WEEKEND UPDATE: OCTOBER 16-17-18

HOLY WEEKEND!
....that makes it sound religious.
Well, KELLY CLARKSON is in town, so it IS like a holiday! The restraining order is fully in effect!
....I kid, I kid, someone actually called and asked me last weekend if I really had a restraining order and I do not...but funny that you actually think that to be the case.
or maybe its sad?
ANYWAY, Kelly, tomorrow (Saturday) at the Covelli Centre in Ytown...some tickets still available!

SUNDAY UPDATE: Kelly show rocked last night, I think the Columbus show was just a weeeeee bit better back in the summer, she was much more talkative to the audience then...crowd was a little weak last night (except for the screaming of the girl behind me), I gotta tell ya...one of my favorite parts was when Kelly did "Seven Nation Army" during the encore. That was great as was the mash-up of the Alanis and Kings Of Leon tunes...goooooood stuff!
Did you go? Whatcha think? Drop me a note or shoot me a call this afternoon from 3 to 7!

MORE LETTERMAN STUFF....
The "New York Post" reports that DAVID LETTERMAN took his mistress, STEPHANIE BIRKITT, on vacations with his wife, REGINA LASKO, and their son Harry.

Obviously, Regina thought nothing of it at the time...especially since other friends and co-workers would come along, too. But looking back on it now, she's pretty upset.

The official line on Letterman's infidelities has always been that they were before he and Regina were married, and before Harry was born. But it's starting to sound more and more like this affair didn't end until recently.

As we all know, the whole thing came to light because Birkitt's angry ex-boyfriend Robert Halderman...a producer for CBS's "48 Hours"...allegedly tried to blackmail Dave over it.

Various sources are saying that Halderman first found out about the affair in December...but he decided to stay with Birkitt after she promised to break things off with Dave.

But then Halderman found the two of them making out in a parked car in the driveway of the Connecticut house where Halderman and Birkitt were living.

So he dumped her and cooked up the extortion plot...not for the money, but for REVENGE.






USHER...BABY-MAMA DRAMA!
USHER filed a police report on Friday, claiming that his estranged wife, TAMEKA, scratched up his truck after they got into an argument on the phone over custody of their kids.

Police investigated, but didn't find any evidence that Tameka had anything to do with it. Tameka's rep says she wouldn't have scratched the truck, because it's in HER NAME.






DRAKE IS READY TO WRITE AGAIN...
"Best I Ever Had" by Drake has been out for months, but we still have no CD from him. He was in the middle of writing it when he fell and busted his leg at a show in July.
DRAKE is almost fully recovered from the knee surgery he had last month, and he's ready to get back to work on his upcoming debut album, "Thank Me Later".


Drake is hoping to have the album ready for a February release.

He flew out to Los Angeles last weekend to get a change of scenery...because he couldn't write much while he was stuck at home waiting for his knee to heal.

He said, quote, "I've been out of the scene for so long because I've been off my leg. Sitting at home in your apartment and having a doctor come over every day and eating healthy and going to the gym...there's not much of a rap album to be made off that.

"I have to get my inspiration and start seeing things and going to dinners and meeting people again and just finding stories to tell for this album."







TOP 5 FEMALE SEXUAL FANTASIES...
Guys, we may think we're the only ones with perverted sexual fantasies. But the truth is that women are just as filthy-minded as men. I, for one, am perfectly OK with this. And the stuff that turns them on is just as taboo.

Listen to the top five female sex fantasies, according to a female "sexpert" from the website GetFrank.com:

#1.) Making a sex tape: If this one IS true, you're probably wondering why your girl shot down the idea when you brought out the video camera.

Well, some women are worried they won't look good on camera. And some are worried their documented grind session will make its way to the Internet. Let's face it...it's a legitimate concern.


#2.) Having a sex slave: Believe it or not, the idea of having someone take care of their every sexual whim actually appeals to most women. Shocking news, right?


#3.) Sex with two men: Guess what, guys? You're not the only ones who fantasize about a threesome. But just like you, she's thinking about doing the nasty with multiple partners of the OPPOSITE sex...meaning two DUDES.


#4.) Sex in public: Whether you're a man or a woman, the thrill of getting caught with your pants down is pretty universal.


#5.) Safe rape: I know, it seems messed up that women would fantasize about RAPE. But, apparently, some women like the "safe rape" scenario because it frees them up to do dirty things they wouldn't otherwise...because "it's not her fault."







I DO *NOT* BUY THIS....
A recent survey found that the average guy molests himself about two or three times a WEEK. OK, that part I totally believe. But listen to THIS insanity...

According to a recent survey from PsychologyToday.com, nearly TWO in FIVE women...or 38%...say they've only performed "manual relations" ONE TIME in the last YEAR.

ONE TIME?!?! I don't buy that for a second...you're probably just too embarassed to admit it...come on, it's ok!






IN CASE YOU WONDERED FILE...
ABC has ordered full seasons for four of their new shows: "FlashForward", "Modern Family", "Cougar Town" and "The Middle". That is all.






KATY P: UNPLUGGED
So MTV decided to invite KATY PERRY to record one of their "Unplugged" sessions earlier this year...and the results are about to be unleashed.

"MTV Unplugged: Katy Perry" will hit stores on November 17th. It'll be a CD / DVD set, which includes rearranged versions of "Waking Up in Vegas", "Thinking of You" and her TIMELESS classic, "I Kissed a Girl".

There's also a previously unreleased track called "Brick By Brick" and "Hackensack", a FOUNTAINS OF WAYNE cover. The DVD will include exclusive interview footage.







MARIAH'S BDAY CAKE FOR NICK CANNON...
Well....I guess we know why she's with him!!!

CHRISTINA AGUILERA...
I hear we can expect a new CD from her early next year. This little tidbit of Xtina-ness hit the 'net the other day:
She says: "If I had a choice between viewing a naked man or a naked woman, I'd choose the woman. We're just naturally sexier and more beautiful to look at."
YEAH!!!!!

X-tina...who bursts many a lesbian's bubble by adding, quote, "I'm attracted to men ultimately...I'm married and I love my husband and I love what we do together."






RIHANNA: THE WAIT IS OVER...
The wait is over!!! For whatever it was that we were waiting for. (???) Yesterday, RIHANNA opened up a Twitter account and posted this message: "The Wait Is Ova. Nov 23 09." The same message appears on her official website.

Everyone is assuming that this is the release date for her next album, but no one has confirmed that yet. Last week, her producer, Tricky Stewart said that he thought Rihanna's album would be out before the end of the year.

But he also said they hadn't recorded anything for it yet.

I don't believe that...from what I hear, we're getting a new Rihanna single THIS WEEK on Q92...maybe I'm not even allowed to tell you that...oops! Just be listening (probably Tuesday)!

ABC has confirmed that RIHANNA will perform on "Good Morning America" on November 23rd. She'll be singing the first single from her next album.




MISS JACKSON IF YA NASTY...
On November 17th, JANET JACKSON will release a greatest hits compilation called "Number Ones". That's the same title as the MICHAEL JACKSON hits disc that's been selling like crazy ever since he died back in June.

Janet's "Number Ones" will feature 33 songs...drawing from her debut album, "Control", all the way up through her recent single, "Make Me".







SOCIAL NETWORKING SHTUFF...
FACEBOOK USERS ARE WEALTHIER THAN MYSPACE USERS


Something happened a few years ago on the Internet when millions of people stopped using the "cyber ghetto" that is MySpace, and started using Facebook instead.

At least it SEEMS like that's what happened, considering a new study has found that Facebook users are WEALTHIER than MySpace users.

According to the study, 23% of Facebook users have a yearly income of at least $100,000. But just 16% of MySpace users make that much.

At the same time, 37% of MySpace users earn less than $50,000, while just 28% of Facebook users do.

Overall, rich people are 25% more likely to use Facebook than MySpace, while poor people are 37% more likely to use MySpace than Facebook.





FERGIE LOVES FOOTBALL...GO FERGIE!
The Miami Dolphins are adding yet another celebrity to their list of minority owners.

FERGIE from the BLACK EYED PEAS will join Marc Anthony, Gloria Estefan, Jimmy Buffet and Venus and Serena Williams as part owner of the team.

This is all basically a marketing ploy on the part of the Dolphins to attract a more diverse crowd. You're not going to see Fergie making draft picks or anything. Her "ownership" basically just means she'll make appearances at home games...and maybe she'll sing the national anthem at some point.

In related news, RUSH LIMBAUGH has been DUMPED from the group that's trying to buy the St. Louis Rams...because his inclusion was causing too much of a distraction to their efforts.







MORE IN CASE YOU WONDERED...
If you're a huge fan of the Fox Reality Channel...and chances are, you're not...then you'd better enjoy it while it lasts, because it's coming to an end.


Wednesday, Fox announced that the Fox Reality Channel would end its four-year run on March 31st. No specific reason for the cancellation was given. I'm willing to bet they can't sell commercials.







POOR LEONA LEWIS GOT ATTACKED THIS WEEK...
LEONA LEWIS was attacked during an autograph signing Wednesday.


Leona was signing copies of her new autobiography, "Dreams", at a bookstore in London. About an hour and a half into it, a man in line assaulted her.

Some reports say he slapped her...some say he "punched her in the head"...and others say he slapped AND punched her.

One person who was also in line told reporters, quote, "[The man] walked up there with the book, she signed it and, as she looked up, he just punched her. She was running out with her hand over her eye...and I just saw a man on the floor."

The attacker...who has only been described as a 29-year-old male...was immediately taken down by Leona's security team. He was later arrested on "suspicion of assault." As of last night, he was still in custody.

No one seems to have any idea WHY this happened. According to witnesses, the man didn't say anything before hitting her.

Fortunately, Leona is fine. She did go to the hospital, but only "as a precaution."

In a statement, her rep said, quote, "Leona was the victim of an unprovoked attack. The police were called immediately and medical attention has been sought. Leona is understandably shaken and apologizes to the fans she was unable to meet."

Well, big surprise: It turns out the dude is INSANE...literally.
British authorities have confirmed that Kowalczyk is no longer in police custody...instead, he's been involuntarily admitted to a psychiatric ward. He'll remain there until a court hearing on October 26th.











JOHN MAYER-NESS
"New York" magazine asked JOHN MAYER about PRESIDENT OBAMA being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize...in an obvious attempt to fish for a good quote. And they got one.

He said, quote, "What's he going to do, send it back? It's like I'm getting a wrongful bulge in my pants and everyone's thinking I've got a nine-inch (rhymes with sock).

"I'm not going to argue with them, I'm going to let them think I have a nine-inch (rhymes with sock)." He added, quote, "If someone gave me the Nobel Peace Prize, and I didn't deserve it, I would just shut my mouth and enjoy the hell out of it."






TAYLOR SWIFT TO DO "SNL"...
Thursday, NBC announced that TAYLOR SWIFT will be both the host and the musical guest for the November 7th episode of "Saturday Night Live".

("SNL" Fun Fact: Apparently only three other people have pulled double duty like that before. They were Justin Timberlake, Janet Jackson and Sting.)

So it's pretty obvious that she'll probably poke fun at KANYE WEST, who rudely interrupted her at the "Video Music Awards" last month.


Well, Taylor is hinting that she might...quote, "I've been thinking about skit ideas for a long time. There are definitely some hilarious things that have happened to me over the past couple of months that I think will be pretty substantial skits."







GAGA ANNOUNCES SOLO TOUR...BUT ITS NOT COMING HERE! :( :(
It'll be called "THE MONSTER BALL", and Cleveland's own KID CUDI is opening for Gaga! That's right, the opener is FROM Cleveland, and so far, no Cleveland date announced! GRRR!
Detroit is the closest...peep the list:

*********2009 AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS NOMINATIONS*********
Yesterday, the nominees for the "37th Annual American Music Awards" were announced...and this year, TAYLOR SWIFT leads the way with SIX nominations. (And since you're probably curious, KANYE WEST received ZERO.)

Coming in second was MICHAEL JACKSON, who scored five nominations, including Artist of the Year and Favorite Male Artist in both the pop / rock AND soul / R&B categories.

He was also nominated for Favorite Album in both those categories...for his greatest hits compilation, "Number Ones", which came out in 2003. (If you're confused, "AMA" nominees are picked based on music sales and radio airplay.)

ABC will air the ceremony live on Sunday, November 22nd. There's no word on a host yet, but JIMMY KIMMEL has done it in five of the past six years.

This year's performers will include: Alicia Keys, the Black Eyed Peas, Jennifer Lopez, and "American Idol" runner-up Adam Lambert. More acts will likely be announced leading up to the awards.

Once again, the winners will be chosen by YOU. Voting is open NOW at AMAvote.com. You'll have to provide an email address to register before casting your vote. (Here's the direct link...)
