Dirty Toe Jam of the Week -- Green Day "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)"

I know I had Green Day as the Dirty Toe Jam of the Week a couple of weeks ago in honor of their new album 21st Century Breakdown dropping, but I'm throwing them in again as a shoutout to my cousin, who's graduating from grad school tomorrow morning. Congrats on somehow convincing a college staff to give your mentally challenged ass a doctorate degree, Pat!
Enjoy a LIVE version of Green Day's Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) my peeps!

Kanye West Paranoid video leak!

So the good news? The video for Kanye's new hit Paranoid (featuring a VERY sexy Rihanna) leaked on the Internet yesterday. The bad news? He's saying it's an old and very wrong version. Check out the video below (sh*tty quality, but hey, that's why they call it a leak), followed up by Kanye's comments on being devastated that he wrong video leaked.



IT HURTS ME TO SEE THE OLD AND VERY WRONG VERSION OF THE PARANOID VIDEO GET LEAKED ALL OVER THE NET WHILE I WAS ON AN 11 HR FLIGHT AND COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT'S JUST FRUSTRATING WHEN THIS STUFF HAPPENS BECAUSE I REALLY CARE ABOUT THE PRODUCT AND SINCE VIDEOS NEVER GET PLAYED ANY WAY YOU MIGHT AS WELL TWEAK THEM AND MAKE THEM AS SPECIAL AS POSSIBLE. THE VERSION THAT GOT LEAKED FROM THE CAMERA PHONE LAST WEEK IS AT LEAST A LITTLE CLOSER TO THE FINAL PRODUCT. THANK YOU EVERYBODY FOR YOUR SUPPORT BUT THAT VIDEO WAS NOT UP TO MY STANDARDS.


Lucky for us, Kanye was so CAPS-LOCK-pissed-off that he posted 5 screenshots of the real video, which I threw up for you below.





Candy Spelling says Tori killed Aaron


The mother/daughter feud between Candy and Tori Spelling is no secret, and it's been a pretty steady feud for years. But Candy kicked it up a few notches during a radio interview yesterday and pretty much blamed Tori for Aaron Spelling's death.

My daughter one day decided that she wasn't speaking to my husband, myself and my son, and that's how it's continued for the last, oh gosh, four or five years. And it was sad, that's what killed my husband, actually. He just didn't want to live after that. He [had] just done everything he could possibly do for his daughter, and she wanted no part of him once he couldn't do anything for her. I've always been trying to work on the relationship. I don’t know what the anger is.

Yeah, because blaming your daughter for your husband/her father's death is REALLY trying to repair the relationship. Dumb old broad.

Pitbull punches fan on stage

Pitbull was putting on a show in Colorado the other day when things got a little outta hand and he ended up laying out one of his fans. And it was all caught on video. Check it out below, then you can hear Pitbull's side. The knockout blow comes at 11 seconds in.



So here's the deal. Pitbull said that the guy he brought up on stage then knocked out had gotten up onstage a couple of times earlier in the night and kept "making it rain." Pitbull said he didn't touch the money, but "just scooted it to the crowd" while he kept performing. Then later on, like the video shows, he pulled the fan back up onstage, and that's when he threw a wad of cash in Pitbull's face.

He made me feel [wild] like I felt back in the day. I'm in a profession now. I'm here to entertain. I heard he was a fan and he drove from a long way. When I saw the video, I said, 'Hell nah. He knew exactly what he was doing.' In any country when you throw something in somebody's face, it's disrespectful. When I looked at the tape, you could see he did that and was waiting like, 'What now? Yeah mutha----a, I just threw a wad in your face.'


I don't blame Pitbull at all. If someone threw money in my face, I'd knock his ass out too.

Piers Morgan defends Susan Boyle


It was just 2 days ago when I posted the story about Susan Boyle absolutely flipping a bitch in a hotel bar after hearing her biggest competition, Shaheen Jafargholi, belt out what Britain's Got Talent judge (and Susan's crush) Piers Morgan called "pound for pound the best performance we've seen in the semi-final round so far." Sources said she gave the double one-fingered salute to the TV, screamed out "F*ck you!" and stormed out of the bar. Piers is coming to her defense though, pretty much telling all of the same media who made her a star, to back the f*ck off.

My heart absolutely bleeds for the poor woman. Susan is finding it very, very difficult to cope, and to stay calm. She has been in tears many times during the last few days, and even, fleetingly, felt like quitting the show altogether at one point and fleeing all the attention. She's had to read stories and columns, and listen to radio and TV phone-ins, calling her arrogant, insincere, spoiled, fake, mad and so on. Becoming the biggest star on the planet so fast is a scary, unsettling, upsetting thing, as Susan has discovered. Let the increasingly unpleasant bitching and carping stop, right now. Please. She doesn’t deserve it. All she wants to do is sing well for everyone and hopefully try and win. She’s not a mass murderer, a thieving banker, or an expense-fiddling politician.

That settles it. Piers TOTALLY wants to swipe her V-card.

T.I. is NOT married


Since T.I. started his jail sentence in Arkansas, rumors have been flying like crazy saying that he and his longtime girlfriend Tameka Cottle got secretly married. T.I.'s rep has come out to say that the rumors are not true. T.I. and Tameka have 2 sons together, King and Major, on top of the 3 other kids T.I. has and the other daughter Tameka has. Even though they aren't married, T.I. is crazy about his lady.

She's very important. She means to me what my mother meant to me as a kid-somebody that you know [is] consistently there, has your best interests at heart, and if ain't nobody else there in the world...[she's going to] be there.

Makes you wonder if they're gonna tie the knot once he gets out of the slammer. Either that, or whether T.I. will knock her up again during a conjugal visit.

David Hyde Pierce secretly married!


While speaking out about the bullsh*ttiness that is Proposition 8 to the ladies of The View, former Frasier star David Hyde Pierce came out and said that he quietly married his longtime boyfriend of 25 years Brian Hargrove back on October 24th of last year. David is super pissed at the California Supreme Court and their decision to uphold the ban on gay marriages, actually saying that "it's none of your business."

Can't say I blame David for being upset at all. The gay community is pretty much being toyed with in California, being told gay marriage is illegal, then being told the ban is lifted and they're free to marry, only to be told it's banned again 5 months later. Not to mention, I think it speaks volumes when both gay and straight people from around the world, celebrities included, and putting Prop 8 on blast. The Court really botched this one.

Courtney Love sued by American Express


American Express is suing Courtney Love for $352,059.67 in unpaid fees and charges on her AmEx Gold, Centurion, and Platinum cards. You'd think she's floating up Sh*t's Creek without a paddle, but her lawyer fired right back at AmEx and pretty much called them dumbasses, saying that there's 104 credit cards taken out in Courtney's name.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that nobody takes out 104 credit cards. AmEx knows the claim has no merit. We have told them this for a long time. AmEx's law policies allowed fraudulent transactions to be charged to my client's card.

AmEx sucks buffalo balls.

Melissa Joan Hart covers People magazine


Melissa Joan Hart hasn't been in the limelight as much as she used to be, but she was thrust into it last summer when beach pictures made the rounds and showed her carrying around 155 pounds, mostly just left-over baby weight from giving birth to sons Mason (3 years) and Braydon (14 months). Now, she's on the cover of next month's People magazine looking SMOKIN' HOT in a bikini.

I've dreamt of many-a-makeout session with her, pretty much when she used to rock it as Clarissa Darling on Clarissa Explains It All. Really...old school Nickelodeon was the sh*t.

Tom Brady squashes baby rumors


It's been a month or two since the Tom Brady and Gisele baby rumors started, but it took only one or two seconds for the QB to end them. While he was working out at the New England Patriots' training camp, interviewers asked him about rumors that he was going to be a father for the second time. Tom kept it short and sweet.

No. One is enough. I have dogs and that's all I need.

It's gotta be tough for him to not see his son since he's on the road and training for more or less half the year, but you gotta give the guy credit for not planting more seeds when he wouldn't be able to see the kids. Plus, Bridget Moynahan would probably castrate him.

Rihanna testifying against Chris Brown


It's the showdown that everyone was hoping would happen. Rihanna is going to appear in court to testify against her sh*tbag ex-boyfriend Chris Brown on June 22, but not under her own power. She was subpoenaed by the court in hopes that her testimony will help figure out if there's enough evidence to continue the case.

Rihanna really doesn't even have to say a word. All she has to do is blow up this picture, then the show's over for Breezy.

Will Ferrell sunscreen


Will Ferrell might make us laugh our asses off, but he wants to make sure we don't fry our asses off at the same time. Will is throwing his star power and love for posing in awkward sexual positions behind a new line of sunscreen that gives cancer survivors college scholarships. The College for Cancer WILLPOWERED sunscreens (Sun Stroke, Sexy Hot Tan, and Forbidden Fruit) are available NOW right here! And 100% of the proceeds go to the College for Cancer fund.

I'd say that's pretty cool for Will to get behind such a cool charity, which it is, but let's be real -- he's only doing this so he can be near-naked on store shelves everywhere.

Trent Reznor raises $850K for fan's transplant


Trent Reznor has been totally badass for most of his life for being the frontman for Nine Inch Nails, but now he's badass for a totally different reason. One of NIN's biggest fans, Eric De La Cruz, is suffering from a heart disease called severe dilated cardiomyopathy, which could kill him if he doesn't get a heart transplant soon. Medicaid won't pay for him to get it and private insurance won't cover it because of his preexisting condition. He tried to get Federal Medicare, who would cover it, but they denied his request, too. So that left Eric with having to pay for the transplant himself.

This is where Trent comes in. He somehow came across Eric's sister's Tweets about his situation, and decided to set up a little charity deal to raise money for it. If fans donated $300, they'd get access to soundcheck and a quick meeting with the band, $1,000 donations got dinner and backstage passes with the band, and $1,200 gave fans 2 tickets and VIP access. The response was so huge that Trent actually ran out of room for VIPs, so he's auctioning off a signed Tony Hawk skateboard and a signed CD of NIN's rarest release Still. He said that so far, he's raised $858,628.30.

That's AWESOME all around. Awesome that fans are contributing that much to help Eric out, and even more awesome that Trent is taking the time to help one of his fans like that. That's what being a celeb is all about -- not like Perez Hilton who throws a bitch fit when he gets answers he doesn't like hearing to questions he asks.

"Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Danielle Staub's secret life


If you've been watching Real Housewives of New Jersey, then you know next week's episode is going to get pretty interesting for Danielle Staub, all because of a book. The preview for next week's show centers around a book called Cop Without a Badge. The book profiles a woman named Beverly Merrill, who was a drugged up stripper that was arrested in 1986 for extortion, possession, and kidnapping. The kidnapping charge actually involved one of her drug dealer friends, who swiped a kid who owed him $25,000 and beat the crap out of him for a while before calling his father for ransom. After being released from jail on bail, Beverly met a guy named Kevin Daher, who used his connections to help Beverly avoid the slammer. They married each other, but it didn't last too long because Kevin didn't see her as "mother material." So, since she was in desperate need of money, she started to strip and used the name "Danielle."

It sounds far-fetched, but there's actually documents that prove Danielle has gone by three other names, one of which is Beverly Merrill. Smart move by Bravo to cast a crazy ass skank so they could do a show about her and grab some ratings. Now, we wait for some "leaked footage" to hit the Internet.

Adam Lambert speaks on being a role model


Everyone in America is completely fascinated with Adam Lambert's sexuality to the opint where they're trying to pull him out of the closet instead of letting him confirm or deny whether he's gay or not. And the cool thing is that Adam is actually eating it up. During an interview with People magazine, he was straight up asked about his sexuality, and his answer was simple: "Calm down. Keep speculating." While he wouldn't answer sexuality questions, he did speak on being a role model to kids.

It's a really, really cool thing to be able to show people that you can be yourself, and you should be proud of yourself, and you should own who you are and what you're about, and never make apologies for it. It feels really amazing to be able to try and pass that on to kids and young adults who don't have a role model like that. It feels great because I never had a role model like that. Conforming is not cool. Embracing who you are and what makes you different is actually what's really cool ... The kids that are different and out there and expressive and are bold with those choices, those are the people that grow up to be people we all want to hang out with, that become celebrities or become really successful in what they do because they believe in who they are.

As far as his sexuality goes, whether or not he's right, Ryan Seacrest said he's going to speak about it soon. And he also said Adam is getting a huge kick out of all the speculation.

Shonda Rhimes shoots down another Grey's rumor

Just got word on another Grey's Anatomy rumor. Somehow, word got around that since T.R. Knight is possibly leaving the show, they were going to facially reconstruct the face of George O'Malley (because of his bus accident in the season finale) and re-cast the role to someone else. Well, the creator herself, Shonda Rhimes, hit up Twitter to say that the rumor is FALSE. Check out the confirmation below.


I'd LOVE to know how that one got started.

T.R. Knight leaving Grey's Anatomy?


And here come the Grey's Anatomy rumors. In what I think was a genius move by producers and creator Shonda Rhimes to play off of Internet rumors earlier this year of both T.R. Knight and Katherine Heigl leaving the show, the season finale ended with both George O'Malley and Izzy Stevens flatlining and trying to be revived. Since the show, fans have wondered if both, just George, just Izzy, or neither were going to die. We just heard yesterday that you shouldn't expect George to make it.

I'm not going to completely confirm this, but I've heard from multiple sources that T.R. wasn't coming back. Then again, we've heard back and forth stories about him leaving since February, so who knows at this point.

Tila Tequila sings a capella

We're gonna kick Friday off with some Tila Tequila. I'm not sure if she was trashed or not (because usually when she posts videos of her singing in the middle of the night, she is), but she tries singing Love is a Losing Game by Amy Winehouse. Except she doesn't know any of the lyrics, so she just made up her own. I'll give her props...she sounds pretty good. She JUST uploaded this about 5 minutes ago, so remember where you saw it first.

Angelina Jolie sucks at motherhood?


I don't really believe this story for a second, but I wouldn't screw you guys out of good wholesome Dirt. Angelina Jolie is apparently one of the suckiest mothers ever (aside from that lady who just lied about her and her daughter being kidnapped and brought her to Disney World instead.) Sources are saying that she really only pays attention to her kids when she needs them for a good photo op. The rest of the time, she ignores them and leaves them with nannies. One of Angie's employees gave us the skinny.

Every time Angie is set to sign on for another movie she is instructed to tell a trusted reporter that she plans to soon retire from acting or drastically cut back her schedule so that she can spend more time with her kids. That way she avoids a potential backlash from reporters who might criticize her for being away from her family so much of the time. It’s brilliant. If those reporters ever heard the kids call their nanny “Mommy,” which has happened more than once, they’d get the real picture.

Like I said, I'm not really believing this, so take it for what it's worth, but if this is true, she's just as much as an attention whore as Kate Gosselin. Maybe even worse.

Josh Brolin cheating on Diane Lane?


Josh Brolin is married to one of the hottest ladies in Hollywood in Diane Lane, which is why it's pretty shocking that he's stepping out on her. Josh is in New Orleans filming Jonah Hex, and was seen last week partying with local girl Melissa Green. They started off at the Royal Street Inn, then they went to another hot spot around 11:30pm, and were seen leaving together around 7:30am. They were both seen the next morning wearing the same clothes, looking like they hadn't slept, and Melissa looked like she was doing the walk of shame.

Thanks to In Touch magazine for the picture below that shows Josh with Melissa. What a douche.

Katherine Heigl expects big bucks for movies


Katherine Heigl really needs a reality check, because she thinks she's a bigger deal than she really is. She was lined up to star in the romantic comedy Valentine's Day, which had a ton of A-listers on tap like Julia Roberts, Anne Hathaway, Ashton Kutcher, Jennifer Garner, Shirley MacLaine, and Bradley Cooper, but she ended up getting dropped from the flick after demanding $3 million for the filming, which is scheduled to only last between 3 and 14 days. No other actor on the cast asked for anything near that amount.

So let's recap -- she's pissing off producers and writers of Grey's Anatomy and may have just taped her last season with the show, and now she's acting like a total diva to movie casters. Yup. This broad's screwed.

Jaime Pressly has a new man


Jaime Pressly was seen vacationing in Mexico (what Swine Flu?) the other day flaunting her smokin' hot body in a bikini while hanging with a new fella. She broke it off with her long-time boyfriend, DJ Eric Cubiche, about six months ago.

Whoever the mystery man is, he's a lucky son of a biznatch.

Paulo Costanzo talks "Royal Pains"


Paulo Costanzo is co-starring in a brand new show that's hitting the airwaves on the USA Network in a couple weeks called Royal Pains. The show focuses on an ER doctor who gets fired, then takes up freelance doctor jobs in the Hamptons after his brother (Paulo) convinces him. Paulo sat down with our friends at PopEater and talked about the show and his role.

Talk about your show: "It's a kind of a mish-mash of many different kinds of ... look at the sky, holy crap. I’m going to pause for a second and tell you that right now I’m in the Hamptons … just outside of New York, shooting at a castle. This castle served as one of the exterior shots for 'Citizen Kane' … it's incredible. I'm just going to say that as a side note."

What attracted you to the role? "It's a very kind of colorful role. He's very much the kind of comic relief of the show. (And what, Oh it's a tiger. The driver's like, 'look at that, it's a tiger, outside of the gas station.') Yes, he's just a fun character to play and I knew early on that it kind of clicked. It's like when you meet someone you really like."

Megan Fox L.A. photo shoot

Megan Fox hit the streets of Los Angeles on Tuesday for a sweet little photo shoot, which Entertainment Weekly says is for a magazine cover. Check out how she goes from cute to KNOCKOUT in the pic below.


Not that make-up artists even have to do much to make her look smokin' hot...

Chris Brown says he "ain't a monster"

Apparently while he's bowling with friends, Chris Brown likes to post videos on YouTube and plug his new album. Check out this quick 30-second video of the biggest bitch in hip hop talking about his new album, his new single, haters, and not being a monster.



No one said you're a monster, Breezy. A huge p*ssy, yes, but not a monster.

Real Housewives of New York cast getting big money


The ladies of the Real Housewives of New York are getting a pretty penny for the third season of the hit Bravo show. All 5 leading ladies are going to make upwards of $30,000 per episode, which will totally give them bragging rights over their hubbies, who will receive NOTHING for appearances.

I've flipped through the channels and caught parts of this show a couple times and I gotta say -- there's nothing like seeing a group of spoiled broads fight. Makes for some sa-weet and hilarious entertainment. Snobby, but hilarious.

Scarlett Johansson putting out another album


Scarlett Johansson is putting out another album, this time teaming up with Pete York for Break Up. The first single, Realtor, was released on iTunes on Tuesday, but you can preview it right here before you buy it. The album comes out September 8.

I listened to the first couple minutes of the song and I gotta say -- it's kinda catchy. I thought it was going to sound like crap but it's still in my head. What do you think...yay or nay?

Janice Dickinson talks smack about Tyra Banks


Last week, Tyra Banks gave America's Next Top Model judge Paulina Porikova the boot, blaming it on budget cuts. But Janice Dickinson, who used to be a judge on the show before she got axed, called Tyra out and said she's basically just a lying money-hound.

That’s how Tyra rolls. Tyra rolls like that, she likes to fire people just about when she’s promising them large amounts of money, they get the axe, like I did…. then she takes the money and runs.

I gotta say, I'm no Janice fan, but I'd totally believe her over Tyra any day. I've heard Tyra is a total stuck-up snobby bitch, and I'd totally believe that she'd try to screw people if it put more money in her pocket.

Susan Boyle drops some f-bombs?


There's some rumors floating around about Susan Boyle completely flipping her lid on Tuesday while watching a screening of Britain's Got Talent at a hotel bar. Apparently, after Susan watched youngster Shaheen Jafargholi perform, she threw two middle fingers in the air while screaming out "F*CK YOU!" when she heard her favorite judge, Piers Morgan, tell Shaheen that it was the best performance by far that the judges have heard in the semi-finals. BUT reps from the show are saying the rumors aren't true.

As far as we are aware Susan was not at the bar during Shaheen's performance. She started watching the show there but left early and watched some of the acts in her room as she was being asked for interviews in the bar by journalists.

I don't believe this story for a second, honestly. Susan seems way too shy, humble, and polite to flip out over one of her competitors getting a compliment from her favorite judge. She seems like the type of celebrity that would be nice to everyone, not a total biatch.

Jodie Sweetin reveals all in new book


More stories of tell-all books for you -- former Full House star-turned meth addict-turned Mom, Jodie Sweetin, is gonna put the ole pen to paper and bust out a biography called UnSweetined. In the book, she plans to dish all the dirt on her past as a drug user and abuser, including stories about becoming hooked on meth, cocaine, and ecstacy while travelling the country to give anti-drug speeches.

It's good to see that she's getting her life back together, especially since she has a daughter. Plus, she's got the girl next door look, so it'd totally break your heart (or at least mine) to know she's still a user. Congrats for taking the next step, Jodie!

Chris Brown accused of assault...AGAIN!


Chris Brown's starting to not only prove he's a good hip hop artist, but an excellent abuser, too. Breezy is being sued for an assault that took place just weeks after he beat the piss out of Rihanna, although to his credit, he wasn't actually physically involved. While Chris was playing basketball in a gym, a photographer tried snapping some pics of him, but a gym employee blocked him and actually caused him to fall down the steps. That's when Breezy's bodyguards picked him up by his shorts and roughed him up. The paparazzo is suing both the gym and Chris.

So this basically proves one thing -- when Chris needs to fight a fella, his bodyguards handle it. But he's a tough guy when it comes to throwing down with a girl. What a little bitch.

Was Merv Griffin gay?


A new biography is out on TV legend Merv Griffin, and it's offering up some insider info -- he was gay. The new book, Merv Griffin: A Life in the Closet, reveals that Merv had a ridiculously active gay sex life that remained underwraps with some HUGE stars. James Dean, Marlon Brando, Rock Hudson, and Liberace were just some of Merv's lovers that are named in the book. Aside from homosexuality being really looked down upon back in the day (let's be real, has it changed ::cough::Prop 8::cough::), a source reveals another reason Merv didn't want to be outted.

Merv didn't want the disgrace that Liberace and Rock Hudson suffered through when they got AIDS. He worked too hard to create 'Merv Griffin the star' to let the reality of his personal life interfere with the Hollywood image he desperately tried to sustain until his dying day.

Pretty shocking to hear about, but at the same time, not surprising. Shocking because obviously no one would suspect Merv of being gay, but not surprising because he probably really believed coming out of the closet back in those days would've ruined his career.

Chicago Cubs' pitcher Carlos Zambrano ejected from last night's game

You're probably sitting there thinking, "So what? Players get ejected from games all the time." I won't spoil the surprise for you, but just watch this 2-minute clip and see how Carlos takes out his frustration. It's f*cking hilarious.



And now, check out a quick 45-second interview with Carlos about how he takes out his aggression. At least he was a good sport about it, even though he really does act like a spoiled brat.

Jon and Kate Gosselin blasted by family


It's one thing to be blasted by random people or the media, but when you get the verbal smack laid down on you by your family, you know you're floating in Sh*t's Creek. Kate's brother Kevin and his wife Jodi have talked down about Jon and Kate for the second time in two weeks. This time they were on the Early Show saying that the Gosselins should be ashamed that they're exploiting their children the way they are.

We thought it was very innocent at the time. It quickly turned into more and more demands from Jon and Kate from the network. It turned into 40 episodes in a six-month span. There were cameras in the children's bedroom at one point, and they were filming all year round. These were very huge concerns for us. [The kids are] being viewed as a commodity. They're being exploited, and it's time for America to see the situation for what it really is. This is not a healthy environment for kids to be raised in. We feel that they've chosen this path with disregard to their children's safety, security.

Two things: 1) TOTALLY agree that the kids are being exploited. Because when you sign onto Facebook and see your friends taking quizzes to see "What Jon and Kate Plus 8 kid are you?" -- you know something isn't right. 2) Why do they keep saying THEY'VE? At the end of last season, Jon was saying how he didn't want to do it anymore, and it was painfully obvious from the season 5 premiere on Monday that he doesn't even want to be there. Kate's the attention whore that wants to keep the show going, so blame her, not him.

AT&T helps Kris Allen win Idol?


There's nothing better than a good controversy to taint a win. Everyone (including himself) was SHOCKED last week when Kris Allen walked away with the American Idol title. He's even both blogged and said on national TV that Adam should've won it (only to come back and say America couldn't have made a bad vote.) Turns out AT&T, one of Idol's biggest sponsors, may have had a hand in giving Kris the crown.

AT&T provided phones for free text messaging at two different Kris support parties. On top of that, workers showed the partygoers how to power text -- send 10 texts/votes with the push of a button. Interestingly enough, AT&T wasn't present at any Adam support parties, and definitely didn't show any Adam voters how to power texts.

So basically, two questions can be asked out of this. 1) Did AT&T want Kris to win because they felt more comfortable advertising on a show that had him as a winner instead of Adam? and 2) Since AT&T is such a vital part of Idol's advertising income, did Idol execs strike a deal behind the scenes with AT&T to make sure Kris was named the winner because he'd be a less controversial face to market? Either way, this totally ruins Kris' win and rains on his parade. I was an Adam fan, but even I think this is total bush league bullsh*t.

"Slumdog Millionaire" director helping his young stars


For weeks, I've thrown up posts off and on about how the stars of Slumdog Millionaire, mainly the youngsters Rubina Ali and Azhar Ismail, haven't been getting the support that producers of the movie promised to give them. Finally, after rumors of Rubina's father possibly selling her so that he could support his family and after hearing that both her and Azhar's house had been destroyed, director Danny Boyle flew to India to try and straighten everything out. Danny set up a trust fund last year to award money to both Rubina and Azhar, but for some reason they haven't been receiving any.

It's about time someone heads over there to figure all of this stuff out. We've heard all about how the stars were supposed to have a better life, meanwhile they were seeming to get worse with no one doing anything about it. Props to Danny for putting his foot down and trying to figure all this shizz out.

Zac Efron dumping Vanessa Hudgens?


Ladies and gents, start your engines -- it's looking like Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens will both be back on the market soon. Zac and Vanessa have been dating for the last 3 years and have totally become teen idols, mainly because of their hit trilogy of High School Musical movies. But after having a pretty good response to 17 Again, Zac is looking to shed the teen idol image and vault himself into major movie stardom. His manager thinks in order to do that, he has to distance himself from all things Disney, including Vanessa. A source close to Zac gave us the dirt.

Zac's been told that to go from a teen idol to a major movie star, he has to distance himself from his HSM image. One big thing that means is no more Vanessa. When people see them together, they think of their characters. Zac does still love Vanessa. He's agonizing about this! He’s reconsidering his public image. No more musicals is another step — that’s why he dropped out of the Footloose remake.

Zac kinda seems like a mega attention whore, so I could totally see him dropping Vanessa in order to try and bring his career up to another level. We'll see what happens.

Adam Lambert not interested in joining Queen?


I threw up a post yesterday about Queen being interested in working with Adam Lambert because they dig his vocals, but not tapping him to be the new lead singer for the band just yet. Turns out, Adam isn't even 100% gung ho about being their new frontman anyway.

That's a tough question because, honestly, how do you say no to being in Queen? I mean, that's unbelievable. But at the same time, I do have my own thing to do right now, and that's my goal. So if I could, I would try to do both. That's the honest question. I would try to do both. I would love to perform with them anytime they wanted me to but I also have my record to do. So, we'll see.

It's gotta be a tough spot for Adam. Singing for a pretty legendary band like Queen would totally reek of awesomeness, but you can tell Adam definitely wants to make it on his own, too. I almost think singing with Queen first would be a good path, though, then hit up a solo career. Look at Justin Timberlake and Fergie -- they got big in their respective groups, and then killed it with their solo albums. Getting some exposure as the frontman of Queen topped onto the exposure he already has from Idol might not be a bad way to start out.
