Brangelina break up? Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie meet lawyers to divide fortune, share custody: report

Say it ain't so - Brangelina might soon be just Brad and Angelina.



The Hollywood power couple is headed for splitsville, London's News of the World reported Saturday.

Citing sources, the paper says Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have met with California divorce lawyers and have agreed to divide their vast fortune.

In legal papers signed this month, the world's most famous couple has also agreed to share custody of their six kids, sources say.

"The document was signed in early January," a source told the British tabloid.

How will SAG Awards impact who wins the Oscars?

Well, it sure didn't matter that Paramount and Columbia spent a pile sending DVD screeners of "Up in the Air" and "Julie & Julia" to nearly all 100,000 SAG Awards voters. George Clooney and Meryl Streep lost to Jeff Bridges and Sandra Bullock even though Fox Searchlight and Warner Bros. didn't blitz Screen Actors Guild members with discs of "Crazy Heart" and "The Blind Side."



That tells us Oscarologists what formidable candidates Bridges and Bullock are as they head toward the Oscars. It's clear that one of them — Bridges — now looks like an inevitable Oscar champ. Maybe Bullock too, but her bout with Meryl Streep isn't over yet. Maybe SAG voters ventured from Streep this year because they just hailed her with their lead-actress prize last year ("Doubt"). Streep hasn't won an Oscar for 27 years and academy members know that she's overdue. She may hold the record for most nominations (15), but she's only won one and a half times ("Sophie's Choice" in lead, "Kramer vs. Kramer" in supporting).

Sandra Bullock Thanks Her Hot Husband After SAG Awards Win

Is there an Oscar in her future?

Sandra Bullock continued her awards-show winning streak, picking up the trophy for outstanding performance by a female leading actor for The Blind Side at Saturday's Screen Actors Guild Awards.

"If this were only not televised so I could use the appropriate words I'm feeling right now," Bullock, who won the same award at last weekend's Golden Globes, said. "I'm Sandra Bullock, and I'm an actor and I'm so proud to say that in a room full of faces that have inspired me."

The actress also paid loving – and humorous – tribute to her husband, Jesse James, from the podium at L.A.'s Shrine Auditorium.

"You get dressed up in monkey suits and you sit at a table with people you don't know," she said. "And I leave you there, and then you come back with, like, Morgan Freeman's e-mail [address]. I don't know how you do it. I love you so much, and you're really hot. And I want you so much!"

Apple's Next iPhone Must Wow to Win

Analysis: The competition is getting stiffer, and the next model can't be an incremental update if Apple wants to keep its crown.



The arrival of Google's Nexus One smartphone is like the Beatles following Elvis Presley. Elvis revolutionized music and retained his immortal status, but The Beatles were great in their own right. The technological advantage that Apple had when it introduced the iPhone is diminishing (think Fat Elvis). And so the next iPhone will need to be another game-changer for Apple to remain on top.

With the original iPhone, Apple addressed the shortcomings that most devices in the category had with fresh, innovative ideas. Initially, there were many second rate imitators, but now, products including the Palm Pre and Nexus One match if not surpass the iPhone in numerous ways.

New Pictures of "Hot Summer days" revealed : Tatoo Artist Shawn Yue wooes DaS but gets rejected

Some new pictures of "Hot summer Days" appeared ; this movie will showcast romantic stories between superstars from mainland, Taiwna and Hong Kong, but even if the stories of the ten stars bravely chasing after love is exciting and refreshing, what makes people even more surprised is that there will be stars who will only appear for a few minutes just for a few lines, just like Shawn Yue who appears in a tattoo shop and "with a few strokes" acting out his love for DaS. And in the summer days beach, among all the people wearing bikinis, Charlene Choi will appear just for 2 lines..



Because the directors Wing Shya and Tony Chen ??? both have great relationship with stars, they could make this "Hot Summer Days" aka "The whole city will be in Love" a real "The whole city mobilisation" as as soon as Charlene heard of this movie starting filming, Charlene personnally complained to the directors " why didn't you look for me ?! Is it that my acting isn't good enough ?! "without knowing that they already planned for a comedic "beach hot girls fighting for icecream" scene.

Justin Timberlake Says 'Hallelujah' Was A Perfect 'Fit' For Haiti Telethon

'Hopefully there will continue to be a lot of different ways that everyone can help,' he says after 'Hope for Haiti Now.'

When Justin Timberlake was asked to perform on Friday night's "Hope for Haiti Now" telethon, he didn't hesitate to say yes — and he knew exactly what song he was going to perform.

"Obviously, I was going to help answer phones and help make donations," Timberlake told MTV News. "But as soon as I got that call, all of a sudden ... it was kind of like a big highlighted neon-green [light], everywhere I looked: 'Hallelujah, hallelujah.' "

Timberlake and his former "Mickey Mouse Club" castmate Matt Morris performed Leonard Cohen's 1984 track "Hallelujah" for the telethon. In the years since its release, "Hallelujah" has snowballed in popularity, in part because it's been covered by many musicians — John Cale, Rufus Wainwright and former "American Idol" hopeful Jason Castro, to name a few. Jeff Buckley's version, which appeared on his 1994 album Grace, topped the Hot Digital Songs chart in 2008, after Castro's cover aired on "Idol." Later that year, Alexandra Burke, winner of the Simon Cowell-masterminded U.K. talent show "The X Factor," topped that country's charts with her own version.

'Hope for Haiti' raises $58 million and counting

Friday night's star-studded "Hope for Haiti" telethon has raised a record-breaking $58 million, with more donations continuing to pour in from around the world, the benefit's organizers announced Saturday.



The preliminary figure is a record for donations made by the public through a disaster relief telethon, according to a news release from telethon organizers.

Additionally, the "Hope for Haiti Now" album, a compilation of the night's musical performances made available on Apple's iTunes, was the No. 1 album in 18 countries Saturday. Sales figures for iTunes are still being calculated, and the preliminary figure of $58 million does not include donations from corporations or large private donors.

People will be able to make donations to "Hope for Haiti" via phone, Web, text messaging and regular mail for the next six months, according to the news release.

Kristen Stewart Befriends Strippers, Hates Boredom!

We had the pleasure of interviewing one of our fave girls on the planet, Kristen Stewart, earlier today at the Sundance premiere of her film Welcome to the Rileys.

K.Stew looked Park City chic, bundled in a green jacket with her dark Joan Jett hair loosely pulled back, and was eager to talk about one of the roles she claimed to be most proud of. In WTTR, Kristen plays a "working girl," as she prefers to say, making it clear to her fans out there she's not just Bella Swan from Twilight.

Read on to hear Kristen talk about befriending strippers, what bores her, and how she freaked out before taking it all off onscreen...

Everyone is raving about your performance—how did you prepare for this particular, shall we say, slightly more risqué role?

"Umm, Jake [Scott, the director] had a lot to do with my preparation and understanding of the type of person I was playing, and his serious regard of sensitivity towards those people. I play a girl who has sort of been stripped of any choice and really stripped of any normal upbringing. Like she couldn't establish who she was because of things that have happened to her and she became a 'working girl,' if you want to call it that.

'Avatar' still on top; 'Legion' grabs second slot

Looks like its gonna be a rough weekend for new releases. Early estimates for Friday show Avatar back on top yet again, adding another $9 million to its cumulative haul. Legion, from Sony’s Screen Gems division, performed best of the new releases, with the sci-fi thriller starring Paul Bettany and Dennis Quaid scoring an estimated $6.7 million for the day. Third place belonged to holdover The Book of Eli, which grossed close to $5 million in its second Friday in theaters. And it doesn’t look like kids are buying The Rock as The Tooth Fairy. The PG-rated comedy starring Dwayne Johnson earned only $3.4 million on its opening day for a fourth place slot. Number five belonged to The Lovely Bones, which garnered an additional $2.6 million for the day.

Meanwhile, CBS Films looks like its going to be asking for a do-over on their debut film from the new company. Extraordinary Measures, with Harrison Ford and Brendan Fraser, landed in the sixth slot with only $2 million for the day. Check back tomorrow for a full weekend report.

Nokia N900 Android dual-boot hack [Video]

Nokia’s N900 is undoubtedly a tempting smartphone, but the Maemo 5 OS it runs still comes across as an enthusiast’s platform rather than a consumer-ready one. Thankfully one such enthusiast has decided to tinker with the ARM-based N900 itself, and the end result is a handset that can dual-boot both Maemo and Android.




Brandon Roberts is the man responsible for the dual-booting marvel, and while he’s describing it more as a proof of concept right now than a workable solution, from what little is shown in the video he’s come a decent way. The keyboard seems to work, and the display is running at the N900’s WVGA resolution; a boot menu allows you to choose between Maemo and Android.

How Google's Nexus One censors cuss words

Some of you who have been basking in the beauty of your new Nexus One Googlephone may not have tried out all of its delightful features.

And what I am about to tell you may lead you to utter some naughty words. Please, go ahead. I have heard them all, in several different languages. And I respect the vehemence of the vernacular.

However, your Nexus One will not be so charmed by the vigor of your tongue. It will, dare I utter the word when referring to a product from the newly emancipated Google, censor you.

You see, the pungently polite people at Reuters were playing with their Nexus One when they noticed something about its built-in voice-to-text feature.

Every time they said something naughty into the phone, the naughty word came out as "####"--and not just "f---." It even censored the "S" part of BS.

Frankie Loves Daughter to Death; Kenix Will Continue to Have Children


With the birth of their daughter, Frankie Lam and Kenix Kwok changed a lot. Recently, Frankie and Kenix, along with their newborn baby, sat down for an interview with “Mingpao Weekly” magazine – showing the great happiness of this now “three person” family. Though Frankie has hired a “sitter” to help Kenix out with the baby, he himself is also taking 2 months off from work to take care of mother and daughter. In fact, he is already showing his good “parenting” skills, as he personally gives his daughter a bath, feeds her, as well as burps her; Kenix even revealed that Frankie is so in love with his daughter that he kisses the baby from head to toe.

This loving father is also a very considerate husband – when Kenix was still in the hospital after having the baby, she had to stay in bed and wasn’t able to get up, even to shower. Everyday, Frankie would go to the hospital to help his wife bathe and sometimes would even squat on the floor to help wash her feet. For Frankie, the joy of becoming a father is a priceless treasure – now, every time he drives outside, he notices how beautiful the world is.

Adam Lambert Crushes on Chace Crawford, Teases Guest-Starring Gigs

For a few hours a couple weeks ago, there was a rumor that said Adam Lambert would appear on Glee. It was quickly shot down.



However, the singer has made it clear he'd be open to appearing on various TV shows, especially if he could gaze into the eyes of a certain shaggy-haired CW star on one of them.

“As long as I can do a scene opposite Chace Crawford, I’d be happy,” the former American Idol runner-up recently said. “I just want a couple moments where I can just look and be like, hmmmm. Just some eye contact and I’ll be really happy.”

Has Demi had some Moore airbrushing? Now actress gets boosted bust (and more) in perfume ad

She recently denied claims she'd had a chunk of her hip airbrushed away on the cover of a U.S. magazine.



But now it looks like Demi Moore will be facing fresh question over a new perfume ad in which she appears to have been heavily photoshopped.

An original picture of the 47-year-old actress, posted on Twitter by husband Ashton Kutcher last March, shows the actress reclining in a near-identical pose to the ad.

Kutcher, 31, took the behind-the-scenes snap during the shoot last year. But in the campaign pictures - for a new Helena Rubinstein perfume - Demi has been overhauled.

Empire Building: Visualizing Google, Microsoft, Apple, and Yahoo

It's no secret that Google, Microsoft, Apple, and Yahoo are always expanding their reaches, slowly but surely adding new products and services into their line-ups. The New York Times's Nick Bilton took a step back and surveyed their empires.



It doesn't come as much of a surprise to see how much these four behemoths overlap, and I doubt anyone will be surprised when these companies continue to fill in this grid in 2010.

Tablet launch, earnings mean big week for Apple

Few events can steal the thunder from an Apple Inc quarterly earnings day -- an Apple product launch is one of them.

The company releases quarterly results on Monday, but Wall Street is waiting for Wednesday, when Apple could unveil a new tablet computer that investors hope will be as huge a phenomenon as its iconic iPod and iPhone.

The week could provide a pair of long-term catalysts for Apple's stock. But the company's shares often sell off right after major launches after months of rumor fuel big expectations.

Little is known about the device, despite a rabid fan following speculating on everything from the component makers to its shape and form. Industry watchers are bullish. They say Apple's obsession to detail gives the so-called "iSlate" a big edge in a computer category that had been deemed a failure.

"If Apple is going to design a product, then it's going to be the best design in the marketplace," said Broadpoint Amtech analyst Brian Marshall. "To bet that it's going to be a flop is a bad bet."

Most analysts have not factored the tablet into estimates for fiscal 2010, but sell-siders have been busy lifting price targets on Apple's stock in the past month.

Wonder Girls’ new member Hae Lim revealed!

Just hours ago, JYP Entertainment released an official statement that Wonder Girls member Mimi (Sunmi) would be leaving the group to fulfill her academic goals.

She has been training at the JYP Academy for three years and she is fluent in four languages: English, Korean, Mandarin and Cantonese.

Cassies voice their support for TVXQ to Ellen Degeneres

A couple of days ago, actress, TV host, and comedian Ellen DeGeneres left a blog post on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show‘ website asking people for international music suggestions. Ever since the post went up, TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki’s fanbase, strong>Cassiopeia, has bombarded the site with recommendations for TVXQ!

Cassies left comments on her site stating things such as, “TVXQ! Reason why you’ll love them? Simple. Because they’re all-in-one package” (Nabila Ghaisani). Hopefuls even commented, “Cassiopeians would rush to their televisions if they heard that DBSK would be appearing on your show!” (Username Milk). And although other idol bands such as SS501, Big Bang and 2PM were also suggested, the power of the Cassies seemed to overwhelm the Triple S, VIPs, and the Hottests combined!

Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston Reunite at "Hope for Haiti"

Awkward alert! Former spouses Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston joined forces on Friday to raise money for survivors of the Haiti earthquake.



It was only the second time since they announced their separation in January 2005 that Aniston, 40, and Pitt, 46 have been confirmed to be in the same place at the same time. (The one-time power couple, who married in July 2000, had their divorce finalized in October 2005.)

The first time was at the 2009 Academy Awards, in which Aniston presented, while Pitt and his partner, Angelina Jolie, sat in the audience. But despite the long-awaited meeting, multiple sources at the time told UsMagazine.com the former lovers did not cross paths.

Listen Leighton Meester “Your Love Is A Drug”

The Gossip Girl star debuted her Robin Thicke-assisted lead single, “Somebody to Love,” in November, without much success. Nonetheless, TV’s Blair Waldorf is giving things another go with her second single, “Your Love’s A Drug.”

Rock It or Drop It?


HTC Supersonic get its screen shot?

We received this photo from a new tipster and are posting it for informational purposes as we haven’t confirmed if it’s the real deal or not. With that said, check out the carrier — T-Mobile — and the firmware version: Android 3.0.



PS3 finally properly hacked?

In a post titled "Hello hypervisor, I'm geohot," hacker George Hotz (already known in the iPhone community) has made a strong claim: that he has cracked the PS3. The system has remained (mostly) uncompromised for over three years now, with a few exceptions here and there. But, this one pledges full read/write access to the entire system memory and complete control over the processor -- all without a mod chip. Has he really done it, if so how, and what comes next? That all remains to be seen. This exploit supposedly "isn't really patchable, but [Sony] can make implementations much harder," meaning he isn't tipping his hat until he's ready, because once he does the never-ending firmware update war begins, and as we've seen on the PSP, Sony can really knock out those updates.

Aimee Lee Lucas reveals her take on G-Dragon concert scandal

After all the craziness that has been the now infamous “G-Dragon dry humping incident” at G-Dragon’s solo concert, the girl who costarred in the act, Aimee Lee Lucas, has shared her opinion on the whole scandal!



In an interview with “youoffendmeyouoffendmyfamily,” Lucas expressed her surprise at the outrage.

“I was shocked when I heard what was happening … We performed two shows on a Saturday and Sunday. All the VIPs and big people came out on Saturday and no one said anything. During rehearsals, no one told us we were going too far and should hold back. So the reaction was surprising.”

Not a surprising statement since it wasn’t fans who were at against the performance, but rather people who saw the pictures and fancams after the event.
