• Is Jay-Z Trying to Buy Hot 97 After Funkmaster Flex Beef?

    Things are not well in the New York hip-hop family. Two of the biggest players in the community, Jay-Z and Funkmaster Flex, are at odds over actions reportedly taken by people at Jay-Z's site "Life + Times." There appears to be more at stake here, though.

Disick's biggest downfall seems to be his hosting gigs because once a club books him he always ends up completely trashed — like two weeks ago is Aspen, Colorado, when he trashed his hotel room.

    So much attention has been placed on Teresa Giudice in recent months, especially after she was sentenced to time in federal prison. Fans of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" kind of knew the star was a bit shady, but it was not until she pled guilty to fraud that it became apparent just how deceitful she really was. For weeks now we have talked about the fact that Teresa will spend the next 13 months behind bars in Danbury, Connecticut, while her admitted alcoholic husband Joe Giudice steps up and takes care of their four kids for the first time. What that means that a lot more responsibility is inevitably landing on the shoulders of 13-year-old Gia Giudice.

    Is Jennifer Aniston the most snubbed person to walk away without an Oscar nomination this year? Well, truth be told, most of us cannot be too sure because while she has garnered critical acclaim for her role as a chronic pain sufferer in "Cake," it has not actually hit theaters yet, so most of us have yet to actually see it. She has scooped up leading actress nominations at the SAGs and the Golden Globes, though, so that has to count for something, right?
