50 Cent has a dog named Oprah. 50 Cent’s dog, Oprah, has a Twitter account. This post is starting to sound like a Dr. Seuss book written from Cell Block C, but we’re having a hard time reacting to all that’s going on in that photo. I mean, Oprah even has a broken leg — and you know how we feel about animals in casts! More »
First The Simpsons‘ Characters, Now Oprah? – Either as a viral part of her epic “going away” media event, or some weird Internet meme that has caught on, there is now a site where you can “Oprah-fy” yourself. But can you give a member of your studio audience a free car? (via Urlesque)
M.I.A. Is Sort Of Becoming A Monster – Besides getting totally wasted during her shows, she’s now attacking Lady Gaga because she’s jealous that Oprah likes Gaga and “snubbed” the Sri Lanka-born singer.

Any closet Tom Cruise fans out there? Come out, it’s OK! I’ll admit: I am a believer in the star power of the Greatest Movie Star Of All Time. My debate partner — Daniel Holloway, national news editor at Back Stage — thinks he sucks, even going so far as to proclaim: “Maverick is dead.”
Fighting words! Our arguments, below:
Erin: Tom Cruise lacks his sex appeal of yore but he is still a screen god. If I had to select any… More »

We take no pleasure in saying “We were right” but…we were right. On last night’s Celebrity Apprentice, Donald Trump selected Bret Michaels and Holly Robinson Peete as the final two contestants on the reality show, and they’ll both square off in next week’s finale with the help of eliminated contestants as team members. So, just as we predicted, Bret will be in the finale, and he will be live on stage with The Donald, if he can medically make it… More »
Can’t get to TV to watch the cast of the latest Twilight movie, Eclipse — Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Dakota Fanning — on Oprah today? Don’t worry, Crushable’s deputy editor Amanda Ernst is parked in front of her TV and is going to be live blogging the show. Refresh often for up-to-the-minute updates as they happen. More »
Girls and their mothers are losing their collective shit over the approaching release of Twilight: Eclipse, the way they have been since Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart first shared their forbidden passion on (and off) screen. Now that Oprah has the cast on her show, she’s going to make them do something that seems actually downright dangerous: Have R-Patz and Taylor Lautner knock on the doors of houses that are filled with screaming, prepubescent Twilight fans. Isn’t that like actually… More »
Real Housewives of New York City’s Bethenny Frankel gave birth yesterday — and in a cruel twist, ex-friend and fellow Housewife Jill Zarin “inadvertently” broke the news to the world on her Facebook page that Bethenny and husband Jason Hoppy had welcomed a boy. Oops, was she ever wrong. Bethenny’s publicist later confirmed the couple had a girl, Bryn. (Pop Eater, Pop Crunch)

Excuse us, because our jaws just dropped to the floor. Tonight’s Costume Institute Gala Benefit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art celebrated the “American Woman” — and, as expected, a swarm of starlets vying for best dressed showed up to mug for the cameras. There was Kate Hudson, sporting tasteful cleavage after a week of covering up her altered chest in ponchos! There was happy couple Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel, squashing all those silly breakup rumors (hahaha Cameron Diaz… More »
Robert Pattinson is getting the Oprah treatment May 13 – Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Dakota Fanning will also be on hand to promote Eclipse. Hot.
Crushable contributor Rachel Tepper talked to Kitty Kelley at the D.C.-based book party for her unauthorized biography Oprah. When asked about being blackballed by media outlets who feared Oprah’s wrath, Kitty said:
“Thank God for the internet! I’m not whining…It makes me believe in democracy.”
Yay for the Internet! Where we can watch videos of dumb cats, read a harrowing account about creepy fashion photographer Terry Richardson and win cool prizes.
Kitty, you always have a safe haven on Crushable. Also, her book?… More »
When Disney announced last week that unknown British actor Sam Claflin would be joining the cast of the next installment in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, we rightly thought, “Wha?” Who is this good looking 23-year-old actor pretty much plucked from obscurity to play “the key role of Philip, a youthful missionary,” alongside the inimitable Johnny Depp? Claflin has just a couple of professional projects under his belt, although not one has yet to air. Still, he has worked with some huge names in the industry — a credit to his natural talent, connections or a hardworking agent. More »
More dirt from Kitty Kelley’s tell-all book about the Queen of Daytime television, the newest reveal is that even Oprah doesn’t think too highly of herself at times. We’re still working through the former assistant’s book ourselves, so if there’s any more juicy revelations like this one, let us know.
She was going to talk in detail about the men who had abused her, and she was going to name all of her abusers. And she was going to lay great… More »
Stories about Kevin Huvane, who’s a partner at the mega-firm Creative Artists Agency, never get old. Although he lacks the near-mythic status of rival superagent-to-the-stars Ari Emanuel (otherwise known as “Ari Gold” on HBO’s Entourage), Huvane’s talent roster is no less impressive: after all, he’s got Jennifer Aniston, Tom Cruise, Sandra Bullock and OPRAH. So he wins, but then again, Huvane ALWAYS wins. (Zing!)
Huvane, a tabloid gossip fixture, has surfaced in today’s Page Six, which reports he was a big… More »
