Domestic Violence in the Shadows of Hollywood
Posted by Danielle on Jan 26, 2009
In the light of Hollywood that is, when Chris Brown was sought for some violent acts of assault while he and a formerly unknown female caller placed a call for help on 911. The assault charges were initially anonymous but soon after, the ever present pap and media took on the battery victim who turns out to be Rihanna, one of Hollywood’s best young stars. Trying to contain the matter was totally futile when pictures were released of Rhianna after the assault, battered and bruised, victim of an enraged Chris who says he’s sorry (as if that’ll work).
Much is the glamor and stink of Hollywood where people will be people however their limousines may be. In the shadow of the Grammy where Rihanna was set to perform, the speculations just got louder and louder till Chris was caught and placed in jail for the crime. There was much speculation if Rhianna was the actual caller who placed the 911 call but they were both seen attending a pre-Grammy party and were known to have departed together in Chris’s Limo right before the call was placed. Rihanna canceled her performance in view of the tragic event without much reason.

Remembering Paul Newman
Posted by editor on Sep 29, 2008
Let us take a moment to remember Paul Newman (1925-2008), one of the older generation’s certified major star. Just this week, he died at home due to complications arising from cancer. He was one of the most respected and admired celebrity, appearing in films like Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid,with Robert Redford, Cool Hand Luke & most recently, the 2002 film Road To Perdition with Tom Hanks. For all the kids out there, he was the voice of Doc Hudson from the Disney-Pixar movie Cars.
He and actress Joanne Woodward, is hailed as one of the most stellar examples of marriage, having achieved 50 years together, in a world where marriage is often transitory and fleeting. He was also a genuine philanthropist, founding Newman’s Own, a line of food products that donates all proceeds of the sale to charity. He will be sadly missed.

One year after almost executing her career on the MTV Video Music Awards stage, it’s been incorrigible that Britney Spears will be recurring to the VMAs on Sunday to kick off their 25th anniversary formal procedure. Unfortunately, unlike last year where the singer opened up the show with a disastrous, scantily clad performance of “Gimme More,” MTV has announced that Brit will not be singing this time around.
“MTV has long played an important role in my career,” the pop superstar said after today’s announcement. “How can I not be there to kick off their 25th VMA’s? I’m excited to open the whole show, to say hi to my fans and to be listed.”
Brit is scheduled this year for Best Female Video, Best Pop Video and Video of the Year for her hit song, “Piece of Me.”
Van Toffler, President of MTV Networks had this to say about the choice to have Brit back. “Britney has done the whole thing from perform with a snake, lock lips with Madonna and prove that what happens in Vegas doesn’t always wait in Vegas. I can’t wait to see what she does to kick off this year’s show.”
Nicole Richie torn between motherhood and old lifestyle
Posted by editor on May 24, 2008
Although she keeps on saying that life has been beyond amazing ever since she gave birth to her daughter last January, motherhood and duties make her miss her old party days. She is torn between being a mom and being her old self, the party girl. She wanted to go out but feels guilty knowing that baby Harlow might need her. Her new responsibility seems to overwhelm her and she’s caught up with it. She may adore her daughter so much but it’s an all new responsibility for her considering her lax and carefree lifestyle before that is mostly defined by shopping and partying. She cannot figure out what makes her happier, home with the baby or party galores.
Seacrest to take over Larry King
Posted by editor on May 20, 2008
A source in CNN says that Seacrest might be adding hosting schedules in 2009 since he might take over “Larry King Live” around year’s end. Larry King would be delighted because his first choice for someone to take over him in the show is Seacrest who has filled in for King in the past. King said that Seacrest is a classic generalist and if he becomes well versed in politics and other world affairs, he could be really good for the show. He is really serious about his career where he would want to evolve so hosting Larry King would be great for him.

Posted by editor on May 2, 2008
Lindsay Lohan already made it clear that appearing on “Living Lohan,” a reality series in E! does not interest her at all. The series is supposed to be starred by her mother Dina and her sister, Ali. Dina said that she told Lohan that doing reality TV could have negative effect on her career that’s why she does not want her on the show. Back in March, Lindsay was also overheard telling friends that she would not be on the show. It is quite an interesting statement since Dina has once said that reality is the new direction of entertainment today.
