"I listened to a lot of her music but it wasn't until I saw her live that I really put the pieces together with her. I really admire the fact she writes all that stuff and she cares so much about what she does and there's so much concept and construct behind everything. I know she polarises opinion but that is only a good thing."

Careful on that bike! Don't want to damage that pretty face of yours!

A motorcycle-riding Ryan Gosling was happy to take off his helmet and pose with fans as he left club Bardot in Hollywood on Thursday night.

Too cute. He made those girls' night!

We heart his insight!

Kayne West took to his blog to address being rumors that he appointed himself the new King of Pop and the ramifications of such a title.

He says:

I WAS JUST LISTENING TO WENDY WILLIAMS AND HEARD SOME QUOTE ABOUT ME SAYING I'M THE NEW KING OF POP. NOT ONLY DID I NOT SAY THAT, I HAVEN'T SAID ANYTHING. IT MAKES ME FEEL BAD THAT OBVIOUSLY I MADE PEOPLE FEEL THAT I WOULD BE CORNY ENOUGH TO SAY SOMETHING SO WHACK AFTER THE PASSING OF AN IDOL, A LEGEND AND MORE THAN THAT A HUMAN BEING WITH FEELINGS AND FAMILY. IT SCARES ME TO THINK WHAT PEOPLE WILL BELIEVE, WITHOUT EVEN A SOURCE. ANY RANDOM PERSON CAN TYPE SOMETHING ON THE INTERNET AND THEN THE WORLD BELIEVES IT. I DON'T TALK TO PRESS OR DO TV OR DO PROMOTIONS OF ANY SORT. I'VE STOPPED CHASING AND BUYING INTO FAME. FAME IS LIKE CIGARETTES WITH NO SURGEON GENERAL WARNING. IT DESTROYS MOST PEOPLE AS IT DID TO THE TRUE AND ONLY KING OF POP. WE EXPLOIT OURSELVES AND EAT OUR OWN EGOS 'TILL THERE IS NOTHING LEFT. I HAVE A FEELING THAT THIS WON'T BE THE LAST FALSE STATEMENT WITH MY NAME ON IT, BUT THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME I DEFEND MYSELF. I'M DONE.

Did 'Nye just talk about ego and exploitation on his very public celebrity blog?!

Just checking!

Always true to herself and keeping things real, Madonna wrote in Friday's edition of the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth about her continued belief in Kabbalah.

She writes: “All the questions I had about life began to be answered and I realized I had finally found a ’belief system’ or philosophy that incorporated Science and Spirituality."

She attributes most of her life decisions to this change in religion, from the adoption of her Malawi children to her fervent practice of yoga. As she embraced the religion fully, things started to change for her: “All the puzzle pieces started falling into place. Life no longer seemed like a series of random events. I started to see patterns in life. I woke up."

It's nice when celebrities dig deep and get real!

Wake up!

She seems incapable of shutting her damn mouth!

On her visit to the Late Show with David Letterman recently, Katherine Heigl continued to spark controversy when she publicly burned Grey's Anatomy for their long work days.

"Our first day back was Wednesday and it was — I'm going to keep saying this because I hope it embarrasses them — a 17-hour day which I think is cruel and mean," said the ungrateful wacktress.

It turns out the the long day was to accommodate Heigl so she could go off and promote her film The Ugly Truth.

She must really want off that show!

Heigl has not commented on the cause of the extended work day, but rumors continue of her diva behavior on the set of her new film Five Killers.

Supposedly, she is making excessive requests including traveling only on private plane and unnecessarily beefing up security.

Security?! No one wants to get near you, kitten!

While both Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian said that their breakup was amicable, we keep hearing reports to the contrary. 

On Kim's end, there are rumors about Kanye.  As for Reggie, as previously mentioned, there's this!

Meet bootylicious Carmen Ortega, the woman who Reggie supposedly cheated with. Well, he definitely has a type.

Ortega is said to be a stripper and prostitution whore professional escort.

Not that there is a winner and a loser in breakups, but if both of these rumors are true, Kim is definitely the winner. 

Cultural Icon Kayne West vs. unknown stripper/escort Carmen Ortega.

You stay classy, Reggie Bush!

Seriously, someone needs to help Kelly Clarkson.

She's supposed to be a superstar! Her job requires her to sing and look good.

And she can't even afford a good stylist???

Friday, Clarkson performed live on Good Morning America's Summer Concert Series at Rumsey Playfield in New York City.

And she decided to go on dressed like THAT.

On national television!

Really?!?!

Kelly, bb, we get that the focus is on the music, but if the clothes are so bad - that's distracting!

Mayjah burn!

Rumors have been circulating that former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin would become another conservative pundit on her own talk radio show.

It turns out out she was straight up DENIED!!!

The rejection didn't just come from anyone! The country's largest radio conglomerate, Clear Channel, turned her down!!

Maybe TV is a better fit!

Her looks are a welcome distraction from what spews out of her mouth!

A song that is almost two years old is burning up the charts in America!

Released FOREVER ago, the Kings of Leon's brilliant Use Somebody has just cracked the America's Top 10, in fact it landed all the way at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week.

We would not be surprised if the old song - new to most Americans - makes it all the way to #1.

That'd be awesome!

And with their newfound mainstream success and exposure in the U.S. comes new opportunities for the Kings of Leon, like big time TV appearances.

Check out the band performing Use Somebody on the Today show Friday morning (above).
