Which Reality TV Star Earns The Most?

 Which Reality TV Star Earns The Most?

If you’ve ever wondered WHY people do reality TV shows, this list should answer your question. The Daily Beast has made a list of the Top 10 earners in reality TV for 2010, and US Magazine.com summarized it.



So who’s at the top? Kim Kardashian, who earned an estimated $6 million this year. And as you can see from looking at the list of people below, it pays to be a Kardashian: both Khloe and Kourtney made it into the top 10!
  1. Kim Kardashian ($6 million)
  2. Lauren Conrad ($5 million)
  3. Bethenney Frankel ($4 million)
  4. Audrina Patridge ($3.5 million)
  5. Kate Gosselin ($3.5 million)
  6. Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino ($3 million)
  7. Khloe Kardashian ($2.5 million)
  8. Kourtney Kardashian ($2.5 million)
  9. DJ Pauly D ($2 million)
  10. Kendra Wilkinson ($2 million)
One thing that surprises me about this list (I’m trying not to be sick- LOL) is that of the ‘Jersey Shore’ group, DJ Pauly D outearned Snooki. I figured The Situation was earning the most, but I thought Snooki would be the next highest paid out of the group.

Any surprises for you?

Nicole Kidman Likes Unusual Pets

Nicole Kidman Likes Unusual Pets

Nicole Kidman was on Conan O’Brien to promote her new movie, Rabbit Hole, and revealed to the talk show host that she has some interesting ‘pets’ on her Nashville, Tennessee farm – Alpacas!
“We have alpacas on our farm because they’re so pretty. They have lovely long lashes. I think they’re really cool. I always wanted a mix of weird animals but that’s the weirdest we have.”
“You can walk them around on a leash and we have a two year old who loves them.”


Well I guess most kids would love an Alpaca as a pet! It sure beats the typical dog or cat that most kids get! And Nicole revealed that she wants to add more animals to her farm, namely snakes!
“I want to get some more weird animals eventually, I’d love to get snakes, I love them. They might not be a good idea around the baby though.”
Ugh, just typing the word ‘snakes’ gives me the creeps! I couldn’t imagine anyone wanting one as a pet! Hmmm, I would never peg Nicole Kidman for the kind of person who liked exotic animals!

John Mayer Is Moving On Up!

John Mayer Is Moving On Up!

John Mayer might be selling his current LA home for a loss, but that doesn’t seem to be affecting him! The singer has reportedly leased a new $8 million Mediterranean mansion with 7 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms and a recording studio just outside of L.A.!


Why does one person need 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms?! Mayer also has a $2.1 million home in New York. All of a sudden I wish I could sing! Mayer is asking $1.3 million for his LA Home, which is less than the reported $1.75 million that he paid in 2006. I guess that the singing star is doing ok despite the recession!

So if anyone is in the market for a home in L.A., looks like you can get a good deal!

Lindsay Lohan Can’t Go Home For Christmas

Lindsay Lohan Can’t Go Home For Christmas

Well it certainly won’t be a white Christmas for Lindsay Lohan! The starlet, who is still in rehab at the Betty Ford Center in Malibu, will not be allowed to travel to New York to spend the holidays with her mom and the rest of her family. A source told RadarOnline that;
“Dina wants Lindsay to go home to Long Island for Christmas, but that won’t be happening. Judge Elden Fox was very clear with his order that he wanted her to stay in rehab until after New Year’s. “Lindsay won’t be allowed to leave the state of California for Christmas – period. It was never a consideration for Thanksgiving and it won’t be for Christmas. Dina wants her home, but her dad Michael is supporting whatever Lindsay’s treatment team is recommending.”


Well I think it makes total sense that Lindsay isn’t allowed to travel, and honestly I think it’s best for her to remain close to her rehab. And while Lindsay’s dad, Michael is fine with spending the holidays in California with his daughter (because he’s never one to pass up a photo opp!) her mom, Dina, isn’t so happy with that idea.

Read about Dina’s thoughts after the jump
Dina hasn’t agreed to be anywhere under the same roof with Michael. Lindsay’s counsellors recognise that family is very important to Lindsay and they are really hoping to get the entire family under one roof for some much needed family therapy. Michael has agreed to do it. So far, nothing from Dina indicating she is even considering it.”
I really hope that for Lindsay’s sake her parents can put their differences aside and make peace. It is only one day out of the year, so it would be nice if she could spend it with her entire family. It doesn’t mean that they all have to be together, but if they are it would be nice if it was pleasant! The source also says that her family might be a cause of concern for Lindsay;
“The holidays can be a cause for concern with all of the angst, forced familial time and dealing with recovery. Mix in parents that don’t get along and Lindsay is going to be tested – and that isn’t a bad thing.
“Lindsay recognises how blessed she is to be given this amazing opportunity to get and stay sober.”
Hopefully she doesn’t fall off the wagon again this time. I’m not holding my breath though for Dina and Michael to make the holidays easy though!

Julianna Margulies Is A Sexy “Bad Wife”

‘The Good Wife’ star Julianna Margulies decided to turn the tables for Harper’s Bazaar and do a photoshoot as a sexy “bad wife.” LOVE these pics (probably in part because I love her so much ;) )! She also talked about herself and her role.

On playing Alicia in ‘The Good Wife’:
“It’s a challenge because she’s so far from who I am. I’m not saying I’m a crazy sexual person, but she’s such a repressed Wasp. I think the beautiful part of this journey she is on as a woman is that now she’s finding out who she is through her work and also discovering what sexy is to her.”

Ashlee Simpson Talks About Jessica Simpson’s Relationship

Ashlee Simpson Talks About Jessica Simpson’s Relationship

Who would know better than a sister? Ashlee Simpson was talking about celebrating the holidays with her newly engaged sister and her fiance, Eric Johnson, and she said that Jessica Simpson is at a good stage in her life.
“She is genuinely very, very happy, and you go to their house and it’s warm and cozy, and it’s a good feeling. And he’s just a good guy.”


I LOVE hearing that. I’ve been rooting for Jessica ever since she came onto the scene back in the day. She just seems like such a sweet girl. Ashlee adds that she’s looking forward to the day that Jessica and Eric can give Bronx a playmate!
“Of course it would be wonderful if it happened. We were actually over there yesterday, and Jessica is a wonderful godmother, and aunt, so I know she would be a wonderful mother.”
There’s been so much talk about the timing of Jessica and Eric announcing their engagement right around the time of Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey announcing theirs. I’m sure after they’re both happily married it won’t end there. The next thing will be who’s going to get pregnant first.

Love It Or Hate It: Eva Mendes

 Love It Or Hate It: Eva Mendes

Eva Mendes has been making the rounds at the Marakech film festival. Yesterday I was IN LOVE with her outfit! Of course, Eva looks gorgeous in these pictures, like she always does. But I’m not sold on the dress today.

The color is nice. Her heels and clutch are nice. The hair and makeup are nice. But the ruffles? I’m not trying to be mean, but the whole thing reminds me a little bit of a cupcake. Then again, it is kind of a sweet look.

What do you think about Eva’s styling choices here? Is this look too much cupcake for you or are you feeling it?

Oprah Admits: “I Have Never Felt Such Fear”

 Oprah Admits: “I Have Never Felt Such Fear”

What is TV titan (and cultural icon) Oprah Winfrey so scared of? The launch of her new cable network, OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network). She admits in O Magazine that she’s REALLY nervous about it.
“I have never felt such fear in all my life. … I was afraid it wouldn’t be what The Oprah Winfrey Show has been, and has meant, for all these years. “


I can see that. ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’ is a phenomenon. If OWN doesn’t become another phenomenon, the haters will be out in full force talking about Oprah’s failure.

I say, no matter what, nothing can lessen all Oprah has accomplished (she is one of the top-earning women in Hollywood) and will still do.

What are your thoughts on OWN (which launches at noon on January 1)?

“People look at her as a style icon,” explains Vince Camuto, the main licensee for Simpson-branded merchandise.


Between this and her engagement to Eric Johnson, Jessica must be on top of the world! You know the wedding will be extraordinary with the type of money Jessica will be able to spend ;) . (But hopefully she’ll re-think the “no prenup” idea.)

Demi Lovato’s Dancer Suing Her?

 Demi Lovato’s Dancer Suing Her?

Demi Lovato has really had a rough go of it lately. She’s supposedly in rehab for substance abuse issues. And now, on top of that, one of her backup dancers wants to sue her after an incident where Demi allegedly punched her.

The backup dancer, Alex Welch, said,
“We were on the plane with the Jonases having this awesome time and I didn’t get a call or text from Demi or a, ‘Hey, you got a problem with me,’ nothing. And she walks up and punches me and literally walked away and got in her seat.
“No one should walk up and do that and brush it over, it’s not right.”


Alex’ lawyer said,
“We have contacted the Lovato camp and we are waiting for a response. If we don’t hear back, we will pursue litigation.”
And Demi’s camp responded,
“We are in the process of engaging with Alex’s lawyer and hope to resolve this as quickly as possible.”
Sources also added that Demi wasn’t able to reach out to Alex because she was “sequestered” in rehab.

That sounds like a pretty good excuse me. What do you make of the whole situation?

Madonna’s New Boyfriend Doesn’t Love Her Music

 Madonna’s New Boyfriend Doesn’t Love Her Music

Anyone who dates Madonna has to be a strong guy. Anyone who dates Madonna and openly admits that he doesn’t really care for her music has got to be strong to the point of possible insanity. Her new boyfriend, dancer Brahim Zaibat, said,
“Her music sure isn’t what I would put on my iPod. But, like everybody else, I knew all her hits.
“And, since we met, I have listened to everything she has done. It turns out she has added a lot of hip hop and break-dancing influences to her latest work.”
I’m sure Madonna loves that he’s talking to the press about how he doesn’t love her songs. In fact, I’m sure she loves that he’s talking to the press, period. He also says their relationship isn’t going too fast at all,
“I wouldn’t say things went too fast. My life did not really change. I am still the same person.
“I am not the jealous kind. As long as I feel I am in control, everything goes smoothly. I cannot deal with external authority. Madonna and I are very alike when it comes to that.”
They were introduced by a mutual friend at an event.
“Norman asked me to dance for the launch of Material Girl (Madonna’s fashion label) and then backstage I was introduced to her.
“She thanked me for my performance. I didn’t feel like I met a monster. She was a woman almost like any other woman.
“I was really happy to meet her but I did not stress about it.”
A MONSTER? Who is calling her a monster? And why is Brahim talking about this? I’m getting the feeling that he won’t last long! Then again, Madonna likes to push people’s buttons, so maybe she wants someone who can push hers.

Kylie Minogue Looking Into Ways To Get Pregnant

 Kylie Minogue Looking Into Ways To Get Pregnant

This must be so hard for Kylie Minogue. She has a serious boyfriend (Andres Velencoso) and she wants babies, but after her breast cancer, she may be unable to have children. She’s looking into different ways to get pregnant though, so anything is possible. Supposedly Kylie is seeing whether or not she could conceive with the help of an egg donor.
“I’ve looked into various options. I don’t know if I’m going to go down any of those roads yet, but I do need to look at what might be potential paths that lead to a family. They can do incredible things now, especially in America.”


Kylie is 42 already. So while there are treatments available, I’m not sure if there as many options at that age. Then again, I don’t know much about the subject, except that however you slice it, getting pregnant via artificial means is HARD on a woman’s body. And Kylie said after her illness she is just now getting to feel back to normal in her own.
“I don’t want to lose any more weight. I just need to get my fitness up. I do feel that then I’ll almost be back in my own body, which would be great.
“I felt for such a long time that I was in a stranger’s body.”
Would you be comfortable with the idea of using an egg donor to have kids if you were unable to conceive naturally?

Portia de Rossi Not Joining Next Season Of ‘Dancing With The Stars’

 Portia de Rossi Not Joining Next Season Of ‘Dancing With The Stars’

Bad news, ‘Dancing with the Stars’ fans: Portia de Rossi won’t be strutting her stuff on the dance floor come next season. The actress has reportedly turned the offer to become half of the first same-sex couple to compete on the reality show. And because of that, producers reportedly are scrapping the whole idea of a same-sex couple. An insider shares with PopEater:
“If Portia had agreed then this would have been a done deal. She was the only star that could have pulled this off without completely offending the program’s conservative viewers.”


Another source shared their opinion:
With all the debate going on about Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell in the country, this would have been the perfect time to do this,” one Hollywood casting director tells me. “Yet, the show has never been about pushing the envelope. It’s a huge hit because it doesn’t make anyone uncomfortable.”
Do you think ‘Dancing with the Stars‘ would suffer a ratings “backlash” if they featured a same-sex couple in the competition?

I am bummed that Portia wasn’t game – I would’ve loved to watch her!

Angelina Jolie Talks Plastic Surgery And Date Nights In Venice

 Angelina Jolie Talks Plastic Surgery And Date Nights In Venice

Angelina Jolie is giving interviews left and right during promotion for “The Tourist“, and is opening up about everything from her kids’ wardrobe choices to plastic surgery. She shares that she hasn’t had any work done and isn’t planning on it, either.
“I haven’t had anything done and I don’t think I will. But if it makes somebody happy then that’s up to them. I’m not in somebody else’s skin to know what makes them feel better about themselves. But I don’t plan to do it myself.


Angelina is pretty content in her life with Brad and the kids:
“I enjoy the work more now because I enjoy life more,” she says. “When you have children the whole world shifts for you. You have these little people that make you laugh and remind you every day of what is important, and you get to be their parent and that’s the most important thing you’ll ever be. Everything else comes from that.”
The actress dishes on the uniqueness of having a date night in Venice (where she filmed The Tourist):
“One night Brad and I went out to dinner and I wanted to get dressed up and wear my heels. By the time we’d finished dinner we had to borrow welly boots because the water had risen so high that you couldn’t walk down the street,” she explained. “But that’s the magic of Venice.”

American Country Awards Winners: Carrie Underwood, Lady Antebellum And More

 American Country Awards Winners: Carrie Underwood, Lady Antebellum And More

The first ever American Country Awards were held yesterday in Las Vegas. Did anyone catch the show? I’m curious to see whether they’ll become even bigger than the CMA’s!

Carrie Underwood and Lady Antebellum were amongst the big winners last night. Carrie CLEANED UP winning, Artist of the Year, as well as Album of the Year, Female Single of the Year, Touring Headline Package of the Year and Female Music Video of the Year. Lady Antebellum scored for Group of the Year honors, as well as Group Video of the Year, Group Single of the Year. Their singer Hillary Scott joked,
“Don’t be surprised if we don’t show up next year, because we want to go out on top.”


The American Country Awards are entirely based off of fan voting and country star Toby Keith says he loves the idea.
“I railed for years, when I had the energy, against the machine. You got 1,500 people voting and they all have agendas,” said Toby Keith, 49, winner of the Video Visionary of the Year Award. “If you’ve had the biggest year, ticket sales, album sales, radio play and you get shut out at award shows because of agenda stuff, then the fans are like, we don’t understand and it takes credibility away from the organization.”
Did you vote? More importantly, did you tune in?

Amber Heard Credits GLAAD For Making It Easier For People To Come Out

 Amber Heard Credits GLAAD For Making It Easier For People To Come Out

Actress Amber Heard says that GLAAD is one of the many reasons it’s so much easier for people to be open about their sexuality, including her own.

“The Stepfather” actress stepped out with her partner Tasya van Ree at the GLAAD 25th anniversary party in Hollywood on Friday night and shared:
I think GLAAD is one of the many reasons that I, as a 24 year old, can come out. I think that organisations like GLAAD make that possible because if it weren’t for opinions being changed, people being influenced, people being engaged to do the right thing, then there would be no prerogative for anyone to come out.


“Like I said, I can’t be a part of the problem. I hate the idea of a label just as much as anyone else but I’m with who I’m with, I love who I love. I personally think if you deny something or if you hide something you’re inadvertently admitting it’s wrong. I don’t feel like I’m wrong.”
Amber recently told AfterEllen.com about her girlfriend:
“She is beautiful – I mean, you’d have to be crazy not to want to go out with her.”
Amber has been pretty open about her sexuality in the past, but this is the first time she actually hit the red carpet with her girlfriend.

I had to add that Amber’s next projects are ‘Drive Angry‘ with Nic Cage and ‘The Rum Diary‘ with Johnny Depp. I’ve been waiting for EONS for The Rum Diary – it’s not due out til next year, but better late than never!

 Angelina Jolie – Jewellery Designer?

Apparently Angelina Jolie is about to add the title of Jewellery Designer to her resume. Because she’s not busy enough being a mother of 6, actress, director and humanitarian (and home wrecker if you listen to Chelsea Handler) she’s decided to add her own jewellery collection to the list!

Us Magazine is reporting that Angelina is teaming up with former Asprey CEO Robert Procop to release her own line of jewellery. Procop told WWD;
“Angelina has very classic style,”
“These are pieces she wears herself.”


Unfortunately those pieces won’t be available to you and me. Nope, Procop will sell the pieces exclusively to his network of clients, with all proceeds going directly to Jolie’s charity, the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict. I think that’s wonderful that the proceeds will go to charity, but do you think that exclusive clients will be more apt to buy pieces designed by a celebrity, or would it be better if it was made available to the public?  Would you wear jewellery designed by Angelina Jolie if you had the chance?

Carey Mulligan Saved Keira Knightley From Retirement

 Carey Mulligan Saved Keira Knightley From Retirement

It’s hard to think of someone retiring at the age of 22, but that’s how old Keira Knightley was when she contemplated retiring from acting. Knightley spoke to British Vogue and said;
“I wasn’t enjoying what I was doing and I felt terribly guilty about that.
“I remember hating the idea that I was in a privileged position and couldn’t see the point of any of it.
“I had worked solidly since I was 16, till 22, and I had not been on holiday in all of that time.”


Fearing that she might have missed out on a ‘normal’ life, the now 25 year old actress thought about finding a new job, until the opportunity to work with Carey Mulligan on ‘Never Let Me Go’ presented itself;
“I didn’t know if I was going to go back to acting at all. I think for a long time I thought I wouldn’t. I think I intended not to work again.”
“Carey’s a very good friend of mine and I felt if I was to start making films again, she was someone who would watch my back.”
Well working from 16 years old to 22 years old without a vacation is a long time, but I think that she’s pretty fortunate with what she gets to do for work. Not sure if I would be complaining about it!

Angelina Jolie Doesn’t Get The Controversy Over Shiloh’s Style

Angelina Jolie Doesn’t Get The Controversy Over Shiloh’s Style

I have to agree with Angelina Jolie on this one. Honestly, one of the most talked about things online is why Shiloh Jolie-Pitt has short hair! It really is something that a lot people think a lot about, and Angelina addressed it when she spoke with YOU Magazine.
“I don’t think it’s for the world to interpret anything. She likes to dress like a boy and wants her hair cut like a boy and she wanted to be called John for a while. Some kids wear capes and want to be Superman and she wants to be like her brothers. It’s who she is. It’s been a surprise to us and it’s really interesting, but she’s so much more than that – she’s funny and sweet and pretty. But she does love a tie.”

Shiloh is so young – I can’t believe that people think she should look any way at all! I think it’s great that Angelina and Brad are willing to let their children express themselves. She also went on to say that encouraging all of her children’s originality is important to her.
“Hopefully I’m giving my children the sense that they are deeply loved and deeply safe. At the same time we are hopefully encouraging their individuality as they get to know who they are, and not getting in the way of that. That’s why they are six very strong individuals.”
That must be one very busy house! What do you think of Angelina letting her kids express their individuality through their clothes and hair?

Michael Sheen Doesn’t Hit People Anymore

Well that’s a relief! Michael Sheen, who will appear in “Tron: Legacy” has said that having a child has calmed him down quite a bit! Sheen has an 11 year old daughter, Lily with ex-girlfriend Kate Beckinsale and told Seven magazine that becoming a father has calmed his temper.
“If I feel there is a situation where someone is being very badly behaved then I don’t hold back.
“However I think being a parent changes that. You can’t go flying off the handle all the time. You have to learn to be patient and tolerant. You can’t just walk away and you can’t just shout.”


“It’s about people accepting your flaws as much as you accepting theirs. I don’t hit anyone anymore, I haven’t hit anyone for a very long time.
“I’m better at picking up on situations earlier on and finding more economical ways of dealing with them before it gets messy.”
Sheen also starred in the last Twilight movie, Eclipse. I bet that made his daughter the most popular kid in school ever! Can you imagine being an 11 year old and your father gets to star in Twilight?!?! I wonder if he ever took her to the set?

“When all the other kids were out sledding, Matt would be helping us out.”


I’m sure Matt is a nice guy, but seeing as Christina just got out of a marriage I don’t think this will last very long. Or am I wrong?

Russell himself has admitted that the couple influence each other’s style choices.
“I would like to endorse that idea. I think I’ve started to wear more colors and she’s started to go darker. She’s started to dress less like a pantomime character and is a bit more sexy – a bit grown up.”
These two really are meant for each other, aren’t they? LOL

“The fervor and madness and girls waiting at 5 a.m. on a set in the middle of nowhere just to see him,” recalls Witherspoon, of their shoot. “He’s sweet and loving and has the nicest family. Kristen (Stewart, Pattinson’s girlfriend) is really sweet, too. He’s a very sensitive soul. He worked really hard. He looks great in the movie, too.”


This actually wasn’t their first meeting, though. Reese and Robert also worked together on the 2004 movie ‘Vanity Fair.’ The change between then and now must’ve been quite an experience for Reese ;) .

Yet Robert fulfilled a contractual requirement for the star. Click on the continue reading link to find out more.


Does Reese have it written into her contract that her co-stars must be “hunky males”?
“I do. How did you find that out? Someone’s gotta do it. It’s likeAmerica’s Test Kitchen, but for making out with hot co-stars. I do it for the girls. I love my job. They’re all really good guys. And I know all their girlfriends,” she smiles.
LOL! Reese is kidding, of course, but it’s not the worst requirement to have.

Spotted – Halle Berry Arriving At ‘Good Morning America’

 Spotted – Halle Berry Arriving At ‘Good Morning America’

Halle Berry was photographed arriving at Good Morning America this morning where she was promoting her newest film “Frankie and Alice’.

I am in love with her coat! It is so gorgeous, I love the neckline on it – it looks so warm but super stylish too!
I really love Halle’s hair short too. Although I don’t think she can look bad no matter how she wears her hair, but I find when it’s short it’s kinda like her signature look, don’t you?

Justin Bieber Cancels TV Appearance After Disastrous Stunt



Not everything is going well with Justin Bieber’s appearances in Europe. The singer had to cancel his appearance on a German TV show after someone attempting to jump over a moving car while wearing shoes with a suspension system was badly injured. Goodness!


Justin explained on twitter:
“Just want to let my people in Germany know I won’t be onWetten Dass tonight as an accident has taken place and we all don’t think it is right to continue,” the teen wrote Saturday.
“Please pray for Samuel Koch & his family as we wait and hope for his health and safety. I’m sorry we couldn’t perform tonight but some things are more important than putting on a show.”
I can completely understand that! The show can’t always go on. German media outlets report that while the injured man suffered numerous back injuries as well as other injuries, his condition is no longer life-threatening.

Olivia Wilde And Jeff Bridges Attend ‘Tron: Legacy’ UK Premiere

 Olivia Wilde And Jeff Bridges Attend ‘Tron: Legacy’ UK Premiere

Olivia Wilde and Jeff Bridges braved what was reportedly a cold British night to attend the UK premiere of ‘Tron: Legacy.’ While talking to reporters on the red carpet, Jeff confessed he had doubts if he should reprise his role (he starred in the 1982 ‘Tron’ movie) as developer Kevin Flynn.
“I had a little bit of hesitation. They assured me it wasn’t just beautiful eye candy and it would be a good story. They came up with one and I am thrilled with it. It’s wonderful. I had heard the rumors for so long. It’s a real ride.”


Olivia plays Quorra in ‘Tron: Legacy.’ I just want to know: where’s Garrett Hedlund, the star of the movie?

Oh well. I think Olivia’s dress is meant to remind us of the colorful Tron costumes: good idea!

Brooke Hogan Returning To The Spotlightimnotobsessed

 Brooke Hogan Returning To The Spotlightimnotobsessed

We haven’t heard much from Brooke Hogan lately, but between her bikini photoshoot at the beach and now posing with her mother, Linda Hogan, it looks like Brooke is ready to re-emerge.

I have to admit, I was a little worried about the ‘Brooke Knows Best’ star when I heard she was cancelling appearances due to problems with anxiety and other medical issues, but it looks like whatever was wrong with her has been taken care of.


So are you ready for Brooke to come back into the limelight? I can’t IMAGINE posing with my mother in a bikini top, but that’s what makes them reality TV personalities, I guess.

Chelsea Handler Calls Angelina Jolie A “Homewrecker”

 Chelsea Handler Calls Angelina Jolie A “Homewrecker”

When I first heard this, it seemed random: why does Chelsea Handler care about Angelina Jolie? Then I remembered Chelsea talking about vacationing with Jennifer Aniston in Mexico this past Thanksgiving and remembered their friendship.


So that may explain why Chelsea Handler is calling Angelina a “homewrecker.”
“She’s a homewrecker, she is. She can rescue as many babies from as many countries as she wants to. I don’t f***ing believe you. She gives interviews, ‘I don’t have a lot of female friends.’ Because you’re a f***ing **** … You’re a f***ing b***h.”

‘Easy A‘ star Emma Stone (I can NOT get used to seeing her as a blonde!) was only one of the celebs to attend the Trevor LIVE evening in Hollywood. It’s a benefit for the Trevor Project.


‘Twilight’ star Anna Kendrick was also in attendance, along with ‘Sex and the City’ star Kristin Davis, ‘Parks and Recreation’ star Amy Poehler, Bonnie Sommerville, ‘The Social Network’ Rashida Jones, Brittany Snow, Josh Duhamel, ‘Glee’ star Jane Lynch, and ‘Private Practice’ star Kate Walsh.

Are Nicole Richie And Joel Madden Trying To Hide Their Wedding?

Are Nicole Richie And Joel Madden Trying To Hide Their Wedding?

Both USA Today and Access Hollywood are speculating that Nicole Richie and Joel Madden (who are rumored to be tying the knot on Christmas after Nicole’s grueling workout regimen) are actually getting married this weekend and trying to fool people with twitter.
On Friday, Joel tweeted:


This flight to Seattle has taken almost 7 hours. We are almost there. Thank you gogoinflight for the wireless.
(Indicating he wasn’t in LA for an impending wedding.)
Meanwhile Nicole tweeted:
Aaahhhhh FINALLY a proper winter. And I had to go all the way to New York to get it.
Yet, as Access Hollywood points out, she’s evaded all photographers.
But Joel apparently returned to LA yesterday, alone with the kids, based on this tweet:
Home alone w/ my kids,Not so bad. Is there an on/off switch 4 these little things or do they just keep going? Nicole pls tweet instructions
Despite all this twitter activity, a delivery truck reportedly was spotted outside Nicole’s father’s house yesterday afternoon, causing all this speculation that Nicole and Joel’s wedding is about to occur there.

Eva Mendes is working hard doing promotion these days! Here she is at a photocall at the Film Festival of Marrakech in Marrakech, Morocco. I think they’re rolling out ‘The Other Guys’ (her movie with Will Farrell and Mark Wahlberg ) in Europe

I like her dress her. I’m especially loving the sash. How about you?

Katy Perry And Pauly D Among Celebs At KIIS FM’s Jingle Ball 2010



KIIS FM’s Jingle Ball looks like it was the place to be, especially for the tweens and teens! Katy Perry attended the event (which do you prefer: the purple dress here or this gold one?), along with ‘Jersey Shore’s’ DJ Pauly D.


In addition to Katy and Pauly D, Selena Gomez, Ryan Seacrest, Joey McIntyre and AJ McLean, and ‘The Bachelorette’ couple Ali Fedotowsky and Roberto Martinez were also on the guest list. Wonder what’s up with Ali and Roberto walking the red carpet separately?

Well, still looks like it was fun!

Jessica Alba Enjoys Some Family Time At The Farmer’s Market

 Jessica Alba Enjoys Some Family Time At The Farmer’s Market

While Jennifer Garner seems to prefer the Brentwood Country Mart as a place to hang out with her daughters, ‘Little Fockers’ star Jessica Alba seems to prefer the Santa Monica Farmers Market.

At least, here she is enjoying what looks like a nice Sunday afternoon with husband Cash Warren and daughter Honor Marie. I bet Honor had a lot of fun with that balloon :) .


I’m sure Jessica needs to enjoy this family time while she can. With ‘Little Fockers’ being released around Christmas, she’s probably going to have to do some traveling within the next couple of weeks to promote it.

Brooke Mueller Enters Sober Living Facility

 
 Brooke Mueller Enters Sober Living Facility

TMZ may have been on to something with their story that Brooke Mueller was taken to a sober house after partying too hard around Thanksgiving. Brooke’s mother, Moira, denied that story, but now she is the one who reportedly told People that Brooke has checked into a sober living facility.


“She is struggling with her sobriety and we are going away on a cruise so we feel better that she will be there while we are gone,” says Fiore, who adds that Mueller is expected to remain at the facility for about two weeks.
While Fiore did not reveal the name of the center, she says, “It is a facility for very wealthy people trying to fight addictions. Brooke is really trying to get her life back.”
Brooke, who’s been filming a new reality TV show with Paris Hilton (which is why they’re always being photographed together), apparently felt she couldn’t handle an upcoming trip to Las Vegas.
“Paris and the other girls on the show are going to Las Vegas and Brooke did not feel she could handle it now,” says her mother. “She was scared. We’re all happy she will be in the facility and hope she will feel better.”
TMZ reports that it was Kathy Hilton, Paris’ mother, who drove Brooke to the sober living facility. I think it’s a good sign that Brooke is able to acknowledge her struggles and take action to help herself.

Olivier Martinez Won’t Face Charges For Threatening Paparazzo

 Olivier Martinez Won’t Face Charges For Threatening Paparazzo

Remember yesterday when I told you about Halle Berry’s boyfriend, Olivier Martinez allegedly threatening a paparazzo during a confrontation (you can see pictures of the confrontation in the thumbnails below)? And the paparazzo pressing charges?


Well, Radar Online reports the actor will not face charges over the incident.
The photographer, who was “surrounding Mr. Martinez’ car as he was backing up in the Mirabelle restaurant parking lot, alleged that Mr. Martinez attempted to hit him,”  LASD Sgt. Ruda tells RadarOnline.com exclusively.
“The paparazzo jumped out of the way of the vehicle and was not injured. No one was hit. No one went to jail. At the time of the incident, Ms. Berry was inside the restaurant. Everything is OK.”

Katie Holmes Shops In Los Angeles

 Katie Holmes Shops In Los Angeles

Katie Holmes was spotted doing some shopping in Barneys NY in Beverly Hills yesterday afternoon. I have to give it to the actress: she can make even leggings, sneakers, and a sweater look stylish! The scarf also provides great camouflage (along with the bag and purse) ;).


With Katie’s fashion sense, I bet she buys the BEST presents if she decides to get someone clothes. All I want to know is: where was her regular partner-in-crime, Suri?

 Celebrity Set Photos: Jim Carrey, Carla Gugino, And Bridget Moynahan

Jim Carrey and Carla Gugino continue to film “Mr. Popper’s Penguins” in New York City. Did you read this book with your kids? I wonder if Jim’s grandson will be old enough to check this out by the time it releases? Nah, he might still be pretty little, but just imagine how cool it will be when he IS old enough and realizes his grandpa is IN these movies he watches.


Bridget Moynahan was also filming in NYC, but for her television series “Blue Bloods“. Have you been watching it? I heard great things, but it’s so far into the season now I’d be lost!
