Kim K Bans Rihanna From Kanye
Rihanna might have millions of fans, but apparently she can't count Kim Kardashian as one of them—the reality show star allegedly banned RiRi from being in Kanye West's dressing room during his Watch the Throne concert in London (however, she couldn't stop her from hopping up on the stage with him).So does Kim actually have to be concerned about RiRi and Kanye? She's reportedly worried about the "We Found Love" singer being around her new beau because RiRi is a notorious flirt, and the sexy songstress might have a thing for men who are taken—there were tons of rumors that she and Chris Brown temporarily hooked up again even though he's been dating Karrueche Tran.Kim might also not be a big fan of Rihanna because she was recently linked to Rob Kardashian—perhaps the singer broke his heart while he and Rita Ora were on a break or something.And Kim Kardashian could simply be jealous of Kanye West hanging out with celebrities that are held in a slightly higher regard that she is—Kanye's musician friends are actually talented and artistic, and they would probably consider doing a reality show below them. Kanye really prides himself on being an artist and innovator, so maybe Kim is worried that he'll decide that he wants to be with someone more like him. Jay-Z has Beyonce (who allegedly wants nothing to do with Kim), so Kim might think that Kanye West would also prefer to settle down with a talented wife of his own that he can perform with. And Rihanna does happen to be another of the biggest female artists in the world right now.But Kim and Kanye do have some things in common, such as their love of fashion. Plus Kanye cares so much about Kim that he's even going to be on her reality show. So perhaps she should really try to trust him a little more if she wants their relationship to work.Do you think that Kim Kardashian needs to be worry about banning Kanye West from being around girls like RiRi, or is he so crazy about Kim that he'll happily stay away from other beautiful women?

Oscars producer: Baron Cohen’s ‘Dictator’ will appear on the red carpet
http://thenickyquba.com/2012/02/25/oscars-producer-baron-cohens-dictator-will-appear-on-the-red-carpet/
The Academy seems to have recognized that it’s better off with Sacha Baron Cohen at the Oscars than without him. Days after informing the ribald comic actor that his plans for roaming the red carpet as his character from “The Dictator” would not be a good idea, a producer of the show is saying Cohen is now welcome to use Hollywood’s biggest night to plug his movie, to be released May 11.

National Enquirer Whitney Houston’s death coverage sparks controversy
The National Enquirer angered Whitney Houston fans Wednesday and instigated a deeper debate on the coverage of her death after publishing a photo purportedly showing the singer in a gold casket. The cover photo was taken during the funeral in New Jersey, the tabloid claims, and has been republished by other media outlets, including Jezebel and Fox411, Sarah Anne Hughes of Celebritology reports:
It’s not known how the Enquirer obtained the photo. Requests for comment from Houston’s publicist and Whigham Funeral Home have not been returned.
Even without verification, the photo is shocking and disturbing. But it’s not surprising that it has been published.
The Enquirer published a photo of Elvis Presley in his casket on its cover in 1977. The issue sold 6.5 million copies, according to the Sun-Sentinel. More recently, a photo of Michael Jackson’s lifeless body was shown during the trial of doctor Conrad Murray . It was then republished in the media.
Despite the precedent set in the Presley case, Hughes believes a line has been crossed:
It seems highly unethical to me to publish a photo of this nature in the first place, but especially without permission from the person’s family. That seems to be the consensus on Twitter as well. But where should the line be drawn to begin with?
Houston’s funeral, held Saturday at a Newark church, was live streamed by the Associated Press with permission from the family. Celebritology embedded the live stream and then wrote posts about the service.
CNN, one of the cable networks to broadcast the funeral, averaged 5 million viewers during the 3 1 / 2-hour period when it took place, according to the New York Times. The AP’s stream had nearly 2 million unique visitors. Clearly, there was a demand to watch it.
The BBC was forced to defend its decision to cover the funeral service after it received 34 complaints, saying “it reflected the significant interest in her sudden death as well as acknowledging the impact she had as a global recording artist.”
Other media organizations have also caught flak for their coverage and commentary surrounding Houston’s death, says Emily Yahr of The TV Column:
Bill O’Reilly was in the headlines last week when he faced off with Matt Lauer over Whitney Houston’s death (O’Reilly said the singer “wanted to kill herself” while Lauer pointed out that addiction is a disease).
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie likewise had to defend his decision to lower the state’s flags to half-staff, the Associated Press reports:
A western Michigan man whose son was killed while serving in the military has burned a replica of New Jersey’s flag to protest that state’s decision to lower it in honor of performer Whitney Houston.
John Burri set the flag on fire Saturday on a grill outside his home in Wyoming, near Grand Rapids.
The 60-year-old Burri says lowering flags should be done for men and women who have given their lives in service to the United States.

Chicago SCREAMS PF NUNN !!!!!!!
PF Nunn works both onstage and in the mind of the audience, his performance is marked by traits common to most great cultural criticism-- an unflinching honesty and an unwillingness to accept society's conventions at face value. On "Are the Kids Sleep Yet?" PF shows that fearless deconstructive spirit manifests itself both in the topics of children-- homophobia, religious indoctrination, and aliens were just a few issues broached in this performance-- and the structure of the show itself, which eschews traditional stand-up tropes in favor of frequent detours, ruminations, and extended passages that don't even aim for laughs but PF nails the humor with finesse. SIMPLY FUNNY, by contrast, may simply capture PF and his microphone, but that doesn't mean his love of needling the status quo has been squelched. Great Performance!
