Celebrity Scandal!

Fun Celebrity Links For You:

* Kanye West says that Amy Winehouse hates him. Considering her activity lately (like punching a fan at Glastonbury Festival this weekend), he’s probably right. Oooooh boy. [US Weekly]

* Pete Wentz cuddles a puppy after he talks about people thinking he’s gay. Yup. I guess having his new wife Ashlee Simpson pregnant isn’t enough– he needs to nurture NOW! [PEOPLE]

* OK! discusses Britney’s fashion hits and misses. It’s pretty painful, so let’s be happy that she’s moving soon. [OK!]

* Is Britney being “reinvented”? I don’t feel like it’s possible, but Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins says that “I’m trying some new things [with Spears] … I’ve always worked with Britney and I love working with her.” [PEOPLE]

Are you surprised that Amy Winehouse punched someone at Glastonbury? Amy, who was rocking it out onstage and actually looking like she was enjoying every minute of it, ended up punching someone as she descended downstage to perform close to the audience. According to recent reports, the “victim” who got punched knew that Amy was actually aiming for someone else, who had thrown something at her and hit her in her signature beehive.

So you think that Amy was out of line, or do you think that we can give her a break this time around? It’s a mess either way.

Enrique Iglesias talked about his divorce, and I’m not so sure that he was joking about it. It’s all so confusing, and I don’t like it at all:

Oh I’m not married, no. I mean I was married. I was married, seriously. I was married a year ago to Anna and I don’t know what happened. We’re not married anymore but we are kind of still in contact.

Iglesias was married to Anna Kournikova, according to him and his outstanding sense of humor. I think. Sh*t, now I’m confused. I have a feeling that that was exactly what he was going for.

Lindsay Lohan’s dad Michael has just revealed to OK! magazine that he had another daughter by a different woman while still married to Dina. . . okay, he was separated from her at the time. Still! The pictures are due to come out in OK!, and we’re really looking forward to seeing how similar they really look. I’d love to be a fly on the wall in the Lohan house, as I can imagine that things are pretty turbulent right now over there.

Oooh, the drama. I love it!

The Hogan family insists that they are very concerned about poor John Graziano, and even raised $60,000 in a special charity fund. . . but wow! I guess the money got lost on its way to the Graziano fam, because their lawyer asserts that they didn’t see a cent:

Graziano’s attorney tells us that they haven’t seen one red cent from “The Freedom Group,” a charity that Hulk just happened to become the towel-waving spokesbeast for … a week after the crash.

Denise Richards caused a scandal of her own when she revealed to In Touch Weekly that her children are going to counseling and that she feels like they need an “advocate.” It’s interesting, since she’s their mom and all, and still is looking for someone to fill a void that I had imagined a mother should. But what do we know? Her family is pretty f’ed:

“It’s very sad that they need to be there, but they do for now. On the other hand, it’s good they have an outlet to deal with their feelings and someone who is just their advocate.”

Maybe she should take some of the focus off her show and spend more time with the kids? Just a suggestion.

According to current rumors, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner will soon be calling it quits (if they haven’t already). The story is that Jennifer is currently mulling over whether of not she should break up with Ben, and since she’s kind of already done this before with her past flame, I wouldn’t be surprised at all. I guess they’ve been sort of hanging out with Violet on their own, and not so much together, and it’s kind of true.

I guess will have to wait and see what transpires, but it doesn’t look good. Word on the street is that Ben’s mother never liked Jennifer, anyway!

Donald Trump is still getting all the good stuff, and he’s continuing to expand just about everywhere. Next stop, Dubai!

The two towers of the Trump International Hotel & Tower, scheduled for completion in 2011, will form the gateway to Palm Jumeirah, the offshore development that will host a permanent residence for the Cirque du Soleil and the retired QE2 cruise liner, along with hotels, apartments and villas.
…
Mr Trump has reserved one of the development’s 399 residences for himself. The project has already received bids as high as $3,270 a sq ft in pre-sales before yesterday’s launch. The $1.1bn development, a joint venture with Nakheel, is the US magnate’s first foray into the Middle East.

So Tyra won an Emmy, hmmm? She was up against Dr. Phil (no comment, because there are just too many comments to choose from!) and PBS’ A Place of Our Own. I was rooting for PBS, since I can barely get through a single episode without saying something nasty about Tyra. What’s the deal? Why do all of her episodes seem to have an outrageous theme or involve undressing? Why?!

Scandalous? In my mind, probably a little. Okay, more than a little. Could this just be a one-off situation? There’s always hope. Check out this clip to see why I despair.

Mike Myers is far from scandalous, but he did send a team of interns gallivanting out to pick up special requests when he made Conan O’Brien last week: raspberry seltzer, a little Silk creamer, and Twizzlers. I have a feeling that these backstage helpers weren’t too bright, since they ended up on a “wild goose chase” and all of these items, as far as I can see, are pretty darn basic. How weird. The New York Post reports: “Then he sent one of the interns back out to get him a new drink when he realized his seltzer was not the brand he requested.”

Shame on him for being a semi-diva!
