Former cheerleader Kelli Finglass, who currently is the Dallas Cheerleaders director, is looking for girls for her new 2009-2010 Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders squad. The girls have to have a nice body, know how to dance but they must be smart too because they will have to pass a personal interview and a written test of more than 80 questions.

Kelli is considered the mastermind behind the Cowboys cheerleaders’ success. Kelli was a member of the cheerleader squad from 1984 to 1989. After retiring she became an assistant director to the cheerleaders and was finally promoted to director of the cheerleaders in 1991.

Singer/actress Beyonce Knowles graces the cover of the latest issue of Self Magazine (June 2009) and shares some of her secrets for a sexy attitude. It’s all about believing in yourself!

Check out Beyonce’s new music video “Ego” out of the album “I Am… Sasha Fierce”. Here are some highlights from Beyonce’s Self Magazine interview:

On feeling confident about her body: “Ever since I was a little girl, my legs have been curvy and pretty muscular, but my arms have always been really skinny. They were so weak, I could barely hold a mic. But now I can do push-ups! Ten at a time! It’s about self-esteem. It’s in the hips. Lean back, stretch your neck, keep your shoulders low, point your toes and cross one foot in front of the other.”

On keeping her curvylicious body in shape: “I’m not one of those people who doesn’t have to work at it. I can’t eat what I want, and I can’t not go to the gym. There are no quick, easy secrets. The truth is, it’s a lot of sacrifice. It’s more about your mental strength than physical strength. You have to push yourself. It doesn’t matter what trainer you have. And it doesn’t matter what program you’re on. You have to be healthy and make the right choices.”

Miss California Carrie Prejean, who has become famous for her fervid anti-gay marriage statements and some “non-existent” topless photos that were all over the net (photos here), opened a big can of worms. Her mother Francine Coppola was just outted by her lesbian lover Valerie Vetrano.

Valerie Vetrano tells Star exclusively, “Yes, Francine and I dated.”

However, the affair was doomed, says a source. “Francine explained how she was a Christian and that her loved ones would never accept her if she were gay,” the friend says. When Valerie asked her what would happen if she told her daughter Carrie about the two of them, Francine responded, “Carrie would never believe it!”

Adds the friend, “Valerie feels that if Francine had just been open about her sexuality with her family, Carrie would have a better understanding of what gay people have to go through. They just want equal rights.”

Francine kept the steamy lesbian affair secret from her family and only recently broke up with Valerie. The two have reportedly been dating since Carrie’s parents, Francine and Wil Prejean, divorce back in 1996. The divorce papers include gay allegations from both parts! People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones!

It seems like Adam Lambert doesn’t get any love from American Idol season three runner-up Clay Aiken! You would think Clay, who came out of the closet and knows exactly how hard it is to be a gay ‘Idol’, would be a bit more compassionate…

In a recent blog post titled “Silence broken”, Clay says Adam was awful, frightening and made his ears bleed. Clay, that is not a nice thing to say about a fellow ‘Idol’!!

Clay wrote: “Now that it’s all over, and for the record…. I couldn’t be happier about the way AI ended this year. I only turn the show on once a season, and only to see what the set looks like each year. This year, I happened to turn it during the minute that Adam Lambert was singing ‘Ring of Fire’ and, at that moment, thought my ears would bleed. Contrived, awful, and slightly frightening!”

“I wasn’t really a fan and found myself surprised whenever folks told me that they liked him. Granted, I never saw another performance (and many folks who I trust said that he was great) but I can’t imagine I would have enjoyed it. Just not my cup of tea at all.”

“I never saw Kris sing on the show, but whether he was good or not is really relative. It’s usually a matter of taste, right? But Idol is not always a matter of musical taste only. It’s about the person you like. From what little I saw, Kris seemed likable. (That’s not to say that Adam isn’t just as likable as anyone.. maybe more so… I don’t know).”

If you don’t have something nice to say just shut up! I bet Clay is totally jealous “American Idol” finally has a cute gay guy with some talent on the show! It seems like Clay might also be bitter for being denied a duet with the same frightening Adam Lambert.

Many pundits were surprised with the American Idol results on Wednesday when it was announced that Kris Allen had defeated Adam Lambert to take home the title. Well, it is starting to be leaked out that the results weren’t really that close and that Kris beat Adam rather handily.

A top FOX source told Access Hollywood that the vote left Kris as the clear winner by a large margin.

Allen’s win came as no surprise to me, and I actually predicted it several days before, but I am surprised he won by a large margin.  Both contestants will be remembered for their amazing vocals and talent.  Lambert and Allen are both going to have very successful careers and make a lot of money.

I am sure Adam’s pride was hurt by not winning.  He is obviously a very competitive person, but he now is on the verge dominating a music industry that has become very weak in recent years.
