Posted on 29 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Chris Evert and Greg Norman Wed in BahamasChris Evert and Greg Norman were married on Saturday in a sunset ceremony in the Bahamas, the couple confirmed to PEOPLE exclusively.

The tennis and golf legends, both 53, exchanged vows in front of 140 family and friends, including Matt Lauer and singer-songwriter Corey Hart.

“They wanted a romantic wedding,” says event planner Mary Fanizzi Krystoff, who decorated the outdoor ceremony and reception areas with cream and blush florals. “They wanted their friends and family to enjoy a wonderful weekend together.”

Evert’s youngest son Colton, 12, served as ring bearer, and sons Nicky, 14, and Alex, 16, walked her down the aisle. Also present were Norman’s daughter Morgan, 23, and son Gregory Jr., 21, who served as best man.

The bride wore a wedding gown by Carolina Herrera. The groom’s suit was by Ermenegildo Zegna.

The wedding weekend kicked off on Friday with a golf and tennis tournament. Wines from Greg Norman Estates were served at both the Friday rehearsal dinner and Saturday’s reception.

Evert and Norman got engaged on Dec. 9 while traveling in South Africa. This is the second marriage for him and the third for her.

Madonna Prays in New York, Guy Ritchie Prays in London

Posted on 29 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Madonna Prays in New York, Guy Prays in London | Guy Ritchie, MadonnaWith no wedding ring on her finger and no husband in sight, Madonna and her three children – and Carlos Leon, 11-year-old daughter Lourdes’s biological dad – visited Manhattan’s Kabbalah Centre Friday night for Sabbath services and returned again on Saturday.

So where was Guy Ritchie, rumored to be splitting with Madonna? Although the British Sun tabloid had an unnamed source saying he was going to fly to New York in an effort to save his marriage, Ritchie was seen Saturday in London, also attending a Kabbalah meeting.

He was then seen meeting up with Trudie Styler (Sting’s wife) back at his London home, and they drove off together.

Last week, the London Times reported that Madonna had consulted noted divorce British attorney Fiona Shackleton, who had represented Paul McCartney and Prince Charles in their bitter divorces from, respectively, Heather Mills and Princess Diana.

Madonna’s spokesperson, Liz Rosenberg, said, “Madonna has rarely worn a wedding band over these last six years, so there’s no secret message about that.”

On Friday night, Madonna’s group came in three waves, with Leon and Lourdes arriving first, quickly followed by an SUV carrying her son (with Ritchie) Rocco, 7, and adopted son David, 2, each child with a nanny.

Fifteen minutes later, around 8:45, Madonna arrived, wearing a black skirt and a black tank top over a white T-shirt. The service had just about ended, with a dinner about to begin. Madonna stayed some 20 minutes before leaving with Rocco and David for her home on Central Park West, according to a source.

Attended Bar Mitzvah

On Saturday, Madonna and her three children returned to the center for services. Her presence didn’t create any kind of stir, as congregants gave her hardly any notice.

With Lourdes at her side, Madonna sat in a front-row seat, wearing a black baseball cap and tight black T-shirt. David, in a white baseball cap and Rocco sporting a Yankees cap, spent much of the time playing quietly with some other children on the floor of the sanctuary.

A bar mitzvah took place, and at its conclusion Rocco joined all the congregants in throwing Sunkist fruit gem candies at the bar mitzvah boy.

At the service’s conclusion, Lourdes wrapped her arms around her mother’s neck and gave her a big, long hug.

In Manhattan to rehearse for her upcoming world Sticky & Sweet tour, which kicks off Aug. 23 in Wales, Madonna has stuck to a rigid schedule.

First, according to a source, she works out at home. Then, at 2:15 each afternoon, Madonna leaves for a studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, where she and members of the tour practice numbers.

Meanwhile, the children and several nannies, often also accompanied by Leon, spend time playing outside or in Central Park, the source says.

Jennifer Aniston Waits Backstage at John Mayer Concert

Posted on 29 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Jennifer Aniston Waits Backstage at Mayer Concert | Jennifer Aniston, John MayerJennifer Aniston and John Mayer continued to keep their romance firmly off the radar Saturday.
Slipping unnoticed into the musician’s backstage area at the Hard Rock Calling festival in London’s Hyde Park, Aniston stood quietly in the wings while the “Georgia Calling” singer ran through a 45-minute set in front of an audience of ten of thousands.

But the actress wasn’t just there to lend moral support: wearing a black-and-white floral halter-neck top and faded flared jeans, Aniston busily snapped away with her camera to record Mayer’s on-stage performance.

It was the second time in two days that Aniston had joined Mayer for one of his gigs. On Friday, she took a seat in the upper level of the gritty south London venue, the Brixton Academy, before leaving with Mayer at around 11:30 p.m.

Earlier this week, the couple united in Amsterdam, where she was promoting the upcoming Marley and Me (with Owen Wilson) and Mayer was performing.

In keeping with the low-key theme of her London visit, she never once ventured into the Hard Rock VIP area and quietly left the show without anyone noticing.

Even the paparazzi camped outside her London hotel were left guessing.

Mayer later appeared on stage at the end of the show alongside headliner Eric Clapton and Aniston’s close friend Sheryl Crow. But again Aniston was absent.

Mayer is due to perform at the Glastonbury Festival on Sunday. His European tour then moves onto Copenhagen.

Chris Evert and Greg Norman Wed in Bahamas

Paris Hilton Making Music with Benji Madden

Posted on 28 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Paris Hilton Making Music with Benji Madden | Benji Madden, Paris HiltonIt’s good to have a musical boyfriend.

Benji Madden has already recorded a song about Paris Hilton, and now the Good Charlotte guitarist is helping her with her own music.

Hilton, 27, told E! News that she and Madden, 29, are hard at work on the theme song to her upcoming MTV reality show My New BFF.
“Benji and I have been working hard on it,” she said. “He’s helping me write the lyrics for the song and then I’ll sing it, too.”

The couple, who’ve been dating for four months, are laying down the track at a studio located, conveniently enough, in her Beverly Hills mansion.

Premiering later this year, My New BFF will follow the former Surreal Life star as she chooses a new shopping buddy from 20 contestants.

Hilton also plans to start working on the follow-up to her 2006 debut CD Paris. “I’ll have another album come out, for sure,” she told E! News. “I just don’t know when yet. I only have the summer off, then I’ll be taping another season of BFF. But an album is something I’ll do.”

Jennifer Lopez Needs To Become Talented

Posted on 27 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

According to New York Daily News, Puerto Rican diva Jennifer Lopez has run into some legal problems.

A flight attendant says J. Lo’s guard dog bit her leg on a flight two years ago, which has since caused back injuries so sever she can’t work anymore.  The flight attendant has filed a $5 million lawsuit.

Guess this means Jennifer needs to come up with some other money-making scheme.  Perhaps one that works this time.  Her movies bomb, her music doesn’t sell, and her clothing lines are of poor quality.

The ridiculous million dollar baby photos were negotiated to pay off an outstanding IRS payment, so maybe she can pay for some doctors to turkey baste her vagina again.  She can get the trend started and try for some triplets.  In vitro seemed to already work well with her, so she might as well.

Here’s Jennifer showing some sweet cleavage and shopping in Spain earlier this week.

Sarah Larson tried to stiff George Clooney’s staff behind his back?

Posted on 27 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Everyone is still busy speculating over what went wrong between George Clooney and Sarah Larson. The two split up after a year together – absolutely beyond record length for a Clooney liaison. Before that, his longest – and I’m guessing deepest – relationship was with his pot bellied pig, Max. Mike Walker of the National Enquirer has another theory as to what might have gone wrong, and according to him, Ms. Larson got a little too big for her britches in the Clooney household.

New clue in the intriguing mystery of why George Clooney abruptly dumped ex-cocktail waitress Sarah Larson - even after generously buying her new boobs and teeth! The bust-up occurred in part because risqué photos surfaced along with rumors of her fling with an old flame - plus sordid tales of her wild past that freaked Clooney out, as reported by The Enquirer - but here’s a tasty chunk of my very own prime gossip filet, folks:

Word’s just now drifting out from the star’s inner circle that Sarah, who once depended on tips herself as a scantily clad booze-server in Vegas, suddenly started acting like the future Missus Clooney around The Man’s household, cruelly ordering cutbacks to the hefty gratuities Generous George regularly lavishes on his personal staff.

For months, Clooney had no clue about Stingy Sarah’s sly cutbacks, but when worried staffers finally asked one of his higher-ups if the boss had trimmed everyone’s tips because he was unhappy with their work, the whistle finally blew loudly in the star’s ear and he went ballistic - raging that NO ONE had the right to counterman his orders! Just days after Clooney’s shocking discovery, it was suddenly “See ya, Sarah!”

Frankly it seems pretty clear to me that whatever ended George and Sarah’s relationship, I’ll bet it was an excuse. George Clooney does not date women long, and I’m sure he knew that if he went on much longer, he’d be expected to marry Sarah. The gossip was reaching a boiling point as it was.

I’m guessing he waited for the first thing she did wrong, and then gave Sarah the boot. A Clooney relationship isn’t a traditional one where the two people are partners who work together through issues. You get to date George – and he takes pretty good care of you, buying you new body parts and such – for a few months until he loses interest.

As soon as his relationship with Sarah deviated from his tried and true format, suddenly his entire identity was probably up in the air and he started looking for a way out. I wouldn’t be surprised if the actual dumping was because of something relatively trivial, though the idea that Sarah ever had enough control to influence his staff’s paychecks seems a little unlikely to me. Either way, she set a Clooney relationship record, and she left with two lovely parting gifts.

Here are Sarah and George at the Oscars on February 24th. Images thanks to WENN.

David Addington and The Barnacle Branch Exhibits

Posted on 27 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Remember how, in lieu of an opening statement, David Addington entered a bunch of “exhibits” into the record yesterday?

Well, it looks like Addington was trying to do a couple of things with his collection of exhibits. First, and least interesting, was to make sure he had three documents in which President Bush directly guided the nation’s torture policy ready at hand:

  • February 7, 2002 Bush memo calling for detainees to be treated humanely–but without Geneva Convention rights
  • September 6, 2006 press conference in which Bush admitted to water-boarding Al Qaeda detainees
  • July 20, 2007 Bush Executive Order establishing guidelines for interrogations

More interesting, Addington was making sure that the correspondence between HJC and OVP regarding his own testimony was readily available. And I think he did that for two reasons. The correspondence includes a fairly narrow description of what the expected testimony would include:

  • No representations about “the nature and scope of Presidential power in time of war” or US “policies regarding interrogation of persons in the custody of the nation’s intelligence services and armed forces”
  • Only “personal knowledge of key historical facts” relating to interrogation and presidential power
  • No details about Vice Presidential communications to the President
  • No details “relating to the Senate functions of the Vice Presidency”
  • The availability of applicable legal privileges (don’t miss the bit of snark where footnote 11 in the April 28 Conyers letter reminds, “I assume that counsel’s citation to the’state secrets’ privilege was an oversight as that is a judge-made litigation privilege that has no application before a Committee of Congress”)

In other words, Addington wanted to be ready to show his hall pass and prove that certain questions–about Dick’s role in outing a CIA spy or Dick’s role in killing most of the salmon in the Northwest; or about whether Dick ever told Bush that the warrantless wiretapping program was illegal; or why Dick voted to drown the federal government in a bathtub on December 21, 2005–would be out of bounds.

In addition, Addington seems to have wanted evidence of a little squabble over the Fourth Barnacle Branch, such as this argument:

The Committee request seeks authoritative representation on the three subjects identified in the Committee request. The Chief of Staff to the Vice President is an employee of the Vice President, and not the President. With respect to Presidential power in wartime and related issues under U.S. and international law, the Attorney General or his designee would be the appropriate witness. Regarding interrogation of persons by U.S. intelligence agencies or the armed forces, the Director of National Intelligence or his designee and the Secretary of Defense or his designee, respectively, would be the appropriate witness. You may wish to invite the appropriate subordinates of the President in lieu of your invitation o the Chief of Staff to the Vice President.

[snip]

Congress lacks the constitutional power to regulate by a law what a Vice President communicates in the performance of the Vice President’s official duties, or what a Vice President recommends that a President communicate in the President’s official duties, or what a Vice President recommends that a President communicate in the President’s performance of official duties, and therefore those matters are not within the Committee’s power of inquiry.

[snip]

… questions of privilege may arise with respect to information sought by questions, such as respect to privileges protecting state secrets, attorney-client communications, deliberations, and communications among Presidents, Vice Presidents, and their advisers. For example, the amount of useful information a Committee of Congress would be likely to receive from a person who served as Counsel to the Vice President and then Chief of Staff to the Vice President concerning official duties is quite limited, given that a principal function of such a person is engaging in privileged communications, such as the giving of privileged advice. Also, inquiry by a House Committee concerning the Senate functions of the Vice President would not, in any event, be appropriate.

That is, Addington wanted to be ready to pick another fight about the Fourth Barnacle Branch of government, arguing that it somehow escapes all oversight even while having available all the privileges of the Executive Branch.

That Addington came prepared to be belligerent is no surprise. But reading these documents made me wonder why he testified in the first place. Which brings me to the last document included in his stash, Stephen Bradbury’s opinion arguing that Harriet Miers is immune from testifying before HJC. Presumably, Addington was preparing to wave around a document stating that Harriet didn’t have to testify because, “The President is head of one of the independent Branches of the federal Government.” Presumably, Addington, if pressed, was going to argue that since the Vice President is head of the barnacle branch of the federal government his former counsel–Addington himself–didn’t have to testify either.

But how pathetic is that? Addington made it pretty clear yesterday that he didn’t want to testify … but he did. I sort of wonder whether Addington couldn’t get Stephen Bradbury–no opponent of the Barnacle Branch, really–to write him a letter excusing him from testifying. And so instead he brought Harriet’s letter, ready to argue that
the Barnacle Branch and an independent branch of government are just the same legally.

Come to think of it, maybe that’s why he brought all those torture documents with Bush’s signature on them–just in case the Barnacle Branch argument didn’t work, he could start threatening Bush.

The Return Of Miley Cyrus’ Ass Lips

Posted on 27 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

It’s amazing to think she looks good when she does that.  Miley Cyrus is still having sex with herself on camera, as seen here in these newly leaked released candids of the 15-year-old narcissist.

Every time I see her pucker her lips all I can see is my dog’s asshole before her bowels expel her dinner.

Do you think these are common gestures and photos for a 15-year-old?

Busty Model Christi Shaka Prepares Herself For Money Shot

Posted on 27 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

That’s the same look she makes right before the dudes unload their seeds all over her pretty face.

Model Christi Shaka at the Red Carpet Runway Magazine “Summer Splash” Fashion Show in Hollywood yesterday.

I couldn’t find anything about this girl, which is a shame ’cause she’s pretty hot.  Natural looking pillowy chest, and hair the color of fire.  Her mating game is in high gear.
