POLL: The Apprentice Will Go On Without Donald Trump – Who Should Replace Him?
by Jed Eckert on May.16, 2011, under articles

If Donald Trump decides to utter the phrase “You’re fired!” one last time and actually throw his hat into the 2012 Presidential race, we’ve learned that NBC will continue with The Apprentice, without The Donald!
So what is The Apprentice without the guy who makes the show what it is? He is all about the conflict and the drama, so we have to wonder who they would get to fill his shoes? Who will utter the famous phrase? Charlie Sheen? He’s an “unemployed winner” who has no network affiliations and is already seen as a hot commodity.
According to NBC President Bob Greenblatt, the show would absolutely go on without its famous leader at the helm. Bob said that although the network does hope to have Trump continue his rein with firing people like mad, if he’s busy with politics, the show must go on! He said, “If he decides to run and is unavailable to do the show, we will bring the show back and someone else will be sitting at the head of the board table.”
Don’t get your hopes up if you were thinking that he would speculate on who would replace Trump. He revealed, “Who that is, we’re not going to really entertain, because I’m still hoping we’ll have Donald back in the seat.”
Who would you like to see in Donald’s place if he chooses to run for the Presidency? Do you think he’s replaceable? TAKE OUR POLL!
Have a better suggestion? Leave a comment! Let NBC know your thoughts!

Robert Pattinson: ‘I’m Not A Romantic Person’
by Lydia Harris on May.16, 2011, under articles

Breaking Dawn actor Robert Pattinson has revealed that, despite the rumors, he really isn’t a romantic sort of person! Who knew?!??
This news may come as a surprise to his girlfriend and Twilight co-star, Kristen Stewart. In a recent interview, the actor said that he likes being in love, but even more recently he said, “I’m not a romantic person.”
Interesting. As it turns out, Rob was scarred in his younger days after making a romantic gesture to a girl, but it didn’t work out as well as he planned. He revealed, “When I was 14, I put a flower on the chair of a classmate. She thought it was from someone else. I decided that that was the end of me with being romantic.”
I’m sure she’s probably hating life right about now. You shun a guy who goes on to make millions of dollars in one of the most popular franchises right now? Yes, that’s a total kick in the head.
Even though Rob likes to claim that he’s not romantic, how can he explain his romantic hotel stay with Kristen at the Ritz-Carlton in Laguna Beach, California? That sounds pretty romantic to me!
Is this just promo talk for his new movie, Bel Ami?
Pippa Middleton Vacations With Ex-Boyfriend, George Percy
by Jessica LeFevre on May.16, 2011, under articles

Kate Middleton has already snagged herself a Prince, so perhaps her sister Pippa has her sights set on a Royal man for herself?
Kate famously walked down the aisle at Westminster Abbey on April 29th after waiting for years to finally become the Duchess of Cambridge. Since Pippa was said to have stolen the show at the Royal Wedding, we’re thinking that maybe she was jealous of her sister? It could happen…
We were hoping that maybe Pippa would hook up with Prince Harry, but we’ve learned that she has actually taken a vacation with her ex-boyfriend, George Percy. Her boyfriend, Alex Loudon, might be surprised to hear the news that she and George went to Madrid together.
The former couple spent the weekend in Madrid and were joined by a few friends. Are they rekindling their romance? Or are they just friends vacationing together for an entire weekend in a group setting? Sounds kind of fishy, if you ask me.
CelebDirtyLaundry reports:
Shortly after the wedding there was a lot of speculation that Pippa would soon marry her boyfriend former cricketer Alex Loudon. But today Alex was nowhere to be seen when Pippa landed in Madrid, Spain with her ex-boyfriend George Percy, the 26-year-old son of the Duke of Northumberland, one of Britain’s richest men.
Check out the photo of them together!

by Lydia Harris on May.15, 2011, under articles

Disney star Selena Gomez appears on the cover of the latest issue of Teen Vogue magazine. Inside the issue, she talks about wanting to be head over heels in love.
She has been rumored to be dating teen singer Justin Bieber and said that she is merely enjoying herself. In a recent interview, she said, “At this moment in my life, I’m at a point where I want to be in love, to give my all and fall head over heels.”
As far as marriage is concerned, she revealed that she is simply not ready — hey, she is only eighteen! She’s got plenty of time for that, right? She went on to say, “I’m 19. I’m not going to marry anybody I’m with and I know that. The next heartbreak I have I’m sure I’ll be like, ‘How can I live without this person?’ But I’m still trying to dive in and enjoy it.”
During her boyfriend’s stop in Indonesia, the happy couple shared a kiss, much to the delight of onlookers. Check out the video, below:
They do make a really cute couple, don’t they?
Recently, Selena revealed that she’s sad over the ending of her time on her Disney show, Wizards Of Waverly Place. She said that she is going to be crying when the show comes to an end. It’s just a new chapter in her life, right? Maybe they should make a Wizards movie?

Rebecca Black Denies Pregnancy Rumors
by Jed Eckert on May.15, 2011, under articles

Thirteen-year-old pop singer Rebecca Black has been dogged by rumors that she’s pregnant! WTF, right? The girl is only thirteen, yet people are making stuff like this up? What is the world coming to?
Thankfully, putting an end to ANY speculation, she took to her official Twitter page to deny the reports. She tweeted, “I thought it was May 15th…not April Fools Day. I’m absolutely NOT pregnant.”
Thank God for that. We would have to start wondering who would be going to jail for getting her pregnant. That’s just gross, she’s still a child.
In other related news, Rebecca has yet to sign a record deal (surprise, surprise.) She’s reportedly working on some songs that are in the same family as her famously hated song, Friday. She commented in a recent interview that she wants to keep the songs clean and appropriate.
So, a song called Saturday isn’t in the cards? Inquiring minds want to know! Or perhaps a song about going to work called Monday? That would be the anthem of the working class person….only it would have to be done by someone with an inkling of singing talent, because I swear this girl is tone deaf. One of her friends told her that she sounds like Taylor Swift? Ugh, I just can’t.

Lady Gaga Releases ‘Hair’ Single Cover (Photo)
by Lydia Harris on May.15, 2011, under articles

Pop singer Lady Gaga has unveiled her new single cover for Hair.
Along with adding the above photo to her Facebook wall, she said, “Radio 1 show was killer! The Born This Way Itunes Countdown will release my song HAIR 2moro 1pm PST.”
The album, Born This Way, is set for release on May 23rd. So far, she has debuted the title track, along with Judas and The Edge Of Glory.
Recently, the singer broke up with her boyfriend, Luc Carl. She told Graham Norton in an interview that she does not have a boyfriend and hasn’t been dating.
American Idol castoff James Durbin also talked about Gaga’s mentoring during her coaching time on the show. During the show, she got behind him and made him move his hips like Elvis Presley, but he later revealed that he didn’t like it.
He said, “It was unexpected and very uncomfortable. To sum it up in one word: awkward!”
I thought it was funny. Did you watch? Are you excited for the release of her new song? I can’t wait for the album to be released already!
Spencer Pratt Banned From Heidi Montag’s Reality Show
by Jessica LeFevre on May.15, 2011, under articles

In an attempt to generate some much needed buzz about Heidi Montag’s new reality television show, Famous Food, the producers of the show have banned her husband, Spencer Pratt, from the set.
Wasn’t it a mere two days ago that this bobble-headed Barbie was saying that she wanted to live a more private life? In a recent interview, she said, “From now on, I’m going to keep my life a little more private. I think I was just doing The Hills for so long and I just needed a break. Plus, I enjoy my privacy.”
How long did you think that would last?!??
According to reports, head honchos at the show haven’t wanted Spencer around since its inception — and even Heidi agreed with them. Of course she did, it brings headlines to their names, doesn’t it?
We’re told producers were adamant … Spencer wasn’t allowed on the set, near the set, or to be involved in any way whatsoever — and not wanting bad blood … Heidi agreed to keep her man at bay.
We’re told Spencer has behaved himself so far — but we’re not getting our hopes up.
We’re going to go out on a limb here and say that this was all planned just for the show’s benefit. Call it a hunch. So much for trying to keep things private, right? Everything about these two screams, “Publicity stunt!”
Kristen Stewart Praises Jodie Foster
by Lydia Harris on May.14, 2011, under articles

Kristen Stewart starred in the 2002 movie Panic Room with Jodie Foster when she was only twelve years old, but says that the Oscar winner has had a good influence on her career.
In a recent interview, she said, “One of my favorite actresses is Jodie Foster. I think this has a lot to do with me starring in my first movie with her. I watched her a lot on set. Jodie is not the kind of person to give advice, but she was definitely a strong influence on me.”
In addition to that, Kristen revealed that her influences are not only from her professional peers, but she says that she’s also a music fan and says that her favorite artists have also affected her acting talent.
She added, “I’m a bit of an old soul when it comes to my musical tastes. My all time favorite song is Madame George by Van Morrison. That song never gets old to me. There’s something comforting and raw about it.”
Kristen also talked about how she fell in love with Vancouver, after filming scenes for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn there. She said, “We shot most of the Twilight series in Vancouver. I fell in love with it – it’s such a beautiful city. I found the climate so different from what I’m used to in Los Angeles. The air is clean and fresh and there are beautiful mountain views everywhere. But I didn’t get to go out as much as I would have liked.”
Jon Cryer Responds To Ashton Kutcher’s TV Role On ‘Men’
by Roberta Ferguson on May.14, 2011, under articles

Jon Cryer has really kept a low profile since Charlie Sheen exploded in a anger-filled rant at Two And A Half Men creator, Chuck Lorre. He has poked fun at himself, joking that he’d taken on a job answering phones for talk show host, Ellen DeGeneres (photographed at the reception desk above). Now, Jon has something to say now that the news has circulated that Ashton Kutcher is stepping in for a new role on the hit TV show.
Jon has revealed that he’s “jazzed” about the news that Ashton will be joining the cast of the show. Jon said in a statement, “I’m jazzed about the news this morning that Two And A Half Men is coming back! For all the rest of the cast and crew I’m sure they are equally excited…Ashton is an extraordinarily talented guy and his presence will be an asset to our show. We are old friends from our male modeling days and we’re both looking forward to being judged for our comedic artistry, as opposed to our exceptional physical beauty.”
Jon also had some words for his former co-worker, Charlie Sheen. He said, “I want to express my enormous gratitude to Charlie Sheen for eight great seasons. I’m extremely proud of the work we’ve done together and I will miss him. But I’m also looking forward to this new beginning.”
In a recent statement, however, Charlie said that the show would basically fail without him. What do you think of the casting for the show? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
