‘Australian Idol’ Judge Jay Dee Springbett Found Dead

Australian Idol judge Jay Dee Springbett was found dead in his hotel room in a Wooloomooloo hotel late yesterday. A New South Wales police spokesperson said the death was not suspicious but did not give anymore details regarding the cause of death.

The 36-year-old Sony music executive worked with acts such as Cassie Davis, Jessica Mauboy, Rogue Traders and Karnivool during his career. He was was romantically linked to Mauboy after they were spotted together at a Rihanna concert, but her manager David Champion said: “[It's] absolute nonsense and about as likely as Jess running off with Prince William.”

And this isn’t suspicious at all? 36 years old? RIP, Jay.

 

Jada Pinkett Smith Covers Redbook Magazine

Jada Pinkett Smith is a 39-year-old wonder woman. Between being a wife to one of the most famous men in the world–Will Smith–to mothering two of the most famous child stars in the world–Jaden and Willow– she’s had her work cut out for her. The actress, who will star in the upcoming film HawthoRNe, opened up to Redbook about raising her kids and keeping her marriage fresh.

On putting family first:

“I had to make choices. Believe me, I would still be on the road with my band, Wicked Wisdom, and making as many movies as I can a year, and doing all sorts of other things if I didn’t have the responsibility of a family. But I have children with their own talents and dreams, and I know I have to be standing next to them for that journey.”

On giving up her dream of being a rockstar:

“It was excruciating, completely excruciating. When Jaden was auditioning for The Pursuit of Happyness, my band had just gotten an offer to open for Guns N’ Roses in Europe. For me, that was unbelievable. But the choice was: I could be a rock star, or I could be on the set with my son to make sure he was healthy and happy. We all know how that story ended!”

On raising her children in Hollywood:

“Let me tell you what I fear most: Them growing up like I did, in a house with drugs in a war zone, where if I walked out my door I could be shot. Hollywood ain’t nothing compared to that! Growing up in the streets of Baltimore, or the streets of Philly where Will grew up – I’d rather have my kids here. It still makes me nervous that they’re part of something that isn’t totally real, but it’s up to Will and me to teach them what’s real and what’s not.”

The magazine ranked 16 female artists who had released solo albums between 2009 and 2011.

2. Taylor Swift
3. Rihanna
4. Britney Spears
5. Beyoncé
6. Katy Perry
7. Pink
8. Miley Cyrus

Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine & Blake Shelton Sign On For ‘The Voice’ Season 2

Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton have all signed back on for season 2 of the hit NBC singing reality show competition The Voice.

Javier Colon Is The First Winner Of The Voice

Paul Telegdy, Executive Vice President of NBC, said in a statement:

“Our fantastic coaches were integral to the tremendous success of The Voice this year and we are thrilled that they are all returning. We look forward to building season two and making The Voice an even greater experience for fans.”

Heidi Klum Enjoys Topless Tanning

‘Project Runway’ host Heidi Klum has one of the best bodies we’ve ever seen. And at 38-years-old, she stands proud, telling women they should never be ashamed to be in a bikini–or tan topless.

Heidi Klum Goes Topless For Glamour Magazine (PHOTOS)

At an event in New York City Wednesday, Klum told reporters:

“I love tanning my body and I don’t love tan lines necessarily. I don’t think too much about what other people think or if they think this woman is too old to wear just a bikini or a bikini bottom. I come from Europe so I’m not American. It is very different here than it is German or Italy. I grew up with men wearing Speedos on the beach and topless women on the beach at any age.”

Klum has been running four miles a day to keep in shape. Last week she was spotted running with Kim Kardashian who was in town to film a guest spot as a judge on Project Runway, but Klum said she and the blushing bride didn’t discuss Kim’s upcoming wedding:

“I don’t think she needs any advice. She’s so smart and sexy and she knows exactly what she wants.”

Will she be a guest on the big day?

“I don’t know,” she laughed. “We’ll see.”

Heidi, Heidi, Heidi. I wish I had an ounce of your carefree personality. I love it.

Charlize Theron Opposed To Getting Married

Oscar-winner Charlize Theron told Piers Morgan in an interview on CNN that marriage isn’t a priority for her. And despite her personal feelings on the subject, the actress has spoken out as a supporter of gay marriage.

Charlize Theron Dating Actor/Model Eric Thal

Theron, 35, told Morgan:

“I really want for myself a long-term relationship, and I have been in long-term relationships. That’s the kind of union that I want. The actual ceremony is not something that is important to me, but I see the importance for other people.”

When asked if she ever sees herself getting married, she replied:

“I don’t … I treat my relationships like marriages, I really do.” Marriage was never something that was important [to me].”

She went on to explain that after spending a decade with actor Stuart Townsend before splitting last year, she began to see the importance of marriage to those who are denied the right:

“It’s a divine right, and when government starts to tell us who can love and what is good love … I do have a problem with that. I do have a problem with the fact that our government hasn’t stepped up enough to make this federal, to make [gay marriage] legal.”

The Rumors Are True: Megan Fox & Shia LaBeouf Hooked Up On ‘Transformers’ Set

In a recent, candid interview with Details magazine, Shia LaBeouf admitted, after much speculation, to hooking up with his co-star Megan Fox on the set of Transformers.

Harrison Ford: “Shia LaBeouf Was a F***ing Idiot”

Shia said in the interview:

“Look, you’re on the set for six months, with someone who’s rooting to be attracted to you, and you’re rooting to be attracted to them. I never understood the separation of work and life in that situation. But the time I spent with Megan was our own thing, and I think you can see the chemistry onscreen.”

And what about Fox’s current husband, Brian Austin Green? Were they dating at the time? Shia responded with, ”I don’t know, man. I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know … ” he says, repeating ‘I don’t know’ 12 times, in 12 different ways before finally saying, “It was what it was.”

An on-set source also confirmed that Shia and Megan were romantically involved on set:

“Yes, Megan and Shia hooked up. It was when Megan and Brian broke up. They had a 10-month break before getting back together.”
“[Shia and Megan] bonded while filming. Believe me, that was an unhappy set. I think they were drawn together because it was so ugly working on that film.”

The truth always comes out on these situations. I wonder how Megan feels about Shia spilling the beans? I figure we’ll hear from her sooner or later.

My question is: why do these magazines release their photos online when they could make a killin’ off of people going to the store to see this crap live and in person? The end.
