Robert Pattinson to Screaming Fans: Thank You!

In response, these fans had a message for the Twilight Saga star: AHHHHHH!!!!

Because he's getting married filming Breaking Dawn in Brazil, Pattinson was not on hand for the ceremony. But he picked up the awards for Best Dressed and Best Actor and submitted a video via satellite, thanking those who voted. If you listen closely, you can make out at least a few words he says above the screams of his admirers below;

Still, these Pattinson lovers have a long way to go if they wish to top this crazy person as the world's biggest Twilight fan.

Phillipa Lepley: Kate Middleton Wedding Dress Designer?

But commotion over that sapphire frock is nothing compared to the absolute frenzy that has broken out over who will design this beauty's wedding gown.

The Royal Couple

According to the betting firm of William Hill, Phillipa Lepley has become one of the favorites to land this honor. Late yesterday, a number of three-figure bets were placed on this British designer. Really. People are gambling on who will design Kate's dress.

"There is rarely smoke without fire, and I would suggest she is possibly in the running and on a shortlist," said a spokesperson for that wagering agency.

As for the month in which the wedding will take place? The firm has taken April off the board because so many people were placing bets on it. Amazing.

First, Awful Listen: "I'm Hot" By Angelina Pivarnick

The portions of Angelina rapping we posted earlier this week don't do justice to the full version. More than four minutes of awfulness awaits below!

With her hamster-like voice, epic lyrics and Eiffel 65-esque backing vocals, this is an absolute riot. If you enjoy your ears bleeding, have at it ...

Ke$ha with a Mohawk: Awesome or Awful?

On any other celebrity, this might be a shock. On Ke$ha, we're almost surprised it took so long for her to make like Brody Jenner.

The eccentric singer said she did the 'do herself and:

"Even when I do dress up it's never like a pretty girl. I think it's more interesting to have a little of your [own] style in anything... I'm definitely not the hottest girl in the world by far, but, you have to work with what you got!"

Tre From Facebook: Willow Palin is Totally Homophobic; Apology Not Accepted!

Tre, the Alaskan dude who Willow Palin called a f*gg*t on Facebook this week, does NOT accept her sister Bristol's apology, thankyouverymuch.

He says Willow Palin, who lashed out at him for mocking her mom's TLC show, uses such language so often, she may very well be a homophobe.

Tre tells TMZ that he's not gay, but feels offended and bullied, given that "Willow called me a f**got in front of the whole world and my family."

Sarah and Willow Palin

What would Sarah Palin have to say about Willow's vocabulary?

Asked if he felt it was a homophobic rant, Tre replied that he thinks so, seeing as "She says 'queer' and 'gay' so much ... so probably ... maybe."

Although Bristol issued a public apology via Facebook on behalf of her and Willow, Tre says he's yet to hear from either one of them personally.

Does he accept Bristol's apology? "No way ... Maybe if it was sincere from them straight to me, I would consider. But it would have to be direct."

"People say these are baby grizzlies defending Mama Bear ... but how is she defending her family by calling us queers and low-lifes and f**gots?"

Six Pack Peek: Justin Bieber Flashes Rihanna

But the latter singer didn't simply receive a compliment from the 16-year old... she got an up-close and personal peek at his bare flesh!

On Monday night, Rihanna, Justin, friends and a record executive had dinner in Los Angeles. During the meal, "Justin started bragging about how he has abs," a source told Us Weekly.

When Rihanna joked about seeing them, the singer obliged!

"Justin took off his jacket, glasses and lifted up his shirt," said an insider. "Apparently he does have a little 6 pack!"

But don't just take this anonymous person's word for it. Rihanna herself Tweeted after the meal:

Justin Bieber just flashed me his abs in the middle of a restaurant! Wow! He actually had a lil 6 pack! Sexy,lol!

Look out, Matt Kemp. You might wanna feel your girlfriend's forehead. Someone is coming down with a serious case of Bieber Fever!

From Where Does Willow Smith Get Her Flow?

In the latest issue of W Magazine, Willow says simply: "I can’t do whatever I want. Mommy has to say it’s okay.” That mommy, of course, is actress Jada Pinkett Smith.

As for her musical influences and inspirations, Willow touched on those topics as well in the interview:

On her musical influences: “I like the way Billy Idol sings. Mommy turned me on to him. And I like Lady Gaga’s songs.”

On her parents: “Mommy and Daddy inspired me to be a performer. I get my flow from Daddy, my singing ability from Mommy, and the camera stuff from both. That’s just what happens when you hang out with the Smiths!”

Sarah Palin to American Idol Contestants: You Are All No-Talent Hacks!

Yes, this is a real story.

In Sarah Palin’s latest book, America by Heart: Reflections on Family, Faith and Flag, due out next week, she takes on a number of weighty topics. Presumably.

According to excerpts leaked today, she also lambasts American Idol for fostering a "cult of self-esteem." You know, since no one tells the singers they're bad!

Ninth IdolSarah Palin Speaks

WE'RE #1! Sorry, Lee DeWyze, but according to some observers, you're not.

"No one they have encountered in their lives - from parents to teachers to their president - wanted them to feel bad by hearing the truth," opines Sarah Palin.

She says Idol trots out a "seemingly endless supply of people who can’t sing but are deluded enough to get in front of a national television audience anyway.”

[Rebuttal rendered unnecessary]

Does the star of Sarah Palin's Alaska think the show's judging isn't harsh enough? Or shouldn't exist because it encourages mediocre singers to think they're stars?

Is this really necessary or accurate? While some Idol products are bad, the show did produce Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, Chris Daughtry and other stars.

As far as the broader narrative (we think) she's going for, we sort of agree that kids are coddled nowadays, but ... we're still a bit unclear on what her point is.

In any case, Sarah needn't worry that everyone out there is afraid to tell the truth. We've totally done so regarding Willow Palin's homophobia. You're welcome.

Excuse Adam Lambert While He Kisses Some Guy...

And to the countless music fans that have often mistaken the lyrics to this icon's classic 1967 single "Purple Haze."

As part of his Glam Nation Tour in Europe, Lambert treated concert goers to a rendition of this single, switching up the words from "Excuse me while I kiss the sky" to "Excuse me while I kiss some guy." Not merely apt for Adam, the latter verse has been sung so often that a website has actually been created in its honor.

Erin Barry: A Real-Life Desperate Housewife

Erin Barry, the mistress/sext-message fiend behind Eva Longoria and Tony Parker's divorce, is a real desperate housewife - a good girl gone bad!

According to the New York Post, the estranged wife of Brent Barry, a former teammate of Parker's, had been sexting Tony Parker for over a year.

But in 2006, Erin Barry described a storybook marriage to Brent, then a guard with the San Antonio Spurs, with San Antonio Woman magazine.

SEXT BOMB: Erin Barry's charms were too much for Tony to resist.

"To sit in your nice home, have your nice job and ignore the suffering going on around you, you can't enjoy what you have if you don't help those that are less fortunate," she said. "For me to be able to use the blessings that I have feels good."

Erin identified herself as a housewife and mom, a high-school sweetheart of Brent who met while a student at an all-girls Catholic school in San Francisco.

Erin also revealed she was born to a single, teen mom and adopted by a couple that also had three biological children: "It was kind of obvious," she said. "Here I was with my dark hair and olive complexion in this Irish-Polish family."

The news of Tony Parker and Eva Longoria's divorce comes just weeks after the Barrys, who have two boys, ages 4 and 9, also decided to divorce.

The Barrys wed 12 years ago. Longoria found the text messages between Erin and Tony and filed for divorce after just three years of marriage.

"Eva and I have been discussing our situation privately," Parker said. "We plan to continue to keep our discussions of this matter private."

Good luck with that.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Bested by Twilight Saga!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows brought in $24 million across the nation last night, as fans lined up for midnight showings of this blockbuster.

While impressive, though, that tally falls short of two Twilight Saga installments.

The record-holder for midnight showing haul is Eclipse, which earned $30 million during the first two hours of its release. That figure topped the previous best: New Moon's $26.3 million.

In 2009, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince brought in $22 million during this time slot, proving once and for all: no magic is a match for chiseled abs and brooding paleness!

Shirtless Showdown: Matthew Morrison vs. Matthew McConaughey

Report: Dancing With the Stars Set On Lockdown After White Powder Mailed to Bristol Palin

The apparent target, according to TMZ, was likely Bristol Palin.

Law enforcement sources say the powder substance was discovered by a DWTSstaff member, and a section of the studio was then evacuated and cordoned off.

Mark Ballas and Bristol Palin

Fortunately, the FBI reported it appears to be mere talcum powder after "initial field screening was negative for hazardous substances." An investigation continues.

The powder was contained in a piece of fan mail addressed to Bristol Palin. We know plenty of fans are upset with her long run on the show, but this is just wrong.

Come on, people. There's nothing funny about terrorist threats, even if Brandy's elimination really sucked. Get a grip ... also, the white powder thing is so 2001.

Inferno Producers to Lindsay Lohan: You're Fired!

Lindsay Lohan playing Linda Lovelace seemed too perfect, but it wasn't meant to be. The producers of Inferno are going in a new, less-troubled direction.

"We are withdrawing our offer from Lindsay Lohan," director Matthew Wilder said.

While it may seem a harsh rebuke of Lohan, who is currently in rehab at the Betty Ford Center, the director says it's not personal, it's just business.

Lohan as Lovelace

EXTINGUISHED: Guess they're gonna need a new poster.

"We have stuck by Lindsay very patiently for a long time with a lot of love and support," said Wilder, who hinted last week that Lindsay might lose the role.

"Ultimately, the impossibility of insuring her - and some other issues - made it impossible for us to go forward." Yep, an indefinite stay in rehab will do that.

An announcement on her replacement is imminent. "We are in negotiations [with another star] and working out the legalities of bringing her onboard."

Who do you think it is? Can anyone replace Lindsay?
