Russell Brand has decided to cancel an upcoming stand-up show to the Middle East, I guess over "safety concerns". What concerns exist now that didn't when he first booked the thing is beyond me, but whatever. He was planning to head to Lebanon and Abu Dhabi in August, which is sort of hilarious because I can't see his humour translating to their audience - especially since much of it doesn't even translate in the Western world.
From BBC Radio 5:
"Those gigs have been banned, pulled because of th...
Does Jennifer Lopez go anywhere without Pitbull these days? It's as if he's her actual guard dog. He's on her songs, in her videos and was there by her side as she accepted her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Thursday.
"I really am overwhelmed," she said at the ceremony. "This all feels, I don't know, kind of surreal, but so real. It's awesome.
"This landmark moment inspires me to work harder and dream bigger for all that is the future. I hope you feel as I do that it was all worth it,...
Nicki Minaj's hypeman S.B. (Scaff Breezy) originally shared the above photo on his Twitter, because, I dunno, why not? Nicki retweeted it for the same reasons and now we all know more about what exactly Nicki Minaj's boobs are like. Hurrah!
The shot was apparently a "throwback" to a shoot Nicki did for W magazine. I'm not sure why anyone needed to see this or why you would want anyone to see this, but whatever. Congrats on the nice jugs, I guess?
If this is the kind of stuff she's doing ...

Poor Nick Cannon. He seems like an okay guy but he's always playing second fiddle to, you know, actual celebrities. He's Mariah Carey's husband. He's Amanda Bynes' former co-star. He's the host of America's Got Talent, too, yeah, but... I wouldn't exactly call that an illustrious gig.
In any case, he worked with Amanda on All That (SO don't remember him on that show) and started reflecting on her recent meltdown during an interview on The Howard Stern Show this week.
"That's like my little sister. To se...
Justin Bieber is everything I hate about the world (and social media) and it's hard to just ignore him (as I do with most things I don't like) because he won't stop trying to paste his nasty ass 12-year-old boy's body here there and everywhere. Since Instagram introduced video yesterday, of course he had to get in on the fun by putting up a video of himself without a shirt on, thereby allowing a bunch of pre-teens to discover masturbation for the first time, I guess?

Henry Cavill is the talk of the town these days because of the whole Superman thing, and good for him. I know nothing about him or the film cos it's not really my bag, but yay for attractive bros giving ladies nice things to look at... or something? (I'm trying!) This story isn't really about Henry Cavill being super talented and super hot, though - no, it's about James Franco crying about how Henry Cavill apparently doesn't like him. I don't know either, but let's go with it.

Smoking is illegal in airplanes, but Simon Cowell's both not into playing by the rules and really addicted to smoking, which is why he has his own private jet, because they let him puff away. This news comes courtesy of Dannii Minogue, the low-rent sister of Kylie Minogue (love you, Dannii) who is still talking about Simon even though they haven't worked directly together since The X Factor a few years ago (but they DID get it on back in the day!). Damn, seems everyone wants to air him out these d...
Hey, did you know Johnny Depp is nearly completely blind in one eye? Me neither! He's apparently super near-sighted in his right eye and his left is blurry as hell and he can't see shit out of it, forcing him to rely on some heavy duty prescription glasses. Intense!
From Rolling Stone:
His glasses are prescription, and he needs them badly, though they don't do anything for his left eye. Since birth, he's been "basically blind as a bat" in that one, in a way that's impossible to correct. "E...
Serena Williams is known for being an amazing tennis player, not a fantastic public spokeswoman, and we found out why last week. Discussing the famous Steubenville rape case - in which a 16-year-old girl was drugged and raped repeatedly by local high school football players as others videotaped and then posted the incident on the Internet - she came out with this hot mess to Rolling Stone:
"Do you think it was fair, what they got? They did something stupid, but I don't know. I'm not blaming...
Oh, Russell Brand. He's a generally decent guy with a rampant sex addiction and a strange sense of humour, and you'd got to admire his forthright-ness about some of the shit he's done in the past. His latest "revelation" is that he tried getting with Mila Kunis back in the day, only to get knocked back when she told him she was dating Macaulay Culkin. Oh, snap!
From The Mirror:
He was married to one ofthe world’s hottest women and previously bragged about having sex with more than a dozen birds in...
Hey, does anyone remember Gaby Hoffmann? Don't act like you didn't watch Now and Then, like, 800 times - or, you know, Sleepless In Seattle or Field of Dreams. Take your pick. In any case, Gaby worked with Mel Gibson in The Man Without a Face, and I guess he screamed at her like a maniac on set because, well, he's Mel Gibson and he's a terrible person.
From Huffington Post Live:
"I think I happened to work with a bunch of slightly difficult male directors when I was a kid, and then there...
