Leighton Meester to Mom: You're Fired!


Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester fired her mom as manager, cutting her off financially after an incident involving an old friend and a restraining order.
You know how these things go.
The 24-year-old actress dumped Connie Meester after a nasty confrontation with Leighton's friend Laurel Wiig led to a restraining order against her.

Connie has an extensive criminal past that is well documented, giving birth to Leighton while she was doing time in prison for marijuana smuggling.
The recent incident - in which Connie allegedly threatened to "hunt down and kill" Laurel - has Leighton worried about her mom's involvement.
"Now that she's gotten into more trouble, [Leighton] made the painful decision to cut ties with Connie," said a source close to the actress.
Added the source: "Hopefully, Connie will get whatever help she needs and she and Leighton can eventually sort out their relationship."
Leighton's latest movie, The Roommate, opened on top of the box office, and she's won raves for starring in Country Strong this year as well.

Justin Bieber Haircut: The Official Debut


Thanks to the magic of Twitter and the Internet, we've all seen Justin Bieber's haircut already.
But the singer officially goes public with the shorter 'do on Ellen, sitting across from the host and handing her a gift about which all women dream: a box of his own hair.
"We're doing something special," Justin says on the episode that airs today. "We want you to donate it to whatever charity you want," adding that many others will be receiving their own unique, follicle-laden present.

Billy Ray Cyrus: Working to Mend Family, Sound Less Idiotic


Billy Ray Cyrus: Working to Mend Family, Sound Less Idiotic

Billy Ray Cyrus will not be appearing on The View today. His daughter made sure of that.
But the country singer won't let Miley stop him from making like Michael Lohan anyway, going off to a national publication about the importance of his loved ones.
"It is very important to me to work on mending my family right now," Billy Ray toldPeople in a statement. "My family is the most important thing I have, and we are working together to make sure our future is stronger and healthier."
Destroyed by Fame?Destroyed by Daddy
As for saying he wished Miley never signed for Hannah Montana, and that Lucifer himself was attacking his family? Billy Ray says those comments to GQ were "explosive, and unintentionally so."
"It is all a learning process, and we thank everyone for their support and respect of our privacy as we sort through very important family issues."
Seriously, people, stop disrespecting their privacy by reading the interviews Billy Ray continues to give! Sheesh! Wanna catch up on the entire, sordid mess? Watch The Pulse now:

Glee Cast Covers Ke$ha: Watch Now!


Glee addressed the issues of underage drinking and sexual confusion on last night's episode.
It also answered the classic question: how would a drunken cast of singing group members handle a cover of a Ke$ha song in a school-wide assembly celebrating alcohol awareness?
The answer: very well, at least for a couple minutes. Led by Heather Morris as Brittany, New Directions danced and sung along the "Tik Tok" this week. Check out the performance here, compare it to the original and be wary of the concluding few seconds. They're gross.

David Archuleta Vlog Entry: Excited for New Direction!


Don't worry about David Archuleta, fans.
Yes, the former American Idol finalist was dropped by Jive Records last week, but he's recorded a new video blog entry in which he discusses the state of his career and sounds optimistic about what's ahead.
"It took me a while to realize that have control of my life," Archuleta says. "The decisions that I make, that's what's going to break not necessarily just my career, but my life, too. So I'm just excited where to go, the direction that I'm hoping to go now with music."
We have a feeling loyal followers will stick with Archie wherever that takes him, won't they? Sit back and listen to David expound on his future now:

Domino's Delivery Lady Saves Life of Customer


Every single day, an 82-year-old Memphis woman orders a large pepperoni pizza with two Diet Cokes from her local Domino's. Every single day. For three years.
Until one day, she did not. This was so alarming to delivery lady Susan Guy that she drove over anyway and called the police when no one answered the door.
It turns out the woman fell and couldn't get up. Thanks to Guy's initiative, she was rescued and is now resting comfortably at the hospital. Way to go, Susan!
Guy says she's just a delivery woman, but that day, she was a whole lot more. Who'd have guessed ordering Domino's would actually extend a human life?
Too soon? Possibly. Anyway, everybody's okay. That's what matters.

Justin Bieber is Number-One!


Granted, the headline above could apply to many things.
Justin Bieber is number-one in the hearts of teenage girls... talk show bookers... YouTube play lists... charitable organizations.
In this case, however, we're referring to the Billboard 200 Albums Chart, where "Justin Bieber, Never Say Never: The Remixes" sits atop the list with the most copies sold last week.

Charlie Sheen, Brooke Mueller, Bree Olson & Natalie Kenly: Vacation Bound!

Charlie Sheen needs a break from not working. He's reportedly headed to the tropics, and is won't be vacationing there alone:

Insiders tell Radar Online that the actor is going away with a group that includes Brooke Mueller, Bree Olson and a woman named Natalie Kenly, possibly the mystery woman he was spotted kissing earlier this week.
This shocking/hilarious news breaks just hours after we learned Mueller was moving back in with the man who once threatened to kill her.

"Charlie is back to his old self - and that's not a good thing," a source says. "[He] talked about building a porn family and now he's got these three women all living with him and taking off on vacation with him."

Backing up this story, Olson Tweeted last night: Going to a tropical wonder for a little while to relax with friends :) minimal tweets so hold tight! Be home soon babies!
Just try not to be home soon with babies, Bree. That was evidently a problem for another one of Sheen's porn star pals.

Someone's To World Premiere First Original Songs with Ryan Seacrest!!! Can You Guess Who?

Yup That's Right Glee!!!!



“Glee” fans have reason to rejoice this week – the show’s first ever original songs are set to be unveiled Friday, February 25 with “On Air with Ryan Seacrest” and RyanSeacrest.com at 7:30a PT/10:30a ET.
The show’s music director Adam Anders spoke exclusively with Entertainment Weekly about the lead song “Loser Like Me” and the musical genius behind it.
“It’s a very uptempo, kind-of-summery hit,” explained Anders of the song produced and co-written by hit-maker Max Martin, the man behind such songs as Britney Spears‘ “Hold It Against Me” and Katy Perry‘s “Teenage Dream.”
Leading most of “Loser Like Me” are Lea Michele and Cory Monteith, while the other single “Get It Right” is a slower ballad led solely by Michele. For more details about the songs, hop over to Entertainment Weekly here.
Both songs will air in March 15th episode of “Glee,” as well as in the latest soundtrack compilation, due out March 8th.


Can Anyone Stop Helena Bonham Carter From Oscars Fashion Disaster?

Helena Bonham Carter
Hey, Helena Bonham Carter, help is on the way—if you want it!
The eccentric actress, who's famous for her oddball outfits and one set of mismatched shoes, is one lady that celeb stylist June Ambrose (the woman behind Missy Elliott's famous puffy garbage bag outfit and some of Mariah Carey's most slimming looks) would like to help.
And since HBC herself promised her upcoming Oscar outfit will be "a catastrophe," maybe the star should take her up on the offer.
Ambrose told us under the Lincoln Center tents what she'd do...
MORE: Why are Helena and Tim Burton sleeping in separate beds?
"She wants to be edgy, she wants to be outrageous, that's fine," Ambrose said. "I'd put her in McQueen. I'd put her in something that would be very avant garde. And I would just stop her when she wants to take it somewhere else."
The stylist said she almost "can't wait" for the Oscars to see what the nominee turns up in at the ceremony. "She still gets press and she gets off on it," Ambrose said, adding that the mismatched shoes the actress wore to the Golden Globes had her going crazy.
"I'm done, just done with that," she laughed.
Ambrose said she knows what it's like to be quirky, but that there's a line between originality and ugly.
"That's where I can help her," she explained. "I'm the girl that creates icons. I'm the girl that put Missy in the blow-up suit and put P. Diddy in the shiny suit, so I know what it's like to create an iconic moment out of costume."
As for the best dressed in Hollywood, the stylist says her favorites are Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
"They still really rock me to the core. She's just like nice and even when he's scruffy he's still chic," she said.  "After all those children she looks pretty amazing."
And her favorite star of Fashion Week? Julia Stiles.
"I sat next to her a few times. She looked lovely," the stylist told us.

Movie Review: I Am Number Four Gets Stuck in Smallville

I Am Number Four
Review in a Hurry: It's got a clever premise—hunky teen aliens who can only be killed in a sequential order—but Four spends too much time in Smallville mode, with Four (Alex Pettyfer) living in Ohio and crushing on some cheerleader from Glee (Dianna Agron).
Once the action (and CGI) goes into overdrive, the wait is (mostly) worth it.
RELATED: So much Glee coverage!
The Bigger Picture: Born on the planet Krypton Lorien, "John Smith" (Pettyfer) is a typical adolescent trying to live off the grid. His mentor (Timothy Olyphant) keeps a close eye on him, but John is tired of moving from town to town every time "the visions" happen.
John is one of nine survivors who are being hunted down in numerical order. (We never find out why this is, though—wait for the sequel?) As the film begins, Three has been offed. And uh oh, John is number Four!
Fortunately, each of the nine have special powers that have been passed down from their parents. Hot on his (and presumably numbers Five thru Nine) trail are the black-cloaked Mogadorians, another alien race. We can tell they're Team Evil because they sport tribal tattoos and breathe with gills.
So far, so good—right? But a lot of the running time is not about Four's battle with the Mogads. He's also a hot teen so he needs to do the whole go to school, fall in love, become BFFs with a UFO conspiracy outcast and take out the main bully thing.
The young cast of twentysomethings posing as teens are up to the task of playing The CW way of balancing high school life with the extraordinary. It just feels so ho-hum. Really? Yet another bully with rage issues? One of the writers is Marti Noxon a Buffy alum, which might be why the dialogue works but also why it feels like a TV episode.
I Am Number Four is part of The Lorien Legacies book series by Pittacus Lore (actually a pseudonym for Million Little Pieces author James Frey and Jobie Hughes). Perhaps because of the young readers' mindset, characters make great proclamations like, "This is only the beginning" or "I've never met a guy like you!"

PHOTOS: The 15 movies you gotta see in 2011
We wish director D.J. Caruso could have found a tone that didn't feel so familiar. Four, after all, is an alien. Yes, new gal Sarah (Agron) is cute as a button and the duo have good chemistry but frankly, this has been done over and over in other (better) films and TV shows.
On the plus side, Caruso (Eagle Eye) has a knack for these types of stories: young men who want to settle down with a nice gal but must escape and unravel the mysteries of those who would take him down. He has a gift for getting performances from his actors that keeps us invested even when the script is by the numbers.
Things pick up considerably when Four meets the equally attractive Six (Teresa Palmer). The battle against those gilled villains finally begins! Complete with huge beasties! There's some great fight scenes, particularly the way Four and Six use their unique abilities. It's a lot like how a videogame gets replay value out of different character classes (Fire, Ice, etc). In short, Six's force field beats all.
So maybe there is reason to be excited for Film Number Two.
The 180—a Second Opinion: Refreshingly, the film uses music that actual teens might listen to, including The Black Keys and The XX. Angsty teen aliens need to jam, too.


How Crazy Will Prince William's Bachelor Party Get?

Prince William, Prince Harry Bring on the three Bs: Brits, booze and bachelors! It's all you need to have a royal send-off bash for the wedding of the year! 
Now that the parties have both been announced and the big day is just around the corner, it's time for the real fun. And we're not talking about a game of polo.
We're talking late night drunken partying, for which both Prince William and Prince Harry have been known to heavily indulge.
The question is, just how crazy is this bachelor party going to get?
TWITTER: Follow Ted
Since best man Harry may be planning brother Wills' last single soirée, we suspect these two famed partiers will make sure there is plenty of fun to go around (remember, William was famous for wearing just a loin-cloth to his African-themed 21st birthday party, much to his family's shock, and he's been pretty tanked at several bashes since then).
How crazy can it get? Pretty damn crazy, if the party is left to Harry.
Which is exactly why Prince William has banned his brother from planning the bachelor bash.
Seems Harry's recent antics (he was seen last weekend stumbling out of a burlesque show at 3:30 a.m.) are making Wills question baby bro's send-off planning capabilities.
Instead, William is said to have insisted upon a more private and mature weekend away.
But where could this idea have come from?
Certainly not from William himself, since the balding Brit used to school Harry in getting crazy, but, since he's been attempting to do the more concerned big-bro thing.
Also, perhaps the lovely Kate had a few mellow suggestions for her future hubby?
She did, after all, name her sister, Pippa, as maid of honor and official bachelorette planner. And knowing this humble gal, there will hardly be any kind of hard partying before she officially takes her tiara.
So if neither William nor Kate get to let loose before the big day, what will the couple do after the hoopla?
Royal wedding fanatics, pack your bags, because William and Kate will be just across the border—taking a royal tour of Canada!
No time will be wasted before thrusting Kate into her new life, as the trip will take place just weeks after the wedding.
As for the rest of the details, all of us are still dying over knowing who the mysterious dress designer is.
Give us a hint Kate! Or you might see some Americans royally ticked off.


Movie Review: Big Mommas Is So Bad It's...Really Bad!!

Big Mommas, Like Father, Like Son Review in a Hurry: Thanks a bunch, Tyler Perry. Your antics in old-lady dress-up have inspired Martin Lawrence to literally drag his worst franchise out of the closet and back onto the big screen, cheaper and more lazily than ever.
RELATED: Martin Lawrence gets married
The Bigger Picture: Aside from the fact that it's chasing Madea-level money, nothing much about Big Mommas makes sense, from the opening sequence in which FBI agent Malcolm Tucker (Lawrence) terrorizes his mailman (Ken Jeong, annoyingly overplaying as usual) for no particular reason, to the terribly contrived plot that results in both Tucker and his estranged stepson Trent (Brandon T. Jackson) to go undercover.
Suffice it to say that aspiring rapper Trent thinks it'd somehow be a great idea to harass his father during a sting operation, and that the MacGuffin being sought by an evil villain (named Chirkoff, tee-hee) has been arbitrarily hidden in a girls' school.
Needless to say, Paul Giamatti does not return for this adventure. Even Nia Long couldn't be bothered to show up. And Faizon Love, who generates the movie's only laughs as a jumbo-sized janitor with a fat fetish, wisely goes unbilled in the credits.
Perhaps as a token gesture to the Tyler Perry model, this Atlanta-set sequel features more musical numbers (quite obviously overdubbed), and an emphasis on healing family relationships rather than going overboard on the gross-out gags.
Jackson makes for an agreeable enough presence, while Lawrence starts to feel like scenery in his own movie, as if even he can't work up the energy to pretend the film's worth a damn. On the plus side, his half-assed emoting makes him less obnoxious than usual.
And not that anyone really cares about consistency and continuity throughout what I guess we can now call a trilogy...but considering that "Big Momma" in part one is an actual person that Tucker is specifically impersonating, isn't it just a tad reckless to keep using her name and likeness in dangerous situations? Or is Tucker just supposed to be the worst federal agent ever?
Stay till the end credits if you've ever wanted to see Lawrence-as-Big-Momma rapping. But know that if you do have such a desire, you need to dream bigger.


9021-Uh-Oh!


Who is In Trouble You Ask?? 
AnnaLynne McCord has a new mystery man in her life—and he's giving her one helluva headache.
The 90210 actress has been targeted by Mark Robert Pawlowski, whom she rear-ended in a 2009 fender-bender. Although McCord came through the crash relatively unscathed, the dude claims in court docs that he's had to undergo lots of surgery post-accident. And he wants her to foot the bills plus a little something-something extra.
Pawlowski says in his lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court that he's needed back, neck and shoulder surgery performed due to the accident. He is seeking unspecified damages to pay for his medical bills and loss wages along more damages for his pain and suffering.
McCord hit his car while driving around in her new (at the time) silver Mini Cooper. The Pawlowski car was towed from the scene at South La Cienega Boulevard.
There has been no immediate comment from the actress on the lawsuit.

Pregnant Jessica Alba Is Craving...

Jessica Alba

Jessica Alba is eating for two!
As you may have heard, the 29-year-old actress and her hubby, Cash Warren, are expecting their second child and, apparently, the pregnancy cravings have already kicked in!
So what food did we just catch Miss Alba chowing down on?
TWITTER: Follow @marcmalkin and @brettmalec
Fried chicken! And lots of it. But that's not all.
"She was eating everything they put in front of her," a source tells us of the mama-to-be, who we spotted at yesterday's Lexus CT200h Challenge in L.A. "Chicken, Chinese chicken salad, cupcakes, you name it!"
Alba, who hid any sign of a burgeoning bump with a loose-fitting black and white top and black coat, was there in the stands supporting her husband who was a racer in the event.
"It looked like she was having a good time!" our source says of Alba, who, in addition to eating lots of chicken, was seen doing a lot of laughing and smiling. "Just eating and talking with friends."
When leaving the event, the couple stayed mum about their baby-on-board. When asked if they were excited, Warren simply said, "Of course!"


Who Stole Paris Hilton's $3,200 Absinthe-Spiked Birthday Cake?

Paris Hilton It's one thing to crash someone's party.
It's a whole 'nother thing to make off with their pricey, custom birthday cake!
But that's what happened to Paris Hilton during the first of her multiple 30th birthday bashes in L.A. on Tuesday night...
TWITTER: Follow PartyGirl
Paz, an uninvited guest who managed to sneak in with his friend to the Moulin Rouge-themed bash, wrote a detailed post on Facebook, (complete with photos) of how he stole one of her two custom cakes after a waiter told him they'd probably toss it.
"I hated the idea of something so awesome and expensive going to waste," the rapper and musician tells me exclusively.
Well, today, Lucid, the absinthe that was used in the liquor-infused confection (which was made by Hansen's bakery on their behalf) released a self-promotional statement.
"It is very unfortunate that someone stole the cake from Paris' birthday party," the company said. "We had the cake designed especially for her with Lucid in the batter and a beautiful representation of Lucid's artwork on it, which she requested to meet the Moulin Rouge theme of her party. We only wish that guests could have tried her delicious cake."
Well, some other people will still get a piece, according to Paz. "I'm bringing it a homeless shelter on Skid Row. There are too many people in this city who don't get to eat. They should get to enjoy something awesome," he tells me.
(Because liquor-infused three day old cake is what every homeless person wants, right?)
Paris' rep had no comment on Cakegate, but a source close to the birthday girl says, "She thinks it's so pathetic that someone feels the need to get attention like that."
Not that she's probably missing that cake too much. She scored yet another cake during her NYC fete at Lavo last night, and is celebrating her 30th yet again back in L.A. on Saturday at Beacher's Madhouse.


Tragic! Dead Baby Found in Bag After Being Born at Oprah Winfrey's South African School

Oprah Winfrey

The real drama in Oprah Winfrey's life is taking place far away from her new cable network.
The body of a newborn baby was discovered in a bag belonging to a student at the already scandal-plagued Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls in Johannesburg, according to South African authorities.
MORE: Oprah Winfrey's life-changing family secret
Hospital staffers discovered the lifeless infant when the 17-year-old girl identified as the baby's mother was brought in to be treated for excessive bleeding, the child in a bag she brought with her. Police believe that the girl, who remains hospitalized, gave birth at the school.
Charges have not been filed at this time and police are investigating, after which the case will be turned over to the Director for Public Prosecutions, ABC News reports. They have not said whether foul play is suspected in the child's death.
A Chicago-based spokesman for Winfrey's school said they will not be commenting on the case, as it involves a minor.
As did the case of the school's former dorm matron, who was accused in 2007 of molesting several students. Virginia Tiny Makopo was eventually acquitted of the charges, leaving Winfrey "profoundly disappointed."
The talk-show queen and cable-network founder ultimately fired the school's headmistress, as well, stating that she would do everything in her power to "ensure [the students'] safety and well-being."
In March 2009, four pupils were expelled and another three suspended for alleged "inappropriate behaviors," which were said to include "sexual misconduct," toward other students.

Who Were the Five Biggest Celebrity Fixtures at Fashion Week? Part 2


Vanessa HudgensJohn Parra/WireImage.com
1. Vanessa Hudgens:  The newly single actress was spotted at Diesel, Marc Jacobs and the Jeremy Scott show where she told us about her style and laughed off questions about Zac Efron. The cutie popped up all over town, running from the tents to offsite shows, and in betweem even found time to get some new ink. She made her way down to the East Village, where she got a butterfly tattoo on her neck in the middle of her hectic schedule.
Kanye WestAstrid Stawiarz/Getty Images
2. Kanye WestCausing chaos wherever he went, the rapper dissed the Grammys in favor of Fashion Week. First it was the Tory Burch presentation at the Lincoln Center tents, where Kanye caused such a stir, fans had to be told to not crowd him with their cameras. Then he hit the Jeremy Scott show, where he rolled 12 deep with bodyguards. Uncalled for, really. Then he managed to cause a near stampede outside the Modrian with his presence at the his V magazine cover party in SoHo, where his face was printed on the invites and money was spit into the air in a "Make It Rain machine." He also attended Alexander Wang's Belvedere Vodka party and caught a performance by Lauryn Hill. You'd think he was a castmember of Real Housewives of New York City. Speaking of...
Jill ZarinAstrid Stawiarz/Getty Images
3. The Real Housewives of New York/New Jersey: Yes, we're lumping them all in one group. From Alex and her oddly dressed hubby, Simon McCord, at Cyntha Steffe telling us this season of the show is insane to Jill Zarin sitting front row at Betsey Johnson, they infested the tent like reality bedbugs.
Zarin chatted her way through Johnson's show, telling E! News she loves new castmember Cindy Barshop and plugging her new line of shapewear called Skweez. Zarin even marched in the Zang Toi show, saying she was a nervous wreck. Caroline Manzo hit the Tracy Reese production, where she also plugged the upcoming season of the show, telling us there are plenty of fights that go down. And the godfather of it all, Bravo honcho and Watch What Happens host Andy Cohen sat front row at Diane Von Fürsetnberg laughing at it all and telling us the buzzword for this year is "Keep your hands off, Andy!"

4. Fergie: The singer looked smokin' hot all week, first sitting at DVF in a green coat and colorful scarf, where she eyed a red sequined number and smiled as it went town the runway. She caused such a stir with her entrance extra security was called in to stand near her while she sat front row. She was then hustled backstage in the blink of an eye. But not before she told us she loved the "blues and greens" and Diane herself. TheBlack Eyed Peas frontwoman also hit the Marc Jacobs show in a short red number by the designer, and brought gorgeous hubby Josh Duhamel along as the best accessory.


Gabrielle UnionCourtesy of Michael Buckner/Getty Images for Mercedes-Benz
5. Gabrielle Union: The pretty actress had amazing attendance this Fashion Week, showing her face all over the tents. She hit the Christian Siriano show looking beautiful in an aqua printed dress, then she was spotted at Carolina Herrera in a bright yellow number, then over to Nicole Miller in a one shouldered jumpsuit (and great, flowing hair). She also popped a squat next to Julia Stiles at the Tracy Reese show, where the two gossiped ad chatted throughout. We almost put Stiles on here, but Union had her beat by a few shows. We'll call her a runner-up.


Who Were the Five Biggest Celebrity Fixtures at Fashion Week?

Keri Hilson, Kanye West, Vanessa Hudgens

Where the heck were the A-listers?
That's was the buzz from the organizers of New York's Fashion Week, which wrapped Thursday night. Although celebs showed, and plenty of 'em, they were mostly reality TV stars. And although we did see some big names in music pop up all week, the New York and New Jersey Housewives seemed to rule the tents alongside them.
"It was all Housewives all week, this year didn't really have any huge big name draws," one staffer groused to E! News. "It's all reality shows now. Matthew McConaughey was the only A-Lister who came to see his girlfriend walk the in Red Dress show. And you had your actresses, but where's the Charlize Therons? Or the Julianne Moores? Now it's Alex [McCord] from Housewives."
So, including McCord, who were the five biggest fixtures in the Fall 2011 Fashion Week? We give them to you here...


Justin Bieber Struts His Stuff on the Basketball Court, Gets Named MVP!! YAY!!



We know he's got talent when it comes to singing and dancing, but does Justin Bieber also have enough skiils to be named the Most Valuable Player on the basketball court?
Never say never.
RELATED: Hello, controversy: Justin Bieber talks sex, abortion, and "evil" Americans
Bieber fever came on top, with the 16-year-old Grammy nominee voted as the game's Most Valuable Player at the 2011 BBVA NBA Celebrity All-Star Game yesterday.
And, it wasn't technically just a popularity advantage.
The Biebs played with the West, scoring eight points to go along with four assists. And even though his team lost, he, "drew the loudest cheers with his ballhandling, a few slick passes and several glances toward the crowd," a statement said.
He was even getting props on twitter! Sal Masekela tweeted—"Damn. @ almost had his ankle broke by the Bieber."
Between pulling fast breaks and some courtside recognition, JB also kept his followers on Twitter up-to-date, tweeting—"13 hours on a plane...we land...go straight to the court...yeah we go hard!! 2nd half is about to get serious. "
So let's get this straight. Bieber is dominating the music scene, the box office, girls' hearts everywhere and he's a baller!
Now we know.
Oh, and Bieber fans do have something else to look forward to. Our shaggy-haired friend tweets— "That was fun. Crazy being coached by @ - gonna auction off my jersey for charity at www.bieberfever.com"
Eeek!
So how did Biebs end his night as MVP?
He took everyone out to see Never Say Never. Cute.


OMG!! Kim Kardashian Caught Tonguing With Kris Humphries!


How did Kim Kardashian and her basktballer beau Kris Humphries party it up after the NBA Celebrity All-Stars game in L.A.?
They stopped by Khloé Kardashian Odom and Lamar Odom's after party at Club Nokia where they got plenty of tongues wagging.
Especially their own...

Kim and Kris showed up to the bash around 11:00 p.m. with brother Rob and party hosts Khloé and Lamar. All members of the Kardashian clan took pics on the red carpet, but Humphries watched his reality TV gal from the side without posing for any photos.
Inside the event, presented by Chocolate Sundaes, the gang hung out in a private VIP booth where they chatted over drinks while cameras for Khloé and Lamar's upcoming reality showed rolled.
While Kim and her New Jersey Nets star kept their PDA to a minimum, the two got a little raunchy at one point in the night when Kim was caught sticking her tongue out at Humphries, who proceeded to bend down and lick her tongue with his.
Talk about PDA! And in front of her fam, too. Maybe they were just making up for missing Valentine's Day together.
The gang spent the rest of the evening in good spirits, chatting with friends and other celebs like Shaquille O'Neal and The Blindside star Quinton Aaron, before heading out a little after midnight.
Beforehand, on the carpet, we had to ask Khloé about those ever present pregnancy rumors. So are she and her Lakers hubby currently trying for a little bundle of joy of their own?
"Definitely!" she said.

Avril Lavigne Plays Hard To Get In New Music Video for “What The Hell”


After debuting her new song on “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest,” Avril Lavigne has now unveiled the video for “What The Hell.”
In the video, Lavigne has a persistent love interest hot on her tail, always managing to stay one step ahead of him from the streets of L.A. to a basketball court, to a vintage clothing shop. The video – which was shot in 3D – culminates with Lavigne performing in a small club and yes, eventually ending up back in the bad with the heart throb.
“What The Hell” is the first single off of Lavigne’s forthcoming album Goodbye Lullaby.

Why Can't the Oscars Be on Saturday, Instead?

James Franco, Anne Hathaway, Oscar
Why are the Oscars always on Sundays? 
Awards shows really screw up my Mondays.
—JennyInst, via the inbox


I'm sure you really tie one on, staying up until 11:30, and probably having two whole glasses of champagne instead of the usual single MGD. You must look tore up the next day, gurl. I feel you.
But don't look for any major awards show—the Globes, the Oscars, the Grammys—to move for you, because...

...you're watching!
I called a contact behind one of the major awards shows. And he said the only reason why these ceremonies sparkle on Sundays is because people are home! And looking at the TV! To the tune of—in the case of last year's Oscars, for example—41.3 million viewers.
Those kinds of numbers would be much tougher to achieve on a Saturday, when people like you are off drinking two MGDs at the local Applebee's, right?


Hilary Duff: Why Is She Jealous of Carrie Underwood?

Carrie Underwood, Hilary Duff Does Carrie Underwood have something to worry about?

Turns out the Duffster wishes her hockey hubby Mike Comrie would also get traded to a team closer to home.
"I'm a little envious of her right now because he just got traded to Nashville," Duff joked to reporters about Underwood's hubby Mike Fisher. "Like, 'Really?' I'm like, 'Come on! I'll take San Jose, I'll take any place closer than Pittsburgh!"
Duff added with a laugh, "I do love Pittsburgh [though] and the team is really good. "
As you may have heard, Underwood's beau recently got traded from the Ottawa Senators to the Nashville Predators. Duff''s man currently plays for the Pittsburgh Penguins while she lives in L.A.
Joking aside, Duff says she and Underwood both understand the hardships of a long-distance marriage, adding, "We get it because we kind of go through the same thing. When we see each other we [talk]. For a while, our guys played on the same team so it was cool to see her there."

Justin Bieber Cuts His Hair!!

Justin Bieber teased us on Twitter this morning saying, "thinking about getting a haircut....hmmmmmm." But he wouldn't actually do it, would he?!
Again we say, never say never.
Check out his new look...
Jay DeMascus, Justin Bieber 

Twitter confirms, "yeah so it's true...i got a lil haircut...i like it...and we are giving all the hair cut to CHARITY to auction. Details coming soon."
NOOOOOOOOO!
Oh wait, he's giving the proceeds to charity? Can't argue with that.
Biebs was filming a music video today with the country act Rascal Flatts for a song they collaborated on called, "That Should Be Me," and the band's Jay DeMarcus tweeted a photo of him and Bieber with his new do'.
In some less hairy Bieber fever news, it looks like a new version of Never Say Never will be out in theaters next weekend.
"Next weekend for ONE WEEKEND ONLY we are adding 40 minutes of NEW FOOTAGE to  in Theatres!!" the 16-year-old tweeted.
Justin Bieber: Never Say Never Director's Fan Cut was actually on the building blocks during editing the original movie.
"I realized I had an embarrassment of riches when I was in the cutting room," Director Jon M. Chu said in a release.
So what can we expect from the revamped flick?
Some of the new footage includes more of Bieber's friends and hometown life, as well as new songs and special footage shot of the film's premiere at theaters across the country.
"This cut allows me to retain some of the best scenes from the original movie, while incorporating previously unseen footage and new material I shot during our extensive promotional tour on behalf of the movie. Justin's dedication to his fan base is unwavering and I was inspired as a filmmaker to attempt to provide them a unique experience that showed even more of his world."
Also: More of that fabulous hair.
