Ke$ha Blasts Britney Spears

3/04/2010 12:47:00 AM kenmouse , Posted in , , , 0 Comments

SINGER Ke$ha has launched a scathing attack at Britney Spears.

The Tik Tok hitmaker — who featured on Britney’s track Lace And Leather — doesn’t like the fact Spears lip-syncs during her concerts.

“I think that’s bulls***,” she said. “I don’t think that’s fair at all for people who are going to see the show. I think if you are going to be a singer, you should sing. If you are going to be a dancer, you should dance.

“If you are going to do a combination of the two, you should make it very clear when you are singing and very clear when you are dancing. I would never do that to my fans.

“No offense to her specifically but people have asked me before to mime. I have been up at three in the morning for a television show with jet lag but I refuse to mime.

Idol: Lee DeWyze and Alex Lambert Step It Up

Last-minute change of plans: The top 10 men sang instead of the women — Crystal Bowersox had been sent to the hospital, but Seacrest didn’t say why. Instead he asked Ellen if she ever missed a show and she said, yes, American Gladiators and Bewitched. I like it when she delivers dippy little jokes. He then asked Simon which sex had the edge among the top 20, and Simon said it was the girls by “a smidge.”


Best of the night was Lee DeWyze, singing Hinder’s “Lips of an Angel.” I’m not sure if his rock-blues growl has a genuine kick to it, or if his style actually bores me silly, but he seems to understand how to carry a song from start to finish — possibly the only one of the guys who really does.

“I can hear you on the radio — right now,” said Kara. Simon told him, “You are head and shoulders” above the other guys, and may in fact “be the one to beat.”

The judges were also unanimously happy with Michael Lynche. He sang James Browns’s “This Is a Man’s World” to prove he was (in his words) “the main event” and not (Simon’s words) a mere intro act.

Fan Bingbing to Replace S. Korean Song Hye-kyo in Chen Kaige Film

3/04/2010 12:46:00 AM kenmouse , Posted in , , , 0 Comments

Chinese actress Fan Bingbing is confirmed to replace South Korean star Song Hye-kyo for the leading role in Director Chen Kaige's upcoming historical drama, "Zhao's Orphan".


The replacement came a month after the film's production team announced that Song Hye-kyo was in talks for the role of female lead.

Despite claims of a normal cast shuffle, the incident led to a row over the recent statement by Song Hye-kyo's agent company denying that the star had ever received any invitation from the film's production crew or even met Director Chen in person. The statement also warned South Korea's domestic media to be cautious with the publicity stunt tactics of China's showbiz.

Coby $85 smartbook feels like a hundred bucks (hands-on)

3/04/2010 12:46:00 AM kenmouse , Posted in , , 0 Comments


Funny how our tune on smartbooks totally changes when one's got an $85 price tag. We happened upon Coby's booth at CeBIT this morning and of all the fairly cheap feeling laptops the company had on display it was its 7-inch NBPC722 smartbook that cozied right up to us. Okay, so it isn't as thin or attractive as the $499 Lenovo's Skylight, but again let us remind you that it costs about as much as a couple of new printer ink cartridges. Inside the little guy packs a 624MHz Marvell PXA303 processor, 2GB of flash storage and runs Windows CE which all should be good enough for some light Web browsing and e-mail writing. There was actually a YouTube shortcut on the desktop, but the NBPC722 wasn't connected to try it out. Apparently this inexpensive laptop should be making its way stateside this spring, but until the flowers start blooming you've got the video below.

Ethan Ruan explains hotel stay with mystery woman

3/04/2010 12:43:00 AM kenmouse , Posted in , , 0 Comments

Taiwanese model-turned-actor Ethan Ruan claimed that nothing happened between him and the woman he was spotted with at the Windsor Hotel Taichung in Taipei on Sunday.

Reporters spotted Ruan booking a suite at the hotel and heading up with a mystery woman. The pair did not leave till the following afternoon. Ruan paid the bill with his own credit card.

The 27-year-old actor told reporters in Taiwan on Tuesday that the woman was actually a friend's girlfriend and pointed out that while he did stay in the same hotel suite with her, they slept separately.

"That day, I was with a group of friends at a lounge run by a friend. We enjoyed ourselves till five in the morning. I did not drink much. Because it was late, my friend could not see his girlfriend home. I also did not have my house key and did not want to wake my mother, therefore I decided to stay at a hotel," explained Ruan.

Megan Fox: 'I've only ever slept with two men and the idea of a one-night stand makes me sick'

3/03/2010 02:43:00 PM kenmouse , Posted in , , , 0 Comments

She's arguably one of the sexiest women in the world and could make many a red blooded male fall under her spell with the click of a finger.


But Megan Fox says her public persona as a highly sexed man-eater is totally at odds with her private life.

In a no-holds-barred interview, the 23-year-old actress reveals the thought of a one-night stand makes her sick and insists she has slept with just two men.

Apart from her current boyfriend, ex-Beverly Hills 90210 actor Brian Austin Green, Fox says she’s only ever been with one other man - her childhood sweetheart.
