Gossip singer Beth Ditto thinks Lady Gaga is important to "five year olds." The musician is a fan of the pop superstar but she doesn't think her songs can ever have as much of an impact on her adult fans as they do on children because it's completely new to the younger generation:
"I think her music is for five year olds. Like when I was five, for me it was Madonna, Cyndi Lauper and Michael Jackson. Those people were iconic. I'm 31 so that was like 26 years ago. I think that for the five year old watching MTV right now Lady Gaga is going to be an iconic person. In 20 years, the people who are here and talking to journalists will be like, 'Oh Lady Gaga changed my life, Nicki Minaj changed my life.' They'll be saying who influenced them and it will be Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, artists like that. I don't think it's as relevant when a 31-year-old is saying the same things."
Beth believes it is harder for artists, including Gaga, to reach and inspire older music fans because they have been influenced by so many different types of music already.

Due to child labor laws we cannot negotiate a contract or salary directly with you, that is why your Mummy and Daddy have been copied in on this letter. We are happy to speak with them about your fee; however, we are prepared to pay you a significant amount to be the face of our new range."
Both her parents started their journey to success at a young age, with David becoming a star player at Manchester United aged just 17, while Victoria decided to pursue a music career after watching musical Fame at the tender age of seven.

George Clooney Doesn’t Demand Glamorous Girlfriend
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Dating, Red Carpet, Style
George Clooney "doesn't care"if his girlfriend dresses up or not. The Descendants actor is dating former wrestler Stacey Keibler, and although she's frequently seen wearing glamorous creations to red carpet events, George is equally attracted to her when she's in ordinary clothes.
"George is always happy with everything that I wear. He doesn't care whether I'm dressed up or down. I could never be the girl that has to put my hair and make up on and do my hair before I go out the house," Stacey told USmagazine.com.
However, Stacey, 32, admitted she enjoyed picking her dress for the Oscars in February, for which she settled on a floor-length gold Marchesa gown with matching high heeled sandals: "I've always loved fashion when it comes to fashion, I've definitely evolved, and I've got to work with some amazing designers. I never feel pressure to dress a certain way, but it was such a fun experience to go to fashion week and see a dress and try it on and then wear it to the Oscars, I'm extremely grateful for that."
While Stacey is not particular about the clothes she wears, she adheres to a rigorous workout regime to ensure she stays in shape:

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Dating, Style, Rumors
French model Baptiste Giabiconi has admitted he has a "big crush" on Katy Perry, but claims they are not dating.
The pair have been rumored to be in a relationship after they were spotted together in Paris, France, in March but although the 22-year-old hunk thinks Katy is "smart, sexy and beautiful, he is adamant they are just friends because he is too busy for love at the moment.
"Katy is smart, sexy, beautiful and talented - and she understands me. I have always had a big crush on her ... But Katy and I are just good friends. I'm single. My main focus now is to finish my album. I'm in rehearsals and working daily, so there is no room to have a relationship at this time," he said.
Baptiste met Katy at Paris Fashion Week and they have struck up a close bond, and the catwalk star has revealed he and the 27-year-old singer have lots in common: "We talk a lot about music and fashion, because we both live for the two. Katy's very religious like me and was raised to be very respectful and loving of other people. She's one of the nicest people I've met."

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Style
Rihanna is "obsessed" with Gwyneth Paltrow. The "You Da One" singer is a huge fan of the Oscar-winning actress and says she's very envious of her lifestyle and her amazing body.
"I'm obsessed with Gwyneth. Honestly, what is it not? It makes me so jealous all the time ... her body ... I'm really jealous of her, I don't even know why I like her," she said.
As well as being impressed with Gwyneth, Rihanna was very flattered when the blonde beauty's husband Chris Martin covered her song "We found Love" with his band Coldplay. "Honestly it's flattering and special to know that other musicians appreciate your music ... To have a band like Coldplay that was just surreal, and if I love it, that's extra points. I know Coldplay, we collaborated together, we worked in the studio, shot a video just recently," she said.
The 23-year-old pop beauty - who recorded the duet "Princess of China" with the band - also spoke about posing in her underwear and say she only feels confident about it because she knows the images will be Photoshopped. "Totally, especially when it's Photoshopped. I'm comfortable in my underwear around the right people," she said when asked if she was comfortable being in her underwear.
Lauren Conrad can't shop with her friends. The 26-year-old star - who has her own fashion range - admits she has given up purchasing clothes with her closest pals because they all have such different tastes.
"My best friends and I all have completely different tastes, so I've stopped shopping with them because they hate pieces I pick. I don't really like copying other people's style, I like creating my own," she said.
Discussing her clothing range, Lauren believes the kind of girl who wears her designs are open minded individuals. "What kind of people do I design for? She's an individual. I really wanted to create a line that could be worn in lots of different ways. I see people on the street wearing the clothes and get excited," she told Look magazine.
Asked for her style tip, she believes staying true to what you like is the most important thing: "It's important to dress for yourself. Have fun with what you wear so you'll look and feel great."

Karl Lagerfeld’s Apology Gift to Adele
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Style, Kind Acts, Rumors
Karl Lagerfeld has apologized for calling Adele fat by giving her a handbag.
The Chanel creative director has reportedly gifted the "Someone Like You" singer with a collection of the fashion house's bags to say sorry for branding her a "little too fat" in a French magazine earlier this year.
"He told his team to send Adele the best the fashion house have to offer after hearing she collected bags. He said he really wanted to make it up to her so they could maybe work together in the future. He could see her fronting a campaign for Chanel Mademoiselle bags when the contract with Blake Lively ends. He's annoyed with himself because he ended up insulting her when he meant to compliment her. He thinks she's beautiful and calls her divine," a source said.
