In the wake of the news that Jennifer Lopez is halting one of her junior clothing lines due to the economy, you?d think it?d be a bad time for another multitasking songstress to be branching out into that very same arena. But that?s exactly what Beyonce and mom Tina Knowles are doing with their new ?Sasha Fierce? line for their label Deron. Deron already has a junior?s line ? so how?s this one going to be different? Well according to them, it?s inspired by Beyonce?s Sasha Fierce ?character? ? who apparently is such a diva that she demands her own line.
Beyonc and Tina Knowles are looking to capitalize more on Sasha Fierce. Utilizing the name of the singer?s alter ego and third solo album, ?I Am?Sasha Fierce,? the mother and daughter design team plans to launch a new junior apparel label, Sasha Fierce for Deron, for back-to-school selling. The collection, which is inspired by Beyonc?s stage presence (she is on a world tour through November), includes a full range of sportswear, outerwear, handbags, footwear, eyewear, lingerie and jewelry. Positioned to sit alongside the company?s Deron junior label, which is similarly priced, the line has so far been picked up by department stores including Macy?s and Dillard?s and specialty stores Jimmy Jazz and Against All Odds.
The collection, Tina said, is ?edgier and trendier and reflects Sasha Fierce?s daring and outgoing attitude.? The jewelry, shoes and eyewear, she added, ?are really over the top? with large chains made in mixed metals such as silver with gold, heavily studded shoes and oversize sunglasses such as the ones Beyonc has been seen wearing on tour. The clothes are a little more subdued to make the accessories stand out ? a one-shoulder dress, black bodysuit, fake leather jacket with oversize collar, leggings and destructed jeans with mesh and lace details lining the ripped material.
Beyonc, who said in a statement ?the line really exudes a different side of my personality, which I am grateful that I can express,? had a lot of say in the creation of the collection, Tina said? ?She definitely tells me what she likes and what she doesn?t. It was her suggestion to line the rips of the jeans with the mesh and lace,? she said. ?It makes the jeans look really different from what?s out there.?
[From Women?s Wear Daily]
I don?t know how different the look really is ? at least based on the photos ? but it?s definitely not bad. I am prematurely old and tend to dislike the urban style most juniors wear these days. But I like what Tina said about the clothes being more subdued in order to make the accessories look better. Most of the time when I pay attention to what people are wearing in New York, it?s like every single part of their ensemble is competing against the rest. It?s always too much, too chaotic, too many patterns, too much jewelry, etc. There is a way to wear the style that?s actually complementary, and though it?s certainly nothing I could ever pull off, the pictures show outfits that look good.
I know we?re never supposed to say anything good about Tina Knowles ? especially her ?design? work. But I think this line might actually really work ? provided you?re in the 18-and-under demographic.

Maybe I’ve just been missing all of the evidence, but I am not really sure why everone seems to think Anna Paquin is so darn hot. Maybe it’s because the actress has been getting some press lately about going nude. I mean, that kind of changes my opinion of her, but I’ve still missed the hotness I guess. I will say that in these pictures from Self magazine, Anna takes pretty nice photos, but her face just can not make me a believer. Which is sad because, if given the opportunity, I would make Anna Paquin a believer and a screamer!

| | Sienna Miller wonders aloud if there's a 'vendetta' against her | | Added 15 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |
|

|
|

Many commenters have pointed it out, but I only realized this recently - Sienna Miller loves to play the victim. Most recently, Sienna?s interview in Vogue was a study in the push-pull of Sienna?s own victim complex. She talked on and on about Jude Law and what had happened between them (re: the nanny), and how she was in a different place, all of which was designed to make us remember ?poor Sienna?. Meanwhile, she only made some cryptic allusions to her on-again relationship with married Balthazar Getty, saying she was ?nave and trusting?. Let me point out - Balthazar is an extreme douchebag, and I?m not absolving him of his fair share in the culpability of this affair. He?s the one who is married, but for her part, no one is forcing Sienna to wander around topless with him month after month.
Unlike many of the celebrity girls with a martyr complex, Sienna has never and will never be a poster girl for The Sisterhood. But she?s trying! After the scandal with Sienna dropping out the Russell Crowe version of Robin Hood, some sources (Sienna?s people) went around complaining about how Sienna was just too young, thin and beautiful for the role. Sienna is now trying to roll that back, saying that the casting of Cate Blanchett was ?better?. She even describes all of these rumors as part of some vague ?vendetta?:
Sienna Miller has insisted she holds no grudges against Cate Blanchett for taking a film role she was originally meant to play.
The actress was initially down to portray Maid Marian in Ridley Scott’s epic Robin Hood, starring Russell Crowe, but the role was recast to Oscar winner Cate.
“Cate’s 10 years older than me, which is more suitable for the script,” Sienna told Total Film magazine. “The script kept changing and evolving to the point where I was no longer appropriate for it.”
She also admitted: “If they’d recast with Keira Knightley I’d have been heartbroken but they’ve gone for something different - and better in my opinion.?
“If I had the choice between Cate Blanchett and me I’d go for Cate Blanchett.”
Sienna also hinted she thought there was a “vendetta” against her in the media.
“There were several people supposed to be doing the film who no longer are but because it’s me it becomes this enormous drama - I think it’s a Sienna thing! There’s just a vendetta against… I don’t know.”
?Films take two-and-a-half years to come out. I understand why I made them at the time but I’m absolutely not there now. I have to be more strategic in the choices I make.”
[From Total Film UK via The Press Association]
Sienna is one of those young stars who needs a really great publicist, and she needs to learn how to take career advice. Someone needs to sit her down and explain in detail that people don?t have a ?vendetta? against her, we just think she’s rather trashy, drunk, narcissistic and trampy because we?ve been provided with lots of evidence. Doesn?t Sienna have good representation? Someone to tell her to break it off with Balthazar for good, and maybe give one interview where she takes some responsibility?

| | Usher's wife says they had sex a week before he filed for divorce | | Added 15 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

And the bitter lying begins! It?s been less than a month since Usher announced his divorce from wife Tameka, but we?re already getting a lot of different versions about the end of their epic love story. Usher claims that the pair have been separated since July of 2008 ? nearly an entire year before he filed for divorce. However in legal papers filed on Monday, Tameka says that?s not true, and they had sex as recently as June 6th. As a result, she thought their marriage was just fine.
The wife of R&B singer Usher was surprised when the entertainer filed for divorce earlier this month and claims the two were intimate less than a week before he moved to end the marriage, according to court documents.
Tameka Raymond, 38, disputes Usher’s claims the couple have been separated since July 2008. She said in court documents filed Monday in Fulton County Superior Court that she “had every reason to believe her marriage was intact” and that two were “intimately together as husband and wife as recently as June 6.”
Usher, whose real name is Usher Raymond IV, filed for divorce June 12, claiming there is “no reasonable hope of reconciliation” and the marriage is “irretrievably broken.” He is seeking joint custody of the couple’s two sons, 1 1/2-year-old Usher Raymond V and 6-month-old Naviyd Ely Raymond.
Tameka Raymond has three children from a previous marriage. She said through her divorce attorney, Randy Kessler, that she has been a faithful wife and loving mother during the marriage.
In Monday’s filing, Tameka Raymond asked a judge to ensure that Usher continues to support his family while the divorce works its way through the courts, including paying her legal fees.
[From the Huffington Post]
I wonder what kind of pre-nup Usher and Tameka have in place. Most rumors indicate Usher always had doubts about her (he called off the wedding at the last minute but later tied the knot), so you?d think he?d have gotten her to sign something iron-clad. There?s also the issue of whether or not he was cheating on her or she was cheating on him ? and if their youngest son Naviyd is actually his. That?s a lot of drama for one divorce, but certainly not more than you?d expect from this pair.
Gut instinct ? and nothing more than that ? tells me Tameka?s probably lying about having sex with Usher on June 6th. And even if they did, I doubt she was unaware that their marriage was in trouble, or thought having sex made it all okay. I?m sure the next few months will bring nothing more than a bunch of lurid accusations and confused denials.

| | Gwyneth Paltrow is launching GOOP in Spanish | | Added 15 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Gwyneth Paltrow has deigned to speak to us peasants once again! This time she?s not trying to teach us fat morons how to make a sandwich, thank God. But you know that as she was being interviewed she was thinking to herself ?I bet this common hillbilly knows nothing about vegetarian bacon. He probably tried to butter his forehead.?
For this interview, Gwyneth has decided to condescend to tell us how Spain is so much cooler than wherever we?re living. She raves about the ?history? of Spain and how much she enjoys ?the way people live over there? They enjoy time with the family. They don’t always have their Blackberries on.? Oh, for Christ?s sake. Some of us have jobs, Goopy! We have stuff to do. We don?t have the luxury of waltzing around a film set a couple of months a year and stashing away a seven-figure salary for our trouble.
I think the interview is being done to promote two of her projects - first, this vanity food thing with Mario Batali called Spain? On the Road Again. The second is something very, very special. Wait for it? wait? Goop En Espaol! That?s right. Gwyneth is launching her Goop monstrosity in Spanish. Dios mio?
Gwyneth Paltrow speaks almost perfect Spanish _ and she does it with an Iberian accent.
The Oscar-winning actress says she traveled to Spain as a teenager, fell in love with the country, and embraces the culture to the point that she visits at least once a year and makes sure her young children, Apple and Moses, also speak the language.
“When I was 15, I went to a small town outside Talavera de la Reina and I had the most wonderful experience. It really changed my life,” Paltrow said in fluent Spanish during a recent interview.
Paltrow said Spain “became a second home.”
“It is so different from the United States. It seemed to have a history, and the buildings are years and years and years old. Here in the United States an old building is about 17 (years old), and over there it’s from 500 B.C., it’s incredible,” she said.
“Also, the way people live over there. They seem to enjoy life a little bit more. They aren’t running around as much as in New York. They enjoy time with the family. They don’t always have their Blackberries on.”
Paltrow remains close to the family she lived with in Spain, calling them “my Spanish mother” and “my brothers” from Spain. Her success as an actress, she says, hasn’t impressed them.
The 36-year-old actress, who is married to Coldplay’s Chris Martin, says she talks to her children in Spanish.
“Moses speaks a little bit, but understands everything. Apple speaks a lot,” she says.
Paltrow shot “Spain … on the Road Again” with chef Mario Batali, cooking expert Mark Bittman and actress Claudia Bassols. They traveled throughout the country, sampling traditional foods and praising the virtues of Spain, its people and cuisine.
She’s also writing a book on U.S. cuisine with Spanish influence that is due out next year.
” … I love food, I love to eat,” she says. “I can’t go on diets. I have to do a lot of exercise.”
Paltrow recently launched a Spanish-language version of her Web site, GOOP.com, a weekly bulletin in which she writes on topics ranging from health advice and travel to fashion and cooking. Contributors include Madonna, Steven Spielberg and Deepak Chopra.
Has she considered acting in Spanish?
“I would love to. I haven’t found the script yet, but the first (movie) would have to be a small role, not very important, because I imagine I would have to get used to acting in Spanish,” she says.
Paltrow says she’d like to work with Spanish directors Pedro Almodovar and Alejandro Amenabar and Mexico’s Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu. And she says she would like to work again with Mexico’s Alfonso Cuaron, who directed her in 1998’s “Great Expectations.”
She is now shooting “Iron Man 2,” in which she reprises her role as Pepper Potts.
“We’re all back together: Robert Downey, Jon Favreau, the director. And Scarlett Johansson is with us, Mickey Rourke. … It’s a phenomenal group, we are having a great time.”
[From The Associated Press via Huffington Post]
After she said the part about acting in Spanish, I bet Penelope Cruz?s eyes rolled out of their sockets. Doesn?t this interview remind everyone of that alleged Paltrow interview from a few years ago? The one where Goopy claimed she was ?misquoted? when she was talking about how great “the English lifestyle” was because “it’s not as capitalistic as America. People don’t talk about work and money… they talk about interesting things at dinner.” How does one say ?little sanctimonious b-tch? en Espanol? Las Goopitas, perchance.

Nicole Scherzinger and the rest of the Pusscat Dolls are always easy on my eyes, so it’s no wonder that I look forward to each and every photo shoot that this group turns out. Unforunately, I can not say the same thing about their albums. Yea, when it comes to these ladies, I think that they are much better seen rather than heard. And it’s not like their music sounds like a screeching cat (pun intended), but that I think Nicole Scherzinger is the bomb. Okay, enough about my obsessions, check out the latest photos of the Pussycat Dolls in Blender magazine.

Last week, we reported on True Blood?s star vampire Stephen Moyer?s interview with Marie Claire. In the interview, Moyer seemed funny and charming as he discussed his girlfriend and costar Anna Paquin and how awesome his vampire character Bill is. But then Moyer totally escalated The Epic Battle of Vampire Supremacy when he called Robert Pattinson?s Edward ?a p-ssy? and ?the slim-Fast, Diet Coke of vampires.? Suddenly, everyone who ever got their mom to buy them black lipstick had to chime in about vampires, sex with vampires, kissing vampires, Joan Jett, and Diet Coke.
Several sources noted the escalation in The Vampire War, but I found MTV?s take particularly funny. MTV actually got ?man on the street? interviews, random New Yorkers to comment about vampires. God, I love New York. Here are some of my favorite comments:
“‘True Blood’ because it’s so much better,” one fan told us on the New York streets. “?Twilight’ is the cheesy version of ‘True Blood.’ [The vampires] are scary and bad, but you still love them.?
Another fan, Sarah, added that “True Blood” is better because it’s “a little bit more mature.” Her friend, Marie, hasn’t seen “True Blood,” but having read both Harris’ and Meyer’s novels, she prefers “Twilight.” ” ‘Twilight’ the movie is awesome,” Marie added.
Sarah opted for Bill. “He seems older and mature,” she told us. Meanwhile her buddy, Marie, explained why she’d go for Edward: “The hair!” she said. “Vampire Bill in the book isn’t that cool.”
[From MTV]
In added Stephen Moyer news, he recently gave an interview to Access DirecTV magazine (story via People). Moyer fails to follow through on the whole ?Robert Pattinson can drink my bloody milkshake? stuff, but Moyer does say sweet stuff about Anna Paquin - he seems thrilled that he won a girl who is so ?hardcore?.
A couple that boxes together, stays together?
At least, according to True Blood’s Stephen Moyer ? the brooding Brit who plays Southern vampire Bill Compton and throws punches with costar and real-life love Anna Paquin.
“When I was a boy I loved boxing,” he tells Access DirecTV magazine in its July issue of his off-screen pastime. “And I’ve got Anna into it.”
Of their love for the brutal hobby, Moyer adds, “I like the sport and she likes the blood. I’m like, ‘Stop the fight, people are getting hurt, I can’t bear it!’ and she’s going, ‘Go on, hit ‘em!’ She loves it. She boxes too.”
But can chivalrous vampire Bill beat telepathic cutie Suki in the ring?
“No way!” he says. “She won’t stop until she’s gnawed your stumps off. I tell you, my girl is hardcore.”
[From People]
Moyer and Paquin seem so cute together. Well, ?cute? meaning ?I bet Anna nails that to the wall every night and then some?. They seem like such a sexy couple, and it?s good to see Anna find such a cool guy. Do you think Moyer and Paquin box as foreplay? I bet they do - and I bet Robert ?Diet Coke? Pattinson and Kristen ?Joan Jett? Stewart don?t. Advantage: True Blood.

Many of us were a little taken aback when we saw photos of Lindsay Lohan?s Las Vegas Lost Weekend earlier this week. The photos show a young woman, allegedly celebrating her 23rd birthday, except that she looks the same age as her forty-something mother. These images of Lindsay should be used to educate young people on a host of subjects: this is what will happen to you if you take drugs, if you smoke, if you don?t take care of your skin, if you don?t eat properly, et cetera. Taken with Lindsay?s recent comments that she?s a ?workaholic?, seeing Lindsay?s five-day pool party made it seem like she had definitely fallen off the wagon - if she was ever really on the wagon.
Earlier today I wrote about how Lindsay was going to have ?a long drama-filled summer? and that her actual birthday (tomorrow) celebration would be some kind hedonistic orgy of drugs, liquor and Ronsons. I might have spoken too soon, if this report from Page Six has any credence. According to their sources, Lindsay?s Las Vegas thing was ?work?. Lohan was paid $70,000 by the MGM Grand to host the pool party on Saturday. This might be true, but then Page Six does something naughty. They state as fact that Lohan ?didn’t drink at the party?. Hm? but what did she smoke? But what did she snort? Answer that for me, Page Six. They also claim that Lohan is really bothered by those accusations she stole a bunch of jewelry, and that she?s going to be keeping her head down and enjoying ?a small private party with friends in LA.?
Lindsay Lohan’s 23rd birthday isn’t until tomorrow, but she’s already managed to profit off the day.
According to sources, the troubled starlet was paid a cool $70,000 by the MGM Grand in Las Vegas to host an all-day “pre-celebration” at the hotel’s Wet Republic pool party last Saturday.
At the event, which served as a promotion for her Sevyn Nine self-tanning mist, Lohan changed bathing suits five times before throwing on club gear and dancing to Michael Jackson songs for the rest of the night.
But friends of Lohan say the event was less of a celebration and more of an urgent attempt to pull in some cash. “None of her really close friends were there,” said our insider, who noted that ex-girlfriend Samantha Ronson was also missing from the festivities. “The only person who was even known was Brittny Gastineau.”
Lohan didn’t drink at the party and actually allowed her photo to be taken. She was also overheard saying she was still distraught from publicity over the disappearance of jewelry she’d modeled for a recent Elle Magazine photo shoot in London.
The hard-partying actress is planning to have “a small private party with friends in LA” tomorrow, according to our source — but her mom, Dina, and sister, Ali, have been asking her to come home to Long Island and spend her birthday with her family.
This wouldn’t be the first time Lohan has tried to make a buck off her birthday. She was scheduled to have her 21st bash in conjunction with Las Vegas nightclub Pure, but the party was canceled after Lohan checked into rehab. She also tried to find corporate sponsors for her 22nd birthday by setting up a Web site. A rep for MGM did not return a request for comment.
[From Page Six]
The biggest celebrities were Lindsay Lohan and Brittny Gastineau? That pool party must have sucked. Seventy thousand for that? Aren?t pool parties the kind of thing that don?t really need some kind of five-figure celebrity hostess? Can?t the hotel just pump some music into the pool area and start handing out the liquor? Bam! A pool party, just like that.
Here?s Lohan at her party this weekend. Images thanks to WENN.com and PR Photos.com.

| | Brad Pitt's 'Moneyball' isn't getting made because it's too artsy-fartsy | | Added 15 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |
|
|
|
|
|
Brad Pitt was supposed to be working this summer. Months ago he signed on to star in Moneyball, directed by Steven Soderbergh, but then five days before the production officially started Sony Pictures pulled more than $50 million in financing and told Soderbergh and Pitt that they were free to take the project to other studios to see if they wanted to finance the disaster. No studio did. So now Brad is totally unemployed this summer, and the tabloids are in mourning. This was the summer Brad was supposed to be having a secret affair in Los Angeles with Jennifer Aniston! Alas, Brad probably spends his long, hot summer days in his underwear, drinking beer and helping Maddox build pillow forts.
When Sony first pulled the financing, the rationale behind the move was a bit cryptic. Was it because of something Brad did? Do studio executives hate Brad Pitt? Or was it something darker? Now Sony?s head Amy Pascal has spoken to the Los Angeles Times to explain why she pulled the plug. Basically, Pascal claims that Soderbergh wanted to make a friggin? $60 million documentary, and that Soderbergh is too artsy-fartsy for his own good. It sounds like Pascal is still all about working with Brad, though. Blind item: Which Sony executive is a Brangaloonie?
It’s never an easy decision when a studio head has to pull the plug on a big movie, as Amy Pascal did last week when she shut down “Moneyball,” a $58-million Steven Soderbergh film that was set to star Brad Pitt as Billy Beane, the maverick general manager of the Oakland A’s who almost singlehandedly reinvented the way baseball scouts and develops young talent.
The movie, based on the bestselling book by Michael Lewis, wasn’t just in pre-production. It was literally five days away from filming when Soderbergh turned in a new version of the script that Pascal and her Sony team found unacceptable. The decision was so abrupt that the film’s producer, Michael DeLuca, got the call about it while on his honeymoon in Paris. As a courtesy to the talent, Pascal gave them an opportunity to try and set the film up elsewhere, but no other studio has shown any interest. So the movie remains at Sony, but will it ever get made? Will Pitt stick with the project? And what exactly went wrong?
“I’ve wanted to work with Steven forever, because he’s simply a great filmmaker,” Pascal says. ?But the draft he turned in wasn’t at all what we’d signed up for. He wanted to make a dramatic reenactment of events with real people playing themselves. I’d still work with Steven in a minute, but in terms of this project, he wanted to do the film in a different way than we did.”
“Steven wanted to tell the story through these interviews with the real people, as they commented on Beane. But there are lots of ways to tell a true story. We were just more comfortable with what we thought was a wonderful draft from Steve Zaillian.”
For now, the project remains in limbo, with Sony having sunk nearly $10 million into the film already. The studio still needs to find out whether Pitt, who is intensely loyal to Soderbergh, will stay with the project. As Pascal put it: “We really hope we can still make this with Brad Pitt.”
Sony would also have to find a new director who is not only a good fit for the material but would pass muster with Pitt, who has director approval on his films. To find a director with enough stature or buzz to attract Pitt won’t be easy.
The most likely options would be for the studio to go in more of a comic direction — possibilities being Jay Roach or Jason Reitman — or toward a more dramatic choice, like Gary Ross or even George Clooney, who is putting the finishing touches on a two-year production deal with the studio. (My own pick would be someone with a sharp, subversive edge, like Pete Berg.)
Pascal insists there’s no bad blood between her and Soderbergh, saying the two plan to meet in the coming days to discuss other possible projects. In the meanwhile, she remains an ardent believer in the film. “We love this movie, we always have and we still want to make it. It’s a completely innovative way to tell a baseball story. It’s about wanting to believe in magic, which is what baseball is all about.”
I’d still say that makes “Moneyball” a longshot. Or to put it in baseball terms, this is a project that will need to stage a big late-inning rally to put a win up on the scoreboard.
[From The Los Angeles Times]
So it?s not Brad?s fault - and Brad might even leave the project if Soderbergh is being forced out. I did learn something new today - that Brad has ?director approval? on his films. That?s so hardcore, it really is. Very few actors have that - usually the director signs on, and then starts casting a film. But not Brad Pitt - he attaches himself to a project and then gets to bring in the director of his choice. So where has all of that power gotten Brad? Unemployed and passed out in a pillow fort.

Hayden Panettiere is getting naked in I Love You Beth Cooper and she wasn’t even bothered while filming it. In fact, she wanted to film the scene in which she drops the towel. Hayden said “If I can’t flaunt it at 20, come on! I mean I might as well show it now.” She says enthusiastically:
“It didn’t bother me much. I think when the person who’s doing it gets all uncomfortable and shy, then it’s other people around who get more uncomfortable because they’re uncomfortable. I mean I was fine ? everyone was really professional.”
And:
“My dad calls me such an exhibitionist. He always says, ‘God, even when you were little, you were such an exhibitionist!’
“I could be 30 years old and just be like, ‘Screw it – I want to take it all off. I better take a picture of this baby before it all goes.’”
This would be fantastic if Hayden actually got nude. Early reports say all she does is drop a towel and show her back. It sounds pretty much like that Jennifer Aniston scene in The Break-Up. This is like if people praised Oprah as being really generous and giving, but when you went to a taping, all you got under your seat was a half-eaten fun sized Snickers bar. And you don’t even like Snickers.

What better way to celebrate your birthday than to profit off it? That’s what broke ass Lindsay Lohan did. Now she’s $70,000 richer. And it wasn’t even her birthday. She’s celebrating that tomorrow with a “small private party with friends in LA.” Page Six writes:
According to sources, the troubled starlet was paid a cool $70,000 by the MGM Grand in Las Vegas to host an all-day “pre-celebration” at the hotel’s Wet Republic pool party last Saturday.
But friends of Lohan say the event was less of a celebration and more of an urgent attempt to pull in some cash. “None of her really close friends were there,” said our insider, who noted that ex-girlfriend Samantha Ronson was also missing from the festivities. “The only person who was even known was Brittny Gastineau.”
Don’t expect that money to go into her rainy day fund either. She’s going to blow it on Redbull and Voka. The rest is going into her overpriced apartment. Money management isn’t Lindsay’s forte. If you made a pie chart of her expenditures, 75% of it would be labeled “Party” and the remaining 25% would be labeled “All Night Long.” If you asked Lindsay what a bank was, she’d point to her vagina.

“Heroes” Hayden Panettiere is C-list at best and remarkably uninteresting, which explains her big decision to drop trou on the big screen in her new shitty movie. According to People Magazine
In the movie ["I Love You, Beth Cooper"], Panettiere plays a high school cheerleader and the object of dorky Denis Cooverman’s affection, and in one locker room scene, the actress drops her towel.
“It didn’t bother me much,” Panettiere said of shooting the reveal. “I was fine.”
She added, “I have the body… if I can’t flaunt it at 20, come on! I might as well show it now.”
Look, naked or not, all I know is if you catch her, she has to grant you a wish. Leprechaun code of honor and all.

Tennis star Anna Kournikova ended up with cuts on her neck after getting into a cat fight at a nightclub in Vegas over the weekend. According to People Magazine
Kournikova and her assistant were sitting at a VIP table when the other woman bumped them. They pushed each other but were separated ? until the woman “came back over and threw a drink on [her] and her assistant,” a source said.
Then she and the woman started shoving and pushing each other. The other woman grabbed Kournikova by the neck and pushed her into a wall before security broke them apart.
So Anna Kournikova thought she was hot shit and wound up getting her ass handed to her. Just like she does on the tennis court! How deliciously apropos.

With the amount of random stuff that spouts out of Megan Fox’s mouth, is it any wonder that she can’t control her love life, either? Megan Fox, 23, was spotted out on a weekend getaway in Las Vegas with her most ex, Brian Austin Green, 35. Megan was most recently linked to her co-star in Transformers 2, Shia Labeouf. From the looks of things either that never happened, it’s over, or she’s trying to make Shia jealous - it’s hard to tell with her:
As they continue to skirt around whether or not they?re back together (and if Shia is more than just a co-star and friend), Megan Fox and former fiance Brian Austin Green enjoyed a wonderful weekend away in Sin City. RadarOnline.com has the full play-by-play of their trip including their discreet public displays of affection.
Arriving at The Palazzo Las Vegas around 3 a.m., the duo quickly met up with Fox?s sister and brother-in-law who were in town from Florida and retired to their suite. Hours later on Sunday, the group had lunch at Mexican hotspot Dos Caminos where Fox?s sibling picked up the check!
?Brian was in shorts and Megan was in skinny jeans and heels. She was wearing big sunglasses but took them off when they sat down. They were in a cabana in the restaurant and had us turn the TV to the Dodgers/Marlins game,? a worker told RadarOnline.com. ?Megan had tuna ceviche for an appetizer and then she and her sister had the pescada tacos (fish) and the guys had the asada tacos (beef). Megan?s sister picked up the check and it was $100 and she tipped $20. They all looked like they were having a lot of fun laughing and joking around.?
While they simply ?looked friendly? at lunch, they turned up the sweetness factor later in the night when they caught the Mystere by Cirque du Soleil show at Treasure Island. Arriving in a stretch black limo, the foursome ate popcorn and sipped soda as they watched the performance- at one point one of the performers even put his head between the two as part of the act! The random interruption did nothing to change Fox and Green?s intimacy with one another.
?They were calling each other baby, he had his arm around her, and they were holding hands,? an onlooker said. ?At one point she put on chapstick but had some leftover so she put the extra on his lips.?
[From Radar Online]
The NY Daily News reported that Megan and Shia were seen out together twice last week, once at a dinner with Oliver Stone that could have been business, and another time at a party. A witness claimed they looked “into each other” and Shia is said to have “watched her like a hawk all night.?
Did Megan really get with Shia at one point, is their relationship just a rumor, or is Megan playing the field? Is Shia pining for Megan while she refuses to give him the time of day? Megan announced in mid June that she was “currently single,” meaning she was split up from Green at that time. My ideal scenario is that she hooked up with Shia, he let her down gently when he realized how crazy she was, and she went crawling back to her ex. It’s more likely that Megan is breaking Shia’s wacky but tender heart, though, either by refusing his advances or accepting them and then rejecting him.
Megan and Brian were photographed out together in the morning on 6/23, just last week, so she was probably already back with Brian on the night that Shia was staring at her at the party. Shia deserves so much better. Maybe he realized that, though, and got out while he could.

Renee strikes a pose after her date
Is Bradley Cooper’s agent setting him up with top actresses for the publicity? Do these arguably emotionally vulnerable women expect romance only to be met with tabloid headlines or are they complicit in this facade?
A couple of weeks ago, Cooper went on a date with Jennifer Aniston in New York that just happened to be captured by the paparazzi. A very suspicious super positive profile of Cooper then appeared in People Magazine a few days later - “He can cook! He can speak French! He’s a college graduate!” The date looked like a PR stunt to me in light of that “Bradley Cooper is awesome!” article that soon followed. Cooper later said he was “just friends” with Aniston. I thought there might have some feelings for her by the way he worded his statement, but most of you took it like he was giving her the brush off.
Cooper’s latest A-list conquest is none other than Renee Zellweger, who, like Jennifer Aniston, is a 40 year-old single actress who is often portrayed in the gossip press as a sad spinster who can’t keep a man. In Zellweger’s case she avoids a lot of publicity by keeping herself scarce, though. Now Zellweger has hooked up on at least one date with who we’re being told is the latest up-and-coming Hollywood property. Is Zellweger working to change her image too or was this a genuine date? If so, how did the paparazzi find them? At least they didn’t pose together afterwards:
If there is still anything going on between Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Aniston, it certainly didn’t seem to be on the actor’s mind on Tuesday night as he enjoyed a romantic Manhattan meal with Rene Zellweger.
The pair, who co-star in the upcoming Case 39, were spotted together at Antonucci, an elegant Italian restaurant on NYC’s posh Upper East Side, where one diner tells OK! that this was no friendly chow session.
“He pulled her chair out for her when she sat down and he kissed her on the hand,” says the witness. “If they’re just friends, they were being awfully affectionate!”
Renee and Bradley were seated at a corner table, where diners describe their behavior as “flirty,” “relaxed” and “cute together.”
In a white Henley, jeans and red sneakers, the He’s Just Not That Into You Hunk was more casually dressed than his dinner date, who sported a thigh-length black, bell-sleeved dress and strappy shoes with very high heels and carried and Hermes clutch.
“Throughout the dinner they were playful and flirty,” a witness tells OK!. “She played with her hair a lot, and she would often touch his arm when she was making a point about something.” The lucky celeb-spotter also reveals to OK! that Rene even leaned forward across the table on a few occasions to play with his napkin.
“At one point, he seemed to want to whisper something to her as if it were a secret,” says the diner. “He spoke into her ear and then they both started giggling.”
Perhaps not wanting the night to end too quickly, the pair remained at their table, sipping tea and chatting long after they finished their food.
When the check arrived, sources tell OK! that both Brad and Rene reached for it. “She told him she wanted to buy him dinner to pay him back for something,” says the witness. “And when he opened the check, it already had her card in it!” We’re told this little surprise caused Brad to blurt out, “You [expletive]-er!”
Witnesses also say that the 40-year-old Oscar-winner jokingly referred to herself as a “cougar” because of Bradley’s youthful 34 years.
After conferring over who was supposed to call whom next, the dining duo did their best to throw off the waiting paparazzi by leaving five minutes apart and hopping into separate cabs.
[From OK! Magazine]
Kaiser pointed out to me that both Jennifer Aniston and Bradley Cooper are clients of Creative Artists Agency. There have been stories that CAA has tried to set Aniston up with guys for PR purposes. Zellweger used to be with CAA, but she just dropped them in mid June and moved to the William Morris Agency. Surely she still has contacts there, though, and I would bet that someone put a call in to find another date for Bradley. At least Aniston has had enough of the pretending and I would bet she gave him the cold shoulder after the “friends” comment. Zellweger needs the press though after her last movie, New in Town, didn’t do that well at the box office. She’s got another film coming out in limited release at the end of August, a 1950s era comedy with Chris Noth and Kevin Bacon called My One and Only. This tabloid relationship will be long over by then, though.

Kournikova and her pals were partying at Lavo after attending the Hardbat Classic table tennis tournament when a woman at the next table “threw a drink at Anna. She felt Anna was invading her space,” our source said. Kournikova “sprung into action” and starting screaming at the woman and shoving her. “It was a big fight,” the spy said. The woman was kicked out only after leaving Kournikova with some vicious scratch marks on her neck. Kournikova’s rep didn’t return calls.

Remember those crackhead pictures of Lindsay Lohan in Las Vegas over the weekend? She was there to promote her line of tan-in-a-can, but ended up going on some kind of five day coke-and-liquor pre-birthday bender. And yes, I made that judgment solely from the pictures. Lohan also wanted us to know her birthday celebrations aren?t over. She turns 23 years old (note: figure not in crackhead years, in human years) on Thursday, and I?m sure her actual birthday celebration will be epic.
Even though we?re about to witness a debauched birthday celebration that will probably extend until September, Lindsay wants us to know that she?s not just some party girl with nothing better to do than hang out by a Las Vegas pool, drink, get high and ?promote her spray tan?. Lindsay wants us to know that she?s a ?workaholic?. I kid you not:
Lindsay Lohan is a “workaholic”. The ‘Mean Girls’ actress - who is more famous for her turbulent personal life rather than her career - always needs to have a project on the go otherwise she gets frustrated.
“It’s not that hard to be me, but I do work harder than most of my friends’ parents. I am the hardest-working person I know. I’m a workaholic. I don’t know what to do when I’m not working. I get creatively frustrated.”
The 23-year-old star - whose most recent film, 2007’s ‘I Know Who Killed Me’, flopped - last appeared on ‘Ugly Betty’ but says she would rather be making movies. She told Britain’s OK! magazine:
“I prefer to be making films. For most people - and for me, too - there’s something about going to the movies. It’s about being able to transform into different people and tell different stories. You can go to the movies if you’re depressed, and you can walk out later laughing. The fact that going into a theatre for two hours can do that is an amazing feeling.
“To be the person who’s on that screen, who can make someone feel better, or bring out more emotion in someone, makes me feel really blessed that I’m able to do that. It’s just about finding the right roles, but when the time is right, they will come.”
[From OK! Magazine via I?m Not Obsessed]
Snarf, chuckle. ?Creatively frustrated?? Is that the new euphemism? What does it really mean? Cough cough pass the crack pipe cough. Some are wondering aloud if Lindsay can keep it together long enough to start, film, and complete the movie The Other Side, which she signed on for in May. Rumor was that producers only hired her under the condition that she keep her sh-t together. Uh? yeah. Good luck with that. The Other Side starts in October? so it?s going to be a long drama-filled summer.

Michael Jackson is going to be on the cover of every magazine this week. His image has already claimed Time, Newsweek, OK!, National Enquirer, and he shares a split In Touch cover with Farrah Fawcett. So it?s no surprise that Michael is Life & Style?s cover, but I found the article somewhat interesting. The cover blares out ?Who Killed Michael? with a pull-quote from self-described ?family lawyer? Brian Oxman, who claims ?Michael feared someone wanted to murder him?.
Oxman is the same person who went a round of interviews on CNN and MSNBC just a couple of hours after Jackson died. In those interviews, Oxman played the media-wh-ring Cassandra, describing with a smarmy faux-humility how he was the one person in Michael?s life who was really looking out for Michael?s best interests, and that he had ?warned the family? about Michael?s drug use and abuse. Oxman may have been telling the truth (which I doubt) but he came across as gross, and it makes sense that he would tell his story to a budget rag like Life & Style. The bulk of the story seems to have come straight from Oxman too, and Oxman paints a conspiratorial picture:
?He feared somebody wanted to kill him,” Brian Oxman, Michael’s family lawyer tells Life & Style. “He was even concerned people would kill him to somehow try to take control of the Beatles back catalog.”
In the hours after Michael Jackson was pronounced dead, the world seemed to come together to grieve. But a dark new controversy was already starting to emerge. Two days after the LA County Coroner’s office performed a routine autopsy, Jackson family members announced they were demanding a second autopsy. Why the need for another examination? Life & Style has learned that even before Michael’s sudden death, the star’s family believed Michael was deliberately being kept in a drugged state by people who wanted to get their hands on his money.
“He appeared to be taking a variety of strong narcotics, and many of those drugs were obtained in the names of his staff and associates,” an insider tells Life & Style. “While the people around him insist they were acting in his best interest, the drugs were used to control and manipulate Michael — and the drugs eventually killed him.” And now that Michael’s gone, “his family has asked the LAPD to investigate [whether there was any thing unusual about his money trail],” says the insider. “A team has already started probing his finances.”
Michael was in such a fatigued, unhealthy state not only because of anorexia–insiders say he was limiting himself to just one meal a day to stay thin–but because those in his inner circle were pushing him to work in order to pad their own wallets. “Michael was under massive mental stress because of the pressure of the tour,” says the insider. “He kept saying that he owed a lot of money and people would kill him if he didn’t do the concerts. He felt trapped and terrified.”
Fulfilling his commitment wasn’t the only thing scaring Michael. “He feared somebody wanted to kill him,” Brian Oxman, Michael’s family lawyer tells Life & Style. “He was even concerned people would kill him to somehow try to take control of the Beatles back catalog.”
[From Life and Style]
Was someone really trying to ?kill? Michael? I doubt it. What I do think is that Michael died because of the negligence of many (including family members), the lack of professional and personal ethics of several doctors, and lastly, Michael died because he couldn’t shake his own demons. Just my thoughts on the matter.
The question of Michael?s money is something I?ve always found fascinating, but I don?t think anyone was going to ?kill? Michael to somehow get their hands on his song catalog. TMZ is reporting that as of 2007, Michael $567.6 million in assets, the bulk of which was the publishing catalog, which includes more than 200 Beatles songs. Of course, Michael also had millions in debt - so my guess is that his estate is somewhere in the vicinity of $300 to $500 million dollars, with real estate values being a factor. The estate will be worth a lot more if the executors decide to hold an auction for part or all of the publishing catalog. Would someone kill him for that?

A private funeral service was held yesterday in LA for Farrah Fawcett, the beloved actress and icon who died from cancer last Thursday at the age of 62. Farrah’s longterm partner, Ryan O’Neal, and her best friend, Alana Stewart, were by her bedside in the hospital when she passed and both paid loving tribute at her funeral. Farrah’s son, Redmond O’Neal was granted a brief leave from jail to attend his mother’s funeral, where he was a pallbearer.
US Weekly’s details of the service are a little heartbreaking and it’s hard to read the touching poem from funeral program and think about this dear woman without getting choked up:
A private funeral was held Tuesday at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles for actress Farrah Fawcett, who died June 25 after a long battle with cancer.
Her longtime partner Ryan O’Neal and best friend Alana Stewart both wore black as they arrived at the Roman Catholic cathedral around 4 p.m. PST for the private service.
Her former Charlie’s Angels costars, Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith and Cheryl Ladd (who replaced Fawcett on the hit 70s show) also attended, as well as actor Ernie Hudson and Garry Shandling. E! News reports model Cheryl Tiegs, novelist Jackie Collins, Dynasty star Joan Collins and Fawcett’s ex Lee Majors, with whom she recently reconnected after more than two decades of silence, attended as well.

Desperate Housewives has cast its new vixen according to EW’s Michael Ausiello, and I don’t think many people are going to be happy with the casting of Drea De Matteo as the Edie Britt replacement.
De Matteo, who will be a series regular, will play the matriarch of a new Italian family. Casting is underway for her landscape designer husband and their tightly wound son.
Maybe because I never watched her on The Sopranos and I only saw her on Joey, I think her casting is something we are all going to want to forgetaboutit faster than we did when they added Alfre Woodard.

The Guardian is reporting that Simon Cowell was offered somewhere between $100-$144 million to stay on American Idol for season 10 and I don't think in these economic times anyone is worth that amount of money.
A source close to Fuller says that Cowell has already been offered three to four times the $36m he was paid for American Idol in 2008 - but then, he is the most important person on the show and the series makes $900m a year and attracts audiences of 25 million. The point is that Cowell makes nothing more than this admittedly large performance fee and that's the gap the Green deal hopes to fill.
While I understand that Idol brings in $900 million a year, Fox affils are laying off people left and right and maybe if Fox put some of the money back into the company and not into Simon Cowell's pocket more people would still have their jobs and not collecting unemployment.
Don't get me wrong, I love Simon and I want to keep on the show but is anyone worth that amount of money? Do you think he is worth over $100 million to keep him on American Idol?
