  • Janet Jackson performing in Beverly Hills September 4, 2008Bad news for Janet Jackson fans–she’s postponed two more shows on her Rock Witchu tour following a mysterious illness Monday night in Montreal that sent her to the hospital briefly.  I certainly hope she feels better soon–otherwise her wack-job brother might get the notion to finish the tour for her–in drag…
  • Maroon 5 fans can catch their band on the tube Wednesday night on CSI:NY performing their latest single Goodnight Goodnight.  You should tune in early, because the performance will be at the beginning of the show–hopefully they aren’t the episode’s victims…
  • Dido is set to release her new CD Safe Trip Home November 4, her first in 5 years since her hugely popular Life For Rent, and a deluxe edition is available for pre-order on iTunes that includes bonus tracks and a video for her first single Don’t Believe In Love
  • ABC has captured the first ratings week battle of the fall season, placing Dancing With The Stars, Desperate Housewives and Grey’s Anatomy in the top three spots last week.  Meanwhile, the return of 90210 on The CW Network is on a downward spiral, with only about half as many viewers as the show’s premiere three weeks ago.  So how long will it be before we see the new-and-improved Dancing With Desperate 90210’s Anatomy?
  • Sharon Stone, displaying her considerable parenting skillsThe judge in the divorce of Sharon Stone and San Francisco newspaperman Phil Bronstein ruled that their son Roan remain in his father’s custody, largely due to what the court said was Stone’s tendency to "overreact to many medical issues"–like suggesting Botox injections for Roan’s foot odor problem and insisting he had a spinal condition when there was no evidence of it.  It does appear that there’s considerable evidence of a mental condition…
  • The moderator of Thursday’s vice-presidential debate, PBS reporter Gwen Ifill, says she still plans to do her job there–despite breaking her ankle while carrying prep documents for the debate down the stairs in her home.  She should have known better than trying to carry something as heavy as the complete text of Joe Biden’s last speech…

  • Britney Spears’ mom Lynn is now writing a memoir expected to be out this fall about her experience raising two daughters in the media spotlight–an effort her publisher says was put on hold when 16-year-old Jamie Lynn became pregnant.  That was probably also the point when it stopped being that mom’s how-to book…
  • Both Beyonce and her rap mogul husband Jay-Z made the Top Ten in Forbes’ annual Celebrity 100 list, with B at #4 and Jigga in at #7.  They may both be wearing the pants in that family–but whose have the deepest pockets?
  • Idol winner David Cook talked about the competition in a Rolling Stone interview, saying, "I was never in it to win it, and that took some pressure off me. If I’d gotten caught up in all that, I would’ve had a coronary."  For runner-up David Archuleta’s dad, that might have actually helped him…
  • Katy Perry of I Kissed A Girl fame told a website interview that she recently met Rolling Stones’ legendary lead singer Mick Jagger and that he tried to put the moves on her–only Katy was having none of it, saying, "(He) could be my dad. I don’t cross 60. The age limit’s probably 30."  Hers, or Mick’s?
  • People magazine says Mel Gibson and Britney Spears spent a few hours together at a Beverly Hills cigar club this week in what they described as,  "more of an ongoing guidance session than a business pow-wow."   He probably does have a lot to teach her–other than the benefits of Judiasm…
  • Grey’s Anatomy star Katherine Heigl took the unusual step of withdrawing from Emmy consideration, saying in a statement that, "I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination…".  She shouldn’t worry–I’m sure the writers will give her some great stuff for her death scene next season…

  • Hard Candy, Madonna’s 11th album, is out today and you can get a free preview of all the tracks on her MySpace page. But bootleggers should beware–anyone caught illegally downloading her music is subject to nonstop lectures on macrobiotic diets and the Kaballah
  • Jordin Sparks told MTV in an email that she’s almost healed from a vocal cord hemorrhage and that she should be back on tour in a few more days.  She wrote that full vocal rest for two weeks has been pretty tough on her, meaning "no talking, laughing, giggling and singing. Can I tell you how hard that is?"…
  • Britney Spears is definitely returning to How I Met Your Mother–she’ll be featured on the sticom in a May 12 episode.  She reportedly will have a lot of screen time with star Neil Patrick Harris, which will make him almost as happy as being called  "Doogie Howser"…
  • Saturday Night Live’s Amy Poehler, who stars in box office hit Baby Mama as a surrogate mother for co-star Tina Fey’s character, is actually pregnant herself.  So how often can an actor use a performance to enhance their real life?
  • Famed photographer Annie Liebowitz is defending that controversial photo of Miley Cyrus in Vanity Fair that Miley told fans she was sorry she did.  Liebowitz says the shot has been "misinterpreted"–but I wonder if she’d feel the same way if it was her 15-year-old who looked topless in a fashion magazine
  • Grey’s Anatomy suffered its smallest audience ever for an original episode when it returned last week, and star Patrick Dempsey suggested that the wirter’s strike was the reason.  It’s just a guess, but I think McDreamy is McDreaming

  • Gossip is reporting that Madonna was paid $10 million to allow her image and music to be used for an ad campaign that will include a spot on the Super Bowl.  What is she helping to sell–adoption made easy?
  • There’s talk that some serious celebrity pressure was brought to bear on Entertainment Tonight,  convincing them not to air a video featuring the late Heath Ledger talk about his drug problems.  In a world where the old saying, "there’s no such thing as bad publicity" isn’t a joke, a few of its biggest players decided there is…
  • George Clooney was officially named a Messenger Of Peace by the UN yesterday.  Many of his female fans are very pleased–but unfortunately for the wrong reason…
  • Grey’s Anatomy and film star Katherine Heigl was named the most desirable woman of the year by readers of AskMen.com, with Kate Beckinsdale, Eva Mendes, Scarlett Johansson, Jessica Alba and Rihanna among the Top Ten.  Joan Rivers also made the list–of Worst Plastic Surgeon Spokespersons
  • Fox’s new series The Moment Of Truth is getting a 13-episode extension from the network after turning in big ratings in its spot following American Idol.  Good for them–but my guess is that a test pattern would do almost as well there…
