Female Celebrities - Daily NewsEve Pleads ‘No Contest’ in DUI CaseFriday, June 29, 2007 Female celebrity and hip-hop star Eve Jihan Jeffers (Eve), pleaded no contest to driving with a blood-alcohol content greater than the legal limit this Thursday. As a result, Eve will be required to wear an alcohol-detecting ankle bracelet for 45 days. The female rapper turned actress was not in court at the time her attorney entered the plea, which, under an established plea agreement, allowed a second count for driving under the influence against Eve to be dropped. Eve was originally arrested in the early hours of April 26th after she struck a Hollywood Boulevard median in her gold Maserati. Originally facing a maximum of six months jail time and a $1,000 fine, Eve only received 36 months probation and a $390 fine after the no contest plea. She will also face fees and restitution for repairs to the median, potentially bumping her total bill to more… Read full article Spice Girls announce comeback tour Thursday, June 28, 2007 British girl group the Spice Girls today announced plans for a comeback tour and the release of a greatest hits album. Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm and Geri Halliwell – also known as Posh, Scary, Baby, Sporty and Ginger – will visit eleven countries on their tour, starting in Los Angeles on 7 December this year and finishing in Buenos Aires on 24 January 2008. The band hit the big time in 1996 when their first single, Wannabe, reached number one in countries all over the world. They would go on to release another nine singles - eight of which reached the top spot in the UK singles charts, including three consecutive Christmas number ones – before eventually splitting up in 2001. Their third album, Forever, was released as a four piece after the departure of Geri in 1998. Kelly Clarkson – Creativity Faces Controversy Thursday, June 28, 2007 American Idol and Grammy-award winner, Kelly Clarkson, is currently having some ups and downs in the recording industry. The young star rose quickly to fame after capturing the first Idol crown in 2002, and winning two Grammy’s for her debut album, Thankful, and the second one, Breakaway, in 2006. Kelly signed a huge contract with NASCAR in January of 2007, where she’ll be featured as spokesperson in all their television spots, at charitable events, and at the gala award dinner in December. The young star is receiving some unfavorable publicity, however, as the press is reporting declining sales and controversy over her latest album, My December, just released this past Tuesday. Ms Clarkson chose to use her own people as co-writers this time, rather than keeping writer Max Martin who played a major part in the success of Kelly’s Since U Been Gone, along with hits by… Read full article Beyoncé - BET Awards 2007 Wednesday, June 27, 2007 Beyoncé Knowles walked away from this year’s BET Awards ceremony with two trophies for her work over the past year. The twenty-five year old opened the ceremony duetting with Jennifer Holliday on And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going before the winners were announced. As well as winning Best Female R&B Artist and Video Of The Year (for her recent single Irreplaceable, her fourth solo number one in the US charts) the singer/actress had been nominated in four other categories, twice as many as any other artist. These prizes add to her collection as she also won in two categories in 2004 – Best Collaboration (for Crazy In Love) and again for Best Female R&B Artist. 2007 has been a good year for Beyoncé who has so far won several awards for both her musical and movie careers and she was also named as… Read full article Extended Care for Lindsay Lohan Wednesday, June 27, 2007 Lindsay Lohan has had a difficult time recovering from her latest party going escapades. Although she’s been in and out of rehab, Lindsay invariably seems to suffer setbacks. According to her Mom, Dina Lohan, the young actress decided on her own to extend her stay at the rehab facility. Lindsay was released from rehab in January of this year, but was arrested once again in May, when she was found in possession of an unknown substance, presumably cocaine, after wrecking her expensive Mercedes Benz in Malibu. It was back to rehab for a second try at getting her life in order. Lindsay is determined to get help for her substance abuse problem, which is obviously a serious one, causing a great deal of turmoil that is affecting her career and her life. Fortunately, Mom talks to her every day, giving encouragement and support, and saying that her… Read full article Cameron Diaz Apologizes to Peru Tuesday, June 26, 2007 Female celebrity Cameron Diaz was recently seen touring an Incan city in the Andes of Peru with a drab green handbag with the slogan “Serve The People” written in Chinese Letters and a bright red star printed on the bag. The actress was not trying to set a new celebrity fashion trend, merely enjoying tourist purchase while touring China. The celebrity’s new purse contained a popular political slogan of Mao Zedong, a Chinese Communist leader. While this accessory is a hot fashion item in some parts of the world, the slogan on Cameron Diaz’s purse only brings back painful memories to the people of Peru. The slogan evokes memories of an insurgency by the Maoist Shining Path that battled against the Peruvian government during the 1980s and 1990s and left almost 70,000 individuals dead. Cameron Diaz was very upset about the incident and offered a… Read full article |
