Lindsay Lohan has posted the following Tweets after Michael Lohan recorded and leaked her private phone conversations. I don't even know why Lindsay's responding to Michael.  She's just feeding the beast.

Lindsay needs a good lawyer and publicist to issue statements about how "disappointing" Michael's actions are and how he "violated her trust." Then they can throw in some politically correct jargon about how they will rip him a new one if he doesn't halt his defamation campaign.

Regardless, there was NOTHING special about Lindsay's tapes. We have all heard someone crying at some point in our lives or the other. Michael is so crazy. I'm sure he's probably brainstorming right now, thinking about what else he can leak for a paycheck.

Chris Brown posted a montage video from his Twitter page that has led some bloggers to believe that he must really be missing Rihanna and wants her back.

The video has CB's song "The Way We Used to Be" playing in the background, and Chris and Rihanna look very happy in love throughout the footage. One of the cutest pictures ever is also used as the final shot in the video, which makes you say 'awwww!'

But Chris s a slut who hits on every woman within a one-mile radius. He misses his money more than he misses Rihanna, and this slick move is PR gold. The video is really cute! Check it.

Some bloggers are claiming that Whitney Houston was high like Balloon Boy's helium balloon while on the X-Factor. Whitney sang her new song "Million Dollar Bill" and I think her performance was good. I wouldn't call it 'great' cause I think Whitney's days of greatness are ovah.

Unfortunately Whitney had a very obvious wardrobe malfunction - the strap on her dress popped open fairly early in her performance!

After Whitney sang, she was interviewed and she said that her album is dropping in the UK "this week" and didn't give a specific date. That doesn't make her high in my book; it's hard to remember when your album comes out in each part of the world place on the planet.

Was Whitney high? I dunno! I think part of the reason why we think she behaved strangely is because she hasn't done much performing in forever and we know of her past, therefore we're quick to say 'B*itch is HIGH!' Hopefully she was just buzzing off some wine backstage, which doesn't mean she's having a relapse.

Khloe Kardashian is full of contradictions. She appeared on Life & Style to brag about about losing 25 pounds, then was featured on a separate cover where she said that she allegedly dropped TWO dress sizes in a month, yet she proclaims that she's so secure with herself and her body?

Khloe and Kim Kardashian have become obsessed with the unhealthy weightloss product that they're promoting: Quick Trim. Khloe and Kim have made numerous mentions of the product over the past month or so and they even proudly post their "after" pictures as if they needed to lose weight in the first place! Khloe and Kim are beautiful, naturally curvy women.

On Wednesday Khloe wrote,

I talk about Quick Trim quite a lot. But that's only because I'm both shocked and thrilled with its results. It was seriously the best thing I've ever done in my life and I've never felt so good in my own skin. I mean, look at the before and after pics above....the difference is pretty drastic LOL.

Khloe has always been a haterade magnet because she's tall and bigger than her siblings. I'm happy for her if she's happy, but it's time for her to stop obsessing. Her fans are being beaten over the head with the wrong message about doing whatever it takes to get slim. Mrs. Lamar Odom's love for her smaller frame (which may change since she lost weight with a temporary quick fix) can turn into an eating disorder.

Real Housewives of Atlanta's Kim Zolciak says that she is no longer in a relationship with human ATM machine Lee Najjar, aka Big Poppa.

Kim appeared at the 2009 Fox Reality Channel's Really Awards where she confessed that she's no longer a mistress, at least not with Big Poppa. "Big Papa and I ended it. At the end of the day, he will always be the love of my life, but it's time for me to move on" and find someone else to pay my bills.

Kim also talked about NeNe Leakes and Kandi Burruss.

On NeNe:

"I've just moved past it with Nene, and I think her true colors have really surfaced, and they will continue to do so. I wish her the best."

On Kandi:

"She is strong and she will pull through, but she is devastated. I went to the funeral on Friday, and I don't think I have ever been that sad in my whole life. I don't want to see my friend upset. It's terrible. It's something that will stay with me for life."

I'm gonna do a finale recap like I did last year, and I'll get into my 2 cents on the cast then. But NeNe is so disappointing. Fame went to her head at the speed of light. Kim, on the other hand? Her selfishness continues to shine through all that wig hair. Kimberly attends AJ'S FUNERAL and SHE doesn't think that SHE has ever been that sad in HER entire life and SHE doesn't want to see her friend upset, and it will stay with HER for life.

Kim's so cluelessly self-absorbed, I don't even know if I can be mad at her for being so overwhelmingly selfish and oblivious.

Halle Berry appeared on The Jay Leno Show where she said that she wanted to "put all the pregnancy rumors to bed."

Ms. Berry says she is not pregnant and she must have just been enjoying too much junk food. Her body is still banging, really, so people should shut it. There's no reason for her to be "getting a complex" about her body.

After Halle says that she's not pregnant, she tells a funny story about some dumb lady in the grocery store talking to her daughter, Nahla. This interview made me think: As much as I don't like Jay Leno cause his chin causes global warming and contributes to overpopulation, he must have forged many great relationships with people in the entertainment industry for his show to launch with A-listers talking to him about current gossip.

Well done, Jay! I'm sure a Kathy Griffin show would only have guests that we have never heard of.

If there's anyone who's benefiting from the Kanye West and Taylor Swift VMA speech disruption, it's Jay Leno. The former Tonight Show host launched a new show yesterday and asked the controversial rapper questions that he knew would generate much buzz. A humiliated Yeezy opened up on his self reflection in the aftermath of his pro-Beyonce outburst.

Kanye didn't exactly bawl, but he got choked up and his responses kind of broke my heart. There really is no excuse for what he did and I think missing his mom does not replace common sense or the benefits of sobriety (he was drinking on the red carpet), but it must be very difficult to deal with your mistakes publicly. Backlash is no joke.

Kanye said, "It was just very rude, period."

"Obviously, I deal with hurt, and so many celebrities, they never take the time off, and I never took the time off, really. I've really never taken the time off. It's been music after music and tour after tour. And I'm just ashamed my hurt caused someone else hurt."

I'm all for Kanye taking time off if that time off includes some extensive therapy. The man needs help! His Napoleon complex has been raging outta control for years now and I truly believe that he would continue to act the fool if he didn't receive such negative responses on Sunday.

Kanye West Jay Leno Interview

Kanye West reacts impulsively, like children do. Kanye impulsively rushed the stage and grabbed Taylor Swift's mic while she was accepting her MTV award for Best Female Video. Hours later he also impulsively posted an "apology" on his blog.

The only problem is that Kanye's apology SUCKS and sounds insincere. I almost feel like he'd look better if he didn't apologize at all since he came up with nonsensical, incoherent crap.

This man child sounds like an inarticulate headcase in his apology - he is embarrassing himself further.

What you did is not cute, Kanye, and we don't give a f*ck that you're watching the awards at your crib and telling us that Beyonce had the best video of the decade! Are we not allowed to form our own opinions? We all have different tastes but somehow Kanye thinks he's the authority and the end all be all of the music industry.

Time for an extensive PR campaign!

Kanye's apology is after the jump Continue Reading...

Where. Do. I. Begin.

Taylor Swift, 19, won the MTV Award for Best Female Video when Kanye West bumrushed the stage, grabbed her microphone and proclaimed, "Yo, Taylor, I'm really happy for you, and I'm going to let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time, one of the best videos of all time!"

Beyonce was stuck in WTF mode, the crowd booed, Kanye was escorted out by security, and his performance was canceled.

Taylor is a gifted and gracious young talent. It took a lot of work for her to get as far as she did in the music business and attain the level of success that she has; then an angry little midget interrupts and embarrasses her. WHY?!

Why does Kanye West care that Beyonce has not won ANOTHER award? Beyonce has picked up dozens of trophies from Destiny's Child and her solo work. Did Kanye have to convey his opinion on live television? Why does he feel that his personal preferences should determine who deserves awards?

Kanye said that he wants to be a better person and do the things that his mother would want him to do, but he has not grown as a person. It's so disturbing to watch a grown man act like a misbehaving child. Sadly Kanye will never live this down. Fans of his music may become just that - fans of his music. The man behind the music does not deserve our respect.

Kanye West making an a*s outta himself at the VMAs this year:

Kanye West ranting about not winning a VMA in 2007:

ALSO, I'll be posting celebrity Twitter reactions and Beyonce inviting Taylor on stage later tomorrow cause my computer keeps freezing up tonight.

Ellen DeGeneres will be replacing Paula Abdul on American Idol. So what exactly are Ms. Degeneres' credentials?

She says, "I have not missed one episode," she loves to dance, and she frequently sings off key. I smell some sh*t and it came from a bull, y'all, cause this is some straight bullsh*t!

After the audition rounds, which will feature celebrity judges, Ellen will fill Paula's seat beginning in January.

At yesterday's taping of the Ellen DeGeneres Show, Ellen announced, "I've been dying to tell everyone. It's just been so hard to keep it a secret and we just finally got the OK and I'm so excited. It is going to be so much fun."

Music is not this woman's area of expertise and she's probably going to try to be funny. American Idol isn't the right fit for Ellen's snarky sarcastic genius. She thinks that judging will "be so much fun," but how fun will it be when she doesn't have an ear for music? And to think that Paula couldn't get the money that you know Idol will be paying Ellen. I guess this is a lame attempt for Idol producers to spike ratings and prove that they're not sexist. Can I vote Ellen off the show?

Check out the video of Ellen talking about being the new judge after the jump!
