Kim Kardashian Subpoenas Kris Humphries’ Ex

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Sports, Television, Divorce, Legal Issues,

Kim KardashianKim Kardashian has served Kris Humphries' ex-girlfriend with a subpoena.

The socialite's lawyers are keen to speak with Myla Sinanaj - who began dating the basketball player in January - to find out whether Kris said anything to her in relation to his claim that the 72-day marriage was fraud. Kim's lawyer is also said to want details of hundreds of text messages and emails between Myla and Kris.

According to gossip website TMZ, Kris initially hid the relationship because he was worried it would impact on the divorce case as he and his representatives felt him moving on just over two months after he and Kim split would make it appear he wasn't "devastated" by the reality TV star's decision to file for divorce despite his previous statements.

Myla's lawyer previously admitted his client would be prepared to help Kim in her divorce proceedings.

But I wanted the clothes to be where any girl could wear it - no matter what size you are - and you could feel comfortable in it," she said.

The Dreamgirls actress is "looking forward" to her collection drawing in the multicultural market as well as music and film fans, and the brunette beauty insists she would wear every single item in her 14-piece range: "It has to be true to me. I would not sign off on it if I would not wear it."

Kim and Kourtney Kardashian with Scott DisickKim Kardashian would undergo artificial insemination.

The 31-year-old reality star - who is currently dating rapper Kanye West - said if she's single by the time she turns 40, she would opt for IVF treatment in order to have a baby.

"If I'm 40 and not married, I would have a baby artificially inseminated. I would feel like Mary, like Jesus is my baby, you know?" Kim told Scott Disick - who is expecting his second child with Kim's sister Kourtney - speaking on her family's reality TV show.

The revelation came as the pair embarked on a wild night out on the latest episode of the popular show, after sister Kourtney insisted party-loving Scott go on a date night with socialite Kim. Scott, 29, was less than enthusiastic at first, moaning, "I love Kim, but she's the most boring person ever. Kim only stays out for an hour." Kim and Scott bonded over dinner and then hit online chatroom Chat Roulette, where Kim lifted up her top for the camera.

Charlie SheenCharlie Sheen will retire when Anger Management comes to an end.

The 46-year-old actor sees his forthcoming new comedy show as his "swan song," and rather than looking for further acting work, he is looking forward to spending more time with his five kids - Cassandra, 27, Sam, eight, Lola, seven, and two-year-old twins Bob and Max - when the program eventually draws to a close.

"When I'm done with this business it's just going to be about soccer games and amusement parks. And when [Anger Management] ends, I'm done. This is my swan song. I've been doing this 30 years. And there's a lot more out there to do than make-believe, you know? I mean, I'm grateful. I've got a dream life as a direct result of television, you know? But at some point you just get tired of wearing somebody else's clothes, saying somebody else's words and working in somebody else's space. I'm also aware of the fact that you don't get these kinds of shots in the same lifetime. You're only supposed to have one hit show, unless you're Kelsey Grammer."

Carrie Underwood Wants to Popularize Country

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Editorials, Country,

Carrie UnderwoodCarrie Underwood wants to make country music appealing around the world.

The 29-year-old singer - who has sold over 14 million albums since winning American Idol in 2005 - thinks it is sad the genre isn't as popular in other countries as it is in the US.

"It's always fun to expand your resume. Country music isn't too popular outside the US and that's something I'd like to change. It's a shame other people aren't exposed on a daily basis to such a wonderful form of music," she said.

Carrie admits she was told she would find appearing on American Idol difficult because of her country roots, but she always had the backing of then-head judge Simon Cowell and didn't have to change or conform.

"From the beginning I was told, 'It's going to be rough for you, it's a pop TV show.' But everything I did just came out country. And Simon encouraged me to stick at what I do well. My goal is to make country music everyone can get into," she added.


Seduction Of The Innocent by Max Allan Collins

Seduction Of The InnocentFantastic news!

I’ve always felt that the comic book industry would be a great background for a mystery novel, and there have been a couple, inclduing The Comic Book Killer by Richard Lupoff and Max Allan Collins’ A Killing In Comics.

Now Max is back with a new mystery from Hard Case Crime, one of my favorite mystery publishers. The book is called Seduction Of The Innocent and it’s no coincidence that it shares the title with good ol’ Fredric Wertham’s classic anti-comic screed.

Collins’ hero, Jack Starr (a comics syndicate troubleshooter - and isn’t that a great-sounding job?) investigates a murder set against the backdrop of Congressional hearings about the banning of violent crime and horror comics.
