Repeat Infringer Will.I.Am and Black Eyed Peas Settle Plagiarism Case

Filed under: Music Minute > Legal Matters

wenn26410872.jpg

When will musicians learn to stop ripping off other artists? Will.I.Am needs to learn this lesson well.

As we've mentioned before, Will's been accused several times of ripping off music from other artists.

One of the recent accusations deals with a song by musician Adam Freeland titled Mancry, which somehow had a piece of it ending up in Will.I.Am and the Black Eyed Peas' song Party All The Time

You can check out the "sampling" of Mancry in the BEP's song HERE.

According to reports, BEP member and producer Will.I.Am was at an event last year where Freeland performed this song in question.

But good news for Freeland. The musician has settled with repeated song plagiarizer Will.I.Am and the Black Eyed Peas.

Freeland posted the following message on his Facebook page today, stating "Just settled w/ Black eyes Peas who ripped off Mancry. If you see me in the next wk say 'Party all the time' I'll buy you a beer. Woo hoop!"

Looks like they paid him out a large amount for stealing his music!

Congrats to Freeland.

wenn2658856pattinson.jpg

There's no question that New Moon will crush the competition this weekend at the box office!

According to stats from MovieTickets.com, 2,150 screenings of the new Twilight flick have already sold out!!!

TBH, we're not surprised!

Los Angeles and New York have sold out 200 screenings alone, with the rest of the country making up the bulk of the ticket sales for Thursday night's opening.

Do U have your tickets yet????

Playlist:

Mrs. Michael Jackson The Nanny Is Back!

Filed under: Michael Jackson

wenn2496726__opt11__opt11__opt.jpg

Oh boy!

You would think the Jackson family would have gotten someone else by now, after the car accident and the creepy yearbook entries. We guess their reality show is causing them to forget about the well-being of these kids!

It's seems that Michael Jackson's brood has been bitten by the same bug as many other youngsters. The kids were secretly brought into the L.A. Premiere screening of The Twilight Saga: New Moon. We're told it wasn't the children's legal guardian, Katherine Jackson, that joined them for the evening, but their nanny, Grace Rwaramba.

Sources are conflicting in suggesting whether Grace's presence is a good or bad thing for the children. Some suggest she is over-stepping her bounds by acting like a surrogate mother. Others insist that she is a healthy influence for the kids.

We just want to see an actual member of the Jackson household step up to raise these kids.

And not JOE!

Well, they're still together and it's been at least a few months!

With all the New Moon/R-Patz hype, our poor Zacquisha has fallen by the wayside!

But never fear, Zac's looking as zexy as ever.

Zefron landed at Heathrow Airport on Wednesday morning, working the blazer-collarless shirt look like no other.

Handsome!

Jon's Secret Contract With Kate Major!

Filed under: Oops! > Legal Matters > The Gosselins

jonwenn2638445__opt11.jpg

Super sketch!!!!

During their weekend tryst - which Jon denied took place - Kate Major got to work on more than Jon's wang! She managed to secure her future with the help of a clueless and desperate Jon Gosselin.

The douchey dad signed a secret contract written in chicken scratch, hiring Kate Major as his personal assistant and promising to pay her a portion of his profits as long as she remained mum on their relationship.

The document, dated July 28, 2009, reads:

"I, Jon Gosselin, will employ Kate Major as a personal assistant handling some but not all future accounts. She will be a sub-contractor. She will receive a percentage of accounts for payment based upon involvement."

And considering Major is supposed to give a deposition in his case with TLC, he is effed!!!!

She promised in writing to "run any media inquiries past Jon Gosselin before doing any on-air or print work," but so long contract!!!

And hello, lawsuit!!!!!

Breach of contract and fraud sound about right!

Ha!

Carrie Underwood Wasn't Really Feeling Hockey Stud

Filed under: Love Line > Carrie Underwood

carriewenn2279929.jpg

Carrie Underwood has dated some pretty delectable fellas in the last few years. So when it came time to find someone new, a member of her band suggested her current BF Mike Fisher. She was, understandably, a little picky.

She explains to Ellen DeGeneres on her show today that at first glance, Carrie wasn't too interested in Mike. She first had doubts on how a long distance relationship with a guy from Canada would ever work out.

Then, she admits she was a little put off by the fact that some of his teeth are not all his own. (But we ask you, do you know any hockey players that still have all their original teeth?)

But, she put her judgements aside and now after almost a year together, things are still going strong, despite the fact that she is denying rumors that the couple is moving in together.

She said:

"Call me old fashion, but the next guy I move in with will be my hubby. Who ever that is. I'm not saying it's going to be him."

But you're not saying that it won't be. We'll keep our fingers crossed for you!

It's Sunday Roast!

Filed under: Baby Blabber > Tom Cruise > Nicole Kidman > Keith Urban

sunday_rose_04_wenn_e.jpg

She's getting so big!

Poppa Keith Urban took his little tot, Sunday Roast, out around New York City Tuesday. And unlike Nicole Kidman's ex, Tom Cruise, he made sure his daughter was dressed for the weather with a warm jacket and cute little Ugg boots!

Wonder where Nicole and her freakish lips were?

Carmen Electra's Into Girl-On-Girl Action!

Filed under: Carmen Electra

Is anyone surprised?

Footage surfaced today of Carmen Electra getting frisky with another woman! Both chicks are scantily clad and Miss Carmen is anything but camera shy.

It's not known who filmed the footage or when it's from, but chances are Carmen's camp released it themselves. We haven't heard from her in awhile!

Watch the seksi video above!
