Justin Bieber Cruises Around Town In His 21st Birthday Present: A Custom Vintage Car
Justin Bieber turns 21 tomorrow, but he's already gotten quite a few fancy gifts -- like this custom 1965 Lincoln Continental.
Bieber's pals/Shots business partners John and Sammy Shahidi reportedly surprised the star with the sweet vintage whip at his music studio on Thursday, and later in the evening Biebs was seen cruising up and down the Sunset Strip in the tricked-out car, which has a leopard interior, among other classy features.
Sources are reporting that the Shahidi brothers purchased the car for $20,000 and then had a local auto body shop work on it for several months.

Kelly Osbourne Quits 'Fashion Police'
Kelly Osbourne has quit "Fashion Police".
Multiple sources connected with the show say, producers and Kelly were at odds even before the Giuliana Rancic showdown, where Kelly threatened to quit unless Giuliana apologized over her comments about Zendaya on the red carpet at the Oscars.
We're told the tension started over the first episode the cast taped without Joan Rivers. Kelly was unhappy with the way the show was being produced. Producers, we're told, were "up to here" with Kelly so the handwriting was on the wall.
Sources say, Kelly walked away Friday.
Leonard Nimoy, Actor, Director, and 'Star Trek' Icon, Dies At 83
Leonard Nimoy, who famously played Mr. Spock, died at home Friday morning in Bel-Air... after battling chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
The "Star Trek" star announced last year that he was battling the disease and attributed it to years and years of smoking. He had given up the habit 30 years ago.
Nimoy checked into UCLA Medical Center last week for intense chest pains -- but was eventually released.
Nimoy started playing Mr. Spock when the TV show debuted in 1966 ... and is the only actor to appear in every episode of that original series. He continued in the Spock role through most of the movies -- including the most recent reboot in 2013.

Harrison Ford to Return in 'Blade Runner' Sequel, Directed by Denis Villeneuve
Prisoners director Denis Villeneuve is in negotiations to direct Harrison Ford in the Blade Runner sequel for Alcon Entertainment.
The announcement was made on Thursday.
Written by Hampton Fancher and Michael Green, the Blade Runner sequel will take place several decades after the 1982 original.
Ford recently said the script was the “best thing he’s ever read.” He will reprise his role as Rick Deckard in the film, which originally took place in a dystopian 2019 Los Angeles.
Further plot details are not known.
Kim Thanks Fans With Butt Pic As Kanye Admits He Is "Trying As Many Times A Day" As He Can To Get Her Pregnant
Kanye West gave a revealing new interview to BBC Radio 1's Zane Lowe today, and while the rapper talked about classism and cried over the death of his fashion design professor friend Louise Wilson, what really caught our attention was when he admitted that he's banging wife Kim Kardashian as much as possible in an attempt to give their daughter North a sibling.
"Oh, I'm practicing really hard. I try as many times a day I can. Nori, this one is for you. You need a sibling," he revealed about his constant sex with Kimmy K.
Doing the deed with Yeezy all the time must be so exhausting that she can't even muster the strength to put clothes on, because the reality star posted this sexy image of herself in nothing but a thong today as a "thank you" to her 27 million followers. "27 mil!!!!! Thank you so much!!!! I love you all!!!!!" she captioned the snapshot, which gives us an eyeful of her gigantic ass in leopard print lingerie.
After hearing and seeing all this, we think it's a miracle Kimye makes it out of bed in the morning!
The Kardashians Bank $100 Million In E! Deal For Four More Seasons Of KUWTK
The Kardashian family just inked a new $100 million deal to stay on E! and film Keeping Up with the Kardashians for four more years, Page Six first reported. This marks E!'s highest contract to date, and Kris Jenner was responsible for negotiating it. She even threatened to leave the network at one point!
"This has been in the works for almost a year. Kris is a fierce negotiator. They were not planning on leaving E!, but she was playing major hardball and threatening to leave. E! needs them," a source dished to Us Weekly.
So who exactly gets a cut of the pie? Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, Kendall, Kylie, and Kris… all the Kardashian ladies, minus Bruce! There was no mention of Scott, Rob, or Kanye, so they might just make occasional appearances. As previously reported, Bruce will be getting his own docuseries on the network to follow his transition from male to female.
This agreement doesn't limit the gals from exploring other things, like TV hosting, modeling, or endorsement deals.
Bruce Jenner Will Go By The Name Belinda And Date Women After Transition
Bruce Jenner's transition from male to female has brought up numerous questions, like which sex he will date and how he plans to dress, and now we have a few answers! The former Olympian "can't imagine himself being attracted to men" and will most likely be interested in women, Star magazine reports.
"He's not sure if the hormone treatments will change how he feels about men. But right now he says that he still likes women. He's always loved the ladies. He longs to be feminine and pretty - and also to feel the touch of another woman," a source revealed to the mag.
The Kardashian family patriarch will be a lesbian… and he's going to go by the name Belinda!
On an upcoming episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kim spills Bruce's wish to fall in love as a woman with a woman. "Bruce wants to settle down with a woman. Whoever she is, she will be the first to love Bruce for who he really is. She'll be his one true love," she says on-camera. The reality star was rumored to be dating Kris Jenner's former assistant Ronda Kamihara, but only time will tell if their relationship survives his gender reassignment.
Bruce has been giving his family time to adjust to his change, but he has reportedly started to dress as a female. "He wore a simple dark blue dress with heels, pearl earrings, and a jacket," a source said of Bruce at a recent family event.
Justin Bieber Buys Beverly Hills Mansion
Justin Bieber has found a new place to call home in Beverly Hills!
The 6,000-square-foot mansion has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, and though it's about 1,500 square feet smaller than Bieber's last pad, the gorgeous pool and stunning interiors make up for the difference in size. The original structure was torn down and rebuilt in 2010, and according to listing info it was remodeled in 2011, but we have a feeling that's when construction was completed. Last spring it was put on the market for just under $6 million, but no transactions appear to have taken place since then.
The pad has terrazzo floors and hardwood throughout, and from a steam shower to a home theater, this seems like the perfect spot for Bieber. There are large windows and sweeping city views, and the pool area has a colorful lighting system, which is something Bieber has been a fan of at his other residences.

Madonna Has Epic Fall During Her Brit Awards Performance
Madonna fell right on her ass during her performance of "I'm Going To Carry On" at the 2015 Brit Awards.
The whole scene seems ironically timed since the lyrics of her song included "Pick Me Up" and "I'm Gonna Carry On."
We hope the 56-year-old Material Girl didn't break a hip -- she ain't no spring chicken!
Madonna Calls Kanye A "Beautiful Madman", Talks Lady Gaga Feud And Love For Taylor Swift In New Rolling Stone Interview
Madonna covers the new issue of Rolling Stone, and the singer chatted candidly about some of Hollywood's biggest stars, including what she thinks about Kanye, her reported feud with Lady Gaga, and her love for Taylor Swift. There are so many good quotes from this interview.
On Kanye West:
"He's a brilliant madman. He can't help himself. Like, he doesn't have the same filters other people have. He has to blurt things out—he's always saying inappropriate stuff. But he also has brilliant ideas in the studio, if you can get him to pay attention long enough. I don't always agree with the things he says or does—I don't always like his music, even. But he's a beautiful mess. I love him...I think he takes award shows too seriously...So that part of him I can't relate to. Like, what's the point of fighting for somebody to...like, 'This person should have got it?' Don't come to an award show looking for justice!"
Giuliana Rancic Publicly Apologizes To Zendaya For Joking That Her Hair Smelled Like "Weed"
After public outcry over some really insensitive and inappropriate comments, Giuliana Rancic has her tail between her legs. The E! host made a public apology for the jokes she had made about the actress Zendaya on Monday's headline-making episode of Fashion Police.
“I’d really like to address something that’s weighing very heavy on my heart,” Rancic began. “I want to apologize for a comment that I made on last night’s Fashion Police about Zendaya’s hair.”
The host then went on to say, "Something I said last night did cross the line ... I didn’t intend to hurt anybody, but I’ve learned it’s not my intent that matters, it’s the result.”
All the hubbub started when the skeletal E! star poked fun at K.C. Undercover actress and her Oscar hairstyle, which consisted of some fierce dread locks, on Monday's episode of Fashion Police. On the show, Rancic said that star must have smelled of "patchouli" and "weed."
Zendaya then spoke out about the comments, posting a response on her Instagram. "There is a fine line between what is funny and disrespectful," she wrote. "Someone said something about my hair at the Oscars that left me in awe. Not because I was relishing in rave outfit reviews, but because I was hit with ignorant slurs and pure disrespect."

Beyonce Goes Braless For Lunch With Husband Jay Z
Beyonce decided to ditch her bra for lunch with husband Jay Z.
The pair dined on vegan fare at Gracias Madre in West Hollywood but we have a feeling Jay was paying more attention to his wife than to the food.
The pop star wore her hair in loose curls and wore a denim pencil skirt with a chambray button down -- completely unbuttoned -- carrying a black leather bucket bag. Guess Bey was feeling frisky today!
Knowles recently announced she'd launch a vegan food delivery service so maybe she was doing some research for her new business, loading up on some of the best healthy meatless food in LA.
Britney Spears Flashes Her Buff Arms And Tight Tummy At The Gym
Britney Spears headed to the gym in Calabasas today, and the pop princess was looking mighty fit in a tank top that exposed her muscular arms and toned abs. Maybe she wanted to work off some aggression after Christina Aguilera mocked her singing abilities on Jimmy Fallon last night?
Eddie Redmayne Heads Back To England, Can't Stop Smiling After Oscar Win
Eddie Redmayne can't stop smiling and we can't blame him! On Sunday night, the Brit took home the Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in the Stephen Hawking biopic, The Theory of Everything, and he seems pretty happy about his big win!
The 33-year-old held hands with his new bride Hannah Bagshawe, whom he married in December, as he jetted out of Los Angeles and back to London on Monday. For the flight, the sexy actor opted for a black pea coat, jeans and a pair of grey Converse.
Hawking himself was quite moved by the actor's Oscar win. A tweet went out from his official account, "Congratulations to Eddie Redmayne for winning an #Oscar for playing me in The Theory of Everything Movie. Well done Eddie, I'm very proud of you. -SH"
Rumer Willis Joins The Cast Of The 20th Season Of Dancing With The Stars
Rumer Willis is ready to take her moves to the dance floor! On Tuesday, Good Morning America announced the cast of the 20th season of Dancing with the Stars -- and it turns out that Demi Moore and Bruce Willis' eldest daughter will be on the short list of celebs vying for the coveted Mirror Ball trophy.

We aren't surprised to hear that Demi Moore's talented daughter, who will be paired with Valentin Chmerkovskiy, is ready to bust a move for the world. Recently, the actress has been polishing up her dance skills for the stage in West Hollywood in a production of For The Record: Dear John Hughes at DBA. The immersive cabaret show, which also stars Evan Rachel Wood, "relives the acclaimed director's coming of age 1980's teen flicks including Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, Weird Science, Pretty In Pink, Some Kind of Wonderful and Ferris Bueller's Day Off." If fans want to catch her before she takes it to the ballroom, the House Bunny actress appears in the show until April 5.

Vito Schnabel Looks About As Uncomfortable As We Are About Heidi Klum's PDA
The 41-year-old supermodel couldn't seem to control herself with her much younger boyfriend, Vito Schnabel, who is the son of artist Julian Schnabel. The gruesome twosome were sitting on the sidelines at Heidi's daughter's soccer game on Saturday -- and Heidi seemed to be feeling frisky.
That's right -- they were at a child's sports game! Umm not the time or place for all that makin' out, Klum!
We have to say -- we think Vito seems to look really ill at ease with all canoodling. The 28-year-old looks wildly uncomfortable by the public displays of affection, pull his body and face away from his purring lady. We can't blame him -- there are children everywhere -- and not just random kids -- her kids. It's awkward!
For the love fest, Heidi wore ripped jeans with a dark sweater and Supra high-tops, while Vito wore a look of embarrassment!
Last night, Heidi and Vito hob nobbed with the rich and famous at some Oscar parties. The Project Runway host raised some eyebrows when she slinked about in an oh-so-racy, cut-out gown. Maybe someone's trying to make Vito jealous?!
Jennifer Lopez Takes Oscar Selfies With Jennifer Aniston, Justin Theroux, And Meryl Streep
Jennifer Lopez thoroughly enjoyed her night at the Academy Awards, and made sure to document the whole experience by taking photos with some of Hollywood's biggest names, like Jennifer Aniston, Justin Theroux, and Meryl Streep!
The singer stole the show on the red carpet, and was like a magnet to all the stars inside!

The 2015 Academy Awards: Complete Oscar Winners List
"Birdman Or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)" won Best Picture at the 87th annual Academy Awards on Sunday, besting "American Sniper," "Boyhood," "The Grand Budapest Hotel," "The Imitation Game," "Selma," "The Theory of Everything" and "Whiplash" for the honor.
"Birdman" won three other Oscars: Best Director for Alejandro G. Iñárritu, Best Cinematography for Emmanuel Lubezki (his second Oscars win in a row after last year's "Gravity") and Best Original Screenplay.
It wasn't a total route for "Birdman": star Michael Keaton lost Best Actor to Eddie Redmayne for "The Theory of Everything."
The other acting awards went to Julianne Moore (Best Actress for "Still Alice"), J.K. Simmons (Best Supporting Actor for "Whiplash") and Patricia Arquette (Best Supporting Actress for "Boyhood").
"Birdman" and "The Grand Budapest Hotel" tied for the most nominations going into the night with nine, and each film won four awards. Anderson's drama took home Best Original Score for Alexandre Desplat, Best Production Design, Best Costume Design and Best Makeup and Hairstyling.
"Whiplash" was another big winner, with three Oscars: Simmons' award, Best Editing and Best Sound Mixing.
Poland's "Ida" won Best Foreign Language Film, the first film from Poland to ever win the Oscar in the category. "Big Hero 6" won Best Animated Film. Laura Poitras' "Citizenfour" won Best Documentary.
Common and John Legend won Best Original Song for "Glory" from "Selma."
A full list of this year's winners is below....
The Sexiest Red Carpet Looks At The 2015 Oscars
Jennifer Aniston looked red hot in her strapless Versace and Fred Leighton jewelry.
Meanwhile, new mom Scarlett Johansson wore an interesting emerald green number, with what looked like fancy kale around her neck ... is that a necklace or part of the dress? And what the heck happened to her hair? She shaved off the sides and left the long top, a la Kelly Osbourne. I guess it takes less time to style in the morning when you've got to tend to baby.
And newcomer Dakota Johnson kept it simple and sexy in Saint Laurent -- a sleek, slinky red number, appropriate for the star of Fifty Shades of Grey.
Black And White And RED All Over!
Reese Witherspoon wore a simple black-and-white strapless column dress, but it couldn't be classier or more chic and unusual for America's Sweetheart. The look is Tom Ford -- Reese and other A-listers attended, and WALKED in the famous designers pre-Oscar runway show.
Meanwhile, Sienna Miller wore Oscar de la Renta -- which is actually black and navy. The American Sniper star's dress was see-through lace on the bottom half of the skirt and the bodice featured velvet bows.
Lady Gaga, Keira Knightley And Jennifer Lopez Go Big!
Lady Gaga and Jennifer Lopez obviously believe they should go big or go home!
And that, they did ... Gaga donned custom Alaia -- the designer's first-ever Oscars design. The singer will perform tonight and wear ... count 'em, no fewer than THREE custom pieces by Azzedine.
Gaga posed with an unlikely pal -- the more understated Keira Knightley, who wore an embroidered tulle and silk, high-waisted dress over her baby bump. The look is Valentino ... perfection!
The biggest surprise was Jennifer Lopez in a fuller-than-full Elie Saab gown covered in sequins, looking like a hot, Latina fairy princess.
Jack Nicholson: I'll Sell You My Lakers Tickets... I'm Sorta Over It
Jack Nicholson says he's willing to sell you his tickets for face value ... since he's not as motivated to go the Staples Center as he used to be.
It's actually pretty sad ... Nicholson -- who's been a staple at the Lakers games for decades -- was leaving Madeo in Beverly Hills when he told a paparazzi he's just not as into the Lake Show as he used to be. We're guessing the team's abysmal record has a lot to do with it.
The good news? You could sit right next to stars like Leo DiCaprio and Mark Wahlberg ... that is, if they even feel like showing up these days.
Box Office: 'Fifty Shades' Crosses $400 Million Globally Despite Big Drop In U.S.
Universal's Fifty Shades of Grey declined a massive 73 percent in its second outing in North America, suggesting that most of the movie's sizzle came during the first weekend.
Still, the film adaptation of EL James' S&M-laced romance novel has nothing to be embarrassed about. Fifty Shades easily stayed No. 1 everywhere as it raced past the $400 million mark globally, an enviable feat. Domestically, the $40 million film earned $23.2 million for a 10-day total of $130.1 million.
Overseas, Fifty Shades is far more of a powerhouse, declining 57 percent to $68.1 million for a whopping international total of $280.5 million. The movie remained No. 1 in 50 markets.
Everyone was expecting a big falloff in the U.S., considering Fifty Shades' record-breaking $85 million debut over Valentine's Day and Presidents Day weekend, although it declined more than other female-fueled properties based on a book (as an example, The Fault in Our Stars fell 70 percent). Fifty Shades ranks roughly No. 35 on the list of biggest declines.
Birdman Wins Big At 2015 Independent Spirit Awards
While some stars were partying it up on Oscars eve, others opted for a more celebratory gathering at this year's Independent Spirit Awards!
The final award show before the big one honored some of the year's top films, with Birdman coming away with many of the more prestigious awards for the night including Best Picture and Best Actor (Michael Keaton). Boyhood was hot on its heels as it took Best Director and Best Supporting Female (Patricia Arquette) in what some say could be a solid indicator of what to expect at the highly anticipated 87th Academy Awards.
Stars like Scarlett Johansson, Olivia Munn and Kerry Washington were on hand to celebrate with their peers and take in the festivities for the night. See the complete list of winners as well as who else attended the award show.
Trumpet Master Clark Terry Dies At Age 94
Clark Terry, a Grammy award-winning trumpet player and composer who recorded with greats such as Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Quincy Jones, has died aged 94, his wife said on Sunday.
Terry, who had gone into hospice care after suffering from diabetes,
"has joined the big band in heaven where he'll be singing and playing
with the angels", Gwen Terry said on the musician's Facebook page.
"He left us peacefully, surrounded by his family, students and friends."
Born in St. Louis, Missouri, Terry won fame after serving
several years in the navy, playing with Count Basie and Duke Ellington
from the late 1940s through the 1950s, before joining The Tonight Show
band, where he played under its famed bandleader Doc Severinsen.
According to his website, Terry is one of the most
recorded musicians in the history of jazz, with more than 900 recordings
with names such as Oscar Peterson, Dizzy Gillespie, Dinah Washington,
Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Billy Strayhorn and Thelonious Monk.
