This is Johnny Vieira, the talent-spotter who is suing Vanessa Hudgens for $5 million after claiming he helped launch the High School Musical starlet's career.

Vieira claims he entered an agreement with the then aspiring star to make her famous back in May 2005, which meant they would "share equally" the rewards from her showbiz career.
He says she ditched him once she landed her role as Gabriella Montez in the blockbuster High School Musical series.

In legal papers submitted to LA Superior Court, Vieira included a signed photo allegedly from Vanessa declaring: "Without you I would be nowhere. We WILL make it BIG."

Vieira, now with J.O.T.S Productions/Records and developing a reality show, hopes to resolve the legal matter soon and refuses to accuse the HSM star of personally betraying him, saying "She's a sweet girl. It's probably just the people around her."

Lindsay Lohan Mania!

Sherlock Holmes has left Manchester, England and we caught up with Jude Law on the set in Brooklyn, New York. The 36-year-old actor, who plays Watson, had just filmed a fight scene that left him with a bloody ear.

The film, directed by Guy Ritchie also stars Robert Downey Jr. as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "Sherlock" and Rachel McAdams as "Irene Adams."

Crash? What Crash?


Just hours after the Manchester United star wrecked his Ferrari 599 GTB, Cristiano Ronaldo is back behind the wheel. The Portuguese footballer was spotted driving his Bentley after practicing with his Premiere League team.

Although the European Player of the Year walked away from the crash unharmed, he may still face an police inquisition about the cause of the crash. There are concerns that he was possibly speeding and/or racing a teammate.

Kelly Osbourne Glows As She Skips Around L.A.


Kelly Osbourne was looking on the right side of adorable when we spotted her going into a medical facility in Beverly Hills. Not only was her dog the perfect accessory, but Kelly took the time to look up, smile, and wave on her way in. That seems so... not like her.

Kelly's come a long way, but she's still not perfect: she did take the time earlier this month to comment on Peaches Geldof and say that she has more "class," claiming that "I feel sorry for Peaches - I feel like it was such an attention thing."

So I take it these two don't hang out much. . .

Jogging Jake Gyllenhaal


Jake Gyllenhaal is doing his best to keep that buff Prince of Persia body. We spotted the 28-year-old out for a run with his personal trainer this morning wearing a sleeveless Adidas shirt.

Do all you ladies like Jake's "buff-er" look? I know girlfriend Reese Witherspoon does!

When people aren't discussing Karolina Kurkova's missing belly button, they seem to be obsessing over the Victoria's Secret model's weight gain.

I know, right about now your thinking to yourself, "you must be crazy, what weight gain? She looks great!" And I agree! But you and I are normal human beings. We lack the discerning eye (and the cold heart) of fashion designers, writers, and those so-called runway experts who would rather drive millions of young women to eating disorders than have someone who looks like a real woman wear their designs.

So it is with this un-obtainable body image that the Czech supermodel starved herself, cutting carbs and working out for hours everyday to keep up with the likes of the Klums and the Limas when in fact she may be suffering from a medical disorder, not a portion size problem.
According to an insider, Kurkova joins the ranks of 27 million Americans who suffer from the thyroid disorder hypothyroidism, which interferes with the body's metabolism.
Ha! Take that anorexic model pushing fashion Nazis! I hope that calling a sick woman "fat" haunts you to your grave, which, with the way the economy makes your products completely useless, comes very soon.
