Olivia Wilde And Jason Bateman’s Kiss Joins The Parade Of Awkward Celeb PDA

OK, so Jason Bateman and Olivia Wilde’s fish-mouth kiss happened while filming The Longest Week in Brooklyn today, rather than, say, during a romantic date to the aquarium. That being said, that is truly one awkward lip lock. Are we all supposed to be opening our jaws that wide? Have we been doing it wrong this entire time? While we might personally prefer to do our weird, uncomfortable smooching in the privacy of our own homes, we do enjoy cringing at awkward PDAs, provided there are famous peeps involved. With that in mind, please enjoy some of our favorite awkward celeb PDAs. You know they did.

Adults – And Some Kids – Pose On The Kids Choice Awards Orange Carpet

Thoughts of getting slimed at the Kids Choice Awards on Saturday in L.A. didn’t bother the likes of Kourtney Kardashian, Miley Cyrus or Selena Gomez. While Kourtney and Miley turned up in floor length gowns (Miss Cyrus’ even had a long train), Selena went cutesy in a white shorts-sheer top combo while posing with Cory Montieth. Nick Cannon went the white route as well, accessorizing with a pair of large white headphones.

Looking a tad more silly was Josh Duhamel who put on a purple bow tie that matched his shades. The Hilton sisters looked equally demure in shades of beige and white, and we can’t even describe what Willow Smith had on. Two words: gold lurex. Take a look at the list of Kids’s Choice Awards winners if you like, but we think looking at the photos in our gallery below will be a lot more fun! Taylor Momsen actually covered up… you can’t miss that. [Photos: Getty Images]

Nick Cannon Plays An April Fool’s Joke, Says Mariah Carey Is In Labor

Oh, Nick Cannon, we should have known you’d be the kind of guy to get off on a big April Fool’s joke. Cannon fled NY’s 92.3 Now mid-show this morning, announcing “Real talk, I gotta go, my wife!” after taking a phone call, with the station then tweeting “this could be the BIG DAY!!!” Perez Hilton, a regular call-in guest, was told about the hubbub, and quickly posted an exclusive that Mariah was in labor. Cannon’s co-worker Nikki Hesse even said on air “We just spoke to him on the phone. He’s going to airport right now bc (because) she’s in L.A… Confirming news from Nick Cannon… It’s time!! He’s on the way to (the) airport. He is keeping us updated throughout the rest of show. Stay tuned for an update.”

That update did eventually come, on Nick Cannon’s Twitter. “Just pulled the best April Fools’ prank on my radio show 92.3 Now FM. Got to take most of the morning off! LOL Sorry… April Fools.” Needless to say, Perez was pretty pissed, changing the headline “Mariah Carey In Labor” to “Nick Cannon is lame.” Maybe Nick will make it up to him by having Perez be the godfather.

Mariah Carey’s Birthday Baby Scare

Good thing that Mariah Carey‘s babies didn’t decide to make an appearance on her birthday. We’re sure she’s going to be a great Mom, but let the diva have her big day, okay? MC’s birthday was on Sunday, March 27 (happy happies to you), and perhaps the excitement got to her, because she started having contractions on the eve of the big day. Mariah tweeted, “So #dembabies really wanted 2 celebrate w/us/share the anniversary! I started having contractions last night..went 2 the hospital.” Perhaps she was being modest and didn’t want to announce that it was also the birthday? Her third year anniversary with husband, Nick Cannon is on April 30.

She also tweeted the all-clear letting fans know she was okay and that it was just a false alarm, writing, “Finally they said I could come home after they got it under control but..” and then adding, “They almost came on 3/27- happy anniversary in deed!!! We have a few more weeks 2 go but- wow!!!#soreadyallready!” Well, a month to go, but in Mariah-land, celebrations can start whenever she says so. Can’t wait to see #dembabies.

Nickelodeon Teen Stars of the 90s: Then And Now

Nickelodeon was a platform for quite a few young stars to get their start in the world of acting back in the 1990′s. We can admit to watching some of these old shows, and we’re kind of excited to hear that NickTeen is planning to bring back some of our favorites like Clarissa Explains It All, All That, Kenan and Kel, and The Adventures Of Pete And Pete starting this fall. (We’re really hoping that The Secret World Of Alex Mack makes a comeback, too!)

That made us think about just how many stars these shows produced—sure, Melissa Joan Hart and Kenan Thompson are still alive and kicking, but who else came out of these shows and where are they now? Check out our gallery to see what became of these tween stars of yesteryear.

Rumor We Love: Mariah’s Unborn Twins Have Diamond iPods

Certain celebrities are known for their love of luxurious things. Jennifer Lopez, Gwyneth Paltrow, Beyonce and Jay-Z—they’ve all been known to enjoy the finer things in life, but now it seems like Mariah Carey‘s unborn children might put them all to shame. And these people are still fetuses!

Now Magazine reports that Carey and husband Nick Cannon have outfitted a luxury nursery for their babies. The room itself reportedly has “18-carat gold trim, with ivory walls, soft furnishings and walk-in wardrobes full of Petit Trésor designer clothes.” And what of the babies’ home entertainment options? Why, there will also be “a top-of-the-range sound system and they’ll each have diamond-encrusted iPods and a flatscreen TV that comes down from the ceiling.” Diamond-encrusted iPods for infants! This can’t be real, can it? But if it is real it’s the greatest thing we’ve heard all day. Oh, and we forgot to mention that Mariah also purchased a “$1 million red-crushed velvet, 24-carat gold and onyx sofa used for Michael Jackson‘s shows.” Because you gotta relax and listen to your iPod somewhere!

Celebrities Flock Court-Side To Watch The NBA All-Star Game

Sunday night, the NBA All-Star game court-side at the Staples Center in L.A was studded with celebrities. Rihanna put on a raunchy show singing a medley of her hits with guest performers Drake and Kanye West. She spent the rest of the game chilling with one very happy Justin Bieber while Lenny Kravitz sat one space away. It was also Rihanna’s birthday yesterday so can we please have a chorus of Happy Birthday RiRi!

Right by the Biebs and a flame haired Rih’, were superstar couple Jay-Z and a gorgeous Beyonce, who had the sexiest pair of crystal Christian Louboutin skyscraper pumps on. They looked super-relaxed while chowing down on nachos, so screw the rumors that Jay-and-Bey are separating. They weren’t the only ones snacking while watching the game. Rick Fox and Eliza Dushku chowed down too. Ellen Pompeo and her husband Chris Ivery were watching from the crowds as well. What? No court-side tickets, guys?

Also, in one of the oddest seating arrangements ever, Lil Wayne was sitting next to Maria Shriver, who were a couple of seats away from John Legend and girlfriend-supermodel Chrissy Teigen. The Chicago Bulls mascot , Benny the Bull, got lucky, getting Teigen to sit on his lap while Legend took pictures. Looking far more serious were P Diddy and Nick Cannon who sat together. Shriver wasn’t around without her husband, in case you’re wondering. Arnold Schwarzenegger was around chatting with Gene Simmons.

Nick Cannon Wears His Lucky Underpants

In case you’ve ever wondered what’s on Nick Cannon‘s airport checklist, we can tell you right now. Vuitton luggage? Check. Neck pillow? Check. Layers of clothing in case of cool cabin air? Check. Four leaf clover underpants? You bet.

Cannon showed off his skivvies as he was going through security at LAX and to be honest, we always did figure him one for clever underpinnings. Get a close-up look below.

Mariah Carey Announces She’s Having Matching Girl And Boy Divas

Better pre-order those pink and blue Louboutin baby stilettos now: Mariah Carey announced the sex of her twins. According to their press release to Life & Style, Carey will be birthing a fabulous little boy and girl with happy husband Nick Cannon, who revealed Mariah’s due date will be late April or early May. “Even before we announced it was twins, I was trying to keep everything gender-neutral because I didn’t want to impose an identity on them too soon,” Mariah gushed. “There were fan contests on Twitter about what gender they are and rumors about them being two boys or two girls – but nobody guessed this!” Given that we know their sex, can we start imposing an identify on them now? Like, Fiercest Fetuses Ever, or Infants Most Likely To Have Rhinestone-Encrusted Baby Toys?

Cannon confirms baby names have been picked out, but there isn’t an Apple in the bunch. “They won’t be crazy names like Carburetor or something. But they’re definitely unique,” the singer jokes. Let’s see, Michael Jackson already used Prince and Paris, Nic Cage used Superman’s birth name Kal-El…do we have any Hello Kitties yet? She already has that room all set up; they might as well!

It’s Official: Twins Confirmed For Mariah Carey And Nick Cannon

edit

We’ve noticed a pattern about the speculation surrounding Mariah Carey‘s pregnancy: people (like us) throw around some rumors, the star herself stays quiet, and then a few weeks later, Nick Cannon confirms the rumor. That’s what happened when they announced that Mariah was pregnant, and it’s happening again, as the couple proudly confirm the rumor that they’re having twins.

Cannon revealed the news on his radio show, and explained that it was President Obama of all people that dragged the news out of them. Carey performed at the Christmas in Washington 2010 special on Sunday and during a conversation with the President and First Lady, they asked her “So, what are you having, are you having twins?” Mariah and Nick said yes, because you don’t lie to the Commander In Chief, and you especially don’t lie to the Commander In Chief’s wife. Looks like Mariah’s going to have to revise her lyrics to “All I Want For Christmas Is You (Both Of You).”

Congrats to the couple—and we swear, we will finally stop speculating about your womb status now that this is cleared up.
