The all-singing and dancing hit series Glee is arguably the hottest thing on television right now. In recent weeks, series star Lea Michele has been hit by tabloid reports that her sudden surge in stardom is beginning to go to her head — and her behavior at this week’s Times 100 Gala has done little to thwart such chatter. According to spywitnesses, the brunette powerhouse — who was named one of the publication’s 100 Most Influential People just last week — spent the entire dinner making out with her boyfriend…..While people were eating, mind you. Brain bleach!
In fact, Lea was so engrossed in playing tonsil hockey with the BF, she made no time for any of the other high-profile guests and when legendary celebrity photographer Patrick McMullan floated over to take her picture, let’s just say things got tense:

You know what's awesome? Cookie dough ice cream. But when it comes to the smartphone market, the 18-month-old, steadily-growing Android platform is equally wondrous. Sure, Google may have a tiny bit of catching up to do when compared with Apple's market share, but at least Android users are already spoiled with a handful of good Twitter apps. Better yet, Twitter has now thrown in its official app to spice up the competition, so we thought it'd be interesting to put it head-to-head against the third-party clients. Read on to find out if we have a winner.
Let's start off with a quick introduction to each of the Twitter clients that we'll be comparing, but do bear with us while we give the newcomer a slightly longer rundown:

There's still no official word on whether HP's Slate has been canned, but the more we hear about ExoPC's slate, the more we think it could be a pretty stellar Win 7 tablet option. The company's founder just told us that the tablet is slated (pun intended, good sirs) for a September 7 launch date in the US, Canada and France, and that the 32GB version will retail for $599. As for the specs, the capacitive 11.6-inch tablet will still be using an Atom N450 processor, but will be paired with Broadcom's Crystal HD card to enable 1080p playback. And that's not all, they also sent us some more shots of the ExoPC UI Layer, and the interface appears to be incredibly sleek -- it looks like you can even save web shortcuts to a Connect Four type layout. There will also be an app store, and the dev kit will be available at the end of June. That's all beautiful, but hear us out, ExoPC: we're counting on you to put an end to the Win 7 tablet vaporware trend, okay?

Singaporean photographer Leslie Kee took many photos of big stars like Aaron Kwok, Cecilia Cheung, Shawn Yu, Daniel Wu, etc. He photographed many controversial sexy photos of them. This time Leslie posted a photo of him and Cecilia Cheung on his website. In the photo, Cecilia was topless and only her adhesive bra was shown. Her hair style and make-up resembled the one in Leslie's official photo album, seems like this is a behind the scene photo.
Leslie is releasing a new photo album soon featuring Angelababy, Edison Chen, and Shawn Yu, etc. Netizens criticized Leslie for using Ceclia before she give birth to second child on Mother's Day. No comment from Leslie at the moment.

We’re back with another schedule wrap-up article for May, and this is definitely a month that any music fan isn’t going to want to miss. After all, fans have been anticipating this month as early as the beginning of April due to the fierce competition between the artists that returned in April and those that’ll be making a splash this month. We’ve already got Rain, Lee Hyori, 2PM and more duking it out on the music charts, but it’s only getting hotter from here!

Opera Software already caused quite a stir with the release of the iPhone version of its browser, and it looks like it's now starting to make itself heard in one of the biggest browser-related debates going. Speaking with Tech Radar, Opera's product analyst Phillip Grønvold started out with something of a diplomatic approach by saying that "today's internet content is dependent on Flash" and "if you remove Flash you do not have today's internet," and for that reason Opera needs to support Flash. Things get a bit more interesting from there, however, with Grønvold stating that while Flash has its place for things like dynamic content, it "makes very little sense" as a video container given the impact on processor and battery usage, adding that "you can cook an egg on [devices] once you start running Flash on them and there's a reason for that." Fried eggs, potatoes -- these browsers sure are making us hungry.

It seems as though this image was sent to every blog on the internet, so we thought…why not throw our watermark on it too? It looks like the HTC EVO 4G — exclusively available from Sprint — will be available for pre-order later this month from everyone’s favorite electronics vendor…The Shack? At its CTIA launch the EVO was scheduled for a “summer” release and, judging by this latest tidbit of information, it would appear as though that timeline is still good. What do you think? Will anyone be pre-ordering an EVO from The Shack, or will you be holding out to get yours directly from Sprint?

An innocent copy of Microsoft Office, left lying on the pavement? You'd pick it up wouldn't you, dreaming of eBay riches. This is what happens if you pick that bloody yellow box up.
Let it be a lesson for you all.

So you go and pre-order the Archos 7 Home Tablet, thinking it would ship by the end of April. Our deepest apologizes, but according to the official press release below, the 7-inch, Android 1.6 tablet won't be shipping in the US until early June -- though an Archos spokesperson told us that those who pre-ordered may get units before the end of May if they count their lucky stars. The rest of the release doesn't reveal much, but does confirms that the resistive touchscreen device won't have access to the Android Marketplace. Instead -- and as you can see in the unboxing pictures below -- it comes with Archos' AppsLib store and is preloaded with a few apps, including eBuddy and Aldiko's e-reader software. Still, we know the $199.99 tablet sounds tempting, but our review should be up in the next few days. In other words, you should probably hold off on sliding that credit card out -- after all, she ain't shipping 'til June.

Nike is making millions from its Apple-friendly wares, designed to turned technophiles into fitness freaks. Imagine the possibilities if the iPhone could not only track your running stride but also monitor your heart rate while doing it. That's one of a suite of potential uses for this patent app from Apple, a Seamlessly Embedded Heart Rate Monitor. The design is for a series of electrodes that are, well, seamlessly embedded into the shell of a given device in such a way that they are "not visibly or haptically distinguishable on the device." The device could then, with a touch, measure heart-rate, uniquely identify a user, and even "determine the user's mood from the cardiac signals." Just imagine the new flood of EKG-related apps: iPalpitate, Murmur Maker, Cardiac Arrest... the possibilities are endless.
Two summers ago, Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight broke all kinds of records with its $158 million opening weekend. Now Marvel is trying to beat that number with a sequel of its own. But will the Jon Favreau’s Iron Man 2 be able to surpass the mania surrounding The Dark Knight? Many prognosticators think so. And with the Robert Downey Jr.-toplined movie opening in a massive 4,380 locations, the screen availability is certainly there to help Iron Man 2 surpass Dark Knight‘s record. (Dark Knight opened in 4,366 theaters, by comparison.) But where Dark Knight scored glowing reviews, critics aren’t all that hot on Iron Man 2. (Our own Lisa Schwarzbaum gave the movie a C+.) Still, the movie is swallowing up everything in its path, so this weekend’s grosses will be interesting to watch — whether Iron Man‘s sequel turns out to be a record-breaker.
A San Mateo County judge on Thursday refused to consider a request by media organizations to learn the justification police used to search a Gizmodo editor's home for information about the sale of a possible iPhone prototype. 
A judge offered praise to Chris Brown this morning for adhering to the terms of the suspended sentence resulting from his brutal attack on Rihanna last year.
Microsoft on Tuesday will issue two critical bulletins that will fix vulnerabilities in Windows and Office, which if exploited successfully, could allow a remote attacker to take control of the computer, the company said Thursday.
Singer Lee JungHyun is currently work on signing on to Lady Gaga’s agency. For that, she has headed to the States for a top secret meeting with Lady Gaga’s agency.
Viter Fan “First Night” crisis has caused endless headaches for everyone involved in his new drama 就是要香戀 (roughly translates to Just Want a Sweet Love). The production denied rumors that their investors wanted out due to Fan’s poor image. They stressed the cast is currently busy filming, and they will soon travel to Vietnam to film on location. CTV confirmed yesterday that the drama will be Down With Love’s successor after it finishes its run.
Is Microsoft using Internet Explorer 9 as a tool for force users to upgrade from Windows XP?
Kris Allen fans have been waiting for months for an announcement about a followup single to his platinum-selling debut ditty, “Live Like We’re Dying.” But the recent decision by Jive/19 to serve radio with a recut rendition of “The Truth” — it’s now a duet with Train frontman Pat Monahan that’s slated to hit iTunes on May 11 — has met with its fair share of controversy. I caught up with the American Idol season 8 champ to find out who cooked up the idea for a reconfigured track, how the duet came about, and whether or not he’s upset that despite having cowritten nine of the 12 tracks on his self-titled disc, his label has now chosen two singles he didn’t have a hand in writing. (For the uninitiated, both versions of “The Truth,” with and without Monahan, are embedded after the jump.)
Back when Google announced the first Nexus One for T-Mobile we all tried to figure out what their intentions were concerning selling hardware in their online store. Verizon was announced as a planned carrier at the same time and then we saw Nexus Ones for AT&T and Sprint also announced and understood they wanted to have a single device available across all four major US wireless carriers so that people could buy a device and stick with their carrier. The AT&T version is now available with the T-Mobile version while the Verizon version has been dropped with the HTC Droid Incredible taking its place. With the Sprint HTC EVO 4G becoming available in June we now have to wonder if the Sprint Nexus One will also be dropped soon.
As we reported yesterday, B.o.B steps aside this week, making way for Usher‘s “OMG,” to sit pretty at No. 1 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 singles chart. B.o.B’s “Nothin’ on You” now is No. 2, while Rihnna’s “Rude Boy” backs into No. 3.
