T.I.: I'm F*%king Tired of Jail!

The recently-jailed rapper T.I. just posted a statement on his official site, calling life inside a federal prison in Arkansas "truly a pain I have never felt before."
In the first month of an 11-month sentence for violating probation, he says bluntly, "I don't know what effect this will have on my life moving forward."
But ... "I'm certainly sick and mother f*cking tired of going to jail, juve, prison, the pen, correctional facilities or whatever else you want to call it."
A T.I. Pic
T.I. is not loving life these days.
T.I., who stepped up to help a suicidal man last month, admits his faults and says he's finally realized what he needs to do to become a better person, saying:
"At one time I thought my motivation for continuing was for my fans, my partna Philant, my pops, my grandmama, even for the haters or people I let down."
"But nah... I got to do this sh*t for me!!! I'll be God damned if I've come all this way and made it through so much hell to let it go down like this! F*ck that!"
Read T.I.'s full, inspirational message from prison after the jump:
"This experience is truly a pain I have never felt before and that's saying a lot for a nigga who's been down locked up as many times as I have. I see this as a real ass whoopin'. The kind you don't just go back outside to play afterwards. You take ya ass to bed and don't come out of your room until it's time to go to school.
I don' t know what effect this will have on my life moving forward but I'm certainly sick and mother f*cking tired of going to jail, juve, prison, the pen, correctional facilities or whatever else you want to call it. I'd have been better off doing a 5-10 year bid one time than going in time and time again for days, weeks and months for the last 15 years of my life.
Even though it's been a long road, I'm still standing, barely but nevertheless still standing. At one time I thought my motivation for continuing was for my fans, my partna Philant, my pops, my grandmama, even for the haters or the people I let down. But nah... I got to do this shit for me!!! I'll be God damned if I've come all this way and made it through so much hell to let it go down like this! F*ck that! If an hour in the dark is worth a second in the sun then pass me my mother f*ckin' shades cause I'm ready to cash my darkest hours in...ASAP!!!
A lot of folks had fathers or father figures in the house to raise them into manhood. I'm not trying to make any excuses for my situation but my father was a hustler that lived in New York. My uncle was a local big time dope boy turned 10 year federal inmate.
My mother and grandparents did the best they could but I found my manhood in the trap and in prison systems. But I found it. And nan one of mine will ever have to feel the cold tight grip of a handcuff or grace the presence of a jail cell if I can help it.
Over my dead body!
So if you can't respect that you ain't rocking with my movement then Fuck you dog! I know a bunch of mother f*ckers who are.....
- Love KING"

Judge to Chris Brown: You're Awesome!

Chris Brown may have severely beaten Rihanna and tarnished his reputation and career beyond repair, but he's earning A+ marks for his probation work since!
During a progress report hearing in his assault case, the judge said she was not just satisfied, but blown away by Chris' work ethic, telling the embattled star:
"No one has ever done a better or more consistent job than you have."
CBrown Pic
At last Chris Brown has something to smile about.
Brown, who pleaded guilty to felony assault in June 2009, only has seven domestic violence sessions left, and he's completed 581 hours of community service (trash pickup and whatnot) ... which still leaves 819 hours.
Not exactly a slap on the wrist.
Good to see him taking this so seriously and putting in the time to better society and himself after what he did, at least. Don't expect any probation violations from this guy. Lindsay Lohan and T.I. should take notice!

Avan Jogia: Miley's New Man?

Has Miley Cyrus found a new young man?
Sources tell Hollywood Life that Avan Jogia has been spotted out on multiple occasions with the singer, saying the two have been "hanging and getting closer," possibly contributing to the reasons why Miley broke up with Liam Hemsworth for the 29th time a few weeks ago.
Avan Jogia PictureRoaring, Singing
Rumored, quasi new couple alert: Avan Jogia and Miley Cyrus.
Jogia appeared on the SyFy series Caprica and is best known for his role on the Nickelodeon show Victorious.
Although an insider says Cyrus "wants to be officially single for her birthday [November 23] and just have fun with whomever she hangs out with," witnesses spotted her and Jogia on at least two separate occasions in October:
  1. They had lunch on the 28th.
  2. They attended a Halloween party together a few days later.
Avan also gave an interview to Tiger Beat about the alleged relationship and said: “We’re hanging out, but I don’t really have to much to say about that."
Fair enough. With Miley's busy schedule - she recently performed in Europe and will return to the States this Sunday for the American Music Awards - it's difficult for anyone to lock her down these days.

Celebrity Hair Affair: AnnaLynne McCord

AnnaLynne McCord is a really terrible actress. Seriously, she's just an over-reacting mess on 90210.
But the pretty star must have something going for her, right? After all, she's dated Kellan Lutz on and off for years. The answer is clear: McCord has a killer head of hair.
She can wear is straight. She can wear is curly. She can wear it up or wear it down. Any way she goes, the locks are flowing and the compliments are abundant. But what is her best look? We've given readers a pair of options to debate below:

How do you prefer AnnaLynne McCord's hair?

Did Jessica Simpson Buy Her Own Engagement Ring?

As Beyonce crooned, if you like it, you should put a ring on it.
Jessica Simpson apparently took this timeless mantra to heart.
The star, who recently announced her engagement to Eric Johnson, reportedly forked out $100,000 of her own money for a ruby-and-diamond Neil Lane band.
Jessica Simpson, Eric Johnson Pic
The future Mr. and Mrs. Jessica Simpson steppin' out this fall.
"No way could Eric, who doesn’t have a job, afford to purchase such an expensive ring,” a source said. "Yes, he made a little money in the NFL and is from a wealthy family, but unless his parents helped him out, Jessica must have paid for it."
Definitely. That MUST be what happened.
Sources add she may also fund an extravagant wedding so as not to be upstaged by ex-husband Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey, who just got engaged too.
“It will be big, elaborate," said the Simpson source. "She’s already starting planning everything and has every family member working on her big day."
“We all want Jessica to be happy and finally find love after all she has been through," the source adds, "but she doesn’t understand that in the long run if she pays for everything it will hurt her relationship with any man.”
Sure, it's a little degrading, but it's not necessarily a deal-breaker if the man gets to quit business school to live the life of an A-lister while waking up every morning next to Jessica Simpson. Just saying, could be worse for E.

Mel Gibson: Lucia Photos Prove Oksana Lies

Photos, or more accurately video screen grabs of Mel Gibson's daughter Lucia offer proof that the actor did not abuse the infant, according to his legal team.
Shot three days after the fight between Mel and Oksana Grigorieva during which she says he abused them, Gibson says the video proves she's a perjurer.
Oksana claims that during a Jan. 6 argument, Mel hit her twice, and the second blow grazed Lucia, drawing blood and creating an abrasion on her chin.
Oksana and Mel at the Premiere
Will photo evidence clear Mel Gibson of domestic abuse charges?
Oksana Grigorieva submitted a photo in the custody case purporting to show Lucia's injury. But video from January 9 shows absolutely no evidence of an abrasion.
According to court documents, Mel's lawyers claim Oksana doctored the photo to prove a phantom injury - basically they say she's lying about Mel Gibson's abuse.
Mel admits he slapped Oksana January 6, but says it was one time, not hard, and only done to "bring her back to reality" because he feared she would hurt Lucia.
The day after the confrontation, Oksana took Lucia to her pediatrician, and made no mention of an injury, nor did the pediatrician see one. Very suspicious stuff.

Tony Parker: Not Blindsided By Eva Longoria Divorce

Tony Parker, whose marriage crumbled amid a relationship with Erin Barry, says he was not blindsided when wife Eva Longoria filed for divorce this week.
"Eva and I have been discussing our situation privately," Parker told People magazine. "I was aware that she would be filing for divorce in Los Angeles."
Parker also denied a report – since retracted – that he went to court first, only to have Eva convince him not to, at which point she filed out of revenge.
Tony, Eva Longoria ParkerErin Barry, Baby!
Tony and Eva split amid reports of him sexting Erin Barry.
"I did not file for divorce in Texas and did not hire attorneys in either California or Texas," Parker says. "We plan to continue to keep discussions of this private."
Good luck with that.
When you have an affair with a teammate's wife - although sources close to Tony say there was only sexting and no actual sex involved - stories spiral out of control.
Erin Barry, whose husband Brent played with Tony on the San Antonio Spurs from 2004-08, is in the process of divorcing him as well. What a bizarre, sad story.

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt Shun, Call Out "Hypocrite" Darlene Egelhoff

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt recently renewed their vows, and didn't even think to invite her estranged mother, Darlene Egelhoff. The reason for that is simple, they say - she's a "hypocrite" just trying to piggyback off Speidi's fame.
How you can piggyback off of a couple who's also teetering on bankuptcy is unclear, but Speidi insists Darlene's words don't match her actions.
Heidi Montag, Wedding PartyThe Mountain Man
Heidi, three people she no longer speaks to, and Spencer.
"She's so into The Hills and she thinks she's like this Hills girl now," Heidi Montag said. "She's calling up all the tabloids. If she cares, she would stop."
Amid reports that Heidi's mom is asking $5,000 for appearances, Darlene Egelhoff appeared on ET, weeping and imploring her daughter to call her.
Crocodile tears, according to Spencer Pratt.
"If I needed an acting coach, I would go to Darlene," he said, quipping that his mother-in-law can turn on the waterworks "like she's Julia Roberts."
"The lady's such a hypocrite," Pratt added. "I wish Dr. Frank Ryan was alive to tell you, he was in talks with [Egelhoff] to do a full body makeover."
"The list was so long, longer than Heidi's 10, I'll tell you that," he said in reference to Heidi Montag's plastic surgery and Darlene's criticism thereof.
Egelhoff wrote on her blog yesterday that "My face drops from a dreamy smile to an expression of pain with the nagging thought of still not having my precious Heidi in my life ... I close my eyes in an effort to shut down emotionally."
"I cry and cry and cry, soaking my own hair and the floor around me," she wrote.
We wouldn't hold our breath for Spencer to offer you a tissue, D.

Phillipa Lepley: Kate Middleton Wedding Dress Designer?

The dress Kate Middleton wore to face reporters last week is already sold out around the globe.
But commotion over that sapphire frock is nothing compared to the absolute frenzy that has broken out over who will design this beauty's wedding gown.
The Royal Couple
According to the betting firm of William Hill, Phillipa Lepley has become one of the favorites to land this honor. Late yesterday, a number of three-figure bets were placed on this British designer. Really. People are gambling on who will design Kate's dress.
"There is rarely smoke without fire, and I would suggest she is possibly in the running and on a shortlist," said a spokesperson for that wagering agency.
As for the month in which the wedding will take place? The firm has taken April off the board because so many people were placing bets on it. Amazing.

DMX Arrested For Probation Violation

We were starting to think it had been awhile.
Last time we reported a DMX arrest was over two months ago. Something seemed amiss ... until he was busted in Phoenix last night for violating his probation. The violation was simple: not checking in with his probation officer.
He faces a revocation hearing November 24.
DMX Mug Shot (November 2010)
DMX MUG SHOT #15: That's not an exaggeration, amazingly.
The arrest was first reported by local FOX 10. The rapper, who has a long history of legal trouble in his home state and beyond, says he has no hard feelings toward Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the man who keeps arresting him.
“No, hate would ruin my life. I wish him the best - good health, long life - just leave me alone,” DMX said. Hey, at least he's not bitter, right?
Until his next arrest, we leave you with this ...

Ke$ha with a Mohawk: Awesome or Awful?

Ke$ha broke out a mohawk at last night's Us Weekly's Hot Hollywood: Stars Who Care event.
On any other celebrity, this might be a shock. On Ke$ha, we're almost surprised it took so long for her to make like Brody Jenner.

The eccentric singer said she did the 'do herself and:
"Even when I do dress up it's never like a pretty girl. I think it's more interesting to have a little of your [own] style in anything... I'm definitely not the hottest girl in the world by far, but, you have to work with what you got!"
What do you think of the hairstyle?

Tre From Facebook: Willow Palin is Totally Homophobic; Apology Not Accepted!

Tre, the Alaskan dude who Willow Palin called a f*gg*t on Facebook this week, does NOT accept her sister Bristol's apology, thankyouverymuch.
He says Willow Palin, who lashed out at him for mocking her mom's TLC show, uses such language so often, she may very well be a homophobe.
Tre tells TMZ that he's not gay, but feels offended and bullied, given that "Willow called me a f**got in front of the whole world and my family."
Sarah and Willow Palin
What would Sarah Palin have to say about Willow's vocabulary?
Asked if he felt it was a homophobic rant, Tre replied that he thinks so, seeing as "She says 'queer' and 'gay' so much ... so probably ... maybe."
Although Bristol issued a public apology via Facebook on behalf of her and Willow, Tre says he's yet to hear from either one of them personally.
Does he accept Bristol's apology? "No way ... Maybe if it was sincere from them straight to me, I would consider. But it would have to be direct."
"People say these are baby grizzlies defending Mama Bear ... but how is she defending her family by calling us queers and low-lifes and f**gots?"

Six Pack Peek: Justin Bieber Flashes Rihanna

Justin Bieber has a thing for older woman. He's jokingly flirted with Kim Kardashian, Megan Fox, Katy Perry and Cheryl Cole over the last few months. Now, we can add Rihanna to that mix.
But the latter singer didn't simply receive a compliment from the 16-year old... she got an up-close and personal peek at his bare flesh!

Hands to yourself, Justin. Eyes to yourself, Rihanna. At least wait a couple years, sheesh! [Photos: Splash News]
On Monday night, Rihanna, Justin, friends and a record executive had dinner in Los Angeles. During the meal, "Justin started bragging about how he has abs," a source told Us Weekly.
When Rihanna joked about seeing them, the singer obliged!
"Justin took off his jacket, glasses and lifted up his shirt," said an insider. "Apparently he does have a little 6 pack!"
But don't just take this anonymous person's word for it. Rihanna herself Tweeted after the meal:
Justin Bieber just flashed me his abs in the middle of a restaurant! Wow! He actually had a lil 6 pack! Sexy,lol!
Look out, Matt Kemp. You might wanna feel your girlfriend's forehead. Someone is coming down with a serious case of Bieber Fever!

From Where Does Willow Smith Get Her Flow?

Willow Smith might be whipping her hair across the land - and inspiring one of the funnier late night talk show videos in awhile - but the singer is still just 10 years old.
In the latest issue of W Magazine, Willow says simply: "I can’t do whatever I want. Mommy has to say it’s okay.” That mommy, of course, is actress Jada Pinkett Smith.
Willow in W
As for her musical influences and inspirations, Willow touched on those topics as well in the interview:
On her musical influences: “I like the way Billy Idol sings. Mommy turned me on to him. And I like Lady Gaga’s songs.”
On her parents: “Mommy and Daddy inspired me to be a performer. I get my flow from Daddy, my singing ability from Mommy, and the camera stuff from both. That’s just what happens when you hang out with the Smiths!”

Sarah Palin to American Idol Contestants: You Are All No-Talent Hacks!

Yes, this is a real story.
In Sarah Palin’s latest book, America by Heart: Reflections on Family, Faith and Flag, due out next week, she takes on a number of weighty topics. Presumably.
According to excerpts leaked today, she also lambasts American Idol for fostering a "cult of self-esteem." You know, since no one tells the singers they're bad!
Ninth IdolSarah Palin Speaks
WE'RE #1! Sorry, Lee DeWyze, but according to some observers, you're not.
"No one they have encountered in their lives - from parents to teachers to their president - wanted them to feel bad by hearing the truth," opines Sarah Palin.
She says Idol trots out a "seemingly endless supply of people who can’t sing but are deluded enough to get in front of a national television audience anyway.”
[Rebuttal rendered unnecessaray]
Does the star of Sarah Palin's Al
ska think the show's judging isn't harsh enough? Or shouldn't exist because it encourages mediocre singers to think they're stars?
Is this really necessary or accurate? While some Idol products are bad, the show did produce Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, Chris Daughtry and other stars.
As far as the broader narrative (we think) she's going for, we sort of agree that kids are coddled nowadays, but ... we're still a bit unclear on what her point is.
In any case, Sarah needn't worry that everyone out there is afraid to tell the truth. We've totally done so regarding Willow Palin's homophobia. You're welcome.

Excuse Adam Lambert While He Kisses Some Guy...

Adam Lambert paid homage to Jimi Hendrix at a concert in France last night.
And to the countless music fans that have often mistaken the lyrics to this icon's classic 1967 single "Purple Haze."
As part of his Glam Nation Tour in Europe, Lambert treated concert goers to a rendition of this single, switching up the words from "Excuse me while I kiss the sky" to "Excuse me while I kiss some guy." Not merely apt for Adam, the latter verse has been sung so often that a website has actually been created in its honor.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Bested by Twilight Saga!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows brought in $24 million across the nation last night, as fans lined up for midnight showings of this blockbuster.
While impressive, though, that tally falls short of two Twilight Saga installments.
Harry and Hermione PosterNew Exclipse Poster
The record-holder for midnight showing haul is Eclipse, which earned $30 million during the first two hours of its release. That figure topped the previous best: New Moon's $26.3 million.
In 2009, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince brought in $22 million during this time slot, proving once and for all: no magic is a match for chiseled abs and brooding paleness!

Erin Barry: A Real-Life Desperate Housewife

Erin Barry, the mistress/sext-message fiend behind Eva Longoria and Tony Parker's divorce, is a real desperate housewife - a good girl gone bad!
According to the New York Post, the estranged wife of Brent Barry, a former teammate of Parker's, had been sexting Tony Parker for over a year.
But in 2006, Erin Barry described a storybook marriage to Brent, then a guard with the San Antonio Spurs, with San Antonio Woman magazine.
Tony Parker ImageErin Barry Image
SEXT BOMB: Erin Barry's charms were too much for Tony to resist.
"To sit in your nice home, have your nice job and ignore the suffering going on around you, you can't enjoy what you have if you don't help those that are less fortunate," she said. "For me to be able to use the blessings that I have feels good."
Erin identified herself as a housewife and mom, a high-school sweetheart of Brent who met while a student at an all-girls Catholic school in San Francisco.
Erin also revealed she was born to a single, teen mom and adopted by a couple that also had three biological children: "It was kind of obvious," she said. "Here I was with my dark hair and olive complexion in this Irish-Polish family."
The news of Tony Parker and Eva Longoria's divorce comes just weeks after the Barrys, who have two boys, ages 4 and 9, also decided to divorce.
The Barrys wed 12 years ago. Longoria found the text messages between Erin and Tony and filed for divorce after just three years of marriage.
"Eva and I have been discussing our situation privately," Parker said. "We plan to continue to keep our discussions of this matter private."
Good luck with that.
