PUSSYCAT DOLLS star NICOLE SCHERZINGER was taken on a tour of her boyfriend LEWIS HAMILTON's hometown - because he wanted to show her landmarks from his childhood. The singer recently posted a video tribute to the British Formula 1 ace on YouTube.com declaring her love for the sports star after he lifted the 2008 World Title following a nerve-wracking race at the Brazilian Grand Prix on Sunday (02Nov08).
The footage showed Scherzinger blowing kisses to the camera and saying, "Congratulations, baby! I love you, I love you, I love you." And now Hamilton has taken his American-born partner back to his former home in Stevenage in Hertfordshire, south east England, to share his childhood memories with the star and thank her for her support.
He says, "Nicole has been incredible. She has been so supportive and I'm crazy about her. I wanted to show her where I grew up. I drove past where I was baptised, past my school and then stopped outside my old house. I have happy memories of the town." The pair has been dating since they met in November (07).
She rages, "How dare you disrespect the queendom? I've never been so disgusted in all of my life... (You can) kiss my black placenta. "Every relationship I've ever been in was because I loved the person dearly and was dedicated to us exclusively for a number of years. "The fathers of my children are my brothers and friends. We have a great deal of respect for one another and always will... Would it look better to marry and divorce and marry again? Would that be morally correct?"
R&B star CIARA is inspired to succeed by America's basketball stars. The 23-year-old feels motivated after watching sports games and ploughs the extra energy into her music career. She tells Men's Health magazine, "I take my motivation from athletes basketball players in particular.
"I love LeBron James because he's my age and full of ambition and drive. I love Michael Jordan… there was so much pressure, but he pulled through every time. That energy motivates me. "When it comes to my career, there's nothing more exciting than being successful at the highest possible level."
PARIS HILTON has vowed never to set foot on another Learjet aircraft after her pals TRAVIS BARKER and ADAM 'DJ AM' GOLDSTEIN almost lost their lives in a plane crash last month (Sep08). The socialite admits she occasionally flies to Las Vegas in the same type of plane Barker and Goldstein were onboard when it failed to clear an airport runway in South Carolina on 19 September (08).
Four people died in the tragedy and the two stars were hospitalised with severe burn injuries. News of the horror crash stunned Hilton, who was onboard a plane bound for Milan, Italy at the time - and now she's seriously rethinking her own travel plans. She says,
"I couldn't believe it... I'm scared to go on small airplanes now. Sometime in Vegas, I've been on that sort of plane and now I'll never go on one again."
Hilton reveals she has been texting her friend DJ AM ever since he arrived back in Los Angeles last week (beg22Sep08) - and she's so relieved he'll be OK. She adds, "I love him, I've been friends with Adam for over 10 years now... He's such a good person... I wish him the best."
DANITY KANE star AUBREY O'DAY turned down sex with a hot male model - because he couldn't spell. The sexy blonde recently fell for the unnamed hunk and decided to get intimate with him at the beginning of a lonely night - but his texting turned her off. She tells Complex magazine,
"He's been trying to get with me for a while and the other night I was so lonely, I was like, 'Screw it, maybe I'll just date him while I'm in New York. I want someone to pay attention to me. He'll do, he's cute.' "Then he writes me some text message - and he spells 'tomorrow' t-o-m-a-r-r-o-w-w! "There's no excuse (for that). There are certain words you shouldn't spell wrong."
Meanwhile, O'Day admits texting her dirty thoughts to boyfriends is fast becoming an obsession. She adds, "I would rather do dirty texting than have sex... When you're at dinner and you are listening to everybody but you're actually writing some dirty s**t, I love it. I'm so into that."
Meanwhile, her unlikely friendship with porn queen JENNA JAMESON has ruined the DANITY KANE singer's sex life - because the actress' X-rated movies no longer turn her on. O'Day admits she used to 'get off' on watching Jameson's hardcore sexploits, but now she can't masturbate to them.
She tells Complex magazine, "I don't watch her anymore. I was actually masturbating one night to, like, Anal Sex Compilation 3 or whatever, and she was in it and I was like, 'Oh no!' I had to turn it off. It was horrible." But having Jameson as a pal is useful when O'Day has sex etiquette queries.
The pop star, who is a Jameson lookalike, explains, "One time Jenna and I had a conversation about having sex on your period... There was some new guy I was dating, and it was the first time we were going to go there (have sex), and he was weird about it. "So I ask Jenna for advice and she's like, 'Honey, it's just a little war paint, who cares?'"
Geez, is this why Bossip calls her "slutty all the time?"

Empire Isis is a dynamic artist I met at the Toronto Independent Music awards. Before that, I checked out this Canadian talented beauty out on the net then I was in touch with Jon Asher, the music Publicist and we planned to do an interview at the TIMA awards. Meeting her was such a pleasure as you will see in that interview video. She's just filled with tons of humility.
Although she and her gorgeous brother/Manager Awane are half Morrocans, She is Canada's fastest growing Urban Star and has been recognized as a true Indie success story in a time of musical turmoil and downsizing. Her album "Sounds of Trumpets" dropped digitally last month. You can listen to snippets at her MySpace page.
She had just come back from Morroco the day before after a big gig. Check out the 100,000 crowd! Half British half Moroccan but raised by a Ugandan stepfather who adopted her - Empire ISIS, grew up in different places such as: Canada, the UK and Morocco. At the age 16, ISIS set off for South and Central America. However, it was only until she went to the rolling hills of Jamaica that she truly found herself. Her music speaks for itself and Isis says, “I want to inspire people to follow their dreams, to do what they’re here on earth for”. What amazes me about her is her humility. At least this is what I see as she reminds me of DJ Toomp who has produced all these songs we know and nobody really knows him that well. Toomp always likes to be in the background. This is a lady whose music is used in TV shows and we don't know her face until now. Isis shocked me as they called her on stage as the WINNER of the Best Out of Province Artist and she WON'T come on stage as if she were shy or something but it was just being humble. That is what I saw. This woman fascinates me. Her voice even fascinates me more. You should hear it.
Touring internationally and being nominated 10 times for different awards (her latest win at the Underground Music Awards for Best International Artist in New York City), ISIS played in front of 15 thousand plus people at the 2008 irie Jamboree in New York City last August 2008 where she shared the stage with Reggae Icon’s Sizzla Kolonji, Elephant Man, Beenie Man, Tarrus Riley & Cocoa Tea and many more.

Teen sensation MILEY CYRUS has come under fire from HEIDI KLUM's fashion guru TIM GUNN for dressing too old for her age. The Project Runway host has hit out at the 15-year-old Disney star, insisting she dresses "too tarty" for teen audiences. Gunn tells U.S. magazine OK!, "Forgive me. She's just a little too tart. I don't want her to look like she's going into a convent school. But it's just a little too much for a 15-year-old. If I didn't know better, I'd swear she was 25."
Aaliyah Dana Haughton(January 16, 1979 – August 25, 2001), better known as Aaliyah, was an American singer, dancer, actress, model, teen idol. Introduced to audiences by R&B/pop singer R. Kelly, Aaliyah became famous during the mid-1990s with several hit records from the songwriting/production team of Missy Elliott and Timbaland.
Despite her short career, she sold 32 million records worldwide. In addition to her commercial success, her collaborations with Timbaland helped shape the sound of R&B in the latter half of the 1990s. She also modeled for Tommy Hilfiger and starred in two motion pictures before being killed in a plane crash in the Bahamas. Following her death, singles like "Rock the Boat" and "Miss You" became Billboard hits.
On August 25, 2001, at 6:50 pm (EST), just after finishing filming of the music video to "Rock the Boat", Aaliyah and various members of her record company boarded a twin engine Cessna 402B (N8097W) at Marsh Harbour, Abaco Island, Bahamas to travel to Opa-locka Airport near Miami, Florida. The crew had a flight scheduled the next day, but the video wrapped early. Aaliyah and her entourage were eager to return to the US and took their heavy equipment from the shoot on the plane rather than leave it behind which resulted in the aircraft being well beyond the standard weight and balance tolerance provided by Cessna. The plane crashed shortly after takeoff about 200 feet (70 m) from the runway. Aaliyah, pilotLuis Morales III and the seven other passengers, including her hair stylist Eric Foreman, Anthony Dodd, her security guard Scott Gallin, Douglas Kratz (a director of video production for Virgin Records), stylist Christopher Maldonado, Keith Wallace and Gina Smith (both employees of the Blackground label) were killed. It also indicated that the pilot, Luis Morales III was not approved to pilot the plane he was attempting to fly. Morales falsely obtained his FAA license by showing hundreds of hours never flown, and he may also have falsified how many hours he had flown in order to get a job with his employer, Blackhawk International Airways. Additionally, an autopsy performed on Morales revealed traces of cocaine and alcohol in his blood.
According to findings from an inquest conducted by the coroner's office in the Bahamas, Aaliyah suffered from "severe burns and a blow to the head", in addition to severe shock. The coroner theorized that, even if Aaliyah had survived the crash, her recovery would have been virtually impossible given the severity of her injuries.
Aaliyah's funeral was held on August 31, 2001 at Saint Ignatius Loyola Roman Catholic Church in Manhattan, New York City. She was interred at the Rosewood Mausoleum in Ferncliff Cemetery, Hartsdale, New York. REST IN PEACE!

JENNIFER LOPEZ found inspiration for her post-baby triathlon goal while flicking through the channels on TV while she was pregnant. The singer/actress was "laid out like a beached whale" when she stumbled across a televised triathlon - and decided that would be a great achievement for a mother of twins. She tells U.S. fitness magazine Self, "I thought, 'What can I do to make my babies proud?' I think about what they'll think about the year they were born: who I was and what I did. "It's important to me to set examples for them. I want to lead with my life.
I want to say, 'You should do this because I've done it, and I know it makes you a better person and it makes you feel great and sleep better and be happier.'" Lopez insists her triathlon goal has really helped her get back into shape after giving birth to babies Emme and Max in February (08) - with the help of longtime trainer Gunnar Peterson. She adds, "Working out and getting back into shape isn't exciting to me but training for a triathlon is. There's a goal at the end of it, something to reach for." Lopez plans to compete in her first triathlon - a marathon of running, swimming and cycling - later this year (08)
