Kevin Jonas has stunned fans of the Jonas Brothers by asking his girlfriend Danielle Deleasa to marry him.

The romantic pop star, 21, reportedly dropped to one knee after showing up unannounced at Deleasa’s home in New Jersey on Wednesday morning - after flying in from a Tuesday night concert in Vancouver, Canada.

He presented her with a custom-made, cushion-cut diamond ring, according to People.com.

Thrilled Jonas tells the publication, “It was tough performing last night, knowing that I was going to ask the biggest question in my life to the most amazing girl in the world.

“She said yes, yes, yes, like, 500 times super fast in a row.”

The couple met in 2007 while vacationing with their families in the Bahamas, and Kevin has the blessing of his parents.

A statement from Denise and Kevin Jonas, Sr. reads, “Our hearts are filled with joy today and we are happy to share with you that our son Kevin has asked Danielle for her hand in marriage… It is such a blessing that she will be joining our family.”

Has Justin Timberlake got a competitive streak?

No sooner has his girlfriend signed up to star in a one-off production of musical Guys & Dolls — JT’s gone one better, and landed a role in a movie version of the same play.

According to The Sun director Guy Ritchie wants Timberlake — who’s close pals with his ex Madonna – to star in his upcoming adaptation.

A source says, ”Guy thought (Justin) was impressive in Alpha Dog. He likes his personality. Justin would be ideal for Guys and Dolls because he can act, dance and sing….a great box office draw, as well as a safe bet to sell the soundtrack.”
 
We’re not sure how well that sits with Biel, who’s gearing up for her role as a Doll at the Hollywood Bowl on August 2nd.

Maybe Ritchie can keep them both happy and find a role for Jessica too.


Jonas Brothers get their rock and roll stripes

Maybe The Jonas Brothers aren’t the clean-cut, virginal, God-fearing pop stars we thought they were…

Apparently the mop-topped trio have been banned from staying at a London hotel, because they trashed it the last time they were in the British capital.

Sadly there were no Rolls Royces in swimming pools, strippers passed out in the bathtub. There wasn’t even a TV tossed from a window…
 
As Kevin Jonas reveals, “Joe and Nick broke the floorboards of a room in London once by practising their flips. They moved the coffee table over the top of the hole in the floor….We’re probably not going to go back there!”

It may be the lamest way to trash a hotel room — but a trashed hotel room is a trashed hotel room. Well done boys.


Jacko's glove to be auctioned off

Jacko fans will get the chance to bid for the very glove that grabbed his crotch onstage during The Jacksons’ farewell Victory Tour 25 years ago.

The illuminated glove is considered the single most iconic piece of Michael Jackson memorabilia in the world and is one of just two in the world. 

Experts claim it was worth up to $80,000 before Jackson died, so it could fetch many times  that when it goes under the hammer in October.


Jackson's will filed in Los Angeles, nothing for Rowe
July 1, 2009 at 1:09 pm

Michael Jackson’s will has been filed in a Los Angeles court and early reports suggest he’s left nothing for his ex-wife Debbie Rowe.

In the will, dated 7 July, 2002, the King of Pop leaves his entire estate to a family trust.

The seven-year-old document estimates the Thriller hitmaker was worth over $500 million (GBP333.3 million) in 2002, but consisted entirely of non-cash and non-liquid assets, including the Sony/ATV music catalogue featuring the songs of the Beatles.

Jackson’s parents, Joe and Katherine Jackson, were initially unaware their son had made arrangements in the event of his death and filed a petition in court on Monday (29Jun09) stating the singer died “intestate”, meaning without a will.

Jackson’s former lawyer John Branca has since come forward and presented a copy of the papers to his grieving relatives.

The Jackson family lawyer, L. Londell McMillan, says, “My clients are now aware after filings that a will has been presented. His various advisers are looking for additional documents.”

Contrary to earlier reports, the will allegedly leaves all Jackson’s assets to the Michael Jackson Family Trust, his mother and his three children - Prince Michael Jr., 12, Paris Michael Katherine, 11, and seven-year-old Prince Michael II. Rowe, the mother of Jackson’s two eldest kids, is not named in the will, according to U.S. TV news network MSNBC.

The will names Branca, John McClain and Barry Siegel as co-executors. McClain is a music industry executive and Siegel was Jackson’s accountant. Siegel resigned from his role as executor in 2003.

The will names the King of Pop’s mother Katherine as the guardian of his children, and longtime friend Diana Ross is named as an alternative guardian, who would take over custody if his mum was unable to.


Carey's cross-dressing revenge

The idea of a romance between Mariah Carey and Eminem is frankly a little weird — but we’re loving the way they’re dragging their baggage out in public.

Eminem ‘dishonoured’ Carey by discussing their brief fling in his comeback single, so the singer has gone one better — dressing up as the rapper and mocking him in her own song.

WENN caught up with Carey on the New York City set of her new video Obsessed, in full drag — first as a Eminen-style rapper and then as hotel doorman (click below).

And we’ve got hold of the lyrics to the singer’s hilarious dig at her ex:

“You’re delusional, boy, you’re losing your mind… It must be weed, it must be the E… Why are you so obsessed with me? Lying that you’re sexing me… You’re a mum and pop, I’m a corporation… I’m a press conference, you’re a conversation.”

Is this confrontation fake or genuine? It seems a little convenient for us. Both artists have albums to promote and are getting lots of publicity from their ‘war of words’.

Bruno school scandal
July 1, 2009 at 8:00 am

Not everyone is enjoying the hilariously camp publicity surrounding the release of Sacha Baron Cohen’s latest creation Bruno.

It seems school bosses in California have got their knickers in a twist over a Bruno photoshoot for GQ magazine.

Cohen posed with football players from Birmingham High School in Van Nuys for the feature.  The ‘worst’ snap shows Cohen laying on a student, wearing just shoulder pads, tight shorts and a cup.

And now it looks like the school is going to lose a valuable conversion to a charter institution.

If this massive fuss does nothing else — it at least helps us identify some of the several million Californians who voted in Proposition 8! 


Pattinson's parklife

WENN ran into Robert Pattinson looking cool in New York’s Cental Park on Tuesday.

The actor is shooting Remember Me in the city - leading his hordes of screaming teenage fans on a merry dance around Manhattan.

After all, he is the most famous man in the world — according to his Twilight co-star Michael Welch, at least.

Welch says, “Rob Pattinson and Barack Obama are the two most famous people in the world. I don’t see how this is sustainable - is this gonna keep going for the rest of his life?

“Is it time to start getting concerned here? It’s tough, man … I don’t know where his life is really headed.

“I don’t wish I had Rob’s life at all. I’m glad he’s OK. And as long as people don’t start ripping at him and breaking him in two, I think we’ll be OK… I wish him the best, and hope he’s going to be all right.”

Sure you’re not just a teensy bit jealous Michael?
