Kim Kardashian: 2010 Kalendar Shoot

February 27th, 2009

Kim Kardashian loves posing for kalendars almost as much as she loves starring in sex tapes.

While it seems like only a couple months ago we published photos from Kim’s 2009 kalendar, the reality TV vixen has already jetted to Cabo San Lucas for her 2010 swimsuit edition.

As she says in her official blog:

I am sooo excited about it and I wanted to share with you guys a sneak peek of the behind the scenes footage!

Look at that bronzer in some of the shots! I love that sun-kissed glow.

We’re pretty sure she means fake-tan-kissed glow…

Jessica Simpson: Still Talentless, But Upbeat

February 27th, 2009

Looking remarkably skinny but still unable to carry a tune, Jessica Simpson continued her country music tour in Salt Lake City, Utah, Thursday night.

Fortunately for the star, she’s feeling upbeat.

“I’m so lucky to be here,” the 28-year-old told fans, adding that prayer had helped her sustain her confidence after she faced criticism for apparently packing on the pounds… which may have just been an illusion caused by mom jeans.

She also gushed about her beau, Tony Romo.

“The thing that makes us lucky is being in love…I did find that unexpected kind of love,” Simpson said, explaining that she developed a crush on Romo after her pimp Joe decided it would be a good fit for her watching him on ESPN.

Lucky in Love

No comment on whether Tony Romo railed some chick in her bed while she was on the road for one of these horrible concerts, as has been rumored.

The 45-minute set, at the EnergySolutions Arena, included hits “With You” and “Come on Over,” which Jessica Simpson forgot the words to - again.

“I always do that right there,” she said while laughing. “Sorry!”

What a hack. Simpson also spoke about a “complete butthead” ex - but declined to name names - before breaking into her song, “Remember That.”

Our guess? John Mayer. We would have chosen the word douchebag, however.

Britney Spears: "If U Seek Amy" Cover Art, Video

February 27th, 2009

Britney Spears has just released the art work for her risque new single, “If U Seek Amy.” The simple design, highlighting those gorgeous brown eyes of our girl, is a little ironic for a raunchy song that has plenty of parents up in arms.

Why is it controversial, you ask? Say the title 10 times fast. Preferably rather loudly, in a public place. You’ll figure it out then if you haven’t already.

This is not the real music video, mind you, just an old video for her song “Do Something” with the musical brilliance that is “If U Seek Amy” dubbed over it.

It actually syncs up pretty well! Guess that’s not a shock, as most Britney Spears songs sound similar, and her videos all involve her writhing suggestively …

AnnaLynne McCord: The Next Lisa Rinna?

February 27th, 2009

90210 actress AnnaLynne McCord was spotted leaving Bar Delux in Los Angeles last night.

At least we think it was AnnaLynne McCord.

Based on the fake tan, stretched face and seemingly robotic expression, the star resembles an eerie, younger version of Lisa Rinna. Compare for yourself:

Totally BustedRun from Rinna!

If this leads to McCord posing for Playboy, we have no objections.

The Bachelor Spoilers: Blame Melissa Rycroft’s Parents!

February 27th, 2009

Rumors that Jason Mesnick will choose Melissa Rycroft on next Monday’s The Bachelor season finale only to dump her during the “After the Final Rose” special in favor of runner-up Molly Malaney have sparked controversy among fans.

This Bachelor spoiler bombshell, courtesy of a reality TV blogger claiming to be in the know, is now giving way to a slightly different iteration.

Rather that hatching this elaborate scheme with ABC from the beginning to create the most possible drama - a charge host Chris Harrison vehemently denies - the new theory is that Jason simply changed his mind and swapped girls on his own.

According to message boards on Reality Steve’s blog - which first broke The Bachelor spoilers in question - a 67-year-old ex-ABC employee who knows people involved with the show claims Melissa’s actions resulted in Jason’s change of heart.

Melissa and Jason

Jason Mesnick’s “hometown date” with Melissa raised red flags.

The insider says Jason Mesnick proposes to Melissa Rycroft in New Zealand and she accepts. That much has been rumored since the first promo of the year.

However, according to this Bachelor insider, the trouble begins when they return to the hotel and she calls her folks to break the engagement news.

Melissa’s parents, of course, were conspicuously absent from the Bachelor hometown dates episode. Melissa said that they were private people not comfortable being on camera. Even stranger, none of Melissa’s friends had ever met them either.

It seems in addition to their private tendencies that kept them off the show, her parents were also not exactly keen on a match made on reality TV.

They were against Melissa Rycroft getting engaged, period.

Rumors has it that after this exchange, Melissa returned to Jason and told him she thinks they should slow things down and get to know each other better.

Supposedly, Jason Mesnick did not take this well and broke down crying. Could this be the scenario leading to the image of a devastated Jason in the promos?

Jason fell for both Melissa and Molly and made a choice based on who wanted to be with him more. Clearly, he was wrong and should have gone with Molly.

Then comes the infamous “After the Final Rose” special, where Jason describes how Melissa became more and more distant and gave off the impression that she never seriously wanted to see their relationship lead to marriage.

Feeling rejected, Jason calls up Molly and starts dating her.

Rumor has it all three key players in this Bachelor saga are on hand to hash out what went down - on a second “After the Final Rose” special filmed this week.

Ultimately, it is Melissa Rycroft who leaves the stage.

So, we now have two different versions of this giant Bachelor spoiler with the same basic outcome: Jason picks Melissa, but later ends up with Molly Malaney.

Does this spin on the season finale spoiler make things any better - and are you even buying it? Who do you think Jason should end up with?

Melissa Rycroft
Molly Malaney

Kendra Wilkinson to Procreate with Hank Baskett

February 27th, 2009

Kendra Wilkinson is ready to get nude for reasons other than money and attention.

The former Playboy Bunny told People Magazine that she and fiance Hank Baskett can’t wait to start a family.

“We always talk about [having kids],” Wilkinson said. “He wants kids so [badly], and I do, too.”

As for other tidbits Kendra revealed:

  • She’d name a boy Hank Baskett IV;
  • She will change her name to Kendra Baskett;
  • Her brother - not Hugh Hefner, as she once considered - will walk her down the aisle.

Wilkinson also reflected, fondly, on her days as a Girl Next Door:

“These five years of my life at the Playboy mansion just went by so fast. I’ve changed in positive ways. I think people were thinking I was going to take the wrong turn, go crazy, be a party girl and just go downhill. Instead, I’m settling down – but at the same time, I do want to still have fun!”
