Sambora Triangle Saga goes on....


off of ONTD:

A new article in Life and Style claims that as Richie Sambora and Heather Locklear's high-profile divorce is close to reaching a settlement, Richie is having second thoughts and realizes how much he loves his wife of 11 years. He even sent a $500 pink and red rose bouquet to Heather.
The report details that with his divorce from Heather nearly final; Richie is having a change of heart. An insider tells the weekly magazine Life & Style that while Richie’s girlfriend, Denise Richards, was in Hawaii; Richie had two “incredibly emotional” phone conversations with Heather.

“He’s realizing its ending and doesn’t want it to,” the insider tells L&S. “He’s still in love with her.”

So what do men in love an in trouble do at times like this? Send flowers - or in Richie's case - a lot of flowers. The report claims that on Aug. 10, the insider says Richie sent Heather a massive $500 bouquet of red and pink roses.

Wow. He must realize what he's missing with Heather. Sambora was said to be totally surprised to be served divorce papers this February and even denied to the press that he and Heather were split. Maybe he's not ready to let go.

If that's true, it's got to piss off his media-whore girlfriend, Denise Richards. Denise recently reached an amicable "interim" settlement with her ex, Charlie Sheen, who she famously skewered in the press on the eve of his children's clothing line launch. Denise didn't renew a restraining order against Sheen and according to their lawyers they're getting along.

Denise and Richie were said to be planning a wedding for early next year, and Denise was seen wearing what looked like an engagement ring. She followed Richie to Europe while he was touring with Bon Jovi and seemed really needy in the relationship. If this is true then he's obviously sick of her. Men don't usually like women who hang all over them.

Speaking of Firecrotch....


from IDontLikeYouInThatWay.com:

Lindsay Lohan has been forbidden from attending Justin Timberlake's showcase for his new album FutureSex/LoveSounds at the House Of Blues in Los Angeles on Saturday because his advisers believe she'll show up and act like Lindsay Lohan. The Sun reports:

The layabout actress got her people to put the call in for tickets expecting the usual access-all-areas pass and an audience with Mr Timberlake. But Justin's advisers told him they don't want his name associated with the teen queen of bubblegum and bad news. A source said: "Justin's gig will be packed with Hollywood A-listers and a lot of important names in music. "The last thing his label want is Lindsay getting hammered and making a spectacle of herself, taking attention away from Justin and his new album. He has a lot riding on his big comeback and he doesn't need any distractions. His people reckon any association with socialite liggers like Lindsay are bad for his image and career."

If you had to guess what the word "ligger" meant, you'd probably assume it was bad. Turns out, you'd be right. "Bad" as in any scenario that would involve Lindsay Lohan out in public around an open bar. It would really be hard for Justin to concentrate on pretending he's Michael Jackson when the drunk Lindsay jumps on stage and starts singing into his backup dancer's penis.

Rehab Doesn't Work

and Brandon is still a douche.

from IDontLikeYouInThatWay.com:

Brandon Davis is apparently taking his rehab seriously. So much so that he jumped on stage, drunk, at Paris Hilton's CD release party, where he proceeded to announce to the crowd that he has recorded a song of his own:

I wrote a special new song called 'Firecrotch,' and it's for Lindsay Lohan!" He proceeded to ramble on, reminding folks about his infamous online video rant against the actress, which led to him checking into rehab in the first place. An insider tells us the "Firecrotch" song is real and was produced by Scott Storch, who twiddled knobs on Hilton's album.

Sounds like rehab didn't do much for Davis - who was also seen blotto on Sean Combs' yacht in St. Tropez recently.Honestly, you really can't blame Brandon Davis for beating this horse until it draws flies. "Firecrotch" is more than likely the most interesting thing he's ever said in his pampered life, and he probably thinks that all the attention he gets from saying it will make him an actual celebrity.

"Firecrotch!" is his "Whassup!" and his "Git-R-Done!" Sure, it's funny the first few times you hear it, then it just starts to sound desperate. Couple that with the fact that he willingly hangs around with Paris Hilton. You'd find more irony watching O.J. Simpson on Lifetime.

Katie let outside for a little while!!!




She's lookin good. Still no Suri along for the ride. I figure in about 20 years, we'll all find out about how fucked up this whole situation has been.

Surprise, surprise. A cheery Katie Holmes was spotted sans her still-unseen 4-month old alleged daughter Suri as she ventures out yesterday to her fave Beverly Hills store, Barneys New York, for some retail therapy.

Latest Brit preg news


I remember the rumor that she cried when she found out she was expecting again....and it's probably a good idea to get rid of the sharks, after brit's public fiascos with SPF and his high chair falling over, we wouldn't want any shark accidents, would we?

***

off of TMZ.com:

...she may have given K-Fed a Black AmEx recently, but Britney's taking away his six pet sharks in advance of the new little one's arrival.

As for the baby on the way, the eight-months-preggers pop princess says she doesn't yet know whether it's going to be a boy or a girl, according to an interview in this week's issue of People. As for how the unplanned child came to be? "It just kind of happened," she says.

What's more, with 11-month Sean Preston constantly in her arms, this time around has been tough: "I feel like I've been pregnant for 10 years!"And at this late stage in her pregnancy, Brit isn't denying herself any of the edibles she craves. "Crunching ice and chocolate, oh my God," she says. "I'll get up in the middle of the night and I'll get a Hershey's bar, the real big ones, and I'll put it in the microwave and melt it and eat it."

It's unclear whether the ice and chocolate actually get eaten together.But one thing that won't be around the Spears-Federline household any longer apparently are Kevin's six Australian gray nurse sharks, which Britney feels are a safety hazard with two tiny tots around. "Kevin loves those sharks," says "a family friend" to Life & Style magazine (via MSNBC). "He even named them. But Brit said there's no way he'd be keeping them."

Is Crazy Tom starting to learn?


Maybe his popularity plummeting and Paramount's lowering of his paycheck has put a reality check on the little fairy.

off of Msnbc.com:

Tom Cruise is making nice with his sweetie’s family. After an “emotional showdown” in which Katie Holmes demanded that Cruise make more concessions to her and her family, Cruise whisked Holmes’ family in his private plane to his hideaway in Telluride, Colorado, according to the National Enquirer. The family “bonded” with Cruise, reports the tab, which quotes a “family source” as saying, “He didn't talk Scientology once.”

Get Paris' STD's without even touching her!!!



I have to go laugh my ass off now.

off of TMZ.com:

Ever wondered what it might actually feel like to be Paris Hilton dancing on her own leather ottoman or gazing lovingly at herself in her own mirror? Well, neither have we, but if you're curious about where the lodging heiress sleeps, lounges, and keeps her clothes, a new auction of Paris' furniture might be of interest.

StarStyle has begun auctioning off a set of furniture on its website that it says was actually used by Paris in her Hollywood home. Amongst the items up for bid over the next eleven days are various side tables, an oriental rug, wicker lounge chairs, McGuire Tambour copper lamps, and the highly functional "elephant stand," all starting at a relatively budget $300 or less.

For the bigger spender (and more salacious-minded), there's the Milling Road Yorkshire Queen Size 4-post [sic] bed, which starts at a grand. Of course, caveat emptor: The small print for the item reads, "This is a used item so there has been some wear and tear..." Right.

Owen Wilson the reason for Kate Hudson's marriage split?

Personally, I don't see how it cold work, neither at this point seems the type to settle down with one person.

***

off of ONTD:

On Monday Kate Hudson announced that she was separating from her husband, Chris Robinson. This came as a complete shock to all of us. No reason was given for the split, but some people are saying that Kate became really close to her co-star, Owen Wilson, during filming of You, Me and Dupree.

She may have had an affair with the blonde idiot and left her husband for him.Others think that the media is just making shit up, that the marriage just ended because both are really busy.

Kate Hudson, Chris Robinson's now estranged wife, may have had an additional reason for splitting from husband Chris. Kate Hudson indulged in one on-screen kiss with her 'You Me And Dupree' co-star Owen Wilson and reports are that the two became "very close" during filming.

But did Hudson leave her hubby for the blonde actor?

It's now being specualted among media outlets that Hudson left her husband for Owen Wilson, but would she really do that after nearly six years of marriage? Here's a run-down of what's going on - you be the judge.

Kate Hudson, actress Goldie Hawn's daughter, has announced that she and her rocker hubby Chris Robinson have split. According to TMZ, Hudson and Robinson wed on New Year's Eve in 2000. They reportedly have a son, Ryder Russell, who was born on January 7, 2004.

In a statement to TMZ, Hudson's rep Brad Cafarelli said "Kate Hudson and Chris Robinson have confirmed that they are separated."

Hudson's views on marriage in recent times have changed from very positive to a little depressing. Maybe we should have gotten the hint during her interview with Elle magazine for the September cover story, where she said: "No one should get married if they think it's going to be a fairy tale." "I don't like this idea of the perfect marriage. People can be in love madly and deeply and go through so much and still end up together. That's what you hope for."

But when Star magazine published a story in August 2004 titled 'Kate Hudson Marriage on the Rocks?', the actress jumped to their defense."We are very, very happy," she had told Us Weekly to clear up the rumors."There are a million wonderful things I could say about my husband. Those rumors are not true, not true, not true."

The actress and singer dated for nearly a year before they tied the knot in 2000 on New Year's Eve.

The actress and Wilson recently shared an on-screen kiss for the making of 'You, Me And Dupree', but did it knock Hudson off her feet or is the media over-analyzing as usual?

Barkers Bark!

Blogger is seriously pissing me off with this pic issue.

off of TMZ.com:

Travis Barker's MySpace Lash Out

When Hollywood couples move to Splitsville, it never seems to be a smooth transition. The recent split between Blink 182's Travis Barker and wife and former Miss USA Shanna Moakler is no exception, and now the split has spilled into MySpace.

Shanna "officially" commented on the split last Tuesday on her MySpace page, telling fans that she was devastated by the demise of her marriage. Now, following in her footsteps, Travis Barker has lashed back with a detailed blog on his MySpace page describing in his opinion what life with the Barkers was actually like and what it was that he says wrecked their marriage.

Travis says at one point he found condoms at his house and says "we don't use condoms ever." He talks about her alleged partying and claims that a "normal" day is him and the kids getting up around 7 a.m. while Shanna sleeps in until 2 p.m The nanny, who he says the kids often call "mommy," gets the kids ready for the day while Shanna takes care of more important things like getting her nails done.

Barker also says his wife didn't tell him about her turn on "Dancing with the Stars."

In his letter he says that when you're pushed, you push back.

This morning, Shanna issued the following statement to TMZ: "If that MySpace site was truly created by Travis then I'm seriously concerned for his mental well being. The picture he paints is so far-fetched that I can't believe this is his reality. If it is, then I'm truly concerned for him. Perhaps the lifestyle he leads is taking its toll on him. For the sake of our children I hope that he seeks professional help."

UPDATE 2:03 p.m. ET: Barker has apparently removed his posting from his MySpace page. Calls to Barker's rep were not immediately returned.

A good deed by Cruise

I suppose he needs some good PR right now. In my cynical, skeptical little heart, I have to wonder is this was staged by the C of $....

sorry for no pics, blogger, yet again, is being a nasty bitch.

Cruise helps motorists, calls publicist
August 14, 2006

Pretend for a moment that you've just been in a car accident. You're discombobulated, a little scared and perhaps even in pain. At that moment, all you want is the comforting wail of sirens. Instead, you find yourself face-to-face with the shiny toothed twosome of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.

Scary thought, right?

But that's the scene that unfolded Saturday night along L.A.'s 101 freeway, as the PR-battered parents of the conspiracy-surrounded Suri supposedly came to the aid of two "shaken accident victims," their rep tells People (we're assuming they were "shaken" before encountering TomKat).

Cruise and Holmes were heading home to Beverly Hills from the airport after taking in an exhibition soccer game featuring friend-of-Tom David Beckham in Salt Lake City when they stopped to help the couple, identified as one Jon Henningsen and his wife.

Cruise, whose medical knowledge apparently extends beyond just postpartum depression and the proper use of a sonogram machine, reportedly ascertained, with his glassy eyed bride-to-be's assistance, that the Henningsens "were not seriously injured," and they remained with them until emergency personnel arrived.

Alas, it doesn't appear that Suri was riding along with her Good Samaritan-playing parents, although if she had been, we're sure the Henningsens would have found her both "beautiful" and of "normal size."

Cynical types out there (hey, whaddya looking at us for?) will wonder whether someone in the Cruise camp recently stumbled across the manual once used so successfully by his former rep Pat Kingsley during his preproselytizing PR heyday, when tales of his heroic real-life rescues were as common as Katie's caffeine and Barney's runs.

Highlights from the People-dubbed "Tom Terrific" era include reports of how he allegedly leapt into action to help a female mugging victim; a female hit-and-run victim; and a family whose yacht was on fire and rapidly sinking.

Cruise also enjoyed plenty of positive press after he fished a 7-year-old boy out of a crush of fans at the London premiere of "Mission: Impossible" ("It was scary, man. I could see the color draining from the kid's face," he said at the time).

Speaking of "scary" and "kids," has the mysterious but supposedly genetically gifted Suri finally been captured on film?

Last week, helicopter-hovering shutterbugs from photo agency X17 snapped fuzzy photos that appear to show Holmes staring out a window of Cruise's fortified Beverly Hills compound (perhaps thinking wistfully of those carefree days on the set of "Dawson's Creek") with what appears to be a diaper-clad infant hovering hazily in the background.

The long-distance shots surfaced not long after the New York Post reported Annie Leibovitz had photographed Suri for an upcoming issue of Vanity Fair (the photog's rep disavowed all knowledge of the supposed shoot). Unfortunately, the paparazzi pics aren't distinct enough to determine whether there's actual mommy-and-me time going on or if someone just stuck a cardboard Katie cutout from "Batman Begins" in front of a blown-up photo of Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.

Meanwhile, in still more Suri-sighting news, another eyewitness has come forward to confirm her much-lauded beauty. An anonymous source tells the New York Daily News that the "Dianetics"-devoted duo recently showed off their Sasquatch-like sprout at a roller-skating birthday party for Will and Jada Pinkett Smith's son, Jaden.

"Suri is a beautiful baby," gushes the mole. "She had no deformities that I could see! She has a gorgeous head full of dark, curly hair, and she resembles both parents, though she looks slightly more like Tom."

While "no deformities" is certainly one of the highest compliments one can pay to a four-month-old, the source's story seems to have some holes big enough for Xenu to fly his spaceship through.

For instance, Jaden's birthday falls on July 8, which was smack in the middle of Cruise and Holmes' summer vacation in Telluride, Colo. And in late July, Jada told People how she and Will had twice visited the "gorgeous" Suri at Cruise's mansion, never mentioning a meet-up at their son's birthday party.

The account of Suri's "curly" hair also differs from an earlier sighting in Us Weekly, in which a snitch claimed she had "dark, straight hair."

Another head-scratcher: Tom and Katie didn't join in on the roller-skating fun, even though they enjoyed ice-skating in the freezing rain during a New York City outing while Holmes was about five months along.

Kate Moss To Get Married

Kate Moss is reportedly planning to marry Pete Doherty after he bought her a diamond engagement ring.

The couple were seen kissing on Friday (08.11.06) at the recording ofBritish music TV show 'Transmission' and Kate was wearing a huge vintagediamond ring on her engagement finger.

Friends of the supermodel have revealed the ring was a present given to herby junkie rocker Doherty last week. They also said that when Kate attended Primal Scream singer Bobby Gillespie's wedding two weeks ago she told them: "It's going to be me next."

On Friday, the happy couple left TV studio together and spent the night atthe home of Kate's actress friend Davinia Taylor.

A friend of Kate's told Britain's Daily Mail newspaper: "Even when she was supposed to be with the comedian Russell Brand she was still secretly seeingPete."

She may be off the cocaine but Pete is like an addiction that she can't cure." Doherty recently attended a rehab clinic in Lisbon, Portugal, to try to kickhis crack and heroin addiction again. On entering the clinic the Babyshambles singer pledged he would marry Kateonce he was clean.

The couple first got together at Kate's 31st birthday in January last year,but split a few months later after the model was photographed snortingcocaine.This week Kate plans to fly to Ibiza with Doherty, where Babyshambles will perform at the annual Ibiza Rocks event.

It is rumoured that the model's friend Jade Jagger plans to throw anengagement party for them on the idyllic island.

Sooner or later....


It was bound to happen. You know you've fantasized about it. I know you have, I saw! perv!

Are You Ready For Muppet Porn?

Posted Aug 14th 2006 3:10PM by TMZ StaffFiled under: Wacky and Weird

First there were Tommy Lee and Pam and Paris and Rick. Now, the public could soon witness an even more shocking celebrity sex romp -- Kermit and Miss Piggy. Seriously. It turns out the creators of "The Muppets" and "Sesame Street" are staging a rude and lewd puppet show- strictly for adults- called "Jim Henson's Puppet Improv."

The live puppet show has already made quite an impression at the annual Edinburgh Fringe arts festival, which features this kind of adult, er, entertainment.

The late Jim Henson's son Brian, director of the "Muppet Christmas" and "Muppet Treasure Island" movies, tells Reuters "That really pleases me," and says he is reveling in the freedom of performing for adults only.

"It is lovely to do a show where you can go wherever your brain takes you," says Henson, winding down after a show where the audience asked the puppeteers to feature six hot dogs auditioning to be Ricky Martin's backup singers.

Henson, who has performed the improvisation show in Aspen and Hollywood, says he hopes to develop the edgy routine into a TV show. Two other projects he is working on are also just for adults.

"There is something really therapeutic for us about this adult improv," he says. So could Fozzie "Bare" and "Groper" be making their way onto the small screen in the near future? One can only hope.

All the spilt ups going on!


here's another one!

Fatherhood a financial incentive for K-Fed?

By Jeannette Walls
MSNBC

Does Kevin Federline have more reason than most to celebrate fatherhood?

The former backup dancer is expecting his second child with wife Britney Spears (he has two others with a former girlfriend) but a source says K-Fed might have more reason than many to celebrate the pitter patter of little feet.

“Before he got married, Kevin was sitting down with lawyers, discussing legal and financial issues,” says a source. “He was sitting sort of slumped over with a baseball cap over his eyes and a lawyer was talking about how he had to sign a pre-nup and Kevin looked sort of bummed out. But then the lawyer explained that for every child the two of you have together, you would receive X amount of dollars. His eyes really lit up.”
