Record Producer Kim Fowley Has Died

Record Producer Kim Fowley has passed away at the age of 75 after a long battle with bladder cancer, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The veteran music producer also helped to form and managed the group The Runaways in the 1970's; he was portrayed in the film The Runaways by Michael Shannon. Former Runaways member Cherie Curie reconciled with Fowley in 2008 when she learned of his diagnosis, and last August moved Fowley into her home to care for him.

Iggy Azalea Victorious Over Jealous Ex

Iggy Azalea's ex-boyfriend Maurice Williams (aka Hefe Wine), has been trying to release early recordings of the rapper. The Hollywood Reporter states that Azalea just scored a victory in court: the defendants had forged her signature on a variety of documents claiming to give them the rights to any and all music she had ever recorded. So far the injunction is preliminary; the case will have to heard in another court to get a permanent injunction.

Meet The Barkers - In Handcuffs!

Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler were arrested last month for threatening to kill eachother, reports TMZ. Despite being divorce and hating eachother with a fiery passion most of the time, the exes still live in the same house with their children. Moakler was the one who called the cops after Travis allegedly said "If I could, I'd put a bullet in your head." When the cops arrived, Barker told them that Moakler allegedly threatened to have her boyfriend kick hiss ass. With all of the crappy reality shows on TV, why has MTV not brought back Meet the Barkers? This would make for great television!

Karina Smirnoff Engaged to Jason Adelman

E! reports that Karina Smirnoff is engaged to boyfriend Jason Adelman. The couple have been together just under a year. This will be the third engagement for Smirnoff; she was engaged to fellow DWTS castmember Maksim Chmerkovskiy in 2008, but split a year later, and baseball player Brad Penny in 2010, but they broke it off later in the year. Hopefully third time is the charm!

Blind Gossip Blind Item - This Will Rock Your Faith In Marriage

We don’t want this little story to rock your faith in marriage. But it just might.

In comparison to many rock stars whose lives have descended down the slippery slope of drugs and alcohol and unabated decadence over time, this singer has a relatively good name. He is one of the world’s best-selling musical artists AND he is a family man in a long-term marriage.

Nice, right? Hold on, though. Everything is not what it seems! He has an arrangement with his wife. While he is on tour, they have an open relationship. However, he is only allowed to sleep with a very specific type of partner who has been screened and hired through an agency. The type of partner he sleeps with? Transsexuals!

Who is your favorite artist (e.g. painter, sculptor, etc)?

New Music From Adam Lambert

After parting ways with RCA Records, Adam Lambert has signed to Warner Bros. Records, and will be releasing a new album in early summer, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Lambert is currently in the studio working with Max Martin. Martin previously worked with Lambert on both Whataya Want From Me and If I Had You. The first single from the upcoming album will be released in April.

Caesars Palace Goes For Broke

Caesars Palace's operating company has filed for Bankruptcy, reports CNBC. The company filed for Chapter 11, and plans to cut $10 billion of debt, reducing their debt from $18.4 billion to $8.6 billion. Most of the debt is a result of a leveraged buyout of Harrah's in 2008. The company does not anticipate needing to close any of its casinos under the restructuring; there are 44 in total. There are some celebrity names that popped up in the filing. TMZ reports that Caesars owes Nobu almost $460K; one of the restaurant's owners is Robert De Niro. Gordon Ramsey's restaurant is also owed $307K. Mariah Carey just signed on to a residency deal with Caesars. Britney Spears makes $475K/show, and Carey's deal is definitely worth more, although the final amount has not been disclosed.

Snoop Goes From Doggfather To Grandfather

Yes, you read that correctly. Rapper Snoop Dogg, 43, is a grandfather, reports BET. The rapper's eldest son, Cordé Broadus, fathered a baby boy named Zion, and was present at the birth. Talk about things that make you feel old!

Ian Ziering Serves Up Vintage 90210 Tea

Ian Ziering recently sat down for a radio interview with Z100, and dished on his old 90210 days. Page Six quotes Ziering as recounting the following story: "So, very early on in the filming, no one knew how old Jason Priestley was and he wouldn’t tell anybody his age; he was keeping that a secret. One day we’re on set and Shannen comes to set and says, ‘Haha! I know how old you are, you’re 21 years old!’ And Jason said, ‘How do you know that?’ She said, ‘Well I went into your dressing room and I went into your wallet and looked at your license!’" And who doesn't remember the famous "Donna Martin Graduates!" scene? You'll never look at it the same way again! "Donna Martin masturbates is what we were saying on that day,” Ziering said. “The director was kind of upset with us, but we wouldn’t say it right. We were just having a good time."

Chris Brown Violates Probation, May Go To Jail

On Monday, you read about the recent shooting at a Chris Brown concert. The judge has decided that the concert violated his probation in the Rihanna case, which has now been revoked. Brown did not get permission to leave the county prior to performing in San Jose. Additionally, the judge expressed concern that people have been getting shot at Chris Brown concerts. The probation officer recommended jail, and TMZ quotes the officer as stating that Brown has shown "a pattern of making choices that are counterproductive." A hearing has been set for March 20th to decide on the singer's fate.

Bethenny Getting...High?

Tom Ford Could Return To Gucci

Remember when I said that I hoped that Gucci would keep throwing money at Tom Ford until he returned to the brand? Well, ask and ye shall receive! Page Six is reporting that Tom Ford's name is in the mix to take over the brand. Ford ran Gucci from 1994-2004. Ford parted ways with the brand over a dispute with the parent company, PPR. Since then, Gucci has a new parent company. The new owner is Kering, headed by Salma Hayek's husband François-Henri Pinault. Keep your fingers crossed!

And You Thought Lorena Bobbitt Was Bad!

The names are going to get confusing here, so I'll denote them with (M) for male and (F) for female. This story comes to you out of the People's Republic of China. Feng Lung (F), 30, found out that her husband Fan Lung (M), 32, was having an affair when Fan (M) borrowed Feng's (F) phone to sext his girlfriend. Fan (M) forgot to log out of his account, and when Feng (F) found the messages, the mother of five became enraged. She marched into their bedroom, and while her husband slept, she cut off his penis with a scissors. Sadly, Fan (M) made it to the hospital along with his penis, and they were able to reattach it. Of course, this would not do for Feng (F), because everybody knows that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Feng (F) proceeded to cut of Fan's (M) newly attached penis, and threw it out the hospital window. Fan (M), bleeding like a stuck pig, chased Feng (F) into the street and started hitting her. Authorities were unable to find his penis the second time. But don't worry about Fan (M); his mistress said she doesn't mind one bit that he no longer has a penis, because he already has five children. The moral of the story? Cheaters never prosper.

Gigi Hadid New Face of Maybelline

The campaigns keep coming! Gigi Hadid has been announced as the newest spokesperson for Maybelline New York, reports Us Weekly.

Joanna Krupa Suing Brandi Glanville Over Stinky Comments

Joanna Krupa is sick and tired of Brandi Glanville telling everyone who will listen that Krupa has smelly lady parts. TMZ reports that Krupa's lawyers have fired off a letter to Glanville alerting her that she will be getting hit with a defamation suit. And since Real Housewives sign contracts prohibiting them from suing eachother, I guess that means Real Housewives of Miami is officially dunzo. Unless the contracts only pertain to suing Real Housewives of your own city? At any rate, here's where it all started:

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Still Bumpy

At a Golden Globes party, this young star – whose photos make a lot of magazine covers – seemed to be doing better than usual. She was eating heartily and she wasn’t drinking. Hey, that’s progress! She was trying very hard to be serious and mature and make a good impression on all those big Hollywood players. However, just when we thought she had cleaned up her act… it turned into a bumpy night. She just couldn’t seem to resist those little bumps of white powder. So close to well-behaved!

Jennifer Love Hewitt Out And About With Her Family

The Daily Mail has the first pictures of Jennifer Love Hewitt since she announced her second pregnancy. Hewitt is pictured leaving lunch toting her one-year-old daughter Autumn, accompanied by her husband Brian Hallisay. See the pictures here.

Ann Curry Finally Departing NBC

You're probably reading this thinking, didn't that happen years ago? But Page Six reports that Ann Curry is finally leaving NBC. Curry departed the Today Show two and a half years ago with a huge contract, and has filed a few reports since as a correspondent for NBC. She is unhappy because she's doing nothing, and NBC is unhappy because they're paying her to do nothing. Curry will be setting up her own production company when she leaves.

Grammy Awards Performers Announced

The Grammy Awards will take place on February 8th and air on CBS. The Hollywood Reporter has announced the first round of performers at this year's ceremony. They include Madonna, Ariana Grande, Ed Sheeran, Eric Church, and AC/DC. Surprisingly, this will be AC/DC's first Grammy performance.

Would You Watch the Real Housewives of New Jersey Without Teresa?

That's the question that is allegedly plaguing the minds of Bravo executives. TMZ has a story claiming that the execs are leaning toward shelving the series until Teresa Giudice is out of prison. The rest of the cast is not taking this speculation well. Regardless of whether or not the TMZ story is true, do you think that Real Housewives of New Jersey can survive without Teresa?

Jamie Lynn Spears Knife Fight

Last month, Jamie Lynn Spears broke up a fight at the Pita Pit in Hammond, LA. TMZ has just released the video of the fight. One of Spears' friends got dragged into the middle of some dudes fighting, and not only did she drag her friend out of the scrap, she broke up the fight by waving around a giant knife! You go, girl!

Liam Gallagher Fined For Child Support

Liam Gallagher is the angry Gallagher brother from Oasis. Is there any other kind? To clarify, Liam Gallagher is the angrier of the two Gallagher brothers from Oasis. He was also just fined $5,000 for missing court appearances in Manhattan in a child support case with ex-mistress Lisa Ghorbani, reports Page Six. The judge was not amused by a hastily scrawled doctor's note claiming the singer couldn't come to court because he was "anxious and depressed."

I'm sure those dating rumors will last right up until the release date, and maybe even get revived when the film comes out on DVD.

How Allison Williams Prepared For An Onscreen Salad Tossing

Spoiler alert: this week's episode of Girls started with Allison Williams' character Marnie getting eaten out from behind by costar Ebon Moss-Bachrach's character Desi. Williams talked to Vulture about how she prepared for the scene. It was shot on her birthday, so Williams told the makeup department that she wanted her ass to smell like a cake. They put vanilla cream everywhere (Hey! Strippers like to smell like vanilla too!), and they rigged up something to stuff in her butt crack so that Moss-Bachrach was basically motorboating a small pillow. Well, that's one way to make Marnie less uptight!

Kraft Ruins Cadbury Creme Eggs

Well, Easter is ruined. The Huffington Post reports that Cadbury's Creme Eggs will no longer be made of dairy milk chocolate in the UK. The lovely creamy texture of Cadbury's famed signature Dairy Milk chocolate will be replaced with a "standard cocoa mix chocolate." They also changed the packaging to contain 5 eggs instead of 6. But wait. Why do all of these news reports specifically state "United Kingdom?" Oh, that's right. Because in the US they've already been serving us this horrible not real chocolate crap for years, manufactured by Hershey. There goes running to the British store to get superior candy!

Meet Sean Douglas

Those of you who saw the Golden Globes saw Michael Keaton's touching speech to his son. You may not have heard his name before, but you've probably heard his music. Page Six reveals that Sean Douglas, 31, is a singer-songwriter, and has written such hits as Demi Lovato's Heart Attack, and Jason Derulo's Talk Dirty and Wiggle. Douglas also wrote a track on Madonna's upcoming Rebel Heart album. Some personal info about Douglas: His mother, Caroline McWilliams, was married to Keaton from 1982 - 1990, and passed away in 2010. And the reason that Sean's last name is Douglas? So is Michael Keaton's. Michael Douglas, as he was born, had to change his name when he joined SAG, because there was already a famous actor who bore that name. Michael chose Keaton as a nod to Buster Keaton.
