'Jon & Kate Plus 8' Officially Over

Monday night, the final episode of "Jon & Kate Plus 8" aired on TLC after five seasons. The final hour featured the Gosselin's eight children touring a fire station with Jon, then visiting a local dairy farm with Kate. The show was once loved by audiences all over the country because of wholesome scenes like these, but in the past year the show gained notoriety for the bitter divorce between Jon and Kate, bringing production to a halt. TLC planned on creating a new show called 'Kate Plus 8,' giving Jon less of the spotlight, but he had a sudden change of heart about having his kids filmed for national television and kept the show from getting off the ground.

The estranged couple were filmed separately, and both aired their opinions about the show's end. Kate claimed, "I feel like it's been taken from us, from me and the kids," and said that she felt the end was "needless. It's useless, it's totally avoidable...This is a very bittersweet goodbye for me because the kids are already missing it," while Jon told the camera, "Our marriage fell apart and I felt like I was free. And I kinda took advantage of it for a while and didn't really think about my actions, obviously, until I started getting paparazzi and written about. But that's maturing. That's growing up."

Paula Deen Smacked in the Face with Ham

For the "that's gotta hurt" category: celebrity chef Paula Deen was volunteering for the Hosea Feed the Hungry food drive in Atlanta, Georgia, and the thanks she got for her trouble was a renegade ham to the face. The incident was accidental, as the ham was merely being tossed for loading and Deen's face just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Despite needing to ice her nose afterward, the chef laughed it off and went back to being her jolly Southern self. Lucky for us, the whole thing was caught on tape. Check it out:

Miley Cyrus and Her Brother Want Matching Tattoos

Metro Station rocker Trace Cyrus has several tattoos, and after getting a matching design to his singer father Billy Ray Cyrus he now can’t wait until 17-year-old Miley is old enough to get her first piece of body art.

“I already have a matching one with my dad, there’s no reason I wouldn’t do it with my siblings," he said. "Someone you’re that close to, it’s something that means something to you obviously, so why wouldn’t you do it?”

Miley still has another year to go before she can get some body art to match her brother, but the siblings – who are currently touring together – often swap relationship advice with one another.

“She helps me with my girl problems, I talk to her about boys she’s talking to," single Trace told OK! magazine. "She has a smart head on her shoulders and anything that she decides is going to be the right decision.”

Trace, 20, also shared that he and his mother Tish are getting matching tattoos as well.

“My mom’s going to get a ribcage tattoo that is definitely the biggest tattoo she’s ever gotten," he said. "I’m definitely proud of her for that. It will definitely be a little bit different of an experience for me. I’ve never gone to get a tattoo with my mom ever. She’s taken me to get a tattoo but we’ve never both gotten one at the same time.”

FHL - Adoptee's Worst Nightmare

Matthew Roberts found out he was adopted when he was ten years old. Roberts spent over a decade locating his mother with the help of social services. When she was finally located, his mother informed him that he was once named "Lawrence Alexander". When Roberts inquired about his father, his mother remained mum on the topic. Little did he know that his biological father is Charles Manson, one of the most notorious serial killers of all time.

Charles Manson and his family committed a string of murders in the summer of 1969. He has been incarcerated for the past three decades. It took Roberts five years to drum up the courage to contact Manson. When he finally sent his father letters in prison, Roberts received several responses right away. He cryptically signed off each letter with a swastika. Manson told Roberts: "You got the same father I got. A hobo just left on the midnight train and died, lost at sea."

Robert's mother, Terry, was enamored with Manson's charisma and boarded a bus with Manson and his family. They wound up in San Francisco, where Terry claims Manson raped her during a drug binge. She returned home shortly after and gave birth nine months later on March 22, 1968. Terry gave the child up for adoption.

When Matthew Roberts met his mother, she told him he looked exactly like his father. However, Roberts remains optimistic about the situation. He stated: "I don't even like the fact that I'm big. It makes me even scarier. My hero is Gandhi. I'm an extremely non-violent, peaceful person and a vegetarian. I don't even kill bugs. I've had long hair all my life. I could make it go away, but I can't let the world and their fears change me."

Justin Bieber Shuts Down NY Mall

Tween girls camped out overnight or arrived during the wee morning hours in Nassau County, New York this weekend. The reason? A chance to see fifteen year old singing sensation, Justin Bieber. Three thousand girls began pushing and shoving to get a closer look at JB, but wound up causing a raucous. Island Def Jams artist Bieber was scheduled to make an appearance at Roosevelt Field Mall, but he never made it into the building.

An Island Def Jam vice president was arrested at the event for not cooperating during crowd control proceedings. Bieber and his mother were turned away at the door by police. He later told WBLI Radio that the police "threatened to arrest my mom and I." Five people were taken to the local hospital with minor injuries.

Somewhere, the Jonas Brothers are sighing in relief. The tween girl spotlight has finally shifted onto someone else.

Follow-Up: Demi Moore W Magazine Photoshop Mystery

Just this week PCM reported that Demi Moore's W Magazine cover may have some serious issues. While others in the media speculated Demi may have had a hip-reduction via-Photoshop, we asserted that she may in fact had significantly more done to her photo.

See our previous article complete with detailed photos: Demi Moore's Body Replaced by W Magazine.

We contacted Demi directly after she tweeted a photo she claimed was the 'original' photo from the magazine shoot. As she choose her words carefully tweeting: Here is the original image people my hips were not retouched don't let these people bullxxxx you!

PCM questioned Demi asking, "was this photo direct from camera?" to which we received no answer. PCM speculated from the onset that perhaps what Demi received from W Magazine and what the original photo looked like at the time it was taken may indeed be two separate images.

At worst another model's body was used as a template and sampled over to her photo for enhancements. At best, Demi has just plain reversed time.

Is it stands now, W Magazine has finally stated that the photo was retouched but still leaves Demi Moore to fight this battle on her own.

Now the photographer who started this entire uproar (not the photographer that took the actual picture) has spoken up in response to Demi's very assertive tweet. He says in a communication to our friends at Celebitchy.com:

I saw your article on the Demi Moore Photoshop flub - I’m the photographer who started the whole thing - and after giving it a lot of thought (and being accused of “bullsh*t” by Demi overnight), I’m raising the stakes: http://twitter.com/acitrano/status/5894990728

While I really feel bad that Demi is on defense over this, I also don’t like being accused of “bullsh*t.” So, let’s find out who’s bullsh*tting. This isn’t about her and it isn’t about retouching (I’ve no problem with either). It’s about a blooper, basically. The cover is a blooper; it goes on the art department’s wall of shame. So what? We
all make mistakes. That’s got *nothing* to do with Demi. She’s a beautiful woman with or without retouching. And where the hell is W Magazine on this? Why are they forcing Demi to address it? It’s not fair to her.

There's more to this but in short, the question remains unanswered. At some point this could heat up and bubble over, but the entire fiasco could be put to rest if W Magazine and Demi Moore would provide some proof to back up the cover shot of Demi.

New Moon Mania!

It's just amazing! The entire female population has gone to the movies! You can't enter an parking lot near a movie theater without struggling to find a man in the crowd. It's an exciting time to cheer on Vampires that could work at Starbucks. Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson have perhaps replaced the notion of what a Vampire is. They are loving and kind, romantic and endearing.

So when do we get more of this smart and intellegent reworking of the vampire concept? Well... with the premier taking place just a day ago the DVD release date has already been announced. OK sorta... The third film Eclipse will be in theaters June 30th of 2010.

That's not even a year away! The wait won't be so long, that's important because women are not like men, they won't tolerate waiting as long as men do. Think of it, Lord of the Rings would be a year long wait and Star Wars was generally a two year wait. As for the New Moon DVD release date... Don't look for it in your Christmas stocking. The release date for DVD is approximately three months after the film finally leaves theaters. Can you say happy Valentines?

How is it the release date for Eclipse is so firm? The film makers pulled a Matrix/Kill Bill. However while those films were completed in back-to-back, Eclipse was merely filmed in quicker succession as Hollywood was confident New Moon would be a major success. The film just wrapped shooting and is post production now. It's basically already completed. Yes, it's done already and you can't just watch it! Guess the ladies will just have to wait...

Miley Cyrus Tour Bus Driver Dies in Accident

Miley Cyrus tour bus was involved in a single vehicle accident in Virginia about an hour south of Richmond. It occurred around 8:30 AM on a long stretch of I-85. I-85 is a quiet Interstate road often used driving south to Georgia. The bus was headed to Greensboro, North Carolina for Sunday concert.

Over a dozen passengers were on board, some reports indicate only two passengers were injured and all exited through the windshield after the bus veered off the road and careened into a ditch. The driver of the bus was killed. Miley Cyrus was not on the bus at the time of the accident as it carried non-performing staff members. There is no statement from Miley at the time of this report.

Demi Moore's Body Replaced By W Magazine

In a recent high profile row, Ralph Lauren took flack for blatant outrageous Photoshopping of models. But this has not reformed the industry. Instead, magazines like W have simply decided to jam more false images of how people look down our throats. After all, who is to stop them?

Check out what it appears to be 26 year old Anja Rubik's superimposed body... scratch that - her body was attached to Demi Moores for the sake of a better cover image. You have to wonder, did Demi even wear the same Balmain dress?

There h

as to be an extreme effort to put forth to take a woman that is 47 and make her look like a woman much younger. The answer may be beyond Photoshop, it could very well be full body replacement with the use of Photoshop. Representatives from W claim 'nothing unusual' was done but of course that means nothing because Photoshopping is standard practice in the industry. The blogsphere has gone nuts questioning if the photo is retouched. This writer asserts the photo is both retouched with other significant changes.

The story is evolving by the minute. Demi being the high-tech tweeter has joined the fray and insists in a tweet: Here is the original image people my hips were not touched don't let these people bullxxxx you!

I've always been a big Demi Moore fan. I mean no disrespect in any way, there seems to be a great body evidence (no pun intended) that the body in her photo is not her. Offering up a photo she received from W magazine isn't the same as the original photo before any staffer touched it. Perhaps she can clarify this and put he matter to rest. Until then, a lot of speculation will continue. If nothing else people are becoming more aware of the antics magazines and advertisers pull and it does need to stop.

Until we figure the truth, here is the cover everyone is talking about. Let's just hope that until we do know the absolute truth, it doesn't sell a lot of magazines. If it is a true photo, then I say we reward Demi and the Magazine and all buy two copies.

Robert Pattinson Confirms all Rumors on Today Show

This morning on the Today Show Matt Lauer asked Twilight star Robert Pattinson about all of the rumors that have been circulating about him and Pattinson jokingly confirmed them all. Lauer asked Pattinson about dating, being engaged, and even drugs.

"You've been dating nonstop," Lauer asked.

"Literally nonstop, yes," Pattinson said.

"You're dating a costar whose name rhymes with Tristan Belwart," Lauer said.

"Tristan Blewart ... there was a Liston Hewitt last year," Pattinson said. "That would be true, yes."

Pattinson also addressed the pressures of his sudden fame. "I speak in an American accent when I speak to the crowd," he said. "I feel like it's acting. I mean, I think it's the only way I don't go completely mad."

Johnny Depp Named Sexiest Man Alive

Johnny Depp has been named People's Sexiest Man Alive for the second time. He is the third man to receive this honor, along with Brad Pitt and George Clooney. A spokesperson for People Magazine stated, "At 46, the father of two still reigns as Hollywood's most irresistible iconoclast; as one-of-a-kind as his beloved 15 year-old-boots and as smoldering as his favorite Cuban cigars. He has had women swooning since his days as a teen detective on '21 Jump Street'."

Reports circulated earlier this week that Twilight hottie Robert Pattinson was taking the Sexiest Man crown this year. However, Depp's sexiness reigns supreme.

Hugh Jackman, last year's recipient of this prestigious honor, is elated that the "pressure's off" of him now. He says, "I can be a slob again."

Also featured on 2009's Sexiest Men list include: Ryan Reynolds, Jake Gyllenhaal, David Beckham, Bradley Cooper, Gilles Marini, Nick Cannon, Chris Daughtry, and Robert Downey Jr.

Father of Boy Who Accused Michael Jackson of Molestation Commits Suicide

Evan Chandler - the father of Jordan Chandler, who accused Michael Jackson of molestation in the 1990s- was found dead in his Jersey City apartment. He was 65 years old. Officials claim Chandler was found with a .38-caliber revolver in his hand, but there was no note.

In the 1990s, the Chandlers were awarded 20 million dollars from Michael Jackson, although Jackson was never officially charged with sexual abuse.

Jordan Chandler had since estranged himself from his father. He even went as far as getting a restraining order against his father. Evan Chandler allegedly hit his son with a dumbbell.

Family and friends have come forward stating that Chandler had become increasingly more depressed. He suffered from wild mood swings and depression.

Nicole Richie Thinks of Joel Madden as her Husband

Nicole Richie appeared in court on Monday to get a restraining order against the paparazzi that caused her car accident last month. During the court proceedings Richie's lawyer referred to Joel Madden as Richie's husband and she did not correct him.

"A few of the paparazzi had become more aggressive...trying to get in front of me, trying to get beside me, ran a red light," Richie said during her testimony. "I was hysterically crying."

Her lawyer Mark Geragos asked, "Did you call your husband?" and Richie replied with "yes."

Richie and Madden are not actually married, but the two have been together for several years and have two children, Harlow and Sparrow.

The accused paparazzi were ordered to stay 50 yards away from Richie and her two children until 2012. The restraining order does not cover Madden since he and Richie are not married.

Are you taking care of your man? Well, here is a chance to show him how much you appreciate him. Why? Because November 19th is International Men's Day.

In the spirit of equality and less gender discrimination against men, the idea is somewhat new. In 1999 the day was launched posthumously in Trinidad and Tobago.

International Men's day is meant to showcase the unheralded achievements of men such as being good husbands, or fathers. The United Nations has gotten behind the event to offer gender balance, celebrate mens achievements and promote an anti-sexist environment.

Ashlee Simpson Defends Sister Jessica

Ashlee Simpson doesn't understand why the media criticizes her big sister about her body. Jessica Simpson is best known for her achieved chest and petite frame. But whenever she gains a pound or wears an unflattering outfit (horizontal stripes don't work on most people, sweetie), magazines publish distorted pictures of her looking less than lovely. Ashlee stated to Women's Health Magazine, "My sister has an incredible body. I feel sorry for anyone who would judge her, because she's one sexy lady."

Jessica may be "one sexy lady", but she is often the target of media scrutiny because of her interesting history. She got divorced from Nick Lachey after filming the show Newlyweds, fulfilling possibly the most ironic moment in television history. Jessica also had a string of failed relationships, including one with musician John Mayer and Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo. In recent months, her beloved puppy Daisy was snatched up by a coyote, never to be seen again. Her tumultuous life is media gold and that is why they continue to write about her.

The media should back off of Simpson when it comes to her weight issues. Eating disorders and obesity issues make headlines daily. Constantly harassing an individual about such personal issues can have a long-lasting negative impact. Ashlee Simpson stated, "It's disgusting that people would say those things." Saying mean things about weight isn't necessarily disgusting, but definitely unnecessary and crude.

Carrie Prejean's Biggest Mistake or Biggest Mistakes?

She had to open her mouth. In fact she even printed it...“God gave us our bodies, and it’s perfectly right that we use them in ways where we can give glory to God by making our bodies, our temples of the Holy Spirit, strong and fast.”

It appears Miss California or should we say Miss Hypocrite wasn't in just one 'biggest mistake' of her life as she's tried to explain. According to Radar Online Carrie Prejean has an additional 7 solo video sex recordings complete with moaning in ecstasy. She also has another 30 photos, which are not naked 'fashion' photos, but more photos sexual in nature.

At this time, the video and photos have not been circulated around the Internet so don't go running torrent searches just yet...

Carrie Prejean really needs to back track and get herself together. You can't call Larry King inappropriate for asking questions related a legal case, call him inappropriate only to know you've got plenty of inappropriate behavior of yourself on tape and celluloid. What is this woman thinking? You have to think what will be uncovered next and what will come out of her mouth next? The only reason any media source is putting her in front of a microphone now is to see how much damage she can continue to do to her own character. She's a train wreck taking place in front of our eyes.

Megan Fox Speculates On Jennifer's Body

Lately the blog press and gossip hounds have been picking on Megan Fox. Mostly because she brought it on herself with her anti-men anti-director and holier than though attitude about how she's perceived by the media in films. For all her uppity comments, you have to respect her will to stand her ground and her individuality. In recent interviews she's been pressed on why she thinks Jennifer's Body wasn't a box office hit. Megan defended her work recognizing it as good fun. "The scenes in which I was covered in blood and break through glass were amazing. In one scene, I'm shoving a whole chicken in my mouth - a whole chicken! I love it; it is so different and original."

Jennifer's Body is original, it features her as a undead lesbian cheerleader that eats men. Megan couldn't explain why it didn't stand out among Halloween flicks, "It was so cheese-tastic and so gross and so cheap, I loved it. It was so like how I used to dress when I was in high school because I had no money."

Megan may end up back with no money the way her career is heading now. Megan believes that as woman she can use her looks to path of success. It seems her choices don't coincide with her logic. The past summer she belittled the director of Transformers and ridiculed the film which lead to the film staff posting a blistering blog about Megan's bad attitude and how nobody liked her.

In many interviews she's claimed that she can control men simply because she has female body parts, Megan was explicit about it.

Let's hope Jennifer's Body makes enough money on DVD they make another. Megan may find this is the only work she can find if she keeps up her attitude about anything other than her own choices being the best.

Bernie Madoff's loot Gets Liberated

It will never repay the thousands of victims he stole billions from but the right thing has start somewhere. The liquidation of his physical assets is far from complete, here are some of the things you could have had if you were at the auction on Saturday November 14th in New York which featured jewelry. In total an estimated 188 items were auctioned off.

Perhaps that most attractive piece was Madoff's NY Met's Jacket. New York Aquarium worker Mario Ramirez had designs on it. He attended the auction an envelope of $3,500. His big plan? To sell it on ebay but only after he wore it for a season showing off Madoff's name emblazoned on the back. Sadly his $3,500 wasn't enough. In a heated bidding war the jacket ended up going for $14,500.

Other items of note were Madoff's duck decoys which ended up being fiercely bid for at $3,250-$4,750.

Oh... and don't feel too bad you missed out on these items. You can bid on his Yachts on November 17th! Visit www.yachtauctions.com/madoff

GLEE's Music Tops The Charts

Glee’s cultural stronghold continues to grow as the massively popular Fox comedy’s first soundtrack soars to the top of album sales charts. Glee: The Music, Volume 1, which was released on November 3, has sold in excess of 113,000 units in its first week alone garnering an astounding #4 spot on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart. Prior to this physical release the music from Glee was only available for purchase digitally where it sold over 2.5 million single downloads, spawning a Gold single for the cast’s version of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’.” Glee: The Music, Volume 1 has been celebrated by critics for its originality and ability to take popular music and make it innovative and fresh. The New York Daily News proclaimed “Glee’s singers have a greater feel for what’s brilliant about these songs than even their creator, or first interpreters, did.” While NY Newsday went on to boast, “it re-imagines songs with grand, inventive new arrangements.” And Associated Press noted “the vocal performances are top notch.” The talented cast met fans and signed copies of the soundtrack at four major in-store appearances in the New York and Los Angeles metropolitan areas last week allowing fans to get up close and personal. Each event went beyond capacity and the gracious cast stayed beyond the allotted time to meet all the fans who turned up.

And for fans who just can’t get enough of Glee’s high spirited music, Glee: The Music, Volume 2 hits stores on Tuesday December 8. This second volume features the casts take on such pop powerhouse tunes as Kelly Clarkson’s “My Life Would Suck Without You,” Cyndi Lauper’s “True Colors,” Van Halen’s “Jump” and a really special version of John Lennon’s “Imagine” (See below for full track listing). Glee is infectious and the music is sure to bring joy, which is exactly why the Chicago Tribune exclaimed “Any TV show soundtrack that induces people of all ages to dance around the kitchen is doing something right.”

The full track listing for “Glee: The Music, Volume 2” is as follows:
“Proud Mary”
“Endless Love”
“I’ll Stand By You”
“Don’t Stand So Close To Me / Young Girl”
“Crush”
“(You’re) Having My Baby”
“Lean On Me”
“Don’t Make Me Over”
“Imagine”
“True Colors”
“Jump”
“Smile” (cover of Lily Allen)
“Smile” (cover of Charlie Chaplin)
“And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going”
“Don’t Rain On My Parade”

“My Life Would Suck Without You”

Make Your Own Sky King

We've all made a paper airplane, usually we have two choices. The long jet, or the short stunt plane. Neither flies all that great. What if you could combine the two for a snub nosed paper airplane that actually flies GREAT!

That's just what Takuo Toda of Japan did in 2009. His invention was recognized by Time Magazine as one of the year's top 50 inventions. And he should know about inventing a great paper airplane. Toda is chairman of the Japan Origami Airplane Association. "Since I was about 4 years old, I’ve been able to make really good paper planes and commit the steps to memory. His ambition has resulted in the Sky King paper airplane which has flown for a record 27.9 seconds. It's not his only plane design, he has over 700 in his resume. He hopes one day to reach a flight time of 35 seconds which he has accomplished in practice.

Like the paper airplane you made as a kid, the Sky King is made of a single sheet of paper, which can be a your basic oblong notebook sheet or copy sheet (8.5 x 11). You won't need any tape or glue either.

Fly it inside and you'll think, nice - not much different than other paper airplanes. Take it outside and it will really impress you. You'll get long flight time results. Here is a video of how to make the Sky King courtesy of Wired.

Nicolas Cage was Stalked by a Mime

‘Bangkok Dangerous’ actor Nicolas Cage joked about his ordeal at the hands of a “silent but maybe deadly” performer but admitted he found the white-faced stranger “unsettling”.

“I guess it would fall into the stalker category more or less," Cage said.

"I was being stalked by a mime—silent, but maybe deadly. Somehow, this mime would appear on the set of ‘Bringing Out the Dead’ and start doing strange things."

"I have no idea how it got past security. Finally, the producers took some action and I haven't seen the mime since. But it was definitely unsettling."

A mime artist performs without speaking, expressing stories through bodily movement alone, and traditionally paints their face white.

Having a mime for a stalker would be pretty creepy because you certainly wouldn't hear them coming.

Michael Jackson Wanted to Create Robotic Twin

The late King of Pop Michael Jackson underwent several three dimensional scans in 1996 so a virtual reality ‘robotic’ replica of himself could be made.

The scans could now be used to recreate the Thriller star in pop videos, computer games or even films.

The anonymous US businessman who owned the images has reportedly been trying to sell them for $1 million. “The data has been in our archives since he had the scans," the businessman told Britain's Daily Star newspaper. "The thing about this data is it immortalised him at the age of 37, before his nose was disfigured and when he was in the prime of his life.”

Apparently Michael’s funeral was nearly cancelled at the last minute due to costs.

Around $1 million was estimated to have been spent on the funeral, which took place on September 3.

Court papers have revealed that lawyers acting for the ‘Billie Jean’ star’s mother Katherine had filed a request to the administrators of his estate to pay for the funeral bills just three days before the funneral.

The lawyers stated that if the funeral home and local police department’s bills were not paid by the next day, the burial would not go ahead as planned. Administrators were able to pay the bills in time so that the funeral did not have to be delayed.

Katherine’s lawyers admitted the cost of the funeral was high, but added it was: “Entirely commensurate with the decedent’s worldwide status as an entertainer and the world’s grief over his death.”

Can We Stop Giving Carrie Prejean Airtime?

Even conservatives that want to get behind Carrie Prejean for her one time stand at the Miss USA Pageant have had enough of Carrie Prejean's antics and attempts to create celebrity for herself.

Here is some quick background. She's making the rounds on TV talk shows in response to her news worthy event surrounding her cross civil suit with the Miss USA Pageant. Just this past week TMZ helped put the kibosh on her hopes to sue the pageant after an old ex-boyfriend of hers gave TMZ some cell phone video of Carrie when she was 18. In it she was trying to please the ex-boyfriend by performing a 'solo' sex act. That video was shown to her mother and legal counsel at a meeting between all parties. The result, shock and dismay on her part and she decided then and there to settle the case.

All of that made news. You'd think if she was so shocked and upset she'd lay low. Instead Carrie has quickly booked herself for discussion. On Wednesday night she was on Larry King whom is about the most lame interviewer on the planet. He couldn't ask a tough question if his life depended on it. He skirted the issue of her touching herself and only asked what motivated her to settle. She then seemed to put on some bad acting and smugly told him repeatedly that he was being 'inappropriate'. The manner in which she delivered her defense seemed canned, as if she was waiting to say those words. It was all very phony on her part. Carrie spent time looking off camera to her handlers asking if it was time for her to walk off camera. She announced to Larry, "I'm about to walk off your show." Larry in turn explained he followed her instructions, changed the subject and left her plenty of room to save face. Instead she continued to tell him he was 'inappropriate'. It was unbearable to watch.

Ultimately she did stay on the show, but her antics really spell out what she is all about. At one time she had substance and reason for making a stand. While Perez Hilton may be out of line for calling her names simply because he wants to attack her, she's not helping her cause at all now by acting out on TV. Here is the video below. Decide for yourself as she idiotically holds up her book as if she is begging people to buy it.

Mike Tyson in Citizens Arrest

Mike Tyson was arrested Wednesday while with his family. It all took place around 4:30 pm at a United Airline counter at LAX in California. Tyson and family were on a return flight from a European holiday.

Once again a photographer created the incident and upon provoking the ex-boxing champ in front of his family, 43 year old Tyson decked him. Some reports state Tyson may have been pushed or shoved. As a result the Paparazzo was leveled and took a bad gash to the head. He got up and walked away bleeding profusely. Many witnessed the scene and with both the photographer and Tyson sensing they needed to play the next card fast - they both made cross citizens arrests (alleging battery) on each other.

Sadly only Tyson was celebrated on camera as he was taken away from LAX in handcuffs.

The looming question is how much can a celebrity take in a provocation before taking action when they feel they are threatened or in this case a celebrity with family.

Tyson may be a hot head by nature, and given factor, you'd think a photographer that snaps photos of celebrities against their will would take that into consideration. The result was warranted by many accounts on the scene. Tyson claimed after losing his 4 year old daughter Exodus just months ago, he felt threatened to a point of needing to protect his 10 month old. The photographer in return claimed Tyson was trying to take his camera. If that's true, he had plenty of opportunity after taking down the photographer but did not.

Tyson was taken to a holding cell at the airport and was cooperative with authorities. The paparazzi was taken to a local hospital to treat the laceration to his forehead which he sustained when he fell after being struck by Tyson. After release he was then booked, but his name is still not been publicized.

When officers arrived at LAX, Tyson was taken in handcuffs to a local LAPD station. His bail was set at $20,000. Tyson's attorney Richard Schonfeld has already issued a statement: "Mr. Tyson did absolutely nothing wrong, he was a victim in this case. We look forward to vindicating him and pursuing his rights."

LAX seems to be a haven for paparazzi to exploit celebrities as Kanye West was in a similar incident last year and only recently had been cleared of those charges.

Tyson is on parole for a narcotics possession charge (and DUI) in Arizona and it is yet to be determined if this airport incident will result in a violation of his parole.

Celine Dion No Longer Pregnant

Canadian songstress Celine Dion has reportedly had a miscarriage. She and her husband Rene Angelil made an announcement in August stating that they were expecting their second child together from a successful cycle of in vitro fertilization, or IVF. They used a fertilized egg that had been frozen for eight years, harvested in 2001 when she was using IVF to conceive her first child, son Rene-Charles, now 8. She and her husband started trying for another baby in 2007 after she completed her residency in Las Vegas. However, the second pregnancy allegedly did not take, and friends of the singer have said, "While she and Rene are actively trying for a baby, she is not currently expecting."

PCM Review: Poo Log App for iPhone and iPod Touch

I recently had the opportunity to review an application for the iPhone and iPod touch called the Poo Log! Trust me, readers, it is exactly what it sounds like, the app allows you to record your bowel movements, down to size and shape, to find out more about your innner digestive workings! The app is based upon the best-selling book "What's Your Poo Telling You" by Josh Richman and Anish Sheth, MD.

Believe me it is certainly not the easiest task to take the time and effort to want to describe in detail, your own excrement, however I was surprised to learn quite a few legimate medical facts (followed by giggles) in the process! The app was simple to use, but I did feel a bit strange carrying the iPhone with me to the restroom each time that certain urge came on! For fans of bathroom humor, and those that want to learn some nifty facts this app is certainly worth checking out, however it may get a little "wiped" out after the first couple trips!

NBA Legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Battling Cancer

Former L.A Lakers star Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, 62, has announced that he has been diagnosed with a rare form of blood cancer, and has been battling it for the past year. He is currently undergoing treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia (abbreviated CML), but has said that aside from checking his blood levels on a regular basis, the disease "doesn't impact my life too significantly." He hasn't revealed his prognosis.

The basketball great has decided to make it his mission to educate others about the importance of the early detection of cancer, and has partnered with pharmaceutical company Novartis to travel across the country informing others about CML and other types of cancer. He is also launching a Facebook page, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Patient Advocate. He says, "I think it's possible for someone in my position to help save lives."

Tracey Morgan Loses Audience Members at Comedy Fest

Earlier this week it was Britney Spears running off concert goers over lip-syncing. Now Tracey Morgan of NBC's 30 Rock has offended comedy concert goers at New York's Comedy Fest at Carnegie Hall with his offensive language and culturally questionable jokes.

This week New Yorkers at his Carnegie Hall performance literally walked out of his performance. Over the course of his routine, more followed. Why? It appears most expected him to remain closer to his on-screen personality of Tracey Jordan from 30 Rock instead of his more hard hitting and vulgar uncensored performance style. From topics like drugs and pornography to mimicking sex acts, the category of offended concert goers was mostly middle aged women according to reports.

There were many surprised faces and little laughter at jokes such as, “Obama is really changing the White House, because he and Michelle will have the first presidential sex tape out.”

It appears many New Yorkers have forgotten that the last bastion of political incorrectness is stand up comedy and even the late George Carlin told far more off color jokes at Carnegie Hall in his many performances. Morgan reminded the crowd of this when he announced, “You want the clean Tracy? Turn on the TV.”

Jennifer Lopez Sex Tape

We really shouldn't be surprised. When Miss Purity Carrie Prejean has a sex tape, then it should come as no surprise that anyone can have one. Jennifer Lopez has one.

While the details may never be known, what is certain is that Mrs. Lopez has filed a whopping multi-million dollar complaint on her one time short term Cuban husband Ojani Noa during 1997 and into 1998.

Lopez is suing over both his kiss and tell movie and sex tapes. In her complaint she tips her hands that they have home movies together - erotic in nature. Her complaint states that Ojani Noa is planning a film, How I Married Jennifer Lopez: The JLo and Ojani Noa Story. That's a mouthful, I wonder if it has as much in it as its title.

It's not the first run-in between Lopez and Noa. Upon their divorce he was head chef at her restaurant, Madre's. He was fired and sued for wrongful termination. Then in 2006 she filed an injunction against him to stop him from writing a book about her. The court hit him with a half a million dollar judgment penalty. Why did the courts stop him?

While tell all books are not illegal in nature, and celebrities are not protected from libel in the same way common people are, the rub here is that Lopez's gripe is that Noa is violating a confidentiality agreement between them resulting in her $10 million dollar breach of contract suit. Included is her desire to have the courts halt his plans to make the movie or release the contents of the sex tape. One has to wonder if there is going to be another suspicious break-in at Noa's house where a copy of his sex tape or tapes go missing. This one is just heating up.

One has to wonder if they both need the money. Lopez's career has stalled with her fading youth while Noa has built nothing since his days as a waiter. The whole spat benefits them both, her with press him with income. And nothing kick starts celebrity like releasing a sex tape.

Steven Tyler Leaves Aerosmith

Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry has confirmed to the Las Vegas Sun that Steven Tyler has left the band. Perry stated, "Steven quit as far as I can tell." Rumors have been swirling in recent weeks about the possibility of the band replacing Tyler, their lead singer.

Apparently, Tyler has been distant and cold toward other members of the band. Perry stated, "Obviously, he hasn't been giving 100% for a long time. Frankly, the last few months I've been wanting not to rock the boat. I don't want him canceling more gigs. We really wanted to do these last four. We didn't want to call him out or get him pissed off for whatever reason. So we just let things lie."

Aerosmith celebrates their 40th anniversary next year. Perry is confident that the band will be successful with or without Tyler.

Agassi Confesses All on 60 Minutes

Andre Agassi gave a tell all interview on 60 minutes. He revealed a lot. More than anyone could possibly imagine.

He hated Tennis. "I don't ever remember not hating it."
His father felt school was unnecessary.
His image was a facade as his hair loss began at age 17.
He wore hair weaves which distracted him in play.
He lived in fear people would learn he lost his hair.
1994 French Open, his hair piece fell apart in the shower and his brother bobby pinned it back in place leaving him in mortal fear it would fall off in the tournament.
In 1995 his then wife Brooke Shields convinced him it was time to shave his head.
He turned to drugs out of apathy for life and became a crystal meth addict.
Felt he was in a marriage he shouldn't be in with Brooke Shields.
Started his career over on his own terms.

Agassi seemed to have lived a charmed life, but it was a life he lived for his family and not himself which ultimately cost him his own personal happiness.

It took fortitude for him to make changes in his life. From giving up his addiction to leaving Brooke Shields. Some will argue that his leaving Brooke made him a jerk, but he meant only the best for her and knew staying together was wrong for them both.

Ultimately Andre Agassi has done what many celebrities never do. He told everything before the press found out. He told the truth and he told it without making excuses.

Britney Spears Traumatised Over Being Caught Lip-Syncing Concerts

Britney Spears is not going down well, down under. Australian media is stating that fans at her concert in Perth Australia have walked out in numbers complaining they spent hundreds of dollars a 'cheap act'.

In response, Britney's tour operator, Paul Dainty reports "Britney is aware of all this and she's extremely upset by it."

However Paul wants to set the record straight on Britney's behalf saying, "She's a human being. I'm embarrassed, with such a big international entourage here with Britney, to be part of the Australian media when I see that kind of totally inaccurate reporting.

"It's the biggest lie I've ever heard. I'm so angry.

"We can take heat if there's something wrong and people can review shows badly - that's something you have to live with - but to say people stormed out of the show was an absolute fabrication."

The question is who do you believe? Britney's camp or the media armed with quotes from concert goers? Take for example, Kathy Wright's claim to the Perth Sunday Times, "It was just really bad." While another fan reported to Nine Network, "People are paying for it and have come here so she should sing."

How did this all come about? Last week, NSW Fair Trading Minister Virginia Judge started the lip-sync debate after she told The Daily Telegraph that Sydneysiders would not tolerate a "Mickey Mouse performance" from Spears. In response the Australian media has been quick to find naysayers to bolster the Trading Minister's arguments.

The fact that Spears performs with lip-syncing is actually a known fact according to Dainty whom plays off with this statement, "It's been all over the Internet for nine months. This show isa bout an incredible spectacle, which it is."

Well see if the Australian media dogs her as her next concert performance will be in Melbourne, then Sydney, Brisbane and across the continent to Adelaide.
