Bobby Brown: Whitney Houston Looked Great A Week Before Her Death!
May 16th
It’s so surreal knowing one day things can (seemingly) be going perfectly fine, and the next – a loved one is dead.
Whitney Houston‘s death, the two met each other for dinner. Bobby says she looked fantastic, like she was in great spirits.
Bobby also explains why he made the decision to stay and perform in Mississippi the night he got the unfortunate news of her passing.
Press PLAY to watch the somber interview (above)!
Sometimes it’s still mind-boggling that she’s really no longer with us. And sometimes Bobby is just mind-boggling too. Ha!

Everyone’s favorite cheerleading flick is getting ready to Bring It On…to Broadway!
While we saw it in El Lay back in November and thought it was fun and surprisingly very good, Bring It On: The Musical will hit the stage in NYC for a 12-week run this July!
Previews for the musical, inspired by the film Bring It On, will start up on July 12, with it officially opening on August 1 and running through October 7 at the St. James Theatre!
The show will begin on Broadway hot off the heels of its 13 city tour, which wraps June 3, with the cast continuing their touring roles on the big stage!!
When we saw the show, we LOVED Adrienne Warren as Danielle, but for the most part, we think it needs to be mostly recast.

Get your tickets and check out the lighthearted musical that will have you dancing in your seats and singing along!

ANOTHER Man Accuses John Travolta Of Sexual Misconduct
May 16th
Another one!? Are we in the double digits yet?
Either John Travolta needs to learn to keep his hands to himself or he’s walking, talking bullseye for made up sexual harassment allegations!
A new anonymous man has stepped forward to accuse the married actor of sexual misconduct, more specifically, fondling and groping.
The personal trainer says he opened the gym he worked at during hours it was normally closed just so Travolta could get a workout without being disturbed. The Hollywood star apparently repaid him by reaching for his groin, as a source explains:
“The gym was opened as a courtesy to John Travolta so that he could avoid the public yet maintain his fitness in this physically challenging role that he was doing at the time. The gym employee says that John Travolta groped and fondled him against his will.”
Much like the rest of the allegations, we’re sure Marty Singer will deny all claims, but there is no word on whether or not the most recent accuser is sue the actor.
As usual, we’ll let U know what’s up when we know what’s up ourselves!

Jennifer Lopez Dances Again Her Way To Power!
May 16th
Mz. Jennifer Lopez is bringing in the cash and cashing in on this year’s Forbes World’s Most Powerful Celebrities list! But don’t be fooled (by the rocks that she’s got, got) — she’s still Jenny from the block!
From On The 6 to America’s hit TV show, J.Lo tops this year’s list at numero uno, for her “career reincarnation” and for earning $52 million over the last 12 months!!
The annual list is based on money AND fame, with fame being defined as media visibility and social media presence!
While Justin Bieber follows right after the talk show legend, ranking at number 3 and earning $55 million.
Pretty impressive!
Though second (second is the best…?), Oprah STILL ranks as number one in TV/Radio AND in earnings, making $165 million in just this past year!!!
Lady Gaga dropped from number one last year to number five in 2012, making just as much as Lopez.
Newly appointed X Factor mentor, Britney Spears took in $58 mil at number six, though we’re sure the Femme Fatale will get a boost next year after her XF paycheck comes in!
Making only $18 million at number seven? Kim Kardashian! The reality star did, however, come in at number five for TV/Radio.
California Gurl Steven Spielberg takes tenth place.

Andrew Garfield Battling Bronchitis On Broadway
May 16th
Andrew Garfield is battling a nasty bout of bronchitis as he performs in the Broadway revival of Death Of A Salesman.
Hollywood’s new Spider-Man is currently making his New York stage debut in a production of the Arthur Miller classic opposite Philip Seymour Hoffman.
The British actor’s Broadway debut has been marred by sickness but he has refused to cancel a single show.
He tells the New York Times, “I couldn’t (call in sick)… I’d feel much worse missing a performance than doing it while I’m sick.”
The play’s director Mike Nichols has also praised The Social Network star for being so determined, adding, “He can do it because he has an iron will and because he’s an artist.”

Sir Michael Caine ‘locked In Dressing Room’
May 16th
Sir Michael Caine was locked in his dressing room overnight after falling asleep on the set of his new movie, according to a U.K. report.
The Italian Job actor was filming in the Old Loews theater in New Orleans, Louisiana for upcoming thriller Now You See Me when he decided to take a nap in a makeshift dressing room.
But he received a nasty shock when he woke up, as the staff had left for the evening and had locked him in. The nervous actor reportedly shouted for help, and was only rescued when a carpenter heard his cries the following morning.
A source tells Britain’s Daily Mirror, “It had been a long day of filming and Michael decided to slip upstairs to a makeshift dressing area and catch 40 winks. Unfortunately he was asleep for some time and failed to hear directors calling a wrap. Production all assumed he was safely outside in his trailer, and therefore locked up for the night.
“When Michael eventually woke up, he realized he was locked in. His mobile phone was in his trailer and there was no electricity in the attic, meaning he couldn’t see a thing. It was pitch black. Michael started shouting for help but no one could hear him.
“It was only when an on-set carpenter who had left his tools in the theater went to do some maintenance work the following morning that he was discovered. It’s fair to say Michael wasn’t in the best of moods – although he was grateful to have been found.”
A spokesperson for the British actor refused to comment.

Gaga Gig Bosses’ Bid To Overturn Ban
May 16th
Concert bosses in Indonesia are desperately trying to overturn a ban on Lady Gaga performing in the country’s capital city, Jakarta.
The Poker Face hitmaker is faced with the prospect of axing the Indonesian leg of her Born This Way Ball world tour next month after local police revoked her performance license.
It came amid a storm of protest from hardline Muslim groups in the country, who have branded the star the “devil’s messenger” for her raunchy stage routines.
But officials at Big Daddy Live! have reached out to Gaga’s fans, known as ‘little monsters’, urging them to be patient while the company tries to find a way around the ban.
In a message on Twitter.com, a spokesman added, “Still fighting… We want the best for all Little Monsters”, and a representative for the company tells AFP, “We are still in the process of finding a way to do it, and we ask for everyone’s patience and forgiveness for the trouble.”
A spokesman for the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) vowed its members will cause mayhem if the show gets the green light, adding, “If Lady Gaga still wants to perform here, go ahead. But please be prepared for chaos in Jakarta. We are ready to be thrown to jail and be killed – we will do anything to stop it.”
