The 42-year-old single mother who wowed the judges on The X-Factor last night has actually enjoyed quite a bit of success in the entertainment business already. But her story seems less dramatic that way, so they left that part out. More »

Snap This: Erika Christensen Looks Nervous at the Scientology Party
There’s no need to be on edge, Erika Christensen. We’re just as confused as you are about why paparazzi were allowed to come in to the 42nd annual Scientology Center gala in Hollywood last weekend, when usually your faith keeps everything hush-hush. The Daily Mail says that you can thank John Travolta and Kelly Preston for inviting the photogs in. More »
Jeff Conaway (Kenickie from ‘Grease’) Is in a Coma
Sad news: Jeff Conaway, best known as playing Danny Zuko’s (John Travolta) right-hand man Kenickie in Grease, has been in a coma for a week after he was found unconscious at his home. Doctors say the cause is an overdose of painkillers and that the chances of him recovering are unlikely. What’s interesting is that the article went to great lengths to explain the plot of Grease, perhaps assuming that many readers had not seen the classic movie. So whether you have only heard about it or have seen it hundreds of times, here’s one of the fun musical numbers featuring Conaway and others. More »
Will Scientology Help Kirstie Alley Win ‘Dancing with the Stars’? No, But Mormonism Might.
Does Scientology translate into ballroom skills? Probably not.
According to Popeater, Kirstie Alley thinks that Scientology will give her an advantage on Dancing with the Stars, and she’s reportedly trying to convert her dance partner, the smoking hot Maksim Chmerkovskiy, to the religion.
It’s hard to know if Scientology will help a contestant on DWTS, since not many Scientologists have competed on the show. The only other one I can think of is Priscilla Presley, who finished in eighth place in season 6 with partner Louis Van Amstel – it’s certainly not a bad showing, but not a win either. More »

Scientologists Unveil ‘Scientology Newsroom’
Today we got an email in our inbox from Tommy Davis, the International Spokesman for the Church Of Scientology. Why did he think to send US a message? Weird!
Anyhoo, Tommy has unveiled a “Newsroom” for members of the media. The mission: “To provide journalists worldwide with 24/7 news on the Church of Scientology’s explosive growth – whether it’s the opening of a new Church (eleven across six nations have cut the ribbon in the last year alone), or the full story… More »
The Great Tom Cruise Debate: Movie Star Or Madman?
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 »

Crushable Confessional: I Think I Dated A Scientologist
Scientology isn’t just a celebrity religion — the practice extends to regular Joes as well. And I think I dated one of them, back in 2005. He was a low-level producer for a talk show, and lived in a spartan apartment in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg neighborhood; we went out for about two months, and he was funny and charming at first — but eventually he became quiet and intense, like he was holding something in. He was cagey in conversation, dodging… More »

Peaches Geldof’s Naked Photog Changes His Tune For Tabloids
It’s weird how I’m late to the game on stuff like this, but Ben Mills – the guy who slept with Peaches Geldof and posted pics of it on Reddit – recently sold his story to the tabloid News Of The World. You’d think selling a salacious piece like this would include tons of dirty details, but instead much of the original story has been edited and watered down. Like hey, there’s no more mention of heroin or Scientology anywhere… More »
Peaches Geldof Is Looking…Well.
Look, we know there’s been some not-so-nice stuff said about you recently Peaches, but that’s no reason to just give up the ghost. You don’t need to add the “Jesse James’ girlfriend” look onto an already Scientology-and-heroin ruined reputation.

Bad Romance: I Finally Have Something In Common With Peaches Geldof
Three weeks ago, I went out on a date with a guy I barely knew. He used to live with one of my college friends post-graduation in a giant loft in Williamsburg with two Puggles, and even though he had a girlfriend, my college friend would constantly whisper to me “Ben really really likes you.” That was in 2006, and up until a month ago, I hadn’t heard from this guy again. Three weeks ago, we were going to Hasidic Purim parties and he was buying me live birds before our second date. And today, naked pictures of him with celebutante Peaches Geldof appeared all over the Internet. Why can’t I ever go for the normal dudes? More »
Scientology Could Have Saved Anna Nicole
John Travolta has decided to use the death of Anna Nicole as a platform to promote Narconon – the highly controversial Church of Scientology drug rehab program – saying it could have saved the Playmate’s life.
A toxicology report from Smith’s autopsy has not been completed yet, but methadone and other drugs were discovered in the Florida hotel room where she died earlier this month and is highly suspected as the actual cause of death.
Travolta, 53, who worked with Smith on… More »
Love is in the air – along with a bit of stinch
I’ve just returned from a much needed long weekend break where I refused to watch the news, answer cell phones and touch a computer. Albeit, when I returned, the first thing I did was rush to the computer to see who was hooking up, who got married, who might have been born and who was trashing who in the media. Sure enough, I found exactly what I was looking for…
