July 7, 2010

She refuses to define her sexuality, but Danielle Staub seemed to confirm rumors of her romance with singer/songwriter Lori Michaels to In Touch at The Sorcerer’s Apprentice premiere in New York. “I can say that people are reading between the lines, and pictures don’t lie. In all honesty, I don’t care much for men. Let’s leave it at that,” the Real Housewives of New Jersey star said at the July 6 event. The reality queen, who has been spotted snuggling up to Lori all over New York, couldn’t stop gushing about her new galpal. “I’m very happy. I really am. She is a big part of my soul, and we share a lot of chemistry together,” she said. When asked for advice on dating members of the same sex, Danielle, a divorcée with two young daughters, says to always follow your heart. “Whatever makes you happy, do it, and don’t listen to anybody else that tells you different,” she says. “It’s no one’s life but your own.”

Mel Gibson to Oksana Grigorieva: You Deserved It!


Mel Gibson was reportedly caught on tape not only admitting he beat up girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva, but saying she deserved it. Pretty sickening stuff if true.

We haven’t heard the tape of said admission, but it comes less than one week after Mel’s racist rant against the mother of her child was leaked to the media.

You know, the one where he told her “You look like a f***ing pig in heat … if you get raped by a pack of n***ers, it will be your fault.” What an awful person.

Radar Online claims more content from the tape features Mel admitting to hitting Oksana in the face, which she alleges – while she was holding their baby.

On tape, a teary Oksana allegedly asks: “What kind of a man … would hit a woman when she is holding a child in her hands, hitting her twice in the face?

It’s fair question.

Expecting, Unmarried Parents

SCARY MEL: Women across the world … learn from Oksana and run.

“What kind of a man is that?” the Russian musician supposedly repeats on the tape, and the actor responds: “You know what – you f**cking deserved it.”

Just disgusting.

The alleged comments, which we don’t exactly doubt are true, given who we’re dealing with, shed new light on the pair’s escalating he-said, she-said battle.

His lawyer has insisted Mel did not hit Oksana and that they had only a loud argument during the incident that took place January 6 in his Malibu mansion.

Sources close to Grigorieva claim she was left bloodied and bruised with two teeth knocked out after a violent confrontation. She then went to the dentist.

The emergence of this part of the tape, if real, would mark the latest, nastiest development in an already bitter fight … at least until his next outburst.

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson: At War or On a Date?


We’re very sorry to report this, Twihards, but Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are “at war” with each other.

The reason? Rob’s alleged inappropriate behavior with co-star Anna Kendrick, which was caught on camera and over which Kristen confronted her man – on the red carpet of the Eclipse premiere!

Somehow – despite the presence of nearly every magazine, newspaper and cameraman in the country at the event – the only publication to notice this “breakdown” was random Australian rag Famous. But, hey, it must be true.

Just like Jessica Simpson’s confirmed pregnancy, tabloids don’t just make up cover stories out of thin air, do they?

Fake Cheating Scandal

Pattinson and Stewart looked quite happy and cozy when they surprised Eclipse fans in Los Angeles Monday night. Could that all have been an act?!?

As pictured below, the couple was also spotted at Hotel Café in Hollywood yesterday, attending a Sam Bradley concert.

Rob does look especially somber, but we’re gonna chalk that up to paparazzi invading his personal space, not pointy, imaginary love triangles stabbing him in the heart…

Brandi Glanville Warns LeAnn Rimes: Eddie Cibrian’s Totally Gonna Cheat on You Too!


Brandi Glanville, the scorned wife of Eddie Cibrian, has a message for his infamous mistress, LeAnn Rimes: Don’t think you’re the only one he’ll screw around on.

When Eddie left his model wife, Brandi, for singer LeAnn last year after their affair was exposed by celebrity gossip tabloids, it took her a long time to move on.

She even went Carrie Underwood on him. And she’ll never forget.

“I don’t know how she deals with it, that he was lying to both of us,” Brandi, who still lived with him for three months after his affair was exposed, tells In Touch.

“There was no lull in our sex life” until the scandal broke, she adds, making the point that their marriage wasn’t broken as far as she knew – he’s just duplicitous.

Sweet Brandi

Brandi Glanville: Not a fan of Eddie Cibrian. Or his girlfriend.

“They’re cheaters,” she says. “I hope he gets help, but if he’s a cheater, he’s going to cheat forever. The great thing is, it doesn’t affect me anymore. I’m done.”

Though she says their equal custody is “really like 60/40” with Eddie so often away, her sons, Mason, 7, and Jake 3, have grown close to dad’s new girlfriend.

“They talk about her all the time,” admits Brandi, who LeAnn wants to back off. “Initially, it was difficult, but she seems to be a positive influence in their life.”

Brandi Glanville has moved on with a new boyfriend herself, and she’s confident she and her ex can have a civil relationship. “I know Eddie loves me,” she said.

“I’m the mother of his children. But it’s a different kind of love. I do have resentment, but I wish him well. I hope we can all be friends one day, to be honest.”

Jessica Simpson Baby News: Coming Someday!


Sitting in on an OK! Magazine staff meeting would be so awesome.

There’s an element to celebrity gossip that is always, well, gossip. You take what you read with a grain of salt. But there’s gossip, and there’s deliberately and wholly inventing stories, misleading us with vague text and exclamation points.

Either Jessica Simpson’s name came up in the lottery this week, or the darts all landed on her, because she is apparently having a baby! Would you believe that the same bombshell was dropped almost verbatim last week, only about Jennifer Aniston?

It’s true! Doubly joyful news!

Baby For Jess!Baby Time!

CONFIRMED! REVEALED! What is? That OK! wrote a cover story? Consider it official!

According to this fine publication, as Jessica nears her 30th birthday this week, she has a new man (Eric Johnson) and a new plan – to become a mother!

The first part of that is true, at least. But then there’s this line:

“Enjoying an early birthday celebration at the Greenbrier Casino Club gala opening in West Virginia on July 4, Jess caused a stir with her visible bump!”

No word if they mean a visible bump on her head or knee.

Seriously, time to get a little more creative with your made-up nonsense, guys. You’re going to be labeled the magazine that cried fake-pregnant wolf.

Kendra Wilkinson Slides Into Home, Invites Mockery


Let’s play a game: Name the strangest thing about the fact that Kendra Wilkinson held a book signing in New York City yesterday, as evidenced by the photos below. Was it…

… the title of her memoir, “Sliding Into Home,” and the never-ending source of double entendres and puns this allows for?

… the idea that Kendra herself wrote a book with more words than pictures?

… the incredible coincidence that that this reality star’s sex tape just happened to be released around the same time as her biography? We mean, this is clearly nothing more than a coincidence, right?

Husband Hank Baskett was also on hand to support and kiss his wife. Peep the pics now…

In Touch Exclusive Interview & Photos:Perez Hilton shed 61 pounds and transformed his life!


Hollywood blogger Perez Hilton has made a career out of poking fun at celebrities, but says he could no longer exclude himself from the finger pointing when he ballooned up to 248 pounds two years ago. Perez, whose real name is Mario Lavandeira, says he was so ashamed of his body, he took a long, hard look in the mirror and vowed to make a change. And now, committed to staying active seven days a week and sticking to a healthy diet, he has shed 61 pounds and transformed his life. Here, Perez, 32, exclusively tells In Touch how he lost the weight — and why he won’t stop until he has a six-pack!

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Topless Photos: Attractive


Okay, Transformers 3, we forgive you.

When it was first announced that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley would replace Megan Fox in the third installment of this franchise, we were quite disturbed because… well, have you seen Megan Fox?!?

But the Victoria’s Secret model has proven Michael Bay and company correct by doing what she does best: posing seductively.

In the following photos, believed to be from DT Magazine, Huntington-Whiteley sheds her top, protrudes a few ribs and makes us look forward to Transformers 3 for reasons that have nothing to do with its inevitably awful script…

Team Jake: Vienna’s Tears Were So FAKE!


Jake Pavelka hates Vienna Girardi so hard.

Not only did he berate her during their heated interview on The Bachelorette, his camp is accusing his ex-fiancee of using “tear-inducing eye drops” beforehand.

In the tense and dramatic face-off, Jake and Vienna met with the ABC show’s host and pimp, Chris Harrison, for the first time since they announced their split.

It was a bitter scene throughout.

Insults were traded, harsh words were exchanged and things escalated to the point where Jake raised his hand angrily and told Vienna to quit interrupting him.

She broke down sobbing and stormed off.

Vienna Cries

FAKE OR FLAKE? The Bachelor definitely trumps up story lines, and their relationship was as phony as it gets, but Vienna looked genuinely stunned at Jake’s threat.

It was a scary and sad moment, and quite obvious to viewers that whatever flaws Vienna Girardi has, she wasn’t faking her reaction to that particular gesture.

Still, Jake wants us to believe she was.

“When Vienna ran into the green room, she knocked over her purse and amongst the things that fell out were Vicks Vapor Rub and eye drops,” said a source.

Vicks Vapor Rub has been known in acting circles to be a cry-on-cue formula. Said the friend of The Bachelor star: “These were definitely crocodile tears.”

The fake tears accusation follows comments from Greek star Gregory Michael that he made out with Vienna before she and the alleged airline pilot split.

That we don’t know who to believe on, but we’ll tell you this – no matter what you think of her, Vienna came off 20 times more genuine than Jake Monday.

Bethenny Frankel Speaks on Troubled Childhood


On Bethenny Getting Married, Bethenny Frankel lets viewers into her therapy sessions and is unafraid to be filmed in various stages of happiness, sadness, frustration, anger and stress.

But the former Real Housewife of New York City is even more open in the latest issue of People, dishing to the magazine about her troubled upbringing.

“I never had a true childhood,” Frankel tells the magazine. “There was a lot of destruction: alcohol abuse, eating disorders and violent fights.”

Bethenny on People

For this reason, Frankel says she’s pampering eight-week old Bryn even more than most first-time parents. She’s also motivated by the fact that she’s estranged from her own mom, who she describes as “extremely volatile. She was never a mother to me.”
