Gary Jumps Off London Eye
Wow, what a stunt.. Or not really? Garry Connery jumped from the top of the London Eye today, a height of about 440ft.
The movie stunt, 37 opened his parachute just moments after stepping off the giant wheel. He managed to land safely 16 seconds later! Hooray for him!
He sneaked on to the Eye and climbed up the maintenance stairs as it was being cleaned.
The dad of two, from Maidenhead, Berks, has already jumped from the Eiffel Tower.
Gary said: �I was petrified, but the thrill makes it worth it.�
I wouldn't jump if someone paid me! You'd have to either be an expert like him or a bit insane.. and I'm neither of those.. I think.

Britney Spears wants you to See Her!
Lots of here.. don't even have to open them if you don't want.
Kid Rock Accuses Pamela of Being a Partyholic
Pages Six of the NYP reports that the real reason behind the divorce was that Bob Richie, (Kid's real name) was tired of staying home with the kids while Pamela was out partying. The marriage ended just after 4 months.

Bored Borat...
Borat spotted at the Los Angeles Airport yesterday waiting for his bags.
I wonder what he's thinking of.. unhappy that his movie "may" have caused Kid's and Pam's divorce? Or contemplating what he is going to do with "Borat" money whose ticket sales just crossed $100 million mark in the US.
JoJo an Alcoholic?
Fifteen-year old singer, JoJo is defending her visit to Hollywood Hyde, claiming that the visit was totally innocent. She was spotted by some paparazzi back in October.
She claims:
"I didn't know it was 21 and over," she told PEOPLE at the American Music Awards in Los Angeles. "It's a freakin' restaurant and I was there with my mom and two other underage friends. I had milk and cookies! I wasn't drinking alcohol."
And even though she says her evening at Hyde "was great," don't expect to see her hitting the nightclub circuit any time soon. "It's not really my thing. I just dipped my toes (in the scene)."
Pam and Kid - split
Hokay, what they both tried to prove is the following:
That this is not about kids, or money, or houses, or anything else you might think of right now, but it's about image! FAME!
The race was on, Kid's managed to stamp his divorce documents at 8:35 AM, five minutes before the clerk's office even opened for business. Pam however was the second to do it, 53 minutes later. Therefore, this shows us how much they care about image - that they tried to tell the public that one left the other first.
Reasons for this sudden divorce? Some blame BORAT! Yeah, apparently Kid didn't agree with her participating in the film and it caused some tension between them.

Katie's Dad Approves of Her Wedding with Tom
Martin, after giving Katie a scolding finally puts forward his agreement about the wedding and thinks "Tom is the right guy". The reason why her dad was upset on Tom in the first place is that �Tom had promised her parents that they would do the right thing and get married before any baby came along.� - a close friend said. Comments like �You�re no good.� were followed.
However, now, after the wedding, Martin is happy with the couple.
"Tom expressed his love in many different ways - obviously he wanted the whole world to know how much he loved Katie," Holmes Sr. said. "I like that. I respect men who are not afraid to show their true feelings. I respect Tom for the commitment he had made to provide happiness and love to Katie." The proud father also said he was pleased to be entrusting his "little girl" to "the right guy."
K-FED: 'I AM AMERICA'S MOST HATED'
K-Fed made the above statement while playing at the House Of Blues. West Hollywood, California.
The 28-year old has been vituperated by the press lately, after the divorce and was portrayed as " gold-digging freeloader, capitalising on his wife's success and wealth."
After lashing out at his detractors - shouting from the stage, "F**k the haters, f**k the media, f**k the paparazzi," K-Fed, adapted lyrics to one of his songs; when a member of his entourage asked onstage, "Why does America hate you?" he replied, "Maybe because I took their Queen. I am America's most hated."
First of all, since when does America have a queen? The fact that she was a popular singer does not qualify as a royalty. Kevin.. you applied for a real job yet?

Britney in Action + Hannah Montana!
Some Paparazzi caught Britney's shaved coochie on camera yesterday evening. Let's face it, it's not something you'd see every Sunday Evening. See Hannah Montana in last paragraph.
Come on Britney, are panties not chic enough for you? Or just putting in practice what you learnt from Paris the other day? I'll let the rest of you express your views...
Hannah Montana photos, now that's my girl! She stars in the Disney TV show Hannah Montana as Miley Cyrus wooohoo. Nothing like Britney! The actual Miley Cyrus fansite is here under Hannah Montana
More Paris and Britney Play
Britney definitely looks a bit pissed off after being caught by the paparazzi at her "well planned" outing with Paris.
Another one of Britney's thought through plans of showing the media how well life is treating her, right after she broke up with Federline.
How long will this "publicity" friendship between Paris and Britney last, I wonder. Until then, more fame for Britney and Ms. Hilton it seems.
Here we have some pictures from splash.
Feel free to leave your comments!

Nelly's not a Playboy Girl
No chance of Nelly Furtado appearing in the pages of Playboy magazine - not even fully clothed. She was offered half a million dollars just to pose fully clothed in the magazine but she wasn't impressed.
She told MTV: "I was offered half a million dollars to pose fully clothed.
"To do it would be a vanity thing, an egotistical thing.
"It's not to say that I would never do it. It's intriguing, it's very tempting.
"It's got to be under the right terms. We will see what happens."
Don't loose your hopes, we might be seeing her amongst the magazine's pages sometime in the future.. just not the near future.

Britney Spears - the second Paris Hilton?
I just learnt that Britney showed up at Teddy's last night accompanied by Paris Hilton. So what's wrong in that you may question? Well she appears to have copied Paris Hilton's dressing style. That's right, the prostitute dressing style .
And remember when she was actually looking hot once again after the divorce? She bluffed it again. Next we'll expect her to be pregnant with who knows who.

After her fall from grace, last year, when she was caught taking drugs, it looks like she is going to move on and is apparently keen to be "known for more...than having a druggie boyfriend".
The word goes that she will be working for Rimmel, which has seen sales soar since she started appearing the ads.
Ok, ok now. Here's your second chance. Don't blow it again!

Threesome Britney
According to the latest gossip, K-Fed is to claim that Britney is actually Bi-sexual. One of his motivation for these claims has to do with the custody of their two children, Sean Preston, one, and two-month-old Jayden James.
The Sun also mentions that: �She has asked Kevin many times if they could have a threesome.� - coming from an insider who also states:
- �Britney has told him more than once she is sexually attracted to women and men equally."

Janet and Timberlake in conflict ?
That's what some fans say about Timberlake's "Give it to me" was leaked to the Internet, according to MSNBC.
Part of the song sounds like the following:
�Could you speak up and stop mumbling?/I don�t think you came in clear/When you�re sitting on the top/it�s hard to hear you from way up there/I saw you tryin� to act cute on TV/Just let me clear the air/We missed you on the charts last week/[Bleep] that�s right, you wasn�t there.�
Now, these may be refering to her appearance in the Oprah show, when she discussed about the boob-baring incident, and wasn't very kind to Justin. She said Timberlake tried contacting her but that she hasn't spoken to him since Nipplegate.
Truth or gossip? We may find out later as Justin wasn't available for comment.
