  • Jenelle Evans of ‘Teen Mom 2’ Apologizes For Her Shocking Death Wish on a Veteran

    Jenelle Evans, of Teen Mom 2, has apologized after she shockingly wished death upon a veteran.

    According to Inquisitr, a shocking video hit the internet earlier this week of Jenelle Evans screaming at her fiancé’s brother, a veteran who accompanied the couple on their recent trip to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands.

    Inquisitr released the following comments from Jenelle Evans’ tirade:

    “I hope [sic] you would have died in combat.”

    “I hope you f***ing die.”

    “I heard your best friend got killed in the war.”

    Jenelle Evans responded to a storm of Twitter backlash after the video made the rounds by saying there are “two sides to every story.”

    Jenelle Evans’ half-hearted explanation did little to appease offended fans, and the bashing continued on social media.

    In response to the continued hate-posts on social media, Jenelle Evans decided to offer a second apology to her future brother-in-law.

    “Jenelle told Nathan’s brother she was sorry and shouldn’t have said those things,” a friend of Evans told Radar Online Friday. “Nathan’s brother has also said sorry to Jenelle.”

    It is not known what Jenelle Evans said to her future brother-in-law, and the reality star is reportedly hoping the negative attention will soon die down.

    “She is just trying to move forward and wait for the hate on social media to end,” said the friend.

    In Friday’s interview with Radar Online, the friend tried to explain how Jenelle Evans‘ horrible comments about her fiancé’s brother came about.

    “They charged all of their drinks to Jenelle’s card. It was a $500.00 tab. And Jenelle paid for the engagement dinner they all went out to. It was $600.00 and no one gave her or her fiancé money towards it. Jenelle and Nathan also paid for all the taxi rides during the trip. Jenelle asked the hotel if they could put a stop on her card. They said they couldn’t, because if you had a hotel room key, you could charge whatever you want.”

  • Miranda Lambert Ditches Signature Platinum Blond Hair Before ‘Certified Platinum Tour’ … What?

    Miranda Lambert will kick off her Certified Platinum Tour in Evansville, Indiana, on Thursday, but she shocked fans Tuesday by surprising fans in Nashville with a popup concert and a new hair color that is anything but platinum.

    Miranda Lambert treated about 80 fans with a concert with only a few hours notice sent out earlier in the day.

    According to The Tennessean newspaper, Miranda Lambert told the assembled crowd that she and her band “were just ready to play for some people” when they took the stage just three hours after making the announcement.

    However, when Miranda Lambert took to the small stage, few noticed her sexy leather short-shorts over sheer tights and a skimpy T-shirt with Nashville written across the the front. Oh no. All eyes were on Miranda Lambert’s darker hair.

    The ashy-brown hair completely changes Miranda Lambert’s look and is an ironic twist just before the launch of her tour.

    The blond superstar went full-on platinum last summer. Miranda Lambert said the look was inspired by Marilyn Monroe.

    “Who wouldnt want to look like Marilyn Monroe? With the album being [called] Platinum I got lighter in my hair because I wanted to pay homage to the title of the record,” she said in July.

    Miranda Lambert’s tour will also feature Justin Moore, RaeLynn, Sunny Sweeney, Ashley Monroe and Danielle Bradbery.

  • Tara Reid Tweets Her Excitement After She and Ian Ziering Sign On For ‘Sharknado 3’ — ‘WooHoo’

    Tara Reid and Ian Ziering will once again take on those pesky sharks when Sharknado 3 hits the small screen in July.

    Reid, 39, and Ziering, 50, will reprise their roles for the Syfy film as April Wexler and Fin Shepard, the on-again-off-again married couple who somehow manage to save the world from sharks that get caught up in crazy weather and wreck havoc on humanity.

    Syfy confimed the sequel at the 2015 Television Critics Association winter press tour Thursday and said the third installment will begin in Washington, D.C., and “will cause mass destruction in the nation’s capital then roar down the Eastern Seaboard.”

    The first Sharknado film, set in Los Angeles, became an Internet sensation in July 2013. Sharknado 2: The Second One followed in July 2014 and was set in New York.

    According to Syfy, the sequel became the most watched original movie the network had ever aired, bringing in 3.9 million viewers in a single sitting. Needless to say, the third film installment was ordered even before the second premiered.

    Reid took to Twitter Thursday afternoon to announce the film and share her excitement.

    Thunder Levin, the genius behind Sharknado, also tweeted about the announcement.

    Reid said last year in an interview for GQ that a Sharknado could legitimately happen in real life.

    “You know, it actually can happen,” she told the magazine in July. “I mean, the chances of it happening are very rare, but it can happen actually. Which is crazy. Not that it—the chances of it are, like, you know, it’s like probably ‘pigs could fly.’ Like, I don’t think pigs could fly, but actually sharks could be stuck in tornados. There could be a sharknado.”

  • Ellen DeGeneres Puts ‘Gay Agenda’ Writer In His Place — ‘I’m Not Here to Brainwash Anyone’

    Ellen DeGeneres took a moment during her monologue on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Wednesday to respond to a recent column that bashed the talk show host’s apparent “agenda” to brainwash the world.

    DeGeneres spoke for many when she addressed a column published by the Christian Post, accusing Hollywood of pushing a gay agenda. In the article titled, “Are You Aware of the Avalanche of Gay Programming Assaulting Your Home?” pastor and author Larry Tomczak wrote that DeGeneres “celebrates her lesbianism and ‘marriage’ in between appearances of guests like Taylor Swift to attract young girls.”

    DeGeneres, who married Scandal actress Portia de Rossi in 2008, used her trademark humor to offset the biting comments by Tomczak.

    “First of all, let’s just break this down, I’m not ‘married,’ (as she made the quote marks hand gesture), I’m married. That’s all,” said DeGeneres.

    “And Larry, I don’t even know what it means to celebrate my lesbianism. I mean, I guess I do – it’s like that,” she said as she pulled out party popper from her blazer and sett it off. “I’m gay!”

    DeGeneres then offered some encouragement to the youth of the world in typical Ellen-fashion.

    “The only way I’m trying to influence people is to be more kind and compassionate with one another. That is the message I’m sending out. I don’t have an agenda. I’m not here to brainwash anyone. But…”

    Her stage manager then handed her a spinning vortex and she held it up to the camera, saying in a hypnotizying voice, “Listen to the sound of my voice. Attention youth of the world: I want you to live your lives being exactly who you are. Be true to yourself — the most important thing is to be true to yourself. The second most important thing is that you wear Ellen underwear and only Ellen underwear.”

  • Jenelle Evans of ‘Teen Mom 2’ Rocks a Bikini in the Caribbean, Flaunting Her Tatted-Up, Post-Baby Body

    Jenelle Evans rocked a bikini during a recent vacation to the Caribbean, flaunting her tatted-up, post-baby body, and the Teen Mom 2 reality star looks fabulous just six months after giving birth to her second child, little baby Kaiser.

    Evans posted several pics from the beach of St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, on Twitter and Instagram, wearing a skimpy bikini and a big ‘ole smile on her happy face, which may have something to do with the marriage proposal she received from Nathan Griffith during their romantic getaway.

    In one posted pic, the 23-year-old reality star poses with her fiance, whom she referred to in the caption as her “best friend,” adding that the two were “tan and loving every minute of it.”

    Facebook chatter indicates that a film crew was on hand during their tropical getaway to film some scenes for Teen Mom 2. The scenes will reportedly be featured on the MTV show in a future episode. In fact, some critics say MTV may have paid for the entire vacation, especially since the two often seem to struggle with money.

    Lifeguard stand!

    The couple’s return trip to the states wasn’t quite as smooth as hoped and Evans couldn’t resist tweeting her frustration.

    “Never fly Spirit again, another horrible experience!!!! Spirit always makes sure to lie to customers to keep them calm. Wow, can’t believe I’m still not home. Spirit gives me NO spirit,” she tweeted in frustration.

    Of course, there’s nothing quite like coming home to baby Kaiser and Evans was quick to post a pic of the mommy/baby reunion.

    He loves my kisses.

  • Anna Kendrick Talks About Ryan Gosling Sexual Tweet and Candid Social Media Presence — ‘I Don’t Give a (F-Bomb)’

    Anna Kendrick is fearless (and hilarious) when speaking her mind and could care less what others may think of her candid presence on social media.

    In an interview with with Nylon magazine for its February edition, the actress said she doesn’t give a thought to whether her posts could be seen as offensive.

    “I don’t give a f***. Twitter is only 140 characters. There’s really not that much that I could reveal, then regret later,” she told the magazine.

    An example of her honestty — as well as her unique sense of humor — is a tweet she posted two years ago about Ryan Gosling, which has been retweeted over 36,000 times.

    “Ugh – NEVER going to a Ryan Gosling movie in a theater again. Apparently masturbating in the back row is still considered ‘inappropriate,’” the Into the Woods actress tweeted.

    When Nylon asked her about the tweet, she said, “Thank God I’ve never been in a room with him!”

    She reflects on that idea for a moment before adding: “I don’t feel embarrassed, though. I’m sure he has a sense of humor. But I’d probably feel like I’d have to address [the tweet], and I’d end up saying something to make it much, much worse.”

    Kendrick’s BFF, Aubrey Plaza, told the magazine that the 29-year-old actress is “the weirdest combo of impulsive tequila-drinking party girl and 80-year-old senator’s wife from Vermont.”

    “She loves Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones, can rap ‘99 Problems’ from start to finish, scarfs down burgers in six-inch Louboutins, while beating you at Assassin’s Creed. But guys are probably afraid to hit on her because she’s intimidating,” said Plaza.

    Here are a few of her latest (hilarious) and greatest tweets:

  • Bruce Jenner’s Fake ‘InTouch’ Cover Photo Enrages Transgender Community and Kris Jenner — ‘It’s Just Mean’

    A photoshopped image gracing the cover of InTouch Weekly magazine of Bruce Jenner looking eerily like 67-year-old Dynasty star Stephanie Beacham, has enraged the transgender community as well as his ex, Kris Jenner.

    The completely fabricated cover and story, with the headline Bruce’s Story: My Life As a Woman, features the photo of what Bruce would look like as a woman, complete with makeup, hair and apparently Beacham’s body.

    According to Page Six, Bruce’s head was photoshopped onto the body of Beacham from a Getty Images photo that was originally shot at a BARREtoned Studio launch party in London in 2013.

    According to the InTouch article, sources revealed “what Bruce wants to look like when his transformation is complete, and their inside knowledge was used for our photo recreation.”

    The article also claims Bruce will come out as a transgender woman in 2015, and he’ll do it on the cover of the LGBT magazine, The Advocate. Hollywood Life reported that an inside source at The Advocate said the magazine “would love to cover the story. However, according to Inquisitr, The Advocate denies the report.

    Matthew Breen, editor in chief of The Advocate, issued a response to the apparently fabricated article.

    “I’m astounded that Bonnie Fuller’s Hollywood Life would claim to have ‘all the details’ on Bruce Jenner’s ‘big magazine plans’ because their story is a total fabrication — like InTouch‘s distressing Photoshopped cover,” said Breen. “Neither publication has any insider source with knowledge of The Advocate‘s planned coverage.”

    Others in the transgender community are just as distressed at the magazine’s choice to publish the photo and article.

    Mara Keisling, executive director of the National Center for Transgender Equality, voiced her disgust in an editorial for The Advocate.

    “That anybody is still trying to ‘shock’ people about transgender people is really sad,” she said.

    “Damn it,” Bernstein wrote in all-caps. “Bruce Jenner is being bullied, and publicly shamed for no other reason than being trans. I’m so sorry for B.J.”

    Gigi Gorgeous, the YouTube sensation and a transgender woman, couldn’t agree more.

    “It’s always sad to see the media alter images of someone in the public eye,” Gorgeous told The Advocate via email. “Until Bruce chooses to share his story — whatever it is — it’s no one’s business. Being transgender is not a joke or something to poke fun at.”

    TMZ reports that Kris Jenner is telling friends that “it’s just mean to do, whether or not it’s true.”

  • Kristin Chenoweth Subtly Disses Ex-Boyfriend Dana Brunetti on Twitter and He Tweets Back

    Kristin Chenoweth made a subtle diss Sunday against her ex-boyfriend Dana Brunetti on Twitter, and he just couldn’t resist the urge to respond to her tweet.

    The 46-year-old actress tweeted her satisfaction that the Showtime series The Affair and star Ruth Wilson beat out HBO’s House of Cards — the show Brunetti produces — for Best Drama at the 2014 Golden Globe Awards.

    “So happy The Affair won tonight. #deserving love Ruth Wilson xo,” tweeted the The Opposite Sex actress.

    Brunetti quickly understood her little passive-aggressive barb and retweeted her message, adding a simple word that says so much.

    “Ha,” he added to the retweet.

    Chenoweth and Brunetti broke up in November after dating for a year, and It must have stung a bit for the 46-year-old Wicked actress when her ex showed up on the Golden Globes red carpet with his reported new girl, 28-year-old Arrow actress Katie Cassidy.

    “Katie is really falling hard for Dana and the feeling is mutual,” a source told E! Online. “She hasn’t felt this way about a man in some time. He just gets her and their time together is always filled with laughter. They’ve been friends for a long time before they got intimate and that’s the main reason why it’s working out so well.”

    Meanwhile, Chenoweth has been busy preparing for some upcoming films, including The Boy Next Door with Jennifer Lopez and Hard Sell with Skyler Gisondo.

  • Giuliana Rancic Remembers the Late Joan Rivers in Blog Post — ‘I Miss Her Dearly’

    Giuliana Rancic updated her website recently and in her first post, titled “For Joan,” she dedicated the site to her late Fashion Police co-host and dear friend Joan Rivers, who died unexpectedly in September at age 81 after a routine throat procedure.

    “I am so, so, so humbled by all of the support for the return of Fashion Police tonight on E!” wrote Rancic in the message posted on Sunday. “We have a fresh, new show in store for you guys with a completely transformed set, new segments and of course, the addition of Brad Goreski and Kathy Griffin who will be joining Kelly [Osbourne] and I.

    “The four of us have never worked together before, but we have been having a blast at our photo shoots over the past few weeks,” Rancic wrote. “I know we are going to have the best time on the show together. What it comes down to is that we all love to laugh and have fun with fashion, the perfect recipe for the new Fashion Police.”

    Tonight's the night! Tune in to an all new @fashionpolice at 9/8c on E!!!

    She briefly praised Rivers’ daughter, Melissa Rivers, who is the executive producer of the show.

    “It has been a difficult transition the past few months without our Joan, but we all know that she would want the show to go on,” Rancic noted. “We have her incredible daughter, Melissa, back as our Executive Producer and she will always be the link back to Joan. We will always think of her on set and we know that she will be watching over and laughing alongside us.”

    The 40-year-old reality star thanked loyal fans for their “sweet words and messages” after Rivers’ death.

    “I miss her dearly and think of her all the time,” Rancic concluded. “I am proud to continue on this show that she made so wonderful and special and I hope we make her proud in our premiere episode.”

  • Jennifer Lawrence and Eddie Redmayne Share an Obsession For ‘The Real Housewives’

    Jennifer Lawrence and Eddie Redmayne discovered recently during a chat for Interview magazine that they share an obsession for reality TV, in particular, The Real Housewives of … well, anywhere.

    “I come home from trying to pretend to know about astronomy and physics all day and turn on ‘The Real Housewives,’” Redmayne told Lawrence of his way of chilling out after he filmed scenes for his acclaimed film The Theory of Everything.

    Well, that fired up Lawrence, who is a self-proclaimed Real Housewives fanatic.

    “Oh my God,” exclaimed the 24-year-old Oscar-winning actress, after hearing his confession. “You watch Real Housewives, Eddie?”

    “I’ve been a closet lover of faux-reality TV since The Hills,” Redmayne affirmed.

    “I feel like I’m going to cry. We’re making a breakthrough. I went to Pump the other night to meet Lisa Vanderpump [who stars on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills]. I had her sign a bottle of vodka, and when she gave it to my friend who was with me at the Oscars, my friend said, ‘Jennifer, this is so much better than the Oscars!’” Lawrence added. “We took so many pictures with her.”

    Lawrence continued to gush over her love of reality TV, saying she becomes quickly “bored” with movies because she can’t deal with anything that is not real.

    Does anyone out there want to be the one to clue her in that reality shows are sometimes not all that real either?

    “I go back to The Hills,” Redmayne said. “Occasionally Audrina [Patridge] or Whitney [Port] will be on a website that I shouldn’t be looking at, and I’m like, ‘You know, I just want to check that they’re doing all right, because it’s my youth.’ And the depressing thing is that it’s not my youth. I was too old to be watching those programs when I was watching them.”

    Lawrence admitted that, at times, the shows enthrall her to the point that she will call off her own real life.

    “MTV sometimes plays them for, like, three hours, and that will just turn into my morning. Like, I’ll cancel sh**,” she said.

  • Patricia Driscoll Denies Accusations of Being a Trained Assassin by Her Ex, NASCAR driver Kurt Busch

    Patricia Driscoll, former girlfriend of NASCAR driver Kurt Busch and president of the Armed Forces Foundation, denies accusations by the driver known as “The Outlaw” of being a trained assassin.

    In a court appearance Tuesday, Busch said he believes his ex-girlfriend is a trained killer who has completed numerous covert missions around the world. He also said she once returned home in a blood-splattered gown.

    “Everybody on the outside can tell me I’m crazy, but I lived on the inside and saw it firsthand,” Busch said in testimony.

    Driscoll, an author, philanthropist and executive producer of the military documentary The Which I Love Destroys Me, called Busch’s accusation “ludicrous,” adding that she believes he came up with the idea “straight from a fictional movie script” she has been working on for the past eight years.

    The former couple have continuously exchanged accusations with the intention of discrediting the other in court proceedings over a no-contact order requested by Driscoll.

    Busch contends she is a scorned woman out to destroy his career following a breakup, and she asserts that he assaulted her, slamming her head three times against a bedroom wall of his motorhome at Dover International Speedway on Sept. 26

    In court, Busch never faltered in his assertion that she was an assassin, claiming that she had missions in Central and South America and Africa. He said she showed him pictures of bodies with gunshot wounds that she said was her doing and claimed that a female character in Zero Dark Thirty was based, in part, on her.

    Last month, a personal assistant to Busch and Driscoll, Michael Doncheff, also claimed that Driscoll told him that she was a trained assassin for the U.S. government, reportedly telling him, “I take down foreign governments. I own Washington.”

    Driscoll told The Associated Press late Tuesday that Busch’s accusations are ridiculous.

    “These statements made about being a trained assassin, hired killer, are ludicrous and without basis and are an attempt to destroy my credibility,” Driscoll said. “Not even Rusty Hardin believes this.”

    “I find it interesting that some of the outlandish claims come straight from a fictional movie script I’ve been working on for eight years,” she added.

  • Jenna Dewan-Tatum and Hubby Channing Tatum Show Off Their ‘Step Up’ Dance Moves at ‘Golden Globes’ After Party

    Jenna Dewan-Tatum and hubby Channing Tatum brought out their best Step Up moves while attending The Weinstein Company & Netflix’s 2015 Golden Globes After Party on Sunday.

    The couple, who met on the set of the 2006 dance movie, proved they still have the moves and the chemistry that made them household names when they took to the dance floor Sunday to let loose from their daily grind as new parents to one-year-old daughter Everly.

    The 34-year-old Jupiter Ascending actor wowed other A-list celebrities as he tore up the dance floor with his beautiful wife at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

    Not only did they wow onlookers with their moves, they looked gorgeous as well. The Magic Mike stud looked incredibly handsome in a black Dolce & Gabbana tuxedo, while the Witches of East End star glowed in a beautiful pale yellow strapless Carolina Herrera dress sporting a long train.

    Channing participated in the awards’ show by introducing the movie Foxcatcher, in which he appears. The film was nominated for Best Drama, Best Actor in a Drama for Steve Carell, and Best Supporting Actor for Mark Ruffalo.

    Channing proposed to his bride in September 2008, they were married in July 2009 and little Everly made her arrival in May 2013.

    The Tatums love to go out and release a little steam from time to time. Channing told The Examiner in 2012 that he and his wife don’t just sit around the house, but prefer to get out and boogey.

    “I believe in love,” he said. “I believe in good stories. I play really hard on the weekends because I like to have those stories. My wife and I go off and do craziness all the time. We’re just like, ‘What can we go get into this weekend?’”

  • Jodi Arias’ Closed-Door Testimony Reveals She Struggled to Admit to Herself She Killed Her Boyfriend

    Jodi Arias told a jury behind closed doors that she struggled for two years to admit to herself that she killed her boyfriend.

    The closed-door testimony was released on Tuesday and has revealed few new details about the night she killed her former boyfriend, nor any reasons why she was allowed to speak to the jury in secret in the first place.

    After news organizations protested a judge’s decision to bar the public from the courtroom during a mystery witness’ testimony, an appeals court judge threw out the judge’s decision and the documents were released on Tuesday.

    Dwane Cates, a criminal defense attorney not involved in the Arias case, told the Associated Press he believes the courtroom was likely closed to settle down the media circus surrounding the trial and said he doubted the request was granted on Arias’ behalf.

    “It had to do a lot with I think everybody wanted it closed,” Cates said.

    Arias was convicted last year in the 2008 murder of Travis Alexander, after she attacked her boyfriend in a jealous rage when he attempted to end the relationship. Arias admitted to killing Alexander, but claimed it was self-defense.

    Unable to agree on a sentence, the jury was dismissed and a new jury has been hearing testimony since mid-October over whether she should be sentenced to life in prison or receive the death penalty.

    During the secret testimony, Arias, who said she was raised by physically abusive parents, provided details about the early days of her relationship with Alexander, which included testimony about how religion played a part in their relationship, as well as their first sexual encounters.

    She also said she regretted the pain her actions caused Alexander’s family.

    “I wish so badly that I could just take that away from them, and that I could reverse what I did,” Arias said.

    The sentencing retrial is scheduled to resume Wednesday.

  • Bob Newhart: Social Media Has Fun With His College Football Ref Doppelgänger

    Bob Newhart was the center of some fun social media attention Monday, when football fans noticed that the head referee for the first ever College Football Playoff national championship football game between the Ohio State University and the University of Oregon had a striking resemblance to the legendary comedian.

    Referee Greg Burks, who usually refs for Big 12 games, really does look like Newhart and perhaps that was a blessing, since the ref received little attention for blown calls and much attention for striking resemblance to his Elf doppelgänger.

    The Buckeyes went on to beat the Ducks, 42-20, becoming the first official national championship winners.

    Even PGA pro-golfer John Daly got in on the comparisons:

    #BobNewhart trended on Twitter Monday night, leading the man himself to chime in on Twitter, and he didn’t necessarily deny that it was him.

  • Juliette Binoche Braves Sub-Zero Arctic Temps to Film ‘Nobody Wants the Night’

    Juliette Binoche braved miserable Arctic conditions to star as Josephine Peary in Nobody Wants the Night, which documents the story of one determined woman trying to find her missing husband at the North Pole.

    The absolute misery of living through the freezing conditions is apparent in a behind the scenes video recently released.

    Peary is joined on the life or death adventure by veteran arctic explorer Bram Trevor, played by Gabriel Byrne, who tries to dissuade her from going to the icy lands by showing her his hands damaged beyond recognition from frost bite, along with words of warning about the the dangers of the North.

    Tensions mount between Peary and Inuit Allaka, played by Rinko Kikuchi, when Peary tries to “civilize” the native-Greenlander instead of learning from the woman’s extensive knowledge on how to survive sub-zero temperatures.

    Kikuchi is best-known for her role in Alejandro Inarritu’s 2006 Golden Globe-winning ensemble piece Babel and in Pacific Rim by Guillermo del Toro.

    Byrne, a familiar face to movie-goers, is best-known for his role in The Usual Suspects.

    The 50-year-old French actress was most recently seen in Godzilla , but also received much acclaim and an Academy Award, for her turn in The English Patient . Her other films include The Unbearable Lightness of Being and Chocolat.

    Nobody Wants the Night was chosen to open this year’s 65th annual Berlin International Film Festival, which runs February 5-15.

    “I’m very pleased that Nobody Wants the Night will open the 2015 Berlinale,” said festival director Dieter Kosslick in a statement. “Isabel Coixet has created an impressive and perceptive portrait of two women in extreme circumstances.”

  • George Clooney’s Touching Tribute to Wife Amal Clooney at the Golden Globes Puts Men Everywhere to Shame

    Women around the world swooned at George Clooney’s remarks for his new bride, Amal Clooney, while accepting his Lifetime Achievement Award at the 72nd Golden Globes ceremony Sunday.

    “I had a pretty good year myself and I’m not just referring to the fabulous reviews of The Monuments Men,” said Clooney. “It’s a humbling thing when you find someone to love. Even better when you’ve been waiting your whole life… Amal, whatever alchemy brought us together, I couldn’t be prouder to be your husband.”

    Clooney accepted the award from Julianna Margulies and Don Cheadle in the tuxedo he wore for his wedding to the international human rights attorney.

    In a hilarious moment among many, hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, commented on the famous couple’s wedding during their opening bit, highlighting Amal’s accomplishments and Clooney’s award.

    “Amal is a human-rights lawyer who worked on the Enron case, an advisor to Kofi Annan regarding Syria and was selected for a three-person UN commission investigating rules-of-war violations in the Gaza Strip. So tonight, her husband is getting a lifetime achievement award,” said Fey.

    Clooney, 53, has been nominated for a Golden Globe 13 times and has won three other Golden Globes – for his work in 2000’s O Brother, Where Art Thou?, 2005’s Syriana and 2011’s The Descendants.

  • Lena Dunham ‘Deletes Her Twitter Account’… (Sort Of) … Saying She Wants a ‘Safer Space For Myself Emotionally’

    Lena Dunham said she has deleted her Twitter account, citing her emotional stability as the reason for the break from social media.

    The break didn’t last long.

    According to the New York Post, the Girls star told multiple media sources on the Golden Globes red carpet Sunday that she deleted her Twitter account.

    “I deleted Twitter because I wanted to create a safer space for myself emotionally,” the actress told E!. “People threaten my life and tell me what a cow I am.”

    Although her account is still active, Dunham she will “check it occasionally” but it’s “not the same co-dependence” that it used to be for her.

    “People threaten my life and tell me what a cow I am,” she said of comments posted to her account.

    Only time will tell if she means what she said. She tweeted just a few hours before the Golden Globes red carpet to promote the Sunday night season premiere of Girls.

    On Monday, she made this clarification about deleting her Twitter account.

    And this:

    Jennifer Hudson will make her Broadway debut this fall, starring in the Oprah Winfrey-backed revival of The Color Purple.

    This will be the Grammy, Oscar and Golden Globe-winner’s first foray in a Broadway production.

    The Dreamgirls actress will take on the role of Shug Avery, a sultry blues singer, in the musical.

    According to the New York Post, Winfrey reached out to Hudson personally to invite her to join the cast.

  • Is Beyoncé Pregnant? Instagram Post Fuels Speculation

    Beyoncé Knowles has people wondering once again if the singer and hubby Jay Z are expecting a sibling for their three-year-old daughter Blue Ivy.

    Pregnancy rumors surfaced after the Drunk In Love singer posted a photograph Sunday on Instagram of herself lying on an Asian beach covered in sand. The sand is shaped in such a way that suggests she is sporting a rather large baby bump under the sand.

    This latest pregnancy clue ties into other rumors that have surrounded the 33-year-old singer and her Empire State of Mind husband over the past few weeks, even months.

    In September, Jay Z reportedly changed some lyrics in Beach is Better at a concert in Paris to “cause she’s pregnant with another one.”

    A source for RadarOnline said the doting husband’s behavior has changed recently, becoming even more protective than usual.

    ”For the last month, Jay has been fiercely protective of her, just like when she was expecting Blue Ivy.

    ”He’s been doing everything he can to ensure that Bey is in a stress-free bubble.”

    It wouldn’t be surprising, really, if the superstar is pregnant. She has said she wants to have a sibling for her little girl.

    ”[Motherhood] gives you purpose. I realized why I was born and, more than anything, all of the things I want to pass onto my child and the best way of doing that is not by preaching or telling her but showing her by example,” she told RadarOnline.

  • Jane Fonda’s Beau Passed Out At Golden Globes? False Alarm, Folks

    Jane Fonda denies claims that her partner, Richard Perry, passed out at last night’s Golden Globes Awards, despite reports.

    The Beverly Hills Police Department did confirm that paramedics were called to the awards’ show. However, the call was apparently canceled before the first responders arrived on the scene.

    Initial reports claimed that it was the 77-year-old actress’ boyfriend who needed the aid of paramedics. However, a rep for Fonda said it was someone sitting at a table near the couple.

    According to reports, the heat in the Beverly Hilton Hotel, where the 72nd Golden Glove Awards were held, was unbearable, which was likely a factor in the mystery person’s illness.

    Theo Kingma, president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which presents the ceremony, said the man had been sitting under bright lights, making him hot.

    According to Vanity Fair , the air conditioning at the hotel wasn’t on or wasn’t working, sending temperatures in the hall soaring. Matthew McConaughey reportedly chose to remove his jacket as he watched proceedings and female stars were seen fanning themselves as their makeup melted in the heat.

  • Paris Hilton Is Reportedly Seeking Full-Time Nanny For Her New $12,500 Fur Baby

    Paris Hilton, who is already mama to eight fur babies, is finding that caring for her literal brood is taking time away from her very busy life as an heiress.

    With the acquisition of her latest little one — a reported $12,500 micro-mini teacup Pomeranian — the really, really, really rich socialite is considering hiring a full-time nanny for her pup.

    Hilton is reported to have bought the tiny puppy, and another one for her mother, on Tuesday for $25,000 and couldn’t wait to show the little one off with all its new micro-teacup outfits. So, she brought the little dog to Kari Feinstein’s Golden Globes Style Lounge at the the Andaz in West Hollywood to share her joy with others.

    One source maintained that Hilton was joking. However, another said she was dead serious about getting some help.

    “She is thinking about getting the dog its own nanny. It’s so small she needs someone to feed it as if it were a newborn baby.”
