Looks like Tom’s career is not the only one going down.
Producers for Broadway’s All My Sons were hoping that having a big name celebrity in the show will help boost tickets sales, much like what Mario Lopez in A Chorus Line and Clay Aiken in Spamalot did.
According to news reports, ticket sales for Katie’s Broadway debut was far from what the producers expected. Producers are blaming the low ticket sales on Katie’s Dawson Creek days.
A unnamed source claims that “It’s not that Katie’s bad in the part. She’s good enough. The producers are just getting the feeling people still want to view Katie as sweet little Joey Potter.”
Like we would believe that; that show’s ancient history!
Jackie Green, a publicist “That information is totally false. There is a healthy advance for the show, and there is no chance of the run being shortened.”
Whatever. Don’t cover up for her.

Peaches Geldof will be squirming tonight as two exes come face to face with her new husband Max Drummey.

The Boomtown brat wed the Chester French rocker in Las Vegas earlier this month and plans to watch him play a central London gig this evening.

Also at the trendy Push club, held at the Astoria 2, will be her last love Faris Badwan and former flame Fred Les.

The pair are regulars at the weekly event which showcases cutting-edge new indie bands.

They are keen to slake their curiosity about Yank Max.

A source said: “Clearly they both want to know what Chester’s got that they didn’t have.”

If you want to know how to get some attention, just ask Danity Kane attention whore Aubrey O’Day. I guess she got wind of how much attention Lindsay Lohan’s been getting when it comes to being gay as she told Broadway.com “At this point in my life I wouldn’t say one way or another what my preference is sexually. The only thing I’m looking for in life is incredible passion and honest love, and if that’s with a girl, a guy, a guy that dresses like a girl, a girl that dresses like a guy, whatever the options are on the table, all I really operate on is the way I feel in my heart when it comes to love.” It’s either you’re gay or you’re not. There’s nothing in the middle. Unless of course you can say that you’re bisexual.

Hello Officer! Joe Jonas of the latest boy band sensation the Jonas Brothers popped some bubble gum in his mouth while dressed as an NYPD officer around New York City’s Columbus Circle last week. The almost 19-year old cutie directed traffic as he shot a new scene for the group’s 3D concert movie which will premiere on February 22, 2009. In another scene, Joe pretended to arrest someone and even slapped on a set of handcuffs on another cast member. Why does Joe play the mustache-sporting cop in all their videos? First the ‘Burning Up’ music video and now this. Maybe it’s some weird fascination of his.

Spice Girl Melanie Brown and music producer Stephen Belafonte are reportedly planning on renewing their wedding vows in a huge ceremony in Egypt later this year. The couple was quietly married on June 6, 2007 in Las Vegas, Nevada but after more than a year of marriage, they are ready to reaffirm their commitment. Her rep says “Regarding the marriage, Mel and Stephen have known each other for many years and were great friends first. Now they are deeply in love. The two are very happy together.” They were married quietly and now they’re having a big wedding. Expect a lot of big names to attend the celebration.

What’s in a name? well, James McAvoy and Emily Blunt are about find out. Both parties are now in talks to as they’re in talks to lend their voices to the title roles of Gnomeo and Juliet. The film is a cartoon version of the Shakespeare classic, produced by Miramax and Elton John’s Rocket Pictures.
McAvoy and Blunt will play two star-crossed (lovers) gnomes, whose love for each other is complicated by the fact that they’re from opposite sides of the veggie patch.
The Juliet was originally offered to Kate Winslet but she was forced to drop out due to scheduling conflicts.
The film’s producers originally planned and hoped for lyricist Tim Rice (The Lion King) team up who teamed with Sir Elton to write original tunes for Gnomeo. Instead, it looks like the film will mainly feature a number of Elton John’s classic songs. Rumors claim that some the songs to be used are “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart,” “Sad Songs” or “I Guess That’s Why They Call It The Blues”. They also are expecting John to write a couple of new tracks for the film slated for release in 2010.

There’s something wrong going in your life when you’re booked to perform at a country fair with a load of American Idol rejects. Vanessa Hudgens needs to rethink a couple of things. Visitors to the Midland County Fair in Michigan were treated to the sites of Vanessa, former Disney star Raven Symone and American Idol alum Bucky Covington. Vanessa sang a few songs from the HSM soundtrack. According to reports, Vanessa also “displayed dance routines more adult in nature than the audience of mainly girls 10 and younger.” At the beginning of her set, Vanessa said, “This is me, on my own terms.” Apparently, her terms suck. A concertgoer says Raven was better saying “She was really funny, talking to us about her childhood. Vanessa was more into singing, but she wasn’t funny. She was really serious, and we could see her get all sweaty, too.”

You scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours is something that Selena Gomez seems to believe in. After Kevin Jonas of the Jonas Brothers was spotted declaring his love via a Team Demi and Selena shirt, Selena is returning the favour. The 16-yera old Disney sensation and her on-screen older brother David Henrie recently created a YouTube video wherein they urge everybody to pick up the Jonas Brothers’ new album ‘A Little Bit Longer’. Selena says “Go buy their album. And if you’ve already bought it, buy another one. And if you’ve already bought another one, buy another one after that!”

Although many of the family members and friends attended Madonnas’s50th birthday but still she was ‘disappointed’ when many of her invited guests failed to turn up.

She exclaimed at her guests, “I am really disappointed”. She further added, “There are a lot of people who are not here, but thanks to everyone who did make it”.

Madonna hosted a sumptuous party at the elite Volstead nightclub in Mayfair.

In the end it was her husband Guy Ritchie who made her evening by presenting the birthday “girl” with Bulgari necklace and earrings worth $500,000. Madonna’s daughter, Lourdes, 11, also amused her guests by playing a sit musical Fame on a grand piano.

Solange Knowles claims people always think she is “high”.

The singer - the younger sister of former Destiny’s Child singer Beyonce - says her energy levels and sporadic speech patterns make people think she is on drugs. She said: “People think I’m high even when I’m sober.”

Solange also said she sometimes tells people silly lies to try to make them laugh.

She added: “I tell lies. Not proper lies, just little lies. I started telling them - jokes I should call them - when I was very young. I’ve always had a sense of humour but people haven’t always shared it.”

Solange recently revealed she has been diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), but refused to accept what she was told by her first doctor so went for a second opinion.

She said: “I was diagnosed with ADD twice. I didn’t believe the first doctor who told me and I had a whole theory that ADD was just something they invented to make you pay for medicine but then the second doctor told me I had it. I guess I was in denial. I don’t understand exactly what it is. The symptoms seem to apply to everyone around me in the industry - loss of memory, starting something and not finishing it.”

Britney Spears is turning out to be really good in comedies. There’s that stint she did on ‘How I Met Your Mother’ and now she has two new hilarious 2008 MTV VMAs commercial featuring host Russell Brand and herself. A source tells E! “It was mostly ad-libbed, with Russell asking her for advice about hosting the show. There’s also a 9,000-pound elephant in it, as in ‘the elephant in the room.’” The VMAs will air live from Paramount Studios in Los Angeles and one-time only in its original format on Sunday, September 7, 2008 at 9PM Live ET and Tape Delayed PT.

Madonna has asked Givenchy to design outfits for her upcoming world tour. The French fashion house has confirmed its head designer Ricardo Tisci will be creating Madonna’s wardrobe for her ‘Sticky and Sweet’ shows.

Givenchy spokeswoman Caroline Deroche-Pasquier revealed Givenchy Haute Couture has made the 49-year-old pop superstar two outfits.

It is believed Madonna will wear one of the Givenchy ensembles when she opens the show.

Tisci, who is renowned for his gothic influence and use of dark fabrics, is delighted to be working with Madonna.

He said: “I feel incredibly fortunate to have been given the opportunity to offer the world of Givenchy Haute Couture to Madonna the Icon, the Artist, the Woman for whom I have so much respect and admiration.”

The first outfit - said to have a ‘Gangster Pimp’ influence - features a black satin coat trimmed with jet beads and a black satin waistcoat with a corseted back.

Tisci’s second creation - which has a ‘Gypsy’ theme - consists of a long hooded taffeta cape with a fuchsia lining and a black dress with multi-coloured ribbons and pink metal chains.

Another day in Hollywood can only mean another celebrity gets divorced. But in a slightly different twist, I won’t bother telling you the gruesome details of divorce papers because this celebrity is already divorced. The Dixie Chicks’ Emily Robinson and her Bandera cowboy rocker hubby Charlie Robinson are over. They’re not separated or just getting divorced, it’s already a done deal. A rep says that they remain close friends and that their family is the priority and will continue to be. The divorce filing states that their marriage had become “insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities.” The couple was married back in 1999 and they have 3 children together.

If you said you were having American Idol auditions, you would expect a lot of people to show up right? In the case of Puerto Rico, forget it. American Idol held one of their typical open call auditions in San Juan, Puerto Rico recently and instead of the usual capacity crowds that line up practicing their awful renditions of tired Whitney Houston standards, El Nuevo Dia reports that only around 300 hopeful fool turned out. In contrast, 7,000 wannabes camped out overnight at auditions held in Northern California last month. In other words, don’t expect any of the current American Idol champs to come out with any Spanish-language albums anytime soon.
