JWoww Turned Down $400,000 Playboy Offer

While I do believe that Playboy made an real offer to Jersey Shore’s JWoww…I have a hard time believing she would walk away from nearly half a million dollars. So maybe she’s exaggerating just a tiny bit.

Anyway…she says she turned it down because she’s got some better things going on. It’s been confirmed that she has moved in with Snooki and it’s pretty much known that they’ve got their own spinoff. But why not use the Playboy opportunity to promote herself and the new show?

“I am not going to do Playboy in the near future,” she told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM radio show Wednesday. “There is a better opportunity out there, which everybody will probably see soon.”




Katy Perry Gets Indian Bridal Nose Ring For Her Wedding

Katy Perry will be marrying Russell Brand this weekend wearing a traditional Indian bridal nose ring called a nath.

Homegirl is fully embracing Indian tradition. These are going to be celebrity wedding pictures that I actually want to see.

The nath comprises of a gold chain attached to a nose ring which is hooked across the bride’s right cheek and pinned to her hair above the ear.

Tradition dictates the bride’s will wear the nath throughout the wedding day, with the bridegroom removing it on the wedding night as a symbol of the woman’s virginity ending. Insert your own “he’s too late for late” joke here.



Lindsay Lohan Nude Motorcyle Pictures

Photographer Harvey Edwards has released a few pictures from his book Celebrities and their Motorcyles and they are of a nude Lindsay Lohan. You can’t see her face and she seems to be missing a few tattoos..but that’s easy enough to touch up.

Edwards says of Lindsay, “She was truly wonderful to work with, a true professional and extremely talented artist”

See the rest of the nude pictures after the jump.




Pamela Anderson Lands Her 11th Playboy Cover

Wasn’t it just a few months ago that Pamela Anderson was whining about how her kids are mocked and ridiculed because of all her countless nude pictures and sex tapes? I guess they got over it because she is gracing the cover of Playboy’s January 2011 issue. It’s a done deal.

The “Baywatch” bombshell landed her first Playboy cover way back in 1989, and was named Playmate of the year in 1990. And now, 20 years later, Anderson is baring all again for the January 2011 issue, cavorting naked in a pool as an homage to Ekberg’s infamous scene in Rome, Italy’s Trevi Fountain with Marcello Mastroianni in the 1960 movie classic.

On his Twitter.com page, Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner writes, “Pamela Anderson is in the (Playboy) Mansion swimming pool, posing for the January cover in a tribute to ‘La Dolce Vita.’”

When will Pam (and Hugh and the men of the world) decide she is too old to get naked for the masses? Pam will be 43 when the magazine is published. It’s been three years since she last posed for Hugh and co..it’ll be interesting to see how she’s holding up.



Major Progress: TJ Lavin Talking, Breathing on Own

Great news today out of the camp of TJ Lavin: the BMX star, who was placed in a medically-induced coma following a terrible crash on October 14, is speaking and breathing on his own.

"He's answering questions," friend and business partner Chas Aday told People. "He'll say 'yes' a little bit and he knows where he is, but he's not opening his eyes yet."

Lavin, TJ

This is considered major progress for the host of MTV's The Challenge, who has been in the trauma unit of a Las Vegas hospital for over a week.

Aday says his friend will need rehab to "get back to normal," but doctors don't expect there to be any resulting bran damage from the accident. Their next step will to perform surgery on his broken wrist.

"We're waiting on the orthopedic surgeon on when they're going to do that," Aday says. "Then we'll see when he'll be [released]. He may be there another week."

Matt and Luciana Damon have their hands full!

All is well on the home front, too: "Mom and baby are both healthy," a representative for the Hereafter star said this weekend. "The whole family is thrilled."

Matt, 40, and Luciana, 35, wed in 2005 and have two children – Isabella, 4, and Gia, 2. Luciana also has a daughter, Alexia, from a previous marriage.

Congratulations to both on the new addition to the family!

Katy Perry and Russell Brand: Married!

Russell Brand and Katy Perry tied the knot Saturday night in India.

The couple "were pronounced Mr. and Mrs. Brand on Saturday, October 23," they said after marrying in a private ceremony attended by close family and friends and performed by a Christian minister and longtime friend of Katy's family.

We couldn't be happier for the two of them.

Katy Perry is now Mrs. Russell Brand!

Katy Perry and Russell Brand exchanged wedding vows at a luxury resort, with the backdrop "the inspirational and majestic countryside of Northern India."

In the days leading up to the nuptials (which you can follow this link to read all about), Brand and Perry have been pulling out all the stops for their guests.

It sounds like the result was a near-perfect event. Despite the lavishness of certain aspects of the wedding, Russell said it was all about keeping it simple.

"We just love each other and we want to get married in front of our friends and family and keep it very normal," said Brand earlier this month." It ain't about selling the pictures, it ain't about doing no pre-nup, it's just a normal thing."

"I'm trying to preserve it, to keep it beautiful," the Get Him to the Greek star said. "Love between two people is the most spectacular, yet ordinary thing in the world."

We're glad they found it with each other. Congratulations!

Celine Dion, Rene Angelil Welcome Twin Boys!

After a long and often heartbreaking journey, Celine Dion is finally a mom again – times two! The singer gave birth to twin boys on Saturday in Florida!

"Celine, René and their son René-Charles are thrilled," says her rep, adding that the babies weighed in at 5 lbs., 4 oz., and 5 lbs., 10 oz., respectively.

Dion's doctor, Ronald Ackerman, said at a press conference outside the hospital Friday evening that the delivery, done via C-section, went as expected.

Celine Dion and Rene Angelil are finally parents again.

The twins are healthy, says Dion's rep, but will nevertheless spend the next couple of days in an incubator because they were born prematurely. Celine was hospitalized as a precautionary measure last week, leading up to the birth.

"Celine is resting now and they plan to discuss what to name the boys when she wakes up," the rep adds, noting that their other son is thrilled. "René-Charles has been to the hospital to visit his brothers and is so excited they are here."

Congratulations to the happy family!

Randy and Evi Quaid: Arrested, Seeking Refugee Status in Canada

Actor Randy Quaid and his insane wife Evi are definitely living in their own world, but it's an entertaining one for us to catch a glimpse of from time to time.

Wanted by authorities in California, the fugitives were arrested Friday in Vancouver. They want to stay in Canada as refugees. Truth is stranger than fiction.

Randy and Evi Quaid say they are being persecuted south of the border.

REFUGEES: That's what the Quaids aspire to be now.

Evi Quaid pleaded for a Canadian immigration adjudicator not to return them to the U.S. She said her husband's friends, such as David Carradine and Heath Ledger, have died under suspicious circumstances and worries Randy will be next.

We are not making this up.

"We feel our lives are in danger," she said, complaining of high blood pressure and adding that Randy Quaid's mother is in hospital due to stress over all this.

Monday, California officials issued arrest warrants for Randy, 60, and Evi, 47, after they failed to appear in court for allegedly squatting in a home illegally.

The Quaids previous owned the house in Montecito, Calif. Both face felony vandalism charges for breaking into and living in the property's guest house.

Local authorities said the couple caused more than $5,000 in damage, including smashing a $7,000 mirror. Then they failed to show in court, of course.

This nonsense followed an unrelated, but similarly absurd case last year in which the Quaids stayed in a California B&B and skipped out without paying (then were no-shows in court and had to be hunted down by authorities as well).

Celebrity bounty hunter Duane Chapman (Dog the Bounty Hunter) issued a public challenge to the couple Thursday, urging them to turn themselves in.

Otherwise, he's comin' after them himself!

"At least do it for your wife and for how you were raised. If not, well, the Chapman family is coming after you," the bounty hunter said on Lopez Tonight.

How much would you pay to see that on TV?!

NeNe Leakes Plastic Sugery Pics: Before & After

NeNe Leakes is a new woman. Literally.

The Real Housewife of Atlanta admitted this week that she sat through extensive plastic surgery operations in April, receiving a nose job, a breast implant reduction, a breast lift and lipo around her waist.

"I still wanted to look like NeNe, the black woman that I am, but a better version," Leakes said of the procedures, which still leaves her seven short of the number Heidi Montag has undergone.

Compare the old NeNe with the new NeNe below and chime in: Which do you prefer?
