Congrats Mariah & Nick!

After what felt like the LONGEST pregnancy in the history of celebrity pregnancies, Mariah Carey gave birth to twins this morning!

Mariah & hubby Nick Cannon welcomed the little bundles of joy into the world at 9:07am (PDT) this morning. The girl arrived first, weighing in at 5lbs 3oz and the boy followed at 5lbs 6oz.

Mom & babies are said to be doing very well!

Congrats Mariah & Nick!

Royal Wedding Fever

As BILLIONS around the world watched earlier today, Catherine Middleton married Prince William in what was being touted as the "Wedding of the Century".

In a ceremony that was called everything from "beautiful" to "amazing" to "unbelievable", Kate & Wills became The Duke & Dutchess of Cambridge in front of family, friends and BILLIONS of people watching at home and on-line.

In spite of it being a full-on Disney-esque wedding, there were a few small "hitches" including cousin Beatrice's "WTF" hat:


(Am I the only one who thinks she looks like a character from Tim Burton's "Alice In Wonderland"?)

And Wills & Kate caught in a rather "awkward" pose by cameras:


Otherwise, it was everything a little girl could dream of...and even drew a cartwheel from an enthusiastic verger at Westminster Abbey:

Your "WTF" Moment Of The Day

Adam Lambert needs to fire his stylist. Like, now.

Say It Ain't So...

This CAN'T be a good idea.

It would seem that the cast of Jersey Shore is starting to reproduce. Yikes.

News has broken that Jersey Shore alumnus, Angelina is expecting her first child with fiancee David Kovacs. The couple have been together since February and Angelina has confirmed the pregnancy with the folks at MTV.

Weird Al Goes GAGA!!!

They say you haven't truly made it in the music biz unless "Weird Al" Yankovic parodies one of your songs; I guess Lady Gaga has officially "made it" now...ha ha!

"Weird Al" posted his parody of Gaga's "Born This Way" (called "Perform This Way") on his YouTube page yesterday & originally people were told that Gaga had shot-down his request to release the track as his first single OR put it on his new album (entitled "Al-Pocolypse"). That story hit the Twitter-verse and people were PISSED at Lady Gaga over her alleged snub of the weird one.

Later in the day, however, it was revealed that Gaga hadn't actually heard the parody and it was one of her managers (who I'm sure is now jobless) that had denied Al's request. Gaga listened to the track (at the urging of her "little monsters") and gave it her blessing!

Take a listen for yourself!

Betty Blasts Lindsay & Charlie

God...I love Betty White...and here's why:

In an interview with the UK's Daily Mail, the former "Golden Girls"/current "Hot In Cleveland" star took a shot at some of today's stars for letting their careers spiral into the proverbial toilets. She was speaking more specifically of Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan:

"I cannot stand people who get wonderful starts in show business and who abuse it. Lindsay Lohan & Charlie Sheen for example. They party too much, don't learn their lines, are unprofessional and they grumble about everything. I think they're terribly ungrateful."

Again...I LOVE BETTY WHITE!!!

Hot New Vid From Britney

The BRAND NEW video for Britney Spears' latest single "Till The World Ends" hit the web today, and I've got to say I'm pretty damned impressed.

Follow-Up: Angelina vs. Snooki?

Looks like we could have a good old fashioned CAT FIGHT on our hands here.

After Snooki's AWESOME performance at WWE WrestleMania on Sunday night, Jersey Shore co-star Angelia has spoken out and accused Snooki of copying her by jumping into the "squared circle".

For those who don't know, Angelina has been trying to make a name for herself in the wrasslin' biz with the WWE's rival company TNA Wrestling.

Angelina even went as far as to call Snooki "a fat troll who should never wear those shorts...or be in a wrestling ring."

As an interesting little side-note: Angelina's last appearance on "TNA Impact Wrestling" also happened to be the LOWEST RATED SEGMENT of that episode.

We all know there's only one way to settle this...right?

Jeff @ NOW2K

Snooki...A Wrestling Star?

As much as I hate to admit it, I'm a bit of a fan of WWE Wrestling. And when I heard that Snooki from Jersey Shore had been signed for a match at yesterday's Wrestlemania 27 (alongside Trish Stratus & John Morrison - who are ACTUAL WWE Superstars) I was skeptical and expected it to be total crap.

Again, I hate admitting I was wrong...but I was wrong. Snooki actually managed to hold her own in the ring, even scoring the "victory" by pinning opponent Michelle McCool after an impressive series of somersaults & flips. Check it out:



Snooki's athletic ability really shouldn't come as a surprise though: She did participate in gymnastics until she was 13 and was the captain of her high school cheerleading squad.

Who knew?

Ke$ha's Gettin' $leazy For The $ummer!!!

This morning, it was announced that Ke$ha would be adding a SUMMER LEG to the tour - which has been called "good sleazy fun" and "basically the best thing EVER".

Winning? Ummm...Not So Much...

In what can only be described as one of the LEAST shocking events of the weekend, Charlie Sheen's "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not An Option" show completely BOMBED during it's first show last night in Detroit. Want a run-down of how the show went? Here goes:

- It started with the crowd chanting Charlie's name & all his catch-phrases in anticipation

- The opening comedian got booed off the stage

- The show started an hour late

- The "goddesses" made out with each other on stage, possibly as a distraction from how LOUSY the rest of the show was

- When he was heckled 30 minutes into the show, Charlie actually shouted to the crowd, "I've already got your money dude!"

-People left early

Still upset you didn't get tickets to any of the shows on the tour? Don't be.

Absolutely BRILLIANT!!!

It doesn't look like Rebecca Black's song "Friday" isn't going to go away anytime soon...especially when there are brilliant performances of it like this one - featuring Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, The R.O.O.T.'s & Taylor Hicks! Enjoy:
