Even though the producer told the story differently a little while back, Kelly Clarkson recently came in and explained that she will not be working with Ryan Tedder on her upcoming album. She did however have this to say about the record: “I’ve been working in the studio a lot for this next album & can’t wait for y’all to hear it! New favorite is You’re The Only One For Me.” It seems that somebody still has a few things to settle… or maybe not settle since Kelly Clarkson seems to try to point out how good her record will be without Ryan Tedder.
Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford took a break from the hit show to spend Memorial Day with his family.

With his shirt off, Chace showed off the toned body which has won him a legion of female fans in his role as Nate Archibald in Gossip Girl.

Twilight star Kristen Stewart has reportedly compared the experience of being photographed by the paparazzi to being “raped”.
The 20-year-old actress, who plays Bella Swan in the vampire franchise, said she hates being snapped and written about in the press, according to Aceshowbiz online.
“It’s so… The photos are so… I feel like I’m looking at someone being raped,” she said.
“A lot of the time I can’t handle it. I never expected that this would be my life,” said Stewart.
“What you don’t see are the cameras shoved in my face and the bizarre intrusive questions being asked, or the people falling over themselves, screaming and taunting to get a reaction. All you see is an actor or a celebrity lit up by a flash,” she added.
The intensely private actress, who is dating her Twilight co-star, British hunk Robert Pattinson, says she hates being judged by the articles written about her.
“Your little persona is made up of all the places that people have seen you and what has been said about you.
“And usually the places that I am are so overwhelming in the moment and fleeting for me – like one second where I’ve said something stupid, that’s me, forever.”
Here’s a way to bullshit the system… Lindsay Lohan is pretty smart for thinking of it. It seems there is a tea called Kombucha, that’s supposedly a very healthy drink and Lindsay Lohan is addicted to it, or so sources say. The deal with this tea is that it contains traces of alcohol so that explains why Lindsay Lohan likes it so much. Its founder, GT Dave had this to say about these circumstances: ”We are thrilled to be a part of Lindsay’s new found healthy lifestyle. But we’re not surprised she was photographed carrying our product. She’s actually been drinking Kombucha for over a year… great to see that she’s taking her health seriously.” Lindsay Lohan takes her health seriously about as much as Amy Winehouse does… maybe her British counterpart will get into Kombucha too.
Actress Katherine Heigl fought back the tears as she described how adopting her special needs baby daughter has sent her maternal emotions soaring.
The Grey’s Anatomy star, who welcomed Korean-born Naleigh with her husband Josh Kelley last September, welled up as she talked about her personal family struggles on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
“Naleigh has been beautifully perfect since the moment we got her, she sleeps all night, she takes three-hour naps, she is super independent and plays fantastic by herself for hours and just two days ago she started really working us over,” said the 31-year-old.
“She’s not sleeping, not playing by herself and wants constant attention.”
Dressed in an edgy black shift dress and patent knee-high boots, Heigl says she recently felt freaked out when a nanny painted the adorable tot’s finger and toe nails bright pink.
“It’s making me feel like she’s closer to those teenage years than she really is, I was like no, let’s not rush this any more than we have to!”
Referring to her overwhelming maternal instinct, she added: “It was like a slow dawning this feeling.
“Initially with her [Naleigh] I obviously loved her and I was very protective of her. I felt like it was my duty, my job to keep this child safe and happy and sheltered.
“But that duty starts to turn into this feeling that is overpowering and overwhelming.
“I don’t know how to explain it, it’s so strange but any time I see a film or television show that has to deal with anything tragic or hard or difficult between a mother and a child, my whole reaction is always …
“I used to just watch it and feel empathy but now the crying begins and I try to not cry because Josh mercilessly makes fun of me.”
After a seemingly never-ending legal war, the marriage between rapper Nas and singer Kelis is officially over! The legal documents, which were filed last Friday in LA County Superior Court, showed that the divorce has been granted. However, there are still a few more nasty battles in front of the former couple like child custody and spousal support. Nas has an order for him to pay over $10,000 for child and spousal support every month which the rapper claims he can’t afford. With all the legal fees they’ve racked up and the lack of a career, I actually believe him.
Angelina Jolie has been touted as a “perfect” choice to play the Wicked Witch of the West in a potential upcoming movie remake of the Wizard of Oz.
Hard on the heels of Alice in Wonderland’s big-screen success, several new versions of L. Frank Baum’s timeless tale are said to be in the works, including one that Angelina Jolie is reportedly “attached to” to play the Wicked Witch.
“Angelina as the Wicked Witch would be perfect casting,” Popeater quotes an Academy Award-winning casting director as saying.
“She is not only the biggest movie star in the world, but Angie is also a brilliant actress who isn’t afraid to play someone evil.”
Margaret Hamilton memorably played the Wicked Witch of the West in the classic 1939 film.
And a reasonable divorce it is. The Girls Aloud singer recently filled her long awaited divorce from Ashley Cole and the terms are very favorable for the soccer player… especially considering he’s the one that was caught with the pants down, so to speak. This is what a source related about Cheryl Cole’s filled divorce: ”She wants a completely clean break with no malice or wrangling over property or money. Cheryl will not take one penny of Ashley’s money. Crucially, people expected her to request their mansion as part of the divorce terms. But the house means nothing to her. Cheryl is giving the house to him.” Well now… anybody would be quite the fool not to accept those terms… and knowing Cheryl Cole’s soon to be former husband that might just happen.
In a recent interview, Avril Lavigne who has “FUCK” tattooed over her ribs recently spoke about the prospects of getting new tattoos and here’s what she said: “I want to get a big-ass-motherfucking tattoo on my forearm. I’m going to wait a few years and make sure I still want it then. I have to wait for that special someone to come back into my life. I want to do a big-ass heart with a flag through it with a name. I want it to be a huge experience and statement.” Really? A guy that made her tattoo “FUCK” on herself isn’t special enough? Avril Lavigne needs more? God All Mighty protect her from what she may consider getting as a tattoo then…
There is speculation that British actress Gemma Arterton will replace Megan Fox in Transformers 3, according to reports.
People magazine reports that a representative for Fox, who appeared in the first two installments in the action franchise, said yesterday: “Megan Fox will not be starring in Transformers 3.
“It was her decision not to return. She wishes the franchise the best.”
Other names being associated with the project include models Bar Refaeli, Miranda Kerr and Brooklyn Decker, The Wrap has reported.
Arterton has previously had big screen roles in Prince Of Persia, Clash Of The Titans and Quantum Of Solace.
Emma Watson has toured the Harry Potter theme park.
The 20-year-old actress, who stars as Hermoine Granger in the movies, joined her Potter co-stars for a behind-the-scenes tour of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando Resort in Florida.
She was joined by Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid), Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) and Oliver and James Phelps (Weasley twins Fred and George).
Watson, who is currently studying at Brown University in Rhode Island, was given a tour around the $200m attraction ahead of its official opening in June.
The tour started off by entering the village of Hogsmeade before moving on to some of the iconic locations made famous by the popular movie series. This included the Hogwarts castle itself, to the Three Broomsticks pub, the Weasley Wizard Wheezes joke shop and Honey Duke’s sweet shop.
Twilight star Ashley Greene has reportedly been offered a role in Wes Craven’s flick Scream 4.
Most of the leading cast from the first three films have signed up to return, with Courteney Cox, David Arquette and Neve Campbell already lined up to appear.
However, Empireonline.com is reporting that younger stars Ashley Greene, Hayden Panettiere and Rory Culkin have been offered roles as well.
Lake Bell, who has a role in Shrek Forever After, is reportedly already in negotiations to appear.
Greene, who is best known for playing Alice Cullen in the Twilight films, is lined up to play Jill, the cousin of Campbell and a new heroine.
Panettiere would play her nerdy best pal, while Culkin would try to fight for Greene’s love.
Prince of Persia star Jake Gyllenhaal has joked it was ’so hard’ to get in shape for the role.
The 29-year-old actor is taking on the role of Prince Dastan in the new Disney flick and he buffed up considerably for the part.
Gyllenhaal, who stars opposite Gemma Arterton, joked that it is a difficult task to tone up for a film.
He said to PEOPLE: “It was so hard. Being an actor is so hard. Being in shape is so hard, too, and being paid to get into shape is even harder – and you can quote me on all of those.”
Talking about the training, he added: “I like the focus. I’m somebody who likes to kind of keep moving. When you’re shooting a movie, the downtime is always the hardest thing, and when you get to be physical in between takes, it’s actually a good thing, I think, for any actor.”
The singer recently performed at the World Music Awards, but at a very high cost to the organizers, it seems. Jennifer Lopez had a number of requests in order to concede to the performance and these included a helicopter on stand-by, a specially equipped speed-boat with diamond plated headphones to take her from Cannes to Monaco and other some such things… but she turned down the offer for a butler. Jennifer Lopez probably didn’t want to appear too cocky. But really, wouldn’t it have been cheaper to just bring Mariah Carey over? It’s not like the music would’ve been too different.
Kate Hudson says she has accepted her body is not perfect and that she put on weight to look “plainer” for her new film.
“I’m pretty comfortable with my body. I’m imperfect,” the UK Telegraph reports Hudson commenting. “The imperfections are there. People are going to see them, but I take the view you only live once.”
Hudson also revealed that for her role in the upcoming The Killer Inside Me, she let herself gain weight.
“Right before then I had been working out a lot and had become super muscular, which I didn’t like either. It wouldn’t have been right for that part, I wanted to look plainer. Not glamorous.”
But, seeing herself on the big screen surprised the star. “I was shocked too. But I don’t like watching myself on the big screen at the best of times. I hardly recognised myself in this one.”

The pop princess was in Tokyo last month collaborating with Terrence Koh for a very special show with very special guests. For that show, Terrence Koh created a special piano for Lady GaGa and a five-foot tall bunny head and now that the items have outlived their purpose they’re up for auction. And what auction would be complete without the proceeds being donated to charity? Well for once Lady GaGa’s extravagance seems to have yielded some results… after all, who doesn’t want a giant bunny head in their back yard? You know, just to prove how good a neighbor they really are.
