Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Child Stars, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Amanda Bynes has been dropped by her agent, publicist and entertainment lawyer. The troubled Easy A actress has been abandoned by three of her team in recent weeks, with them all claiming it is due to her behavior becoming increasingly erratic in recent months.
One source told TMZ.com her management team haven't been able to get in touch with the former child star in a month and attempts to get help her before she went under the radar had all failed.
Amanda has had a turbulent few months, including recently having her car impounded and her driving license suspended while she faces charges of DUI (driving under the influence) and multiple accusations of hit and run. The 26-year-old star says she is responsible and that she never drinks and drives, as well as claiming she is quitting acting, which could explain why she hasn't talked to her managers.

Nicole Richie Wants a Stable Home for Kids
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Celebrity Babies, Features,
Nicole Richie wants her children to have "stability."
The 30-year-old designer spent a lot of time on the road with her father Lionel Richie when she was growing up but wants Harlow, four, and three-year-old Sparrow - her kids with rocker husband Joel Madden - to spend most of their time at home.
"One of the biggest differences in the way I'm raising my kids versus the way I was raised is that I was on tour a lot. I don't really do that with my kids. It's important to me that they have stability. I like them to be home," she said.
However, Nicole - who has previously battled drug addiction - insists there was nothing "wrong" with the way she was raised by Lionel and her mother Brenda. "I was taken out of school and had tutors. By the time my father went onstage, I was asleep. There's no right or wrong way to raise a family. Look, I don't know anyone who can say they don't just try and do the best that they can do," she added.

Demi Lovato Always Had Body Issues
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Child Stars, Features,
Demi Lovato says her body issues began when she was three. The X Factor judge - who has spent time in rehab getting treatment for her eating disorder and self harming - admits she felt she was overweight from a very young age, and the insecurities have stayed with her.
"I remember being three years old in a diaper and rubbing my hand over my stomach ... and I remember thinking in my head, 'I wonder if one day this will ever be flat?'" she said on Katie.
The 20-year-old beauty - who has recently been named as the new ambassador of an anti-bullying campaign - was targeted at school as the girls used to tease her for her appearance. "It played more of a toll on me than if I was physically abused in school. I've always said I wished that they had just hit me in the face and gotten it over with because what they said to me sticks to me to this day and it affected me, (turned) me into the person I am today. I was bullied and they called me fat and they called me horrible things," she added.

Kanye West has urged Kim Kardashian to take style tips from Duchess Catherine.
The rapper believes his girlfriend of six months - who shot to fame after making a sex tape with her then boyfriend Ray J - could learn a lot from the British royal's "poise and sophistication" along with her conservative style.
Speaking about the duchess - who was previously known as Kate Middleton - a source told the Daily Star newspaper, "Kanye has been urging Kim to tone down her make-up and style her hair in a more conservative style, like Kate. And it's not just Kate's regal look that Kanye wants Kim to mimic. He's also told her that she could learn a thing or two about poise and sophistication from Kate."
Kim recently revealed Kanye has managed to convince her to live her life at a slower pace and focus less on her work and more on her personal life.

Amanda Bynes Charged with Driving on a Suspended License
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Child Stars, Legal Issues,
Amanda Bynes has been charged with two counts of driving on a suspended license. The 26-year-old was formally charged on Friday after two incidents at Burbank Airport in California which occurred an hour and a half apart last Sunday, according to gossip website TMZ. She could face up to six months in jail for each charge.
This is the latest in a string of setbacks for Amanda whose recent troubles include having her car impounded and facing charges of DUI (driving under the influence). She was also involved in two bizarre episodes earlier this week, locking herself in a store changing room for nearly two hours and refusing to come out and stripping off during a gym class.
"Amanda stopped to take her T-shirt off, revealing only a tiny, black, strapless push-up bra - not a sports bra. She then picked up her Louis Vuitton handbag and pulled out her makeup kit and started reapplying her lipstick and eyeliner while looking at herself in the large mirror in front of her," an onlooker in the class said. The instructor, Maurice Rabsatt, confirmed what happened on Twitter and wishes Amanda a "healthy recovery."

Paris Hilton Apologizes for Negative Gay Comments
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Rants,
Paris Hilton is sorry "from the bottom" of her heart of insulting gay people.
The 31-year-old socialite was recorded stating many gay men "probably have AIDS" and saying they are "disgusting" for being promiscuous to a friend in the back of a taxi, but she has now apologized for her words and insists they do not represent her true feelings towards the homosexual community.
"I am so sorry and so upset that I caused pain to my gay friends, fans and their families with the comments heard this morning. I was having this private conversation with a friend of mine who is gay and our conversation was in no way towards the entire gay community. It is the last thing that I would ever want to do and I cannot put into words how much I wish I could take back every word," she said in a statement on the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) website.

Claire Danes Excited About Motherhood
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Pregnancies,
Claire Danes is very excited about becoming a mother. The Homeland actress is expecting her first child with husband Hugh Dancy and while she knows their lives are going to change forever, she admits they're already smitten with the baby.
"There's no way of anticipating what that's going to mean for us but we are very excited. We are going to love this person, I know that," she said.
Claire grew up around little children but admits she doesn't have much experience with newborn babies. "My mom ran a toddler school in our loft; I grew up in the city. So I grew up with one-and two-year-olds all throughout my childhood, and I know about early childhood development - that particular window I am pretty educated on. Anything before and after I might have some trouble," she said.
Claire also revealed she and Hugh - who married in 2009 - know the sex of the baby but have decided to keep it quiet. "It's important to keep a little something to ourselves because we are so public," she added.

Demi Lovato has become the face of a new anti-bullying campaign.
The X Factor judge - who was bullied when she was at school - is the new ambassador for Secret's Mean Stinks campaign, which encourages girls to "gang up for good" to end bullying in schools.
"I heard about the program last year, and thought it was such a great opportunity. They're really trying to put an end to bullying," she said.
The program asks girls to pledge to have a "Drama Free School Year" by making a pinky swear, symbolized by wearing blue nail polish on their pinky fingers and Demi added, "I'll definitely be wearing [the nail polish] starting soon. It's a conversation starter: 'Hey, why is your pinky blue?' 'This is a pinky promise that I'm not going to bully people, that me and my friends are ganging up for good.'"

Kanye West has taught Kim Kardashian to slow down. The reality TV star has been dating the rapper for around six months and Kim admits before she started her relationship with him she was living life too fast so didn't have time to appreciate things.
"I've slowed down a little bit and for the better. It was a good lesson learned. I now make it a priority to take time out for myself and have private vacations," she said.
Kim also said she's learned from her mistakes in the past but has never been put off finding love: "To be in a happy, healthy relationship means everything. It's everything when you want to share your life with someone. We all make mistakes. Life is about learning as you go and not making the same mistakes again. Nobody is perfect. I don't ever try to be. I try to be responsible and honest and open. You have to trust your gut. Happiness is everything, life is short, and you should never not be happy. Relationships go through different things, and that's completely normal. But you know when you're happy."
