- Amy Winehouse was released from the hospital Tuesday following an overnight stay, reportedly due to an adverse reaction to medicine. So, whaddya think–this is either the usual "medicine" she knows so well, or it really was a legitimate treatment and her body rejected it as something foreign…
- OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder, who’s been involved in writing material for Kelly Clarkson’s upcoming CD, calls it "amazing" and adds, "I’ve never been more excited about material that I’ve worked on with any artist, to be quite frank." High praise indeed–I wonder what Timbaland thinks of that?
- Miley Cyrus has hinted in a recent interview that the third season of Hanna Montana, which will begin taping in a few weeks, could be the last for her, although her reps have no comment and Disney reports that the network does have an option for a another year. I’m guessing she’s about to learn another important lesson–don’t cross The Mouse…
- Justin Timberlake decided to get the record straight about the trend in trucker caps, telling Fashion Rocks magazine that it was he–and not Ashton Kutcher, who JT says has been taking credit–who started the craze in blue-collar headware when he was 17. And to think of the sleepless hours I suffered over this…
- A Georgia family’s new home built by ABC reality show Extreme Makeover: Family Edition in 2005 is due to be put on the auction block, thanks to an ill-advised use of their home’s half-million dollar equity towards a now-failed business. The show’s staff is understandably unhappy about this, but you have to admit this is just a different kind of extreme makeover for these brain surgeons…
- American Idol host Ryan Seacrest had a Jaws-like experience over the weekend, when a fanged, cat-sized sea creature bit his toes while swimming in shallow water. Goodness–I hope his hair is all right…

- OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder is less than pleased that Idol runner-up David Archuleta is singing his band’s hit Apologize every night on the Idols Live tour, saying it’s "bizarre." I think what really bugs him is how Archuleta’s dad keeps calling to find out what else he’s got that his kid can sing…
- It’s no wonder that Madonna is unhappy about the book her brother Chris has written about her life–among the dirt he dishes, he says she has a huge picture of herself–displayed in full view of her kids–wearing S&M gear laying on a bed of dead animals, plus he claims that current husband Guy Ritchie is a homophobe. Sounds like somebody’s name is getting scratched off the Hannukah gift list…
- The Jonas Brothers seem to cause a commotion wherever they perform, and a recent show in Dallas was no exception–only it was Taylor Swift creating a buzz in the audience trying to watch the show. Based on how she was acting, she was more interested in getting the boys’ attention than the fans’…
- It’s finally Brangelina Babies time, as Angelina Jolie gave birth to twins–a healthy boy and a girl–Saturday evening at a hospital in Nice. They were named Vivienne Marcheline, which is Angie’s late mom’s name, and Knox Leon–named for where the money they get from selling the kids’ pictures will go…
- Miss Venezuela was crowned Miss Universe in Vietnam Sunday night, and for the second year in a row the Miss USA contestant managed to trip on her evening gown and fall on her keister. It’s aR lot of pressure for pageant owner Donald Trump–he doesn’t like being the "butt" of anyone’s jokes…
- The Wall Street Journal’s website reports that NBC Universal and Law And Order creator Dick Wolf are at odds over the way the network promotes and distributes his long-running and still-popular franchises. Wolf argues that the network overexposes his shows–which gave him an instpriation to get Madonna for an upcoming episode…

- 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…

- OneRepublic continues to tour, despite an Achilles tendon injury suffered by lead singer Ryan Tedder that he’s managed to re-injure–which explains why he’s doing just about every song in their set from the piano. He said it’ll take at least six months before it’s finally healed, but he’ll be off crutches in 6 weeks or so…
- Madonna, who is screening her Malawi documentary I Am Because We Are at the Cannes Film Festival, told a news conference there that adopting her son David was as painful and difficult to her as childbirth. Or at least that painful and difficult for her attorney…
- Rapper Ludacris and ex-Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee set a world’s record in Las Vegas–for showering, which they did with several hundred friends in a 96-by-38-foot enclosure. I think the correct term for that is orgy…
- American Idol suffered lower-than-usual ratings all season, but the finale was a big success–they topped last season’s audience and helped Fox become TV’s most watched network this past season. Great–as if we need Simon’s ego to be any bigger…
- Tom Cruise is a tad peeved with an L.A. luxury baby boutique–he claims that they have been publicizing that he and wife Katie Holmes spent nearly 400 grand there for daughter Suri, and had attorneys issue a cease-and-desist order on the grounds they violated the couple’s privacy. He probably doesn’t want people thinking he’s a cheapskate…
- Denise Richards added more dirty details about her total falling-out with ex Charlie Sheen, claiming that Sheen has sent nasty text messages to her–including one that reportedly said, "I hope you and your worthless retarded father get cancer and join your stupid mom [who died of cancer]. Rot in hell you [bleeping] whore." All I can say is that at least one of them has a very active imagination…

- Mariah Carey is apparently a married woman again, as a tourism official from the Bahamas said that Mariah and actor Nick Cannon were married on Windemere Island there last week and another source confirming the pair obtained a marriage license from another Bahamian island. Mariah has repeatedly denied it happened, but I hear Nick has told every single person he knows plus a large number of total strangers…
- OneRepublic lead singer Ryan Tedder injured his Achilles tendon badly enough that it required immediate surgery–he’ll be fine, but the band was forced to cancel or postpone the rest of the dates on their current tour. Ryan apologized to fans and said he hoped they’d be able to reschedule all the scrapped shows…
- Looks like Amy Winehouse will not be singing the theme for the upcoming James Bond movie Quantum Of Solace, as her producer says she is, "not ready to record music" and believes that completing the project would require, "some miracle of science". Perhaps Amy can help–she must know plenty about chemistry…
- An ad in Monday’s USA Today that attacks ignition interlocks–proposed devices that will meaure a drivers’ blood-alcohol level before permitting the vehicle to start–used Lindsay Lohan’s now-infamous DUI mug shot to suggest that it’s only people like her that need such technology. LiLo’s people were furious about the ad, saying they knew for a fact she had looked much better on several other arrests…
- Tom Cruise was on Oprah Friday for the first time since his couch-jumping escapade three years ago, and told her, "That was a moment, and it was real, and I don’t know if I would [do it differently]. I really don’t." I’m pretty sure that the people financing his films would be jumping on their couches if he tried it again…
- CSI star Gary Dourdan reportedly emailed a TV tabloid reporter to clear the air about his arrest on drug possession charges last week, claiming that the drugs found in his car were in the luggage of another person and that he was cooperating "in any way to clear myself and go on with my blessed life." He should consider himself blessed, putting his stash in somebody else’s property…
