WENN Blog - Celebrity Photos, News, and Gossip - Celebrity Cocktails With A Twist Meet the new pose — same as the old pose May 21, 2009 at 5:03 pm 90210’s AnnaLynne McCord is not an unattractive woman; why does she always have to goose the shot by striking that cheesy pin-up pose?  It seems like she does it in every picture, not just in this one, snapped at the CW network upfronts in NYC on Thursday. We would ask if we’re supposed to be able to see her bra, but…it’s AnnaLynne McCord.  We’re probably lucky that’s all we can see. Hey, Gene Simmons: what'd you think of the American Idol finale? May 21, 2009 at 12:34 pm This is what passes for general approval from KISS’s Gene Simmons, we suspect, so we’ll assume he’s on board with Kris Allen winning the competition — although Adam Lambert seems more Simmons’s speed, aesthetically. Any excuse to use a "Cruella de Mills" headline May 21, 2009 at 9:59 am We have no reason to suspect ardent vegan and Macca ex Heather Mills (showing off her cooking skills, above, at the Foodies Festival in Brighton, UK last week) has done anything dastardly to any Dalmatian puppies — but it’s about the only thing she doesn’t stand accused of by the tabs, and while we feel like Mills can’t possibly be as much of a horse’s ass as she sometimes seems, the unending stream of stories about her tone-deaf grasping amuse us to no end. The latest: Mills has reportedly been dropped as the celeb face of a new videogame after demanding ten times more money than producers originally offered. Sounds familiar, no?  More after the jump. McCartney’s ex was approached by the makers of Capcom’s Bionic Commando to represent a character with a prosthetic arm, because of Mills’s own experiences as an amputee.  But according to The Sun, Mills — who lost her lower left leg in a traffic accident — allegedly told the company she would only take part if they made her the star of the game…and paid her six figures. A source told the tabloid, “She was insistent she wouldn’t do it for a smaller fee and said the producers should make her the star. “The request was way, way over budget and they certainly weren’t keen on basing the game on her.” Well, now they aren’t. Woman named in alleged Springsteen affair blasts ex May 21, 2009 at 9:02 am People.com notes that the woman who allegedly had an affair with Bruce Springsteen (above, at a performance in Toronto earlier this month) is now accusing her husband of making up the story in an attempt to blackmail a “big money” payout out of the rock star. Arthur and Ann Kelly are currently going 15 rounds in New Jersey divorce courts, amid Arthur’s claims of a long-running affair between the “Glory Days” hitmaker and Ann.  Ann denies these allegations, as does Springsteen, who’s been married to Patti Scialfa for 17 years. Ann has recently filed papers in a Jersey court, protesting that her ex purposely named a celebrity as a party to the divorce, trying to win a big settlement.  The papers say that “[Arthur] and his attorney felt there could be ‘big money’ in this… because, true or not, the celebrity would want this to ‘go away.’” Ann’s irate father had earlier lambasted his ex-son-in-law, insisting Arthur and his attorney are “just seeking sensationalism” by naming Springsteen, adding, “They are dredging up mud that doesn’t exist.” Breaking: Gordon takes own life, just before birthday May 21, 2009 at 8:18 am From the WENN wire via France comes tragic news about British actress Lucy Gordon: Actress Lucy Gordon has hanged herself at her Paris, France apartment. The British star, who appeared in movies including Spider-Man 3 ["she's shown at the premiere in 2007 above" -- ed.], Frost, and Serendipity, was found dead on Wednesday just two days before her 29th birthday. She is believed to have been devastated after the recent suicide of a close friend in the U.K. Gordon’s body was found at her apartment at la Rue des Petites Ecuries after her boyfriend alerted a nearby shopkeeper. An unnamed detective tells the Daily Telegraph Online, “There were no suspicious circumstances. It appears that the young woman took her own life.” Another officer tells Sky News, “It was an horrific scene. The young woman had taken her own life in terrible circumstances. We are not seeking anyone else. It was a clear case of suicide.” Gordon had recently finished filming on a biopic of singer-songwriter Serge Gainsbourg in which she played British actress Jane Birkin. Trailers for the movie were broadcast at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this week. Director Joann Sfar and producers Marc du Pontavice and Didier Lupfer said in a statement: “[The film] owes a lot to the generosity, gentleness and immense talent of Lucy Gordon.” An agent for Miss Gordon confirmed she had “ended her own days.” A lovely, gentle phrasing for a desperate act — readers, if you feel that bad, please call someone. Allen wins Idol May 21, 2009 at 3:45 am America has voted — and Kris Allen of Conway, AR is the newest American Idol.  We have to admit that we didn’t expect the guy to get far, but he can really sing, and he is really cute (but Adam Lambert is the reigning Tight Pants Idol at WENN Blog HQ).  Congratulations to Allen, and we hope his album doesn’t suffer the same fate as Taylor Hicks’s.   This email was sent to createrofheaven.lend@blogger.com.  Create Your Account Don't want to receive this feed any longer?
