One of the ballads on Beyonce’s I Am Sasha Fierce is a track called “Smash Into You.” Well according to PerezHilton.com, “The song originally called ‘Smack Into You’ was written for Jon McLaughlins sophomore album Ok Now by Tricky Stewart and The-Dream. Though, the song was later scrapped from the album, Jon did perform the song live on his summer/fall tour. Not letting an amazing song go to waste, it was presented to Beyonce and changed to ‘Smash Into You.’ Thats the part Beyonce must have ‘written’ in order to receive that coveted writing credit because the two versions are practically identical lyrically otherwise.” You can listen to the original above, Beyonce’s version after the jump, and decide for yourself….

Tom Brady & Gisele Bundchen Are Engaged — Maybe?
The New England Patriots quarterback proposed to the supermodel on Christmas Eve — apparently he asked while the pair was flying from New Jersey to Boston on a private jet. Her parents were there for the proposal and, obvi, Gisele said yes. I guess congrats are in order, and, duh, they’re going to have some pretty kids, but they totally bore me. I liked him better when he was with Bridget Moynahan. She had some fire. [DListed]
UPDATE: Um, maybe not? Tom Brady’s father is saying he knows nothing about an engagement and that he’s spoken to Tom himself. [People] Keep reading »

Britney To Stop Biting And Other Celeb New Year’s Resolutions
The great thing about a new year? You get to make a fresh start. And once the champagne has been finished and the confetti has fallen, it’s time to put those resolutions into action — well, at least for a week or two. We mere mortals aren’t the only ones resolving to hit the gym more frequently, call Granny more often and save more of that paycheck. Celebrities from Britney Spears to a duchess (and we don’t mean Fergie) are vowing to make some ch-ch-changes. Here’s who’s doing what and why…
Britney Spears
After a helluva year, the pop tart has amazingly landed on her dancing feet, but she says there’s still work to be done. “I would like to stop worrying so much [in 2009],” she told Glamour, “because I worry all the time. And to learn how to be happier, just in general. I have to learn to take things not so seriously. And to stop biting my nails!” Keep reading »

Beyonce Needs A New Bag Of Tricks
The hottest chick in the game has released the third video off her album I Am Sasha Fierce. “Diva” is one of the hottest songs off Beyonce, I mean, Sasha Fierce’s album. It’s definitely something that will make you bop your head in the club. But while watching the video, I was reminded of how “Diva” is very similar to some of B’s other videos. Actually, similar is being kind — it’s like watching all her other videos rolled into one. I think the pop star has gotten so big, she doesn’t know how to outdo herself anymore. After the jump, five tricks from “Diva” that Ms. Knowles has used in her other videos…

Demi & Ashton Are Trying To Spawn
All that Demi wants is another baby! “We’d be delighted if it happened,” Mrs. Kutcher said. “We are doing lots of practicing. And you can’t complain about practicing with him!” Hm, sound like 30-year-old Ashton’s probably just using a baby as an excuse to do it a lot. But hopefully there will be an heir to his Kelso/Coolpix/”Beauty and The Geek”/”Punk’d” empire and we’re all for the mix of their very sexy genes! Ashton’s pretty boy good looks will probably mesh well with Demi’s sleek lady features — perhaps a bit better than Bruce Willis’ busted prizefighter melon. At 46, though, Demi, with three teen kids, is the brave one for going through whatever it takes to implant her with some of “That 70’s Show’s” seed. However, now we’re wondering if Kutcher’s hot shots for V Man magazine were actually him undergoing the medical scrutiny of in-vitro fertilization? Well, no matter, Ashton always makes baby-making look so, so attractive. [Now Magazine]
