading words or blows.
When Web sites publish images of celebrities in trouble, they also solicit comments on these images. The comments are rarely kind. One report about Lohan in The Los Angeles Times won this response, which is still on the newspaper’s site: “That coke-headed prostitute will never rehabilitate herself . . . she’s forever and truly a MESS!! Let the skank hit rock bottom . . . hard!” Online commenters seem to concur with Drew Pinsky: what these women “need,” beyond punishment for any particular violation of the law, is time in prison to grow up and wipe that smug pout — and pumpkin-colored bronzer — off their faces.
Not long ago, “The Real Housewives of D.C.,” a reality show, chronicled the public humiliation of Michaele and Tareq Salahi, the Virginia couple who managed to make it into a party at the White House without being on the guest list. While Michaele’s cast mates watched members of the House Homeland Security Committee grill and excoriate the Salahis, they whooped with delight. “Go to jail! Make some license plates!” shouted Lynda Erkiletian, a longtime social acquaintance of Ms. Salahi’s.
Over the course of the program, Lynda and the other cast members proposed that Michaele was controlled by her husband. They said she was unstable, a complete phony. They said she was like Bonnie of Bonnie and Clyde. Bonnie and Clyde murdered people.
In all the analysis, no one seems to zero in on what Michaele Salahi plainly is: a pretty lady who wants to dress up and have fun at fancy parties. Even after the story of her party-crashing broke, Salahi still wanted to talk to Bravo’s camera chiefly about her dress and what an impressive figure she had cut in it.
Maybe that’s not very noble. But in itself it’s not against the law. For that matter, alcoholism is not against the law, and neither is sleeping around or lying about how many drinks you’ve had or even seeming very, very skanky. For those who maturely skipped the party phase of life, gaming the guest list (But Russell Simmons said I’d have a plus one! My boyfriend’s right in the door!) is part and parcel of the night-life spirit — and also not in itself a jailable offense.
Right after 9/11, Muslim regimes were depicted as tyrannical in part because they demonized Western fun-loving culture in the name of a misogynistic ideology. Slowly but surely we’ve been doing the same thing with our most visible good-time girls, making villains of women who are dangerous almost exclusively to themselves. We point cameras into their darkened cars and literally up their skirts to find cellulite or evidence of immodesty that wouldn’t exist without the cameras. When they start drinking and doing drugs, just as many celebrities before them have done, we become incensed, agitating for them to go to jail. Pretty soon someone like Pinsky is openly scheming to frame one of them so she can end up behind bars. If these women are bad examples to our daughters, we who take a hang-’em-high attitude to party girls have officially become bad examples to their parents.
