Elizabeth Taylor Has Died

March 23, 2011 By Cara Harrington Leave a Comment

A real Dame has flown to the great big accessories closet in the sky. Dame Elizabeth Taylor has died at the age of 79.

Taylor passed away early this morning after suffering congestive heart failure. On February 11th she was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles for the heart problems. Her family was called to her side as those gorgeous violet eyes closed for the last time. Her rep confirmed the news to People.

“She was surrounded by her children – Michael Wilding, Christopher Wilding, Liza Todd and Maria Burton. Though she had recently suffered a number of complications, her condition had stabilized and it was hoped that she would be able to return home. Sadly, this was not to be.”

Taylor starred in over 50 films in her career and won two Oscars for her work in the films “Butterfield 8″ and “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” She had a total of 70 tv and movie titles attached to her resume, appeared solo on the cover of People 14 times (second to Princess Diana) and was the First actress to earn $1,000,000 for a movie role (Cleopatra).

She was known more so for her tumultuous private life that included eight marriages, to the likes of Conrad Hilton, Eddie Fisher and Richard Burton, and her many physical ailments that plagued her later in life.

If you would like to pay respects to Elizabeth, her family asks that you make a donation to The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation in lieu of flowers or cards.

Charlie Sheen to Undergo Psych Evaluation

March 22, 2011 By Holly Stafford 1 Comment

Apparently the only thing Charlie Sheen is high on these days is life. But before Charlie can see his kids, he needs to undergo a psych evaluation, according to what his custody agreement with soon-to-be ex-wife Brooke Mueller states. Finally, someone is questioning his mental health! The terms of the custody deal remain undisclosed to the public, but Radar Online claims that one clause in the agreement states that Charlie has agreed to have a full psychological evaluation before he can see Bob and Max.

“Charlie won’t see the boys until he sees a psychiatrist, that is someone neutral, that hasn’t previously treated him.”

As of yet, he has not submitted for the test, (we’re assuming it’s because he’s too busy gearing up for his upcoming Live Tour) but he “knows” what he has to do should he want contact with them again. His other ex wife, Denise Richards, is keeping their daughters far away from him at the moment. No word on if she will let the girls see their dad once he passes this psych evaluation. TMZ says both Charlie and Brooke had to take drug tests on March 11th because of their custody battle, and believe it or not, Charlie was as clean as a whistle. No word yet on Brooke’s results.

Charlie was forced to surrender the boys to police earlier this month after Brooke – who herself has a problem with drugs – was granted a temporary restraining order against him because she was “extremely concerned” for the safety of the twins when around him. Meanwhile, Brooke, who has the primary custody of their sons, has let her temporary restraining order against Charlie expire today. She was scheduled to petition to have the temporary restraining order made permanent, but her lawyers canceled the court appointment. Both Charlie and Brook have also promised to take a drug test every week until their twins turn 18.

Michael Lohan Arrested for Domestic Violence

March 22, 2011 By Holly Stafford Leave a Comment

The Lohan family never ceases to amaze me with their stupidity! Between Lindsay’s sticky fingers, among other things, and mom Dina’s attempts at pimping out her family to whatever media outlet will take two second to listen, they are quite the set of characters. Lindsay’s father Michael Lohan just loves being in the news and sometimes I think he does crazy things just to keep his 15 minutes of fame going. Michael has a violent past – He was abusive towards Dina during their marriage, while his former girlfriends, Kate Major and Erin Mueller, also accused him of violence. Micheal must be a repeat offender because he was arrested last night for domestic violence.

Last night, Major came into the West Hollywood police station to report the incident that happened at their nearby apartment. Apparently Major, who hasn’t lived with Michael at the apartment in some time, came by to pick up some of her belongings that were left behind.

Per TMZ:

We’re told Michael became upset that Kate was packing up for good, and “went ballistic.” They started arguing, and Kate turned her back on him. She told cops, Michael then grabbed her and threw her across the room. Kate says she struck the bedpost with her left shoulder.

When she threatened to call the cops – it just added fuel to Michael’s fire… He then allegedly took a towel and began choking her, while threatening to cut himself with a razor blade and saying he would blame it on her. According to police, suffered minor injuries, but refused medical attention from Los Angeles County Fire Department paramedics at the scene.

As for Michael, he was picked up by police shortly after while walking on Santa Monica Blvd. During the booking process Michael complained of chest pains – how convenient, eh? – and has been admitted to the hospital. He has been charged with inflicting corporal injury on a co-habitant, false imprisonment, and preventing the report of victimization, all of which are felonies. Once he is released from the hospital, Michael will then go back to the Sheriff’s Station to finish his booking, where his bail has been set at $200,000. Michael is already on probation so this could mean he’s heading back to jail. Perhaps he and Lindsay could have a father/daughter cell?

Dancing With The Stars Recap: Kirstie Alley Wows While Others Fall Flat-VIDEO

March 22, 2011 By Crista Webster Leave a Comment

Well Kittens, I sat down with a martini and my crushed ‘Karate Kid’ fantasy and watched ‘Dancing with the Stars’ last night.

After about an hour and half of half-ass attempts to strut around naked (I am talking to you, Romeo), Kirstie Alley’s over 40- year-old trunk of junk took to the floor with her pro-partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy to deliver, what the judges hailed as the best ‘Cha-Cha’ of the night.

Via US Weekly:

“I’m doing this as a challenge to see how far I can push myself physically and still live. My biggest challenge is to move quickly. If someone told me to haul ass, it would take two trips.”

Dubbed “G” for grandma by Chmerkovskiy, Alley put her much younger competitors to shame: including Disney actress Chelsea Kane and footballer Hines Ward.

Keeping her own, however, was former Hugh Hefner hoe turned professional baby mama, Kendra Wilkinson who tried to put her all her years as a club-bunny to use despite her partner, Louis van Amstel’s protest.

“I’m here to turn all those years of club dancing into elegant ballroom dancing. I’ve got moves for a white girl, let me tell you that.”

Watching Wilkinson shake her money maker in the studio audience was husband Hank Baskett and her former ~~sugar daddy~~ lover Hugh Hefner. The two, who were seated next to one another, cheered Wilkinson on throughout her performance.

To see which star gets the axe first (and my money is on Wendy Williams who looked like a stuffed drag queen), tune into ABC next Tuesday, March 29.

Chris Brown Breaks Window During Violent Outburst on ‘Good Morning America’ – PHOTOS, VIDEO

March 22, 2011 By Cara Harrington 3 Comments

Making his ridiculous bleached blonde hair debut, Chris Brown made a further fool of himself on ‘Good Morning America.’

Robin Roberts interviewed Brown and asked about Rihanna and the restraining order being lifted. Brown seemed to have his anger under control for a moment and tried to aim the focus back to pimping his new album.

“It’s not really a big deal to me now. I am past that in my life. Today is the album’s day so that’s what I’m going to focus on so everyone go get that album.”

Robin then went back into talking about his album for a moment. Of course the topic circled back to the Rihanna incident after Chris talked about his album title F.A.M.E. being aimed at “forgiving all my enemies” which include the “haters and the naysayers.” (I.E. people who aren’t fans of lady beaters.) Roberts then asked how he felt he was dealing with the repercussions and he was obviously beyond irritated and once again asserted that he just wanted to focus on his album.

After the cameras cut, Brown turned violent. He stormed off set and into his dressing room where he started yelling and screaming. This is when concerned staff called the security. He became violent and started throwing furniture which broke a window. (The picture in the thumbnails shows the broken glass from the studios at GMA.)

“We’re told Brown was out of control, and one source present tells us he smashed a window in his dressing room, and the glass shattered and some shards fell onto 43rd and Broadway. ABC security tells TMZ … the window was shattered with a chair.”

Chris then ripped off his shirt and stormed out of the building, but on his way out he got in the face of one of the show’s producers and started yelling while staring him down. Security and fellow employees separated Brown. Following the show he took to Twitter to further vent his uncontrolled rage…

“I’m so over people bringing this past s**t up!!! Yet we praise Charlie sheen and other celebs for there bulls**t.”

He deleted that Tweet and replaced it with more album shilling.

“All my fans!!! This album is for you and only you!!! I’m so tired of everyone else!! Honestly!! I love team breezy!!”

The site also points out that Brown is still on probation. While I get that constantly rehashing the Rihanna incident is aggravating and even old news…beating up a window was NOT the way to prove you are a stable person in control of your anger.

Justin Bieber Makes Fun of Rebecca Black

March 22, 2011 By Cara Harrington 6 Comments

Rebecca Black isn’t making too many friends on the child star playground. The internet phenom was beating Justin Bieber’s latest single, ‘Never Say Never,’ on iTunes with her tune, ‘Friday,’ by four spots.

The Biebs wasn’t impressed with her auto-tuned nasal ode to the weekend. He Tweeted a simple but to the point reference to her song…

“sunday comes after saturday? weird.”

Hollywood Life also referenced a Twitter exchange between Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato which led them to believe that a “feud” was starting to brew between the girls.

“Recent Tweets between Demi and Selena are especially revealing. On March 18, Demi tweeted to Selena, “I miss you because apparently we’re one in the same..!!!” Soon after, Selena replied with, “hahaha flashback!! Oh, good times.” Sounds like the Disney gal pals are exchanging some inside jokes about the hoopla surrounding Rebecca.”

I failed to see the connection to the 13 year old in their claim that the Disney starlets were poking fun at her in their Tweets. In actuality, Selena and Demi have a duet called “One and the Same” which I am pretty sure is what they were referring to. So no “feud” is going on between Black, Lovato and Gomez. However, it does look like Justin isn’t a Rebecca fan.

Courteney Cox and David Arquette Reconciling !?

March 21, 2011 By Holly Stafford 1 Comment

Courteney Cox and David Arquette have had a rocky past few months. The couple announced they were splitting up last Fall. David didn’t handle the break up well and spewed not so nice things about Court in interviews, spent lots of time partying, and then ended up in rehab. A few weeks ago David was on Oprah, talking about his addiction and his break up with Courteney, and confessed that he’d love to get his family back together. Perhaps David is getting his wish.

It’s good to see David working through his issues and it seems that Courteney is very supportive. This past weekend they were spotted at a flower shop together in Malibu. Was it just a friendly get together as friends or are they working it out? Not sure, but Courteney seemed to leave the option open. Cox told the April issue of Harper’s Bazaar she holds no ill feelings toward her husband of almost 12 years, and seemed to leave he door open for a possible reconciliation.

Per Digital Spy:

In the interview, the Cougar Town star admitted that she would have “huge waves of pain” if their partnership was dissolved entirely. “But right now, I don’t have that, because I don’t know what the future holds, and I guess because I have strong feelings for him,” Cox added.

Miley Cyrus‘ parents decided to give another try last week and Pink and her hubby were on their way to divorce, but reconciled. It could happen! Best of luck to Courteney and David!

CBS Desperate to Have Charlie Sheen Back on ‘Two and a Half Men’

March 21, 2011 By Holly Stafford 2 Comments

I think it’s safe to say that Charlie Sheen is winning! Last week he sold out a bunch of cities for his Live Tour and now there’s talk of Charlie’s return to TV maybe sooner rather than later. Charlie was let go from his CBS hit TV show ‘Two and a Half Men‘ after he threatened the creator and was acting a little out there. But apparently crazy sells! After the live shows come and go what will be next on Charlie’s agenda? TMZ is reporting that he met with Fox executives late last week to brainstorm about ideas for Charlie including a late night talk show.

Our sources say nothing was decided at the meeting, but everyone liked Charlie.

But Fox may need to pony up the big money because CBS reportedly wants Charlie back. Radar Online is saying that top CBS executives are ready to forgive and forget all of Charlie’s craziness to have him back on their network. Les Moonves, CBS CEO, is trying to make it happen, reportedly chatting with executives from Warner Bros. who produce the show – But the issue is really between Charlie and Chuck Lorre, who was the target of many threats and rants.

“Moonves wants to get the show back on the air. He’s all for it,” the insider adds. “He says certain people need to forget anything and everything Charlie’s done recently and just move on with the business at hand. The core issue is, as he put it, the volatile relationship between Charlie Sheen and Chuck Lorre. He believes that if CBS and Warner Bros. TV honchos can find a way to get Chuck and Charlie to speak again, cooler heads will prevail.”

I think CBS will need to really show Charlie the money and up his pay big time if they ever want him back. Is there about to be a lot of Sheen butt kissing by CBS? It looks that way! Winning!

Robert Pattinson on Justin Bieber’s Lie: “Don’t Use Me!”

March 21, 2011 By Crista Webster 2 Comments

This could be the end of the world kittens! Take cover!!!

Apparently, ‘Twilight’ hunk Robert Pattinson doesn’t like tween sensation Justin Bieber throwing his name around like the last shot of Jack Daniels outside an AA meeting.

According to reports, Bieber stated in an interview that not only had he and Pattinson met, but the two had a heartfelt discussion on using their hair to pick up chicks.

Via Ace Showbiz:

“One day Robert Pattinson came up to me at a party and said, ‘For whatever reason, people love our hair and it’s always a great ice-breaker with girls,’ ” the 17-year-old singer said. “He is like, ‘Hey my name’s Robert. Want to touch my hair?’ I thought he was joking, but it really works.”

But apparently, Bieber is full of bull.

Pattinson told MTV that he has never even met Bieber, let alone given him advice on how to pick up chicks.

“I’ve never met this guy. I saw that as well. I was like, ‘You’re really famous man – what are you doing?’ You don’t need to use me to make up stories!”

No worries Rob. Most of us would like to use you. Just be glad the Biebs only wants your hair advice.

Sammy Hagar Admits Alien Abduction

March 21, 2011 By Crista Webster Leave a Comment

In an effort to shamelessly promote his new autobiography, Red: My Uncensored Life In Rock, rocker Sammy Hagar revealed in a recent interview that he believes he was abducted by aliens.

In an interview with Eric Spitznagel of MTV, Hagar reveals a lot about his raunchy, wild years as the front man with the rock group Van Halen. However, things get a bit bizarre with Spitznagel decides to joke with Hagar about potentially being abducted by aliens.

Okay, let’s just cut to the chase. I’m just going to come out and ask it. Have you ever been abducted by aliens?
I think I have.

What? Really? I was kidding. You seriously believe that?
[Laughs.] Now you’re making me sound like a crazy person.

How is that crazy? I wasn’t there, I don’t know what happened to you.
Remember the story in the book, where I have a dream about being contacted by aliens in the foothills above Fontana?

Yeah, yeah, I’ve got the page right here. “I saw a ship and two creatures inside of this ship… And they were connected to me, tapped into my mind through some kind of mysterious wireless connection.” You’re telling me that wasn’t a dream?
That’s right. It was real. [Aliens] were plugged into me. It was a download situation. This was long before computers or any kind of wireless. There weren’t even wireless telephones. Looking back now, it was like, “F***, they downloaded something into me!” Or they uploaded something from my brain, like an experiment. “See what this guy knows.”

Unfortunately, all the aliens received was torrid tales of shirtless 17 year-olds kept in the sex tents at Van Halen shows.

Red: My Uncensored Life In Rock is available in book stores now.
