This Video Of Miley Crooning Off-Key Can’t Be Real, Right?

Miley Cyrus Today Show Fail - watch more funny videos

We’ve heard Miley Cyrus sing live before at VH1 Divas (No shame here, people! She was kinda amazing.) and we highly doubt this video – which claims to be of her singing way, way off-key on “The Today Show” - is real. It doesn’t even try to fake us out, like that magical Beyonce video did, but it’s still fun for a laugh. So if you want to close your eyes and imagine what it would sound like if Miley’s voice was secretly god awful, go right ahead. We’ll be over here having a “Party In The USA” dance party until you finish.

David Beckham’s Crotch Grabbed By Italian Reporter, Star “Not Pleased”

David Beckham recently got the bad touch from Italian TV host Elena Di Cioccio in what’s easily the most inappropriate red carpet interview since Isaac Mizrahi fondled Scarlett Johansson‘s breast at the Golden Globes four years ago. But where the fashion designer was cluelessly caught up in the moment, Di Cioccio knew exactly what she was doing—pondering whether the soccer star’s package was as “Enorme” as Beckham’s Armani ads suggest, donning yellow gloves and practicing her lunge before hand. As clear in the clip above from her show Le Iene (translation: The Hyenas), Beckham was not pleased—and neither was Di Cioccio. “I touched it but it’s small,” she screamed as security ushered him away. “David you have conned us all. What did you use cotton wool? It’s all a trick!”

“David was not at all pleased with this stunt. He didn’t know what was going on and luckily the security team stepped in and stopped her having another go,” a representative told the Metro. As Dlisted notes, would anyone be laughing if a guy had groped Victoria Beckham‘s genitalia while she answered questions on the carpet? OK, yeah, some people would—but this is one trend that could easily end in a lawsuit. Anyone entranced by a celebrity’s physique would be better off just fondling themselves.

Tara Reid Is Engaged!

Tara Reid & Michael Axtmann

Tara Reid and boyfriend Michael Axtmann—pictured above at last year’s Oktoberfest in Munich—are making it official. Internet entrepeneur Axtmann proposed to the American Pie star, previously engaged to Carson Daly in 2001, over dinner Monday. “Michael surprised Tara with a beautiful round brilliant cut ring,” said her rep. “Tara was so happy, and the other patrons clapped and yelled out, ‘Congratulations.’” Ironically, Reid was denying engagement plans only two months ago.

Along with Daly, Reid previously dated a series of athletes including Tom Brady and tennis star Mark Philippoussis. Though her films have a had a hard time making it to movie screens since 2005′s tanker Alone In The Dark (the same year she began her flop E! show Taradise), Reid made the cover of Playboy last month, posing topless and discussing her experiences with plastic surgery inside.

Michael Lohan and Kate Major Challenge Jon Gosselin, Abandon Puppy

Michael Lohan & Kate Major

Jon Gosselin may want nothing to do with ex-girlfriend Kate Major and former buddy Michael Lohan, but the business partners/skating buddies sure want a piece of him. “Listen Mr. Jon Gosselin, it’s about time you man up and accept the offer and get in the ring,” Major told Radar, demanding JoGo face MiLo for one of those Celebrity Boxing matches Lindsay’s dad is always putting on. “For once in your life, face up to somebody you’ve hurt and take it down, Jon. Take it down.” She’s also got harsh words for JoGo’s latest ladyfriend, Morgan Christie. “I don’t know if she missed out on the last year, but I’d really like to warn her and her family to really look at the type of person that Jon is and look at what he did to his other ex’s.” But with TLC’s muzzle, could JoGo make an appearance even if he wanted to?

In case this wasn’t enough less-than-classy Lohan news for you, TMZ reports that Lohan got Major a shelter puppy for Christmas—a dog they then abandoned at a veternarian’s office after it wrecked her apartment and needed heartworm treatment. Major, unsurprisingly, is less than penitent. “We rescued the dog and the dog had a lot more problems and they did not make us aware of the issues. The dog destroyed the house…the shelter told us they had someone else to adopt. It’s pathetic that someone needs to use press to get their rescue shelter in the news.” Tough talk from a woman famous for f—ing a reality show star, and now using a tabloid to challenge him to a boxing match.

Heidi Montag’s Album Sales Soar To Almost 700

58932562

Remember last week when Heidi Montag was claiming that she spent millions of dollars on her new album, Superficial, and said it would be as big as a Britney Spears or Michael Jackson album? Now that the album has been released, the numbers are in, and, um, they are hilariously bad. A mere 658 copies were sold (as downloads) to date, Us Magazine is reporting. We’re pretty sure our local subway station busker does better business. (And forget the X-Factor, we have an idea for a show where Simon Cowell judges celebrities who want to be musicians but suck, we’d love to hear what he has to say about Heidi.)

That’s not the only bad news Heidi has to deal with either. Monday on Access Hollywood, Heidi told Billy Bush she had some pretty major health complications as a result of her ten plastic surgery procedures, and told him “I almost died after my procedure. I had too much Demerol like Michael Jackson did and my breathing was five breaths per minute which is like almost dead. [I was] in an aftercare center, there were nurses that were supposed to be tending to me at all times.” When asked by the program whether this was true, the attending plastic surgeon Dr. Frank Ryan replied “That didn’t happen as far as I know.” Good try, Heid.

Maybe poor album sales are just karma for lying about being on your deathbed. Hopefully Heidi’s next big procedure will be to have her jaw wired shut. [Photo: Getty Images]

Jennifer Lopez Takes A Short Cut

Jennifer Lopez

Looks like Jennifer Aniston isn’t the only actress who’s “fun, flirty and 40!” Jennifer Lopez wore a low-cut, strapless Louis Vitton mini-dress to make up artist Scott Barnes‘ About Face launch party last night, taking a sharp left from the sexy skin-tight full body jumpsuit she wore on New Year’s Eve (not to mention that striped tent she wore last month). She may or may not have deserved an Oscar for El Cantante, but this mother of two is definitely still a Fly Girl.

Beyonce And Madonna Added To “Hope for Haiti” Telethon

Now that Beyonce and Madonna have been announced as performers, is there anyone left to add to the Hope for Haiti Now lineup? Kanye West seems plausible, but allegedly his mouth is too big. Lady Gaga is another possibility, but she’d probably distract people from donating by wearing a diorama of an earthquake scene on her head.

In addition to performances by Madge and Bey, more than 100 of the “biggest names in film, television and music” will be on hand to either perform, speak or answer phones. We’ve already listed out most of the big names, but there are some notable additions that have just been announced: Haitian artist Emeline Michel, Clint Eastwood, Denzel Washington, Tom Hanks and Will Smith with Muhammad Ali. The event will air Friday at 8PM EST on VH1, MTV and just about every other channel on your TV. Brace yourself for the biggest telethon in history, and don’t forget to have your wallet on hand.

Official press release after the jump.

Ke$ha On Paris Hilton: “We Are Not Friends”

Ke$ha

Is Paris Hilton losing her cool? “Um, when the f— was she cool?” you might ask, but bear with us. Though trashtastic pop singer Ke$ha got some hype for having puked in the heiress’ closet during a party, she told Us that she’s nothing like—and has nothing to do with—the Simple Life star she once sang back-up for. “Honey, we are not friends. We’ve just been connected on one too many places and levels. I don’t have anything against her. I think she’s really nice, but we’re just very different. I’m just not that kind of party girl. I’m a whopping good time and have been to a few pretty badass parties in my day, but it’s never about what I’m wearing, what brands I’m wearing…” However diplomatic Ke$ha’s being about it, the fact that a hot young singer with a #1 single doesn’t want to be Paris’ new BFF says something about Hilton’s place in pop culture.

“I think what’s sexiest is a girl in an old T-shirt and cut-offs,” she continued. “It’s funny and confident and sexy. You don’t necessarily have to be wearing spandex and a push-up bra and 10-inch high heels. I just don’t think it’s necessary.” Looks like these two won’t be sharing bikini time at Cannes anytime soon! But even if Ke$ha and her fans don’t agree that diamonds (and designer clothing) are a girl’s best friend, Paris will still have her designers and diamonds.

RPattz’s New Movie Is Packed With Sex Scenes. Excited?

robert-pattinson

Yes. Yes, we are 100% out of our minds excited to watch Robert Pattinson seduce a bunch of hot chicks in his new movie Bel Ami, which goes into production this winter. Who isn’t? Sure he’s awkward, but that’s what makes him sooo0 sexy (insert coo here) and we’re tired of sitting through hours of Twilight books and movies only to see him grunt out a kiss or two (yep, we’re counting the days until the Breaking Dawn movie(s) for one reason and one reason only). We want some hardcore, XXX RPattz action!

Okay, so Bel Ami isn’t a porno, but it’ll suffice. Apparently our lil’ Brit plays a shady guy who sleeps his way through every hot woman in Paris, seducing and using ‘em as he goes. Christina Ricci, Uma Thurman, and Kristen Scott Thomas are lined up to play his paramours, and Life&Style reveals that, “one of his sex romps with Christina finds both their characters surprised by the intensity of the racy encounter.” Um, yay?

Leno Strikes With A Low Blow About Letterman’s Marriage

58055098

We, like most other folks we know, have been on Team Conan throughout these late-night wars, but we also admit to being on Team Letterman pretty much all the time. Honestly, we’re on any team Jay Leno isn’t on as his humor isn’t our style, and after last night, we will definitely not be watching the new Tonight Show when it premieres on March 1st.

While it’s no secret that Leno and David Letterman have always had a rivalry and Letterman has been having a field day with this whole NBC late night situation, Leno took things maybe a step too far when he took a pot shot at Letterman’s marriage in his monologue, saying “Letterman’s been hammering me every night. . . you want to know the best way to get Letterman to igore you? Marry him!” (You can watch the episode here.) Call us sensitive, but that seems like a low blow, since the barbs slung at Leno have been professional, not personal. Still, Leno is having the last laugh because he gets to give America what they really want: more Bill Clinton and O.J. Simpson jokes. [Photo: Getty Images]
