Celebrity Updates: The New 90210 and Why London is Getting “Sex” First

THE NEW 90210 Things are moving right along for the CW’s new 90210 spin-off. You can forget about the rumor that Hilary Duff will play the show’s main character. Today producers announced they gave the role of Annie Mills to Shenae Grimes — who plays former good girl Darcy Edwards on Degrassi: The Next Generation. Grimes will play the daughter of the principal of Beverly Hills High. She joins former Full House star Lori Loughlin, who will be playing Annie’s mom, Celia Mills. Actor Dustin Milligan and Nip/Tuck’s AnnaLynne McCord have also signed on to the project. In addition, Dirt … Continue reading →

Celebrity Cheapskates

I’m sure you are familiar with the phrase: “To Whom Much is Given, Much is Expected.” Apparently, either some of Hollywood’s biggest names are not as familiar with the saying or they simply choose to ignore it. Case in point, online forums are buzzing with the low down on the latest list of celebrity cheapskates. Topping the list… two names that shocked me: Katie Holmes and new BFF Victoria Beckham. It appears that Mrs. Moneybanks, pardon me, Mrs. Tom “Moneybanks” Cruise, is only generous to people she works with… forget about the people who simply work for a living. According … Continue reading →

Celebrity Updates: Moving On

Still no official word as to why R&B singing sensation Usher cancelled his weekend wedding to girlfriend Tameka Foster, but now it seems attention is shifting a bit… According to media reports, Foster was hospitalized due to pregnancy complications a day after the wedding was called off. Usher’s pregnant fiancée is reportedly recovering in an Atlanta area hospital (and yes, Usher has reportedly been at her side). Foster told PEOPLE magazine that she and the baby are “fine for now.” She also told the magazine that fans shouldn’t believe all they have been reading in regards to why her nuptials … Continue reading →

Celebrity News: The Week Ahead

How I got sucked into watching ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars” I will never know. But, like millions of others, each week I find myself tuning into the dance competition to see which star’s moves are most impressive. The other little thrill I get from the show is looking at the audience to see which members of a star’s entourage gets a cameo shot. Last week I was treated to a 90210 reunion of sorts as Ian Ziering’s former cast members (Jason Priestly, Tori Spelling, and Jennie Garth) came out to root him on. This week, Laila Ali’s guests are … Continue reading →

Celebrity Updates: Middleton’s New Life and The Wiggles’ New Addition

Kate Middleton is adjusting to her new life without boyfriend Prince William. After nearly five years together, the couple recently decided to call it quits and as all things related to the future king of England the news made international headlines. Be that as it may, the intense media scrutiny apparently hasn’t stopped Middleton from carrying on with her daily activities. The 25-year-old was recently photographed leaving her parents house (she reportedly flashed a huge smile at waiting photographers) for her own London flat. She was later caught by paparazzi carrying a tennis racket and smiling again as she walked … Continue reading →

Celebrity Updates: “The View” Feud and “Spicy” Refusals

The world of entertainment is fluid (to say the least), which is why blogs about certain celebrities tend to require updates on a weekly basis (save for Britney Spears in which case it’s an hourly basis). The following are new takes on subjects from my previous blogs featuring the ladies of a certain ABC chatfest and a reality star in the making. “The View’s” Youngest View Much has been written about the growing animosity brewing between “View” co-hosts Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Rosie O’Donnell. Some media reports have the ladies clawing at each other during commercial breaks. While other reports (including … Continue reading →

Help Usher Name New Baby

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz could have used our help. But, alas it’s R&B singing sensation Usher who is reaching out to fans for help with baby names. The singer and his wife Tameka Foster are expecting their second son on December 15th, but they have yet to choose a name for their newest family member-to-be. In a recent interview with TV’s “Access Hollywood” Usher asked viewers to submit “unique baby names” for he and his wife to consider. The couple is already parents to 11-month-old son Usher Raymond V (whose nickname is Cinco). Apparently the singer doesn’t plan to … Continue reading →

Celebrities Stepping Out of the Box

We know he can sing, but now fans will get to see if former “American Idol” contestant Chris Daughtry has what it takes to light up the small screen as an actor. The singer reportedly just signed on to guest-star on the 100th episode of CBS’s “CSI: NY.” Joining Daughtry on the same anniversary episode will be Rumer Willis (Bruce Willis and Demi Moore’s daughter), Scott Wolf, Julia Ormand, actor-rapper Nelly and NFL star Marshall Faulk. According to producers, the 100th show will air in November and will center on the pursuit of a serial killer who targets people named … Continue reading →

Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow

Of the 6,000 fans that gathered outside a Chicago church last week to bid farewell to actor Bernie Mac more than half wondered why his publicist continually fed false health updates to the media during his hospitalization. The comedian’s rep is remaining mum, but Mac’s widow recently went public with her reaction to her beloved husband’s death. Just a few days ago Mac’s wife of 30 years spoke to reporters and admitted that initially she didn’t think much of her late husband’s trip to the hospital. As she tells it, the comedian had a fever and trouble breathing, but didn’t … Continue reading →
