Mariah Carey is one of those ladies that really seems to show off the vixen no matter what shape or size she is in, and here she is showing off her glorious vixen shape while filming a new music video on the beach in Los Angeles. The Precious pop star oozed nothing but glam as she danced and sang for the camera while wearing a revealing but sexy one piece suit. And though she looks happy and sexy and uber glam right here, we do know that this Precious girl has a little bit of a dark history. She has in the past alluded to a history of abuse, and now it seems that as time passes, she is willing to offer a little more insight into this. She has officially come out admitting she was ”abused” in a relationship, hinting it was at the hands of ex-husband Tommy Mottola. Mariah Carey- who married actor-and-rapper Nick Cannon in 2008 - has spoken out about how she has been affected by the struggle she faced in previous relationships and hinted her ex-husband Tommy Mottola was responsible for her ordeal. On abuse she says,

“Abuse has several categories. Emotionally, mentally, in other ways. I just think you get into a situation and you feel locked in. If your situation is similar to one of the situations I’ve been in, which I won’t harp on. For me, to really get out, it was difficult because there was a connection that was not only a marriage but a business thing where the person was in control of my life.”

Mariah wed music executive Tommy in 1993 after he signed her to the music label CBS Records. They separated just three years later and divorced in 1998. And what has led Mariah to this public admission? The heated case of Rihanna and Chris Brown. The 40-year-old beauty spoke out in support of ‘Rehab’ singer Rihanna, who was assaulted by her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown earlier this year following a pre-Grammy’s party. Mariah flat out admitted she can empathize with the 21-year-old starlet’s experience of domestic abuse. She told TV talk show host Larry King:

“I was very sequestered, as you know, when I first started out and if I were just allowed to be young and with a young boyfriend who’s also a star and you know, you’re working and you’re both ? I don’t know what goes on. You know what I mean? So it’s like, I wasn’t really allowed out of the house, so I can’t imagine what she went through.”

Yes, isolation is definitely a hallmarker of abusers, so we can only hope that any woman connected with the man Mariah is referring to is extremely careful. But what else is Mariah up to, and can we expect more smiles than not in the future? Children may be on the way, as the singer-turned-actress says she is desperate to have children with Nick, but is waiting for a gap in her career.

“Being pregnant would be the happiest thing in my life, but what I’m saying is right now with this movie ‘Precious’ coming out, with the next few singles from the album and those things that I’m doing, I need to focus on that because I cannot do the having-a-child thing halfway.”

And no, when it comes to Mariah, we certainly wouldn’t ask for anything but a job well done, but that’s not something we have to worry about with this one, is it?

The ever so famous Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart certainly do keep us hooked to their sizzling on screen romance, but when it comes to the offscreen day to day grind, they like to keep us guessing as to the next movement in their plotline, as much as they do on the big screen. It seems that nobody really knows what is going on with this couple on screen or off, but one thing we do know is that we love to keep wondering what will come next. Are they or aren’t they together when the cameras stop rolling? They are seen here lighting up San Diego celebrating Moonvember month as they promote the next movie in this series “New Moon” at the Comic Con in San Diego. But what’s the real story? Are they or aren’t they together when the cameras stop rolling? Depends on who you ask it seems, but you sure won’t get a straight answer from either of them.Oh no, of course they aren’t together. They just hug when they think nobody is looking. Not dating? Then how do you explain the HUGS Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were seen engaging in last Friday? Good friend Close Source told Us Weekly that the Twilight co-stars stayed together at celebrity sleepover headquarters the Chateau Marmont on Oct. 29, then headed to a screening of New Moon the next morning. That’s when they were spotted cuddling.

“Rob wanted a cigarette so he went outside with Kristen for about 15 minutes. They were hugging, as Rob was smoking his cigarette and then he leaned down and kissed her on the lips. He had his arm around her almost the whole time.”

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Kristen says she’s deliberately avoiding the question of whether or not they’re together because people are putting too much emphasis on it.

“There’s no answer that’s not going to tip you one way or the other. Think about every hypothetical situation, ‘Okay, we are. We aren’t. I’m a lesbian.’ I’m just trying to keep something.”

Sounds like Kristen is paying some good coin for a publicist, as you can’t get a more elusive or articulate statement than that. And her co star is no different. In an interview with Vanity Fair that was previewed on Monday, Rob maintained that only when he’s pretending to be a vampire is Kristen his girlfriend. Clearly he’s a filthy liar, because he also claimed he can’t get a date. Nevermind that the guy has so many women literally screaming for him that he’s totally over being adored. Speaking about getting clipped by a cab while trying to escape a fan riot this summer, he says he appreciated the incident for the variety.

“If it’s just screaming–and I know this sounds so ridiculous–that gets old. But sometimes when there’s literal chaos, it’s like being in a war zone, and that’s kind of exciting.”

And yet, despite the screaming girls, despite the fan sites, despite his super-embarrassing Robsessed book, he can’t keep a girlfriend. Are we supposed to feel sorry for him? His co-starlet says yes. She says dear Robert has a “fragile ego”. Awwww….and his wallet is too small for his fifties and I bet his diamond shoes don’t fit well either. So when he isn’t talking about how awful he is at acting (good luck with that, Nicole Kidman–she’s starring with him in the sexy historical drama Bel Ami), he’s calling himself “godlike.” That’s right, he doesn’t exactly refer to his ego as fragile in a recent interview with Harper’s Bazaar.

“[My ego] has soared to such peaks, it’s ridiculous. It can get to a point when it’s, like, godlike. Only in my eyes, of course. Sometimes just when I say hello the right way, I’m like, Whoa, I’m so cool.”

Ok, so maybe I’m starting to understand why he’s getting frequently dumped. And maybe that’s why we don’t really know what is going on between him and Kristen, because maybe just maybe she’s a little confused about what the word ‘fragile’ really means.

Sienna Miller is seen here looking cute as ever in a double breasted peacoat and bad hair while out for a walk with her dog Bess. And I guess this laissez faire attitude is supposed to make us forget that she’s a homewrecker of sorts. But what is Sienna doing back in New York City you ask? Well, she is currently in the Broadway production of “After Miss Julie” starring ex-fiance Jude Law’s close friend (Johnny Lee Miller). Law is also starring in a Broadway play of his own which performs only block apart from where Miller’s play takes place. And no, it’s not just youj, this is not the first time that Sienna Miller and Jude Law have been linked, as they have not only a working relationship, but a romantic history as well. And even off screen it sounds like they are still keeping in touch, but just how much so? Since Sienna Miller and Jude Law’s ill-fated engagement of 2004 hit the skids, they’ve shown they just can’t keep away from risky relationships.

Sienna will always remember her affair with married man Balthazar Getty by the giant word “slut” painted on her house. Jude will always remember the child-support payments he owes model Samantha Burke, who bore his fourth child, even if he doesn’t remember who Samantha Burke is. So maybe it was only a matter of time before these danger-seeking daters delved into the most taboo relationship of all. No, not furries. Each other. Both are starring on the aforementioned Broadway right now–Jude in Hamlet, Sienna in After Miss Julie–and the U.K. edition of Ok! reports they’ve been having “secret meetings” (secret, as in Jude’s rep confirmed it). Whether or not they are going home with stage makeup on each other’s collars, we can only speculate. And I speculate that they are. They might as well. They’ve been so dirty with everyone else. So long as they’re together, at least they’re keeping their communicable diseases contained.

It’s been a while since we heard from Kim Kardashian and her pink velour suit, but it seems that’s because her sisters have been fighting over headline real estate by either getting married or pregnant. And so you have to guess that Kim Kardashian, the starlet that started all of this D list fame, might be feeling a little put out by the fact that she hasn’t been making headlines lately. Particularly since she’s the only one that appears to have been in a long term almost conflict free relationship. And if you are guessing this, Kimmy is confirming it. The Kardashian sister admits she thought she was a lock to walk the aisle before Khloe announced her whirlwind wedding. But do not take this to mean that Kimmy is getting married, it is just that according to the murmurs under her breath, she damn well should have been. Kim, the closest thing to a celebrity the Kardashian sisters have, dated her boyfriend, New Orleans Saints player Reggie Bush, for two years. They were in the throes of house-hunting when Kim was blindsided by a split. The Red Cross got involved, there was a celebrity telethon… it was truly a dark day. So when her sister Khloe got married to her boyfriend Lamar Odom, like, immediately, Kim basically felt like the world was punishing her, instead of its usual habit of giving her everything for no reason.

“You know, I was with Reggie for years and Khloe met Lamar like a week before she was getting married. So I was like ‘What is going on?!’ There definitely was a feeling of–not jealousy or anything like that–but a feeling like, ‘Oh my gosh, I thought it was going to be me.’ And that’s just a real, natural feeling.”

Kim and Reggie reportedly broke up because his football schedule kept him either in New Orleans or on the road for the majority of the year, while Kim is in Los Angeles filming Keeping Up With The Kardashians. But someone explained airplanes to them, and they’ve since rekindled their love affair.

“I’m really glad it turned out the way it did and that Reggie and I have gone through what we’ve gone through. I swear it’s so much better and has made us so much stronger as a couple.”

Kim has nothing to worry about. I’m sure Khloe’s divorce will be announced any day now, and that dirty nuptial usurper will be at Kim’s wedding wrestling for the bouquet with the rest of the singletons. Good news for Kim; bad news for single women that don’t want to be trampled by a giantess.

Ah yes, the man that just puts a bad taste in your mouth. Here is Chris Brown exiting Kitchen 24 at 4 AM the other night after reportedly dining with six women. What is more surprising here? That he still looks like a jerk despite his pleas of change, or that there are six women on the planet that would still have dinner with him? And putting food and Chris Brown in the same conversation just doesn’t do me any favors, and I don’t think I am alone here. Anytime there is any conversation about a man hitting a woman, my stomach turns. And Chris Brown creates a reaction in my stomach akin to the Dallas Cowgirls halftime show. But here he is ever the ladies man, but yet he has to know what kind of reaction he puts on the rest of us. Of course he does which is why he STILL can’t get any fame on his own, and still insists on using Rihanna to self promote. Recently, during the wee hours of the morning, singer Chris Brown took to Twitter and posted a YouTube link to a photo montage of himself and Rihanna during happier times.

“I’m sorry y’all. Just had to post it,” was the accompanying text on the tweet, and the post immediately following said, “For the fellas: showing emotion doesn’t make u weak … being honest makes you strong.”

This from the man that beat a woman and practically left her for dead, and thought he was being quite the big strong man at the time. Yeah, I just gotta hunch that aspiring to Chris Brown’s message for being strong just isn’t something I’d recommend putting on the to do list for anyone. But from a legal standpoint? Sending tweets about Rihanna and what happened between them on Feb. 8 doesn’t break any laws (Brown’s stay-away order is still in place; his attorney Mark Geragos didn’t respond to requests for comment on Brown’s Twitter feed). But there’s Awomen for recreation. And all the while he is saying he isn’t using her for promotion, we get his very own follow up with messages about his “I Can Transform Ya” video premiere on MTV planned for Tuesday, and news of his official album date. That tweet specifically included the directive, “Now blog about this … LOL.” So Chris: here’s some blogging about it. Now, how about promoting your work without Rihanna’s help? Or how about not hitting women? Or how about not asking us to make you a hero because you were honest about hitting a woman? How about blogging about that?

We all know that Jennifer Aniston can have any man she wants, well, except one, but I have a hunch she is soooooo over that one. And it can not be a wrong assumption to presume that even she knows she can have any man she wants, so why does it always come out that she is this desperado? Are the rumors true, does she bring it on herself, or are people just being mean? Who knows. Us Weekly seems to think that she just can’t get over Player Mayer in the fast and efficient manner we would all like to see. But as we know, if nothing else, Jennifer Aniston is a creature of habit, so tells us the hairstyle that she has had for about a thousand years. And now, Us Weekly is reporting that she has jumped back into the arms of her on-again-off-again love, musician John Mayer. Says their friend Close Source:

“He’s really got to her, and she’s hooked on him. She just can’t let go.”

Let go Jenny, let go. This is like the romantic equivalent of Groundhog Day. It’s high time she washed that man right out of her albeit unchanging but highly-coveted hair. And if it’s not Player Mayer that she is wanting to crawl back to, Us Weekly is also insinuating that she is trying to make some connections with her ex husband Brad Pitt. The term drinking and dialing was used recently when it was said that she tried to call his cell phone, only to be surprised by his current non-wife but life partner Angelina. After a night of too much Merlot, it seems that Jennifer’s judgement was more than a little clouded and Brad boy got the ol’ ring. But Aniston got the “shock of her life”. Of course Close Source doesn’t know much more than that, but this call may have been pre-empted by news that Pitt and Jolie are not actually living in bliss anyway. Pitt is widely rumoured to be going through problems with Jolie. He was said to summon his ex, Aniston, to his New York hotel suite on a recent trip where he promoted green issues with US President Bill Clinton. Aniston’s representative, however, later denied the report. So who knows what is to become of Jenny’s love life. One thing is for certain, we all do love to talk about it, and though her crush of the day may change, us wanting to dish about it is not subject to change any time soon.

“If Lindsay isn’t already in New York City, she is on her way. That was the plan to make sure she wasn’t around for any of his crazy antics.”

Last week, Michael - who recently claimed the starlet has an addiction to prescription drugs - told gossip website X17 he wanted to “kidnap” his daughter and take her to an isolated location to help “get her straight”. As we reported, he told the world, “I’m going to see the judge this week. If I can’t get a conservatorship, then I’m going to take her to an undisclosed location and get her straight. But I know I’m going to get charged with kidnapping.” Kidnapping. Yes, while we may have already discussed it, it does bear repeating. Kidnapping is NOT the way to get closer to your estranged daughter, Michael. But look at all the headlines it’s generating for you! Clap clap!

And finally we have a little juice to squeeze when it comes to George Clooney. Well, it isn’t much actually, but when it comes to this super hunky A-lister, having ANYTHING to say can be quite the blessing. And here he is at one token red carpet event with token pretty girl on his arm, this time it is Elisabetta Canalis. And George is one of those guys that never seems to really have to do much when it comes to keeping up that single bachelor image, because even when he is spending time with the lovely ladies, he STILL perpetuates his single status. This time it seems that no matter who is hanging on his every so sexy arm, that he still feels a little lonely. You have to know it’s bad when George Clooney is having a lonely day, that’s about as ugly as Angelina having a fat day. But so it goes in the lives of the rich and famous. But as it turns out, at the end of the day, George struggles with love just as much as the rest of us do. Clooney, who has dated a string of beautiful women, admits finding relationships hard, adding he has often felt ”lonely” while dating someone. On his list of former GF’s include Renee Zellweger, Kelly Preston and Lisa Snowdon, and some cocktail waitress from somewhere, George still has struggled to find love, and hopes his new romance with Italian TV presenter Elisabetta Canalis will last the distance. And here is Georgey Boy on love:

“I’ve had some absolutely great relationships and some not so great relationships. I’ve been in some relationships where I’ve felt terribly alone. Just because you’re with someone it doesn’t mean you’re incredibly happy and complete. I’ve had some easy and natural, made-sense break-ups as well as some rough ones. I deal with them the same way we all do: I’m successful with some and not so successful with others. I don’t think my experiences are any different than anybody else’s, they’ve just been amplified a little more.”

George insists ending relationships is no different when you are famous, although the intense scrutiny on his love-life can make things tough. He also revealed he is content with his appearance, and has no problem with his graying hair and lined face - although in his mind he still looks like he did in his heyday. And who can argue with him on that one? But he likes his distinguished appearance, and we have to agree that it works for him.

“I’m old. I’m kind of comfortable with getting older because it’s better than the other option, which is being dead. So I’ll take getting older. It’s an interesting thing to be able to watch yourself grow older on screen. I was watching ‘Up in the Air’ and I thought, ‘Jesus, who’s the old, grey-haired guy?’ And it was me. I never wear make-up for movies and now it’s starting to show.”

Old guy or no old guy, you’re as young as you feel, right? And I am sure there are many many men in his age bracket that would LOVE to look as “old” as he does. In the meantime, while George ages gracefully and ponders on the same pursuits of love and happiness that we all do, we hope that he finds his happy person soon. And if it’s one of us, all the better.

Jessica Biel is spotted here in a photo op that may have us guessing about the status of her relationship with Justin Timberlake, as she seems to have the romance and mushy stuff covered with her armfuls of heart kidoodles. But do not let this picture fool you, as she is seen with this armload of pinky stuff as she films scenes for her most recent romantic comedy ‘Valentine’s Day’. In this scene, Jessica stumbles out of her car as she struggles to rush into an Indian restaurant with all of these Valentinesy extravaganza items, as a cheeky valet attendant slips the parking ticket inside her bra. So this scene is all about work folks, and will give us no clue on what is going on with the J and J romance. But it seems that those that know Jessica well, like Justin’s mom, are still cheerleading for this couple to pull through whatever storm they are experiencing right now. Though Justin Timberlake hasn’t “officially” (i.e. publicly) confirmed he’s set long-time girlfriend Jessica Biel out on the curb with a “Free To A Good Home” sign, theh fact remains that he’s told almost everyone. Everyone, that is, but his beloved mother, Lynn Harless. When asked what kind of woman she’d like to see her son wind up with, the Tennessee native gushed to E! News about “the one he’s with now,” and she’s not talking Rihanna:

“He’s found someone that’ll golf with him, give him a hard time when he deserves it and stand up to him,” she said.

Meanwhile, when not shooting lovey dovey Valentine’s scenes, Jessica has been moping around L.A. while Justin has been club-hopping in Vegas in advance of his Justin Timberlake & Friends Concert, which raises money for Shriner’s Hospitals for Children. According to Fox News, Ma Timberlake isn’t the only one rooting for Justin to make it work with Jessica. “Justin’s friends are usually all about anything he wants, but in this case, his boys are totally disappointed in him,” a source says. “They think he’s making a big mistake by dumping Jess.” Well that’s awfully flattering. Are they sure this source isn’t just Jessica Biel talking through a kazoo? Who knows, if you ask me she can do better than Timberlake, not that he’s anything to sneeze at, but she IS still Jessica Biel.

Here we have Lindsay Lohan looking ever the fashionista as she is spotted leaving her hotel in downtown Manhattan not that long ago. Yes she always seems to look great, but there are some concerns that she has been hitting the nightlife a little hard, and using prescription meds to ease the hangovers. And a little too much it seems, but that’s only what her father is saying. In fact he is so upset about his daughter that he has threatened to actually kidnap her if she doesn’t smarten up and go to rehab again on her own. Continuing his crusade to get his daughter Lindsay sober, the desperate dad threatens to abduct the ailing actress. Is this parenting? Or is he just trying to control his daughter again, in what the entire world knows now is one of the most turbulent public relationships a father and daughter can have. But it’s true. Michael Lohan is stepping forward to deliver the best damn fathering he can to his drug-addled daughter Lindsay. Of course, because this is Michael Lohan, who can’t do any parenting properly, that fathering would be a kidnapping threat. Michael sent a statement to the paparazzi agency X17 saying he’s hoping a judge will award him what’s known in the prestigious Entertainment Tonight School Of Lawyering as The Jamie Spears–a conservatorship over Lindsay’s financial and legal affairs, like the one Britney Spears is currently under. However, a man of compromise, he’s willing to settle for a little forced confinement.

“If I can’t get a conservatorship, then I’m going to take her to an undisclosed location and get her straight. But I know I’m gonna get charged with kidnapping.”

Yeah, because good parents weigh the odds when seriously considering taking their adult children against their will. And as you can imagine, Lindsay’s response is a hell to the no.

“Lindsay is actively getting a restraining order, her lawyer has already been contacted. She’s scared. This is really serious.”

Lindsay was in court on Friday to explain why she’s only about halfway through her alcohol education classes, a condition of her probation after she was charged with a DUI in 2007. She was given an extra year to complete the classes, to successfully complete her terms of probation. But of course, since he has nothing else but a potential kidnapping to put him in the news, Michael has been doing the talk-show rounds, attempting to embarrass her sober…or something. He also took his struggles to the first name in paternity tests, Maury Povich, on Friday.

“I’m not going to bury you, you’re gonna bury me before this is over,” he said to his estranged daughter through the camera. “I’m gonna do anything and everything I have to save your life, whether mom likes it, the public likes it, or anyone.”

Well, public, do we like it? For my two cents, it seems like this crusade is more about Michael than it is about Lindsay. But hasn’t it always been? But, to quote a source from Star’s current cover story on Lindsay’s non-exercise related “ROCK BOTTOM!,” “she could easily end up murdered.” So I guess we should pay some grudging respect to Michael for at least attempting to do something, even if that something is ride his daughter’s coattail into the nether regions of trash TV. Michael Lohan. What WILL he think of next.
