Court To Britney: You're Shit Out Of Luck!


Spears' visitation remains unchanged!
The former singer's lawyers requested an emergency hearing on Wednesday. They wanted to try and get custody reinstated.
Brit Brit showed up to court but LEFT before going inside the court room!
The Commissioner kept his ruling the same as last week - Spears has had all visitation privileges revoked "indefinitely."
The next scheduled court hearing is February 19th. Unfitney better not request another emergency hearing before then and waste MORE of our Los Angeles taxpayer money!!!

There Once Was A Time

There once was a time when Britney Spears was known more for her music than her out-of-control behavior.
Let's pretend it's all about the music again.
A new unreleased Britney track has hit the Internets!
Click here to listen to Spears do a cover of the Ace of Base classic All That She Wants.
This is most likely a track that didn't make one of her first albums, judging by the sound.
It's nothing exceptional, but it's cute. It doesn't suck. And it's a reminder of those golden days when Britney was the Princess of Pop.

——
Cameras Follow Hollywood’s Hottest Couple as They Check Out
of the B&B and Move Back to Los Angeles
—–
NEW YORK, January 22, 2008 – Representing the first major programming greenlight since the NBCUniversal acquisition in November 2007, Oxygen is renewing its hit series Tori & Dean…Still Inn Love (working title) for a third season, set to premiere this summer. This season, the couple realizes if at first you don’t succeed, move back to LA!
Actors, proud new parents and aspiring entrepreneurs, Tori Spelling (Beverly Hills 90210) and husband Dean McDermott are checking out of their bed & breakfast and moving back to Hollywood in the third season of Tori & Dean…Still Inn Love on Oxygen. After trading in the glam 90210 lifestyle last year for their country inn Chateau La Rue in Fallbrook, CA, the McDermotts are now returning to Los Angeles after succumbing to the hectic lifestyle of caring for a baby and pursuing their acting careers all while running a bed and breakfast.
“Over the last year, Tori and Dean have become one of America’s favorite families and one of Oxygen’s break out series.” said Lauren Zalaznick, President of Oxygen Media. “They’re a modern day Lucy and Ricky. They’ve got a great sense of humor about themselves, trying to juggle the demands of parenthood, marriage, their families and their work lives.”
Set for eight one hour episodes, this season of Tori & Dean follows the couple as they leave the B&B behind, buy a new house and search for pre-schools for baby Liam.
The couple created the show and executive produce along with Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato of World of Wonder Productions, the production team behind the Bravo series Million Dollar Listing and Show Biz Moms & Dads.
With over two decades in the entertainment industry, Tori Spelling is an accomplished actress with a career spanning both television and film. Spelling shot to stardom playing Donna Martin on the acclaimed drama series Beverly Hills 90210, a role for which she remains beloved by American audiences. Following her time on 90210, Spelling returned to movies, switching effortlessly between mainstream hits such as Scream 2 and Scary Movie 2 and acclaimed indie performances in movies such as Trick and The House of Yes. Spelling also served as lead actress and executive producer for the VH1 scripted comedy So NoTORIous, loosely based on her own life. Next, she will star in the independent feature Kiss the Bride. Spelling’s upcoming memoir, "sTORI Telling," will to be published by Simon Spotlight Entertainment (SSE) on March 11, 2008. Married to actor Dean McDermott, they welcomed their new son, Liam Aaron, in March 2007.
Dean McDermott is a veteran film and television actor who has had starring roles in such series as 1-800-Missing and Due South as well as the Kevin Costner directed motion picture Open Range. He also has made numerous television guest appearances on such popular programming as The Closer, NCIS and Without a Trace. McDermott also starred in the television movie Mind Over Murder where he met his wife Tori Spelling.
Executive producers Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato are the founders of World of Wonder Productions. Based in both Los Angeles and London, World of Wonder is best known for award-winning films and documentaries such as The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Party Monster, HBO’s Monica in Black and White, as well as the Bravo non-fiction series Show Biz Moms & Dads and the Sundance Channel’s Transgeneration. Most recently World of Wonder produced the second season of the hit scripted show The Minor Accomplishments of Jackie Woodman for IFC, One Punk Under God for Sundance and What Perez Sez for VH1.

First Blog of the New Year!Current mood: excited
Hey everyone! Hope you all had an amazing new year so far. I have, and I've never been happier. Last night we had the first screening of my movie The Hottie and the Nottie in Dallas, Texas, at the Regent Park Theater. It was so exciting to be watching it for the first time with a live audience and the response was incredible. It made me so very happy and proud to be a part of such an amazing project. It's a hilarious film with both a beautiful message and a fun love story…it's the perfect date movie!
My co-stars Joel David Moore, Christine Lakin, and Johann Urb are not only great actors and perfect for their characters, but are close friends as well. I had the best time on set and will never forget my time working with them. Joel, my love interest in the film, is probably one of the funniest human beings on the planet–he is such a natural comedian. I could hardly keep a straight face during scenes because he was always using improv and saying the craziest, most outlandish things. Christine, who plays "The Nottie," is one of the sweetest girls I know and is such a talented actress. Plus, I give her major props for having to go through three hours of hair and makeup a day to look the way she did for her character. Finally, Johann is not only one of the most beautiful men I've ever laid eyes on, but is also very down-to-earth and intelligent. He was a pleasure to work with on set and was a great singer, just to give you a little insight on my peeps
So back to last night at the premiere: after we screened the movie, we had an afterparty at The Ghost Bar, the new hotspot in Dallas at the W Hotel. It was a beautiful club and everyone had a great time. I was there with my friends from the up-and-coming band, "Forever the Sickest Kids"–check them out on their MySpace page at www.myspace.com/foreverthesickestkids . They are six musicians from Texas…I love their music and they are such sweet guys!
I hope you all like my new MySpace page–I plan to write more often now that I have the new setup…Well, I have to go now because I'm on my way to Philadelphia for another private screening of my movie. I can't wait to hear from you all, and check back soon for more updates!
Love you all!
Love,
Paris xoxo"

She's Not Doing A Fragrance, But…


Courtney Cox has tried her hand at acting, producing and now she can add "designer" her to her resume.
The Dirt star isn't coming out with her own fashion line, but she will be launching her own line of furniture, sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com.
Cox hopes to debut her collection later this year.
This makes sense. During the early '90s, when acting gigs were few and far between, Courteney bought a bunch of homes and flipped them. She loves design and is kinda like a female Brad Pitt in that sense.
But will they be selling it at Kmart? Unlikely!

When Celebrities Blog


New dad Joel Madden has given us another update on his infant daughter, Harlow.
The Good Charlotte rocker just posted the following on his official blog:
"Harlow.
January 23, 2008 at 3:14 pm
She’s already growing to fast! So I am at home writing this blog before i head to the DCMA store, and then the DEAD EXEC studio to work. I swear it’s so hard to leave during the day, but always so rewarding to come home to the little family. I’ve always been a guy who loves to love.Probably one of the things that define me outside of my work is LOVE. I had no idea what love even was until Harlow came along.
Me and her mother feel like the luckiest two people alive right now. This time in our life has been amazing. We both look at our little girl every single moment everyday and know there is nothing we wouldn’t do to protect her and her perfect little innocence. It seems like you turn on the tv, or get online and its all bad news.
We dont want her to know any of that yet. I actually never want her to know any of the pain and suffering we see out in the world everyday, or how harsh people can be as a result of it. Having this baby has really made me realize we all start out that way, then somewhere along the way something happens and people go one way or the other. But all started out sweet and innocent just like my little daughter. The world could really make you bitter if you let it, but thats where music, and art come in to save the day.
You’ve got to surround yourself with the things you love. The whole point to DCMA and this site is a bunch of us friends doing what we love, surrounding ourselves with positivity. I want my kid to grow up around that.
My heart goes out to Heath ledger’s family. Too young. too soon. too loved to be gone. It almost seems pointless to say this with the state of the media today, but i hope people will respect what his child and her mother are going thru right now and give them space. May God be with them.
So this one was especially long today on the writing side, i apologize it all just got me thinking."

Jessica Alba: I'm More Afraid of Breastfeeding Than Giving Birth


Jessica Alba has opened up for the first time since announcing she and fiance Cash Warren are expecting their first child.
"It’s quite a blessing and perfect timing," she tells Extra in an interview, airing Wednesday, of her pregnancy.
But she says the whole experience has left her feeling more emotional.
"Anything could make me incredibly angry or break down crying," she says. "That’s not something I’m used to.”
Her one fear about mommyhood: Breastfeeding.
She says she recently had a dream and "it had to do with breastfeeding which is the only thing I’m paranoid about. More than giving birth.”
How is she staying in shape during her pregnancy?
"I try to eat as healthy as possible [and] exercise," she says. "As long as I don’t gain too much, too fast, that’s the key."

Lindsay Lohan headed to the morgue


Lindsay Lohan will be working in a morgue as part of her punishment for misdemeanor drunken driving. Lindsay’s lawyer outlined the plans for her current program yesterday, according to the Associated Press:
Her two four-hour days at the morgue are part of a court-ordered program to show drivers the real-life consequences of drinking and driving. She must also spend two days working in a hospital emergency room.
Okay, the morgue I can understand. Those people are already dead, so there’s no real sense of urgency. The ER on the other hand, I dunno. I think Lindsay will be more of a distraction: “Quick, get this man 20 cc’s of, uh, breasts. No, wait, that’s not right. 20 cc’s of, uh, round luscious cleavage! Sonofa—Miss Lohan, could you please stop leaning over the patients with your human defibrillator pads? Hey, wait, this guy’s heart started beating…”

Tom Cruise saved firefighters video quotes



The media’s been buzzing this morning with reports of the Tom Cruise Scientology video that boasts how the actor came to the aid of New York City firefighters after 9/11. Since the intergalactic federation of Thetans has been suing every YouTube user in sight that hosts the supposedly stolen videos, here’s a rundown about what the church of Scientology recruitment video claims Tom did for firefighters, according to Page Six:
In the promotional tape, the star states, with a scary gleam in his eye: "A Scientologist is someone who can look at the world and really see what it is . . . and be effective and do something about it and someone who's not asking permission to do that. Why ask permission? We are the authorities!"
Next, the video cuts to news footage of the devastation at Ground Zero as cheap action music plays and a cheesy narrator boasts: "And nothing says that better than the Mr. Cruise response [sic] to the wake-up call in the aftermath of 9/11 . . . If he takes a stand, it's pedal to the metal till the finish line, as in helping New York firemen. He first saw the dust and heard the cough when descending to the ruins, where he bolstered morale among firemen. The devastation had spread an unprecedented combination of toxins through the air - and it was lethal."
Cruise's voice kicks back in: "The EPA came out and said the air was clean. Of course, as a Scientologist, you go, 'That's a lie, [an] out[right] lie . . .' You know, you just go, 'Liar. Fine.' "
The narrator then returns to brag how Cruise "personally saw to the establishment of a first New York-covered detox project. And, no, he did not ask permission."
The article goes on to state the project was widely trashed by medical professionals and Mayor Michael Bloomberg. So I guess Tom Cruise's detox center is apparently no more reputable than my “Boobie Inspection Center.” Which is surprising considering he had a state-of- the-art facility with exercise bikes and oxygen masks whereas I had my garage and a lab coat I bought at the thrift store. Though to be professional I wrote “Dr. Sexypants” on the chest pocket with magic marker.
NOTE: Gawker has a copy of the video here. If you haven't seen any of these yet, they are hilarious. And by hilarious I mean "Holy shit Tom Cruise is going to kill us all."

Garrison Keillor sues St. Paul neighbor


Humorist Garrison Keillor and his wife have filed a lawsuit intended to stop their next-door neighbor from building a two-story addition they say would block their access to light and air.
The lawsuit was filed Monday in Ramsey County District Court by Keillor, the host of "A Prairie Home Companion" and creator of fictional Lake Wobegon, and his wife, Jenny Lind Nilsson.
They want neighbor Lori Anderson to stop building the 1,900-square-foot addition to the home she has owned since 1999. She lives there with fiance Paul Olson.
Both homes are in St. Paul's Ramsey Hill historic district.
Olson said he and Anderson were vacationing in New Zealand Nov. 29 when they got an e-mail from Keillor accusing them of building a carriage house. He said they ended their vacation early and returned home, hoping to talk to Keillor and Nilsson to work things out.
"They refused to talk to us," Anderson said. "We just wish they would have talked to us before filing a suit."
Anderson said they stopped construction and asked their contractor to draw up two alternative sets of plans in an attempt to accommodate Keillor and Nilsson.
Keillor released the following statement through his spokesman, David O'Neill:
"My wife and I live in a historic St. Paul house in a historic neighborhood, and this gives us an obligation to defend the house and the neighborhood against violations of the beauty of Ramsey Hill.
"A two-story stucco addition eight feet from the western wall of our house is a violation of it," the statement said.

Ruling against Spears remains in effect

LOS ANGELES - A court commissioner has decided to keep in effect an order suspending Britney Spears' right to visit her two sons and keeping them in the custody of ex-husband Kevin Federline.

The ruling by Superior Court Commissioner Scott Gordon came Monday after a full day of closed-door testimony on a bizarre situation this month in which police had Spears taken to a hospital after a standoff in her home when she refused to return the children to Federline's bodyguard after a visit.
The commissioner's written order noted that Federline was among the day's witnesses.
Gordon scheduled another hearing for Feb. 19.
Spears went to the courthouse briefly during the afternoon but never went inside, and she left amid a swarm of paparazzi.
The hearing in family law court was held behind closed doors after reporters were ordered to leave.
Court spokesman Allan Parachini said those who testified were two Los Angeles police officers; Paula Strong, the court-appointed monitor who was present for the visit at Spears' home; Lisa Hacker, a parenting coach who has been working with Spears and Federline; and Lonnie Jones, the bodyguard who went to the home to get the children.
Parachini didn't reveal what the witnesses said during their testimony. Gordon's order noted that during an officer's testimony there were two exhibits, one described as a photocopy of a police report and the other as a "photocopy of Application for 72-hour Detention for Evaluation and Treatment." All exhibits were ordered sealed.
Federline's attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, told reporters that after hearing all the testimony the commissioner decided to leave his Jan. 4 emergency order in place.
"The word victory is not something Mr. Federline or his counsel would ascribe to this. There is no joy. This is a grave situation for all," Kaplan said.
Although Federline thought the ruling was correct, Kaplan said, "his goal, his hope for the future is at some point he will be able to parent the children with the participation of their mother."
Kaplan would not answer questions.
Neither Spears, 26, nor Federline, 29, were required to attend, but Federline arrived early, sporting a mohawk-style haircut and dressed in a suit.
Spears didn't arrive until early afternoon.
A sport utility vehicle took her into a civic center garage, but only her attorneys got out before the vehicle left. It later stopped outside the courthouse, where Spears got out of a passenger seat and took over the driver's seat. It wasn't clear in the crush of photographers whether she or a companion was at the wheel when it left.
Gordon scheduled Monday's hearing at the same time he issued a Jan. 4 order suspending Spears' monitored visits with son Jayden James, 1, and Sean Preston, 2, and giving full legal and physical custody to Federline, who previously had temporary custody.
Gordon issued that order the day after police were called to Spears' home when she refused to return the children to Federline after a monitored visit and officers had paramedics haul the pop star off to a hospital for undisclosed reasons. She was released after a day and a half at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
Police officers monitoring the paparazzi outside the courthouse warned them to stay on the sidewalk, and several were issued citations by bicycle-mounted officers for being in the street.

Celia Cruz comes to life in new exhibit


SAN ANTONIO - When Celia Cruz died in 2003, curator Marvette Perez knew it was time to begin work on an exhibit chronicling the life of the woman who helped revolutionize Latin music.
Perez, who had met the flamboyant Cruz, also knew that the exhibit could not consist simply of photos and videos of the Cuban entertainer. It had to include objects from Cruz's life that showed her true persona.
Cruz's dresses, shoes and wildly colored wigs were needed to fully illustrate who she was and how she developed as a performer.
"She was perhaps the most important Latino singer of her generation," Perez said. "When she died, we decided we should honor her because of how influential she was in world music."
Cruz, called the "Queen of Salsa," is celebrated in "Azucar! The Life and Music of Celia Cruz." The exhibit, which originated in Washington in 2005 and has traveled to Los Angeles and Miami, is in San Antonio through April at the Museo Alameda, an affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution.
The title of the exhibit, azucar, is Spanish for "sugar." But Henry Munoz III, founding chairman of the Alameda, said it means more than that. He said the word meant Cruz's on-stage battle cry representing her vivid approach to life.
"It was the spirit of her life, the energy she personified," Munoz said.
Besides her life as a singer, Cruz also loved flamboyant clothes. While music videos, photographs, documents and timelines of the Cuban-born Grammy winner's expansive career abound, the exhibit's biggest attention-drawers are the vibrant, heavily ruffled mermaid-like dresses, called "bata cubanas," and pairs of gravity-defying shoes Cruz wore on stage.
Perez, who worked with the National Museum of American History on the show, said it needed to have "things she used, things that were important to her. The shoes are very unusual because I think they represent her originality." Some of the shoes feature heels that look like miniature silver swans. Others look like high heels, but amazingly have no heel for support and appear to have forced Cruz to put her weight almost exclusively on the ball of her foot.
Carol Wyrick, the Alameda's acting director, noted Cruz's influence on fashion, including some of today's sky-high shoe styles.
"If you follow people as they go through the exhibit, they are fascinated with seeing her dresses, her wigs, her shoes," Wyrick said.
Born in 1925, Cruz rose to stardom in the 1950s with Afro-Cuban group La Sonora Matancera, but left Cuba after the 1959 revolution. She came to the United States in 1961. She never returned to her native country and spent much of her career in New York City, where she played a part in the groundbreaking salsa music movement in the 1970s. She recorded more than 80 albums and songs in her more than 60-year career. Cruz died in 2003 of brain cancer, and massive, colorful funerals befitting her style were held in both Miami and New York.
Perez said she hopes the exhibit might eventually travel to New York. It's not clear yet where it will go after San Antonio.
Her favorite piece of the exhibit is a setup of Cruz's dressing room using original items. A dressing table holds makeup and wigs and religious figurines. Behind the table, a monitor shows actual video of Cruz getting made up before a performance. This area, Perez said, is where Cruz transformed into a goddess who wowed audiences with her powerful voice.
"I understood that to be a place where the persona of an artist is put together and comes out on stage," she said. "That whole space of where a person becomes a great singer, a performer. ... She was a powerhouse on stage."

Britney Spears’ Visitation Rights Suspended Indefinitely


L.A. Superior Court Commissioner Scott Gordon ruled that Britney Spears’ visitation rights have been suspended indefinitely. The next hearing is set for February 19.
"The word victory is not something that Mr. Federline or his counsel would ascribe to the results of the court," Kevin Federline's attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, told reporters after the ruling.
"There is no joyous feeling," Kaplan added. "This is a grave situation for everybody. And while we believe Mr. Federline is pleased that the court did make an order that we feel is an appropriate, there is no joy in it for him."
At today’s hearing, a judge heard testimonies from Federline, two LAPD officers, court monitors Pamela Strong and Lisa Hacker and Spears' former bodyguard Lonnie Jones.
Spears arrived at the courthouse briefly, but fled to go to a church to pray.
"She was not ordered to be here today," Court PIO Alan Perichini told reporters. "She was welcome to come. It was my understanding the Sheriff's department did everything they could to facilitate her arrival."
Spears lost visitation rights after she was rushed to the hospital for a psychological evaluation earlier this month.

EXCLUSIVE: Gwyneth Paltrow Admitted to New York Hospital


Gwyneth Paltrow was admitted to New York's Mount Sinai Hospital yesterday afternoon, Usmagazine.com has learned.
"She was slumped over in a wheelchair pushed by [husband] Chris Martin," an eyewitness tells Us. "She looked not well."
At 6:30 p.m., a bag — labeled "Gwyneth Martin" — from NYC organic home supply store Organics Avenue was delivered.
A source tells Us she and Martin were spending the night.
The reason for the hospitalization is unknown.
Her rep tells Us, "We are not commenting as it's a personal matter."

K-Fed: I Understand Why People Are Obsessed With Britney and Me


Kevin Federline says his post-marital woes with Britney Spears are just like those of any recently divorced couple.
"Even though everything is so publicized and everybody is looking at it, it's normal for us,” he says in February’s Interview magazine.
“People put it up on this pedestal when it's really the same way that everybody else goes through their stuff, you know? It's not really any different.
“I mean, I could sit down and explain that to people, but they all already know how I feel,” he added. “I think the infatuation with the whole thing is that watching us go through things makes other people feel normal."
Interview’s Stephen Mooallem then asked him whether the fact that people have been watching their lives almost as entertainment has hurt him and Brit.
"That'd be a yes-and-no answer,” Federline replied. “You can't just have everything you want, you know?
I guess that's the way I have to look at it. I'm not completely willing to give in to everything that's been done. But that's the way that things have happened and I'm not that completely upset by it either.
“I've gained a whole lot of stuff I've wanted to do out of it, too. But I don't think it hurt the relationship, and I don't regret letting people in.
“It's flattering that people want to be in,” he continued. “So has it hurt? You know, to an extent it has.
"I mean, you want to have your private life. But I've found a way to do that and deal with everything at the same time. I've had to create my privacy."
Federline — who makes his debut on the CW soap One Tree Hill tonight — recently opened up to Usmagazine.com about life with Sean Preston and Jayden James. (Yesterday, a judge suspended Spears’ visitation rights indefinitely.)
A typical family night “usually watching SpongeBob SquarePants, Cars or whatever the kids are into," he told Us. "I’m much more G-rated than anything else these days!”

What Could Have Been


Illusionist Criss Angel is really opening up for the first time about his aborted performance with Britney Spears at the MTV Video Music Awards.

He explains:

"With Britney I presented concepts to create, within her performance, illusions that would happen in the open. You would see Britney and then she would split into two Britneys and then four Britneys with no boxes or covers. It would just be a visual effect using no screens. People in the past have used the art of magic in music performances but mostly in a cheesy way. Magic has not kept up with popular culture and technology.

"Other things I wanted to do with her was to literally transform her into birds and then for her to reappear in the audience. I also thought of having her levitate over the audience. It was going to be really visual moments that were all epic tableaux that were beautiful, artistic, elegant and, most important, unique — things MTV hasn't seen in music. I wanted to captivate people in the moment. That was the essence of what I wanted to do with the Britney performance, because I think the performance she did with the snake was a highlight of her career and I wanted to trump that and I thought we had it."

So, what happened?

"Britney is really strong with her own ideas. And what I had planned wasn't an easy thing to do and would have required a lot of rehearsals. Ultimately, I told her I needed 100% commitment or I wasn't going to be able to do this. I told her that, 'You have to feel comfortable.' So, we explored it and she decided it wasn't for her, and I completely understand."

Carrie Underwood on Tony Romo: “We Were Never Dating”


Carrie Underwood wants you to know she wasn’t crying over her split from Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback Tony Romo — in fact, she claims they were never together.
“He was not my boyfriend and we were never dating,” the country star, 24, told the January/February issue of Women’s Health. “The more I screamed ‘We’re not dating!’ the more headlines claimed that we were a couple or that I was crying because he was out with another girl.
“We’re really good friends, we hang out a lot, and we’re close…well, friends smooch occasionally,” she added.
The split is better for Romo’s career. He played the second worst game of his career when Underwood was in the stands. His worst game? When Simpson attended last month!
(Romo, who just returned from a romantic getaway with current fling Jessica Simpson, has since been linked to Sophia Bush, Britney Spears — who gave him a lap dance last October — and her ex assistant Alli Sims last year.)
Underwood, who has moved on with Gossip Girl’s Chace Crawford (they've been dating since July and she recently spent Christmas with his family) also revealed her dream job: being a news anchor.
“I love being on camera,” she says. “Diane Sawyer is my favorite. She never seems to lower herself to get the job done. She just carries herself well. I really admire her.”
In the meantime, the American Idol champ — who was voted one of Us’ best makeovers of 2007 — says she is content being at home “so I can eat what I want to when I’m out with friends.”
“The older I get, the harder it is to splurge without consequences,” she said. “I love food. Chocolate and cheese and anything that’s bad for me.
“Everyone has these expectations of what people should look like,” she added. “Some people think I’m fat, some people don’t. Who are they to judge? But it does bother me — if I see a picture, and I look chubby, it affects how I feel about myself.”

According to a newspaper in Ensenada, Mexico, El Vigia, the pop star, 26 and her married beau, 35, arrived at the Rosarito Beach Hotel at about 3 p.m. yesterday in a Black Escalade.

EXCLUSIVE: Police Found Bite and Bruises on Jayden James Upon Arrival at Britney Spears' Home


Usmagazine.com has learned that when police arrived at Britney Spears' Beverly Hills home on Jan. 3 to investigate her custody dispute with Kevin Federline they discovered that her youngest son, Jayden James, had at least one bite and several bruises on his body.
According to a source, the LAPD report of the incident, which ended with Spears being transported to a nearby hospital for psychiatric evaluation, says that when officers arrived that evening Spears responded by yelling at them to get out of her house. Police outside the home peered through a window and saw Spears cradling Jayden in a bathroom and observed that he was not in any immediate danger.
The source says that, though at first police threatened to break down the bathroom door, they soon learned that the door was in fact not locked and the officers were able to open the door and enter the bathroom.
After observing the bite mark and bruises on the child, police were then told by Federline's bodyguard, who had been at the home to pick up the kids, that the injuries were on Jayden before the child had even arrived at Spears' home earlier in the day, and that his older brother, Sean Preston, had actually bit him.
The source also tells Us that tests conducted on Spears at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center later that night found no evidence of drugs or alcohol in her system.

Lonely Girl


Tyra admits to being lonely in the recent Essence:
“I’d go to work [on ‘The Tyra Banks Show’], and women would be crying in my arms. But then I’d go home and put my key in my door and … nothing. No friends, no husband, no children. I feel so full when I’m at work but so empty when I come home.”
Aww, now we know her reasoning for helping out the black actresses. She needs some friends. Poor thang.

Cedars-Sinai Cited for Safety Lapses in Overdose of Dennis Quaid Babies


Cedars-Sinai Medical Center has been cited for numerous safety lapses relating to the overdose of anti-clotting drug heparin that was given to Dennis Quaid's newborn twins last November.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the California Department of Public Health has released a 20-page report detailing the failed procedures that led to a total of three patients (including Zoe Grace and Thomas Boone Quaid) being given a nearly fatal 1,000 times the prescribed dosage of heparin.
"This violation involved multiple failures by the facility to adhere to established policies and procedures for safe medication use," the state wrote in its report. "These violations caused, or were likely to cause, serious injury or death to the patients who received the wrong medication."
The prestigious L.A. hospital could also be issued fines by the state.
In a written statement, Dr. Michael L. Langberg, Cedars-Sinai's chief medical officer, said the state report confirmed the hospital's own investigation into the incidents.
"While this is a rare event, we are pleased that the [public health department] shares our view that it is an important opportunity for the entire institution to explore any and all ways we can further improve medication safety," Langberg said.
Among the hospital's errors cited in the report: medical staff failed to check product labels before they dispensed heparin, did not keep proper records of the drug's usage, and the hospital didn't take steps to implement its own policies on high-risk medications.
The Quaid twins were released from the hospital in early December, after which Quaid and his wife Kimberly filed a lawsuit against Chicago-based Baxter Healthcare Corp., the maker of heparin. As of Wednesday, the Quaids have not sued Cedars-Sinai for its errors.
