Rihanna Parties In London, Eyes "Scarface" Role

One thing for certain is Universal Pictures' desire to remake the 1983 hit 'Scarface'. What's uncertain is whether Rihanna will be a part of it.

The 24 year-old singer, who was spotted out partying in London last night (August 30), has expressed an interest in playing in the hit film, which would be set among modern day drug-dealers, specifically in playing the role that was held by Michelle Pfeiffer - Elvira Hancock.

It appears Rihanna has been auditioning for a role in the movie based on her musical work, with one source saying, "Rihanna loves 'Scarface'. Some of her music videos have been based on Michelle's character, Elvira. She knows all the words and even has her walk perfected."

On acting in general, the singer from Barbados has said, "I didn't know if I would like it or be good at it. I really enjoyed the experience and I want to do more, try different types of roles so that I can see what I excel in most or like best."

Well there’s one more person upset by Rihanna’s interview with Oprah

By: Kareen 

Well there’s one more person upset by Rihanna’s interview with Oprah, where the “Battleship” star and singer confessed that she and her ex, the face-smacking and biting crooner Chris Brown, will always love each other.

 Chris Brown’s girlfriend, Karrueche Tran.

 Oh yeeeah. There’s someone maybe both Rihanna and Oprah should have considered before delving into the details about the star’s still-burning torch.

 A friend of Tran reported:

 “If Karreuche ever thought she stood a chance of being Chris’ main b*itch, she can forget that now. She watched Ri on ‘Oprah’ and the girl was cying. She saw how much Chris and Ri love each other, on TV no less, and it made her shed some tears. Chris always told her Rihanna was his true love and now Rihanna told the whole world that too.”

 Classy.

 An insider also had some really great things to say about Brown, too, that really put this whole situation into perspective:

 “You gotta give it to Chris though because he ain’t trying to hurt nobody. She d*mn well know how he felt… But I want you to know Chris ain’t no pimp like that. He ain’t trying to hurt Ri or KT or anybody. He’s just being real and keeping the game 100.”

 Ok. So many issues with that statement and most of them revolve around the assurance that Chris Brown isn’t trying to hurt anybody. Maybe because I remember pretty well when photos of Rihanna’s face punched into a messy pulp hit the internet, and I’m not sure that I’m going to be able to hear “hurt” and “Chris Brown” in the same sentence without cowering in the corner. 


 This whole situation, really, is all kinds of a cluster. Rihanna’s interview where she confessed her love for Brown is something that Oprah should have, honestly, considered just not airing.

 I understand that first loves are a big deal, but Brown beat the crap out of her because she pretty much called him out on cheating on her. I don’t think that’s forgivable, and I think Oprah airing it encourages girls to think it’s okay to be abused, as long as they really love the guy.

 And as far as Kerreuche Tran goes, yes, I think it would be unbelievably horrible to watch your boyfriend’s extremely rich and famous girlfriend discuss how much she misses the man you cook eggs for, but maybe she should just count her blessings that they are still going strong and let it be.

Usher wins his two kids after custody battle with ex-wife

Usher wins his two kids after custody battle with ex-wife

Here's something you don't see every day: The ex-husband -- in this case, Usher -- wins the primary custody battle over the ex-wife.

The Associated Press reports that Grammy-winning R&B singer Usher and his ex, Tameka Foster Raymond, will share legal custody but Usher will have the primary caregiving role for Usher Raymond V, 4, and Naviyd Ely Raymond, 3, beginning Sept. 1.

The decision was made by a judge in Atlanta on Friday. Tameka Raymond will have visitation rights but the details of that have not been determined yet.

No one is talking today but it would be fair to say the decision is a blow to Tameka Raymond, whose 11-year-old son, Kile Glover, died last month in a boating accident on a Georgia lake.

She and the singer, whose real name is Usher Raymond IV, married in 2007, divorced two years later, and have been battling in court ever since. Usher testified in May that during one visit, Tameka Raymond got into a fight with his girlfriend; Tameka Raymond's lawyer said he was exaggerating.

Katy Perry and John Mayer split...

American pop star Katy Perry has reportedly ended her brief romantic dalliance with fellow musician John Mayer. However, sources close to the Part of Me singer admit she is "really upset" and "hurt" about the split.

"She is making it seem like it wasn't serious with John. She doesn't want to get her heart broken again, but she feels a real connection and wants to see where things go," the source told US Weekly.

The couple's romance was first reported in June, when the two were spotted enjoying affectionate moments together at Soho House in West Hollywood. In August, at a Beverly Hills pool party, an observer confessed the two "were all over each other, making out".

Perry, who only recently divorced comedian Russell Brand after 14 months together, was reportedly eager to move on in her relationship with Mayer. She was also involved, briefly, with Robert Ackroyd, of Florence + The Machine.

"They weren't serious, but she was really starting to fall for him. She wasn't seeing forever with him, but saw it lasting longer than it did," another source told People.

Meanwhile, Mayer, who has previously dated Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Aniston and Taylor Swift, is gaining a reputation as a Casanova. There is gossip that suggests his roving eye may have been the reason behind the split.

"John did a real number on Katy," sources told Radar Online, "She held off from his advances for the longest time, but he laid on the charm thick and promised her he was a changed man. She eventually gave in, fell head over heels for him and then - yep - once he had made his conquest, he dumped her."

In fact, so strong is the tension between the two that despite appearing at a mutual friend's party, they actively avoided each other.

"It was so weird! Katy stayed in one room the whole night and John stayed in the other and when they passed each other they both just kept their heads down. It was like they had this incredible animosity for each other and everyone else at the party could feel it," an eyewitness told Radar Online, adding "You could cut the atmosphere with a knife. It was all incredibly high school!"

Kristen Stewart cheats on Robert Pattinson with married man..

Can Robert Pattinson's former girlfriend Kristen Stewart forgive herself for cheating on him and ruining their relationship?
Kristen had a storybook romance with her on-screen star, but may have ruined it forever by being caught cheating on Rob with another man.
The actress had an affair with her married 'Snow White and the Huntsman' director, Rupert Sanders, and the 22-year-old star of the 'Twilight' films has been spending her time out of the spotlight reflecting on her actions and turning to self help and enlightenment books.

A source told website Radar Online: ''Kristen is trying to find some inner peace within herself. And she is reading a lot. She has always been interested in philosophy and spirituality and she has been reading a lot of different books.
Kristen is expected to attend next month's Toronto Film Festival. She will promote her latest film, 'On The Road' but won't be addressing her cheating scandal apparently.
The source continued: ''The remorse she has isn't completely gone, but Gandhi's words have certainly helped her find peace with the whole situation. Kristen isn't beating herself up over it, she's accepted that everyone makes mistakes and she has to learn from it.''

Both Kristen Stewart and Robert are skipping the final four conventions celebrating the ending of the 'Twilight Saga', according to the movie's producers.

A statement from Creation Entertainment said: ''Although Rob, Kristen and Taylor (Lautner) will not be with us this time out we will have a super line-up of other Twilight stars and the weekend will be filled with special events , movie prop and costume displays, contests, panels, auctions, parties, exclusive merchandise, music and much more, including some surprises!''

Chad Johnson, Evelyn Lozado Full Story to date..

Chad Johnson was arrested for allegedly head-butting Evelyn after she found his receipt for a box of condoms. Evelyn says he then head-butted her in anger, while Chad believes it was all an accident.

Evelyn Lozada is finally speaking out about allegedly becoming the victim of domestic violence at the hands of her husband Chad Johnson. And while Lozada hasn’t officially written her thoughts out on her Twitter page yet, she has released a statement that confirms the police report, while also displaying her disappointment in her husband’s actions.

• Story: Chad Johnson abandons Twitter after allegedly abusing Evelyn

On Saturday, Chad Johnson was arrested for allegedly head-butting Evelyn after she found his receipt for a box of condoms. Evelyn says he then head-butted her in anger, while Chad believes it was all an accident.“I am deeply disappointed that Chad has failed to take responsibility for his actions and made false accusations against me,” Evelyn said in her officially released statement to the public.

“It is my sincere hope that he seeks the help he needs to overcome his troubles. Domestic violence is not okay and hopefully my taking a stand will help encourage other women to break their silence as well,” she added.

• Story: Evelyn gets nasty tweets from skeptical fans

Through it all, Evelyn has been able to get support on Twitter from her fans. While she hasn’t responded to any tweets personally, people have left thousands of supportive comments lamenting the domestic violence that is alleged to have transpired.

And for that, Evelyn is eternally thankful.

“I’m grateful to my family, friends and fans for the outpouring of support during this difficult time,” said Evelyn in her statement.Since the Chad and Evelyn story broke online on Saturday, VH1 has cancelled their upcoming wedding special “Ev & Ocho.” Evelyn Lozada is sadly also coping with the death of her brother-in-law, too.

 “Basketball Wives.” Evelyn Lozada is being blamed by former NFL star Warren Sapp for having instigated a fight with Chad Johnson that ultimately led to his release from the Miami Dolphins and Lozada filing for a divorce shortly thereafter.

In a recent interview with the Miami Times News, Warren Sapp is asked about the Chad Johnson and Evelyn Lozada fight. Here’s his take on it.

You think they used the Evelyn Lozada fight to kick him off the team?

Come on. Tell me the first and last name of a brother who headbutted someone.

 Chad Johnson, I suppose.

No, before that. When is the last time one of your homeboys called you and told you, "Let me tell you about this fight at the club last night where this guy and his girlfriend were walking by and he turned around and headbutted the girl." Never. He's taking the rap for it. We don't do that. She did it. That's a woman that is going to depend on her beauty for the rest of her life to open any door she wants to walk through, and she is going to do what to her forehead? I'm done. [Chad] is a bunch of fun and I am sorry this had to happen to him.

Since the fight went public, Evelyn Lozada has gone into hiding. She has only recently been spotted publicly, where she was wearing a colorful dress and a blue hat. Many are already speculating that Evelyn was wearing the hat to cover up her injuries, although if you ever watched “Basketball Wives,” Evelyn wearing a hat is not anything particularly new or odd.

Evelyn Lozada’s Twitter has been dead silent since the incident too, with her only tweeting about the recent passing of her brother-in-law, whom she was very close too. It’s possible that Evelyn Lozada’s divorce, or simply her lawyers, have caused her not to say anything publicly (aside from her officially released statement one week ago).

Evelyn and Chad’s upcoming new TV show, “Ev & Ocho,” has also been cancelled by VH1. It was set to air within two weeks.

TCA: Simon Cowell says Britney Spears is 'mean' on 'X-Factor'

Will the theme song for the new season of Fox's "The X Factor"be Britney Spears' "Hit Me Baby One More Time?"

It might be, judging from what Simon Cowell said about Spears joining the singing competitiion series along with Demi Lovato.

"She's quite mean," Cowell said of Spears during a TCA session for the series. He also teased Lovato about her bluntness toward him and the contestants, calling Lovato "a brat." Still, he praised both singers for bringing what he called youthful energy and honesty to the series.

American Idol': Mariah Carey announced as newest judge

"American Idol" has announced one new judge for Season 12 -- recording artist Mariah Carey. Fox Broadcasting Company President of Entertainment Kevin Reily made the big announcement at the Television Critics Association press panel on Monday (July 23).

"We do in fact have one judge whose deal closed very, very recently. I think it's the biggest recording artist that any of these shows have ever had," says Reilly. "It's an artist that many contestants have tried to emulate, have tried to have sung the songs, have tried to have hit the notes and because it really was concluded only hours ago, our new judge cannot be with us."

Reilly then called Mariah Carey on the phone, who said hello to all the TCA members. 

"I am so excited to be joining 'Idol,' I wanted to be there today and I wish I could've been there myself to tell you. But I think you know this all kind of just happened really quickly," says Carey. "Everybody have a great TCA and I will see you in January."

Carey also adds via a press release, "As a singer, songwriter and producer, it's going to be fun and rewarding to help find new talent and give back with 'American Idol.' ... I can't wait to channel my creative energy as a part of this show which is a massive global phenomenon."

While Reilly cannot confirm any other judges, even judge Randy Jackson's return, he does say that Jackson helped cement the Mariah Carey signing, as the two have worked together for years in the recording studio.

"Randy was very instrumental in doing this deal," says Reilly.

UPDATE: In case you're curious about her payday, TMZ is claiming "Idol" sources say Mariah's one-year deal on the show is nabbing her $18 million, which leaves Britney's "X Factor" deal at $15 million and J.Lo's first-year $12 million "Idol" deal in the dust.

Chris Brown disses Drake in new song

The war is certainly not over.

It's been nearly three weeks since Chris Brown, Drake and their posses got into a brawl at an NYC club, but Brown is not ready to move on.

PHOTOS: Chris Brown and Rihanna through the years

The 23-year-old rapper released a remixed version of Chief Keef's track "I Don't Like" on Saturday through Djorator.com. Brown is joined by the Game in the new track and takes aim at Drake, 25, by attacking his courage.

Although he doesn't mention the "Take Care" rapper by name, Brown raps about their June 14 brawl that left five people injured. "'They throwin' bottles, I'm throwin' models," he says in one verse. And he challenges him to another fight, rapping, "This head up, my bread up, one on one, what you scared, bruh? Matter fact, take care bruh…"

PHOTOS: Celeb feuds: Whose side are you on?

Drake's rep shared his take on nasty fight, telling Us Weekly, "Drake did not participate in any wrongdoing of any kind last night at W.i.P. He was on his way out of the club when the altercation began. He did not engage in any activity which resulted in injury to person or damage to property."

And an eyewitness at the nightclub told Us, "It was entourage versus entourage, never Drake versus Chris...It was lot of pushing and shoving. People were picking up ice buckets in case they had to throw it. They tore the club apart. It was bad. People went to the hospital!"

Kim Kardashian & Kanye West Get Laser Hair Removal for Matching Smooth Skin

They already like to wear coordinating outfits, and now thatKim Kardashian & Kanye West were spotted leaving alaser hair removal clinic together, it sounds like they'll complement each other with their smooth skin too.

Kim & Kanye showed up in her black Rolls-Royce to have their treatments done, though it's not clear what areas of their body they were looking to make permanently hair free. But considering the fact that Kanye's mustache is still visible, I'm guessing they aren't concerned about unwanted facial hair. Their treatments must be concentrating on other (ahem) areas.

Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes Divorcing..

As Tom Cruise's relationship with Katie Holmes grinds toward divorce, tabloids and the rumor mill are pointing at his devout adherence to the Church of Scientology as a primary cause for their breakup.. 

According to her prenuptial agreement with Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes could be awarded up to $3 million for each year of marriage

According to TMZ, Katie Holmes is seeking primary custody of her daughter Suri and has requested “a suitable amount” of child support from her husband Tom Cruise in divorce papers filed on Thursday.

High-profile celebrity couple Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise are divorcing after five years of marriage, People magazine has reported. It was a marriage that started in an Italian castle and endured through years of hit movies, controversial couch jumping and clashes over Scientology.

A representative for Cruise told People that Holmes filed the divorce, leaving Cruise “deeply saddened.”

Now, however, the couple must come to grips with the details of dissolving one of Hollywood’s most famous unions. Holmes, 33, should expect to receive a substantial settlement from her soon-to-be-former husband. According to the terms of their 2006 prenuptial agreement, the actress is entitled to about $15 million.

In the event of a divorce, the document states, Holmes would be awarded $3 million for each year that she and Cruise, 49, were married — up to a possible $33 million. She will also receive the couple’s home in Montecito, Calif., MSNBC reported in 2006. If their marriage had lasted more than 11 years, Holmes would have received half of Cruise’s reportedly $250 million fortune.

Their separation could lead to a legal battle over custody of their 6-year-old daughter Suri, although both sides have stated that Suri’s welfare is their highest concern.

Holmes’ parents originally wanted her to avoid marrying Cruise, a tipster told the Scoop magazine in 2006, but then changed their minds. “If she walks now, Tom will fight her for custody of [Suri], and Katie can’t outlast him in court,” an insider told the Scoop in 2006. “She knows she needs to marry him to get the money to fight him for custody, if it comes to that.”

If Holmes wins custody of their daughter, the child-support payments she’s entitled to could prove sizable. When model Linda Evangelista split with her French billionaire boyfriend earlier this year, a court awarded her $550,000 in annual child-support payments.

Lauryn Hill pleads guilty faces jail time...

NEWARK, N.J. -- Eight-time Grammy-winning singer Lauryn Hill pleaded guilty Friday to not paying federal taxes on more than $1.5 million earned over three years.

Appearing in U.S. District Court in Newark, Hill admitted failing to file tax returns from 2005 to 2007. She faces a maximum one-year sentence on each of the three counts. She was charged three weeks ago.

Dressed in a dark jacket, white button-up shirt and a long reddish-orange skirt, Hill declined to comment after Friday's hearing. During the hearing, attorney Nathan Hochman indicated that Hill planned to pay back the taxes she owes.

U.S. Magistrate Michael Shipp initially scheduled sentencing for early October but agreed to delay it until late November to give Hill time to make repayment.

Hill admitted she didn't pay taxes on about $818,000 earned in 2005, $222,000 in 2006 and $761,000 in 2007. The money was earned by four corporations she owned.

The 37-year-old South Orange resident got her start with The Fugees and began her solo career in 1998 with the critically acclaimed album "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill."

She then largely disappeared from public view to raise her six children, five of whom she had with Rohan Marley, the son of famed reggae singer Bob Marley.

After the charges were brought, Hill posted a long statement on her Tumblr page that decried pop culture's "climate of hostility, false entitlement, manipulation, racial prejudice, sexism and ageism." She explained that she hasn't paid taxes since she withdrew from society to guarantee the safety and well-being of herself and her family.

Hill hinted Friday that she might expand on those comments at her sentencing. When Shipp asked her if anyone had directly or indirectly influenced her decision to plead guilty, she replied, "Indirectly, I've been advised my ability to speak out directly is for another time, at sentencing."

Kim Kardashian celebrates 2 million Instagram fans by stripping..

When many people talk about android application Instagram, one thing that seems to always end up being talked about are the number of women who use the app to take photos of their breasts. As a way of proving the point, Kim Kardashian has celebrated gaining two million Instagram fans by poster a picture of herself in her underwear.

The reality star tweeted, “Thanks to all you 2million sexy beasts out there for following me on Instagram! So here's a little present of instagram,”

The star is no stranger to posting revealing shots of herself on various social networking sites, so this is hardly unexpected in such an arena. She recently posted a photo of herself in a small orange bikini top just a few days ago.

In other Kardashian news the star’s relationship with Kanye West seems to be going strong, with a source quoted in the Sun today as saying, “Kim's desperate to show Kanye she's not some kind of bimbo, so she's reading up on Nietzsche as Kanye says he's a huge inspiration of his. She's making sure she reads the papers and the news every day and has downloaded the CNN app on her phone to keep up to the minute.”
