Charlie Sheen Wins in Cleveland, Trademarks Key Phrases
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Television, Rumors,
We kinda hate to say that Charlie Sheen showed professionalism and grace by shouldering his epic defeat in Detroit and going on to rock Cleveland to score a huge standing ovation -- that’s too much like paying the former Two and a Half Men actor a compliment. Instead, we’ll blame his amazing recovery and newfound comedic chops on Adonis DNA… while it’s still free for us to do so.
That could change soon. Along with Adonis DNA, Charlie Sheen’s company Hyro-gliff has filed paperwork to trademark several of the entertainer’s popular phrases, including tiger blood, violent torpedo of truth, sober valley lodge and duh, winning.

Britney Spears Dancers Ordered Not to Give Her Drugs, Alcohol
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Child Stars, Drugs, Drunk, Legal Issues,
While Britney Spears may have finally made her true comeback, a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) handed out to her dancers proves that the Princess of Pop is still not in control of her own life.
In the document, a dancer "acknowledges that it is essential that [Britney] not be exposed to any alcohol, drugs, or controlled substances." The NDA goes on to read that dancers could face random drug tests; if they fail or refuse to take them, they risk losing their job.
Partying sober with Britney Spears? Talk about a paradox!
She may be 29 years-old, but her management finds it necessary to treat her like a 9 year-old; even Miley Cyrus gets more freedom than Britney.

Entertainment Industry Reacts to Hudson Tragedy
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Music, Breaking News,
“I’m planning on touring,” Jennifer Hudson smiled and spoke enthusiastically only weeks ago. “There’s more films and more music and stuff like that [in the future],” she said. “I want to start a fashion line as well, start writing music.” After her breakout performance in Dreamgirls, appearing as Carrie Bradshaw’s assistant in the runaway hit chick flick Sex and the City and with a new album and movie already making waves, Jennifer Hudson’s life seemed charmed. Today, the effervescent star is at the center of a grisly tragedy.
Engaged to David Otunga and on the brink of what appears to be an extremely successful career, Hudson talked of her many future plans. “It’s gonna be a production,” she said of her wedding. “I have so many visions for it right now - I get to put that together.”
Hudson, 27, had the world at her feet only last week. Now, she probably feels the weight of the world crashing down on her shoulders. Over the weekend, Hudson’s mother and brother were victims of domestic violence, events which proved fatal for both. On Monday, the star was in Chicago identifying the body of her nephew Julian, 7, who had gone missing after the killings took place.

Can DWTS’ Julianne Hough Sing as Well as She Can Dance?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Television, Videos,
Even though critics have recently panned actress Scarlett Johansson’s debut album, her music experience won’t stop other stars from moonlighting as a singer. (You can see Scarlett’s video here.)
Earlier today, dancer Julianne Hough performed live for the Good Morning America audience. The two-time Dancing with the Stars champ just released her first album and is set to go on tour with country artist Brad Paisley.
Listen and decide for yourself. Do you think she’s as talented a singer as she is a dancer? Or should she stick to her day job?

Kanye West No Longer Engaged
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Break-ups,
In the past six months, Kanye West has experienced a series of highs and lows…personally and professionally. Just last November, the rapper unexpectedly lost his mother to heart disease after a scheduled surgical procedure. That setback led to a heartfelt performance from West at this February’s Grammys.
Now the 30-year-old artist is currently wowing fans and critics with his Glow in the Dark tour while weathering an another emotional period. It’s been announced that his wedding to designer Alexis Phifer has been called off. The couple, who had been engaged since 2006, had reportedly been spending less and less time together during West’s pre-tour preparations.
In a recent blog entry, Kanye said he was wasn’t dedicating his energy to things he didn’t love anymore. I guess that, sadly, included Phifer.

Mariah Carey’s Ridiculous Lingerie Closet
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Television, Clothing, Videos, Editorials,
After yesterday’s tour of Mariah Carey‘s lingerie closet on Oprah, several questions came to mind.
I know the singer was in Africa when the talk show host opened up her girls school. Didn’t coming back home to something like this seem like such a waste?
Secondly, didn’t Mariah just tell everyone last month that she considered herself to be a prude? Who the heck is she wearing all this stuff for?
New Kids Back to the Old Routine
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: D-List, Music, Breaking News, Where Are They Now?,
Sure, I listened to the New Kids on the Block. I was a young girl in the 90s - find me another like myself who didn’t listen to this band. They rocketed to success, blazed a trail for all the boy bands which came after them, and sold 70 million albums while swinging their legs back and forth and wearing ripped-up jeans. I mean, what says superstars quite like that?
Now they’re all almost forty, and they’re going to attempt to do it (or…something sort of like it) again. Honestly, plainly, I’ve never been into aging rockers. I admire bands like The Rolling Stones and performers like Paul McCartney and sure I think they’re great, but there’s also something a little sad about almost-geriatric singers still playing an electric guitar (don’t believe me? Did you see the Super Bowl halftime show?).
