It just means, like, ‘F–k me, Drake!’” Bynes also spoke on her admiration for Blac Chyna : “I stole her look,” she said. “I was getting the micro dermals in my cheeks because she had them.

Well, that didn’t take long. Less than a week after the world learned that Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne had separated , several sources are reporting that Sharon has begun the process of filing for divorce from her husband of 33 years. According to TMZ, Sharon has been meeting with divorce lawyers and is on the verge of choosing the attorney who will help her fight what could be lengthy legal battle. Insiders report that Sharon and Ozzy’s split is already getting ugly , with the soon-to-be exes quarreling over petty details. Shortly after Sharon found out about Ozzy’s infidelity through his emails, she reportedly kicked him out of their Beverly Hills home. He returned two days later, and she responded by moving out herself. The couple has tens of millions of assets to split, and insiders say they expect the divorce process to be brutal on the whole family. But there are others who think the couple will soon magically patch things up – right around the time the publicity dies down. Yes, Page Six is reporting that an anonymous source close to the Osbournes believes the whole divorce drama is just a big publicity stunt orchestrated by Sharon: “Sharon is the queen of publicity stunts, there’s always deliberate drama going on, it maintains interest in them as a family,” says the insider. “She’s a very smart woman, it would be very hard for Ozzy to carry on an affair under her nose without her knowing about it. If it is a stunt, it has got him almost as much press as when he bit that bat’s head off.” Sounds a bit far-fetched, but we wouldn’t put it past her. Sharon has expressed her admiration for Kris Jenner in the past, and interest in the Osbournes is currently the highest it’s been in years. And it wouldn’t be tough to get Ozzy on board. He’s probably only vaguely aware of what the hell’s happening. View Slideshow: 26 Most Shocking Hollywood Divorces
Republican Vice Presidential candidate Paul Ryan has cited Rage Against the Machine as one of his favorite bands in a number of interviews. According to band member Tom Morello, the admiration is far from mutual. In a blistering Rolling Stone op-ed , Morello absolutely BLASTS Mitt Romney’s VP pick as “the embodiment of the machine our music rages against.” Morello compares Ryan’s appreciation of RATM to N.J. Gov. Chris Christie’s liking for Bruce Springsteen … or Charles Manson’s love for The Beatles. Painting him as “antithetical” to progress, Morello lambasts the Congressman’s “guiding vision of shifting revenue more radically to the one percent.” He goes on to observe that Paul Ryan has plenty of “rage,” but claims it’s “A rage against women, a rage against immigrants, a rage against workers, a rage against gays, a rage against the poor, a rage against the environment.” Ouch. The Grammy-winning guitarist has a history of outspoken activism, but he’s far from alone in wanting to separate his music from the GOP ticket. Wednesday, Silversun Pickups tore into Mitt Romney for playing their hit “Panic Switch” at an event … and joked that the title symbolizes his campaign. Sorry, Mitt and Paul.

Rashida Jones was backtrackin’ Tuesday and is playin’ nice to keep the peace. After her comment during an interview on SpinningPlatter.com last week, the actress hit Twitter to publicly apologize for her comment: Promoting her romantic comedy “Celeste and Jesse Forever,” Jones revealed her admiration for Frank Ocean, the R&B crooner who opened up this summer about his relationship with another man. The interview noted that there’s still a need for high-profile folks to come out. Jones offered up Travolta. “A movie star. Like John Travolta? Come out! Come on. How many masseurs have to come forward? Let’s do this,” she said, referring to numerous massage therapists who have accused the “Savages” actor of making sexual advances. Rashida tweeted: “I made a thoughtless comment about John Travolta. I sincerely apologize. Nobody’s personal life is my business.” We all know John gets the side-eye when it comes to the rumors but good for you Rashida on the apology. Source Images via Twitter/ WENN
This is so fawkin’ sad yo… What is wrong with people ??? A knife-wielding attacker chased a young Manhattan woman to her death, and cops late Friday arrested a suspect. The bizarre incident in the Bronx may have been sparked by a case of mistaken identity, the victim’s distraught boyfriend said. The 20-year-old victim, Sienna Edwards, was killed Thursday night trying to jump from one high-rise balcony to another, while trying to deliver birthday gifts to her cousin’s young daughter, a police source said. The medical examiner, after conferring with police, declared the death a homicide and said that Edwards fell 14 stories trying to escape a menacing attack. Kenya Edmonds, 23, mother of the child, was arrested and charged with second degree murder and manslaughter. “When she called me, she said they had a knife to her neck,” said her tearful boyfriend, Timothy Smith, 23. “I called her back 50 times, but I never heard back from her.” Smith’s cousin, Carl Purcell, 22, had asked Edwards to go to the apartment to deliver birthday treats to his 3-year-old daughter. Purcell is barred from the home — where his ex-girlfriend Edmonds lives — by an order of protection, Smith said. But in a tragic twist, those inside mistook Edwards for Purcell’s new girlfriend, Smith said. After the frightening phone call, Smith rushed from the Harlem apartment he had shared with Edwards since the day after they met last March, only to see her body on the ground outside the E. 179th St. building. The birthday girl was inside the apartment when Edwards, carrying a gift and a birthday cake, arrived at 9:30 p.m. The ex-girlfriend, Kenya, the ex’s sister and a female friend were also present. Shortly after her arrival, Edwards called 911 “looking for help,” Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Friday. “In the background there are voices that say, ‘You’re not going to leave here alive, you’re not going to leave here alive,’” Kelly said. The dispatcher heard that ominous message up to six times, but nothing from the caller, so they notified police. Officers tried to trace the cell phone call, but weren’t able to locate the apartment. About 10 p.m., someone called 911 and reported that Edwards had committed suicide by jumping over a 5-foot-high balcony. “The investigative premise is she may have been pushed from that balcony or fell trying to escape individuals who were trying to kill her,” a source said Friday afternoon. Several hours later, the medical examiner finished an autopsy and classified Edwards’ death as a homicide. “She was only 20 years old,” a shaken Smith said. “I would accept it if you jumped her, but not to do that. She tried to help people. People liked being around her. “She was an outgoing person.” A completely senseless death!!! She was trying to deliver presents to a child and these triflin’ broads couldn’t let her LIVE? Source More On Bossip! BFWTFs: Random Celebrity Buds You Wouldn’t Imagine Hanging Out Watch Your Mouths!

Ah boy, we knew THIS isht was comin’… Drake Hints At Posthumous Aaliyah Collaboration Drake has never been shy about his love for Aaliyah. The “Take Care” rapper has tattooed the late singer’s face on his back and sampled her song on his debut Thank Me Later. While he never got a chance to work with her while she was alive, he revealed that a posthumous collaboration may be in the works. “I have some great Aaliyah news coming soon. Some special things,” the 25-year-old told Tim Westwood. When asked if it had to do with a rumored posthumous project of her unreleased recordings, he remained coy. “Just some special things, you know. Great things for music, period.” Drizzy shared his admiration for the “Try Again” songstress, who passed away at the age of 22. “I think more than anything Aaliyah always made music that was never uncomfortable for me to listen to,” he explained. “You know it’s hard for me to ride around to a female singer because at the end of the day, you’re a man, but she always kept it so G with the writing and the melodies. It was something to ride to, especially when it was chopped and crewed. That’s when I used to love Aaliyah the most.” Sweet baby Jesus we pray that Aubrey doesn’t butcher some classic Aaliyah song just so he can say “I did a song with Aaliyah”.

LeBron James has made no secret of his admiration for Michael Jordan. But we didn’t realize just how badly The King wanted to be like His Airness.

‘I really don’t know what goes on behind closed doors with that,’ T-Minus tells MTV News. By Rob Markman, with reporting by Vanessa White Wolf Drake and Nicki Minaj Photo: WireImage Are they or aren’t they? Drake always talks about his love for Nicki Minaj , but whether it’s just an inside joke or something more serious, only they know. Their chemistry in the studio, however, is undeniable. “It’s kind of like a little joke I think that they play with each other,” Toronto producer T-Minus told MTV News. “I really don’t know what goes on behind closed doors with that. Definitely it could be something, but I personally don’t even know what goes on.” Aside from their current Take Care collaboration, “Make Me Proud,” T-Minus also produced last year’s Nicki/Drake duet “Moment 4 Life,” so he’s a bit of an authority on the pair’s in-studio magic. “Musically they go really well together. I think they’re a great contribution to Young Money. The chemistry is great,” he told MTV News. Drizzy has never been shy about his admiration for his curvy Young Money labelmate. On his 2010 track “Miss Me,” Drake famously rapped, “I love Nicki Minaj, I told her I’d admit it/ I hope one day we get married just to say we f—in’ did it.” A few months later, he playfully announced via Twitter that he and Minaj had gotten married . Maybe it was in those tweets that Drake found inspiration for his latest single. He wrote, “Baby I am never scared. PROUD is more the word I would use,” before making the faux wedding announcement. Whatever the case, a year and two months later we get “Make Me Proud.” “Whenever I make songs surrounding women, I always try to find refreshing stances to take, as opposed to just like, Oh, you’re sexy or Oh, I want you. The song, it really came up in passing conversation, just being like, I’m proud of you,” Drake told MTV News back in October when he first dropped the single. In order to bring his idea to life musically, the OVO general called on T-Minus. “Drake was looking for a record to put Nicki on for Take Care and we were debating about a lot of different records that we had,” the producer said. “He was like, ‘I want something that has a lot of energy, it sounds fast, but it’s got a slow tempo.’ ” After their powwow, “Make Me Proud” came together in no time. “It maybe took like 30 minutes. I sent it to him and he was like, OK, it’s a wrap, I got this,” T-Minus explained. “It took him like a day [to finish]. It was the craziest thing ever.” Related Artists Nicki Minaj Drake
Joan Jett, in turn, expressed her admiration for the former Disney star, who has it much harder with the press than she did. “I was thinking to myself … how difficult it must be to lead your life as a teenager with the paparazzi and the amount of press you#39;re surrounded by,” she told Cyrus. “I thought to myself, #39;Wow that was kind of a blessing that we didn#39;t have that stuff when I was growing up in The Runaways.#39; ” Miley Cyrus may have been “nervous” before meeting her idol, Joa
“Eddie is a comedic genius, one of the greatest and most influential live performers ever,” telecast producer Brett Ratner says. “I know he will bring excitement, spontaneity and tremendous heart to the show.” Eddie Murphy is set to step back into the spotlight in a big way: He#39;s agreed to take on hosting duties at the Oscars next February.
