Love Bird Alert™: Chris Brown and Rihanna hook up!

Publication: Star
Date: 30 June 2011

If we are to believe Star, always a risky proposition, Chris Brown, the pop singer who became the exactly wrong kind of super famous for beating up his then girlfriend Rihanna, has "hooked up" with her again in the recent past.

Just for the record, when the young people say "hook up", they don't mean get together for a cup of coffee.

Fresh trash tomorrow! Last trash of the week... right now!

Welcome to gossip hell, Chris Brown! A few years back, he was dating fellow pop singer Rihanna, but he became famous for beating her up. He was on Good Morning America last month and got upset over being asked questions about the incident. Now, everybody and their uncle has been asked to comment on the new incident, so it only makes sense his ex-girlfriend is one of the people who is asked for her comment.

One small piece of advice for Mr. Brown. The phrase "I'd hit that" is a figure of speech.

Bad Help Alert:Hollywood stylists get serious about the dish!

I am ambivalent about bad help alerts.

Nannies blabbing to the gossip rags about kids? I disapprove.

Stylists blabbing about hair, make-up and wardrobe? Oh, somebody make some popcorn, this is going to be fun!

Star devotes a huge amount of their cover to dirt about celebrity beauty secrets, some questions given as "Guess who?", which means you will have to buy the magazine yourself to find out because I refuse to open these things unless under serious duress, and several stories where they name names. Here are all the headlines.

• Hollywood stylists tell all the flaws, the fakes, the fights
• Who has a closet just for Spanx?
• Who duct tapes her boobs?
• Who waxes her freaky toes?
• Who has to be sewn into her dresses?
• Who steals from her stylist?
• LeeAnn (Rimes): Starving for attention
• Rihanna: Seeing red
• Jen (Aniston): Finger fungus
• J. LO: Squeeze play (She is the boob duct taper.)
• Camille (Grammer): Closet confidential
• Bethenny (Frankel): Zit fit
  

I only know the boob duct tape story because Star put it on the front page of their website. As much as I might want to know who waxes her freaky toes and who steals from her stylist, I do have rules, and I obey them slavishly except under the most extreme situations.
