Kristen StewartDespite comparing paparazzi to rapists, Kristen Stewart likes being famous.

The actress admits fame does make her life easier, especially in her professional life.

“The fame makes my life so much easier where it’s most important to me, because I get to do really awesome projects right now. It looks much crazier on the outside than it is.”

However, the 20-year-old star doesn’t want to court the attention and avoids social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter because she thinks they are narcissistic: “It’s just too connected. They can just basically reach out and touch you.  I feel about the most interesting thing about me is that I do these movies. More than that. It’s just complete narcissism. You start giving stuff away - then they’re not going to stop asking.  There’s not a satisfied point that you can ever reach, so why start.”

Kristen recently credited her family for helping her reach where she had, and noted she was glad not to find herself in the same situation as troubled actress . “My family are amazing. I had, like, the perfect upbringing. It sucks for people like Lindsay Lohan, but it’s not her fault that she’s so off the rails - and she’s smart, very smart.”

Miley Cyrus and Liam HemsworthDespite the loads of people criticizing her own provocative style, spares no expense when it comes to criticizing her boyfriend’s fashion sense.

The 17-year-old singer-and-actress confesses her gay best friend has far better style than her boyfriend , and she gets annoyed when the Australian actor wears surfing shorts when he isn’t anywhere near a beach.

“I have a problem with people who are wearing board shorts when they aren’t going to the beach and Liam is constantly in surf trunks. He just wears trunks all the time. My best friend is gay, so it doesn’t help. He’s always decked out and really hot and then I see my boyfriend and I’m like, ‘I kinda want that one. Even though you don’t like me, I really like you!’”

The teen star - who has been dating Liam since they met on the set of movie The Last Song - also confesses her friend has more in common than her than 20-year-old Liam does: “My best friend is way cuter and way more fun and wants to do everything I want to do, so that’s the difference.”

Recently Miley revealed she loved her boyfriend because of his positive nature. “He gives the best comments when asked about our relationship. He’s smart, positive and non-judgemental.”

Glenn Beck and James Cameron

is a f**king a**hole. I’ve met him. He called me the anti-Christ….and not about Avatar, he hadn’t even seen Avatar yet. I don’t know if he has seen it ... I think, you know what, he may or may not be an a**hole, but he certainly is dangerous, and I’d love to have a dialogue with him ... He’s dangerous because his ideas are poisonous ... I couldn’t believe when he was on CNN. I thought, what happened to CNN? Who is this guy? Who is this madman? And then of course he wound up on Fox News, which is where he belongs, I guess.”

-Director , speaking at an Avatar DVD publicity event, addressing questions about the right-wing’s reaction to the film’s environmental themes. (You can listen to the audio after the jump.)

Kevin Smith

Warning to companies everywhere: Don’t ever piss off popular celebrities with a Smodcast and a Twitter account.

According to director Kevin Smith (Clerks), he was asked to get off a flight from Oakland to Burbank yesterday because he was deemed too big to fit into his single seat. This Southwest Airlines ejection has since turned into a PR disaster for the low-cost airline.

Despite his insistence that he fit comfortably in his space (he says he “fit between the arm rests & was able to buckle his seat belt w/o an extender”), Smith stated through his active Twitter account that he was told that he “wasn’t going to be allowed to sit there” because he was “a safety risk.”

Ashley Greene in her casual fare had a “mini-breakdown” over the scrutiny her wardrobe received.

The 22-year-old actress admits she still feels uneasy that fans of the - in which she plays Alice Cullen - view her as a role model but refuses to put on an act to please other people.

“There was a moment in time where I was kind of having this mini-breakdown because it was all very new, and it was all being thrown at me really quickly, and I was going, ‘Why are people reporting on this? Why do people care what I’m wearing or what I’m eating, and why are people looking down on me because I’m not wearing high heels?’ That’s the downside to being in the public eye. When girls come up and say, ‘You’re my role model,’ it’s really flattering, but it’s also really scary because I’m not perfect and I’m going to make mistakes. I’ve just decided that I have to continue to live my life and do what I do. Hopefully, people love me because of who I am, not who I pretend to be.”

The actress was working as a waitress when she landed the role and is still amazed at how quickly her life changed because she hasn’t yet had time to reflect on her success.

Frances Bean and Courtney Love during better timesAlthough Courtney Love initially appeared to be tight-lipped when the news broke that she lost custody of her daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, the troubled musician has now broken her silence.

No stranger to blasting ludicrous remarks on Facebook, Love used the social networking site to spew hateful thoughts about her 17 year-old daughter, whose father was the late Kurt Cobain.

“I hate to sound cold but any kid of mine who pulls this s**t has lost her position… she was deceptive, she lied and she’s lying to herself… My daughter is not always honest. The fact is fbc [Frances Bean Cobain] is deluded.  She thinks she has all this money. The point is I have all the money she has. Frances is clearly deluded that she can buy her grandmother a small house in la [Los Angeles]. I’d love to see how that works. They’ll incubate her [sic] til shes 18 and then have her sign all the [sic] indnemofications.”

This is not the first time Love has lost custody of Frances Bean; Love’s lawyers assure that she did not have a drug relapse and the matter was simply Frances Bean’s decision to live with her grandparents over her mother.

In the end, however, Love ends her internet tirade with words that somewhat resemble that of a woman showing motherly care (despite what she had said previously).

Having trouble remembering the pop culture events of the past year? Then here’s a catchy recap for you.

Although clips related to the Heenes, the Gosselins, Speidi and Nadya Suleman can be quite nauseating, the autotuned score - with samples from , Lady Gaga and Christian Bale - at least makes this 2009 review palatable.

Alec BaldwinThe Drama King is back. Alec Baldwin has recently revealed that he will be leaving Hollywood when his contract expires in 2012. It seems the Mayans were right - the world really is coming to an end.

“I don’t have any interest in acting anymore,” Baldwin explained. “Moves are part of my past. It’s been 30 years. I’m not young, but I have time to do something else.” Like a stint on , an NBC summer reality series two of his brothers participated in last season.

It gets even weirder from there. “I consider my entire movie career a complete failure,” added. So, he also saw The Marrying Man. “I’ll tell you why. The goal of moviemaking is to star in a film where your performance drives the film, and the film is either a soaring critical or commercial success, and I never had that.” Ah, but Beetlejuice will live on in pop culture for ever.

So, the most successful Baldwin brother says he’s through. Anyone care?

Courtney LoveCourtney Love Cobain’s on , and if you ever check out her Wall you’re going to see a lot of weird $***. Some of her recent writings are so off-the-wall, the social networking site might need to come up with more upgrades. It all began with a rant on actor and ex-boyfriend Edward Norton, with whom she called it quits around a decade ago.

Love was ranting about “my will” when she wrote “needs altering as it has Edward in it and Norton doesn’t have a CLUE how evil his own BM is he wont (expletive deleted) a future Senator/Film Actor but hell purposefully refinance Kim Cobains Property i bought her cash outright…” It goes on from there, getting stranger and stranger until it winds down with “oh yeah Norton just LOST 300k.”

But that’s even the really (expletive deleted) crazy part. Courtney then goes on to talk about .
