Some of the top stories we covered this past week ...

He denies this and says she's guilty of extortion. Lindsay Lohan finally met a person who wouldn't enable her or accept her BS excuses iin Judge Marsha Revel. The actress was thrown in jail for violating probation. Despite cohabitating with killers, she's handling it well. Meanwhile, Linds' idiot dad Michael is accused of beating and threatening to kill Kate Major, his fiancee of several months. We suspect the engagement's off.

Kate Gosselin and her brood are currently Alaska to film TLC's Kate Plus 8. Rumor has it they've got a camping trip planned up north with the most famous Alaskan!

Sarah Palin will be making a guest appearance, according to reports.

The Gosselins were spotted in Anchorage Thursday and Friday. The kids had fun, but it's all about the Kate Plus 8 ratings - and two pop culture phenoms colliding.

The Dancing With the Stars alum is slated to meet with former Governor Sarah Palin for a camping excursion that will be shown on the series. Words fail us now.

During their stay, the Pennsylvanians will also be receiving a hands-on natural history lesson from Palin’s father, Chuck Heath, and Sarah's brother, Chuck Jr.

Both Chucks are school teachers in America's 49th state.

Natalie Grigorieva: The Mel Gibson Tape Source?

The now-infamous Mel Gibson tapes are as shocking as anything we've heard ... well, ever. But the mystery surrounding them has become a separate and equally bizarre component in the actor's custody fight with Oksana Grigorieva.

There may finally be an answer to how Gibson's insane rants against Grigorieva were leaked online, something Oksana has denied being responsible for.

Several sources close to the case say Oksana's younger sister, Natalie Grigorieva, is suspected of being Radar Online's mystery Mel Gibson tape source.

Natalie is being investigated by authorities.

"I suspect if the authorities look at the sister, they'll find a wire transfer or a check to her from

House Of Jonathan Antin, A Celebrity Home

2008-04-02T08:53:00.000-07:00

Remember Jonathan Antin? The guy who is a Hollywood Hairdresser at the same time a Reality TV star and (just recently) at the same time a daddy. Maybe this is the reason why he is looking for a grander celebrity home than this one.

Its been a long time since our favorite Cabaret MC lived here, but the owner of 9119 Thrasher Avenue is selling the place Joel Grey once called his home away from home. Grey owned the pied-a-terre there from 1994 to 1999, and had it remodeled by Franklin D. Isreal. Listing price for the 2 bedroom is $1,895,000. We had no idea Joel has such good taste - the post and beam house has walls of glass, walnut floors, a zen garden and approved plans for a second floor master bedroom, bathroom and office.

In other news, Fawn Hall has reduced the asking price of her home in the bird streets from $2,470,000 to $2,100,000. If you think that name is a blast from the past, check out the very 80s-inspired decor of her home.

And in non-bird street-related celebrity real estate news:
The Real Estalker strikes again, offering us up the scoop on Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale's new house in Beverly Hills. Lots of white. White, White, White. But the photos are (poorly) staged to look like a boutique hotel. Hopefully the Stefdales won't be living inside the eggshell. They bought the house for $13,250,000 from Sam Nazarian, who in turn bought it from J Lo. In fact, this is the house J Lo and Skeletor were married in, so the Stefdales will need to do some voodoo cleansing ritual to get rid of that mojo.

Simon Cowell's Car - He's Hot After Showing of a Simon Cowell Bugatti Veyron

2008-03-20T02:33:00.000-07:00

Its now time again for our search sniffs to find out who's the hottest in Hollywood right now. No, its not American Idol (this season's contestants arent that hot) but close enough. Its Simon Cowell Ladies and gentlemen.

Simon Cowell and his car were showing off in style around Hollywood and he has a pretty good reason to do so. Its not a McLaren nor a Mercedez, but way way way better. Simon Cowell's bugatti veyron is now one of Hollywoo'd hottest couple.

Just look at this beauty ladies and gentlemen. Its the fastest and the most expensive car in the industry today. Street legal that is.

Simon Cowell's love for cars and rides is not that surprising after he has been into numerous guesting in Top Gear.

Cowell's love of speed is well known, having blitzed the BBC's Top Gear track in 1:47.1 last year - the eighth fastest time overall for the 'Star in a Reasonably Priced Car' segment and the third fastest non-professional driver in series eight.
The reality TV multi-millionaire who is reported to be worth over £100million already owns a fleet of luxury cars, including a Ferrari and a Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe. -Daily Mail

Philippines included In Britney's Song Lyrics

2007-11-05T06:34:00.000-08:00

Would you ever imagine, Britney Spears would ever include the country "Philippines" on her lyrics? Well, i never did too. After all, how many countries has she ever mentioned in one of her other songs? I guess none.

The song went on like this. . .

“I’m Miss American Dream since I was 17
Don’t matter if I step on the scene
Or sneak away to the Philippines
They still got pictures of my derrière in the magazine
You want a piece of me?
You want a piece of me…”

From this statement, you can have an impression that britney dont know much about the Philippines and is thinking about sneaking to it like its a getaway island or something. If im asked about this? Why not?! Come to the Philippines Britney, and well show you why life is worth living for in spite of all your problems (Just dont spend so much time on Mindanao.lol)

I wonder why in the world is Philippines becoming such a controversial word on Hollywood nowadays (remember desperate housewives?). Is this a bad sign or a good sign for Filipinos? Well, only time will tell. Lets find out. ;)

Heres the Complete Lyrics of the Song:

And the video of the song for your reference.

Madonna's Wiltshire English Manor

2007-11-04T01:54:00.000-07:00

I have brought to you the homes of Jenifer Aniston, Sandra Bullock and George Clooney so far and for today, im presenting to you on of the Top Celebrity Houses.

Madonna has always been known to be one of the most successful personalities in Hollywood music scene. From chart-breaking classics of material girl to different boylets, she has always been one of the most controversial personalities there is.

Some of us consider stamp collecting and memorabilia/pics collections as hobbies but she has her own, she collects manors, real estates and celebrity cribs. Yes its true, and for this post, im going to tackle about her Wiltshire Manor.

In 2001, the Material Girl went through yet another transformation, this time to lady of the English manor. She and her husband, film director Guy Ritchie, bought a 1,200-acre estate that once belonged to late photographer Cecil Beaton. The pop star learned how to fish, hunt and ride horses. This year, she said she would build a jumping course on the property, despite having taken a bad fall last August. The couple also owns a mansion in London.

Home of Celebrity Sandra Bullock

2007-11-01T04:02:00.000-07:00

Sandra Bullock

On this post, i would like to feature one of the well-known celebrities in Hollywood. We know her as of course, Miss Congeniality which she made big in the cinemas along with numerous successful movies, distinctions and awards. With this much revenue at hand, it wouldn't be very hard to imagine how she is cozing and rewarding herself for her hard work.

Today, im going to feature her real estate in Tybee Island, a place which was literally unknown until she decided to reside there a couple of years back. Its not the biggest of mansions and celebrity real estate but this one is a modest beauty located on the northernmost part of the island. She spent well over a million dollars for this three-storey property and throw in the empty lots beside her house which she bought for her privacy. We see how the celebrities give importance to their privacy.

Well, i think its enough for my introduction. Let me present to you her Tybee Island Home of Celebrity Sandra Bullock.

The Celebrity Real Estate of George Clooney

2007-10-31T20:34:00.000-07:00

For today's post, im going to go for the 'humble' home of ER star, George Clooney. From Jennifer Aniston's Beverly Hills Estate, we now go to a thousand miles away, to Lake Como Italy where this luxurious home is located.

Journalists and tourists swarmed to the small Italian town of Laglio last week after rumors circulated that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie would wed at pal George Clooney’s lakeside estate. The brainy actor/producer/director/writer bought the 25-room villa, known as Villa Oleandra, in 2001. It’s said to have an outdoor theater, a large swimming pool and a garage for Clooney’s motorcycles. source: Forbes

House Of Jennifer Aniston And Brad Pitt

2007-10-31T05:32:00.000-07:00

For my very first post, im going to start off with the FRIENDS' star Jennifer Aniston. She has been one of the loveliest faces in hollywood. Dont you think so? Her marriage with Brad Pitt is a rather ephemeral one. It didnt last as long so you know what would happen to multi-million dollar houses when it is left with divorce. They hit the market on a sky-rocketing price!

Aniston and Pitt bought this Wallace Neff-designed estate in 2001, putting a pile of money into renovations. After they split, it was put on the market for $28 million, then reduced to just under $25 million. Now it’s reportedly in escrow for about $22.5 million. The buyer does get a lot for that price--10,000 square feet of space, black hardwood floors in the living room, a professional 35 mm projection room, a tennis court and an outdoor fireplace near the pool and spa.

Thats it for this post! Hope you guys enjoyed this one. Keep on coming back for more!
