Jon and Kate, Minus Lots of Money
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Television, Divorce, Legal Issues,
Kate Gosselin has filed papers against Jon…again. This time, the spiky-haired mom of eight says that her ex withdrew $230,000 from their joint bank account.
Jon says this is not true. “I’ve never taken any money out because over ten years, Kate handled all the banking,” he told The Insider. “I have withdrawn roughly $177,000 over the course of a year, which is less than 10 percent of what we made. That’s like my paycheck.”
Gosselin went on to add more to the story, however. “She’s hiding money,” he accused in the interview. “We have eleven bank accounts. This was just our joint account. She has a best-selling book. Where’s that million dollars?”
This divorce is just getting uglier all the time.

Parade: Celebrities Earn 115 Times More Than You
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Music, Rumors,
Parade magazine will soon release a “What People Earn” issue which details the income earned by Hollywood’s elite for the fiscal year of 2008, a year which was extremely rough on the finances of many average Americans.
The issue reports that Jennifer Aniston earned a hefty $27 million, which trumps the paltry $2.25 mill Britney Spears raked in during 2008. Taylor Swift out-earned Brit with $5.5 million, which still pales when compared to Beyonce’s stunning $80 million in earnings.
So who’s the biggest star of them all, the top earner for the year 2008? Is it Brad Pitt, Will Smith, Donald Trump? The winner, earning the most in the last calendar year, is Mattel with a whopping $3.3 billion. Barbie - still hot after all these years. Now, that’s star power.
According to the issue, celebrity salaries trump the average American’s yearly earnings by an extreme amount: the stars earn around 115 times more money than you do. Too bad about the recession - Barbie might’ve made it up to 4 billion on the year.

Did Heath Ledger Have Another Child?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Celebrity Babies, Rumors,
Just when you thought he could finally rest in peace…
Although Heath Ledger‘s passing happened over two months ago, the star is still garnering news…and he has his family to thank for most of it.
After it was revealed that the Brokeback Mountain star did not provide for his daughter, Matilda, in his outdated will, Heath’s father assured everyone that the 2-year-old would be taken care of. Unfortunately, this announcement forced Kim Ledger’s estranged brothers to come out of the woodwork and cry foul. Apparently Heath’s pop was previously accused of mishandling another relative’s estate when he was appointed overseer.
Now there’s the chance that another party could shake up matters a bit more. A possible love child.

No More Neverland for Jackson
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Legal Issues,
Unless fallen icon Michael Jackson can pay off a $24.5 million loan by March 19th, the infamous Neverland Ranch will be auctioned off to the public.
On top of that, it’s not just the house that’s being auctioned off—it’s everything in and on the property, according to FOXNews.com. They report that Jackson may even let the Santa Barbara estate be sold, as he has not lived there for nearly three years.
Although Britney Spears has been giving Michael competition for the Most Mentally Unstable Celebrity Award, Jackson is still quite the oddball who just might fight at the very end to keep his beloved ranch. Then again, it could very well go in the opposite direction by falling into the hands of a very crazed fan. Some people are even speculating that it may even be best to leave as a museum, since Jackson’s international fan base is still very strong.

Someone to Watch Over Britney
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Celebrity Babies, Meltdowns, Breaking News,
It’s no secret that former pop star Britney Spears has had her fair share of troubles recently. She’s in a bitter custody battle with ex-hubby Kevin Federline, she’s been admitted to the hospital and she’s tragic media fodder. The latest reports say Brit will stay in the hospital for at least two weeks more, so now the whole issue has turned down a different path: who’s going to take care of Britney?
Father Jamie Spears was given control over Britney (and her various assets) when she was hospitalized, but all that may change at a Monday hearing. A neutral party, or a different relative, may gain control, according to sources close to the situation. There is also another custody-related hearing scheduled for Monday, the latest in a long string of court appearances which determine which parent will parent Britney’s two children. Unfortunately, it seems right now Spears isn’t capable of taking care of herself.
