Jackie Chan Praises Jaden Smith in 'The Karate Kid'

Not just contented being Will Smith's son, 11 year old Jaden Smith is carving out a name for himself after snagging the lead role in the updated version of the 1984 cult hit movie The Karate Kid. Yes, he will be taking the role that Ralph Macchio went famous for. And, Jackie Chan will play as his mentor in the film.

The 55 year old veteran martial arts superstar was actually impressed with Jaden's dedication and perseverance during the filming. Jackie revealed the young Smith was an eager student not only on set, but when learning about the entire filmmaking process because "he took the training very seriously.... Jaden had a lot of respect for me as his teacher, even off the set. He is as professional as many adult actors who have been in the business for years." The movie takes place in many locations, including the Great Wall of China, where Jackie and the film's fight coordinator Master Wu had the opportunity to share valuable lessons to Jaden. In his interview in People, Jaden shared that he "trained every day for four months with Master Wu. We did a lot of stretching, and Jackie taught me to ask, 'My left or camera left?' That helped.'"

Jaden Smith changed a lot because of the new learned lessons, according to 'Rush Hour' actor Jackie Chan. He added that Will Smith, Jaden's dad, informed him about the things that changed about Jaden: "When he takes his shoes off, he doesn't throw them in the corner, but puts them away neatly!" Well, learning karate really needs discipline and Jaden's out to achieve that!

Megan Fox Buys 1966 Mustang Fastback in eBay for Brian Austin Green

Megan Fox is really foxy when it comes to great deals. The Transformers hot chick just bought a 1966 Mustang Fastback in eBay for her boyfriend Brian Austin Green. The 23 year old actress just happened to surf the auction site when she saw classic red 1966 Mustang Fastback at a reasonable price, although the car needed a lot of repairs.

Megan Fox is so happy with the deal as the car was in good condition and beautiful. She also shared that her mother used to prohibit her from learning how to drive until she was 18 because she used to sneak out of the house most of the time! However, that did not stop Megan from loving cars so much. In an interview with Jay Leno, she admonished: "I used to steal my mom's car all the time when I was like 14 and 15 right before I got my license." Well, look right now, you can drive all you want. Her mom's car was a teal Kia and now you're getting a iconic 1966 Mustang Fastback. Hope you refurbish it much and get it on the street fast.

Hugh Jackman Takes Lead in Robot Film 'Real Steel'

Leaving behind his Wolverine costume, Hugh Jackman is now all set to portray a pivotal role in an upcoming film salvo Real Steel. The 41 year old Australian actor will play a down-in-his-luck boxing promoter where he encounters a life-changing fate on finding a discarded robot he will train to become a boxing star . The film plot will be based on a short story penned by Richard Matheson.

This will be the first offering of the newly re-organized DreamWorks Pictures, where Steven Spielberg and film impresario Stacy Snider are in collaboration, after the film outfit moved away from Paramount in 2008. Film director Shawn Levy described that Real Steel "is a rousing sports movie about a former boxer who can no longer do the only job he's good at, and one particular robot that may be his return to grace." The budget for this film was pegged at $80 million. DreamWorks is said to be very keen on their maiden project with Hugh Jackman and the production will be kicking off in June 2010.

Rachel Uchitel - Mistress in Tiger Woods Affair?

The Tiger Woods cheating wife saga has continued to branch out. Now, it seems the third party involved is a woman named Rachel Uchitel. Mediatakeout says that they got this scoop from National Enquirer. However, with more digging on who Rachel Uchitel is, it seems we figured that this rumor is somewhat unreliable and too schmaltzy if true. Major drama if this is confirmed.

Rachel Uchitel (the woman in white blazer) is the same woman that actor David Boreanaz has allegedly cheated his wife on while she was pregnant. If the Tiger Woods affair with Rachel Uchitel is true, then are they sharing the same mistress? Eew... For where ever these rumours about the Tiger Woods affair are heading, then let's just pretend it's not true for now. Unless more reliable sources will spill the beans on it, we're still not buying the National Enquirer's scoop.

Tiger Woods Affair - Is Tiger Cheating on Wife Elin Nordegren

Tiger Woods has been known to have a solid relationship with his 29 year old wife Elin Nordegren. The couple has two children Sam and Charlie. However, recent reports convey that there's a Tiger Woods affair going and he and his wife are allegedly in the brink of divorce. No credible source yet has emerged but it seems so many people are looking into the Tiger Woods affair in search engines.

Tiger Woods wife has not yet spoken on the issue, as well as the golf superstar. Last November 21, the couple together with their kids were seen in Stanford University as Tiger Woods was inducted in the university's Athletic Hall of Fame. In fact, he was booed in the said event. Was this because of the Tiger Woods affair? Here's the controversial video of Tiger Woods being booed at his own university:

Michelle Obama Offensive Image - First Lady Portrayed as Chimpanzee

There's an intense brouhaha now that refers to Michelle Obama offensive image found in the search engines. We've searched for the offensive image now but it seems it has now been removed. The image below, as you can see, represents the First Lady photoshopped into looking like a chimpanzee. This was posted by a blogspot blog titled "Hot Girls" and the site has also deleted the controversial image because people are now up in arms because of the "offensive" photos.

In fact, Google received a complaint in their help forums last week that prompted an employee to delete this offensive photo. Allegedly, the Michelle Obama offensive image is now up again with an explanation saying that “Sometimes Google search results from the Internet can include disturbing content, even from innocuous queries. We assure you that the views expressed by such sites are not in any way endorsed by Google." If you want to see the site that initiated this you can find it HERE.

Prince William Going Bald (PHOTOS)

Prince William used to be the hottest bachelor around. That was about five years ago, but now it seems age is not gracefully coinciding with his looks. Last Saturday (November 21), he was snapped by paparazzi as Prince William leaves Raffles Nightclub in London after spending some gracious time with his friends. Look closely at the photos below to see whether you'll still find Prince William hot like the old days.

Is this too much testosterone or Prince William is now getting what his genes are really made out for? We hope his girlfriend Kate Middleton would not mind his going bald. Looks like having no hair will be his luck over time. Or he can take hair implants to make him look gorgeous for everyone. Whatever! Prince William is just 27 years old and having this kind of hair makes him look like his 20 years older. Get implants, please?

Shauna Sand-Chace Crawford Romance?

Former Playboy model and Lorenzo Lamas ex-wife Shauna Sand sort of revealed that she and Gossip Girl hunk Chace Crawford became lovers when he was still 18. That was in 2003, when Chace was still a college freshman and Shauna said they met at a college party in Malibu. In an interview with Star Magazine, Shauna stated that: "He was so incredibly beautiful - I immediately fell in love with him!" Although there's a 14 years age gap between them, Shauna revealed Chace didn't mind dating her: "I even gave him a key to my apartment."

Shauna Sand has even the chutzpah to reveal about the intimacies that happened between her and Chace Crawford. The 28 year old mother of three daughters shared that she and Chace often had you-know-what. To support Shauna's intimate revelations, a close friend the Gossip Girl hottie testified: "Chace told me, 'Shauna was the first girl I ever had s*x with! She blew my mind, and I'll never forget it!'" If this true, ...Eeew, Chace! The two continued to date on and off for a year before breaking up. Chace Crawford was unavailable to comment on this yet because he's busy shooting for Gossip Girl and training for his upcoming film, Footloose.

Penelope Cruz Wedding Set on December

For the longest time, Penelope Cruz has been evading questions regarding her engagement to actor Javier Bardem. Now, it seems that the couple have already decided on their wedding plans this December because Penelope Cruz has been sighted shopping for a wedding gown in the House of Balenciaga. In Touch Weekly initiated the wedding speculation by interviewing a close friend of Penelope who informed that the pair may walk down the aisle "over the holidays." No exact date has been released though.

The source further said that the 35 year old Spanish actress has a very conservative Catholic family and they are the ones pushing for them to get married already: "Javier would like to take things slowly, but Penelope wants to make her parents happy". Since both Penelope and Javier are from Spain, they insisted on having a Spanish designer for them, No exact details for the wedding has been released to the press but we wish the couple all the best for their wedding.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Donated $6.8 million to Charity

Megastar couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie is so generous that all their donations last year to charity amounted to a whopping $6.8 million via their Jolie-Pitt Foundation. In the research made by The Hollywood Reporter, the Jolie-Pitt Foundation gathered $13 million in 2008 and over half of that sum was given back to good causes. They based these findings on the 2008 tax returns copy they acquired for the charity both the couple had established.

There are various charity groups that benefited from these donations. One of them is the Global Health Council, a group which tasked itself to alleviate the spread of disease globally, received $2 million from the Brad and Angelina. Brad Pitt's own Make It Right Foundation and the Human Rights Watch were each granted $1 million from the celebrity pair. All other donations include The Armed Services YMCA of the US Army, who were given $500,000, schools in Brad Pitt's hometown in Springfield, Missouri, which received $50,000, and around $1 million were donated to several development projects in Cambodia, where their eight-year-old adopted son Maddox hailed from. That's quite a stellar act from the Hollywood couple and we hope Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie continue their charitable endeavors for the less fortunate.

Mariah Carey Gets Her First Acting Award for 'Precious'

Despite Mariah Carey was rammed by critics for her acting debut in her 2001 film Glitter, she now gets her redemption that she can act in the film Precious. Aside from the top acclaims of 'Precious', the 21st Annual Palm Springs International Film Festival has decided to give Mariah Carey a Breakthrough Performance Award. Although the top-selling diva just portrayed a supporting role in the film, Mariah's acting shines well in the film as she completely transformed herself from a glamorous music icon to a forthright social worker by playing Ms. Weiss in 'Precious.'

No, don't look down on this award because previous Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson, Marion Cotillard and Freida Pinto all got this award and their films were honored in the Academy Awards later. Mariah Carey just got back from a wacky appearance in a UK TV show GMTV, where she gamely acted out a diva-like behavior by insisting to bring her own toilet paper while in the show. Nice one, Mariah! We hope you can do more film roles if ever you snatch the best supporting actress award in the 2010 Oscars!

Robert Pattinson Misses Home

His unprecedented rise to stardom has brought Robert Pattinson to be homesick. In fact, the Twilight star has just spent less than a day in his home in Britain this year. He was quite vocal about how he was sad leaving his friends and family in such a short period. That was the hardest part he had to fulfill this year.

With the full throttle promotions of The Twilight Saga: New Moon and the shooting of Breaking Dawn on side, Robert Pattinson's hectic work schedule naturally has its downsides: he never gets time to relax at home in London. Rob shared that: "A week ago, perhaps for 16 hours. That was the first time at home in eleven months." What he did was meet his friends: "Some of them I haven't seen for more than a year, and I saw my parents and sisters. To go away from them after such a short time was the hardest thing I had to do in months."

In quite a nostalgic mood, Robert informed that: "I had the best time of my life (in London). I only had a tiny apartment but there were always friends hanging around. Usually five or six people have been staying with me. It felt so wonderfully unconventional. That was the life I had always been dreaming of. A bit crazy but adequate for a young actor." Being known as Edward Cullen has been quite disconcerting for him because everywhere he goes he gets recognized. In an interview with Gala magazine in Germany, Robert Pattinson stated that he loves to travel and learn about cities and its people but, at present, he says he couldn't go nowhere "without having the feeling of being watched 24/7. I do not like this feeling". In time, you'll get used to all that attention, Rob. Don't get to fussy about being famous.

Kris Allen & Adam Lambert in Billboard Cover

American Idol 8 top dogs Kris Allen and Adam Lambert makes on the latest Billboard magazine cover. The clincher is that, although the 24 year old American Idol winner seems to be highlighted on the cover, more articles are dedicated to his runner up Adam Lambert. In fact, Adam has a special feature there about the squeeze put upon him to be a role model for gay youth. Or his latest gigs he garnered like his song being featured on the movie 2012, working with Lady Gaga and his planned tour.

In his own interview with Billboard, Kris explains that he will find it "fun to write" songs with fellow singer Adele. Although he's still new in the music business, Kris Allen is bent in making it good in this industry. Anyway, I think it's really fine for Kris that Adam is more showcased in this issue. Here are the videos of their interview:

Robert Pattinson Shirtless New Moon Scene Felt Like 'Striptease'

Robert Pattinson can't hide his being overwhelmed that he had to take his shirt off for Twilight Saga: New Moon. According to Rob, the scene is like him doing 'striptease' in the New Moon set. He was quoted saying at the Parade website he "felt pretty goofy stepping out into the sunlight in front of 2,000 people in a town square" while ripping his shirt off: "I was essentially doing a striptease".

Although he's quite vocal about his indifference, he was surprised about the reaction of people seeing him shooting the scene. He said that the irony of it was that it's one of the moments where he really "felt closest to people's attachment to Edward (Cullen". The 23 year old British actor revealed that: "There were so many extras in that scene who were 'Twilight' fans who had flown in just to be a part of it. It was quite uplifting and it was also very nerve-wracking." Essentially, he is quite embarrassed showing his body compared to the buffed Taylor Lautner. He joked that he was "resentful" of Taylor being muscular and all. Robert Pattinson reacted that: "I didn't see Taylor until just a little bit before we started shooting. I had the same reaction as everybody else. Its like, 'Jeez, now I have to go to the gym.'" In fact, Rob has to have his body in for a “make-up” in order for it look ‘defined’ on-screen. Oh well, forget the gym – girls love your body for the way it is, anyway!

Johnny Depp is People's Sexiest Man Alive 2009, Not Robert Pattinson

People magazine changed its mind. Because of the Robert Pattinson Sexiest Man Alive 2009 cover leak (or is it a fake one?), they chose the 46 year old Pirates of the Caribbean star Johnny Depp over the 23 year old Twilight hottie to become this year's top choice. Depp earned another feat for being this year's choice for People's Sexiest Man Alive because he's the first guy who won twice in the same decade.

Johnny Depp, who also won in 2003, now joins the ranks of Brad Pitt (1995 and 2000) and George Clooney (1997 and 2006) who have been two-time winners of this controversial title from People. This is quite a surprising win for Johnny because he's not very visible this and yet he's still accorded with the 2009 Sexiest Man Alive award. Is it because he's the current highest paid Hollywood actor for his almost $35 million pay in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides due to be shown on 2011? People magazine editor Julie Jordan admitted that they had a hard time deciding over Robert Pattinson and Johnny Depp - in the end, longevity in show business that mattered.

Miley Cyrus Not Watching New Moon

Teen superstar Miley Cyrus is very vocal about her hate over the fuss that her fellow teens are pouring over the Twilight series. Miley insists that she doesn't believe in vampires and you can't even drag her to watch New Moon, Twilight's second installment. Ironically, Miley Cyrus recently signed with Twilight producers Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey to star in in Wings - fantasy movie which is similar in plot with the immensely popular vampire franchise.

Miley Cyrus explained that she does not get all the vampire craziness going on and why people got hooked with a simple story about a school girl who falls in love with a male vampire. The Hannah Montana star added: "I've never seen it and I never will. I don't believe in it. I don't like vampires. I don't like the wolf that pops out of the screen when I'm watching my TV at night. I don't like it. I don't want anything to do with it. I don't like the shirts. I don't like any of it." Although the 16 year old singer-actress feels "really lame" that everyone's excited over New Moon's scheduled showing this weekend, she said that: "I'm like, 'Don't even talk about it.'"

 

Maybe she's just jealous she's not in it. What kind of teenage girl would nor want to see Edward Cullen? Oh well, may be she likes her men toned like her ex-boyfriend Justin Gaston.

Janet Jackson Spills Breakup From Boyfriend Jermaine Dupri

Pop star Janet Jackson accidentally unveiled her recent split from erstwhile boyfriend Jermaine Dupri in an Atlanta radio interview. In the 'The Bert Show', Janet referred to Jermaine as her "ex" that affirmed the rumored rocky state of their relationship since July. According to Janet, she didn't keep in touch with any of her ex-lovers apart from Jermaine.

In her words, Janet Jackson insisted that: "I'm not the type of girl that stays in touch with your ex like that. But Jermaine is one of my best friends. I love him to death. We're still connected. We're still good friends. We still talk." It was during the wake of Michael Jackson that she and the 37 year old music executive had decided that they need to end their 7 year relationship. The 43 year old singer pointed out that the reason for their breakup is that she already felt "suffocated". A friend of the couple lamented that: "You shouldn't mix business with pleasure. Janet felt their lives were too crossed and they should have kept things separate." All they need is time to be away from each other and to move in separate directions. It was Jermaine who produced several tracks from Janet's last two albums. That's why she felt Jermaine has become too involved in all aspects of her life and she needs a rest from all that.

Johnny Depp Becomes Hollywood's Highest Paid Actor in Pirates 4

There's no stopping Johnny Depp to become the highest paid Hollywood actor because he just got a good deal from the fourth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean. Since his co-stars Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom had begged off in doing Pirates of the Caribbean 4, Disney bosses jacked up his fee to $35.4 million (£21 million) just to get him to play Captain Jack Sparrow all over again. With this humongous fee, Johnny outgrossed all other Hollywood bigwigs like Mel Gibson, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks and Brad Pitt on his payday windfall.

This $35.4 million fee is just the minimum actually because the Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides because the film is expected to be a huge box-office hit. If it will hit it big on 2011 when it is shown, Johnny Depp could receive more bonus. Penelope Cruz is set to play Johnny's leading lady for this film, while Geoffrey Rush retains his role as Captain Barbossa. Good luck, Johnny! May you be able to share your huge earnings to the less fortunate through your charities! Of course, you also vowed to help your friend Nicholas Cage to pay off his debt. That should do it!

Rhap Salazar in Ellen DeGeneres Show

Rhap even garnered 4 other gold medals in the said event.

Below is Rhap's winning performance in WCOPA:

Robert Pattinson Sexiest Man Alive for 2009 in People Magazine

Move over, Hugh Jackman! People magazine has crowned its new Sexiest Man Alive 2009 in the person of Twilight hottie Robert Pattinson. As usual, Rob is still in hesitation whether he really deserved this recognition. But, as the millions of Team Edward would see it, the 23 year old British young actor is certainly the rightful owner of that title this year.

With the huge worldwide success of the new Twilight installment New Moon, there's no doubt about the crazy popularity that this guy is getting. In an interview for Entertainment Weekly, Robert Pattinson joked that it is his hair that made "75 percent" of his performance as Edward Cullen. Robert also stated some fight scenes he'll be doing in the third installment, Breaking Dawn. Anyway, he obviously beat out the more ripped co-star Taylor Lautner in the quest as the 2009 Sexiest Man Alive. Last year, it was Wolverine star Hugh Jackman who was declared as the Sexiest Man Alive.

Robert Pattinson Surprised at the Extent of What Twi-Hard Fans Would Do

Robert Pattinson has just seen much about how obsessed the Twilight fanatics can get. Lately, Rob has seen fans travel from the other side of the world just to see him shoot a "dying scene" of Edward Cullen in their new installment New Moon. This scene had to be shot in Italy, where his character Edward will expose himself in the sunlight. When fans heard this, some trooped all the way to Italy just to take a glimpse at this momentous scene.

The 23 year old British actor explained that the scene was shot in "a town square in Italy and it was the closest moment I came to realizing the fan attachment to this character. People from around the world heard about the filming and flew into that town square to see Edward Cullen die. Most wanted to stop him from taking that one step into the light. Honestly, I felt this weight of anticipation and the responsibility to the fans who are obsessed with these stories." RPattz has quintessentially been vocal about how he struggled to cope with his humongous fame and is now trying not to lose his cool about. In fact, Robert Pattinson admits that he gets paranoid sometimes. Yet, he mentioned that he's beginning to stop whining about the craziness of the fame he's getting because he can virtually do nothing about it.

Tom Cruise Wants Katie Holmes as Villain in Next 'Mission: Impossible'

Tom Cruise is not into cheesy love stories when dreaming for a role Katie Holmes. What he wants for his 30 year old wife to play opposite him is a villain in the fourth installment of the Mission: Impossible movie. Playing secret agent Ethan Hunt is one of Tom Cruise's signature roles in his career and it's important for him to have Katie on the set. But the 47 year old actor is not asking for them to play as a couple but he wants her as his main nemesis.

A reliable informant claimed that "Tom is very excited about taking 'Mission: Impossible' in a new direction and he sees Katie as a big part of that." After being married for quite a while, Tom and Katie have been meaning to "work together" but they don't want a "romantic comedy" because they find it "a bit dull". With MI4 in the works, "this might give them a chance to have some fun both as a couple and as hero and villainess". Katie herself is also looking forward about doing this project as she loves "bringing her home life into her acting roles". Katie informed that she loves playing different characters with her three year old daughter Suri. Mission: Impossible 4 is expected to be shown in the later part of 2010.

Carrie Underwood & Boyfriend Mike Fisher Plans on Living Together

Singer Carrie Underwood is getting really serious with Mike Fisher. Reports say that the 26 year old former American Idol winner had she already said 'yes' to her hockey player beau when he asked her to "move in with her". Although Carrie had not yet revealed the juioy details regarding this issue, but OK! Magazine had already printed that: "Mike asked her to move in, and she said yes ... She's on the road a lot and can't commit fully, but she did clear out space in his closet and stock his kitchen with her favorites."

Carrie Underwood boyfriend Mike Fisher is playing for the team Ottawa Senators. Carrie has been very vocal about her love for Mie. In fact, when she won the ACM Entertainer of the Year Award last April, she credited him for all the success she's having. In her album, Carrie Underwood recently referred to Mike using his jersey number: "Thank you #12. You are the most amazing addition to my life! You are such a wonderful person and have had such an amazing hand in the building of this album and in the growth of me as a person. I love you so much! You make my life better in every way! I thank God for you every day". The couple have already talked regarding marriage and it seems both their families have approved of their blooming relationship.

David Beckham Hearts America

David Beckham prefers having to retire in the United States than in his homeland, Great Britain. The 34 year old soccer superstar expressed his intention to stay in the US after he quits the sport and live a "normal" life in Beverly Hills together with Posh Spice wife Victoria Beckham and his kids.

In an interview, David Beckham reasoned out that: "We have a normal life (in the US). I can see us living here for a few years." The couple, together with their three kids Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, seven, and four-year-old Cruz have been enjoying a relatively anonymous lifestyle in the US. Beckham has been staying in Los Angeles since 2007 when he was enlisted by the LA Galaxy team.

 

In the same vein, Victoria cannot help but agree with her husband. The singer-turned-fashion designer reckoned that she finds Spain "a little tricky" because it's difficult there for women to establish herself in the society. But in America, Victoria informed that: "From the minute we landed at the airport, we were equal. America is equal, it doesn't matter whether you are a man or a woman." Sadly, David will be away for six months in Italy after signing up for soccer giants AC Milan. David admitted that he hates being apart from his family. He said: "Anyone who knows me knows how I feel about my children, about my wife and my family and I hate being away from them."

Rihanna Loves Feasting on Fatty Food

Rihanna is simply not hard to feed! For her Rated R album launch in London on Monday (November 16), the Russian Roulette singer requested calorie-rich food that totaled to over 7,000 calories! All she wanted were pizza, fries, doughnuts, crisps, microwave lasagnas, fried noodles, chicken drumsticks and an apple. The concert organizers were thankful that Rihanna did not request hard-to-obtain food. One source admonished that: "When it comes to the big US stars, we're used to getting ridiculously healthy requests. Rihanna was a breath of fresh air. There was none of this carb and gluten-free nonsense!"

So how does this 21 year old diva from Barbados keep herself slim and trim despite her taste for fatty food? Rihanna just explained that she does not watch her weight because performing keeps her from accumulating those unwanted pounds. It is also during these "concert tours" that keeps Rihanna in shape. She said: "Being on tour gets you in shape which is good considering how I eat pretty much whatever I can get my hands on. You perform for an hour and a half so you can work some of it off at least. But not all of it!" Last Monday (November 11), she spent more than $50,000 on flying her family to New York for them to attend her acceptance of the Woman of the Year award from Glamour magazine. We're sure a feast of fatty food followed as they celebrated her win of that prestigious award!

Angelina Jolie: 4th Adoption is a Child from Syria

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie already has six children in tow. Three of their kids had been adopted from different parts of the world, while the other three are Brad and Angie's biological children. Now, Angie is again on her adopting spree as she is reported to be set on achieving her 4th adoption bid for a child from Syria. Unfortunately, 45 year old Inglorious Basterds actor is not very keen on this idea. Even without Brad's full support, Angelina is said to be taking the proceedings of her own.

A close friend of the couple revealed that Brad "made it clear that six children are more than he can handle". Adopting more "seemed ludicrous", yet Angelina Jolie is "determined to complete her rainbow family". A confirmation from the Immigration and Naturalization Service in Washington D.C. revealed that "only Angelina's name was on the adoption papers." Angelina Jolie became famous after she made her first adoption in 2001 of Maddox, her eldest child, who is from Cambodia. The Academy Award winning actress did this while still married to Billy Bob Thornton, although legally she was his only parent. After her separation from Thornton, Angie adopted Zahara from Ethiopia in 2005. This was the time she and Brad were already living together. Brad agreed to become the legal father of both children. In May 2006, the couple then had their first biological child, Shiloh. Come March 2007, they adopted Pax - now five - who is from Vietnam. I bet many of you there wants to get adopted by the superstar couple. It's just sad that Brad Pitt might be in the edge because of Angie's adoption spree!

Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel: Just Friends With Benefits?

After two and a half years of being a couple, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have remained friends after they parted ways last September. However, the former N'Sync member would still want Jessica by his side no matter what and he wants to meet her regularly. The 28 year old Timberlake obviously cannot take a serious relationship with the 27 year old former 7th Heaven actress because he can't date other people whenever he wants.

For Justin's weird reasoning, Jessica Biel did not take it lightly. According to a source, "once she (Jessica) calmed down and they started talking again, he convinced her to stay friends who hook up, without all the pressure of a relationship. Justin gets the best of both worlds. He doesn't have to lose Jess as a lover or a friend, but he's free to explore other relationships." So it appears, Jessica wants to settle down and Justin Timberlake does not - so the breakup was inevitable. Justin Timberlake is currently busy filming The Social Network, which is a film based on the founding of the popular website, Facebook.

Madonna & Jesus Luz Heading Down the Aisle?

Lots of speculation abound when pop queen Madonna has decided to finally meet the parents of her 23 year old Brazilian boytoy Jesus Luz. The 51 year old pop superstar is now heading to Brazil in order to visit Cristiane Regina da Silva and Luis Heitor Pinto da Luz - the mother and father of Jesus Luz respectively. Is this visit a prelude to a big engagement party afterwards or Madonna just wanna hang out with her boyfriend’s mother who's four years younger than her?

Isn't it weird if Jesus and Madonna will get married the mother of the groom is younger than the bride? Anyway, Madonna is still thinking over about taking Jesus seriously at this point in her life. On the contrary, the Brazilian model wants to secure his relationship with the pop singer. In an interview, a friend of the couple revealed that Madonna does not deny she loves and needs Jesus Luz. Growing up a Christian, Jesus "wants to marry and be taken seriously. She doesn't want to lose Jesus and so the visit to his parents is her way of saying she will make this relationship permanent. He wants proof of commitment and he wants her to make an honest man of him." It can be remembered that Madonna would rather be "hit by a train" than marry again. Yet, it appears she is about to change her mind and is now telling her close pals that marrying Jesus is "on the table" as part of her future plans. When will we hear the pealing of wedding bells?

John Mayer Defends Britney Spears Lip Synching in Australia Concert

Britney Spears is really upset that her Australian fans are issuing their complaints regarding her lip synching in her concert in Perth last Friday (November 6). After just three songs, angry fans started to storm out of the venue because they thought the tickets they bought between $182 and $1370 was not worth it because she was lip synching! Good thing, Britney gained an ally in the person of John Mayer. The 31 year old Mayer was also in Australia to promote his album. He said in his Twitter that: "If you're shocked that Britney was lip-synching at her concert and want your money back, life may continue to be hard for you."

Fans were outraged because of the high ticket prices and the 'impersonal' treatment of Britney Spears herself. The 27 year old Womanizer singer did not even complement Perth as the venue but she gave a generic welcome saying: 'What's up Australia?' What's up with that, Britney? It's simply rude not to mention the city you're in when greeting your audience. That's just too lame.

 

Proof to this, a Britney Spears fan named Wendy Di Renzo lamented that the concert "was so impersonal" and Britney did not even bother to interact properly with her audience. What's worse is that "there were no big TV screens projecting the action, so if you didn't know Britney, you might have even doubted it was her". Another angry fan blurted out that: "I want my money back or I want her to sing properly. The ticket cost me $200 and she lip-synched the whole thing". Because of these, politicians in Australia are now trying to enact a law that will force music promoters to inform people whether a concert will be live or lip-synched beforehand. Britney, you better be good because you're going in Melbourne for another concert on November 11!

Robert Pattinson Likes Weirdo Roles

Although he's like the hottest Hollywood heartthrob to date, Robert Pattinson is not digging that 'hot item' that he is in reality when it comes to his movie roles. In fact, Rob has this penchant to do weirdo roles. The Twilight star says that he's attracted to the unorthodox roles that he plays. Aside from being that love struck vampire Edward Cullen, Robert Pattinson also played the eccentric painter Salvador Dali in Little Ashes and he also portrayed an out-of-the-box musician in How To BE. The reason for his preference for weirdo roles, RPattz explained, is that he can then blame any criticisms of his performance on the character's personality.

That's quite a good excuse if he makes a bad performance in these movies! Robert Pattinson mentioned:"When you play a weirdo you always have an excuse - 'He's a weirdo'. I was a weirdo in The Haunted Airman and I just changed my opinion about everything." Robert also recounted how disappointed he was that his appearance in Vanity Fair was cut and he only noticed it upon watching the screening itself. Rob recounted that: "Tom Sturridge and I had scenes right next to each other (in Vanity Fair) and it was our first jobs. We went to the screening and we thought the whole thing was a joke anyway, because we had no idea what we were doing. We watched Tom's scene and were like, 'Yeah, that's pretty good' and then I was sitting there going, 'Ummm really?' No one had told me that I had been cut out?" Don't worry RPattz, right now - all your appearances are being in the center of everything for Team Edward.

Kim Kardashian Gets Black Eye After Charity Boxing Match

Poor Kim Kardashian! She just wanted to give to charity and now she's nursing a black eye from it. Kim did not realize that the girl she will be fighting with had hands made to land on her face. Kim exclaimed that: "My girl was a good sport, but she was tough! I knew I had to do it for charity, since that's what it was all about, but man, my girl could throw a punch!" Luckily, she’s okay now and needs concealer to hide what’s happened to her left eye.

It appears that Kim was not only the Kardashian family member who got punched black and blue. Her brother Rob Kardashian was brought to the hospital for the concussion he obtained. The supposed to be "friendly" boxing match of Rob went crazy when someone from the crowd got into the ring - that person was a trained fighter! Kim recounted that:

At one point Rob's mask fell off and when he put his hands down he got hit in the face and ended up in hospital with a concussion.

Rob's a strong guy and can definitely hold his own, but he wasn't expecting to get hit after his mask had fallen off! This guy just got really down and dirty!

The charity event was held in order for the Kardashian family to obtain bids from the public to fight with them for charity. The winning bidders was supposed to be weighed in and that apparently did not happen. Because of what Kim and Rob got, sister Khloe Kardashian and the boyfriend of her other sister Kourtney, Scott Disick, withdrew from their scheduled fights. Next time, the Kardashian family should think of other charity event ideas that won't get them black and blue afterwards!

K-Stew has just this to say to all of the burning questions fired at her: "I probably would've answered it if people hadn't made such a big deal about it."

Jessica Simpson-Grand Ole Opry Gets Love from Dolly Parton

Jessica Simpson made some stir in Grand Ole Opry when she appeared so busty in her debut last year. Some Grand Ole Opry fans were too conscious about Jessica's bumpers that one fan even commented in People magazine that "she must have some clothes on". Today, with the Jessica Simpson Grand Ole Opry issue, she gets some love from Dolly Parton, who's also a double-D just like her. Dolly, through her tweets, understood what Jessica feels about having big chests.

For Dolly, she sure gained a trademark for her bosoms that they "served her well". She quipped that: "I don't know if I'm supporting them or they're supporting me. But of course I've had them jacked up a bit. And they're part of the persona. It always takes a bit of pressure off me". Oh well, that's a BIG problem indeed for them as they are constantly in back pain because of it. Below is the controversial Jessica Simpson Grand Ole Opry debut below:

It is said that the former Spice Girls member adored the two pigs which David Beckham named Pinky and Perky, based on popular characters in a children's TV show.

Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin to host Oscars 2010

For the first time since 1929, two people will host the Oscar Awards on March 7, 2010. Yes, comedian Steve Martin and '30 Rock' star Alec Baldwin were tapped to be co-hosts for the 82nd Academy Awards. This star-studded ceremony is expected to draw millions of viewers and both comedians are ecstatic that they were chosen.

For Steve, it is his third time to be at the forefront of the said affair. He snapped a joke that: "I am happy to co-host the Oscars with my enemy Alec Baldwin." Alec Baldwin, on the other hand, is a neophyte at this duty. Cognizant of Steve's musical abilities, Alec snapped back that: "I don't play the banjo but I'm thrilled to be hosting the Oscars - it's the opportunity of a lifetime." Oscars producers Adam Shankman and Bill Mechanic informed that they are happy with the duo and the team of Steve and Alec is a "perfect pair" that will add excitement at the 2010 Oscars. As early as right now, there are many bets flying for the nominations. Meryl Streep is said to be a shoo-in for Julie and Julia, while George Clooney is also a frontrunner for Up in the Air. After the shame of Glitter, Mariah Carey is bound to be happy this time because her critically-acclaimed film Precious is up in the running for Best Picture next year.

Robert Pattinson Feels Like Blob

If there's a Halloween costume that Robert Pattinson might be wearing, it's not Dracula. This is because RPattz, who's often voted as Hollywood's sexiest men, feels like he's a cartoon character and feels like that bloated X-men villain The Blob. This is the reason for his being astonished that girls really like him and how he get booked for modeling assignments before. Robert disparaged himself: "I look like an idiot - one of my legs is slightly longer than the other. I was such a terrible model. I was really tall but still looked like a six-year-old." Admittedly, these insecurities about his looks make it difficult for him to cope with his intense popularity as one of Hollywood's biggest stars.

Robert further explained that he's "unbearably self-conscious about stuff" and he's "trying not to drown" with all the attention he's getting: "I guess I'm not the type of guy cut out to do a franchise. I'm not much of a crowd person." In fact, Robert Pattinson mentioned that it was Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke who worked hard to make him that attractive as Edward Cullen. In an interview for Vanity Fair, director Hardwicke said: "They called me up and they literally said, 'Catherine, do you think you can make this guy look good?' So I said, 'Here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to get his hair back to a different color, do a different style. He would work with a trainer from now on. My cinematographer is great with lighting. He will study the cheekbones, and I promise you, we'll make the guy look good." That's a good thing though, Robert Pattinson and his reluctance that he looks cute may be the key why girls love even him more than those self-conscious muscled hunky stars.

Taylor Swift Experiencing SNL Jitters

Taylor Swift is said to be very nervous about her first foray into hosting the Saturday Night Live (SNL) on November 7. The 19 year old country singer has been brewing up some ideas for the show and she's all worried that she might have "a heart attack". Her anxiousness is even publicized in her Twitter page: "Starting the SNL process I kinda feel like I might have a heart attack or pass out in the pitch meeting. I'm that excited (sic)." Taylor, who's rumored to be dating Twilight hunk Taylor Lautner, is said to be getting back at Kanye West, just for laughs, for that controversial interruption he made during her acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.

Despite all the jitters, Taylor Swift is taking up the task seriously as she is preparing for her gig like a pro. Taylor informed: "I try to prepare for everything beyond the extent of preparation. So I have all these ideas for skits. I'm probably gonna walk in there with 35 ideas." Right now, we're excited how she will handle the hilarious skits about that Kanye thing and of course the Taylor Lautner dating thing. Although Taylor Swift is maintaining a "clean-cut" image, she voiced out she's just a regular person: "Sometimes people are fascinated by the fact that I don't care about partying, almost to the point where they think it's weird. I think when we get to the point where it's strange for you not to be stumbling around high on something at 19, it's a warped world." Will Taylor Lautner make a special appearance in this SNL episode? We’ll see that on Saturday!
