Lady Gaga is a NYC native. Born and raised there, she knows her hometown well. Despite she’s able to travel the world
and show off her eccentric style to everyone, she is still a New Yorker at heart. On the September 11th anniversary ,
Gaga decided to share her love of her hometown in a documentary that features New Yorkers talking about it. Here is
what she had to say about the emotional day that happened while she was still in high school.

Lady Gaga Bares All

I mean, there’s so many stories that people don’t know,I watched the towers fall from the roof of my school, holding
all my best friends. I don’t know … just, my affinity and my love and the relationship I have with New York City —
it’s like the husband I never married…Well, this is how I get home; my leather jacket’s like my Dorothy slippers.
… That’s why I changed when we sat down. You said, ‘I want to ask you about New York,’ and I said, ‘You’d better
get my leather.’ I wrote so many songs on this new album [Born This Way] about New York City. I mean, every song on
all my albums has some relationship to New York City, but one in particular ‘Marry the Night,’ that record is about
my husband, New York.

Gaga Does Drag

Gaga got emotional during the interview. Viacom and MTV will air the interviews throughout the 11th. However, the
emotions is likely far from being over for Gaga and her fellow New Yorkers.

Oh for the love…

Despite all their marital, legal and financial woes, Real Housewives of New Jersey stars Teresa and Joe Giudice claim their marriage is stronger than ever.  And they’ll prove it!

Although many speculate that the couple, who’ve been married for over a decade, decided to renew their vows to save their struggling marriage, Teresa tells In Touch Weekly that they did for their girls.

I wanted to show my girls that marriage is really important, as is being faithful to one another.

Right, cause when I was eight-years-old there was nothing I wanted to do more than talk about fidelity and then watch my parents kiss.

According to In Touch, the Giudices spared no expense when it came to their second nuptials, even springing for a horse-drawn carriage and a $25,000 Pnina Tornai gown.

I have no words.

She may be famous for being George Clooney‘s ex-girlfriend, but Elisabetta Canalis is quickly earning her own right to fame. The Italian model and Dancing with the Stars contestant stripped down for a new anti-fur ad for PETA’s ”I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaign.

George Clooney Is Single, Dumps Elisabetta Canalis

32-year-old Canalis told reporters:

“I decided to go nude because I think that nudity always creates a big reaction. That is what is required to keep people’s attention on such a brutal practice. These poor animals are electrocuted, skinned alive, drowned, and bludgeoned just for the sake of fashion.”

She continued:

“Don’t buy fur…Even a little trim – your gloves or your bag or your jackets. You must remember that animals don’t have a voice. You must be their voice. Never be afraid to speak up.”

If my body looked like hers, I’d be naked all the time, too. Take that, George!

Teen Mom’s Amber Portwood was released from the Seasons Recovery Center in Malibu, CA late last month and, according to reports, has successfully made her way back home to Indiana.

As Bumpshack previously reported, the 21-year-old is looking to make a few changes in her life, one of which, may be relocating to another state.

After she settles in, she is going to head to the area her brother lives in in Tennessee…  She wants to check out houses in the area as she is considering leaving Indiana.

While a permanent move away form ex Gary Shirley definitely sounds like a step in the right direction, there’s no telling what the courts will do regarding custody of Portwood’s daughter, Leah, if the notorious troublemaker moves several states away.

Hopefully Amber’s really cleaned up her act this time.  She showed some real maturity by sticking out her 2 month rehab stay and I’d hate to see all that hard work go to waste.  And no, that wasn’t me be snarky – how many celebs can you name that have actually finished a full stint in rehab?

Singer/Songwriter/Batterer Chris Brown is off the hook again.  This time, it’s for parking in a handicapped parking space – 95 times.

How is this okay?  Somebody tell me exactly what Chris Brown has to do to actually get in some trouble.

According to Brown’s attorney Mark Geragos, Brown had accumulated over $15,000 in unpaid parking tickets for parking in designated handicapped spaces in his condo complex.

Apparently, the judge waved the fines because the spaces in question were actually assigned to Brown’s unit.  That still doesn’t change the fact that someone took away handicapped parking so that Chris Brown could have a cushy spot to store his Range Rover.

While the court did dismiss 95 of Chris’ parking citations, 22 still remain open.  117 parking tickets?  Are you serious?  People are going to jail for jaywalking in California and this joker has 117 parking tickets and NOTHING happens to him?

Come on Karma – time to kick it into high gear.  Just to be clear, I don’t want anything bad to happen to Chris Brown, I just want him to stop making millions upon millions of dollars for being a dirt bag.  That is all.

This may be the first, last and only time I’ll ever say this, so listen up people.  Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino is right!   Excuse me while I got wash my mouth out with soap.

Last month, Abercrombie & Fitch very publicly announced that they would pay Sitch and the rest of the Jersey Shore cast a large sum to stop donning their duds on national television, but according to a recent cease and desist letter penned by Sorrentino’s legal team, the payoff never came.

And now he’s pissed.  Look out!  He might slam his head into a wall… again.

According to reports, Mike’s all done playing nice and has requested that any t-shirts making reference to “The Situation” be pulled from A&F shelves.  What’s more, he wants all the profits made from the shirts, claiming that his company, MPS Productions owns the rights to all items bearing his name.

Hey, he may be a total slimeball, but the guy’s got a point.  Plus, Abercrombie & Fitch is terrible.  Maybe this will knock them and their shirtless models down a peg or two.

After all legal drama, all the court dates, parole violations and failed drug tests, Teen Mom’s Jenelle Evans is officially a free woman.  At least for now anyway.

According to TMZ, after kicking the living crap out of Britany Truett earlier this year, the troubled reality star was charged with “simple affray — and today she was sentenced to 30 days suspended jail time and 12 months probation.”  So essentially, if Jelley can keep her nose out of trouble for the next year, she has nothing to worry about.

I’m taking bets on the number of days until Ms. Baby Mama Drama is back behind bars.  Any takers?

Jenelle will have to pay a $100 fine, perform 24 hours of community service and stay far, far away from any of the people who were involved in the infamous altercation.  Truett received the same sentencing.

Dustin Sullivan, Evans’ attorney spoke out regarding the sentencing, claiming that his client was unjustly labeled as the “instigator” in the case.

It came out that it wasn’t Janelle being the aggressor and Ms. Truett as the victim. It was presented as a bad decision on everybody’s part and I don’t think there was a single victim in the case.

Ah, but that’s where you’re wrong Dustin old boy.  There was a victim.  His name is Jace.

Earlier this week, X-Factor judge Simon Cowell told Howard Stern on his Sirius XM Radio show that he had once been set up on a date with Denise Richards. He was shocked when he showed up to the date to see the actress eight months pregnant. Now, Denise has spoken up and denied there ever was a date.

Simon Cowell Went On “Bizarre” Blind Date With Denise Richards

Charlie Sheen‘s ex-wife said she had no idea the meeting between she and Cowell was supposed to be romantic. ”I was at a group dinner, eight months pregnant,” she wrote on her Twitter. “Not sure how that’s considered a date! If I was being set up, I didn’t know it!”

Denise went on to admit that if she had known Cowell was available, she would’ve been interested. ”I wish I knew that it was a date!” she said. ”He’s a hot piece of ass!”

Oh, rats! What a crazy reality show that would’ve made!

Although authorities ruled the death of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Russell Armstrong as a suicide, his family members are insisting that he was the victim of foul play.

BREAKING NEWS — RHOBH star Russell Armstrong Commits Suicide

Armstrong was found with an electrical cord tied to an exposed beam in a private L.A. home Aug. 15. But his mother, John Ann Hotchkiss, told reporters her son was never suicidal. “We want a murder investigation. We will do whatever is necessary to proceed,” she said.

Hotchkiss did admit that her son was ”feeling a little overwhelmed because of finances,” but stuck to her story that she never suspected he would take his own life. ”Russell was personable and warm and had a giving heart more than anyone I have ever known,” she said. “He cared about people, and loved his children almost to a fault. Knowing him as a person and how he valued life, I don’t think he would do this,” she said.

Russell Armstrong’s Mother Speaks Out on Son’s Suicide

“The general consensus of everyone we know who loved and knew Russell,” she explained, is that “he was murdered and there was a set up.”

She didn’t elaborate on who she believed could have killed her son, but did go on to say: “No one is accusing Bravo. We think someone conspired to have him murdered and it is open as to who did it.”

‘Real Housewives ‘ To Air Special On Russell Armstrong’s Death

Hotchkiss may not think Bravo had anything to do with Armstrong’s death, but she was put off by the season premiere of the show, which aired Monday. ”[It] was a total slap in the face,” she said. “It just showed how superficial and shallow [Bravo] is…they don’t care about anyone. They just care about ratings.”

I feel horrible for this woman and what her family is going through. But while they’re grieving, it seems best that they stay out of the media. Especially if they feel as strongly as they do about how their family member was portrayed.

When Jersey Shore’s Pauly D offered to DJ Kim Kardashian’s Fashion Night Out party at DASH as a wedding gift, I don’t think he knew what he was getting himself into!

According to reports, police had to shut down the DASH NYC location, when fans showed up in droves to catch a glimpse of Kim K and Pauly D in action.  Or so they thought…

A source inside the store claims that NYPD had “to step in when the crowd of thousands tried to jump the barricades to get to Pauly as he left the store.”

Oh, so they were really there for Mr. DelVecchio.  How’s your pride Kimmy?

Apparently, all employees, including the Kardashian sisters themselves, were told to leave the store and turn the lights off as they left.

Major buzzkill reporting for duty!

After new photos of Lindsay Lohan‘s younger sister Ali hit the internet, speculation that the 17-year-old had undergone plastic surgery began. Now, Ali’s rep is denying rumors that the teenager, who was recently signed to a modeling contract, went under the knife.

Lindsay Lohan Dropping Last Name

In a statement, Steve Honig said:

“Aliana has never had any type of plastic surgery in her life, nor has she ever considered it.”

“Her success as a model lies with her natural looks and she has no interest in changing that. During the past two years, she has gone through a normal teenage growth spurt that has made her taller and slimmer.”

Not only does she look like she’s had her lips blown up, her cheeks look much more defined than before. But her rep still claims that it’s all due to teenage growth:

Lohan’s growth “has also slightly changed the composure of her face, all of which is typical of what happens to kids in their mid to late teens,” explains Honig. “It’s what most people refer to as the awkward stage. Ali is growing up; that’s all.”

Lindsay Lohan Is “Completely Over” Clubbing

She looks unnatural! Surely there’s more to this…

Check out this picture over at PEOPLE that shows off her changed face even more.
