Miley Cyrus Denies Beyonce Beef, "Getting 2 the Bottom" of Fake Quotes on Perez Hilton

Miley Cyrus is hitting back after some inflammatory quotes attributed to her were published by Perez Hilton, denying she said anything about Beyonce. The mohawked, tattooed singer covers the March issue of LOVE , and in it, according to Perez, she claimed that she is ready to fill Bey’s shoes. “Beyonce has been a big inspiration to me but she’s been out for such a long time,” Miley allegedly said. “People are always looking for new blood.” “That’s what I bring to the game now, new blood. I got the total package you know, the curves, the rhythm, and the voice. I’m just the best.” “As Beyonce grows in motherhood and all the crap it does to your body, it will create a vacuum for fresh young faces to rise up and no one else can properly fill that void right now.” “I’m the only white female singer that could fill that slot right now and do it right, you know? I’m just the total package, you know?” “All things must start and end and I hope to have the same success as other icons in the game when my run is over. But for now, my run is just starting.” Wow. This would be a potentially awesome celebrity feud if Miley Cyrus really said that, but she’s adamant she did not – and she’s far from happy. Miley ranted on Twitter, putting the fake quote generator on notice: “That quote people MADE UP about Beyonce just made me lol! Imagine if I said I got ‘the looks and the curves I’m just better!’ Bahahahhaha. “How are people allowed to make up s–t & then put quotes around it saying I said that s–t! WTF!!?!” “Don’t worry. getting 2 the bottom of this s–t. making the liar retract the statement. U can cause ALOT of drama but NOT between me & B!” “Thank god I just woke up from this nightmare.” Perez Hilton has not responded to being put on blast, but the alleged quotes aren’t on the LOVE website and the issue itself won’t be out until February. Clearly the Beyonce quotes didn’t originate from Miley, although it’s not clear if Perez BS’d them himself or if he ganked them off another gossip site. It’s possible this was meant to be a goof and some sites took it seriously, or it could’ve been false story deliberately fed to some celebrity outlets. Either way, the singer is not impressed by the stunt. As for the Miley Cyrus bisexual rumors, she hasn’t called those out yet, so … just saying.

Jay Mohr Calls Alyssa Milano Fat, Actress Reacts on Twitter

Jay Mohr is under fire after making a recent crack at Alyssa Milano’s expense, and while she took the high road in response, she was far from happy. Mohr reportedly scrutinized the Mistresses star during a recent radio interview after the two attended the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Awards gala. “She was one of the presenters,” he said. “She’s very tiny, in height.” “It seems like she had a baby and said, ‘I don’t really give a s–t’ … I read it on her gut. Somebody sat in the director’s chair and was not wearing Spanx and I was like, ‘Jesus Christ.'” In response, Milano sent the comedian a direct tweet on Christmas. “@jaymohr37 So sorry you felt the need to publicly fat-shame me. Be well and God Bless. Please send my love to your beautiful wife,” she wrote. “You’re all lovely. Thank you for your kind words. #Appreciative” Mohr has been married Nikki Cox since 2006; they have a son Meredith, 2. Milano and husband of three years Dave Bugliari welcomed son Milo in 2011. After receiving plenty of backlash, Jay explained as such: “@perezhilton @alyssa_milano She’s stunning … I mistakenly thought the absurdity of what I was saying would have been taken as a joke. #fail” Definitely right on the money … with the #fail aspect. Even though quotes don’t convey the right tone in print sometimes, how would a blatant, specific put-down of Alyssa’s weight be construed as facetious? His explanation is that he was just kidding, and Alyssa is so unspeakably gorgeous that implying anything but this fact would be an obvious joke. You buying it? Discuss in the comments …

Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev: Reunited (at CW Upfronts)!

The most notable part of the The CW’s Upfront event in New York today? No, not the CW 2013-20414 schedule , though that is sort of interesting. Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev reuniting! At least on stage! The Vampire Diaries stars, who recently called it quits after three years of dating, were “consummate professionals” at the big presentation to advertisers. While Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder avoided a red carpet run-in, the stars joined network president Mark Pedowitz on stage. Hot (and awkward)! “They flanked him on each side, said hi to the audience and walked off stage, leaving Mark to deliver his address to advertisers,” a source says. “As they walked off stage, Nina was a stride or two ahead of Ian.” “Later, Nina and Ian were side by side and chatted with each other briefly before they all left the stage. They seemed friendly, not awkward at all.” And that’s about it. FYI, Dobrev, 24, rocked a Versace dress, Rupert Sanderson heels and Cuyana earrings, while Somerhalder, 34, wore Simon Spurr. Also FYI, The Vampire Diaries Season 4 finale is tonight at 8 p.m.

Dick Trickle Dead of Apparent Suicide; NASCAR Star Was 71

Dick Trickle, a former NASCAR star, has died. He was 71 years old. Police in North Carolina believe that Trickle took his own life, shooting himself at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Lincoln County at 12:02 this afternoon. Officials say they got a phone call before the shooting in which the caller said there would be a dead body at the cemetery … and it would be his. Operators scrambled to call back, but got no answer. When emergency responders arrived, they found Trickle near his pickup truck. The fan favorite is said to have died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Trickle did leave a suicide note at the death scene, though the contents of the note are released at this time and it’s unclear if and when they will be. Dick, who often smoked while racing, won the NASCAR “Rookie of the Year” award in the Winston Cup in 1989, when he was a spry 48 years old. He won twice and notched 78 top tens in his career. R.I.P.

Sasha Grey for February’s GQ Spain of the Day

I think Sasha Grey is funny….she’s an overrated pornstar who turned her back on porn cuz she got one acting job where she played a pornstar or hooker….in what is just a product of her thinking she is a bigger deal than she is and that there is more to her than choking on dick on camera….when really there isn’t….she always tried to intellectualize her porn career, say it was performance art, and do anything she could do justify that she was just a bottom feeder taking a bottom feeder route to get known…when ultimately the objective was always mainstream….so seeing her get any exposure whether in obscure editions of GQ or not…just makes laugh…cuz I know as she sits there ass in the air….fully clothed….her only fan base…is her porn fan base….and they are being totally let down by her…..she fucked on camera, that’s who she is….so this mainstream exposure is totally undeserved….keep the gutter slut with no self respect in the gutter is what I say…not to mention her face is handicapped lookin….but you wouldn’t know that cuz you’ve only seen in covered in cum…the way it was meant to be seen.

Kate Upton Does a Campaign of the Day

I don’t know why high or even mid range fashion has taken a liking to Kate Upton…I figure she’s more appropriate for WalMart or any discount bargain basement company….you know with her beer belly and all….She’d be perfect for Nascar, or beer companies or really anyone who isn’t trying to promote a middle of the road, hot chick from highschool turned old and married, lifestyle. I assume they just like the attention she gets for having big tits…you know cuz tits get hits…but as far as I’m concerned she’s a pig…and a great looking pig who I am not against being in photoshoots…but a pig…who should know her place in the world when it comes to photoshoots….I can’t blame her for taking jobs, I can only blame her for not saying no to the cake…every fucking day….

The Side-Eye: Money Makin’ Mitt Romney Rallies The “White Vote” With Birth Certificate Joke

Here we go again. Money Makin’ Mitt done started some isht! Mitt Romney joked about his birth certificate at a rally in his home state Friday, taking a shot at President Barack Obama over doubts about where the president was born. “No one’s ever asked to see my birth certificate, they know that this is the place that we were born and raised,” Mr. Romney said, as he spoke about his and his wife’s births in the Mitten State. After decrying the tone of the president’s campaign, Mr. Romney waded into the muck on the stump Friday. Meanwhile his campaign aide assured reporters that the Republican presidential hopeful believes the president was born in the U.S. Mr. Obama, who has released his long-form birth certificate, was born in Hawaii. The Obama campaign immediately seized on the remark. “Throughout this campaign, Governor Romney has embraced the most strident voices in his party instead of standing up to them,” said Ben LaBolt, a spokesman for the Obama campaign. “But Governor Romney’s decision to directly enlist himself in the birther movement should give pause to any rational voter across America.” Spontaneous remarks such as the one Mr. Romney made Friday are characteristic of the candidate. They have repeatedly thrown his campaign off message when Mr. Romney has made offhanded comments about the two Cadillacs his wife owns and his friendships with Nascar team owners, among others. But some Romney supporters at Friday’s event found the remark amusing. “That was good,” 77-year-old John Edmonds said, chuckling. “That fit perfectly.” Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, Mr. Romney’s running mate, again took some swipes at the president Friday over Mr. Obama’s 2008 comments that he had trouble winning certain working-class voters who “cling to guns or religion.” At the time, Mr. Obama was sharply ridiculed for the remark. “He said people from states like ours, we like to cling to our guns and our religion,” Mr. Ryan said, drawing on his own Midwestern roots. “I just have one thing to say: This Catholic deer hunter is guilty as charged and proud of it.” Wamp, wamp… These guys are so obvious with their stupid jokes and their not-so-subtle racist undertones. No wonder Mitt has ZERO percent of the black vote. Source WENN
