Chris Daughtry’s weight loss since 2010? Pretty impressive. The American Idol Season 5 contestant, who somehow placed fourth before going on to become one of the show’s most successful alumni, is definitely its hottest. The 33-year-old rocker put his Twitter to very good use by showing how fit he’s become since dedicating himself to that three years ago. Goodness. In case you thought the image above is doctored, it’s not … check out an un-retouched image of Chris Daughtry shirtless from a few months back. Exercise and a diet of healthy recipes . It totally works.
Talk about clutch. Blake Harper, a first grader at the Mater Dei School in Santa Ana, Calif., was given a chance to earn his whole class the day off last Monday, after the Super Bowl. All he had to do was hit one free throw. No pressure. Watch what happened, and the ensuing reaction … First-Grader Hits Free Throw ICE in his veins. Eat your heart out, LeBron. Even better? A seventh grader and eighth grader each missed three-pointers with the same prize on the line before Blake stepped up and drained that.
Take heed, Justin Bieber. Stopped on the street last night by TMZ, Three 6 Mafia rapper DJ Paul offered up some advice to the young singer. With photos of Bieber taking sizzurp allegedly making the round, Paul – who is known for his song “Sippin on Some Syrup” – said of the risky cocktail: “I can’t say don’t do [sizzurp] because I did my rounds with it. But I stay away from it these days because I had a lot of friends that passed away from it. It’s dangerous if you do too much of it.” Seriously, JB. We do not want you to die. What about Lil Za and Lil Twist ? Bieber’s close friends who many consider to be bad influences? “Nah, friends are friends,” Paul said . “It’s just a phase they’re going through.”
He may have been the target of a drive-by shooting attempt, but rapper Rick Ross is laughing in the face of mortal danger these days, literally. Stepping out in L.A. Thursday with a big smile on his face and a fat cigar in his mouth, he couldn’t look less like a guy worried about being offed. The Rick Ross shooting attempt in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., caused him to crash his car into a building January 28, but he was unharmed, and unfazed. It’s pretty clear that someone has it out for him – a Chicago gang even made a death threat late last year – but he’s just layin’ back and doin’ his thing. A little too casual, 50 Cent and other conspiracy theorists might say. Fiddy’s gone on record alleging that Ross may have staged it all. Was it a hoax? Maybe. No holes in the car. Or Rick. No! How can you even suggest that. View Poll »
The omnipresent Rihanna is at it again, showing some skin, smoking like a fiend and generally not giving any f–ks in the new issue of Rolling Stone . As always, acclaimed photographer Terry Richardson has outdone himself, as has the Barbados native with a series of provocative and sexy ensembles: She also enjoys smoking. Maybe you’ve noticed. In the magazine, Rihanna opened up about getting back together with Chris Brown despite their history, and despite the controversy she knew it’d cause. “After being tormented for so many years, being angry and dark, I’d rather just live my truth and take the backlash. I can handle it,” she told Rolling Stone . Basically, she’d rather be herself than be liked by you, and if you think she’s making a mistake, she’s going to own that mistake and learn the hard way. Gotta respect Rihanna for living her own life at least, rather than trying to cultivate some fake, innocent, good-girl image for the sake of marketing. Then again, she’s made a living off the good-girl-gone-bad image, so maybe she’s onto something. Or she just really loves Chris, and marijuana. Anyway, check out a bunch more Rihanna pics below!

A photo of Kyle Richards topless has turned up on Twitter. And we shudder to admit: we’ve got it. Her husband, Mauricio Umansky, posted a photo of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star in the pool, staring into the camera, no top to be found. Richards, of course, proceeded to re-Tweet the photo, seemingly reprimanding Umansky by writing as a caption, “we have children.” And, of course, publicizing the picture simultaneously. It’s almost as if that were her plan all along…
Singer and new Voice coach Shakira has released a photo of her baby, for a good cause. That Gerard Pique sure is a handsome fella, isn’t he? Oh, and their son is pictured too! Shakira gave birth two weeks ago to Milan, seen above sharing a sweet moment with his soccer star dad. Want to celebrate the moment with them? The photo was made available through the couple’s UNICEF website , where the charity is accepting $5-110 donations in honor of the arrival of Milan. “We hope that, in his name, other less privileged children in the world can have their basic needs covered through gifts and donations,” Shakira, 36, writes. “Thank you for sharing this unforgettable moment with us.”
