Did Anna and Howard tie the knot?


According to Star Magazine, Anna Nicole Smith married her long-time attorney and close confidante, Howard K. Stern, this morning just shortly before 10:30 am in Nassau, Bahamas. The wedding occurred only 18 days after the death of Anna's son Daniel, 20, from an accidental drug overdose in her Nassau hospital room on September 10.


"There was heavy security around the yacht, plus extra speedboats to deliver more supplies as needed (including unlimited Dom Perignon champagne) from the mainland to the catamaran," says the eyewitness, who adds that the wedding party celebrated the union afterwards by having a swim party around the yacht "and Anna was wearing a pink bikini! Later on, she changed into a colorful, one-piece suit with a wrap around her waist."

Two days before, on September 26, Stern appeared live on the Larry King Show via satellite from the Bahamas, to announce that he was the father of Anna's newborn daughter Danilynne Hope, that he and Anna "love each other" and that the duo would get married "at some point." Apparently, that point arrived much sooner than later. A source adds: "Stern was making all the arrangements in the days before the wedding."

Make it go away


Dustin Diamond mostly known as dork Screech Powers from "Saved by the Bell" is ready for his porn tape moment.

He's apparently featured doing the "Dirty Sanchez" (I just threw up in my mouth) in a 40-minute sex tape with 2 other women.

Roger Paul, Dustin's manager revealed: "I haven't seen the tape. I've heard rumors. Dustin has been trying to escape the Screech typecast. So this may help me get more bookings."

Um, ok Dustin, if I promise to never think of you as Screech again, and everyone in the whole world promises to never think of you as Screech again. will you make this whole porn tape thing go away? It's just not right.

Good try. A for effort. But come on. Knock it off.

Or I will have A.C. Slater kick your ass.

Right after he's done dancing around in spandex.

One, Two..Freddie's coming for you...

You remember "Nightmare on Elm Street." That movie scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. My brother Dimitri suggested we watch it for the first time one night when we were babysitting. Good times. Although it scared me, I watched it many times, along with all the others. Part 2, part 3, part 47. They don't make them like that anymore.

It has remained a classic, and now the 4 bedroom house (which is actually on Genesse Ave, not Elm St.) where Krueger massacared the kids on Elm Street is on the market for $1 million.

The movie made a household name out of a then-unknown actor called Johnny Depp - after he was discovered by the daughter of the film's director, Wes Craven. He explained: "It was kind of like daughters' day at the office - she just happened to be there.

We'd been casting for Elm Street, and the main character Nancy had this boyfriend Glenn. We were looking for the usual handsome young Hollywood kid coming up and all off a sudden in comes this guy, Johnny Depp."He added: "He was pale, kind of feminine looking, with cigarette stains on his fingers and I almost cast someone else. But my daughter just looked at me and said 'Johnny Depp - he's heaven' and I just went 'okay!'"

Thank goodness for his daughter! The Johnny Depp scene with the TV is a classic one.

It would be pretty bizare to live in this house. Yes, it was only a movie, but I would still be petrified going down to the basement. I have a very active imagination, and this would just be fuel for the fire.

Cowboy Down & Anna's baby daddy

"Flamboyant Dallas Cowboys receiver Terrell Owens tried to kill himself by overdosing on pain medication, even putting two more pills into his mouth after a friend intervened, according to a police report obtained Wednesday.

The report said Owens was asked by rescue workers 'if he was attempting to harm himself, at which time (he) stated, ‘Yes.'

The Dallas police report said the 32-year-old Owens told his friend 'that he was depressed."
The Cowboys have scheduled a news conference for 2:30PM ET
----------------------------------------------
Anna Nicole Smith has reveleved the father of her new baby girl is lawyer and best friend Howard K. Stern. I pretty much figured that's who the Dad was. It's not really that big of a reveal.

Howard said: "She is the one thing that is really keeping Anna going. And through it all, even with all the pain, she has been a great mother, a very attentive mother."

Also, Howard revealed:

They did sell the pictures of the last moments of Anna's now deceased son, but that the proceeds are for a foundation in honor of Daniel.

People close to Anna Nicole always sign a confidentiality agreement, and he's surprised that Larry Birkhead - whose publicly claimed that he is the baby's father - has spoken out to the media, for which he could be sued.

He and Anna Nicole are going are going to live in the Bahamas.

They still don't know the cause of death of Anna's son, Daniel. They confirm the presence on his body of antidepressants.- Anna's devastated.- That Anna did not yell at him "It's all your fault" in the hospital room where Daniel died.- That the room was not full of blood when the kid died.

He and Anna Nicole have told Larry Birkhead that he is not the father of the little girl.- He will have a DNA, only if is required by law in case of a lawsuit brought by Birkhead.

He explained: "We love each other and this has been going on for a very longtime but because of my relationship as her lawyer, we felt it was best tokeep everything hidden."

Um..I hate to break it to him, but they kept nothing hidden. It has always been obvious that those two are involved. But, hey, good for them. He loved her when she was fat and he loved her when she was skinny. And he is helping her through this awful time in her life.

They are discussing getting married and becoming a real family with their newborn daughter, who they named Danilynne Hope. Dani pays tribute to the recently deceased Daniel and Lynne is an homage to Anna Nicole's birth name, Vicky Lynne Hogan.

Old Married Couple

Matt and I have been married for almost a month (already! Where did the time go?) so I thought I'd give you an update. We're still trying to get settled in and get all our boxes unpacked. We're going to be looking to buy a house next year, but for now, Matt moved into my place. Which is now our place.

It feels like we both just moved it because of the constant work we've been doing. I moved all my clothes into the other room (which is now the office/Gina's boudoir/Matt's cat's home) so that took a very long time. I had to sort through each item and decide if I wanted to keep it in my closet now, pack it up for the new house or pack for donation or garage sale. Sounds easy enough, but you are severly underestimating how many clothes, shoes, purses, hats etc. I have. It's a lot. A. Lot.

We received so many wonderful wedding gifts that it was overwhelming. Thank you so much for the great (fill in the blank) that you sent us. We really love it and use it all the time. Ok, so we haven't got around to sending thank you cards yet, but we will. It's definitly on our list of important things to do. Once we can find a place to put all of our gifts, the thank you cards will shortly follow.

I was a little worried about living together. Not for any other reason other than the simple fact that Matt and I are so different in so many different ways. I know he's very settled into his routines, which for the most part are very structured. He likes to be organized, have a place for everything and know what the plan is for the week.

And I also know that I'm very settled into my routines, which for the most part is well, whatever it is at that moment. I'm a planner for a lot of things (I love my lists) but on the same hand, I'm so far from that. I don't know what time I'm going to have dinner every night. I don't lay out my clothes for work the night before. I don't have a particular day that I do laundry. I don't have an exact time that I wake up every morning. I don't have a time that I go to bed at night. My scissors don't go into the same draw everytime I'm done using them. I don't set my mail down in the exact same place each time. I can kind of be all over the place but it's only because I just go with the flow.

I was slightly nervous that these two personalities, while ok for the 4 night a week sleep over worked just fine, would spark some sensitivity when faced with an every day meeting.

We got back from our honeymoon and all was good. Another week went by, still good. Great infact. Then we went back to work. I figured that once we got back to the "real world" that the stress of every day at an office would make things more delicate at home.

I'm happy to report that I was wrong:) Things are going beautifully. We don't feel like we're totally overpowering each others space and we're getting our routines down. I love falling asleep next to my husband every night. I feel like a very lucky girl. Not only is he handsome, smart, and a great cook. He's also patient, loving, and undertanding of my "pack rat" tendancies. He's honest, romatic and doesn't get mad at me when I bring home to many pairs of new shoes.

And the most important quality. The thing that I think tops the list? He makes me laugh. They have different levels. Sometimes it's that little chuckle. Sometimes it's that unexpected and surprised laughter. Sometimes it's that really good deep and hearty laughter, the one where you don't want to stop because it feels so good. And sometimes it's that kind of laugh where you're slapping your knee but no nosie is actually coming out of your mouth. The one where you feel the tears sliding down your face as your trying to catch your breath. They're all good. And they're all a big part of our lives.

I'm very happy being Mrs. Kincaid and I'm looking forward for what's to some.

Hell to tha No

Whitney Houston has filed for divorce from troubled hubby Bobby Brown.

She has gone through quite a struggle with her addictions and it seems that Bobby was such fuel for the fire. (remember her crack den of a bathroom on the front page of the National Enquirer? That was insane!)

Did you ever see "Being Bobby Brown?" Wow, they are a really weird couple. He's totally lost his mind and she's not far behind him. I feel sorry for their daughter who's caught in the middle of this crazy club sandwich.

Access Hollywood reports "Whitney made a splash last night at the Beverly Hilton Hotel with a surprise appearance at the "The Society of Singers Presents the 15th Annual Ella Award honoring Johnny Mathis." Flanked by her mentor, Clive Davis, and cousin, Dionne Warwick (who performed at the event), Whitney looked every bit the picture of health and happiness, the likes of which the public hasn't seen from her in quite some time.

The glamorous Whitney was all smiles posing for photographs, laughing arm-in-arm with Davis and Warwick which appeared reminiscent of years past when she was at the top of her game as one of the leading ladies of the music industry.

Mr. Davis told MTV last week that he and Whitney are at work right now on a comeback album, and they've already chosen six songs for the project. Clive had this to say about what fans can expect: 'Whitney is Whitney, and there ain't nobody like her. It'll be Whitney. It won't be somebody reaching for a current trend, that's for sure.'

Whitney has been under public scrutiny in recent years due to her declining weight, tumultous marriage to singer Bobby Brown, and her stint in a rehabilitation facility in 2005 (for undisclosed reasons). Her last studio album, "One Wish: The Holiday Album," only reached No. 49 on the Billboard 200 album chart after its November 2003 release, performing far below her previous efforts. "

I bet that she's going to come back and totally win back the public again. That's the amazing thing about being a celeb. You can do the most damming thing in the world, but with a good PR agent to spin it for you, you can end up more famous than before! Just ask Kate Moss.

Exteme Makeover, minus the tears


For those of you that know me, does this room on the left look familiar at all?

If not, picture it with a pool table, couches and a tv in it.

Nothing?

Ok, for you old skoolers...picture us standing in our most formal gear, evening gowns and tuxedos and we're in high school.

Do you give up?

It's my parents living room of their house on Galaxy Drive. After many years of drawing plans for their dream house, and 2 years of fighting the city for permits, they are finally ready to move forward.



Here's the house from the backyard view.

All the grass is gone.

My Dad's famous built in bar-b-que has been put into storage.

We all miss hanging out here and can't wait for them to be done.




Here's the kitchen and kids den. I remember hanging out in these two room a lot during high school.

Lanie and I always plotting our next music video or dance routine.

Stamada forcing dessert on Erik and Jesse, even if they weren't hungry.

All of us sitting on the kitchen counters for hours on end pondering the eternal question "what do you want to do tonight?"

It will be exciting to see the house when it's all done and gussied up. But a part of me is sad because the house I remember that held all those great memories will look totally different.

But I'm sure I'll get over that when I see the wine cellar and theater room.


Another great photo by Steve Hoffmann

And in this corner


Court getting Nicolas ready for his prize fight.

All aboard


Matt and I on our English double decker bus. What an awesome day that was!!!
Thank you to Hoffman, our KICK ASS photographer for making us look so good;)

Stevie's secret


Aerosmith's Steven Tyler has been secretly battling hepatitis C and is now speaking out about it on Extra and also in a new Barbara Walters interview.

"I've been pretty quiet about this," he says. "The band took a break about three years ago. … [My doctor] said now is the time, and it's 11 months of chemotherapy so I went on that, and it about killed me."

He added: "You know, it really hurt. It was a bad, bad period. I'm in AA, and I tried to go three, four, five months with nothing, and it about killed me. Hepatitis C is the one that, of all the people in this room, at least three have it and don't know it,"

Tyler says. "It's the silent killer. I may go on 'Oprah' and talk about this. "

let your freak flag fly

Clink the photo to see something freakish about Kate that I never noticed before. Do you see what it is?

Look harder...

Look down....

She has six toes! Weird! Do you think this is real or photo shopped?

One of my all time fav.pics

Uncle Matty and lil Eva enjoying some play time.

I love that they are both so happy and excited. And I love that Eva is smiling so big that her eyes are almost closed.

Who's going to make a great Daddy one day...

a couple of things

People magazine reports:

Lindsay Lohan and Harry Morton have split up, multiple sources confirm. "Harry broke up with Lindsay yesterday (Thursday) at Chateau Marmont after they had dinner on the courtyard patio. Nothing happened at dinner, but shortly afterward, he broke up with her."

Why the split? "She was too much drama," says the source. "Lindsay did cut down on the partying, but with her it's all relative. Harry is sober. It wasn't the partying that broke them up. She's young and a little bit immature. Harry's more low-key and not into the same stuff she's into."

However, a source close to Lohan says, "No one 'dumped' anyone. You don't dump people when you're 20 and 25. You have a mature relationship, and you take a break and you see what happens. Everyone does that."

Um, I don't care how old you are. You can get dumped at any age, no matter what you call it.
-------------------------------

How hot is Gwen? I love her. It looks like Kingston is getting big. She seems so comfortable with her role as Mom. And she's never hiding herself or her baby.

You never hear anything lame about her. No fights with her BFF, no cheating on her husband, Gavin Rossdale. It seems like this OC girl just lives a normal life with her hubby and baby. But she just so happens to be fabulous.

I gotta give her props for that.

A lil mid afternoon gossip

"Hey, want to know a secret? I'm engaged!"

Talk about having no time to lose! Denise Richards is reportedly engaged to Richie Sambora even though the rocker is technically still married to Heather.

He is said to have popped the question last month and the couple are planning to wed as soon as Richie's divorce from Heather Locklear is finalized.

Mmm K. Is it really wise to rush right into this? She bugs me. I don't see the appeal.
---------------------------------------

What do we think of Cameron with dark hair? I think she looks cute. I know a lot of people find her annoying, but I like her. She seems like she's still got a good grip on reality.

Are her and Justin ever going to get married? They have been dating about 4 years now. He told a magazine that they have no intentions of ever getting married because things are just fine the way they are.

Oh JT. Give the girl a ring. Use some of that "Sexy Back" money to seal the deal already.

-------------------------------------------
I had a photo here that went with this next entry, but I deleted it by mistake, and now it won't reload. Grr.

Anyway, I mentioned a few posts ago that Kate Hudson and her hubby, Chris Robinson split up. Tthere were rumors that she and Owen Wilson having a little something something, which is some what scandelous. Then things died down because Kate and Chris said they were going to try and work out it. Well looky looky what US Weekly is reporting:

Just past 10:30 pm on September 15, Kate Hudson, 27, and three girlfriends strolled into L.A.’s Chateau Marmont – where the who’s who of Hollywood regularly meet (and hook up).

As if on cue, 45 minutes later, a blond guy wearing a baseball cap approached their corner table and kissed Hudson on the cheek. “It was Owen Wilson,” says another Chateau patron. “She was so happy to see him!”

The You, Me and Dupree costars whispered in each other’s ears as their knees touched and she showed him photos on her digital camera. Says the patron, “They gave each other their undivided attention.” The group exited just past midnight, then hit the chic Les Deux club – where Hudson and Wilson, 37, flirted in front of high-profile revelers, including Prince. “They smiled the entire time,” says a witness. “They didn’t care who saw.”

Hmm..so, what do you think? They could just be close friends?

Gilby Knew

It seems that Gilby always had a thing for Lukas.

"I was always kind of leaning towards Lukas," he tells AOL Music, "but I could not ignore the fan reactions that Dilana got. After two or three weeks I started going, 'This would be so bad-ass for Dilana to front the band.' But when Lukas came up and sang one of our originals, it just felt so natural to me. In my mind, I was really undecided up until the very end."

AOL music reports "Rossi says while he believed he could be the guy all along, his nerves caught up with him at the end. 'That was probably the only time I felt nervous, when it came down to two of us.' So how did he celebrate? "I had a great time last night. I went to Geisha House and saw everybody from the show, friends and family. It was a really dope evening."

I heard that they are going to have to rename the band because there is already another band called "Supernova" and they are threatning to sue.

I'm intrested to see how the album sounds, but I don't think I would go see the tour.

Jesse's future ex husband



No particular reason for this post. Just thought my friend Jesse would appreciate this picture of Jakey flashing his abs. Happy Friday!

Some of my favorite photos






























All grown up

How cute is this photo? This is the first time that my Dad saw me on my wedding day. This was the first moment that he saw his oldest daughter (who's a hardcore Daddy's girl by the way) all dressed up and ready to become a wife.

He hadn't seen the dress, he hadn't seen me get my hair and make up done, nothing. He stayed upstairs, away from the chaos. Downstairs were all my bridesmaids, flowers girls, my sister, my Mom, 2 hair and make up girls, and other random people popping in and out.

My Dad is the best. No, I mean it. He really is the best. He's amazing and I love him so much. And I love this photo.
