Conan O’Brien Is Leaving

Friday, January 15th, 2010

A source with The Daily Beast says that the Conan O’Brien-Jay Leno saga is almost over.

While reports that said that Conan O’Brien would be leaving The Tonight Show as of January 22nd are said to be false, Conan will be leaving. The story reports that NBC is freeing Conan O’Brien of his contract and paying him out, so that he will be free to work on another network.

If Conan O’Brien can’t find a network to air him right away, New York Daily News reports that job offers from other sources have been coming in. Apparently Conan has been offered a position in the adult film industry and at Mrs. Fields, the cookie company.

Whoever picks up Conan O’Brien will be a lucky network as his fans have really rallied around him during this. Celebrities supporting Conan too. Rosie O’Donnell made a statement telling Leno to let Conan keep his job.

Jimmy Kimmel roasted Jay Leno on The Jay Leno Show last night for the 10 at 10 segment. Via satellite Jimmy Kimmel made a crack at him with almost every answer he gave.

Watch the hilarious answers by Jimmy Kimmel here:

Celebrity Holiday Plans

Friday, December 25th, 2009

neil-patrick-harris-christmasNow that the presents are unwrapped and the turkey is in the oven, relax before the family gets there for dinner with some holiday celebrity gossip. Have you ever wondered what the celebrities do to celebrate?

Neil Patrick Harris showed off his Christmas tree on Twitter this week. It’s a cute, real tree. It’s nice to see that not all celebrities have big, gorgeous fake trees that were professionally done.

Singer Mariah Carey is spending her holidays with her husband Nick Cannon in Aspen. To share the joy they threw a party for 35 under privileged children. The party had magicians, jugglers, ice skating and of course Santa.

Elton John and David Furnish will be spending the holidays traveling to see all of their 10 godchildren. The visits have already started with them seeing Damien Hurley (Elizabeth Hurley’s son) and Brooklyn Beckham. What do you think Elton John gives as a present?

Oprah Ending in 2011

Friday, November 20th, 2009

No one can believe the news, but it is true. The Oprah Winfrey Show will be ending its 25 year run in 2011.

They announced that Oprah’s last episode will be September 9th, 2011. Oprah will be explaining her decision on today’s show live.

Don’t fret though Oprah fans. Oprah Winfrey has her own cable channel coming and it’s a good bet that she will be on there. So Oprah won’t really be leaving, just moving to something new on OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network.

Oprah’s friend Gayle King told People Magazine, “I think that Oprah always makes the best decision for herself. I really do. And I have a feeling she will come up with some things to do. She has a very full life … We don’t need to worry about her filling her time, I promise you that! Life is good for her.”

At 55, Oprah Winfrey is the reigning Queen of Television. She will still be around. And hey, that’s still almost two years away.

Johnny Depp Named People Magazine’s 2009 Sexiest Man Alive

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009
johnny depp sexiest man alive people.jpg

The people have spoken, People Magazine that is, and named Johnny Depp 2009’s Sexiest Man Alive.

Johnny Depp has been making women swoon with those dark eyes and mysterious soul since 21 Jump Street. With Pirates Of The Caribbean and this year’s Public Enemies showing off his bad side it’s no surprise he topped the list. He’s joining a very elite list of men who have been named Sexiest Man Alive more than once. Brad Pitt and George Clooney are the only other celebrities to make the cover twice.

Johnny Depp will star in next year’s new version of Alice In Wonderland as the Mad Hatter. That probably won’t show off his sexy side, but that is why we love him. He’s not just a pretty face.

Other hotties who made the list of 2009’s Sexiest Men Alive are Ryan Reynolds, Jake Gyllenhaal, Bradley Cooper, Robert Downey Jr., David Beckham, the boys from Glee, Nick Cannon, Adam Lambert, John Cho, Chris Daughtry, Jerry O’Connell, John Legend, and of course Robert Pattinson.

Jennifer Lopez Stops Release of Honeymoon Tapes

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

Jennifer Lopez small.JPGWe told you earlier this week that Jennifer Lopez was suing her ex-husband Ojani Noa for producing a movie about their short marriage.

Ojani Noa wanted to use home footage of the newlyweds engaging in some ‘marital bliss.’ To no one’s surprise, but his, Jennifer Lopez has put a halt to the whole thing. She’s been given a temporary restraining order that stops him from releasing or selling the tapes.

Ojani Noa showed up in court to defend his actions saying there is nothing sexual and he uses them to set up the characters. Come on Ojani let’s be real. You are using them to get tons of publicity. The judge agreed that he was trying to make money off of his marriage to JLo.

Ojani Noa went on to tell The Daily News that Jennifer Lopez is “destroying my life.” He goes on to say, ”This is another proof of her power and money trying to stop me from moving on with my life.”

If you want to move on, Jennifer Lopez probably wouldn’t have a problem with it. This is the second time she has had to take him to court. In 2007, he wanted to write a book about their marriage.

How Nicolas Cage Got So Far In Debt

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

We all think of what we would do with all of our money if we made as much as say Nicolas Cage.

Nicolas Cage’s movies made a total of $3.9 billion at the box office, yet he still owes $6 million in back taxes.

New York magazine did a little digging into Nicolas Cage’s past to find out just how he fell so far in debt. The things they revealed are interesting indeed. Maybe Nicolas, you didn’t need a pet shark. But lots of people have fish and aren’t in debt you say. Well then maybe he could have stopped at one island, instead of buying 2. His living accommodations include 3 castles and house that came with a 1955 Jaguar and an “array of shrunken heads.”

He owned a Lamborghini, which he bought for almost $500,000 and $1.6 million worth of comic books.

But the most ridiculous thing on the list is spending $276,000 on a dinosaur skull. Ok it’s cool to own a dinosaur, but maybe you could have lived without it.

Nicolas Cage is quoted in the story as saying, “I find ways of spending money that mystify everybody around me.” You can say that again!

Lil Wayne Going To Jail

Saturday, October 24th, 2009

Lil Wayne pleaded guilty to attempted possession of a weapon in the second degree this morning in a New York courtroom and is looking to face up to a year in jail.

Lil Wayne pleaded not guilty at first, but changed his mind when they found out DNA evidence would be used. He saved himself a maximum of about three and a half years by changing his plea.

These charges go all the way back to July 2007 when police found a handgun stashed in Lil Wayne’s tour bus in a Louis Vuitton bag. Hiding his weapons in style we see?

Lil Wayne still has drug and weapons charges pending in Arizona.

Don’t these rappers ever learn? Lil Wayne has had 2 babies in the past year and his girlfriend is pregnant now. How is he going to care for all of his kids from a cell?

Want To Own Whitney Houston’s House?

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

whitney houston house for sale.jpgRumour has it that Whitney Houston has put her house up for sale.

For $2.5 million, you can own the house of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown. That actually isn’t a bad price since the house has 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms and sits on 5 acres in New Jersey (and was owned by one of the biggest celebrity divas alive right now which must be worth something).

This house is practically a piece of history since it lived with Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown throughout the toughest times in Whitney’s life as she battled drug addiction and her husband. That house knows some serious secrets.

As you can see from the pictures, the house is completely one of a kind with a circular theme throughout. It needs a little updating with all of the peachy tones, but it’s so open and spacious looking with lots of natural light. It’s a good thing it’s a gated property because with all glass walls it’s shocking Whitney Houston could ever get some privacy.

Amy Winehouse’s Dad Thinks Her Boobs Are Fantastic

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

Amy Winehouse small.jpgAmy Winehouse’s father Mitch joins celebrity dads like Joe Simpson and Michael Lohan who just don’t know when to shut up.

Mitch was on British tv show This Morning and told the whole world that his daughter Amy Winehouse is “Fantastic, fantastic. Her boobs are great as well.” What? You are her father! Mitch back stepped saying that he probably shouldn’t have said that. You think?

He also said that he didn’t know how much Amy Winehouse’s breast implants cost her revealing, “I didn’t have to pay for it – that’s all I know. Whenever I see her, she says, ‘Dad can you give me a couple of hundred.’ [But] I didn’t have to pay for the boobs. I don’t know.”

Mitch said that the singer is a completely different person now and they are on a “different planet.” Recent pictures of singer Amy Winehouse do show that she does look a lot better now. But her dad still shouldn’t be commenting out her new rack.

R.I.P. Kayne West Rumours Are Not True

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

Kanye West has had a rough go of it in the past few months, but now it’s even tougher since reports say he’s dead.

RIP Kanye West became a trending topic on Twitter after someone heard a rumour that the rapper died in a car crash.

West’s girlfriend model Amber Rose didn’t take to the hoax to kindly writing on her own Twitter:

This ‘RIP KanyeWest’ topic is not funny and its NOT TRUE! He has people like myself and his family that love him very much.

Its in extreme poor taste to have that as a trendy topic. It’s totally disrespectful to make up a story like this we’re all human.”

And we all make mistakes and to say someone died cuz of a mistake is ridiculous. You wouldn’t want someone to say that about you.

He’s not the first person to have rumours of his death on Twitter. Poor Jeff Goldblum has been killed off a few times on Twitter. Actor/director Zach Braff posted a video thanking everyone for scaring his mother with the crazy rumours that he died. Since news usually hits Twitter before other sites though it’s sometimes hard not to believe.

Meryl Streep’s Daughter To Wed

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Meryl Streep’s daughter Mamie Gummer announced that she is engaged to fellow actor Ben Walker.

The pair met on Broadway while they were performing together in Dangerous Liaisons in 2008 and have been dating ever since.

Walker apparently had the old-fashioned ring he gave Mamie specially made and then he got down on one knee. Both families are obviously delighted.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Ben should watch out though. We’ve seen The Devil Wears Prada. Meryl can be pretty scary when she needs to be.
