Kim Kardashian has branded her brother Rob a “loser”

The 30-year-old socialite – who recently tied the knot with basketball ace Kris Humphries – hit out at her 24-year-old brother for not having a job, pointing out that even their younger sister Kendall, 15, earned more than him thanks to her career as a model.

In a new episode of the family’s reality show ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’, she said: “You’re a loser, Rob. Even Kendall earns more than you.”

After blasting Kim as a “w***e”, Rob – who is set to appear in the upcoming series of ‘Dancing with the Stars’ – calmed down and admitted he had to think about his future career path, and was even considering following in the footsteps of his late father, Robert Kardashian Sr, who represented OJ Simpson in his 1994 trial for murder.

Rob told his mother, Kris Jenner: “I need to think about what I’m going to do. All my friends are graduating from law school, that’s what I wanted to do, that’s what my dad did, but it’s too late for me now.”

Jermaine Jackson — Stuck in Africa

Jermaine Jackson cannot come back to the United States of America … because he owes a fortune in back child support … TMZ has learned.

Jermaine is currently in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, Africa. We’ve learned his passport has expired and he can’t get a new one, so he’s waylaid there.

Here’s what we know. n May 2008, Jermaine’s baby mama Alejandra got a child support order, requiring him to pay $3,000 a month. Jermaine went into arrears almost immediately and, as of last month, he owed $91,921.

Under California law, when someone owes more than $2,500 a month in child support, the State Department of Child Support Services automatically informs the feds of the delinquency, and the feds then flag the person’s passport. Once the passport expires, it will not be renewed until the person becomes current on child support obligations.

Our sources say Jermaine’s passport expired during his trip, he can’t get a new one and he’s stuck overseas.

If Jermaine doesn’t clear up the debt, it’s unclear if the American Embassy will come to the rescue.

Noel Gallagher (born 29 May 1967) is an English musician, best known as the former principal songwriter, lead guitarist, and occasional vocalist of English rock band Oasis.

He was raised with younger brother Liam Gallagher in Burnage, Manchester, Gallagher began learning guitar at the age of thirteen. After a series of odd jobs in construction, Gallagher joined local Manchester band, Inspiral Carpets as a roadie and technician in 1988. Whilst touring with the Inspiral Carpets, he learnt that Liam had formed a band of his own, known as The Rain, which eventually took on the name “Oasis”. After Gallagher returned to England, he was invited by Liam to join Oasis as songwriter and guitarist.

Oasis’ debut album, Definitely Maybe (1994) marked the beginning of the band’s rise to fame as head of the Britpop movement. Oasis’ second album, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? became a massive commercial smash. However, Britpop soon declined in popularity, and Oasis’ next three albums failed to revive its popularity, however the band’s final two albums Don’t Believe the Truth (2005) and Dig Out Your Soul (2008) were hailed as the bands best efforts in over a decade, which found the band renewed success. On 28 August 2009, following an altercation with Liam prior to a gig in Paris, Noel announced his departure from Oasis and on 23 October 2009, he confirmed he would embark on a solo career.

Noel Gallagher was often regarded as the spear-head of the Britpop movement, and at one point of time, NME termed a number of Britpop bands (including The Boo Radleys, Ocean Colour Scene and Cast) as “Noelrock”, citing Gallagher’s influence on their success. Many have praised Gallagher’s songwriting, with George Martin claiming Noel to be ‘the finest songwriter of his generation’.

The singer-and-actress – who has previously dated singer Nick Jones and ‘Twilight’ star Taylor Lautner – insists she would never date the 16-year-old pop star because it would be too “weird”.

When asked by Ellen DeGeneres on her chat show if she was romantically involved with Justin, she retorted: “Oh brother! He’s little. No, he’s like my little brother. It’s weird to me.”

The 18-year-old beauty recently admitted while she hasn’t been on a date in six months, she is happy being single until the right guy comes along.

She said: “Unfortunately, I haven’t been on a date in over six months. In hindsight, it doesn’t really seem that long between dates. The truth is I haven’t met anyone, but I’m young. I don’t need to have a boyfriend right now.

“Any crush or relationship is always a big ordeal. To get that one boy to like you and then if he doesn’t it feels like the end of the world. I figure that you will have about 1,000 dates until you get to your perfect guy.”

Joe Jonas has reportedly ditched his purity ring for Ashley Greene

The 20-year-old Jonas Brothers singer - who has previously romanced teen stars Taylor Swift, Camilla Belle and Demi Lovato – and the ‘Twilight’ actress have been spotted on numerous dates since July and now pals say the romance is heating up.

A friend told Life and Style magazine: “When they’re not travelling, they’re basically living together.”

Joe and his brothers Nick and Kevin – who married his long-term love Danielle Deleasa last December – hit the headlines for wearing ‘purity rings’ to represent their vow to wait until marriage to have sex. However recent sightings of Joe without his ring have led to speculation that his relationship with Ashley is serious.

The pair were recently being spotted enjoying an intimate dinner at The Ivy restaurant in London and attending a Kings of Leon concert together,

As well as meeting up in London – when Ashley was promoting ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ and Joe was supporting brother Nick, who was making his West End debut in ‘Les Miserables’ - the duo were also spotted having dinner together at The Alcove in California at the end of July, with the singer seen getting the actress’ bag from his car.

The pair – who met when they shot family drama movie ‘The Last Song’ in 2009 – have broken up after more than a year of dating, representatives for the Australian actor have confirmed, with friends of the singer-and-actress claiming she is too focused on her career to have a relationship.

A source told E! Online: “Ever since she left for Detroit to film ‘LOL: Laughing Out Loud’, Miley has been super focused on her work. Liam wanted more, but she’s 17 and has other priorities right now. He’s been a distraction. Miley’s not with anybody else.

“Liam visited her twice on the set and both visits were only about 24 hours in length, by Miley’s choice. She is not ready to settle down, and Liam’s not a happy camper. They’re both young.”

However, friends of the young stars have not ruled out a reconciliation in the future.

The source added: “To say they are done forever would be premature, but it’s safe to say for now they are doing their own thing.”

Speaking about their relationship earlier this year, Miley admitted their first kiss while filming ‘The Last Song’ made her realise she was interested in him romantically.

She said: “That kiss definitely triggered something. It triggered something in my head that made me realise this was going to be a lot of fun and it made me realise that one day you can feel bad and the next you can meet someone who is your soulmate or your best friend or whatever and that’s really cool.”

Susan Boyle

Susan Boyle’s Brother Fears She Will Be Assassinated Like John Lennon

John Boyle is terrified the ‘Wild Horses’ singer could be murdered by an obsessed fan like the Beatles star, and has pleaded for an increase in security after Susan found an intruder in her home on Tuesday evening (26.01.10).

He told The Sun newspaper: “I am very upset about the lack of security. The family have told them several times that vast improvements need to be made to avoid something like this happening.

“This is the second time something has happened to Susan at her home and it is extremely worrying. Susan is a massive world star and needs better protection. You look at what happened to John Lennon in New York – it’s really worrying.”

John died in 1980, after being shot by deranged fan Mark Chapman outside his apartment building in New York.

Susan was returning home with a female pal after she had spent the day in a music studio in London, recording her vocals for Simon Cowell’s Haiti charity single.

Despite being scared about the intruder, the 48-year-old star is adamant she won’t let the incident drive her out of her home in West Lothian, Scotland.

She said: “I’m not going anywhere – nobody’s pushing me out of my house. I’m absolutely fine but it was very concerning for everyone. I think he got more of a scare than I did because he ran off.

“The matter is in hand and the police have been excellent.”

Since the break-in, music mogul Simon Cowell – who does not manage Susan but has kept a close eye on her since she appeared on ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ – has arranged a team of minders to watch over her.

It is believed Susan is worried the man was the same one who tried to break into her house on December 21.

At the time the singer – who lives at home with her cat Pebbles – was so frightened she was forced to ring emergency services.

A source said: “Somebody was intent on getting in and didn’t care that she was in at the time. She’s worried it’s the same man this time too. It’s too much of a coincidence.”
