All you celebs out there that bum us out whenever we see you guys smoking: if Simon Cowell can quit, you can too!
Seriously, if there was one person we thought was too stubborn to quit smoking, we would have guessed Simon! On the flip side, he's so worried about his health and body that it'd be crazy for him to continue!
And guess what?

Ah well, it's for the best!
Khloe Kardashian's personality can't be tamed by a teleprompter!
She needs to be a regular round-table guest on a talk show or a regular on those social commentary count-down shows! That's where her true talent lies! In giving unrehearsed opinions!!
Producers from X Factor feel the same (or at least they kinda do) as they have officially announced her exit, saying:

Ask and you shall RECEIVE, Kelly Rowland!
The former Destiny's Child starlet was well-received by UK audiences during her stint on the X Factor judges panel in 2011, but while she only ended up staying for just one season, she expressed interest in bringing her talents back across the pond for the US version!
Fast-forward to NOW…and it appears that her wish might just come TRUE!
Producers of the reality competition's stateside version are reportedly in the final stages of negotiations with the singer, and if all goes according to plan, she'll be the lucky lady taking over for Britney Spears in the third season!
And we think it's safe to say that head honcho Simon Cowell is pretty thrilled with the news, as her salary demand of $2.3 million is MUCH less than the $15 million Miz Spears took in for her one-year commitment!

With 3 people confirmed dead and at least 154 people injured from the Boston Marathon explosions, celebs such as Kim Kardashian, Nicki Minaj and Alicia Keys are taking to their Twitter to send out their love and prayers.
It's not yet clear who is responsible for the bombings, but while it's investigated, #prayforboston has become Twitter's top trend.
Here's what our favorite celebrities are saying:

"Do you know, I've never voted, I never have… I can't be bothered."

Simon Cowell has peeked inside more supermodels than a Beverly Hills gynecologist, but he's never been able to shake the persistent rumor that he might be homosexual!
As it turns out, he doesn't give a rat's ass!
The X Factor star and exec admitted:
"I couldn't care less because it's nothing to be ashamed of. It feels like such an antiquated question now. If I was living 200 years ago in a coal mine, maybe, but I work in possibly the gayest industry in the world."
He's 100% right! One's sexual orientation should NEVER be cause for shame!
He continued:

“I’d be as wild as them at their age.”
