Miley Cyrus and Joe JonasMiley Cyrus insists she didn't pressure Joe Jonas into smoking marijuana.

The former Jonas Brothers star recently revealed the "Wrecking Ball" hitmaker and his former girlfriend Demi Lovato introduced him to the drug while they were all young stars working for the Disney Channel, but Miley says she didn't make Joe do anything he didn't want to.

"If you want to smoke weed, you're going to smoke weed. There's nothing that two little girls are going to get you to do that you don't want to do. I thought maybe he was saying that like it was going to make him look badass," she said.

Lady GagaLady Gaga has urged women to stop worrying about their weight because people who achieve great things do not have to look like "supermodels."

The 27-year-old pop superstar has suffered with fluctuating weight throughout her career and has been criticized for being both too thin and overweight. But Gaga has dismissed society's obsession with women's figures and insists it's time people concentrated on what they're going to do with their lives rather than what they look like.

"I want to remind everyone that people who win Nobel Peace Prizes and cure diseases are not supermodels. Your legacy does not need to be a perception of beauty that's not realistic," she said in February's Fashion Magazine.

Although Gaga is now one of the world's biggest singers she insists she would still be wearing eccentric outfits and pushing the boundaries of pop if she was an unsigned artist playing in bars and small venues in her native New York City because music is her life. "There's this implication that if I wasn't so successful I would have to stop. But I never would have stopped. I would be in some bar; being Lady Gaga," she explained.

Selena GomezFollowing Selena Gomez's announcement last week in which she told her fans that she would be canceling her Australian Stars Dance tour, fans were quick to speculate that it was due to exhaustion from her demanding career. Sources, however, have revealed that the former Disney star might actually be suffering from the autoimmune disease Lupus.

The insiders claim that the 21-year-old actress-singer was diagnosed with the illness a couple years ago and has managed to live with it since, but the disease's symptoms have taken their toll on Gomez recently.

"Selena has been going full throttle the past few years and her Lupus is really catching up with her right now. She knows that she needs to take some time to address the disease and look after herself better if she wants to live a full and healthy life," a source close to Gomez said.

Gomez's reps have yet to comment on the news, but from the looks of her latest Instagram photos - which see her among various family members for the holidays - she looks like she's doing well!

The "Bound 2" rapper is no stranger to controversy, most recently slamming the Grammy Awards for not adequately recognizing his latest record Yeezus, but he has now promised to curb his infamous diatribes in the New Year and focus on being positive.

Kanye opened up while on stage for his Yeezus tour in Toronto, Canada, earlier this week, saying, "Everything I'm saying that's not allowed, soak it in right now ... this might be the last time y'all hear me talk s**t for a long time. Might be another like six months. At least. You're just gonna have to run back [my past] interviews and s**t if you wanna hear some realness!"

The 36-year-old rapper - who has a six-month-old daughter, North, with fiancee Kim Kardashian - alluded to his recent controversies, such as slamming sports brand Nike, who replaced him as a spokesperson, and his choice words for the Grammy Awards voting committee:

Miley Cyrus

"I went from people just thinking I was, like, a baby to people thinking I'm this, like, sex freak that really just pops molly and does lines all day. It's like, 'Has anyone ever heard of rock 'n' roll?' There's a sex scene in pretty much every single movie, and they go, 'Well, that's a character.' Well, that's a character. I don't really dress as a teddy bear and, like, twerk on Robin Thicke, you know?"

+ What do Taylor Swift, Jessica Biel, Jamie King, Jessica Alba, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner all have in common? Their love of holiday onesies, naturally.

+ Has Keri Russell moved on from her husband of 7 years, Shane Deary? Sources who spotted Russell with her Americans co-star Matthew Rhys in New York City recently say that the pair looked to be more than just friends.

Cyrus Family Christmas Photo

It looks like the Kardashians have some competition in the holiday family photo department.

Miley Cyrus took to her Instagram to share her clan's - which includes Billy Ray, Tish, Miley, Trace, Noah, Brandi, and Braison - holiday photos, which sees them recreating an old, awkward snapshot and another where they're pretending to fight each other (seen after the jump). While these photos aren't as lavish and grandiose as the aforementioned reality family, these Cyrus photos make me wish that the they adopted me! And can we please take a moment to look at how freaking adorable Miley was as a kid?

Justin BieberA Christmas miracle to some and utter disappointment to Beliebers, Justin Bieber has reiterated his statement on retiring yesterday.

Although an insider close to the musician quelled fans' shock when he initially told Los Angeles radio station Power 106 last week that he was retiring, the 19-year-old confirmed the news again on his Twitter.

"My beloved beliebers I'm officially retiring," he wrote on the social networking site. Additionally, the "Boyfriend" singer hinted at the reason behind his career decision: "The media talks a lot about me.They make a up a lot of lies and want me to fail but I'm never leaving you, being a belieber is a lifestyle."

He also reassured fans, wishing them a Merry Christmas and posting, "IM HERE FOREVER [sic]."

Until we get a more official word from his team, I'm probably not going to trust the Twitter page of a teenage star who's been acting recklessly in the past few months, but that's just me. Let's not forget that Britney Spears went back to work after her meltdown...

Nathan Sykes and Ariana GrandeAriana Grande and Nathan Sykes have split up.

The couple, who went public with their romance in September after releasing their duet "Almost Is Never Enough," broke up a few weeks ago as their relationship had run its course. "They just weren't into it anymore," a source said.

The 20-year-old "The Way" hitmaker previously gushed about the "amazing" The Wanted singer, 20, and recently insisted it wasn't "tough" for them to spend time together despite their busy schedules. "It's not as tough as people would think. We have the same music manager, so we can see each other's schedules and plan little trips as often as we can," she told the February 2014 issue of Teen Vogue.

But a source close to Nathan said they "hardly ever saw each other" and are currently on a break.

Wilmer Valderrama and Demi LovatoWilmer Valderrama has reportedly bought an engagement ring for Demi Lovato.

The That '70s Show actor, who secretly rekindled his romance with the former X Factor judge earlier this year, has sparked speculation he may propose to the 21-year-old beauty after being spotted buying a diamond sparkler from Tiffany & Co. last month. "It looked like an engagement ring, but could have just been a nice expensive ring he was giving to Demi. He was really low-key at the store and was trying to stay under the radar," an eyewitness said.

The 33-year-old actor allegedly engraved the ring with a special message reading, 'With you and by you always,' which he also wrote in a Twitter message to mark Demi's 21st birthday in August. "I've been so proud of the strength & commitment you've gained 4 life, keep inspiring us all! Happy birthday my @ddlovato! With & by u always [sic]," he wrote.
