Over the weekend, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have publicly confirmed their relationship when they were seen locking lips for the first time. The rapper artist visited Kim Kardashian who was on set for a photoshoot for Vogue Italia.

The two who seem to be comfortable displaying their romance in public were spotted loved up at the Lakers game this week. According to a report from US Weekly, their budding romance has inspired a rap from West. The 36-year old was believed to be working on a new track which seems to suggest potential wedding bells.

Rihanna Posts Topless Pictures on Facebook, Again!

It seems like Rihanna is living up to her “Good Girl Gone Bad” status as she posted series of topless pictures on her Facebook account. The photos were taken behind-the-scenes of her new music video “Where Have You Been?”

It’s known to the public how Rihanna is not particularly shy to flaunt her body in public. But this time, the Barbadian singer is leaving only little to the imagination. The singer was snapped as a makeup artist painted parts of her body to look like crocodile scales.

 

The 24-year-old singer, who also used Twitter to share some of her raunchy pictures didn’t seem coy about being exposed. This isn’t the first time the singer shared topless pictures on Facebook. Last month, she posted another album of her Hawaiian vacation and there was one photo of her in a swimming pool, topless with an arm covering her chest.

Rihanna seem to have bounced back after she was hospitalized due to exhaustion and dehydration right after she attended the Met Gala inNew York City. Sources say that the singer has been partying hard and that friends close to Riri advised her to take up therapy. But from the looks of these photos, Rihanna is not about to slow down.

Kim Kardashian and Lindsay Lohan

Kim Kardashian and Lindsay Lohan


The White House might very well be one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, and while it is open to practically everyone, certain events and areas are only for the super special. And when it comes to events, the White House Correspondents Dinner is one of the oldest traditions.

Conventionally, the dinner is supposed to be a meeting place for the President and political journalists. But who said that that has to remain the same for ages? Definitely not the current organizers of the dinner, I suppose, for we have two “unlikely” guests to this year’s dinner: Kim Kardashian and Lindsay Lohan. Read the rest of this entry »

At stage 2, O’Neal says his cancer is well under control although , “ I was shocked and stunned by the news, I feel fortunate that it was detected early and according to my extraordinary team of doctors the prognosis is positive for a full recovery,  “ — “  I wasn’t prepared for it. I wasn’t ready for it. But you never are.”

He also has a son with ex wife Leigh Taylor Young and 2 children from his first  wife Joanna Cook Moore – one of whom was married to John McEnroe for a few years, whom we all know as the lil rebel vixen Tatum O’Neal.

Brangelina to Get Married in France

Brangelina French Estate

Brangelina French Estate

So the “good old US of A” is not good enough for the most famous celebrity couple of this generation? Is that it?

Probably not.

It is no secret that the famed Hollywood couple have properties around the world, and it just so happens that they have an estate in the south of France. Mind you, the use of the word estate is not an exaggeration in this case as the couple’s property is indeed worthy of that name. One can even call in a mansion housed in sprawling grounds. But do you expect anything less from Brangelina? Read the rest of this entry »

Casper Smart Gets a Dodge Ram For His 25th

Casper Smart and Jennifer Lopez
Who the heck is Casper Smart? That’s the reaction I got from a couple of people – but only a handful. After all, his relationship with star Jennifer Lopez has not escaped the prying eyes of the celebrity-fascinated. Far from that actually. When news broke out that Jennifer Lopez was dating one of her back up dancers, tongues started wagging, and fingers started flying across keyboards.

Come to think of it, I do not understand why anyone was surprised when Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart started hanging out “way too much”. These things should be considered a normal occurrence by now, shouldn’t they? Read the rest of this entry »

So is she or isn’t she? That remains to be the question for Drew Barrymore’s rather showy little baby bump. Ouuf, did I say baby bump? Naah, it might just be one too many grilled cheese sandwiches for this hippy flippy quirky chic.

Stepping out on the town in a rather tell-tale T-shirt in Los Angeles, it’s pretty evident  that tiny tummy protrusion is could certainly be a biological statement of impending motherhood for  Drew.

The 37 year old actress was doing a grocery run at the time in a pair of skinny low rise jeans and a rather flimsy loose fitting navy blue Tee which seemed to hint of a round delicate paunch.

The tattle tongues have not stopped wagging about Drew’s pregnancy ever since pictures of her came out in public carrying a sonogram last January.

Sources have been pretty keen on their confirmation that her fiance’ Will Koperman popped the question together with a colourless cut 4 carat diamond and  plan to tie the knot this summer.

After a string of relationships,  ill-fated engagementsand  two short lived marriages, we’re hoping the Drew has finally found her one true thing with the son of former Chanel CEO Arie Kopelman

Some May-December wedding bells could be ringing anytime soon for Jim Carrey and his Russian student girlfriend Anastacia Vitkina.

The 50 yr old actor seems to have let the cat out of the bag on his 50th birthday celebration that he is ready to settle down and get married.

Although the couple have only been dating for five months, Jim has decided it’s time to get married and that he can’t wait to pop the question to 30 yr old Anastacia. The couple met in New York last October and his college co-ed love is said to have attended the Parsons School of Design and is now enrolled at New York University.

After his split from Jenny McCarthy in April 2010, Carrey has been hitting the dating scene  on and off with some 20 somethings, the last of whom was 24 yr old America’s Next Top Model contestant Anchal  Joseph.

It seems pretty odd that  Carrey decides to get married again, when in the five years he and Jenny were in a solid relationship, they each strongly confessed how they did not feel the need for a piece of paper to bond them as husband and wife.

We don’t know what makes Anastacia special enough for Carrey to finally have that need to make his love official on paper this time around, if ever he does pop the question. But, he does admit that he was quite smitten by her smarts and her sense of humor.

Dennis Rodman is Flat Broke and Sick

Dennis Rodman seems to be juggling too many hard balls of late, leaving his trail blazing with nothing but smoke and a chunk of back child/alimony support . Another sad story of a famous athlete whose career sky rocketed and plummeted due to bad behaviour and his hard style partying.

Even after his basketball career suffered, the notorious Rodman still had endorsements and appearances coming his way. After all, he was a former Defensive Player of the Year and a seven-time rebounding champion and that certainly still had long term pay-offs.
However, Rodman is now facing possible jail time of 20 days due to charges filed by his ex wife Michelle Rodman for his failure to pay child support amounting to $ 808,935 for their 2 children and $ 51, 441 in alimony.

The 51 yr old basketball Hall of Famer has his attorneys out with a public statement that he is broke and extremely sick. There has been no specific comment as to what Rodman is suffering from , but many speculate his documented drinking and partying may have taken a huge toll.

Undoubtedly, it is pretty hard to keep up with finances when one’s income hardly supports non stop party hopping and a third ex wife running her tab of expenses at $ 17, 000 a month plus attorney’s fees!

Something warm and fuzzy seems to be brewing between Desperate Housewife Eva Longoria and muy caliente papi Prison Break star Amaury Nolasco. Although these two have long been good friends, the pair have been stepping out a lot lately for some friendly tete-a-tete .

Just fresh from her split with Penelope Cruz’ hermano, Eduardo Cruz, nothing seems to have stomped Longoria from getting back on the saddle in the dating scene.

The hunky latino Amaury is known to be hooked up with Jennifer Morrison, but oddly enough the 41 yr old Nolasco seems to be flying solo each time he’s been spotted goofing about on the town in the public eye with Longoria.

We don’t know if this is all some good ole platonic PDA , but after some keen roving eyes have seen the friendly pair out enjoying dinner just recently, something seems a little too sweet and uberly comfortable about the two, who were both still looking delish dressed down in jeans.

The tattlers are on the move and when tongues start a-waggin’ …you’re sure there’s something saucy brewing.

Longoria just turned 37 recently and she’s definitely finding better ways  to start off another year to her name . The actress is looking forward to working on some good ole patriotic favors for Barack Obama’s bid for a second term. Aside from that, her ongoing contract with L’Oreal also keeps her on her toes with her duties as it’s beauty ambassador.

Ashton Kutcher must be cooking up something in his 10 million dollar pad. Roving eyes have been spotting some very personal home visits and midnight runs to the bachelor’s pad from high profile celebs.

Justin Bieber made a recent visit to Ashton’s abode, and apparently is interested in becoming the new owner of Kutcher’s pad. No real word of sale on the property has been released but, the 34 year old Ashton might be looking into possibities.

Then again, we can’t  see a common ground between Kutcher and Bieber for some male bonding other than their …uh, sordid tangles with the media and their private lives.

Another eye brow raising turn of event in the Kutcher pad, was 24 year old singer Rihanna who was spotted doing a midnight run along with her security posse’ to Ashton’s home.

Hmmm, is she looking to buy the property maybe? Or have they recently become close friends? Midnight friendly calls is pretty common for high profile celebs one would think, but probing questions are looming over this recent sighting, as our spotters noted Rihanna didn’t leave Ashton’s pad until around 4am.

So who knows what’s cooking at the Kutcher bachelor pad these days. All we know is that the recent divorce’ has signed up to be the 500th space traveller to take a voyage into space with Virgin Galactic. Yep, that’s the title of ‘astronaut’ if you want that written down on your resume’.

Jessica Alba Turns Author

Jessica Alba's Web Site
Jessica Alba is one of those mamas that go beyond hot. While I have never been particularly into her, her steel underneath sultry looks stand out. The actress, who also doubles as a wife and mom, has branched out into other endeavors. Recently, she launched her own business called The Honest Company. The idea is not new – there is a host of other companies in the same niche – but it seems to be a passion for Alba.

The Honest Company aims to deliver family products that are natural and safe. At the same time, it offers personalized service. It works by asking some questions of the consumer first in order to customize products that will be sent to your doorsteps on a monthly basis. No, I haven’t tried it, but it seems to be going well for the actress turned entrepreneur. Read the rest of this entry »

Jennifer Lopez Defends Her Love

Everyone seems to be abuzz on Jlo’s new hubba bubba ever since she’s been openly toting 24 year old Casper Smart alongside her almost everywhere these days. It was just recently at the elimination round on American Idol when Jlo had her boyfriend come around to visit the set and had a pretty good round of jabbing with host Ryan Seacrest. The couple were comfortable enough in view of the audience to exchange adoring gazes at each other while chitchatting during commercdial breaks.
The 42 yr old Idol judge has been defending her 5 month budding May –December love with her back up dancer saying that Smart is a really sweet guy and she doesn’t feel any older, and that she definitely doesn’t look any older than he is either. All she does is act the same way as she always does.
Coming out of a divorce from singer ex husband Marc Anthony, Lopez speaks proudly of how they have been handling things as parents to their twins. As for her current relationship, she would rather keep It private as she wants to be open to someone who fills the many spaces left neglected when she needed them in her marriage. Who’s to judge what love is between JLo and Casper Smart? Age is just a number.
