Kelsey Grammer mulls political office, eyes New York Governorship

“I’ve had a great career and extraordinary opportunities,” says the 56-year old actor. “But I look at my political aspirations as the last piece of my life — where I hope to do something good for people and pay back a little.”
And he says he’s got the right skills – actors and politicians both need “a narcissistic personality” to have any chance of success.
“You certainly have to have a resilient ego,” he More >
New Amy Winehouse album to retell divorce, sources say
It’s being reported that the first of what’s bound to be several Amy Winehouse albums issued after her death will examine one of Amy’s true low-points – her marriage to Blake Fielder-Civil.
Her first two albums; 2003′s ‘Frank’ and the 2006 Emmy magnet ‘Back to Black’ covered her rise to success and her struggle with finding true love, but the third could be her most personal. Already in production it’s said to give a ‘blow-by-blow account’ of Amy’s ill-fated marriage and frequent fights with addiction.
“Amy always had a notebook on her and would write down lyrics and ideas,” says a rep for

In what’s almost an annual ritual ‘Real Housewives of New Jersey” star, Teresa Giudice is bemoaning the fact that she and the other wives can’t get glammed up for ‘Dancing With The Stars’ because the producers don’t want wives on the show.
A fan who calls herself ‘LisaLisaLuv’ sent the 40-year old fashion guru and cook a tweet saying she should be on the show. Teresa agreed but pointed out the choices of Kendra Wilkinson and Pamela Anderson [both season 10] and Holly Madison [season 8] showed the Producers tastes clearly lay elsewhere;

More >Blake Lively, Selena Gomez in ‘Sex and the City’ prequel?
A few months ago rumors were rampant that Candace Bushnell’s ‘Sex and the City’ prequel ‘The Carrie Diaries’ would become a film, and Blake Lively and Selena Gomez could star. The rumors fizzled, but it seems the story is back.
The two books which would form the film’s basis, ‘The Carrie Diaries’ and ‘Summer and the City’ follow Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda in their earlier days, during their teenss and early twenties. So, no Mr. Big.

More >Real Housewives of New York may quit show, sources claim
So, did you see it? Last night ‘The Real Housewives of New York’ were at their most catty and Andy Cohen couldn’t keep order. The whole season was flavored with sarcastic tweets and snide insults about drag queens, but spies say the wives behavior off-stage is so bad they may not return.
“Things have got so bad producers are worried this cast can no longer film together,” one spy shares. “The level of hatred is so high, it’s toxic and it doesn’t make for good TV drama – it’s just petty and sad.”
For example, during the season Jill Zarin was picked out by a blogger as the worst of the bunch,

J-Lo’s first contract expired in May and the two sides have been in talks ever since. At the same time J-Lo’s been telling the press she was ‘on the fence’ about a return, which it now seems was just a ploy for more cash. But the deal seems like it’s done;
“We’re in good shape,” Cécile Frot-Coutaz, CEO of ‘Fremantle America,’ which produces ‘Idol,” tells reporters. “No dark clouds

The apparent romance between Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber has kept fans guessing for months, but last night the crowd at Selena’s show at the Pacific Amphitheatre in Costa Mesa, CA got tangible proof – mid-way through her show Justin joined her on the stage.
Apparently channeling Tweety-Pie in a loud, yellow shirt the 17-year old bounced on stage and gave his girlfriend a hug before diving into a spirited rendition of Justin Timberlake’s ‘Cry Me a River.’ And the crowd loved it!
And just to give them even more to talk about he also sang ‘Favorite Girl.’

More >Real Housewives’ Ramona Singer loves success, being a mom
From last night’s tense installment of the ‘Real Housewives of New York’ you might think Ramona Singer has life on a plate. And she does – but it wasn’t always like that.
The 54-year old was born in the Hamptons and now has a comfortable life with her jewelry designer husband, Mario and 16-year old daughter Avery. But memories of a stormy upbringing still haunt her;
“I’m a self-made woman,” she tells us. “I was a victim of abuse. I saw my mother get the crap beaten out of her – I’d have to call the police. My father had a drinking problem, and I was on my own from 16.”
And Ramona credits her

More >American Idol creator, Simon Fuller sues for X-Factor cash
Since Simon Fuller created ‘American Idol’ in 2002 it’s made him a very rich man. But he now claims Simon Cowell and Fox owe him millions more for his part in the success of ‘The X-Factor.’
When Simon Cowell launched ‘X-Factor’ in the UK in 2004, Fuller claimed it was a rip-off and sued. Fox worked out a truce in which Cowell got more cash for appearing on ‘Idol,’ but he had to keep ‘X-Factor’ off US screens until this year. And in return for dropping the lawsuit Fuller got a guaranteed piece of the X-Factor pie.
But Fuller now says neither Fox, nor Fremantle – the firm that makes both shows
More >Chris Brown is ‘the neighbor from hell’ claim fellow tenants
When Chris Brown did the Today Show recently 18,000 people showed up to admire him. But his own neighbors don’t sound so keen – they call him ‘the neighbor from hell.’
It seems Chris, 22, moved into a condo in West Hollywood a few months ago and the neighbors say their days have since been one endless round of music being played at ear-splitting levels, cars parked in handicapped spaces, very loud parties that go far into the night, and Chris even races his dogs down the halls.
And they’ve all had enough.
There are photos of the cars wrongly parked which tend to back up these claims but
