Nicole Richie in the Hospital With Pneumonia

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 22:02:21 +0000

Nicole Richie is at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles being treated for pneumonia, according to People. Recently, rumors began swirling that Nicole, 28, and her beau Joel Madden had secretly tied the knot. Could the stress from all the paparazzi coverage have taken it's toll on the starlet and mother of two? Contrary to what the bloggers are saying, she is in fact not stricken with the swine flu.

Ashlee Simpson Defends Jessica - Again

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 06:44:25 +0000

For the second time this year, singer/actress Ashlee Simpson has come to her big sister Jessica's defense. In January 2009, when critics slammed Jessica Simpson, 29, for gaining a few pounds, Ashlee, 25, quickly stepped in. She took to her personal blog letting the media know that she was not in agreement with them.

Back in January, she proudly posted: "All women come in different shapes, sizes, and forms. How can we expect teenage girls to love and respect themselves in an environment where we criticize a size 2 figure?"

This time, Ashlee brought up the topic during an interview for Women's Health magazine's December issue. She said, "My sister has an incredible body. I feel sorry for anyone who would judge her, because she's one sexy lady. It's disgusting that people would say those things."

It's good to see that even in Hollywood, blood is still thicker than water.

Stephanie Pratt to Enter 30-Day Rehab Program

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 23:57:59 +0000

The Hills reality 'star' Stephanie Pratt is headed for rehab. Last month, Stephanie, 23, was arrested in LA for suspicion of driving under the influence. According to TMZ, her breathalyzer tests registered .08 and .09 while the legal limit is .08. She decided to plead not guilty to a charge of misdemeanor DUI and will probably get off scott free.

If she ends up being convicted, Stephanie faces up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. This is Hollywood after all, so we're talking more like six hours in jail to go along with that measly $1,000 fine.

Julianne Hough and Chuck Wicks Call it Quits

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 16:39:37 +0000

After nearly a year of dating, Julianne Hough and Chuck Wicks are no longer a couple, according to People. Could it have something to do with the nine year age difference? Perhaps. I definitely recall how Julianne, 21, and Chuck, 30, were waxing poetic just days into their relationship. But then again, doesn't every new celebrity romance seem just perfect when the parties involved are wearing proverbial rose colored glasses?

Singer Celine Dion is Not Pregnant - Yet

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 12:27:29 +0000

It looks like Celine Dion's doctor may have spoken too soon. In August, Celine, 41, and her husband Rene Angelil, 67, announced (through their doctor) that they were happily expecting their second child together. After numerous IVF attempts, they were excited at the idea that they could be adding another baby to their family.

People is now reporting that "Dion's doctor announced that she was pregnant via in vitro fertilization very early in the process, and it is now revealed that the embryos transferred in August and October were unsuccessful."

Along with the support and help of their medical team, Celine and Rene are not giving up and are determined to keep trying. The couple must be eager to have a sibling for their son, Rene Charles, born in 2001. (He was also born with the help of IVF)

Did Josh Duhamel Cheat on Fergie With a Stripper?

Mon, 09 Nov 2009 09:40:25 +0000

The gossip mills are buzzing that actor Josh Duhamel cheated on his new wife Fergie - with a stripper. An Atlanta based dancer, Nicole Forrester, told the media that she had a scandalous one-night stand with Josh in his hotel room. While the actor's rep denies that this ever took place, the woman claims to know otherwise. She even has suggestive text messages and a polygraph test on her side.

"It's the truth. I'm not lying about anything. I have nothing to hide and he's just guilty as I am," she told the National Enquirer. Does it affect her credibility that the stripper was paid $20,000 by the tabloid for her story?

Rihanna Talks About the Chris Brown Incident

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 10:00:29 +0000

After months of silence, Rihanna finally decided to come forward and openly discuss the February 2009 beating that she endured at the hands of her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. Rihanna spoke exclusively to 20/20's Diane Sawyer and was not shy about expressing her feelings.

What was she thinking as he was attacking her on that fateful day? "When is it going to stop? When is it going to stop? He had no soul in his eyes. Just blank. He was clearly blacked-out. There was no person when I looked at him. I was battered, I was bleeding, I was swollen in my face," she recounted.

Amazingly, the singer claims to have no negative feelings towards even admitting that she still has love for the abuser. "No, I don't hate him at all. I actually love and care about him. I want him to do well, have a great career, have a great life and grow up. And just take this as something you had to go through to grow up and learn."

Wise words from an amazing woman.

Mel Gibson Welcomes Eighth Child

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 08:16:06 +0000

According to RadarOnline, Mel Gibson's future wife, Oksana Grigorieva, welcomed a baby girl named Lucia on October 30 in LA. They originally confirmed the pregnancy to Jay Leno back in May. While this is Oksana's first, Mel, 53, is a pro as he already has seven children (six sons and one daughter) with his ex-wife Robyn.

Rumor has it that Oksana, 39, was behind the sudden collapse of Mel's 29-year marriage. She and Mel are technically engaged to be married but have yet to discuss a wedding date.

Nicolas Cage Passes the Buck on Money Problems

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 06:17:34 +0000

Recently, Nicolas Cage found himself in hot water with the IRS for allegedly failing to pay some hefty taxes. We're not talking about pocket change either - Nic owes the government over $6 million! Just weeks ago, we heard talk that Nicolas, 45, was attempting to sell of some of his many properties to clear up the debt. Now he's essentially passing the buck on this problem.

According to People, the well paid actor filed a lawsuit against his own business manager, Samuel J. Levin. The suit claims that Samuel, "lined his [own] pockets with several million dollars in business management fees while sending Cage down a path toward financial ruin."

Who do you think is really to blame in this situation? We'll leave that up to the courts as the case is scheduled to go before a judge in February 2010.
