Paris Hilton Displays Humanitarian Efforts on Twitter
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Music, Television, Charity, Photos,
Humanitarianism seems a bit infectious in Hollywood these days—so infectious that Paris Hilton has caught the bug.
Paris channels Angelina Jolie as she poses for her Twitter picture, holding a baby in a children’s hospital.
I’m glad that this trend is of the do-good fare, as opposed to the meaningless and detrimental effects of Paris’s past habits.

Megan Fox Doesn’t Understand the Jolie Comparisons
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Style,
You know - looking like Angelina Jolie is not a bad thing…especially if you can pull it off. So why is Megan Fox bothered by the constant comparisons?
In a recent interview, the Transformers star - pictured here on on the
left with Shia LaBeouf and Michael Bay at the June 14 premiere in Berlin - told Entertainment Weekly that she doesn’t understand why her name is ever linked with the Oscar winner’s. “I think it’s a lack of creativity on the media’s part. Because I have tattoos and dark hair and I was in an action movie? That’s as far as the similarities extend. I’m not the next anyone,” Fox claimed. “I’m sure she has no idea who I am. But if I were her, I’d be like, ‘‘Who the f—- is this little bulls—- brat who was in Transformers that’s going to be the next me?’’ I don’t want to meet her; I’d be embarrassed.”
So now it’s the media’s for fault for lacking creativity? Unless I’m mistaken, Megan just ripped off Angelina’s thigh-baring, peep-toe heeled look from the Cannes Film Festival. If Fox doesn’t want to hear the comments anymore, maybe she shouldn’t emulate Jolie’s style.

Angelina Jolie Tops Oprah on Forbes Power List
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Sports, Television,
Apparently I’m a Celebrity has devalued Spencer Pratt’s fame so much, he didn’t even rank in the Top 100.
After combining figures based on entertainment-related earnings and media popularity, there was a surprise shift in the Forbes annual power list. According to the magazine, Angelina Jolie now carries more weight than the reigning talk show queen.
Thanks to a high interest in her new twins, several blockbusters (Wanted, Kung Fu Panda) and her ongoing humanitarian work, Jolie has earned the top spot for 2009. Billionaire Oprah, last year’s #1, slid by only one spot despite a dip in her program’s ratings. Madonna, Beyonce, Tiger Woods, Bruce Springsteen, Steven Spielberg, Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt and Kobe Bryant round off the Top 10.

Angelina Jolie Fan Sues Children’s Charity
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Legal Issues, Rumors,
A disgruntled Angelina Jolie fan has filed suit against the Lili Claire Foundation. The charitable organization provides help to children suffering from medical problems and their families, but they might soon be shelling out money on behalf of the movie star.
The man who filed suit claims he won a meeting with Jolie at an auction, an adventure that cost him a cool thirty grand ($30,000). The only trouble is, he never got to meet the star…and he never got his money back, either.
Now that two years have passed, the fan has decided to take legal action against the charitable foundation. Think they could get Angie to pop over and cool his ire a little?

Octuplet Mom: Why is This Woman Famous?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: D-List, Celebrity Babies, Rumors,
Nadya Suleman appeared one day out of nowhere, and now she’s a huge media celebrity. Hardly a day goes by without a new headline or feature interview, juicy rumors and breaking developments. This mother of fourteen has never starred in a movie or had a recurring role in a televised series. Until recently she wasn’t known for writing or speaking words that many others read and hear, and she’s never been a star of the stage.
During a recent visit with Dr. Phil, Suleman said, “I’m not a celebrity,” adding “I’m no one special.”
So…why’s she famous?

Unfortunate Hairstyle of the Day: Angelina Jolie
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Fashion Police, Hair Styles, Red Carpet, Style,
As hard as it might be to believe, Angelina Jolie does have her “off” days.
Monday night in Berlin, Jolie arrived at the Benjamin Button premiere with an ultra glam ‘do. Unfortunately, the ‘50s bouffant made the Changeling star look more matronly rather than sexy.
And, yes - your eyes are not deceiving you. Angelina also brought back another era by wearing just one Asprey earring. For all of you stuck in the ‘80s: Your time has come again!
(You can find more “unfortunate” hairstyles here.)

What’s Next for Angelina Jolie?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Celebrity Babies, Editorials,
“I don’t love being alone like I used to,” Angelina Jolie said to Today, referring to her now long-standing relationship with Hollywood hottie Brad Pitt. “I met the right person.”
With her love life nice and stable (apparently in spite of what the media says), with her new twins now a well-established three months of age and a hot new movie ready to debut, what could Jolie possibly add to the mix? …How about another kid? Sure, she’s only got six (and counting).

Angelina Jolie’s W Photo Spread
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Photos,
In the upcoming issue of W, the world will get a chance to see intimate portraits of Angelina Jolie taken from a unique perspective. For this photo shoot (which took place just weeks after Vivienne and Knox were born), the man behind the camera was someone the subjects knew quite well: Brad Pitt.
While much has been made of the breastfeeding mom on the cover, the pictures within the issue - especially the ones involving the older children - are equally as beautiful.
To view the entire photo spread, you can pick up the November issue of W on October 21. Until then, you can see a few more snapshots on the magazine’s website or after the jump.

After keeping to her homes in France and Germany, Angelina Jolie emerged yesterday for the cameras stateside.
Jolie - who arrived in New York earlier this week - stepped out last night for a dinner with Clint Eastwood, her Changeling director, and co-star Amy Ryan. (Their movie premieres October 24.) It’s the first time she’s braved the paparazzi since the arrivals of Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline.
Now if this is what I could look like three months after delivering twins…sign me up!
