Madonna had concert venue toilets removed, scrubbed down and reinstalled
Madonna has always been a quirky lady. To the best of my knowledge, no one has ever accused her of being easy going or overly-accommodating. And considering how easy it is for her to back up her demands, she’s probably forgotten where the normal/bat-freaking-crazy line begins. Not that it would stop her, but it might help her tone it down. According to the classic “insider sources” (which I think most likely means “disgruntled crew) she had all the toilets taken out, sanitized, and reinstalled be

Madonna Wears Bath Robe Through Airport Security
Madonna was photographed last night in her bath robe as she went through security at the airport in Berlin, Germany.  I am not sure if the ‘Material Moron’ was sleep walking or trying to make her way back to the room of Alex Rodriguez.

Britney Spears is back. Or at least she will be – in some capacity. The pop star will again openMTV's Video Music Awards, which will broadcast live from Los Angeles's Paramount Studios on Sunday night (9 p.m. ET). But unlike last year, where Spears delivered a memorable (and critically derided performance, the pop star is not expected to perform on the show.)

Tiny 'Handbag' dogs born into cruelty
The pint-sized bichon frise has a diamond-studded collar and luxury pink sweater in her wardrobe. Bichon frise, as dog enthusiasts may know, means 'curly lapdog' in French, and Daisy certainly fits neatly on Coleen's lap, under her arm or in her handbag. Such is the popularity of 'handbag dogs' that designers such as Ralph Lauren, Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabbana and Gucci have responded by making dog carriers that resemble handbags costing from hundreds to thousands of pounds. Geri Halliwell is rarely

Celeb Quote Of The Day: Guy Ritchie
