RIHANNA & JAY-Z BRING IN THE NEW YEAR
THE KNOWLES TO DIVORCE
Beyonce's mother, Tina Knowles, has filed for divorce from the pop diva's father and manager, Mathew Knowles. Tina Knowles began legal proceedings Nov. 11, according to documents filed with the Harris County Court Clerk.
"The decision to end our marriage is an amicable one. We remain friends, parents, and business partners," the couple said in a statement provided to The Associated Press on Friday. "If anyone is expecting an ugly messy fight, they will be sadly disappointed. We ask for your respect of our privacy as we handle this matter."
The divorce filing came about a month after Mathew Knowles was named in a paternity suit. Los Angeles resident Alexsandra Wright claims in the lawsuit that he is the father of her unborn child.
Tina and Mathew Knowles wed in 1980. In addition to 27-year-old Beyonce, they have another daughter, 23-year-old singer Solange.

CHRIS HENRY DIES IN TRUCK ACCIDENT
Henry suffered "life-threatening injuries" after falling out of the bed of a pickup during a fight with his fiancee, police said earlier.
The incident occurred shortly before noon Wednesday when Henry's fiancee tried to drive off during a "domestic situation," only to have Henry jump into the bed of the truck, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department said in a written statement.
"The domestic situation continued between the operator and Mr. Henry," according to a police statement. Henry "came out of the back of the vehicle" about six-tenths of a mile from the house, police said.
Henry was believed to be in critical condition after the wreck, the Bengals said in a statement on their Web site. Police said Henry underwent treatment at the Carolinas Medical Center hospital in Charlotte.
Charlotte is the home of his fiancee's family, the team said.
The 26-year-old receiver has played for the Bengals for five seasons, but has been on the injured reserve list after suffering a dislocated forearm during a November 8 game against the Baltimore Ravens. The 6-foot-4, 200-pound Henry caught 12 passes for 236 yards and two touchdowns in eight games before being hurt.

MINORITY REPORT: JON BOTTOMS OUT
Last week, TLC successfully blocked Gosselin from making any profitable public appearances, causing the star’s livelihood to take a serious hit.
"Jon's in pretty serious financial trouble because his plan for making money was shut down in court,” the insider said. "He has warned his lawyers that he can't pay them and if he doesn't succeed against TLC, he will have no funds. He's even gone so far as to say that if they want to be paid, they will have to sue him."
Gosselin’s bills have been stacking up since his claim to fame, “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” was canceled this year in part to the drama from his pending divorce with his estranged wife and former co-star, Kate.
On Oct. 13, a judge ordered Gosselin to hand back $180,000 that he had withdrawn from the couple’s joint account. A few days later, TLC filed a suit against Jon for violating their contract by making paid and unpaid TV appearances on various media outlets without the network’s permission.
The embattled dad has since hired a father/son legal team recommended to him by Michael Lohan, another controversial dad in the media.
"Mark and Mike Heller were brought in because Michael Lohan was involved, and he convinced them to join Jon's team early on in the summer," the source said. "Lohan wanted to latch onto Jon and involved many people he knew. He convinced them Jon was going to have a successful career after the show."
The insider added that Gosselin, 32, is making no effort to find a legitimate job as he sinks deeper into debt.
"It's a good thing Kate Gosselin has been put in charge of the family funds that provide for the couple's eight children," said the spy. "She is the responsible parent."
Jon’s legal team have produced a written statement denying that their client is in the hole.
"Jon Gosselin’s New York lawyer has the highest regard for Jon Gosselin and will continue to work for Jon for as long as he requires their services," it reads. "The Hellers have no concern relevant to being paid by Jon for their services and see no circumstances under which they would ever sue Jon."
"This past year, Jon Gosselin was the most photographed man in America and appeared in more magazines than any other reality TV star," it continues. "Wherever he goes, there is an outpouring of love for him from his fans. And there is no doubt that he has a bright and shining career ahead of him."

CHARLIE MUPRHY'S WIFE PASSES
NO MORE NENE AND KIM????
The two are reportedly taking their requests to diva like levels and Bravo producers are shopping for replacements. Among their many requests is more money to be on the show. "Bravo has been taking meetings with some notable and wealthy Atlanta women about possibly joining the show," an insider tells the daily. "They're trying their best to keep the process under wraps, but they're gearing up to make a major move in the third season."
Although Usher's former wife Tameka Foster Raymond's name was floated about as a possible sixth housewife don't look to see her. "Tameka isn't very popular in Atlanta. The producers asked each one of the women how they would feel if she were cast, and they all said that they'd walk. That's the one thing they've been united about."
ALICIA A DIVA???
Alicia had flown into town to promote her amazing new album The Element of Freedom and was initially more than thrilled to be offered the grandest suite of all at the Jumeirah Carlton Tower Hotel in Knightsbridge.
But upon arrival on Monday morning Alicia was far from happy. Despite the suite being used to accommodate stars of the caliber of Michael Jackson and Madonna over the years, Alicia hated it. In fact the star – who’s riding high in the charts with Jay-Z on their Empire State Of Mind track – turned on her heel and walked away from what would have been a three-day stay – worth an estimated £5,000 – at the plush London gaff.
My source reveals: “The hotel had been in discussion with Alicia’s team for a week, preparing her suite with her favorite flowers, scents and goodies. The hotel’s Rib Room entrance on Sloane Square had even been closed off at her bodyguard’s request for her arrival. But when they saw the Luxury Suite, Alicia and her people asked for something bigger.
“They were told there wasn’t anything bigger and that the Luxury Suite was the biggest and best in the hotel.
“Basically, Alicia took one look and said she ‘didn’t feel the vibe’. And when she does that, she’s not joking, so the whole entourage piled into her limo and left.”
LIL WAYNE GETS START DATE
The charges date all the way back to July 22, 2007, when NYC police pulled over the rapper’s tour bus because they said they smelled pot. Cops claim that when an officer approached the bus, Lil Wayne threw out a bag with a gun inside. He pled guilty to attempted weapon possession on Oct. 22 this year.

KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN WELCOMES BABY
CHRIS BROWN VACATES TWITTER
That's right. He's left the twitter-sphere.
GV Says: This is soooo dramatic! SMH. "The industry is so mean to me....." The thing about Chris that so rubs me the wrong way is it's everyone's fault but his. It's Walmart's fault the album's not selling. It's Rihanna's fault that she baited him into beating her down to the white meat. How about just take responsibility, learn and move on. Not every project is going to sell 1 million copies and while it sucks he's not the only one it's happened to. H*ll, 50 Cent went from selling 1 mllion copies in a week to just moving a little over 100,000 on this latest project. It happens...and it doensn't mean the project is bad.
R. KELLY TO PEN NEW BOOK
Kelly's book will be written with celebrity co-author David Ritz and published by SmileyBooks, an imprint run by talk show host Tavis Smiley. Kelly promises to "tell-all" about the loss of his mother, the motivation behind his sexually-charged lyrics and his six-year legal ordeal.
"I'm writing this book as Robert, not R. Kelly," the singer said in a statement. "I'm tired of being misunderstood. I will show you the tears, fears, and sweat. I will open my heart and reveal the good in my life as well as all the drama. I want to tell it like it is."
Kelly joins such other African-American authors as Dr. Cornel West, Henrey Louis Gates, Jr. and Jeff Johnson at Smiley's publishing company.
Kelly's tenth studio album, "Untitled," was released last week and debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 with 114,000 copies sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
ERYKAY BADU READIES FOR NEW ALBUM
Erykah Badu will release her sixth studio album, "New Amerykah, Part II: Return of the Ankh," on Feb. 23, 2010 on Universal Motown. The 38-year-old Dallas, Texas, born singer says the set is called "Part II" because unlike 2008's more conscious-driven "New Amerykah Part I: 4th World War," she is "more free and full of life" this time around.
"I called it 'Part II: The Return of the Ankh' because this album is the sister of the left side of my brain -- it is the right side," Badu explained during a listening session this week at New York City's Chung King Studios. "'Part I was the left side of my thoughts -- it was more socially political and my thought process was more analytical. This time there wasn't anything to be concerned with -- the album is more emotional and flowy and talks about feelings. It reminds of the days of 'Baduizm' -- this is just about beats and rhymes in a cipher."
DIDDY A FASHION GURU
Queen of Style Anna Wintour may have been at the AOL Kickoff fete on Wednesday night, but everyone in the room wanted Diddy's fashion advice.
A spy inside the New York Stock Exchange noted that many middle-aged finance types stopped the music mogul to ask, "How do you like my tie? What about my suit?" — and Diddy happily stopped to offer his opinion.

TIGER LOSES FIRST MAJOR ENDORSEMENT
Two days after announcing he'll take an indefinite break from the sport of golf to focus on his marriage, Tiger Woods has lost his first major endorsement deal as a result of his alleged infidelities.
Global consulting firm Accenture announced they were cutting all ties with Woods Sunday, confirming he is "no longer the right representative" after the "circumstances of the last two weeks."Tiger served as pitchman for the last six years, appearing in the company's "Go ahead, be a Tiger" ad campaign.
However, another of Woods' major backers, Nike, is willing to retain him as a spokesman.
"Tiger has been part of Nike for more than a decade. He is the best golfer in the world and one of the greatest athletes of his era. We look forward to his return to golf," the sportswear and equipment supplier tells Usmagazine.com in a statement. "He and his family have Nike's full support."
On Friday, Woods stunned the sports world by announcing he would be taking a break from golf to save his marriage to Swedish supermodel Elin Nordegren. Over the past two weeks, no fewer than 13 women have alleged affairs with Woods, dad to daughter Sam, 2, and son Charlie, 10 months.
"I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children," Woods said in the statement posted on his Web site.
"I need to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person," he said. "It may not be possible to repair the damage I've done, but I want to do my best to try."

ELIN STANDING BY TIGER??? WTF?
People magazine, out Friday, reports that Elin Nordegren plans to stay married to Woods for the sake of their children.
According to People, the Swedish model herself is a "child of divorce" whose parents split when she was 6 years old.
“That's not something she’s likely going to want to do to [her children with Woods] Sam and Charlie,” a close friend of Nordegren tells People. “She really believes in the importance of parents staying together.”
Nordegren is not the only one who has her family's best interests in mind. Woods is reportedly genuinely sorry for cheating on his wife (numerous times) and is determined to keep his family together.
“He’s not perfect; we all know that now," a source close to the golfer tells People. "But he’s a good father, and he wants to be a good husband, too.”
The couple wed in 2004 and have two kids -- Sam, 2, and Charlie, 10 months.
Nordegren's friends tell People she knew about Woods' extracurricular activities but that he promised before their marriage that he would change.
"Elin had talked to other golfers and their wives about Tiger's wild parties," a friend told the magazine. "When she asked Tiger about it, he said he would stop doing it. And she believed him. But he never did."
People reports that Woods and Nordegren have had a rocky relationship for the past two years. The duo have allegedly had numerous public arguments in Stockholm, which seemed to explode on Nov. 27 in Florida when Nordegren allegedly attacked Woods with a golf club.
The golfer eventually crashed his car into a hydrant and a tree on his own property.
Though Woods' various mistresses seem to be slowly coming out of the woodwork, Nordegren reportedly was already aware of his various transgressions.
“Tiger has told Elin everything,” a source told People. “Nothing that’s coming out now is a surprise. She knows what he has done, and they’ve had some long talks about it. They are getting everything out in the open.”
Although some sources tell People Nordegren “honestly did not know Tiger was cheating on her,” others say she turned a blind eye to his affairs to maintain her luxurious lifestyle.
However, all of the sources agree that Nordegren is no pushover and intends to keep her family intact.
"Don’t let the pretty blond thing fool you –- she is tough," another source tells People. "She’s a fighter, and I am sure she’s fighting like hell right now, to keep her family intact, but also to make sure Tiger will always be haunted by this.”
ASHANTI HAS A STALKER
Ashanti has a creepy stalker - an Indiana salesman who has bombarded her mother with lewd text messages and gross, X-rated pictures, prosecutors said.
Devar Hurd, 31, is accused of stalking and harassing Tina Douglas with 32 messages between May 29 and July 18 and numerous phone calls in February.
He was arrested July 22 in Griffith, Ind., where he lives, and has been locked up at Rikers Island since.
He pleaded not guilty and faces possible trial in Manhattan Supreme Court on Monday.
The messages he sent were bizarrely personal and often explicit and included sex acts he wanted to perform on the mother and her daughters, court papers say.
"Hey Tina baby, how u doing sexy," read a May 29 message. "Tell Shani I'm coming straight home from work to put in sum overtime. U know how I do, LOL."
He also sent revealing pictures of himself, photos of Douglas' home and a picture of Ashanti's car, the documents said.
"Here's a pic I had laying around for the ladies in sum of my birthday suit lol," read a text sent May 30, court documents charge.
After a particularly crude message, Hurd wrote, "Oh ashanti ashanti ashanti, yes baby woooo."
Ashanti's publicist, Judy Katz, said she had no comment. "The authorities are handling the matter as we speak," she said.
Hurd's mother, Elvira Hurd, said all she knew about the case was that it involved Ashanti and that her son told her "it wasn't true."
"If he, in fact, sent the pictures maybe he was just caught up, like a lot of other young people his age, on the Internet," Hurd, 57, told the Daily News.
"I think it's much to do about nothing."
Hurd said her son - who has a 2001 marijuana bust on his record - is interested in music and talked to her about wanting to work in the music industry.
He earned his living selling cars, time shares and home alarm systems, she said.
She said she did not know if her son knew Ashanti or her family or how he could have gotten Tina Douglas' phone number.
The alleged stalker is charged with 28 misdemeanor counts of stalking and aggravated harassment and faces up to two years in prison if convicted at trial.

TYLER PERRY'S MOTHER PASSES
NEW LOWS FOR TIGER
The NY Daily News reports that more embarrassing messages that Tiger sent to one of his mistresses surfaced yesterday.
"I know it's brutal on you that you can't be with me all the time," he texted Rachel Uchitel.
"I get it. It f-----g kills me, too. I finally found someone I connect with."
He went on to tell Uchitel how she is "someone I have never found like this. Not even at home."
Oh....and now on to another low:
A spokesman for Playgirl says they have what appear to be nude photos of the Woods and they plan on publishing them if they can confirm they're the real deal.
"We were approached by a third party who wanted to know our 'interest level," Daniel Nardicio claims in several published reports. "Our lawyers are currently going over them, the source, the entire package."

He said that part of his lung was removed, and he will be seeing his surgeon next week.
"We had told a few people, we told my family, obviously. I even kept it from my staff at Real Sports," he said. "So I'm okay for the time being. I'm hoping they greenlight me to play golf again."
JANET TRIES TO GET THE ATTENTION OF THE SHUTTER BUG
After arriving from London on the last Eurostar train of the evening, Janet Jackson was spotted walking around Paris the following day hand-in-hand with a male pal in Les Halles. The singer took four friends to lunch at L'Epi d'Or, next door to the Christian Louboutin boutique. According to an eyewitness, Jackson and her group spent about two hours chatting animatedly at their table. Then she and her crew stopped by the Hermès flagship store where Jackson posed for pictures with staffers.

LALA & MELO HAVE FUN ON THE SLOPES
SHAUNIE GETS A BREAK...ON VH1
VH1 has teamed up with the wives and girlfriends of some of the NBA’s most elite players to give the viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the glamorous life of a professional basketball player’s wife in VH1’s original series, “Basketball Wives.” Production is set to begin on the series in December 2009. The eight-episode 30-minute series is set to premiere on March 15, 2010.
This series is about the insider life of the wives, girlfriends and a few ex-wives of some of the biggest ballers in the game. These ladies live the life. They drive the best cars, live in the biggest mansions, wear designer clothes and jewelry and only travel first class. But living the high life is not all glamour. In order to protect it, they have to deal with the jealousies and dramas of living in — and staying in — the inner circle. They must also keep the groupies at bay while their husbands and boyfriends are traveling on the road for over six months of the year playing ball all-the-while wondering if their spouses are being faithful to them.
The cast is filled with the wives and ex-wives of superstars
including Jennifer Williams (wife of Eric Williams), Evelyn Lozada (ex-fiancé of Antoine Walker), Mesha O’Neal (wife of Jermaine O’Neal), Royce Reed, Faith Rain (Udonis Haslem’s girlfriend) and Shaunie O’Neal (wife of Shaquille O’Neal) who will also serve as Executive Producer on the series.
“The public has an obvious fascination with the wives of star athletes. This series will show viewers not only the glamorous side of being a celebrity wife but also the challenges and hard work that go with it,” said Jeff Olde, Executive Vice President of Original Programming and Production. “The wives of star athletes form one of the most unique and exclusive groups of women in the world. You only have to look as far as the nearest headlines to see what sort of pressure they are up against to keep their relationships and their families together. These women truly have a strength formed by fire. We are thrilled that they are allowing us into their lives to see things through their lens and understand why their friendships and bonds make them a force to be reckoned with.”
“Having been around these remarkable women for several years, I have always recognized that behind every NBA star is a strong, exceptional woman, one who must deal with the unique challenges of being married to the game as well as the player. I am happy to be teaming with Shed Media and VH1 in bringing this entertaining and enlightening world to television,” stated Shaunie O’Neal, executive producer for “Basketball Wives” and wife of NBA superstar Shaquille O’Neal.
RIHANNA GETS NEW INK
It reads “Never a failure. Always a lesson” under her right collarbone. And it’s written in a mirror image in gray ink. Keith “Bang Bang” McCurdy of East Side Ink did it around 2am yesterday morning.
Speaking of Rihanna she was spotted sitting courtside Monday night at the Knicks game
ASHANTI BACK IN STRIDE
Ashanti introduced Designer of the Year Giuseppe Zanotti, and she took some time out from the evening to dish about her love for the shoe star. “I’ve been infatuated with Giuseppe since my first album. I’m so proud of him,” said the singer. The songstress, who is working on a new album, also recently inked a production deal and is busy at work producing a TV series. “I’m behind the scenes on this one. I might pop up [on the show] here and there, like Diddy or Trump, but I’m mostly behind the scenes,” she joked.
MORE TIGER DRAMA
There was a frantic 911 call Tuesday morning -- from his wife Elin Nordegren.
Authorities have released audio of the 2:30 a.m. call made by a woman with a Scandinavian accent, believed to be Nordegren, 29. Heard in the background: a crying baby, but no evidence of her husband Woods' presence in the house. (Listen to the call here.)
"Oh my god," she says in the tape. "My mom just collapsed." In the three minute conversation, a 911 operator talks an emotional female caller through the emergency. The caller says that her 57 year-old mother (believed to be Barbro Holmberg) "collapsed in the bathroom."
"She said she collapsed and she fainted ...and she's been down for a while," the caller explains, adding that she heard her mother's fall from elsewhere in the house and rushed to her side.
After the caller puts the phone down to check on her mother, the 911 operator seems to successfully calm her down. "I think we're fine," the caller says, telling the operator that the paramedics don't need to come after all. "It's not urgent," she says as the conversation winds down.
The operator notes that they'd prefer to visit and make sure that the situation is under control.
Earlier Tuesday, it was confirmed that Holmberg, 57, was in stable condition after being rushed to the hospital early Tuesday morning. A spokesperson said she is recovering nicely back at her daughter and son-in-law's home.
BEYONCE GOES ALL OUT FOR JAY
The 60-odd guests at the ’20s-themed fete included Kanye West and girlfriend Amber Rose, Sean Combs and Kim Porter (sidebar, they reported Kim as Diddy's girlfriend… when did that happen), Alex Rodriguez and Kate Hudson, Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys, Warner Music chief Lyor Cohen and designer Tory Burch, plus DJ Cassidy, who DJ’d for the party. Diddy gave a toast and Jay-Z’s friends also put together a video saying how much they love him. The festivities featured synchronized swimmers, fireworks and an impromptu performance of “Empire State of Mind” by Jay-Z and Keys. Sources say the whole thing lasted until 5 a.m. the next day.
Beyoncé capped the celebration off with a lobster surf-and-truf for guests at the luxury villa where she and Jay-Z were staying. Sounds like good times. No photos were allowed so no pics could be leaked but how did that photo of Kanye, Lyor and Tory get outSunday, December 06, 2009
RIHANNA HITS SNL
CHRIS RESPONDS
The only thing that really came out of it was that he also confirmed that Rihanna did in fact hear the “Changed Man” song he wrote and sang specifically for her. Chris said he actually played it for Rihanna the day he wrote it, and she cried.
GV Says: To that I say "So What!!!" OMG, you really had to have an interview to say that. He practically gleamed when he called her a liar. So petty....I guess its like he said he couldn't remember the incident at all. Really...I need these the two to hug it out because it's so painfully obvious they care about one another.
MORE COME OUT THE WOOD WORKS
Three more women say they have played a round with Tiger.
Two more blonds and a brunette were added to Tiger Woods' sultry scorecard Saturday - bringing the married father of two to six over par on his betrayed supermodel wife.
Sources told the Daily News that Manhattan clubgoer Cori Rist, 31, is yet another blond beauty who has hit the sheets with Tiger.
A Las Vegas cocktail waitress and aspiring model - Jamie Jungers - became the fifth woman linked to the golf pro Saturday.
Jungers, 26, reportedly hired an Orlando lawyer and prepared to dish her story to a British tabloid, RadarOnline.com reports.
Jungers wasn't the only Orlando woman to come out of the deep rough.
A sixth bedmate surfaced last night - a brunette who reportedly romped with Woods in a church parking lot and in his Florida mansion while his then-pregnant wife was away from home.
Mindy Lawton told the British tabloid The News of the World she carried on a year-long affair with Woods that began in the spring of 2006.
Rist and Woods allegedly met at the Manhattan club Butter last year and have been hooking up ever since.
"One thing led to another, and pretty soon Tiger was flying her to hook up with him on tour," the source said.
"Tiger would typically get a large suite at a hotel. Someone would book Cori an adjacent room, so she wouldn't be seen coming into his room," the source added.
Rist declined to comment.
Jungers, a busty head-turner, was unavailable for comment Saturday but updated her status on MySpace.com to say her mood was "anxious."
TMZ.com reported that Jungers and Woods started their affair in the golfer's suburban Orlando home in 2004 when she was 20years old.
Woods, 33, married his wife, Elin Nordegren, in October of that same year.
Lawton, 33, a manager at an Orlando-area Perkins restaurant, said the golfer strolled into the diner for a postround breakfast with pals one day.
Within a month, Lawton said, Woods called the restaurant asking her out on a date. They drank in a roped-off VIP area of a bar, the Blue Martini, after which she followed Tiger to his mansion.
'All he cared about was lust'
Over the next year, Lawton said Woods rendezvoused with her about every two weeks. They would meet in a parking lot before heading back to his home.
"All Tiger cared about was getting me into bed," she said. "There was very little emotion from his side although I fell for him.
"I thought I meant something to him, but all he cared about was lust. He is a selfish, heartless man."
Lawton's sister, Lynn, an Orlando grade-school teacher, told the Mail on Sunday that the golfer failed to practice safe sex with Mindy and "treated my sister like a piece of meat."
"My sister was just a little girl on an hourly wage. ... We knew what he wanted her for. But she wouldn't believe it," Lynn Lawton said.
The golf great's alleged stable of other women includes:
- Jaimee Grubbs, the only other woman to publicly admit having an affair with Woods, was also a star on VH1's "Tool Academy" and a saleswoman in a Studio City, Calif., store that sells medical marijuana. Grubbs recently disclosed her affair with the golf star to Us Weekly, providing photos and "racy" text messages Woods sent her. "Send me something very naughty," Woods reportedly wrote in one of them.
- Rachel Uchitel, the Manhattan woman who has denied sleeping with Tiger, is a VIP hostess at trendy nightclubs in the city and worked at several hot spots in Vegas.
- Kalika Moquin, 27, a Vegas nightclub executive also denies any affair.

TIGER TRYING TO HOLD IT TOGETHER
Supposedly he and his wife are holed up in their Florida mansion and undergoing intense marriage counseling several times a day.
Meanwhile, according to the Daily Beast.com, Nordegren is negotiating an immediate $5 million payout from her husband and revising her prenup, reported at $20 million at the time of their 2004 marriage, to give her as much as $55 million if she stays with her husband for two more years.
