We all know that Britney Spears is a seasoned pro. Like all “Mickey Mouse Club”-launched superstars, she’s been singing onstage since childhood. Which makes this video kind of baffling. Supposedly, it’s Britney’s microphone feed isolated during a concert in Vegas, though we know the “original audio” could have easily been doctored. While my first instinct was to plug my ears and laugh, it does make me squirm a little when I think of how I would sound, taken out of context, singing while dancing my ass off. I have the shower stall acoustics and appreciative backup vocals by my cat, though, so I know I always sound hilarious fab. [Live Leak]
Oh Tiger, you are so busted. Us Weekly has an exclusive interview with Woods’ alleged former mistress, Jaimee Grubbs, in this week’s issue, and along with it they have released a voicemail Woods left for Grubbs, begging her to cover his ass. In the voicemail (which you can hear above), Woods says:
“Hey, it’s Tiger. I need you to do me a huge favor. Can you please take your name off your phone? My wife went through my phone and may be calling you. So if you can, please take your name off that. Just have it as a number on the voicemail. You got to do this for me. Huge. Quickly. Bye.”
“In eight to 10 years, I want to have babies for my Dad to hold, grandkids. And I want to have a husband who loves and supports me, just the way anyone else does. I would never leave my career for a man right now, and I would never follow a man around.” —Lady Gaga, whose kids will have the best Halloween costumes in the world [Elle]
Kate Gosselin is a lot of things, but is she really fascinating? Barbara Walters thinks so; she’s included the (former!) reality TV mom is her annual list of the 10 most fascinating people of the year. Joining Gosselin this year: Sarah Palin, Adam Lambert, Lady Gaga, NFL star Brett Favre, Tyler Perry, Fox News host Glenn Beck and Jenny Sanford—the wife of cheatin’ South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford. We’ll have to wait until the special airs a week from today to find out who the number one spot goes to, but until then let’s have some fun guessing. My bet’s on Michael Lohan or Octomom. Hey, if Kate’s on the list, anything’s possible, right? [via US Magazine]
“I have a problem with muse-ship. I feel like throughout history, it’s been men vampiring on women’s specialness. And why do that for someone? Maybe it’s a fear of intimacy!”
Meredith Baxter, the mom from ‘80s sitcom “Family Ties,” came out as a lesbian this morning on the “Today” show after Perez Hilton posted a picture of her yesterday nuzzling her girlfriend. “I did not want some tabloid to take the story and make it up—I wanted it to be in my own words,” the notoriously private Baxter told Matt Lauer. After three marriages and five children, she started dating women seven years ago and has been with the same woman for the last four years. She says of her public coming-out: “This is a political act, even though that’s not what it feels like to me,” she said. “If anyone knows someone who’s gay or lesbian … they’re less likely to vote against them to take away their rights. I can be that lesbian you know now …” Clip above. [via MSNBC]
This is Roman Polanski and his late wife, Sharon Tate, shortly before she was murdered by the Manson Family in 1969. The photograph, shot by photographer David Bailey, is going up for auction at Christie’s on Dec. 7 and is expected to fetch at least $10,000. How cool would it be if whoever is selling the image—Bailey, I assume—and the auction house donated the profits to a rape crisis center? Not likely, though, I suppose.
With over-the-top resorts, year-round sunshine, killer shopping, picturesque beaches, and the world’s tallest building, Dubai quickly became the celebrity destination of choice. Not only were the Beckhams and Jolie-Pitts falling all over themselves to jet-set to the Persian Gulf—many were even investing in real estate there. Well, until the government went public with their $80-millionbillion worth of financial woes. Now that Dubai is donezo, where will the celebrities go to hide away from the unwashed masses? Morocco. Just this past weekend, a bunch of A-listers jetted to Marrakesh to celebrate the opening of a Chopard boutique at the La Mamounia Hotel. Jennifer Aniston, Gwyneth Paltrow, Orlando Bloom, Salma Hayek, Miranda Kerr, and Juliette Binoche were just a few of the guests in attendance. Could this signify a renaissance of the ‘60s bohemian hot spot? [Celebitchy]
After the jump, some “now” destinations where celebrities will be heading in 2010.
A year ago, 21-year-old Jesus Pinto na Luz (that’s his full name) was a sizzling Brazilian fashion model, pulling in $500 a day, and assigned to a high-profile photo shoot for W magazine with a very famous co-star. Jesus played the uber-sophisticated lover of his fellow Rio hotel patron, Madonna, who saw something special in the young hunk. His agent said that he sent Jesus to the shoot and hasn’t seen him since.
Today, Jesus is a sizzling hot, blindingly expensive fashion model and new D.J., with an asking price in the tens of thousands of dollars—thanks to an unspoken chance that girlfriend Madonna might accompany Jesus along to any of his assignments. It’s a gamble that many seem willing to take, and so the public is quickly getting to know a lot more than we thought we would want to know about Jesus Luz. Like ...
Uh oh. It just became an even worse week to be named “Tiger Woods.” A 24-year-old L.A. cocktail waitress named Jaimee Grubbs, who appeared on trashy VH1 dating show “Tool Academy,” claims she has also boinked the very married golf pro. According to a story on UsMagazine.com, Grubbs claims she and Woods had a two-and-a-half year-long relationship and engaged in 20 sexual encounters. Grubbs also claims to possess 300 text messages from Woods and a condemning voicemail in which Woods says his wife, Elin Nordegren, has discovered their affair. Eeek! But once again: take these rumors with a grain of salt, innocent until proven guilty, fame-hungry bitches, etc., etc. Still, we’ve got to say, it would seem that between Grubbs and Rachel Uchitel, the woman whom The National Enquirer accused of being “the other woman,” Tiger has a thing for party girls, doesn’t he?

Madonna‘s children by birth, Lourdes and Rocco (that’s his leg in the track pants), help out Madonna’s adopted children, David and Mercy, while the nanny observes at LAX. [Los Angeles, 11/30/09]

Given the recent he-said-she-said hodgepodge coming from a certain TV couple with lots and lots of kids, “Oh, the drama!” has pretty much now been replaced with “Oh, the Gosselins!” Simply par for the course when it comes to celebrity and 15-Minutes-of-Famer breakups. Celebrity splits have held our universe’s attention for decades, and this decade may be the champion of them all. Sure, some breakups over the years are oddly cordial (Bruce Willis and Demi Moore), while others are syrupy sweet (Will and Sheree Smith). But most have some serious bite to them that brings out the worst in those involved. Here’s a look at some of the worst celeb breakups we’ve ever seen. And we’ve seen a lot. Read more ...
