" Get your 15-year old Full House ass away from my girlfriend" .

Samantha had a song of her own "Built This Way" featured on the soundtrack of Lohan's breakout box office hit from 2004 Mean Girls .


La Lohan's destructive behavior after completing a recent stint in rehab is reportedly due to her parent's recently re-ignited and very public divorce and custody battle on Long Island, NY as well as their erratic public behavior and unauthorized statements to the media on everything (especially Michael Lohan's recent rants to the press about Lindsay doing missionary work with him and his church in Times Square and abroad).

Rapper Nelly Speaks On Relationship With Ashanti on BET's 106th and Park






Rapper Nelly appeared on BET's 106th and Park live music video countdown show yesterday evening in NYC to discuss his new and upcoming music after a brief hiatus he took from the industry.


He also talked about his relationship with his girlfriend, singer Ashanti. He said that the premise of Ashanti's latest video for her hit single "The Way That I Love You" from her upcoming album The Declaration, was not about him. He said the video was shot over a year ago and that there is no similarities between the relationship depicted in her video, in which Ashanti plays herself in a relationship with a cheating lover, whom she cuts up with a knife and murders and is subsequently arrested and sent to jail (remember folks this happened ONLY in the music video!)


Nelly also explained that Ashanti received no support for her new single or upcoming album from what he called her "support team" (could he mean Irv Gotti and The INC.?) and that she had to "go at it alone on her own" to get her new project to be the way it has turned out (although her new album is being released through The INC and Universal Records).

Chloe Lattanzi Rocks The House On MTV's "Rock The Cradle"



Chloe Lattanzi worked the stage and the crowd, performing last but definitely not least, on MTV's Rock The Cradle last Thursday.

Chloe performed I Hate Everything About You by rockers 3 Days Grace and she really got into the performance, even more than the prior week when she performed Never Tear Us Apart by INXS (when INXS was led by the late Michael Hutchince, who died November 1997). Although I also like Landon Brown a lot, Chloe is the whole package. Landon needs a tad bit of work on his vocals, although he is good in every other aspect.

Chloe is my favorite. Let's hope she goes all the way to the finals!

Vanilla Ice Arrested For Domestic Battery; Ordered To Stay Away From His Wife


Rapper/reality TV star Vanilla Ice was arrested last night in Florida for an alleged domestic dispute with his wife, Laura Van Winkle.

The cops arrived to their home (after Laura called 911) to find Vanilla Ice (real name Robert Van Winkle) near his home on his motorcycle, where Ice said he was "cooling off" after the incident. Police determined that Laura didn't have any visible injuries on her and she then explained to the authorities that Ice had pushed her, but not hit or kicked her as originally stated in the 911 call. Laura also told the cops who arrived on the scene that she wants a divorce from the one-time rapper and that the incident started over her purchasing a bedroom set, which reportedly set Vanilla Ice off into a rage.

Ice told police that his wife suffers bipolar disorder and that she is currently being treated for it with medications. He said she had been acting irrational and he denied any physical interaction with Laura.

Vanilla Ice spent the night in jail and showed up at a court in Palm Beach County, Florida earlier this morning, where Judge Nancy Perez ordered Ice to stay away from Laura. The former rapper can have telephone contact only with her. In addition, he can only have temporary contact with his children through a mutual family friend and Ice can go to the house one time only to retrieve his personal belongings with a police escort.

Vanilla Ice was also arrested back in 2004 for a charge of domestic battery.

Mischa Barton May Avoid Jail Time For DUI Incident With A Plea Deal


Actress Mischa Barton (of The O.C. fame) is expected to dodge a bullet in court this Thursday and avoid any possible jail time she is facing by taking a plea deal that will also wipe out a charge of possession of marijuana (found in her vehicle at the time of her arrest for DUI on December 27, 2007 in Beverly Hills, California) due to the small amount recovered by authorities.


The 22 year old actress is expected to plead "no contest" for her DUI charge and will likely get 3 years probation served to her by a Beverly Hills judge along with 3months of alcohol education classes and a fine of about $1, 700.


Barton told Ryan Seacrest on his live morning shoe on KIIS-Fm in Los Angeles:

"Obviously I'm 100 percent responsible for my actions in this case. I'm really disappointed in myself. I don't know what to say about it, except that I'm not perfect, and I just don't ever intend to do something this stupid again."


It is widely reported that Barton's deal is common for most first time offenders like the young actress.

Jennifer Lopez Chooses Tom Cruise As Godfather Of Her Newborn Twins






Actress and singer Jennifer Lopez has reportedly chosen actor Tom Cruise as the Godfather of her newborn twins Max and Emme, both whom she just welcomed into the world in late February along with her husband and father of the twins, singer Marc Anthony.


La Lopez allegedly had to do some real convincing to get Marc Anthony (full name Marco Antonio Muniz) to agree to the decision with some hesitation and resistance to the idea. Sources say the values of Lopez and Anthony's traditional Catholic upbringing paired with newly appointed Godfather Tom Cruise's Scientology involvement, may cause the parents of Lopez and Anthony and their respective families to be uncomfortable with Lopez's decision.

Campbell also reportedly screamed "get off of me, don't put your hands on me" at the arresting officers during the incident.

Reportedly, Campbell recently stated to the media that she feels she has been targeted in this incident because she is black.

Kids Of Celebrities Get Their Time To Shine On MTV's Reality Show "Rock The Cradle"





MTV had developed a new reality show with a focus on the children of celebrities in the music industry. The show is called Rock The Cradle and it features Landon Brown (son of Bobby Brown), Chloe Lattanzi (daughter of Olivia Newton-John) and Jesse Money (daughter of Eddie Money) among others.

It is a pretty good show and the three I mentioned (pictured above) are my favorites so far. All the contestants will compete for a contract with a major record label. Larry Rudolph (former/possible future manager of Britney Spears) is one of the four judges (and let me tell you that Larry is HARSH on the contestants)!


Rock The Cradle airs Thursdays at 10pm EST on MTV. Check your local listings.

Jay Z And Beyonce's Star-Studded NYC Wedding









So it seems that the rumors were true after all. Jay-Z and Beyonce appear to have wed on Friday Night at Jay-Z's multi-million dollar penthouse on Hudson Street at Desbrosses and Vestry Street in the TriBeCa section of Lower Manhattan.

I rushed over with my camera as soon as I heard the rumors (after all, I don't live far from there). Solange (sister of Beyonce) showed up (pictured above). Actress Gwyneth Paltrow and her husband, singer Chris Martin of the band ColdPlay arrived (trying to cover their faces) to a media frenzy. Oscar winner Forest Whitaker showed up. Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams of Destiny's Child showed up hiding behind umbrellas to shield themselves from the paparazzi crush.

A fight between two photographers on the scene almost escalated to full-force mayhem when they began a push and shove match to get Gwyneth Paltrow's picture upon the actress' entrance into the luxury building where the event was being held.

Also in attendance were Gloria Carter (mother of Jay-Z) and Tina and Mathew Knowles (parents of Beyonce).

The event was rumored to be a celebration for Jay-Z's newly inked $150 million dollar deal with Live Nation, but quickly turned toward the idea that it was a wedding when guest arrived dressed impeccably and parents of both artists arrived, flowers were delivered, etc.

Anne Hathaway's Boyfriend Arrested in NYC


Actress Anne Hathaway’s boyfriend was arrested yesterday in NYC for allegedly bouncing a $250,000 check.

Raffaelo Follieri was charged with one misdemeanor count of issuing a bad check. Reportedly, the check was written for around $250,000 and when the bank reported insufficient funds in the account the check was drawn from. Follieri was taken the the 18th Precinct on West 54th Street in Manhattan, where he was held, booked and released from custody.


Recently, a Washington DC court ordered Follieri to pay almost $250,000 to a public relations firm that he still owes for work they did.

Are Beyonce And Jay-Z Getting Married Right This Moment?


I usually refrain from posting rumors on my blog, but it seems as if this one might have a grain of truth to it... MAYBE.


Singer Beyonce Knowles and rapper Jay-Z (real name Shawn Carter) appear to be getting married right now in the TriBeCa section of Lower Manhattan in NYC. All the Knowles' clan are there dressed in their Sunday best, flowers, the whole thing. The two have been involved in a hush-hush relationship since 2002 and they recently applied for a marriage license in Scardale Village, New York on April 1st (April Fools Day) and now this.


If it is true, congrats to the superstar couple.

Naomi Campbell Arrested At London's Heathrow Airport


Supermodel Naomi Campbell was arrested yesterday at London's Heathrow Airport for allegedly assaulting and spitting on a police officer after she reportedly threw a fit and went into a rage onboard a British Airways flight over missing luggage.


The 37 year old model reportedly became angered when she realized (while boarding the jet from the First Class Lounge at Heathrow Airport's new Terminal 5) that one of her three carry-on bags were missing.
Campbell then allegedly said to British Airways employees "Where is my bag? My bag better be loaded on this flight with me...I'm NAOMI CAMPBELL!". British Airways employees explained to Campbell that once located, her bag would be shipped to her, but that wasn't good enough, according to sources. Campbell becaume infuriated and the rage escalated as she boarded first class on the flight. Naomi was allegedly verbally abusive to flight attendants onboard and the flight was delayed for 90 minute while authorities boarded the jet, determined Campbell unfit to fly, and subsequently handcuffed the supermodel to her chair in front of stunned onlookers before taking Campbell (and the reminder of her luggage that WASN'T lost) off the flight and into custody.


While Campbell was being escorted off the flight by officers, she reportedly screamed hysterically at officers: "Get off me...leave me ALONE! Don't put your hands on me!" and also allegedly spit on one of the officers.


Campbell was taken to the police station and in Scotland Yard before making bail and being released from custody. Naomi Campbell is due in court in London in May for this incident.


UPDATE 4/7/08: Naomi Campbell reportedly stated to the media through her rep that she is being targeted in this incident because she is black.

Elvis Presley also was removed from his standing as the recording artist with the most top-10 hits in the rock era, as Madonna surpassed him with her 37th top 10, 4 Minutes To Save The World.

Britney Spears In Talks To Rehire Manager Larry Rudolph


Singer Britney Spears is reportedly giving serious consideration to rehiring former manager Larry Rudolph, the man who helped her rise to pop superstardom.


Britney is currently unable to legally rehire Rudolph herself because her father is currently the conservator of her estate and will be making all of her legal and financial decisions at least through July 31, 2008 per the court. However, sources say that Spears' father Jamie will more than likely agree to bringing back Rudolph as Britney's manager because once Britney regains legal control and no longer needs a conservator, she will probably undo all the decisions made by her dad.


This may be a very smart move for Ms. Spears to join forces with Larry Rudolph again.
