Despite all the rumours flying around that one of Hollywood’s most favourite teenage couples (or most hated, depending on you who ask – i.e. crazy Beliebers who love to send Selena death threats), Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez continue to prove that their love remains strong.

During his stop in Paris, while on his promotional trip around Europe, Justin brought along girlfriend Selena, making time for some romance while in the City of Love yesterday. The young couple were spotted strolling down the street hand-in-hand, looking happier than ever. Take that, Mariah Yeater!

Justin shared the love with his fans as well, posting pictures on his instagram of sites around the city, with quips like:

It’s great that Justin and Selena aren’t letting all the rumours about secret babies and sex-capades get to them. Hopefully this means that the couple will fight through it all as long as they stick together. They might need that strength when the result of Justin’s paternity test comes in a couple weeks. Good luck!

Jaden and Willow Smith, the superstar children of Will and Jada Pinket Smith, are reportedly mentoring Michael Jackson’s kids Prince, Paris and Blanket.

Jaden, who has appeared in several films including ‘The Karate Kid’ remake, and Willow, best known for her hit single ‘Whip my Hair,’ were seen on a movie set in L.A. yesterday with Jackson’s children.

The whole meeting was allegedly set up by Katherine Jackson, Michael’s mother, to help nudge her grandchildren in a positive direction.

Sources close to Katherine say she believes the Smith children are prime examples of young success in Hollywood. They are both extremely talented and down-to-earth, and thinks the three children could learn a lot from them.

I’ll give her that – they do seem to have a very good head on their shoulders. And extremely cool to hang out with.

Katherine wants Michael’s kids to enjoy their childhood and is actively encouraging them to become involved in all kinds of activities, including acting or singing.

As we reported a few months back, Michael Jackson’s children were struggling with the loss of their father and had no one but their family to help them cope with the rough times.

Katherine Jackson said that although the kids were essentially friendless, that would change once they enrolled in a private school in September. Well, fast-forward to today and TMZ reports that Prince and Paris are ready to take the leap.

The two eldest of MJ’s kids (Prince, 13, and Paris, 12) began attending the prestigious Buckley School on Wednesday. Unlike his two siblings, 8-year-old Blanket will remain at home and receive private lessons, as Katherine feels that he’s still too young to be going to school.

A source tells TMZ that Prince wanted to go to the private school for “a social experience.”

Despite two risqué alum—Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian—hopefully this will be a positive experience for two of the late pop king’s kids.

Spending a day on the island playing in the water, the three kids tried to enjoy the time away. Although her two brothers seemed to be making the best of it, Paris was seen to be having a noticeably difficult time.

A source close to the Jackson family says,”Early on, Paris didn’t think she could live without her father … she just didn’t know how she was going to function. But [Katherine] has been so supportive of her that Paris is much better.”

The source says, “You have to remember that everybody in that family was suffering from grief, so Michael’s kids never felt alone in it,” continuing, “That helped them to become stronger.”

The family is schedule to be in Gary, Indiana on Friday afternoon, where a monument honouring Michael Jackson will be unveiled outside of the home where the singer grew up.

Nearly one year after his death, Michael Jackson’s mother Katherine has spoken out in an interview about her son and the well being of her grandchildren.

In an interview with the Daily Mirror, Katherine Jackson says that Michael’s three children, Paris, Prince and Blanket, are living very isolated lives.

“They don’t have any friends. They don’t go to school, they have private lessons at home – but that will change in September, when they are due to enrol at private college. But they have their cousins and aunts and uncles around them constantly, and that’s helped them immensely,” says Katherine.

“To them, it’s normal, it’s the life they have known. They have a certain time to go to bed, then they get up and get dressed for lessons. They practise karate and swim, which they love.”

Michael’s daughter Paris, 12, has turned her room into a shrine for her father, she is surrounded by pictures of her late Dad.

His sons Prince, 13, and Blanket, 8, speak regularly about wanting to make their father proud. Apparently all three children listen to Michael’s music regularly.

Planning a wedding is never easy. And planning a wedding with Katy Perry and Russell Brand couldn’t be harder.

But Perry already has a few ideas for the couple’s perfect day.

And according to MTV News, Perry revealed that she intends to keep the wedding quite small. They couple is also planning to host “a big, fat reception for the people who can’t make it,” to the ceremony.

“I always have a ton of people around me, and I think the people that are going to share this moment with us are the people we want to integrate into each other’s lives,” Perry said.

Among the important details of the wedding, Perry is focused on who will design her wedding dress.

“We have been kind of talking to [John] Galliano, because that was the first [fashion] show in Paris that we kind of came out as a couple,” Perry said. “So if we did Galliano, it would make it full circle.”

Another important detail is the location of the wedding. The couple is now considering shaking things up, and not hosting the wedding in Perry’s hometown of Santa Barbara, California, as originally planned.

“We don’t necessarily want it to be a drunk fest of people just, you know, one night and then forgetting about it,” Perry said. “We want it to be about the love. So sometimes to be about the love, we have to take them out of their comfort zone.”

Socialite PARIS HILTON is returning to the studio to record her second album – just a month after she was dropped by Warner Bros.

Hilton spent three years recording her self-titled debut album Paris, which hit stores last summer under Warner Bros and the reality TV star’s own label Heiress Records.

Last month, Warner announced it had no plans to release another album by Hilton after poor sales of Paris.

After her debut single Stars Are Blind reached no. 18 on the U.S. Billboard charts, her second single Nothing in This World barely registered on the charts, reaching No. 89 on the Billboard Hot 100 Pop Charts.

Her LP vanished after a brief appearance at No. 6 on the Billboard album charts after selling 77,000 copies.

Despite poor sales and a negative response from critics, Hilton is determined to keep on singing, saying, “I’m already working on my new record.”

Gay rights leaders in Los Angeles are calling on PARIS HILTON to explain herself after making a series of anti-gay and racial slurs in a video that began circulating in cyberspace last week.

The video, which appears to have been taken by an amateur videographer at a private party, shows Hilton referring to someone using the derogatory term “faggot” and describes herself and sister NICKY as “n**gas”.

And the leaders of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) are outraged by the footage.

They’re calling for Hilton make a public apology before the video gets wider play.

GLAAD President NEIL G. GIULIANO says, “When Paris Hilton utters these words into a camera, it creates a permanent record that… she must bear responsibility for.

“These are not frivolous words, and to use them as if they are gives tacit sanction to the racism and homophobia they engender. Hilton has an obligation to go on the record, explain herself, and publicly apologise to the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) and African American communities and all those offended by these slurs.”

Paris Hilton Website Shut Down

Posted on andPOP:

A website featuring PARIS HILTON’s personal belongings was shut down yesterday after the hotel heiress slapped the operators with a federal lawsuit.

Parisexposed.com launched on January 23 and allowed visitors to view the STARS ARE BLIND singer’s medical records, personal diaries and home videos for a fee.

The site claimed the items were auctioned off after Hilton failed to pay the rent on a Los Angeles-based storage container.

In a lawsuit filed Monday, Hilton claimed the items were put in storage two years ago when she and her sister moved house after being burglarized and that the moving company was told to pay the storage fees.

Hilton’s lawyer, GREGORY KORN, said she could be in danger because some of the personal information, such credit card receipts and Hilton’s passport, could be used to steal her identity or provide information to potential stalkers.

The lawsuit alleged defendants NABIL and NABILA HANISS of Culver City, California, paid $2,775 for the items which were then sold to BARDIA PERSA for $10 million (?5.25 million), who created Parisexposed.com.

Hilton’s publicist ELLIOTT MINTZ claims the dispute is not over adding, “She wants her things back. Her possessions are still in the hands of strangers.”

PARIS HILTON is suing the website that has published naked photos of her, in an attempt to shut it down.

Visitors to ParisExposed.Com are able to pay to view raunchy snaps, home videos, diary entries and pictures of the heiress’ passport and personal belongings, obtained from a storage container.

The items were sold at auction by the storage firm, who claimed its fees hadn’t been paid for two years – but Hilton alleges a removal company was supposed to pay.

The “shocked and surprised” 25-year-old claims the belongings were put into storage in 2005 after she and sister NICKY moved out of a house that had been burgled.

A court statement from Hilton, part of a lawsuit filed yesterday in Los Angeles, reads, “I was appalled to learn that people are exploiting me and my sisters’ private personal belongings for commercial gain.”

Hilton is calling for the closure of the website on the grounds it invades her privacy and exposes her and Nicky to people who could “to steal my identity, or even worse, to harass or stalk me.”

She has filed copyright registrations for three writings among her belongings, and accuses the website of copyright infringement.

The lawsuit alleges the items were bought by NABIL and NABILA HANISS for $2,775 and sold to BARDIA PERSA for $10 million.
