Kelly Clarkson Covers Cry Me A River Posted: 03 Sep 2012 12:40 PM PDT Kelly Clarkson channeled her inner Justin Timberlake and absolutely nailed this rock solid rendition of Cry Me A River. The video quality isn't fantastic, but just listening to this incredible cover had us shivering from head to toe! If it wasn't as good as Timberlake's original - it was damn close! Ch-ch-check it out for yourself and watch it (above) !!!

Russell Crowe RESCUED By U.S. Coast Guard Posted: 03 Sep 2012 12:20 PM PDT Close call for Russell Crowe!!! This weekend, the Academy Award winner was kayaking with a friend off of the Cold Spring Harbor on the Long Island Sound when they got lost. It was already nighttime, so they decided to head to shore until they could receive help - they were a whole ten miles from where they originally were supposed to land. Luckily, the Coast Guard were patrolling the area around 10 p.m. and heard the Noah actor yell out - the actor and his friend then paddled over the Coast Guard's boat where they were lifted onto the boat and given a ride back to Huntington Harbor. Crowe sent out a special message for his new friends who had picked him up. Here's what he said on Twitter: "Kayak;Cold Spring/Huntington Harbour, thanks to Seth and the boys from the US Coast Guard for guiding the way...4 hrs 30 mins, 7m(11.2km)" We're so glad that the actor is safe and sound! And a big shout out to the Coast Guard who made sure of that. Now that's a CRAZY labor day!!! [Image via Splash News.]

Chris Pine: Star Trek 2 Ain't No Batman! Posted: 03 Sep 2012 12:00 PM PDT Comparing Christopher Nolan's Batman movies to J.J. Abram's Star Trek saga is like comparing apples to oranges. And no one knows this better than the star of Star Trek 2 - Chris Pine. During an interview the sci fi acton hero talked about everything from the differences between the Dark Knight Rises and Star Trek 2 to what trekkies can expect from the second installment of this lucrative franchise. Here's what he said; "We're not making Batman. That's not our deal. There's comedy, which I think J.J. does a great job of, but, like the first one, there's some serious issues being dealt with. And I'd say the threat is even greater in this one. The force [the Enterprise crew] are met with is much more frightening. It's relentlessly action-packed and in terms of character development it goes places you'd never expect. The arc is huge for all the characters. It's a really big story -- I can't hype it enough!" You totally can hype it enough - all you've got to do is try! Lolz! Seriously though, we cannot wait to see this sci fi film extravaganza! Especially since we totally pine for Pine!!!

Rita Ora Debut Album Rises To The Top Of The U.K. Album Chart!!! Posted: 03 Sep 2012 11:40 AM PDT Woah! There's a new chart topper in town! Rita Ora's debut album Ora is the number one best selling debut album in the U.K. The dazzling singer was playing in Philadelphia at the Made In America festival when the news that she was the top dog in the U.K. came through the wire - we're sure she's ecstatic as she should be! We are so excited to see the record breaking artist perform at our own celebration that is happening EXTREMELY soon. We cannot wait to see this up and coming talent do what she does best. Congratulations on being NUMBER ONE, girl! [Image via WENN.]

Jay-Z & Beyonce Are Made In America Posted: 03 Sep 2012 10:40 AM PDT So much talent in only one picture! Jay-Z & Beyoncé were spotted at the Made In America festival in Phi Town aka Illadelphia aka PHILLY!!! These two love birds were nestling up against each other when Jay-Z wasn't up on stage totally rocking out with his - well, you know what we mean. On Saturday night, the rapper was joined onstage by Pearl Jam for a rendition of the rapper's 99 problems. It was just the apex of one fantastic night. We'd seriously be surprised at this point if Jay's got one problem, let alone 99 - ha!

Dark Knight Rises Passes One BILLION Dollar Mark Posted: 03 Sep 2012 10:20 AM PDT Yowza!!! The Dark Knight Rises became just the eleventh movie in cinematic history to pass the one billion dollar milestone. The film grossed $431.4 million domestic and $577.7 million international numbers which actually beat its predecessor The Dark Knight. Quite impressive indeed. Congratulations to the cast and the crew! Pop open that bottle of bubbly because you totally deserve it!

Quote Of The Day Posted: 03 Sep 2012 07:43 AM PDT "He is a great actor, and an even better director. I think the last few movies that he's made have been terrific. One thing about being president or running for president, if you're easily offended, you should probably choose another profession." - President Barack Obama, on Clint Eastwood's 'skit' at the Republican National Convention, to USA Today [Images via Getty Images.]

Madonna And Elton John Kissed And Made Up BEFORE She Forgave Him On-Stage In Nice! Posted: 03 Sep 2012 07:22 AM PDT AH-MAZING! We had wondered what had spurred such a wonderful change of heart! Last week, we reported that after quite an extensive and increasingly nasty public feud, Madonna let bygones be bygones and dedicated a song to Elton John during her MDNA concert in Nice, France! However, while we we hoped that the Rocket Man would follow suit, we've come to find out that he already HAS...because the pair actually ran into each other before the performance and took the opportunity to put their differences aside! Sources reveal: "Elton goes to the Petite Maison for dinner fairly regularly as it's near his villa in Mont Boron. But Madonna was also there for a bite before her show, which was down the road and didn't start until around 10.30pm. Just as he was leaving, he went over to talk to Madonna and they were laughing and smiling. They even hugged each other." WOW! And seeing as we all know Madge's feelings DURING that show, we'd say the rest is history! We couldn't be more THRILLED! Now perhaps that dream of a duet between the two isn't that outlandish after all... We'll keep our fingers crossed! Ha! [Images via WENN.]
