Nicole Richie Being Treated for Pneumonia
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television
Nicole Richie is back in the hospital, and it has nothing to do with maternity.
The reality TV star was recently admitted after a string of days feeling under the weather. “Nicole has checked into Cedars-Sinai where she is being treated for pneumonia. She is doing well,” Nicole’s rep said.
Over the weekend, the mother of two had spoken about not feeling well. She wrote on her Twitter page: “ok cold, it’s been 6 days. Lets part ways graciously & keep it moving.”
Earlier this week, Nicole was granted a restraining order against two paparazzi who she claims caused her recent car accident. The 28-year-old socialite appeared in court to testify how the two male photographers, Eduardo Arrivabene and Ivon Miguel, had been hounding her constantly. The judge ruled the two men are to stay 50 yards away from Nicole and her two children for the next three years.

Ashlee Simpson Defends Curvy Jessica
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Television, Rants
In a recent interview, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz shot back at the media for commenting on her sister’s weight.
“My sister has an incredible body. I feel sorry for anyone who would judge her, because she’s one sexy lady. It’s disgusting that people would say those things.”
Ashlee, who landed the cover of this month’s Women’s Health magazine, also added that she cannot wait to gain the pounds: “There’s gonna be a time when I’m way curvier, and that’ll be sexy too. What defines sexy is not someone’s weight. Personally I like curves. ... I wanna look good [for me]. I wanna feel good.”
The weighty backlash from Ashlee comes shortly after Jessica wrote an angry post on her Twitter regarding her sister’s swift departure from her show Melrose Place.
Those Simpson sisters sure do know how to get each others’ backs.

Lindsay Lohan Wants Lady Gaga Collaboration
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Style, Rumors
When she’s not too busy partying or having her personal phone conversations recorded, Lindsay Lohan is tuning into Lady Gaga’s music!
The somewhat-working actress reveals on her Twitter page that she has been obsessed with Gaga’s Bad Romance video and expresses her interest desperation in collaborating with the popular artist.
“LADY GAGA IS F*)K!NG EP!C !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i want to do a mini movie music video with @ladygaga in la, nyc, and all over europe. @ladygaga OBSESSED WITH YOUR NEW VIDEO! you’ve just become epic in my book ** [sic]”
I’m not sure if becoming epic in Lohan’s book is a compliment or something to flat-out ignore. If anything, a collaboration with Lohan would be a major downgrade and regression (two words: Labor Pains).
Either way, I have a feeling that the Alexander McQueen-loving Gaga wouldn’t be one to instantly jump on to a collaboration with a fashion house wrecking creative advisor like Lohan.

Lindsay Lohan Held at Gunpoint
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: D-List, Drugs, Drunk, Legal Issues, Rumors
Most likely due to the mass amount of hate directed at her over the Ungaro debacle, Lindsay Lohan was threatened by a gunman on holiday over the weekend.
The Mean Girls actress was left shaken following the terrifying encounter during a break to Morocco - only to discover the weapon being brandished was fake.
She revealed on her Twitter page: “Umm-OMFG! I was walking ahead with the security guard and some guy was following me, then pulled up in his car and pointed a GUN at me! I was on the phone w/my mum and i screamed and ducked and the guy started laughing and pushed the trigger and it was a fake gun..I was crying..he scared me. (sic)”
In a probably not-so-unrelated story, 23-year-old Lindsay’s father Michael has demanded she go into rehab, insisting she needs help for an addiction to painkillers.

Edward Norton Not Big on Social Networking
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Charity
Edward Norton thinks social networking sites are like “torture.” Unlike many other celebrities, the Leaves of Grass actor has never written an internet blog because he hates the idea of people cyber stalking him.
“I haven’t personally really engaged in a lot of this new kind of social networking stuff like Twitter or Facebook or MySpace,” the 40-year-old star explained. “I mean, the notion of people following what I am doing every day is like torture for me. It’s absolutely the last thing that I’m looking for. It seems to me to be really just about social chatter.”
Despite his web worries, Edward agreed to sign up on Twitter to help raise money for his favorite charity, the Maasai Wilderness Conservation Trust.
“It’s a good example of a way that you can turn that platform into something where you actually can accomplish something good,” he added to Parade magazine. “It’s my first attempt. We’re putting our running training log on Twitter. You can see can see pictures too on the site there. The trust conserves the wildlife and culture of the Maasai tribe of Kenya, Africa.”

John Mayer Offers Advice to Tween Artists
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Television, Child Stars, Charity, Kind Acts

We all knew that John Mayer was fairly obsessed with Twitter—this is the guy who told us that his penis fell asleep. Who knew that he’d let this obsession get to his head so much that he feels the need to offer advice to everyone?
Seeming to have gained insight into the mind of a 16 year-old icon due to his affinity for Twitter, Mayer commented on Miley Cyrus’s departure from the social networking site: “She’s smart enough to realize there is some interference of the brain that she doesn’t want to deal with… I think if you’re in Miley’s situation, it might take a little too much time to play goalie for your own heart and mind.”

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Legal Issues, Videos, Paparazzi Videos, Oops Photos
After his wife Maria Shriver’s illegal cell phone usage on the road was publicly called out by TMZ, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger quickly responded on his Twitter, “Thanks for bringing her violations to my attention. There’s going to be swift action.”
Who knew that “swift action” meant hiring a driver instead of simply buying a bluetooth! Well, at least that’s one less unemployed person in the state—well done, Governator.

Tracy Morgan Disses Former SNLers in New Book
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Rivalries

This Thursday’s return of 30 Rock isn’t the only thing Tracy Morgan fans should be looking forward to. Next week’s release of the comedian’s new book, I Am the New Black, promises to give us more backstage group than the fictional NBC program could provide.
In the autobiography, Morgan talks about his years on Saturday Night Live and is more than candid about those he liked and disliked. Part of what can be heard on an audio recording of the book is apparently an ad-libbed version of what is on the page. Either way, you might not think about former late-night players Cheri Oteri and Chris Kattan the same way again.
