Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Photos, Features,

Heidi Montag got her breast implants reduced in size because they were causing her severe pain.

The former The Hills star, who shocked her fans after she underwent 10 plastic surgery procedures in one day in 2010, recently went under the knife again to have her implants reduced from a size F to a size C, because they were causing her back problems. She decided to have six-hours of surgery on October 4 after reconstructive specialist Dr. Jay Orringer warned her that her chest was "bottoming out."

"He told me they were falling through the bottom, and I got scared. It's super dangerous. They can fall through to your belly button!" she added.

Amanda Bynes is expected to be released from rehab in time for Christmas.

The troubled actress, who has been in care since being placed under an involuntary psychiatric hold in July, will reportedly be granted release in December after exhibiting marked improvements in her health. According to TMZ, Amanda has responded well to the medication and counselling she has been provided at The Canyon rehab facility in Malibu, California - where she moved to in September after transferring from the UCLA Medical Center's psychiatric ward - and doctors believe the treatment has "sufficiently stabilized" her.

The 27-year-old star is expected to be released into the care of her mother, Lynn, who will supervise her at their family home as she readjusts to the world.

It was recently reported the She's the Man actress - whose erratic behavior in public and on Twitter earlier this year led to her involuntary psychiatric hold - has been allowed to embark on supervised outings twice a week as she has made "great progress."

Heidi Montag Gets Breast Reduction

Heidi Montag has had a breast reduction.

The former The Hills star, who shocked her fans after she underwent 10 plastic surgery procedures in one day in 2010, has gone under the knife again to have her implants reduced, taking her from a size F to a size D.

The 27-year-old blonde beauty told Entertainment Tonight host Brooke Anderson that she had her breasts downsized for "health reasons." Heidi - who married her reality TV co-star Spencer Pratt in 2008 - previously hit back at reports suggesting she regretted her cosmetic surgeries but admitted she wouldn't recommend it: "It could have been really disastrous. I lived and I learned, and I wouldn't really recommend it for other people. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be going through it - physically, mentally, emotionally and the recovery. I'm just glad it's done and that everything healed so well."

However she also blamed her plastic surgeon, Dr. Frank Ryan, who died in a tragic car accident on the Pacific Coast Highway in 2010, for her excessive procedures.

Chris Brown Staying in Rehab for Three Months

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Legal Issues, Meltdowns,

Chris Brown is being urged to stay in rehab for three months.

The "Fine China" singer checked into a treatment facility in Malibu, California, on Tuesday, just two days after being arrested for assault after allegedly breaking a man's nose outside a hotel in Washington D.C., and his management team want him to remain there until early next year.

"The rehab facility has been told to take him [Brown] apart and put him back together," a source said.

The 24-year-old star, who is still on probation for beating his ex-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009, is reportedly open to remaining in care so he can learn how to cope with his anger management issues and prove he is serious about overcoming them, as he has been warned by his lawyer, Mark Geragos, that he could be sentenced to up to four years behind bars if the judge decides he has violated his probation. "Chris Brown has elected to enter a rehab facility. His goal is to gain focus and insight into his past and recent behaviour, enabling him to continue the pursuit of his life and his career from a healthier vantage point," a spokesperson for the singer previously said.

Tori Spelling Lied About Baby Weight Loss

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: D-List, Television, Pregnancies,

Tori Spelling lied about her weight loss after giving birth.

The 40-year-old actress has admitted she wasn't honest about how she shed the pounds following the birth of her son Finn in August 2012, revealing she severely restricted her food intake rather than taking up exercise like she previously claimed. In April, Tori said she had taken up low-impact cardio and a healthy diet of fish and vegetables, but in her new autobiography Spelling It Like It Is, she wrote, "I really don't exercise much, period. So I took off my weight the old-fashioned way. I like to call it the 'Just Keep Your F**king Mouth Shut and Eat Air' diet. It's all the rage. My publicist had given me clear instructions about what to say about my weight loss. Women didn't want to know that I had lost weight through dieting, not exercising. I didn't want to be the a**hole who didn't work for it. So I said that I swam. It was sort of a bad choice. I can't do much more than a doggy paddle."

The actress - who also has son Liam, six, and daughters Stella, five, Hattie, two, with husband Dean McDermott - previously said she had taken up swimming to help lose weight and had substituted her husband's home cooked meals with lean sushi.

Kerry Washington: I Don’t Drink Alcohol

Kerry Washington doesn't drink alcohol.

The 36-year-old star admits she only indulges in booze on special occasions as she likes to keep a clear head in every situation, and would rather steer away from the high amount of calories embedded in an alcoholic beverage. Speaking to the New York Post newspaper, she said, "I actually live quietly. Work hard. Get bored easily. Don't drink. Who needs those empty calories? I watch what I eat. I train, do pilates. I drink maybe twice a year."

While the Emmy Award-nominated actress insists she likes to maintain a healthy diet, she previously admitted she suffers from severe allergies to a lot of food types and must travel with an EpiPen - a syringe containing epinephrine used to treat allergic reactions - at all times. "Most people do not know about this but I carry an EpiPen with me almost everywhere I go because I have a lot of food allergies, like fatal food allergies, that if I eat these things, I could wind up dying in an emergency room somewhere. So I always have an EpiPen. It's not sexy, but I'm being honest, I have an EpiPen in my bag," she explained.

Mariah Carey: Shoulder Injury Is as Painful as Child Birth

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Features,

Mariah Carey has likened her painful shoulder injury to giving birth.

The "#Beautiful" hitmaker has been confined to a sling since July after taking a severe fall and dislocating her shoulder on the set of a music video, and she says the traumatic experience was not too dissimilar to the pain she felt giving birth to two-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe.

"I feel like I have suffered the toughest experience of my life about several things; one was having twins and anybody who's ever had multiples will know it is one of the most difficult experiences ever but the reward is just beyond - I can't even explain how rewarding having these babies is for me. But yeah, breaking my rib was not festive. Dislocating my shoulder was not a good thing, either."

Earlier this month, the 43-year-old songbird lamented on her tough road to recovery, telling fans her dislocated shoulder has been the "toughest experience" of her life in an emotional open letter posted on her Facebook page. "When people expected me to go, 'Here I am, I'm back and everything's great,' it didn't happen because my hand was still in tremendous pain and it took this long for it to heal," she wrote.

The "Rocket Man" singer - who cancelled a string of summer concert dates after being stricken with appendicitis - is said to be feeling "great" after undergoing the 45-minute procedure at Monaco's Princess Grace hospital on Thursday and is now recovering at his home in Nice, France with husband David Furnish and their sons Zachary, two, and seven-month-old Elijah.

"Elton is back in Nice playing with the boys now. He is a lot better and very positive after the operation. He still has to rest up but is determined to get back on the road next month and can't wait to see his fans who have sent thousands of get well soon messages," a source added.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Child Stars, Rumors,

Paris Jackson has moved into a new treatment facility.

The 15-year-old aspiring actress, who attempted suicide last month, left UCLA Medical Center on Tuesday and is now staying at an undisclosed residential treatment center, where she will continue to be supervised and undergo treatment for depression. A source told People.com that the facility was chosen by Paris' grandmother and legal guardian Katherine Jackson, as well as her biological mother Debbie Rowe, who she has recently reconnected with, because they did think she was ready to return home.

"The feeling is that Paris is still a danger to herself. Both Katherine and Debbie want her to get the help that she needs," the insider added.

It was recently revealed that Demi Lovato reached out to Paris. The X Factor judge, who has a history of self-harm and whose estranged father recently died, reached out to the troubled teenager to let her know she is not alone. "With Demi having just lost her dad, she feels a special bond with Paris. She told Paris about how she'd endured horrible bullying about her weight and her looks and even nasty comments about her estranged father. That struck a chord with Paris because of her own controversial father and like Demi, she's been dieting for years.There are so few people in Hollywood who show up during the tough times but Demi is the real deal," a source said.

Rehab “Too Hard” for Brooke Mueller

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Drugs, Rumors,

Brooke Mueller quit rehab because it was "too hard."

The former wife of Charlie Sheen checked in to the Betty Ford Clinic in California last month for her 21st rehab stint but left the facility recently because she was unhappy at being asked to do chores. "Brooke didn't tell anyone, including her lawyer, that she had left Betty Ford. Brooke hated Betty Ford because she was required to do daily chores, which she resented. She complained that Betty Ford was just too hard. Betty Ford is hardcore and Brooke just doesn't respond well in situations where she can't call the shots," a source said.

However, 35-year-old Brooke's decision to leave rehab could ruin her chances at regaining custody of her four-year-old twin sons Bob and Max, who are currently being looked after by Charlie's other ex-wife Denise Richards. "This could have a serious impact on Brooke's bid to get custody of the twins. Brooke just doesn't seem to be taking get sober that seriously. Her doctors at Betty Ford advised her not to leave, but she did anyway. Her therapists will be submitting an extensive report about Brooke's time at Betty Ford and it won't be glowing, that is for sure," the insider added.
