X Factor Close to Signing on New Judges. Will Kelly Rowland and Paulina Rubio Bring Ratings?
Fans of the X Factor have been waiting very patiently to find out who would fill the empty spots that were left behind by Britney Spears and L.A. Reid. We knew that Simon Cowell and Demi Lovato would be returning, but who the heck was going to join them? It seemed like it took forever for them to decide, but it looks like they now have made a decision. Sources connected with the show have told E! News that Kelly Rowland and Paulina Rubio are in “final talks” with the show.
Not surprisingly, this news comes just a few days before the X Factor is required to have all four judges signed on. They are scheduled to begin filming for the new season on Tuesday. Many peple are surprised that Fox did not try to get any “big” names, but it is believed they wanted to move away from that. After all, Britney Spears didn’t really work for them last season, and Mariah Carey certainly didn’t work for American Idol this year.
Sources claim that Fox focused more on finding celebrities with some judging experience. Kelly Rowland was a judge on the eighth season of the X Factor UK, and Rubio was a judge on La Voz…Mexico. The official announcement of the hiring of the new judges should come sometime today, at least according to Mr. Simon Cowell. Cowell tweeted over the weekend,
“We start x factor auditions in Charleston on Tuesday. The new panel will be announced on Monday. This is going to be an interesting show!”
Rowland and Rubio, huh? I actually think those are two solid choices. They didn’t go for the big celebrity, they went with people that have personality. I like it! Looking forward to watching the show this year.

Katrina Bowden is off the Market!
Sad news to report today, the beautiful Katrina Bowden is officially off the market. The extremely hot actress who is best known for her work on NBC’s 30 rock. The 24-year-old said “I do” on Sunday at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. It was a rainy and cloudy day, but it didn’t stop Katrina and her new husband Ben Jorgensen from having a wonderful wedding ceremony. The happy couple had been engaged for about a year and half now, and believe it or not, they planned the entire wedding by themselves!
Although, Katrina admitted a few months back that it was a little harder than she expected, “It’s just crazy. I didn’t know anything about weddings, and now I’m starting to learn everything and it’s just kind of nuts. There’s a lot that goes into it. I don’t have a planner, so I’m doing it myself.” the actress told PEOPLE magazine. She did admit that finding her dress was a pretty painless experience. “It was very easy to find. It was one of the first dresses I tried on.” she told the magazine.
Katrina and Ben plan to have a wonderful honeymoon down in Hawaii. Apparently, they asked for guests to help pay for their honeymoon…‘cause why not? I’d rather have a trip to Hawaii than some stupid toaster oven. You want toast? Put it on the sidewalk on a very hot day and wait a few hours, there is your damn toast!

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart Over?
Twilight fans cover your eyes because you might not like the news in this article. As most everyone knows, Kristen Stewart cheated on Robert Pattinson with a married man last year. Robert broke up with Kristen after she publicly apologized to him. It was an embarrassing and awkward situation for everyone involved, and it seemed like Robert and Kristen were over for good. However, Kristen must give some really great head because Robert took her back a short time later.
Since then, they have been spotted kissing each other , hugging, laughing and just last month they were pictured holding hands at Coachella. Things seemed to be back on track for the lovable vampires, but new reports are coming out that claim Robert and Kristen are no longer an item. According to the reports, it appears like the trouble started sometime earlier this month when Robert returned from New York to L.A. The first sign of “real trouble” was when Kristen Stewart was no where to be found on May 13, which most Twilight fans know is Robert’s birthday. He turned 27 this month, but he didn’t celebrate his birthday with Kristen. A source told PEOPLE magazine,
“It was very strange that they didn’t celebrate Rob’s birthday together. He had friends over at his house, but Kristen was not part of the celebration. For the past few days, they have not spent any time together. They again went from spending every second together, to spending more time apart at their separate houses. Kristen has been in a terrible mood, and it was obvious that things were not great with Rob.”
The source also claims that Kristen is behaving exactly like she did the last time they broke up. Not coming out of her house, and surrounding herself with very close friends. Another source talked with Us Weekly and claims that the couple had been fighting a lot, and that their was a lot of stress on their relationship. Kristen and Robert have yet to comment on the rumors, but we’ll keep you updated if they do.
Sorry to disappoint all you Twilight fans out there! At least you can still relive their intense passion in the movies, right? They can’t take that away from you, it’s on film! You can watch that awkward love scene again and again. Personally, I am more of a Jacob fan myself, I think they would have made a better couple. Their chemistry was just so great, you know? It really translated well on the big screen.
Oh, who am I kidding? I don’t freaking care who she ended up with. Besides, didn’t Jacob end up with her daughter, or something? Because that is not freaking creepy or anything. “I’m sorry, Jacob. I just can’t be with you…but I’ll give you my daughter as a consolation prize!” Does that seem strange to anybody else? (10)
The Billboard Awards: Miguel Leg Drop – In Slow Motion
Just in case you missed it or perhaps it went too fast for you to see. Miguel who has the athletic prowess of a grasshopper with no legs, attempts to jump from stage to stage. Just before take off, he notices that either his pants are too tight or his hair is too heavy….either way he doesn’t quite make it. In the slow-mo version you can see that he not only Hulk Hogan Leg drops one girl, but he face kicks another.
I’m waiting for the law suits to pursue. I can’t get enough of this clip!!
Billboard Music Awards: Justin Bieber Booed and Taylor Swift Dominates
Well, the Billboard Music Awards were certainly interesting last night, at least as interesting as an award show can be. Not surprisingly, Taylor “I am a f–king princess” Swift dominated the entire night. The 23-year-old won a total of eight awards, including top artist and top album. And, of course, she seemed so shocked every single time she won. Really Taylor, really? Are you really not use to winning by now? Let’s be real here. I will say that the way they revealed her win for “top album” was pretty neat. Fans in the mosh pit area held up cell phones that spelled out the title of her album, “I’m really happy about this.” she said.
She also told the crowd, “You are the longest and best relationship I ever had.” I’ve got to hand it to her, the girl is good. She knows how to work a crowd and how to make people feel sorry for her. “Aw, poor Taylor! Always getting her heartbroken.” I’m not falling for that crap, though. She’s just too damn picky! And everyone knows she is just going out with people now in hopes that they’ll break her heart. She is going to be a 70-year-old still singing about how Larry from the bingo hall stood her up for brunch on Sunday.
Anyway, Justin Bieber was also at the award show and he also won a few awards, but something funny happened when he was accepting one of his awards. Bieber was booed by people in the crowd when he took the stage to accept the “Milestone Award.” Bieber seemed a little annoyed by the booing. He told the crowd,
“I’m 19-years-old; I think I’m doing a pretty good job. And basically from my heart I really just want to say it should really be about the music, it should be about the craft that I’m making. This is not a gimmick. I’m an artist and I should be taken seriously and all this other bull should not be spoken.”
Bieber is right! It should be about the music and the music only, but it’s not…which is why Bieber is so damn famous. Justin Bieber should feel extremely lucky that “real music” has nothing to do with it anymore. You just need a pretty face, a nice smile and a voice that can be digitally enhanced. Anyway, while awards were handed out last night, it was the performances that made everyone watch.
Justin Bieber performed with will.i.am and Selena Gomez took the stage to sing her new hit, “Come & Get It.” Macklemore performed his mega-hit and now award-winning “Thrift Shop” it won top rap song last night. Nicki Minaj “classed” things up when she gave Lil Wayne a lap dance on stage during her performance. Lil Wayne seemed to be enjoying himself, and we’re sure his ‘Lil Wang’ was enjoying the lap dance, as well.
It was truly a magical night, but I think Kid Rock summed it up best when he said, “Let’s give it up for people lip-synching under pre-recorded music.”
