Edward Furlong’s Freedom Has Been Terminated

It became apparent that actor Edward Furlong didn’t seem to understand what it meant to have no contact with the girlfriend he had a habit of beating up on, so the L.A. Superior Court decided to help him understand — by locking his messy self up for six months.

The Terminator 2 star was officially sent away on Monday for two reasons:

1. acting out his inner Chris Brown on girlfriend, Monica Keena (also an actress) – the same girlfriend he was arrested for attacking twice.

2. violating the court order that told him to stay away from Monica.

    Furlong was placed on 3 years probation back in 2010 for violating a civil protective order obtained by his estranged wife Rachael Kneeland. Furlong was required to obey all laws during the course of his probation …

    … which clearly, he did not.

Clearly. Well, he’ll have a lot of time to think about it now — and he definitely won’t be able to see his girlfriend for quite some time.

Boo-hoo.

Taylor Swift Hates Women, Too!

Of course, that long list of guys would eventually get dry — so it only makes sense that Taylor Swift would go after women on her “they suck” list.

More from Taylor (and her “friend’s”) Vanity Fair article is coming to light and the singer has a gripe against comedians Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, who made the unfortunate mistake of making a joke of the singer while at the Golden Globes (they were the hosts of the ceremony).

    [Tina and Amy] playful[ly] chided Taylor, telling her to stay away from Michael J. Fox’s son. The singer was allegedly in the restroom (which explains why the camera didn’t immediately cut to her), but she has settled on a punishment fit for the crime.

So what is that crime, you ask? Well, according to Little Miss Sweet, they should suffer eternal damnation.

Seriously.

    “You know, Katie Couric is one of my favorite people,” Taylor Swift told Vanity Fair when asked about the incident (and mean girls—not to be mistaken for Mean Girls—in general). “Because she said to me she had heard a quote that she loved that said, ‘There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women.’”

So, making a joke about someone who has openly been seen with a lot of men (and was even more lighthearted than most comments made about her whorish activities) means that person is evil.

And people wonder why I don’t care for her.

Head on after the jump for what Fey and Poehler thought of Taylor’s wish for them.

So because word spreads quickly in Hollyweird, the two comedians both obviously got to hear the odd choice of punishment the singer had for them over a joke.

Tina told E! News that she was honestly “surprised” that Taylor reacted so strongly (I think everyone is) and figured if anyone would get mad, it would be Titanic director James Cameron (she made an even stronger quip regarding him and now ex-wife and director Kathryn Bigelow during the Globes) — but he didn’t.

Because, you know — he knows how to take a damn joke.

As for Poehler, she reached out to The Hollywood Insider and somewhat agreed with T-Swift’s thoughts.

“Aw, I feel bad if she was upset”, she expressed. “I am a feminist, and she is a young and talented girl. That being said, I do agree I am going to hell. But for other reasons. Mostly boring tax stuff. ”

See how that works, Taylor? She, too, can take a ribbing.

For someone who swears she’s an adult, you really haven’t yet grasped how to act like one.

Mila Kunis Helps Out Interviewer

Sometimes, the ones who ask the questions to the stars are a lot more nervous than they let on.

But it’s a rare feat when the star helps to lighten the mood in order to make sure they both have an amazing time during a mundane schedule.

During a press interview for the upcoming Oz: The Great and Powerful, an obviously nerve wracked Chris Stark for BBC1 Radio was really feeling the heat with talking to Esquire’s Most Sexiest Woman, Mila Kunis — so the 29-year-old actress helped to break the ice with just talking randomly about both she and the interviewer’s likes and dislikes — which turns out to be quite hilarious and awesome!

    Instead, the two talked about Stark’s awesomely named friends (Sir Dosser, The Convict, Chango the Beast), booze (she likes Blue Moon, he prefers Jäger shots dropped in to double vodka and Red Bull) and Baywatch. Oh yeah, and he asks her out three times.

    But the most impressive part might be when a publicist chimes in that they really should be discussing the film and Mila rapid-fire rattles off every par-for-the-course interview answer without hesitation.

“When I first sat down I was thinking, ‘You’re really hot’”, the Brit interview shared. “I found out about this about 20 minutes before I was gonna meet Mila. I was less nervous when we were talking about things that we sort of both liked, like semi-light beer.”

If only everyone could do it like her!

… and Justin Bieber Blames Us, Too!

You know, it blows my mind to seriously read dumb stuff like this, especially when the evidence is right in our faces!

But Justin Bieber, just like LiLo, is blaming us for taking recent moments in his life and blowing them far out of proportion, especially that whole “being two hours (or 40 minutes, if you believe him) late to his London concert” thing — and of course, that we’re to blame for getting that whole “underage drinking in a club” situation totally wrong.

So in his 19-year-old fashion, he took to his Twitter to attempt to defend himself by calling out media outlets as being the cause for so many of his troubles.

    “Rumors, rumors and more rumors,” the pop star posted Wednesday morning. “Nothing more nothing less. might talk about them 1 day. rt now im just gonna be positive. cant bring me down.”

    “Im focused on the good things in life. im blessed and not forgetting it. im giving back every day for it. cant phase me,” he wrote, before addressing the false reports and tabloid speculation, “Fake stories to sell papers i guess are part of the job. but im a good person. i know that. u cant tell me different. we know the truth.”

So, we’re spreading fake stories — oh, so having actual concert officials speak of your tardiness, actual workers at certain establishments you tried to party in telling us what really happened — and let’s not forget that whole being busted smoking weed (with pictures, no less) and letting idiots drive your cars around and more or less contributing to someone’s death — that’s all the media’s fault, right?

    “I understand it is part of the job to be judged…but judge me on the facts, judge me on the music, and be careful of the judgement u pass,” he said, sharing some newly 19-year-old wisdom. “but know this…im only judged by one power, and i serve him.”

Um — I think we are judging you on many facts, dear Justin. But of course, with that mellow haze you seem to be fond of, you don’t really see that clearly, now do you?

Oh, and in case you were wondering, he won’t be fined for turning up late to the 02 on Monday — which you know, further proves we’re making the whole thing up. Because, you know, that was totally the media’s doing.

14:59, Justin.

LiLo Blames The Media — Again

It’s getting way too easy for certain hot messes to point their fingers everywhere else when things are getting too hectic — you’ll see a certain pattern of that with the posts following this one — and of course, when you’re Lindsay Lohan, maybe that’s the better option.

So what have we done this time? Heavily distorted the truth regarding her lawyer, Mark Heller and his competence to be a proper lawyer, according to sources.

LiLo’s saying that “it’s all lies” when it comes to what we know about him — even though we doubt a judge would lie or the recording of any proceedings in court — and she plans to keep him on, no matter what we or any judge says.

In case you’re forgetting, Heller seems to keep screwing up from the little to the not-so-much and Judge James Dabney said that he was incompetent to perform law in California and is re-ordering Linds to court for the next hearing to “explain why she would be waiving her right to a lawyer who knows what he’s doing”.

Even her father, Michael has promised he’d pay for a more suitable prosecutor to fight her troubles, but she turned that down, too.

She has 12 days to decide what to do — the trial begins on the 18th — and if she sticks with Heller, chances are she may end up with an orange outfit to rock for a while.

I’m still waiting for that point where I’m supposed to be feeling sorry for her — hey, there’s always tomorrow.

Rihanna’s Back — Literally — To Her Old Instagram Habits

Well, it’s been a long while since one of her pictures via Instagram made some kind of interesting headline — so of course, the girl who claims it’s “Nobody’s Business” is making it her business by turning the other cheek.

Literally.

After the jump, you’ll find a new pic of Rihanna showing off some killer new Prada boots — and her ass in a g-string — for no other reason than she could.

    RiRi instagrammed the pic … along with the following message: “Gotcha bitch tip toeing on my marble flo’!!! Sick ass custom Prada boots! Miuccia you RULE!!! Thank you.”

Once upon a time, I swear the girl was mentioned more for her music than anything else.

Apparently, she still is doing that music thing, though — her Diamonds World Tour is set to kick off in a few days.

Anyway, if you’re into that sort of thing, head on after the jump for the somewhat NSFW pic.

70′s TV Icon Has Little Time Left

“I don’t think of dying,” 73-year-old actress Valerie Harper tells People in their new issue. “I think of being here now.”

Sadly, that time is falling extremely short for the popular actress in the classic television series, The Mary Tyler Moore Show: the woman who made Mary’s BFF Rhoda Morgenstern come to life, announced that she’s battling terminal brain cancer and that doctors have given her about 3 months to live.

    Harper, a lifelong nonsmoker who was previously diagnosed with lung cancer in March 2009, had been making the promotional rounds for her memoir, I, Rhoda, in January when she fell ill.

Harper’s character eventually was given a just-as-popular spin-off (entitled Rhoda) that lasted five seasons before being cancelled in 1978, but has appeared in many movies and television shows over the years including Sex and the City (her episode is actually one of my all-time favorites), The Simpsons and as of late, Drop Dead Diva.

May she hold onto the strength and positivity she exudes throughout this trying time.

If You’re Crazy And You Know It…

Usually, a stalker doesn’t seem to understand what going too far actually means — because that whole threat of “love me or die” is always OK — but in the case of actress Alyson Hannigan’s recent problem in that area, the guy seriously scares himself enough to know he needs to keep a good distance from the How I Met Your Mother star.

Back in February, she gained an order of protection against stalker John Hobbs, who had sent her “harassing messages online” and threatened to kill her.

But in court today, Hobbs actually agreed he was a threat to her and promised to do just what he was ordered to — stay 100 yards away from her and her family for three years.

Now, if only other people got the point so easily.

People like Edward Furlong, perhaps? Just sayin’.

Jon Stewart’s “Daily” Hiatus

It’s a rarity to take some time off from your job — to take on another job.

But when it comes to The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart, he’s doing just that.

The political comedian is taking off for 3 months this summer to direct his first film, Rosewater. The film is based off the memoir, Then They Came For Me: A Family’s Story Of Love, Captivity And Survival by Maziar Bahari, a journalist who spent 118 days in an Iranian prison after it was believed he was a spy.

And oddly enough, it was partially based on the fact that Bahari did an interview on The Daily Show.

    While Stewart is a comedian by trade, the movie will not be a comedy. He told The New York Times that that the film came about due to his friendship with Bahari after his appearances on the show. “It just kind of happened,” he said.

John Oliver, a British comedian (and correspondent for the show), will fill in for 8 weeks of Jon’s time off.

Justin Passes Out In London

Maybe he was having too much fun in ol’ London town.

At a third night appearance at London’s 02 (no word on when we arrived this time), Justin Bieber was definitely off his game and eventually left the stage, complaining of having trouble breathing.

Wow — I wonder what that possibly could’ve stemmed from.

According to a few eyewitnesses at the show, it appeared that the 19 year old actually passed out on stage following mentioning to the crowd that he wasn’t feeling too well.

After leaving the stage for a bit, Justin’s manager, Scooter Braun came out  told the crowd that the Biebs had been complaining of having trouble breathing since earlier and was being checked by EMTs on the scene — but Justin was well enough to come back out and finish the show in it’s entirety before heading directly to the hospital afterwards to get properly checked out.

The singer managed to share a pic of himself in a hospital bed — because you know, that’s what you do when you complain of having breathing troubles — and said he was already “getting better” and “figuring out what happened”.

So let’s see: a bad week that pretty much made you look more and more douche like as time went on and suddenly, a crisis that sends you to the hospital.

Yeah, nothing strange about that at all.

Well, he also could’ve possibly just been freaking out to news that once again, his friend Lil’ Twist took one of his cars on a joyride and managed to wreck it this time around.

Oh — and apparently, Twist fled the scene of the crime after crashing into cement poles outside of a liquor store.

And if you were keeping count, this is about the fifth time Justin’s buddy’s been reckless with one of his cars.

Let’s hope Justin will have a much better week beginning Monday — he should start by getting some new friends.

Kelly Osbourne Hospitalized

Just a few hours before Justin ended up in a hospital bed, Kelly Osbourne also had a scary moment that sent her to one — she had a seizure while filming an episode of E”s Fashion Police.

    Kelly was sitting in a chair, shooting the show in front of a full studio audience.  Melissa Rivers was sitting next to her, filling in for Giuliana Rancic.  Kelly turned to Melissa and said, “I don’t feel good,” and then she fell out of the chair and started shaking.  Melissa then turned Kelly’s head to help her.  Someone from the audience — some kind of emergency responder — then ran up and helped.

    Kelly came around a few moments later, but her handlers wanted to have her hospitalized anyway. We’re told it’s the first time Kelly has ever suffered a seizure.

Earlier word mentioned that the 28-year-old only fainted, but the full story was eventually released. No one knows what caused the seizure and no other details are known at the moment.
Kelly was already not doing so great after deciding not to fall into an open public toilet and spraining her ankle last week.
Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery for her.

A Joy-Less View

Say it ain’t so!

The final original cast member of morning girl-gab-fest The View, Joy Behar, has decided to leave the show after 16 and a half seasons.

She will remain on the show until August.

“It seemed like the right time,” she said in a statement to Deadline, which broke the news. “You reach a point when you say to yourself, ‘Do I want to keep doing this?’ There are other things on my plate I want to do.”

The 70-year-old mentioned that she wanted to get back into her stand-up, which she feels she’s been “neglecting” due to her View duties as well as talk shows on HLN and the now Al-Jazerra owned Current TV — which will end completely once the full takeover comes.

“I have a lot of friends there [at ABC], and I will miss everyone I’ve worked with because we have a family there,” she continued.  “It is a smart talk show because somebody of her stature is leading the conversation; Barbara [Walters] was one of the main reasons I took that job.”

Rumor has it that it’s not going to be the only change: the show is said to be headed for a “reboot” of sorts for season 17 — with the possibility of Walters and Elizabeth Hasselbeck also exiting.

ABC also released a statement praising Behar and saying she was “instrumental in the success of The View from the very beginning. We wish her all the best in this next chapter, and are thrilled that we have her for the remainder of the season.”

Onto bigger and better things!

Chris Brown’s (Douchey) Triple Play

It’s like Chris Brown is seriously on a douche roll. Mind you, it’s probably nothing new for him.

Following the beef with his own bodyguard and the valet at the charity event (which, by the way, he’s blaming for starting the whole thing by apparently making him pay $10 when everyone else was supposed to pay $5 — yeah, he’s seriously doing this), he decided to let loose Wednesday night and head to the Emerson Theatre in Hollywood.

Around 1:20 that morning, Chris decided to hop up from where he was sitting and headed to the DJ booth and grab the mic — and it was at that moment that one of Chris’ old problems turned up.

It was Drake — or at least, Drake’s newest song, “Started From The Bottom” — which started going from the speakers.

So what do you think Chris did? If you think he laughed off the obviously coincidental moment — oh, you’re really in the wrong place.

    Brown immediately told the DJ to stop playing the music. Addressing the crowd, Brown reportedly shouted out, “The DJ can play this s–t, but I want you all to know, F–k Drake!” and gave everyone the middle finger.

    Brown then proceeded to have the DJ cut the music again and began freestyle rapping, [a] source says. He began with a full performance of “As You Were” and followed with “Turn Up the Music.” What seemed to be a single performance turned into an all-out, full impromptu concert as he proceeded to sing “Beautiful People” and an additional five songs.

According to the eyewitness at the club, Chris was — obviously — drunk out of his ass. He and his posse guzzled on loads of vodka and Ace of Spades Rose before and after his “show”.

He eventually got dragged off stage around 2 a.m. and seemingly left without incident.

Justin Bieber Feels Better; Curses Out Paparazzi

What a difference a day makes.

Seems like last night’s little mishap of being short of breath left Justin Bieber has passed and left himfeeling well enough to take on a paparazzo early this morning in London.

As the Biebs and his bodyguards were exiting a hotel in London, he made a rush to his waiting car and accidentally bumped into a camera man — who pretty much told Justin to chill because it was almost an “assault”.

When his protection crew lashed back at the pap and said it was his fault for standing in the way, he had a less than stellar moment, cursing out Justin for being rude and that he should “f*ck off back to America”.

Little did anyone realize that the 19-year-old heard the entire diatribe… but it’s what he did next that brought upon the epic GIF you see before you:

    …the singer opened his SUV door and sprung out of the car … trying to attack the photog.  While Bieber’s bodyguard held him back, the singer screamed … “What the f**k you say?”

    The photog shot back — “You heard what I said … you heard what I f**king said, mate.” Bieber replied, “I’ll f**king beat the f**k out of you.”

The singer even attempted to throw punches at the man, but was held back by his security and put back into the car.

After things died down and the car drove away, the Biebs did — well, you know what’s coming.

    “Ahhhhh! Rough morning,” he tweeted. “Trying to feel better for this show tonight but let the paps get the best of me…”

    “Sometimes when people r shoving cameras in your face all day and yelling the worst thing possible at u…well I’m human,” he added. “Rough week.”

    “Not gonna let them get the best of me again,” he wrote.

We get it — you were pissed. But attempting to fight someone who probably could’ve wiped the floor with you over something you should be used to by now?

I think I’m starting to get why he and Chris Brown are such good friends.

1D’s Playing It Safe

No one’s gonna hit them where the sun don’t shine ever again.

Following a unintentionally hilarious moment where a shoe came a little too familiar with the crotch of member Harry Styles, One Direction has decided not to risk any more trouble and have banned glow sticks from their appearance in Belfast, Germany.

Shoes. Glow sticks. OK, we can go with this.

    Fans reeled with excitement as Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson took the stage for the first of four highly anticipated gigs in Northern Ireland last night, and security cracked down as overzealous fans flocked to see their pop idols.

    Umbrellas and plastic bottles were also banned from the Belfast Odyssey Arena, as well as recording equipment, professional cameras and glass items. Concertgoers were also asked to leave any prohibited items at the door and bags were searched before admittance was allowed.

Sounds more like a hip-hop concert. Next thing you know, they’ll start having metal detectors to see them.

Anyway, safety first, I suppose — but again. Glow sticks?

Revenge Is A Dish Best Served — By Demi?

It’s becoming more and more obvious by the moment that something deep definitely went down between Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore in order to cause them to separate and eventually head for divorce — but the icing on the cake came yesterday when Demi demanded spousal support from him, even though she’s loaded.

The thing is, she would never actually get any money from him because she’s definitely just as well off as he is — and maybe richer than that — so many believe that this is just some kind of attack for something that may have occurred between the two of them.

    That said … multiple sources connected with the former couple tell us … Demi and Ashton are in the midst of negotiating a financial settlement, and her lawyer knows the more Demi asks for, the better she’ll do in the end.

    We’re told they’re actually pretty close to striking a deal — and it WON’T involve spousal support.

I have a feeling we’ll be seeing some kind of “confidentiality clause” in there, too — but you didn’t hear it from me.

“Girl Meets World” — Gone Wild

Um… she looks hot and all, but she does know she’s about to appear on a Disney show, right?

Either way, Danielle Fishel, who will soon be reprising her role as the lovable Topanga Lawrence-Matthews on the upcoming Boy Meets World re-boot entitled Girl Meets World, is showing off some sexy curves on next month’s Maxim magazine.

Again — Disney show. But alright.

In the interview, which is a lot less racy — we find out some interesting things about her character on the hit ABC series and also some surprising personal stuff about the 31-year-old (who is a recent college grad and soon-to-be-wife — congrats on both!).

- the name of Topanga was actually conceived while show creator Michael Jacobs was driving past Topanga Canyon in California. “He says that if they had called him two miles later, I would’ve been named Canoga, which is the next exit”, she shared.

- contrary to popular belief, she never dated on-screen love, Ben Savage (Cory Matthews) off-screen: “No! That rumor was entirely my fault because I once said, on The Tyra Banks Show, that Ben and I went on a date, and that turned into ‘Danielle and Ben dated,’” she told the magazine. “We went on one date, when I was about 15, and by the time the dinner was over we realized mutually that we were more like family than lovers.”

- her music style is definitely not one that Topanga would ever cop to listening to: I’m huge into ’90s rap,” she admittedsaid. “It’s my jam. My all-time favorite album is Snoop Dogg’s Doggy­style. And if you ever really want to see me embarrass my­self, put on some Notorious B.I.G. and watch me grab my crotch and mouth all the words. It’s really embarrassing, but I can’t help myself.”

You know what? I think she just became a little more awesome to me.

Chris Brown Is Still Angry; No One Is Surprised

It only took about two days for Chris Brown to disprove pretty much every high mark Rihanna attempted to put out there about him in her recent Elle interview — especially that whole line about them both being “adults” — but truth be told, it’s not as if we should be surprised at this.

Once again, Breezy has managed to get not into one but two reported altercations over extremely avoidable reasons — in less than 24 hours.

The first took place on a plane while the singer was in the Bahamas. According to a report, he got into some kind of argument with his bodyguard, Big Pat, that apparently got so bad, the bodyguard refused to get back on the plane.

    An airport worker tells the Bermuda Sun, “I’m not sure of the details of what happened on the plane but his plane came in, got serviced and everything was finishing and they were getting ready to leave. Then there was a stall.”

Big Pat, Chris and another man exited into the customs area where Pat said he refused to travel with the group — so Chris left him there and Pat found his own way back to New York.

Chris instead flew out to Los Angeles for a charity event — where incident number two took place. You can read about that after the jump.

At PINZ, a popular bowling alley, Chris decided his rage was still on high and flipped out on a parking valet over $10.

That’s right — a singer who probably has more money than you can count in a day went off over 10 bucks.

Here’s the situation (which was caught on video, by the way — from two different angles): following the event, Chris went to get his car from the valet, who couldn’t legally turn the car back over without being paid.

Rather than just pay up, guess what Chris did?

If you think he went away to get change, you’re in the wrong place.

    After the valet made it clear he couldn’t release the car without the cash … the singer and his posse surrounded the guy … and at one point you can hear Chris say, “F*ck ten dollars.”

    Sources at the scene tell us Brown was angry because he was only at the event for 30 minutes and felt like he was getting ripped off by the valet.

    As tensions grew,  someone in Chris’ posse can be heard saying. “We got the money … don’t worry about it.”

    But Chris DID worry about it … and in a threatening manner, told the valet, “We gonna turn this whole thing on out.”

Kim (Almost) Puts Her Baby In Danger

Part of me wants to believe this wasn’t just something that will eventually turn up on her show, but with her….

Anyway, Kim Kardashian had a bit of a scare while flying home from Paris last night when she felt sharp pains in her stomach and it scared her enough to rush to her doctor to make sure her unborn was alright.

After bawling it out on the flight, she headed straight to the doctor who told her all was well with little baby Kimye — but that she was just having some “flu-like” symptoms and should probably relieve the stress she was going through (the divorce proceedings with Kris Humphries, moving into a new place, etc.)

She’s been ordered to rest up for the time being.

Miley’s Over Twitter; Might Be Over Fiance

Well, this is one of the more confusing things Miley Cyrus has done in some time — not to even mention her hairstyle choice (which I’ve gotten used to).

After constant screeches from blogs saying that she and fiance Liam Hemsworth were on the rocks, the 20-year-old decided to pump the brakes on social media yesterday.

    “I am so sick of La. And sick of the lies that come with it. I didn’t call off my wedding,” she wrote, adding, “Taking a break from social media. #draining.”

    “my new music is gonna shut everyone up,” she later added. “not discussing anything but my music from now on.”

The rumors began of trouble with her gorgeous soon-to-be hubby last week, when Hemsworth was said to have been spotted with Mad Men star January Jones at a pre-Oscar bash.

However, Miley herself isn’t really helping things out to calm the storm — she was spotted just yesterday with loads of jewelry on, but definitely not her engagement ring. Which of course, is no big thing — but again, doesn’t really lend credence to that whole “all is well” claim.

The Can’t Be Tamed singer’s new music that’s “gonna shut everyone up” should be hitting us soon — the star recently signed with Larry Rudolph, who is best known as being Britney Spears’ manager.

Jessica Simpson Is Sharing Way Too Much

Who knew pregnancy could give someone diarrhea of the mouth?

An extremely bubbly Jessica Simpson has been making the talk show rounds for the upcoming season of her reality show, Fashion Star, and along the way has revealed some things the world wasn’t yet aware of — and some things the world never wanted to know ever.

On last night’s Jimmy Kimmel Live, the 32-year-old mother to be accidentally let slip that it will be a boy joining older sister (her first child) Maxwell — after making a quip that she didn’t realize “a wiener can make” her “nauseous”.

I kid you not, people. You can’t make this stuff up.

“Well, I guess I just told the world that I’m having a boy”, she clarified.

Um… sure.

Just the day before, she sat on Ellen Degeneres’ couch where she expressed that she was truly surprised that she was with child so soon after her first.

“I don’t know [how it happened], apparently protection was just thrown out the window!”

Way to be a role model there. Stop talking now, Jessica.

But congratulations! Check out the Jimmy clip after the jump!

Ashton’s Ex Is Greedy

 
This is obviously not a money issue, but it does make you wonder what really went down between Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher — and it has to be big considering Demi just filed documents in her divorce from the Two and A Half Men star demanding he pay spousal support and her lawyer fees.

Moore definitely has way more money than her soon-to-be-ex husband — she’s been in the Hollywood game for eons before he ever was — so it’s an interesting turn to see her be the one request spousal support and not him.

    Although there are reports that settlement negotiations have broken down, we’re told it’s not true — both sides are negotiating and they expect a quick resolution.

    It’s almost out of the question Ashton will have to pay Demi spousal support — a judge certainly would never order it.

The only thing they seem to agree on is that the split happened for “irreconcilable differences”. The two have been separated since November of 2011 — and still aren’t divorced.

Well, at Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries still beat them out in that department — they were separated since August of that year and are still going at it, too.

Only in Hollywood, y’all.

Rihanna Thinks Things Will Be Great With Chris

It’s almost a little scary to nearly read the very same words that her TV counterpart said earlier in the week via a somewhat fictionalized story, but Rihanna really believes that she and Chris Brown are destined to make it work this time around.

“You don’t have that feeling with everybody, so when you have it, you don’t want to let go of it. I would definitely say that [Brown] is the one I have that kind of relationship with”, she said to Elle UK for their upcoming issue, regarding her now public reconnection with the man who beat her back in 2009.

“[We've got] “a great friendship that’s unbreakable”, she continued. “Now that we’re adults, we can do this right. We got a fresh start, and I’m thankful for that.”

In case you were wondering, if we’re speaking from an age standpoint — she was already an “adult”: she was a month from her 22nd birthday and he was 20… but we’ll let her continue.

As for that headline about her wanting to be a mother, it seems like that’s way down the line, but definitely something she wants, among peace in her life.

“[Five years from now] I’ll have set some things up so I don’t have to tour for the rest of my life, even though I love touring”, she expressed. “I want health and happiness in five years. I want to be healthy and happy.”

She may want peace — but she swears she’ll never be a victim again, which is why she has those tattoos of guns on her body, calling them “symbols of strength”.

It seems like Riri is facing life with a “put it all out there” attitude — especially with those many nearly nude Instagram photos — but it’s all part of who she is as a person.

    “I instagram everything about my life,” she says, “whether it’s smoking pot, in a strip club, reading a Bible verse—how crazy, I know!—or hanging out with my best friend, who happens to be Chris.”

    “That’s why I’m posting pictures of myself smoking pot, to tell the truth about myself,” Rihanna explains. “I’ve got so much to think about, why bring all this extra s–t by being dishonest?”

I already think she’s being quite dishonest to herself, which is sad in itself — but it seems like she’s going to live her life as unapologetic as she chooses to.

Let’s just hope it doesn’t backfire.

Too Late To Sue For Elmo’s “Tickling”

You snooze, you lose.

At least that’s what Kevin Clash is saying to the three men who are suing him for sexual misconduct when they were minors.

The former voice behind Elmo is hoping to get all of their lawsuits thrown out because he believes there has been too much time since the abuse occurred in order for them to get any sort of restitution.

And no one is actually noticing he’s pretty much admitting he was guilty now, right? OK, let’s move on.

    According to Clash, the statute of limitations on the sexually-motivated crimes he’s accused of committing is six years — and the crimes in each instance allegedly occurred more than ten years ago.

    As we reported, Clash has been sued by the three men — each of whom claims Clash engaged in sexual activity with them when they were minors, causing them mental and psychological damage.

According to all three, it took them time to realize just how damaging the abuse was — but Clash isn’t going for it and hopes to get all of their cases tossed.

Again — he just admitted his guilt. Anyone? Anyone?

And if anyone else remembers — there was a fourth accuser. Just sayin’.

Unchaining “Django” For A Second Time

If there’s one thing Quentin Tarantino seems to like, it’s controversy — and he damn sure got a lot of it for the now Oscar winning flick, Django Unchained.

Seriously — the instances of people getting upset about the (over)use of the n-word and the whole bout of making slavery into an action film had loads of tongues wagging.

Hell, even toys based on characters from the movie caused some issues.

So of course, it would make perfect sense for him to make a sequel, right?

Well, seems like Kerry Washington, who played Broomhilda in the movie, thinks it’s a possibility.

“That would be super fun, wouldn’t it”, she questioned at the Oscars. “There has been a little bit of talk but I don’t know where Quentin is on it. He’s always got so many pots on the stove. But I do kind of want to see what happens after [Broomhilda] pulls that gun out. She’s pretty amazing.”

Um…. I think they should seriously reconsider this.

Another Spears Headed Down The Aisle

Well, the older one didn’t have too much luck — maybe her younger sister will have a better chance!

Former Nickelodeon kid, Jamie Lynn Spears announced her engagement to her boyfriend of three years, Jamie Watson.

Yes — Jamie and Jamie. We hear the squeals of cuteness.

    The 21-year-old shared on Saturday an Instagram pic of her and Watson, 30, hugging while flashing her ring finger with the caption: “Guesssss what??????”

    The mother to 4-year-old Maddie then followed up with a closeup of her bling, with the hashtag “he did good.”‘

Sadly, older sister Britney didn’t have the best ending with her fiance, Jason Trawick — the two split up earlier this year.

Let’s hope Jamie has a much easier road to the chapel. Congratulations!

Justin Continues His “Whine-teenth” Birthday Bash

… and once again, the Biebs continues to straddle the douche-like way of life.

Following a not-so-celebatory 19th birthday blowout, Justin Bieber is taking to his mass following on Instagram, taking on the Cirque du Soleil Soir club in London, blaming them for the entire situation of shutting his party down.

    “The funny moment when people believe I brought underage people to a club.. U think Will [Smith] is letting his 14 year old in a club, I don’t think so.. 2nd I love how the club wanted to give the press another reason to why we didn’t stay at their weak ass club so they wouldn’t look bad for me walking in and right back out,” Bieber wrote in a caption next to a black box. “i said m ‘worst bday’ but that was due to dummies pushing over my fans and being overly aggressive. Btw it wasn’t the worst bday cuz all my friends from back home flew in I was just mad in the moment.”

Mind you, the club already apologized for having to basically kick everyone out for underage attendance and possible drinking — which Justin allegedly provided for by buying bottles — and said it wasn’t a personal attack whatsoever, considering they had enjoyed his patronage before.

In his usual way, he followed it up with a half-assed apology saying he only vented because he needed to “not be quiet” and that he was going to “chill with friends”.

You know? For some reason, I just don’t “believe” him one bit. Just a feeling.

Seriously, kid. Grow up.

“Idol” Cheating — The Right Way

This is not going to end well.

When American Idol starts up it’s live shows tomorrow night (the top 10 girls head out first), there will be a new option to making sure your favorite stays in the competition: it’s called a SuperVote.

Normally, viewers would have to either call, text or as of last year, vote online for their favorite competitor and were allowed up to fifty votes each.

But with SuperVote, now fans can with one click, immediately add their fifty votes to one particular person or distribute them among their favorites.

    This follows a 2011 announcement that allowed fans to vote online. As always, viewers will still be able to vote via a phone call after the show, but now it seems like passionate fans won’t have to spend as much time texting massive amounts of votes to keep their favorite in the game. The new system will kick off tomorrow night, when the 10 girl semifinalists… take the stage.

Wow, talk about taking the lazy route out — but it’s sure to tip the scales in someone’s untalented favor if it’s not used properly.

And let’s be real — it won’t be.

LiLo Can “Win” Without Charlie’s Help

Alright, so we all saw this coming — but there was no reason to be this rude about it.

Following a surprise offer from Charlie Sheen to take on a “mentoring” role in her life, Lindsay Lohan has given her thoughts on the situation, telling the actor that there’s no way she’d go to him for that kind of help and that he should shut up when it comes to her life in the media.

Yeah — because it was so clean before this, huh?

    Sources close to LiLo tell TMZ … while she appreciates everything Sheen has done for her — and he’s done a lot — she would NEVER take him as a mentor. She’s saying she knows her life is “out of control,” but doesn’t think the precept, “It takes one to know one,” is the way to go.

    She says she’s grateful Charlie gave her $100k for her back taxes and supported her in “Scary Movie 5.” Lindsay says she talks to Charlie from time to time … but gripes he has no business talking about her to the media.

LiLo is said to be working with a therapist that’s helping her to get on the right track that will last for a week.
No word on Charlie’s thoughts regarding Lindsay’s decision — but you know it’s coming.

Guess someone’s running fo’ their life — to the bank!

Viral sensation Sweet Brown has taken her surprising catch phrase (“Ain’t nobody got time fo’ dat!”) and has started on the road to semi-fame, turning up in some interesting commercials as of late for a local dentist, a real estate company and a lawyer firm.

But it just might be the cusp of something bigger as there’s word that the woman who took the world by firestorm (see what I did there?) is on her way to the big screen!

    …according to Gawker, the Oklahoma City native is taking Hollywood by storm. Sweet Brown has landed a co-hosting stint on the reality TV series Cheaters and has signed on for a role in Tyler Perry’s big screen adaptation of his play, A Madea Christmas.

    Sweet Brown will join Perry’s cast which includes Tika Sumpter, Chad Michael Murray, and Kathy Najimy.

Now here’s the question: will anybody have time for this?

Check out the three commercials after the jump and see if she can measure up.

Barbara’s “View” Return!

Welcome back, Ms. Walters!

An exuberant, healthy and funny Barbara Walters made her return to The View this morning after being forced to miss her morning show for six weeks after battling the chickenpox and a concussion she suffered after fainting due to the illness.

After a heavy dose of applause and love from the audience, the 83-year-old ABC mainstay expressed her gratitude and appreciation for all of the well wishes she received during her time off.

“Today after a lot of scratching and rest, I am fine and I am healthy,” Walters said to even more applause.

It turns out the reason she actually stayed away so long was the concussion she suffered after falling onto a marble floor at the home of British Prime Minister, David Cameron.

According to Walters, the chicken pox had passed long ago (she got them from a celebrity she didn’t name who unknowingly was dealing with a bout of shingles — which can give another person the chickenpox if they’ve never had it before), but it was the subsequent head injury that needed time to heal.

“The pox came and went weeks ago. The head injury took longer,” she mentioned.  “People have said I should have my head examined. I did and I’m fine. ”

Today’s show was also filled with celebrities leaving messages of good health for the anchorwoman, including a surprise appearance by close friend and Mayor of New York City, Michael Bloomberg — which left the normally graceful Walters in tears.

Glad to have her back. You can check out the full clip of Babs explaining it herself after the jump.

The Whitney Files

Even 13 months after her tragic death, the life of Whitney Houston still manages to shock and awe — and if a 128-page-record released by the FBI today has any say, the singer definitely had just as much insanity outside of her life as she did in it.

Due to many requests for the info due to the Freedom of Information Act, we now know that the “I Will Always Love You” songstress had quite a couple of interesting things going on that involved actual federal help — including an extortion plot from a woman who claimed to have “personal info” on the singer, which Whitney, and her father John eventually paid off in an undisclosed amount (the woman originally demanded $250,000).

Also interesting is a man who seemed to get angrier and angrier that none of his fan mail was ever answered by the singer — over 70 of them, according to one note.

    “Miss Whitney, why can’t you respond to my 70 plus letters,” he wrote. “Miss Whitney, I really am in love with you. Please, believe me. You probably think that I am crazy. Well, meebe [sic] I am. I just can’t give up.”

    Observed the FBI agent looking into the matter: “In conversation with [the individual] it was apparent that he is obsessed with Whitney Houston.”

    The investigator went on to describe the man as a “loner,” but after interviewing him, the agent concluded “he believed this ‘crazy idea’ would have hurt Houston’s reputation so he did not follow through on it.”

Sometimes, we honestly forget all of the bad celebrities have with all of the good and sometimes, excess good. Whitney’s world seemed to spin faster than most and unfortunately, it never truly seemed to slow down even behind the scenes.

Better Than The Original: Day 1

So, I figured I’d try something a little different here this week, TP readers!

Welcome to “Better Than The Original?”, a week of music posts from some of your favorite artists that shed light (and hopefully, good opinions) on different takes, samples and extra nods that you may not have known before regarding some of their biggest singles!

I’ll be doing this all this week with many different artists and versions!

Let’s start off  simple for the first entry:

The girl with the massive voice, Christina Aguilera, has had her share of great success (even though as of late, not so much — 2010′s Bionic and last year’s Lotus seem to be headed in the same down direction) and some awesome songs — but it all started officially with the release of 1999′s “Genie In A Bottle”, which brought the Mickey Mouse Club star to new heights and started her road to superstardom.

But I bet you didn’t realize that the sweet pop rendition of the track you all know and love wasn’t the true first take.

Rumor has it that another version; one with a completely different sound, was set to be released as the first single from her debut album. This version (eventually released and  labelled as the “Eddie Arroyo Rhythm Mix”) apparently didn’t fit the “pop” sound they wanted for the album and it was scrapped.

But there was one problem — the video had already been shot, so it was quickly re-edited with the “new” version that was eventually released (which also explains why if you look closely, the “main edit” really never syncs up the right way with the vocals).

Don’t believe me? Head on after the jump and check out both versions of the video — the “Eddie Arroyo” version was leaked a couple of years back and features more scenes not used in the “main” edit!

Fantasia’s Unwanted Shots Get Major Shade

Even when you win American Idol, life isn’t always a fairy tale.

Season 3′s Fantasia Barrino is definitely realizing her star power doesn’t amount to much after Jet Magazine posted a shot of the singer with a recent article that was taken 10 years ago on it’s front cover, even though the singer sent them newer pics that showed off the “new direction” she’s taking in her career (Jet rejected the new shots).

    On Feb. 20, Fantasia tweeted an Instagram photo of the cover with “FALSE FALSE FALSE” written over it. “This saddens Me!! It is clear that this picture is 10 Years Old and JET magazine Puts it on the Cover!! After I send them the NEW LOOK AND DIRECTION.. SAD!!,” she wrote.

    “I WANT A PUBLIC APOLOGY FROM JET,” she added. “Now im not sure if the interview is correct. SEE!! American they and use me as they crash Dummy BUT NO MORE. IF I DONT STAND FOR SOMETHING ILL FALL FOR ANYTHING.”

Eventually, ‘Tasia got her wish and her apology — but it came with a shady price: the editor of Jet, Mitzi Miller blasted the 28-year-old and brought reference to the singer’s “functionally illiterate” life with a Facebook post.

“The fact that I wasted an hour of my workday writing a press release to address an issue created by a person who cannot even read it is just… #whyiwannaBahousewife”, she shared.

Obviously realizing that was probably the most wrong way to apologize, another apology was issued for the “thoughtless comment made during a moment of frustration. It was unprofessional and not representative of the JET mission, which is to uplift.”

I’m guessing she won’t be using that medium to promote her upcoming album, The Side Effects of You.

M.J’s Former Doctor Gives Up The Goods

Seems like all that trash Dr. Arnold Klein was talking toward the US Marshalls were for naught.

After taking a “come-and-get-it” attitude toward the threat of him getting arrested for not turning over paintings and cars to a bankruptcy trustee, he spilled the deets on exactly where everything was once the cops indeed did come to arrest him.

But you were talking all that loud stuff before, man! What happened?

    A rep for the U.S. Marshals Service tells TMZ … deputies went down to Klein’s home in Palm Springs, CA to arrest him [Tuesday] morning … when Klein suddenly felt the urge to spill his guts.

    We’re told … Klein (Michael Jackson’s former doctor) informed the deputies exactly where to find the art and the Ferrari — so officials decided not to arrest him because they felt he was cooperative.

If the info is true, he’ll be able to avoid jail… but not the laughter from this.

Which I’m now providing. Heavily.

Lindsay’s Lawyer Is A Joke, So Says The Judge

Yet another day Lindsay Lohan is probably wishing she never fired Shawn Holley.

Judge Jim Nabney, the one leading her current perjury trial, called out LiLo’s new lawyer, Mark Heller as being “incompetent” and relayed that the actress should either get some one who actually knows what they’re doing or waive her right to a competent lawyer in California.

Seems like Heller’s been screwing up since the beginning, messing up on documents that wouldn’t fly in the California law system, him attempting to get the charges dropped after saying Lohan wasn’t properly “Mirandized” (when she didn’t need to be) and an overall bumbling demeanor.

    The judge went on to say Heller doesn’t have a clue about criminal law, questioning his competence to handle the case.  The California lawyer who’s sponsoring Heller to appear in Lindsay’s case didn’t show up today, and the judge made note of that … not that it would really matter, because the sponsor never practiced law a day in her life.

    Prosecutor Terry White made it clear … he’s ready for trial on March 18, where Lindsay will have to face the music in her lying-to-cops case.

    Heller was short on the law but long on platitudes … saying the judge needed to show Lindsay “mercy and compassion.”

While “mercy and compassion” might have been the rule of thumb for the actress, she was more than likely nursing off a hangover — she decided to bail on today’s hearing and was seen last night clubbing it up in NYC.

After the hearing, Heller said he didn’t believe he was wrong for the job, but just that things go differently in the New York judicial system.

Sounds like confusion all over — which makes sense considering who we’re dealing with here.

Usher’s Stepson’s Killer Arrested

The shocking death of Kile Glover last year was a truly heartbreaking moment for Usher and his former wife, Tameka Foster and now, the person who caused the accident has been arrested.

Jeffrey Simon Hubbard was indicted on Thursday by a Grand Jury in Hall County, Georgia and arrested this morning. He faces charges of homicide by a vessel, serious injury by a vessel and reckless operation of a vessel.

Last July, 11-year-old Kile was vacationing with his birth father when Hubbard’s jet ski collided into him while he was on an inflatable raft. The young boy suffered severe brain damage and never woke up from his coma. He was removed from life support two weeks later.

Hubbard is currently being held without bail and will face a judge in hopes to be bailed this weekend.

Popular 70′s TV Show Actress Dies

Sadly, her “day” has come.

One Day At A Time star Bonnie Franklin, who played matriarch Anne Romano on the hit series of the 70′s and early 80′s, succumbed to her battle with pancreatic cancer this morning. She was 69 years old.

Her role on the Norman Lear series was  believed was a “notable… showcase in feminism” (she was one of the first television characters who demanded she was called “Ms.”; a nod to the fact that Anne Romano was a divorcee) and allowed her to be nominated for two Golden Globes and an Emmy.

She was proceeded in death by husband Marvin Minoff (a film producer) in 2009 and had no children, other than the ones from her hit show.

She will be missed.

There are certain comments you hear from celebs who want babies and think, “Wow… I can totally see them being a parent.”

Lindsay Continues Taking The Wrong Route

I guess we can’t even feign surprise at Lindsay Lohan nowadays. I mean, the girl makes the wrong choices in, well — everything.

Seriously. Everything.

This time around, it turns out the whatever she’s doing now actress was given a pretty sweet deal once again to remain out of jail: to head to residential rehab for a significant amount of time as opposed to her possibly being locked up for perjury regarding last year’s car crash while filming Liz and Dick.

Her lawyer, Mark Heller, refused to take it.

When prosecutors somewhat relented and said that they would allow her to stick around for only 30 days as opposed to their initial offer of 60 (the “significant amount”), Heller still turned it down.

    We’re told Heller and prosecutors have not given up, and one source connected with the talks tells TMZ, “Negotiations are ongoing.”

    BUT … sources say Heller and Lindsay are not in lockstep — he’s willing to accept a plea that involves counseling and possibly some sort of rehab, but Lindsay says she’s not accepting any of it because to her it sounds like “punishment for something I didn’t do.”

Something she didn’t do? Really?

Prosecutors already see this one going to trial, which is set to begin March 18.

Can we just send her to jail now for blatant stupidity? Because that should be a crime in itself.

SVU Killed Their “Rihanna”

Well, that was surprising.

The hotly anticipated dramatization of Rihanna and Chris Brown’s relationship on Law and Order: Special Victims Unit hit the airwaves last night and while there were some mixed reviews for how the episode actually played out, there were a lot of close replays of what actually went down following that February evening between the two singers.

On the episode entitled “Funny Valentine”, two singers named Mischa Green (Riri) and Caleb Bryant (Chris — but you could’ve figured that out on your own) are in a loving relationship with each other in the public eye, but behind the scenes, there are beatdowns, threats and no one who is willing to talk about what they’ve witnessed on countless occasions.

Mischa keeps baffling police officer’s investigations, saying she’ll speak one moment and refusing to do so the next — repeatedly, even when Caleb ends up shooting her mentor, Brass (that would be the Jay-Z) square in the chest at a single release party for a song the two have recorded together.

As a tongue in cheek joke, one of the detectives quips that the twosome “should go on a double date with Chris Brown and Rihanna”.

But unlike the two of them, this story ends differently and sadly, in a way most domestic violence relationships end.

Following the dismissal of the murder case (which Mischa lies on the stand about), the two run off to Bermuda to get away from everyone’s eyes.

    Caleb (Chris) and Mischa (Rihanna) are having a romantic moment on a private yacht when she asks about a text message on his phone. Caleb (Chris) says, “Haven’t you learned to mind your own business?”

    The next scene is a reporter at a memorial for Mischa (Rihanna) … whose body was found in Bermuda … floating next to the yacht.

In an eerie connection, today marks the anniversary of the two reconciling back in 2009 following the attack.

It’s hard to tell if SVU was trying to send out a personal message to Riri about her recent reconnection with Chris, but — well, head on after the jump for my personal thoughts.

The similarities in the episode were crazy– the apologetic interview “Caleb” gave on Wendy Williams, the duet release (although truthfully, Riri and Chris had two), the mention of “Mischa’s” grandmother and even the final moments where Caleb and Mischa ended up in the Bahamas (which is what happened directly following the initial story of abuse between Rihanna and Chris) — but I didn’t expect it to end the way it did.

Which is weird in itself, because sadly, that is how it usually does end.

I won’t lie — tears started to fill my eyes almost immediately.

I read something on Twitter: “The biggest part of this SVU episode is that everyone seems to care more about “Rihanna” than Rihanna…” It’s scary how true that is.

I don’t know what’s going on in their relationship right now and frankly, I don’t care — but I seriously hope others watched this episode and seriously saw just how things of that nature can reach such a brutal conclusion.

That was an intense episode — but damn it if every moment of it wasn’t needed.

NPH and His Man Are Still Going Strong

Must’ve been a slow news day for the National Enquirer.

The tabloid rag ran a story that the awesome Neil Patrick Harris had called off his wedding to fiance David Burtka after a huge fight while going to a big party.

But of course, that was a huge load of crap and the How I Met Your Mother star went to his Twitter to set the record straight in his truly awesome sort of way.

“The Nat Enq is cray cray. We’ve never had a wedding date, just engaged (Prop 8 and all). We’re on a cruise as I write. He’s rad. All good,” he wrote.

The two, who have been engaged since 2006 (although it wasn’t announced until 2011) are the parents of twins Gideon and Harper.

Richard Simmons Sweated Something Else Out

All of that exercise shook something loose up there.

Access Hollywood Live is probably regretting asking fitness guru Richard Simmons to appear on their show on Tuesday where things just got from bad to worse to completely messy.

After possibly offending a group of people with an “Indian” accent, the 64-year-old then put a wooden bowl on his head, broke into a Southern drawl and having a diatribe regarding biscuits.

But that was nothing compared to what happened after now-former DWTS professional Maksim Chmerkovskiy sat on the couch next to him.

    The “Sweatin’ to the Oldies” star pretended to throw up in his mouth, and then pretended to walk off set. Simmons then launched into Barbra Streisand’s song “The Way We Were.”

    After being told to sit down by the show’s hosts, Simmons made everyone uncomfortable by doing some leg lifts while perched on a couch. As the hosts tried to gain control of the show, Simmons noted that he wouldn’t have shown up if he knew Chmerkovskiy would be appearing. “I would have done the Animal Channel,” he said.

And here you thought exercise was supposed to keep you healthy — apparently, not mentally.

You can check out the very odd moments after the jump. We apologize profusely for the leg lifts.
