Justin Bieber bites stripper's boob with friend Khalil Sharieff at party

E'S the showbiz brat who many fear is on a downward spiral, and now another photo has emerged showing how wild Justin Bieber has become.
The teenage star has been caught on camera sucking the breast of a female stripper with friend Khalil Sharieff, TMZ.com reports.
The photograph shows them both sucking on one breast each at a recent party.
HOW JUSTIN BIEBER BECOME A SHOWBIZ BRAT
According to sources, the stripper, who had fake breasts and a classy rainbow-coloured Playboy tattoo, was hired to "perform" for Justin and his pals at an L.A. recording studio.
Bieber's wild lifestyle has continued to come under scrutiny after his private jet was reportedly detained on suspicion of there being marijuana on board.

But that hasn't been the end of Bieber's dramas with police.
This incident comes just days after the 19-year-old turned himself in to Toronto police after a December 29 skirmish involving a limo driver.
Bieber allegedly attacked the driver, resulting in criminal assault charges.

While it was initially believed that members of his entourage were responsible for the attack, Bieber became a prime suspect after he didn't show up for questioning.

Teen pop star Justin Bieber is released from a Miami jail, escorted by officers, and waves to fans.

Meanwhile, Miley Cyrus among other celebrities have expressed what they think of Bieber's latest antics.
If you don't want to get in trouble, she says, do your partying at home.
Cyrus appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno musing about why it was Bieber didn't have anyone working for him to help keep him out of trouble.
Otherwise, she added: "Party at your house. Buy a house, and add a club to it."

Justin Bieber battles ‘very public’ fall

Justin Bieber is the latest in a long line of troubled former child stars to veer off the rails — the question now is, can those around him save the teen from a complete train wreck. And if so, how?
A spell in rehab? A tough-love crackdown by his management or family? It remains to be seen if the latest brushes with the law will prove a wake-up call for the 19-year-old Canadian heartthrob.
“If I were his manager, my temptation would be to just send Justin to his room for three months,” Robert Thompson, a professor of pop culture at Syracuse University, told AFP.
“The problem is .. there’s 400 paparazzi outside his room taking pictures, not to mention he’s tweeting from his room ... If he tweets from the police station, he’s gonna tweet from anywhere.”
For those who follow Bieber’s antics closely, his arrest in Miami Beach and assault charges in Toronto — within the space of less than a week — are hardly surprising.
Tabloid media have for months chronicled his repeated run-ins with police and neighbors in and around the plush mansion where he lives in Calabasas, northwest of Los Angeles.
The singer has also found himself trouble with authorities in Australia and Brazil for spraying graffiti. In Brazil, Bieber was photographed emerging under a blanket from a notorious Rio brothel.
But unlike similar America hell-raisers, the Canadian could in theory be booted out of the United States, where he has made his career.
On Thursday a public petition on the White House website passed 200,000 signatures, twice the threshold to merit an official response.
“We would like to see the dangerous, reckless, destructive, and drug abusing Justin Bieber deported,” it said.
“He is not only threatening the safety of our people but he is also a terrible influence on our nation’s youth.” That came after he was charged on Jan. 23 with driving under the influence after police caught him allegedly drag racing in Miami Beach, Florida.
Then on Wednesday he was charged with assaulting a limousine driver in Canada, after turning himself in at a Toronto police station with a crowd of female fans screaming their support.
Bieber is following in the footsteps of the likes of Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, “Home Alone” star Macaulay Culkin, Demi Lovato and more recently “High School Musical” heartthrob Zac Efron.
Michael Jackson was another child star who patently struggled to make the transition to the grown-up world.
Bieber — a global star who has over 49 million Twitter followers — seemed to compare himself to Jackson last week, in an Instagram posted after he was charged in Miami.
The post showed Bieber in a dark hoodie, waving outside jail, alongside an image of Jackson a decade ago when the King of Pop was fighting child molestation charges.
“What more can they say,” read the caption. Media reports said Bieber’s father Jeremy — who split from the star’s mother when he was just a baby — was involved in the alleged drag racing.
Canada’s Globe and Mail newspaper said Bieber’s troubles can “be read as an indictment of modern permissive parenting; a cautionary tale about a fatherless upbringing in a single-mom home.”
But, like many non-American entertainers, Bieber — who Forbes magazine says made $58 million in 2013 — lives and works in United States under a so-called O-1 visa.
Thompson said the deportation risk is therefore minimal.
“It’s amusing, but I cannot possibly imagine he could ever be deported .. boy, we’ve plenty of our own home grown types that are worse influences than Justin is,” he said.
But he added that, while young celebrities have always gone off the rails, social media means that every mis-step is played out under an unrelenting public spotlight.
“Hollywood stars back in the golden age of Hollywood, they were getting into trouble all over the place. The studios were normally able to squelch it, they knew reporters, had little deals here and there.
“That’s impossible now. These stories are going to get out,” he said.
Celebrity news site TMZ reported Bieber wants to move out of his gated community — where Jackson’s family also lives — to an area where there are no “rules and regulations and nosy neighbors.”
Whatever happens, the story will inevitably run and run. “You couldn’t write a better drama. There is innocence. There is pathos. There is suspense. There is tragedy,” said the Globe and Mail.

Justin Bieber: Alleged assault on Toronto limo driver triggered by radio volume argument, report say

Justin Bieber’s alleged assault of a Toronto limo driver on Dec. 30 was reportedly triggered by the not-loud-enough volume of the vehicle’s radio, according to TMZ.

The American news outlet reports that Bieber’s people wanted the volume turned up higher as he cruised the Toronto entertainment district with an entourage.

The driver obliged, but just to a point.

When he wouldn’t turn it any louder, things got ugly, according to TMZ.

Meanwhile, in other Bieber news, a female Miami police officer finds herself under investigation after reportedly trying to take a photo of Bieber while he was under arrest in Florida last week for drag racing.

Making the drag racing incident more bizarre, there’s no evidence that he was actually racing, according to records TMZ claims to have obtained.

Miami police have already subpoenaed a video from TMZ which they suspect might show the former Stratford, Ont., resident racing.

The rented Lamborghini is capable of cheek-popping speeds, but it reached a maximum of only 71 km/h, according to the U.S. news outlet.

But Miami Police say he was clocked at speeds between 88-97 km/h.

He has pleaded not guilty to DUI, resisting arrest, and driving without a licence in relation to the incident.

If Bieber’s rattled, then he’s apparently cooling his nerves in the entertainment district of Toronto, as some media reports have him at Switch Nightclub, near King St. E. and Church St., until the wee hours of Friday.

Meanwhile, an American petition to have him deported continues to swell. It’s now at 138,000 signatures.

The White House must give a reply to any petition with more than 100,000 names.

UK-based model insists her twins are Davido’s babies

Music superstar, Davido might just be fathering a set of twins soon if the claims of a certain UK based model, Sunshine Haye are anything to go by.

The 23 year old hair model, Haye who claimed she will be having a set of twins in a few months, says she was impregnated by Davido. 

The UK-based beauty Queen who is half Caribbean and half Jamaican has claimed she hooked up with Davido during his UK tour in 2013. She is said to be about 4/5 months pregnant.

She has even gone to decorate a nursery for the babies – their room is Disney themed, and has already picked out names for her unborn children.

Reacting to the report however, Davido’s manager denied any knowledge of her allegations.

My Greater Disappointment with today’s Nollywood— Clarion Chukwurah

Two years ago, ageless beauty and veteran actress, Clarion Chukwurah took a break from acting to tour three countries following her position as a special UN peace envoy. She’s back in the country and upon her return, she bagged a prestigious award in recognition of her contribution towards the development of the Nigerian film industry.But in spite of all these, Chukwurah still feels disappointed with a lot of things happening in the industry. She bares her mind on the issues.
You recently won ‘Legends of Nollywood’award. How do you feel being recognised as a legend in the industry?
I was on location in Enugu when the award was held and as you can see, ‘Best Female Act, Mirror in the Sun, Clarion Chukwurah’. The award was received on my behalf by my publicist, Cornell Udofia. This award is yearly organised by Paul Obazele’s company, Royal Pictures. Frank Rajah, I think was part of it as well as Zack Orji and many others. I appreciate the award having been given this recognition for the role I played in the now rested ‘Mirror in the Sun.’ But I think that the name of the award and the work for which it was given is rather misplaced.
That is because the award is called, ‘Legends of Nollywood’. Nollywood is today’s euphemism for the Nigerian film industry. ‘Mirror in the Sun’ was the second national network soap opera. It was a television drama. I understand that before the award was held, AMP president,Mr. Zik Zulu Okafor and other stakeholders celebrated Nollywood at 20, which witnessed an award ceremony called Legends of Nollywood Awards.
They honoured those whom they considered as foremost actors and cinematographers in the industry.
However, when Paul Obazele set out to hold his own Legends of Nollywood award, he gave people the impression that he was going to correct the anomalies. I was expecting Zik Zulu’s ‘Legends of Nollywood’awards to honour actors, producers, directors, cinematographers who have made their marks dating back to late 1950s, till the advent of the new Nollywood. That was my expectations.
They actually wanted to give me an award for ‘Koko Close’, a TV drama I did in Ibadan while I was an undergraduate in the University of Ife. I was surprised, you are talking about ‘Legends of Nollywood’ and you are giving me an award for a role I played in a TV drama. Are you not confused here? I expected to see the likes of Chief Hubert Ogunde being given a posthumous award, MKO Abiola who was the first Nigerian business mogul to sponsor a multi million Naira technicolour Nigerian film titled ‘Bisi Daughter of the River’.
I was expecting to see Kunle Afolayan received a posthumous award on behalf of his father, Sunday Omobolanle’s (Aluwe) first wife stepping out to an award on behalf of her father, Moses Olaiya, Jeta Amata mounting the stage to pick an award on behalf of his grand father.
That was what I expected to see at the ‘Legend of Nollywood’ awards. But whilst Zik Zulu and his partners deliberately refused to recognise that there was a film industry before the production of teh movie, ‘Living in Bondage’, Obazele’s faction proved themselves more ignorant by lumping TV and everything together.
They are two different things. I think it’s high time, the Nollywood practitioners should stop feigning ignorance and face the truth that before Jesus Christ, there was Abraham. Before Nollywood, there was a Nigerian film industry and that is the main reason Nollywood is stagnant today. That is why Nollywood is not growing. If a child doesn’t recognise his mother, how can he grow? If you don’t know where you are coming from, how would you know here you are going to?
No doubt, you are a legend in the Nigerian motion picture industry. What’s the difference between Nollywood of yesteryears and today’s Nollywood?
It hasn’t improved at all. It is now a proverbial ‘ state’ that makes one to weep. Everything has fallen to a disgraceful state. No standards are left. I was on a location in Enugu last month and the production manager was insulting the director of photography. I was shocked.
The producer and the director were shouting at each other. I could not imagine it. The artistic director would just walk away and actors are not directed on what to do. Any greenhorn could hit the set and believe that she could sleep her way to the top. She is pretty and sleeps with the Executive Producer. It’s just sickening. And they say to you, this movie is meant for the market and the cinema. It is not for film festival, just do it anyhow because this is for inside the market. That goes to show there are no standards. It is pathetic.
We didn’t see much of you last year in the movies?
I was out of the country for two years. I came back in May last year and I shot my very first movie in the same month. I shot about six movies from May through December 15th when I returned to my home. Those movies were, Last Family Reunion, That Fateful Night, Hustlers, The God of the Ghetto and Apaye, Land of Canaan.
Why did you travel abroad for two years?
I was appointed a United Nations international special peace envoy on international peace day at the ECOWAS building in Abuja. I had two years to travel to three countries in the course of my NGO because I was given that appointment in recognition of my NGO, Clarion Chukwurah Initiative International.
We have been dealing with women and children. More over, I worked in Kenya, Tanzania and Los Angeles. In those two years, I was travelling from Kenya to Tanzania and LA.
It was wonderful.
For me, I have achieved something that gives me a deep sense of satisfaction, a feeling that I have an edge above all this issue of fame. I have risen above all that. In Kenya, my initiative was supporting this community school in a slum called Soweto Kayole in Nairobi. When I started working in that community, I encountered school children who are fatherless and whose mothers are HIV/AIDS patients. I had about 50 of them, but before the end of October 2012, the number increased to 350 children. They increased when they heard I had a daily feeding programme for the children.
They also had no clothes. I put uniform on the back of every kid and sandals on their feet. We had environmental sanitation, health aids and collaborating with the UN Habitat and the Rotary. I am a member of the rotary club of Nairobi. The bulk of the members are non Africans- Italians, Americans, British and others.
They were bringing support to help teach these children and of course, the Redeemed Christian Church of God, East Africa, a section of which I am a member. Even when Daddy Adeboye came for the East Africa convention, he saw my work and commended it. Mummy G.O. also prayed for me.
For their mothers, we taught them about basic personal and environmental hygiene. We built toilets, cleared gutters and taught them how to protect themselves against sex related diseases. We also put them on drugs for HIV AIDS. Because the UN headquarters is there, there are a lot of bodies to collaborate with for an NGO like mine which is recognised. We started skill acquisition.
In Los Angeles, I got support from the Church of Science in Hollywood to produce some episodes on women empowerment and women related issues in terms of what is happening in the Caribbean were men are killing their wives and girlfriends. It happens in Kenya. The idea is to bring these issues to the fore what African heritage men are doing to their women so that we can look at these issues and find a way to re-orient the women on how to handle them.
We also reached out to the men to learn to handle things differently and this we sent to the TV. The initiative representative in Canada, Nicola Rodney came to the state for this programme so that she could take it back for informative training to impact on the lives of women in the Caribbean especially in Guyana.
This is an era where actors and actresses are producing their own movies; do you have plans to go into movie production?
I do have plans for that but I don’t want to look at it as producing my movies. I intend also to do a lot of collaborations. I talked about how things are.
I intend to work in and outside the mainstream Nollywood world and to collectively move Nollywood forward.
What is the way forward?
The mainstream Nollywood world is the one that caters for the populace, not necessarily the cinema movies. And with the new distribution channel that is coming, the important thing is for the professionals to come into it and not say we can’t relate with this people. In order to make things right, you have to go back in there with a determination to make things right.
You are still looking beautiful after putting in several years in the movie industry. What’s the secret of your ageless looks?
The secret is discipline. You have to be as my son Brian would say wellness freak. You have to know when to exercise. You have to know the importance of water, eating the right things. It is about healthy living, healthy eating.
Aside movie making and your NGO, what else do you do?
I have a clothing line. I still have the C3. We have a partner outlet in Toronto, Kenya and the UK. We are doing well by God’s grace.
Are you not thinking of marriage?
Give me a break. Please don’t ask. Don’t go there. Please spare me.

Modeling for Lady Gaga was amazing —Nigeria-born UK Model

ADVERTISEMENT

Oni Oladimeji was the first runner up at the 2013 edition of the UKTop Model. The model, in this interview with Doyin Adeoye, spoke about his fashion preferences, career and style, among other things.
Foray into modeling…
I had always had the passion for modeling and that basically started a long time ago, but because of some restraining factors here in Nigeria, I had to subdue the passion. But I remember ever since I was at the university, around 2010, my friends used to tell me of how good my body looked and how I could make a career in modeling, but I never gave it much thought. It was not until I got in contact with Mon Ami, the prominent Nigerian fashion designer, that I began to see it as a major career. He groomed and encouraged me into the modeling field. He taught me about perseverance, which is important in this line of profession. I was serving then in Abeokuta, Ogun State, so I used to shuttle between there and Lagos, following him to shows and it was a really good experience.

Modeling in the UK…
I travelled to the UK for my Masters after I finished my National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) programme and I remember initially when I got there, I still had the same mentality I had from Nigeria, that it wouldn’t be easy to get an equal chance with the models there. But I got triggered one day as I was shopping online for some wears; I saw these perfect blazers on a mannequin and I looked at its structure and it struck me that I could do such as well. So I went online and surfed for modeling agencies and after I got one, I did some photo shoots and later  I had the opportunity to work with a marketing company, the N2O Experiential Marketing Company, UK, which created a platform for me to model at some shows, as a promo model and a brand ambassador.

Modeling for Lady Gaga…
While at the company, I got an opportunity to represent one of their models, Lady Gaga, to work in Sheffield as an in-store model, to boost and create awareness about her brand; her perfume known as Fame. It was an amazing three-day modeling platform, because the people there were very nice and welcoming. They came into the store everyday to the extent that we ran out of stock of the product. So it was really amazing modeling for Lady Gaga.

Other brands you represent...
I also worked as a brand ambassador for The Links body spray, as well as a brand ambassador for some Unilever products, such as Dove and some of their other products. I was also a rigger for Toni and Guy at Boots Store, Wolverhampton, where we put in place the necessary rigging equipment in store to facilitate the demonstration of their hairstyling products.

UKTop Model experience…
The experience was awesome. We were chosen after some auditions and thereafter, we went for the opening ceremony in Soho, London, where we showcased ourselves and met with other models.  The event was held on April 20, 2013 at the Hilton London Metropole Hotel. It was the grand finale; the men’s category of the competition and we had the opportunity to meet with different designers from different countries and it was really a good time for me.

Emerging as a winner...
I never thought I would be part of the winners. The winner was from Italy, while the second runner up was from Britain. I was the only Nigerian in the category and I remember that while at the back stage, as everyone was admiring the Italian’s effort for winning, my number was called as the first runner-up and I didn’t even realise that was me until it was called for about three times. So it came as shock, but I felt elated.

Platforms it exposed you to...
There were so many benefits that were supposed to come out of it, had it been I stayed back in the UK, but I couldn’t. If I had, I would have been able to use the platform to pursue other things, but I wasn’t chanced to stay longer.

Education background…
I attended Doland International School and Rose International School, both in Akute, Ogun State, for my primary school education. Then I proceeded to the Lagos State Model College, Badore, for my secondary school education and then to the University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, where I studied Crop Protection. Then I went ahead to Coventry University, London, for a Master in International Business.
How Nigerian modeling industry can be improved...
Unlike the UK, where there are lot of companies and modeling agencies online for you to work with, the reverse is the case here in Nigeria. Back in the UK, you can get contracts to work for some brands once your profile is put out there and I think that is a very good way to encourage and promote aspiring models. Also the Nigerian industry focuses more on female models, which I feel if such attention was also paid on the male counterparts, would go a long way in helping. Even Nigerian designers work more on female clothings than the males, with 80 per cent of the industry focusing on the females and 20 per cent on the males. So if this can be addressed, then it would get better.

Definition of style…
Style is your personality. If your personality is not into your line of style, then people would know that you are only trying to create what is not within you. But if you bring in your own personal style, probably in the way you talk, walk or dress, then that would define you. So basically, style, to me, is the way you do your things. Then style has to do with your personal grooming; the way you look and compose yourself. Personally, a driving force for me is ‘never forget yourself when you are out there. Present yourself in a way that gets you noticed.’ So I would say the definition of style is to stay well, stay fit, stay nice.

What makes a good outfit...
Well, my response to that is quite funny. My favourite guy in every movie I’ve seen is Harvey Specter in the series, Suits. The role was played by Gabriel S. Macht and I really loved his personal grooming. He was always looking so good and his carriage and everything about him was a perfect blend. He dressed as if the outfits were personally made for him. So to answer your question, every outfit he wore in that movie was a good one.


Besides modeling, what else do you do?
I’m a businessman and that is basically what I’m doing now.

Favourite accessory?
That would be my perfume. The truth is UK changed a lot about me. If someone had told me before I travelled that I would spend as much as N5, 000 on a perfume, I probably wouldn’t have believed it. But my mentality changed over there. So the perfume I use is Amouage Memoir, which goes for about 200 pounds.

Kim Kardashian Suffers Wardrobe Malfunction, Has "Anxiety" Finding New Outfit.

Fashion crisis! Right before Kim Kardashian was set to appear on The Ellen DeGeneres, she suffered a major wardrobe malfunction. In a panic, the 33-year-old reality star took to Instagram to share photos of possible sexy replacement outfits to wear instead.

PHOTOS: Stars' most embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions

"OMG my dress for Ellen just broke!!!" she wrote on Thursday, Jan. 16. "I have to leave in 5mins . . . I need help! Should I wear this???" Kardashian shared a photo of herself trying on an ultra low-cut white top and long curve-hugging tan skirt. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star posted a front and side view of the look and struck a fierce pose.

PHOTOS: Kim Kardashian's post-baby body style

Shortly after -- even with the apparent rush -- Kardashian posted a second photo of her final pick. "Ok found my look! Thank God!" she wrote. "I ran out of time . . . off to the taping #phew #thedrama #anxiety."

The fashionista settled on the same white top, but changed her skirt to a similar but shorter style. She posted a front and side view again of her outfit while posing with a very serious expression for the camera.

PHOTOS: North West's fabulous life

Kardashian had a big smile on her face, however, once she arrived on set to The Ellen DeGeneres Show. During her interview with host Ellen DeGeneres, Kardashian gushed about her fiance Kanye West and 7-month-old daughter, North, and shared an adorable new baby photo.

"She changes all the time," the new mom said of her baby girl. "One day she'll look like Kanye, one day she'll look like me. It's so crazy. And her personality is so cute. She is really calm and really quiet."

On the Scene at the Oscars nominations announcement

It’s Oscar nomination day, and for movie nerds, it’s like Christmas morning. Like Santa and his sleigh, we eagerly await the announcement of the year’s Oscar nominees. Who will get snubbed? Who will be surprised? Fans across the country can watch the nominations announced live either online or on some TV outlets. But what’s it like to actually be at the Academy on a morning like this? EW was on the scene (before the sun) to be there for the 5:38 a.m. PT air time. The room is full of press and publicists there to support their clients or films, hoping to hear their names called.

The Academy and producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron announced that this year’s Oscar telecast would have a movie hero theme, so the lobby of the Samuel Goldwyn Theatre in Beverly Hills was filled with images and video clips of some heroic characters from past Oscar films. Everyone from Shrek to Superman to Thelma and Louise were represented. Publicists can be overheard pre-congratulating each other on such a great year for film. “Just hoping the best for everybody. There are just so many films, so many actors,” one was overheard saying. Soon, the friendly smiles turned to focused concentration once the theater opened. As you can expect, there’s a lot of security for an event like this, to make sure the nominees stay secret and in the right person’s hands. Once inside the theater, Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs coyly announced that we had our own superhero among us to help announce the nominees: Thor himself, Chris Hemsworth. Here is what went down during the 12 categories they announced live:

Best Supporting Actor
Barkhad Abdi, the breakout star of Captain Phillips, received a warm reception when he was the first name called for the morning. One publicist was heard whispering “wow” after his name. An Oscar nomination is a pretty impressive thing for a film debut. However, there was an even bigger reaction for Jonah Hill, who was definitely a surprise in the category for Wolf of Wall Street. Jared Leto, who just won a Golden Globe for Dallas Buyers Club, received an applause after his name was announced.

Supporting Actress
Blue Jasmine actress Sally Hawkins, the first name in the category, received the warmest response, probably because she was the least expected nominee in the category. I’m still trying to process not hearing Oprah’s name this morning.

Original Song
Some really big responses in this category. One person screamed with enthusiasm when the song “Alone Yet Note Alone” was nominated from the film of the same name. Also “Happy” from Despicable Me 2 by Pharrell Williams and “Ordinary Love” from Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom by U2 received very warm responses. I’m happy to see a full category here again and the potential for great performances, but the real question remains: Will Idina Menzel or Demi Lovato sing Frozen‘s hit “Let It Go” now that is was also officially nominated?

Adapted Screenplay
Also a lot of reaction for this category, specifically for Before Midnight, Philomena, and The Wolf of Wall Street. The latter reaction was the beginning of a strong showing of support for Scorsese’s controversial film.

Original Screenplay
Huge cheers from one section for the Dallas Buyers Club nomination.

Animated Feature
A respectful acknowledgement for The Wind Rises, Hayao Miyazaki’s last film, took over part of the crowd and some surprised reactions for Despicable Me 2 getting nominated, perhaps over Disney’s Monsters University. Disney still has a good shot to take the prize home with Frozen, though, and The Wind Rises was produced by Disney as well.

Documentary Feature
Really big response for 20 Feet From Stardom, which was the last film announced. Many people were immediately surprised by the snub of the anti-Sea World doc Blackfish.

Director
The biggest response was for Alexander Payne and Martin Scorsese, even though Alfonso Cuaron got some applause. It seemed Payne and Scorsese were more of a surprise to everyone.

Best Actress
Biggest shock was Emma Thompson was missing, and it wasn’t realized right away. A couple of publicists were heard laughing, almost in fear of the strong category, one saying, “Oy, tough one,” after Meryl Streep’s name was announced.

Best Actor
Again, what a morning! A quiet hush took over the room before this one, because everyone knew this was THE one that, no matter what, people would be upset. It seemed almost instantly people knew things were going to be crazy when Christian Bale was the first name announced, alphabetically of course. Leo received a little bit of applause, but the clear favorite in the room for the category was the last name called, Matthew McConaughey. Lots of Dallas Buyers Club support overall.

Best Picture
The holy grail. Now that there can be anywhere from five to 10 nominees, you never know when they are going to stop with this one, so you really have to be paying attention. Big cheers were especially given for Dallas Buyers Club, Her, Philomena, and, again, The Wolf of Wall Street.

Ellen DeGeneres hosts the 86th Academy Awards on Sunday, March 2, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on ABC.

Beyonce And Solange Celebrated Tina Knowles’ 60th Birthday With A Flaw-Free Masquerade Ball

When they’re not busy slaying the music game dead, sisters Beyoncé andSolange apparently double as party planners! (What, didn’t you see that private zoo blowout mama Bey threw for Blue Ivy’s 2nd birthday?)

This time, family matriarch Tina Knowles got the royal b’day treatment. And, based on the photos Bey just shared on her Tumblr, it was QUITE the masquerade-themed New Orleans bash the Knowles sibs threw for their mama last Saturday.Before we get into the party deets, can we just wish Ms. Tina Knowles  a happy belated 60th? (Her actual birthday was on Jan. 4, FYI.) Not only did the woman give birth to Beyoncé, give birth to Solange, and design some of Destiny’s Child’s most ICONIC matching outfits, but Tina manages to look more stunning in a ballgown than most people half her age could ever dream. EVERYBODY #BOWDOWN.

Anyway, some highlights from the event: Mama Tina arrived in — brace for it — a horse-drawn carriage. Like Cinderella! And, word on the street is that a video montage coordinated by family and friends played on a big screen. #Emotional #JustLikeABatMitzvah

This photo of Bey dancing with her nephew, Juelz, is like one swift kick to the ovaries.

Famous guests included Jay Z (OBVS), Kelly Rowland, Jennifer Hudson, Big Freedia, Kris Jenner, and Kendall Jenner, who were all decked out in full masquerade regalia!

Legit, this whole shindig sounds like the picture-perfect birthday party, thrown by picture-perfect daughters. The only thing that mayyyyybe could’ve made the party better would be if proud Grandma Tina had gotten to party the night away with little Blue Ivy.

Then again, Blue was probably off somewhere getting her beauty sleep, safely nestled in a cashmere blanket in a diamond-encrusted crib. But, that sounds like a bomb night as well!

Justin Bieber will star in ‘Expendables 4’

The Biebs is taking his bad boy behavior to the big screen! Justin is set to star alongside the great Sylvester Stallone in the upcoming movie ‘The Expendables 4’, according to a new report. ‘That is for real,’ ‘Expendables’ actor Terry Crews promises.

Justin Bieber is coming soon to a theater near you! The Biebs has reportedly landed a role alongside Sylvester Stallone in the latest installment of The Expendables, which will most likely be released by the summer of 2016. Do you think Justin will be a good addition to the film?

One of the stars of the action-packed franchise unexpectedly let the exciting news about Justin, 19, slip to a reporter during the Audi Golden Globes Celebration in Hollywood, Calif. on Jan. 12.

 “The next one, I am telling you, Justin Bieber is coming for ‘The Expendables 4,’” actor Terry Crews told Confidenti@l.

“That is for real, Bieber in ‘Expendables 4,’” Terry added. ”We are going to shoot him all at the same time. It will be wonderful.” The Expendables 4 is expected to film scenes in Bulgaria and will most likely be released by the summer of 2016.

Hopefully Justin will be able to clean up his act by the time filming begins!

As HollywoodLife.com previously reported, Justin could be charged with a felony after he allegedly egged his neighbor’s home on Jan. 9.

Officials at the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department believe they’ve got Justin this time. They’re certain that security video evidence of the egging in action, along with proof that it caused extensive damage, will be enough to pin him — and possibly even put him behind bars.

Beyonce’s fans

(ThyBlackMan.com) If you haven’t heard, (unless you’ve lived under a rock,) Beyonce shocked the music world by releasing her self-titled fifth album Beyoncé  via iTunes in December. As expected, her fans not only bought the album, but showered their grace upon their female messiah. And if you’re wondering, there are men out here who worships the ground she walks on. Yes, it’s that serious, folks. If her following was just a large group, now it’s a full-blown cult. With that said, it brings great shame that Beyoncé is under fire for having a photo on Instagram where it looks like she is replacing Jesus Christ on The Last Supper.

Why great shame? Because we acted like a day like this wouldn’t come. The media acted oblivious to this, too.  And of course, they now are sayingBeyoncé has taken it too far, even though they are mainly responsible for the gravy train. But if thrusting their anger and shock at Bey is their way to go, someone please point them to the nearest Beytree and show them where her Beyhives live.

Beyonce and her fan base is perhaps the equivalent to the perception of Ohio State fans (how do I know? Because I am an Ohio State fan.)  Loud, obnoxious, can’t tell us nothing, and extremely loyal. Sadly, saying anything bad about Beyonce is considered “blasphemous” as plenty have defended her on my Facebook. While the outrage given by the media is justifiable, they can’t act like they didn’t partially play a pivotal role in this. It’s impossible to overlook that if a celebrity gets enough false propaganda they, too, will believe they are past the wheeling’s and dealings of being human. 

Once the celebrity believes it, it’s pretty much a done deal.  See: Kanye West, R. Kelly, the great Michael Jackson and any other major superstar. If I was with Beyoncé, I’d at least tell her (or whoever is handling her social media accounts) that maybe that post is a bad idea. But like most celebrity’s with entourages, usually it’s a “my way or the highway” type thing. Not saying it is, but her post may point in that direction. Of course, her fans bit the bullet and increased their worship of the singer. Of course, they are also were making excuses that people are going over their heads.

But let’s be real; the principle reason she can get away with a lot of things such as this Instagram post is because of the way her fans treat her as a God. Let a friend from high school or their neighbor down the street have people calling them a god or take a picture in front of the last supper and let’s see how many upsetting social media posts we will view. Let’s see how many times people would negatively scathe or demean that person cause of people calling them a god.

Yet, Beyonce, one of the entertainment world’s most politically-correct, carefully marketed stars in history is frequently called Bey-sus, King Bey, and is given a pass. It’s cool to think highly of someone, even an entertainer. But when the entertainer begins to smell themselves and do technically politically incorrect things with excuses from the fans, then you know it’s a problem with many roots.

So, no. I don’t blame Beyonce; even though I’m no fan of her at all (I like some of her music, though.) I think the perception of Beyonce is based mainly on propaganda; to be flawless, and her latest Instagram post exemplifies that. Is it her fault? No, but is it the fans fault for securely buying into an image, while forgetting the basis of common sense? Damn right. Contrary to popular belief, Beyonce is a human like us, too. 

Police investigate Kanye West for possible battery

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. -- Beverly Hills police say they're investigating Kanye West for misdemeanor battery after a man accused the rapper of attacking him.

Sgt. George DeMarois says several witnesses identified West as being involved in an altercation around 12:15 p.m. on Monday at an office on exclusive Wilshire Boulevard. The rapper had left the premises by the time officers arrived.

Police said Tuesday they weren't releasing further details and Blair Berk, an attorney representing West in another case, declined comment.

West was charged last year with misdemeanor battery and attempted grand theft after a fight with a photographer at Los Angeles International Airport. He's pleaded not guilty in the case.

The photographer has sued West for assault and battery. West's attorneys stated that West was in fear for his safety.

Young Jeezy charged with beating teen son

(CNN) -- Rapper Young Jeezy allegedly beat up his teenage son and threatened to kill him during an argument 15 months ago.

Jeezy -- whose real name is Jay Wayne Jenkins -- was released on a $45,000 bond on Friday, hours after turning himself into the jail on a grand jury warrant, Fulton County, Georgia, sheriff's spokesman Tracy Flanagan said.

The 36-year-old artist is set to appear in an Atlanta court on January 29 on felony charges of battery, terroristic threats and false imprisonment, Flanagan said.

His son told police the alleged incident at this Atlanta apartment in September 2012 "stemmed from a text message he sent to his father."

His father "walked into the bathroom where he was and slammed his head against the sliding shower door," then "picked him up and threw him into the wall in the bedroom," the police report said.

When the teen tried to run downstairs and away, he was blocked by his father's bodyguard, the report said.

Jeezy then "pulled him back into the room, threw him on the bed, choked him and stated 'I'll kill you," the son told police. He then allegedly threw him against a wall and onto the floor before kicking him in the head.

"The juvenile stated his father stated to him 'I'll put a bullet in your head right now,'" the report said.

The boy's mother called police two days later when her son returned to her and she noticed bruising and scratches on his face," the police report said.

'I've earned the right to be me': Beyoncé opens up about being vulnerable and stripping off for her sexy song Rocket

Beyoncé's been in show business almost her entire life – starting out at nine and putting out her first album as a part of Destiny’s Child at age 15. 

She always felt she could not quite venture out on a limb and express the full breadth of her soul – so mindful of her audiences. 

‘Now I'm in my 30s, and those children that grew up listening to me have grown up, and I always felt like it was my responsibility to be aware of kids and their parents and all these generations,’ the 32-year-old singer says in the fifth installment of her documentary, entitled Self-Titled Part 5. Honesty.

‘And I felt like, in a sense, I could not express everything. I've done so many things in my life, in my career, that I feel like at this point I've earned the right to be me and to express any and every side of myself.’

Thus in her latest album, ‘The glue that ties this record together is honesty,’ the Crazy in Love singer, who wears a simple white T-shirt and denim shorts, states at the beginning of the video. 

Her rawness and passion shine through in clips from her black and white video for Rocket, featuring a lingerie clad Beyoncé lying down, then standing tall at the edge of her bed, relaxing by a kitchen sink, and then lying atop a car, lighting up a cigarette.

What I love about this song is, it takes you through this journey,' she says, as clips of the racy video are shown. ‘You're flirting and you're talking all of your arrogant s***. Then you climax, and then you have your cigarette.’

But it’s got a deeper meaning for her. 

‘This song actually is about singing from the heart, and harmonies and adlibs and arrangement,’ Beyoncé says. 

The Houston native relished the collaborative process that her latest album entailed.

‘How willing all these incredible artists were to write together,’ she says, as the featurette cuts to her working at the piano.

The Single Ladies singer’s vulnerability has definitely paid off – selling 1.3 million copies of her latest self-titled album in its first 17 days of release in the United States and remaining at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for the third week in a row, according to Billboard. 

Beyoncé is the first album by a woman to notch three weeks at number one since Taylor Swift’s Red claimed seven weeks at the top (non-consecutively) in late 2012 and early 2013.

It is the first album since 2009 to sell more than 300,000 copies in each of its first three weeks. 

‘I don't think I would've done it, you know, back then,' Beyoncé says of putting out such a personal project. 

‘I don't think I would've been confident enough. I would've been too afraid of what other people thought, but I kinda dropped that fourth wall and I did it.

‘I feel like I'm having to tap into a lot of my life experiences to pull inspiration,' Jay Z's other half continues, ‘and I feel like I'm opening up a lot in these videos and showing a lot of sides to me that only a few people have ever seen.

She’s finally letting the world get a feel for the all the dimensions of who she is. 

‘At the end of the day, I think all of us want happiness and joy and we want to be able to be ourselves and our best selves,’ Beyoncé says.

‘And sometimes you have to take the good with the bad. Sometimes you have to take the insecurities to get to the secure place. And all of those things I feel happy to express and share.
