Posted on February 28th, 2008 by Hot Momma

Michael Jackson may save Neverland Ranch from auction afterallMichael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch is supposed to go up for public sale unless he pays the more than $24 million he still owes on the property, according to a Tuesday court filing. Financial Title Co. filed the notice of trustee’s sale with Santa Barbara County Superior Court, setting the auction date for March 19.  Julie Wagner, a manager at the San Francisco-based title company, confirmed that Jackson’s property was set for auction.

Court documents obtained by Fox News warn Jackson that he has until the date of the auction to take action to keep his lavish estate.

However, after speaking with a Jackson insider, CNN reported Wednesday on their Web site that the pop star will avoid foreclosure on his Neverland Ranch property with a new loan.

Michael Jackson’s ranch will not going to be auctioned off at the courthouse,” the Jackson insider told CNN. “The financing is all being worked out.”

A spokeswoman for Jackson did not return a call for comment.

If the property does go to auction, the initial asking price could be higher than the $24.5 million Jackson owes because of interest due and other costs, according to the filing.

Also going up for sale would be all the home’s furnishings and items on the property, according to the filing.

Jackson no longer lives at the famous, 2,500-acre spread in Los Olivos, a popular tourist spot northwest of Santa Barbara known for its wineries.

The reclusive pop star has been mostly residing abroad since his 2005 acquittal on child molestation charges, although he has spent time in Las Vegas as he tries to stage his musical comeback.

Amy Winehouse needs to go back to rehab fast!

Posted on February 27th, 2008 by Hot Momma

Amy Winehouse needs to go back to rehab fast!Amy Winehouse is quickly returning to her old sad ways since leaving a rehab clinic a few weeks ago. And her friends are so worried about her, they are begging that she go back to rehab.

A source said that Winehouse:

“was smoking cannabis and drinking heavily as soon as she left rehab. That has now increased. Everyone who’s seen her in the last week or so has been really disturbed by the state she’s in. She’s getting back to her worst. It was hoped her new album and fashion range would keep her focused but it hasn’t worked.”

Supposedly even her incarcerated husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, has threatened to ban his wife from visiting him in jail because he’s convinced she’s still on crack cocaine.

Adding to the worries, Amy has recently been spotted with scratches on her arms and mysterious marks and spots on her knuckles. Wino has a troubling history of self-harming while being high on drugs.

A friend of Winehouse said: “Amy’s in an awful state again — she’s clearly on drugs. Many of us think full-time residential rehab is the only option but she won’t go back.”

This was bound to happen. It’s just common sense that you can’t treat a crack and/or heroin addiction in two weeks!  But I suppose in that time you can get a singer sober long enough to perform at a couple big award shows but then what? It’s going to be more difficult to get Amy back to rehab without a Grammy Awards appearance to dangle as a carrot this time.

Nicole Kidman’s rep refutes wine drinking rumor

Posted on February 27th, 2008 by Hot Momma

Nicole Kidman’s rep refutes wine drinking rumorNicole Kidman’s rep has gone on the attack on behalf of her client at a recent report the pregnant actress was downing white wine at this Sunday’s Academy Awards.  Kidman, 40, announced that she was expecting her first child with her country music star husband Keith Urban, 40, last month.

New York Post columnist Cindy Adams wrote yesterday: “Boozing backstage during the Oscarcast is a no-no. But if you’re pregnant Nicole Kidman it’s a yes- yes. She wanted white wine. She got it.”

But Kidman’s rep has fired back, insisting the allegations aren’t true, saying: “Not true. She drank lemon zinger and water and was nursing a very bad cold.”

The rep, Catherine Olim of PMK, also sent this statement to Perez Hilton, blasting Cindy Adams. “I have to tell you that Nicole Kidman most certainly did NOT drink white wine or any other alcoholic beverage backstage.

“She had water and lemon zinger tea. That’s it.

“I know, I was there with her I cannot remember that last time that Cindy Adams got anything right. She’s an idiot, and you can quote me.”

We stayed away from this story yesterday waiting for a response by Nicole or her rep, and we’re glad we did!

Albus Dumbledore actor is a ladies man off screen

Posted on February 27th, 2008 by Hot Momma

Albus Dumbledore actor is a ladies man off screenMichael Gambon plays JK Rowling’s gay wizard Albus Dumbledore in the Harry Potter movies, but he’s a straight up ladies man in real life. Page Six reports that the 67-year-old actor is currently leading a double life. He has been married for 45 years to Lady Anne Gambon, but he’s also carrying on a relationship with 42-year-old Philippa Hart, who gave birth to his baby last May.

Michael splits his time between his home with Lady Anne and Philippa’s London home.  A friend of Lady Anne’s said:

“She is friendly and chatty, though she has never once mentioned anything to do with Michael’s mistress or the baby. But she happily talks away about him and which new part he is playing . . . I can’t imagine she can be pleased with the situation, but she seems to put up with it and I’d say she definitely still loves him. Maybe she realizes the only way to keep him is to let him lead this rather odd double life.”

The chain-smoking, white-haired actor, moved out on Lady Anne and into a bachelor pad a few years back, but recently reinstated himself in the marital home in Kent, while still remaining close to Hart. Gambon even celebrated his return by buying a pair of sports cars for himself and his wife - a Mercedes for Lady Anne and a sleek black Audi R8 for himself that he’s cheekily christened “Teutonic Viagra.”

If I were Lady Anne, I think I would do something very unlady like about this situation.

Jessica revealed that while she was happy she didn’t flub her lines or trip on her dress while recapping the winners of the Scientifical and Technical Achievement awards, she did nearly fall offstage. She said:

“I did have a stumble backstage outside of the green room. Cash caught one arm the other hit the floor.”

She added: “Luckily all the photogs were taking pics of Cameron D.”

Jessica described the Oscar experience as grand because she loves Jon Stewart and the Daily Show is one of her big favorites.  She was also rooting for Javier Barden, Diablo Cody, and Marion Cotillard. and raved about meeting young Ellen Page describing Juno as one of her favorite all time movies.

Jessica who is in her third trimester, confessed that she and fiancé Cash Warren ditched the Governor’s Ball and the rest of the after-parties.

“We opted for sweats and In ‘N’ Out burgers,” she writes. “Being preggers kind of takes the fun out of partying until the wee hours. Sleep always sounds so much better these days.”

Jessica also describes her current mood as “blissful” and signs off “JAY-EH.”
