So last night American Idol changed things up and only 2 of the 4 judges were able to critique each singer so they wouldn’t go over, (which they did) and OK! Magazine is reporting that the show finally realizes that they made a mistake adding Kara DioGuardi, I mean a fourth judge. So what will Idol do? They are thinking are eliminating one of them and if they who should it be? Well OK! says that is causing problems between the two female judges.
?The plan to add a fourth person backfired,? an Idol insider tells OK! about the troubles that have been mounting since Kara joined the cast at the beginning of this season. ?Now the producers are left with a tough decision: Do they go back to the original three-judge format, or leave Kara there??
With all four judges in contract negotiation ? and no ninth-season spots confirmed ? the competition has turned fierce. ?As long as the show brings in millions of viewers, everyone wants a piece of it,? says a pal of the former pop star. ?Paula wants to remain on the program for as long as Simon is involved, and Kara?s trying to stay on for as much time as possible. She wants Paula to get the ax.?
I say keep Paula and get rid of Kara. Seriously who likes Kara? I have not spoken to anyone who is like she is a great addition to the show or that they love her. Everyone I know hates her and her stupid waste of time comments.
Talking about hate and her stupid comments, I hate the new format that only two of the judges get to comment on the singers. Especially when it is just Kara and Randy Jackson, those two add nothing but time to the show.
Also something the show could do, so I would actually find out what happens at the end of Fringe is get rid of the stupid mentors. Seriously what did Quentin Tarantino add to the show yesterday? I mean he is not a singer just a fan and all he did was add useless time to the show that Simon could have used to tell these singers that they suck and why as compared to telling them to stop moving their hands. Instead of getting hasbeens that the singers never heard of to mentor them get singing coaches and don’t show me their rehearsals. Anyone with me on that? Has anyone been like OMG that mentor really added something. All they ever do is say, I am fan of so-and-so or I think they got the song or I am not sure how it will turn out. Shoot I will get to see that when they sing the song.
Now back to the singers…Lil Rounds needs to go home tonight for destroying The Rose. B!tch if you don’t the meaning of the song or the importance of it in the movie then don’t sing it and try to defend why you f*cked it up. That was Bette’s swan song in the movie and please oh please let it be hers. When it comes to the rocker chick, what was good about the song. It was boring. Justin Timberlake looking guy made a Bryan Adams song even more boring than it was. Someone explain why Gokey is so good to me? His voice is boring and songs are slower than paint drying. That song was Endless, but not Love for me. I know everyone loves Adam Lambert, but to me is just a big poser trying to be an Emo rocker when in reality he is a total Broadway star. Stop faking it and be who you are? I am saving my best for last and that is Kris Allen, he is consistently good and I hope he comes in second because winning Idol kind of hurts your career in a way.
OK! I am done ranting for now, so what did you think of last night?

Justin Timberlake has opened up to Hello Magazine about his relationship with Jessica Biel. This is a rare thing - he?s barely said two words about her the whole two years-plus they?ve dated. A few weeks ago on Oprah, he did talk a little more about Jessica, saying ?I?m not engaged. But if she is, we have a problem.? He also told Oprah that he wasn?t ready to get married, which I totally believe. Not that JT and Jess aren?t committed, I just don?t see them walking down the aisle any time soon.
In the new Hello interview, Justin talks about Jessica like never before. Even though my cynical side is saying that JT is selling something, I have to admit he says some sweet stuff about Jessica. JT calls her ?a great woman? and says she?s ?dynamic? and ?loving?. Here?s an excerpt from the long Hello article:
Recent paparazzi shots of Jessica trying on rings at a Los Angeles jeweler have only served to fuel the gossip that a wedding is [in] the cards - despite denials from Justin.
?I?ve been very lucky to find a woman as dynamic and as loving as Jessica,? says Justin. ?Work has always been a huge focus in my life but now I realize how beautiful it can be to have someone to share it with. I?m so happy to have a great woman in my life.?
Q: Has it been difficlt to keep you relationship as private as you might like?
?We do pretty much everything we want to do. Sometimes we get spotted by the paparazzi but usually we can find a quiet place to eat and no one will bother us. It can be distracting but you learn to keep walking and pay no attention.?
Q: Why is this relationship so special?
?We get along so well. The first thing we noticed when we started going out is how easily we made each other laugh. Sometimes when you meet someone it feels right from the beginning. She has a very engaging personality and we have a natural way of being together. I?m a lucky guy.?
[From Hello Magazine, print edition April 21, 2009]
Aw, sweet. Could Justin be a good guy? Not that he was ever a ?bad guy?, but he seems to have a few moments of douchebaggery in his past. Like telling the world about the real state of Britney?s virginity, or maybe being a jerk to Cameron Diaz right after they broke up. It sounds like JT and Jessica really do have something special. Or maybe that cynical side is right - he?s selling something. MSat thinks now that JT has talked about Biel, they?re definitely going to break up. She?s probably right - it?s the curse of talking about your relationship.

Lending more credence to the rumor that their relationship is a sham, a source tells OK! that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have been fighting a lot lately. Mainly over Timberlake flirting with other girls. One’s whose traps don’t outsize his.
?Justin has always loved women ? singing about them, looking at them, flirting with them. He can?t help it!?
?Jessica?s seen Justin flirt, but says it?s all in good fun,? the pal tells OK!. ?But she has told him that if they get engaged, it?s got to end. Things seem a bit tense with them, but they?re trying to get past the rough patches.?
It also sounds like he wants Jessica to move out.
?Justin asked one of his longtime best friends how much time he?d need to give Jessica if he asked her to move out of their New York City apartment without seeming like a jerk.?
The only reason Justin hasn’t ended it is because he’s scared. If ever he breaks it off with Jessica, Justin is going to get his ass beat like Rihanna, but even worse. He’ll be telling the media that he ran into a door and that Jessica is only like this when she drinks and that, “I don’t want to talk about it.”

There have been a ton of rumors about Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel lately, most of it being gossip along the lines of ?they will totally split any day now.? This OK! story sounds a lot like the other stuff, with one exception. The unnamed sources and ?pals? of the couple actually do sound like Justin?s friends representing Justin?s interests.
These pals describe Justin and Jessica as having problems, and ?fighting lately?. One of the biggest issues is that Justin is a flirt who loves women - so of course Jessica told him, ?that if they get engaged, it?s got to end.? Way to double-down, Jess. Justin is thinking about leaving her, so she gives him an engagement ultimatum. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
Are Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel heading into make-or-break territory? Insiders suggest that at the very least, the couple, who?ve been dating for two years, are out of sync.
?They aren?t split yet, but they are having problems,? a pal of Justin, 28, and Jessica, 27, tells OK!.
?They?ve been fighting lately,? says another friend, adding that the main issue is JT?s incorrigibly roving eye. ?Justin has always loved women ? singing about them, looking at them, flirting with them. He can?t help it!?
But does the ?Sexy Back? singer know when to hit the brakes?
?Jessica?s seen Justin flirt, but says it?s all in good fun,? the pal tells OK!. ?But she has told him that if they get engaged, it?s got to end. Things seem a bit tense with them, but they?re trying to get past the rough patches.?
Indeed, on March 20 the pair was seen dining with their parents at Beverly Hills? Mastro?s Steakhouse restaurant, which hardly suggests a rift.
On the other hand, the insider reveals to OK!, ?Justin asked one of his longtime best friends how much time he?d need to give Jessica if he asked her to move out of their New York City apartment without seeming like a jerk.?
[From OK! Magazine]
The last part interested me the most. How much time should you give someone to move out without seeming like a jerk? I say two months max - for normal people who don?t have millions of dollars and mansions at the snap of our fingers. For Justin and Jessica, a month would probably be plenty of time… if she doesn?t have any film projects lined up.

A few weeks ago, an account of an impending break-up was reported by The Chicago Sun-Times. They claimed that Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake had been having some problems and were about to end their relationship at any moment, contrary to all of the ?they?re so in love? reports that have been widely circulated.
Add another notch on the rumor bedpost: JT and Biel were supposed to make an appearance at a casino opening last week, and now people are treating their absence as a harbinger of relationship doom. PR Inside has more:
Pop star Justin Timberlake and girlfriend Jessica Biel fuelled reports their relationship is in trouble after they failed to show up at a casino opening.
The couple, dating since 2007, has recently been dogged by rumours they plan to split, with a source telling U.S. newspaper The Chicago Sun-Times: “Things are not going as smoothly as (Biel and Timberlake) would want people to think they are.”
The stars then added to the speculation when they failed to deliver a scheduled promotional appearance at the launch of an Indiana Live Casino in Shelbyville, Indiana on 13 March (09).
And their absence infuriated many members of the 8,000-strong audience.
Guest Marian Flemming says, “It was ridiculous. They promised us that Justin and Jessica were going to be here, so we came down to check out the new casino and had hoped to see the two stars. When they did not show up, we simply felt cheated.?
[From PR Inside]
Since there?s no rumor of Timberlake getting sued for his failure to appear, I suppose it either wasn?t a paid appearance, or Timberlake has already given back his appearance fee. By the way, who goes to a casino opening in Shelbyville, Indiana to see JT and Biel?
So are they breaking up? To my eyes, JT has looked ?over it? for a while, and Biel has always seemed a little clingy. Maybe I?m totally wrong, but is Justin Timberlake really such a prize in a boyfriend? Perhaps Jessica could just call it a day and move on to bigger and better things.

Justin Timberlake really is proving himself to be quite the Renaissance Man ? at least when it comes to entertainment and business. He successfully transitioned from a boy band to a musically respected pop star. He opened up two restaurants in Manhattan, Southern Hospitality and Destino, that have both managed to do well. His clothing line, William Rast, is hugely successful. So what?s left for him to do? Tequila. Not a shot of it ? Timberlake is coming up with his own brand.
Justin Timberlake has something new to toast: The singer and budding businessman is launching a new brand of tequila named 901.
In development for more than two years, the liquor will hit store shelves in early May in New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and St. Louis.
The reason behind the numeric name? ?901 is that time of night when your evening is ending, but your night is just beginning. It is also a subtle nod to his hometown,? says the singer’s spokesperson, referring to the area code for Memphis, where Timberlake grew up.
The new venture is the latest addition to Timberlake?s growing business portfolio, which includes the fashion line William Rast and the music label Tennman.
[From People]
According to the New York Post, Timberlake isn?t merely slapping his stamp of approval on the tequila. He actually did (presumably fun) research for its development.
Justin Timberlake is expanding his brand. The pop star, “SNL” regular guest and clothing designer has added tequila to his growing list of interests. Timberlake recently toured a Mexican distillery where he was caught on video tasting tequilas. A spokeswoman for the star confirms, “This was one of his many meetings over the last two years in development of his tequila business.”
[From the New York Post]
All of Justin?s other ventures have proven successful, so I?m sure 901 will too. He?s just got that golden touch. He?s certainly not the first big name celebrity to push hard alcohol. Diddy has a $100 million deal to promote Ciroc vodka ? which he didn?t even create. He?s just giving it his stamp of approval and posing for ads. If Justin?s tequila does well, I can?t even imagine how much he could make from it.
I hate it when celebs let someone else do all the work and then slap their names on it. But in Justin?s case it seems like he?s always the head honcho on his business projects, and no matter what he?s doing, he does well at it. And now he can do all those things while drinking tequila. Even better.

Justin Timberlake might be itching to get out of his relationship with Jessica Biel, if gossip amongst their friends is correct. Even though the couple just purchased a $2.9 million duplex in Manhattan, it seems things aren?t exactly solid between the two ? at least on Justin?s end. Jessica is reportedly desperate to keep him.
We’ve heard rumblings about Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel splitting before, but not for a long time. Despite the usual pooh-poohing denials from the stars’ official camps, two friends of the ”J’s” (as a longtime Biel buddy calls them) insist there are problems in paradise.
While the duo are still living together, Biel’s friend reports, ”Things are not going as smoothly as [Biel and Timberlake] would want people to think they are.” Two friends of Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake insist there are problems in the relationship. On the other side, a veteran Timberlake associate whispers, ”I can always sense when Justin is beginning to get itchy in a relationship. … While he’s still very public about being seen with Jessica, it’s interesting. … He hardly talks about her when she’s not around.
”The same thing happened with Cameron [Diaz, a Timberlake ex], and it also was the case with Britney [Spears].”
To be fair, another longtime Biel pal told me Wednesday, ”I don’t think this is true. I was just with them and I’ve never seen them look happier. … I think this is someone out to unnecessarily cause trouble? ‘I know they are both very good actors, but I truly think their feelings for each other haven’t changed.”
Both of my sources indicate Timberlake thinks Biel is a bit too ”controlling,” but Biel’s friend tells me she’s not going to give up on the relationship easily. ”She will do anything to keep Justin. She really loves him very much.”
[From Bill Zwecker of the Chicago Sun-Times]
I won?t pretend to know much about Jessica Biel, but she?s never struck me as controlling. Justin certainly has though. It might be that anyone who doesn?t do exactly what he wants is ?too controlling.? Jessica has always seemed incredibly bland to me though. Maybe it?s just because she?s not a drama queen and relatively stable, at least by Hollywood standards. We don?t know about every facet of her life, unlike Britney.
But whenever I look at Jessica, I just see beige. Sometimes eggshell white. But never anything interesting. She?s nice to look at, I?ll give her that. But even though I want to empathize with her on this, part of me can?t blame Justin for possibly wanting to move on.

They’re always more than happy to help out a charitable cause, and last night (March 2) Justin Timberlake and Liev Schreiber were spotted at the TriBeCa Ball Fundraising Gala benefitting the NY Academy of Art.
The “SexyBack” singer was all smiles as he arrived at the swanky event, sporting a black wool topcoat over a black leather jacket with a red plaid scarf and jeans.
Meanwhile Mr. Schreiber looked quite dapper himself in a black suit complete with a black sweater-vest and a black necktie.
Liev was also one of the evening’s honorees, along with his gal Naomi Watts and “Top Chef” host Padma Lakshmi. The evening raised money for the education and future of artists through the Academy’s scholarship and public programs.

Out for an afternoon stroll, Justin Timberlake was spotted hanging out and chatting with an unidentified female friend in New York City yesterday (March 1).
The “LoveStoned” hitmaker looked slick in a double-breasted black wool coat with black jeans and black sneakers as he tried his best to ignore the paparazzi. JT may have been home hunting, as he and girlfriend Jessica Biel have been talking about moving to Manhattan together.
In related news, Justin has signed on to do a duet with R&B songstress Rihanna for an anti-terrorism album following the attack in Mumbai back in November.
The song was written by Bollywood composer Aadesh Shrivastava, who told press, “I’ve already invited these singers and they will participate. I’ve recorded with that extraordinarily-talented violinist Kala Ramanathan and with Ustad Rashid Khan. Justin and Rihanna have also given their nod.”

Jessica Biel needed some good press after her disastrous showing at the Oscars, where it appeared she was wearing a satin boob-napkin accessorized by dirty, stringy hair. Hopefully, she fired her stylist and her hairdresser and called her publicist in an attempt to change the subject away from being on everyone?s worst dressed lists.
Bippity-boppity boob-napkin, we have a nice, friendly story in OK! about how Justin Timberlake?s mother just loves Jessica. This actually isn?t the first time that mama?s boy Justin?s mother has been discussed in a tabloid story about Jessica. Last year, Celebitchy reported that Justin?s mom was blocking his wedding to Jessica. Mm-hm, sure. Then there were the reports that Justin bought Jessica an engagement ring in Rome. Right. When will Jessica Biel realize that just because she leaks ?impending engagement? rumors to the press, doesn?t mean Justin wants to marry her. OK! has more:
The two most important ladies in Justin Timberlake?s life, mom Lynn Harless and girlfriend Jessica Biel have become super close since the couple moved into their $2.9 million NYC duplex ? which they furnished with $25,000 worth of merchandise from ABC Carpet and Home ? this month.
“Lynn and Jess seem really tight,” says an insider who saw the pair at the W Hotel’s backstage lounge before Justin’s William Rast fashion show at NY Fashion Week.
Jess, 27, and Justin, 28, are planning to celebrate his success at Fashion Week with a beach vacation. And a second source tells OK!, “they ordered black his-and-hers Havaianas flip-flops with their initials.”
From OK! Magazine
I wish I could spend $25 K on home furnishings, but if you consider all of the furniture they needed, that amount is probably too small. Am I being to harsh on Jess and Justin? They just seem… there. I could understand Justin and Cameron Diaz, they made some kind of sense. Maybe he and Jessica just seem boring on purpose, as a way to avoid media attention. But if that?s the case, why do we always get these pro-Biel stories strategically leaked?
