It has been highly anticipated. Men, boys and even women have dreamed of the day Christina Aguilera would appear nude in a magazine so the pages could be ripped out and given pride of place on the bedroom wall. And finally it has happened. All it took was for the star to get pregnant.

It’s not what every woman does when they discover they have created life. I don’t think any of us look at that positive result and think, “Hey, I’m pregnant. I’ll get naked and have my photo taken”.

But following in the footsteps of previous prenatal models Demi Moore and Britney Spears; Christina has bared all for Marie Clair. Well I guess if you look as fab as she does even whilst pregnant, you might as well flaunt it.

16 people, including rapper Bryan “Birdman” Williams were arrested for possession of marijuana Tuesday.  Police in Kingsport, Tennessee, stopped the RV they were riding in after it made an improper lane change.

Kingsport Police Cpl. Tim Horne said he could smell marijuana as he approached the RV, and found approximately one pound inside a trash can when he searched the vehicle.

Among those arrested were Williams, his 18 year old wife Britany, and his brother Ronald.  The other thirteen arrested included rap industry icons such as Cash Money Records promoter Casey Collins, music promoter Ovide Antoine, and Birdman’s road manager Shahid Muhammad.

As of Tuesday night, all sixteen of them remained in jail.  Police have called in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms to investigate as well because they also found an assault rifle, a handgun, and a magazine for a .45-caliber handgun.  At this time they haven’t filed weapons charges but are still investigating.

The group was on their way to New York to do a shoot for BET.

Maybe they should’ve flown a little higher so the cops couldn’t catch them…..

No, she isn’t a lesbian. In fact Kim Kardashian was freaked out by our very own Britney Spears; who admitted to fancying the sexy beauty. But she has said that the latest pose for Playboy magazine; featuring her on the cover of the Dec 2007 issue, was not for the reasons most of us would do it; money and fame. But then most of us haven’t got her curvy body.

Regardless, Kardashian claims that she only got naked to prove to young girls that the skinny models they usually see in the magazines are not “normal”. And her mother was the one who pushed her to do it! The stunner said “I think she’s living vicariously through me a little bit.”

Whatever the reasons she does look fab. And she still denies accusations that she has undergone plastic surgery. If that’s true, Kim au natural is very aesthetically pleasing.

The latest Chinese movie, the Warlords, enriched Jet Lee’s budget with over $13 mln. Lee now holds a record because he just became the best paid Chinese actor in a native production.

Chinese producers pay Lee that much because he is the ambrosia of their movies, allowing their scripts to be taken to the next level and winning countless amounts of viewers. Without him the producers would not have dared invested so much in their production, but his appearance not only added a famous name on the cast list, but also gave investors the courage to spend a bigger budget or maybe go over it on occasion, pursuing perfection for their masterpiece.

I think if many people were asked to name bands related to drugs, alcohol and general misbehaviour the list would be very long. But doubtful that boy band Take That are likely to arise. However, singer Howard Donald from the group has recently upset anti drugs campaigners by decreeing that cannabis should be legalised.I don’t really see what the fuss is too much – I mean cannabis is almost legal anyway isn’t it? Ok well maybe not. But perhaps he has a point, perhaps if everyone got stoned instead of getting steaming drunk there would be a lot less fighting and such. People just tend to float about and say “man” a lot when stoned don’t they?

It is not the first time Howard has spoken openly about drugs. He previously admitted: “As a band we dabbled with ecstasy and liked the odd spliff, but who doesn’t?”

But he has been labelled as “irresponsible“, and his reasoning to be “rubbish”, because cannabis use can trigger serious mental illness. Well Howard I don’t think you are rubbish; I think you have a valid point. Alcohol abuse can kill but that’s legal. Maybe if they suggest a large tax on the drug like there is on alcohol the government may back you…

The original drummer of the band Lynyrd Skynyrd was arrested on Monday by the St. John’s County, Florida Sheriff’s Department for failing to register as a sex offender. Little girls and boys beware!The former drummer , 59-year old Thomas Delmer Pyle, aka Artimus Pyle, was booked on Monday after he came to the sheriff’s office to speak with detectives about a 1993 conviction. He plead guilty to charges of attempted capital sexual battery by an adult on a victim under 12 years old and principal to lewd and lascivious acts on a child under 16 years old. He was sentenced to 8 years probation and ordered to register as a sex offender but he failed to do so properly by not registering his address because he says that he “travels a lot.”

His bail was set at $10,000 and he posted it come Tuesday evening.

The well-known singer and dj Boy George pays harshly for its sexual eccentricities.
Some time ago he was accused of imprisoning at his residence a young male escort against his will.

Boy George Chained the young man to a wall, and he latter claims he did not agree to this. The truth might be somewhere in the middle, but the British court decided that George will be charged with the accusation and he will stand a trial on the 25 of February in 2008.

As it became quite clear by now, Boy George enjoys having his little sexual fetishes at his home, and this case probably was not the only one. The singer got unlucky this time and my opinion is that the male escort saw its chaining experience as an opportunity of make some money off George’s back.

Entertainment Weekly released its list of 2007s top entertainers. They gave kudos to J.K. Rowling, the author of the popular Harry Potter series. She has sold nearly 400 million copies of her books and is praised for getting “people to tote around her big, old-fashioned printed-on-paper books as if they were the hottest new entertainment devices on the planet”.

The magazine separates entertainers into five categories that read like a high school “Who’s Who”. Rowling was alone in the “prodigies” category.

Other winners include George Clooney, Will Smith, and Angelina Jolie as “valedictorians”; Matt Damon, Carrie Underwood, Kanye West, Johnny Depp, and Katherine Heigl as “Most Popular”; Tina Fey, Vanessa Williams, and Judd Apatow as “Class Clowns”; and Amy Winehouse, Tyler Perry, and Gerard Butler as “Most Buzz-worthy”.

Turns out Harry Potter really IS magical…

Hulk Hogan received a shocking bit of news from a Times reporter Friday night. His wife of 24 years has filed for divorce.

Hogan’s immediate response was to thank the reporter for the news. He called back a few minutes later and said, “I’m kind of shocked. You caught me off guard. My wife has been in California for about three weeks. Holy smokes. Wow, you just knocked the bottom out of me. I just pulled over to the side of the road for five minutes to find out what was going on here.”

Hogan, whose real name is Terry Gene Bollea, and wife Linda Marie Bollea have two children, Brooke, age 19, and Nick, age 17. The family recently starred in their own reality show on VH1 entitled Hogan Knows Best. In July 2005, around the premier of the magazine, Hogan shared in an interview with People magazine, “My wife and I are very intense, very passionate, very loving. Our family if pretty basic and old school, and now we’ve kind of become cool because we’re just as intense as anyone else, but we run a really tight ship.”

Apparently the ship wasn’t tight enough because Hogan’s son Nick has recently been in the news. He is currently facing felony charges for reckless driving. He lost control of his Toyota Supra in August and slammed into a tree. His passenger, friend John Graziano, suffered a brain injury.

Intense as they are, maybe being in the spotlight herself was too much for Linda. Or maybe with Hogan, we can’t believe everything we see on television.

When there’s all these award shows and whatever events, artists are privy to get a lot of free stuff. In the Nokia Gift Suite at the 2007 American Music Awards, Chris Brown, T-Pain, Ne-Yo and country pop band Rascal Flatt’s Gary Le Vox and Joe Don Rooney took some time to check out and appreciate some of the new phones that they were getting.

Oh to be a glamorous star. I want a new phone. I’ll take the ones that they already used so they can use the new ones already. They don’t really need 875 phones now do they?

During the 35th annual Emmy competition, most winners were shows originated in Great Britain.People seem to appreciate more British humor series and dramas, as Emmy nominations show. BBC ruled the evening, winning with almost every nomination they got.

They succeed in seven from their eight proposals, furthermore every part of them except one were shows created by BBC. BBC officials feel they just got lucky, and revealed to press representants how they were pleasantly surprised by their success at Emmys.
The funny thing is that Jim Broadbent , the actor from drama show called The Street, got home with two Emmys, because unexpectedly he managed to win in the same year best comedy with the funny show Little Britain Abroad.

We all have and probably even need some way to express ourselves, whether it be in the way we dress, the profession we’re in or just a hobby. But if you happen to be Marilyn Manson, please keep your self-expression to yourself.

It turns out that the goth rocker is not only an artist in song but in canvas as well. And what he paints is just as shocking as what he does on stage. An exhibit was displayed on Monday in Moscow where Manson made jaws drop and stomachs churn.

Gallery owner Marat Guelman told The Moscow Times that “His artworks are just an extension of him but they are slower and quieter and more subdued.” Right.

Britney Spears has apparently played the ADD card in court and argued that it was her medication for that which caused the positive reading on one of her drug tests.

It was first revealed by a source connected to Brit that the drug was actually Provigil which she used to treat narcolepsy. But then it was proven that the drug wouldn’t show up on a court-ordered drug test. Then they tried to pit it on her asthma inhaler Albuterol. But then it was revealed that the drug which caused the positive result was an amphetamine and Albuterol is nowhere near that. So now, Brit has Attention Deficit Disorder, just like Paris. And just like Paris, she uses Adderall which incidentally is an amphetamine.

Bite me.

Amy Winehouse was really pissed off yesterday when she went to visit her husband who is in jail. She didn’t get to see him because he was only allowed one visitor and his mother had already rushed in to see him. Gotta love the in-laws drama! Isn’t if funny how things will never change? The mother in law always acts like she likes you when you are not married, then once you walk down the isle the devilish horns grow on the their heads. Their precious son, Blake Fielder-Civil, is in jail because he was caught trying to pay off a witness to not testify against him in court. If found guilty he can face life in jail. Probably Amy is thinking that he is going to be proved guilty after all and before the inevitable takes place she might as well see him behind the bars and get a feel of life in jail because the way she is going about her life she stands a good chance to get behind those bars herself. Only if in America once caught on tape having drugs would punish you for life this girl would be in there before her hubby.

First it was an ambulance at Amy Winehouse’s home and then there’s Regina Spektor. The singer was reportedly rushed to the emergency room on Wednesday.

The ‘Fidelity’ singer collapsed just hours before a show at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. The show had to be cancelled 10 minutes after she was supposed to take the stage. There’s not much word on what was ailing the Russian singer or if any other shows will be affected.

A statement has been released on Thursday though, saying that she was feeling much better. But to ensure full recovery, she postponed the show in Atlanta to December 5th with all tickets to be honored or refunded. The rest of the tour continued as planned since the Norfolk show on the 16th.

Everybody loves Hanna Montana’s Miley Cyrus right? If you’re part of the 99.9% that think so, well, you happen to be wrong. Miley is actually being sued by a fan for failing to make tickets available to upcoming concerts.

Kerry Inman of Pennsville, New Jersey says that she paid almost $30 to Miley’s official website which promised to make seats available to members before tickets went on sale to the general public. The $5 million class action lawsuit alleges that Interactive Media Marketing and Smiley Miley, Inc. were ‘unfair and deceptive’.

Reps for Miley say that an opportunity to purchase pre-sale tickets is one of the benefits of membership to the singer’s website but it’s no guarantee of actually obtaining a ticket especially if there are over 70,000 members.

Zahara is legally Angelina Jolie’s and Brad Pitt’s child! Her adoption was first approved in 2005 and has since been ruled legal by the agency. This ruling squashes the rumors that Zahara is going back to Ethiopia because the woman that gave her up wants her back. I can never see her going back to her country - that would be silly. She lives a comfortable life here. However, if her mother gave her up b/c of poverty, disease and famine and not out of lack of love then I think she deserves to be able to at least know how the child is doing. That family obviously gave her up because they didn’t have a pot to piss in and thought the child would die… how can you fault them for being poor? I’m sure there is plenty more to the stories but if they genuinely wanted to know how she was then maybe Miss Sympathetic, Compassionate Jolie could extend the kindness of touching base and keeping them informed.

Paparazzi have felt Britney Spears’ ire. They seem to be getting familiar with her tire as well. The beleaguered, steering-challenged pop star appeared to run over her third foot in less than a month while pulling into the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills Wednesday night. I am about sick of these dam paparazzi. They have nothing better to do than “FAKE” getting their foot run over. They must not be getting paid enough by their bosses. If anyone thinks this person got his foot run over for real, then they need their head examined. Why can’t they just leave her alone so she can get it together? After these incidents the police should issue a warning to all those who have this fixation for Britney’s pictures that they should approach her car at their own risk and she would not be responsible for their misendeavors. They are all standing around, trying to take her picture, they know she is trying to move her car. GET OUT OF THE WAY.

Before Lindsay Lohan became such a “good girl,” she was a really bad girl. If y’all remember she got shipped to rehab because of her drug and alcohol addictions. Well, she had a really good lawyer and basically got out of major jail time. This morning she went to jail at 10:30AM and was out by 11:54AM. That’s hard times yo! Really tired of these celebrities that get a slap on the wrist for double offenses, DUI’s, narcotics charges, etc.! It’s bullshit. How the hell did Paris end up with 3 weeks in prison for driving on the revoke list but this bitch gets 2 DUI’s and is out in an hour?! Plus she walked into the police station with COKE on her for Pete’s sake!! I swear, Hollywood has gone to shit. I don’t even like watching movies half the time because the majority of these actors/actresses are scumbags in real life. How can you not watch a movie with this tramp in it and not think ” slut, druggy, mental case”? Let’s face it,she’s not that good an actress.
