Will Madonna Duet With Cee Lo Green At Super Bowl?

Sources say Madge will be joined by ‘The Voice’ judge during halftime performance. By Jocelyn Vena Madonna Photo: Getty Images Madonna might already have M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj on the stage with her for her big Super Bowl halftime performance; now comes word that she could also be joined by Cee Lo Green. According to sources, the singer has asked “The Voice” judge to perform with her at the February 5 show. “The Insider” reports that he’s been flying to New York to rehearse with the pop icon. The sources add that he will contribute his signature flair to some of her classic tunes. The pairing would make sense given that the new season of “The Voice” premieres right after the Super Bowl next month. Reps for both performers did not respond to MTV News’ request for comment by press time. MTV News caught up with the Queen of Pop at her “W.E.” premiere earlier this week in New York, and the singer only had one tease about the Super Bowl gig . “I am not saying ‘Yes,’ and I am not saying ‘No,’ ” she replied when asked whether Minaj and M.I.A. would take the stage with her. She added, “Pom poms. That’s all I can tell you.” When the singer takes the halftime stage next month, her performance will be “imagined” by Cirque du Soleil and Madonna’s longtime choreographer and creative director Jamie King. According to reports, the set list for the show will include new single “Give Me All Your Luvin” as well as the Madonna classics “Ray of Light,” “Vogue” and “Music.” “I have eight minutes to set up my stage, 12 minutes to put on the greatest show on earth, and I have seven minutes to take it down so that football field is clean for the second half of the game,” she told ABC News about the performance. “That’s the challenge. How do you do that? I actually wanted to have 100 drummers come from the ceiling, a drum line from the ceiling.” In addition to her Super Bowl performance, Madonna’s fans are awaiting the release of her next studio album, M.D.N.A., out later this year.

Heidi Klum-Seal Divorce May Not Be a Done Deal … Yet

Yesterday, reports surfaced that Heidi Klum and Seal split and are headed for divorce court, with an official filing to come as soon as Monday morning. No separation has occurred, however, and now, a new report suggests reports of the marriage’s demise may be premature and they’re not divorcing … yet. “They’ve been fighting a lot and it’s been rough lately, but they have no plans to announce a split right now,” a source tells People . “They’re not divorcing.” According to the insider, in recent months, increased distance and time apart has tested the famously affectionate pair, who have four young children together. On tour to promote his new album, Soul 2, Seal recently flew solo to NYC to appear on The Late Show with David Letterman , then to London for commitments. Back together at their Brentwood, Calif., home on Saturday, “they seem to be doing a lot better,” the source adds. “They’re both wearing their wedding bands.” The long distance strains are likely to continue, though. Seal is due to appear this week on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Tavis Smiley , all of which tape in and around Los Angeles. Klum, meanwhile is expected to travel to Germany soon to promote the seventh season of Germany’s Next Top Model , which premieres February 23. [Photo: WENN.com]

Chris Brown and Rihanna NOT Getting Back Together … But Totally Have Been Hooking Up, Source Says

Chris Brown and Rihanna have in fact been hooking up on the sly again recently, but they aren’t considering a full-fledged reconciliation, according to a new report. “They’ve probably hooked up no more than half a dozen times in the past year. It’s unlikely Rihanna and Chris would ever get back together though,” a source said. “Rihanna doesn’t care if she were to get public backlash if they were to reconcile,” the insider adds . “But, she is the one calling the shots now, which she likes.” Therein lies her reluctance: “Rihanna knows that if they were to get back together, she wouldn’t be able to maintain that strong role, and Chris would lose interest.” It has nothing to do with his infamous attack on her, in other words, but simply that “they are both very young, Rihanna likes being in control now, and would never be able to trust Chris because he has problems staying faithful.” Apparently. Sorry, Karrueche Tran . Rumors have swirled about Rihanna and Chris Brown in recent weeks, and both stars are expected to be on hand when the Grammys are handed out February 12. Brown is nominated for three Grammys: Best R & B Album, Best Rap Performance, and Best Rap Song. Rihanna will perform with Coldplay at the show. Plenty of people wish that Chris and Rihanna would give it another go, in spite of all that went on between them – Brown’s mom Joyce Hawkins included! “Joyce LOVES Rihanna, and she often calls her the daughter that she never had but always wanted,” the insider claims. “Joyce would love for Chris and Rihanna to continue to spend time together, and maybe down the line, get back together.” What do you think? Should Ri and Chris give it a go?

Russell Brand & Katy Perry in "Massive" Fight, Source Says

Katy Perry and Russell Brand are so in a fight. No, seriously, it’s bad. So much so that the spouses of a little more than one year parted on expletive terms and spent the holidays 7,000 miles apart. After planning to fly her family via private jet to husband Brand’s London hometown for the holidays, Perry changed course, opting to fly to Hawaii. The reason? “They had a massive fight,” an insider says. “She was like, ‘F–k you. I’m going to do my own thing.’ Russell replied, ‘Fine, f–k you too.'” Which explains why, come December 25, the record-setting singer was seen splashing in the Pacific Ocean off the island of Kauai sans wedding ring . Meanwhile, Brand was catching up with some pals in a pub in chilly Coverack, Cornwall, without his ring on either. They’re definitely having problems . “They haven’t split up just yet, but things aren’t good,” acknowledged the source, adding that the divorce rumors are untrue, but rooted in reality. “The fighting is getting worse.” At issue? Among other things, explains another source: “Katy doesn’t think that Russell respects her parents’ Christian beliefs or her friends.” UPDATE : Looks like it’s officially over, as the actor filed divorce papers today. Follow the link for the scoop on Russell Brand and Katy Perry’s divorce . [Photo: WENN.com]

Taylor Kinney and Lady Gaga Step Out, Go Public

Lady Gaga’s officially going public with boyfriend Taylor Kinney. With a series of just-released photos in which she makes no attempt to hide her affection, the 25-year-old is finally acknowledging what we’ve known for months: She and The Vampire Diaries ‘ Taylor Kinney are an item, and a cute one at that. Sources say they’re taking it slow, but definitely going strong. Gaga, who first met Kinney on the set of her “You and I” music video (below) when he starred as her love interest and makeout partner, casually slung her arm over her boyfriend’s shoulder as they strolled along a California beach. While the pair appear cozy and are getting along fabulously, a source close to Gaga insists they’re not super serious – mostly because of the strains of her career. “They’re hooking up and getting to know each other,” explains the insider. “Gaga can’t be too committed because she works 24/7. But she thinks he’s the best!” Good to hear. Let’s just hope they make time for each other! Lady Gaga – You and I (Official Video) [Photos: WENN.com]

Is Nicole Scherzinger Leaving The X Factor?

Acknowledging a few mistakes made on the first season of The X Factor – too much judge bickering, overly involved production numbers – Simon Cowell told People Magazine this week he’ll evaluate all aspect of the show for season two and that 2012 will be a “bloodbath.” We assume the producer was talking about the on-air competition, but might he also have been referring to backstage changes on the way? Nicole Scherzinger – Pretty (Live on The X Factor) With rumors that Steve Jones won’t be asked back as host, Nicole Scherzinger recently laid the groundwork for her departure, as well. “Next year for me, it’s about my music,” the singer told Radar Online. “This has been quite a learning experience, quite a journey for me. I didn’t expect to have been so emotional through the whole elimination process. I wanted to just mentor and empower artists.” Scherzinger said she had planned to release an album in 2011, but her judging gig was too “time consuming.” Will you miss Nicole as a judge if she leaves? The former Pussycat Doll came under fire a couple of this this season, actually receiving death threats after not voting to keep Drew Ryniewicz on for another week. Do you want Scherzinger to return to the panel next year?

How Will Prince William and Kate Middleton Spend New Year’s Eve?

The UK’s (and THG’s) favoritest couple Prince William and Kate Middleton will be surrounded by loved ones when they ring in their first year as newlyweds. According to reports, William and Kate, both 29, will travel to Aberdeen, Scotland, and will stay at Birkhall, a 53,000-acre estate belonging to William’s dad. “They will stay for New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day,” a source reveals. “Prince Charles and Camilla will be flying there, too.” But that’s not all … William and Kate’s whirlwind holiday plans continue … Unlike her first Christmas at the Palace, Kate’s parents, Michael and Carole Middleton, are “expected at Birkhall for the festivities,” the source believes, which is nice. “They are staying at Teapot Cottage or another cottage on the estate, not Birkhall itself,” says the insider , although the Middletons will be welcomed by the family. No word yet on the NYE plans of Prince Harry and Pippa Middleton , but we hope it involves them being together. Someone really needs to start a petition for that.

Which Hollyweird Actress Was Spotted Rubbing Her Assets On The Black Mamba At WTT Concert Last Week?

Looks like Kobe Bryant will never be lonely. Not if bangers like this one keep throwing themselves at him. Kobe Bryant’s impending divorce may come as good news to Sanaa Lathan. A source who attended Jay-Z and Kanye West ’s Watch the Throne concert at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Tuesday tells us that the luscious-lipped “Love & Basketball” actress was flirting seductively with the Lakers guard during the show. “She touched his face, and she was shaking her a– in front of him to the music,” says the insider. Bryant’s spokesman, Michael Sitrick, says Bryant and Lathan were “both at the concert,” but he adds: “There was no flirting. There’s nothing there.” According to our source, Lathan, 40, who’s the voice of Donna Tubbs on “The Cleveland Show,” came to the concert with a girlfriend, and Bryant, 33, who was with teammate Matt Barnes and a bodyguard, were initially seated on adjacent couches in the club-like friends-and-family VIP area behind center stage. Kim Kardashian , Beyoncé and Jake Gyllenhaal were among the other celebs in attendance. Eventually, Lathan and Bryant ended up standing next to each other, and that’s when our source said the actress, who was drinking champagne, became progressively more flirtatious with the NBA star, who stuck to soft drinks, presumably because he’s in training. Lathan, attired in a sexy white-chiffon dress over what appeared to be a black bra, was “whispering in his ear” and at one point stroked the ballplayer’s face. “It seemed like a pretty intimate gesture,” says the source. At one point she left her seat and when she came back, she made sure she was standing next to Kobe again,” says the source She also danced to Jay-Z and West’s performance in front of Bryant. “She was throwing her head everywhere. Her hair was like slapping him in the face,” laughs the source, who adds that at one point, one of the straps of Lathan’s dressed slipped enticingly off her shoulder. When West performed “All of the Lights,” Bryant and Lathan danced together. Sitrick denies this however, saying, “There was no touching of the face, and he did not dance with her.” Despite Lathan’s attentions, the source noted that Bryant seemed “moody” and “down,” and the two seemed to go their separate ways. Bryant’s glum disposition may have had to do with his wife, Vanessa Bryant ’s, decision to initiate divorce proceedings after 10½ years of marriage. The case was filed in Orange County Superior Court on Friday. We’re pretty sure Kobe stopped checking for Sanaa’s “type” over a decade ago. He’s been stepping out on ‘Nessa with Becky’s but we haven’t heard a word about any sisters, so we’re pretty sure even if she was rubbing on him it was all in good fun. Speaking of good fun, Sanaa you can rub up on us anytime, and won’t even have to worry about snakebites! Source More On Bossip! More Basketball Wives Beef!!!
