Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan have one thing in common - they both need to improve their letter writing skills. Lohan, 20, was recently mocked after a condolence letter she wrote to movie director Robert Altman's family revealed a shocking grasp of the English language. But now a collection of childish letters that Paris scrawled to an ex-boyfriend show both A-listers could do with some more English classes. The Herbie star was the first to be ridiculed after her bizarre tribute described the legendary director as the 'closest thing to my father and grandfather that I really do believe I've had in several years', before it was signed 'God Bless, peace and love always. Thank You, be adequite (sic).' Now Paris' handwriting has come under the spotlight with this never-before-seen correspondence to former lover, Backstreet Boys heartthrob Nick Carter. The Simple Life star poured out her heart in the love notes and in one even produced a kindergarten-level montage by cutting out magazine pictures of herself accompanied by some bizarre messages.
Nas' Baby Moms Follows Up Tell-All Book With Reality Show
Carmen Bryan, better known to hip-hop fans as Nas' 'baby mama,' recently revealed to Essence magazine that she has a reality show in the works.
Bryan, who last month released her memoir titled It's No Secret detailing her affairs with Jay-Z & NBA guard Allen Iverson while still attached to Nas, didn't give any details about the show but hinted it would involve her infamous triangle. She also claimed she's not afraid of any backlash.
'Telling all is a full-time job,' Bryan told Essence. 'I still love SC, and I still love Nas. Love is an energy that can never be destroyed.
'It wasn't my decision to make this a public affair,' she added. 'I'm not an MC; I can't go in the studio and respond to individuals. So when Jay-Z and Nas recorded songs about me, they opened this door.'
In related news, Nas released his Def Jam debut, Hip Hop Is Dead, yesterday (December 19). The album features appearances from Kanye West, Snoop Dogg, Jay-Z, Kelis and The Game. Production on the CD was supplied by Dr. Dre, Scott Storch, Just Blaze, and will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas, among others.
According to early reports, the album is predicted to sell 200,000 copies it's first week out.
'He's got a lot of attention right now, a lot of people are talking about him,' Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop charts manager Raphael George told SOHH. 'A lot of people are talking about what he said about 'hip-hop is dead,' people, especially from the south are taking offense to that.'

KYLIE'S SHOWDOWN WITH MARTINEZ.
Kylie Minogue has flown to France to confront her partner Olivier Martinez, according to reports.
The singer boarded a plane soon after her final Melbourne show of her Showgirl Tour, instead of attending the post-concert party. Rumours suggest she has travelled to talk with Martinez after he was pictured with model Sarai Givati in Paris.
A source said: “There was supposed to be a huge party...everyone was invited — from her business associates to her parents, to the nurses who cared for her. But Kylie left the concert straight away and went home to pack.”
However, the singer's representatives have denied the claims, insisting the flight was to minimise the effects of jet-lag for her Wembley gig on New Year's Eve.
First picture of Keith Richards as Jack Sparrow’s dad!
Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow, Martin Klebba as Marty and Keith Richards as Sparrow’s swashbuckling dad from the set of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (it’s now officially “World’s” and not “Worlds”). Directed by Gore Verbinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, the highly-anticipated third installment sails into theaters on May 25.
Penelope Cruz claims she knows why those lesbian rumors refuse to die. The “Vanilla Sky” actress, who has long been the subject of speculation about her sexuality, says she helped keep them going.
Cruz has been friends with Salma Hayek since she came to the U.S. from Spain about seven years ago. There friendship started a buzz, which grew a lot louder when she groped her friend’s behind at a press conference while the two were promoting their film “Banditas.”
“I grabbed Salma’s *** just to keep things moving, because everyone was a little slow,” Cruz said while promoting her new film “Volver” reports Australia’s Courier Mail. “And, of course, the energy changed when I did that.”
The speculation in Hayek’s native Mexico is rampant. “There are magazine covers in Mexico describing us as these lesbians because of that,” Hayek said. “A lot of people were saying we were lovers.”
And then there’s the bit about Cruz saying that her “Head in the Clouds” co-star Charlize Theron was her best-ever on-screen kiss — despite kissing then main-squeeze Matthew McConaughey in the flick “Sahara.”

Re: Qiana's Daily Gossip
Whitney Houston’s comeback song has leaked — and the reaction is mixed. “Family First” is the first song the diva has recorded since her well-publicized battle with drugs, and was recorded with her mother Cissy Houston and her aunt Dionne Warwick for Tyler Perry’s new flick “Daddy’s Little Girls.” The soundtrack doesn’t hit stores until January 18, but it’s already hit the Internet. “It’s heartwarming,” says one Houston fan. “But I miss her old pipes.” ... The beat up cowboy hat worn by Jake Gyllenhaal in “Brokeback Mountain” has been sold on eBay for $10,100. The cash goes to a children’s charity. ... Heidi Fleiss says she had to postpone the opening of her Stud Farm — an all-male-catering-to-women house of ill repute.

Re: Qiana's Daily Gossip
Damn it. I wish that my picture was in magazines so I could clip them out and use them as a love note to DH.
No fair.
Paris and Nick really belong together. If there is true love out there, they will find a way back together

Beyonce Shocked By Jay-z And Rihanna Rumours.
Beyonce Shocked By Jay-z And Rihanna Rumours.... Pop star Beyonce Knowles was shocked when people assumed her hit Ring The Alarm was about her boyfriend Jay-Z and singer Rihanna.
Reports falsely linked the hip-hop mogul to 18-year-old Sos singer Rihanna when he signed her to his Island Def Jam record label.
Beyonce explains, 'The rumours that Ring the Alarm is about Jay - those things don't bother me as much because they're so silly.
'It's kind of obvious, like certain things are just obviously not true. When things are not true, you just don't really think about it.
'It's amazing. When you're a new artist (like Rihanna), people are curious.

SCARY SPICE SIGNS UP TOP LAWYER TO TAKE ON EDDIE
It seems some Spice Girl-style girl power might come in handy for Melanie Brown as she prepares for a court battle with former boyfriend Eddie Murphy. The former Scary Spice won't be going it alone, though, as she's hired top showbiz lawyer Don Engel - who charges $500 an hour and has previously represented Cher and Meatloaf - to help fight her cause.
Mel is apparently set on securing child support for her unborn baby after the 45-year-old Beverly Hills Cop star told a Dutch TV crew they were no longer an item and demanded a paternity test to prove he is the child's father. After six months with the famous funnyman it was a humiliating moment for mum-of-one Melanie, who had been expecting to spend Christmas together.
Insiders say Yorkshire-born Mel could be eligible for as much as $15 million from the actor who is reportedly now dating film producer Tracey Edmonds. 'Mel is refusing to lie down and let Eddie walk all over her - and this is reflected in her choice if lawyer,' a source close to the singer told a British newspaper. 'She wants to hit him where it hurts… in the pocket and they don't come much better than Don.'

McSteamy Suits Up For GQ
If you’re still pretending you’re not one of the 22 million people a week watching the frothy prime-time soap Grey’s Anatomy, we’ll play along and tell you that Eric Dane stars on the ABC Show as Dr. Mark Sloan, the pal turned nemesis of Patrick Dempsey’s well-coifed Dr. Derek Shepherd. If you’re really in denial, we’ll remind you that your girlfriend refers to Dane simply as “McSteamy.” But seriously, who are you kidding? This is the season Grey’s mushroomed from chick fare to cross-cultural phenomenon–enjoy by womened, men, cats, and dogs alike–and the 34-year-old Dane, previously a TV itinerant (with appearances on Charmed, Gideon’s Crossing, The Wonder Years, and, um… Silk Stalkings), is humbled by the sudden public attention. “When someone comes up and says hi, my first reaction is, ‘Did we go to high school together”? Dane says. “Then I realize that they’ve seen me on the show. It’s not something I’m entirely used to yet.” Married in real life to the actress Rebecca Gayheart, Dane is used to at least one aspect of hit-TV-show life: not spilling the beans on the plot. He’s mum on upcoming Grey’s details, though he teases that McSteamy might be close to burying the macho hatchet with Dr. Shepherd, whom he betrayed years ago by seducing Shepherd’s wife. Dane also displays perfect bedside manner when discussing the recent tabloid hullaballo over cast-member fisticuffs: “In my estimation, it was wildly overblown. Everyone is very close on that set.” Exactly what we’d expect a good, well-dressed doctor to say.”
Miss USA Tara Conner entered rehab in Pennsylvania on Thursday, Donald Trump, who co-owns the Miss Universe organization, confirms to PEOPLE.
Conner is expected to stay at the facility for three weeks, according to a source.
On Tuesday Trump allowed Conner to retain her title despite allegations of drug and alcohol abuse, indiscretions with men and her apparent lack of reliability when it came to showing up at Miss USA-related events.
'I've always been a believer in second chances,' Trump said at a press conference before announcing that Conner would go to rehab for alcohol abuse. 'Tara is good person. Tara has tried hard. Tara is going to be given a second chance.'
Conner's troubles also resulted in a nasty feud between Trump and Rosie O'Donnell, who criticized the real-estate mogul's decision to give Conner a second chance.
Conner, who turned 21 on Monday, admitted to drinking while underage, and tearfully apologized for her behavior. Still, she said Thursday, 'I wouldn't say that I'm an alcoholic. I think that would be pushing the envelope.'
Trump, who plans to have Conner take regular drug tests, said she could be a role model for other 'troubled people'.
'I don't think she's denying she's an alcoholic,' he told New York's Daily News. 'She can be a great example for troubled people – and she's troubled.'

Gwen Stefani 'Prays' for Another Baby
Gwen Stefani's got love (husband Gavin Rossdale), an angel (son Kingston, 6 months) and music (a new album, The Sweet Escape) – now all she needs is another baby.
'I pray that I can have another baby,' Stefani, 37, tells USA Today. 'I mean, it's such a miracle to have one. And there's so much I still want to do, because who knows? Things could be a lot harder a few years from now. I mean, I'm not at the beginning of my career. I'm on a ticking clock. And I don't want to miss anything.'
Kingston James McGregor Rossdale, who was born on May 26 in Los Angeles, is already a show-business professional, says his mom.
'There's this huge team of us always hanging out together, so he gets to see the same people every day,' Stefani says of her entourage of stylists, dancers and others. 'And he's this very cool, chilled-out little guy. He's just like another person, except that he's super-cute and super-entertaining.'
Stefani is planning to tour in the spring behind her new album with Kingston in tow, and although spending the first four and a half months of her pregnancy on the road for her solo debut, Love. Angel. Music. Baby, was 'gnarly,' these days she's got an abundance of energy.
'I'm still nursing,' she says, 'and I think it gives you superhuman powers.'
Another superhuman feat: Losing her pregnancy weight in a few short months. 'That was one of the hardest things for me,' she says, 'the pressure of, 'OK, I need to get into shape so that I can put this record out.' If I didn't have that pressure, I don't think I would have gotten the baby weight off so quickly.'

Another Miss USA Scandal!!!
Miss Nevada, Katie Reese, has caused another scandal in the Miss USA organization. Photographs of her exposing her nips and kissing other girls were leaked and posted on the internet. The photos show Katie getting drunk in a bar and taking off her pants. Why? Well, she is Miss Nevada.
Katie is set to compete for the Miss USA crown next year. Officials are apparently investigating this latest incident. In fairness, Katie took these photos in Tampa before she was crowned Miss Nevada. Damn, who knew being Miss USA could be so much fun?
