Reese Witherspoon Speaks Out On Her Arrest, Admits ‘We Know Better’

“I was so disrespectful ... I said all kinds of crazy things.”

Early last week we learned the somewhat shocking news that Reese Witherspoon and her husband Jim Toth were both arrested in Atlanta, GA after their car was pulled over by police on suspicion of drunk driving. Jim was taken into custody for driving while being impaired and Reese was arrested for her disruptive and disorderly conduct. Since that arrest, Reese has kept on working but today she appeared on Good Morning America to admit her guilt and wrongdoing. During a promo interview for her new movie Mud, Reese opened up about that fateful night and fully admitted that she and her husband were completely in the wrong.

Elton John Apologizes, Ends His Years Long Feud With Madonna

Peace at Last

After a couple decades of public and private feuding, Elton John has finally matured to the point where he realized that it was long past time to end his bitter rivalry with Madonna. Over the years, and most recently this past August, Elton has viciously and savagely attacked Madonna in public in interviews and in private among famous friends. Madonna never seemed to be bothered by Elton‘s attacks but, nonetheless, I’m sure it wasn’t fun for her to be treated so poorly by another person (tho, in all honesty, I bet she did get some sort of validation from the ridiculously over the top jealousy that Elton had for her). Elton John, in a new interview with Extra!, revealed that he finally manned up and apologized to Madonna for his behavior and claims that the long-running feud is now over. Click below to watch Elton announce this news himself on Extra! this week. More »

Justin Bieber Starts London Concert 2 Hours Late, Crushes The Dreams Of Many Fans

"I apologize ... However it was great show and Im proud of that"

It would appear that popstar Justin Bieber‘s bratty behavior has started to move from his private life to his professional life. Now, instead of merely annoying folks with his personal behavior (which includes gas masks, saggy pants and lots of whining — Hell, even Olivia Wilde is fed up with his bullshizz), he is starting to annoy fans (and, more importantly, their parents who pay for everything) with his very unprofessional on stage behavior. Bieber was scheduled to take the stage at the O2 Arena in London, England last night at 8:30 but didn’t show up to perform until just after 10:30 PM. A 2 hour delay may not sound like the end of the world to some of us but for an artist whose fanbase is made up of school age children on a school night, it’s a problem. If you consider that many of JB‘s London fans had to get home by subway, you can imagine how heartbroken many of those fans were when their parents forced them to leave the concert early — before Justin even took to the stage — so that they could catch the last subway trains home before they ended service for the night. Yikes! What a d-bag move. The Biebs did apologize afterward, kinda … click below to read his shitty non-apology. More »

‘Lucky’ Magazine Apologizes For Their Britney Spears Issue

"We're sorry"

Last week we got to see our dear Britney Spears on the cover and in the pages of the December issue of Lucky magazine and, as you may recall, homegirl was not lookin’ her best due to ridiculous Photoshopping (on the part of the Lucky mag photo editors) and poor wig usage (sadly, on the part of Britney‘s stylist). As you may recall many fans (me included) were NOT happy with the results. Today we learn that Lucky magazine has issued an apology of sorts for the photos. Because of the huge backlash from fans, the folks at Lucky felt compelled to say “sorry”. More »

Listen: Madonna Explains/Apologizes To Australian Fans For NOT Bringing Her Tour Down Under

"To all my fans in Australia ..."
Oh My Oz, I Am Heartily Sorry

After promising to bring her MDNA World Tour to Australia this time around, Madonna had to break the hearts of all of her Aussie fans by announcing that she would NOT be bringing her tour to Oz after all. At the time of the announcement, no real explanation was given as to why Maddy would not be touring in Oz for a second world tour in a row … which only added to her Aussie fans’ disappointment. Today we get to hear straight from Madonna herself why she will not be touring down under in a new video/audio message that explains in plain detail her reasoning for not touring in Oz this time around. Undoubtedly, there will be some people who are unsatisfied with Madonna‘s explanation but if you listen to the clip above, I think most reasonable people will understand. This clip is really worth listening to as it shows us a side of Madonna that we don’t usually get to see. I find this clip shows us a very human, very down to Earth Madonna. Take a listen and see what you think.

Francis Bean Cobain Thinks Twitter Should Ban Courtney Love From Tweeting

"I'm generally silent on the affairs of my biological mother"

Courtney Love and Twitter are like a match made in embarrassment Hell. Normally, C. Love‘s erratic and messy tweets only serve to highlight her trainwreckiness and further show the world just how, er, unstable she can be. This week, Courtney‘s tweets managed to rain a shizzstorm of embarrassment on her only begotten and estranged daughter Frances Bean Cobain. Courtney publicly accused former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl of “hitting on” her daughter Frances … forcing Cobain to issue a statement not only denying the allegation publicly but also pleading with Twitter to ban her mother from tweeting ever again. In response, Courtney issued a public apology to her daughter … but the damage has been done, again. If C. Love was hoping to reconcile with her daughter, I think she pretty much shot that chance to Hell … yet again. More »

Kat Von D Pens A Letter Outlining Jesse James’s Douchebaggery

"I know I deserve a big fat 'I told you so' from everyone"

It would seem that tattoo artist (and notorious bad decision maker) Kat Von D finally wizened up and came to her senses about her relationship with notorious cheater (and, IMHO, scuzzbag) Jesse James. Apparently it took, according to Kat herself, 19 confirmed instances of Jessie‘s cheating on her to make her realize that maybe he really isn’t the man for her. Kat posted a lengthy letter on her official Facebook profile explaining her enlightenment where Jesse‘s concerned. I, personally, could care less about their relationship … but I am impressed that she is sharing so much personal insight about her disastrous relationship with James. Hopefully it will be a lesson to others who may risk a relationship with Jesse James. Read the full text of Kat Von D‘s letter below. More »
