Fans of U2 will have five different options when it comes to picking up what version of the band's upcoming album No Line on the Horizon they want.
According to Billboard.com, the record will come in the regular CD format and also a double-vinyl version.
However, three additional versions will also be available. A special digi-pack version ($35.98 US) includes the album, 36-page booklet, a poster as well as a film from director Anton Corbijn featuring music from the group.
As well, a magazine version ($49.98 US) contains the album contained in a 60-page "soft cover magazine-style book" and a downloadable version of Corbijn's film.
Finally, a box set edition ($96 US) contains a 60-page hardcover book, two posters and the Corbijn film on DVD.
The group is expected to launch a world tour in support of the record, the band's followup to 2004's How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb.

Katie Holmes loves jungle gyms

Katie Holmes has developed quite a love for childrens playgrounds. Since spending so much time at the park with daughter Suri, she finds herself noticing details that make her want to create a jungle gym herself.
"We were in Berlin and I was impressed with their playgrounds," she told the New York Daily News, femalefirst.co.uk reported.
"It's amazing what you become aware of as a mother. You think, 'Nice wood on that swing set!'" She added: "I've been to the (Home) Depot many times with other moms. I know how to push a cart. I'm not a wimpy girl!"

"I'm not dying"

Through an oddly named spokesman, Michael Jackson released a statement last night denying he is ailing from a rare lung condition and needs to undergo a transplant.

Earlier yesterday, Internet sites around the world picked up a story from In Touch magazine in which author Ian Halperin claimed the King of Pop is suffering from Alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency, a condition that can be fatal.

Halperin is the author of a new unauthorized biography on the 50-year-old pop star.
"He's had (the condition) for years, but it's gotten worse," Halperin told In Touch. "He needs a lung transplant but may be too weak to go through with it. He also has emphysema and chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, which his doctors have had a lot of trouble stopping. It's the bleeding that is the most problematic part. It could kill him."

Halperin also said Jackson "can barely speak" and is 95% blind in his left eye.
But Jackson's "official and sole spokesperson" identified as "Dr. Tohme Tohme" said Jackson is in fine health, and is "finalizing" negotiations with a major entertainment company and TV network for a world tour and series of specials.

"Concerning this author's allegations, we would hope in the future that legitimate media will not continue to be exploited by such an obvious attempt to promote this unauthorized 'biography,' " the statement quotes Tohme as saying.

Santa's A Canadian Citizen?

Santa's a Canadian, according to the federal government.

Jason Kenney, the minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism, has formally awarded Canadian citizenship status to Santa Claus, the government announced Tuesday.
“The Government of Canada wishes Santa the very best in his Christmas Eve duties and wants to let him know that, as a Canadian citizen, he has the automatic right to re-enter Canada once his trip around the world is complete,” Kenney said in an official statement.

Just three weeks ago, the Conservative government proposed legislation to expand the country's sovereignty over Arctic waters. International law at present states that no country has dominion over the North Pole, but the United States, Russia, Norway, Denmark and Canada have been pushing their claim to the area long believed to be the location of Santa's office and residence.

Duff Denies Virgin Claim

It seems Hilary Duff wants to keep her options open.
In an interview that accompanies a saucy photo spread for the men's magazine Maxim January issue, the 21-year-old Duff denies ever saying that she was a virgin. Not that she's saying that she isn't one now, because "that's nobody's business but my own."
Of course, a popstarlet's virtue status can always be in flux but an interview Duff gave to Elle in 2006 appears to be what's stamped her with the letter "V." In the article, Duff was quoted saying, "[Virginity] is definitely something I like about myself. It doesn't mean I haven't thought about sex, because everyone I know has had it and you want to fit in."
So, to catch up, while Duff may or may not be a virgin, she denies ever saying that she was one (According to the New York Daily News, Elle is looking into the matter). Still, regardless of her real or perceived innocence, Duff tells Maxim that wilder stories about her are equally untrue.
"I've been accused by the press of giving lap dances at clubs. I mean, little ol' me?" she says. "And they're so descriptive about these lap dances. I don't even know how to do a lap dance!"

Miley Might Be Coming To Your House

Miley Cyrus will be hosting a New Year's show on MTV. (New Year's Eve)
The MTV network has called upon Miley Cyrus to ring in 2009, reports MTV.com. The network will air a live show called FNMTV Presents: A Miley-Sized Surprise...
The show will broadcast at 8:00pm until 9:30pm, and will include performances by Cyrus, Metro Station, All Time Low, The Academy Is... and Kevin Rudolph.
The special moment of the night will be when Cyrus gives a performance directly from a fan's bedroom.
There will also be a New Year's countdown from Times Square during the rebroadcast of the show at 10:30pm.

OK, that headline was sneaky, but not that sneaky.
Miley Cyrus really will be ringing in the new year in the bedroom of an as-yet-unnamed fan.
In a live, 90-minute special called "FNMTV Presents: A Miley-Sized Surprise," Miley will show up on the doorstep of a charity-minded fan who has spent 2008 helping others in some significant way. See, giving isn’t just for Oprah!
The fan will also get some gifts from Miley, along with some help at the charity of his or her choice. If you’re chosen, Miley will give a performance in your bedroom, and her brother’s band, Metro Station, will as well. (So, if you were charitable in 2008, you might want to make your bed on the 31st.) Happy New Year!

Perry and McCoy ENGAGED!


Katy Perry is reportedly engaged to her long-term boyfriend Travis McCoy after the Gym Class Heroes frontman proposed in Paris.
McCoy, who has been dating the singer since last year, is said to have popped the question during a recent romantic break to the French capital by kissing the star with a diamond ring in his mouth, according to the New York Daily News.
Perry received a yellow diamond promise ring from her partner this summer and was subsequently forced to deny engagement rumors after she was spotted wearing the gem.

Something Missing from Britney's Life?

Just how many sides to Britney Spears' crash, burn and so-called phoenix-like rise are we going to be subjected to? The popster has said her piece in the pages of Glamour and Rolling Stone, and on camera in her MTV documentary "For the Record," while ex-husband Kevin Federline broke "his silence" with a cover story in the latest People.
Now, seemingly just ahead of the long-missing Bit Bit's dog's-eye view of Britney's meltdown and ostensible comeback, the "Circus" warbler's mom, Lynne, is offering her take on the situation as she promotes her book, "Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World."
"I think Britney's happy in most ways: very happy with her kids and ecstatic about work, but there's something missing in her life," Mama Spears tells the London Daily Mail. "That gut belief she had in herself when she was so young -- that's what's missing, and she's got to get that back."
(Also missing: Britney's ability to make any decisions for herself, a responsibility that's being handled by her dad -- and Lynne's ex-husband -- Jamie, at least until the court says otherwise.)
Sighs Lynne, "She could set the world on fire in those days, and she knew exactly what she wanted. But the hardships she's been through have made her a little hesitant. She needs one big boost, one plug of energy and she'll be there."
Britney's mom also reveals how she considered calling her tome "It's All My Fault," although perhaps a more apt, if less catchy, title would have been, "It's All My Fault, But Only to a Certain Point, and That Won't Stop Me From Capitalizing on My Famous Daughter."
"I can laugh about it now," she says, "but did I feel that way at the time? Yes, I did, and, if I'm being totally honest, I still do."
Continues Lynne, "When her life was such a success, what did she need me for? And when things took a turn for the worse, I was out, because other people -- dancers, managers -- were closer to her, and with her day and night. Being a mother, you can't help but have regrets about what you did and didn't do for your kids, and I'm no different."
Those regrets include being "an enabler": "Maybe I didn't give her the skills to handle the hard times. Maybe I sheltered her too much from the realities, and sometimes that's not a good thing."
But she bristles at being labeled a stage mother, pointing out that Brit's rise to fame "actually cost us money," and noting, "In this business, it's customary for the mother to take 5 percent, but I never did, even when times were bad and our family needed the money. Jamie and I both said that we never wanted to be her managers; we just wanted to be parents. I was never in the driver's seat as far as Britney's career goes."
Lynne also sidesteps second-guessing her decision to support Britney's pursuit of stardom.
"Well, that's unrealistic," she says. "You don't tell your child, 'You can't play football because you might get into steroids one day,' because you just don't foresee those problems. Even if I had said no to Britney, maybe worse things might have happened because she was frustrated and couldn't fulfill her dreams."
Still, she acknowledges that at a certain low point she joined with the rest of the world in wondering whether Britney, who cut off contact with her as her life began to unravel, would survive her downward spiral.
"Yes, I did worry that that might happen. I couldn't see Britney, and you worry more when you're looking at things from a distance," explains Lynne, who says that when they reconciled after she lost custody of sons Sean Preston, 3, and Jayden James, 2, "I felt more reassured. She told me that, as bad as life can get, she still likes life too much to consider ending it."
Enthuses Spears, "I'm so proud of Britney. She's been through a tough time and look at her now. That's my baby -- and she's back."
Lynne also weighs in on the other players in her daughter's tabloid-fueled drama, including her custody-winning former son-in-law, for whom she's full of compliments, although some are of the backhanded variety.
"He's not a bad guy and he has a good heart. I would have chosen a prince or a state governor for her, but Kevin's worked a lot to help out, and I can't say anything bad about him," allows Lynne. "He has been real good with Britney and doesn't want to keep the kids from her at all."
She also sort of praises her ex-husband, who took over Britney's train wreck of a life in February.
"I admire Jamie for making the effort and trying to do it well," says Lynne. "We decided he should be the one to do it, because he's the stronger figure. Moms always give in to their kids because we're softies, and what Britney needed at the time was the stronger person."
While she admits Jamie can be "real gruff sometimes," she concedes, "He's been a disciplinarian when it was needed. He's always adored his children, but when they were younger, he was so distracted with work and was drinking heavily, so they maybe didn't bond like they should have done."
And despite Britney comparing her closely monitored life to jail and "Groundhog Day" ("There's no excitement," she gripes in her documentary. "There's no passion ... I think it's too in control"), Lynne believes the arrangement is a success: "Jamie's really doing well with Britney, and I must give him credit for that."
One rule reportedly laid down by Brit's dad is that she's to have no contact with former flame Adnan Ghalib, the chin-strip festooned paparazzo she hooked up with just ahead of her two trips to the psych ward.
"Did I think it seemed right that they were seeing each other? Oh, no," shares Lynne. "But when I met him, Sam Lutfi [Britney's shifty onetime hanger-on] was also around, and Adnan was definitely the better of the two. But Adnan's out of her life now."
As for youngest child Jamie Lynn, 17, who gave birth to a daughter in June (she announced her knocked-up status with an OK! cover story that reportedly netted her a million bucks), Lynne says, "I couldn't believe that my studious, perfect little girl had got herself pregnant. I just went into shock. But she's doing great now, and is a wonderful mom to Maddie Briann."
When asked if there are any more Casey Aldridge-spawned offspring in the future, a "horrified" Grandma Spears responds, "Oh, no, definitely not. I think it took that one time to make her grow up and realize her responsibilities."

Winehouse's husband in trouble too?

Amy Winehouse's sometime husband Blake Fielder-Civil is apparently suffering from some short-term memory loss.
In an interview last week with the News of the World, he claimed he was living substance-free and wouldn't take "a single penny" from the currently hospitalized singer.
Now, with the rehab-flunking jailbird facing another year in the pokey after reportedly failing a drug test, he may be looking to line his pockets with moolah from the woman he admits he "ruined."
"Blake has asked Amy's manager for $1.5 million to walk away from their marriage and not write a tell-all book about it," a source tattles to the tabloid. "He's so two-faced. He just wants a payoff. Money's his driving force."
Fielder-Civil's mother, Georgette, says Winehouse's father, Mitch, made him a "secret" $75,000 offer to hit the bricks, which he refused, apparently saying, "If Amy wants to divorce, I need to hear it from Amy -- not you. You're organizing your daughter's divorce settlement and she doesn't know anything about it. I'm not going to discuss anything with you."
Sniffs Georgette to the paper, "Mitch's $75,000 offer was an insult. Amy's worth $14.8 million and Blake's her husband. He's entitled to at least $4.4 million after all he's been through with her."
Fielder-Civil, who allegedly escaped rehab last week and made a beeline for Amy's hospital bed before heading back behind bars (depending on which report you believe, they may or may not have enjoyed an early conjugal visit), previously told the tab that he was cutting his mess of a missus loose in order to save her.
"I dragged Amy into it, and without me there is no doubt that she would never have gone down that road. I ruined something beautiful," he said. "Now I have to let her go to save her life. I am not abandoning her. I am doing this out of love."
He then declared, "I'm not interested in her money. I always offered to do a prenuptial agreement before we got married. And if Amy wants a divorce, I'm not going to fight her for anything. It's going to be the saddest day of my life. But it doesn't matter if I turn up in the divorce court homeless and with no shoes on, I'm not taking a single penny off her."

Madonna's Divorce


Have Madonna and Guy Ritchie hammered out a financial settlement in the wake of their fast-tracked preliminary divorce decree on Nov. 21? That's the word from Britain's News of the World, which claims the Big M has signed off on a $47 million-plus payout to her former hubby that includes an estimated $18 million in cash and the rest in property, including their sprawling English country estate.
While the director purportedly said that he wanted "not one penny" from Madonna, whose personal wealth is believed to be in the ritzy neighborhood of $500 million, sources tell the tab that he accepted the deal to ensure things stayed civil (a magnanimous and profitable gesture, if true).
"He never wanted any cash handouts," insists a Ritchie mole. "He agreed with Madonna's demands to keep the peace."
According to another insider, "He is getting one lump sum imminently. Guy wanted to stay in their London home, but Madonna refused to split it in two, and eventually gave him [the $18 million] as compensation. She decided early on that he should get [their country house] Ashcombe."
Madonna reportedly handed over the cash to help her ex buy new digs in London and New York, where sons Rocco, 7, and David, 3, are expected to divide their time in a shared custody arrangement (stepdaughter Lourdes, 12, will reportedly be based in Manhattan with her mom).
Ritchie "ducked out of fighting over her fortune, even though he could be entitled to a big chunk," adds the source, but a Madonna pal counters, "She is fed up at reports that Guy is walking away with no money -- she has sorted his finances for life."
(By the by, Madonna's rumored flame Alex Rodriguez has denied reports that he's looking for a New York pad with her, telling People the whispers are "absolutely ridiculous" and they're "friends -- that's it." Guy, meanwhile, has supposedly struck up a friendship with Hugh Grant's moneybags ex Jemima Khan, with a source telling the London Telegraph, "They have become very fond of each other.")

Shania in NYC

Shania Twain is apparently testing out the old adage about how revenge is a dish best served cold. People reports that the country star, who split from husband Robert "Mutt" Lange" in May amid rumors that he was seeing Marie-Anne Thiébaud, her former confidant and manager of the onetime couple's Swiss chateau, jetted into New York last week with a group of pals that included Marie-Anne's ex-husband, Frederic Thiébaud. The pair, who are said to be longtime friends, made a point of keeping their distance as paparazzi surrounded them at JFK airport. A source tells the mag that Shania was in town to "hang and shop" with her inner circle, adding, "She loves NYC during the holidays."

Pam's Missing Pants!


Pamela Anderson likes to swap spit with guys whose lips she's already road-tested. The Miami Herald reports the repeat ex of Tommy Lee and Kid Rock was sucking face with forgotten former flame Stephen Dorff at a bash at Miami's Fontainebleau Hotel on Saturday. That same day, and presumably not as a result of the D-list, DD-cup tonsil hockey, the rapidly aging bombshell, 41, turned up pantsless at photographer pal David LaChapelle's exhibit for the Art Basel fair, strutting around in black-and-orange Underoos, peach-colored heels and an off-the-shoulder T-shirt that should have never left the "Flashdance" wardrobe department. Subtlety being Pam's preferred art form, she made sure to get the cameras clicking like it was 1997 and she was still white-hot by awkwardly leaning over a table, her feet and panty-encased heinie high in the air (still, this was downright modest compared to her butt-nekkid birthday cake presentation to Hugh Hefner earlier this year). As if that wasn't sad enough, the London Sun says Anderson was overheard saying, "I want to buy something, but I don't have any money. I'm broke."

Haylie's new film

The older Duff sister enjoys acting in Ottawa, away from zealous fans and photographers.
Haylie Duff on the set of "Nanny's Secret", a made for television movie being filmed in Orleans.
Haylie Duff thinks Ottawa is a great city to work in.
Haylie, the older sister of Hilary, is filming a TV movie, A Nanny's Secret, in which she has the starring role. She's been here almost two weeks and has walked from her downtown hotel to Parliament Hill, Restaurant e18hteen in the Byward Market and the Rideau Centre without being accosted by fans or photographers.
If she was at home in Los Angeles, she'd have a posse of paparazzi following her every move. She'd even be afraid for her safety. That's why her Ottawa experience so far has been a wonderful change from the celebrity-driven madness of Los Angeles, she says.
"It's been a nice little break," says Duff, 23, in between scenes this week at a house in Orleans that is being used in the movie.
Dealing daily with paparazzi is, oddly enough, normal in Los Angeles, she says. "You start to see the same people all the time and never is it something you look forward to, but it's also kind of something that you understand. It's not nice when they catch you off-guard, it can be a little scary at times, especially if you're by yourself."
She says she's been spooked by several incidents that involved crazed fans and the paparazzi. "I had an experience one time when I had a man come to my house and he was looking in my window and there were photographers all day at my house and they were taking pictures of this guy."
"There are drawbacks but it's something that comes along with this business and we have to take it into consideration. Some days there is nobody outside my house and I don't think about it, but as soon as I get too comfortable they surprise me."
She says the privacy she lost as a celebrity is something she can't do much about.
"I just moved into a house with my boyfriend and our house is in every magazine and gossip website. On moving day, we had anywhere from eight to 15 photographers outside and we didn't call them there."
Just 2 1/2 years older than Hilary, Haylie has maintained a separate identity from her more famous sister, preferring to work in films, television, and theatre. She's appeared in the TV-series Lizzie McGuire and Seventh Heaven, on Broadway in Hairspray and in the cult film Napoleon Dynamite, playing the role of Summer Wheatley.
"I'm very close to Hilary," says Haylie. "We talk all the time and we're very supportive of each other and try and visit each other on location a lot but it's hard because we filming in different places most of the year. We are extremely different and work on completely different things. She has been focused on music for years now and I think that's a stigma that people placed on us in the beginning, me especially, being that she was more well-known in the pop culture world."
Haylie has dabbled in music, co-writing songs on Hilary's last few CDs and also recording The Bangles tune Our Lips are Sealed with her sister for A Cinderella Story soundtrack. But she would prefer to leave the music to Hilary, she adds.
"I think that the things I work on prove that we're different from each other. It's not something that I focus on every day to set myself apart from my sister. We're extremely different."
On A Nanny's Secret, filming has gone very well and she's even got used to trudging around town in the snow.
"We don't have seasons in Los Angeles, but it's been beautiful here and we've had nice weather so far."
She plays the role of Claudia in the TV movie about a strong-willed nanny who works for a young family in a home where a robbery occurs. Her life is torn apart when her brother returns to ask her for more money and she becomes involved in hiding information that could help police solve the robbery.
"I try to find roles that show smart women. This character is extremely independent, she's hard-working, going to school and taking care of her brother who can't seem to take care of himself."

Miley just wants to be a normal teen

Miley Cyrus has just celebrated her sweet 16, and she's already a superstar.

The daughter of country legend Billy Ray Cyrus scored with her Disney TV series Hannah Montana, went multi-platinum with her record albums and was a hit in her first big-screen venture, Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus Best of Both Worlds, chronicling her sold-out tour.

Most recently, she joined John Travolta in the animated feature “Bolt.” But even with everything on her plate, Miley insists she just wants to be a normal kid.

Q: Is it hard for people to believe that there's anything normal about your life with all the fan frenzy and media coverage you get?

A: It's what I've grown up with - being around my father who's gone through the same thing. But when you have it happen to yourself, it's finally like, 'Oh, my gosh. Now I really understand what this is business is all about.' It's like the biggest blessing ever because it's so much fun. But it's not only about the perks, it's about the challenges. I just love the challenges.

Q: Are you tough on yourself?

A: I'm my own worst critic because I pick apart each little thing. When we did the movie of our tour [ Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus Best of Both Worlds], I was super nervous because I was watching myself on the big screen. Half of it was no hair and makeup, no wardrobe, no anything. It was raw. It's what our real life was. That was something new for me.

Q: Now that you have your Hannah Montana clothing line, do you stress out a little more about how you look?

A: I'm not always just perfect but that's what fashion is about. I think fashion is more like picking your style and wearing it -- taking who you are and showing it in your style. Fashion has always been a big deal for me and something that I've loved. The clothing line is so fun because it's not only the kind of things that I like. It's like more of a Hannah Montana look, where I can go crazy. There's no saying what I can and can't do. There's diamonds on everything. It's shiny and it's cool. And it's also age appropriate, not only for the younger girls, but for kids my age.

Q: Did you have fun going to recording sessions and only worrying about how you sounded?

A: It was great. I kind of went in there in like my pajamas and just hung out. It was fun. No reason to get dressed up. They weren't taking my picture so it didn't matter.

Q: Was it more of a challenge than Hannah Montana?

A: You do have to adjust to just being heard and not seen. I had to get used to being expressive and really showing what I feel through my voice. But I'm very animated and upbeat, especially on my TV show, so I guess that helped.

Q: You also wrote a song for the soundtrack that you sang with John Travolta, who voices Bolt.

A: It's called 'I Thought I Lost You.' I can't tell you how much fun it was to sing it with John. I'm going to be bragging about that for the rest of my life.

The Pop Princesses: All Better?

Just the other day, The Pop Princesses had a boo-boo that we almost saw coming - they lost not one, but TWO bandmates!
Marian and Jessica made a move to another rival band by three girls named Meaghan (ex-songwriter for the band), Stephanie (hopeful for the band), and Vanessa. Jessica quit unsure which band to join and Marian quit because her 'friends' were forcing her to go into the other band. And she calls them friends?
With a little help from Kayla and Angela, they were able to pull their bandmates back. So, what's happening to that 'other' band? They are now the 'three muskateers'.
"They should name themselves 'The Copier Princesses' or something. Because all they really did was copy us," says bandgirl Angela.
TAKE THAT COPIERS!

Shenae Grimes: Too Big For Canada?

The 90210 star comes home for the Geminis, but what a difference 12 weeks makes.
Shenae Grimes, 19, did not sound happy to be home at the Gemini awards on Friday. An operative from my international networks of spies just called me on their exploding belt buckle with news that our Little Miss Shannen Doherty: The Next Generation was less than thrilled with the caliber of media on the red carpet at the Canadian television awards. "Who is even here worth talking to anyway?" she was overheard saying in front of a lineup that included national bigwigs Entertainment Tonight Canada and eTalk. Definitely a swift change of heart for a girl who was an intern at Fashion Television not even a year ago. She somehow managed to cram all of that ego backstage, where she waved off the media room. "I try to f--king avoid all that sh-t," she was heard saying. She must have been all blabbed out from that People magazine feature, where she denied being difficult to work with, partying too much, and having an eating disorder. She certainly put the latter rumour to rest. "She demanded to know where her dinner was," a source says. Shenae, what happened? She had such good intentions when I interviewed her last January, back when she was just Darcy on Degrassi. "A priority of mine is being a good role model and a good person all around," she said at the time. "I don't hide things from fans. We've all got our bad habits and our vices and our flaws... You want to see the real person. At the same time, that real person should have good morals and should have good values and should teach good lessons." Or, you know, you can just be mean and party a lot and then tell People it's all lies. I suppose that is a kind of lesson.

The Pop Princesses: Bye So Soon?

Are you ready to say goodbye to The Pop Princesses already? Our inside sources tell 'still.a.rockstar' that the girlband may be breaking-up soon. Here's how we got the story:

Bandmate Kayla wants her 'friend' Jessica in the band... so does Marian, but Angela does not - she just wants it to stay the way it is. Kayla went behind Angela's back and told Jessica she was in the band WITHOUT asking Angela. Then, Jessica came to Angela and told her she was in the band. A confused Angela went to Kayla for the truth but both stories were different. Angela then gave Jessica jobs with the band and left it at that. Jessica was fine with that. Angela sorted evrything out with Kayla and everyone was happy... until Kayla told Jessica she was in the band also saying that Angela had said 'yes' (which she never did). A now furious Angela said that the band was tearing them apart and that they needed to stop this nonsense and get recording.

So, what do you guys think is going to happen next? I think the band may not last that long. Boo hoo.

Another band reunion???

Justin Timberlake could soon be returning to his musical roots if Lance Bass has his way - the singer is keen to reunite 90s boyband 'N Sync.
The Bye Bye Bye hitmakers split in 2002 and the stars went on to pursue solo projects - but Bass wants to bring the band back together to record new material.
He tells In Touch, "It's a definite possibility. We are like brothers - it's perfect."
Bass, who finished third in the final of U.S. reality show Dancing With The Stars earlier this week, has been bombarded with offers since his appearance on the hit show - but music is the only thing on his mind.
He adds, "There are so many crazy doors opening. There is talk of putting an album together next year, but I would much rather do it with 'N Sync. So we are going to be talking about that."

Kerr and Bloom Engaged

MIRANDA Kerr will marry her British boyfriend, actor Orlando Bloom, The Sunday Telegraph can exclusively reveal.The wedding is planned for the middle of next year, when both have a break from work commitments.
Bloom and Kerr, who live together in New York, celebrated their engagement with a romantic getaway in Venice last week. The revelation comes only weeks after the Brisbane-born beauty denied any wedding plans.
Kerr, 25, was also in the Italian city to shoot David Jones' autumn/winter campaign.The couple share many interests including yoga and clean-living ways.In the latest edition of the New York Post's Page Six magazine, the Victoria's Secret lingerie model talks about her plan to one day leave the fashion world and have babies. "I've always wanted kids, so someday, eventually, yes, it will happen,'' she said. "My ideal situation would be to live on a farm in a solar-powered house with a hammock and a vegetable patch. When this is all over, that's where I'll be.''
Kerr and Bloom's relationship has been under scrutiny since they went public as a couple earlier this year, but the Gunnedah-born beauty has remained cool and calm. "We know what we feel about each other,'' she has told The Sunday Telegraph, "so it doesn't matter what anyone else says.''
Kerr, known for her wholesome lifestyle, will next year bring out a self-help book, Treasure Yourself, aimed at young girls.

Miley Cyrus becoming a photographer?!?

Teen superstar Miley Cyrus has been inspired to give up her acting/singing career to study photography following her controversial shoot with legendary snapper Annie Leibovitz. The Hannah Montana star sparked outrage by posing in just a bedsheet for a Leibovitz spread in Vanity Fair magazine earlier this year. But the singer/actress was so fascinated watching the artist at work, she is now determined to gain a degree in photography herself. And Cyrus is convinced that the best way to study the medium is by enrolling at a university in Britain. She says, "I do want to come to London to study photography. I hear there are some really great art schools, so I would love to do that."
"I got to work with an amazing photographer. (Leibovitz) was amazing and so talented. And that's what I want to do with my life. I would love to be a photographer. I would love to work with her again."

And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse...

GET YOUR BARF BAGS READY! They [Arts Alliance Media] decided to make a Sunday School Musical, a rip-off the 'popular' HSM series. Could this get ANY worse?

http://www.amazon.com/Sunday-School-Musical/dp/B001CO42M0

HSM4 in the works

Kenny Ortega wants to make a fourth 'High School Musical' movie.
The director - who helmed the first three films in the Walt Disney franchise - insists people are still interested in the teen musical concept, and feels there is still scope for another film which will focus entirely on British newcomer Jemma McKenzie-Brown.
Speaking at the UK premiere of 'High School Musical 3: Senior Year' in London's Leicester Square last night (07.10.08), Kenny said: "I hope so. I mean, if these kids are still reacting this way after three it would be fun to try and imagine how we would do it for the next generation, maybe with Jemma."
Kenny also expressed his delight at the amazing turnout for the premiere, adding: "It's just spectacular. I mean, they told us the kids had been lined up here all day and we were to expect a really exciting turnout, but it is 10 times bigger than my imagination allowed me to believe."
Stars Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale and Corbin Bleu joined Kenny on the red carpet, before signing autographs for fans.
Ashley, who plays queen bee Sharpay Evans in the movies, revealed she found the last day of shooting incredibly "emotional", as she has become good friends with the rest of the cast.
She said: "I think that all of us are a big family and I love working with Zac, Vanessa and all of them. I think even though this could be the end for us with this movie, we will always stay friends no matter what."

Celine Dion's new made-for-TV movie

Celine Dion's storybook rise from humble Quebec roots to the biggest stages in the world is well-known.
But a CBC-TV movie about her early career traces something she initially kept hidden from the public out of fear of a backlash - her May-December romance with manager Rene Angelil, who met the vocal powerhouse when she was just 13 and he was 39.
Their love affair didn't begin until Dion reached adulthood, but the pair kept it private for years, only to be largely embraced when they finally announced their fairy-tale courtship.
"Age ain't nuthin' but a number, baby," says actress Christine Ghawi, who portrays the pop superstar in the made-for-TV movie, "Celine."
"Hopefully we've managed to kind of clear (any controversy) in the minds of the audience because it's really just about love. There's no perversion to it or anything like that, it's truly just love and magic and the achievement of your potential as a human being."
The rags-to-riches tale follows Dion's musical journey from the age of 10 to 24, starting with her earliest performances at her parents' working class pub in Quebec and ending just before she moved to Las Vegas to begin a four-and-a-half-year residency with a lavish song-and-dance extravaganza at Caesars Palace.

Janet Jackson feels Nasty?

Singer Janet Jackson was rushed to a hospital with an unexplained illness minutes before a performance in Montreal on Monday night.
Jackson's publicists said in a statement the singer "got suddenly ill during her sound check ... and had to be rushed to the hospital just before showtime."
The statement said Jackson, 42, was being monitored in the hospital, but her publicists were unable to say on Tuesday whether she had been released and gave no further information about her illness.
Jackson, currently on her Rock Witchu tour, was making her first appearance in Montreal in seven years.
The show was canceled about five minutes before rapper LL Cool J was to begin his opening act, and it was not clear whether Jackson's next scheduled date, in Boston on Wednesday, would go ahead.
Last week, Jackson called off a concert in Detroit due to "production restraints," local media said.
Jackson was one of the best-selling female recording artists of the late 1980s and 1990s with hit albums that include "Control" and "Rhythm Nation 1814."
She is the youngest of nine siblings in the Jackson family of singers that produced the 1970s pop group the Jackson 5 and self-styled "King of Pop" Michael Jackson.

'Womanizer' Leak Not Official

Gossip blogs and celebrity Web sites lit up Friday (September 19) when a 37-second, static-filled snippet of the first single from Britney Spears' upcoming album, Circus, was briefly posted on a radio station's Web site before being removed.
The snippet of disco-inflected track, called "Womanizer," was briefly posted on the Web site of Nashville radio station 107.5-FM The River before being taken down, although at press time the clip could still be found elsewhere online.
Based on the brief snippet, the Outsyders-produced song is a bouncy dance track with a sing-song chorus that frequently repeats the title; Britney coos about a possible lover who has a reputation of being a womanizer.
According to Britney's label, the station obtained the snippet by recording a phone call in which a radio rep played a rough mix of the song for people at the station — which seems likely, judging by the horrendous sound quality of the clip. At the label's request, the station removed the clip from its Web site.
Fans won't have to wait long for the song's official release, which takes place on Monday. The album follows on December 2, Britney's birthday.
Along with the Outsyders, collaborators on the album include Keri Hilson, Sean Garrett, Rodney Jerkins, Lil Jon, Nate "Danjahandz" Hills (who helmed "Gimme More") and Dr. Luke (who wrote and produced the album's title track), Guy Sigsworth, Bloodshy & Avant (who produced past hits "Toxic" and the big VMA winner "Piece of Me") and Max Martin (who wrote "... Baby One More Time" and "Oops! ... I Did It Again").

Thanks Jennifer from Hilaryfan.com.

Junkie XL Not Included in 'Circus'


Rumor has it producer/remixer Junkie XL's tracks will not make Circus' final cut.
In a press release Junkie XL's manager says: "Junkie XL had been asked to write 3 songs for Britney Spears' new album. Those 3 tracks were offered to her but Britney decided not to use any of the tracks."
Junkie XL, real name Tom Holkenborg, has worked on several Britney projects before including an official remix of "Gimme More" & "Outrageous," as well as crafting the track "And Then We Kiss."
(The cover above is unknown... it is most likely not official though.)
Thanks Jennifer from Hilaryfan.com.

David Cook's First Single Is...

On DavidCookOfficial.com (David Cook's official webpage), the American Idol winner himself blogged about his upcoming first single off his debut album. The song will be "Light On" and the star says, "You'll be able to hear it real soon! Stay tuned to [the website] for information next week!" We have a watchful eye on the website and we'll have your FIRST LOOK! Well, besides the official website.

'X Factor' Welcomes Britney?

Britney is taking her show on the road – all the way overseas.
According to a report by British tabloid The Sun, Britney will be performing her new single, “Womanizer,” on Simon Cowell’s UK reality show “The X Factor.”
The appearance is reportedly set to happen in Decemeber.
“Everyone is thrilled. To have Britney involved is a massive coup. They expect ratings to go through the roof when her performance airs,” a source close to the show reportedly told The Sun.
When contacted by Access Hollywood, reps for Britney were not immediately available for comment on the report.
If true, the gig would be Britney’s first performance in the UK since she brought her Onyx Hotel tour there four years ago.
In related news, a clip of “Womanizer” has reportedly been leaked online, according to various reports. A Nashville radio station, 107.5 The River, posted a clip of the song on Friday, however it has since taken it down.
Britney’s new album, “Circus,” is slated to drop on December 2 – the same day as Brit’s 27th birthday.

Thanks Access Hollywood!

NOTE: I have the clip (I think.) Comment if you want it with your e-mail.

Badgley: 90210 Kids 'Too Thin'

Forget Dylan being revealed as the father of Kelly Taylor’s baby on the new “90210” – the topic that’s got Hollywood buzzing is whether or not the new CW show’s young female stars are too thin.
Much has been made recently over the appearances of several of the “90210” stars, including leading ladies Shenae Grimes and Jessica Stroup.
A new Us Weekly article even went as far to say some of the show’s male stars are showing concern for their co-stars.
“I heard some of the boys on the show are going to sit down with the girls and talk to them,” a source close to the show told Us. “The girls were all skinny when they started, but they’re definitely thinner now.”
Entertainment Weekly also ran a feature on the same issue, questioning if the skinny starlets were setting a bad example.
“Everyone says television adds five or ten pounds, so if you’re watching and someone looks like they haven’t eaten in forever, what must they look like in person?” EW quoted a Hollywood insider who works with young actresses on popular series as saying. “Why doesn’t someone on set or a producer or a studio head say, ‘This is not okay’?”
But apparently, those associated with “90210” aren’t the only ones taking notice of the girls’ physiques.
Gossip Girl” star Penn Badgley is also reportedly weighing in on the topic, agreeing with the notion the girls may be too skinny and offering some dietary advice.
“I hope they eat a double cheeseburger or something,” Badgley said in an interview with AOL’s PopEater blog.
Badgley, who plays nice guy Dan “lonelyboy” Humphrey on “Gossip Girl,” also noted that he was thankful his female co-stars are “healthy” and “aren’t bone-thin.”
“[I’ve] never been [a] proponent of the thin LA girls,” Badgley added.

Thanks Access Hollywood!

Lindsay Lohan Guest Judges 'Project Runway'

J.Lo might have been forced to skip “Project Runway’s” season five finale on Bravo due to a foot injury, but the hit reality design show will return in 2009 on Lifetime with Lindsay Lohan sitting in the guest judge’s chair for the season premiere.
Access Hollywood has learned that the actress will help the judges decide whose fashion is fiercest for the show’s first episode on its new network.
The 22-year-old actress, who has been in New York City recently shooting episodes of “Ugly Betty,” filmed the premiere episode on Thursday.
A source told Access the tentative premiere date for “Runway” on Lifetime is January 20, 2009, while the season five finale airs October 15 on Bravo.
In taking her seat in the judge’s chair, Lindsay joins a long line of A-list stars who have lent their fashion sense to the show, including Victoria Beckham, Natalie Portman and Sarah Jessica Parker.

Miley's Wanted For 'Sex' Prequel?

Access Hollywood caught up with author Candace Bushnell at the “Sex and The City: The Movie” DVD launch party at the New York Public Library Thursday night where she revealed her casting ideas.
“I did just sign a deal to write two young adult books about Carrie Bradshaw’s teenage years,” she told Access Hollywood.
And who would Candace like to see step into the role made famous by Sarah Jessica Parker if her new “Sex” prequel book was to be adapted for TV or film?
“I don’t know…Miley Cyrus!” Candace revealed.
As previously reported by Access, Miley has expressed interest in playing a character similar to Carrie Bradshaw.
“I’d love to do a younger, cleaner version of ‘Sex and The City,’” the Disney star told TV Guide last June.
In the meantime, fans of the adult version of Carrie and the ladies can look forward to more “Sex” at your local cinema according to the author.
“People are talking sequel,” Candace added.

Thanks Access Hollywood!

Nick Jonas has a new friend

Nick Jonas has a new best friend: a golden retriever named Elvis.
The pup was a birthday gift from his family, according to the band's rep. The youngest member of the Jonas Brothers band, who turned 16 on Tuesday, named the pup for two of his favorite musicians, Elvis Costello and Elvis Presley.
Though the band has been busy working on its upcoming film, Jonas Brothers 3-D Concert Movie (which will open Feb. 22, 2009), Nick still made time for Elvis on Tuesday, taking him for a walk around his L.A. neighborhood.

Miley's got a bf?


Miley Cyrus has been dating 20-year-old Justin Gaston, an underwear model and aspiring country singer.
“Miley and Justin were really playful with each other,” an eyewitness at the evangelical church tells OK!. “And for being with her parents, they were extremely touchy-feely. Miley had her hands on Justin’s stomach. They definitely seemed like a couple. Her parents, Billy Ray and Tish, really gave them space.”
Billy Ray, who is a host on Nashville Star, reportedly took Gaston under his wing, eventually introducing him to Miley three months ago, in June.
Allen Osborne, Men’s Director at Vision Modeling, where Gaston is signed, said, “He doesn’t drink. He doesn’t smoke. He’s a very up-and-up guy.”

Miley's got a new project!

Miley Cyrus has landed a new, as of yet untitled Disney movie that is based on the upcoming novel by Nicholas Sparks. Disney and Sparks are keeping details of the plot secret, only saying that Sparks will also write the screenplay on the book, which is set for a 2009 release. More than likely the plot will be more adult like than Cryus's most famous role in the Hannah Montana series.

Thanks Jennifer from Hilaryfan.com...

Miley gives back... again?


Miley Cyrus, Jessica Alba, Mischa Barton and Vanessa Hudgens are among a host of female celebrities who have designed T-shirts for their favourite charities.
The ladies have all created her own 'Spread the Love' T-shirt with designers at Los Angeles based fashion line 2 Love, which will be sold at $50 each. A portion of the shirts' proceeds will be donated to the star's chosen cause - Cyrus' design will benefit the 1736 Family Crisis Center, while profits from Alba's creation will go to help the StepUp Women's Network.
And Alba revelled in the task.
She says, "I had a blast being creative and designing this tee shirt, and I know whenever I see these tees on women, I'll be reminded to 'Spread the Love'!"
Actress Alyssa Milano has also put her creative talents on display for the charity drive, and she is donating her T-shirt's proceeds to the United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef) - of which she is an ambassador.
She tells People.com, "I love the idea behind 2 Love clothing. It is fun to mix fashion and charity. The cute tank makes a statement, and helps Unicef increase public awareness of the challenges facing the world's children and create positive change around the globe."

America Ferrera talks working with Lindsay

The other (not so) surprising development is the return of Lindsay Lohan (who made an appearance at the bash before dashing off to her mom Dina’s birthday party). One of her first scenes this season will be a messy food fight. But even though Lohan was covered with pizza and milkshakes –in multiple takes, no less –her cast members praised her for being a total professional. Ferrera said of working with Lohan again: “It’s been really good! The character she plays, Kimberly, and Betty have so many fun scenes together. We’ve been out clubbing already! It’s been so fun.”

Why Rihanna Dislikes Alcohol

R&B singer Rihanna rarely gets drunk because she was taught the dangers of booze by her alcoholic father.
The Barbados-born star recently revealed that her childhood was blighted by her dad's drink and drug problems, admitting that as a child she was often left to care for her younger brothers while her mother was at work.
But Rihanna insists that the behaviour of her father - who left home when she was nine - taught her some valuable lessons, as she has seen the problems drink can cause.
She says, "I'd go out and get drunk in Barbados, but I never went over the top. I was never in Amy Winehouse mode. I'd seen what alcohol and drugs had done to my dad and I wasn't going to follow in his footsteps. I knew my limits when I was a kid and I still do.
"I go out to have fun, to dance and laugh at people fighting or dressed like whores. I never get to the point where I want to throw up, can't stand up straight or say things I'm likely to regret in the morning."

Britney's comeback happening too fast?

Everything looks great on the outside now...It's all happening for Britney Spears. But is it happening too fast?
Spears' new song "Womanizer" will hit the airwaves Sept. 22. And her new album — "Circus " — will be released Dec. 2, her 27th B-day. She's reportedly been recording the album at her pal George Maloof's Palms Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.
That's not all. The Mirror is reporting that Britney Spears will star in an extravagant comeback performance live from Las Vegas this New Year's Eve. Minutes before midnight, Britney will get onstage at the Pearl Theatre at the Palms Resort, in a fireworks- and effects-laden show that might kick off a rumored world tour.
If it's true, it's a nice chaser to her triple win at the MTV Video Music Awards earlier this month.
But it's been only seven months since Britney lost control of her assets and her dad, Jamie Spears, stepped in as conservator and got her away from a paparazzi boyfriend and an alleged drug-dispensing manager. Isn't Britney moving a little fast? Maybe way too fast? Did Britney shape up to save her career too quickly, without taking time to figure out what on Earth went wrong with her mental health?
Was it all just her manager Sam Lufti crushing up pharmaceuticals in her food? Or did she have a serious drug or mental problem? Everything looks great on the outside now. But what about the inside?
What do you think?

Ferrera's on a roll with hating shows

America Ferrera (Ugly Better, Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants) thinks The Hills, 90210, and Gossip Girl teaches girls to be well, mean girls.
Us Weekly reports that Ferrera isn't happy with the way female relationships are depicted on popular TV shows.
The star of ABC's Ugly Betty, which constantly debates the themes of beauty on the inside vs. the outside, told the October issue of Seventeen, "If you're watching The Hills or 90210, all the backstabbing shapes... the way we act, you go to school, and you think your job is to find a sworn enemy and be jealous of each other."
In that case, what does Ferrera think about Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants co-star Blake Lively's hit show Gossip Girl? She admits, "I mean, I love Blake; she's a wonderful friend of mine, but shows like Gossip Girl kind of condition us to be mean." (Interesting since Ugly Betty, while sweet in the end, has some of the cattiest 'tudes on TV).
With all the talk of catty women, Ferrera admits that working with Lively, Amber Tamblyn and Alexis Bledel on Pants was a wonderful experience.
Do you agree with America's views on the depiction of women in the above shows?

America's Anti-Gossip?


It's no surprise we're into the goss, duh—it shocks us, tho, when other people ain't so into it—or at least, say they aren't. Ugly Betty babe America Ferrera says she doesn't love Travelling Pants costar Blake Lively's CW show, saying that Gossip Girl sends femmes the wrong message about how to behave.
Said A.F. to the Associated Press: "All the backstabbing shapes the way" gals treat one another, and that it teaches women "to be mean."
Please, 'Mer. Women were mean long before shows like Gossip Girl or The Hills hit the airwaves. We absolutely guarantee that cavewomen were bickering behind each other's backs with grunting noises back in the B.C. days, just like today's little girls yank each other's pigtails on the playground.
Only difference is, Hollywood realized it could make money off a bunch of good-lookin', bloodthirsty chicks one-upping one another. Then again, didn't Heathers come out in the '80s, long before even the first 90210 hit the tube? The bitchy babe is here to stay. Get used to it, America. Both of you.
Oh, and let's not rule out the menfolk, here—it's a human trait to be competitive and backstabbing, not a female thing. Women are just better at slamming down the insults, while men usually like to settle disagreements with a Kanye-style smackdown. (Not us, 'course—we use our effed up vocabulary, not our fists.) But what say you about the goss game? Which sex is the bigger—and better—back talker?

Pink: Sarah Palin "Hates Woman"?

Pink: Sarah Palin ‘Hates Women’(Sept. 12) -
In her 2006 song 'Dear Mr. President,' Pink asked George W. Bush a few probing questions. Now she's got some choice words for a certain vice presidential candidate.
"If I were writing a letter to Sarah Palin," Pink told PopEater during her Sessions taping on Thursday, "it would be a lot of whys and hows. Who are you? Do you know? Why do you hate animals? Please point out Iraq on a map ..."
What scares Pink are women who consider the Alaska governor's selection a feminist victory. "This woman hates women," the singer said. "She is not a feminist. She is not the woman that's going to come behind Hillary Clinton and do anything that Hillary Clinton would've been capable of ... I can't imagine overturning Roe vs. Wade. She's not of this time. The woman terrifies me."
Pink, an animal rights activist, suggests creatures other than humans should be just as scared of Palin: "I can't imagine shooting a wolf out of a helicopter."

LoRo isn't engaged?


Is this Lindsay Lohan's engagement ring? Lindsay Lohan has further fueled speculation that she is set to marry girlfriend Samantha Ronson after the former child star was snapped sporting a diamond-encrusted heart-shaped ring on her wedding finger as she accompanied Ronson to a DJing gig in New York on Thursday. (Thanks Jennifer from Hilaryfan.com)
In a recent e-mail I received from People Magazine, Lohan's rep DENIED these reports. But, at this point, anything's possible, right?

Playboy Playmate listens to the Tisdale?

This is from Playboy Playmate Holly Madison's blog from 8/22/08 about the House Bunny's After Party at the Playboy Mansion and she writes:

"I was so excited to see Ashley Tisdale and tell her that I am addicted to her version of Kiss the Girl from The Little Mermaid . . . not the usual kind of stuff I have on my Ipod, but that song is like drugs for me for some reason. I put it on repeat over and over. lol!"

What's with Britney's new photoshoot?

Speculation over Britney's mysterious photoshoot with fashion-photographer Patrick Demarchelier continues as reports from magazines are denied left and right.
After much speculation that Demarchelier was shooting Britney for an upcoming Vogue issue, Vogue's editor-in-chief Anna Wintour said she "will never put her on the cover again," according to a source.
My first choice is Vanity Fair, but according to Eonline.com, it's a long shot. "Vanity Fair's editor-in-chief Graydon Carter has made some unconventional choices in the past, including a much-criticized cover of Paris Hilton and, to a lesser degree, Lindsay Lohan. But a V.F. spokesperson says she doesn't think a Spears story is in the works: 'It's not something that I've been told or heard about.'"
According to E!'s Marc Malkin, most industry insiders have put their money on Glamour Magazine.
"'Patrick shoots for Glamour all the time,' one insider explains. 'She's perfect for Glamour.' A rep for Glamour would not confirm or deny an upcoming appearance by the "Oops!... I Did It Again" singer. 'We don't comment on upcoming issues,' the rep said.
While known primarily as Vogue's main shutterbug, Demarchelier IS allowed to shoot for other mags like Glamour as long as they're within parent company Conde Nast's empire. Besides, another insider says, Spears has a good history with Glamour. She appeared on the cover of their Women of the Year issue in 2003 and "it sold very well," the insider says. Spears then appeared at the annual Women of the Year awards alongside other honorees like former POW Jessica Lynch and Seabiscuit author Laura Hillenbrand."
Demarchelier has also shot Britney in the past for Rolling Stone and Britney's 4th studio album "In The Zone." - which was an outtake from Britney's 2003 Cosmo Girl shoot.
A rep for Spears at her music label did not comment, and emails sent to Demarchelier's office went unanswered.

Brit-brit Out & About


Britney Spears arrives at the Little Red Door Restaurant for dinner in Hollywood on Thursday night.
The 26-year-old singer has impressed her RCA bosses so much recently, that they are pushing for her next album to be released in December. “Britney’s last album, Blackout, was released in the middle of her meltdown and carried negative associations,” a source told The Sun. “It did OK but wasn’t as big as her previous releases.
Label chiefs vowed her private life would never be allowed to overshadow her career again.“However, they’ve been astonished by how well she’s managed to piece her life back together.”
The RCA bosses are reportedly planning to release a single in November then a big relaunch in December with the album and live shows.

Jessica Simpson Stops Performance

Jessica Simpson tripped up a rocky performance on live television Tuesday, the day of her latest album release.
"Hold on, I know this is live TV but I can't hear anything," she said as she starting singing her quadruple platinum hit "With You" on Good Morning America. The music stopped, the crowd in Times Square went silent and then she counted down for her musicians to start again.
"You got it?" she asked. "There you go!"The 28-year-old singer said her new country album, titled Do You Know, reflects her true self."It's a natural place for me," she said on GMA. "I've always been a country girl. It feels good to be on stage being myself."
Asked if she is excited to play aunt to younger sister Ashlee's baby, due in November, Simpson responded: "I am! Oh my god! I can't believe it!"
Simpson also referred to quarterback beau Tony Romo by yelling "Go Cowboys!" and warning Philadelphia Eagles fans, "That's next week! We're gonna kick your butts, too!"

Eva Longoria: 'Isn't Pregnant, Just Fat'


Eva Longoria has put an end to weeks of rumors that she is pregnant. "I'm just fat," she said Tuesday during an interview with Le Grand Journal with husband Tony Parker.
She then burst out laughing while Parker chuckled nervously. The 33-year-old actress is still taking a stab at motherhood -- at work, that is. On the upcoming season of Desperate Housewives, her character will turn into an exhausted homemaker with two kids."Gaby is having a very tough time being the mother of two overweight, hyperactive children," creator Marc Cherry recently told Us Weekly. "But Eva is having a marvelous time playing her!"
To make Gabrielle look like she has two kids, Longoria has said she ate "everything in sight! Pasta ... pizza."Tony and I went crazy this summer!" the actress, who also stopped working out, told Entertainment Tonight. Her other secret for looking heavier? "I have butt pads, I have thigh pads, I have stomach pads!"

Pam Anderson disses Sarah Palin


Most celebrities are speaking out against Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, like Matt Damon who thinks she's totally absurd.
Pamela Anderson, 41, was recently in Toronto speaking out against the abuse of animals in Hollywood. When asked by E! News Weekend Canada about Palin, she has some choice words for the Republican hopeful. The reporter asked Pam if she saw the recent Newsweek article, which showed a gigantic bear hide in the office of Palin's house.
''I can't stand her,'' Pam blurted out. ''She can suck it!''
Pam is a vegetarian, an advocate for animal rights, and an active member of the animal protection organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

Jordin has 'no regrets'

"American Idol" winner Jordin Sparks apparently has no regrets about putting MTV Video Music Awards host Russell Brand in his place after he mocked the Jonas Brothers' pledge to remain virgins until marriage.
"It got to a point where she was so peeved she couldn't take it anymore," a Sparks pal told Pop Tarts. "Jordin felt very strongly the issue needed to be addressed and has no regrets saying what she said."
Reps for Sparks and Brand did not respond to requests for comment. But it isn't just the chastity condemnation that has caused an outcry across America - Brand's "retard cowboy fella" reference toward President Bush has deeply angered numerous disability groups.
"We don't think the words 'retard' or 'retarded' should be used in connection with people," Andrew Imparato, the president of the American Association of People with Disabilities, told Pop Tarts. "When either word gets used, we find it offensive, don't think it's funny, and find it similar to the 'n' word in that it has a long and sordid history and does real harm to the people who have carried that label historically."
But it turns out that Brand's wild ways have gotten him in deep trouble before - he was even fired from the network that has given him his fame today. Brand's first major hosting gig was as a veejay for MTV in the U.K., but he thought it would be funny to come to work dressed as Usama bin Laden after 9/11. His contract was consequently terminated.
"We then hired him back in a swirling haze of scandal," Van Toffler, the MTVN president, said in a statement earlier this year. "We're definitely gluttons for punishment, since we already know he's sought advice from some of his British colleagues, like Amy Winehouse, about how to behave in public."
Well, it looks like Brand's brand of controversy - along with Britney Spears' much-hyped "opening act" - did wonders for the VMAs, which averaged 8.4 million viewers on Sunday, its biggest total since 2004. The show was up from 7.1 million last year. The VMAs hit a record high with 11.9 million in 2002.

Laila Ali Gives Birth!

And in this corner, weighing in at 6.8 lbs., measuring 19 inches long and wearing the white diapers, is Laila Ali's littlest prize fighter ... Curtis Muhammad Conway!
The American Gladiator host, 30, and her husband, retired NFL star Curtis Conway, 37, welcomed their first son together, she announced on her Web site Thursday. (http://www.lailaali.com/)
"Although mom and baby are both healthy and happy, there were some surprises during labor that altered Laila's birth plan," the statement said.
Ali has no doubts that Conway - who has twin sons Kelton and Cameron, 13, and daughter Leilani, 9, from a previous relationship - will do his fair share of diaper duty now that baby "CJ" (short for Curtis Junior) has arrived.
During her pregnancy, "[Curtis] picked up a lot of the slack at home," Ali told PEOPLE earlier this year. "He's going to be excellent when the baby comes." Another sure thing? When Ali revealed to PEOPLE that she was expecting a son, the proud mom-to-be declared, "This boy is going to be an athlete, definitely."
Odds are definitely stacked in CJ's favor: Along with mom and dad's impressive athletic stats, CJ is also the grandchild of boxing legend Muhammad Ali.

Miley Cyrus inspired by the Spears

Miley Cyrus says her family draws inspiration from another celeb family -- The Spears'!
The pop powerhouse Cyrus family draws inspiration from another celeb-filled family, the Spears', according to Miley. "We're so excited for them and their family just coming out. So empowered," Miley said of the Spears family. "We just feel so inspired by their family."
At Sunday's MTV "Video Music Awards," Miley told Access Hollywood's Mel B that the Spears' and Cyrus' are close.
"My mom and [Britney] are like great, great friends," The "Hannah Montana" star told Mel B.
Miley was also inspired by her own mom at Sunday's awards show -- inspired to borrow a pair of her mom's shoes for the red carpet. "I'm adjusting to these shoes, they're too small!" Miley said with a tinge of discomfort. "They're my mom's. Not good!"Not letting the inspiration stop with just the Spears family, or her mom's fashion sense, Miley said her Zac Posen dress made her want to dance in the middle of the red carpet.
"I feel like --I'm like dancing -- like salsa!" Miley added.

Jonas Brothers like Demi Lovato


The Jonas Brothers team up with Demi Lovato to shoot some stills for an album cover while in London on Tuesday.

After 2008 MTV VMAs host Russell Brand made fun of the Jonas Brothers for their purity rings, they paid a visit to Radio 1 in London and responded with grace, having nothing negative to say about the comedian despite his jokes.

After their visit to Radio 1, the brothers met up with Demi Lovato for their photo shoot. The photo shoot took place around Soho and the World Famous 'Eros" Statue.
