- TimbalandW is turning his attention from the music business to the movies–he’s working with another outfit to co-produce a film called Vinyl, which is, surprise, about a band. So, let’s see if we can figure this out–he’ll make the movie a big success, then take all the stars from the movie and produce films for them that will make them big successes, and then he’ll mix and match them with other stars to make even more successful movies–any questions?
- Kanye WestW talked to People magazine on the anniversary of his mom Donda West’s death, and told them that he feels responsible for what happened to her, explaining, "I feel like I moved to California, and then my mom [did too], and she did stuff she wouldn’t have done if we’d stayed in Chicago." I rarely dispense advice, but maybe some is in order here: dude, all you’re responsible for is what you do with the life you have now that she’s gone–if what you do and who you are can honor what she saw in you, not only will she live on, but she’ll live in you…
NBC’s annual Christmas In Rockerfeller Center special includes some pretty special music when it airs December 3, including Beyonce, The Jonas Brothers, Idol’s David Cook, plus Faith Hill, Rascal Flatts and that amazing opera singer who won America’s Got Talent. Al RokerW from The Today Show will host again, and the live show will again conclude with the lighting of the big tree just off 49th and 5th–and about the only thing that can outshine that old peacock…
- Michael JacksonW has turned over Neverland RanchW to the company who helped keep it from foreclosure, although it will be a joint venture between Jacko and the real estate investment company affiliate who’s taking control of it. Whatever tlheir plans for the place, there is definitely some de-creepiness that has to be done first…
Jennifer AnistonW is still answering questions about comments she made in a Vogue interview about her ex Brad PittW and Angelina JolieW–she told Oprah on today’s show that she was just answering the reporter’s question about how it made her feel to hear Jolie describe the way she and Pitt fell in love in 2004, saying the remarks "were really uncool". Personally, the only thing she really needs to answer is how she learned to behave like such a grown-up in a town so full of overgrown babies…
- A former executive producer of American Idol isn’t a fan of the new season’s plans to include a fourth judge–songwriter Kara DioguardiW–to the additional mix of Simon, Paula and Randy, saying, "I think once you’ve been told, ‘You suck,’ you don’t need to be told another three times." No worries–I’m sure Paula will make up for it by trying to date as many of the contestants as possible…

- Madonna launched the US leg of her Sticky And Sweet tour Saturday from New Jersey’s Izod Center, and the consensus of reports suggested her show is more acrobatic than erotic. She was impressive by all accounts, but how sleazy can a 50-year-old mother of two really be?
- Crunk king Lil’ Jon, one of Britney Spears’ collaborators on her upcoming Circus CD, told People magazine that the album has the goods to put her back on top, adding, "It’s going to be a big album. Britney is very intelligent and she’s really set up [for success]. She is focused and she wants it again, so it’s definitely going to happen for her." That’s high praise indeed–not to mention nice to know he can say more than just "Yeah!"…
 The Jonas Brothers say that the inspiration for their current single Lovebug was the movie Juno, as Nick explains, "Juno was one of our favorite movies at the time, and the soundtrack is…kind of odd, so we decided to put those elements in the song, and it came [together] very nicely." America’s favorite clearn-cut heartthrobs inspired by a wacky pregnant teen–has anybody told the suits at Disney?
- Janet Jackson continues to postpone concerts on her Rock Witchu tour, with performances in Greensboro, North Carolina Saturday, Atlanta Sunday, and Fort Lauderdale Tuesday delayed, along with shows in Montreal, Boston and Philadelphia–this after a doctor in Greensboro advised her not to perform because it was "evident" she had not recovered from whatever is ailing her. I certainly hope she isn’t turning back into Michael…
Olympic gold medal beach volleyball star Misty May-Treanor was hurt Friday and may be forced to end her competition on Dancing With The Stars, with a source stating that the injury to her Achilles heel would require surgery. Maybe the show would let her sub v-ball partner Kerri Walsh in–she looks good in a two-piece outfit too…
- The former headmistress of the school Oprah Winfrey owns in South Africa has filed a $250,000 suit against the talk show queen, claiming Oprah made defamatory remarks about her following reports that a female employee at the school was sexually abusing students there. Oprah has two choices–fight the suit tooth and nail, or settle and simply postpone her next shopping trip…

- Poor Diddy–gas prices are so high that even he can’t fill up–his private jet that is, which he says he now runs him a quarter-million dollars for a coast-to-coast round trip. It has forced him to do the unthinkable–fly coach. He gives a somewhat humorous report on his dilemma on his YouTube video blog:
- People magazine is reporting that Jonas Brother Joe and Taylor Swift are indeed a couple, which explains why they each keep showing up at the other’s concerts. The pair continue to insist they’re just friends–which actually only works the first hundred times you’re seen together…
It’s a new season of Saturday Night Live, kicking off September 13 with a very special premiere guest host that’s familiar to anyone who watched NBC’s most popular reality show this summer–Mr. Beijing Olympics himself, Michael Phelps. The Peacock Network says Phelps will be "making his acting debut"–which means that he’ll come out in his trunks and cast members Amy Poehler and Kristin Wiig will fight over which one gets to take them off…
- Plain White T’s and All-American Rejects are among the musicians invited by Denny’s Restaurants to help create a new late-night "Rockstar Menu", with both bands contributing a unique menu item available between 10PM and 5AM. The angle is that bands on the road are particularly qualified to understand the need for a great late-night meal–which, in Denny’s case, only happens when you’re utterly blitzed beyond belief…
Former One Day At A Time star McKenzie Phillips, whose tenure on the 70’s/80’s hit sitcom was affected by drug abuse, was arrested Wednesday at LA International Airport for–you guessed it–suspicion of drug possession. Maybe co-star Valerie Bertinelli will bail her out–as long as Phillips goes into rehab and joins Jenny Craig…
- An opera based on the 1986 film The Fly–where a scientist played by Jeff Goldblum experiments on himself and turns into a giant insect–will open in LA soon, and star Daniel Okulitch said at a press conference that he hopes this will win over new opera fans and help them, "not feel as intimidated". Oh, you mean about watching a bunch of egotistical maniacs sing to one another while one of them turns into an enormous bug?

- The Jonas Brothers oudid Miley Cyrus’ appearance on Good Morning America’s summer concert series Friday, drawing an estimated 20 thousand fans at New York’s Bryant Park. The boys have a distinct advantage–they’ve got screaming teenage girls and their moms who love them…
It appears that Britney Spears and MTV have a sense of humor about her most recent appearance at the Video Music Awards, thanks to a promo airing for this year’s show that features Brit and VMA host Russell Brand cracking jokes about sexual tension while an elephant looms large in the background–a clever reference to her horrible performance last year. I hope this ends the rumors about her appearing in this year’s show with the elephant so she’ll look good by comparison…
- Katy Perry has gotten a lot of flack about her hit I Kissed A Girl from people who say she’s corrupting young people with the song, and she explains in an interview with The Fresno Bee that she wasn’t trying to be deliberately provocative, saying, "I’m really just talking about my life. I did kiss a girl. That was my experience. The song is really about curiosity." She adds, "I’m like, ‘Honestly, you’re so worred about a little kiss, but then you’re gonna sing along to ‘Lick me like a lollipop?’ Amen…
- Clay Aiken announced Friday that his close friend and producer Jaymes Foster has given birth to his son, named Parker Foster Aiken. The two are not romantically involved, but plan to raise the child together–which will almost certainly give this child a wonderful sense of irony about the world…
- The entertainment world was rocked by two deaths over the weekend–comedian and actor Bernie Mac and the legendary singer-songwriter Isaac Hayes. This is really a terrible blow–not only were both of these men terrifically talented, but those poor South Park kids won’t know what to do without their Chef…
- Matthew McConaughey told CNN that he plans to fertilize an orchard by planting his son Levi’s placenta there, recalling how he had seen it in practice in Australia. Well, I guess that this is better than his original plan–to alternately eat it and rub it on his chest while saying, "All right, all right, all right"…
