Rihanna is dating New York Knicks star J.R. Smith.
The "We Found Love" hitmaker was spotting canoodling with the basketball star at Veranda nightclub in New York earlier this month and eyewitnesses say Rihanna appeared "really into him."
"They were very flirty in the club all night and holding hands. She was sitting on his lap and was really into him," a source told In Touch Weekly.
The sportsman is a controversial figure, in March he was fined $25,000 by the National Basketball Association (NBA) after Tweeting a photo of a woman's ass in a thong from his bed. "He is the team's most controversial player, so it's no wonder that Rihanna likes him," a source said.
Rihanna recently unfollowed former boyfriend Chris Brown on twitter after speculation emerged that an offensive song he released is aimed at the Bajan beauty and infers that she is promiscuous.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Television, Features
Jennifer Lopez has been named the world's most powerful celebrity.
The 42-year-old star has knocked Lady Gaga off the top spot of Forbes magazine's annual Celebrity 100 list - at which she was placed number 50 last year - thanks to her high public profile and endeavors in music, movies, as a judge on American Idol and other endorsement deals, with her income over the last 12 months reaching a staggering $52 million.
The Celebrity 100 - which placed TV talk show host Oprah Winfrey second and Justin Bieber third - is based on income over a 12 month period and fame, as defined by a media presence across all platforms, as well as social media power as determined by prolificness on Facebook and Twitter.
Jennifer's fame was boosted by her 23,000 press mentions, including appearing on 46 major magazine covers, topping People's 2011 Most Beautiful list and being named as a Glamour Woman of the Year.

Michael Fassbender Confirms He’s Dating ‘Shame’ Co-star
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Dating
Michael Fassbender is dating Nicole Beharie.
The 35-year-old actor - who previously romanced his X-Men: First Class co-star Zoe Kravitz - admits his relationship with his Shame co-star is "difficult"' because he lives in the UK and she is based in America.
"I'm seeing Nicole. We're trying to see each other as often as possible. That's kind of difficult when she lives [in New York] and I live in England," he said.
Despite dating his co-star - whom he was recently spotted holding hands with in New York - Michael insists they only got together after filming had finished: "Nothing happened while we were filming. We started talking more on the promotion thing. So, yeah, it just sort of unfolded like that."
The Prometheus actor admitted he has recently started cooking again because he finds working in the kitchen "theraputic" after previously "falling out of the habit" of preparing his own meals: "If there's friends around, I'll cook. Or if I have a girlfriend. But on my own I kind of fell out of the habit of it, and it's a shame really because I know it's good for me. It's something quite therapeutic."
Brad Pitt Worried for Angelina Jolie When He Proposed
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Engagements, Weddings, Rumors
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie decided to get married because of her work with the United Nations. Apparently the couple feared she may not survive a dangerous new mission with the UN helping to battle drug lords.
The mother of six adopted and biological children, who is a goodwill ambassador for the UNHCR refugee organization, will be involved when the UN launches a fresh war on South American crime bosses. "Brad's terrified something bad will happen to her. It's why he wanted to cement things with a wedding," a source told The Sun.
Earlier this year Angelina wrote a farewell letter to her fiance Brad after becoming scared for her life on a UN mission. "I wrote a note to Brad and figured if anything happens he'll find it. They gave me a briefing and they said everybody needs to write down their blood type," she said.
The couple - who met on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith in 2005 - have kids Knox, Vivienne, Pax, Shiloh, Zahara and Maddox together. They announced their plans for a wedding last month.
John Travolta Accuser Drops Claim
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Legal Issues, Rumors
A man who filed sexual battery charges against John Travolta has filed papers to dismiss the case.
The masseur - who has been named only as John Doe #1 - had originally accused the actor of assaulting him on January 16 at the Beverly Hills hotel but made an application in California this morning to have the lawsuit dismissed.
A second masseur - known as John Doe #2 - is still pursuing his claim, which alleges the Pulp Fiction star sexually assaulted him in an Atlanta hotel. The second man's lawyer, Okorie Okorocha - who had dropped the first masseur as a client when he claimed he had the date of the alleged assault wrong after Travolta was able to prove he was elsewhere - insists he intends to pursue the allegation as far as possible.
"Believe me, he's not going anywhere. He was really traumatized by this. He went to the doctor for anxiety. This is somebody in the south, not Beverly Hills. When a brother is going to the doctor for anxiety, it has to be pretty bad," the lawyer told The New York Daily News.

Usher Could Leave Wife Homeless
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Divorce, Legal Issues
Usher could leave his ex-wife homeless. Tameka Foster is locked in a complicated legal battle with the "OMG" singer, and is worried he could sell the Georgia mansion where she is living.
A clause in the couple's divorce settlement allows Usher to sell the property at any time as long as he gives her 60 days notice, and sources tell TMZ.com she fears he will soon do just that, leaving her with mounting legal bills and nowhere to live.
Tameka has reportedly asked that she get a permanent home for her and their children, Usher, four, and Naviyd, three, but he has reportedly refused as he believes he has already paid her enough. At the beginning of this month, the couple were ordered to work out their differences and come to an agreement over custody of their children, a sticking point in their divorce proceedings.

Courtney Love "flipped out" and at a hotel in New York on Sunday.
The Hole singer was disturbed as she took part in interactive play Forgotten, and had to run for the exit, according to the New York Post. Courtney was at the city's McKittrick Hotel, where she was immersed in a dramatic rendition of writer Jay McInerney's new play. According to sources, the immersive experience started with Courtney and other guests walking "down a long hallway." They then proceeded into "different rooms with nearly identical blond models in pink nighties" who were "taking pills, writhing on a couch or smoking cigarettes."
Even though the people in the rooms were all actors, this quickly became too much for Courtney, and she fled from the hotel. Also at the evening were Brooke Shields, painter Will Cotton and Sex and the City writer Candace Bushnell.
Rocker Courtney is no stranger to erratic behavior in hotels, and was in 2010 refused a stay at Claridge's in London after she managed to set fire to her suite on a previous stay.

Jennifer Lopez Wants to Adopt
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Television, Celebrity Babies, Kind Acts
Jennifer Lopez wants to adopt. The American Idol judge already has four-year-old twins Max and Emme with estranged husband Marc Anthony but after working with siblings who had been adopted from Ethiopia after their mother died on new movie What to Expect When You're Expecting, Jennifer is considering the "selfless act."
"It's funny because before the movie I never really thought about adoption, I just always wanted to have my own baby and I was so focused on that and it took me a while to have my own. But after the film and during the making of the film when I held those two little Ethiopian twins I fell in love instantly and I can see how somebody can do this, how it is so easy to embrace a child who has nothing. It's a beautiful, selfless act of love and it's something that you go, 'OK, I understand these feelings, I get this.' I almost took those babies home. I fell in love with those babies."
However, right now Jennifer - who is dating backing dancer Casper Smart - says she is kept busy raising Max and Emme: "[Adoption] would be a blessing but I'm focused on doing it right with those two and I've really got my hands full."
