Ellen Page can unfortunately now relate to Selena Gomez , but not because she’s seen Justin Bieber naked: The actress has sought help from the LAPD over a few death threats left for her by a “fan” on Twitter. Sources confirm to TMZ that police have obtained a search warrant for the social networking site in order to investigate various posts directed at the Inception star in June. One reads “”I’m going to murder Ellen Page . She’s dead,” awhile another is equally disturbing: “Ellen Page if you continue to date Alexander [Skarsgard] I will K-1-L-L you in public in the next year … Be it in a club, at a game, in a restaurant, or when you’re signing autographs.” The Tweets have been removed, but authorities continue to look into the issue. Making the threats even more eerie and worth taking seriously? Organizers of the LA Film Festival, where Page premiered To Rome with Love on June 14, received a phone call around the same time from someone who said he would show up at the event and “kill” the actress.
Things might get a bit awkward in a few weeks. With Kanye West and Jay-Z scheduled to go on tour, sources tell Great Britain’s The Sun that the latter’s better half is not a fan of the former’s new girlfriend, a certain giant-breasted reality star. “Beyonce’s not happy about Kanye’s relationship with Kim ,” an insider claims to the publication. “She had a conservative upbringing which was very different to Kim’s.” What, exactly, is it about Kim Kardashian that bugs Beyonce so much? Says the source: “Bey’s never been impressed by her record with men.” Well, yeah. “And the sex tape that leaked a few years ago.” Good point. “Her 72-day marriage doesn’t exactly inspire her with confidence that she wants the relationship with Kanye to last either.” Hard to argue with that. Still, the women will need to make nice. West and Jay-Z will be touring Europe in May and June, with sources telling the newspaper that Kardashian has already lined up product launches around the same time in the area. She’ll be there. So will Beyonce, it stands to reason. Let’s hope these two get it on because, let’s face it: if they do, we all know who will be the survivor. [Photo: WENN.com]
Apparently we owe a giant apology to Amber Rose. The model went off a couple months ago about an affair between Kanye West and Kim Kardashian , saying the rapper and the reality star got together when she was dating the former and the latter was in a relationship with Reggie Bush. Now, in the just-released track “Theraflu,” Kanye seems to corroborate this allegation, coming straight out and admitting: I fell in love with Kim around the same time she fell in love with him . Listen for yourself: Kanye West – “Theraflu” West also makes a reference to Kim’s ex-husband, Kris Humphries , who plays power forward for the New Jersey Nets, an NBA team partially owned by Kanye’s good pal, Jay-Z. Hence, the following “Theraflu” lyric: Well that’s cool, baby girl, do your thing, lucky I ain’t have Jay drop him from the team. So… yeah. Wow. Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. You’d think the music mogul could do better than the wooden reality star, but then you think of Ray J’s description of Kim and remember: Right! Sexual hypnosis . UPDATE: Sources tell TMZ Kim and Kanye are dating! Right now! For real! They saw The Hunger Games this week together in NYC!
In his new book, Death of a Cheating Man: What Every Woman Must Know About Men Who Stray , Ray J refers to a woman by the name of “KK,” who just so happens to share the initials of his ex, Kim Kardashian . “KK” dated Ray J around the same time Kardashian did. Well, according to Ray J “KK” pursued him while she was still married. Kim Kardashian was married to music producer Damon Thomas at the time. In the book he writes, “We’d known each other for a while before we dated and there was a mutual attraction, but she was married … She let me know she wanted to get with me. She left her husband for me as soon as we started having sex and things between us got intense really fast. After that, I felt obligated to be with her.” Ray J also writes of he and “KK” having a highly sexual relationship: “She was a straight freak who was down to do whatever, whenever and that seriously hypnotized me.” Though she isn’t mentioned by name, Kim Kardashian isn’t happy. A source tells Life & Style : “Kim’s putting on a brave face, but she’s furious about Ray J cashing in on her. There’s so much that has gone wrong for her this year — he’s just another person trying to humiliate her.” Ray J Finally Breaks His Silence Did Ray-J Text Kim Kardashian Before She Walked Down The Aisle?

David Arquette and Christina McLarty made their first red carpet appearance as a couple this weekend, posing together at the Art of Elysium Heaven Gala in Los Angeles and looking happy as can be. “We’re serious,” the actor told E! News of the relationship. “But we’re having fun.” McLarty lives in New York City and works as a reporter for Entertainment Tonight , which means the couple does the long distance thing with Arquette based on L.A. “We’re making it work,” Arquette said. “We try to do a no more than two weeks [apart] rule. McLarty and Arquette started dating in September, around the same time as the latter’s stint on Dancing with the Stars . He didn’t fare too poorly on that competition and referred to it as a life-changing experience .
‘It’s a Miami record,’ Young Money rapper tells MTV News at VMAs. By Rob Markman Lil Twist Photo: Michael Bezjian/ WireImage LOS ANGELES — Lil Wayne may have just dropped Tha Carter IV, but don’t expect his Young Money artists to just stand around and bask in Weezy’s multiplatinum glow. Drake’s Take Care will be the next album to drop on the label, and Tyga’s Careless World is coming soon, as well as Birdman’s Cash Money release Bigga Than Life. Dallas rapper Lil Twist is cooking up his debut too, and fans can expect a big-time collaboration. ” Don’t Get It Twisted is definitely coming before the year is over,” the 18-year-old rapper said on the 2011 VMA black carpet. “I’m getting ready to put out my next record, which features Justin [Bieber], the one that everybody’s been waitin’ on. ‘Wherever You Are’ featuring Justin Bieber coming soon.” Twist and Bieb’s friendship is no secret. Twizzy has been teasing a full collaborative mixtape between the two, but as of now, nothing has materialized. “Me and Justin, we actually met through a mutual friend, and after that, we got real cool, actually,” he told MTV News last November. “[We] started working in the studio, sending stuff through the MacBook and everything. And then he was like, ‘Yo, bro, we should do a mixtape. Let’s go.’ We just started then.” While there is no telling when the mixtape will come, Twist is confident that their single will surface shortly. “It’s gonna be great. It’s a cool summer record,” Twist told MTV News of his and Justin’s upcoming collaboration. “It’s a party song. Straight for the sun. It’s a Miami record.” In 2010, Twist dropped the album’s first single, “Little Secret,” featuring Bow Wow and came back this year with the Lil Wayne-assisted “Love Affair.” The R&B-laced song found Twist singing about being caught in the middle of a love triangle, while Wayne crudely rapped around the same subject. For his current single, “New Money,” the YMCMB young’un hooked up with R&B singer Mishon. A promotional insert included with Tha Carter IV CD has Don’t Get It Twisted slated for a November 8 release; whether that date sticks remains to be seen.

Mulligan split with her longtime boyfriend and “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps” costar Shia LaBeouf in October, while Mumford broke up with singer Laura Marling around the same time. When MTV News caught up with the Oscar-nominated Brit at San Diego Comic-Con , she was keen to talk about the other love story in her life: Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation of “The Great Gatsby.” It turns out, despite her fianc

Star credits ‘American Idol’ gig, new music and motherhood with landing her a spot on annual list. By James Dinh Jennifer Lopez Photo: WireImage Thanks to the upcoming season of “American Idol,” an impending new album and recently announced endorsement deals, Jennifer Lopez ‘s career is seeing a resurgence. So it’s no surprise that the pop star, who spent recent years lying low to raise her twins alongside husband Marc Anthony, nabbed a spot on Barbara Walters’ “10 Most Fascinating People of 2010” list. Speaking with WWD , Lopez credited her inclusion on the celeb hot list to a combination of personal and professional endeavors including “the ‘American Idol’ [deal to appear as a judge] and also being a mom and entering back in the scene with the album.” The singer also admitted that she felt the pressure from the news correspondent during the interview, which airs Thursday at 10 p.m. ET on ABC. WWD joked with the singer/actress about whether Walters asked her questions like “What kind of tree are you?” She replied, “She didn’t ask me that, but she did ask me some kind of an abstract question like that, where I was like, ‘You’re Barbara Walter-ing me right now!’ ” Lopez, who joins Steven Tyler on the “Idol” judging panel this season, has also been chosen as the new face for L’Or

Actress marvels at the ‘fervor’ around her ‘Water for Elephants’ co-star. By Eric Ditzian, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Reese Witherspoon Photo: MTV News Reese Witherspoon became a household name in the late ’90s with a string of scene-stealing turns in films like “Pleasantville” and “Election.” Around the same time, Leonardo DiCaprio was transforming from teen heartthrob to mature Hollywood A-lister, thanks to the nearly $2 billion dollar success of “Titanic.” Over a decade later, Witherspoon has been thinking back to that pop culture period. It’s the only way she can make sense of the overwhelming popularity of her “Water for Elephants” co-star Robert Pattinson . “The only thing I can compare it to is when Leo was in ‘Titanic,’ ” she told MTV News while promoting her upcoming movie “How Do You Know.” “It was that kind of fervor about a person. The women lining up outside the set — it was unbelievable — till 5 o’clock in the morning waiting to just glimpse him.” The Tennessee set of “Water for Elephants” was basically no different than what happens when the “Twilight” vamp goes anywhere. As director Francis Lawrence told us in the fall, “[E]very day there would be, like, 50 people [staked out] … . [T]here would be people camped out in the hallways of our hotel. All day, all night long, it didn’t matter. People were there to try to catch a glimpse.” Witherspoon, of course, got an up-close-and-personal glimpse of RPattz, and she was happy to report back to us: “He is extraordinarily attractive. I’m not gonna lie,” she said. “Robert is such a great guy from a great family,” she explained. “That’s the thing that’s so funny. He’s not really this bad boy; he’s just a great guy and really worked hard on ‘Water for Elephants.’ He really worked long hours, long days. He looks totally different in the movie.” Check out everything we’ve got on “How Do You Know.” For young Hollywood news, fashion and “Twilight” updates around the clock, visit HollywoodCrush.MTV.com .
