Last week Lil Kim got caught doing some driving without a license in a car with no plates. Should you find yourself in this situation, she has some advice that may help you get off. First of all, never stick to one story. Be brave and change things up at will! Also, never be afraid to make things up that could not possibly be true!
For example, tell police that your plate-free car was delivered from California as a gift from your boyfriend. If the cops seem disinterested, up the anti and tell them that cars in California do not require license plates so it’s natural that yours doesn’t have one. See? Problem solved.
If the police question you on your lack of license, just tell them that you have a license that is valid in another state, but you just forgot to bring it for your drive. Lil Kim said her license was from New Jersey. She doesn’t actually have one, but the lie got her released, so it’s all good.

Every child of the 80s is familiar with The Goonies. It was one of the classic (if not the most classic) movies that Corey Feldman starred in. He even starred in it without Corey Haim. Fans were not the only ones to love this movie. Even the filmmakers loved the premise. Everyone has been itching for a sequel, but 22 years later there is nothing to show for the interest.
Feldman was talking to MTV about sequel ideas that have passed through the pipeline to bring The Goonies back. One idea had his character as a Vegas shyster known as “The Mouth” and another sequel placed him as a trial lawyer. Feldman’s favorite option so far included the following idea.
“All of us were now grown up, and have our own kids. And those kids get into some trouble and end up stumbling across some link to our past. They discover who we really are and what we went through. And, simultaneously, the Fratelli brothers find out that the kids have found out – so they’re out to get the kids and the kids are out to save their lives and their families.”

Everyone’s favorite muggle, (that’s what they are called right?) Hermione Granger is played in real life by Emma Watson. This summer, Watson had plans to take off work and just enjoy her time as a 17 year old. However, those plans all changed when she discovered her new role as a school girl in the upcoming movie, Ballet Shoes, where she will play Pauline.
On her website, Emma says, “I really thought I was going to take the summer off…and then I fell in love with Ballet Shoes. I loved Pauline from the start. She makes mistakes and comes across badly at times, but I really felt as though I understood her. The cast is amazing and I can’t wait to work with everyone.”

Just yesterday I was reporting that Amy Winehouse was ready to give up her days in rehab and her night’s of partying with horses for a new life with a baby. Today, The Mirror is reporting about a disgusting mess that Winehouse created in her Caribbean hotel room this week.
The Mirror reports that there was blood and vomit all over the bathroom of Winehouse’s room at the Jade Mountain Resort in St. Lucia, where the couple has been staying for over a week. A staff member is quoted as saying, “There was blood and vomit all over the bathroom. It was just terrible. It looked like she’d been sick many times. There was blood mixed up in the vomit. It was sickening. They were horrified by the state of the room which looked like a bomb had hit it.”
The hotel management attempted to be as diplomatic as possible by offering to send out for a doctor, but Winehouse declined saying she would be fine. Meanwhile, Winehouse and her inability to hold her drugs and alcohol caused part of the hotel to shut down for a brief while when she vomited on a sofa in the resort’s restaurant.

Keira Knightly has a simple request for the media and the people that read entertainment news. She wants people to focus on her films and not on her body. Apparently that is easier said then done. Knightly is in Venice for the film festival, promoting her new movie, Atonement. While in Venice, the subject of her weight has come up more than once.
At a press conference concerning the movie, she had this to say:
“It’s really frustrating, and particularly when you come to Venice film festival with a film that is an intelligent film. It’s a thought-provoking film you can have a really good discussion about. I think it was just a shame that that had to be brought up then, and the fact that we all knew that it was going to be brought up. We actually had a bet going. I was like ‘Come on, how many times either anorexia or something about my body, are going to come up?”

Taking a page from the Britney Spears play book, Ashlee Simpson’s new songs have been leaked onto the Internet. While I am not about to go looking for them (I learned from my last mistake), I am sure you can find them if you look on Google or one of your other sources.
Simpson’s album comes out in November and will prove to be different than her last attempts at what some might call music. Simpson has been talking about her album recently and mentioned that you can expect some spirituality in this album that was lacking previously. According to Ashley: Continue reading →

Britney is in Vegas this weekend to host the opening of the new LAX Nightclub at the Luxor Casino. According to TMZ, Brit Brit arrived looking interesting in a white baby doll dress, with a $2 wig that appeared to be sewn in her hat. Isn’t that sexy?
Britney was on the mic for all of two minutes before DJ AM began spinning his records. Britney was on stage sitting in a chair where she could be seen chair dancing. Why she didn’t stand up to dance, we’re not exactly sure; perhaps she’s pacing herself for this weekend.
Located in the VIP section were Wilmer Valderrama, Nicky Hilton, and the greasy haired (mind) freak who isn’t dating Britney, Criss Angel.

If there is anything that most people can agree is annoying in life, it is people that do not turn off their cell phones in a movie theater. Apparently, John Travolta is one of those people. At least, when it comes to movies he’s not in, anyway. Page Six is reporting that while at his wife, Kelly Preston’s new movie premiere, Death Sentence, Travolta did not turn off his cell phone.
Audience members were less than thrilled. One member of the audience spoke to Page Six and said, “Travolta’s cell phone rang right as the film started. Twice. It was really loud, and a few people were harshly hushing.”

I must be getting old because I remember cute little Andy Keaton with fondness. Turns out, the grown up Brian Bonsall is not as well behaved as his little television counterpart. Brian Bonsall, who is now 25, pleaded guilty to third degree assault charges. Three other charges that were placed against him have been dismissed.
In March, Bonsall was arrested when his girlfriend filed a report saying that he poured a drink in her face while she was sleeping and put her in a choke hold. When she tried to leave, she was thrown on a bed. Bonsall disputed the claims and said that he was responding in self-defense after his girlfriend cut his face and arm with a knife. Bonsall’s girlfriend denied the claims and was not charged with anything.
