The ‘Baby’ singer reveals that he spent his childhood sleeping on a pull-out couch, surrounded by mouse traps. Just like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Justin Timberlake, Canadian superstar Justin Bieber spent his childhood in a mouse house. Unfortunately for Bieber, his mice didn’t sing, wear suspenders or negotiate endorsements.
Naked photos of the "wholesome" starlet have surfaced online. Again. Like many young Disney women before her, Vanessa Hudgens offers a conflicted public image. Her body of work (High School Musical, High School Musical 2, High School Musical 3) presents a wholesome, PG sweetness. But her body, which is appearing online in leaked naked photos for the third time in 4 years, suggests otherwise.
Hudgens’ lawyer is working with TMZ to make sure we all hear about the photos police to find the opportunistic creep who stole the photos and posted them again.
You don’t have to be the Star Wars Kid to realize the power the media wields over an individual’s reputation. When a single video or off-the-cuff-remark can be spun into thousands of news briefs, articles and editorials across the internet, defamation is a serious issue. So it’s no laughing matter when someone feels their reputation has been burned by the media—unless that person is Lindsay Lohan, in which case the only reasonable question is, what reputation?
Yesterday LiLo’s ever-suffering mother, Dina “White Oprah” Lohan charged that she is considering legal action against the makers of Glee for maligning her daughter in last Tuesday’s episode. Dina was particularly incensed by a scene in which Gwyneth Paltrow, playing substitute teacher Holly, tried to pique her students’ interest in her Spanish lesson by asking them, “Lindsay Lohan is totally crazy, right?” and “How many times has Lindsay Lohan been to rehab?” (Answer: five.)
Canadian politics are a rather staid affair. Even in Toronto, where we just had one of the most the most contentious mayoral races in recent history, it came down to two huffy-puffy men and their opinions on land transfer taxes and bike lanes. One of the candidates was even gay, but—bless this city—no one cares. We just want to know about the bike lanes.
Things are different in America, where politicians hold raucous tea parties and talk about sexual ethics all the time. Delaware candidate Christine O’Donnell is a particular fan of these two things, promoting her virginity (well, “born again” virginity), her Christian holiness and her constant pursuit of purity. She has delivered the public such steaming sound bites as “The Bible says that lust in your heart is committing adultery, so you can't masturbate without lust” and “One of my first dates with a witch was on a Satanic altar and I didn't know it.... We went to a movie and then had a midnight picnic on a Satanic altar."
Maybe you’re a Chekhov fan who happens to enjoy celebrity news. Or perhaps you’re a celeb watcher who’s always intended to brush up on your Russian literature, but just haven’t gotten around to it yet. Well, good news my high-culture/low-culture friends, because New York writer Ben Greenman has invented a novel mashup that “celebritizes” the works of famed Russian writer Anton Chekhov. Note: this might be the only time you get to read “Chekhov” and “Paris Hilton” in the same piece, so savour it.

Take a good, long look at this photo of Britney Spears, taken only a couple of weeks ago.
Memorize it, if you'd like.
Ready? Have your eyes sufficiently drunken in the image of Brit-Brit?
Now, focus on her unsullied neck region and memorize that.
Ready? Good. Then let us continue.
After spending years as a target of ridicule, Lindsay Lohan
has finally gotten in on the joke. This weekend’s Video Music Awards saw the
normally belligerent actress (There’s
nothing wrong with me, I’m just exercising my right to twinkle!) changing
tactics and joining host Chelsea Handler in a self-deprecating skit. In the
pre-taped segment, LiLo was seen deriding Handler for wearing an alcohol
monitoring bracelet. “You think anyone wants to work with a drunk?” she
screamed. “Take it from me—they don’t.”
Poking fun at herself is perhaps the most significant effort
Miss Lohan has made towards real public recovery—or at least, it’s the most
convincing one. Yes, Vanity Fair just ran a glowing article on the feisty starlet's changed ways, but c’mon. Are we really supposed to believe that 37 days of
court-imposed reflection is enough to turn a life around completely? I for one,
don’t buy it.
For everyone who thinks that
Glee is total make-believe, Naya Rivera, who plays queen-b**ch
Cheerio Santana, would like to wag her finger in your face. Or key your car…but
only if you break her heart. According to Us
Weekly, the feisty singing cheerleader, who has been romantically linked to
Glee stud Mark Salling—but not officially—recently took a carton of eggs and
the tip of her keys to Salling’s car. Why? Rivera isn’t the only pretty little
Hollywood ingénue who’s been linked to Salling of late. The hot-like-wasabi
singer was rumoured to be dating Selena Gomez, among others.
But before we get too
excited about the amazing musical montages this kind of heartbreak and jealousy
could inspire, Salling, via Twitter, says it’s not true, posting, “Silly rumors,
we’re the best of friends”, and a link to this hilarious photo. I guess we’ll
just have to wait for someone else to break down on the set before we get a
life-meets-musical moment. My money is on Britney
Spears.
Uttering ridiculous sentences is all part of the job when you’re
representing Paris Hilton. Take this one from Hilton’s rep to the Daily Mail
yesterday: "The hat was not a
communist hat, it's a military-style hat from a club.”
This comment came after the heiress was photographed in red
military hat while either a.) dancing with an outstretched arm and scratching
her face or b.) faking a mustache and brandishing a Heil Hitler. Judge for
yourself here.
Caleb Followil, lead singer
of Kings of Leon has made a startling revelation to Britain’s Q magazine. Apparently
the Grammy Award-winning crooner was once so afraid of success that he
deliberately sabotaged several tracks on his band’s first album. Displaying a
gift for self-destruction most stars don’t exhibit until well into their
celebrity, Followil chose a simple and creative method to delay success: he
sang badly. Tactics like that indicate all sorts of self-esteem issues, but let’s
just do like Gwyneth Paltrow for a moment and bury them, deep, deep down. The
interesting part of this story is the novelty of his approach. While most stars
choose booze, drugs and loose lipped prostitutes to unearth their demons, Followil’s
decision to fake a bad singing voice was as simple as it was creative.
