From Underground Buzz:

1. A big scandal is brewing for a top Hollywood Star. He is successful, charismatic and appears to be a loving father and husband. There are rumors that he likes to spend time with male escorts. If the scandal comes out, look for him to turn to religion to quell the controversy.

2. This young actor signed on a TV series thinking he was going to be the star of the show. Well his co-stars are outshining him by winning awards and acclaim. The Actor is not happy about the situation, but, since he needs the money, he’s staying put.

3. Sometimes it doesn’t pay to listen to your mother. This singer is trying to downplay his marriage to help salvage his career, but his very pregnant wife isn’t going anywhere. She plans to stay married to the singer despite his mother’s publicity machine.

I have a very hard time believing that America has any mean bone in her body...unless it's from a guy she likes....from yahoo news:

Who was the real Mean Girl on the set when Lindsay Lohan resumed her Ugly Betty run — the tabloid mainstay, or series lead America Ferrera?

The New York Post's Page Six column claims that after some indecent behavior — including, perhaps, the forgoing of bloomers for a scene in which Betty tugs down her high-school nemesis' trou — Lohan was abruptly cut loose from her guest-star turn, which this season was to last six episodes.

A pal of Lohan's, however, argues that Ferrera, drunk on power, "was mean to Lindsay" and "got her kicked off" the last two episodes she was supposed to film. A spokesperson for Ferrera would only tell the Post, "America is grateful to have had [Lindsay] on the show and thinks everyone should tune in to see how great the episodes [resuming this Thursday at 8 pm/ET] are."

Other online accounts of the alleged on-set squabble claim that not only was Lohan's visit truncated, but that she is being edited out of anything that already had been filmed.

Well-placed sources tell TVGuide.com that such "editing" rumors are completely untrue, but confirm that Lohan's run will end early — though strictly for "storyline purposes." Summing up the rash of Thursday-morning gossip, one setsider tells us, "It's all so silly."

Lohan's publicist, Leslie Sloane Zelnick, has yet to respond to our request for comment.

Chef gets the last laugh

Too funny, too cool and what a slap to the C of $.....from Foxnews.com:

The last will and testament of the late superstar Isaac Hayes’s is being probated right now. And guess what? Hayes left nothing to the Church of Scientology.

This news must sting something awful, as numerous well-known Scientologists attended not one but maybe four different funerals and memorial services for Hayes in August after he died.
But according to sources who know the inner workings of Hayes’s estate, the "Shaft" composer divided his will in thirds. Portions go to his 11 elder children; his widow and young son; and his charitable foundation.

There was no provision for the Church, which ordinarily requires its celebrity members to pony up while they’re alive. Big donors include usual suspects Tom Cruise, John Travolta and Kelly Preston, and so on.

Preston, who knew Hayes only slightly through the church, carried on at both Memphis funerals, crying on cue and blubbering to anyone who’d listen about how much she "loved" Hayes. This amused to no end the Memphis musicians who’d known Hayes for 40 years.

According to insiders, the big question now is how to handle the third going to the Isaac Hayes Foundation. Because the organization is not now terribly active, some legal moves may be made to redistribute that part of the estate to the other heirs.

Hayes’s eldest daughter, Jacqueline, is said to be in the forefront of trying to settle all matters. Certainly Hayes’s heirs are keeping a keen eye on their father’s copyrights. Many of them were renewed beginning in 1995-96 for a second 28 year term. But when those start expiring in 2024, the family will come into a fortune thanks to the Songwriters Act of 1927:

Rights to previously sold catalogs revert to songwriters’ heirs once they have died, as soon as copyrights are up for renewal. Thus, Hayes’s half of songs he wrote for Sam Moore & Dave Prater with David Porter in 1965-68, like "Soul Man" and "Hold On I’m Coming" will go to Hayes’s grandkids and great grand kids. By 2028, the biggest Hayes copyright, "Theme from Shaft," will come to them as well.

Guy has a new girl already! And she's cute! And of course, much younger than Hag Madge. Get the popcorn, Mary! This is gona get fun! From ONTD:

The New York Daily News is reporting that Guy Ritchie has a shoulder to cry on. She is 31-year-old Kelly Reilly, a sultry blue-eyed, fiery red-head who is starring in the director's new "Holmes" flick.

From the UK Telegraph:

"Reilly has been building up a care-fully chosen portfolio of film work, including the monstrously snobbish Caroline Bingley in Joe Wright's Pride and Prejudice, a lead dancer in Mrs Henderson Presents – Stephen Frears's real-life story of wartime at the Windmill Theatre and Romain Duris's love interest in Cédric Klapisch's art-house film, Les Poupées Russes (for which she won Best Newcomer Award at the 2005 Cannes Film Festival)".

One of the BEST SONGS EVER

Under the Milky Way by The Church

Great Discretion....

IUC Exclusive: Is Will Smith light in the loafers? Hollywood Madame reveals Smith has had Dalliances with Male Prositutes

IUC has learned actor Will Smith has swung both ways for years. According to a notorious Hollywood Madame, Smith was a client of hers for years before she packed up shop and moved her operation to Manhattan earlier this year. She remembers the first time she ever spoke with Smith. “I had to reassure him over and over that I could guarantee discretion,” she said. “Once I convinced him I could, he placed his order. It was for a man. I had 14 women working for me and two guys. You’d be surprised at how many Hollywood stars requested the services of the guys.”

Could Smith’s proclivities account for his recent apparent conversion to Scientology, a religion that’s chief appeal in Hollywood appears to be its promise to turn gay people straight. At least according to long-time Scientologist Michael Pattinson, who sued the Church for failing to keep that promise after he shelled out $500,000 in auditing fees over a 25-year period but was never “cured” of his homosexuality as promised.

Smith has been palling around with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes for over a year, although his publicist has denied that he has converted to the religion whose most famous adherent is his friend Cruise. But, according to the New York Daily News, Smith attended the wrap party for his recent film, Hancock, and handed out gifts to the crew members that consisted of a free personality test at their local Scientology center. Last December, in an interview with Access Hollywood, Smith addressed his apparent infatuation with Scientology. “I was introduced to it by Tom, and I’m a student of world religion. I was raised in a Baptist household. I went to a Catholic school, but the ideas of the Bible are 98% the same ideas of Scientology, 98% the same ideas of Hinduism and Buddhism.”

We know that Scientology has at least one thing in common with most of the world’s major religions - rabid homophobia. The religion’s founder, L. Ron Hubbard, believed homosexuals should be quarantined from society because he considered gays to be “quite ill physically” and homosexuality a “mental aberration.”

*If he had really studied Buddhism, like for even 5 minutes, he'd realize that it doesn't recognize any supernatural external force running the universe or people's lives....thus very different from the bible....also different is that the buddha never claimed to be divine, of the divine, from the divine or of any divine nature....so suck it Will. I think you already do.*
