Singer Fergie Denies Pregnancy
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Television, Engagements, Pregnancies, Photos, Rumors,
Pregnancy rumors for Fergie have been coming non-stop ever since she became engaged last year. But recent pictures of her (like the one above) looking a bit puffier than normal really got the news hounds wondering. Could that bump be a baby bump?
Well according to the singer herself, no. In an interview with Extra, she explains why the media is so ready to believe the gossip is true: “I’m 5’4”, when I gain a couple of extra pounds—it shows. People just like to speculate.”
The singer goes on to say that she would actually like to get married to actor Josh Duhamel before anything like that happens. Marriage before pregnancy? Wow - that’s one I haven’t heard in a while!

3G iPhone ordered by Apple?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Broadband, Smartphones, Handhelds, Rumors,
We’ve all been expecting Apple to release a 3G version of the iPhone at some point during this year. It turns out, it may be coming sooner rather than later. Ken Dulaney, analyst for Gartner, is saying that he has heard from sources over in Asia that Apple has placed an order for 10 million 3G iPhones. Even more interesting is that these would be 10 million on top of the current 10 million that Apple hopes to sell of the current iPhone version in 2008. If this is true, we’d expect to hear about it within the next few months. Maybe around the time that the iPhone 2.0 firmware upgrade is released, hmm?
Dulaney also mentioned that the 3G version of the iPhone may use an OLED screen, which would result in an improvement in battery life. Hey, if Apple went with EDGE for the current iPhone due to battery issues, it would make sense that in their leap to 3G, they’d try and conserve as much battery life as possible, right?
While we won’t know for sure when we will see a 3G model of the iPhone, I personally believe it is a safe bet that we will be seeing one within the next few months. The iPhone is nine months old, and while it is still a marvel, 9 months is a long time to go in the cell phone industry without seeing an upgrade. Apple also knows that 3G is a glaring omission from the current model. After all, there was a collective groan heard around the tech world when it was introduced back at MacWorld 2007 due to it’s lack of 3G. Even 14 months ago it was a huge letdown. Too much time has passed since then.
Bottom line, if you are in the market for an iPhone, but aren’t in the “need to have it now” mindset, you may want to wait a while.

SATC Scandal: Charlotte, Say It Isn’t So
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Television, Photos, Sex Tapes, Breaking News,
A single photo, a brief article, and suddenly the SATC has hit the fan. One journalist is reporting that a pornographic tape of Sexy star Kristin Davis (who plays Charlotte in the Sex and the City franchise) not only exists, but is currently being shopped around for a buyer. With enough money, anyone can own the tape which will soon (purportedly) be making the rounds on the Internet. If such a tape exists.
Here are the facts of the story, things I’ve seen with my own eyes: One, the article talking about the tape does exist. Two, there is a photograph of a woman who looks exceedingly like Davis in a sexually explicit pose with an unknown gentleman. Three, Kristin Davis denies everything. One of her reps had this to say: “This is not a photo of Kristin Davis. There is no sex tape.”
This is not impossible to believe, and I’ll tell you why. There are people in the world who look like other people - whether through accident or design. In fact, there’s an entire reality TV show based on the concept of “ordinary” people who just happen to look like celebs. But, I will also say this - I’ve personally seen the photo, and it looks like her. A lot. For what it’s worth.

Why is Apple stalling Flash on the iPhone?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Smartphones, Editorial, Handhelds, Rumors, Software,
A few weeks ago, we reported that sources revealed to us that Flash on the iPhone was coming soon. At the time, we felt very strongly that the reasons we stated were sound and accurate. Then, a few days ago, Steve Jobs stated that Flash wouldn’t be coming to the iPhone because it was “too slow to be useful” and that Flash Lite was “not capable of being used with the web.”
So we started getting comments on our last entry, like this one, saying that we were wrong. The iPhone 1.1.4 release came and went, as did the iPhone SDK announcement. Nothing from Apple regarding Flash, until Jobs said it was a no go. So we went back to our source, who was - and still is - 100% convinced that these are just stall tactics.

Are Star Jones and Al Reynolds Headed for Divorce?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Divorce,
What do Pam Anderson/Rick Salomon, Liza Minelli/David Gest and Star Jones/Al Reynolds have in common? They were all in marriages no one ever expected to last.
According to the National Enquirer, Star Jones and Al Reynolds are the latest pair heading to splitsville. The former View host and her banker hubby were married back in November 2004 in an over-the-top wedding that attracted many sponsors and much ridicule.
Now, just over a month after the
45-year-old’s latest television project was cancelled, comes news of a possible divorce. While I am often wary of news that comes from this particular tabloid, I must admit it’s been a while since I’ve seen Al attached to his wife’s arm. I mean - where was the old Al who would come out and speak on his wife’s behalf when she’s booted off TV?

Julianne Hough Saving Herself for That Special Person
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Television, Engagements, Rumors,
Anyone who still believes that Julianne Hough had some part in Helio Castroneves’ broken engagement may think differently after hearing this news: she is still a virgin.
The Dancing with the Stars professional has been bogged down with rumors ever since she was paired up with her first athlete, Apolo Ohno. Now the dancer, who is recording her first country album (don’t confuse her with Jessica Simpson, who is also doing the same), is opening up to CosmoGIRL!.
The blonde beauty says that she has made the (admirable) choice to wait until marriage; she believes that decision will only help to “strengthen that relationship.” Wondering why Hough broke off her own engagement last year? She felt she was simply too young.
You’re only 19 years old. I think “young” would be an understatement.

Could Alicia Silverstone Be How I Met Your Mother’s Mystery Woman?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, CBS, Gossip, Rumors,
Based on some fine detective work, TV Guide is speculating that the ‘mother’ of CBS’ How I Met Your Mother may in fact be….Alicia Silverstone.
That educated guess is based the Clueless star’s several episode arc with ‘father’ Ted later this season. (And it’s not like any love interest every sticks around for long on that show.)
If it isn’t Silverstone, let’s hope the writers introduce the mommy quick. If CBS doesn’t renew the show (it’s not yet on the fall schedule), we may never find out.

Twins for Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Hook-ups, Rumors,
No, don’t get excited. Neither celebutante is pregnant with twins - the best friends are dating twins. Personally, I love this. This is why I follow celebrity gossip.
Paris Hilton is now dating Benji Madden (truly, a tragic name), and has been for about three weeks. According to one source, the two are really hitting it off. This works out perfectly, as Nicole Richie is preparing to wed his twin brother, Joel Madden.
I smell a new idea for a reality show in the works…

Is Jenny McCarthy Expecting Jim’s Baby?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television, Pregnancies, Rumors,
Last night on Chelsea Lately, the late-night host revealed a surprising secret. After addressing an organization Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey have been working on, the comedienne sent a special shout out to the Bruce Almighty star:
Unfortunately, as juicy as that tidbit was—it apparently isn’t true. According to McCarthy’s rep, the actress is not pregnant. So why would Chelsea Handler taunt/freak out/panic Carrey like that? The host claims she only meant to be funny.
“Jenny wanted to play a joke on Jim. She’s not really pregnant, but hopefully I am.”
Hmmm….I wonder if she really was lying after all.

Flash on iPhone is just around the corner
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Smartphones, Handhelds, Rumors,
EDIT: The Skyfire browser for iPhone allows you to view Flash video directly on your iPhone.
EDIT: Here are the details on Apple and Adobe collaborating on an iPhone Flash player.
EDIT: Here is an update on the whole Flash on iPhone situation.
We’ve been waiting for Flash support to hit the iPhone ever since…well…it launched. We’ve had to make do without Flash for almost eight months, and YouTube even had to convert a bunch of their catalog to H.264 in order for the service to be enjoyed on the iPhone. Well, we’ve just got word from a reliable source that Flash support is on its way to the iPhone, and it should be coming very, very soon. Speculating a bit further on our own, we are guessing that it would be pretty convenient for Flash support to be introduced alongside the iPhone SDK, wouldn’t you say? Now, we know that there isn’t much information here, but you also know how strong our sources are too - Flash on the iPhone is coming, just take our word for it, okay?
EDIT: We already have had a couple people ask about the supposed battery and CPU issues that were holding Flash back from being included on the iPhone in the first place. From what I am hearing, it was a complete fabrication. Flash has not yet made it to the iPhone solely due to business negotiations. As we said, it is now on its way!
