Prince Harry dumped his girlfriend “Flee”, and he’s coming to Arizona

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 08:54 AM PDT

I haven't done much, if any coverage of Prince Harry's girlfriend of two months or so, Florence Brudenell-Bruce. You know why? Because I took one look at that chick and thought, "This too shall pass." Sure, "Flee" (or whatever her nickname was) is pretty and blonde, and she had the right mix of trashy (lingerie pinup modeling shots) and classy (she lives a middle-class life, much like Kate Middleton used to), but it was pretty clear that the media and Harry's family wanted Flee to happen more than Harry wanted it. To him, Flee was just another blonde, one of many that were interchangeable. Anyway, Harry and Flee broke up. Predictable.

Prince Harry and model Florence Brudenell-Bruce have gone their separate ways as he concentrates on his army career, according to Tuesday’s Daily Mirror.

The paper claims Harry, 26, doesn’t want to commit to any relationship while he’s in the midst of getting “combat ready” in his helicopter training – though he did enjoy spending time with Brudenell-Bruce, 25, this summer.

A source close to the royal family tells PEOPLE, “He is so focused on the army and seems intent of going back to the war zone.”

The prince and the lingerie model, whose nickname is Flee, have not been seen publicly together since they were first said to be dating in late June.

Two weeks ago, Harry visited Majorca with some friends and was on vacation in the U.K. before returning to his Army Air Corps base.

In the final stages of learning to pilot Apache attack helicopters, the prince is headed to Arizona, where he’ll remain until the Christmas holidays in order to train over the rocky, desert terrain.

I knew it didn't look good for Flee when Harry went on that vacation without her. Poor girl - used and tossed aside by the Ginger Prince. Something tells me that Chelsy Davy is getting some drunk phone calls right about now… he's probably proclaiming his undying love to her as we speak. What is Chelsy’s hold on him? I don't get it.

But Harry's coming to Arizona?!? Arizona sluts, get ready. Every girl in Arizona needs to go blonde! One of you (at least) needs to get Harry to forget about Chelsy. And then, nine months after his visit, lots of ginger babies are going to born in Arizona.

Russell Armstrong, Taylor from RHOBH’s husband, committed suicide

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 08:29 AM PDT

In very sad, shocking news, Russell Armstrong, Taylor Armstrong from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ estranged husband, is dead in an apparent suicide. TMZ just covered the news that Russell was found hanged.

Russell Armstrong, the estranged husband of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Taylor Armstrong, was found dead of an apparent suicide …sources tell TMZ.

Our sources say Armstrong hanged himself. He was found hanging in his bedroom on Mulholland Drive.

We’re told L.A. City Fire Department arrived at his home and pronounced him dead at 8:16 PM Monday. Sources say a roommate found Russell and called 911.

We’re told authorities have not found a suicide note.

Taylor filed for divorce last month, after she claimed Russell physically abused her. We’re told authorities informed her of Russell’s death last night.

He was 47 years old.

[From TMZ]

Recently Russell’s abusive past was uncovered when the news came out that two ex girlfriends had taken out restraining orders against him. Taylor has also accused him of physical abuse, with the National Enquirer reporting that he dislocated her jaw, punched her in the eye, and tried to keep her from going to the hospital afterwards for treatment.

Russell was also facing multiple lawsuits from bad business deals in which he was basically accused of running a ponzi scheme. He had also been convicted of felony tax evasion. So he had a lot of very serious personal issues. It’s very sad that he took his own life, especially for his five year-old daughter with Taylor, Kennedy.

Gwyneth Paltrow thinks plastic surgery, Botox are “gimmicks” for peasants

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 08:26 AM PDT

I don't know if Gwyneth Paltrow really said any of this stuff - this whole interview comes from a New Zealand media outlet's translation of an interview with Gwyneth in the German edition of OK! Magazine. So, if OK! Germany got an interview with Goop, and if the translation is right, and if this whole thing wasn't made up entirely, then Gwyneth is made of goopy lies. According to this web of gossip, Gwyneth claims that she would never NEVER deign to do "gimmicky" (re: "peasanty") forms of plastic surgery, and she "refuses" to do Botox (haha, LIES). But! Gwyneth is pro-boob job. Amazing, if it's true:

Gwyneth Paltrow believes cosmetic surgery is “pure vanity”. The Hollywood actress is famed for her stunning natural looks and slender frame and is regularly praised for her elegant style.

Paltrow insists she wouldn’t use any “gimmicky” forms of surgery, but wouldn’t rule out having her breasts enhanced. The 38-year-old beauty has kids Apple and Moses and says without surgery, her breasts will never be what they were before pregnancy.

“Before I didn’t care about it. And I still refuse to use silicone, Botox or other of those gimmicks out of pure vanity. But a breast correction after breast feeding — why not? There’s actually nothing else to restore the original condition, isn’t there?” she laughed in an interview with the German edition of OK! magazine.

Paltrow is known for her intensive exercise regimes, including yoga. Although there aren’t always enough hours in the day to complete her thorough workout, she tries to fit in at least a few minutes a day.

“I don’t have time to do real yoga sessions that last over 60 minutes,” she said. “But I meditate each day for at least five minutes.”

Paltrow claimed her intensive yoga session “ruined” her body for a period of time. The exercise diminished her curves, and her physique looked “boxy”.

“Yes that was strange. I somehow lost my waist because of intense yoga training and became almost boxy,” she explained. “But with stretching and Pilates exercises I hit form again.”

[From Cleo]

I like how she makes it seem like she hasn't already jacked her face (remember this?), and like she hasn't already gotten her boobs "perked up" with some kind of procedure (remember this?). To be fair, I don't think Gwyneth has gotten a facelift, and she hasn't gotten her eyes done or anything. But the goopy bitch is hitting the 'Tox on the regular, and I personally believe that she's already gotten her boobs done. How gimmicky. How gauche. How peasanty. How GOOP.

Angelina Jolie wears a trash bag, takes her girls to the toy store again

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 07:37 AM PDT

Here are some photos of Angelina taking her two oldest girls to a store in Richmond - the same toy store they went to a few weeks ago. I guess the girls had some stuff on lay-away? Haha. Am I alone in having moments of lower-middle-class-ness and having a mother who would put stuff on lay-away? It's funny to think Angelina could have been like, "Er, can you hold this for me for two weeks, I have to find some way to pay for it!"

Here's the question of the day: WTF is with Angelina Jolie and the trash bag couture? It's not like this is the first time she's worn an outfit resembling a trash bag - remember this? She likes her clothes like she likes her Hefty bags - shiny, plastic and black. Perhaps trash bag style is easier to clean for all of her dominatrix duties? Mistress Hefty. Knowing Angelina, this is probably something new that she picked up and now she's going to wear this shiny, fug camisole for the next two years in photo-ops. Sigh… I miss that fug black hippie dress that she used to wear all the time. I wonder wear that is? She probably left it France.

As for the girls - Zahara looks pissed off that she's being photographed, as usual. Maybe she's just mad that her mom put her toys on lay-away…? Maybe she's mad that her mom is wearing a camisole made out of an old Hefty. Shiloh, meanwhile, continues to stick her tongue out at everyone. You know what I always look at on Shiloh? Her nose! Where did she get that nose? Is that Angelina's or Brad's? I always assumed Angelina got a nose job when she was teenager, but Shiloh's nose looks a lot like Angelina's current nose, so… (gasp)… is that Angelina's original nose?

Jennifer Love Hewitt reveals new hair: cute or fug?

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 07:26 AM PDT

I used to like Jennifer Love Hewitt and found her rather sweet. She’s kind of clueless when it comes to relationships, and she regularly broadcasts that cluelessness and even published a book about it, but she’s harmless. Now that she’s on Twitter constantly and seems to be papping herself on a regular basis, I’m a little over her. (Do you think she has paparazzi following her every day? She hasn’t had a wide release movie out since 2006’s Garfield 2, and she doesn’t have a TV series running since Ghost Whisperer was canceled in 2010. Her Client List show just got picked up by Lifetime though.)

J.Love’s hair before:

Anyway Hewitt got a hair cut, or just removed her extensions and got bangs straight across her forehead. She revealed the cut in two well photographed outings over the past two days, one with a “mystery guy,” and both in questionable outfits. She also of course posted a photo of her new hair on Twitter. I don’t think it looks too bad. I’m not a bangs fan, but I’m not against them per se. Kaiser says it’s pretty awful, but to me the real tragedy is her fashion. Check out the outfit where she’s wearing a navy blue see-through dress with a bizarre Ed Hardy-like pattern across the front. At first I thought that was a concert t-shirt paired with a skirt. At least she has on some shorts things under there so we’re not looking at her undies. She wore this yesterday to an outing on Melrose in which she tried on jewelry and mugged for the paparazzi.

Then on Sunday, J.Love went out in some kind of floral romper (I hate those, but some women can pull them off) and sneakers. She was with a guy that the photo agency couldn’t identify. It looks like he could be her brother, as Wiki says she has an older brother and this guy has similar coloring to her, but I can’t verify that. Plus the guy looks younger than her (she’s 32) to me. The last we heard of J.Love’s love life she was flying out to go on a date with Bachelorette runner up Ben Flajnik after picking him up on Twitter. Ben may be the next Bachelor, though, so he’s probably not going to pass up that chance in order to be the boyfriend of a C-lister.

Here’s the photo agency’s description of Hewitt’s outing on Sunday with this guy:

Actress Jennifer Love Hewitt made her way out of Sharky's eatery in Toluca Lake, California on August 14, 2011 with a young mystery man. J-Love and the young man took separate cars back to her home nearby. Has the "Ghost Whisper" star moved on that quickly after her recent date with “Bachelorette” reject, Ben Flajnik, who is said to be the next hopeful candidate for the upcoming season of “The Bachelor”.

[From Fame Pictures photo description]

It doesn’t look like a date, but you never know. Only one agency had these photos at least, so at least she’s trying to play it “coy.” She’s so happy in these other photos with the blue dress that I still find myself feeling some affection for her. It’s like she’s grateful we’re paying attention. She’s not feigning disinterest like a Kardashian. Bless her, as they say in the south.

Salma Hayek covers Allure: “I’ve never had anything done on my face”

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 07:06 AM PDT

Oooh, Salma! Salma covers the September issue of Allure Magazine, likely to promote her voice work in Puss in Boots (the Shrek spinoff with Antonio Banderas) and her new skincare line. But Salma has another agenda too - to make Linda Evangelista sorry that she ever looked at Salma's billionaire husband, Francois-Henri Pinault. Salma gets some subtle digs in, especially when she's talking about how her daughter is growing up wealthy. Allegedly, Pinault puts $50,000 a MONTH in Valentina's trust, plus, you know, he's actually a hands-on father with Valentina, where his son Augie, with Linda, has gotten nothing. I also think Salma is making a dig at Linda, who famously does Botox, when Salma talks about how she's all-natural. The Allure slideshow is here, and here are some excerpts:

Salma on her skin: Hayek has worked for her astonishingly young-looking skin. “My career has given me a lot of experience to be under pressure of having to be beautiful, and having to look for tricks to make it work,” says the actress.

She's all natural: Hayek believes in fighting aging—up to a point. “I believe that every woman is entitled to fight to preserve her youth,” she says. But not by becoming overly surgified by celebrity dermatologists. “It’s like the uniform of a generation,” Hayek says. “And it’s not necessarily beautiful. It’s not wrinkled-looking, but it’s not beautiful. I’ve never had anything done on my face,” Hayek insists. “I’ve never had dermabrasion or peels or injections of any kind, nothing.”

Salma on her boobs: Ask Hayek whether any part of her body looked better ten years ago, and she’ll tell you. “My boobs,” she says with a laugh. “They’re not bad, by the way. I’m not complaining about them.” She famously breast-fed a hungry infant in Sierra Leone, where she was promoting a UNICEF initiative to eradicate tetanus. “If you have milk, you have milk, and if they’re hungry, they’re hungry,” she says. “I think it’s a beautiful thing, because motherhood is a very strong place for women to connect and understand each other.”

Confidence: “As a woman, you should be more at ease with your sexuality when you are in your 40s,” she says. “You are more self-assured about that part. And that’s the way it should be. If you are a girl who cannot walk in heels, it doesn’t matter how beautiful you are,” she says. “If you look like a chicken that’s been spiked in the feet, it’s not going to be sexy.”

Bullied at an early age: “I got teased because I was too short, or I was too brown,” she says. (Her complexion is the legacy of her father, a businessman of Lebanese descent.) “You would think in Mexico that would be something normal, but I did get teased,” she says.

Filming love scenes: Hayek first became known in America with Desperado, an action movie starring Antonio Banderas. A love scene between them took eight hours to film rather than the scheduled one hour because of Hayek’s reluctance. “I’m not an exhibitionist,” she says. “It was the first time, so it was very difficult.”

Hayek on her daughter, being rich: Hayek says of her daughter, who speaks English, Spanish, and French: “I never understood the point of being privileged if you don’t get to have the privileges. Like, people who won’t take their kids to an expensive restaurant, or won’t travel with them, or make them pay for everything at a really young age. I think it’s important that kids have responsibilities and understand the value of things, but I think it’s great that my daughter gets to travel the world.”

On her beauty line: Hayek’s beauty line is in many ways a tribute to her grandmother, who studied to be a beautician and made potions for government officials and their wives. “She started working on my skin when I was 12 or 13,” Hayek says. “I never used soap on my face. Once, she shaved our heads and put egg on it and all these things. But I have to give her credit—my hair is great.” Hayek believes that it’s possible to offer beauty products that will encourage women’s strengths rather than make them anxious about their weaknesses. “I’m [creating this line] with the philosophy that within you there is beauty, and you have to learn how to find it and enhance it in a natural way…. One thing that is exciting about being a woman is that you can rediscover your beauty over and over and over.”

[From Allure]

I actually do like Salma quite a bit, and I always have, but I think her perspective is very narrow. That's fine - lots of people only see the world through their own narrow point of view, but with Salma, speaking aloft her cushion of wealth and privilege, it does seem like she's out of touch. She was blessed with a great face, great skin, a great body, and she worked hard in Hollywood and then married a billionaire… none of this is particularly inspiring. Which is fine - some people are born with a head start, and do great things with that head start. But Salma puts herself out there like she's relating to every woman, like her experiences have been like everyone else's.

Kate Plus 8 has been canceled, how will Kate make ends meet?

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 06:35 AM PDT

The last time we heard from Kate Gosselin, she was on the Today Show a couple of weeks ago to promote her TLC series Kate Plus 8. Kate said at the time that if her show had been canceled she wasn’t aware of it. She also gave some boring quotes about how her kids were hoping she’d remarry but that she hadn’t really dated anyone after her divorce. (Apart from boning the married security guard and lying about it.) We usually report on Kate because we’ve followed her over the years and it’s so easy to snark on her, but I didn’t even bother covering that interview. It looks like everyone else is over Kate too, because the show she stars in with her kids has been canceled.

Kate Gosselin’s days as a reality star are done for now.

TLC – the network that gave viewers a firsthand glimpse of Kate’s tumultuous and highly publicized split from ex-husband Jon Gosselin while they continued to raise their eight children – will no longer follow the 36-year-old and her brood with cameras.

“TLC has decided not to renew another season of Kate Plus 8,” a network rep told PEOPLE in a statement. “By the end of this season Kate Plus 8 will have hit the 150 episode mark (including Jon & Kate Plus 8); an exceptional milestone. TLC hopes to check in with Kate and the family periodically with specials in the future.”

[From People]

Kate needed to step up her game if she wanted to keep her show on the air. She can’t just talk about wanting to date someday, she should have had the cameras follow her on actual dates to capture the horrified look on the guys’ faces as they realized what a control freak piece of work she is. What’s next for her and her kids now? She’ll probably try and milk this for as much as she can and go on a speaking tour or something. You know she’s not going to go back to being a nurse. I also assume that she hasn’t saved enough to live on for more than a year, given how expensive her house was and how little savings she had in 2009 when Jon emptied out their accounts. Not that I feel for her at all.

Meanwhile Kate’s ex husband Jon Gosselin has given an interview to Radar saying that he hopes “that this will bring more privacy to my children and that they can get the proper attention they need for any personal issues they might have in the future.” Jon was opposed to having his children on the show, and caused a stink back in 2009 to try and stop production. TLC gave him the legal smack down though and filed suit to prevent him from making money from media appearances. It looks like this family is just about to fade away, and I hope that Kate’s kids have enough good people around them to be able to manage the transition. I’m not saying that they needed to be on camera, just that the crew were probably very attentive to them in a way their mother is not capable of.

After I wrote all that, I saw on Radar that Kate Gosselin has been tweeting up a storm. I’m not going to repeat what she’s written, except to say that the bitch is clinging to fame, hopes to keep her kids on TV, and that she sounds a hell of a lot like LeAnn Rimes.

Will Jessica Simpson postpone her wedding because of weight gain?

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 06:26 AM PDT

These are some new photos of Jessica Simpson and her fiancé Eric Johnson at last night's Adele concert at the Greek Theater in LA. Lots of celebrities came out for Adele - Christina Aguilera, the Glee kids and SPARKLES! I love that Sparkles loves Adele. I love that Jessica Simpson loves Adele. Everyone loves Adele! Yay! As for Jessica, at first I thought she had chopped off her hair and dyed the back hot pink… but these are just really fug earrings. Disappointing, I know. For some reason, I kind of think Jessica would look cute with hot pink hair, and I generally hate that look on adult women. For Jess, I'll make an exception, though.

By the way, you can't see much of Jessica's body in these photos, but to me, she actually looks slimmer than she has in the past, which means that she's actually following The Tracy Anderson Method effectively (unlike Kim Kardashian, who is gaining weight with The Method). Still, in last week's In Touch Weekly, sources claimed that Jessica was considering pushing back her (alleged) November wedding because she hadn't lost as much weight as she was expecting:

"Instead of losing weight, Jessica has gained it," reveals a friend. The problem is that between planning the perfect wedding and running her $1 billion fashion empire, Jessica's been running herself ragged.

"She works so much that she doesn't have the time to spend with Tracy Anderson," explains the friend. Jessica has been so busy, she's also neglected her diet, and the weight's crept on.

"She's always eating on the go," adds the friend. "She gave herself one year to get in perfect shape, but now the wedding is just a few months away - and she's panicking," reveals the friend.

Jessica is so distraught about her failed attempts to say no to tasty treats, she's even considering pushing her big day back.

"She was rethinking her plans because she fears that she won't look good in a wedding dress," the friend reveals.

Jessica was planning a wedding for November 11, 2011, but with three months to go, she's having serious doubts that she would be ready. "She wants to postpone," confirms the friend.

Which is a problem - since Jessica and Eric have already block-booked rooms at the ritzy St. Regis Princeville Resort in Kauai, Hawaii, and charters a private jet to fly out their guests. So instead of giving up, "Jessica is going to put everything on hold until she sees if she can lose the weight and get her body in perfect shape for her wedding day."

[From In Touch Weekly, print edition]

Eh. I really hope Jessica isn't as worked up about her weight as the tabloids are. Even when she's heavy, she's still prettier than most girls, and I think, shock of shocks, Jessica actually found a guy who doesn't care what her dress size is. Eric loves her and her bank account, just the way it is. That being said, I do wonder if Jessica is actually going to get married in November. Does anyone else think that Farty might be rethinking the whole thing for non-weight-related issues? I don't know, it feels like it.

Look how good her legs look - Farty is working the program! And this guy photo-bombing Jessica and Eric is ridiculous.

Teen bride Courtney Stodden does a Pamela Anderson photoshoot, looks just as old

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 06:24 AM PDT

I’m pretty sure we already saw at least one of these photos of teen bride Courtney Stodden, who is “happily” married to character actor Doug Hutchison, 51, posing in a red bathing suit to look like Pamela Anderson in Baywatch circa when she was hot. Now there are more photos of Courtney trying to bring the sexy with comically contorted expressions, over-the-top poses and a bathing suit that is way too high cut. Courtney posted these on what appears to be her official Facebook. She tweeted about it too, writing “Just completed my session; Court does Pam! XO’s”

Some of her other tweets are so suggestive they make me cringe:
A soft sensation sweetly kisses my body as I prepare for a sexy hot photo shoot this afternoon. What a breathtaking morning it has been!

Stepped my paws into a sexy wet cat-suit; Prowling mysteriously around the house while lickin’ my lips searchin’ for some nip! MEEEOWWW!

I assume that Doug wrote that ridiculous crap, not Courtney. It’s gross.

I don’t want to make fun of this girl since she’s so very young and clearly under the influence of a stage mother who groomed her to turn out this way and then convinced her that it was fine to marry a dude older than her dad. She’s only 16, and while I didn’t believe that at first some Facebook inquiries I made to people who grew up with her (and were commenting about her on Facebook well before this scandal came out) confirmed her age. E! News was also able to find her birth certificate, which lists her date of birth as August 29, 1994. At least she’ll be 17 in a couple of weeks, not that it made her legal before her mom and dad signed off on her marriage to a old guy they swear isn’t a creepy predator.

So this is Courtney, and she seems to have been raised to become this parody of a sex kitten. It’s funny but sad, and kind of a sad commentary on the state of the media too. This is just one example of the slippery slope of our reality show culture. It remains to be seen whether she’ll get even more mileage out of this marriage, and whether it’s “real” or a publicity stunt. I’m hoping for her sake that it’s all a put on, but I doubt that she’s that convincing of an actress.

Heidi Klum’s bikini body: healthy, sexy or too skinny?

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 05:58 AM PDT

Yesterday, some sites carried topless photos of Heidi Klum, who was photographed on her family vacation in Porto Cervo, Sardinia. Heidi was just hanging out topless with her kids on a public beach, and it looked like fun, although I'm sure there are some people who are like, "Topless?!?" But as CB always says, Germans are basically nudists. Anyway, we didn't carry the photos, although we had access to those pics, just because we're trying not to be so nipple-friendly these days. I'd be lying if I said I didn't check out the state of Heidi's boobs and body after giving birth to four kids (it's four, right?). You can too, if you like looking at boobs - go here.

Anyway, here are some more photos from Heidi's vacation - for the rest of the time, Heidi wore a bikini top. I think people critical of Heidi should keep in mind several things: one, she's given birth to four kids; two, she's not being air-brushed and Photoshopped in these pics; three, she's not wearing heels, which really does make your body look different; and four, she eats. So, with all of that being said and then some, I think Heidi looks great. She looks like what she is - a runner who eats, who has good genes and takes care of herself.

By the way, have you guys been watching Project Runway's new season? I haven't. I've made a conscious decision to stop watching, and to change the channel when it's on. I'm not going through another debacle like last season. Anyway, Lifetime is going to be doing a "Project Runway All Stars" with some of the best, fan-favorite designers returning to compete against other fan-favorites from other seasons. Heidi is not going to host! Angela Lindvall is going to be the hostess. Heidi tweeted, "To all my Runway fans, I didn’t do All Stars because our original team of Tim, Michael & Nina was not complete. There is no other reason. To follow-up on my last post, many people have been asking about Project Runway All Stars and I just wanted to set the record straight.”
