Put your hands up Naomi Watts!


Looks like somebody was cheering pretty hard at the Nicks Vs. Denver Nuggets game at Madison Square Garden on Saturday!

Naomi Watts and her partner Liev Schrieber put their hands in the air, and waved them like they didn’t care! (along with half the crowd!) Nice to see these two out and about for date night! I really like them together!

 

 

Kristin Cavallari is pregnant!

Well, it must be 2004 again, because it seems that our favorite Laguna Beach Narrator is in the news!

I kid i kid, sorta. Kristin Cavallari and finace Jay Cutler have announced that the former reality star is pregnant! The couple broke off their engagement in July, only to reconcile in November.

Well, how convenient that about 12 weeks later, a pregnancy is announced! Congrats to the happy pair though!

 

RUMOR ALERT: Heidi Klum and Seal to divorce!

No, I hope this isn’t true! They were so great together!

People magazine is reporting that Heidi Klum and Seal are set to file for divorce Monday afternoon in L.A. after seven years of marriage!! This is so out of the blue!

Sigh, this better be just a nasty rumor.

[Rise Above] is beautiful!

Local Vancouver songstress Tiffany Desrosiers has released her first music video for the power ballad [Rise Above]. Wow, it’s so beautiful.

A pop-classical crossover that tugs at the heartstrings. Her voice is strong and relentless in its ability to make you feel all her emotions.

Tiffany has performed with such icons as David Foster and Ben Harper. She has got a female Josh Groban vibe to her and I think this is just the beginning of a long and successful career!

Whitney Houston is back on the big screen!

Nice to see my girl Whit gettin’ her career back on track!

Yeah, the first still from the remake of the musical film Sparkle starring Whitney Houston and Jordin Sparks has hit the net! There’s not a whole lot going on in the photo, but I’m psyched none the less!

They both looks great!

Elton John and Madonna feud!

It started with a snide red carpet comment at the Golden Globes, and it now appears that the feud is on between Sir Elton John and Madonna.

Prior to the ceremony, Sir Elton told Carson Daly that the Material Girl had “no f*cking chance of winning” in the Best Song category. When her song [Masterpiece] (from the film W.E.) actually beat out his song [Hello Hello] from Gnomeo & Juliet, the disappointment was clear to all. Following the ceremony, Elton’s husband David Furnish proclaimed his strong disapproval on Facebook, calling her win “undeserved”.

Four days later, Furnish took to Facebook to take back his comments, saying that his passion for Gnomeo & Juliet got the better of him.

Is the feud on or is this just a case of sour grapes?

Etta James has died!

Legendary singer, Etta James, has died of complications from leukemia. Her husband and sons were with her as she passed away in Riverside, California. She would have been 74 next Wednesday.

Possibly best known for her rendition of [At Last], The Matriarch of Rhythm and Blues’ stellar career spanned almost 60 years and multiple genres of music including soul, gospel, jazz, blues and, rock and roll. Later in life, along with a 2010 diagnosis of leukemia, she also suffered from dementia and hepatitis C.

Etta’s appeal also crossed generations. In 2011, rapper Flo Rida’s [Good Feeling] contained a sampling of Etta’s [Something's Got A Hold On Me].

Rest in peace, Miss Peaches.
