*Alec Baldwin*
It has been said that the police got a call from the actor’s daughter saying that her father threatened to take pills in a suicide attempt.
Word from his rep: “This was a misunderstanding on one person’s part. Alec was quickly released from the hospital he’s completely fine and will be at work today.”
Word from Perez Hilton: “We understand Alec has issues and that his divorce was a big hot mess, but he really needs to work on leaving his 14-year-old daughter out of it! We have a feeling a lot of his anger is directed toward his ex-wife Kim Basinger and as for Ireland, she shouldn’t have to deal with this kinda BS at her age and from her father no less! Get it together, Alec!”
*Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie*
For the love birds Brad and Angie, Valentine’s day was worth everything. Angie wanted to show just how much it meant to her by purchasing Brad a 200 year old olive tree for their home in France- costing her close to $24, 000!
Word from their source: “Angelina bought it from a nursery called The English Garden Centre in Val Bonne near their house. It’s a very special tree and cost her a fortune.”
Word from Perez Hilton: “Olive trees generally symbolize peace, longevity, and stability. We assume she’s attempting to make it very clear to the universe that Brangelina isn’t ending anytime soon! Happy Valentine’s Day, MANiston!!”
*Alicia Keys*
It has been said that Alicia Keys is secretly engaged to her producer boyfriend Swizz Beats. But um; isn’t he still going through a divorce with his wife Mashonda? Well, guess no one really cares about that anymore. Her rep is denying the whole thing, but someone else seems to think differently.
Word from a Pal: “She is thrilled. She is with the man who has inspired so much of her music and her new album [The Element of Freedom].”
Word from Perez Hilton: Congratulations!
*Beyonce*
Well, Beyonce just can’t dodge the lawsuits can she? First the House of Dereon gets sued; now Sony gets sued for supposedly wearing an unauthorized copy of Bulgarian designer Iskren Lozanvo’s lingerie in her Video Phone music video.
Word from Sony: “the design was inspired by Picasso and any other similarities are just coincidence.”
Word from Perez Hilton: “We do see a lot of similarities especially in the glasses and the bangles. And considering that Iskren’s design was showcased on September 23 in Milan, which was BEFORE the premiere of the video, Sony has a lot of explaining to do. What do U think? Coincidence or deliberate copy???”
It’s so sad to hear that some people just don’t know how to act. The American Idol winner received a hate-filled letter with many racial slurs, demanding that she go back to where she came from and die. The person sending the letter claims to be a security guard from the Idol show.
Word from Fantasia: “I have smartly beefed up with security and I will not be defeated by what this person is trying to say or do to me.”
Word from Perez Hilton: Stay safe, girlie!
*Jay Z*
The rapper told the Brits that he would like to collaborate with Lilly Allen for the Wireless Festival.
Word from Jay Z: “I spoke to Lily Allen. I’m trying to get her for Wireless. Hopefully that goes through. I had to bum-rush them in the corner where they can’t say no. I know her for a minute (sic). I think she’s a great artist. I respect her. We just haven’t (collaborated) yet.”
Word from Perez: Bah! Not interested! Are U?
*Johnny Depp*
He recently revealed that his two kids Lily-Rose and Jack love their dad’s iconic title role in Tim Burton’s Edward Scissorhands.
Word from Johnny Depp: “It’s funny because they’ve seen it but they have a difficult time watching it because it’s their dad and they make that connection, but it’s Edward Scissorhands. That’s by far my kids’ favorite. They just connect with the character and also they see something, their dad feeling that isolation, feeling that loneliness. He’s a tragic character and so I think it’s hard for them. They bawl when they see that movie.”
Word from Perez: Awww! So emotional! He seems like a very sweet father, don’t U think?
*Nightmare on Elm Street*
The latest revamping of the Wes Craven horror classic, A Nightmare on Elm Street, is hitting theaters April 30, and we’re cautiously optimistic that it’s not going to suck!! BloodyDisgusting.com was invited to the set to watch Freddy Krueger, played now by Oscar-nominee Jackie Earle Haley, seriously mess up Ella, played by Katie Cassidy from Melrose Place, while she sleeps.
Word from Katie: “I did have a stunt double, but for the most part I wanted to do as much as I possibly could. The physicality of it, it was hard being on a harness and being thrown around the room, jerked up and down, and being slashed in the chest. The blood was everywhere; it was pretty emotionally and physically draining. Though, I look back and I’m sure it is going to look amazing, I mean we saw this reel and it just all made sense to me in my head. I thought, ‘Oh yeah, this is why I am doing this!’ It looked brilliant, just the way he [Sam Bayer] cut it together. I thought this is definitely worth it; I got to go through with it and finish it up without having to give it all to my stunt double. You know, a lot of actors just give it all to the stunt doubles, but I didn’t want to do that. So after the whole thing I was all bruised, and it was physically hard on my body, but it was cool to say these are my battle wounds from my job!”
Word from Producer Brad Fuller: “By the nature of the film, it’s not as bloody as Friday the 13 or The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. This is more of a film that makes you have nightmares and gets under your skin in a real way, and that is what we are going for. Having said that, there is plenty of blood; when people are getting slashed there is blood to be had and we are not skimping on it.”
Word from Perez: Good for her!! We saw some of that in the trailer and it was NUTS. Sounds JUICY!!! We definitely think they took some BOLD creative choices with the story, but we’re DEFINITELY going to check it out - it’s about time someone did a remake, right! What do U think?? Are U excited for the revamped Nightmare??
*Shakira*
Shakira met with President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden to discuss early childhood development and universal healthcare. They will also be meeting again next week to discuss specific ideas for the Hispanic community in terms of early childhood development programs.
Word from Shakira: “It was such a privilege to sit down with the President in the Oval Office to discuss our shared commitment to education and early childhood development. We agreed that investing in our children is the smartest strategy governments can use to boost economic growth, fight poverty, and promote global security and peace. We will be working closely with the President and his staff to implement his vision—for Latinos, children in the United States, and around the world.”
Word from Perez: Just another reason to love Shaki!
*Snoop Dogg*
Rapper Snoop Dog has not been allowed in the UK since a 2006 scuffle in Heathrow Airport when the rapper was told that his 30+ member entourage would not be allowed to all chill out in the first-class lounge. Snoop used what he admitted to being ‘colorful’ language, police detained the rapper and members of his posse overnight and they were let off with a warning.
Word from Brent Smith of William Morris Endeavor Entertainment LLC: “Snoop has missed out on several arena tour opportunities, many TV and festival opportunities, as well as a few proposed charity events…And now the U.K. taxpayer is financing the court appeals.”
Word from Perez: Good luck!!! What do U think? Should Snoop be allowed in the UK?
*Tiger Woods*
After the paparazzi flooded the scene where his toddler Sam attends day care classes, the Woods felt it was right to apologize to the parents of the children who attend the school.
Letter from the Woods: Dear Premier Academy parents,
We would like to share our appreciation for your support over the past several months and offer our personal apology for any inconvenience you are experiencing due to the increased media scrutiny surrounding our children. We truly understand how frustrating it can be.
We hope that the paparazzi will find something better to do with their time in the near future. In the meantime, it is our goal to keep life as normal as possible for our children. We are sure that as parents you can appreciate that. For Sam, that normalcy means attending the school that she enjoys so much.
Again, we truly appreciate the support from the entire Premier Academy family.
Kind regards,
Elin and Tiger Woods
Words from Perez: Do U think it’s enough?!?
