Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are set to make $21 million from their upcoming wedding.
The couple - who have 11-month-old daughter North together - will tie the knot in Paris on May 24 and are reportedly "cutting deals left and right" in order to profit from their lavish nuptials, even though the event won't be filmed for Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
A source told In Touch magazine that the 33-year-old reality TV star is allowing the E! network to capture "everything leading up to and after" their big day. "She's taping everything else so she can get things for free in exchange for the exposure. They realized how much their wedding was costing, so they told E! they wouldn't allow parts of it to be taped unless the network offered them more than $15 million, which is what Kim got for her wedding to Kris [Humphries]. Her mom couldn't help herself either. Kris [Jenner] is trying to get them another $4 million for their wedding photos," the source explained.

Justin Bieber wants to be the "man his mother raised."
The 20-year-old singer has spoken out to defend himself over allegations he tried to take a woman's cell phone because she tried to take a photograph of him while playing mini-golf, insisting the "truth" will out and admitting he sometimes struggles to "take the high road" while constantly being judged and "harassed" in public. Alongside a screengrab of a TMZ report stating an employee at Sherman Oaks Castle Park insisted he never tried to rob anyone, Justin tweeted, "It is hard to defend myself and my privacy every moment of the day. Then to see rumors. The truth will set u free [sic]."
"My mom raised me to be kind to others. I get judged, harassed, and I try to take the high road. Sometimes it isn't easy. But we keep trying... I will continue to be the man my mother raised. I love people and I will try to be kind even when things are not fair. Don't believe rumors... [sic]," he continued.

Jay Z is no longer seeking extortion charges over his old recordings.
Producer Chauncey Magan was detained last month after the "99 Problems" hitmaker's label Roc Nation accused him of stealing master tapes in 2002 and demanding $110,000 for their return, but as the rapper doesn't want to pursue charges, Los Angeles police are no longer investigating the case. However, according to TMZ, LAPD officers will hold on to the recordings until a civil judge tells them otherwise.
Mahan - who was interning at Roc Nation when the recordings were made - previously claimed he had been asked by the record label to keep track of the music because the 44-year-old star was just "a stupid kid smoking blunts" at the time, and was reckless with his intellectual property. The producer also insisted he repeatedly told Roc Nation he had the masters - which include "I Just Wanna Love U (Give It 2 Me)" and "Holla" - over the last decade and only requested the money when he could no longer afford to pay the storage fee.
He claims he only asked for the cash as compensation for keeping the recordings for 12 years in Northridge, California.

Kelly Rowland has gotten married.
The former Destiny's Child singer and her manager Tim Witherspoon tied the knot in a secret ceremony in Costa Rica last Friday, it has been claimed. "It was a quick, simple ceremony - only around 30 people," a source told Us Weekly. Among the guests were Kelly's former bandmate Beyonce and her sister Solange.
Although the nuptials haven't been confirmed, Beyonce had posted a photograph to her Instagram account on the big day wearing what appeared to be a bridesmaids dressed but was captioned only, "'Good morning."
Speaking last December, 33-year-old Kelly admitted she and Tim had been engaged for some time: "He put a ring on it. It's been a while. We've kept it very, very low - for years, to be completely honest." Kelly also revealed her boyfriend of four years proposed on Skype while she was in Bulgaria. "He put a ring on it! He asked me first on Skype and I was like, 'We're so far away from each other.' But it was so late, I remember we were both just kinda like, honestly, just staring at each other ... and he asked me, and it was just that simple to say yes," she said.

Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg will marry later this year.
The View host and the New Kids on the Block star got engaged last month, but won't be waiting too long to tie the knot, as she hopes to do so in New York "soon." She added to E! News, "I will say fall of this year!"
The blonde beauty already knows who she wants to design her wedding dress - and it'll be more upmarket than what her bridesmaids will wear. When asked who will design her dress, she said, "Gucci, yes. Gucci, maybe." She then jokingly added, "[The bridesmaids will wear] Forever 21, for sure.''
And the 41-year-old star will have plenty of company walking her down the aisle. When explaining who will be bridesmaids, she said, "[My sisters], all the comedians on the Dirty, Sexy, Funny tour and Donnie's sisters.''

Jennifer Lopez has decided to go vegan.
The 44-year-old singer, who was a vegetarian for a brief period some years ago, has completely changed her diet by removing all animal products in an effort to stay in shape but admits she's missing butter.
"Being vegan, it's basically no dairy, no meat, everything is plant based and from the ground. Butter is the one thing I miss!" she said in a recent interview.
The "I Luh Ya Papi" hitmaker claims she would encourage others to go vegan and cut out meat, eggs, dairy products and other animal-derived ingredients all together, because it makes her feel good: "You do feel better. I do recommend the vegan diet because you wake up and feel great!"
Meanwhile, the singer, who has six-year-old twins Max and Emme with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, loves being an adult and having a family but admits she still sometimes feels as though she's a young singer.

Solange Knowles “Overreacted” to Jay Z’s Comment
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Meltdowns, Rumors,
Solange Knowles reportedly attacked Jay Z after she "overreacted" to something he said.
The 27-year-old singer "flipped out" at the rapper, 44, in an elevator at the Met Gala after-party in New York last week because she was offended by a comment he made. "Solange flipped out over something Jay had said, that she took the wrong way. She took it too hard or too far. Not sure what it was, but she greatly overreacted," a source said.
Solange was caught on surveillance kicking and clawing her brother-in-law as they left the bash held in the Boom Boom Room at The Standard Hotel in New York City, last Monday. Jay didn't appear to retaliate as the brunette beauty screamed in his face, but he did attempt to hold her hands down as their bodyguard struggled to hold her back.
Beyonce appeared to stay calm and collected throughout the scuffle and watched on helplessly as her sister violently attacked her husband.

Chris Martin Was “Hard to Live With”
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Divorce, Rumors,
Chris Martin was "hard to live with" before he split from Gwyneth Paltrow.
The former couple - who have children Apple, nine, and Moses, eight, together - split last month after 10 years of marriage, and insiders claim the Coldplay frontman's insecurity caused a lot of their problems.
"Chris is very tough on himself and that can be hard to live with. There was a time a few years ago when there were a lot of fights. He and Gwyneth had a great life but it was like he couldn't quite see it and couldn't commit to it. There were other issues that sparked off that and, ultimately, they ended up leading very different, very separate lives," a source said.
Now they have gone their separate ways, Chris and Gwyneth both want the best for one another. "They have both given each other their blessing to move on. I think they both want each other to find love and happiness," the source added.
