Gene Simmons is OFFICIALLY MARRIED!


Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed have OFFICIALLY tied the knot!

After 28 years together, the KISS bassist, 62, married his longtime girlfriend in an private ceremony outside on the crystal lawn at the Beverly Hills hotel on Saturday. The couple's guests cheered when Simmons said "I do" to his partner.

Tweed, 54, walked down the aisle in an ivory Priscilla of Boston gown – one of three dresses she chose for the big occasion – and carried a bouquet of ivory garden roses.

The couple exchanged vows they wrote themselves in front of 400 guests including Hugh Hefner, Bill Maher and KISS member Paul Stanley.

Also in attendance were the couple's two children Nick, 22, and Sophie, 19, who was the maid of honor.

And their planned first dance is quite fitting for a couple who have been together for almost three decades: "At Last" by Etta James, to be performed by their daughter Sophie.

Russell Brand has come across another country that DOESN'T want him -- he's been denied entry to Canada.

Brand first tweeted, possibly while still flying, "HELP! I'm gonna be late for Casino Rama show unless someone can force Canadian customs officials to let us land in Orillia!"

Brand was deported from Japan back in May while trying to visit with his wife, Katy Perry.

Gene Simmons On Marriage: I'll Do My Best To Be Faithful


After 28 years together, rock legend Gene Simmons and partner Shannon Tweed will finally say their “I dos” today, but if fans of “Gene Simmons Family Jewels” think that means the on-screen drama is over for the couple, think again.

“He doesn’t promise to be faithful to me," Tweed complained. “I will do my best,” was all that Simmons had to say about that. But Simmons showed his softer side in a recent interview with “Entertainment Tonight.”

“It is time for me to grow up,” he admitted. “I’m 62. I’ve been doing a lot of wacky stuff for an awfully long time — the band, the thing, traveling around the world and all that. There’s nobody I’ve ever loved. There’s nobody I’ve ever said ‘I love you’ to. I even find it difficult to say ‘I love you’ to my mother, but I love Shannon with all my heart and all my soul and always will.”

The special wedding edition of “Gene Simmons Family Jewels” starts on Oct. 4 at 9 p.m. ET on A&E.

Tara Reid Returning To American Pie Franchise For Much Less Money Than Co-Stars


Tara Reid (pictured above in green) has been dissed by the only movie that gave her any credibility to begin with!

The troubled actress is making her way back to the American Pie franchise in the upcoming flick American Reunion.... but for the lowest salary of any of the returning cast members....and we mean LOW!

The franchise is bringing back the whole cast from the 1999 original for the first theatrically released Pie film since 2003.

Jason Biggs and Sean William Scott will take-in $5 million each, plus part of the movie's profits, according to The Hollywood Reporter, while How I Met Your Mother star Alyson Hannigan and Eugene Levy will make $3 million.

Tara, on the other hand, is only getting $250,000.

What a low blow!

Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher SPLIT UP Temporarily On Twitter!


Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher's rocky marriage is playing out on Twitter.

For a while, Moore stopped following the "Two and a Half Men" star -- and only recently began to “follow” him again, sources have said.

In 2009, Ashton became the first person on Twitter to reach one million followers -- a feat he reached with a “follow” from Moore.

Moore must have at some point unfollowed Kutcher, saying, "So why does Ashton’s Twitter handle appear as one of the 20 most recent people Demi’s started following? At some point Demi must have “unfollowed” Ashton and is now following him again."

Gisele's Controversial Underwear Ad Campaign BANNED By Brazilian Government


Gisele Bündchen is in TROUBLE -- her native Brazil is NOT amused over her sexy new lingerie commercial!

The world's highest paid supermodel has recently been scolded by government officials. They pulled the plug on her "naturally beautiful" underwear commercial for the brand Hope because they feel it's too for provocative for TV.

In the commercial, Bündchen parades around in lingerie while trying to seduce an angry on-screen hubby who's mad at her for crashing his car, maxing out his credit card and inviting her mom to stay with them.

The voiceover exclaims: "You're a Brazilian woman -- use your charm" and it reportedly caused several Brazilian viewers to complain. "The campaign promotes the misguided stereotype of a woman as a sexual object of her husband and ignores the major advances we have achieved in deconstructing sexist practices and thinking," Brazil's secretariat said in a statement to The Guardian.

CONRAD MURRAY TRIAL: Murray Lied To Paramedics, ER Doc About Drugs In Jackson's System


Day four of Conrad Murray's manslaughter trial has wrapped up.

Friday's witnesses included Bob Johnson of Nonin Medical Equipment, Murray's former patient Robert Russell, paramedic/firefighter Richard Senneff, paramedic/firefighter Martin Blount and Jackson's attending ER Doctor Richelle Cooper.

The most revealing testimony today included:
  • Johnson said the device used to monitor Jackson was a pulse oximeter, but Murray used the wrong one and it had no alarm in case anything went wrong.
  • The first paramedic, Senneff, claimed if Murray had called 911 right away instead of after a 20-minute delay, there was a chance that they could have restarted Jackson's heart and saved his life.
  • Senneff also revealed that Murray claimed Jackson wasn't on any medication, only later saying he gave the King of Pop the sedative Lorazepam; Propofol was never mentioned by Murray to the paramedics or the attending ER doctor.
  • Despite the fact that Jackson was D.O.A., the paramedics tried to revive him for 47 minutes as Murray wouldn't let them call a time of death.
  • The second paramedic, Blount, claims he spotted Murray grabbing Lidocaine bottles and putting them in a bag before Jackson was wheeled out.
  • The attending ER doc Cooper revealed that Murray told her Jackson was "dehydrated" after extended rehearsals and that the only drugs Michael took were Flomax and Valium.
All accounts point to Murray trying to clean up bottles or remove evidence immediately after Jackson died.

Kelsey Grammer and Camille Grammer Head to Court

 
Kelsey Grammer had a winning court day with Camille Grammer for the custody of their kids -- but it comes not only with strings attached, but the possibility of an explosion of tempers.

Kelsey and Camille were in family court this morning -- and this was the first time they've come face-to-face since they separated. The two were at an impasse, because Kelsey wanted to take the former couple's two children for 6 days, beginning Monday, while he's in L.A.

We're told Camille, who is represented by Neal Hersh and Judy Bogen, did NOT want Kelsey to take the kids because Kelsey would not agree to take them to their regularly scheduled activities, which includes dance, sports and therapy. 

Kelsey's lawyer, Lance Spiegel was by his side during the hearing. The judge allowed Kelsey to take the kids for the 6 days, but under the ruling he must also take them to ALL of their scheduled activities.

People vs. Dr. Conrad Murray Paramedic Testifies We Could Have Saved Michael Jackson

 

One of the first paramedics who rushed to save Michael Jackson's life at 100 N. Carolwood Drive testified today and said -- if Murray would have called 911 immediately, Michael Jackson's life might have been saved.

Richard Senneff said Murray told him he called 911 the second he realized MJ was in distress, when in fact there was a 20 minute delay.

Senneff said if Murray called earlier there was a good chance EMT's could have restarted Michael's heart.

Senneff mentioned that when he hooked up the EKG machine onto MJ, there was a flatlined.

* Senneff said 911 call came in at 12:22 pm. He arrived at MJ's house 4 minutes later.
* When he walked into the room, he saw Murray, MJ and the bodyguard.
* Senneff said Michael was wearing PJs and seemed underweight.
* MJ was being moved to the floor as Senneff walked in. He said Murray was "frantic."
* He noticed an IV stand with an IV bag hanging on it.
* He asked Murray what the patient's underlying health condition was three times before Murray said there was none.
* He said that didn't make any sense... there was an IV stand in the room and other equipment.
* When he asked what medications he was taking, Murray lied to saying he hadn't taken anything... then said he did give him a little Lorazepam.
* At that point the other paramedic, Martin Blount, successfully performed an intubation on MJ.
* Senneff says there were too many inconsistencies with Murray's account... MJ was too cold to the touch his eyes were dialated and the EKG showed a flatline.
* After administering another round of starter drugs, there was still no change in MJ's condition.
*  Right as they were about to give up, Dr. Murray said he felt a pulse in the right side of MJ's groin.
* But when Senneff looked at the monitor all he saw was movement consistent with CPR.
* Senneff ordered everyone to stop CPR to see if there was in fact a pulse and the monitor, again, showed a flatline.
* He then checked again to see if there was a pulse. There was none.
* Sugar levels in the blood also showed no change in MJ's condition.

Ashton Kutcher In Trouble For Self-Promotion On Two And A Half Men

 CLICK PICTURE TO ENLARGE

Ashton Kutcher is under fire from CBS after promoting social media companies Foursquare, Flipboard, Hipmunk, GroupMe and Chegg on Monday night's episode of Two And A Half Men.

The actor/social media maven holds investment stakes in all five companies. On Monday, he put stickers for the brands on character Walden Schmidt's laptop, and CBS is upset because the network received no compensation for the product placement.

"This was not part of any advertising transaction with CBS," a network rep said. "Our policy is to disclose such financial interests in a credit at the end of the broadcast."

The Hollywood Reporter says, the network has decided not to take any action against Kutcher -- though it will blur the stickers from future episodes. This marks more bad news for Ashton, who is in the middle of a tabloid tornado this week as rumors are swirling that he's been CHEATING on wife Demi Moore.

CONRAD MURRAY TRIAL: Bodyguards Refused To Let Murray Back In Jackson's Home To Retrieve Items


Faheem Muhammad has taken the stand in Murray's trial. He was chief of Michael Jackson's security for about 10 months prior to Jackson's death. Muhammad recalls that after Jackson's body was found in the room, his daughter Paris was "on the ground, balled up crying." He added that MJ's son Prince "was shocked and slowly crying."

Earlier, Michal Jackson's former personal assistant, Michael Amir Williams, testified that when Michael Jackson died, Dr. Conrad Murray never told him to call 911, and after Jackson was pronounced dead, Murray told Williams he needed to go to Jackson's home to remove a "cream."

After these revelations, Muhammad went on to say that he heard Murray ask if anyone knew CPR, and bodyguard Alberto Alvarez went over to help the physician. After Jackson was pronounced dead, Williams told Muhammad of Murray's request to retrieve the cream, but they both decided not to let the doctor back in Jackson's home.

CONRAD MURRAY TRIAL: Day Two Begins


Conrad Murray's involuntary manslaughter trial began its second day at 8:45 a.m. PST in Los Angeles.

Here's a quick catch-up from Monday:
  • "This Is It" director Kenny Ortega testified that he was "shocked" by Conrad Murray's treatment of Michael Jackson -- that Murray pushed for Jackson to rehearse while Ortega felt he needed to rest.
  • The defense argues that Jackson gave himself Propofol in secret and that killed him.
  • The prosecution argues that Murray was "grossly negligent" in his care for Jackson.
  • Paul Gongaware, co-CEO of AEG Live Concerts West, testified that Jackson asked if he could bring Dr. Conrad Murray on tour as his personal physician.
Tuesday morning, Gongaware's testimony continued. At 9:15 a.m., Kathy Jorrie was called to the stand. Jorrie is the lawyer who drafted a contract (at the request of AEG Live) for Murray to go on tour with Jackson as his personal physician.
  • Jorrie says Murray requested a CPR machine for Jackson for his tour, which she found odd.
  • She says: “He [Murray] volunteered … that Michael Jackson was ‘perfectly healthy, [in] excellent condition,’” including saying so the day before Jackson died.
  • She said the contract was not signed by all parties -- no payment was made to Murray by AEG.

Star is reporting that Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher are gearing up for a divorce battle worth $290 million.

Two And A Half Men Producer Chuck Lorre Hints That He's Writing a Tell-All Book


Chuck Lorre addressed Charlie Sheen's meltdown (and firing from Two And A Half Men) earlier this year with "vanity cards" -- messages that Chuck posted on screen at the end of the show's episodes.

Now, he's at it AGAIN! It was officially announced Monday that Sheen and Warner Bros. had settled Sheen's lawsuit against the production company. Rumor has it Sheen will get $100 million in syndication profits over the next decade, with an immediate $25 million payout.

Sounds like the news didn't make Lorre too happy. After Monday night's episode of the CBS show, now starring Ashton Kutcher, another ominous vanity card appeared:
    "Sometime last year I realized I had become the unwilling contestant in a reality show. I didn’t understand the rules, wasn’t sure if there even were any, and pretty much hated every second of it. ... Somewhere along the way, something inside me died. ... please, let’s all move on. There’s just one problem. That thing inside me that died? It walks at night. It’s angry. It’s hungry. And worst of all…it’s writing a tell-all book."
In recent months, rumors have swirled that Sheen was shopping his own tell-all book -- but it hasn't been officially announced. We can guess Charlie will have something written soon.

CONRAD MURRAY TRIAL: Defense Says Michael Jackson Could NOT Have Died From Murray's Propofol Dose


On the first day of Conrad Murray's trial, opening statements are largely being devoted to talk of Propofol.
Defense attorney Ed Chernoff continued his opening statement after the court recessed for lunch, and said that the amount of Propofol is key.

"The amounts Dr. Murray gave were not capable of causing that death," Chernoff said.

-Chernoff also fought the prosecution's accusations of negligence and abandonment in its opening statement, saying, that the Propofol Murray gave Michael Jackson would have dissipated in his body by the time Murray left Jackson's side to use the restroom.

-Murray, the defense says, gave Jackson Propofol after Jackson requested it so that he could sleep before a rehearsal. Then, said Chernoff, Murray stayed by Jackson's side to monitor him until he "felt comfortable." He then used the restroom.

-"In 10 minutes, no matter how much [Propofol] you give in an injection, there’s nothing left," Chernoff said. "When we talk about ‘abandonment’ in this case, that’s important to understand.”

He closed his opening statement with:
    "This is an emotional case. We all have a vested interest in Michael Jackson. … The whole thing is tragic, but the evidence is not going to show that Dr. Murray did it. … Dr. Murray is an imperfect man, like all of us … But in this criminal court, we believe he is not guilty."

People vs. Dr. Conrad Murray Opening Statements


Prosecutor David Walgren delivered a powerful opening statement, using a graphic of what appears to be Michael Jackson's body on a gurney.

Below is what was said in the opening statement:

* Michael Jackson trusted his life to the medical skills of Dr. Murray and it was "misplaced trust"
* The cause of death was an overdose of Propofol, administered by Dr. Murray
* We will prove Conrad Murray repeatedly acted with gross negligence and incompetence
* Walgren explained that Murray would obtain $150,000 a month, not the $5 million Murray demanded for the duration of the "This is It" tour.
* Murray made arrangements with a pharmacy to purchase very large quantities of Propofol on a regular basis
* Murray lied to the pharmacist by saying he had a clinic in Santa Monica when he did not.
* On May 10, 2009, Murray made a voice recording on his iPhone ... the recording documents MJ highly under the influence of "unknown agents" with Murray sitting there. It shows Murray knew Michael's state and what he was doing to the singer
* In the weeks before MJ died, he was cold, shivering, rambling but Murray kept giving him Propofol, and Kenny Ortega will testify MJ was clearly not well
* A meeting was held at Michael's house on May 20, 2009,  MJ died, with Kenny Ortega, Murray, MJ and others.  Murray scolded Ortega for expressing concerns about his health, saying he was the doctor, adding, Michael is physically and emotionally fine.  I am the doctor."
* On the day MJ died, at 1 AM, MJ came hone from rehearsal and Murray spent the night at the house -- as he did every night for the prior 2 1/2 months -- for the purpose of putting him to sleep with Propofol. 
* Walgren acknowledged that Michael died in his bed -- that he was clinically dead when paramedics arrived.
* Murray was texting and making phone calls while he sat by MJ.  He made 8 phone calls, the last at 11:51 to a girlfriend, and that's when Murray realized there was an emergency.
* Murray calls bodyguard Alberto Alverez and says Michael Jackson had a "bad reaction."
* Murray instructs Alverez to essentially hide the evidence in a blue bag ... putting, among other things, the Propofol bottle that was hanging on the IV stand -- Walgren is implying that's the bottle that had the fatal dose
* 911 was called at 12:20.  And, Walgren says, when paramedics arrived, MJ was dead
* Murray never told the EMTs he gave MJ Propofol, even though they asked what drugs Murray had administered
* Paramedics pronounced MJ dead, but Murray insisted he be transported to UCLA
* UCLA doctors asked Murray what drugs had he given MJ, but Murray never mentioned Propofol
* Two days after MJ's death, Murray met with LAPD detectives, and disclosed he was giving MJ nightly doses of Propofol everyday for more than 2 months to put him to sleep.  This is the first time Murray fessed up.

 CLICK PICTURE TO ENLARGE

SELLER: Sharon Stone
LOCATION: Beverly Hills, CA
PRICE: $8,995,000
SIZE: 7 bedrooms and 8.5 bathrooms (total)

Sharon Stone is having a tough time selling a grand 5 acre compound in Beverly Hills. The home was built in 1991, and Stone purchased it in 2006, when she reportedly paid nearly $11,000,000. Here’s the kicker – she never actually ever moved into the property. As you’ll see in the photos above, it wasn’t exactly fully furnished. The home has been on and off the market since 2009, and is now listed for $8,995,000, a full $2,000,000 less than Stone’s purchase price.

The property spans 4.85 hillside acres, offers garage parking for upwards of 14 cars, and includes 5 bedrooms in the main house and another 2 in a detached guest house. Listing information shows there are a total of 8.5 bathrooms. In addition to guest quarters the guest house also contains a state-of-the-art media room and gym. The rambling grounds and outdoor entertainment areas include a side patio with built-in barbecue station, resort style-swimming pool and spa, lighted tennis court with viewing pavilion, and meditation garden and meandering pathways with bridges and waterfalls.

The master suite includes a fireplace, a large terrace with serene views, dual baths, walk-in dressing rooms. You’ll find three additional bedroom suites upstairs, and one additional bedroom suite downstairs. A separate guest house includes a state-of-the-art media room, gym and two additional bedrooms.

Lady Gaga MEETS With President Obama


On Sunday night, Lady Gaga fulfilled her promise from last week; she met with President Obama.

Gaga paid the $35,800 fee that was required to attend an intimate Silicon Valley fundraiser for Obama held Sunday night at the home of Facebook's Chief Operating Officer, Sheryl Sandberg.

The pop star wore a black, sleeveless lace gown with a veil, high heels and a blonde boufant. Whether the two discussed Gaga's anti-bullying campaign, which she promised to meet with the President over, is still unclear. The President did not address Gaga in his opening remarks at the event.

Sharon Stone Calls 911 There Might Be an INTRUDER in My Home


Police went to Sharon Stone's L.A. mansion early this morning, after the actress called 911. She was concerned that someone may have broken into her home -- good news is, it was a false alarm.

Stone personally called authorities around 2:00 AM when she heard a noise in the house -- so she didn't take any chances and called police.

Once cops responded to the house, we're told officers checked out the situation and determined there was no sign of a break-in.

Kate Walsh SELLING Her Home in Los Angeles

CLICK PICTURE TO ENLARGE

SELLER: Kate Walsh
LOCATION: Los Angeles, CA
PRICE: $3,995,000
SIZE: 5,940 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms
 
Kate Walsh -- the ginger haired actress–who recently roasted Charlie Sheen -- first pushed the property on the open market in May 2010 with an asking price of $4,295,000. Five months later the property was de-listed. Since then Walsh has done some redecorating–particularly in the formal dining room where she replaced a hulking square table with an oval one that matches the shape of the plaster ceiling detail–and this week she slid the sophisticated crib property back on the market with an asking price of $3,995,000.

Listing information shows a total of 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms in the main house. The ballroom-sized master suite as gleaming wood floors, lots of windows, a fireplace, sitting area and high-glam sky-lit bathroom with freestanding soaking tub, double sinks and mirrored vanity table. Miz Walsh converted one of the four bedrooms, as per listing information, into a celebrity-style walk-in closet/dressing room lined with shoe racks and glass-doored accessory cabinets.

A single-story 3-room detached structure with arched colonnade and updated bathroom expands the living space and is currently configured as two offices plus a sky-lit fitness studio with vaulted ceiling, mirrored walls, and full complement of matching Pilates equipment, much of which bears a striking resemblance to the sort of contraptions one might find in a fetish club.

This is a beautiful property to own!
