Taylor Swift. You think you know everything about her, and who could blame you? She’s been writing deeply personal lyrics since she was in her teens, and her love life has served as frequent tabloid fodder for almost as long. Taylor’s many relationships with celebrities have been publicly dissected to the point that you may remember more about her breakups than your own. But though she’s been woefully unlucky in love and has occasionally vented her frustrations in song form, Taylor is far more mature, intelligent, and well-rounded than most celebs her age. As such, there are a lot of Swifty facts and foibles that you may not be aware of: 11 Fun Facts About Taylor Swift! 1. Her First Job Was Knocking Bugs Out of Christmas Trees We’re guessing she prefers singing. For example, did you know that Taylor made SNL history as the first ever host to write her own monologue? Or that she won a national poetry award while still in grade school? Yes, there’s more than meets the eye when it comes to the Pennsylvania girl who grew up on a Christmas tree farm. Speaking of eyes: Taylor is blind as a bat! Yes, it’s hard to believe given her flawless fashion sense, but Taylor has terrible vision, and is entirely dependent on glasses or contacts to get through her day. Not surprisingly, that’s one biographical factoid that’s never made it into one of her songs. Jump into the gallery above to find out about Taylor’s first public performance, which family member was also a famous singer, and of course, all the deets on her unique crafting talents.
New York Giants football legend and morning talk-show personality Michael Strahan and his fiancee of five years, Nicole Murphy, called it quits Friday. The split was an amicable one as their busy careers ultimately doomed the seven-year love affair for the beloved Live With Kelly and Michael host. “They love each other very much, but with the distance and work schedule it has been hard to maintain the relationship,” Strahan’s rep confirms. Strahan, 42, and Murphy, 46, a model and star of VH1’s show Hollywood Exes (her ex being Eddie Murphy) started dating in 2007 and got engaged in 2009. The former duo had nine children between them, five of them Murphy’s by Eddie. Strahan has four kids from two ex-wives, Jean Muggli and Wanda Hutchins. The lovebirds’ careers turned them into a bi-coastal couple, as Strahan spends most of his time in New York while Murphy travels back and forth to L.A. Because of their hectic schedules, the two were thinking about eloping. “We might just have to run off and elope,” Murphy told talk-show host Wendy Williams in April. “We’ve been busy though, this has been crazy.” “The man’s got 20 jobs right now,” Murphy said. “He’s just busy.” Too busy, it turned out, as they announced the breakup Friday. Strahan became almost more high profile since he retired from the NFL after the 2007 season, when he helped lead the Giants to the Super Bowl title in his last game. That legacy will be enshrined permanently in the Pro Football Hall of Fame this evening, when New York’s #92 receives the highest honor in his sport. Michael played 15 seasons at defensive end, recording double-digit sacks in six, including 2001, when he set the single-season record of 22.5. He finished with 141.5 sacks, the fifth-most in NFL history. He made seven Pro Bowl teams and ended his career with his first and only championship. Celebrity Break-Ups of 2014 1.

Every once in a while a paparazzi pic happens that makes me laugh…and think “Hey, despite killing Princess Diana, and going onto steal pics of these famous people, that in reality they have grey area right to take pics of, only to sell for insane amounts of money, and hire evil legal teams to sue all the websites out there that uses them without permission, even though Facebook, Twitter, and sites based in other countries can do whatever the fuck they want and the public can find said images we are trying to sell for insane amount of money…sometimes they capture a great moment”… Like Mel B with hug tits being creeped on by some homeless guy that may even be one of her many illegit kids…like the one she has with Eddie Murphy…#classwars and #titties VIA SOURCE

Trey Songz has become the latest victim of a Twitter hoax today, but the R&B singer was not killed off a la Chumlee or Wayne Knight by the Internet. He was merely outed as gay. Rumors that Trey Songz came out began circulating on social media after a doctored tweet purportedly sent from his Twitter account surfaced online. News of his supposed coming out soon provoked myriad responses and re-tweets, with reactions ranging from amused to surprised to apathetic. The “Dive In” singer soon hit back at the tricksters responsible, denying that he’s gay and ripping those that made crude comments at his expense, “The things you people craft up with hatred in your hearts … the things people believe without question, or validity, all baffles me,” he said. “Photoshop and a retweet is all people need to believe, any and everything. I feel bad for the impressionable, no minds of their own,” he added later. “If I’m gay then Tupac bringing me a ounce for this session wit Biggie tomorrow,” Songz concluded. “No weapon. #LOVE.

If Nicole Murphy doesn’t look too familiar, that’s probably because like 95% of the world, you didn’t know a reality show called Hollywood Exes even existed until just now. But turns out Eddie Murphy’s ex Nicole is one of the “stars” of the VH1 show, and they filmed her hanging out in a bikini at the beach, because they know what viewers want. Then Nicole went and took it over the top with some impressive bikini poses. Now I’ve never seen this one before, but I like it. So move over Jessica Alba , because I think we may have just found a serious contender for my new favorite bikini ass pose. » view all 12 photos Photos: Fameflynet
