Sam Smith Flaunts INSANE Weight Loss on Instagram!

Sam Smith has been a household name in the US for a couple years now, and like most celebrities, he’s been the subject of near-constant rumors about his appearance and personal life. Smith has already experienced a few A-list rites of passage, such as hanging out with the Kardashians and gossip about his sexual orientation , and now it looks like he can cross eating disorder speculation off his list, as well. The 23-year-old added the above photo to Instagram yesterday, and the comments from “concerned” followers began rolling in almost instantly. “OMG @samsmithworld you are too skinny!! Stay healthy!!! pls!” wrote one fan. “HOW DIFFERENT DOES HE LOOK whaaat,” wrote another. For the most part, however, the feedback was positive, with one commenter reflecting the consensus by writing, “You look great. Don’t listen to anyone who says you need to be thicker or thinner. You’re perfect when you’re happy.” Smith has addressed his body image issues in the past, saying in an interview last year: “I saw a picture of me on New Year’s Eve topless on a beach in Sydney and it made me want to kill myself.  “I just thought I was huge. I’ve had issues with my weight since I was a kid…My dad became a fitness trainer when I was 12 and he tried to help me, but I’ve always had issues.” The singer says he has no special trick for losing weight and credits the book Eat. Nourish. Glow.  for helping him shed pounds, stating that the book “completely transformed” his relationship with food. View Slideshow: What 19 Celebs REALLY Weigh! (Number 11 Will Shock You!)

Keeping Up with the Kardashians Klash: Kim vs. Kris!

Consider this part two of our Keeping Up with the Kardashians preview. Earlier this week, we gave readers a look at a phone fight Kendall Jenner got into with her father after learning that Caitlyn Jenner was making a big deal out of attending one of her fashion shows. This made Kendall irate because she did not want her father upstaging her and/or making the event about anything other than the fashion on display and Kendall's job of modeling it. Okay? All caught up now? This leads into the following sneak peek, which features Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian getting into a tiff over the same fashion show. Kim doesn't understand why Kris thinks she can attend, considering what Kendall said to Caitly, to which Kris replies: “I'm going to be backstage with Kendall. It's something that we've worked one since day one.” So, what's the issue? Kris blames Kim for “opening [her] big mouth” and alerting Caitlyn to the event, which is what caused this family dust-up in the first place. SIGH. We're not saying the terrorists hate us because of the Kardashians , but we are wondering why anyone spends any time watching this show. At least if you watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online you can avoid commercials, we suppose. Anyway, check out the following sneak peek now:

A Brooklyn Crips set is recruiting the 10-year-old, and the arson at a Deals Discount store on Clarkson Ave. in East Flatbush on Tuesday was some kind of initiation, police sources said. That’s pretty much unheard of, according to NYPD Assistant Commissioner Kevin O’Connor of the Juvenile Justice Division. Ten-year-old suspect in Brooklyn mugging now accused of setting store on fire: sources “It’s uncommon to hear a 10-year-old in a gang,” O’Connor said. “It’s not uncommon to hear that kids are being influenced by them.” Violent gangs and street crews were responsible for 60 of the 161 murders — about 37% — during the first half of the year. They were also tied to 283 — or about half —of the 569 shootings that occurred over the same time period, police said. Is there NO code of ethics among these sill azz gangs?? SMFH.

Brad Pitt: Injured Carrying Vivienne, Walking With Cane

Being injured is worth it if it the children are okay. That’s how Brad Pitt summed up his recent injury at the Palm Springs International Film Festival gala this weekend, explaining to the press corps that he hurt himself when he suffered a fall while carrying daughter Vivienne. The upshot: Viv is fine. He walks with a cane now: “When [Maddox] was younger, I took a fall and cracked my elbow because I wanted to make sure he didn’t have the fall,” said Angelina Jolie, by his side. “Every parent has injured themselves at some point,” the father of six added. “Every parent will stand in the line of fire for their kids so it’s a normal thing.” So is Brad milking the injury at home? “He’s not that kind of guy,” she said . “He does everything still.” “I’m proud of him every single day,” Jolie said of Pitt, who was presented the Desert Palm Achievement Award by his Moneyball co-star Jonah Hill. Get well soon, Brad. But nice cane man. [Photo: WENN.com]

Adele Hoping to Attend, Perform at Grammys

Ailing songstress Adele, nominated for six Grammys, is planning on attending the awards ceremony in Los Angeles next month and hopes to sing at the event. Adele was forced to cancel her remaining tour and promotional appearances after undergoing throat surgery last November and is on the shelf indefinitely. The “Rolling In The Deep” singer is nominated in six categories, including album of the year, record of the year, and song of the year for her second album, 21 . Adele underwent vocal cord microsurgery by Dr. Steven Zeitels to stop recurrent vocal cord hemorrhage (bleeding) from a benign polyp, according to reports. Her rehabilitation is well underway. “Adele will be at the Grammys in Los Angeles on February 12 at the Staples Center,” a source close to the singer says. “She’s thrilled to be nominated.” “It’s been a hard time for her because of the surgery. She has begun talking more, with her doctor’s permission. Adele’s best friend in recent weeks has been warm compresses around her neck to help the healing process of her vocal cords.” “Producers of the Grammys would love to have Adele perform and open the show, but she isn’t able to give them an answer yet. She won’t be able to give them an answer until the beginning of February, and they completely understand.” Adele has also lost 25 pounds in recent months, according to reports.

Simply put: we told you. Our exhaustive, in-depth analysis of the Steelers/Broncos first round playoff matchup revealed that Tim Tebow would lead Denver to an upset , despite the seemingly long odds against this man of God and his hilariously low completion percentage.

The Devil Inside Tops Weekend Box Office

The Devil Inside bested the box office with a $34.5 million debut this weekend. The performance was the third-biggest ever for a January opener, and enough to knock Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol out of the coveted No. 1 spot. Hollywood, which saw ticket sales hit a 15-year low last year, is off to a good start in 2012 as ticket sales surged 30 percent over the same weekend in ’11. The Devil Inside Trailer Though demoted to No. 2, Ghost Protocol held well, coming up with $20.5 million, and hitting the $400 million mark worldwide. Sherlock Holmes was third. Meryl Streep, meanwhile, was the hottest ticket by a different metric, with The Iron Lady averaging a weekend-best $34,420 at each theater it played in. Here’s a complete look at the weekend’s top movies by revenue: The Devil Inside, $34.5 million Mission: Impossible-Ghost Protocol, $20.5 million Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, $14.1 million The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, $11.4 million Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, $9.5 million War Horse, $8.6 million We Bought a Zoo, $8.5 million The Adventures of Tintin, $6.6 million Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, $5.8 million New Year’s Eve, $3.3 million

Friday Box Office: Transformers Continues Assault, Larry Crowne Flops

All hail Megatron! While Transformers: Dark of the Moon earned “just” $33.5 million on Friday night — 15 percent behind what Revenge of the Fallen grabbed on its first Friday in 2009 — the Michael Bay-directed explosion orgy is on track to bank $185 million through its first seven days. That might be disappointing, until you consider the foreign grosses, which are expected to top $200 million over the same timeframe. The outlook isn’t as rosy for Larry Crowne : the film crashed its moped into fourth place on the chart, and won’t top $20 million for the weekend. Your Friday box office is here.
