Oops, Kanye West doesn't appear to have forgiven and forgotten Taylor Swift just yet. At a surprise performance yesterday at his album launch party for My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, he commented that Taylor used the 2009 Video Music Awards incident (you know, the one where he got on stage while she was accepting an award and practically implied she didn't deserve it!) to become more famous.
"Taylor never came to my defense at any interview," Kanye said."And rode the waves and rode it and rode it."
Before that, he said that "everybody needs a villain. When you do things like what happened last year, it's disrespectful to everyone that's creative. It's a smack in the face to everyone who tries to do something real. If I wasn't drunk I would have been on stage longer! Am I the only one that's not crazy here? Are you f****** kidding me?"
Kim Kardashian has become the new face of a fitness footwear range.
The reality TV star and mother Kris Jenner are teaming up with Skechers to promote the brand's Shape-ups line after she discovered she could get in a good work-out without going to the gym.
She said: "When I was in New York, I wasn't working out. I was feeling so depressed. "But I would wear these just all around the hotel.
The fact that I would feel something without even having to set foot on a treadmill just made me feel better."
As well as helping her keep fit, Kim is also impressed with how they look, saying: "I like neon.
My shoe selection even before Skechers had always been really unique, and I pretty much wore simple, basic outfits, so you want your shoes to be your statement piece."
Thanks to the shoes, Kim, 30, says she and Kris are "a little more toned" in their "legs, butt and stomach".
As well as being the new face of Skechers Shape-ups, Kim also has her own range of swimwear, accessories and fragrances.
New reports claim the actress and her NBA star husband are separating after three years of marriage, but his representatives say HollywoodLife.com they are "completely false!
After three years of a long-distance marriage, Eva Longoria and Tony Parker are divorcing.
According to TMZ, Eva, 35, filed for divorce on November 15 in Texas. E Online Marc Malkin also alluded to the division, in writing, "This Saturday, it was supposed to be one of many stars to attend the recording of Anderson Cooper of CNN Heroes of 2010 television special but she canceled this weekend. "
However, officials say Eva HollywoodLife.com reports are "absolutely false. Totally wrong."
When asked why the stories surface in the first place, they said they "do not know why" and they "could not comment further."
Eva and Tony, 28, were married in July 2007, but spent much of their marriage apart, with Desperate Housewives and shooting him on the road with his NBA team, the San Antonio Spurs.
UPDATE: The divorce court that is supposed to be deposited to said they have tried all variations of names for both Tony Parker and Eva Longoria and nothing came as a game.

Walt Disney Pictures presents “ Tangled,” one of the most hilarious, hair-raising tales ever told.

Flynn’s curious captor, who’s looking for her ticket out of the tower where she’s been locked away for years, strikes a deal with the handsome thief and the unlikely duo sets off on an action-packed escapade, complete with a super-cop horse, an over-protective chameleon and a gruff gang of pub thugs. In theaters this holiday season in Disney Digital 3D™, “Tangled” is a story of adventure, heart, humor and hair—lots of hair.
Although the music industry saw a 13% decline in album sales in 2010, Justin Bieber proves to be force to be reckoned with.
The Recording Industry Association of America reported that the Canadian heartthrob sold 2 million copies of My World, which means he received a double-platinum plaque!
Glee Volume 1 soundtrack also fared well, earning a platinum plaque.
Ke$ha's debut album Animal, which has given us four hit singles (Tik Tok, Your Love Is My Drug, Blah Blah Blah and Take It Off) was certified gold for sales of more than 500,000 copies.
For singles, Black Eyed Peas I Gotta Feeling earned six platinum plaques for digital sales. Katy Perry's California Gurls, B.o.B's Airplanes (featuring Paramore) and Taio Cruz's Break Your Heart achieved gold status.
By K.M. LEW Beyonce's ad for her first perfume, Heat, has been banned from daytime TV in the U.K. It is "too sexually provocative" for youngsters to watch and it cannot be aired before 7.30pm on British TV, says the Daily Mail.
Fourteen complaints were made about the ad, which mostly shows her in seductive poses and in one scene she appears to be naked in a bathtub. The people behind the ad campaign, Coty UK, claimed the ad was not overtly graphic or explicitly sexual and at no point was Beyonce naked.
"The ad was intended to reflect the singer Beyonce's personal 'sexy chic' style," a spokesman said. "It was aimed at a vast selection of music programmes to target a young adult audience."
The Advertising Standards Authority did not think that the ad was obscene or offensive. Their chief concern was that it was aired around family programmes, since it "was sexually suggestive and might therefore be distasteful to some". Basically, the sexually provocative ad is unsuitable to be seen by young children.
NEW YORK: Fear and loathing, doom and gloom permeate nearly every minute of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1," the beginning of the end of the behemoth boy-wizard series.
This seventh film in the franchise, directed once again by David Yates (who previously helmed parts five and six, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" and "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince"), begins with nearly suffocating tension, as Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) finds himself face-to-face with his destiny: being the target of the evil Lord Voldemort's deadly wrath. Friends and allies will have to band together to protect him; some of them won't make it out alive.
Finally, the weight of Harry's past and the frightening unknown of his future, as detailed so thoroughly and vividly in J.K. Rowling's beloved books, are about to collide.
In this film publicity image released by Warner Bros. Pictures, from left, Bill Nighy, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe are shown in a scene from "Harry Porter The Deathly Hallows: Part 1."
Yates' film is gorgeously bleak, with sprawling, end-of-the-Earth shots of foreboding mountains and lonely beaches from Oscar-nominated cinematographer Eduardo Serra ("Girl With a Pearl Earring") that reflect the characters' moods. Serra has never shot a "Harry Potter" movie before and brings a totally different kind of artfulness to the aesthetics while remaining consistent with this familiar world. ("Part 1" is in 2-D because, thankfully, Warner Bros. chose not to rush the 3-D conversion process; "Part 2" will be in 3-D when it hits theaters in July.)
The films have grown darker in tone and theme, and given this heightened emotional challenge, the three young stars again rise to it. Having spent half their lives in these characters, their interactions with one another seem more comfortable and believable than ever. Radcliffe has been solid for a while now, and Emma Watson as Hermione Granger has grown into an engaging young woman, but Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley gives his most confident performance yet.
The supporting cast, as always, is mind-bogglingly star-studded, led by Ralph Fiennes as the fearsome Voldemort and Alan Rickman as the duplicitous Professor Snape, and including Helena Bonham Carter, Imelda Staunton, Julie Walters and newcomer Bill Nighy. It is a welcome sight to see the return of larger-than-life character actors like Robbie Coltrane as the lovable lug Hagrid and Brendan Gleeson as the irreverent "Mad-Eye" Moody; on the other end of the spectrum is Toby Jones, returning as the voice of the diminutive and heroic house elf Dobby.
Because "Part 1" sets up the final showdown in "Part 2," which Yates also directed, there is a lot of exposition in Steve Kloves' script, lots of characters and plot lines introduced and reintroduced from films past. While it is thrilling off the top, it repeatedly sags in the middle before ultimately picking up at the cliffhanger climax.
Voldemort is on the hunt for Harry, and has sent his minions to capture him alive so that he can kill him himself. Meanwhile, Harry, Hermione and Ron must track down and destroy the Horcruxes, scattered containers that hold pieces of Voldemort's soul, which are crucial to Harry's survival. But this pursuit is more dangerous than ever, since Voldemort's Death Eaters have taken over the Ministry of Magic, leaving Harry with less protection. And as we know from the previous film, the regal and wise Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore (Michael Gambon, in brief flashbacks) isn't around to help him, either.
In this film publicity image released by Warner Bros. Pictures, Robbie Coltrane, left, and Daniel Radcliffe are shown in a scene from "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1."
The visually striking sequence in which Harry and his pals assume fake identities to enter the ministry, which is hidden inside the sewers and looks like something out of the Third Reich, is dazzling and intimidating at once. Humor is hard to find here, as you would expect in a film with the words "Deathly Hallows" in the title, but there are a few laughs to be had at the absurdity of the situation in which Harry, Hermione and Ron find themselves. (Earlier in the film, Ron's twin brothers also provide some of their patented teasing banter.)
The imaginative energy the students enjoy at Hogwarts is gone here — part one of "Deathly Hallows" never once sets foot in the school's stately corridors — and instead, our trio is very much thrown into the real world. Temporarily stuck in London, they find themselves in a car chase and a shootout (albeit with wands), busy streets and dark alleyways. Danger lurks at every turn, and here, Yates mixes in some hand-held camerawork to provide a more intimate glimpse of their fear.
They are more grown-up than ever now that they are on the verge of leaving school, and since they are on the road searching for Horcruxes (and trying to keep Harry alive), they have plenty of time to explore their blossoming feelings toward each other. These are the sections that sap the film of its energy, but by the time "Part 1" ends, you'll be eager to see what tricks Harry has up his sleeve once he is forced to face the ultimate evil.
"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1," a Warner Bros. Pictures release, is rated PG-13 for some sequences of intense action violence and frightening images. Running time: 143 minutes. Three stars out of four.
