Joe Jonas Passes

annietattletart — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 20:01:12 GMT

Between playing sold out concerts and polishing his purity ring, Joe Jonas managed to find some quiet time to study and graduate high school. According to People, the 18-year old sent in his final assignment this past week and is still waiting for his grades but feels that he earned passing marks. Living the life of a rock star on the road, Joe was forced to take correspondence classes to graduate. On their appearance this past Friday on FNMTV, the brothers announced that Joe has indeed graduated. Kevin says “A big congratulations to Joe. He just graduated from high school. It happened yesterday so it’s a big deal.” He didn’t get much time to celebrate though as he was back to work the next day.

Hayden Panettieres New Video

annietattletart — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 17:34:38 GMT

‘Heroes’ hottie Hayden Panettiere has released he music video for her new single ‘Wake Up Call’. The 18-year old actress turned singer, whose musical inspirations vary from Luciano Pavarotti to rapper Nas, said “The concept of my video is to give a guy who doesn’t treat his girlfriend well a wake up call and show him all the different aspects of a woman’s personality.” What do you think? Personally, I think the song itself is mediocre at best but she looks really good in the video. Her makeup artist and stylist should get a bonus for making the girl look good every single time.

Mileys Still Naive

annietattletart — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 16:55:36 GMT

I don’t know what to say about Miley Cyrus. I mean, on one hand, she tries to be a decent role model. On the other hand, she’s so crazy she doesn’t even make sense. After her Vanity Fair photos, Miley had to work a bit on her image. After all, who wants their children to look up to a whore? Well, now, she’s running her mouth again, which is not the smartest thing she could do. In a recent interview she talked of her aspirations and said, “I’d love to do a younger, cleaner version of Sex and the City.” Umm, ok, as in she’s not middle aged and not sleeping with every guy who looks her way? I’m not sure that’s what Disney parents are going to be looking for. Miley, honey, keep your trap shut and your clothes on.

annietattletart — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 18:20:38 GMT

Pete Wentz is turning into his father. The Fall Out Boy rocker - who is expecting his first child with wife Ashlee Simpson - admits the impending arrival has caused him to adopt the habits of his dad, also named Pete. He said: “I’m becoming my dad, actually! I get up at 7am to drive to work down Sunset Boulevard with traffic that I complain about. And then I come home, and I have a pregnant wife and two puppies!” Pete also revealed he is finding every stage of Ashlee’s pregnancy ‘crazy’. He added: “It’s really, really, really, really exciting. When I’m in the doctor’s office, I freak out - it’s this crazy thing, this thing you made. It’s like making a record, but knowing you’re going to mix it for the next 18 years of your life!” When asked if he knew the gender of his baby, Pete replied: “We are hoping the doctor will be able to see something in the next couple of weeks.”

Amy Winehouse and the White Stuff

annietattletart — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 18:08:10 GMT

Amy Winehouse was seen just as she was leaving the Monarch Pub in London on Thursday night carrying an empty Budweiser cardboard box while her friend carried out a lamp with him. As the friends may their way over to a cab, photographers got a glimpse of the British pop wreck’s nostrils which had some mysterious white blobs on them. Who am I kidding? There’s no mystery as to what those white blobs were. It’s obvious that she’s not going to change on her own accord. I wonder if they have some sort of conservatorship thing in the UK too.

Rihanna is InStyle

annietattletart — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 01:44:50 GMT

Rihanna is featured on the cover of the August 2008 issue of InStyle magazine. In this issue, the 20-year old Barbadian beauty reveals her style secrets and talks about her tattoos. Apart from the fact that Rihanna is on the cover, you should also buy the new issue for a look an InStyle’s new look. Group publisher Lynette Harrison Brubaker said “When InStyle launched, what people knew about celebrity was more limited. Now everyone knows everything about celebrity, so we have to keep more relevant. And it’s not enough to say celebrities are the only style makers because there’s 20 people around them in an entourage helping them make choices.”

Hanson star has baby

annietattletart — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 18:08:33 GMT

Isaac Hanson and wife Nikki had a baby boy on July 1, it has been confirmed. The ‘MMMBop’ singer and his spouse – who have a one-year-old son Clark Everett - welcomed their second child, James Monroe Hanson, who weighed 8lb 11oz, in their hometown of Tulsa last week. Isaac – who refers to both his sons by their middle names - said: “The addition of Monroe to our family is incredible and exciting. With Monroe and Everett being so close in age, it will be great to watch them grow up together. Two little boys is going to be twice the fun!” Last October, the 27-year-old singer – the oldest member of boyband Hanson – was diagnosed with pulmonary embolism, a blockage of an artery that can stop blood supply to the lungs, after he was rushed to hospital complaining of severe chest pains. In December, Isaac had rib resection surgery following the embolism. He has been healthy since January. Hanson – which was made up of Isaac and his brothers Taylor and Zac - first shot to fame in 1997 with their worldwide smash hit single ‘MMMBop’.

American Idol Reject Macks Up

annietattletart — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 02:53:11 GMT

I don’t know who he’s trying to fool but I have to admit, he got some attention. American Idol reject David Hernandez pretended to be a straight guy this past weekend. The former stripper and bartender at gay clubs started macking on some desperate blonde in San Diego. The girl is allegedly a fame-seeking briefcase chick on ‘Deal or No Deal’. Why would she stick with David when he’s not even famous? The two stuck close to each other and even made out openly in public. Could you say desperate and completely fake? I bet they were the ones who leaked the pictures of their holiday together.

Jamie Lynns baby - first pic

annietattletart — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 20:37:28 GMT

Jamie Lynn Spears has shown off her new baby Maddie for the first time. Britney’s younger sister gave birth to the tot last month and is enjoying spending time with her daughter in her home state of Louisiana, away from the bright lights of Hollywood. Jamie Lynn told OK!: “Around here, everyone has the same focus. The focus is family, and that’s a good way to live.” The 17-year-old added that she had the “perfect pregnancy and the perfect delivery” and felt “very blessed”. She revealed her fiancé Casey Aldridge was in the delivery room offering his support when she gave birth. Although the labour was induced, she gave birth naturally and without complications. Jamie Lynn said: “Once I got in there, my doctor was just so calm and so good it was not bad at all. I was just talking to Casey. And you know what’s so weird? I was asking him if he was okay. He was like, ‘Yeah.’ We were both so excited.” The couple have set up a nursery for their new baby, but are happy for Maddie to sleep in their bedroom for the time being. Jamie Lynn added: “She is very good. She’ll feed every two or three hours. When she wakes up in the middle of the night, I’ll feed her and she goes right back to sleep. There’s no screaming and crying. We get up in the morning, and she gets her little bath. Then I get my bath. We have a routine, and I love routines. I’ve worked one out with her, and we’re happy going about our little life.”

The New Mileys

annietattletart — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 21:25:19 GMT

Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato kept their arms locked together as they arrived at a hotel together in Toronto, Ontario on Thursday. Demi opened for the North American kick off of the Jonas Brothers’ tour on Friday at the Molson Amphitheatre. Selena was there to watch and support her good friends. The two 15-year olds also happen to be Disney stars sang several songs together when they started in ‘Barney & Friends’ back in 2002/2003. Now, Selena is on ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ and Demi starred with the brothers in ‘Camp Rock’. In my opinion, the channel is already marketing them to be Miley Cyrus’ replacements.

Ashlee Simpsons Baby

annietattletart — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 04:12:43 GMT

Ashlee Simpson is turning into more of a hippy as her baby bump grows right before our eyes. Are we sure she’s not carrying twins? Anyway, baby store Petit Tresor may have ruined the guessing game for all of us. Just as they did with Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, the baby store is claiming that Ashlee is expecting a boy after a recent shopping spree of everything in blue. Maybe she’s carrying twin boys then. Tom sued the store for leaking out fake stories on his wife’s shopping sprees. I wonder if Pete Wentz will make the same move.

Blake Lively Says No to Paris

annietattletart — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 20:13:29 GMT

Just because she’s a young up and comer in Hollywood, don’t you dare say Blake Lively is anything like other Hollywood celebutantes. She may just take offense. Blake says, “I once heard someone say that I’m similar to Paris Hilton - since I have a dog and blonde hair, that must mean we’re alike. It’s a dumb thing to say. I don’t think that makes Paris and me similar…I don’t go to clubs, I don’t party, I don’t dance on tables, and I don’t like sex tapes.” Ok, Paris? Round 2?

Blakes poison pen

annietattletart — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 17:59:17 GMT

Amy Winehouse’s rat husband Blake Fielder-Civil is plotting drug-fuelled sex romps with a woman jailbird he has never even met. He told her of his kinky fantasies in a series of astonishing letters from his own cell. He said he had dumped the Back to Black singer after she confessed to sleeping with two men while he has been locked up. But he wanted to stay friends and bed her too on his release. The jobless junkie even claimed Amy had seen some of the filthy notes — and hinted she could join them for a threesome. Amy, who declared her undying love for Fielder-Civil at a chaotic Glastonbury set on Saturday, is not thought to know the full extent of his cheating plans. They emerged after Melissa Goldstone — serving two-and-a-half years for conspiracy to supply class A drugs — wrote wishing him luck in beating heroin in prison, as she had done. Sleazy Fielder-Civil, 25, soon started talking about bondage and violent heroin-fuelled orgies. In a dozen X-rated letters spanning almost all of his seven months inside, he told blonde Melissa how he will perform unnatural sex acts on her. He gloated: “I’ll bend you all over the place, with my hand round your throat.” In a note the 24-year-old received last month, he detailed a four-page fantasy so graphic most of it cannot be printed. He said if Melissa ever visited him in jail he would perform a sex act on her under the table. He then imagined their first night together as free people — romping in a restaurant toilet. The error-strewn message continued: “I squeeze your throat whilst your s****** me and I ask you if your a dirty b***h.” He then described a deeply disturbing sex fantasy before signing off: “At most we’ve got to wait ten weeks for the best snog of our lives!! Miss you Lissy, love and rockets, your Blakey x x x.” Another time he wrote: “I’ve told Amy about you and read a bit of one of your letters. It turns her on and she wants to meet ya. I think she might write to you cuz she asked for your address. I don’t want her to know about all the personal things I’ve written to you about but you can tell her we write dirty, naughty letters to each other if you want.” Hinting at a threesome, he continued: “She’ll probably want you to write one to her! So I’m not sure how everything’s going to work out but I have a few nice ideas!! We’ll just see, innit?” He also said Amy confessed to flings with her manager’s aide Alex Haines, 22, and American photographer Blake Wood, 21. He forgave her cheating the first time — but “then she does it again. So I’ve ended it. She never wrote or turned up anyway so it ain’t like anything’s changed.” He went on: “Me and Amy are always gonna be close but we’ve decided we’re better as friends. The fact is we’re in an open relationship (well I didn’t know we were til recently!!!) but I don’t want that. I just want a loyal sweet, staunch, slutty girlfriend.” In letters written either in Pentonville’s C block or segregation unit, depending on his behaviour that week, he then invited Melissa on a six-month drugs trip to Thailand. He wrote: “We can just sun ourselves, I can f*** you all over the country and the gear there is f****** unreal!!! Something to look forward to innit??” He signed off: “love love love and long leather gloves. Your Blakey x x x.”

Jonas Mania Still On

annietattletart — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 04:40:46 GMT

The Jonas Brothers performed at the HMV music store on Oxford Street in London on Friday. The band of brothers recently took to their blog about their experience at the store. They said “It was fun to see the people from the label there with their mouths wide open and their hands over their ears. The shouts were so loud. We signed for 300 people that waited in line. They told us that there were a lot of people that had been in line since the day before. The wristbands were gone in 30 minutes. As we were leaving there was a group of girls running after our vehicles. It will never grow old to us to see hundreds of screaming fans chasing our car AND the looks on the faces of people when our fans come around the corner running after our cars screaming. Totally crazy!”

Madonna and Guy Pray Separately

annietattletart — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 23:45:10 GMT

Wow, people are really trying hard to substantiate this divorce rumor for Madonna and Guy Ritchie. Seems she was in Manhattan, sans wedding ring, attending a Kabbalah meeting with her kids and the biological father of daughter Lourdes. Guy, on the other hand, was attending Kabbalah services in London. A rep for Madonna says, “Madonna has rarely worn a wedding band over these last six years, so there’s no secret message about that.” We’ll see what happens….I don’t understand why people are so set on them breaking up.

Avril is Confused about Geography and Law

annietattletart — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 00:18:11 GMT

Avril Lavigne is turning into such a big diva that’s she’s getting confused about where some laws hold jurisdiction. Sources are saying that she’s being just that in Sweden. Apparently, Avril is set to perform in Sweden on Saturday where she has demanded that any photographer hoping to shoot at the concert sign a contract that goes against Swedish law. Apparently, the Canadian singer wants the Swedish media to follow US law. Now why would Swedes follow a US law when they’re in their home turf? Add to that, it’s not even an American pushing the law on them. Avril is just so stupid.

Rihanna sat down for The View in Las Vegas on Monday morning where she was again asked about what’s going on with her and Chris Brown. The Barbadian babe replied “We hang out a lot. We’re very close. He’s an amazing person but we are not dating. We’re very close friends, though. Very, very close.” When she was asked about her tattoos, Rihanna explained the new one on her left shoulder saying “They’re Roman numerals. Me and my best friend got the same thing. It’s her DOB (date of birth) and she has mine.” Apart from getting some dish on the singer, Rihanna also performed her single ‘Take a Bow’ on the show.
