Britney Spears Says Her Body Is Performance Ready for Her Confirmed Las Vegas Stint

A full-force Britney Spears comeback is in the midst judging by the cover of the most recent issue of Shape magazine, in which she happily flaunts her very toned bikini bod. She'll definitely need it for what she's about to do.
In the issue, Spears also confirmed that the rumors of a Las Vegas residency are in deed true. She's planning on hitting the Sin City stages starting this fall. But with two kids to juggle, X-Factor judging to wrap up, and a new will.i.am-produced album in the works, it definitely won't be a walk in the park, and is sure to be very physically demanding.
The performances won't be simple, she teased. They'll be a massive party from start to finish. And to pull this off, I have to be in top condition and running at full speed.
So, to get her body in tip-top shape, Spears is doing 90 minutes of yoga twice a week mixed in with cardio, and cutting back on cookies (which her son is not too happy about).

Lindsay Lohan: I Admit Everything, Will Go To Rehab For 180 Days

 So stated Lindsay Lohan this morning in a stunning turn of events, as the troubled star copped to being a total mess and vowed to turn things around. She also promised that she will check into rehab immediately and will not return to work (or whatever it is that she does) until early 2014 at the earliest.

I've been living a lie for too long," Lindsay said early Monday. "I've been spiraling out of control, even if I didn't know it at the time. I lost track of who I am."In an apparent shot at her family and management, she adds, "I've been surrounded by enablers instead of those who will guide me down the right path."Lohan said her mentality has been to "deny, deny, deny" when it comes to getting into trouble with the law, or when it comes to personal issues.That all stops now, she claims, and while we've heard it all before, never has she been more direct, or even acknowledged she has a problem at all."I've done many things I am not proud of," her statement continues. "I have not been forthcoming with the authorities, with my fans or with myself." I admit everything and ask that you forgive my mistakes. For so long, my approach has been to 'deny, deny, deny.' Today, I set out to change that.

After a period of self-reflection I could no longer look at myself in the mirror. It is time to finally take responsibility and seek treatment for my addiction." While Lindsay did not specify what that addiction entails, or confess to any specific crimes, the takeaway is clear: I admit everything. And I'm getting help. Her statement concludes: "As a result, I will be entering a 180-day in-patient treatment program effective immediately and will not return to work until next year at the earliest." I appreciate your well-wishes and hope that you will respect my privacy during this transitional period as I turn the page and become a better person." It's taken a long time, but THG would like to applaud Lindsay Lohan for finally seeing the light and doing whatever it takes to get her life back on track.

Taylor Swift Sued for Banking Canceled Concert Check

 

She is never, ever giving back our money.
So argue concert promoters for an August 2012 event titled "Capital Hoedown," as they have filed a lawsuit against Taylor Swift because the concert was canceled - but they allege Swift kept her check for $2.5 million anyway.
According to legal documents, Taylor received her huge payout up front. And with the ticket company having to refund $1.8 million worth in tickets, promoters want her to cover that cost.
Meaning, yes, she would still make a tidy $700,000 profit.

Emma Watson, 'I am bit OCD about being perfect - it's irritating

Emma Watson has admitted she really pushes herself to be a high achiever.

The hardworking Harry Potter, 22, star reckons she learn the trait from her mum and dad. 

My parents have very strong work ethics and have instilled that in me; a love and a respect for what you do and taking pride in it,' she says.

And then - and this is sort of irritating at times - I'm a bit OCD about perfectionism.

I'm my own worst critic. I always want to do better. I'm always striving towards the next thing.'

But the pretty actress believes that knuckling down at Brown University in New York - where she's thought to be reading English - offers some relief. 

I think having time to step away and study really, really helps. It  helps to give me perspective on things,' Emma tells Marie Claire magazine.

To be around people who are living their lives in different ways, who have different aspirations.

The Script's Danny O'Donoghue: I'm still single

Danny O'Donoghue says he used the heartbreak from the end of his last relationship to write single Six Degrees of Separation.

The singer for The Script, who was also a judge on The Voice, says: 'I split up with my long-term girlfriend and that happened to fall in the period where we were writing an album.

'I'm still single and I tend to fluctuate between being in a relationship, going out of one, being in a relationship, going out of one.'

Er, like most people then.

Danny, 32, admitted last month he no longer speaks to Bo Bruce, who he mentored on The Voice.

At the time of the show, Danny and Bo were linked after he split from model girlfriend Irma Mali, 28.

Shannen Doherty " I'M NOT PREGNANT, I Just Like Burgers

"90210" star Shannen Doherty HAS A BUN IN THE OVEN -- but it's not the baby kind ... it's the burger kind.

Rumors have been swirling today after a photo of Shannen emerged ... in which her stomach was a little more accentuated than usual.

But the actress says there's DEFINITELY NOT a baby in her belly ... just lunch.

She wrote, "I'm a size 2, not sporting a baby bump. That's simply the hamburger I wolfed down 2 minutes prior."

Shannen's little bundle of joy is expected to be delivered in the next couple of hours.

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart Spotted Cozying Up in L.A. Over the Weekend

Looks like those Robsten reunion rumors are definitely true!

Robert Pattinson, 26, and Kristen Stewart, 22, were spotted out and about in Los Angeles over the weekend looking like they were tentatively trying to get their relationship back on track.

On Saturday night, the recently reconciled Breaking Dawn Part 2 stars reportedly made an appearance at the Chateau Marmont to attend a friend's birthday bash. Witnesses tell Us Weekly that Pattinson and Stewart arrived together and were whispering to each other throughout the evening.

On Sunday night, the pair hit up Ye Rustic Inn in Los Feliz. ET Online has a grainy picture of Robsten standing close together at the bar, and the site promises to reveal exclusive footage and more photos of the superstar couple during Monday night's episode of ET.

Quietly dating since 2009, Pattinson and Stewart broke up over the summer in the wake of news that Stewart had engaged in a brief fling with her married Snow White and the Huntsman director, Rupert Sanders. Last week numerous sources reported that the couple had reconciled and was once again living together.

Pattinson and Stewart are scheduled to make their first red carpet appearance together since the break-up scandal later this month for the premiere of Breaking Dawn Part 2, which hits theaters on Nov. 16.

CUTE PICTURE Miley Cyrus posts photo of adopted new puppy on Twitter

The 19-year-old star introduced her new pet to the world yesterday by posting a snap of the adorable black and brown pooch on Twitter.

'He was left in a box Infront of Walmart. I don't understand how people can be so cruel. That's why we named him Happy,' wrote Miley.

And unsurprisingly, fans were eager to share their thoughts on the latest addition to the singer's family.

'Omg the cutest dog I have ever seen!!' commented one.

Miley's not the first star to rescue an animal - Selena Gomez ,19, and Justin Bieber, 18, decided to show their commitment to each other by taking in husky-mix Baylor earlier this year.

Happy 26th Birthday, Lady Gaga!

One of the most successful, buzzed-about singers in all of music turns 26 years young today. Happy birthday to Stefani Germanotta, a.k.a. Lady Gaga!

The only question is how the New York native will celebrate.

From urging fans to donate money to victims of the Japanese earthquake to using her star power to promote gay rights and denounce bullying, she's never been one to rest on her laurels - even during as self-imposed media blackout.

This year promises to be quieter for Gaga following 2011's release of her smash hit sophomore album Born This Way, but don't expect her to fade away.

Not by a long shot.

Love Lady Gaga or hate her, there's no debate over the impact this artist has had on the industry, and her immense popularity with fans is unquestioned.

Naked or clothed, with or without makeup, dressed like a slab of meat or a rumored hermaphrodite, we love us some Gaga. And we're clearly not alone.

Here's wishing her a happy 26th birthday, and hoping for much more entertainment in the years go come. Here are some favorite recent Lady Gaga pics:

Rihanna and Ashton Kutcher: Rumored One-Night Stand Alert!

On Tuesday around midnight, according to TMZ, Rihanna pulled up at Ashton Kutcher’s house. A blurry pic of Rih in her SUV (with her security detail) was posted online as the celebrity gossip site claimed she stayed at his bachelor pad until 4 a.m.

We can imagine that, whatever they were up to (and we're guessing it wasn't any sort of business collaboration) Ashton wouldn't be thrilled about the story.

But what's the harm, really? Did he threaten them to take the photos and/or the whole story down? And why would they comply if it was so obviously true?

TMZ of all sites is usually extremely accurate and willing to stand by its reporting. Shady, maybe, but not wrong, nor on the wrong side of the law. Weird.

In any case, that's what allegedly happened before the story got killed. And we can see it happening more easily than we can Johnny Depp and Ashley Olsen.

Tia Carrere Fired on Celebrity Apprentice

Following a task that didn't go as planned, Tia Carrere ended up being the latest casualty of Donald Trump's unforgiving boardroom cuts on Celebrity Apprentice.

On Sunday's episode, both teams were challenged to create a viral video for an O-Cedar mop. Obviously. The men, led by Lou Ferrigno, took a comical route.

The women, however, went with a double entendre "What's your number?" campaign.

While not overtly sexual, each woman, under the direction of Lisa Lampanelli and guidance of project manager Carrere, revealed how many mops they'd owned in their lives.

The men's idea mopped the floor with them and raised $50,000 for charity, leaving the ladies - Carrere, Lampanelli and Aubrey O'Day - fighting for survival.

When push came to shove, Carrere stepped up ... and fell on her own sword.

"Unfortunately I know as project manager, my head is on the chopping block," she told Trump, believing that someone else would go down with her.

Uma Thurman is pregnant -- who's the dad?

Congratulations to Uma Thurman! The Kill Bill actress is pregnant with her third child, her rep confirmed today, her first with someone other than her ex-husband Ethan Hawke. So who is her baby daddy, anyway?

Apparently ending their engagement in 2009 wasn't enough to keep this crazy couple apart, because the father is none other than her former fiance, financier Arpad Busson.

"Yes, Uma is pregnant!" a friend of Uma's told Life & Style before the rep's confirmation. "She hasn't announced it yet, but a lot of her friends were asking her because they could tell the difference when they saw her at New York Fashion Week. She's usually so skinny, but now she has the cutest little bump and a glow about her."

"She's excited," the insider shared. "She's happy and just a few months along right now. She's due in late, late summer."

Thurman and Busson, 49, started dating in 2007. They got engaged in June of 2008 but split in December 2009, reportedly over the strain of maintaining a long-distance relationship while balancing hectic work schedules.

While the pair is reportedly officially back together -- the pregnancy is not a result of sexual recycling -- there is no word that they have reinstated their engagement, yet.

Thurman's marriage to Hawke imploded amidst allegations he cheated with the couple's nanny, whom he later married and had two children with, daughters Clementine and Indiana. Uma and Hawke have two children together, Maya and Levon.

The Smash actress was previously married to Gary Oldman, with whom she had no kids.

Molly Sims shares excited pregnancy update

It's been just over a month since model Molly Sims found out that she and husband Scott Stuber are expecting their first child. She has invited fans to follow her pregnancy updates on her website, including today's update — she's now five months along!

"It's hard for even me to believe, but as of last week I'm officially five months pregnant," she posted on MollySims.com. "The baby just started kicking and at this point it's only a matter of weeks until life as I know it is going to completely change — and I can't wait!"

The Project Accessory reality show host started documenting her pregnancy progress with photo uploads last month. "I thought it would be fun to document my baby bump on the site each month, starting today," she first announced at four months pregnant. "That way all of you can see how far along I am, and I'll have all of the pictures to look back on once the little bun in the oven arrives."

And the soon-to-be parent is already reaping the rewards of her virtual scrapbook. "It's crazy to see the difference from just a month ago, isn't it?" she wrote earlier this morning.

Their honeymoon baby is due this June. "A first pregnancy is a nerve-wracking experience of course, but mostly we are just thrilled and excited," Sims said when announcing the pregnancy. "We can't wait to meet him or her."

Back together? Nicole Scherzinger and Lewis Hamilton snapped hand-in-hand

Nicole Scherzinger and Lewis Hamilton have been spotted holding hands in LA.

Pussycat Doll Nicole and Lewis split in October - reportedly because of his reluctance to settle down and have children - but it seems they're giving things another go.

Now recently revealed that Formula One ace Lewis was doing all he could to win back Nicole, 33, including sending her flowers and even love notes.

Lewis admitted in November that he was hopeful they could reconcile.  

'We still have very strong feelings for one another,' said Lewis, 26.

'I still love her very much. So, who knows? Maybe we will be together in the future.

Dancing On Ice's Heidi Range: Splitting with Dave Berry was horrible and I'm not over it

Dancing On Ice star Heidi Range is finding it hard to move on after splitting from her radio presenter fiancé Dave Berry.

The couple - who got engaged in 2009 - were together for 8 years and shocked even their closest friends when they announced their break-up in December.

'The end of last year was horrible,' says Heidi, 28.

'Splitting with Dave was horrible and I'm not over it.

'The show has been brilliant. It's given me confidence and I've got my groove back.'

Not going in One Direction - Caroline Flack expected break up with Harry Styles

Caroline Flack wasn't expecting her love affair with Harry Styles to last.

Harry, 17, has confirmed that their split is by mutual agreement - and Caroline, 32, has always been realistic about the relationship, which started in October.

She received death threats and hate mail over their 15-year age gap, prompting her to ask Harry for space while she went to Goa at Christmas.

‘She confided that she doesn't think they'll last beyond the summer,' an insider revealed to Now last week.

'But she's just trying to enjoy herself. She does care deeply for him - he makes her laugh.'

It's claimed the One Direction star, 17, thought his romance with Caroline was getting too serious, but Harry insists this wasn't so.

Little Mix's Leigh-Anne Pinnock thinks Prince Harry is called Barry

Leigh-Anne Pinnock has no idea who Prince Harry is.

Since her X Factor win as one-quarter of Little Mix, Leigh-Anne has been hitting popular celebrity club Mahiki - a favourite with

Wills' little brother.

'We had our own VIP room section,' says Leigh-Anne, 19.

'We had like a bed in it and a shower, it was just crazy but I think it's the same room that Prince Barry or someone had, is it

Prince Barry?

'Who's the one that goes clubbing?'

Though Leigh-Anne's not familiar with the handsome Prince, she's more clued up about top US singers - like Rihanna, who performed

on last year's series of The X Factor.

'She walked past, did a double take and said, "Your hair is awesome",' Leigh-Anne tells The Mirror.

'I just froze. I couldn't believe she noticed me.'

Nicola McLean: Kerry Katona says she's broke but she lives in a mansion with a swimming pool

Nicola McLean has little sympathy for old pal Kerry Katona.

The glamour model was regularly snapped with Kerry last year, but she's admitted they only hung out together because they shared the same management at the time.

'She has a good heart but would she be my best friend? No,' says Nicola, 30.

Celebrity Big Brother contestant Nicola thinks Kerry, 31, has landed on her feet after getting seriously in debt, a drug battle and her stormy marriage to ex-husband Mark Croft, 40.

'People say, "Poor Kerry, she's bankrupt!" Hold on, poor Kerry is living in a mansion with a swimming pool!' says Nicola.

'That's more than I'm living in.

'She says she's got no money but she needs to go and speak to the homeless man on the corner.

'She is still doing magazine shoots in Lapland with her kids. She doesn't have a bad life.' 

Katy Perry and Russell Brand "Just Too Different," Friends Say

Katy Perry's divorce from Russell Brand wasn't due to a particular event or issue. The pair simply got married too fast and are too different, sources say.

They were infatuated with each other when they wed in October 2010, but had only been together about a year at that point, and things went south fast.

People close to the couple say Katy and Russell were head over heels for each other, fascinated to be with a great person who was an extreme opposite.

The problems came when the honeymoon phase wore off.

After they got married, they fought constantly, often in front of people at clubs and shows. They're both stubborn and strong-willed, making things worse.

Their busy schedules didn't help, as they never spent long periods of time with each other. In the end, despite their attraction, they were "just too different."

Brand, who filed for divorce Friday, is more of a homebody than Katy, 27, who loves going out partying. Russell, 36, has been sober for years and didn't enjoy the scene.

He would often voice his desire to stay in or leave places early, asking her to come with him, which would trigger arguments. So it went. Not a long-term match.

At the end of the day, neither hates the other, there's no bad blood, and not even a hint of impropriety on either part. Just a mutual parting of ways.

Sad, but something a lot of people, famous or not, can relate to.
