Another day, another workout at Bally's in sunglasses and jewelry for Britney Spears on Tuesday. We're not the only ones enjoying her quieter life these days and Lynne Spears decided to chat with Life & Style about how things are going. She said, “I pray for Britney every day to be a better mother. She’s gone through a lot of trauma, but she seems to be coming out of it — and it’s showing in her relationship with the boys. They’re really bonding. I think 2008 will be a better year for all of us.” While it's still early in the year, it sounds like Lynne is already getting her wish.
After a weekend sporting bikinis in the Bahamas, Fergie headed into TRL on Monday looking pretty badass in her sunglasses and leather jacket. Even more exciting, though, is that her theme song for the Sex and the City movie hit the Internet today! She put her own sassy spin on the show's signature song we all know so well, so give it a listen below and tell us what you think — love it or leave it?
Lucy Liu's Safety Net: Dirty Sexy Money It's not like anyone's actually coming right out and saying that Cashmere Mafia is canceled, but let's face it: When the star bails for another show, it's probably not a good sign. Lucy Liu, most recently seen as Mafia leader Mia, is now in negotiations to star on Dirty Sexy Money. She'd join the cast as a regular character, playing an attorney who may or may not have anything to do with Peter Krause's character.
OK, so this isn't Ryan Gosling's hottest look . . . but we still do love seeing him, so we'll take what we can get. He and Kirsten Dunst were looking equally dirty haired on the set of All Good Things in NYC yesterday. The duo are rumored to be getting hot and heavy off the set (or at least dining together from time to time), and we all know how much Ryan loves to date his co-stars. Anything seems like the wrong call after adorable Rachel McAdams, but these two could grow on me as a couple. Just as long as he loses the wig when the cameras stop rolling.
George Clooney is still enjoying some time abroad after his worldwide Leatherheads tour, and last night he went for his favorite basic black ensemble for dinner at The Ivy in London. George appeared to be in good spirits as usual, but the man still looks like he could use a nap. Once he gets back to LA, it might be a good idea to sleep off his film's lackluster performance of at the box office.
It was Andrew Lloyd Webber week on American Idol, and I'd love to tell you what I thought about the performances, but I was too busy singing along to notice. I'm kidding (kind of), but how fun to see some of our favorite Broadway ballads brought to the Kodak Theater stage. The judges banter was sadly kept to a minimum, despite the fact that they have to fill the hour with only nine to 12 minutes of singing. Just saying.
I'm beginning to think that Syesha could surprise us all in the end. Not only did she look smoking hot last night, but she sounded awesome and finally showed off some personality. Simon thought it was sexy.
Jason Castro was not even all right for me, dawg. His voice sounded weak and, come on, he didn't know the songs in Cats are sung by cats?
Okay, Brooke White, enough with the false starts. For the second time she started and stopped her performance to try again. I found it pretty audacious, as did Paula, but Simon and Randy seemed to think it was the right thing to do. She's still pretty adorable but losing her charm.
Little David Archuleta followed Andrew Lloyd Webber's advice and kept his eyes open! He also had one of the best song choices of the night with "Think of Me." I didn't even mind that he mixed it up a little; the judges loved it too.
ALW definitely saved Carly be steering her towards "Jesus Christ Superstar" and away from "All I Ask of You." Simon thought she was a bit shouty — true. Love her dress.
While I love David Cook's song choice with “Music of the Night,” I have mixed feelings about the performance. He sounded great and really put his heart into it, but there's just something a little silly about Mr. Rocker going Broadway.
Overall, I really enjoyed Andrew Lloyd Weber night and thankfully no one totally botched it. Highlights: Syesha and David Archuleta. Bottom three: Brooke, Jason, Carly. I think we may be saying farewell to our dreadlocked Castro tonight. Check out Buzz for more on last night and let us know who you think is going home.
