Mariah Carey-James Packer: Insane Prenup Details, REVEALED!

Mariah Carey may or may not be pregnant with Bryan Tanaka’s baby . There’s been talk going around the Internet that the singer and her backup dancer are already an item, just several days after she split from fiance James Packer. That’s up for debate. What has been confirmed, however, is that Carey and Packer were in the middle of negotiation a prenuptial agreement when they broke up. And the details of the document are a bit unusual. According to TMZ, a draft of the prenup was sent to Mariah’s camp not long before this relationship came to an end, with reps for Carey rejecting it as “tacky and insulting.” Let’s take a look at various clauses and you can see if you agree, alright? This passage was considered one of the more controversial conditions of the proposed agreement: Except for gifts between them for their engagement, wedding or on birthdays and anniversaries, no item of jewelry and/or personal adornment costing over $250,000 will be deemed a gift unless accompanied by, or promptly followed by, a writing specifically stating ‘This is my gift to you.’ Look, all marriages should spell out who gets to keep which so-called gifts valued at over $250,000, shouldn’t they? It’s only fair. Elsewhere, Packer agreed to purchase certain items clothing for the artist… … but there’s a blank space for the couple to agree upon a maximum amount he had to shell out. The document also read that this clothing would not to be used for business or performing and “Mariah shall provide all clothing for her children.” Who are we to judge another couple, we know. If Carey and Packer were happy and in love, they could include anything they want to in their prenup. But it’s pretty clear they were NOT happy and in love, especially not when we see the kinds of business-like conditions they were putting on their romance. The singer and the Australian billionaire ended their engagement in late October. The reasons why remain unclear, but insiders close to Carey have deemed Packer to be violent and mentally unstable . There’s been talk that something happened between Packer and Carey’s assistance during a vacation in Greece a few weeks back and that the stars haven’t even talked since. It’s a pretty huge mess. James Packer Dumps Mariah Carey! This was another clause in the prenup: James shall cause a credit card(s) to be issued for use by Mariah and staff … the amount of expenses … shall not exceed US $____ per calendar month. The amount was blank. And also: James shall provide the use of one private aircraft, of his selection, for Mariah’s personal use, or that of her children and nannies only when James, in his sole discretion, determines it is appropriate to do so. What was the main reason why negotiations fell apart? This provision, TMZ alleges: James will pay Mariah, and Mariah shall accept, $6 million dollars per year for each full year of marriage, up to a maximum of $30 million … adjusted pro-rata on a weekly basis [$151,385 per week]. Carey supposedly turned down this dollar amount and is now demanding a $50 million payout from Packer, one that she says he agreed to make if the marriage fell apart.

Miley Cyrus Actually Confirms Liam Hemsworth Engagement

As most of the Internet knows by now, Miley Cyrus is unafraid to expose her nipples on a regular basis But while you may think this makes the singer especially open and revealing… you’d be mostly correct. Except when it comes to her love life. Good luck getting Miley to say much about Liam Hemsworth. The stars got engaged way back in 2012, only to break up several months later. Fast forward two years and Miley and Liam didn’t appear to simply be back together, but Cyrus was spotted wearing her old engagement ring once again. Through endless rumors of a reconciliation, however, we still heard very little from the actual parties involved. Which is what made Miley’s most recent appearance on Ellen so notable. The artist, who is very close with the comedian, was asked about the sparkler on her finger, actually acknowledging (for the first time, as far as we can recall) that she’s engaged to Hemsworth. “Congratulations,” Ellen said simply in response. Cyrus went on to explain why she often does NOT wear the engagement ring – and it’s not because she and Liam broke up due to her penchant for pot . “This is really weird because this is like real jewelry and most of my jewelry is made out of gummy bears and cotton candy and they don’t look that good together because they kind of mix up, so sometimes I replace it with an actual unicorn or a Looney tune,” Miley said. Miley Cyrus Talks Engagement Ring What does Hemsworth say when he notices that his fiancee isn’t rocking her finger bling? “He’s kind of like what’s going on? It’s like, well, this isn’t really my aesthetic, but I’ll wear it because you love me,” she replied. AWWWW, right? How sweet! Cyrus recently admitted that her first hookup was with a female , but she seems to be happily settled down now with a male. It probably helps that he looks like Liam Hemsworth and that he gave her such a pretty ring: And that he’s nice and caring and sweet and has a big heart and everything, too. Those are nice bonuses. “The ring is special because Miley and Liam worked on it together,” a source told E! News. “Miley specifically wanted it set in gold. She didn’t want platinum. She liked the gold because it was different and unique, like her. She didn’t want anything classic or generic.” Interesting. We weren’t aware of that. Watch the video above for Miley’s complete interview with Ellen. And then join us in sending Cyrus and Hemsworth your best wishes. They’re engaged! For real! Officially! HOORAY!

Jaheim Is Still Very Sensitive About His Hair

13 Reasons to Be Glad You Never Slept With Brad Pitt

1. His hair looks like it smells like a frat house couch It’s greasy, it’s generally unkempt, and mostly slicked back with some kind of sticky substance. Also, it smells like pot, cigarettes, and booze. Basically, you’d be doing the dirty on – or worse, with – the old frat house sofa. Gross. 2. Alcohol has given him major face bloat He’s still cute, but we’re not talking Legends of the Fall cute, anymore. If rumors of alcohol abuse are as true – and as rampant – as Jolie persists, Brad’s got some serious alcohol bloat going on, and what’s scarier than wobby man jowls hovering over your face intently? 3. When he’s got a beard, IT’S A BEARD Beards are fun, beards are great, beards like Brad’s kill your ovulate. No, but really, there’s well-groomed, and then there’s flavor-savers. Anywhere in between is fine, but when he grows that goatee (or is that the entire goat?), the last thing we want to be thinking about is intercourse. 4. His mouth probably tastes like an ashtray … Or a chimney. Whichever you prefer. And when you mix coffee and cigarettes, it’s a double-whammy. Trust us. It’s mega gross, unless you’re a coffee-drinking smoker, and then this one probably doesn’t apply to you anyway. 5. He slept with Jennifer Aniston … And don’t you know, it’s not the cooties that are catching, it’s the crazy. And Aniston is the cream of the crazy crop, and do you really want to go there? 6. Gwyneth Paltrow probably put a hex on his dong Being as GOOPy as she is, Gwyneth Paltrow – who once said that Brad was “too good” for her – probably put some kind of magic spell on Brad where his penis consciously uncouples from the rest of his body, thusly making the encounter an astral experience. Or in GOOP’s case, ASStral. View Slideshow

13 Reasons to Be Glad You Never Slept With Brad Pitt

Jay Z: I Can’t STAND Crazy-Ass Kanye West!

Lennon and McCartney. Jagger and Richards. Jay Z and Kanye. Why is it that the best songwriting teams always start off with close friendships, and end with both parties firing hilariously bitchy potshots at one another? For years, we were under the impression that Jay and ‘Ye were the best of friends. Jay gave Kanye his first big break in hip hop when he hired West to produce several tracks on his acclaimed 2001 album The Blueprint , which is still one of the most highly-regarded hip hop records of all time. The two went on to collaborate on dozens of tracks and one platinum-selling joint album, 2011’s Watch the Throne . But for years, fans have been taking note of subtle indications that all is not well between, such as when Jay and Beyonce declined invitations to Kanye and Kim Kardashian’s wedding . Most people who have been famous for as long as these four know how to keep their personal feuds private, but Kanye’s mentality is that of a 4-year-old who’s been handed a microphone and millions of dollars, so he slammed Jay during an onstage tantrum on Wednesday night: Kanye West on Jay Z: We’re DONE, Bruh! According to the tirade, Kanye is pissed at Jay for a number of reasons, not the least of which is that Jay didn’t pay him a visit in the days after Kim Kardashian was robbed at gun point in Paris: “Don’t call me after the robbery and say, ‘How you feelin’?’ You wanna know how I’m feelin’? Come by the house. “Bring the kids by the house like we brothers … Our kids ain’t never even played together.” A Kanye source ran damage control yesterday, not going so far as to say claim that Jay and Kanye are still friends, but insisting that “Jay appreciates Kanye’s genius.” However, it seems Jay’s team won’t even grant that small concession: “That’s just perception,” a source tells Page Six. “The reality is that Jay doesn’t want that much to do with him.  “He likes his own space and is private. They’re very much not the same person. Jay’s immediate circle is very insular, and Kanye is just a guy who always wants something in the spotlight.” A second Jay insider goes even further: “Jay can’t stand him,” says the source. “He looks at him as this crazy, eccentric motherf - - ker he can tolerate in small doses. Kanye is a nut job. Everyone knows that.” Yes, it seems Jay Z is now speaking for all of mankind. And for that, we thank him. The Kanye source continues to insist that all is well between the hip hop megastars, issuing a statement moments ago, saying: “It didn’t seem like Kanye was dissing Jay at all. “They are brothers, closer than friends. Jay appreciates Kanye’s genius, understands his passions and eccentricities and is accepting of it all.” Is it just us, or is this rep way too level-headed to be speaking for Kanye? He could at least issue his statements in all caps.

Justin Bieber to Concert Goers: Shut Up, Already!

Justin Bieber has made a transition. He hasn’t gone off on a cameraman in a very long time. Instead, he’s turned his angry attention to… his very own fans? Yup. It appears that way. Earlier this week, while performing for a crowd in Birmingham, the singer got pretty annoyed with those in attendance. He actually got upset with them for being too loud, for cheering too passionately. “Can you guys do me a favor? Can you guys just relax for like two seconds?” Bieber told attendees, adding: “I get it, I get it, but I’m like two feet away from you and I can hear you. I appreciate it. I appreciate all the love, it’s amazing. But can you show it in a different way? Just try to show you love me in a different way. “Screaming is just so obnoxious.” Yes, Bieber called his fans obnoxious . Because they were excited to be so close to him. He even added, in an especially condescending manner: “I get it, it’s been in our blood and it’s ingrained – you go to a concert and you scream and stuff, but if you could just scream after the song, enjoy the song, scream, it’s awesome, it’s fun and then take a chill pill for a second and listen to me speak. “I don’t feel like I’m being heard sometimes and it gets a little frustrating. When I’m speaking, I ask you not scream at the top of your lungs? “Is that cool with you guys?” We guess they should at least be grateful that Bieber didn’t blow any snot all over them… Justin Bieber Blows Snot on Audience On Thursday night, meanwhile, Bieber was in Manchester, England for a Purpose Tour stop. He was rambling on and on about how everyone has a “purpose,” doing his best to be all profound and everything… when he once again got really annoyed at all the chatter in the audience. He asked everyone to please quiet down. And he was on the receiving end of some boos in the process. “I’ll just get to singing,” he then told his fans, almost as a threat. “I don’t mind cutting the bullsh-t because I don’t need to talk. I’m just trying to engage, but if you guys don’t want to do that then we can just play the music.” Watch Bieber tell off his own crowd here: Justin Bieber Tells Off Crowd While some Bieber followers labeled Justin as “rude” on social media, others stood up for him and vowed to respect his wishes when they see him in person. “#PurposeTourBarcelona is approaching,” one Twitter user wrote. “Let’s not do this to him. Oh my god. We have to let him speak.” Oh my God, no you don’t! You spent lots of money to attend his concert. Go right ahead and talk all you want, scream as loudly as you want. You’ve earned that right. If Bieber continues at this pace, he won’t need to wear a disguise in public again . Fans won’t want to approach him anyway.

Cheryl Cole: Pregnant with Liam Payne’s Baby?

Cheryl Cole may be pregnant with Liam Payne’s baby. We emphasize that she may be. We cannot confirm for certain that the singer is carrying the child of her fellow attractive singer. But let’s examine the evidence behind this claim, which has taken on a pretty viral life of its own, thanks to a rumor started by E! News… THE CASE FOR PREGNANCY: The hashtag “#CongratsLiam” trended on Twitter this week. THE CASE AGAINST PREGNANCY: It may very well have been in response to Payne signing a contract with Republic Records in the U.S. to release a solo album. THE CASE FOR PREGNANCY: Cheryl’s mother was spotted buying “pregnancy goods” this month, according to photos published by British newspaper The Sun. This tabloid broke the news that Joan Callaghan purchased a pregnancy pillow and a wedge to support a baby bump in a Mothercare store. THE CASE AGAINST PREGNANCY: A source subsequently pointed out to The Sun that Joan’s “other children have lots of kids,” meaning she may have been shopping for one of Cole’s siblings. THE CASE FOR PREGNANCY: Cole and Payne were recently seen on a date night in London. The skinny female singer was donning a loose-fitting knit dress and an oversized coat for the occasion. Was she hiding a baby bump? THE CASE AGAINST PREGNANCY: Not everyone who wears a loose-fitting article of clothing is pregnant. THE CASE FOR PREGNANCY: Said Kimberly Walsh, Cheryl’s former Girls Aloud bandmate, to the Sunday People this month: “She’s really happy right now. And she’ll be a brilliant mum. She has loads of nieces and nephews, so she’s used to the madness of children.” THE CASE AGAINST PREGNANCY: Not much to make in response to this quote. That’s potentially very telling. THE CASE FOR PREGNANCY: At some point last month, Payne updated his Twitter bio to read, “the luckiest man in the world.” THE CASE AGAINST PREGNANCY: He is dating Cheryl Cole, who is downright gorgeous. And he has made millions of dollars. And he has plans to release a solo record. And he has a huge, passionate fan base. So he could have been referring to any of these things instead of Cole’s rumored pregnancy. View Slideshow: 13 Celebrity Pregnancies NO ONE Saw Coming IF Payne and Cole are expecting, this will be the second child to come into the One Direction family. Louis Tomlinson is the father of an adorable little boy named Freddie. Do you think Cole is pregnant?!? Do you hope that she is?
