The pop superstar believes she would do a great job if she was able to take control of the country and her main goal would be to stop the country wasting money on "weapons of mass destruction."
"You can't really change much in one day. I think I would like to be president for a longer time. I wouldn't spend as much money for weapons of mass destruction but instead for education and art," she said when asked what she would do if she was President of the United States for one day.
Although she has achieved worldwide success, Madonna's ambition and drive has not diminished over the years. The 53-year-old singer attributes her success to her thirst for reinvention and never taking anything for granted: "It's harder to stay famous than become famous. I don't think there's a rule for that (staying successful). You have to really love what you're doing. You have to feed your soul with ideas and you're not allowed to stop growing as a human. That's what helps to create art. When it comes to my work I don't take anything for granted."

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Dating
The "Stronger" hitmaker was surprised by how "loud" his girlfriend's two sisters, two half-sisters, brother, mother and step-father were when he first hung out with her loved ones, and Kim's elder sibling Khloe Kardashian - who is married to basketball star Lamar Odom - has joked she found him hiding in the pantry.
"He said, 'I'm an only child; there's, like, so many of you.' I remember Lamar, at first it took him a minute to get used to us, but now Lamar loves it. With Kanye I was like, 'Why are you hiding in our pantry in my mom's kitchen?' And he's like, 'There's just so many of you guys, and you guys are all so loud and friendly and talk.' And I'm like, 'Get used to it buddy, because I like it.' It's just a lot at one time," she said.

Justin Bieber won't get drunk because he likes being in control. The 18-year-old singer admits he has experimented with alcohol but would never drink to excess.
"For me, it's like I like to be in control of myself. I mean, I've had a beer, like, before... But I never get out of control," he said.
Justin's manager, Scooter Braun, believes the "Boyfriend" hitmaker's caution stems from his desire not to damage his career. Talking about the star's remarks, he told GQ, "He knows that I hold him to a high standard... He doesn't want to blow it."
Justin - who is dating Selena Gomez - also admitted he struggles to trust people after having bad experiences in the past: "I mean, I keep my guard up a lot, because you know, you can't trust anyone in this business. That's what's sad. You can't trust anybody. I learned the hard way."

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.

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.

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."
