Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony Set To Make NYC Muy Caliente!


This week Marc Anthony is set to perform a free concert for NBC's Today Show in NYC.

Then this weekend, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are scheduled to appear on the red carpet at the NYC premiere of their latest joint effort, the film El Cantante. The film tells the story of the late Puerto Rican salsa singer Hector Lavoe and his wife, Puchi, played by Marc and La Lopez. The film premiered in Puerto Rico last night and Lopez and Anthony looked fabulous on the red carpet, greeted by screaming fans.

Exciting!

"Rehab" by Rihanna


No, it's not the latest celebrity in trouble...it's "Rehab" a hot (possibly THE hottest) track from Rihanna's latest (and in my opinion, the best) album Good Girl Gone Bad.


The song was written by Justin Timberlake (who also provided background vocals) and the beat was layed down by Timbaland.


Quite a fitting song given the recent current events...maybe certain celebrities should take a listen.


RIHANNA
"Rehab"(feat. Justin Timberlake, Timbaland)


Baby, baby
When we first met
I never felt something so strong
You were like my lover
And my best friend
All wrapped into one
With a ribbon on it
And all of a sudden
When you left
I didn't know how to follow
It's like a shot
That spun me around
And now my heart left
I feel so empty and hollow


And I'll never give myself to another
The way I gave it to you
Don't even recognize
The ways you hit me do you?
It's gonna take a miracle to bring me back
And you're the one to blame
And now I feel like, oh
You're the reason why I'm thinking
I don't wanna smoke on these cigarettes no more
I guess that's what I get for wishful thinking
Should've never let you into my door
Next time you want to go on and leave
I should just let you go on and do it
'Cause now I'm using like I bleed


It's like I checked into rehab
Baby you're my disease
It's like I checked into rehab
Baby you're my disease
I gotta check into rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease
I gotta check into rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease


Damn,
Ain't it crazy when you're loveswept
You'll do anything for the one you love
'Cause anytime that you needed me, I'd be there
It's like you were my favorite drug
The only problem is that you was using me
In a different way that I was using you
But now that I know that it's not meant to be
You gotta go, I got to ween myself off of you


And I'll never give myself to another the way I gave it to you
Don't even recognize the way you hit me, do you?
It's gonna take a miracle to bring me back
And you're the one to blame
'Cause now I feel like, oh
You're the reason why I'm thinking
I don't want to smoke on these cigarettes no more
Guess that's what I get for wishful thinking
Should have never let you into my door
Next time you want to go on and leave
I should just let you go on and do it
'Cause now I'm using like I bleed...
Using like I bleed


It's like I checked into rehab
Baby you're my disease
It's like I checked into rehab
Baby you're my disease
I gotta check into rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease
I gotta check into rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease

La Lohan Gets Arrested Again


Shortly after 4am PST, Lindsay Lohan was arrested AGAIN and booked for DUI charges and drug possession. She is free on $25,000 bail USD.

Lohan failed a field sobriety test by the Santa Monica police department in California.

While being searched at the station, police found cocaine in her pocket.

Reportedly, she was driving a white Denali chasing her assistant and her assistant's mom in a black Escalade at around 2:15am PST, which caused the mother to call 911 on Lindsay.

All appearances by Lohan have reportedly been canceled (including tonight's premiere of I Know Who Killed Me, Lohan's mystery/horror/stripper flick opening Friday).

We hope she gets real help before it is too late for her life and career. It's hurtful to watch beautiful and talented people in distress.

UPDATE: Lindsay's attorney Blair Berk issued the following statement to the media:

"Addiction is a terrible and vicious disease. Since Lindsay transitioned to outpatient care, she has been monitored on a SCRAM bracelet and tested daily in order to support her sobriety. Throughout this period, I have received timely and accurate reports from the testing companies. Unfortunately, late yesterday I was informed that Lindsay had relapsed. The bracelet has now been removed. She is safe, out of custody and presently receiving medical care."

Tammy Faye Dies at age 65

Former televangelist and Christian Music singer Tammy Faye Messner (aka Tammy Faye Bakker) passed away on Friday at her home in Matthews, North Carolina. She died from complications of colon cancer which had recently spread to her lungs and was declared inoperable by medical specialists. Tammy Faye had been battling the disease since 1996.

Her last interview and television appearance was on Larry King Live on CNN. It aired on July 19th, just one day before her passing. The program was recorded a day earlier on July 18th; Tammy Faye died less than 48 hours after her final Larry King taping.

Before her death, she appeared on a season of Vh1's The Surreal Life reality show.

She also starred in the documentaries The Eyes of Tammy Faye and Tammy Faye: Death Defying.

In the late 1980's while working with her now ex-husband televangelist Jim Bakker, Tammy Faye's world was rocked when it was discovered that Jim had been involved in a sex scandal with church secretary Jessica Hahn (who later posed for Playboy). They later divorced and Tammy Faye married church builder Roe Messner in 1993.

Tammy Faye has developed a devoted fan base in the gay and specifically drag queen communities. A drag entertainer dubbed Tammy Faye Sinclair performs in the West Virginia, Ohio, and Kentucky areas. Tammy Faye Messner has also been known as one of the few evangelical Christians who had the support of the gay community. She was one of the first televangelists to reach out to those with AIDS when it was a little-known and much-feared disease. In return, she told Larry King in July, "When I went -- when we lost everything, it was the gay people that came to my rescue, and I will always love them for that."

She provided a sentimental touch to stories and loved to sing. In a move that sharply distinguished her from other televangelists, she showed a more tolerant attitude when it came to homosexuals, and she featured people living with AIDS on PTL (PTL=Praise The Lord, a evangelical television program Tammy Faye and Jim Bakker ran until the Jessica Hahn scandal, at which point the late Jerry Falwell took over). Tammy Faye would frequently be seen on PTL urging her viewers to follow Christ and show sympathy and pray for the sick.

Christina Defends Britney After Past Rivalry




Christina Aguilera is coming to the defense of former rival and Mickey Mouse Club co-star Britney Spears.


Aguilera says:
“Britney is a good person and a good mom. She’s been under so much pressure since she was a child. I don’t think any of us should judge her or jump to conclusions. She loves her boys (Sean Preston and Jayden James) and they’re turning out great.”

The First America's Next Top Model Winner Adrianne Curry Speaks Out And Keeps It Real




“As many of you know, Perez Hilton wrote some lame ass blog about me “acting” like I was hitting a bowl IN STUDIO at NOWLIVE.com on “That’s Estertainment” (www.myspace.com/ester). He didnt get my name right…the name of the show…or anything else for that matter. No, I really was NOT smoking weed.

HOWEVER, I am PRO-MARIJUANA. I believe it should be 100% legal. I am a winner of 2 HIGH TIMES Stony Awards and I support the Marijuana Policy Project. Marijuana is PROVEN to be less addictive and destructive then ALCOHOL. Anyone who is shocked by the fact that I am pro weed obviously doesn’t know a fucking thing about me. I am me, that’s all I care to be. I could give a flying fuck less what anyone thinks about what I do or believe in. I want to vote for Barrack Obama, I think nudity is CLASSY if done in taste, I believe in God, I believe in being true to YOU, I believe that Heroin/Coke/Meth/etc is the downfall of our society, and I believe in the legalization of Mary Jane!

So to all of you who have freaked about this, a big one finger salute to ya! It was comedy, done at work, and was NOT real….but I DO believe that Pot Rocks my fuckin Socks…and I dont care if you do or not. Wouldn’t your lives feel a whole lot better if you had the balls to stick by what you believe in?

Rock n Roll, my friends….Rock n Roll”
