Peter Kowalczyk was charged with assault last week after punching Leona
Lewis during her book signing. The Metropolitan Police announced that
he will be appearing before the City of Westminster Magistrates’ Court
on October 26th. As of now, the man has been sectioned under the Mental
Health Act. You’d have to be off your rocker if you attacked someone
like Leona. The singer is absolutely the sweetest. By the way, I’m not
so sure about the guy being mentally ill. I bet he’s just saying that
he is to get a more lenient sentence.

Simon Cowell’s bluntness showed up at 5

celebritylife — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 06:26:31 +0000

Julie Cowell, 82, says her son’s signature honesty began to show up early, at age five. “I bought a new hat and asked him if I looked nice in it. He replied, ‘You look like a poodle.’ It would only upset me if he really was a nasty person. Simon isn’t nasty – he’s just honest.”

Cowell said Simon, who just turned 50, was raised in the UK on politeness, which is more important to her than his wildly successful television career. Julie often goes to the studio to watch the son she said informed her he would not be getting married at the tender age of 19. “I thought he might change his mind, but he’s now 50 and it doesn’t look likely to happen.”

Julie, who survived breast cancer 14 years ago, recalled her husband Eric’s death of a heart attack on the day Simon had his first Number One in the US with Westlife. She said: “Simon phoned me from America, thrilled. I couldn’t bring myself to tell him that his father had died, and I said I’d call him back. I wanted him to have his day of celebration but he had to be told, so [Simon’s brother] Nicholas called him. He came straight home and was devastated.”

Katie Holmes is set to vamp it up for a Judy Garland tribute performance on US talent show So You Think You Can Dance.

Tom Cruise’s wife is reportedly planning to wow TV audiences by strutting her stuff on stage in a sexy all-black ensemble during the show, hosted by British presenter Cat Deeley.

In a jaw-dropping routine, the former Dawson’s Creek actress, 30, will sing Garland’s Get Happy hit from the 1950 musical Summer Stock.

She is expected to show off her figure in an outfit similar to Garland’s famous black velvet fedora, patent leather heels, nylon stockings, body-hugging skirt and micro-mini skirt.

Holmes has reportedly been rehearsing this week at the Fox studios, in California.

A source said the Batman Begins star has been thrilling everyone with her performance

“She looks incredible. She is just doing an amazing job. Everyone is absolutely floored by how talented she is.”

The red-hot performance is expected to be shown on the primetime Fox show early next month.

Kanye West Closes VMAs

celebritylife — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 21:19:23 +0000

It’s a little bit sad and greatly hypocritical that some people just forget their words and let go of their pride. If you remember, Kanye West was rather upset and insulted at last year’s MTV VMAs because he didn’t win the number of awards he thought he deserved. He was also annoyed that his performance was limited to a small stage. He vowed to never return to another VMA after that. Apparently, his word is only as good as the money they can throw at him as Kanye was at the 25th VMAs this past Sunday.

Rihanna’s VMAs Get Disturbed

celebritylife — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 21:18:43 +0000

Rihanna performed ‘Disturbia’ at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards which were held at Paramount Pictures Studios in Los Angeles last weekend. English comedian Russell Brand hosted the event with Britney Spears opening up the show. Rihanna was one of the people who stood up to give Britney a standing ovation during the opening. If you remember last year’s VMAs, Rihanna was seen laughing at the recovering starlet over her disaster of a performance. Honestly, I think Rihanna got robbed out of some of the awards that Britney got. But maybe they gave it to her for all her efforts to get better. Plus, it’s a great way of rebuilding a relationship with Britney. Rihanna didn’t seem to mind anyway.

No one can.

Whether you like it or not, Mariah Carey has a new movie coming out!

The film centers on two lower-middle class brothers (Adam Rothenberg, Ethan Peck) who decide to take the road in search for a better life. Along the way they meet a waitress (Carey) whose dreams of a singing career have been dashed by a bad marriage.

VERY ORIGINAL. Yeah.

Her new (soon-to-bomb-much-like-Glitter) film, Tennessee, is being released in theaters this December.

Alicia Keys Through a Marriage

celebritylife — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 21:15:14 +0000

According to a new report, Alicia Keys could be named as the other woman in the divorce of hip hop producer Swizz Beatz and R&B singer Mashonda. The soon-to-be former Mrs. Swizz apparently lost it when she heard about the birthday party that Alicia threw for Swizz at the Manhattan Louis Vuitton store last week. A friend of the producer told the media “His relationship with Alicia began after their separation. He hasn’t kept it a secret. He still has great love for Mashonda and has promised to take care of her and their son and support her career.” Mashonda says otherwise though. A friend says “Mashonda has had enough. She put her career on hold to be a wife and mother. She’s tired of pretending she’s deaf, dumb and blind to what’s going on. She can’t believe how disrespectful Alicia is being.”
