Celebrity Buzz Ah, Young Hollywood. It’s stories like this that make us long for the days when troubled starlets were at least classy about their problems. You know the old story: some chick at a nightclub wore an $11,000 mink coat handed down to her from her grandmother, and before she knew it, it as gone! Then she saw pictures of Lindsay Lohan wearing the coat in a tabloid, thus realizing that she had to have stolen it because, in fact, she was sitting next to her in the club that very same evening. After contacting Lindsay’s lawyers, the coat was promptly returned to her apartment reeking of booze and cigarettes.
Celebrity Buzz Actress, jewelry designer and now blogger, Trachtenberg’s star is on the rise. She’s mean and possibly psychotic on Gossip Girl, but her aw-shucks blog posts for Cosmopolitan are sickly sweet.
Celebrity Buzz Rumors quickly swirled about Mariah Carey’s engagement to actor Nick Cannon, but apparently they’ve since been married at her home in the Bahamas. Twelve years Carey’s junior, Nick is excited to be gaining both a wife and — perhaps in enough time — a MILF.
Celebrity Buzz Whitney Houston’s 15-year-old daughter tries to stab Whitney during an argument, then attempts to kill herself by slashing her wrists. Wayward children of crackhead parents make for great reality television! I’d much rather watch a show about a rebellious teenager than a washed-up R&B star any day.
Celebrity Buzz The sultry Lebanese singer makes headlines for being banned from performing in Bahrain. Bahrain’s parliament was worried about the effect her exposed flesh might have on the public and passed a motion to stop her show. Oddly, she went ahead and performed anyway, albeit in a long, none-too-revealing gown.
Celebrity Buzz Websites devoted to tracking the weird semi-public figures in a city near you. Taking the character you see on the way to work every morning and elevating him or her to the level of semi-celebrity, tracking local eccentrics via the web is a special sub-genre of internet famous.
Celebrity Buzz Pics surface of Amy Smart topless with electrical tape over her nipples while shooting the movie Crank 2. Amy Smart gets inducted into the hot girls club! I kind of always thought she was special since first seeing her in that scene of Varsity Blues where she talks about her period.
Celebrity Buzz The front door to her apartment plays a weirdly central character in the photographic life of Amy Winehouse. It’s always popping up in paparazzi photos - that doorway has seen more in the last six months than most people see their whole lives.
Celebrity Buzz Lohan is at work on a third album that includes collaborations with Snoop Dog, Pharrell and Timbaland. Whether this is a desperate attempt to find a way to create revenue for the un-insurable actress or just a contractual obligation, the album is bound to be a guilty pleasure. I’m hoping she draws some influence from that mix-tape Devendra Banhart made her.
Celebrity Buzz Gen X is poised for a vicarious mid-life crisis as their favorite pop stars all turn 50 this year. We all know that the Rolling Stones are rockin’ their golden years. But now a new generation can lament the graying of their childhood icons. All three stars still look good, but Michael Jackson looks freakin’ AMAZING. Must be the oxygen tent and youthful lifestyle.
Celebrity Buzz Instead of MySpace, this time revealing photos of the Disney star are appearing in the pages of Vanity Fair. Cyrus is now calling the spread, shot by Annie Leibovitz, “embarassing,” though the magazine says she and her minders signed off on all the images when they were taken and that the shot is simply “artistic.”
Celebrity Buzz Amy Winehouse allegedly continues a career of acting out troubling emotions by headbutting some guy at a bar in London. The scrap happened on Wednesday, but it took Scotland Yard detectives a few days to put together the clues. Previously: When Will Amy Winehouse Die?, Amy Winehouse Smokes The Crack, Bad Teeth.
Celebrity Buzz It’s a three-year stint in the pokey for Snipes for willfully failing to file tax returns. I guess the 861 position didn’t work out. Snipes tried cutting a deal, giving the government $15 million just before his sentencing, but a judge handed down the maximum sentence.
Celebrity Buzz Short clip-on hair extensions simulating bangs have been seen on celebs like Rihanna, Vanessa Hudgens, and Britney Spears (a good example of how not to wear them). Now you no longer have to feel pangs of sadness and envy every time you see a photo of Irina Lazareanu. Now if only there was a way to test-drive a bowl-cut….
Celebrity Buzz Everybody loves Tina Fey. Or do they? Yes, they do, mostly. Despite the delicious Schadenfreude a Tina Fey backlash might produce, one just doesn’t appear to be materializing, even though her new movie, Baby Mama, has been getting tepid early reviews. She’s still got that one funny show
Celebrity Buzz Topless pictures have surfaced of…the comedian famous for his mustard yellow suits and caterpillar mustache? Apparently, this is all part of his “Take Your Shirt Off” campaign. Greased up and rockin’ the Mom Jeans, Steve Harvey and friends have done a fantastic job in encouraging the importance of fitness while inadvertently warning the public against the overuse of self-tanner (pick a skin tone, dude!).
Celebrity Buzz Jessica Simpson celebrates Tony Romo’s birthday by singing, flinging cake and posing for the cameras. We’ve heard good things about red velvet cake, but the blue stuff in these photos looks as though it might be Smurf-inducing.
Celebrity Buzz The French actress who plays Fleur Delacour in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire has become a darling of the fashion world. Already well established as an ‘It-Girl’ in her native France, Poesy is now making waves in the U.S. fashion scene. Chosen along with Anja Rubik and Chloe Sevigny to be the new face of Chloe perfume, Poesy has officially landed in the world of high fashion.
Celebrity Buzz Rachel Bilson and Lily Allen have gone blonde this past week. If Natalie Portman and Zooey Deschanel follow suit, we might have to call this a Hollywood tragedy.
Celebrity Buzz Vladimir Putin dumped his wife and is planning to marry an Olympic gymnast half his age. 24-year-old Kabaeva was known for her “extreme natural flexibility” - she won a gold in the all-around at the 2004 Athens Olympics - but is now retired from gymnastics and has been elected to the Russian parliament…as a representative of Putin’s party.
