“If I hear another story about Charlie Sheen I’m going to stick knitting needles in my ears till they bleed.”

BARACK Obama and his wife Michelle are at war — because she won’t give him another baby, sources have sensationally revealed. According to America’s Globe tabloid, the President took off his wedding ring during a furious fight with the First Lady over her lavish spending and reluctance to try for a third child — and the marriage has now reached a crisis point. “There’s shocking problems in the Obama marriage,” said one loose-lipped source. “Michelle is breaking her husband’s heart by refusing to have another baby.”

Levi Johnston is once again going after his baby mama's mama -- telling TMZ he believes Sarah Palin is "not qualified" to be the next President of the United States of America. Levi -- who's plotting his own quest for public office in Wasilla, Alaska -- is responding to a statement Palin made earlier this week in which she said she would run for Prez, "If there's nobody else to do it." Johnston tells us, "That makes no sense because someone always runs for President" ... adding, "[Sarah] wouldn't go through with a campaign even if she was nominated." As...

And just like that, they were off again. "It's over. I broke up with him," Bristol Palin tells PEOPLE exclusively of her second try at an engagement to Levi Johnston, father of her 19-month-old son Tripp. Palin, 19, says the relationship soured on July 14, the very same day they announced their marriage intentions to the world. Palin says he told her that evening he might have fathered a baby with another teenage girl. (Palin did not name the young woman, but a pregnant former girlfriend of Johnston's has since publicly denied his paternity.) In an emotional phone interview with...

HOT off the press at Maggie's Notebook, looks like that poor girl came to her senses... ah, the power of prayer! ____________________________________________ Bristol Palin has dis-engaged her engagement to Levi Johnston. The week has been a busy one for Levi as pregnant girlfriends are speculated to be carrying his babies. Lanesia Garcia says her baby is actually not Levi's, it's the baby of the other guy, but... Briana Plum claims her baby's daddy is indeed Levi Johnston. No word from Sarah.

But just because it was published in The Huffington Post (it is) and in The National Enquirer (it is) doesn't necessarily make it true--or untrue. Both scandal rags are reporting that Sarah Palin's daughter's fiance Levi Johnson's ex-girlfriend Lanesia Garcia is pregnant. That's quite a mouthful. Without attesting to its truthfulness, WebToday is merely reporting what was reported by the two questionable sourses. RadarOnline.com claims that friends of Bristol Palin say she that she is heartbroken over the news. No kidding. Duh. Who wouldn't be a bit bummed to embarass ma Palin with such news. And if true, would paying...

First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes … a Gosselin-esque bit of child exploitation? Granted, it’s TMZ that’s reporting it, but this isn’t the only data out there pointing towards a show of some kind. Ricky Hollywood’s lawyer was conspicuously noncommittal when asked about it by the NYT, saying ominously, “I can’t talk about that until the end of the week.” What could go wrong? Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin are already looking to bring outsiders into their upcoming marriage — in the form of a reality TV crew … this according to a source very familiar with the...

Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston reveal exclusively in the new Us Weekly that they are getting married. And, they tell Us Weekly, former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin has been kept in the dark about their plans ... until now. "We got engaged two weeks ago," Bristol, 19, tells Us Weekly. "It felt right, even though we don’t have the approval of our parents."

If you've wondered how the Democrat controlled whinney media will handle the Obama affair story read this from a self delusional Leftist website: This line says it all "the ailing, tea-bagging Republican party.." "Swiss newspaper Le Matin is reviving old claims that President Barack Obama had an extramarital affair in 2004 with Vera Baker, a young woman who worked on his campaign team when he was running for Illinois Senator. The paper claims "video surveillance tapes exist that are rather compromising for the 44th president of the United States." It also alleges that software engineers have dug up email exchanges...

In two new interviews, Barack and Michelle Obama reflect on their first year at the White House and reveal that they still make time to check out indie films and keep up with tabloid gossip. The Obamas gave People magazine their first interview of 2010 (and apparently felt totally comfortable nuzzling in front of People photographer Martin Schoeller). The President said he's proud of getting the health care bill through the House and the Senate this year and Michelle talked more about her White House garden, but both said they're proudest of how their girls have adjusted to living...

Maxim brings the hottest female stars to FOXNews.com every Monday. Today, meet 'Bring It On' star Christina Milian. Christina Milian likes to keep her relationships exciting. The “Bring It On” star, 27, says that includes everything from costumes (like the red, robed, maid one she describes as “really cute”) to strip clubs. “I try a little bit of everything,” she says in the new issue of Maxim magazine. “Im all about keeping the excitement in the relationship. That’s why I sing songs like ‘Dip It Low.’ When I’m with somebody, I like to keep it exciting.”

They have plenty in common. Well OK, then, they both shave their legs and both are worth a fortune. So it is perhaps not too surprising that departing Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo and socialite Paris Hilton are reportedly enjoying the first flushes of romance. The perma-tanned Portuguese winger has been celebrating news that he has been snapped up by Real Madrid for the eye-watering sum of £80 million by hitting the town in Los Angeles with the American party queen.

It's simply unthinkable. After hundreds of man hours of scrutiny, the research is in ... and Megan Fox may have a Megan flaw -- her thumbs!

AMID all the chaos in Albany, the upstate billionaire at the center of the state Senate upheaval yesterday coyly confirmed he's dating tennis great Monica Seles. Buffalo Sabres owner and upstate king-maker Thomas Golisano, 67 -- credited with convincing two rogue Democratic senators to join forces with the GOP -- has been spotted for months squiring around Seles, 35. When asked yesterday if the two were a pair, the normally unflappable Paychex founder -- who was making the interview rounds all over the state capital -- seemed taken aback. "Why do you want to know?" said Golisano, clearly more comfortable...

Tila Tequila got thrown curbside by Billy Corgan and is now back to dating broads.

Sarah Palin's 18-year-old daughter Bristol has reportedly broken off her engagement with Levi Johnston, the father of her 2-month-old son Tripp. It's surprising because in an interview just last month with FOX's Gretta Van Susteren, Bristol said the 19-year-old Levi is a hands-on dad and that they planned on marrying after finishing their education. But in a new interview with Star Magazine, Levi's sister Mercede Johnston says Bristol actually broke up with Levi more than a month ago, is not attending school and rarely lets her baby daddy see their young son. Mercede also says Bristol even told him that...

Kerrville Texas - A bitter divorce trial slated to begin in a Kerr County courtroom in late August between Joseph and Kimberly Burkett already is making national headlines. Public interest in the case grew when CBS’s chief foreign affairs correspondent, Lara Logan, announced she was pregnant. The father, she claims, is Joseph Burkett of Kerrville. Their relationship began while Logan was on assignment in Iraq, where Burkett was stationed as a federal contractor, according to news reports. The relationship reportedly began shortly after Logan broke off another relationship with a fellow journalist last November. Burkett and Logan apparently met years...

Cyber Vigilantes Track Extremist Web Sites, Intelligence Experts Balk at Effort MIAMI, Fla. — While the debate grows on how to tackle global jihadism on the Internet, some security experts warn that "cyber vigilantes" — people who track and help shut down terror-related Web sites — are compromising government investigations with their amateur sleuthing tactics. Michael Radu, a senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute and an expert on terror-related Web sites, said the government is already overburdened trying to monitor the thousands of sites on the Web believed to contain radical Muslim messages. These cyber vigilantes, he said,...

22 March 2008 FOX NEWS JOINS THE "FAKE BUT ACCURATE" SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM by Aaron Weisburd

Time to tighten the belt, Paris. Hotel magnate Barron Hilton announced yesterday that he's leaving 97% of his wealth to charity, dramatically cutting the fortune his children and grandkids will get. That means granddaughter Paris Hilton, who once stood to inherit $100 million or more by some accounts, could end up with a measly $5 million or so. "The whole family will be devastated, particularly [Paris' mom] Kathy," a pal of the clan told the Daily News last night. "Some of them could be likely to contest the will - it'll be in the courts longer than Anna Nicole Smith...

The anonymous e-mails and letters began dropping into inboxes and through front doors this summer. One claimed that Hillary Clinton was having a lesbian affair with Huma Abedin, her beautiful aide. Another online mass-mailing cautioned of the “dark secrets” of Mitt Romney’s Mormonism. A blogger claiming to support John McCain said that Rudy Giuliani's wife supported the killing of “innocent puppies”. Flyers appeared on cars accusing Barack Obama of being a Muslim extremist. An anonymous website said that Fred Thompson was a corrupt playboy. Welcome to South Carolina, the foulest swamp of electoral dirty tricks in America. This state’s primary...

He's a singer who has made some odd career moves in his time, from changing his name to an unpronounceable love symbol to scrawling "slave" on his cheek in protest at his record company. But industry experts yesterday warned that Prince's latest decision might be the most controversial of all. He has threatened to sue thousands of his biggest fans for breach of copyright, provoking an angry backlash and claims of censorship. His lawyers have forced his three biggest internet fansites to remove all photographs, images, lyrics, album covers and anything linked to the artist's likeness. A legal letter asks...

We’re still a bit incredulous on this one, but a top level U.S. Department of Justice official is telling Big Head DC that Michael Musto’s rumor about Hillary Clinton fooling around with one of her top female aides Huma Abedin is based in reality! “I am close enough to Hillary and Huma to tell you that this ‘rumor’ is true,” the official says. “It is well known inside her campaign that Hillary and Huma are an item. “If you call Hillary’s residence in DC first thing in the morning, Huma answers the phone,” the official continues. “Same thing late at...

PHOENIX — A man who agreed to plead guilty in a plot to extort more than $1 million from Tom Cruise for the actor's stolen wedding photos was found dead in his home, authorities said. Investigators said it appeared David Hans Schmidt, 47, who was under house arrest and faced up to two years in federal prison, had committed suicide. He was found dead in his townhouse around 3 p.m. Friday after police noticed a tracker placed on him had not moved and he had not checked in, Lt. Anthony Lopez said. It wasn't known when Schmidt, who was free...

David Hans Schmidt, aka the "Sultan of Sleaze," has finally learned what the potential consequences are of peddling his shadily procured wares back to their original owners. Having attempted to shake down Tom Cruise with stolen photos from Cruise's lavishly mounted Italian fairytale wedding, a guilty-pleading Schmidt is finally looking at serving up to two years of hard time............

Our report yesterday about Angelina Jolie banning press from interviews and requiring interviewers to sign contracts touched off a firestorm. Mostly it was from colleagues who were relieved that we’d finally lifted the veil on all this craziness. And it wasn’t just about FOX News getting banned from the red carpet. That was bad, but it wasn’t the central issue. Jolie treats all the press with hostility unless she can control the outcome of an interaction. Insisting interviewers sign contracts was an affront, considering that her movie is about the murder of a reporter who tried bravely to do his...

LOS ANGELES - Paris Hilton's latest jail cell may be as far from a Hilton hotel as she's ever been. The heiress has been in the medical unit of the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles since Friday. Inmates call it "the crazy ward" because it houses psychiatric patients. "When I was here, it was the worst of the worst," said Donese Allen, 40, who said she stayed in the unit because she had seizures.[snip].. He said meals consist of "mystery meat" sandwiches; ground beef and potatoes on toast, popularly known as "s--- on a shingle," or macaroni and...

LOS ANGELES - It was apparently the one time she was camera-shy. Paris Hilton was so terrified guards would snap a cell-phone picture of her on the toilet that she didn't eat or drink for three days, which left her facing a life-threatening collapse, a source told the Daily News. She also was not taking prescribed medication while in jail, Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca said. The stainless steel lavatory in the hotel heiress' 12-foot-by-8-foot cell was in plain view of a large window in the door, which guards could look through 24 hours a day. "She was absolutely...

PETRIFIED PARIS HILTON mouthed “I love you” to her parents last night — before being carted off to face a hostile reception in prison.....[snip] [snip]Prisoner number 9818783 was put back in her special cell — isolated from other inmates — amid fears the angry lags could RIOT over her special treatment. Wardens even ordered a lockdown as prisoners — who think Paris pretended to be sick to con doctors — threatened a revolt. An insider at the prison in Lynwood, California, said: “The women inside the jail are seething. They say if you’re a rich white girl you get special...

Larry Birkhead just filed a lawsuit against Debra Opri for allegedly defrauding him out of hundreds of thousands of dollars. In a lawsuit filed Friday in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Birkhead claims an MSNBC reporter hooked him up with her. He says Opri said she was willing to represent him free of charge, because "the publicity from her representation of Plaintiff would greatly benefit Opri's legal career." Birkhead says shortly after hiring Opri, he did an interview with the MSNBC reporter who was asking questions about confidential documents she shouldn't have had. Birkhead says Opri told him she had...

May 28, 2007 -- I'M mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore! There are two - count 'em two - premieres this week, "The Ex-Wives Club" and "The Starter Wife," that are so demeaning to women that I propose we declare this "In Praise of Parasitic Women Week." Both shows celebrate women who marry well for a living and then have the nerve to whine about it. [snip]... ..[snip] Marla Maples? Nice woman, but - hello? - she was married to Donald Trump and tries to come across as the wronged woman in the show. Not...

Girls Gone Wild' creator Joe Francis has been charged with sexual battery, just two days after he was sentenced to 35 days in jail for contempt of court. The 34-year-old picked up the misdemeanor charge Wednesday. It relates to a January incident at a birthday party in Hollywood, where Francis allegedly touched an 18-year-old woman's breast, buttocks and inner thigh at least 10 times, despite being asked repeatedly to stop. Francis faces six months in jail and a $2,000 fine if found guilty. His arraignment is set for May 22.....[snip]

Joe Francis is FREAKING OUT! He's sitting in jail, serving time for tax evasion, contempt of court, molesting minors, bribery etc. - facing a hundred years in prison, and NO ONE is returning his calls! The Girls Gone Wild mogul has been reaching out to his celebrity friends - he wants them to write letters defending his character to the judge. These are the same celebrities who didn't hesitate to accept Joe's hospitality when he was on top of the world. They flew in his Gulfstream jet and enjoyed his Caligula-like parties in LA, Miami, Mexico, etc. Paris and Nicky...

Her announcement this morning has nothing to do with contract negotiations breaking down. ABC did not end Rosie’s "View." Rosie ended it. And don’t believe the spin that ABC was mad at her for comments made at the Matrix luncheon on Monday. Rosie was finished with "The View" over the Christmas holiday when Barbara Walters failed to defend her against Donald Trump. In fact, it was worse than that: When O’Donnell discovered that Walters had bad-mouthed her to Trump, she decided to leave the show. It was that simple. ABC, in fact, wanted O’Donnell to stay with the show. They...

"Girls Gone Wild" founder Joe Francis has been ordered to spend 35 days in jail for violating a federal order to surrender to authorities in Florida. The 34-year-old California entrepreneur, who wept in court, also was fined $5,000 Monday by U.S. District Judge Richard Smoak, the Panama City (Fla.) News Herald reported. Francis was given credit for 13 days he'd already served. Francis admitted he willfully violated Smoak's order to give himself up to authorities April 5. He was arrested at the Panama City airport five days later. Francis' attorney, Jan Handzlik of Los Angeles, was rebuffed by the judge...

PANAMA CITY “Girls Gone Wild” founder Joe Francis spends his days and nights in a cold, concrete cell, isolated from almost all human contact. Francis was cut off from the medication that has kept him sane, his attorney said, and a light burning 24 hours a day has kept him awake. “He can’t sleep. He hasn’t eaten properly. He’s prone to anxiety attacks,” his lawyer, Aaron Dyer, said Wednesday night. “I know if it was me, I’d be cold and frustrated. Joe has been breaking down, and Joe Francis does not break down.” Dyer said Francis had been trying to...

April 13, 2007 -- HAPPY Friday the 13th. The black cats no dinner table seems able to stay away from this week are Paula Zahn and Don Imus. I mean, forget Bush and Iraq. And it's Hillary who? The Paula conversation is, how could she let things go this far? Kiss off a marriage of 20 years with three kids to go for somebody else who's a husband and father and stepfather. Lots of children are involved. Money's no issue because even if the new guy has a few bucks more, all the principals have it. It's like beautiful brainy...

"Girls Gone Wild" bad boy Joe Francis has allegedly been found with pills in his Florida jail cell -- and the reason he got caught is because he allegedly tried to bribe a guard for a bottle of water with a $100 bill on Wednesday night. And get this ...TMZ has also learned that the President of Mantra Films, Scott Barbour, the company that produces "Girls Gone Wild," has also been arrested by the Bay County Sheriff on suspicion of slipping the pills and the cash to Francis. Authorities say Barbour made the handoff when he visited Francis Wednesday night...

TMZ has learned that Mel Gibson went on a rampage when he was arrested Friday on suspicion of drunk driving, hurling religious epithets. TMZ has also learned that the Los Angeles County Sheriff's department had the initial report doctored to keep the real story under wraps. TMZ has four pages of the original report prepared by the arresting officer in the case, L.A. County Sheriff's Deputy James Mee. According to the report, Gibson became agitated after he was stopped on Pacific Coast Highway and told he was to be detained for drunk driving Friday morning in Malibu. The actor began...

Translated from news article in “Isvestia” Russian newspaper: Dutch Astrophysicist Dr Piers Van Der Meer, an expert of the European Space Agency (ESA) believes, that some observations testify that the Sun will explode in just a few years. The temperature of the nucleus of the Sun, according to Dr Van Der Meer is usually 27 million degrees Farenheit. However in the last few years the nucleus has risen up to a dangerous 49 million degrees. In his opinion, the internal heating process of our star during the last few years is very similar to the changes occurring in stars just...
