Miley Cyrus arrives at the 53rd annual Grammy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 13, 20...
Actress-singer Miley Cyrus yelled out at a photographer for the second day in a row after he got too close to her while she was leaving a gym.
The 18-year-old singer-and-actress was leaving a gym in West Hollywood, California, when the incident took place. She than unsuccessfully tried to grab his camera, X17.
The incident occurred just a day after she scolded a member of the paparazzi for bumping into her mother with a camera as they were getting into their car after lunch at the California Chicken Cafe.
'You just rammed my mom with your camera. Don't you ever do that again. You just almost hurt my mom. Don't you ever even think about it,' femalefirst.co.uk quoted her saying.
The Hannah Montana star also tweeted about it saying, 'Being a paparazzi is the most DISGUSTING job imaginable.'
I LOVE KATY PERRY!!!! SHE IS THE BEST SINGER EVER!!!!!! KATY, I LOVE YOU!! YESTERDAY I WAS GOING TO A CONCERT OF YOURS, AND IT WAS AMAZING!!! YOU MAKE ME FEEL LIKE I'M LIVING ON TEENAGE DREAM!!!!
Born This Way has managed to retain its dominance over the Billboard Hot 100 Chart for the fourth week in a row! The song has marked Lady GaGas longest reign at the top of the chart, having only ever remained there for three weeks with Just Dance and Pokerface. The song has managed to sell just under 1,500,000 copies since its release and beat off hard competition from Jennifer Lopez to hit the spot.
To add to the success, Pokerface has broken yet another record. The song has sold 6 million copies in the United States, becoming only the third song to do so, and Lady GaGas second song to do so after Just Dance managed to hit the number. The only other act to accomplish this are the Black Eyed Peas with their song I Gotta Feeling.
Beyonce has declared war on pop rival Lady Gaga declares the National Enquirer.
According to the tabloid, the former friends are in a major feud and no longer speaking, despite having collaborated on last years hit Telephone.
Wow, talk about a clash of music titans!
So what allegedly happened?
The Enquirers insider claims the bad blood between Beyonce and Gaga has been brewing for months, but it really exploded after the Grammy Awards in February when Gaga arrived inside an egg.
Beyonce thought Gagas entrance was way over the top and ridiculously self-serving, explains the insider, which supposedly led Beyonce to ignore Gaga backstage (and Gaga to complain to friends about Beyonce).
The Enquirer says Beyonce has slammed Gaga as a selfish egomaniac, while Gaga reportedly refers to Beyonce as just another jealous hater.
It sounds like a dramatic split between the two powerhouses except no one we asked could confirm anything of the sort to Gossip Cop. A source close to Beyonce tells us the supposed Cold War between her and Gaga is totally untrue.
Maybe the Enquirers sources have been playing a game of Telephone.

IF YOU GO
--When: Saturday, March 12 --Where: Sheboygan Memorial Mall --Time: noon to 5 p.m. --Cost: Autographs $25, photos $40, photo and autograph $65. Portion of proceeds to benefit Alexs Lemonade Stand Foundation.
When Peter Facinelli signed up for the first Twilight film, there were modest expectations surrounding the project.
The goal was to hopefully get a good enough response to do a second movie, Facinelli said recently during an interview with The Sheboygan Press. We wanted to make a great movie for the fans of these books. Theres an underground following, and if it did well, maybe we could do a second movie. I dont think we knew it would become a cultural phenomenon.
Three movies later, the Twilight saga has become one of the most successful movie franchises of all-time. Based on Stephanie Meyers No. 1 New York Times best-selling series about a Romeo & Juliet-style romance between a mortal and a vampire, the Twilight movies have shattered records for openings and midnight showings around the country.
Facinelli, 37, who stars as Dr. Carlisle Cullen, described as the altruistic patriarch of the Cullen clan, will be stopping in Sheboygan at Memorial Mall on Saturday for an autograph session and meet-and-greet with fans from noon to 5 p.m. Cost for autographs is $25, and $40 for photos, and both for $65. A portion of the proceeds from the signing will go to Alexs Lemonade Stand Foundation, which raises funds for cancer awareness.
Many moviegoers will forever link Facinellis name with the Twilight series, but the veteran actor has a long, impressive resume both on the big and small screen. His credits include The Scorpion King, Riding in Cars with Boys opposite Drew Barrymore, sci-fi hit Supernova with James Spader and Angela Bassett, and the movie that put him on the map, Cant Hardly Wait, a coming-of-age teen flick, opposite Jennifer Love Hewitt. His TV credits include a spot on HBOs award winning Six Feet Under.
He also currently stars as Dr. Cooper in a highly regarded Showtime series, Nurse Jackie, which stars Edie Falco. The only similarities in his characters in Nurse Jackie and the Twilight movies, Facinelli says, are his titles.
Its just an occupation, he said. The characters are 180 degrees from each other, they just happen to share the same job.
Britney Spears Talks Sex, Plastic Surgery and Gay Marriage
Britney Spears Talks Sex, Plastic Surgery and Gay Marriage
OUT Magazine
Just when you think you know everything there is to know about Britney Spears, the pop princess goes and has a chat with Out magazine.
And let me tell ya, it's a good thing. Read on to find out what Brit told the gay magazine about sex, plastic surgery, gay marriage and so much more...
Now 29 years old and the mother of two boys, Spears says her mom taught her about the birds and the bees when she was 12 years old. "I was confused and disgusted," she admits.
Her idea of hell is being on a diet, she'll probably consider plastic surgery "when it's time to pull and tuck" and if she wasn't a singer, she might have become...an attorney?!
"I was in seventh grade and it was career day and I remember thinking that I wanted to be an entertainment lawyer," Spears said. "I always knew I would be in this business somehow. I think this path worked out way better."
Spears isn't about to switch teams. Asked if there are any women who could make her think twice about being straight, Spears said, "I only have eyes for men."
If one of her sons turned out to be gay, no problem. "I love my boys no matter what.," she said.
And she said of gay marriage, "I think everyone should be treated equally."
Phil Collins leaves music industry to be full-time dad
Phil Collins leaves music industry to be full-time dad
Phil Collins, who has sold more than 150 million records, says he is retiring because he wants to spend more time with family.
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
He releases a statement to clarify recent media speculation over his career
The 60-year-old dad says he is retiring to devote more time to his family
Collins has sold more than 150 million records in his 40-plus years
(CNN) -- Phil Collins, the man behind 1980s albums such as "No Jacket Required," has announced his retirement from music, but no straitjacket required, he says.
In a statement on his website, the 60-year-old dad said he is retiring to devote more time to his family and be a full-time father to his two young sons.
His statement was a bid to clarify recent media speculation, which he said painted him as battling health issues and feeling like an outsider in the music industry.
The articles painted "a picture of me that is more than a little distorted," he said on his website. "None of this is true. Thanks ... But there's no need for the straitjacket!"
The actor, pop star and former Genesis drummer said he was surprised by the articles because he had not talked to the media for months.
Collins has sold more than 150 million records in his 40-plus years in the music business.
"I'm not stopping because of dodgy reviews or bad treatment in the press," he said. "I'm not stopping because I don't feel loved; I know I still have a very large fan base that loves what I do. Thank you."
He cited an example of his album released last year, which topped the U.K. charts.
"I'm not stopping because I don't fit in, this was proved with "Going Back" ... doing incredibly well worldwide. I'm not stopping so I can dive full time into my interest for the Alamo."
That last reference is aimed at comments he has reportedly made claiming to see spirits in modern photos from the fort, and to have spoken with a psychic who told him he was reincarnated from a man who fought in the battle.
But he does have a huge collection of memorabilia from the battle stashed at his Switzerland home.
"Some of the things mentioned above have been said by me in various interviews, but said as asides with a smile on my face and in passing. They were not meant to be headlines, they were small parts of a conversation," he said.
He said the reports have made him "sound like a tormented weirdo who thinks he was at the Alamo in another life, who feels very sorry for himself, and is retiring hurt because of the bad press over the years."
None of that is true, he said.
The British singer and drummer has also written songs for the Disney feature films "Tarzan" and "Brother Bear."
Sienna Miller has been working some chic casual ensembles recently whilst leaving the theatre as she rehearses for her new play. However, it was this striped knit which really caught my eye.

After a brief detour onto mens editions of Who Wore It Better? were back to Awards Season polls.
My second favourite newcomer of the year was Jennifer Lawrence.
The Winters Bone nominated actress was totally fearless on the red carpet.
She favoured Oscar de la Renta and Prabal Gurung this season as she wore them both twice, but her most daring choice was her Louis Vuitton gown which was my favourite look from her this season.

Vanessa Hudgens, Zac Efron and Jeff Bridges pose as Disney characters for campaign
Disney is launching a Let the Memories Begin campaign to promote their multiple theme parks and they have gotten famous photographer Annie Liebovitz to photograph some pretty familiar faces posing as some of our favorite Disney characters. Not all of them are shown below, but they are some of the better ones and include: Jeff Bridges and Penelope Cruz in a scene from Beauty and the Beast, Queen Latifah as the sea witch Ursula, Julianne Moore and Michael Phelps in The Little Mermaid, Gisele Bündchen, Mikhail Baryshnikov and Tina Fey in Peter Pan, Alec Baldwin and Olivia Wilde in Snow White and finally Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens in Sleeping Beauty. More photos can be viewed from the link below.
This isnt something we normally post, but these photos are truly breathtaking and just so beautifully shot. Love them or hate them, Disney knows marketing and this is one heck of a campaign.
Gaga reportedly pulled out because she doesn't agree with Target's corporate policies on political donations and how they impact the gay community, according to The Advocate.
"Lady Gaga and Target came to a mutual decision to end their overall exclusive partnership a few weeks ago," a rep for the singer tells me.
Gaga raised eyebrows among her gay fans when she announced that Target would be releasing an exclusive edition of her new album, Born This Way. Target came under fire from gay groups just months before because it donated to MN Forward, a political action committee that supported Tom Emmer, an antigay politician who made an unsuccessful 2010 run for governor of Minnesota.
Gaga had said she had signed off on her deal after meeting with Target executives.
"That discussion was one of the most intense conversations I've ever had in a business meeting," Gaga told Billboard magazine about three weeks ago. "Part of my deal with Target is that they have to start affiliating themselves with LGBT charity groups and begin to reform and make amends for the mistakes they've made in the past...our relationship is hinged upon their reform in the company to support the gay community and to redeem the mistakes they've made supporting those groups."
No word on what went down since that interview took place, but I'm told Target has refused to promise that it would never donate to a political candidate or group believed to be antigay.
Reps for Target did not immediately comment for this story.
Will You Wear Chanel's Latest Nail Shade in Mimosa?
Will You Wear Chanel's Latest Nail Shade in Mimosa?
Pictures are out, and so I must talk about the latest 'it' lacquer from Chanel called Le Vernis Nail Colour in Mimosa that is set to launch this April as part of the Spring 2011 collection.
It's bright, sexy, daring and something we've seen on A-list stars like Rihanna, Katy Perry and even Natalie Portman in the past couple of Spring/Summers in shiny opaques. However, this yellow shade is more like the bubbly it's named after (in the UK, we also call this orange juice, champy mix a buck's fizz) as it contains flecks of green and gold shimmer too. I'm excited for a Sunday brunch mimosa cocktail wearing Chanel Mimosa how about you?

Max Iron Talks About Rob âHeâs Been Gifted and Cursedâ
Max Iron Talks About Rob Hes Been Gifted and Cursed
Max Irons may be being compared to Robert Pattinson but the Red Riding Hood star reckons R-Patz has been gifted and cursed with fame.
The son of acting couple Jeremy Irons and Sinead Cusack hit the red carpet in Hollywood to premiere the new thriller in which he plays Amanda Seyfrieds love interest.
Having been cast and directed in the movie by Twilights Catherine Hardwicke, Max confessed he takes any Pattinson comparisons as a compliment.
Well Roberts a lovely actor, [but] this is a different beast to the film that shall not be named! he joked, before adding: You know, I think hes been gifted and cursed.
The 25-year-old explained: All you want to be able to do as an actor is work and to be able to focus on the work. For lack of a better term, the celebrity is consequential and all you should be doing is focusing on the quality of your work and kind of, I think, ignoring the rest of it.
If I can do that and have a long, long career and not a short, short career thats all I want.
Robert by the way is going to have a long, long career, Max added. I have a feeling about that because hes English!
Image Credit: Sergei Bachlakov/ABCIts official: The Fifth Column is the single worst rebellion in the history of human rebellions. On last nights episode of V, they had a big idea: Sabotage Concordia, and thus prove to the rest of humanity that Visitor technology isnt the greatest thing ever. Sid the Lab Tech came up with the brilliant idea of overloading Concordias big Blue Energy balls with some tiny Blue Energy balls. His explanation: You ever stick a fork in an electrical socket when you were a kid? Same idea. Meltdown! Nobody seemed to think that sticking an incredibly unstable fork in a magnificently powerful electrical socket might have a downside. Turns out, the Fifth Column plan wouldve destroyed, like, the entire eastern seaboard. So the Fifth Column ended up heroically rescuing humanity from the Fifth Column. When the resulting energy surge caused a blackout, the Visitors used their energy to turn the lights back on, thus proving yet again that Visitor technology is, in fact, the greatest thing ever.
Because they clearly hadnt done enough to end the human race forever, the Fifth Column also took some time out of their busy schedule to muzzle the only anti-Visitor voice in the media. Anna didnt like how Chads mouthy co-anchor was turning people against the spooky aliens in the sky. So Chad pulled the ol pre-Newscast Backstab, telling Kerry that he had a hot tip from a mysterious source inside the Justice Department that the Visitors actually caused the blackout. Kerry repeated this hot tip on air two seconds later, without any attempt at confirmation. Naturally, she was fired. (This is exactly how Eliot Spitzer got rid of Kathleen Parker, according to my source at the Justice Department.)
So, in just about 24 hours, the anti-V rebellion almost killed millions of people, handed the enemy a huge PR victory, and got rid of the only person on any cable news networks who occasionally expressed vaguely snarky disapproval of the Visitors. For comparison, imagine if the Rebel Alliance spent the first Star Wars movie* blowing up Alderaan, killing Luke Skywalker, and accidentally creating four extra Death Stars for the Empire, and you have some vague sense about just how inefficient the Fifth Column have been this season. Every attempt we have made to take down Anna has failed, deadpanned Erica. Dear Fifth Column: Maybe you guys should just be a book club or something.
Considering it was the penultimate episode of this season of V, I was surprised by how low-key the episode felt. Anna had a new-new-new-new-new plan for dominating humanity: Using her Bliss to brainwash everybody all across the world. This worked, for some reason, but it makes her cry blood, for some reason. I guess she lost interest in the Quest to Remove the Human Soul. (At one point last night, Diana said, The human soul can never be removed. It is a fools errand! Do you ever get the feeling that Vs writers really hate each other, and are expressing that hatred in character dialogue?)
Also, Doctor Joshua magically remembered his Fifth Columnite past just in time to save Lisa. Kudos to Mark Hildreth for somehow maintaining his actorly dignity even as the director no doubt screamed from offscreen, More remembering, Mark! More remembering!!! There have been quite a few missed chances in this season of V I cant believe Jane Badler is still in that freakin sewer but its always been strange to me that they kept Doctor Joshua around just to turn him into another lame background Visitor. Lets hope he has something to do in next weeks season finale.
Viewers, what did you think of the episode? Is the Fifth Column their own worst enemy? Are you holding out hope for next weeks season finale?
*Yes, Star Wars is still the first Star Wars movie. No, we do not refer it as A New Hope. A New Hope is not the name of an awesome movie. A New Hope is the title of a pseudo-scientific self-help book that you keep hidden in the bathroom because you are aware that it is a stupid book with a silly title
Image Credit: Doug Hyun/TNTLook below the surface, and Southland is one of the quietest shows on television. On last nights season finale, there was a car crash, a rooftop chase, some bloody gunplay, and a brutally extended fight sequence. One man was shot to death, and another fell of a building. A child was born. At one point, a skimpily-dressed hooker climbed up onto the hood of a cop car and loudly demanded ten dollars while beating her fists against the windshield wipers. It could play as bombastic, but Southland never feels over-the-top. Even though the finale delivered big emotional payoffs for most of the main characters and even though the shows future is still currently up in the air the show ended its third season on a thoughtful note.
The key, I think, is the lack of music. The big action sequence of the episode saw Ben Sherman chasing a fleeing child molester up a fire escape and across a rooftop, while his ailing partner-mentor John Cooper suffering from bad back, drug-addled brain, and a semi-existential detachment from reality struggled to follow. Its the kind of sequence that on most TV shows would be scored with 24-ish action music, but on Southland, the only soundtrack was the tinny creaking of the fire escape, the quickening footsteps, and the ambient city sounds of a disinterested metropolis.
Of course, it helps when a cast is stacked this full of talented actors. Last night was a good showcase for Michael Cudlitz, who has nailed John Coopers slow-motion moral descent. (It feels like weve seen the guy age ten years this season.) His last scene was devastating as he checked into a hospital, listing off all the prescription drugs he was addicted to, he still managed to look disgusted when the nurse asked him if he had taken cocaine and heroin. Im a cop, he said, which in context was both sad and funny.
It was also thrilling to see Shawn Hatosys Sammy avenge Nates shocking death. It was, admittedly, a curiously perpendicular vengeance: Nates killer was fleeing from the cops for a different crime and ended up getting shot by some other uniforms on the scene. Still, Sammy got some mortal retribution, whispering Nates name in the dying killers ear over and over again: Nate Moretta. Nate Moretta, mf. It was a weird, fascinating scene, made even stranger when we saw Sammy holding his newborn son just a few scenes later.
At the end of the finale, Sammy was back in a uniform, with Sherman as his new partner. Id be interested to see those two characters play off each other more if the show goes to a fourth season. Viewers, did you enjoy the finale? Want to see more Southland? If the show goes to a fourth season, what former teen star would you like to see gritt-ify their reputation? Jason Behr? Jason Dohring? Some other former teen star named Jason?
And they say girls are bitchy! Well, McFly are obviously a band who stick together because Danny Jones has been giving bandmate Dougie Poynter a bit of verbal support over his break-up with Frankie Sandford.
You're probably already aware that Frankie has since copped off with footballer Wayne Bridge - a replationship which Danny has insisted will not last.
Dougie is reported to have gone into rehab to help him get over the split, and things are obviously still a bit raw with Danny too.
Speaking to New magazine, he said: "I personally couldn't give a s**t what she does, she can do what she likes.
"I haven't had a one-to-one chat with [Dougie] since it happened because we've been so busy with the tour, but I said to him last week, 'We need to go for a beer and a catch-up'. He's living with Tom [Fletcher] at the moment, so it's all good."
And Tom Fletcher, the other third of McFly, said: "Our houses are next door to each other. We'd see each other every day anyway, so he's moved in with me since he split up with Frankie."
They also apparently confirmed that Dougie has been on "a few" dates since the split. Not with Vannessa Perroncel though, we imagine.
What do you reckon? Should Danny keep his nose out of it? Comments below if you please...
At least Dougie and Franklie hadn't tied the knot young like these poor saps...
The co-chairman of President Obamas deficit commission was making some kind of point about Social Security on Fox News when he slipped into the following observation:

Sources directly connected to Mel Gibson tell TMZ ... he's aware he's going to be charged with a crime, and is agonizing over the prospect of putting his family through a public, knock-down, drag-out trial.
We're told Mel is confident he will only be charged with a low-level misdemeanor. Nonetheless, he is uncertain if he has the stomach to endure a 1-year legal fight and is worried about the impact it will have on his children.
As TMZ has already reported, Mel will be criminally charged with a misdemeanor over the January 6, 2010 blowout between him and Oksana Grigorieva.
We're told the D.A. will file charges against Mel this week -- very possibly today.
Lily Allen is set to appear in a new Channel 4 series this evening as we follow her journey from popstar to vintage shop owner in Riches to Rags.

It is expected to be quite revealing as Lily goes through some personal problems. Are you going to be tuning in, or is it not for you?
According to the site, Paltrow, who showed off her musical talents this year in the movie Country Strong and on Glee, has signed a contract worth approximately $900,000″ with Atlantic Records.
Not exactly.
A rep for Paltrow confirms to Gossip Cop that no deal is done with any record company yet.
At this point, we wouldn't be surprised. We're sure producers are ready to try anything to get this show to finally turn a profit, including kicking the people who started it all to the curb.
Sources are reporting that Julie Taymor, the director of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark on Broadway, may not be keeping that title for much longer.
The fact is, besides dealing with a slew of injuries and getting terrible reviews, the show's gone through tons of overhauls and nothing seems to be working. Perhaps, then, if Julie is the one standing in the way of major changes to the production, she'll end up being the major change herself.
As we understand it, something big is in the works either way over on 42nd street as it seems Bono has been called in for several meetings to talk about the show's future.
Um, how awkward is it gonna be if the producers turn around and say, "Hey Bono - fix the music!"
How you gonna tell Bono is his music is no good? He's got like 25 Grammys! He's freakin' Bono!
Things aren't looking good for you Julie, but here's hoping it all works out for the best for everyone.

Alice in Chains Rocker, Celebrity Rehab Patient Mike Starr Dead at 44
Alice in Chains Rocker, Celebrity Rehab Patient Mike Starr Dead at 44
VH1
Mike Starr's demons tragically caught up with him.
The original bassist for Alice in Chains was found dead Tuesday in Utah. He was 44. Cause of death has not yet been released.
Starr, who battled drug addiction, appeared on the third season of Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew in 2009 and gave a testimonial marking six months and seven days of sobriety during season four.
But his latest run-in with the law implied that he had hit a roadblock in his recovery.
Starr was arrested last month in Salt Lake City on suspicion of felony possession of a controlled substance for allegedly having six Xanax pills and six tablets of the painkiller Opana.
"Devastating to hear of Mike Starr succumbing to his illness. So very sad. Our prayers are with his family," Dr. Drew Pinskytweeted this afternoon.
Starr, who was born in Honolulu, played in Seattle with Jerry Cantrell and Sean Kinney as the glam band Diamond Lie, which later morphed into Alice in Chains with the addition of Layne Staley.
Their first studio EP was 1990's We Die Young.
Starr left the band in 1993 while they were touring with Ozzy Osbourne and was replaced by Mike Inez. Starr mentioned during his time on Celebrity Rehab that he had been booted from Alice in Chains because of his drug problem.
Inez was the one to reunite with Cantrell and Kinney in 2005 for a benefit concert for victims of the tsunami in South Asia. Staley died of a drug overdose in 2002.
"I totally back Mike and I back his efforts to get clean and remain somebody that I and the band really care abouthe's a friend of ours, you know, and we wish him the best," Cantrell wrote in the liner notes to the band's 2009 album Black Gives Way to Blue.

Lindsay Lohan to Sue Jewelry Store Over Sold Security Footage
Lindsay Lohan to Sue Jewelry Store Over Sold Security Footage
Sensing a legal opening along with a chance to cause misdirection and play the victim, Lindsay Lohan is going to sue Kamofie & Company jewelry store.
Why? She claims they had no legal standing to sell the infamous surveillance tape and that Lohan never licensed the rights to use her image for profit.
Kamofie sold the rights to distribute the tape to the Associated Press for at least $40,000. Lindsay says it's just proof they're using her to cash in.
No word on when Lindsay plans to file suit. [Photo: Pacific Coast News]
A rep for Kamofie tells TMZ that "We regret to hear there is trepidation by Miss Lohan in connection with the video" but that they had no choice but to sell.
Don't ask us why selling footage of Lohan allegedly committing felony theft to a media outlet became an involuntary act, but that's what they're saying:
The statement continues, "We hope everyone understands this is beyond our control, the flood of the requests to see this video were too overwhelming."

Selena Gomez Takes Time-Out From Justin to Debut New Songâand Sound Off on the Haters
Selena Gomez Takes Time-Out From Justin to Debut New Songand Sound Off on the Haters
Selena Gomez is all grown up with a mature new sound to prove it.
Not that she feels all that old, as the 18-year-old told our own Ryan Seacrest this morning that she doesn't feel a day over 15. Which is good news for boyfriend Justin Bieber who just became, by virtue of wacky celebrity math default, the sophisticated older man in their relationship.
So what does Selena have to say about her Biebertastic beau?
While appearing on Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show this morning to world premiere her new female-empowering single, "Who Says?," the topic of conversation inevitably turned to the state of her love life.
And Selena could not have played more coy. Refusing to even say Justin's name, she left it to Seacrest to mention the Biebs, and wouldn't comment on her recent Twitter acknowledgment of their relationship, in which she responded to his tweet of "I miss you" with the less clingy more coquettish, "I miss all of y'all."
"I miss everyone when I'm on tour, all my friends are gone," she slyly told Ryan. "It's nice to miss your friends and family."
Even nicer to ignore your haters, which is what Gomez is hoping to do with this tune, which starts out with the love yourself declaration, "Wouldn't want to be anyone else."
"Within that world, there's just such easy access to people's feelings. This song is such a great message to my fans, and it really touched me when I heard it Basically, it's to the haters, it's to the people who try to bring you down."
Sounds good to us. As does the song. And there could be more where that came from.
While Gomez said she has the next year and a half of her life totally planned out"at the moment I have not even a second to breathe within what I want to do"she may find a way to squeeze in some more studio time should this new single be well-received.
The Disney starwho's about to graduate from her four-year tenure at the mouse house with the end of Wizards of Waverly Place in sightsaid that a full album is "still tentative," but something she's currently working on.
And why not? Nothing like a little healthy chart competition to fire up a relationship, right?
Sheen was phoning in from "Sober Valley Lodge," where he claims to still be clean and sober and hard at work on his "manifesto."
"You'll find out more tonight on the show," he said of his continuing Sheen's Korner show on ustream.tv. "I'm busy writing my manifesto from now until then." (Sheen previously announced he was writing a book tentatively titled Apocalypse Me, but he wasn't clear if that was different from the manifesto.)
Sheen tells us he will be solo on tonight's livestream. "I don't need guests. I have one. Me," he said.
Now back to his "troll" costar Cryer. Sheen had been expecting a sympathetic phone call from his Emmy-winning wingman when Sheen first launched his war with show creator Lorre.
"Jon has not called me. He's a turncoat, a traitor, a troll. Clearly he's a troll," said Sheen. "He issued a statement. Is it gonna take me calling him a 'traitor, juvenile and scared' for him to get it?"
(Sheen might be misinformed on this count. E! News has repeatedly requested a statement from Cryer since Sheen first lashed out against the show over a week ago, but Cryer, via his rep, has declined to enter the fray. Cryer did do a sketch on Ellen riffing on his current unemployment but did not address Sheen directly; there was also a fake statement on Twitter from a spoof Cryer saying he was "shocked" with the whole debacle.)
Sheen has kinder words for some other cast and crew of the show, specifically citing several who are "not trolls" because they reached out and called him. Most notably "half man" Angus T. Jones, Conchata Ferrell (Berta the housekeeper), Melanie Lynskey (Rose the neighbor), Marin Hinkle (Judith Harper) and show director Jamie Widdoes.
And if Cryer does decide to reach out now?
"What's there to say? I'll tell him 'You're a little late. Goodbye, troll," said Sheen. "When I'm starring in multimillion-dollar films and he's begging me for a supporting role I'll say, 'You left me out in the cold with all of your guilt and stupidity.' "
On the most recent edition of Saturday Night Live, Miley Cyrus played the roles of Fergie, Lindsay Lohan and Justin Bieber.
But insiders tell Hollywood Life there's another new role Miley has been perfecting: flirt. The singer has reportedly been sending text messages to Kings of Leon bassist Jared Followill ever since the Europe Music Awards in November.
Miley wants to keep Jared interested, a source says. She often sends him coy text messages. So far, he is a big fan of what she has been sending.
This mole claims Followill, who hails from Cyrus' hometown of Nashville, is 24 years old and was connected to Julianne Hough in 2009, thinks Miley is "very pretty."
Might we need to prepare ourselves for... Cyrowill? We'll keep readers apprised.
When you think Gwen Stefani, what may come to mind is her two decades of success in the music industry, her sales of 40 million+ albums worldwide, a Screen Actors Guild nomination, her LAMB clothing line and a successful fragrance in her name.
But what else is truly remarkable about this beautiful and extremely talented woman is her successful marriage to fellow musician Gavin Rossdale for 14 years in a place like Hollywood where marriages often last a mere months.
Stefani graces the cover of Elle UK's April issue in which she talks about her marriage, on what drives her and oh so much more.
Here are some excerpts from the interview:
Gwen on what drives her:
"I think of myself as really lazy. My ideal day would be to never get out of bed. No one can force me to do something unless I'm passionate about it."
Gwen on marriage:"I've been with Gavin for 14 years, and, let's face it, that is a huge accomplishment. I feel so proud of that it hasnt been the easiest journey."
Gwen on make-up:"I wear make-up every single day; I like to wear make-up for Gavin and I don't feel energized till I've put it on, then I'm ready to go."
Gwen on modesty:"I have this real masculine-feminine thing: I'm not really that sexy I get all made up and then I like to be a tough girl. I didn't even wear high heels until I was in my thirties! To me, [stripping off] is so boring."
The Shameless star talks about playing the unglamorous Fiona on her hit Showtime series thats just been picked up for a second season, plus questions from our Twitter followers.
Marketers Beware: Charlie Sheen Now as Unappealing as Bristol Palin, Barry Bonds
Marketers Beware: Charlie Sheen Now as Unappealing as Bristol Palin, Barry Bonds
The former "Two and a Half Men" star's awareness has been boosted by his recent media tour, but his appeal score has dropped 18 percent, according to Marketing Arm's Davie Brown Index.
Marketers beware. Charlie Sheen may be able to command the worlds attention with his frequent rants and self-described tiger blood, but that doesnt mean brands should get into business with him.
In light of the recent media maelstrom and his eventual firing from CBS top-rated comedy Two and a Half Men, we turned to the Marketing Arms Davie Brown Index, an independently conducted survey that brands and ad agencies alike use to determine a celebritys influence, to see how Sheen is currently faring.
While Sheens awareness has shot up he is now better known than Robert DeNiro, Clint Eastwood and Sean Connery his appeal score plummeted 18 percent, putting him at 2,646th among the 2,690 stars the company measures. For perspective, that places him in the same neighborhood as Bristol Palin, Barry Bonds and controversial Redskins owner Daniel Snyder.
As for his trust score, a similarly important metric for marketers considering signing Sheen for an endorsement gig, he currently ranks 2,680th on the DBI index. That puts him in the same range as Courtney Love, Omarosa Stallworth and The Hills bad boy Spencer Pratt.
Finally, when sized up on DBIs aspiration scale, Sheen now comes in at a dismal 2,687th. He is joined in that bottom-of-the-barrel range by Amy Winehouse, Lindsay Lohan and Monica Lewinsky.
'Bachelor' Host Chris Harrison Stands Up for Michelle Money
'Bachelor' Host Chris Harrison Stands Up for Michelle Money
Michelle Money on 'The Bachelor.' (ABC)
When "Bachelor" host Chris Harrison said Michelle would blow people's minds, he was right, as she found herself the center of the Women Tell All attack. Even Harrison admits she was falling apart, and as much as the show plays to the drama, "sometimes enough is enough." Harrison shares with TVGuide.com why Shawntel never made it into the "hot seat" and why he loves the new Ashley H.
Where do we begin with Michelle? Chris Harrison: Three-quarters of the people seem to be happy [that I comforted her] and then there's a small faction that's like, "You stuck up for her. You fell for it." What I felt I needed to do was calm everybody down. ... In the middle of the commercial break I had to get her more Kleenex. She was absolutely falling apart. At the same time Stacey and other girls are going nuts, and didn't even break a stride. At one point I'm looking at them, like: Really, what the hell's wrong with you? I don't mind you jumping on board or stirring things up, but just wait to make it a fair fight. People always think we always want the drama, but sometimes enough is enough.
It seemed like Stacy just wanted TV time. Harrison: She didn't even really know Michelle that well; she just watched the show with the rest of us. Whether you like Michelle or not ... when she jumped on Brad's lap never once did I hear Brad complain. Everything she did from the moment she stepped out of the limo absolutely played Brad perfectly and the other girls; of course, they were intimidated and jealous.
How come we didn't hear from Shawntel at all? Harrison: She was scheduled to sit with me in the hot seat, but things got so crazy and out of hand with Michelle that we did another segment with her. Also, with Shawntel, we felt like you saw everything [during her final episode] and there was no lingering question. With Ashley H there was a question out there and with Ashley S a moment to be resolved.
Were you surprised to see Ashley H doing so well despite being the last eliminated? Harrison: Ashley H had a phenomenal attitude. I didn't expect her to come in heartbroken and devastated and I think she assimilated the whole thing pretty quickly and moved on. Whether she finally admitted it or not, she was in love with Brad, but I don't think anybody wants to admit they were in love with somebody who dumped them. But I think she was, and I think she learned a lot from it. I love the new woman.
Do you still see her as a likely Bachelorette? Harrison: Ashley H, as far as fans go, is a big front-runner. Everyone has sympathy for Ashley S, but from what I can tell from the fans, they're not clamoring for her ... She's one of those girls you just want to hug and tell her it's going to be OK and you hope she will get that self-esteem. That's the only thing she's lacking is the self-esteem a beautiful girl like her should have.
Give us a hint about next week's finale. Harrison: For Brad to come out and say, "I'm in love and this girl has changed my life," doesn't do justice to what he's going to go through in the two hours you'll see next week. I don't think it's as simple and easy as people might be thinking. It's safe to say, there will be tears.
Sources connected with Lorre tell us the mega-producer has been holding internal meetings about keeping the show going. Various options have been discussed, and they have a short list of replacements for Charlie's character.
Our sources say Lorre's people, as well as honchos from Warner Bros., have been in touch with Rob's agent at William Morris-Endeavor, talking about Rob possibly coming onboard.
There are two stumbling blocks for Rob -- he currently stars in "Parks and Recreation," and he grew up with the Sheen family.
No decisions have been made yet, but it looks like there's a real interest in keeping "Men" alive.
Despite labeling his past two episodes Torpedoes of Truth and calling them sermons, Charlie Sheen is now trying to claim his new Ustream show Sheens Korner is entirely fictional after finding out Brooke Mueller planned to use them as evidence in their custody battle. Whoops! #PlanBetter RadarOnline reports:
Its a character in a piece of fiction. Think Lenny Bruce or the Mitchell Bros. Its part of my shtick. As we previously reported, Muellers legal team of Sorrell Trope and Lori Howe will use that webcast to make an argument that the embattled actor is spiraling out of control. Responding to that, Sheen told RadarOnline.com: OK, well they should use Two and Half Men to say I am a drunk and sleep with wh*res. Thats all I am gonna say. Thats my answer. Bring it. Its so f*cking stupid, if thats the best theyve got.
First off, Im pretty sure Charlies last Dateline interview covers that part about sleeping with whores, and as for this being the best theyve got, I dont think it gets any better in a custody battle than video evidence of a violent drug addict saying he wants to cut the throats of children. So now Charlie has to decide: Is he delivering pure warlock truth to his followers or is he trying to hawk Tiger Blood T-shirts by pretending hes imparting winning knowledge? I understand the people who still worship him at this point are technically retarded because even the libertarians realized this shit is getting ridiculous and this was like porn to them, but eventually he either has to actually decapitate an enemy or somehow land a job that pays as much or more than Two and a Half Men to prove he had the best plan all along. Otherwise, congratulations, youre just another junkie who got fired from his job, except with a million Twitter followers because people want to laugh at you spectacularly killing yourself in a fit of crazy talk. (Ive got twenty on his last words being Minotaur balls.)
Summer doesn't officially kick off until June, but "Fast Five" is doing its best to speed things up.
The fifth entry into the "Fast and Furious" franchise arrives on April 28, 2011, promising all the fast cars, tough mercenaries and adrenaline-packed action sequences we've come to know and love from the series. But even though the release date is just a few short weeks away, "Fast Five" really can't come soon enough so we're going to have to settle on a new trailer to tide us over.
Yahoo has the first look at the newest "Fast Five" trailer, delivering on all the thrills, explosions and beat-downs we've come to expect from this cast of characters. Director Justin Lin brings things to a boil with the latest installment of the "Furious" series, gathering its most prominent players including Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Ludacris and Tyrese all under the same roof. The reason: to pull off a job worth $100 million in reward, a job that requires some of the strongest and stupidly courageous criminals available in the business.
But as Tyrese's Roman Pearce explains it, this isn't just mission impossible it's mission in-frickin'-sanity, all thanks to an eternally badass FBI agent played by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, a man who is tireless in his search to bust Dom, Brian and their crew for good. Something tells us we're going to have a hard time figuring out who to root for even though we all know that the audience is the real winner in this fight!

Gossip Cop reached out to a rep for Wentz about the musicians petition, but has yet to hear back. Well update when more information is available.

Ben Affleck Visits Congress For a Good Cause With Cindy McCain
Ben Affleck and Cindy McCain joined forces on Good Morning America today to raise awareness about the Eastern Congo Initiative. The pair have partnered up to take the cause to Congress and urge lawmakers to help Congolese woman and children in need this afternoon, just in time for International Women's Day. Check out a live feed of the hearing, which is happening now, to see Ben and Cindy speak.
She's a new mother, she has a new figure and she's starring in a new movie.
Indeed, Jennifer Hudson has come a long way since American Idol. In the latest issue of Essence, the singer/actress touches on all these topics and more...
On motherhood: My wish is to be at least half as good as my mother was, as patient and as loving as she was, and to just give that to my son.
On her new body: I didnt realize that so many people were watching me or that so many people were interested. Now people come up to me saying, Youve inspired me, and Im like, Wow.
On portraying Winnie Mandela on the big screen: We were supposed to shoot the film two years ago. But with all that happened in my life, they waited. Even the director was saying, For you to take this project on with everything that happened shows you are really passionate about it. So I just hopped into it. I just really wanted to be a part of telling the story.
Nina Dobrev Talks Fame and Those Pesky Ian Somerhalder Rumors to Teen Vogue
Nina Dobrev Talks Fame and Those Pesky Ian Somerhalder Rumors to Teen Vogue
As if we werent already envious of Nina Dobrev, the coolest girl on The Vampire Diaries landed next months cover of Teen Vogue. And though she looks beyond gorgeous, she insists shes just like you and me.
She told the mag,I just feel like a normal girl, and the whole concept is very odd to me. But other people, like Ian [Somerhalder, costar and rumored-boyf], have had that experience before, so theyre like, Yeah, this is what happens; theres nothing you can do about it.
Speaking of Ian, the mag of course asked if the rumors of them dating were true. What did Nina say? Read on to find out, plus watch a behind-the-scenes video of her Teen Vogue shoot!
On Ian Somerhalder: We expected the rumors. Like, if I wasnt dating Ian, Id be dating Paul. A lot of people who work together end up dating, so it wouldnt be unusual, but Ive never dated anyone Ive worked with.
On her crazy work sched: By the time I get home, memorize the next days work, brush my teeth, remove all the makeup, and shower to get the blood off, and then I have to be back at work in seven hours. I can only do so much.
On growing up: I wanted to be the jock, and I wanted to be a dancer and actress. I was also a gymnast and very academically driven. I always had a lot on my plate and was really overwhelmed. Not much has changedIm constantly trying to one-up myself and raising the stakes.
As soon as 2011 began, of course, Famous reported that Stewart and Pattinson were engaged.
The tabloid prints so many rumors about Stewart, youd think theyd get one right by sheer accident at some point.
That moment hasnt arrived.
According to the latest issue, the reluctant leading lady of Breaking Dawn has buckled under the pressure and is partying the stress away.
Kristens been drinking a lot recently, alleges a Famous source who goes on to explain that the actress starts each day exhausted and hung over.
A Pattinson friend claims Stewart is clearly struggling to cope and that her behavior is getting more and more out of control.
Stewart is so worn down, claims the magazine, its even becoming hard for the films make-up artists to keep her looking fresh.
She comes in most days looking pale, with huge circles under her eyes, explains a so-called insider. Shes not been eating properly either and her face is starting to look gaunt and hollow.
Actually, its this entire story thats hollow not surprising, considering the source.
Month after month, year after year, Famous takes shots at Kristen Stewart. When she wasnt partying, it was because she was aloof and alienated. That narrative fell flat. So now shes supposedly partying too much, and were expected to believe its because she cant handle Breaking Dawn a movie Famous told us she wasnt going to make in the first place.
A source assures Gossip Cop that Stewart isnt an out-of-control party animal off the set.
Its clear that Stewart cant help but run afoul of Famous because Famous cant help but run afoul of the facts.
The tabloid does have one thing in common with Stewarts Bella Swan both inhabit fictional worlds.
Forget Grandma's house. The hot pit-stop last night for "Red Riding Hood" was Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, where the stars walked the carpet for the premiere of director Catherine Hardwicke's fairy-tale redo. Unsurprisingly, stunning scarlet seemed to be the dress code for the affair.
Red, herself, Amanda Seyfried showed off her mile-long legs in a maroon Lanvin mini dress, which she paired with nude heels and a messy up-do. Sure, it wasn't red exactly, but we're dubbing this "Red Riding Hood for the 21st century." Tres chic. Out supporting her former "Twilight" director Catherine, Nikki Reed slinked onto the carpet in a slightly more subdued sweetheart-neckline mini-dress with sheer black underpinning and what looked to be a forest-friendly camouflage-patterned top-layer.
No stranger to things that go bump in the night, "Vampire Diaries" star Katerina Graham flaunted a sultry strapless red bustier maxi dress. Though the color was pitch-perfect against Kat's skin tone, the dress would have been better suited without all those extra swathes of gauzy fabric, which made it kind of look like a maternity dress (we're 99.99 percent sure Kat has nothing to hide...). Also working red was "Sucker Punch" starlet Emily Browning, who wore a shiny satin mini dress. Though it could have done with a bit of eye-catching embellishing, the look was simple, cute and flattering.
While the ladies largely stuck to a consistent style (red and/or short), the "Red Riding Hood" men definitely diverged in the woods. Cutie Max Irons opted for a handsome black suit topped off with a black tie (and tie clip...fancy!), which gave him quite the debonair air. His co-star Shiloh Fernandez, on the other hand, went much more casual (sans tie) in a blue button-up and gray suit, with his pant legs tucked into a pair of lace-up boots. The horror! While we'll give him a few points for channeling his woodsman character with his footwear, we can't condone such sloppy finishing on the red carpet. Call us if you need some style tips next time, Shiloh!
Ghosts Set To Cause Trouble On âTrue Bloodâ; Alexander Skarsgard Talks Ericâs Big Changes
Ghosts Set To Cause Trouble On True Blood; Alexander Skarsgard Talks Erics Big Changes
LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
It looks like Godric wont be the only ghost heading to Bon Temps in Season 4 of True Blood a hauntingly tough time is in store for fans of the shows favorite still-going vampire/human couple Jessica and Hoyt.
According to Jim Parrack, who plays baby vamp Jessicas boyfriend Hoyt, spirits are set to cause trouble for the newly domesticated pair.
Could be, yeah. Could be, Jim said when Access Hollywood asked about ghostly creatures joining the fray on the red carpet at PalyeFest2011. Somethings up with the house.
Alan Ball, creator of the HBO series, inspired by Charlaine Harris Sookie Stackhouse novels, also confirmed ghosts were on their way.
Ghosts, witches, he said of new creatures on their way to the pulpy drama. Everything else weve already met, but there will be new werewolves, new shifters, new vampires. Yeah, ghosts and witches are the new ones, mostly.
It appears Arlene Fowlers half-human, half otherworldly creature baby will also create havoc.
Yes, theres gonna be a problem that grows exponentially, Arlenes portrayer, Carrie Preston, told Access. Its not gonna be what you think. So Arlene is definitely dealing with having to face something thats a little bit bigger than whats shes used to.
While much has been made about the witches being introduced in Season 4, one of the big plot lines will follow Alexander Skarsgards Eric Northman, who loses his memory.
I dont think its a secret that he gets amnesia this season, Alexander told Access. A witch casts a spell and he doesnt know who he is.
I dont want to reveal too much, but hes kind of like a very big baby suddenly, he doesnt know who he is and he needs protection suddenly and you havent seen that before, the tall Swede added.
The first time fans saw Eric in Season 3, he was in a dungeon sans clothing, but despite such racy material, Alexander said he hasnt yet read a script that was too sexy for his own tastes as an actor.
No, I havent had a moment like that yet, where I go, Its a little too much, he said with a grin. I kind of dive in head first and I love it all.
Anna Paquin also said she isnt worried about the sexy scripts, but her real life husband, Stephen Moyer, who plays Bill Compton, said hes had an eye-raising moment once or twice.
Theres a little moment when you do think, My mum, sitting at home, is going to be watching me do a what? What? he laughed.

Charlie Sheen on Child Custody Battle: "Cooler Heads Will Prevail"
Charlie Sheen on Child Custody Battle: "Cooler Heads Will Prevail"

Is there a détente between Mr. Adonis and his ex?
A day after Charlie Sheen celebrated his firing from Two and a Half Men by waving a machete atop a roof in downtown L.A., an expected court hearing in his child-custody spat with Brooke Mueller was indefinteily postponed, according to the 45-year-old actor's attorney.
"No court today," Sheen's legal eagle Mark Gross tells E! News.
What magical warlock spell was at work? Here's what Sheen has to say.
At home prepping for his latest online rant tonightin which he plans to deliver his "manifesto" Sheen exclusively tells E! News that "cooler heads have prevailed" in his tyke tug-of-war with Mueller and that the duo seem to have sorted out their problems for now.
The same goes for his two daughthers with Denise RichardsSam, who turns 7 tomorrow, and Lola, 5.
"Denise is lovely," he tells us.
Gross declined to elaborate on any sort of deal Sheen and Mueller may have hammered out ("I'm hoping I will have more to say later," he tells us), but one of the sticking points had been Brooke's insistence that a third-party monitor keep an eye on the kids while they're with Charlie.
Last week, Mueller obtained a restraining order against him and got a judge to order the couple's 2-year-old sons, Bob and Max, handed over to the care of her mother, Moira Fiore.
The twins had been staying with Sheen at his "goddess"-infested Mulholland estate, aka Sober Valley Lodge.
A hearing in that case is set for March 22provided the trolls don't intervene.

Amanda Seyfried and Robert Pattinson have the two hottest mag covers out right nowand notice how we didn't say sexiest?
Seriously, what's with the strange movement where smokin' hot A-listers are paired with mood-killing critters? Crocodile DunPattinson came out last week, and now Elle's April cover story features the gorgeous Seyfriedalong with a goat, a cat and a goose, just to name a few.
But unlike our beloved Rob, who barely touched on his "traumatic" relationship with Kristen Stewart, Amanda let loose on her past Hollywood men!
Did you know she even dated one of our fave vamps?
"We dated. He's superfunny, but I was too involved with Dom."
Dom meaning Dominic Cooper, her ex who not only cheated on her with Lindsay Lohan in Cannes (this is a fact folks, trust) but apparently put the gorg blonde through hell before.
"I was just kind of foolishly thinking that the two of them were done and Dom and I were involved," Seyfried candidly dished about Dom and what she thought was his ex. "But we weren't really as involved as I thought. So I got my heart broken pretty hard."
Pictures and animal pairings aside, we loved what Seyfried had to say. Hollywood needs to be more open sometimes at kissing and telling!
She's hardly parading for the paparazzi every chance she gets, but we think celebs personal lives are fair game during a sit down like this.
As for her recent fling Ryan Phillippe? Babe nailed that answer, too.
"Um, yeah. I've been 'seen' with him," she said.
Are we the only ones who were kind of won over by her openness? Hearted the babe before, but this attitude is totally refreshing for us to see in Hollywood. Don't you think?

Celine Dions Twin Boys Were Baptized in Sin CityFun!
Celine Dion adorable twins Nelson and Eddy have been baptized in a glitzy Las Vegas ceremony.
Celine Dions 4-month-old boys, Nelson and Eddy, were bundled up in flowing Dior baby gowns and blessed on Sunday, March 6 in a traditional Greek baptism at Las Vegas St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church.
The singers representative tells People.com the Melkite Greek Catholic blessing which honored Celines husband Réne Angélils heritage was a beautiful, traditional family ceremony.

Prince William, Kate Middleton Check Out Westminster Abbey's Orchestra
Prince William, Kate Middleton Check Out Westminster Abbey's Orchestra
Prince William and Kate Middleton
With the Royal Wedding just around the corner, Britain's most-watched couple made a discreet visit to Westminster Abbey Monday night the first joint appearance by Prince William and Kate Middleton at the chapel set to serve as backdrop to their nuptials.
The visit's purpose? Sorting out the musical arrangements for the April 29 ceremony.
William, 28, and his bride-to-be, 29, alongside the groom's father, Prince Charles, arrived in a dark blue Jaguar around 8 p.m. Once inside, the trio sat in a pew a few rows from the altar while a full orchestra and a boy's choir rehearsed.
They "listened to some of the music that will be played at the wedding, but not all of it," a senior royal source tells Britain's Express newspaper. "The orchestra also had a few pieces that they had wanted the bride and groom to hear."
The couple were advised by Prince Charles, who has "always taken a close interest in classical and church music," the source says, and they will have chosen which music will be used and which they wanted to omit.
"They looked relaxed and seemed to enjoy themselves," says the source. "They are obviously very keen that everything should be right on the big day."
Pete Wentzdoes NOT want his soon-to-be-ex wife Ashlee Simpsonto get primary physical custody of their 2-year-old son Bronx -- as she's requested -- and now he's taking her on in court ... TMZ has learned.
Wentz just filed legal papers in response to Ashlee's divorce petition ... asking the judge for JOINT physical and legal custody of their son. In her divorce petition, Ashlee checked the box that indicated she wanted primary physical custody.
According to the docs, filed in L.A. County Superior Court and obtained by TMZ, Wentz also wants each party to pay their own legal fees ... even though Ashlee asked the court to make Pete foot the bill for both sides.
And while Ashlee didn't specify the official break-up date in her papers -- Pete says the two called it quits on Feb. 9 ... just days after Pete came home from a wife-less trip to Dallas for the Super Bowl.

Don't mess with Snow White.
Especially if Kristen Stewart is playing her...
As you may have heard, the Twilight starlet is in final negotiations to take on the fairest of them all role in Snow White and the Huntsman.
"I love it," Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke told us last night at the Hollywood premiere of her new flick, Red Riding Hood. "She's going to be a bad ass, learning how to hunt. That is perfect for Kristen!
"She's an athlete," Hardwicke continued. "She's a kick-ass chick. She's going to do good in that."
On Lady Gaga's 2009 smash The Fame Monster, the eccentric star hooked up with one of the fiercest ladies in the game when she and Beyoncé got their party on for the club anthem "Telephone." The singers then appeared together in an over-the-top music video in which they played a Quentin Tarantino-esque version of Thelma and Louise.
As the May 23 release date of Gaga's latest musical opus Born This Way draws near, the singer's little monsters are wondering if the star has secured any A-list talent for a collaboration on the new album.
In a recent radio chat, Gaga revealed that she's not planning on having anyone guest on Born This Way, according to Digital Spy. "I want to stand on my own two feet. I've already collaborated with my favorite female in the business," she teased. "We'll see how I'm feeling when I'm wrapping up the album."
With the anticipation for the record so high, fans are beginning to piece together the puzzle of BTW. Reported lyrics for her second single, "Judas," have already hit the Internet. On the track, Gaga waxes poetic about a lover whom she loves more than he loves her.
"Judas/ You never ever never/ Ever really ever loved me more, than I/ But Nemesis is watching over-high," she reportedly sings. "And this is your time/ Judas, lie on lie, write/ Tears drop 'cause I cry/ The echo truth killed you so you may finally die."
Lyrics for another BTW track, "Government Hooker," also reportedly found their way onto the Internet. A remix of the song debuted last week at the Thierry Mugler fashion show in Paris.
On the song, Gaga sings, "We had our night/ Our real nature/ No more time to decide/ Let it climb, let it ignite/ I can be cool/ I can be anything/ I'll be your everything/ Just touch me baby."
Avril Lavigne covered Kesha's Tik Tok hit in the Radio 1 Live Lounge. The song sounds a lot different the way Avril performed it. She slowed it down. "Tik Tok" doesn't sound as good without Kesha's edginess. Take a look:
Just one day after Collins's rep told PEOPLE that the former Genesis frontman has no intention of retiring, the musician himself addressed recent rumors about future of his career, in a message posted on his Web site Tuesday.
"Many of the articles printed over the last few months have ended up painting a picture of me that is more than a little distorted," Collins, 60, writes. "Therefore, I would like to add my comments and try to explain again my reasons for calling it a day."
Collins knocks reports that he's leaving the music scene over bad reviews, mistreatment by the media or because "I don't feel loved." Instead, he says, "I am stopping so I can be a full time father to my two young sons on a daily basis."
After thanking his "very large fanbase that loves what I do," the Grammy-winning musician adds that he's not some "tormented weirdo who thinks he was at the Alamo in another life."
Reiterating his gratefulness to fans for their well wishes, he adds, "It means a lot that you care. But there's no need for the straitjacket!"
Collins does not refer to any health issues, which have been reported as why he's taking a break from work. An article in FHM magazine cites a dislocated vertebra, lost hearing and nerve damage as fueling Collins's decision to quit music.
"Stoker" is a secretive project, to say the least, but the cat or, should we say, the bat might finally be out of the bag.
The Daily Mail has a very matter-of-fact report stating that Firth is playing a vampire in "Stoker." We already knew that "Stoker" centered on a young woman (Wasikowska) who is visited by her estranged uncle (Firth) after the death of her father, but if Firth is playing a literal blood-sucker, that's taking things to a much darker place than we originally expected.
And it's going to get very dark indeed if there's truth to this report. The Daily Mail details some of the violence contained within "Stoker," scenes that would require Firth to stab one victim in the neck with a pair of scissors while beating another to death with a tree branch. And here we were thinking that fangs were deadly enough on their own!
Let's wait and see how "Stoker" progresses before outright labeling it as a vampire movie, but for now, we're even more intrigued about a project we were already tremendously excited for. The stuttering king turned crimson-stained monster? Just tell us where to buy our tickets and we'll be there!

The Perp: Katy Perry, at Jean-Charles de Castelbajac's prêt-à-porter show in Paris
Ooh la la, the singer may be trying a little too hard to get into character with this Smurfette takes the City of Light look during French Fashion Week. (She's the voice of the female Smurf in the animated movie hitting theaters this August.) On its own merits, this Gallic-inspired tunic dress is très chic, but would it have killed Katy to go as herself?
What do you think of Perry's follicular nod to the little blue people? Write a clever caption below and we'll post our favorite here and on our Facebook page.
When the $65 million Broadway mega-production 'Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark' was entrusted to Julie Taymor, it seemed like nothing could go wrong. The Tony Award-winning director of the enormously successful 'The Lion King' was essentially a fail-safe to lead the biggest musical production in Broadway history. And with a score by living rock legends U2's Bono and The Edge, the show's destiny as a wild success seemed set in stone.
But Taymor's genius vision took on a life of its own before the first rehearsal even started, before the first nail was ever hammered into the set. One near-bankruptcy, one major cast overhaul, five delayed openings, four cast injuries (one nearly fatal) and a slew of scathing reviews later, the production looks nowhere near ready for its March 15 opening. And, according to The New York Times, the producers are in talks for a major creative overhaul, which might even include saying goodbye to Taymor.
According to anonymous sources, the negotiations, which took place on Monday, involved expanding Taymor's team so she has more creative support. There was also talk of rewriting the script and score and, once again, setting a new date for its release. But the most drastic piece of information to emerge from the talks was the possibility of Taymor walking away.
Taymor, who was initially recruited by Bono and The Edge when the duo first came up with the idea for the superhero musical, has been their creative partner from the get-go. Despite admitting that the production is flawed, she has asserted that it's headed in the right direction. But if the producers' ideas, or, more likely, demands, for improvements don't align with Taymor's ambitious vision, they have no qualms about showing her the door.Tweet
A court battle between Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller would destroy both of them, with a wealth of dirty secrets spilling into the public, a source familiar with the situation tells RadarOnline.com exclusively.
Sheen and Mueller have avoided court for now and both have motivation to resolve their battle privately.
A public all-out war between Charlie and Brooke will be devastating to both, the source said. They each have so much dirt on the other its amazing.
People think theyve heard everything about Charlie but they havent. And Brooke knows his worst secrets and hasnt unloaded them yet.
Mueller obtained a restraining order against Sheen, revealing an anti-Semitic text she says he sent and various violent threats.
But theres much, much more.
Charlie has done things with Brooke that the public doesnt know about. Im talking about in the arena of sex and drugs, and these things are shocking, even for Sheen, the source said.
As the parents of twin boys, Charlie and Brooke both have to be careful about the accusations they throw at each other. Their marriage involved bringing in outside sex partners and doing a lot of drugs.
Sheen showed RadarOnline.com evidence of Brookes relapse during the recent trip to the Bahamas before Charlie was canned from Two and a Half Men. Brooke, who has been in rehab many, many times, admitted she relapsed but says she is sober now.
Both sides need to work out a deal without going to court, the source said. Otherwise things are likely to get even worse for both Charlie and Brooke.
Kate Winslet is featured in the latest issue of British Vogue, covering the publication and speaking on her recent split from Louis Dowler.
"Experiencing those moments of being alone... is a very, very weird flooring and exposing position to be in when you're just not used to it. But I've never been lonely," she says and...
... who cares?!? Winslet has chopped off her hair and dyed it a light shade of yellow! Check out the new look below and vote on it now:
Lily Allen Talks Miscarriage, Eating Disorder in New Documentary
Lily Allen Talks Miscarriage, Eating Disorder in New Documentary

The last we heard from Lily Allen, she was lashing out at Kanye Westvia Twitter over his own insensitive tweet on abortion.
The British singer, who miscarried her second baby in two years last fall, called Kanye's comments "wrong on so many levels."
Now, Allen is stepping outside Twitter and opening up about her misfortune in a new U.K.-produced documentary called Lily Allen: Riches to Rags, in which she also reveals she suffered from a serious eating disorder and used to purge after meals.
The Channel 4 doc, filmed over seven months from March until October of last year, shows a tearful, vulnerable Allen, who talks about her sadness over losing her second child six months into her pregnancy last year, reports the U.K's Daily Mail.
"It was a really long battle, and I think that kind of thing changes a person," she says in the interview.
The 25-year-old also admits that her incredible weight loss was the result of an eating disorder. "I used to vomit after meals," she said. "It's not something I'm proud of. But, I tell you what, a lot of people came up to me telling me how great I looked and I'd be on the cover of every magazine."
Despite the praise, Allen said she wasn't happy on the inside and finally realized she was "a pop star, not a model."
"I thought I looked good and it was great to be able to try on clothes and feel a million dollars. But I wasn't happy, I really wasn't," she said. "I would love to be the skinniest minniest person in the world but I can't do that without being unhappy. I like food. Don't make me feel s--t for not being really skinny and having an eating disorder."
There is a silver lining to all of Allen's suffering thoughshe is now engaged to building company owner Sam Cooper, with the two set to wed later this year. The duo have been dating since 2009 and Cooper popped the question last Christmas, a month after they lost their baby.
Allen was back in the spotlight this week after she attended the Chanel show during Paris Fashion Week and visited Karl Lagerfeld's studio. The eccentric designer is making her wedding dress.
The documentary also delves into Allen's love of fashion, and shows her at the Covent Garden vintage boutique store she co-owns with her sister.

Duchess Fergie: Sorry for Accepting $24,000 From Pedophile
Duchess Fergie: Sorry for Accepting $24,000 From Pedophile
The Duchess has done it again.
It's another royal flub for Sarah Ferguson.
The disgraced Duchess admitted to taking money from U.S. businessman Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender who spent 13 months in prison for soliciting an underage prostitute in 2008.
The $24,000 payout came immediately after the ex-con, who has settled more than a dozen cases out of court, vacationed with her ex-husband Prince Andrew.
This follows last year's scandal in which the then bankrupt Ferguson was caught setting up access to the Prince in exchange for money.
"I personally, on behalf of myself, deeply regret that Jeffrey Epstein became involved in any way with me," she told London's Evening Standard newspaper. "I abhor pedophilia and any sexual abuse of children and know this is a gigantic error of judgment on my behalf."
As for getting her ex involved in yet another sordid mess, she said, "Once again my errors have compounded and rebounded and also inadvertently impacted on the man I admire most in the world, the duke. He has supported me and come to my rescue again and again and there is absolutely nothing that I would not do for him."
Several more castmembers from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn have made way to Vancouver, including Judi Shekoni ("Zafrina" - Amazonian Coven), Tinsel Korey ("Emily Young"), Guri Weinberg ("Stefan" - Romanian Coven), and others. By now it's pretty much a full house in British Columbia. As expected filming picked back up this week, though the weather was no better where costuming was concerned, at least for one castmember.
Ashley Greene ("Alice Cullen") tweeted, "My dress I wore on set today was adorable. The weather? Not so much!! Man it's cold out!"
Even still, it's game on in Vancouver!
Meanwhile, there are a couple of news updates you'll want to know about, so here's the usual wrap-up of the latest in Twilight news.
For starters, Lee Pace ("Garrett" - American Nomads) has been chatting about Breaking Dawn and his co-stars once again, this time with E! Online. In the interview, Pace praised Kristen Stewart endlessly, saying "Kristen hasn't lost any of that stuff that makes her special . . . People say it's quirky, but I think it is authentic. She doesn't march down these red carpets like a show monster." Like last time, he also remarked on how director Bill Condon seems to be making this leg of the Saga "cooler." Pace will be hitting Broadway again fairly soon, as he's just been added to the cast of The Normal Heart. Per The Los Angeles Times, Pace "will play closeted activist Bruce Niles."
Speaking of Breaking Dawn newbies talking about the movie, Angela Sarafyan ("Tia" - Egyptian Coven) is going to be featured in the April issue of TROIX Magazine (the same which featured Jackson Rathbone, Christian Serratos, and Kiowa Gordon in previous months), and to celebrate, she did an interview with Teen.com about her work in Breaking Dawn. "The people I'm working with are just the sweetest. When I came onto the set and saw Kristen and Rob . . . everybody is really very sweet . . . I have to say, it's a surprise. It's a real wonderful surprise," she explained. The video interview is attached.
Another video which has been attached is of Jackson Rathbone and the 100 Monkeys, who decided to make a song about the latest antics of the one and only Charlie Sheen. That video speaks for itself. A third video which has been attached is of Xavier Samuel ("Riley" in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse), in an interview he did from the set of A Few Best Men.
Finally, Vanity Fair has revealed a web exclusive tidbit about Robert Pattinson's April cover shoot, and it seems that Pattinson used some of his time in the Bayou to join a native blues band on-stage for an impromptu jam session. Sounds about right, right? Check out the full story and photo at VF.
Enjoying some downtime with her family, Vanessa Hudgens was spotted out in Studio City earlier this week.
The Beastly babe was joined by her mother Gina and sister Stella as she consumed a post-workout lunch- all three ladies donned matching black ensembles.
And though her romance with Zac Efron is in the past, Vanessa still gave him props for helping her deal with fame during a recent interview.
She explained, I had my family to keep me grounded. Im so close to my mom [an office worker] and dad [a firefighter]. Their world doesnt revolve around Hollywood. I also had (my High School Musical co-stars) to grow with, like Ashley [Tisdale] and Zac [Efron]. We all went on this journey together and had each other to fall back on. Youve got to have your friends to keep your head on straight.
Enjoy the pictures of Vanessa Hudgens out with her mom and sister in Studio City (March 4).
Lindsay Lohanis preparing to sue Kamofie & Company jewelry store -- claiming they had no right to cash in from the sale of the infamous surveillance tape ... because Lindsay never gave them the right to use her image for profit ... TMZ has learned.
Sources connected to the surveillance video tell TMZ ... Kamofie sold the rights to distribute the tape to the Associated Press for at least $40k. The AP has since struck a deal with "Entertainment Tonight" in which the show got exclusive rights to air the tape for one week.
We're told Lohan met with her lawyers today ... no word on when she plans to file the lawsuit.
UPDATE: A rep for Kamofie tells us, "We regret to hear there is trepidation by Miss Lohan in connection with the video. "
The statement continues, "We hope that everyone understands that this is beyond our control, the flood of the requests to see this video were simply too overwhelming. It was truly necessary to put it out."
Selena Gomez just debuted her brand-new single, Who Says with On Air with Ryan Seacrest this morning and JJJ has the track so you can listen!
The 18-year-old star shared with Ryan about the track, I feel like my fans need the song right now. Twitter and Facebook are really negative for me within that world is such easy access to peoples feelings, basically its to the haters-the people trying to bring you down.
Brad Singer tells Media & Telecom Conference Monday that advertisers are on board long term, but the "hardest part" will be growing the audience.
The OWN Network is a work in progress, with audience numbers expected to grow in the second half of the year as shows starring Oprah Winfrey, Rosie O'Donnell and Shania Twain debut, Discovery Communications CFO Brad Singer said Monday.
Speaking at the Deutsche Bank Media & Telecom Conference in Palm Beach, Fla., Singer said advertisers are on board long term at the Discovery-Winfrey joint-venture OWN, and the "hardest part" will be growing the audience.
The executive had similar thoughts about the Hub, Discovery's joint venture channel with toymaker Hasbro. However, with an additional revenue stream beyond advertising and subscription fees -- that being merchandise sales -- that network is self-funding, he said.
The Hub, he said, has seen "a lot of success compared to Discovery Kids," which was replaced by the Hub in October.
Singer also said that the scatter market in the fourth quarter for shows across the various Discovery networks was strong and that he sees a continuation of that trend in the current quarter.
They laughed. They cried. They called each other names. Considering how heated and weepy things got when 15 of the most memorable contestants from this season of The Bachelor reunited on a soundstage in Hollywood, it might be hard to believe there was still more that went unseen on The Women Tell All special. Here's the best of what you didn't see:
The anti-Michelle Money tirades were more intense and lasted almost twice as long in person. "I never in my life thought I would get that emotional," Money told PEOPLE backstage. "I was so upset I couldn't breathe. I never felt uglier. The whole process has been hard but tonight was my breaking point." Michelle did appreciate hearing words of support coming from the audience. "It feels redemptive to think maybe I changed a few opinions of me tonight," she said with a rare smile. "Maybe people at home will see I'm not the villain I was edited to be."
If you thought Madison's comment about not wanting to be friends insinuated that the fanged femme took issue with Michelle, you'd be wrong. She defended Michelle extensively, giving her props for being "honest from go about being there to find love not friends." Madison was also one of the women along with Alli, Ashley H., Melissa and Lisa who were thanked with hugs and hand squeezes from Michelle when she returned to her seat. "That was overly brutal," Madison said. "I would have cried too."
Brad had a much easier time at this reunion compared to the last one. "I didn't feel I did anything shady," he said. "I went in open-minded and gave everyone a shot. I let people go when I knew there was no chance at a future with them and I tried to be honest. And I fell in love so it was much easier to face them."
The Rachel vs. Melissa segment was nastier in person than it appeared on TV. Rachel's chest implants were mocked and mental disorders like ADD and OCD were bandied about to describe Melissa. When Jackie told her she should have just walked away from the drama and been the bigger person, Rachel told Jackie to go sing "Beauty and the Beast" because she was acting "so Disney." Rachel had so many zingers, it felt at times like an audition for season 2 of Bachelor Pad. "I hope they see from tonight that I would be a great candidate for that show," Rachel said. "My doctor would be happy to turn this $11,000 boob job into a $20,000 one after I win."
Rachel also had a chance to ask Brad if Melissagate was responsible for her exit. "I'm not a fan of drama and I wanted it out of the house," he said. After the show, Rachel felt vindicated: "I was happy to hear that the connection wasn't something I made up in my head, but I'm still pissed because I think that had I not gotten into the drama with Melissa, I had a real shot at the final two ... But now we'll never know thanks to that poisonous bch."
Chris Harrison did a double take when he first laid eyes on Ashley Hebert's new hairstyle. But she told PEOPLE after the show that she thought it surprised Brad more than anyone. "He didn't even recognize me, but when we hugged he said he thought it looked great a second time," she said. "I'm really happy with it. I feel like this is the natural me and I needed to refresh after this experience."
Though he was slated to direct his long-awaited adaptation of the H.P. Lovecraft horror tale this summer, it now appears that the project is off the table. Numerous reports surfaced yesterday that Legendary Pictures had successfully lured del Toro away from the Universal horror flick for "Pacific Rim," a PG-13 blockbuster featuring massive monsters and "the creation of a new world."
Whether or not "Pacific Rim" is del Toro's next film isn't entirely clear, but "Madness" is certainly finished for now. The filmmaker himself reached out to The New Yorker and revealed: "Madness has gone dark. The R did us in."
Del Toro's "Mountains of Madness" was envisioned as a big-budget R-rated horror movie, something that isn't exactly a box-office guarantee on paper. But the talent involved with the project tells another story: James Cameron, creator of the top two highest-grossing films of all time, was on board as producer, and Tom Cruise was attached to star in the movie. With those undeniable box-office draws on his side, del Toro's hopes for an R-rated "Madness" didn't seem too far-fetched.
Ultimately, it appears that Universal was unable to commit to del Toro's vision, as Collider reports that the studio officially passed on the project last Friday. It's a huge disappointment for horror fans and del Toro enthusiasts, as well as anybody who simply loves big, original movie ideas.
But the blame game is a hard one to play in this situation Harry Knowles at Ain't It Cool News has slammed Universal for shying away from such an ambitious and risky project, while Drew McWeeny at HitFix praises Universal's risk-taking moves with "Scott Pilgrim," "Paul" and others; he argues that the problem is "systemic" of the film industry at large, bigger than any one studio.
For us, we're not concerned with who's at fault, not right now. We're just flat-out disappointed that we're not going to see del Toro's "Madness" anytime soon, even if we're excited about the possibilities that "Pacific Rim" presents.
Vanessa Hudgens And Alex Pettyferâs Best Of Los Angeles
Vanessa Hudgens And Alex Pettyfers Best Of Los Angeles
Vanessa Hudgens says her latest flick Beastly, is a gothic romance thats a modern day take on Beauty & The Beast, except a bit darker and a bit sexier. It kind of leaves you with a great message to not judge a book by its cover.
Entertainment producer Kerry Maller sat down with Hudgens and co-star Alex Pettyfer to find out their favorite spots in Los Angeles. Hudgens, who plays Lindy in the film, likes Aroma Cafe because of the adjacent book shop and twinkle lights strung outside. Pettyfer, who plays Kyle, likes Los Angeles favorite In-N-Out.
As bizarre and angry as ever, Sheen recorded a late Sunday call with friend Bob Maron in which he rants about needing to overhaul his webcast to get out his message.
Im gonna write my sermons, [and] Im gonna deliver them like truth torpedoes, explains Sheen.
At various points there are references to orange juice, jumping out of a plane, his magic tray, and how his telephone is an instrument of the trolls.
After the call, Sheen spends a few minutes rambling about the expression it is what it is, certain tenets of his philosophy, and the death of his dog Betty.

Click through to cast your vote for each gorgeous gal on the red carpet.
On kissing on the silver screen: I cant lie. It didnt suck making out with Channing [Tatum] and Justin [Timberlake].
On being asked to get Botox: "I was like, Damn you! But were in Hollywood. Im on a huge screen. With these new digital cameras, you can see the peach fuzz on my face.
On how Dominic Cooper's previous girlfriend led to their breakup: I was just kind of foolishly thinking that the two of them were done and Dom and I were involved. But we werent really as involved as I thought. So I got my heart broken pretty hard. After that, its really hard to open myself up to a new person. Really hard.
On another famous ex, Alexander Skarsgård: We dated. Hes superfunny, but I was too involved with Dom.
On her reported new love Ryan Phillippe: Um, yeah. Ive been seen with him.
"Kristen hasn't lost any of that stuff that makes her special," Lee Pace, who is playing Edward's vampire BFF Garrett in the Breaking Dawn flicks, tells me. "People say it's quirky, but I think it is authentic.
"She doesn't march down these red carpets like a show monster," the former Pushing Daisies star continued. "You see these girls and they're all just like, 'I'm living the fantasy. I'm wearing $10,000 worth of clothes and jewelry.' Kristen's just not like that. Kristen is just her."
The same for Mr. Pattinson. "The thing about him that is so charming is what you see is what you get," Pace said. "He is as charming and humble and handsome as he presents himself. Totally what you see is what you get with him."
Pace also said that director Bill Condon's take on the movies is a bit more "dark" than the previous three movies. "Bill Condon is cooling up these movies," he said. "I hope that doesn't get me in trouble with anyone, but he's cool...He really is killing it with this one. He's making it cool. Bill is finding that stuff and letting it be as shocking as it can be, but stylish, too."
Pace returns to filming Breaking Dawn this week after taking a three-week vacation to India. "I wear bright red contacts," he said. "I feel so plain and boring when I take them out."
And Twilight isn't the only thing on Pace's mind these days. He also costars in Ceremony, an indie comedy from first-time director Max Winkler that hits theaters April 8, with Uma Thurman.
Pace plays Thurman's fiancé in the film while Michael Angarano (yes, Stewart's ex!) portrays a young man infatuated with her and intent on ruining their wedding plans. "Uma Thurman's pretty great!" Pace said. "Kill Bill is actually one of my all-time favorite movies. Her and Darryl Hannah beating the shit out of each other in a trailer? I love it!"
And it was just announced that Pace has joined the cast of the upcoming Broadway production of The Normal Heart with Ellen Barkinand Jim Parsons. The play focuses on the rise of the AIDS crisis in New York City from 1981 to 1984.

CLAIM: Kelsey Grammer and New Bride Kayte Walsh âAlready Fightingâ
CLAIM: Kelsey Grammer and New Bride Kayte Walsh Already Fighting
(PopEater)
Kelsey Grammer and Fourth Wife Already Fighting? reads the headline of a piece on PopEater, which goes on to claim that Grammer and his new bride, Kayte Walsh, have already stumbled upon their first rift and it involves about 2,800 miles and an ex-wife.
The site reports that an insider reveals, Kelsey wants to move back to LA to be near his daughters and start working on a new TV project with Starz But Kayte would rather stay in New York where she has close friends and is far, far away from [his ex-wife] Camille.
Really?
Nope.
Someone is making up s**t, Grammers rep tells Gossip Cop, adding that far from moving back to L.A., the couple just bought a place in New York, and Grammer begins filming next month in Chicago.
Ed Westwick smiled with Leighton Meester as they filmed scenes for Gossip Girl at the Plaza Hotel in NYC yesterday. The cast have been hard at work shooting the fourth season, and they're now up to the finale, with Blake Lively having to cut short her stay in Paris to record the last scenes. Ed has no plans to move on from the show after this season, saying: "I'm having a fantastic time. I've got a great character, a great cast, and I get to live in New York City."
Its non-stop for Katy Perry at the moment, as her California Dreams show is currently touring Europe. With Milan, Paris and Berlin on the calendar, it wont be long before shes heading over to the UK towards the end of the month.
Katys individual and quirky fashion sense always gets her photographed by the press, and we couldnt help but notice the similarity between this recent pair of sunglasses she was spotted wearing, and Polaroid Eyewears 1950 Broadway S8157B.
1950 Broadway S8157B
We wish Katy all the best for her current tour, and if you havent seen our heritage collection, Best under the sun, then youre in for a treat. Showing retro styles in the latest advanced materials and polarizing technologies, were sure youll find a pair to add to your summer wardrobe.
And while we thought the stuffed bear she carried was a nice little touch and effectively complemented her peacoat, we were nevertheless distracted by a certain accessory lodged between her lips.
After all, with Suri turning 5 next month, it seems a bit odd that she would still be using a pacifier.
In his New! magazine column, the Aussie explained: "There was a story doing the rounds last week saying that Elen and I had split up after a huge row about me not wanting to go to a party with her.
Matt Bellamy made a face in the sunshine before putting his shades on during a holiday in Mexico with Kate Hudson yesterday. Kate covered her baby bump in a white tiered dress as she stayed close to her son Ryder outside their holiday villa. There was no need for the cardi she pulled on before she left LA, and she looked gorgeous and relaxed as she showed off her growing baby bump in a bikini. This could be the last break for just the three of them, as Kate and Matt's baby is due in the summer.
Anyone who's seen him as Hannibal Lector knows just how bad he's capable of playing!
Sir Anthony Hopkins is reported to be in negotiations to play the big villain in the upcoming James Bond film, with the option to continue on into other editions in a recurring role!
A source explains:
"The only stumbling block seems to be the number of films he is signing up for. There is a chance the character they want him to play could become a regular feature, like Blofeld back in the day."
Wow! They certainly haven't done that kind of nemesis in quite some time!
But if anyone could pull it off, we have to admit, he's their best bet!
Miley Cyrus has been sending 'flirty texts' to Jared Followill of The Kings Of Leon.
A source told HollywoodLife : 'Miley wants to keep Jared interested.
'She often sends him coy text messages. So far, he is a big fan of what she has been sending.'
According to the source, they said: 'Jared loves showing off his texts from Miley. He thinks she's very pretty and is excited she's still flirting with him.'
Sophie Ellis Bextor attended the 30th anniversary of Mamas and Papas last night working a clashing ensemble. She wore a checked coat over a floral striped dress. There used to be a rule about mixing patterns, but in fashion rules are made to be broken! This got me wondering, do you like to clash prints?
The actors camp believes Lorre had Sheen terminated because of the actors numerous personal attacks on him in the media, and not due to any moral turpitude.
Marty Singer, the stars lawyer, contends its not a question of Sheens behavior, citing that Warner Bros. was more than happy to stay connected to Sheen professionally during his domestic violence case last year, according TMZ.

New Orleanss Preservation Hallwhere Annie Leibovitz shot young Robert Pattinson, shown tickling the ol 88 with the world-famous Preservation Hall bandcelebrates its 50th anniversary this year. Situated in the French Quarter, the music venue is one of the countrys most hallowed: it was founded in 1961 for the purpose of preserving New Orleansstyle jazz, and indigenous American music. On his first-ever visit to the Quarter, Pattinson jammed with the house band and thoroughly held his ownhis celebrity perhaps subsumed by that of the musicians, whose legendary status awed everyone on set. When we first started, none of us knew that Robert really does play piano, says Ben Jaffe, the tuba player (center, above), the bands director, and the son of the venues founders. But when he got up there, he started ticking out these notes, and it was obvious he wasnt just tinklinghe really knew how to play.
Though the musicians were expecting the actor to just pose, Pattinson gamely jammed along with their tunes. After finishing a song, he leaned over to Jaffe and said, Thats the first time Ive played with a group of guys like that, Jaffe recalls. Not a shabby gigespecially with Jaffes homemade red beans and rice waiting as reward.

True Blood doesnt return to HBO until June, but series star Joe Manganiello gave AccessHollywood.com a taste of what to expect on the upcoming Season 4 the hunky actor revealed there are boy-sandwiches on the menu!
Access caught up with the newly engaged actor at PaleyFest 2011 over the weekend, where he revealed that the chemistry between his Alcide character and Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) will continue to keep Bon Temps plenty steamy. He also candidly addressed those Superman movie rumors and revealed the reason why he might start tuning into Dancing with the Stars.
Theres defiantly going to be some boy-sandwiches this year, Joe said of the upcoming new season. With Sookie in the middle, for sure!
The 34-year-old actor who is now a series regular also revealed that scheduling prevented the actor from screen testing for the Superman reboot title role, a part since filled by former Tudors star, British actor Henry Cavill.
At the end of the day they wanted me to screen test and they actually asked for my measurements for the suit and everything their shoot date switched and it would have taken up 11 weeks out of my True Blood schedule, Joe explained. At the end of the day, we couldnt get the schedule to work so that I could go off and screen test. So, regrettably, I never go to screen test, I never got to put the suit on.
Joe might be in the midst of filming the new season of the hit HBO vampire series, but he told Access he might find a little time for some reality TV escapism.
I might actually have to watch an episode of Dancing with the Stars now Ive never watched an episode now that Hines [Ward] is on, Joe a big time football fan and Pittsburgh native said of the Steelers wide receiver, who is competing on the ABC reality series.
Im torn. But, I do love the man, Joe added Whats great is that hell out here in LA filming, so hopefully Ill be able to go down and hang out with him.

After recently being a guest on George Lopez's Lopez Tonight over on TBS, last Friday Anne Heche dropped by CBS' The Talk, where illuminated ladies such as Julie Chen, Sara Gilbert and Sharon Osborune discuss a range of cultural topics. As you can imagine, Anne fit right in.
You can watch the full episode with Anne here, where she discusses the trial of being a mom, her past films, and of course, her hilarious role as Joan "O-Fox" Ostrowski-Fox in CEDAR RAPIDS. But, by far the best part of the episode was when Anne was challenged to a grocery-bag-off by former supermarket clerk Julie Chen--and well, the results speak for themselves. Thank goodness Anne took up acting, is all we have to say on the matter:
CEDAR RAPIDS is in theaters now, check our Theater Post for the skinny on where it's showing!
Demi Lovato took to her Facebook page to thank her fans for all the support shes received through her treatment and recovery. She is looking happy, healthy and ready to get her life back to normal.
Mike DeStefano, Former Last Comic Standing Finalist, Passes Away
Mike DeStefano, Former Last Comic Standing Finalist, Passes Away
Mike DeStefano, a finalist in 2010 on Last Comic Standing, has passed away. The 44-year old suffered a heart attack last night, just days before he was scheduled to anchor the one-man show A Cherry Tree in The Bronx in NYC.
The Bronx native finished fourth on the stand-up-based reality show last year. DeStefano, who was HIV positive, had overcome such obstacles in his life as drug addiction and the death of his wife.
A recovering heroin user, DeStefano was working as drug counselor in Florida when he offered to entertain the audience at a convention over a decade ago. He earned a positive response and his career took off from there.
In Bradley Cooper's new superhuman film, "Limitless," his character, Eddie Morra, is transformed from unemployed writer to golden boy after taking the environmental drug NZT. Co-starring is superstar Robert De Niro, of whom Cooper said, "It was everything I could've possibly dreamed. I cherished the two weeks I had him on set."
Cooper admitted he would probably do the same thing his character did if NZT were real. "Learn as many languages and dialects as I could. I have a bunch of instruments in my house that I don't know how to play, so I'd probably learn those."
On the other hand, a more realistic De Niro cautioned, "What goes up must come down... you pay a price for all that stuff."
When asked if they would consider doing a sequel, De Niro declared, "It's limitless."
Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart Enjoy Date Night in Vancouver
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart jetted off to Spain well, a little piece of Spain amid the wintry gloom of Vancouver for date night on Saturday.
The couple, who are filming the Twilight movie Breaking Dawn in town, were spotted enjoying a late dinner at one of Pattinson's favorite small restaurants, the Spanish tapas bar La Bodega, downtown on Howe Street.
The pair, who were joined by costar Kellan Lutz, as well as Stewart's bodyguard and his date and three other friends, sat at a large table in the loft of the restaurant, tucked away in a corner.
After sharing a number of plates of tapas, they left around midnight and strolled back to their hotel about three blocks away with Pattinson and Stewart splitting off into one small group, and Lutz in another.
Pattinson and Stewart were both decked out almost all in black, clearly trying to keep a low profile but were in high spirits and being warmly affectionate with one another, swinging their hands back and forth and laughing.
Filming is expected to continue in Vancouver until mid-April.

Which Fashionable Lip Colour Looks Best on Julia Restoin-Roitfeld?
Which Fashionable Lip Colour Looks Best on Julia Restoin-Roitfeld?
The beautiful, and newly signed face of Lancôme, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld has been a busy bee over the past couple of weeks, especially this weekend in Paris as she made her way from Chanel to Givenchy wearing two different, yet equally show-stopping lipstick colours. This look is much more bold that what she was wearing at the Burberry Prorsum show when we chatted, and I actually really like both the soft and extreme styles on her. How about you, and if you had to choose, which is your favourite lip hue on the French fashionista?
Hall Pass and Gnomeo & Juliet came in fourth and fifth place with $9 million and $6.9 million, respectively.

Bette Midler was spotted checking out the Broadway show Priscilla Queen of the Desert Saturday night and a reader exclusively told PerezHilton.com that she was rocking out!
The reader says she was singing and dancing along to the show, but was also watching the audience very closely to see what their reactions are. (She's one of the producers of the show!)
Bette didn't have time to chat with fans though and apparently jumped from her seat and booked it to the backstage area during intermission.
The Internal Revenue Service just filed a tax lien against Pacino -- claiming he slighted the government out of $169,143.06 in 2008 and $19,140.44 in 2009 ... for a grand total of $188,283.50.
A rep for Pacino tells TMZ ... Al never intended to screw over Uncle Sam ... and blames the whole thing on his former business manager Kenneth Starr ... not the guy from Lewinsky fame ... the convicted Ponzi schemer who was just sentenced to seven years in prison for bilking a bunch of Hollywood bigwigs out of millions.
Pacino's people tell us .. Al has new management and is looking to remedy the situation ASAP.

Katie and Tom even had a recent date at an LA production of Rock of Ages, which Tom is starring in the movie adaption of alongside Julianne Hough.

The multi-talented Selena Gomez wasn't always so confident about her stunning brunet looks. "When I was younger, I wanted to be blond and blue-eyed," she told People. "Now, I love the fact that I'm half-Italian and half-Mexican and I have dark features." She highlights her luminous skin with rosy blush and shimmery pink gloss for an effect that is completely Selena. As Gomez said, "I love being who I am."

Headline makers: The sketch involved a Charlie Sheen talkshow called 'Winners! Duh!' and showed 'Charlie' and 'Lindsay' talking about fake urine samples
The Party In The USA singer played it cool as Bayer made fun of her as a parody of herself.
An over-excited fake Miley asked the singer, playing Bieber: 'Justin Bieber, I want to ask you some things. Like, what is your favourite album, and what is Canada like, and do you speak Canadian, and does Usher have to seat people at his own concert because he's an Usher, and do you really never say never, and have you gone through puberty?'
Fake Justin replied: 'All I have to say that is, uh, wink,' winking and smiling at the camera.

Hader then produced one of the 'show's sponsors,' a replacement urine sample company, telling the audience: 'I have a drug test coming up.'

But Taymor's genius vision took on a life of its own before the first rehearsal even started, before the first nail was ever hammered into the set. One near-bankruptcy, one major cast overhaul, five delayed openings, four cast injuries (one nearly fatal) and a slew of scathing reviews later, the production looks nowhere near ready for its March 15 opening. And, according to The New York Times, the producers are in talks for a major creative overhaul, which might even include saying goodbye to Taymor.
