Former Dancing with the Stars contestants Melanie Brown and Kelly Monaco are set to hit a Las Vegas stage for a burlesque-style performance in which the dancers will be topless. The pair will star in PEEPSHOW, which is expected to open in March at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino.
Monaco and Brown won’t be topless but the dancers around them will be. The former ‘Spice Girls’ star says they will be “scantily clad, but in a classy way.”
Brown will play ‘Peep Diva’ who guides Monaco’s character ‘Little Bo Peep.’ “This is an original show. The Peep Diva is a diva, but it’s all about empowering Kelly’s part. This part is great for me. As a Spice Girl I would bring guys on the stage and whip them, so I think I’ve always been slightly naughty,” Brown says.
Monaco adds that she is “very nervous and very excited.”
Apparently Paula Abdul is refusing to move back into her Beverly Hills home after a stalker committed suicide outside. Paula thinks the house is haunted.
“[Paula Goodspeed] was a deranged stalker who sent her death threats. Paula instructed guards to keep Goodspeed away from her at all costs. She refuses to stay at home because she fears that the spirit of Goodspeed is haunting her house. She feels like this is the absolute worst omen, a really bad curse . . . Paula is suffering. It is well known that she is emotionally fragile.”
Paula, when will you learn? You can’t mix vics and percs! Separate! Seriously, if anyone was on the cocktail of booze and pills that Paula is you would think everywhere was haunted.
Wah Wah Wah! It seems everyone has a sob story these days. *Gasp!* Taylor Swift was bullied in high school!
“[Growing up on a Christmas tree farm] was basically a shunning – and that’s never a good thing, you know?” Swift, 18, says in the December issue of Women’s Health.
“A lot of girls thought I was weird. Actually, the word they liked to use was annoying,” Swift adds. “I’d sit at their lunch table and they’d move to a different one.”
“It’s funny - I thought my contact list in my phone would grow if I was in the music industry,” she says. “But I had more people in my phone book when I was in high school!”
Yeah I bet she was “shunned” since she’s so ugly and all. I bet high school for her was basically a scene out of Bring It On where dudes were basically punching and stabbing each other to get an attempt to talk to Taylor. It’s hard though, trust me, I know. Having to walk the halls everyday getting showered with panties was a bitch, you can’t even get to class!
Kate Moss wasn’t too thrilled to find a vial of blood from an ex-gf that her boyfriend Jamie Hince had kept. Hince apparently kept some treasures including love letters and a vial of blood from his ex-gf Sharin Foo of The Ravenettes.
A pal of Jamie’s revealed: “He was obsessed with Sharin and kept the vial and letters.
“It wasn’t like he used to get them out and read them all the time. He could just never bring himself to throw them away. But now Kate’s found them she’s gone through the roof. She has demanded to know why Jamie had all these reminders of a past relationship.”
The source added: “Jamie has always been a romantic, when he falls for someone he’s completely engrossed in them. The Kills used to tour a lot with the Raveonettes and there was an instant spark between Sharin and Jamie.
“The pair took to wearing each other’s blood in vials around their necks and exchanged romantic notes when they were away on tour. Jamie kept them all.”
What is it with the blood thing? Screw all these expensive colognes, I should bottle and market little vials of blood to people in hopes of landing that perfect partner. Hey kids, give a vial of blood to a supermodel and they’ll marry you. I mean look at Angelina and Billy Bob. It’s kind of like this obscure movie “Love Potion No. 9″ where you take it and whisper a code word and the person falls for you. Creepy in a way, but the blood swap seems to do the same thing.
If you were in Miami Beach on Saturday, odds are that you are now wearing a neck brace from whipping your head back and forth at all the girls in bikinis. Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, Chloe Sevigny, Miranda Kerr, Kristin Cavallari, etc. It was tough to choose, but Stacy won out. Here is Stacy Keibler rocking her powder blue bikini at the beach.
Apparently Paris is getting a little board of her beau Benji Madden and decided to play some musical dipstick over the weekend. A source spotted Paris getting cozy with once f-buddy Stavros Niachros.
“Paris and Stavros were all over each other,” the witness tells Star. “They were at the same table for about an hour and then they left together. It didn’t seem like Benji was on her mind at all!”
This makes sense. When your “brain” is south of the border it’s tough to focus on anything besides penis. Names and faces are just an afterthought.
The Bachelor Charlie O’Connell has rekindled his romance with ex-fiancé Sarah Brice. O’Connell tells People magazine that their relationship is “great right now.”
“Everything’s going great right now. We’re not taking each other for granted. I enjoy hanging out with her,” he says. “We did look at houses together last weekend. I’m not saying moving isn’t a possibility.”
O’Connell, the brother of actor Jerry O’Connell, and Brice were engaged on The Bachelor in spring of 2005. They moved in together soon after but split in April 2007.
Heather Locklear has been formally charged with a DUI. The model was arrested in September for driving under the influence of prescription medications.
“Lab tests showed she had no alcohol in her system and no illegal narcotics of any kind,” says Senior Deputy District Attorney Lee Carter. “We believe that the prescriptions she was taking could have impaired her ability to drive a motor vehicle safely.”
If convicted of the misdemeanor charges, Locklear could face up to six months in jail or a fine. Her arraignment is set for January 26.
Kelly Osbourne, 23, and her 18-year-old model boyfriend Luke Worrall are now open about their engagement. It was Worrall who made it official by releasing the news on his Facebook profile, changing his status to “…engaged to Kelly Osbourne.”
Kelly, 24, has been dating her BMX biker boyfriend, 18, for four months. She has been seen wearing a ring on her engagement finger and recently, she moved in with Worrall. This last weekend, Worrell officially announced his engagement on his Facebook page.
Despite her constant feuds with Brangelina, nightly boom-boom room antics with John Mayer and an ever-present THO, Jennifer Aniston did not manage to boost 30 Rock’s ratings with her guest star appearance. In fact, the episode garnered a season low 7.5 million viewers Thursday night according to Nielsen estimates. Oprah had also guest-starred on the previous show.
I’m a little surprised. I guess since basically ever show on cable has a guest star on every episode, they have managed to wash away the novelty and no one cares anymore. I’m no industry analyst, but I bet if Jen-n-John put out a sex tape, the folks over at Nielsen would be shitting themselves to come up with a graph that could actually depict the record-breaking mega-ratings it got. Stick to your bread n butter Jen!
Felipe Ramales, 26, a busboy at JT’s NYC restaurant “Southern Comfort” has filed a suit claiming that he was not paid in full for his services.
The suit said Ramales and other staffers didn’t get their proper share of a gratuity charge that the Upper East Side restaurant automatically collected from parties with six or more diners. Ramales, of the Bronx, also said he worked more than 40 hours per week without getting overtime.
A manager at the restaurant, Chris Russell, called the lawsuit baseless. He said staff members received every dime of their tips, and busboys were paid well over the legal minimum wage.
Hmmm, busboy vs. Justin Timberlake and his team of insanely expensive lawyers? This will obviously be an even match, the stuff that Law and Order is made of. I’m not saying Ramales claims aren’t true, but does he really think he will win this?
Jamie-Lynn Sigler sat down with Page Six and talked about how she is going through a “second twenties.”
In her early 20s, she explains, she was “often misguided and misled,” and her 2003 marriage to A.J. DiScala was no exception.
“I was told what I needed to be in every given moment, what I should and shouldn’t say. It was such a weird thing when I was 21 or 22 and just getting into the world,” she says. “I didn’t know who I was. I was living in an idealistic dream world, like, ‘I have a successful show and this handsome man, and I’m 22 and I’m getting married and may have a baby next year!’ ”
She quickly adds: “But, man, am I glad we didn’t have children.”
