LOL Blind Item!

Rush & Molloy/NY DAILY NEWS
Which wonky reality show star quietly checked into a California rehab center only to head for the exits when the staff said they would be searching her bags? Wait, you mean you can't take drugs into rehab?
My two cents

Ok, ok....I'm confused over the Miley Cyrus "oh my god she looks like she just had sex" pic.....c'mon, teenagers do fuck, as expressed here on defamer.
What bothers me, as a photographer myself, is that this is a very cold picture and I don't see it as representational of AL's work. It seems the life has already been sucked out of Miley. Maybe somehow, that's what it's supposed to represent, not a pictorial debut of Miley Cyrus as a sexual being, but her death on the inside as she has officially becomes yet one more cog in the media/hollywood/sensationalistic machine. She is now emotional sausage, no more different or lively than those who went before her (Brooke Shields, Britney Spears, Tatum O'Neal, Drew Barrymore or Jodie Foster, not withstanding others I can't think of right this moment).
Yes, I think it's supposed to show the very moment the life has been trounced out of her, with the dead eyes and clammy body look. May as well bury her in that white sheet, as she clings to what is left of her self. She is wholly owned now, poor thing.
Oh, snap!

Rex Features
According to the Daily Mail, the US popstar was angry when she realised that her lover had given the same 15-carat diamond cluster to his ex-girlfriend Selita Ebanks.
A source said: "Mariah was very upset when it was claimed the ring was secondhand and had been used on his previous fiancée.
"She's so embarrassed. She certainly won't be wearing it in public again."
The news follows reports that Carey married the actor earlier this week in secret in the Bahamas.

I Still Think $citard Tom is Crazy

from gossip rocks, who bothered to piece this together, so I didn't have to...Also I have no plans to bother with seeing Mission Impossible 4:
Tom Cruise to Oprah:
"I Have Been Misunderstood"
Friday May 2, 2008
Harpo Productions, Inc.
In the first part of his interview with Oprah Winfrey (airing Friday), Tom Cruise reveals that he jumped on her couch in 2005 because he was so in love with Katie Holmes and couldn't contain himself.
Winfrey confessed that the incident caught her by surprise.
"When we finished that show with you jumping up on the sofa, I was like, 'Wow. What was that?'" she tells him in an interview in his Telluride, Colo., home. "I had no idea it was going to turn into an international brouhaha, as I'm sure you did not either."
She even confesses, "I was a little nervous coming up this morning, I have to admit, because you and I have not sat down for a real conversation since the sofa incident."
Cruise tells Winfrey, "I just felt that way, and I feel that way about her.
"I can't even articulate it, to be honest," he adds. "That feeling, that connection. Just who she is and what she means to me."
Of the negative response to his couch jumping, Cruise says, "It just kind of kept going.
"Those things I kind of go, 'You just have to take in stride.' It just kind of became a confluence of things."
ON ATTACKING MATT LAUER
He also opened up about his 2005 interview with Matt Lauer (Cruise attacked the anchor, calling him "glib" during a chat about psychiatry and the use of anti-depressant drugs).
"I was feeling pressed in the interview with Matt Lauer," Cruise says. "For me, my issue was really about child drugging. It's not like it is today, like people are really kind of openly talking about this."
(Cruise now says of medicating children, "I think the parent should be able to and should make that decision.")
ON SLAMMING BROOKE SHIELDS
He says his comments on post-partum depression "came out wrong." (He slammed Brooke Shields in the same 2005 interview for taking Paxil to treat post-partum depression following the birth of her daughter Rowan.)
"What I regret is even discussing Brooke in any way," Cruise says.
He says the incident has brought the two of them "closer" (Shields attended his 2006 wedding to Holmes.)
ON BEING A SCIENTOLOGIST
Cruise dodges Winfrey's question about whether he feels people negatively target him because of his Scientology involvement.
"It's a minority religion, and I think that sometimes people misinterpret [it]," he says. "I think the best thing is for people to read about it themselves. I believe people have the right to choose what they believe in.
"The code of Scientologists says you respect the religious beliefs of others," Cruise adds. "That's part of being a Scientologist, and that's who I am as a person."
In January, videos leaked online of Cruise at Scientology events discussing the religion. He says the footage "was stolen. I was receiving an award that evening for global literacy. It was a very private moment. I'm actually talking to my congregation."
"It's [taken] totally out of context," he adds.
ON KEEPING SURI HIDDEN FOR SO LONG
Lots of rumors spread about their daughter, Suri, because the couple kept her hidden after she was born. Some blogs speculated that the child was deformed. That talk, Cruise says, was "hard to hear.
"We just want to have our baby, have the kids and everyone get to know Suri, get the family up here and just chill and have that time that you never get back," he explains. "You don't ever get those moments back."
On waiting three months to publish her photo in Vanity Fair in 2006, Cruise says, "Kate and I didn't feel any need to [rush] it. We said, 'Why? It's our family.' We just were on Suri time."
ON HIS MARRIAGE WITH HOLMES BEING FAKE
"That's laughable to me," Cruise says. 'You just know that they're trying to sell it and spin it."
He says Holmes' Catholic family has welcomed him.
"They're amazing. I love them," Cruise says. "You see why Kate is such an amazing woman -- incredible integrity and strength. They're family."
ON RUMORS THAT HE HAS PUSHED NICOLE KIDMAN OUT OF THEIR KIDS' LIVES
"No, that's ridiculous," he says. "We share custody. That's what it is."
ON HIS REPUTATION
"Listen I, I feel like definitely things have been misunderstood, and there are things I could have done better," Cruise admits. "But then there's also that world where you go, 'Oh, it's been spun to such an extent that ... that's a truth also.'
He continues, "Knowing when and where to communicate, I think that's important.
"A lot of times I was nervous giving interviews. Or I wasn't sometimes as comfortable about things. And I realized that it's okay.
"There's stuff you have to just let go," Cruise adds. "I just have to do the best I can."

*I don't buy it, he's still so far removed from reality that he has no clue. Sad, really*
Story Time!

So, my dealer and I were at a bar (shock! What do you mean?) and it was crazy enough that this old African American guy decided he had to come over and talk to us, telling us about our zodiac signs were and what they meant and all....I love it when someone thinks they can totally relate and know who you are just because of what your birthdate is.....I mean, I thought that was all over when it was figured out that the earth is not, in fact, flat, nor is it the center of the universe.....anyway, he was quite drunk and eventually started going on about being from another planet called Altreus or some shit. He said that you got there be getting in an aluminum box (a coffin?), going underground and through a tube that shot you into space and there or something.....
My dealer was trying to not laugh, I had my "oh really?" face on and another guy who happened to sit next to us was subjected to this spectacle as well.....I wondered if he was a $citard. It got even funnier! He sighed and sat back saying that he was very tired, having died and been reborn several times, he had been to many different planets and didn't even know which one he was on right now.....Right before he left he asked the barmaid if he was crazy, to which she diplomatically replied that she was no one to judge.
We were about to die laughing after he left, noting that he had stated that at one point he had been on the air as a DJ in Cincinnatti and I said he should have his own radio show, People would tune in just to hear the crazy! My dealer told the barmaid that when the crazy guy asked her if he was crazy, she should have said an clear "yes, you're bat shit nuts." (This is where it gets really crazy). The barmaid, who obviously wasn't hired for her intellectual ability or was very stoned, I'm not sure which, said, "Bats shit nuts? I didn't know bats ate nuts." My dealer and I both looked at her like, whut?
And after having had enough crazy, we left.
Iron Man

Just got back from seeing it and was NOT disappointed! Very clever, very fun, very much recommend! LOVE Robert Downey Jr., he was the perfect pick to play Tony Stark. I would wreck my body for that man, I would have his babies! So sexy, so totally Mr. Cool.
Iron Man is the story of playboy Tony stark, who inherited his father's weapons manufacturing empire. He plays, he drinks, he fucks. He gets kidnapped after a horrible landmine incident and his life is changed after being saved by a fellow prisoner, who happens to be a doctor. I don't want to give to much away. But Iron Man is born and Tony Manages to escape. It is an easy role, at least RDJ seemed to assume the role with ease, convincing us without effort that he is, in fact, Tony Stark.
Gwyneth Paltrow plays his personal assistant, or as is common in action movies, "the girl." "The girl" isn't a difficult role, she just has to fulfill whatever look is required for the picture. She isn't bad as Pepper Potts. At first she is dry, but shows that she has a human side and true affection for her boss, Tony Stark.
The bad guy turns out to be Tony's longtime business partner, who was also his father's friend, but again, I don't want to give too much away.
Overall, Iron Man was inspiring, awing, great fun and I want to own a copy. The writing was good, the acting was top-notch and I was not bored at any time during the film. It did not reach too far or try to hard to impress, it didn't need to. Forget Batman, Forget Superman, Iron Man is supreme! The message that I took away, intended or not, was that unlike the typical American "Throw a bunch of money at some stuff and the problem will be solved" was more like "Throw a lot of money at one specific problem and you can probably not only solve it but others could benefit as well."
Be sure to stay for the very very end, after all the credits have rolled, to see a quick preview of Iron Man 2.

WTF
"The AMPTP has been negotiating with SAG now for 13 days. Last week, we asked AFTRA to delay the start of its negotiations until May 5th so that we could give the SAG talks every opportunity to produce an agreement. Since the SAG negotiations are due to wrap up on Friday, May 2nd, today is a good time to let you know where things stand.
When we requested an extra week for the SAG negotiations, we told you that there were "significant gaps" between the parties. Candidly, we must offer the same assessment of the negotiations today, with just over two days to go. Although both parties have spent considerable time in the negotiating room, we are not yet close to an agreement. This is the case for two fundamental reasons:
SAG contracts are up with the AMPTP (studios/producers/media companies). AMPTP wants them to use the same formula as the deal they made with the Writers. SAG eventually agreed, but want to make over 70 changes (including wage hikes up to 200%). This would lead to enormous cost increases. Studio's will likely not green-light any new projects because of fear of the strike, which could last to mid-July.Ew
Looks like the celebrity baby boom that started last year is far from over. Move over Angelina and Ashlee because Beyonce is going to be adding her name onto the celebrity mommy list.Hollyscoop has learned exclusively through multiple sources that Beyonce is expecting. A source close to the couple revealed, "Beyonce is 100% pregnant, which is why the couple rushed their wedding." The source also told Hollyscoop that all the friends and family that attended the ultra private wedding were all aware that Beyonce was already expecting.
Our source added that Beyonce is in her early stages, but don’t expect this star to come out with a confirmation statement anytime soon. The couple is pretty private about their personal lives--they still haven't even confirmed their wedding. But the source confirmed that she is expecting and they rushed the wedding due to Beyonce's strong Christian beliefs.

You're Shitting Me

May 1, 2008 --
"Touch My Body" singer Mariah Carey got secretly hitched to her 27-year-old boyfriend-of-one-month, shocking the chart-topping songbird's family and friends, The Post has learned.
Carey married little-screen actor Nick Cannon at the home Carey just bought in Eleuthera, the Bahamas, a source close to the singer said.
"They have been smitten with each other for days, weeks," the friend said. "And she's always had a crush on him."
It's the second marriage for Carey, who took her first walk down the aisle with record kingpin Tommy Mottola.
Cannon has last been linked with Victoria's Secret model Selita Ebanks, to whom Cannon proposed via the Times Square jumbotron. Five months later, the couple broke up.
Carey, 38, and her boy-toy had tongues wagging when she was seen sporting Cannon on her arm and a shiny ring on her finger at the Tribeca Film Festival.
When asked what he loved about Carey, Cannon reportedly cooed "everything."
"Everyone is happy to see her happy," Carey's friend told The Post. "And it could work out -" some people know each other for five years and get divorced, maybe this is true instant love."
Not everyone is so over-the-moon.
"There was no pre-nup - there wasn't time," said another worried source.
Guests at the wedding included Carey's longtime pal, rapper Da Brat.
Falling Down
Hear for yourself.
Here's one review from handbag gossip:
Falling Down, a new track from Scarlett Johansson, has appeared online and been roundly panned by critics. The track is from Scarlett’s upcoming album Anywhere I Lay My Head, a record of Tom Waits covers, and features David Bowie on backing vocals.
*Really, ScarJo? Just a cover of somebodyelse's songs? Really? An entire fucking album of it?*
The on line response hasn’t been good. “Warning! There's a rumour going around that some people have heard this version of the song and never smiled again,” say gossip site Holy Moly. While top gossip blog What Would Tyler Durden Do was less kind. “Scarlett Johansson has set the new bar for awfulness with her Tom Waits cover of Falling Down. The only way this experience could be any worse is if this monitor grew arms and started stabbing you.”

Well, duh!
from handbag gossip:
Scientology is being blamed for a reported rift between the Cruises and the Beckhams, the Daily Mail claims. A source tells the paper, "Katie and Tom want to surround themselves with fellow Scientologists these days, and they are distancing themselves from anyone who is not a believer. For Tom, a non-believer like Victoria is very dangerous. She is opinionated, strong-minded, privately very against Scientology and has voiced her doubts." However Tom's spokeswoman Julie Polkes denies the claims. "Tom does not judge his friends habits or non-habits," she explained. "The constant reports they are not friends are ridiculous. Tom and Katie are extremely close to the Beckhams."

Britney looks good!

She was leaving a recording studio wearing a nightgown she stole from grandma.....but she's looking better!
Leah Remini is a horrible mother

Leah Remini's daughter, Sofia Bella, is nearly 4-years-old and she's still on the bottle. Leah invited The Rachael Ray show into her home to share her struggle in getting her daughter off the bottle.
She said, "My daughter runs the house. The problem I'm having with bottle-feeding is basically that Sofia drinks six or more bottles a night. We're hearing that it's not good for her. In talking to our pediatrician, they almost fell off their chair when we said she's still on the bottle. So I'm thinking maybe it's not right."
Hmm....you think? Something tells me her "pediatrician" is Tom Cruise. Don't those Scientologists give you classes on how to take care of your kid and shit? Yeah, those classes probably just teach you how to brainwash your kids properly.
Leah and her husband have become exhausted from changing diapers and bottles at all hours. Leah also doesn't think you should judge her ass. She told the NYDN, "They might have their kid off the bottle, but that kid still may be walking around with a pacifier in their mouth, which according to pediatricians is equally as bad."
Rachael introduced Leah to another pediatrician who is helping her get Sofia Bella off the bottle. A Rachael Ray viewer and mother of three was also brought in to help Leah with her first night of weaning Sofia off the bottle.
Things didn't go so well and Sofia Bella started crying immediately for her bottle. Leah said, "Sofia was crying again for a bottle of milk and then I started crying I think because I felt so bad. It just doesn't feel right for me to have a screaming baby and to say no to a bottle." Leah is still working at getting her daughter off the bottle, but said it's not going to happen overnight.
I'm not a mother or anything, but shouldn't you be off the bottle by the age of 4?

Madonna: In it for herself?

I do give Britney credit for at least having the sense to not get involved in Madonna's cult. It all smells like bullshit to me. Madge, you are so far removed from the real world and from real people that you simply no longer have a clue. Sit down and STFU.
from foxnews:
Madonna Film: Kabbalah Propaganda
It’s not new to say that Madonna Louise Ciccone has a lot of nerve. After all, she’s said and done just about everything to get our attention, including a book of her sex poses.
However: The documentary she’s made about Africa, "I Am Because We Are," sort of takes the cake and shoves it in the face of the audience. The film, made by her former gardener but with her imprimatur, debuted Thursday night at the Tribeca Film Festival.
Condescending? Yes. Unknowing? Oh, you’d best believe it. NaĂŻve? Eminently.
The pièce de résistance came after the screening, when one audience member asked what our government can do or is doing about Malawi?
Madonna’s informed reply: "I don’t know what our government does," she said, eliciting laughter, "except put us into debt and blow up other countries."
Maybe she should look this up: According to USAID Malawi, the United States gives $35 million annually to the tiny country. And that’s just a small example of aid that’s been given and still is to Malawi not just from the U.S., but from Britain and other countries. Simply Google "Malawi" and "U.S. aid" to find many dozens of instances of help that seem to have escaped Madonna’s purview.
But the worst thing about Madonna’s take on the poor southern African country of Malawi is that she and the gardener — Nathan Rissman — deliver a sizeable wallop of the Kabbalah Center of Los Angeles without informing the audience about what’s going on.
Indeed, the film uses Harvard celebrity sycophant Jeffrey Sachs and a number of Malawi's government officials and mixes them in with Kabbalah staff and philosophy. Even Bill Clinton is thrown in. The result is that all these people seem implicitly to endorse Kabbalah.
What Madonna and Rissman conveniently leave out of "I Am" is that SFK, a philosophy adopted by the Malawians in the film, stands for Spirituality for Kids, which is the teaching curriculum for Philip Berg’s Kabbalah Center in Los Angeles.
The Kabbalah Center has nothing to do with Judaism. It’s a wholly original process conceived by Berg and his wife, Karen. Some might say it’s a pyramid scheme. At the very least, it’s a cult.
Madonna and Rissman are clever about the way "SFK" is woven into "I Am." For the first hour of the film, it’s not even mentioned. Instead, we hear and see horror stories about Malawi's children and mothers living with and dying from AIDS. We’re told over and over that Madonna’s foundation is going to change all of this.
And yet, Madonna’s foundation, Raising Malawi, still remains unregistered as an official charity in the United States. Her Web site refers back to Spirituality for Kids, a main division of the Kabbalah Center. High-up members of Kabbalah also are on the Raising Malawi board. Contributions made to Raising Malawi — such as the $3.7 million raised with Gucci in February — go straight to "SFK" and Kabbalah.
The pictures in "I Am Because We Are" are graphic; the stories are hair-raising and tragic. But the overall effect is like watching a late-night infomercial from the Christian Children’s Fund.
Better than "I Am Because We Are," the film could have been called, "Rich Rock Star Discovers Disease and Poverty in Africa." This part of the film reminded me of a story about a newly hired British editor at a New York magazine who returned from lunch one December and exclaimed: "Did you know there was a big Christmas tree in Rockefeller Center?"
And you know she is well-meaning. Despite the Kabbalah babble and Madonna’s underlying persistence in explaining how she adopted a child in violation of Malawi law, her narration suggests that she was truly overwhelmed when she first set foot in that country. But this happens to anyone who goes to Africa for the first time. I get it. I felt the same way the first time I saw conditions in neighboring countries like Zambia and Botswana.
The problem with "I Am" is that neither Madonna nor Rissman really has any concept of anything other than her interests. Now that she has discovered Malawi, it doesn’t occur to Madonna that other agencies are working there, that anyone else has ever noticed or done anything to help their people or that the government — theirs, ours — cares one bit. She’s Madonna, she’s arrived and the problem will be solved.
Worse still is that, via her narration, we’re not sure if Madonna thinks the people of the country are smart or stupid, motivated or lazy. She declares the Malawians have a wonderful spirit, then declares that no such feeling could ever be found on Central Park West, Rodeo Drive or London’s Park Lane. (These apparently are the only other world references in her life.) It’s quite appalling.
I’m paraphrasing here, but there’s actually a moment in the narration where she declares: "Can you imagine another place where people are good to each other, care about each other or care about each other?" The actual quote is better than that, but it’s maybe the most ridiculous thing ever uttered on film.
Indeed, the film actually shows Malawi's adults regurgitating Kabbalah propaganda they’ve been inculcated with in order to teach the orphans in their country. (No mention is made in the film of the Kabbalah Center's flying them to Los Angeles for this indoctrination.)
It’s kind of shocking — after seeing all the poverty and disease that’s been imposed on them — to hear Malawi's children then recite back the Kabbalah/SFK dictum that they themselves "are responsible for their choices" and that "their actions can positively influence the quality of their lives." Is the moral of Madonna’s movie: Pull yourselves up by your bootstraps?
The brief Q&A session with Madonna and Rissman came after the screening and — I must add this — a standing ovation from the lemming-like audience of people who probably have never read an issue of Foreign Affairs. One woman behind me kept raising her hand to ask a question, adding "I’m from Africa!" She was ignored.
Jamie Lynn Spears is still an idiot

Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant but apparently she was under the impression that she would get fat for a while then doctor would walk her down to the river where her new baby would be wrapped in blankets and floating in a basket. She doesn't seem to like the alternative. Star Magazine says:
A source tells Star that when the Spears family matriarch showed her seven-months-pregnant 17-year-old daughter a video of a real natural childbirth, Jamie Lynn threw up! "Lynne was trying to be helpful," a source tells Star. "She wanted to show Jamie Lynn what a woman goes through giving birth, that it's a natural and beautiful thing, but all Jamie Lynn saw was the blood - or 'goop,' as she called it - the screaming and the pain. It was too graphic for her. She flipped out and literally got sick." Now Jamie Lynn is totally freaked out. "She is wondering if a C-section is possible," the source adds. "She wants to be knocked out and then wake up when it's all over."
*Maybe mama shoulda showed that to the little ho before she got knocked up*

Jones married Al Reynolds, 39, at Saint Bartholomew's Church in New York City on Nov. 13, 2004. The wedding, which had 500 hundred guests, three matrons of honors, 12 bridesmaids and four flower girls, came under scrutiny when Jones discussed its sponsors at length on her ABC show.
An attorney, Jones began her broadcasting career as a commentator on Court TV and spent several years as a legal correspondent for NBC's "Today" show. She joined "The View" in 1997 and on June 27, 2006, announced she would be leaving the show after being told that her contract wasn't going to be renewed.
Jones also hosted her own show on cable's truTV (formerly Court TV). She has authored two books: "You Have to Stand for Something, or You'll Fall for Anything" and "Shine."

Quiet and who cares
NEW YORK - The matrimony of singer-actress Beyonce Knowles and hip-hop mogul Jay-Z is official — the couple have filed marriage papers, a town clerk in a New York City suburb said on Tuesday.
The couple held a lavish private celebration in Manhattan on April 4, but have been mum about the details of their wedding. Guests reportedly included Gwyneth Paltrow and Beyonce’s former Destiny’s Child bandmates, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams.
“The license was sent back to our office on Friday,” said Donna Conkling, the town clerk of Scarsdale Village in suburban Westchester County. She would not say who officiated.

Lilo's looking rough

from ONTD:
Back in the Big Apple, Lindsay Lohan enjoyed a night on the town - checking out BFF Samantha Ronson’s performance at Hawaiian Tropic Zone on Saturday night (April 19).
The Mean Girls actress posed for pictures and offered up the “peace” sign before heading behind the DJ booth to chat it up with Ronson.
Meanwhile, Lohan recently became vocal about her displeasure with her father’s constant desire to speak to the media about her.
During a radio show appearance, Lindsay said: “I just wish he wouldn’t go and talk to the media. It’s not attractive to me, it really upsets me and I wish he would stop. I love my father. I just don’t know why he’s doing what he’s doing. It’s a weird situation, very odd.”
The 21-year-old redhead’s comments came after her 47-year-old father “expressed his displeasure with his daughter’s management team for not permitting her to accompany him on a missionary trip to India.”

The Weirdness goes on....
Click on the headline to see the video of Jason talking. from foxnews:
Is it a conspiracy or just bad luck?
The anti-Scientology video we told you about on Monday afternoon featuring actor Jason Beghe has been removed from YouTube. Sort of.
The original video, put up by videographer Mark Bunker, is gone. YouTube pulled it late on Thursday. In the video, which Bunker made, Beghe describes his 13-year membership in the sect and why he left.
Bunker thinks YouTube took down the video under pressure from Scientology. It’s possible, of course, but unlikely. The video is still up on YouTube in other forms, including here (warning: contains offensive language). It’s also easily found just by typing Beghe’s name into most search engines.
Bunker says YouTube cancelled his account because of previous copyright issues with other videos he’s posted. He says those issues have been cleared up and he should have had time to prove that before they removed the Beghe interview.
YouTube, which is owned by Google, is not the easiest place to get an answer from. Ricardo Reyes, the head of public relations, told me Thursday night, "There’s no conspiracy here." He would not say if Scientology had pressured the video posting site into taking down the Bunker/Beghe video. Reyes e-mailed the official YouTube stance to me later on: "We do not comment on individual videos."
Despite this little flap, Beghe’s video has taken off like a rocket. The Village Voice newspaper here in New York as well as several video outlets have picked up the story about his brave escape from the sect. Some have even taken our original stories without credit. C’est la vie in this case. It was just important that Beghe get his story out to the widest audience possible.
Beghe has more to say, and a longer video, some of which we’ll see here next week. The more he describes the Scientology experience, the scarier it sounds. As he told me the other day: "A Scientologist who’s ‘clear’ believes he’s no longer a Homosapien. He’s Homo-novis, a new race. They believe they are the only hope for this section of the galaxy, starting with planet Earth."
Yes, Tom Cruise and John Travolta evidently believe this, Beghe says.
And, yes, Beghe did confirm with me what he’s talked about on the videos: All Scientology sessions are taped. Every one of them, including those of Cruise, Travolta and all celebrities. Does Beghe care if his tapes ever get out?
"Hell, no," he told me. "They won’t do that anyway because then the whole thing comes out and everyone knows there are tapes. They can’t do anything with them."
Beghe also told me that one possible theory for why the careers of Scientologists tend to go south is that the famous actors, such as Jenna Elfman or Juliette Lewis, "get so involved in thinking only they can save the world" that the sect overwhelms them.
and from defamer.com:
Ex-scientologist Jason Beghe, an actor you probably don't remember from CSI and Numb3rs, posted a somewhat horrifying rant on YouTube yesterday in which he demonstrates just how crazy the religion can make someone, even after they've escaped its clutches. After spouting venom-laced theories involving "theta traps" and "reactive minds," Beghe tells us that Scientologists think they're "fucking doing something to save the planet." And in an interview with the Village Voice last week, he divulges yet more allegations about Tom Cruise's involvement, and has a warning for Will Smith: "[Cruise] was out for like ten years...Some are out but don't talk about it. Why? The church is scary. These are bad motherfuckers...Let Will Smith know that his shit was fucking recorded. And tell him to look them in the eye and see if he believes it when they deny it."
In his VV interview, Beghe says the three-minute YouTube video "barely scratches the surface" of a much longer session he recorded with Operation Clambake leader Andreas Heldal-Lund and the Anonymous group's "wise beard man," Mark Bunker. Though Beghe seems to be attempting to shoot down Scientology's cred by claiming the religion "stunts your evolution" and saying members aren't happy even after spending enormous amounts of money to reach level OT-VIII (beyond Clears), his maniacal laugh midway through the clip is eerily similar to Cruise's high-pitched giggles. And while a member of the Church, Beghe was declared "clear as a fucking bell." If the actor's aggressive ranting isn't enough to scare potential Scientologists like Smith out of joining the Knights of Hubbard, his current state of insanity certainly is.

Oh my!
Gold Swinger
Word from the set of the latest Bond movie, 'Quantum of Solace', is that the film is action-packed but the set even more so, as some members of the cast and crew have been whiling away the boring hours between shooting by indulging in orgies. Apart from buying hats, there's not much else to do in Panama, is there?
So...is she?
from msn.com:
We're just a week into the great Ashlee Simpson Womb Watch of 2008 and already her alleged bundle of joy has pretty much jumped the shark.
As the remodeled starlet plays it coy over whether or not she and Fall Out Boy fiancé Pete Wentz are procreating, rumors have begun bubbling that her string-pulling dad, Joe Simpson, may be attempting to parlay the stork speculation into a big payday.
"Joe is contacting all the weeklies and asking them to pony up $1 million to put Ashlee on the cover," a magazine insider tells the New York Post. "The deal would include photos of Ashlee -- taken by Joe, of course, so he can make more money -- an interview and photos of the baby when she has it."
And while there have apparently been some nibbles for the exclusive, the moolah probably wouldn't be enough to cover a single shopping spree at a swanky baby boutique.
A magazine editor tells the paper the snaps would bring in "$60,000 maybe, but definitely not a million ... Joe has an unrealistic expectation of what Ashlee can command."
The editor also points out that "the timing is a little suspicious," what with the release of Simpson's album and clothing line next week, and snipes, "There was little to no interest until now. Ashlee's lucky she got pregnant, frankly."
Brrr, that's cold.
Posh gets PWND!!!
LOS ANGELES — Following reports that high-end boutiques have pulled Victoria Beckham's denim line DVB Style, the British beauty and her fashion publicist made an emergency appearance at Kitson boutique in West Hollywood on Tuesday afternoon.
According to eyewitnesses, the former Spice Girl left notably shaken and teary after being told off by Kitson owner Fraser Ross.
"First of all, she came half an hour late, no call or anything. I'm a busy person — don't know who she thinks she is," Ross told Tarts. "I told her that she needed to grow up and realize that you can't just have a line and not support it. Other celebrities do trunk shows and meet customers — she and her fashion publicist Jason needed to be told why her line isn't selling."
Ross (who claims to have spent $100,000 investing in Posh's collection) said this was the first time in nine months she had "bothered" to meet with him and that numerous stockists in Europe also had dumped DVB.
"She (Beckham) told me that designing is what she still wants to be doing in 25 years, but unless she lifts her game, her time in this city will be short-lived," Ross added. "She lives 10 minutes from the store yet is happy to go off shopping at Barneys and all these other places but seems to think she's too good to support the people who support her."
Ouch. But this certainly isn't the first design dilemma in which the pop princess has been embroiled. Becks designed a line for jeans giants Rock and Republic, but after a reportedly bitter battle with the company in 2006 she left to launch her own rival line.
"Her reputation was damaged after all of that, and I was the one who helped her and found her the manufacturer," Ross claimed.
But even though Vic apparently was "very receptive to making changes" after the scolding, she still wouldn't totally succumb.
Apparently, Ross asked her to "show her support" by strutting out with a Kitson bag — but that didn't go down well with our Posh.

Mass Exodus from C of $ begun?
from fox news:
Television Star Exits Scientology
Ruggedly handsome actor Jason Beghe was best man at the wedding of "X-Files" star David Duchovny (his childhood pal) and actress Tea Leoni. In 1998, he starred as Demi Moore’s love interest in "G.I. Jane." He’s been featured in numerous TV dramas such as "Criminal Minds," "Numb3rs" and "CSI."
In 2005, Beghe appeared in promotional spots for the Church of Scientology. But now, Beghe has escaped the church after taking courses since 1994. He’s made a video that’s up on YouTube.
This is what he has to say: "Scientology is destructive and a rip-off."
He also says: "It’s very, very dangerous for your spiritual, psychological, mental, emotional health and evolution. I think it stunts your evolution. If Scientology is real, then something’s f---ed up."
You can see from the video that Beghe does not mince words. But his refreshing candor about the religion he joined in 1994 should shake the Celebrity Center to its core.
"It ain’t deliverin’ what it’s promised. It sure has not."
The video is billed as a three-minute teaser to a longer interview with Beghe that’s on its way. But the short video packs a powerful punch. Beghe still uses a lot of Scientology lingo like "OT" and "clear." Still, it’s quite easy to understand the point he’s making. After 14 years and a tremendous amount of money, he’s seeing Scientology in a different light.
Beghe has completed so many courses that he’s considered a top Scientologist, or "OT 5" — similar to Tom Cruise, John Travolta and Kirstie Alley. But Beghe reveals: "The further up the bridge, the worse you get."
He adds: "I don’t have an agenda. I’m just trying to help. I have the luxury of having gotten into Scientology and after having been in it, been out. And that’s a perspective that people who are still in and not out do not have."

More Heather Mills? Hell to the NO!

Never mind the boos: Heather Mills is just out to have a good time.
After the Miss USA audience booed the judge's introduction Friday night in Las Vegas, the former Mrs. Paul McCartney let loose at a pageant afterparty at hot spot Prive.
Mills hit the dancefloor for a couple of hours and showed off some of her Dancing with the Stars moves shortly after midnight (and after a long conversation with Penthouse exec Marc Bell). At one point, Mills – who settled her $50 million divorce deal last month – grooved to the Donna Summer classic "She Works Hard for the Money."
At 2 a.m., Mills, 40, finally left the club and retreated to her suite at Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino.
The controversial Brit can rest assured she ended her night in Vegas with at least one fan in the States. Earlier, Miss USA pageant co-owner Donald Trump told PEOPLE: "I think America wants more Heather Mills."
*Sit down and STFU, Donald. Nobody cares what you think*
ROFL!!!
Bret Michaels has been added to a lawsuit filed by the owner of the $9M Rock of Love mansion, who is claiming Michaels and Mindless Entertainment Inc. broke their contract.
The VH1 reality show was shot in the mansion last winter and owner Ray Sahranavard says that during that time $380,000 worth of damage was done to his home which is located in Encino, CA.
Sahranavard is also claiming that Mindless Entertainment told him that they purchased an additional $3M in liability insurance in case anything was damaged. The company is refuting those claims.
The alleged damage includes holes in the walls and ceilings, all doors were removed, lawn and outdoor plants had died, and almost the entire inside of the house had been repainted.
Producers tried to talk their way out any responsibility for damages claiming that Bret was not monitored 24/7 and that they have no control of what happened during the times he wasn’t. So basically, they blamed him, leading him to be added to the lawsuit.
The home owner is claiming fraud, negligence and negligent misrepresentation. He is also accusing Michaels of intentional destruction of property.
Rose McGowan to play Barbarella!
Last August, it was all but assured that “Grindhouse” babe Rose McGowan was set to star as the title character, an ultra-hot space vixen, in Robert Rodriguez’s remake of “Barbarella.”
Or so we thought.
Because soon came the budget disputes. And the posturing. And the claims that Universal didn’t want McGowan at all, preferring instead a bigger name actress like Jessica Alba or Nicole Kidman.
Turns out, we got it right the first time, McGowan insisted, telling MTV News that she was still very much signed on to play the lead in the upcoming film.
“[The news that I was out] was really irritating because I know all the people over there and obviously it wasn’t true. It was very malicious and there was no proof,” McGowan said of the rumors. “Oftentimes these things have basis in truth but this didn’t. I have contracts to prove it.”
Not just the contracts, either, but sets and costumes, and a whole “lot of pre-production work,” McGowan revealed, hinting that the flick is actually quite a bit further along than previously speculated.
“Half of the sets have been built. The costumes are done,” the actress confessed, adding with a laugh that she’s “even got my spaceships. I’ve got part of a spaceship built for me!”
At the moment, in fact, the only impediment to filming isn’t the actress in the lead – but all those other actresses everywhere else.
“[‘Barbarella’] wouldn’t be able to be finished before June which is when the next strike might happen,” McGowan said of delays in the face of a possible SAG strike. “It’s a longer shoot.”
The original movie followed Jane Fonda as she roamed the galaxy fighting evil and looking really, really sexy.
McGowan, for one, can’t wait to step into those knee-high boots, calling herself a big “fan of the original.”
Jamie Lynn keeps proving she's an idiot

This week’s National Enquirer reports that Jamie Lynn’s fiance, Casey Aldridge, 18, was drinking heavily at a party and that pregnant Jamie Lynn stepped in to try and stop a fight between two of his friends. Fists were flying and Jamie Lynn got elbowed hard in the mouth. She was crying and screaming, and the way Casey responded was to try and get her to shut up:
According to a new report from The National Enquirer, Jamie Lynn was injured when she attempted to break up a fight between two of Casey’s friends:
“Jamie Lynn decided she could break it up, but got elbowed hard in the mouth by one of the boy,” says an eyewitness. “She went crazy, screaming at everyone….crying, screaming, and covering her mouth.”
“Casey was so drunk, he just kept trying to hush her up.”

LMAO!!!!
As Paris Hilton continues to traipse the world following her boyfriend Benji Madden on his Good Charlotte tour, casting directors in New York struggle to find a person willing to become the socialite’s best friend.
The makers of Paris’s new reality show, in which she holds auditions to find a new BFF (best friend forever), were hoping for a huge turn-out of potential applicants for casting calls.However, they didn’t get the number of people they had hoped for. One source tells OK!: “There were less than 40 people there."
Despite the low number in attendance, there was lots of variety. One person who auditioned reveals: "There were girls wearing matching pastel prom dresses with Swarovski crystal pendants and updos, ghetto-fabulous girls and two goth-inspired girls with bleach blonde hair, pale makeup, eyelash extensions and leather clothing.”
The motives of some hopefuls have been put into question though, as one girl was overheard saying that she “totally couldn't live in the house with Paris," because "she would be so annoying!"
Sounds like a perfect match to us.

In-Fucking-credible
Babyshambles drummer Adam Ficek told BBC 6 Music, “I feel gutted for him. Obviously he's going to find it really difficult in there but all I can say is that the band is going to stick with him as always.” Pete’s time in jail also means he will miss his solo April performance at the Royal Albert Hall, his biggest solo show to date. However, in a statement, the singer’s record label promised the show would be rescheduled and all tickets will be valid for the new date. “Peter was very much looking forward to the show and would like to offer his sincerest apologies to all his fans and to all those concerned.” Provided he behaves himself inside, legal experts expect Pete to serve a month of his sentence meaning he’ll s
Johnny Depp off the market!!!
from gossip blvd and Vanessa looks like she sucked a lemon in this pic:
Actor Johnny Depp is set to marry longtime love Vanessa Paradis on June 14. The pair who have been together for 10 years and have two children, eight-year-old Lily-Rose and six-year-old Jack have always insisted they don’t feel the need to make their relationship official, but French singer Vanessa is now keen to walk down the aisle.
A source close to the couple said: “Vanessa recently told Johnny that she would love to have a wedding. Johnny loves Vanessa very much, and he said if that’s what would make her happy, then he’d marry her.”
The summer wedding will be a low-key family affair. The couple’s children “are really excited about it,” the insider tells Life and Style magazine. “Actually the whole family is excited.
“They wanted to make it convenient for Johnny’s family in Florida,” so the wedding will likely take place in Georgia’s Tybee Island, according to the source. “They’re going to send out invitations in a few weeks.”

And Whatever....
For the second time, the divorce between Sean Penn and Robin Wright have been dismissed at the request of the couple.
Reports said that Sean filed for divorce on December 7, after Robin found him in bed with two Russian girls while they were on vacation together (although staying in separate suites). That was dismissed 11 days later. Then, Robin filed again on December 21.
Since then, Sean has been seen out and about, including going to Elton John's Oscar party with Petra Nemcova.
On Tuesday, the two went to an Eddie Vetter concert, where Sean dedicated a song on stage to Robin for her birthday.
I'm guessing that's not the only romantic gesture he has made to get himself out of the dog house. He better keep it up if he doesn't want to see round three of a divorce.
Gross....Ew.....

THIS JUST IN FROM ASHLEE SIMPSON
"We know there has been a lot of speculation recently about Pete and I and we wanted our fans to be the first to know, because you guys are the best. Yes, we are thrilled to share that we are happily engaged. Thank you for all of your support and well wishes - it means the world to us. We consider this to be a very private matter, and we wanted to be the first to tell you and to hear it straight from us."

Valkyrie to never be seen?
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Tom Cruise's World War II thriller "Valkyrie" has pushed back its release date to 2009, the second postponement for a production that has endured its share of headaches.
The MGM release has been moved from October 3 to February 13, coinciding with the U.S. Presidents Day holiday weekend. Last December, it was pulled from its original July 4 holiday weekend berth where it would have competed with the Angelina Jolie thriller "Wanted."
"When an opening became available for President's Day Weekend, we seized the opportunity," said MGM distribution president Clark Woods, referring to Universal's recent decision to pull "The Wolf Man" out of that slot and into April 3.
"Valkyrie" is the true story of a German officer, played by Cruise, who tried to assassinate Hitler. The German government initially banned the production from shooting on location at the Berlin site where the plot was hatched and the conspirators executed. It later changed its mind after months of national debate that focused in part on Cruise's Scientology beliefs.
Some of the footage shot at the site was later damaged during processing, requiring re-shoots. Last August, 10 extras were injured when they fell off the back of a truck during shooting in Berlin.
The movie is being produced by MGM's United Artists banner, which Cruise runs with business partner Paula Wagner. UA's debut release under the new regime, the Cruise vehicle "Lions for Lambs," bombed at the box office last November.

Britney to Tour?

Brit busted a load of cash on lawyer fees and wigs over the past year and reports say she wants to hit the road and start working again. Operation Infinite Chances reportedly involves a $100 million payday for the recovering poptart for a world tour, according to Showbizspy.
Brit Brit wants to leave on a jet plane and hightail it out of La La Land and away from her troubled past. Sources say Britney is ready to work her way back to the top and is even finally trying to get her post-baby mama body back in shape.
Charlton Heston Dead at 84

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Charlton Heston, who won the 1959 best actor Oscar as the chariot-racing "Ben-Hur" and portrayed Moses, Michelangelo, El Cid and other heroic figures in movie epics of the '50s and '60s, has died. He was 84.
The actor died Saturday night at his home in Beverly Hills with his wife Lydia at his side, family spokesman Bill Powers said.
Powers declined to comment on the cause of death or provide further details."Charlton Heston was seen by the world as larger than life. He was known for his chiseled jaw, broad shoulders and resonating voice, and, of course, for the roles he played," Heston's family said in a statement. "No one could ask for a fuller life than his. No man could have given more to his family, to his profession, and to his country."
Heston revealed in 2002 that he had symptoms consistent with Alzheimer's disease, saying, "I must reconcile courage and surrender in equal measure."
With his large, muscular build, well-boned face and sonorous voice, Heston proved the ideal star during the period when Hollywood was filling movie screens with panoramas depicting the religious and historical past. "I have a face that belongs in another century," he often remarked.
*I loved his movies*

WTF!!!
Tom Cruise and Another Woman—Outside a Studio, 'The Lot,' in Hollywood
Brandy: “We had a few frames here of Tom Cruise in a semi-intimate-looking moment with a woman who is not his wife. These are old-school paparazzi shots where they didn’t see the photographer and there isn’t a mob of paparazzi around them. We don’t know who the woman is. I don't think she is an executive of a studio. The bushes add to it looking like the scene is meant to be hidden She’s being too physical with him. At the same time, Tom is talking on the phone, so he wasn’t really too focused on her. The first story the viewer gets is that he might be cheating on Katie Holmes, and then people think about it for a second, and think, also, maybe he isn’t gay.” Regis: “His image now is that he is in a perfect relationship, a fairy tale, so is he flirting? Is his relationship with Katie as perfect as what they try to portray in the press? What is really going on? Right now, we know that they are living inside the Scientology Center. They sleep and eat there, and educate their child there. They have no more house. Which is strange, yes?”

Madonna news:
MADONNA has dramatically SCRAPPED her two-year bid to adopt a Malawian girl.
Instead she will support the orphan financially from Britain.
The 49-year-old singer told aides she has been left “exhausted” by a mountain of red tape.
Her adoption of Malawian son David Banda, two, was finalised this month. Pals were sure she would be bringing home Mercy, also two, as a sister for him.
But Madonna — who has two other children and is wed to Brit film director GUY RITCHIE — feared another TWO YEARS of legal wrangling.
A family friend said: “Madonna wanted to adopt a boy and a girl.
“But Mercy’s relatives objected and she had a complete turnaround.
“Everyone was stunned. Normally nothing will stop her.
“She now believes David will be the last child she adopts. Instead she will support orphans through her charity.”
*except that her charity still isn't legit*

From MSNBC.com
Nicole Richie has her hands full now that her partner and baby’s pop, Joel Madden, is off globe-trotting with his band, Good Charlotte, and she’s not happy about it, reports Star magazine.
“Nicole begged Joel to let her tag along, but he refused to put the baby through that much traveling,” a friend shared. “He thinks a rock tour is no place for a newborn and has put his foot down.”
But it’s not that sound reason that has Nicole in a tizzy. Instead it’s the fact that her frenemy Paris Hilton, who’s dating Joel’s brother and bandmate Benji, is hanging out with the guys on tour. “Nicole is livid!” another insider revealed to Star. “The thought of Paris on the road influencing Joel makes her skin crawl. Nicole doesn’t trust Paris as far as she can throw her.”
The Heat Ledger Drama goes on!
Recent allegations of a love child by Heath Ledger may further divide the late actor's multimillion dollar estate, the Daily Telegraph reported.
Ledger allegedly got a then 25-year-old woman pregnant during a secret relationship they had when he was 17.
The alleged mother reportedly discovered she was pregnant after they parted ways. She was allegedly living with another man at the time, the Telegraph reported.
His uncle, Hadyn Ledger, told the Telegraph: "There is a real possibility that Heath was the father."
If he is confirmed as the father, Matilda Rose, Ledger's 2-year-old daughter with Hollywood actress Michelle Williams, may wind up having to share his estate with his other child.
A row over the handling of Ledger's 2003 will, which did not include Matilda Rose because it was written before she was born, has exposed a rift between his father and uncles.

JUST IN!!!!
Even though Brad Pitt famously once said that he would get married again when everyone in the United States could also do so, the rumor mill has gone into overdrive this evening with reports that the Fight Club star has said "I do" to gal pal, and mother of his children, Angelina Jolie in a ceremony in New Orleans.
When reached for comment on the rumors, Brad's rep would only say to OK! that she had "no idea" if they were true or not.
If Brangelina, who are expecting at least one more child this summer to add to their already sizeable brood, did indeed tie the knot, it would be the second go-around with wedded bliss for Brad, whose marriage to Jennifer Aniston notoriously dissolved right around the same time he met Angelina.
This would be the third trip down the aisle for the Oscar-winning actress, who had previously been wed to actors Johnny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton, which means this would mark the first time that Angelina married someone without three names.
Stay tuned to OK! as this story develops.
