Zac Efron And Vanessa Hudgens -- Living Together And ENGAGED?

A source said: "Zac is relieved to be out of the pressure cooker, because Vanessa's mother has been putting serious heat on him to make an honest woman out of her daughter. She is old-school and doesn't approve of Vanessa living with Zac without some type of wedding promise."

Efron 21, is believed to have asked 20-year-old Vanessa to marry him while they holidayed in Japan in January to appease Vanessa Hudgens' mother who was rather old fashioned. After seeing all those nude pics of her daughter scattered all over the internet, I don't blame her either

The couple spend most of their time living in Vanessa's six-bedroom Tuscan style mansion in Studio City, California despite Efron spending $2.3million on his own modern, two-bedroom house in the Hollywood Hills last December.

The source added to National Enquirer magazine: "Zac loves the current arrangement. He adores Vanessa and they gel really well together. Gina already considers Zac a part of the family. So she's happy that he proposed."

It has been reported that the couple, who met on the set of "High School Musical," hopes to tie the knot sometime next year.

Do you believe that? I don't! They're way too young. Chances are they'll probably break up before then

Slumdog Millionaire - Oscar Winner, What's it about?

I haven't seen Slumdog millionaire yet, but because it won the Oscar's I certainly am. Anyway I started my research straight away. So what's it about?



It's about this kid who's about to win "Who Wants to be a Millionaire." One question away he gets dragged off on suspicion of cheating. This is where his story begins. He then tells of his adventures in Mumbai (where he grew up) and the apparent answers to the almost impossible questions just take form. In the end, it's just about life and love. It's cliche to think it's about a girl yet again. But it also reminds us how simple really life can be and how complicated we can make it.

That's the plot I guess, but if the Academy Awards think it's a great movie then I've got to go see it for myself.

Will he win a million dollars? Will he see the girl again?

And the Oscar Went to...

And here are the noted winners of the 81st Academy Awards

Slumdog millionaire won the following:

• Best Picture
• Best Directing
• Best Music
• Best Film Editing
• Best Sound Mixing
• Best Cinematography
• Best Writing (Adapted Screenplay)

Now I'm going to have to watch this movie, because it has won so many awards - it's got me interested.


Best actor: Sean Penn in Milk
Best actress: Kate Winslet in The Reader

It's been said Kate Winslet has been nominated so many times it's about time she won. I wouldn't put it past her I guess. She's a pretty good actress

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button received accolades for Best Make-up, Best Visual Efffects and Best Art Direction. Many of my office mates say it's a beautiful movie. A masterful depiction of life, even without having to endure the beauty that is Brad Pitt

Best Supporting Actor: Heath Ledger

I knew they'd give the best supporting actor award to Heath Ledger. It's a given once you die. But in fairness to him, he was awesome in The Dark Knight, much better than Batman I have to say

Best Supporting Actress: Penelope Cruz

First they say for a Spanish actress, she's hot so I don't mind

Top 10 Most Stylish Men in America

Justin Timberlake was awarded most stylish man in America right in time to launch his clothing line fashion show. Timberlake said in the March issue of GQ that he got his sense of style from his stepfather, Paul Harless, a banker who laid out his suit for the next morning every night and went to work looking "like Richard Gere in (American) Gigolo." Now that's cute

He's also quite practical, with a form over function flair signature style of wearing a suit with sneakers. According to Justin Timberlake, "I just put sneakers on because I couldn't dance in the shoes I had. I couldn't leap with just insoles and dress shoes. I would've hurt myself."

This years list includes a batch of well known musical personalities: Kanye West, Justin Timberlake, T.I., and Mark Ronson as well as actor/musician Jason Schwartzman and hotelier André Balazs, handsome Photographer Alexi Lubormirski amongst others.

Rihanna Vs. Chris Brown - Did he beat her?

From an image of near-perfection, both Rihanna and Chris Brown had practically everything - great careers, incredible fortune, not to mention worldwide fame.

This all came crashing down though last Feb-08, yep I read the news online but have been too busy to blog recently. It's sad but true. The day-job can hamper a lot of things. But we need to make money so what the heck

Anyway the night ended with Rihanna being rushed to a nearby hospital and Chris Brown being held by authorities.

Chris Brown has mentioned his apologies:

"Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired. I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person. Much of what has been speculated or reported on blogs and/or reported in the media is wrong. While I would like to be able to talk about this more, until the legal issues are resolved, this is all I can say except that I have not written any messages or made any posts to Facebook, on blogs or any place else. Those posts or writing under my name are frauds."

So far nobody's talking about the details of the incident though, I wouldn't dare speculate what has happened since a lot of people already have. Particularly after this photo was leaked on TMZ. Rihanna claims Brown struck her with his fists and that's what did the damage. There was no object used in the alleged attack. Rihanna refused treatment at the scene, but before she left cops took photos. We're told the photos alone are "devastating proof of abuse." And we've learned it was not Rihanna who called 911. Someone in the area heard her screams and called.




No duh! If you look like that, obviously someone did hit you with something. The last word so far has been from Rihanna

"At the request of the authorities, Rihanna is not commenting about the incident involving Chris Brown," the statement read. "She wants to assure her fans that she remains strong, is doing well, and deeply appreciates the outpouring of support she has received during this difficult time."

American Idol's "Bikini Girl" Gets Booted Out of the Show - Turns to where else? Playboy!

American Idol's “Bikini girl” Katrina Darrell just got booted off the show! That was a shame I thought she was quite a looker. The voice wasn't all too great but she could be a star. Apparently other companies like Playboy thought the same. Bikini Girl though was quote in an interview to have had a difficult time with new judge Kara DioGuardi.

As for why Darrell wore a swimsuit to her first AI audition, she explains, “It was 110 degrees in Phoenix and I heard that people wait 15 hours and don’t even get to audition so I figured, what the heck. At least I'll be tan." ---> Yeah Right! As if getting the male judges' attention just wasn't part of the ploy... not that it wasn't a good idea. She certainly got Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson's attention right? So I think she pulled it off

As “Idol” fans know, Katrina was axed from the show during Hollywood week after failing to impress the judges in a group audition. During the show, Katrina was shown heading to bed while her fellow group members stayed up practicing.

She claimed she practiced a lot more than what was shown but I guess they were just preparing to show her the door right? So there you go. Anyway Bikini Girl is also noted to have a huge crush on American Idol host Ryan Seacrest whom she has kissed numerous times.

Miley Cyrus "Bad Girl" Yet ANOTHER Photo Scandal

It looks like someone's got it in for Miley Cyrus. After barely a year of being free of the limelight - the scandalous limelight I mean, here she is again being haunted by critics for her "goofy" face. Apparently this picture of her with her friends shows her in a "racist" pose according to many-an-article I've come across



Says Newsday, the underwear model-dating, Vanity Fair photo-posing Disney star chalked up another controversy this week when a picture surfaced of her pulling up the corners of her eyes in a slanted fashion - an image considered insulting to Asians.

The Organisation of Chinese Americans criticised Cyrus for setting "a terrible example for her young fans".

Miley Cyrus though bites back this time with these things to say:

"I've been told there are some people upset about some pictures taken of me with friends making goofy faces! ... In no way was I making fun of any ethnicity! I was simply making a goofy face. When did that become newsworthy? It seems someone is trying to make something out of nothing to me. If that would have been anyone else, it would have been overlooked."

"I definitely feel like the press is trying to make me out as the new 'bad girl'!"

"I feel like now that Britney [Spears] is back on top of her game again, they need someone to pick on. Lucky me!"

She definitely seems pissed now doesn't she? No need to bring the B-word here though.
