Some of the world’s biggest wire services released yesterday that they’ve prepared for the worst. They have Lindsay’s obituary written and ready to go. – Typically it’s done for stars in their 70’s – like Regis Philbin. Journalist Rob Shuter said they completely scrambled for Heath Ledger and Brittany Murphy, but they’re SUPER concerned for Lindsay.

HE' S GAY??

You might want to sit down for this one. Ricky Martin is gay. He confirmed it yesterday, in a lengthy statement on his website. “I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man”. He regrets not saying it sooner but that it became a clear choice when he began working on his memoirs. Well now, they’ve compiled a LIST of 10 celebs who should just come out – they’d be much happier. Anderson Cooper, Queen Latifah, Chase Crawford (Gossip Girl), Kevin Spacey, Michelle Rodriguez from Lost and Richard Simmons (to name a few).

He says after 45 days of rehab he’s getting back to his old roots. He didn’t really go into personal detail, kept saying- it’s all in the police reports. When asked about how he’ll do at Augusta, he said he’s really excited to get back and play, he misses the guys a lot- but he’s most nervous about the fans- “It would be nice to hear a couple claps here and there.

MORE ON SANDRA/JESSE

More on the Sandra Bullock/Jesse James breakup…they’re saying there might be MORE women in the picture than just Michelle Bombshell McGee and that he was apparently telling people the whole marriage was a sham for publicity. He’s apologized…sort of. Loosely…barely, saying most of the allegations are "untrue and unfounded." Needless to say the story is still developing…

RYAN PREMATURELY TWEETED!

Ryan Seacrest is in a bit of hot water. On Wednesday night, after Lacey Brown was eliminated from the show, he grabbed his Blackberry and tweeted that she’d be on his show the next day. Here’s the thing. The West coast hadn’t SEEN the show yet, so it ruined the results…and the ratings plummeted- the smallest ever for a "regularly scheduled in-season episode". They’re trying to decide if there will be repercussions.


THE BACHELOR IS INJURED??

Ladies, Bachelor Jake Pavelka is dealing with three pulled muscles in his back and blisters on his feet, but DON’T WORRY, he WILL push through the pain and compete Monday night on DWTS. How you ask?

MORE BOO HISS FOR KG

The bad reviews keep rolling in for Kate Gosselin on the set of DWTS. According to an insider, her pro partner Tony Dovolani is having NOTHING but problems with her, she’s a klutz, doesn’t listen, can’t take direction. The worst? She won’t let him lead. Apparently her bad behavior isn’t impressing the crew either, one of the lead makeup artists refuses to work on her, saying the only thing I’d do to her face is slap it.

CONAN TO FOX...

Conan O'Brien is getting ready to start his 30 city tour…and taking pit stops to talk to the networks, specifically FOX. They may very well end up getting him for a fall talk show. They don’t have as MUCH in the budget as NBC but things are looking good.

O IS HEADED TO TRIAL!

Oprah is going to court – the former headmistress of Oprah’s South African school is suing her for more than $250,000. Basically, back in 2007, there was a sex abuse scandal at the school – the headmistress the accused. I guess Oprah allegedly said she had “lost confidence” in her after the scandal broke, now the headmistress wants redemption. Oprah tried to have it dismissed, judge said no, so O has to rearrange show tapings so she can go on trial starting March 29th in Phili. Member her big mad cow meat trial back in 1998? Wonder if this will get as much hype?


BRIT IS BACK ON THE MARKET!

Britney Spears is single. She and her manager Jason broke up a couple weeks ago, it’s just leaking now. 3 theories: some say it’s because he publicly admitted that he hates her music, Brit’s friends think it’s because he took her to McDonald’s drive thru for Valentine’s Day and a few others believe she’s STILL in love with that Adnan paparazzi dude from a couple years ago. Member that gong show?? That’s what sent her to crazy town!


TIGER WOODS TO THE MASTERS

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING.

We do this about 2-3 times a day, I do it more…Jessica Simpson admits she NEVER does it. Like almost NEVER. SHE DOESN’T brush her teeth!! Well, if she does, she’ll sometimes use her sweater?! She said: "Y’all, I don't brush my teeth. No, really! I just use Listerine - and sometimes I'll use the sleeve of my sweater. "I do brush every now and again, but my teeth are extremely powerful. Fine, maybe when I'm 60”.

SHE'S A NIGHTMARE YOU KNOW WHAT!

Kate Gosselin has become the “nightmare B from hell” on DWTS. She doesn’t want ANYTHING to do with the other contestants, treats the crew like personal slaves and has BANNED Jon G from the set. Word has gotten out that she is being so obnoxious, that gay Olympic diva figure skater Johnny Weir cancelled his appearance on the show because he doesn’t want to work beside her. An insider says she’s obsessed with the spotlight and plans to be a huge star. Get this, she’s even comparing herself to a suburban version of Brangelina – TONS of kids but still manages to work away from the kids. Her next move is to be on All My Children. (ABC) too…

ANOTHER H-WOOD SPLIT

Another Hollywood split, Kate Winslet and her director hubby Sam Mendes. Totally amicable and by mutual agreement. Sam is now moving on to direct the next James Bond movie while Kate has 3 projects on the go.

COREY HAIM INVOLVED IN DRUG RING?

Here’s something you don’t wanna hear after the fact - Corey Haim’s name has turned up in an investigation into a fraudulent prescription drug ring. OxyContin. Looks as though he (and a group of others) may have illegally obtained prescription drug pads using doctors' stolen identities in order to write fraudulent prescriptions. On another note, the city of Toronto will be paying for his funeral, which is tomorrow.


THE BACHELOR NOT SO SQUEAKY

Jake Pavelka was spotted hitting on a woman at a Dallas Mavericks basketball game on January 13th. The only problem, he proposed to Vienna over 3 months ago. A witness at the game told Us Weekly that he followed the woman from her seat to the concession stand, took her by the hand and said, “You might have seen me on a TV show. I think you are so beautiful, and you shouldn't be standing here alone.” Add THIS to last months rumors and I am betting he and Vienna will NOT last past DWTS.

TIGER TO SOUTH PARK

The 14th season of South Park begins Sunday March 21st and the premiere episode is all about Tiger Woods. They were still writing the episode Friday night, but insist how concerned they are for Tiger and how they just HAVE to cover the issue. And not to worry Tiger, Tom Cruise and Michael Jackson have had their episodes too.

ALICE BREAKS RECORDS, ROBERT DOES NOT

Alice in Wonderland made another 62 million over the weekend, bringing the total to 208 million. That’s the most money Tim Burton and Johnny Depp have ever made together. So sad to say though, that Robert Pattinson’s movie Remember Me…didn’t do so well. 8 million only. One critic said- Pattinson actus like Luke Perry doing James Dean in what may be the dreariest movie ever made. OUCH.

Friday, March 12, 2010

More details on Corey Haim’s death yesterday. Police say early indications are that Haim died of an apparent accidental drug overdose- they found prescription meds.

It gets worse, he had been sharing an apartment with his mom Judy, taking care of HER, cuz she had cancer, so BAD.

Get this, he has gone to rehab 15 times, admits that he would do coke then literally pop upwards of 85 Valium a day to come down….in 2007 he weighed over 300lbs…and…literally 9 days ago, on March 2nd, he was approached by the casting crew of Dr Drew to be on Celebrity Rehab - saying IT's the last show I'd ever do, I do NOT need help.

WHY THEY FORGOT FARRAH

He says that even though she was in a few movies, she’s best known for TV. He also said there were SO many screenwriters that died last year they ran out of room. He also said the amount of backlash would have been BIGGER had they put her in and NOT Michael Jackson. Still getting overshadowed.

LIKE MOM LIKE DAUGHTER!

Like mother, like daughter. Demi Moore gave her daughter Rumer (21) a pole-dancing lesson while they were at a Hollywood party a couple nights ago.

SPIRITUAL ADVISOR ANYONE?

Apparently the in thing to do in Hollywood is have a spiritual advisor. Gaga’s got one, now Ke$ha’s getting in on the action. I think taking it a step too far though, Kesha says she wears her own placenta around her neck every day because her past life regressionist recommended it – it gives her a second sight. I REALLY DON'T HAVE WORDS FOR THIS ONE!!!

They asked if they had chemistry right away…Miley said, yes, I think the thing is, we’re actually way deeper than normal people. How they think and how they feel . He’s very grateful for what he has, but doesn’t let it go to his head. I’m like that too”.

She also said she’s going to stop making music because it no longer inspires her.

(won 6 in total) – Avatar won 3.

Hosts – Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin…meh?

VERY predictable winners - MO'NIQUE, CHRISTOPH WALTZ, JEFF BRIDGES and SANDRA BULLOCK. (PS, how funny that Saturday night, Sandra Bullock won the Golden Raspberry (Razzie) Worst Actress Award of 2009) – she said she’s gonna keep them side by side.

Producers promised the show would be hip, exciting and a different take. The only things I found odd were:

· Neil Patrick Harris opened (Martin Short was supposed to join him but had a family emergency)
· That they said “and the winner is” - - breaking tradition of “And the Oscar goes to”….
· They forgot Farah Fawcett in the memoriam. (Dr T and the Women, Logan’s Run)- do you think someone's head is rolling today??

ALICE FELL DOWN THE HOLE, INTO A PILE OF MONEY!

Holy crap! Alice in Wonderland made $116 million dollars this weekend…a record for a 3D movie, even surpasses Avatar’s first weekend. Put in perspective, the 2nd place movie -cop drama Brooklyn's Finest made 13 million. YIKES.

JASON MARRIES MOLLY

Tonight Jason Mesnick marries Molly on The Bachelor wedding special. While that’s going on, Jake the Pilot is putting out rumors that he is trying to get back together with his ex girlfriend. He’s saying they broke up before the show, she’s claiming she has proof that that’s not true. Oh Mr Squeaky clean might not be so squeaky.

BACHELOR VIDEO GAME?!?

The Bachelor is becoming...A VIDEOGAME!!! Um Hmmm, this summer, you can buy it for Wii and DS – K, let’s say you want to go after Jason Mesnick- done. You can play alone (creepy) OR you can battle your BFF’s – try to sabotage them for one on one time to see who gets the final rose.

AVATAR...OR THE HURT LOCKER?

There have been 81 other Oscar ceremonies – that’s 14,850 hrs of TV.

Sunday, Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin will host. Front runners are Avatar and The Hurt Locker. Do you think the 6000 snooty snoot voting members will give it to Avatar because it’s changed the creative landscape of movies forever?

The front runners for the best-picture Oscar remain JAMES CAMERON's Avatar and the war drama The Hurt Locker, which was directed by Cameron's ex-wife, KATHRYN BIGELOW. Both films have plenty of competition in that category, since it has been expanded to 10 nominees.

The other best-picture nominees are The Blind Side, District 9, An Education, Inglourious Basterds, Precious: Based on the Novel "Push" by Sapphire, A Serious Man, Up, and Up in the Air.

Crazy Heart star JEFF BRIDGES is a popular pick for best actor. The category also includes Up in the Air actor GEORGE CLOONEY, Invictus star MORGAN FREEMAN, The Hurt Locker's JEREMY RENNER, and A Single Man's COLIN FIRTH.

SANDRA BULLOCK is the clear favorite to collect the best-actress Oscar for The Blind Side, though awards show expert TOM O'NEIL believes she's "vulnerable" because of what he describes as her "lightweight" performance. She'll contend with heavyweight competition from Julie & Julia star MERYL STREEP, Precious actress GABOUREY SIDIBE, The Last Station actress HELEN MIRREN, and An Education's CAREY MULLIGAN.

Kathryn Bigelow and Precious director LEE DANIELS both stand to make history in the best-director category. If Bigelow's name is called, she'd become the first woman to win the honor. Similarly, Daniels has a chance to become the first African-American to claim the prize. James Cameron, who won in 1998 for Titanic, is also a nominee for best director.

NEW SHOW FROM ACROSS THE POND

Tonight there’s a new show starting called Who Do You Think You Are? It’s not about people trying to pick fights, it’s actually a show that’s been on in the UK for 7 years, and now in the US. Stars like Sarah Jessica Parker, NFL legend Emmitt Smith and Lisa Kudrow find out all about their family trees. Secrets, skeletons in the closet – Ok- let’s try one episode…

ALICE IN WONDERLAND...IN 3-D

Alice in Wonderland -- Director TIM BURTON's 3-D fantasy is essentially a follow-up to the classic LEWIS CARROLL story. Here's the story- Alice is now 19 years old and is reunited with the Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat, and the other characters she first met when she fell down the rabbit hole as a kid.

The film is Burton's seventh collaboration with JOHNNY DEPP, who plays the Mad Hatter. ANNE HATHAWAY, HELENA BONHAM CARTER and CRISPIN GLOVER also star. Rated PG.

LINS IS NOT GONNA LIKE THIS!!

23 year old billionaire Mary Kate Olsen might have a new GF. Lindsay, hold onto your stockings, it’s your ex Samantha Ronson! Since breaking up with artist Nate Lowman a few weeks ago, MK's latest lover is reportedly Sam!

An insider tells US Weekly that they are smitten, spending Valentine’s Day weekend together…ordering food from room service inside MK’s hotel suite.

Oh PS – Lindsay’s writing her autobiography, nuggets to include: how much she loved rehab and how she might be in Playboy (to pay the bills).

ARE WE EXPERIENCING PPD?

Are we in a Post Paula Depression? The new Rolling Stone Mag is NOT loving Idol. Says, yah, the ratings are still ok, NO ONE is enjoying how much the judges are babbling this year– especially Ellen. They say she gets lost trying to ad-lib opinions, and when she get stuck, she weakly repeats Randy’s comments and makes lame jokes. Ellen, you’re not just a regular viewer” drop that angle. Are you still watching?

CAMERON THE GIANT CANADIAN DIVA

Fragile ego much? Yesterday we heard that Sacha Baron Cohen (Borat) and Ben Stiller had taped an Avatar sketch to be played at the Oscar’s Sunday night. Sacha was going to dress up as a female Na’vi, then they were going to speak in that language. He (Sacha) was also going to be a presenter. Well, when the production team heard about it, they all got SOOOO scared that it would anger James Cameron, they pulled the sketch and canned him from even presenting.

All their citing is “creative differences”.

GILLIGAN'S ISLAND CASTING CONTINUES...

More on the Gilligan’s Island movie –it really appears that Warner Brothers is moving ahead with making it – apparently they’re now wooing Michael Cera to play Gilligan.

McSTEAMY HAD A McBABY

Congrats to Grey’s Anatomy McSteamy (Eric Dane) and his wife Rebecca Gayheart (who I still just remember as Antonia on 90210) had a baby girl yesterday – no Mcname announced yet.

I HAVE AN IDEA...LET'S ORDER A STUN GUN!

Did you hear about the stun gun incident in the Jackson mansion? Well, Jermaine’s 13 yr old son Jaafar ordered a stun gun online. Then, he tested the stun gun on a piece of paper…but the original plan, was they bought the stun gun to stun Blanket – Michael’s youngest kid!!! (WHO IS 8). It’s now been taken away and reports are that the kids didn’t get to Blanket and didn’t even really get to play with their new toy.

Needless to say the LA County Department of Children and Family Services is investigating it all. Ok – I have questions. Can you order a stun gun online – like a George Foreman? PS- there are over 14 of them living in the house, they're bound to get up to some crazy antics!


KATE DANCES, JON STRIPS

While Kate Gosselin is having a dance studio built in her basement (for DWTS – which ps she’s getting $100,000 for), her ex Jonny boy is trying to appear in Playgirl. I know. He’s attempted, and sadly, they’re sorta considering it, but they’d only give him $20,000 – saying it’d be more of a novelty than an actual sexy shoot." Ouch.

AVRIL IN WONDERLAND

Avril Lavigne is pretty excited, her clothing line Abbey Dawn is teaming up with Disney to release a limited edition collection inspired by the movie Alice in Wonderland. March 5th, same day the movie opens. Mmm, I just looked at the clothes. Hoodies that say Shrink Me and pinstriped twill shorts with suspenders.

WILL IT BE A 3 HOUR MOVIE?

OMG guess what’s becoming a movie. Gilligan’s Island. Who on earth would be cast? Fat white guy Skipper, skinny goof for Gilligan, the professor could be George Clooney. The Howell’s – Meryl Streep?

OPRAH GETS CHATTY

It’s Oprah central today, first she’ll ask Jessica Simpson – “How do you feel about what John Mayer said about you”…then tonight O has her pre-Oscar special where instead of Oprah interviewing the stars, the stars interview each other. OOOOHHH...Rich famous people in their natural habitat.

The game is the most-watched television broadcast in Canadian history. Now in the states, NBC is cheering, 190 million people watched NBC coverage, 2nd only to Lillehammer. (Nancy Kerrigan/Tonya Harding)

KE$HA AND JOHN MAYER??

KE$HA and John Mayer are canoodling a bit on Twitter. Sunday night he wrote, "Dear Ke$ha, you have won me over and I must tell you, I really like your song. Though I must add, I tried brushing my teeth with a bottle of Jack and I chipped a tooth on the glass. Where might I remit an invoice?" Ke$ha responded with some flirting and said that for a birthday present, she wanted "peace on earth as well as a baby whale with a lasso and an eye patch. Random meet random.

PARENTHOOD TAKE 3...

Ron Howard’s movie Parenthood comes to TV tonight…this is the 2nd time they’ve tried it as a TV show, you might remember back in 1990 the critical flop with a very young Leonardo DiCaprio and David Arquette. Oh and Where the Wild Things Are is on DVD.

WILL GOSSELIN DANCE?

We find out the cast of DWTS tonight, but you have to sit through the entire 2 hour Bachelor finale cuz they’ll give us little snippets at every commercial break. Now you may want to sit down for this one. The Monday rumor mill is reporting that Kate Gosselin might be one of the contestants and is currently under a shroud of security at the Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons Hotel, rehearsing her dance steps with no children to be seen. Oh and she CANNOT dance.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUSTIN BIEBER (16) and KE$HA (23)

Ever wonder why Ke$ha put the $ in her name?

I WAS TALKING TO ONE OF MY FRIENDS ONE NIGHT 'CAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE ANY, I LITERALLY HAD TWO DOLLARS, LIKE, COULDN'T BUY MYSELF, I REMEMBER VERY SPECIFICALLY, A TACO. I WANTED A TACO AND I COULDN'T AFFORD IT. AND I HEARD MY VOICE EVERYWHERE AND I JUST GOT REALLY FRUSTRATED AND I WAS LIKE "THIS IS RIDICULOUS!" AND SHE'S LIKE "WHATEVER! YOU'RE MONEY! YOU DON'T NEED MONEY!" AND SHE'S TOTALLY RIGHT.


THE BIG BACHELOR FINALE- ***READ AT OWN RISK***

KEEP IN MIND IT'S NEVER 100%. Ok- we’re hearing that Ali is DEFINITELY the Bachelorette and she will be “unveiled” during the After the Final Rose special. (and she’ll be on Jimmy Kimmel).

We’re also hearing that at the After the Final Rose special (taped last Sunday night), we see that….DRUMROLL…Jake and Vienna ARE together and ARE ENGAGED!!! Now, the big question, will it last?

EVERYONE IS SAYING NO WAY, in fact, place your bets now that if they DID get engaged, they will be broken up by the time Ali's Bachelorette Season starts in May and he'll come back on to try to WOO her back!It’s SOOOOOOOO NOT OVER FOR JAKE AND ALI!
