- Mariah Carey has a cameo role in the just-released Adam Sandler film You Don’t Mess With The Zohan, where she plays what she calls, "an exaggerated version of me," singing the National Anthem dressed in a cleavage-baring hot pink minidress, followed by an over-the-top diva scene in her dressing room. Umm…what’s exaggerated about that?
- Idol champ David Cook says a group of older female fans, calling themselves "Cougars For Cook", don’t bother him at all, adding, "There is something very sexy about an older woman. I don’t know what it is." His mom probably does–which is probably why it definitely bothers her…
- Britney Spears reportedly will pop up in an upcoming Pussycat Dolls video, but she apparently neither sings nor dances in it. So does she play a receptionist?
- Jessica Simpson’s foray into country music–the single Come On Over–has done well on the charts, but she says that some country fans "think that I’m stepping on their territory, and I’m not really trying to do that at all. I’m just trying to make good music." Try wearing that Dukes Of Hazzard outfit and they’ll come around…
- Samuel L. Jackson has cut a deal with a CBS production company to develop and executive produce several projects, although it’s uncertain now whether he will appear in any of them. It all depends on how many parts require an angry black man in them…
- Internet gossip claims that Miley Cyrus is dating one of her backup dancers, a 22-year-old named Marshall. That probably came from the same source that told Entertainment Tonight Angelina Jolie just had twins…

- Britney Spears’ attorney says she is not yet fit to participate in court matters in her conservatorship case, which has another hearing scheduled for July. That’s just legal talk for "I’m not bailing on this cash cow anytime soon!"…
- The two Davids of American Idol are both doing pretty fair in the world of digital download sales, as Billboard reports that winner David Cook has 17 songs on its Hot Digital Tracks chart and runnerup David Archuleta has 14 on the chart–largely a result of iTunes’ decision to begin making sales data public…
- Clay Aiken is apparently going to be a father, as a spokesperson for producer David Foster said that Foster’s sister had been artificially inseminated by Aiken, who is a long-time friend of hers. It’s a wonderful gesture and not too surprising really–Clay probably had no interest in doing it the usual way…
- The wife of Bill Murray filed for divorce May 12, claiming he physically abused her and reportedly told her in November that she was, quote, "lucky he didn’t kill her". That Bill–such a kidder…
- Supermodel Naomi Campbell was charged with assaulting two police officers at London’s Heathrow Airport last month. She must think she can throw a cell phone at anybody…
- Sharon Stone has apologized for her recent comments about China’s earthquake, saying she made inappropriate remarks and that she is willing to take part in the relief effort that continues there. I’m sure they’re willing to have her stand on the fault line and yell when it opens up…

- The paparazzi can’t wait for Miley Cyrus’ first kiss–that’s because pictures of it could fetch as much as $150,000, depending on whose lips they are. It makes me wonder what the price tag is for a shot of papa Billy Ray popping whoever tries it…
- American Idol winner David Cook is off and running as a successful recording artist, with his song The Time Of My Life already selling almost a quarter million downloads so far, as well as all 11 of his Idol performances hitting Billboard’s Hot 100 simultaneously–the most since the Beatles put 14 on the chart in 1964. We’ll just have to figure out what to call it–Cook-Mania sounds like a Food Network show…
- It’s another no-surprise celebrity pregnancy announcement, as the newly-hitched Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz went on the record that she is indeed expecting and it is, "truly the most joyous time in our lives". You mean besides finally getting a real singer in the family?
- Wacky American Idol contestant Sanjaya will soon be featured in a Nationwide Insurance TV ad promoting retirement planning. It makes sense, since he’s at about fourteen and a half of his fifteen minutes of fame…
- Former CSI star Gary Dourdan has pleaded guilty to felony drug possession charges, but his lawyer said he will do no jail time if he completes a 30-hour program. Maybe it should consist of all his camera time on the show, so he can reflect on what I’m guessing the dope has cost him…
- It looks like Eddie Murphy is next on the list of stars anxious to resurrect a successful film character, with plans in motion for a fourth Beverly Hills Cop movie that would be released in about two years. That gives us all plenty of time to watch movie #3–to remember why there shouldn’t be a movie #4…

- American Idol winner David Cook admitted on Live With Regis and Kelly yesterday morning that Season Two contestant Kimberly Caldwell went on a date with him recently, and that he hoped to do it again. He says they can bond over their shared experience on the show–and their mutual desire to torture Simon Cowell…
- Leona Lewis says British tabloid reports of her being engaged to her long-time boyfriend are not true, but she added that he’s still "the one" and he’s "happy and excited" about her success at home and around the world. The fact that he’s an electrician might help–there’s really no discount bin for conduit wiring…
- Ne-Yo told Billboard magazine he was surprised when asked to submit a song for a new album that Lindsay Lohan was working on, but added he was surprised to learn she did "a ridiculously fabulous job" on the tune. When it comes to ridiculous, LiLo has the market cornered…
- Mariah Carey is in Japan, where she will throw out the first pitch at a baseball game in the Tokyo Dome–it’s because the TV network airing the game is using a song from her new E=MC2 album as its theme song. Will someone have to explain to Mimi that this pitch is a low fastball, not a high C?
- The reports of Kelly Clarkson working on a new CD are true, and she’s getting some help from OneRepublic lead singer Ryan Tedder–who not only has penned hits for his own band but co-wrote Leona Lewis’ huge Bleeding Love. It’s a move that her label boss Clive Davis would approve–and in Kelly’s case, perhaps he did…
- Sharon Stone surprised and bewildered many with comments she made during the Cannes Film Festival that the earthquakes in China were "bad karma" because of the government’s treatment of Tibet. One of the nation’s theater chains there says it will boycott her films–which would be a real blow if she was actually making any that anyone was watching…

- Madonna put up for auction her purse and all its contents–including a makeup mirror, hair clips, tissues and lip gloss–at an AIDS charity gala late last week in Paris. The whole package sold for just under a half-million bucks–only the winning bidder was upset because he got the wrong color gloss…
- American Idol winner David Cook wasted no time making his mark on music buyers, grabbing the top 4 spots on iTunes’ sales chart since his win last week. It’s still early, but I think he’s already sold more than Fantasia and Taylor Hicks combined…
- OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder is a little upset about how Timbaland got credit for their hit Apologize, since Ryan wrote the song 5 years ago and the band co-produced it. But Ryan definitely isn’t upset about the money that the song has brought the group–which likely wouldn’t have come along without that Timba-brand…
- After a four-year wait, Usher returns with his new CD Here I Stand, in stores today. It features talents like Jay-Z and his new bride Beyonce, Will I. Am of Black Eyed Peas, and Usher Raymond the Fifth–that’s right, Usher’s 6-month-old baby boy can be heard gurgling on one track…
- Nickelback lead singer Chad Kroeger has appealed his recent drunk driving conviction in Canada, claiming that the breathalyzer test he was forced to take shouldn’t have happened because the arresting officer didn’t have a reasonable suspicion that he was drunk. In other words, it was a lucky guess that Chad was blitzed out of his mind…
- Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull may be a huge box-office success, but it has upset members of Russia’s Communist Party, claiming the film is historically inaccurate and paints a negative picture of Communism. They may have a point–Cate Blanchett’s "Boris And Natasha" haircut was a little extreme…
