Madonna and Guy Ritchie Settle for At Least $76 Million
Madonna has settled with ex-husband Guy Ritchie for at least $76 million in cash and assets, according to her spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg.The divorce payout, which Rosenberg said is somewhere in the range of $76 to $92 million, is considered by some to be a record for a man from his ex-wife.
The payout includes the couple's country estate Ashcombe House in Wiltshire, as well as a cash lump sum thought to be at much as $53 million.
Rosenberg said the couple's west London pub -- the Punchbowl -- would also remain with Ritchie.
But U.K.-based entertainment lawyer Ambi Sitham said it made sense for Madonna to divest herself of her British property.
Madonna Out Big Bucks
Madonna and ex-husband Guy Ritchie have tidied up their financial split by Madonna agreeing to leave behind $76 million.
The singer's spokesperson, Liz Rosenberg, told The Associated Press the sum includes the value of the couple's country estate, Ashcombe House, which goes to Ritchie. The former couple's West London pub, the Punchbowl, also stays with the director.
Together, the couple was reportedly worth about $525 million, $35 million of which Ritchie brought to the table. The rest was Madonna's.
The settlement is about twice what it cost Paul McCartney to part with Heather Mills.
U.K attorney Ambi Sitham said there was no reason for Madonna to keep the two places.
"She's moving back to New York. It's money she's already paid out - what is she going to do, try to sell the houses in a flagging market?"
All that remain to be finalized are the custody arrangements for their 2 young sons.
Beyonce on Oprah: Who is Sasha Fierce?
This afternoon, Beyonce sat down with Oprah and talked about all things Sasha Fierce, Hamburger Helper, and her role as Etta James in Cadillac Records. Oprah attempted to get some wedding info out of her, but that’s still a private affair. When will that veil be lifted? I’m guessing at some point after Beyonce pops out a baby Bee or Jay.
Yeah, Oprah asked Beyonce if she was pregnant.
Beyonce Chats it Up with Oprah
Nope. That should be fairly obvious with a new album that’s going to have Sasha performing from Tennessee to Shanghai. Once that’s a wrap, Sasha will make an encore performance at home and you’ll see those big belly candids floating around the web. Then the privacy which the ‘mystery couple’ loves will be a little more challenging to maintain.
There is no way they’ll be able to tuck those baby pictures away from the public. That’s when you hit em with, ‘So how was the wedding?’..
Beyonce Reveals Wedding Details
So when the two tied the knot last April in front of a celebrity guest list that included Gwyneth Paltrow and Coldplay's Chris Martin, the couple-- not surprisingly-- managed to keep the press guessing when they exchanged vows atop a NYC apartment building.
But if anyone can get a blushing bride to spill, it's the queen of media herself, Oprah Winfrey. On Thursday's show to promote her new album, I Am Sasha Fierce, Beyonce finally revealed a few sparse details about her wedding day.
"It was very private, and I can say outside it was paparazzi and it was madness, and inside it was really beautiful," Beyonce told Oprah, adding that it's taken her a while to realize the value of keeping her personal life her own.
"I had to really learn how to have boundaries and how to have balance," she said. "It's something that I have never really talked about, and I still feel like it was difficult--and it still is--because I'm so excited about it. But it's important that I keep things that are pure and real in perspective and I keep it separate from my performance life."
Beyonce told Oprah it feels great to be married but added that it's also important to make a committment to yourself before walking down the aisle.
"Make sure you have your own life before you're someone else's wife," she said.
Meanwhile, Beyonce tells Seventeen Magazine's Dec./Jan. issue that she consciously waited until she was of a certain age to get married. "Before the age of 25 I would never get married," the singer, now 27, says. "I feel like you have to get to know yourself, know what you want, spend some time by yourself and be proud of who you are before you can share that with someody else."
She adds, I really don't believe that you will love the same thing when you're 20 as you do at 30."
Miley Cyrus is reportedly dating Marshall, her 22-year-old backup dancer. PerezHilton.com is reporting that the 15 year-old Cyrus has been spotted kissing and hugging her older boyfriend.
It is possible that Miley Cyrus was using the computer to send the pictures to her boyfriends. This is the “older man” that her mother is trying to keep Miley Cyrus from seeing. Star Magazine reported that a friend said “Miley is getting too big for her britches and had to be taken down a notch.”
What do you think of Miley Cyrus’s relationship with 22-year-old Marshall?
Miley Cyrus 22 Year Old Boyfriend?
Miley Cyrus might have a new boyfriend and his name is Marshall, a 22 year old back-up dancer. Perezhilton.com reported that the 15 year-old Cyrus has been hanging out with this guy a little more than usual. No official word if he is her boyfriend.
It seems that things are getting a little worse for troubled rap star R. Kelly, a woman has now come forward and has admitted that she participated in a sex session with Kelly and the under-aged girl. This will do little to help his case, the R&B star has also been accused of offering women £125,000 in the hope that they would cover up footage, which is damming to the case.
The woman in question is called Lisa Van Allen, while in court she told the jurors in the sex trail that she had sex with R. Kelly and the under aged victim in front of a camera, back in 1998. Allen also claimed that the sex session took place in the same Illinois home where prosecutors claim that the sex tape was made. Lisa also claimed to have been involved in a second sex session in 1999 with the victim, who she believes was 16. Allen said that cried all the way through it.
While on the stand, Van Allen also told jurors how Kelly offered her money to try and recover a tape, which had one of his sex sessions on it. One of Kelly’s associates then collected the tape from her and handed over £10,000.
Kelly’s defence attorneys have accused Allen of trying to extort the singer; we will have to wait until Wednesday when they will open their case.

Woman claims tryst with R. Kelly, alleged victim
Prosecutors rested their case in R. Kelly's child pornography trial after a day of sensational testimony about alleged trysts, extortion plots and a duffel bag full of sex tapes.Star prosecution witness Lisa Van Allen cried on the witness stand, pausing to regain her composure, as she described several alleged three-way sexual encounters with the R&B star and the alleged victim, some of which she claimed Kelly videotaped.
Van Allen, 27, also told jurors in more than three hours of testimony Monday that Kelly offered her $250,000 last year to recover a tape of one of the trysts.
During cross-examination, a defense attorney accused Van Allen of plotting to extort money from the singer, which she denied. Under further questioning, she admitted she once stole Kelly's $20,000 diamond-studded watch from a hotel.
"Van Allen is an admitted thief and liar who wouldn't know the truth if she tripped over it," Kelly's business manager, Derrel McDavid, said in a statement.
Kelly, 41, faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted of child pornography for allegedly videotaping himself having sex with a female prosecutors say was as young as 13. He has pleaded not guilty and both he and the alleged victim, now 23, deny being on the video — which is separate from those Van Allen testified to being on.
The state, which called more than a dozen witnesses over two weeks, rested its case after Van Allen's testimony. Jurors will get Tuesday off before the defense begins its presentation on Wednesday.
Van Allen told jurors Monday she first had sex with Kelly and the alleged victim in 1998. Kelly would have been around 30 years old at the time, Van Allen about 18 and the alleged victim would have been 14, according to prosecutors' estimates.
Van Allen said Kelly told her then that the alleged victim was 16. The age of legal consent in Illinois is 17.
The three-way sex took place in the same home on Chicago's North Side where prosecutors say the sex tape at the center of the case was made, Van Allen told jurors.
She said she began crying during a second sexual encounter in 1999 with Kelly and the alleged victim, causing an upset Kelly to pick up the video camera and leave the room. She said that encounter took place at the house's basketball court.
"I started crying ... because I didn't want to do it," Van Allen testified. She said Kelly complained that her crying ruined the footage and that he never kept tapes during which she cried.
A final three-way encounter occurred in a trailer during a video shoot in Chicago in 2000, Van Allen said. When someone came to the trailer door, the alleged victim "had to run into the bathroom naked" because Kelly did not want others to see her there, she told jurors.
Several months pregnant, Van Allen, from Georgia, initially appeared relaxed on the witness stand and smiled frequently. But she wept when she discussed the second alleged encounter. Prosecutors paused for two minutes as she dabbed tears from her face.
Kelly looked on from across the room as Van Allen testified, at least once appearing to shake his head and other times staring at his folded hands.
Van Allen told jurors that Kelly offered her $250,000 last year to recover a tape of one of the encounters with the alleged victim. She said acquaintances of hers took the tape from Kansas City to a Chicago hotel, where it was handed over to a Kelly associate who paid $20,000 in cash.
Van Allen portrayed Kelly as obsessed with videotaping his sexual exploits, testifying that he even carried around a duffel bag with his homemade sex tapes in it.
"He carried it everywhere with him," she said. "Wherever he was at, the bag would follow him."
Van Allen said she first met Kelly at the making of a music video in Georgia about 10 years ago. She later appeared in several Kelly music videos, including one for the song "I Wish," in which she braids the singer's hair.
During a 1998 Kelly concert tour, Van Allen said she simulated having sex with the singer in front of the audience.
"You didn't cry then, did you?" asked defense attorney Sam Adam Sr., who repeatedly suggested Van Allen's tears in court were disingenuous.
Before Van Allen took the stand, Judge Vincent Gaughan advised that she had been appointed an attorney, saying some of her testimony might be "self-incriminating." She was granted immunity by prosecutors.
Van Allen said she approached prosecutors about testifying in the case only several months ago — six years after Kelly was charged.
"It's the right thing to do," she told jurors.
But Adam said Van Allen had ulterior motives when she contacted prosecutors in March, including to help get a reduced sentence in a weapons case for a man she lives with.
Adam also noted that Van Allen told prosecutors only Monday that she stole Kelly's watch in 2001.
"So the spirit didn't move you to do the right thing about this (the watch) until today?" Adam asked. He pointed across the courtroom at Kelly. "You tried to extort that man over there," he said.
Van Allen denied the accusation, saying Kelly asked her in 2007 whether she could hand over the tape of one of their three-way encounters.
Asked whether she knew of any other copies of that tape, Van Allen gestured at Kelly across the room, referring to him by his birth name.
"Robert would know," she said.
Never to shy away from showing his interest in Caldwell, Cook even asked her out on the TV Guide Network. "I'm just excited because I finally get to talk to you," he told her during an interview on the Idol Tonight show Wednesday night, May 21. "I've been hearing you say all these nice things about me all season, So I'm actually going to ask you to dinner right now."
Got a 'yes' from Caldwell, Cook was caught dining with her at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in New York over the weekend. On their dinner, Cook was quoted as telling "Extra" Caldwell was "great. So far, I've had a really good time with her."
Cook, moreover, also said during an interview on "Live With Regis and Kelly" Tuesday, May 27, he did have good time with Caldwell adding that "We'll probably hang out again. So we'll see."
Caldwell is a contestant on the second season of Fox Network's singing competition television show "American Idol". She was the sixth finalist eliminated and finished in seventh place.
Shay Johnson, more popularly known as Buckeey, is a girl from the Flavor of Love. Buckeey has been associated with a s*x tape. This would be a gossip/ rumor item and that could be a fake s*x tape. The link is below.
There was some gossip about the guy in the tape. He could be her boyfriend. The tape could be a hoax.
NSFW Tape link: there.
Yep, there is yet another s*x tape making the rounds on the internet. Seems like every other day another famous person is shown doing the deed online. Can’t people be more careful having s*x? At least check the room for cameras before taking your close off.
This time the tape is of “Buckeey” Shay Johnson from “Flavor of Love” Season 2. The video, running 1:39 minutes, shows a woman who looks very much like Johnson, but it has not been confirmed that the tape is authentic. Rumors of a “Buckeey s*x tape” began circulating in 2007, but this is the first possible video that has emerged.
In the video it shows the woman, allegedly Buckeey, giving the unidentified man, allegedly Buckeey's ex-boyfriend, oral satisfaction, which later positions are turned around and the seemingly unprotected s*x continues. The video abruptly ends with a short message from the alleged 'Buckeey' stating that the man had relieved himself on her.

Cindy McCain appears in the June issue of Vogue looking relaxed, beautiful and well, American. In images captured by famed photographer Norman Jean Roy, McCain's wife is ditching her usual Stepford look in favor of a more relaxed, human look.
Robin Givhan called it earlier, when she wrote in an article about the aspiring first ladies, "McCain appears to be working to shatter a public image of the pretty — but starched — accessory."
The wife of (one of the) Democratic hopefuls, Michelle Obama, also had a Vogue shoot last September, which produced images that had an opposite message to McCain's.
Givhan commented: "Obama's photos seemed crafted specifically to help the viewer imagine her in the role of first lady. She is a study in little black dresses, conservative pearls, preppy hair and restraint. Again, the implied message is unmistakable: I am neither subversive nor threatening. I am not some scary 'other.' I am Camelot with a tan."
Some “source” is telling Splash News that Adnan Ghalib is shopping a Britney Spears sex tape from a vacation the two went on to Mexico. A Britney Spears sex tape complete with the pink wig.
That source has a first name that rhymes with “Badnan” and a last name that rhymes with “Ghalib.” Okay, okay, the source’s last name actually is Ghalib.
“Word is that the video starts with Britney undressing,” said the insider. “She was wearing some cheap clothes that she bought down there in Rosarito. The sex wasn’t particularly kinky but Britney wears a pink wig throughout. At one point in the tape Adnan asks the singer to remove the pink bob but she refused. “Adnan tells her to take it off at one point and she says coyly, ‘Take what off? There’s nothing left to take off.’”
Ugh, I don’t really care. I mean, I’d watch a Britney Spears sex tape, because, come on, who wouldn’t?, but I don’t think I’d really be all that excited about it. I’d be way more interested just to hear, like, the inane conversations these two had in the car.
Mariah Carey’s former boyfriend has been left heartbroken over the revelation of the singer’s quickie marriage to twenty-seven year old rapper Nick Cannon.
Record producer Mark Sudack, who split from Mariah, thirty-eight, at the beginning of the year is “shattered” that the diva married Nick after less than two months of dating.
“Everyone is scared to call him because no one knows what to say,” an US Weekly spy tattles. “He never thought she would go off and marry someone else. He’s heartbroken and shocked.”
Mariah, on the other hand, is basking in the comfort of wedded bliss: “Everyone’s calling me M.C.C’, which stands for Mariah Carey Cannon,” the Grammy winner gushed in a recent interview.
According to Maxim magazine, Supermodel Marisa Miller is the hottest woman in the world.
They say the blonde bombshell “embodies the official return of the all-American supermodel. Not since Cindy Crawford ruled the catwalk has a pinup born and bred on U.S. soil so thoroughly captured the imagination of the American male.”
Of her career, Miller says:
”I get a kick out of it, but it would be stupid to let it go to my head. It’s modeling – I didn’t find the cure for cancer.”
Other hotties on the list include newly-engaged Scarlett Johansson in the No. 2 spot, Jessica Biel at No. 3, and Eva Longoria Parker, who the magazine dubs “hotter than a truckload of jalapenos,” at No. 4.
Also in the top 10: Sarah Michelle Gellar, Elisha Cuthbert, Eva Mendes, Christina Aguilera, Lindsay Lohan, who topped last year’s list, and Ashley Tisdale.
Pics of Marisa are from April 2, as she unveiled Victoria’s Secret swim 2008 collection at the Victoria’s Secret Herald Square flagship store.
Tony Romo partied like a rock star with college friends in Chicago this weekend, and reportedly revealed to his friends that he and Jessica Simpson have split! Said a buddy:
“They’re broken up. He told us they broke up and that was that. We’re guys so we didn’t talk about it much.”
Romo enjoyed the ladies' attention everywhere he went on Saturday night. An eyewitness said at one bar:
“He was surrounded by girls. We had to restrain some who forcibly tried to make their way to his table.”
The evening ended at the Manor Nightclub, where the "bevy of beauties" hanging out in the VIP section were not enough for Romo and his friends. They supposedly "sent the nightclub’s bus to pick up more girls from the Hard Rock Hotel where Romo and his friends were crashing."
Hmmmm.... what to make of this news. I'm wondering if Jessica dumped HIM because she's pissed that Ashlee is tying the knot before she could get remarried.... and/or that Ashlee is supposedly going to have a baby before Jessica. Or maybe it's all a big publicity stunt engineered by Papa Joe! Which would not surprise me in the least.
These are some shots of Megan Fox topless while filming Jennifer’s Body. Although is there any point to even putting stuff here? I’m just going to stop typing because, seriously, who’s looking at the words when HOLY CRAP, IT’S MEGAN FOX’S BOOBS! Obviously, these pics are NSFW and if you couldn’t figure that out, please e-mail me where you’ll be operating a motor vehicle. Mostly so I can take such necessary precautions as, I dunno, running for my fucking life.
NOTE: Yeah, either she’s wearing pasties or her nipples are made out of plastic. Either way, it looks close enough to naked that maybe censoring the pics will still keep you from getting fired.
Pop icon Madonna has announced that she will launch her 27-date world tour in Cardiff on 23 August.
The Sticky and Sweet tour will start at the Millennium Stadium, winding up in Miami on 26 November.
Tickets go on sale from 0900 BST 16 May with prices for the Cardiff show, starting at £55.
The tour will stop in major cities across Europe including London and Paris, as well as cities in the US.
Her last tour was in 2006 and concert organisers said more than 1.3m people went to her shows at venues across the world.
It made her the highest-grossing concert tour by a female artist at the time.
Her recent album, Hard Candy, has debuted at number one at 27 countries so far including the US, UK, France, Germany, Japan and Australia, according to her record company.
The 49-year-old star is due to play BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend in Kent on Saturday.
It's official!
Scarlett's rep has confirmed the engagement, saying that "they're both thrilled."
Scarlett's expected to debut her ring tonight, at the Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala in New York. We'll have the pics as soon as they exist, of course.
Ryan was, you'll recall, previously engaged to Alanis Morissette, who I certainly hope will be writing some sort of angsty ditty about this crap. I hope it's called "I've Released Seven Goddamn Albums and Not a Single One of Them Has Contained a Tom Waits Cover, You Pretentious Little Bitch."
You know what's really weird? Even though they've been dating for a year, there are no pictures of the two of them together. I checked three photo services, and couldn't find a single one. Strange indeed.
Here are some excerpts from the Tom Cruise Oprah Interview, tentatively titled “See! I’m Not Crazy!”
On the Couch Jumping Incident
“When we finished that show with you jumping up on the sofa, I was like, ‘Wow. What was that?’” she tells him in an interview in his Telluride, Colo., home. “I had no idea it was going to turn into an international brouhaha, as I’m sure you did not either.”
She even confesses, “I was a little nervous coming up this morning, I have to admit, because you and I have not sat down for a real conversation since the sofa incident.”
Cruise tells Winfrey, “I just felt that way, and I feel that way about her.
“I can’t even articulate it, to be honest,” he adds. “That feeling, that connection. Just who she is and what she means to me.”
Of the negative response to his couch jumping, Cruise says, “It just kind of kept going.
“Those things I kind of go, ‘You just have to take in stride.’ It just kind of became a confluence of things.”
ON ATTACKING MATT LAUER
He also opened up about his 2005 interview with Matt Lauer (Cruise attacked the anchor, calling him “glib” during a chat about psychiatry and the use of anti-depressant drugs).
“I was feeling pressed in the interview with Matt Lauer,” Cruise says. “For me, my issue was really about child drugging. It’s not like it is today, like people are really kind of openly talking about this.”
(Cruise now says of medicating children, “I think the parent should be able to and should make that decision.”)
ON SLAMMING BROOKE SHIELDS
He says his comments on post-partum depression “came out wrong.” (He slammed Brooke Shields in the same 2005 interview for taking Paxil to treat post-partum depression following the birth of her daughter Rowan.)
“What I regret is even discussing Brooke in any way,” Cruise says.
He says the incident has brought the two of them “closer” (Shields attended his 2006 wedding to Holmes.)
ON BEING A SCIENTOLOGIST
Cruise dodges Winfrey’s question about whether he feels people negatively target him because of his Scientology involvement.
“It’s a minority religion, and I think that sometimes people misinterpret [it],” he says. “I think the best thing is for people to read about it themselves. I believe people have the right to choose what they believe in.
“The code of Scientologists says you respect the religious beliefs of others,” Cruise adds. “That’s part of being a Scientologist, and that’s who I am as a person.”
In January, videos leaked online of Cruise at Scientology events discussing the religion. He says the footage “was stolen. I was receiving an award that evening for global literacy. It was a very private moment. I’m actually talking to my congregation.”
“It’s [taken] totally out of context,” he adds.
ON BUYING A SONOGRAM MACHINE FOR HOLMES DURING HER PREGNANCY
Cruise says he and Holmes took great pains to keep her pregnancy private. “We went in the middle of the night, and we were very excited — this is such a private moment,” he says.
“My life was already a zoo,” he says. When news leaked, “it was off the charts.”
As for purchasing a sonogram machine for Holmes, Cruise explains, “When you’re having a baby, you just want it to be as safe and as easy as possible.”
ON KEEPING SURI HIDDEN FOR SO LONG
Lots of rumors spread about their daughter, Suri, because the couple kept her hidden after she was born. Some blogs speculated that the child was deformed. That talk, Cruise says, was “hard to hear.
“We just want to have our baby, have the kids and everyone get to know Suri, get the family up here and just chill and have that time that you never get back,” he explains. “You don’t ever get those moments back.”
On waiting three months to publish her photo in Vanity Fair in 2006, Cruise says, “Kate and I didn’t feel any need to [rush] it. We said, ‘Why? It’s our family.’ We just were on Suri time.”
ON DAUGHTER SURI
“She’s spectacular,” he says. “She really is just magic.”
His two children with ex Nicole Kidman, Connor and Isabella, “were really excited.”
ON HIS MARRIAGE WITH HOLMES BEING FAKE
“That’s laughable to me,” Cruise says. ‘You just know that they’re trying to sell it and spin it.”
He says Holmes’ Catholic family has welcomed him.
“They’re amazing. I love them,” Cruise says. “You see why Kate is such an amazing woman — incredible integrity and strength. They’re family.”
ON RUMORS THAT HE HAS PUSHED NICOLE KIDMAN OUT OF THEIR KIDS’ LIVES
“No, that’s ridiculous,” he says. “We share custody. That’s what it is.”
ON HIS REPUTATION
“Listen I, I feel like definitely things have been misunderstood, and there are things I could have done better,” Cruise admits. “But then there’s also that world where you go, ‘Oh, it’s been spun to such an extent that … that’s a truth also.’
He continues, “Knowing when and where to communicate, I think that’s important.
“A lot of times I was nervous giving interviews. Or I wasn’t sometimes as comfortable about things. And I realized that it’s okay.
“There’s stuff you have to just let go,” Cruise adds. “I just have to do the best I can.” - source
So what do you think? Is he really nuts, or is it just the bad media spin?
The two HOT Veronicas have taken the lead in the sexiest women in the world. The two - known as the Veronicas have come third and fourth on FHM mens magazine's annual sexiest women in the world list, ahead of Miranda Kerr and Jennifer Hawkins.
About 230,000 Australian men voted to rank the top 100 women.
Jess Origliasso, who has recently been in the spotlight for her diminishing frame and speculation about her relationship with MTV host Ruby Rose, led the Aussie contingent on the list by taking third place.
Her sister Lisa Origliasso, who this week announced her engagement to former Australian Idol star and pin up Dean Geyer, was fourth.
US actor Jessica Alba won the top spot, while compatriot actor Megan Fox was second.
Aussie model Miranda Kerr took fifth place and former Miss Universe Jennifer Hawkins was sixth.
Aussies dominated the list, making up nearly one-third of the total with 29 representatives.
Singer Natalie Imbruglia was eighth and Lara Bingle rounded out the top ten.
Other Australian beauties to make the cut were 43-year-old newsreader Sandra Sully (62), middle distance runner Tamsyn Lewis (22) and Natalie Bassingthwaite (23).
FHM editor Ben Smithurst said it was no surprise there were so many Australians on the list.
"This is a reaffirmation that Australia is home to the world's sexiest ladies," he said.
"Australian ladies are known across the world for their beauty, charm and intelligence."
The list will be published in FHM's June edition, which goes on sale on Monday, May 5
Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon a...Mariah Elopes With her rumored fiance Nick Cannon!!!
A source close to Nick Cannon has confirmed exclusively to Latina.com that Cannon and Mariah Carey are already married! The couple wed yesterday in a small ceremony on an island and it was "very impulsive," according to our source. The wedding was attended by a few close friends of the couple, including Da Brat.
Congratulations to the happy couple!!
A source close to Nick Cannon has confirmed exclusively to Latina.com that Cannon and Mariah Carey are married! The couple wed yesterday, April 30, in a small ceremony on an island and it was "very implusive," according to our source. The wedding was attended by a few close friends of the couple, including Da Brat.
Details forthcoming, but we'd like to be the first to say congrats to the happy couple!
UPDATE:
An additional source close to Carey now confirms that the couple married at a home the singer recently purchased in Eleuthera, The Bahamas. "They have been smitten with each other for days, weeks...and she's always had a crush on him," the source tells the New York Post. "There was no pre-nup--there wasn't time," dishes another source.
Carey, 38, and Cannon, 27, have been dating for just two months, and rumors began to swirl that the couple was engaged when Carey arrived to the April 26 Tribeca Film Festival premiere of her new movie, Tennessee, wearing a huge ring on her left finger. Though speculation arose that the ring previously belonged to Cannon's former fianceé, model Selita Ebanks, People now reports that the rings are not the same.
Stay tuned for more developments...
Mariah Carey and actor Nick Cannon are engaged.
Mariah put a massive rock on display on her left-hand ring finger at the after party for her new movie Tennessee at the TriBeCa Film Festival in NYC this past weekend.
The engagement ring was later identified as the same ring Nick gave his former fiance, Victoria’s Secret model Selita Ebanks.
Nick was previously engaged to Selita from May to October 2007.
A source close to Cannon’s ex-fiance, Selita confirms “That IS the same ring.”
Mariah, 38-years-old, has been quietly dating Nick, 27-years-old, for a few months now.
When People magazine asked Cannon what he loved about Carey, he said “Everything!”
Seems like Nick Cannon didn’t want to put the ring to a waste after Selita returned it to him and reused it on 11-years his senior Mariah Carey.
How long will the pair last?
Oh, that Paula Abdul! Always good for a laugh--even if they are all at her expense.
So, last night on "American Idol" each of the remaining 5 contestants had to sing two Neil Diamond songs. Because the show is only an hour, Ryan Seacrest hauled them out like cattle after they all sang their first song and had the judges do a quickie critique. Paula does her thing, but one problem: she gives feedback to Jason Castro on two songs. Which means one of two things: the show is scripted beyond belief--which could account for Ryan's semi-flustered "you're seeing the future, baby" comment--or Paula was late taking her meds. Or early. Could go either way there.
Paula claimed she got mixed up (shocking!) and that her second song comments were really meant for David Cook's first song. Of course that doesn't explain why her first reaction was "I thought you sang twice" when called on her blunder. Doh!
I swear, though, it made my night watching this. I love the shot of the contestants on stage as she's talking. You know they're all thinking "Huh?" That crazy pillhead really does bring the unintentional comedy gold, that's for sure.
Jamie Lynn Spears and her fiancé Casey Aldridge spent the weekend four-wheeling with friends in Liberty, Mississippi. Because she’s 6 months pregnant and everyone knows you should jostle around unborn babies as much as possible. “Try to violently rock the mom back and forth,” doctors often say. They also recommend roller coasters and wild broncos, if you have access to some.
