Justin Bieber wants everyone to STFU about his style, or lack thereof!

In case you were in a turkey coma or standing in ungodly long lines for those doorbuster deals on Friday, the pop phenom received the distinct honor of a Diamond Jubilee medal from Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper wearing overalls.

Yes, overalls.

Not surprisingly, the Beauty And A Beat singer was criticized

Don't poke the tiger in Nicolas Cage!

The Ghost Rider star finally settled his lawsuit with the Daily Mail, and it seems he really hit them with his penance!

After the outlet accused the actor of being late on his taxes, Nic Peggy Sued for defamation.

The settlement apparently includes a retraction, an apology, AND an undisclosed sum for damages!

Nic's lawyer Paul Tweed issued a statement on behalf of his client. He said:

Supermodel Natalia Vodianova is on the defensive after the media misconstrued her "it's better to be skinny than fat" comment she made last weekend.

As most celebrities tend to do, the Russian beauty posted an explanation on Facebook and she had A LOT to say.

Natalia writes:

I guess the reaction of the press is expected to be negative when I said it's better to be skinny then to be fat at the Vogue Festival this past weekend. However on the background of arriving from China where most people leave under the poverty line and have to share food and watch how much they eat to survive and on the background of how I grew up where sometimes I had to skip meals so there would be food for my little disabled sister and that feeling of missing bread so much some days because on some days we had no money to buy any (reason I had ulcers as little girl was constant irregular eating) could give an explanation why I felt moved to give another prospective on this issue.

But wait, there's more! Read Miz Vodianova's entire post…AFTER THE JUMP!

Russell Brand is not happy that the tabloids are not happy with him.

During a recent stand up comedy gig in London he joked about the upcoming Summer Olympic games that the city is set to host, saying:

"I don't give a f–k about the Olympics. It's boring Blue Peter sport and a waste of taxpayers' money. At least the Paralympics have some kind of novelty value or something."

Obviously, nobody likes to be the brunt of a joke, so a few Paralympians spoke up.

The Daily Mail reported 21-year-old Natasha Baker called Brand's comments "patronizing and upsetting", while two-time gold medalist, David Weir, suggested, "Brand obviously hasn't met any Paralympians."

Russell, on the other hand, thinks the Daily Mail and U.K. tabloid The People took his comment way to seriously.

In response, he has posted a pic of himself and another Paralympian while holding the tabloids in question, tweeting:

"Congratulations Chris and Aussie WC rugby team. Daily Mail/People stop being silly."

The reality of the situation is that sometimes words hurt. Comedy walks a thin line between offensive and funny.

While we're sure Russell was only looking for a laugh, he shouldn't be surprised that people in the group he was poking fun of didn't think the joke was worth laughing at. He's not the first comedian to offend a particular group of people with insensitive material and he won't be the last.

Do U agree with Russell that the tabloids are making a big deal over nothing or was his insensitivity toward the disabled community worth writing about?

Wowsa!!

Lily Allen has launched an attack against a journalist who claimed that the singer was planning a New Year's wedding to overcome the recent loss of her baby.

The article, which can be seen here, alleges that "[Lily and Sam Cooper] want to be together after what they’ve gone through and see becoming man and wife as the light at the end of the tunnel."

But Lily is firing back, calling bullshiz on the author.

The singer took to her Twitter with an angry rant, saying:

Katie Nicholl I THINK you're a cunt, leave me out of your shitty column, you know nothing about the intimate details of my life.

Theres a time and a place for your musings where I'm concerned, and it's not now.

According to Lily's Twitter, "Kati[e] Nichol[l] has been in touch and has threatened to consult her lawyer," which prompted the singer to "amend" her tweet.

Dayum, gurl!! Nobody will dare mess with you now!!

We guess sequels RARELY work, even when it's the theater!!

The sequel to the super successful musical Phantom of the Opera, called Love Never Dies, premiered last night in London's West End, and the critics are not being kind!!!

Ben Brantley, of the New York Times, called it a "poor sap of a show (which) feels as eager to be walloped as a clown in a carnival dunking booth. If you don't know the first Phantom, you will be very confused; if you do know the first Phantom, you will also be very confused."

Benedict Nightingale, of The Times, wrote:

"Where's the menace, the horror, the psychological darkness?"

However, if you can shut your brain off and just listen, some critics thought that Webber has done good on the music!!

Quentin Letts, of the Daily Mail, said:

"But if it is a miss, it is … a noble miss, noble because Lloyd Webber's increasingly operatic music tries to lift us to a higher plane."

And from the Telegraph, Charles Spencer says the tunes are "blessed with superbly haunting melodies and a yearning romanticism that sent shivers racing down my spine."

Hmmm.

We didn't expect too much from the plot. Once we heard there were three writers helping Webber write the story - which BIZARRELY puts the Phantom haunting the Coney Island fairgrounds ten years after the original - we figured the show's only potential saving grace would be the music!!

What do U think?? Will U go see Love Never Dies??
