Paris Wants to Be the Next Disney Star

There's a little birdie in town saying that Paris Hilton wants to be the next Disney star. The infamous Page Six reported that the socialite wants to play the role of Tinkerbell in a live-action version of the fairytale. In this particular remake, the sparkly, green-dusted fairy gets chance at life as a real girl. Hollywood's seemingly perfect couple opened up that it simply ain't so. Will and Jada Pinkett Smith went on the records saying they're not perfect and they have bad days just like any other couple. Wifey Jada goes on to say that certain things drive each other crazy. The movie biz duo is still going 11-years strong. And wrapping up, the Grammy noms got announced Wednesday night. With the most tallies, Lil Wayne had 8, followed by Coldplay with 7. Tied at 6 nominations, Jay-Z, Ne-Yo and Kanye West definitely did well. Some other winners-as-of-now, Adele scored 4 Grammy-nominations, Leona Lewis and Rhianna both received 3 among other mentions for Madonna, Robyn, MIA, Pink and Lady Gaga among other artists. Many industry-insiders are surprised that Katy Perry didn't get a Best New Artist nom, and that the Jonas Brothers got nominated for the newbie-title, especially since they really broke out in 2007 and already have 3 released albums.

Carrie Underwood offered a public apology to Jessica Simpson after she announced her ex and Jess' current bf, Tony Romo, still calls her months after their split. In the December issue of Elle magazine, the American Idol singer said she regrets making the statement last August. Underwood also stated that she understands if Simpson got upset and that she never wanted to cause any drama. Is it possible for the ABC hit Grey’s Anatomy to get even more dramatic? Of course. There’s gossip going around town that Brooke Smith – who plays Dr. Hahn – got the axe from the show. However, it’s also being said that it’s because the lesbian relationship with her love interest Dr. Torres, who’s played by Sara Ramirez, and who’s already a solid fixture on the drama, lacks the long-term chemistry and magic that is needed. And the couple who put it all on the line to become engaged on this past season of The Bachelorette have called it quits. The chosen one, Jesse, revealed recently that DeAnna broke it off with him by saying ‘I love you, but I’m not in love with you.’ In the video posted on the previously engaged duo’s website, Jesse said that DeAnna’sa great person but she just doesn’t want to try anymore.
