Amy Winehouse Begging For Forgiveness

Monday, August 17th, 2009

Amy Winehouse

And here we have Amy Winehouse in all of her disheveled glory seen leaving her house and trying to pretend that she is avoiding the paparazzi. This is one of those girls that never seems to stop surprising us. Well, most of what she does or is accused of these days is of little surprise, but it’s always interesting if nothing else to see what she is stopping to next. And we’ve been talking a little bit about the final demise of her marriage with convict Blake Fielder Civil, but it seems the months we spent ranting about how disgusting their love was, there may actually be something to it. Despite her philandering ways, she doesn’t seem to be too interested in just leaving this mess behind her, and she has begged her estranged husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, to take her back and call off their divorce. During a recent emotional phone call, laced with crack and a raspy smokers cough, Amy reportedly begged him to call the whole thing off and give their couplehood another go says “Close Source”:

“Blake was absolutely stunned when Amy called. He couldn’t believe it. It has been such a long time and so much has happened. She told him she still loved him and missed him and wanted him back. She said to him, ‘Come home to me. Be with me.’ Amy asked him, ‘Do you love me?’ Blake told her, ‘I love you. You know I do’. Blake told her that if she can stay clear of the drugs there is a chance for them.”

What, are we supposed to believe this means that Blake is no longer using the Class B’s? Maybe. But what you choose to believe is your own business. The couple – who married in 2007 and were recently granted a decree nisi – have both been trying to get themselves clean of drugs and it seems to be working. Blake is still in rehab following his release from jail earlier this year while Amy recently returned to London from an eight-month break in St. Lucia. Blake is keen to rekindle their relationship as he knows they can no longer be a negative influence on each other’s lives if they both stay clean. His words on the situation?

“We’ve been talking for the first time in months. I love her as much as ever. I know she still loves me, even though we’re getting divorced. Maybe this time we can do everything properly and not mess it up. She is looking beautiful and healthy now and it reminds me of the old Amy. She has been wearing my engagement ring and it meant an awful lot. I did something wrong and went to prison. I got clean. Amy flew off somewhere hot, got clean. It was meant to be that way. We were pushing things to the extreme with our drug-taking and it could never have carried on that way. I want to take her out for dinner and propose again. I hope that within five minutes we’ll be planning where we’re next going to get married.”

Blake and Amy staying together is not something I am opposed to believing. Blake and Amy staying clean and staying together welllll……as Oprah would say, that’s another show.

An Island for Paris

Friday, August 14th, 2009

Paris Hilton Photos

Paris Hilton was spotted here at a special screening of MTV’s ‘Paris, Not France’ at Westwood’s Majestic Crest Theater the other night, and though there was no date spotted for the evening, she still keeps us wondering as to who her next victim will be. And it seems that her former beau Doug Reinhardt must really have a thing for her, as he just can’t seem to give up on her. No, he’s not stalking her house and hiding in bushes, or going postal with 8,000 daily text messages, he’s just buying an island for her. Or at least he’s renting one, seems he doesn’t quite have the bankroll to buy a whole island yet.Paris Hilton’s on/off boyfriend Doug Reinhardt hired Wadigi Island in Fiji in a bid to impress the blonde socialite and to prove how much he loves her. The hotel heiress – who reunited with ‘The Hills’ star two weeks ago following a two-month split – has just returned from a romantic trip with Doug to the “private and beautiful” Wadigi Island, which he rented in an attempt to rekindle their relationship. Doug wrote on his Twitter page: “Fiji is truly one of the most amazing places in the world. Wadigi Island in Fiji is the perfect romantic getaway so private and beautiful.” To which our Paris added: “Love Wadigi Island, had the most incredible stay. It is true paradise, so beautiful and private. It’s the perfect place to vacation.” The 28-year-old socialite was thrilled with Doug’s surprise and loves being spoiled with romantic gestures. Our good friend Close Source has noted:

“He has been so generous and sweet, and has really impressed her with his romantic ways. She loves being treated like a princess… she can feel how deeply in love he is with her, and she’s having a blast.”

Well yes, most women actually do enjoy being treated like a princess. And I love how it is noted that Paris observes how infatuated he is with her…but we don’t hear her gushing about how much she loves him back. She Twittered: “What a fantastic day! Found so many beautiful shells on the beach and the ocean was so clear and warm! I am having the time of my life!” So we know she loves the ISLAND….but she doesn’t say the same about Doug. And you know Paris, when she wants to have someone’s baby…she let’s us KNOW.

Kate Hudson’s Ticking Clock

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

Kate Hudson Photos

Kate Hudson is seen here hanging out with her son Ryder as they stroll through the West Village in New York City. And Kate is one of those Hollywood moms that makes a point of spending time with her baby whenever she isn’t out on set. She’s spotted here playing and goofing around with little Ryder, all the while looking spectacular of course. And maybe the reason Kate has been spending more time with her little one has something to do with the fact that her clock is apparently ticking, and doing so quite loudly as well. She has been linked with many men, and only one with whom she has procreated with, and she is most recently linked to Madonna’s latest cast off, Alex Rodriguez. And it seems that their six month relationship is somewhat serious, as she has decided that she wants A-Rod to be her next baby daddy.The ‘Bride Wars’ actress – who has been dating the New York Yankees baseball star since May – is reportedly desperate to fall pregnant with the 34-year-old sportsman’s child and raise his “beautiful baby”. Says our good friend “Close Source”:

“Kate just turned 30 and she’s ready to have her second child. She wants Ryder to have a sibling, so she brought up the idea to Alex and told him that they would make a beautiful baby together, and that she would assume all financial responsibility.”

The Hollywood beauty has a five-year-old son Ryder, from her marriage to Black Crowes rocker Chris Robinson, while Alex has two daughters, Natasha, four, and 16-month-old Ella, with his ex-wife Cynthia. So it sounds like if they give this a whirl, Sunday dinners are going to be a little busy! However, it is of no surprise to me to hear that Alex – who only split from Cynthia last year – wants to wait before having any more children. Not sure if this one is a match made in heaven, but unless Kate is with anyone but Owen Wilson, I don’t think any match for her will be. And this is not the first time they have disagreed, though the time before this was not nearly as serious as a life altering decision. Last month, Kate got A Rod a little heated when she let her friend drive Alex’s SUV in Manhattan, New York, and then her friend went and dented his SUV while she was driving around. Who does that? “Need a car? Want my boyfriends?” Shaking my head…sometimes I think Kate is so pulled together, and other times I think she’s got a LOT of growing up to do.

Will Mischa Barton Ever Change?

Monday, August 10th, 2009

Mischa Barton Photos

Ah yes, this is one of those Hollywood It Girls gone bad, and it kind of makes you wonder what will become of her. She was doing so well and then…well….she gained a few pounds which in Tinseltown is enough to send you to the looney bin. And she wouldn’t be the first person that this happened to, but she was such a graceful style icon that it almost makes this story sadder. Mischa originally had a healthy approach to life, and loved her body just the way it was, and the way it kept going when her thighs made headline news a while back. The criticism from those photos spurred something awful for her, and so began her downhill spiral. And while this was not Britney Spears meltdown ugly, it was pretty darn close. Though she is looking a little worse for wear here, this is not a symbol of her downhill ways, as this is merely her in character on the set of her new TV show “The Beautiful Life”. But even the fact that she has gone back to work after her most recent meltdown has people worried for her, saying that she is even risking her own health. They say that too much is happening too soon following her release from Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center last month. As we know, the former ‘O.C.’ actress – who was placed under involuntary psychiatric hold at Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center last month. And she has subsequently infuriated her close pals by partying at the All Points West music festival in New York just days after her release from hospital, leaving many to question when her next meltdown will occur. Family friend Eric Ziegenbein has been reported saying:

“It’s scary to see her out right after she’s received treatment. When I found out she’d been partying again, I was shocked. I thought she would chill out for a bit. The fact she was out right away proves she’s not taking things seriously enough. It was like a big ‘f**k you.’ She’s too proud and independent sometimes.”

The 23-year-old starlet spent two weeks under a 5150 hold – which allows people to be forcibly held if they are deemed a danger to themselves or others, are gravely disabled or have a mental disorder – after friends became concerned she was suicidal. It has been alleged the actress’ drink and drug use was affecting her career and personal life, and back talk about her weight fuelled all of this. Primarily, her friends are frustrated Mischa isn’t listening to the advice of loved ones and is trying to deal with her problems alone. They say “She has a support group, but it’s obvious she’s ignoring them. I’m disappointed she’s not taking advice and is still doing her own thing.” This is not the first time the actress’s friends have voiced concerns about her wellbeing. Earlier this month, they openly expressed their fears she had returned to work on her new TV series ‘The Beautiful Life’ too soon after leaving hospital. This one is a tough one to call. On set she looks pretty healthy, and her wardrobe can only be blamed to character. And we haven’t seen her stumbling out of Bardot at 4 in the morning recently, so we don’t know exactly how hard she is partying. Could be that her friends are worried and overprotective of a near suicidal loved one….or could be that she is simply wanting to get back on her feet and start fresh by learning how to take care of herself. You know what my thoughts are…thats right…time will tell as it always does in Hollywood.

Amy Winehouse — Once a Trainwreck, Always a Trainwreck

Friday, August 7th, 2009

Amy Winehouse Photos
Here we see Amy Winehouse in all her denim glory upon leaving the London City of Westminster Magistrates Court after being found not guilty of assault. A judge acquitted Amy Winehouse of assaulting Sherene Flash who asked to take her picture following a charity ball on 25 September 2008. There is some rumor that she arrived to court in the morning in a pencil skirt and then left the courtroom after her acquittal looking like this, so as much as I want to slam her for being a trainwreck and appearing in court in jeans, I can’t. But I CAN slam her for making it LOOK like she appeared in court in jeans, because this only proves that she likes it when we think she’s a total loser. At any rate, now that she has this little legal hassle aside, Amy is worried, or not, about her next one, where her soon to be ex-hubby is insisting that she cheated on him with four different men while he was in prison. Soon-to-be ex-spouse Blake Fielder-Civil claims the ‘Back to Black’ singer – who admitted adultery in divorce proceedings earlier this month – had trysts with the guys while he was in jail on charges of perverting the course of justice and grievous bodily harm.

“She did it time after time. She kept cheating on me, and kept saying sorry. And I kept saying, ‘It’s alright, I forgive you.’ The nastier she was, the more in love I became. And she couldn’t believe her luck.”

This is one of those situations where ahead of time, you know how dysfunctional the relationship is, but when you hear it out loud, it kind of makes your ears bleed a little bit. Or a lot. Although Blake was devastated by Amy’s infidelities, he wasn’t surprised because she’d had such a powerful sex drive when they were together. And here Blake went on in detail, describing some information that registered so high on the “too much information” buzzer that I’ve had to send it out to get repaired, so I simply can’t repeat it here. Suffice it to say, my life was actually better before I knew their intimate details, so I am sparing you this pain. But if you are wondering the “who’s who” in Amy’s long string of men, meaning, who would do THAT, Blake has a handy list for his legal team. Amy, 25, was linked to her manager’s assistant, 23-year-old Alex Haines, in April last year, then Babyshambles guitarist Mick Whitnall, 41, and Kristian Marr – sometime boyfriend of fashion designer Sadie Frost. THEN, in January this year Amy was said to have had an affair with rugby player Josh Bowman, 21, during her extended break on the Caribbean island of St. Lucia. And Blake is distraught. Because the crack made her do it. He truly believes they took advantage of her while she was addicted to drugs and not in full control of her faculties.

“If I was the person she had these flings with, I may have thought it’s not the best idea to sleep with someone who is out of their mind, can barely speak and probably weighs about five stone (70lbs). But that’s their cross to bear and I think she’s just very lonely and has always used her sexuality to make friends.”

Did he forget that if he hadn’t gone to prison he would have done the same thing? I hate it when crack makes you sleep with people who can also be referred to as “not your husband”. Tragic.
