‘Jersey Shore’ — New Chick Drops the N-Bomb
by tmz on Jul.28, 2010, under TV
She hasn’t even appeared on the show yet — but the new chick on “Jersey Shore” is already up to her spray-tanned neck in controversy … after a video surfaced in which she drops the N-bomb.
The foul-mouthed female is Deena Nicole — the same chick who sucked down a beer bong with Snooki in Seaside Heights this weekend.
Turns out Deena recorded a video blog on her MySpace page back in 2008 — in which she rants about the way she’s been treated by some dudes … swears revenge … and then says to the camera, “we’re gonna play you out, n**ga.”
Sources close to production confirm Deena will be appearing in a number of episodes during the third season of “Jersey” … but she isn’t considered a “permanent” cast member.
MTV had no comment on the N-bomb situation.

Oksana Ready to Sue Mel Gibson Over Music
by tmz on Jul.28, 2010, under TV
There’s a new legal war brewing between Mel Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva — and this one’s over her music … which she can’t release without his signature.
Sources close to Oksana tell TMZ that she’s prepared to sue Gibson to release a CD’s worth of new music that he executive produced and co-wrote.
As we first reported, Mel’s not in the mood to sign over his publishing rights on the music because his team believes Oksana’s trying to destroy him.
At this point, Mel letting Oksana release a CD and go on a promotional tour would be like Obama letting Kim Jong-Il borrow a nuclear warhead.
Our sources on both sides, say the music matter will most likely land in court — or become a high-priced bargaining chip in negotiations for a financial settlement.
And the band played on..

by Kavy on Jul.28, 2010, under Actress
Jessica Biel was “one of the guys” on the set of ‘The A-Team’.
Despite being the only girl on set, the 28-year-old brunette beauty – who plays military hardliner Charisa Sosa in the reimagining of the 80s TV show – loved being surrounded by macho guys all day.
Speaking at the UK premiere of the movie at the Empire cinema in London’s Leicester Square, Jessica told BANG Showbiz: “I was pretty much just one of the guys. Our director Joe Carnahan just made everything so comfortable. So I never felt like an intruder coming into a boys club. And the guys are so nice and so kind and so professional and really behaved themselves. We had a really great time.”
The actress – who is currently dating pop heartthrob Justin Timberlake – was also more than happy to shoot her romantic scenes with Bradley Cooper, who plays Templeton ‘Face’ Peck.
She said: “Kissing Bradley Cooper? Well somebody has to do it!”
Jessica was joined on the red carpet by all of the film’s main cast, including Bradley, Liam Neeson, Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson and Sharlto Copley.
Liam – who plays John ‘Hannibal’ Smith in the film – admits he would love to work on a sequel if the opportunity arose.
He said: “Oh I’d love to do a sequel with the guys. They’re a great bunch.”
Other stars to walk the red carpet for the premiere included Katie Price’s husband Alex Reid, ‘X Factor’ runner-up Olly Murs and former boxer Chris Eubank.

Why Simon Cowell wants Cheryl Cole 2 Stay Single?
by Alice on Jul.28, 2010, under Artist, Singer
Simon Cowell wants Cheryl Cole to stay single.
The music mogul has reportedly ordered the 27-year-old singer – who is a judge on his UK TV show ‘The X Factor’ – to curb her rumoured romance with dancer Derek Hough in order to concentrate on getting back to full health after recently been stricken with potentially-fatal malaria.
A source told Reveal magazine: “Simon has had serious words with Cheryl and gave her a list of things she needs to sort out.
“He’s demanded that she puts her love life on hold – he feels Derek is a distraction that she simply doesn’t need. Derek is always hanging around on set with her and Cheryl is constantly trying to keep him happy.”
The 50-year-old star is also said to be planning to find a lifestyle coach to help the ‘Fight for This Love’ singer – who split from soccer star husband Ashley Cole in February following allegations he had been unfaithful – juggle her hectic schedule.
The source added: “Simon wants Cheryl to accept more help, rather than try and battle on by herself.
“He told her everyone in the US has a lifestyle guru and that he will get someone to work with her.
“Cheryl hates the idea because she is a very private person, but Simon is insisting on it. He believes having someone with her is the only way to guarantee she will eat, sleep and talk about her problems.”

Alleged MJ Love Child Surfaces — Wants Money
A woman who claims to be Michael Jackson’s illegitimate love child — conceived when MJ was a minor — has filed legal documents claiming there was a diabolical plot to cover up her existence … involving murder, abduction and Diana Ross’ sister.
The alleged MJ spawn — Mocienne Petit Jackson — has filed documents with L.A. County Superior Court claiming she will surely be in line for a serious inheritance check … if a judge will give the go-ahead on a DNA test.
Here’s the story — MPJ claims back in 1975, 17-year-old Michael Jackson secretly impregnated her mother Barbara … who happens to be Diana Ross’ sister.
MPJ claims when she was 9-years-old, Katherine Jackson hatched a plan to “abduct” MPJ and send her to Belgium to protect Michael’s “reputation.” She claims all 7 of her abductors were later murdered.
Now MPJ — who currently lives in the Netherlands — has decided to come forward with her story … so she can “formally claim my part of my father’s inheritance.” She also wants custody of MJ’s kids so she can give them a “more normal life.”
MPJ also claims she was diagnosed with Vitiligo … so, there’s that.
Calls to Diana Ross, Barbara Ross and MJ’s camp have not been returned

Justin Bieber always eats candy before going on stage.
The teen pop sensation is currently on his North American ‘My World Tour’ and it has been revealed he likes to get a sugar fix before stepping out on stage.
UsMagazine.com reports the 16-year-old singer’s “pre-show snack favourites include Sour Patch Kids and Gummy Worms”.
Amazingly Justin, his road crew, musicians, dancers and anyone else connected to the tour get through 10,000 French fries each day and 75 Starbucks drinks.
And a mammoth amount of equipment and instruments are used to stage each show, including 30 miles of electrical cable, 20 rolls of electrical tape – the equivalent of 3,330ft – 20 guitars, 14 drum sticks and 10 disco balls for the set.
It takes 11 buses to transport all the personnel and over 500 cases are used to store the tour gear.
Justin performs in Kansas City tomorrow night (28.07.10), before moving onto Memphis at the weekend.
After completing a host of dates in the US he then makes his way to Canada before heading back to America at the end of August.

Why Heidi Montag Dropped Out — Reality TV show?
by Kavy on Jul.27, 2010, under TV
Heidi Montag has dropped out of starring in a reality TV show with her best friend.
The blonde star had planned to appear in a series with her ‘Hills’ co-star Jennifer Bunney after moving in to her Malibu home this summer.
But Jennifer has revealed on her blog: “Originally I was supposed to do a reality show with Heidi , but right now it looks like some things have changed.”
She has denied the pair have had a bust-up and claims Heidi has simply changed her mind – saying she doesn’t know if she “wants to be in a reality TV series at the moment with everything going on in her personal life”.
She added: “No we are not in a fight and no Heidi is not ‘dropping’ me to do reality shows with the twins.”
Heidi – who has had multiple plastic surgery procedures – had been rumoured to be planning a show with Hugh Hefner’s ex-girlfriends, twins Kristina and Karissa Shannon.
The star had also talked about launching a music career after having the “best summer” of her life following her split from her husband Spencer Pratt.
She has been working on a second album with Steve Morales – who has previously worked on records with Destiny’s Child and Christina Aguilera.
Disappointed Jennifer, meanwhile, says her reality TV show is still going to air in January despite Heidi dropping out.
She said: “Although I wanted to do this project with her, I also respect that she has a lot to deal with right now and have to decided to go ahead and move forward with it alone… My hope is that she will want to be involved later on.”

Paris Hilton’s — Nazi Salute?
by Alice on Jul.27, 2010, under Socialite
Paris Hilton has been accused of giving a Nazi salute while partying.
The hotel heiress was at a boat party in St Tropez, in the South of France, when she appeared to make the infamous fascist gesture and put a finger on her top lip in apparent joke reference to the late dictator of Germany Adolf Hitler – who had a moustache.
Paris was wearing a red military hat when she made the apparent salute.
An onlooker said: “She stretched out her arm and raised her finger to her top lip, just like many people have done over the years to mock Hitler. Maybe she meant something else.”
However, Paris’ representative has denied she was making a reference to the Nazi party – which was responsible for the genocide of millions of Jews in the Holocaust.
A representative for the 29-year-old socialite said in a statement: “She was dancing and having fun with her arm up in the air, as she always dances like that, and was scratching her face when a photo was taken.
“These photos of Paris have been completely misrepresented. She did not make a reference to Hitler.
“The hat was not a communist hat, it’s a military-style hat from a club. Half of her family is Jewish and many of her friends are as well. She is extremely upset by these allegations.”

Lawyers to Lindsay: How Was Your Strip Search?
If Lindsay Lohan got strip searched at Lynwood Correctional Facility a couple of lawyers want her to spill every detail of the experience in a deposition.
TMZ has learned Lindsay’s name just got dragged into a class action lawsuit that alleges unlawful strip and body cavity searches were conducted by L.A. County Sheriff’s deputies when another inmate — not Lindsay – checked into the jail.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs filed a request in Federal Court on Monday to take Lilo’s deposition while she’s behind bars. They also sent a letter to Lohan’s attorney Shawn Chapman Holley asking if Lindsay would agree to be deposed.
The suit claims that female inmates are strip searched in plain view of each other in a parking lot that is neither private nor sanitary.
Sheriff’s officials have said Lindsay was treated just like any other inmate when she arrived at the jail.
So, will Lindsay tell all? Chapman Holley hasn’t gotten back to us yet.

Gibson’s Racist Rant Triggers Immigration Complaint
TMZ has learned Mel Gibson got ratted out to the government after an immigration group heard him use a derogatory term for illegal aliens — and the complaint could spark an investigation into who’s working for Mel.
The San Diego Minutemen tell TMZ they dropped a dime on Mel with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) because they heard him refer to one of his domestic workers as a “wetback” during the secretly-recorded rant at Oksana Grigorieva.
The Minutemen are volunteers whose mission is “to demand maximum border security and immigration enforcement” — and we’re told Gibson’s use of the epithet led the group to wonder if he is employing illegal immigrants. So they called the ICE hotline last week to report Gibson.
The Minutemen tell TMZ they were told an investigation would be opened.
A rep from the Los Angeles ICE office could not be reached for comment. Same for Mel’s rep..
