Red Carpet Gossip

Melanie Brown, ex-Spice Girl who recently gave birth to a little girl, has been spotted regularly with filmproducer Stephen Belafonte. We know Stephen because he recently produced the movie Thank You for Smoking.

This new love is very welcome for Mel B, after the recent hiccups with Eddie Murphy. Murphy called it quits after he found out Mel was pregnant. Melanie forced him to take a DNA test recently to prove he is the father of her baby. There’s no news about this paternity test yet.

At last Melanie has moved on and left Eddie behind. Stephen Belafonte and Melanie Brown seem to be very happy. She told a friend that being around Stephen is superb fun and that he satisfies her. The British newspaper The Sun states that Mel told a friend that she loves Stephen and that he loves her. Spotted at a party on May 14th, people were saying they look great together and Mel really looks fantastic and happy.

A week ago Jessica Simpson and John Mayer were still walking hand in hand in New York city. The two of them started going out in August 2006. They tried to keep their relationship hidden, but the media was on top of it when they started to show up at different events together. Their relationship has had their ups and downs, but it seemed like they were a couple that could deal with all the media frenzy.

John Mayer was even liked by father Joe Simpson, who wasn’t very happy about her previous relationship/marriage with Nick Lachey. Joe Simpson was thrilled about his daughter being in love with such a great musician as Mayer.

The real reason for the split hasn’t been revealed yet, but the rumour that’s being spread is that Mayer had too much attention for Roberta, a niece of Armani at the Costume Institute Gala. I’m sure we’ll find out more about the break-up soon enough.

Madonna will sing her new song “Hey You”, for which she worked with Pharrel Williams, on July 7 at the Live Earth event in London. Madonna will be the main artist on the event at Wembley Stadion.

The show in London is just one little part of a whole network of shows that will be happening all over the world. With these concerts they want to show us we need to do something about the environment. Concerts will take place in Sydney, New York, London, Tokyo, Shanghai, Johannesburg, Hamburg and Rio de Janeiro.

In London we are expecting Madonna, Keane, Black Eyed Pes, Red Hot Chili Peppers, the Foo Fighters and the Beastie Boys. Looks like it will be an impressive concert.

The “Hey You” single can be downloaded from Live Earth on Msn for a limited time. Msn donates 25 cents/download (well, the first million) to the Alliance for Climate Protection.

Canadian punk singer Avril Lavigne will be on the cover of Blender, an American magazine. The only thing that will cover her upper body will be “Hell yeah, I’m hot”. We have seen pictures of her before, but these are the hottest pictures published of her. We have never seen her like this before.

On the inner pages of Blender, in the june 2007 issue Lavigne will only wear a leather jacket, a mini skirt and fishnet stockings. With these pictures Avril wants to criticize Britney Spears and all the other female singers who depend on their looks and sexuality to sell their music and get into the charts.

Avril Lavigne tells the world she thinks performing is the most important and BitBit only cares about entertainment and sex. Britney only wants to be a sex symbol and is always depending on that for her success, according to the “Girlfriend” singer.

Lady Beckham told The Sun she was turning into ‘desperate housewife’ Bree in L.A. Especially the hunt for a good school for her three little boys was extremely stressful.

Victoria says it’s very hard to get into a good private school in Los Angeles. She had to promise she would do a lot of things for school and David Beckham even offered to teach the kids how to play soccer. I wonder if Posh’s cupcakes will taste as good as the ones from the other moms.

The whole moving business has caused a lot of stress. Victoria is very nervous because David hasn’t seen the house yet. The Beckhams have found their dream house in the neighborhood of Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes and Robbie Williams. When Victoria can’t pick up the kids from school, she can always ask Robbie and she’s sure he will be happy to play a game of soccer with David.

Last week, Paris Hilton, 26, was ordered a 45 days-sentence starting on June 5. She violated her probation by drinking and driving without lights and without a license.

The Hilton heiress and “Simple Life” star is making various attempts to stay out of prison. She already asked the Arnold Terminator Schwarzenegger to pardon her and got a ‘I’ve got better things to do’ answer.

Her latest trick, which her lawyers told her to do, is to be a good girl. She stopped drinking alcohol, quit going to parties and went to a new place to shop for clothes: no more tiny dresses for miss Hilton, from now on she sticks to a modest look.

In order to reduce her jail sentence she will have to start showing social responsibility and humility. I wonder what her next trick will be to reduce her sentence.

It could happen that Hilton will not have to spend the whole 45 days at Lynwood jail. Some of the women that are locked are freed when they have served 10 percent of their sentence, all because the jail is overcrowded.

Kurt Vonnegut Jr. died at the age of 84 on Wednesday. It is a huge loss for the literary world as well as anyone who appreciates dark humor and satire.  He is best known for his novels “Slaughterhouse-Five,”  “Cat’s Cradle,” “Breakfast of Champions,” and “God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater.” Many of his stories were drawn from his experiences as a young POW during the bombing of Dresden, Germany.

His death is said to be a result of brain damages caused by a fall a few weeks ago.

More proof that Carlos Mencia couldn’t tell an original joke if his life depended on it. This time he’s gone too far though, stealing from the one and only Bill Cosby. I hope The Sweatered One rains down a world of pain on that brutally unfunny tit.

One would think, that after countless hours of reporting on Nicole Ritchie’s possible eating disorder, E! network would probably see why filming the newest season of The Simple Life at a fat camp would be a bad idea.

Maybe they are giving their own Joel McHale something to joke about on The Soup. Or maybe they just have a sick sense of humor… but Us Magazine confirms that Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are going to be camp counselors this year.

“They are going to be camp counselors at one camp in the Southern California Mountains,” says an E! spokesperson to Us Magazine. “The camp has five different themes. Each week will be a different theme. And yes, one week is a weight loss/fitness camp. It’s not a fat camp.”

So they say it’s not a fat camp, but after looking at the pictures, I would say it is. Not that there is anything wrong with it. I applaud these teenagers for taking a step in the right direction as far as their health goes.

What is wrong however, is E! having one of their camp counselors for the week be a celebutante who has admitted to suffering from an eating disorder, and who was hospitalized two weeks ago for “dehydration”. Come on folks… when was the last time you forgot to drink something?

The ever expanding and very diverse Jolie-Pitt clan has added another member to the brood. Angelina and 5 year-old Maddox were able to pick up Pax Thien, a 3-year-old Vietnamese boy, early yesterday morning due to her fast-tracked adoption. Jolie had to apply for the adoption as a single mother since Vietnam law prevents unmarried couples to adopt together. It is presumed that Brad Pitt will adopt Pax Thien once he is in the States.

His name means peaceful sky. Pax is Latin for “peace” and Thien is Vietnamese for “sky.” Orphanage officals say he likes soccer but is a little shy. I’m sure hanging out with this family will bring him right out his shell.

Angelina and the boys are expected to return home in about a week so Pax Thien can meet Brad, Zahara, and Shiloh.

Has Fergie made it across the pond?

Fergie was reportedly set to board a plane to fly from LAX to the UK but was considered too drunk to travel. The best part? Her band mates decided to leave her behind.

If you thought London Bridge was confusing, consider yourself lucky that you weren’t an airline staffer that day. After finding out that she couldn’t board, Fergie went on a drunken rant… An embarrassing one where she could hardly compose a sentence.

A spokesperson for airline Virgin Atlantic says, “We can confirm a female passenger was denied from boarding as she appeared intoxicated and was therefore unsuitable for travel.”

Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott welcomed their first bundle of joy on Tuesday at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Liam Aaron McDermott, 6 lbs, 6 oz, is the grandson of Aaron and Candy Spelling. Candy is said to have been present during the birth and is working on reuniting with her daughter and grandson after a feud sparked by Tori’s portrayal of her mom on her short-lived show- “So NoTORIous.”

Word from the National Enquirer says that our favorite train wreck, Britney Spears, has hooked up a musician she met in AA, and plans to move in with him once she’s out of rehab.

It seems like Britney has fallen for Jason Filyaw, the 33-year-old lead guitarist of the rock band Riva, reports the tab.

“Britney adores Jason,” a friend of Jackson’s told the Enquirer. “He’s been a tower of strength for her at the lowest point in her life. She’s convinced Jason can help her through rehab because as an alcoholic, he’s been through the same thing.”

And in classic Britney fashion, they already have pet named for eachother. He calls her Sugar, Kitten and My Lady while she calls him Mr. Secret Underground Guy and J-Sun. I guess that’s better than when she was with Justin. Does anyone remember Pinky and Stinky?

When the Enquirer contacted Jason, he said, “I have nothing to say about this.”

Silly rockstar. Doesn’t he know that “no comment” practically means “yes”?

Marc Jacobs has checked himself into rehab, after seven years of sobriety.

Only the day after showing his Louis Vuitton collection in Paris, Jacobs left the French capital and flew to a treatment facility in Arizona. The designer has publicly acknowledged substance abuse problems in the past.

Jacobs’ business partner Robert Duffy confirmed the rumor that had started to circulate around New York. “Marc made the right decision,” Duffy said. “He’d been sober for seven years. When he relapsed, he wanted to deal with it right away.

“According to the experts, such a relapse isn’t uncommon,” Duffy continued. “Thankfully, Marc recognized the problem himself and chose to deal with it. Obviously, our prayers are with him.”

Richard Jeni, a standup comedian, died of a gunshot wound in an apparent suicide, police said Sunday. Richard Jeni, 49 years old, was found alive by police, but was gravely injured. They were responding to a call that came from Jeni’s girlfriend. The caller told police “my boyfriend shot himself in the face”.

Jeni was best known for his sold out shows and his work on various sitcoms. He has starred in several HBO comedy specials, most recently A Big Steaming Pile of Me during the 2005-06 season.

In honor of “Fan Appreciation Day” in Tokyo, Michael Jackson offered fans a chance to spend a minute with the King of Pop. For $3,400 US they got a hand shake and if they were lucky a picture. Jackson also offered a bargain rate of $130 to join him on stage for a quick rendition of “You Are Not Alone.”

Jacko must be planning to hire a few more cowboys for his Neverland Ranch with rates that steep. Or maybe this was just REALLY expensive lip liner. Picture courtesy of x17online.

Brad Delp must have had “More Than a Feeling” when he dialed 911 Friday afternoon. Police found Delp dead in his New Hampshire home at the age of 55, according to E!.

Although cause of death is still being investigated, police don’t have any reason to be suspicious.

“There was nothing disrupted in the house,” Police Chief Philip Consentino told WMUR-TV. “He was a fairly healthy person from what we’re able to ascertain.”

Boston’s first album regeins as the best selling debut album in US history, by selling over 17 million copies.

Delp had been planning a summer nuptial with longtime girlfriend Pamela Sullivan. My heart goes out to you Pam cuz “Let Me Take You Home Tonight” would have been such a sweet song to walk down the aisle to.

Updating yesterday’s story on a possible second baby for Tom Brady, the Boston Herald is now reporting that Gisele Bundchen is apparently not pregnant. The supermodel’s father and sister have stated that the story, reported by a brazilian gossip website, is false.

Neither Brady nor Bundchen have yet to issue a statement on the alleged pregnancy.

So I’m sure we all let out a collective “awwww” when we heard that Kim Kardashian filed a law suit to stop the release of “Kim Kardashian Superstar” — the sex video Kim made with then-boyfriend, Ray-J (brother of R&B singer Brandy).

Well, we can now all let out a big “Yay” because it looks as if Vivid Video will be releasing it anyhow.

Steven Hirsch, Co-Chairman of Vivid, told TMZ, “I met with Kim yesterday and unfortunately, we didn’t even come close to reaching an agreement. We will now immediately move forward with the release.”

The company feels confident that they have a legal right to distribute the DVD of the video. They paid an unidentified third party $1 million for rights to the tape, which was made three years ago.
