MTV to Unleash Snooki on NYC New Year’s Eve Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:55 AM PST BALLER: With the tiny Snooks on board, the MTV ball will be lowered into the Atlantic Ocean and never heard from again. Just kidding. Wishful thinking there. Friggin’ Snooki. Who better to ring in the New Year with? Who better to be placed inside a ball and dropped on live TV to boot? No one, at least in MTV’s eyes. The orange Jersey Shore star, who once went by the name of Nicole Polizzi, will be ushering in 2011 from inside the network’s New Year’s Eve ball. Just before midnight, the pickle freak will descend upon Times Square. “I’m gonna be like a friggin’ hamster,” she said. “It’s the first time they’ve done it. I’m not sure how it’s going to work, but I think it’ll be fine.” She should be. If there were any real danger, the network would have done a test run on Angelina Pivarnick. If that went awry, no big thing. thehollywoodgossip

Lady Gaga Named Most Charitable Star of 2010 Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:52 AM PST You’ll rarely meat a more charitable star than Lady Gaga! To the surprise of no one, the incomparable Lady Gaga has been named the #1 most charitable star of 2010, according to DoSomething (dot) org. The Grammy winner is known for her hit songs, racy photos and outrageous fashion, but also for throwing her weight behind philanthropic projects. A relentless advocate for LGBT rights, Gaga has also helped raise money for Haitian relief, homeless youth, HIV/AIDS and environmental causes. The runner-up, Alicia Keys, has also devoted endless time and energy to the battle against HIV and AIDS, and should be commended for that. Other celebs in the Top 10 include Taylor Swift, Ellen DeGeneres, Nick Jonas, Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey and Justin Bieber. All of them deserve major props for using their star power for good, and special thanks for setting that kind of example for fans to look up to. thehollywoodgossip

Camille Grammer Has Lost Respect for Kelsey Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:49 AM PST Never one to shy away from the press, Camille Grammer has spoken out again about soon-to-be-ex-husband Kesley. A few weeks after saying she felt completely abandoned by how the actor filed for divorce after 14 years of marriage, read on to see what this Real Housewife told The Huffington Post. “I still love my soon to be ex husband,” Camille said. “I respect him as a person, I don’t respect how he handled the affair and the divorce and how things went down.” It’s hard to blame this reality star for that reaction. Kelsey got engaged to Kayte Walsh before his divorce proceedings were even finalized. “He’s in love, he’s getting married, so I don’t think there’s any reconciliation,” Camille added. “Someone gets engaged and tells you he’s going to get married in January and we’re still legally married. We’re separated, we’re not divorced yet.” Has she spoken to her ex any time recently? “I would love to have an open dialogue with my husband at this point because I think it’s really important to co-parent, and the only way we’re going to co-parent the correct way is if we talk, and right now it’s through e-mail and lawyers.” Camille said Christmas was difficult, but “I’m creating new traditions with my family and my children.” thehollywoodgossip

Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz: New Couple Alert! Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:44 AM PST It didn’t take long for Rachel Weisz to find a new man. A little over a month since the actress announced her split from Darren Aronofsky, she was spotted holding hands with Daniel Craig in southwestern England. The movie stars were spotted entering a small pub together over the weekend. They “looked like a romantic couple in a film,” a witness told Britain’s News of the World of Craig and Weisz. “They were laughing and chatting and hanging on to each other’s words and stopping to take photos of each other.” The pair will star together in Dream House, scheduled for a March release. They have denied reports of any romantic relationship, but onlookers and new photos say otherwise. thehollywoodgossip

Lindsay Lohan Off the Hook For Rehab Fight Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:40 AM PST HO, HO, HO: Lindsay’s Christmas season is now more cheerful. Bribes go a long way. Just kidding … well, mostly. Whatever the reason, Lindsay Lohan received a lovely Christmas present when Dawn Holland dropped her battery allegation. The ex-Betty Ford employee who got into an altercation with the troubled star, who she accused of attacking her, is letting the case against Lohan go. “Dawn will not continue to press charges against Lindsay, nor will she be assisting any further in the investigation or prosecution,” her attorney said. “A crime has quite simply not been committed by Ms. Lohan.” The authorities could still file charges against Lohan, but without the testimony of the one witness who lodged the complaint, it would lead nowhere. As such, Lindsay looks to have beaten the rap once again. Last week, the Palm Desert Police confirmed that Lohan was the suspect in a physical incident with Holland, a chemical technician at Betty Ford. Holland claimed that Lohan attacked her when asked to submit to a breathalyzer test andthat she went to the hospital to be treated for injuries. Hours after blabbing her story to celebrity gossip site TMZ, Holland was fired from the famous rehab facility for violating confidentiality rules. A day after that, she pulled a 180 and said she would no longer pursue any case against the 24-year-old, like herself a recovering addict. Holland did not want “in any way shape or form to do anything that would violate Lindsay’s probation or cause an arrest,” her lawyer said. Lohan faced at least six months in jail if she had been found guilty of assault, as it would constitute a probation violation. But it’s all good. She is scheduled to leave rehab January 3. God help us. thehollywoodgossip

What Did Kim Kardashian Get for Christmas? Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:37 AM PST Kim Kardashian received the Christmas present of her dreams this weekend. No, it wasn’t a lifetime supply of QuickTrim. “Best Christmas gift ever! Mason said KIM!,” the professional star Tweeted. “Kourtney told me, I didn’t believe her then he said it to me! I almost cried!” The Celebrity of the Year Finalists celebrated the holidays by attending the Lakers game against the Heat and also by attending a screening of Little Fockers. It’s hard to imagine which of those was more depressing for the family: Los Angeles’ blow-out loss to Miami, or the sad state of Robert DeNiro’s career. thehollywoodgossip

Bristol Palin to Enroll at Arizona State? Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:35 AM PST SUN DEVIL: Is Bristol heading to ASU? [Photo: Pacific Coast News] Dancing With the Stars finalist / abstinence advocate / Facebook fiend Bristol Palin just bought a house and says that she may enroll in college nearby. The location of said property: Maricopa, Arizona. The $172,000 Arizona home Bristol Palin just paid for in cash has five bedrooms, 2.5 baths and 3,900 square feet. The price? $172,000. Quite a deal. So far, no word on which school the 20-year-old will be attending, but the home is just miles from Arizona State University’s school of broadcasting. Bristol has expressed an interest in broadcasting public speaking. Another fun fact: ASU declined to give Barack Obama an honorary degree in May. He gave the commencement speech, but officials deemed that he, the President of the U.S., hadn’t done enough in his career to warrant the honor. Sounds like a good fit for Bristol. Sarah Palin? So proud. thehollywoodgossip

Justin Bieber Thinks Selena Gomez is “Amazing” Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:32 AM PST When recently asked if she and Justin Bieber were a romantic item, Selena Gomez quickly dismissed that rumor. But when MTV brought up this same topic with Justin a couple days ago, he didn’t confirm a relationship between he and Selena. But he didn’t exactly shoot down the idea, either. “She’s really cool,” Bieber told the network. “She’s an amazing person.” Does he mind that so many are so curious about his love life? Said Bieber: “I think that people are always gonna be interested in my personal life… but I gotta keep some things to myself. I’m just having fun being a teenager.” As he should. But as long as he and Gomez spend time alone together, as they did in Miami last week (pictured), such (adorable!) talk will continue to persist. thehollywoodgossip

Celebrity of the Year Finalist #3: Miley Cyrus! Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:23 AM PST With 2010 drawing to a close, it is with much pride that THG unveils its 10 finalists for its prestigious, Fourth Annual Celebrity of the Year award. These stars all gave us their best, their worst, their nude pics (sometimes) and their scandals (often). This month, THG honors that greatness. After the Jersey Shore cast fist-pumped its way to #4, we present one of our most polarizing figures at #3 … Miley Cyrus! Perhaps more than any celebrity we cover, 2010 was a year of ups and downs for Miley, lows and highs (literally!). It began with the official announcement that Cyrus would be saying farewell to the role of Hannah Montana, and it ended with a bong-smoking controversy that epitomized the lengths this star had gone to over the past 12 months to prove she was transforming into an adult artist. In between, Miley… … dated Liam Hemsworth multiple times. … sang a duet with Bret Michaels. … hosted the 2010 MuchMusic Video Awards. … got slammed by critics for her portrayal in The Last Song. … made out with a female dancer to prove her maturity. … feuded with Perez Hilton over that blogger being an idiot. … rarely wore pants. … suffered through her parents’ divorce. … turned 18. As you can tell, it was a year of starring roles and scandalous actions for Miley Cyrus. Ardent supporters stuck by her side, arguing that she was simply growing up as a person and a celebrity. Critics, meanwhile, crushed the star for her misguided decisions, coming down on her for abandoning a young fan base and trying too hard to prove she was evolving. Where do you stand? It’s a question we’ve asked often and will likely continue to do so. This divisiveness is a significant reasons why Miley had such an impact on pop culture in 2010. thehollywoodgossip

Demi Lovato Spent Christmas with Her Family Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:16 AM PST Demi Lovato spent Christmas with her family. The troubled singer, who was stuck inside an Illinois treatment center for Thanksgiving, was granted a half-day reprieve from the facility on Saturday. Sources say she saw a movie with her mother, step-father and two sisters. “She is doing good and is in good spirits,” an insider says of Demi’s overall progress. “She is committed to the program… She will stay as long as the doctor’s tell her she needs to stay.” Last week, Lovato settled with Alex Welch, the back-up dancer she punched prior to admitting she needed help. thehollywoodgossip

Lydia Hearst to Portray Lindsay Lohan-Like Character in New Movie Posted: 28 Dec 2010 07:09 AM PST Lydia Hearst has landed her dream role, assuming this aspiring actress has fantasized about drugs, denial, promiscuity and multiple court dates. In the upcoming movie Dogs in Pocketbooks, the publishing company heiress will portray “a bratty movie goddess in and out of rehab, in trouble with the law, and hounded by greedy agents, predatory paparazzi, off-the-wall stalkers and crazed media,” according to screenwriter Charles Casillo. Sound familiar? Casillo freely admits this role is “based on Lindsay Lohan.” What qualifies Hearst to take on Lindsay? Well… she’s posed naked for GQ, spent time as a fake lesbian, and dated a total loser. It’s like she’s been training her whole life for this part! As you might expect, the Lohans aren’t taking this news silently. Family lawyer Stephanie Ovadia says producers are “using [Lindsay's] likeness without her being compensated. Not only that but they are advertising the fact that they are using her likeness.” Warns Dina Lohan: “Anyone bringing negativity will be dealt with accordingly.”

Taylor Momsen: “I’m a Product” Posted: 28 Dec 2010 06:57 AM PST She's been involved in the entertainment industry since she was very young, and now Taylor Momsen says she's feeling a bit objectified. The "Gossip Girl" actress explained that as she looks back over her career she realizes that she's nothing more than a marketing tool. "You get more insight as you get older, on everything. I kind of woke up one morning and was like, 'Oh I see what's happening, I get everything.' I woke up and was like, 'I get it, I'm a product.'" Taylor added, "Fame just kind of happens overnight. No one prepares you for it. On Gossip Girl, I was just going to work, doing what I've always done, and then all of a sudden you're like, 'Woah!'" "But you get used to it. You ignore it — because whatever people say about me doesn't bother me at all. If you're in high school or college or at work, someone's not going to like you. It's inevitable. But it doesn't mean anything." Celebrity Gossip

Hugh Hefner Gets Engaged to Crystal Harris! Posted: 28 Dec 2010 05:56 AM PST Ready to settle down with yet another one of his many model lovers, Hugh Hefner has gotten engaged to marry Crystal Harris.

When I gave Crystal the ring, she burst into tears.

The brunette beauty posed in an array of Louis Vuitton ensembles for the Land Down Under magazine while currently promoting her just-released box office topping comedy “Little Fockers”. Aside from her couNtless work endeavors. Jess chatted about how motherhood has helped to make her a bit more selfless. She dished, "I've learned to forgive myself for not being perfect and not stressing myself. I have had a reputation for being fiercely protective of my independence. My daughter has put everything in perspective for me. You stop being selfish and driven in such a narrow personal sense, and you want to build a life for yourself and your family. I tended to be a workaholic in the past and now I don't feel that kind of self-imposed stress anymore.” The 29-year-old added, “My husband and my daughter are my world. Together we want to build a truly loving and beautiful family. I'm very traditional in that sense. When Honor was born, I also felt that it was a good time to change many things. I was always the type of woman who tried to please other people and do everything right. Putting that kind of pressure on yourself isn't healthy for you in the long run. It wears you down.” Hollywood Gossip Photo Credit: Harper’s Bazaar
