- 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…

- Mariah Carey will introduce a second signature fragrance called Luscious Pink, which she calls, "feminine, flirtatious and fun," and says it, "truly reflects where I am in my life now, after an incredible year." A new album, another #1 hit song, a new husband–I wasn’t aware that most of that had a smell…
- People magazine says John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston made their mostly-whispered romance public when they attended a charity banquet last week, reporting that the pair discreetly held hands under their table. I suppose that in some circles, it’s the equivalent of wild sex in the middle of the dance floor…
- Jesse McCartney, who teamed wih Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic to write the Leona Lewis smash Bleeding Love, says the song was originally creqated for his album but the pair decided it would fit a woman better. Sort of like letting a plumber wear a pair of capri pants..
- Talk of Michael Jackson performing in Las Vegas is heating up, with the investment firm that helped him hold on to his Neverland ranch considering at least one way that Jacko can repay them–by working one of the hotel-casinos they own there. I would urge caution, especially if they’re planning any "kid-friendly" improvements…
- Lindsay Lohan has asked to be removed from consideration for an Emmy Award nominaton for best guest actress in a comedy series, with a spokesperson saying, "her appearance was brief" in ABC’s Ugly Betty. It’s probably because the rebah facility she expects to be in by then has a very strict off-campus policy…
- I read that Lance Armstrong, who’s currently seeing Kate Hudson, took her to a New York restaurant with a reputation for a long waiting list and tried to get seated without a reservation–but to no avail. All I can say is that I wouldn’t want to be that maitre d’, taking a casual bike ride thru Central Park anytime soon…

- 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…
