Naomi Campbell Hates Turtles

Naomi Campbell may through assaulting people but doesn't mean her wrath ends there. Next up on Naomi's list are turtles! That's right poor, defenseless, endangered turtles are in danger according to environmentalists and Page Six.
The angry supermodel has conservationists in an uproar over her plans with former beau Flavio Briatore to open a five-star casino/hotel with 40 apartments in the Indian Ocean resort town of Malindi - which is also a coastal sanctuary for rare turtles. "This would have a very negative effect on turtle nesting," Athman Seif, director of the Malindi Marine Association, told the Times of London. "The lights would confuse the turtles and send them heading off in the wrong direction."
Jesus, is there a famous hot chick that Flavio Briatore hasn't banged? Seriously, look at his resume Heidi Klum, Campbell, Elisabetta Gregoraci, and Adriana Volpe! Oh and killing turtles is bad.

Is Britney Spears going to appear on the Emmy's this weekend? Us Weekly seems to think so and their source says she could be gearing up to give an apology for her failed VMA comeback performance.
Yes, according to an Emmy Awards show source, who tells Usmagazine.com that Fox network brass were "in negotiations" with Brit's camp as of Thursday afternoon to get her on this Sunday night's annual telecast. The source adds that while her appearance has not yet been confirmed, "the idea is to have her come on and apologize for the VMAs. She's weighing the offer."
I really can't decided if this is a good idea or not. On one hand it would be great to see her take some responsibility for her actions and behavior over the last few years and on the other, getting up on stage and saying "I'm sorry y'all" sounds really forced, contrived and really pointless. What's she going to get up their and apologize for? Not taking the opportunity seriously? Flashing her baby maker to everyone? Wearing awful wigs? Update: Britney Spears will NOT be appearing on the Emmy's, Us Weekly has the scoop.
"Britney Spears has no plans to appear on the Emmys this Sunday," a spokesperson for Jive, Spears’s label, tells Usmagazine.com. According to an Emmy Awards show source, Fox network brass were "in negotiations" with Brit's camp as of Thursday afternoon in an attempt get her on the television awards show’s annual telecast.
Smart move Britney. Don't let people use you for their own gain. Get your act together, get you sh*t right and figure out how to piece your life back together behind closed doors. She would be better off doing a sit-down with MTV (with a REAL stylist and a manager present) and answering all of our questions truthfully and honestly.

Is OJ Simpson A Thief? Update: Yes, He Is...Sort Of

oj_simpson.jpg

Everybody's favorite "Not Guilty" double murderer Orenthal "OJ" Simpson has been named as a suspect in the break-in of a Las Vegas casino hotel room involving the theft of some sports memorabilia.
The break-in was reported at the Palace Station casino late last night, police spokesman Jose Montoya said. He said investigators determined the break-in involved sports collectibles. "When they talked to him, Simpson made the comment that he believed the memorabilia was his," Montoya said. "We're getting conflicting stories from the two sides." Simpson was released after he and several associates were questioned, but he is considered a suspect in the case, Montoya said. He is believed to be in Las Vegas.
Alfred Beardsley, the memorabilia dealer who reported the theft has in his collection several pieces of Simpson memorabilia, mainly the suit OJ was wearing when he was found not guilty of the murder of his wife Nicole Brown Simpson and waiter/friend Ron Goldman. I bet The Juice was just checking the room to see if the "real killers" were staying there or he was researching the sequel to "If I Did It." Update: OJ has admitted to taking the memorabilia but says it wasn't a break in and that auction house owner Tom Riccio gave him access to the room.
"Everybody knows this is stolen stuff," Simpson said. "Not only wasn't there a break-in, but Riccio came to the lobby and escorted us up to the room. In any event, it's stolen stuff that's mine. Nobody was roughed up."
OJ goes on to claim it was part of a "sting operation" to get his crap back (only so Fred Goldman can take it from him). Hey OJ, aren't sting operations conducted by the police and not by suspected murders and Heisman winning hall of fame running backs?

Christina Pops Out For Dinner

splashnews_spl2572_003.jpg

Pregnant Christina Aguilera was looking more than swell as she stepped out last night with her shy hubby Jordan Bratman. Though it appears that it's not only Christina's belly that is expanding at a great rate! I believe that may be the largest natural cleavage walking Hollywood at the moment. Check out the video to see how pleasant Christina is towards the paps, she truly has a charming nature. The couple were dining at Toscana Italian restaurant in Brentwood, California.

Nicole Cookbook Causes Backlash

splashnews_spl2634_001.jpg

A new cookbook is poking fun at Nicole Richie and her super skinny body. Hollywood publicist Robert Smith has written 'The Nicole Richie Cookbook' - a collection of the stick-thin star's all-time favorite recipes... only the 60 page book is completely blank!! The book has become a cult hit on the internet as the headline screams: "Kick-Butt Weight Loss Secrets and New Book About Hollywood's Skinniest Celebrity!" It goes on to describe the book as: "Introducing the Nicole Richie Cookbook. Each chapter is jam packed with Nicole's favorite recipes. It even has a fake testimonial that reads: "This is the only book I've read from cover to cover. It's a real page turner that I couldn't put down. RS." And it finally adds: "This cookbook makes a fun gift and will definitely bring a smile to your family and friends." But Smith now admits he is feeling the backlash after fans became furious that he was poking fun at her weight and is insisting he will donate any proceeds from the $11.99 book to an eating disorder charity. I bet it wasn't the money spinner he was bidding for.
