1. Lady Gaga
2. Justin Bieber
3. George Clooney
4. Will and Jada Pinkett Smith

Maybe we can all take a play from these young celebs’ playbook and be better versions of ourselves in 2012. So grab a friend, or two, or ten and get out there and DO SOMETHING!!!

Justin Bieber’s Baby Mama Drama Continues
Written by Kelly Bandas on November 11, 2011 – 9:13 am -And if you can “beliebe” it, things just got more dramatic!
Apparently, Mariah Yeater, the woman who’s been harassing Justin Bieber about being the father of her three-month-old son, has a more sullied past than we thought!
The 20-year-old’s mother Michelle Yeater, was arrested back in November 2007 for battery with serious bodily injury, when she attacked a convenience store clerk and sent her to the hospital.
Ouch!
Yeater Sr. served two years in prison for the offense, before being released on probation. I don’t know about you, but I think this may damage Ms. Yeater’s credibility just a tad.
Although, now that I take a better look – that baby does look like he has Bieber-ific lips.
The saga continues…

Kim Kardashian Files for Divorce from Kris Humphries
Written by Kelly Bandas on October 31, 2011 – 2:18 pm -After only 72 days of marriage socialite Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from her husband, NBA star Kris Humphries.
Weird. 72 is the exact number of days you have to stay married in order to not have to return the $17 million dollars you banked from your wedding. What a krazy koincidence…
Ryan Seacrest, executive producer of the hit E! reality show “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” confirmed the news about the split earlier this morning via his Twitter account.
Yes @kimkardashian is filing for divorce this morning. I touched base with her, getting a statement in just a few mins.
Kardashian cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the break up and the couple, who did sign a prenup before the wedding, will not be seeking an annulment.
Regarding the ending of her brief marriage, Kim issued the following statement:
After careful consideration, I have decided to end my marriage. I hope everyone understands this was not an easy decision. I had hoped this marriage was forever, but sometimes things don’t work out as planned. We remain friends and wish each other the best.
It’s always sad to see a marriage end, but these two just gave up after only 2 1/2 months of being husband and wife. All I can say is – I want my toaster over back.

Justin Bieber Surprises Selena Gomez… Again!
Written by Kelly Bandas on October 23, 2011 – 8:34 am -Ever-the-romantic, teen heartthrob Justin Bieber has once again pulled out all the stops to impress actress girlfriend Selena Gomez.
The 17-year-old, who last month rented out the Staples Center for a surprise private screening of Titanic, pulled a similar stunt this week in Winnipeg, Manitoba when he rented an entire movie theater so he and his boo could watch Real Steal in peace.
Real Steel? Not quite the same romantic caliber as Titanic, but to each his own, I suppose.
According to sources, the couple had a pizza delivered to them at the theater and were whisked away in a black SUV after the movie – which is a helluva lot cooler than having your mom pick you up in her minivan…

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries Breaking Up?
Written by Kelly Bandas on October 21, 2011 – 7:26 pm -New Jersey Nets star Kris Humphries may have just put a ring on Kim Kardashian over the summer, but the newlyweds are already fighting off break up rumors galore – including several magazine cover stories insisting the happy couple is headed for divorce.
So is it true or false? Are Kim and Kris hitting the skids or have the paparazzi simply run out of celebs to torment this week?
If you guessed false… you’re right!
According to sources close to the couple, despite the fact that Humphries was seen “moving out” of the home he shares with Kardashian, the pair couldn’t be happier. Apparently, photogs caught Kris with some cardboard boxes he and Kim were using to move out of the Gansevoort Hotel and jumped to some pretty serious conclusions.
Imagine that. The paparazzi jumping to conclusions. What is this world coming to?

Lindsay Lohan Headed to Jail?
Written by Kelly Bandas on October 19, 2011 – 1:23 pm -Troubled starlet Lindsay Lohan was handcuffed and led from an L.A. superior courtroom today after Judge Stephanie Saunter announced that the 25-year-old had violated her probation by being booted from her community service detail at the Downtown Women’s Center.
Oh my gosh, never have I ever been so surprised about anything in my whole life… (Please note the sarcasm here.)
Judge Saunter, who set Lohan’s bail at $100,000, apparently has had enough of Lohan getting preferential treatment from the courts and ordered that none of the actress’ time spent volunteering at the American Red Cross after leaving her DWC detail could count towards her mandated community service hours. The clearly agitated judge went on to add,
No one has the power to change my sentence… Not the volunteer center and not probation. She is not getting credit for any time at the American Red Cross.
You go Judge!
A rep for Lohan told E! News that,
Lindsay is hoping this matter will be resolved on Nov. 2 and the Court will reinstate probation and allow her to continue fulfilling her community service.
Until that time, Lindsay’s probation has been revoked and the former Disney sweetheart could be looking at some pretty serious time in the slammer.

Ashley Greene Dating Spiderman
Written by Kelly Bandas on October 11, 2011 – 8:46 am -Okay, okay, he’s not actually Spiderman, but pretty close, right?
According to the latest edition of US Weekly, Twilight star Ashley Greene and Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark (you know, the weird Spiderman musical?) star Reeve Carney are officially an item.
A source close to the couple revealed that,
Ashley has always had a crush on Reeve and he finally was into it…
Finally into it? Have you seen this girl? You do not say “No” to Ashley Greene. Am I right fellas?
Another source added that,
Ashley has been pining after Reeve for a long time. She’s super close with Reeve’s family and loves spending time with Paris, his sister, when they’re both in L.A.
Even though celebrity romances are like delicate little flowers, the new couple doesn’t seem at all interested in keeping their blossoming love connection under wraps. On Tuesday Greene 24, and Carney 28, hit up PH-D at Dream Downtown (which I guess is a uber-happenin’ discotheque) where “Greene requested DJ Jesse Marco play LMFAO’s “Sexy And I Know It” so she could show off with her new man.
Get it gurrrrrrl!

Taylor Swift Named Billboard’s Woman of the Year
Written by Kelly Bandas on October 11, 2011 – 8:26 am -Billboard Magazine officially announced this week that country recording artist Taylor Swift will be receiving the “Woman of the Year” award at the 2011 Billboard Women in Music event on Dec. 2 in New York City.
Raise your hand if you’re surprised.
Swift, who’s sold more records than, well, anyone in the past year, is the youngest artist to ever receive this honor – and it makes sense: At 21, she’s already won four Grammy Awards, gone quintuple platinum and been bum-rushed onstage by an angry hip-hop artist. So yeah, she’s pretty advanced.
According to Bill Werde, Billboard’s Editorial Director,
Taylor has shown the power of good songwriting with music that has transcended genres, and we’re thrilled to recognize all of her successes over the past year by honoring her with the Billboard Woman of the Year Award… At the young age of 21, Taylor has already made a major impact on music and has been an incredible role model for aspiring singers/songwriters and young women everywhere. I look forward to watching her career continue to flourish in the years to come.
Kind of makes you want to get up off the couch and do something, don’t it?
Congrats Taylor!
