In her web site, Pink wrote:

I'm sure my newest video for "F**kin’ Perfect" will be much like some of my other videos, which basically means I expect it will ruffle some feathers.

My favorite books, art pieces, films, and music, always have something jarring about them. I want art to make me think.

In order to do that, it may piss me off, or make me uncomfortable. That promotes awareness and change, or at least some discussion.

That is my intention.

You can't move mountains by whispering at them.

Cutting, and suicide, two very different symptoms of the same problem, are gaining on us. (the problem being; alienation and depression. the symptoms; cutting and suicide). I personally don't know a single person who doesn't know at least two of these victims personally. A lot of us have seen certain starlets showing off their latest scars on a red carpet somewhere, usually right before they head back to their favorite rehab.

Its a problem, and its something we should talk about.

We can choose to ignore the problem, and therefore ignore this video, but that won't make it go away.

I don't support or encourage suicide or cutting.

I support the kids out there that feel so desperate/numb/powerless, that feel unseen and unheard, and can't see another way.. I want them to know I'm aware. I have been there. I see them.

Sometimes that's all it takes.

Making this video was a very emotional experience for me, as was writing this song. I have a life inside of me, and I want her or him to know that I will accept him or her with open and loving and welcoming arms. And though I will prepare this little munchkin for a sometimes cruel world, I will also equip this kid to see all the beauty in it as well. There are good people in this world that are open-minded, and loving. There are those that accept us with all of our flaws. I do that with my fans/friends, and I will do that with my child, whoever they decide to be.

Chelsea Handler calls Angelina Jolie a 'home wrecker' (VIDEO)

noreply@blogger.com (Clythee Villamar) — Mon, 06 Dec 2010 06:05:00 +0000

Comedienne Chelsea Handler called Angelina Jolie a "home wrecker" who stole her friend Jennifer Aniston's husband Brad Pitt. The Chelsea Lately host took on Angelina for saying she has no female friends, berrating her for being a "bitch."

"She's a homewrecker, she is," Chelsea said.

"She can rescue as many babies from as many countries as she wants to. I don't f***ing believe you. She gives interviews, 'I don't have a lot of female friends.' Cause you're a f**king c**t ... you're a f***ing bitch."

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt met while filming Mr. & Mrs. Smith, but Jolie had previously denied that she dated Pitt while he was still married to Aniston. Pitt and Aniston separate ways, and the top Hollywood actor then became the life partner of Jolie, with whom he has three biological children, and three adopted ones.

Watch the video below:

An insider quoted by Pop Eater, said:

"Chelsea is the best thing to happen to Jen... Chelsea isn't afraid to tell Jen the truth even if it is painful. In the past Jen has made it clear that she doesn't want her friends talking about what went down between her, Brad and Angie. But Chelsea doesn't care. She thinks Angelina has used her kids to manipulate her image and gotten away with destroying a beautiful marriage. She's going to shout it from the roof tops weather Jen likes it or not."

Google Translate Can Also Beat Box!

noreply@blogger.com (Clythee Villamar) — Sun, 05 Dec 2010 23:40:00 +0000

Beyonce's husband, billionaire rapper Jay-Z may have a new competition. At least, in cyber space that is. Google recently revealed that Google Translate can also beat box!

Watch the video demonstration below:

According to Google, this is how Google Translate works:

When Google Translate generates a translation, it looks for patterns in hundreds of millions of documents to help decide on the best translation for you. By detecting patterns in documents that have already been translated by human translators, Google Translate can make intelligent guesses as to what an appropriate translation should be. This process of seeking patterns in large amounts of text is called "statistical machine translation". Since the translations are generated by machines, not all translation will be perfect. The more human-translated documents that Google Translate can analyse in a specific language, the better the translation quality will be. This is why translation accuracy will sometimes vary across languages.

Full Statement of Erin Marie Barry, Alleged Lover of Tony Parker, Eva Longoria's husband

Erin Marie Barry, the alleged lover of Eva Longoria's husband San Antonio Spurs player Tony Parker, had broken her silence on the affair in a statement posted on her own Web site.

In the statement, Erin denied having an affair or even pursuing the 28-year old NBA player, who is team mate to her husband Brent Barry. As with the Desperate Housewives star and Parker, Erin and Brent Barry are also undergoing divorce proceedings.

Read Erin Marie Barry' s full statement here (lifted from her Web site BarrysHelpSA.org):

"It has been brought to my attention that people who do not know me think that I have had an affair with Tony Parker. I have received hundreds of emails and phone calls from supportive friends who do know me and know that what is being insinuated about me is a complete lie.

"I am so busy with my children and law school studies that to take even a few moments out of my day to address this ludicrous issue is an annoyance. I only take the time to explain myself because apparently my silence, as a result of my indifference, has been construed as an admission of guilt. These are my words and this is the last you will hear from me on this subject because I have more important things to do.

"I DID NOT HAVE AN AFFAIR WITH TONY PARKER, nor did I “pursue” Tony Parker. Unfortunately, because our divorces are occurring at the same time, great speculation has been cast on our friendship. My friendship with Tony Parker had nothing to do with the end of my marriage (which is painful enough without this added drama), and to assume that we had an affair is naïve, ridiculous, and completely misguided.

"Every day I dedicate myself to being a good person and the best Mom that I can possibly be for my two beautiful children. I pride myself on being a Mom first, an advocate for abused children second, and a law student third. Those are the things that are of the utmost importance to me. I have spent my adult life fighting for children who have been victimized so forgive me for not caring when someone tells me that my name is being dragged through the mud.

"Salacious rumors are not what keep me awake at night. What keeps me awake is wondering how the 5-year-old who was taken away from her abusive family is sleeping during her first night in a children’s shelter. I worry about friends fighting overseas and whether or not they will return home to their families.

"I worry about the health of my children, my family, and my friends. I worry about soccer uniforms, carpool, immunizations, baseball practice, paying the bills on time, grocery shopping, the kid’s homework, and so many other things that may seem menial to some people; but to me are everything. Right now I worry about my law school finals… being a first year law student is much scarier than dealing with gossip!"

'Ugly Betty' actor Michael Brea murdered, mistook mother for the devil

noreply@blogger.com (Clythee Villamar) — Thu, 25 Nov 2010 02:13:00 +0000

"Ugly Betty" actor Michael Brea said that he murdered his mother mistaking her for the devil. Brea was arrested for killing his mother in Brooklyn, New York, using a sword used for Masonic rites. Brea was then taken to Bellevue Hospital for psychiatric evaluation.

New York Post reports that during the evaluation, Brea said: "When I looked at my mother, I saw the devil."

Brea, who also had a small part in Step Up 3D killed his mother, aged 55, by using an ornate masonic sword, reportedly 3-foot long. According to reports, Brea had repeatedly stabbed and hit his mother on her head with the sword.

Upon hearing the noises coming from Brea's apartment, the neighbors made calls to the police, who then found the woman dead in the bathroom. According to neighbors, the 31-year old Brea was heard to have repeatedly shouted "Repent!" at his mother, and something about "the architect of the universe" a term used by Freemason to refer to the supreme being. Brea was a member of the Freemason and had been in a meeting earlier in the evening.

Police officers have arrested Michael Brea on charges of murder and possession of weapons.

noreply@blogger.com (Clythee Villamar) — Wed, 24 Nov 2010 06:50:00 +0000

'Baby' singer Justin Bieber is known as a flirt. From reality star Kim Kardashian to the demure Selena Gomez, Bieber has been somehow romantically linked to all kindof women. At the still-tender age of 16, it may be said that the Canadian singer has attained mastery in flirting.

However, not many know that Justin has taken tuition for the art of flirting. Bieber has a coach who teaches him how to flirt and do it the perfect way.

According to reports, Justin has got an adviser that goes by the name of Ryan. Bieber's coach gives the singer tips on how to conduct himself when approached by the opposite sex. These steps are aimed to maintain his teen-sensation image and impress his female fans. .

This might explain the ease Justin Bieber displays when he goes on to impress gals- be they Hollywood stars or be the gal next door. Bieber has flirted with pop singers Cheryl Cole and Katy Perry, and fellow teen stars Miley Cyrus, and Selena Gomez. Is Justin Bieber on the rise to become the modern day Cassonova? His fans and detractors just have to wait and see.

Men's Heath Australia develops own fragrance for men

noreply@blogger.com (Clythee Villamar) — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 04:37:00 +0000

Men’s Health Australia has developed its own custom-made fragrance, MH For Men. It is said that this is an Australian publishing first, and a men' s magazines world-first.

MH For Men was developed by leading Australian perfumer John Lambeth, whose brief was to create a signature Men’s Health scent that “conveys a sense of freshness, energy and potency while also being alluring to the opposite sex... a fragrance that will upgrade your personal space with a single squirt.”

Men's Health editor Bruce Ritchie explained: “MH For Men fragrance provides a first-of-its-kind way for Men’s Health to extend our brand beyond the pages of our magazine and into the everyday lives of our readers."

Readers will experience the fragrance in the magazine‟s December issue which is on sale today, with an eight-page feature designed to help men better navigate the department store fragrance aisle and choose the right scent for them.

Ritchie added: “With the festive season approaching, we wanted to find a way to cut through the waffle and provide guys with a solid understanding of how choosing the right fragrance can play a key role in improving their mood, defining their style and even making them more attractive to women.”

MH For Men features bright notes of lavender and citrus, boosting beta waves in the brain and making you more alert. The fragrance mellows into woodiness with middle notes of cedar, patchouli and sandalwood, and woody base notes of musk, amber and oak moss. Compositionally, the fragrance is a complex combination of 51 ingredients.

Erica Moore, fragrance evaluator for international scent classification organisation, Fragrances of the World, described MH for Men as “a herbaceous/woody fragrance that has a nostalgic, almost vintage, masculine quality that‟s really appealing... It‟s fresh and light, with a „just got out of the shower connotation that is fail-safe... I think women will definitely like it.”

A scent strip imbued with the fragrance will run alongside the "Making Scents" feature, allowing readers to experience MH For Men. The scent will not be made available for commercial purchase.

Will Robert Pattinson still 'love' Kristen Stewart post-'Twilight Saga'?

noreply@blogger.com (Clythee Villamar) — Sun, 21 Nov 2010 08:37:00 +0000

Twilight star Kristen Stewart fears that Robert Pattinson will dump her post-Twilight Saga. The Hollywood actress apparently has some reservations about Pattinson's devotion to her.

Stewart is quoted in the media as telling Robert Pattinson that she fears for the future of their relationship. The two met and fell into a romance while filming for the movie adaptations of Stephenie Meyer's best-selling series Twilight.

The franchise is now on its fourth and final film, which will be split into Breaking Dawn: Part 1 & Part 2. The last film will be shown in 2012.

Will still the romance between Kristen and Robert last post-Twilight Saga? That's what Kristen might have been contemplating when he asked Robert Pattinson.

According to Showbiz Spy, a sourced told a British newspaper that the Hollywood couple are currently having a very difficult time.

Showbiz Spy reports that:

“When they were apart this summer, it was extremely hard on them both,” a source told the UK’s Now magazine.

“So after a lot of heart-to-heart chats, they’ve put a plan together to prevent the rows when they’re apart.

“Kristen’s even suggested they could get married to show how committed they are.

“Rob says they’re too young but he doesn’t want to lose her.”

But there aren't wedding bells yet to be heard. Kristen Stewart has reportedly told Robert Pattinson that they should refrain from discussing intimate details about their relationship to avoid pressure.

Michael Douglas' ex-wife Diandra's lawsuit dismissed by Manhattan Supreme Court judge

noreply@blogger.com (Clythee Villamar) — Thu, 18 Nov 2010 13:27:00 +0000

The lawsuit of Michael Douglas' ex wife for half of the Hollywood actor's paycheck for his latest film Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps has been dismissed by a Manhattan judge.

Diandra Douglas argued that she is entitled to Michael Douglas' earning from the Wall Stree sequel since Michael had starred on the original as the greedy banker Gekko while they were still married.

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps revolves around the 2008 financial crisis and has grossed nearly $130 million worldwide.

However, Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Matthew Cooper dismissed the case since New York City was apparently the wrong venue because Diandra and Michael had finalized their divorce in California.

People quotes the lawyer for Michael Douglas, as saying that the actor was very excited about the news of judge's decision.

"This case should never have been brought in the first instance and certainly not in New York, " said Marilyn Chinitz, counsel for Michael Douglas.

"I hope she realizes she wasted a lot of time and money. Hopefully she will move on and leave Michael alone finally."

Diandra's lawyer Nancy Chemtob said their camp was planning an appeal. Chemtob said: "We respectfully disagree with the decision, and intend to appeal. Both parties are residents of New York, and the case should be decided here."
