  • Britney Spears Pulls a Hit and Run!

    If I were the owner of the car Britney Spears ran into yesterday, I wouldn’t be holding my breath for the pop tart to pay up.

    After pulling into a parking lot and clearly hitting a parked station wagon, the 25-year-old pop tart walked away without even blinking, let alone coughing up cash for the damages.

    But then again, what can we really expect from the disrespectful diva? After all, this hit-and-run artist is the same girl who supposedly stole thousands of dollars worth of clothing and accessories from OK! Magazine during her disastrous photo shoot a few weeks ago.

    TMZ.com has video footage of the former pop princess smashing into the parked car, just minutes before walking into the building without even checking to see if she had caused any damage.

    “I’m a brainiac,” Spears says after the fender bender. “What do I do? Do I tell someone?”

    But while the mother of two obviously was unperturbed by damaging the station wagon, the condition of her vehicle was another matter altogether.

    “Did I hurt my car?” she asks the paparazzi who were standing by.

    “Not bad,” she says after giving her car a glance.

    Britney then walked into the building, blithely chatting with the paparazzi, seemingly oblivious to what had just happened.

    Let’s hope that Brit went into the building to find the owner of the car so she could pay for the damage.

    Don’t count on it though. There’s about as much chance of Brit paying for the damages as there is that she’ll actually make a comeback.

    Not likely, but not completely out of the question.

    Check out the video of Britney’s hit and run at TMZ.com.

  • Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Update – Is Angie Moving Out?

    Watch out Brangelina fans, rumors of a breakup between Brad and Angie are circulating in full-force – and there’s proof to backup the speculation this time!

    According to Stuff.co.nz, Angelina is shopping for a new home without Brad. The site claims that Angelina reportedly viewed a two-bedroom house that has been described by real estate experts as a home for a “single household or small family.”

    Everyone knows that Angie won’t leave her kids, so where does she expect Brad to sleep in a home that small? Perhaps nowhere?

    Rumors of a potential breakup between the feuding couple have been spreading for months now.

    But as the weeks pass, the rumors heat up and the support to backup the rumors just keeps getting stronger.

    Last week, another public dispute between the couple sparked concern for Brangelina fans as well.

    The couple apparently got into a political debate while dining on vacation in France. According to sources, the dispute got a little too heated and Angelina reportedly threw her glass of wine in Brad’s face.

    The source claimed that “They got into a huge fight about politics. Angie was cursing at him and ended up throwing a glass of wine in his face.

    "Brad was left standing there with wine dripping down his face onto his clothes before storming off to wash up and change. He says he was absolutely disgusted by Angelina's behavior.”

    Could that send Brad over the edge? Hopefully.

    This is one Hollywood relationship I can’t wait to see end.

  • Michelle Pfeiffer gets her star on Hollywood Boulevard

    Michelle Pfeiffer may be playing evil roles in two movies this summer but she was elegant and graceful while accepting her Hollywood star yesterday.

    The Oscar nominee was inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame, joining some of the film industry’s most respected stars.

    But the 49-year-old actress didn’t spend the day patting herself on the back. Instead, Michelle took yesterday’s event as an opportunity to thank her parents for supporting her decision to become an actress.

    “She taught me that I could do anything and that I should have a career before I get married,” Pfeiffer said of her mother.

    Then, Michelle had a few words to say about her father as well.

    “[He] taught me that you can make something of yourself if you work hard.”

    Michelle, who is currently starring in the hit movie “Hairspray,” is the perfect woman to represent Hollywood on the Walk of Fame.

    Classy, respectful, beautiful and talented, there’s simply no other woman on the planet who deserves a Hollywood star more than Michelle Pfeiffer.

  • Britney Spears vs. Victoria Beckham – Whose Side Are You On?

    Look out Britney, there’s a new Brit in town.

    Regardless of who initiated the recent catfight at the cozy Italian II Sole in LA, this may be the beginning of Hollywood’s biggest smack down since the Rosie/Trump brawl.

           

    The fun started when Victoria slammed women who lacked intelligence to don panties before leaving home. Britney immediately took offence – we think it’s funny Britney immediately assumed the slur was directed at her.

    But it seems LA is smaller than we think – the rivals can’t seem to stay away from one another.

    Britney and Victoria just happened to eat at the same place for dinner, and it appears that neither of the divas condoned the other’s presence.  

    While some sources claim Spears snubbed Posh, others claim the “Spice Girl” asked to be seated a healthy distance from the former pop princess.

    Let’s hope these two get vocal! 

    When it comes to the battle of the Brits, whose side are you on?

  • Usher and Tameka Married – Finally!

    It may have taken a little longer than originally expected, but Usher and Tameka Foster have finally, and confidently, tied the knot.

    The happy couple was supposed to marry last week, but decided to postpone the wedding due to personal issues that arose in the days leading up to the wedding.

    While some sources speculated that Usher was having second thoughts about marrying Tameka, other sources claimed that it was Usher’s mom who was putting a strain on the wedding plans.

    But Tameka squashed all the rumors when she spoke to PEOPLE last week.

    Tameka told People Magazine that all the rumors were false and that the reason the wedding was postponed was because she had experienced a pregnancy scare and needed to be hospitalized just before the wedding.

    Regardless, all is well in paradise and the two lovebirds tied the knot last Friday in Atlanta.

    And while the event was scaled down considerably (the two said their vows in a lawyer’s office), they are happy to settle down and start their lives together.

    Usher and Tameka are expecting their first baby this winter.

    How long will this one last?

  • Backstreet Boys are Back – Will they Top the Charts Again?

    Backstreet’s back, alright!

    The hit band from the late 1990’s has decided to follow in the footsteps of the Spice Girls and reunite.

    But will their clever dance moves and boyish good looks skyrocket them to the top of the charts again?

    Their new song and upcoming album seem to be the perfect ingredients for a successful reunion.

    The Backstreet Boy’s new single, “Inconsolable” debuted on radio stations this weekend and is expected to pave the way for their much-anticipated comeback album.

    But what’s different about the hit band this time around?

    The Backstreet Boys have lost a member over the years.

    Kevin Richardson will not be appearing in the reunion of BSB, but the other four members are ready to hit the studio without him.

    No doubt, fans won’t be too disappointed about Kevin’s decision. After all, his dull personality and lack of good looks seemed to make him the least interesting of all the members.

    Perhaps the band will do even better without Kevin.

    The new album is expected to hit stores on October 30th.

    Can the boys top the charts again?

  • Age of Love Finale – Mark Picks Amanda Salinas

    Does age really matter when it comes to falling in love?

    That was the premise for the new reality TV show, “Age of Love” and it’s conclusion makes it clear that age does play an important role in finding love --at least for Mark Philippoussis.

    When 31-year-old Mark Philippoussis was chosen as the bachelor for the show, he had no idea that there would be women in their 40’s and women in their 20’s all competing for his love and affection.

    After a series of group and one-on-one dates, Mark narrowed the field down to two women; 25-year-old Amanda and 48-year-old Jen.

    After spending several weeks getting to know each of the women, Mark took Amanda and Jen to meet his parents.

    After meeting with his parents, Mark’s mom – who evidently played a key role in his decision making process – made it very clear that she liked Amanda.

    “I like the younger one,” said Mark’s mom, not afraid to tell him exactly how she felt.

    But the fact that Amanda was so much younger may not have had such an influence on Mark. Perhaps he just had a better connection with Amanda because of her personality.

    In my opinion, it was clear very early on that Amanda would be the one left standing in the end. Not only did Mark spend the most time with her, but every time Amanda expressed dislike for any of the other women, Mark would immediately eliminate them from the competition (remember Kelli and Jayanna?).

    Do you think age played a factor in Mark’s decision?

    If you were Mark, could you realistically see yourself falling in love and spending the rest of your life with someone who was 48?

  • Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag Lash Out at LC!

    The war of “The Hills” has begun and Spencer and Heidi are throwing punches left, right and center!

    Spencer Pratt and his new fiancée, Heidi Montag, are taking their war with LC (Lauren Conrad) to all-new heights.

    The three stars from the MTV series “The Hills” have been battling it out for a while now, but Spencer and Heidi have decided they’re through being quiet about how much they hate Lauren.

    When Heidi and Spencer were interviewed on Q102 this morning, the happy couple gave an uncensored and extremely shocking look into the lives of the battling trio.

    Heidi and Spencer took a number of shots at Lauren in the interview, defending themselves after Lauren took shots them in a 6 page spread in US Weekly.

    But that’s not even the tip of the iceberg in this battle.

    Spencer hadn’t quite finished what he needed to say in the interview, so he did what any smart person would do in this type of situation – he blogged about it.

    Spencer lashed out at Lauren on his own personal blog, calling her names like “beef curtain” and insisting that Lauren is in love with Heidi because she would ask to cuddle with Heidi in bed and would yell at her for going out with Spencer and not paying enough attention to her.

    In his blog, Spencer encourages the people who hate him to leave their comments on his site.

    We also encourage you to leave your comments here.

    Regardless of whose side you're on, we want to hear what you have to say about the ongoing battle between these three reality TV stars.

    Be sure to check out the interview on Q102 and don't miss Spencer’s message to Lauren and all his‘haters’ on SpencerPratt.com.

  • Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Breakup Update – Has Brad Had Enough?

    It seems as though there may be trouble in paradise for lovebirds – or should we say former lovebirds – Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

    A potential breakup between Hollywood’s highly talked about couple has everyone wondering just how long the relationship will last.

    Star Magazine has reported that Brad is encouraging Angie to go to rehab to gain weight.

    Over the past year, Angelina has become shockingly slim and Brad is apparently worried about her health.

    “I've always been lean and this year I lost my mom and I've gone through a lot. I have four kids and I finished breastfeeding – it's been hard to get my nutrition back on track,” Says Jolie, defending her dramatic weight loss.

    Angelina’s personal troubles, Brad’s incessant need to communicate with ex-wife Jennifer Aniston and the never-ending rumors of a potential split have turned this couple’s romance from sizzling hot to ice cold in the course of less than a year.

    But are they really headed for a breakup, or are the headlines fabricated?

    Nobody wants to believe that tabloids like Star Magazine or US Weekly actually report the truth, right?

    Fortunately – or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it – they have been correct with most of Hollywood’s biggest breakups.

    From Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey to Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Philippe, the tabloids have hit the nail on the head before anyone else, time after time.

    Could they be correct once again?

    Do you think Brad and Angie are destined for Splitsville?

  • Big Brother 8 Contestants Evict Nick – Is America Responsible?

    “Expect the unexpected” was Nick’s catch phrase in the Big Brother house, but could the 25-year-old former football player have expected to be walking out the door so soon?

    It seemed as though Nick had all the qualities of a Big Brother winner.

    He was genuine, he was strong and he knew when to keep his mouth shut (unlike a number of this season’s houseguests, aka Dick).

    So what made Nick the target of the entire household? In the words of Julie Chen, “you did America.”

    Nick’s game came to a crashing halt when the majority of the houseguests thought it was Nick who turned his back on the alliance and voted out Kail in last week’s eviction.

    Strangely enough, Nick was true to his word and it was America’s player Eric who cast the vote for Kail – because you told him to.

    Did America seal Nick’s fate?

    There’s no doubt that Nick’s time in the house was limited. After all, he had a pair of backstabbing, whiny you-know-what’s in his alliance – Danielle and Amber – who didn’t even hesitate to send him packing. 

    Hopefully karma kicks in and Amber or Danielle are next to go.

    Who do you hope wins head of household this week?

  • Tim McGraw Yells at Fan for Stealing Ring!

    Tim McGraw is following in the footsteps of his wife, Faith Hill, by yelling at fans that get out of control during the concerts they perform together.

    Earlier this week, a video was released of Faith Hill yelling at a female fan in Lafayette where she and her husband were performing on their Soul 2 Soul tour. The female fan grabbed Tim where she shouldn’t have, and Faith lit into her in front of the entire audience.

    We’ve just found out that at the same show, Tim yelled at another female fan - and had her escorted out by security - after she allegedly stole his pinky ring when he was shaking hands with fans.

    The video shows McGraw reaching out to fans as he performs on stage. When one fan grabs too hard, he realizes that his ring is gone.

    Tim then turns around and sees a girl waving her arms in the air. He asks the fan repeatedly to give him his ring back.

    Looking at the video, it’s clear that the female wasn’t sure what was going on – and for good reason.

    According to PerezHilton.com, the female Tim yelled at was not the woman who actually stole the ring. Tim eventually ended up getting his ring back from the woman who pulled it off in the first place, but he couldn’t take back the words he screamed at the other unsuspecting fan.

    There’s no word on whether or not the country singer apologized to the woman he yelled at.

    To see the video of Tim, go to People.com.

  • Nicole Richie tells Diane Sawyer: “I Owe the Baby My Life”

    Nicole Richie contends her recent drinking and driving conviction has changed her life and made her a better person.

    Nicole and her boyfriend, “Good Charlotte” singer Joel Madden, sat down with Diane Sawyer to talk about how she’s changed since she was charged with DUI last December.

    And while you’d think being sentenced to jail after pleading guilty to drunk driving would teach the young starlet a lesson, it seems as though her unborn baby is more the reason for her new perspective on life.

    Nicole revealed in the exclusive interview that she was four months pregnant with Joel’s baby.

    “I owe the baby my life,” she told Diane. “I owe this baby everything and I have a responsibility now. I'm now responsible for someone else. I need to set the right example.”

    When asked about the night she was arrested, Nicole responded with the following statement:

    “When I was getting off the off ramp, instead of making a left to get on the street, I went back on the off ramp,” she said.

    “And I was in such shock that I just stopped the car. Then, within two seconds, police were there and we got off the freeway.”

    Richie told Diane that she had been smoking marijuana and had taken Vicodin (a prescription pain killer), earlier in the day.

    The 25-year-old star insists she was unaware of the potential adverse effects of driving after smoking marijuana and taking prescription medicines.

    Shockingly, Nicole was poised and well-spoken for most of the interview.

    It seems as though pregnancy is helping Nicole grow as a person.

    Hopefully, she and Joel possess better parenting skills than Brit and Kevin.


  • Lane Garrison Speaks Out in Court – “I’m Sorry for my Behavior”

    “Prison Break” actor Lane Garrison is taking the stand today to let the world know how truly sorry he is for drinking and driving last year.

    This past May, Lane pleaded guilty to vehicular manslaughter for an incident on December 2, 2006, during which Vahagn Setian was killed. Today, he testified in front of the friends and family of 17-year-old Setian.

    Vahagn’s parents took the stand, as did Garrison’s supporters. Then, Garrison took the stand to speak for himself, and to speak about his actions on that day.

    “I relive that night every day, and I think about the bad decisions I made,” he began.

    As he continued, he directed his comments towards Vahagn’s mother and father.

    “All I can say to you is that I'm sorry. I tried to contact you every day. This PSA [public service announcement] was not a publicity stunt,” says Garrison, referring to the drinking and driving video he released earlier this week.

    “I don't want this to happen to anyone. We should think about our actions.

    “We can't bring him back, but I'm sorry for my behavior that evening and that is not representative of who I am usually.”

    At the end of the hearing, the judge had the following words to say:

    “The fact that you may have some notoriety, I don't really care. We don't have all the information. I intend to remand Mr. Garrison today to the Department of Corrections for diagnostics.”

    Looks like Lane bought himself some time.

    Do you think Lane should serve time in jail? If so, what do you think would be the appropriate sentence?

    For video's on Lane's testimony and the judge's decision, go to TMZ.com.


  • Lane Garrison Sentence Revealed Today!

    Lane Garrison is about to find out the price he will pay for drinking and driving.

    The “Prison Break” star was involved in a drinking and driving accident last December that took the life of 17-year-old Vahagn Setian.

    Garrison, who was driving the vehicle at the time of the crash, failed the field sobriety test and was considered intoxicated by police. He was arrested for DUI.

    Lane pleaded guilty to vehicular manslaughter in May of this year and is in court today to find out his sentence.

    According to TMZ.com, many people have taken the stand at the sentencing today. Perhaps the most moving was the testimony given by the parents of the victim.

    "The meaning of our lives was taken away. He was our only child," said Vahagn’s parents.

    But Vahagn’s dad was particularly upset with Garrison.

    “He's selfish. He took no responsibility. He could have come to us the next day and apologized, but he didn't.

    "He is an actor. He is acting. He killed a human being and he killed our son" he finishes.

    But Garrison also had a support system in place. Unfortunately, both of the star’s parents have passed away, so he had fellow “Prison Break” actor, Muse Watson, testify in his favor.

    "I realized what a horrible and terrible childhood he went through," he began. "This is a very selfless person. This is a person who cares about other people. This is an extraordinary young man. This is an awful case.

    "He told me, 'Muse, I'm gonna plead guilty because it's best for the family.'"

    A few more people testified in Lane’s favor before he got on the stand to speak for himself.

  • Melanie Brown vs. Eddie Murphy - Will Scary Spice Win the Battle?

    Things are about to get a lot spicier in the public war between “Spice Girl” member Melanie Brown and ex-boyfriend Eddie Murphy.

    Melanie’s lawyer, Gloria Allred, has announced that the paternity of the former couple’s four-month-old baby has “not been legally acknowledged” ─ and Mel’s not impressed.

    According to TMZ.com, Melanie has decided to file a paternity suit under seal (to keep the information as confidential as possible) in Los Angeles.

    Melanie – aka Scary Spice – has referred to Eddie’s actions over the past year as “shocking and appalling,” and she’s hoping the suit will force him to take responsibility as a father.

    Melanie had the following words to say about the paternity suit:

    “I want her [their daughter] to know that she has two parents who desire to be responsible for her during her life and who love her so much that they want to be a part of it.”

    But you can bet the paternity suit isn’t just about Eddie’s role in their child’s life.

    Brown is also hopeful that she and Murphy can settle child-support payments.

    According to the Spice Girl, Eddie hasn’t coughed up a penny for child support since their daughter was born four months ago.

    Meanwhile, Eddie has wasted no time settling into a new relationship.

    The actor recently proposed to his new girlfriend, film producer Tracey Edmonds.

    Fans are pretty much split down the middle with these two. Whose side are you on?
