Christina Aguilera was spotted carrying her son Max back to her hotel after a night out in New York City on Tuesday. The 27-year old singer recently announced plans to launch another addition to her perfume line later this year. The buxom blonde has chosen to take time off from her music career since she gave birth to her son in January and has instead spent her great amount of free time as a new mother working on her third scent. Her previous two scents have bother garnered international success with the new scent due to hit the stores this fall.
We were very excited by your and Chris Brown’s recent visit to a
Miami-area KFC restaurant.
Clearly, like Kentucky Fried Chicken and our founder Colonel Sanders, you
two know how to kick it up a few degrees. And, Rihanna, that’s a secret
recipe worth sharing with the world.
We could feel the heat – literally – in our restaurant that night …
so much so that we’d like to invite you and Chris back to any KFC for a
free meal including the Colonel’s Hot Wings. Whether lunch or dinner, home
or on the road, our doors are always open to you. Think of it as a personal
way to send an SOS whenever you crave a little Original Recipe.
Like you, KFC is dedicated to supporting charity causes. If you and Chris
are again photographed making KFC a “hot” date-night spot, we’ll make
a donation to your charity, BELIEVE, which helps underprivileged children.
Hearing about your fondness for KFC was music to our ears. Please don’t
stop making KFC your favorite mealtime choice.
Good luck to you and we hope to see you again soon with or without an
Umbrella.
They may have been seen sharing a sweet kiss and even more tender moments at a KFC but that doesn’t mean they have to stop playing coy with us. Rihanna was spotted rocking a yellow leather jacket with a ruffled collar as she checks out of her midtown hotel in New York City on Monday. Just a few minutes later, Chris Brown was seen leaving the same hotel. They sure try their best not to be photographed together. But if the KFC pictures are anything to go by, obviously, they don’t try hard enough. They should just give it up already. Admit to it now!
Beyoncé Knowles is pregnant, friends have confirmed.
The ‘Crazy In Love’ singer – who married rapper Jay-Z in a secret ceremony last month – has reportedly been indulging in all her favourite calorific goodies since discovering she is expecting her first child.
A pal told the press: “She has gained a lot of pregnancy weight. When she gains weight, she normally does the Def Jam detox, but not now.”
Beyoncé further fuelled speculation she is pregnant after she was spotted in New York this week sporting what appeared to be a baby bump. A source close to the couple said: “I’ve heard from at least two people that Beyoncé is pregnant.”
Following the couple’s April wedding ceremony, actress Vivica A. Fox revealed it wouldn’t be long before they started a family, saying: “I wish them many, many years of happiness and some babies.
I think she will be really pretty pregnant, just like Jennifer Lopez and Halle Berry.”
It was claimed the couple ‘rushed’ forward their nuptials as Beyoncé was determined to tie the knot before her baby bump started to show.
Last year, Beyoncé insisted she wouldn’t pressurise 38-year-old Jay-Z into having children, saying: “You can’t rush a man into anything whether it’s a relationship, marriage or having children. When he’s ready he’ll let you know.”
A very lovey-dovey couple in Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer were spotted enjoying an afternoon of poolside passion at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Miami, Florida on Saturday. The hot new couple took a swim in the pool after a rigorous gym workout session together. The 39-year old actress and the 30-year old singer were seen hugging, kissing, cuddling and the whole shebang. It looks like it’s getting serious! That whole bit of John seen with a different girl in New York must just be a rumor. The singer reportedly even changed around his schedule so that he can perform a 3-song set at the wrap party for Jennifer’s movie ‘Marley & Me’.
Newlyweds Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon made their first public appearance together as a couple at Time’s ‘100 Most Influential People in the World’ gala at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City on Thursday. Mariah performed at the event. The couple was asked how it feels to be married to which Nick replied with “It feels amazing. My cheeks hurt from smiling so hard. I’ve been smiling for days.” Mariah adds “It’s comforting–and something I’ve never felt before. Which is really being in love and happy with someone who really understands me and isn’t trying to do anything but make me happy. It’s wonderful.”

Taylor Swift attended the 5th Annual Candies Foundation ‘Event to Prevent’ Benefit which was held at Cipriani in New York City on Wednesday. The ‘Event to Prevent’ is a benefit to raise awareness of the consequences of teen pregnancy. Calling Jamie Lynn Spears! Anyway, Taylor’s self-title debut album has been certified triple platinum for retail shipments and digital sales of 3 million units. The 18-year old country singer and songwriter is also set to go on tour with Rascal Flatts on their ‘Still Feels Good’ tour which is ranked as the top country concert draw during the first quarter of the year.
It was just last week when it was reported that John Mayer and Jennifer Anniston have sparked up a romance but it may very well be over before it ever really began. Jennifer might have just been another notch on John’s belt as according to reports, the singer was spotted out last Friday night in New York City with Maroon 5 front man Adam Levine where John was all over some blonde who was not Jen. John went from loved up with Jen in Miami to club-trolling horn dog in New York very quickly. Poor Jennifer, she’s been so unlucky in love.
Though her wedding may have surprised many, it turns out that the Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon wedding was planned in advance. The couple and their 24 guests arrived via 2 private jets in the Bahamas on April 29. Life & Style reports that a witness said that Mariah’s assistant was on the island on April 27 making arrangements. The next day, a commercial jet came in carrying 2 tanks of live Maine lobsters. Mariah’s security and staff members also arrived a few days before the wedding to get the home ready in time. An insider adds “Whenever Mariah travels, they set up for her beforehand. And it’s no joke. If anything she needs or wants is missing, she’ll be upset.” Flowers were also flown in on a private jet. The wedding cake was flown in along with Mariah.
Think well and hard about the next charity you choose to support as there are some that are out there to just rip you off. Back in 2006, Sting held a charity concert in order to save the world’s rainforests. The celebrity-packed event raised millions but not everything went well. According to charity watchdogs and tax records reviews, it was uncovered that even though millions were made, less than half of the money went to forest-saving charities. Almost all charity events give about 75% or more from the money raised. Sting’s Rainforest Foundation in New York is now rated as one of the worst charities around.
Brad and Angelina, JLo and Marc Anthony and other celebrity parents have made it a fad to have their newborn babies’ faces on the covers of magazines. But unlike his predecessors, don’t expect Usher to do the same. The singer says that he won’t be selling snaps of his son for any amount of money. Usher told the New York Post that “I am livid that people talk about my child” and that he won’t sell his son out. However, Usher has already posed with his kid for a Father’s Day cover for Essence. But just as he said, he’s not doing it for the money as he posed to the cover for free.
Naomi Campbell has been spotted in a New York restaurant flouting the smoking ban. The scary model lit up despite it being illegal to smoke in public places in the Big Apple
I reckon the mobile phone she was chatting on might have stopped bystanders stepping in. She does have a tendency to chuck them at people.
I’ve heard Naomi makes a habit of defiant smoking.
One London restaurant lets her smoke inside to avoid her wrath. A staff member said: “We don’t want to face her tantrums.”
After Latina magazine reported it, the New York Post confirmed that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are indeed married. The curvaceous diva reportedly married the small-screen actor at the home she just bought in Eleuthera in the Bahamas. A source close to the singer said “They have been smitten with each other for days, weeks. And she’s always had a crush on him.” That’s pretty much covers their whole relationship. Unfortunately, the paper also reports that there was no pre-nuptial agreement. A worried source was even quoted saying that “There was no pre-nup – there wasn’t time.” I smell something bad brewing.
The rapper - who wed Beyonce Knowles last month - doesn’t feel the need to wear jewellery as he is content with the ‘ring’ tattooed on his wedding finger.
A source is quoted as saying: “He doesn’t need more bling, this is a very personal thing for him and he won’t wear anything other than a tattoo in public.”
Last week, the superstar couple officially confirmed their marriage.The pair filed their signed marriage license on April 18 in Scarsdale, New York.
Beyonce and Jay-Z applied for the license - which lists the wedding date as April 4 2008 - on April 1, three days before the ceremony. Scarsdale Town Clerk Donna Conkling said: “They were very low-key and weren’t dressed up. They did not have a large entourage.”
The couple took the license home that day, and then signed it and mailed it in after the ceremony.
Guests at the New York ceremony included Gwyneth Paltrow and husband Chris Martin and Beyonce’s former Destiny’s Child bandmates Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland.
While many may still think that it’s just a rumor, In Touch has photo proof that John Mayer is crazy about Jennifer Aniston. The musician reportedly flew to Miami on April 23 and checked into the Four Seasons – where he spent little to no time at all. The 30-year old singer spent most of his time in the $3,000 per night presidential suite at the Mandarin Oriental where the actress has been staying. The pair was inseparable over the long weekend, cuddling poolside and sharing meals together. They were even spotted having dinner together at Miami’s Café Sambal on Saturday.
In celebration of the release of Madonna’s upcoming album HARD CANDY, Control Room, MSN and Verizon Wireless will present the one and only Madonna live in New York’s famed Roseland Ballroom on Wednesday, April 30th. The show will be available live on MSN Music In Concert at music.msn.com/inconcert and will also be available for viewing post-show.
Now fans can Madonna-fy their online world with promo banners, Myspace codes, and desktop backgrounds:
Mya is going to have to wait a little bit longer before making her Broadway debut. The singer was set to take on the role of Velma in the hit production of ‘Chicago’ but then she went off and broke her foot. Mya was set to make her debut on May 12th. The show’s producer Barry Weissley said in a statement that “In the theatre industry, we are sometimes forced to deal with circumstances beyond our control. But speaking for the entire Chicago creative team, we all wish her a speedy recovery, and look forward to experiencing her portrayal of Velma Kelly as soon as possible.” Get well soon Mya!
After the endless amount of media that she’s been getting, it seems that Disney is putting its foot down on Miley Cyrus. Reports are saying that we won’t be seeing much of the tween star for a little while after her Vanity Fair scandal, at least until her corporate parents decide that it’s safe to let her back on the streets. The New York Post cited a high-ranking Disney employee who claims that “You won’t be seeing her for a while. The company is keeping her away from events … They’re trying to keep her contained.” I doubt that’s going to last long.
Blondie front woman Deborah Harry was as hot as a tranny mess at the big Squeezebox celebration in New York City this past Friday night. The singer was photographed swapping spit with Mistress Formika and even cozied up to British star penetrator Jamie Burke. All the old (and I do mean old) Squeezebox regulars were present at the Marc Jacobs-sponsored event at the Blender theater to celebrate the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of the new documentary about the seminal 90s fag-punk party. Does Debbie Harry count as someone from that era? Compared to the 90s, she’s pretty much from the Jurassic.
Madonna believes Tom Cruise gets a “raw deal” for believing in Scientology.
The pop superstar - who is a follower of controversial religion Kabbalah, a mystical off-shoot of Judaism - insists the actor should be allowed to practice his faith without being ridiculed.
She told New York magazine: “I don’t care if people worship turtles or frogs! All I care about is whether they are good people - and Tom is a good person. He gets a raw deal, just like the orphans in Malawi get a raw deal. I think a lot of marginalised people get a raw deal.”
Madonna - who adopted Malawian David Banda in 2006 amid claims she had received special treatment from authorities because of her fame - also insists people are too wary of individuals who perform good deeds.
The 49-year-old singer, who was raised a Catholic, said: “I think people are just strangely suspicious of those who want to do something good. Yes, there are children in the US and UK who need to be given a home, but no ones going to die in an orphanage in America.”
Scientology founder American sci-fi writer L. Ron Hubbard, claimed that extra terrestrial beings were sent to planet Earth by intergalactic ruler Xenu, who then blew up the aliens with hydrogen bombs in a volcano.
Fergie’s new song ‘Labels or Love’ which is featured on the new ‘Sex and the City’ movie has just been released. It is one very hot track. The song will be included in the film as the theme song and will be featured in the original motion picture soundtrack. Fergie also commented on the project saying “I grew up watching ‘Sex and the City’ and I know a lot of my girlfriends did as well. We felt like these characters were our friends, so to be a part of this project has been amazing.” What she really wants to do though is to make a music video for the song saying “I would die to do a video with the girls.”
Convicted female rapper Foxy Brown has been freed at last and it looks like she’s been saved. Just two days after she was released from Rikers Island, a demure Foxy was spotted decked out in a prim and proper dress to visit a New York City church on Sunday. If she’s asking for forgiveness for her sins, shouldn’t she be asking that to the people she assaulted? She’s God-fearing when people are around but not when there are people to hurt. Nice. Does someone smell a staged photo op? Considering all her creatively stupid ploys to get out of jail early, I wouldn’t put it past her.
Tyra Banks celebrated the 500th episode of her talk show on Monday with Clay Aiken who was pretty generous by giving Tyra’s audience free tickets to see ‘Spamalot’ in New York City. The American Idol alum has been performing on the Broadway show since January 18 and is scheduled to continue with his role through May 4. When talking about the show, Clay said that her couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful group of people to work with. But if you miss seeing Clay sing pop hits, watch out for his latest album ‘On My Way Here’ which will be out on May 6.
The original American Idol champion, Kelly Clarkson, sang a rousing rendition of the hymn ‘Ave Maria’ for Pope Benedict XVI at Saint Joseph Seminary in Yonkers, New York on Saturday. When asked about how she felt about singing in front of the Pope, Kelly said “I was so excited to be asked to sing for the Pope. I grew up singing church music, and it’s always been a dream of mine to perform ‘Ave Maria.’ To have that dream come true on such a special occasion is truly a blessing.” Around 25,000 young worshipers rallied for the Pope when he visited the US and caught Kelly’s performance.
Rapper Kanye West and his fiancée Alexis Phifer have split up 18 months after getting engaged.
Designer Alexis sparked rumors all was not well with her American Boy after she graced a red carpet event in New York last week with an engagement ring-free wedding finger.
And Alexis has now confirmed suspicions, telling a magazine: “It’s always sad when things like this end, and we remain friends. I wish him the best in his future and all of his endeavours. He’s one of the most talented people I’ve ever met.”
Sources said Kanye’s hectic work schedule as he prepares for his US tour was to blame for the separation. One pal claimed: “They’d been having problems. Kanye is really focused on his show; he’s putting everything into the show right now. Alexis is a nice girl, but Kanye has been going through a rough time.”
After exiting the Broadway stage with her not-so-stellar performances on ‘The Color Purple’, Fantasia Barrino can now join the long list of Idol celebrities who have appeared at prestigious events. The American Idol season 3 winner has been chosen to serve as the Grand Marshall of the 81st Shenandoah Apple Blossom Festival. The event is set to take place on May 3 in Winchester, Virginia. Balloon festivals, outlet mall openings, housing development ground breakings, bingo calling – what’s next for the fallen idols? At this rate, they may end up singing on the street with an open guitar case by their side by the time they crown this season’s Idol.
John Mayer is proving to be the ladies’ man. The 30-year old musician has previously been romantically linked to the likes of Jessica Simpson and Cameron Diaz. But earlier this past week, the blogging douche bag was seen with lead Pussycat Dolls singer, the 29-year old Nicole Scherzinger at the Los Angeles nightclub Villa. I’m not quite sure if that’s a step up or a step down when it comes to his lady loves but whatever floats his over-inflated head – I mean boat. In other John Mayer news, his 2008 summer tour is set to begin on July 2 at Milwaukee’s Summerfest.
The father of Jessica and Ashlee Simpson, Joe, has never been shy about making a quick buck off of his girls. Now that there’s news about Ashlee having a kid of her own, there’s another kid to shill for some money. There’s still no actual confirmation about Ashlee’s pregnancy but the New York Post is reporting that Joe is already trying to cash in by offering up the baby pictures for $1 million. The thing is, no one really cares about the Simpson kid. One magazine editor even comments that she’s more likely to corral just $60,000. Of course, the Simpsons may just be smarter than we think – all the speculation about the pregnancy comes just a week shy of Ashlee’s new album release.
