Kim Kardashian Considers Pressing Charges Against Flour-Bomber

 Kim Kardashian has apparently changed her mind about her recent flour-bomb incident. A day after telling the press that she won't file a complaint against the woman who dumped a bag of white flour on her head, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star confessed that she's now considering to press charges.

The estranged wife of Kris Humphries discussed the issue when talking to Giuliana Rancic and Ken Baker of E! News. "I said earlier no I wasn't," she admitted. "I am just going to think about it, because I don't want someone to think they can really get away with that. So we are going to handle that."

"Now that I think about it and had some time to digest it," she continued on, "I think, 'What if that was some other substance? What if that person had a dangerous weapon?' It's scary. And what's even scarier is this woman acted as if she was a part of the press. She just came out of nowhere! And so we are definitely changing things up a little bit, amping up security, taking some measures, and...I'm gonna definitely deal with it because it is not acceptable."

Speaking of her initial reaction, the 31-year-old said, "I was laughing it off earlier and, you know, I think that is the only thing I knew how to do at the time." She went on to point out, "But I just think it is such a shame that someone like that...would ruin an event, or attempt to ruin an event, that was based around, not only my fragrance, but this organization, Dress For Success."

"I mean that's what the event was about," she stressed. "These women flew in from all over the country to be a part of this event, that are underprivileged women, that really got the shine taken away from them a little bit. That's why I am calling in now. I feel bad that it was kind of derailed from that."

Asked how she managed to clean up the mess and return to the red carpet within minutes, Kim responded, "I have no idea. I didn't think it was that bad until I saw the pictures today and was like, 'Wow, there was so much powder on me,' or flour, or whatever it was! But, as soon as I got in the elevator, I said, 'Guys there are a ton of people that are paying money to be at this event.' "

"My mom was using a blow dryer trying to get it out of my hair," she recounted. "My whole jacket was wet, because you know we were making sure it didn't look like it was white. She was wetting it down and I said, 'I don't care. Wet or not I'm just gonna put this back on, get all this powder off and go back down there and finish the event. We're not going to let this ruin it.' "

Kim was flour-bombed when hitting the red carpet for the launch of her new fragrance, True Reflection, on Thursday, March 22 night. She was talking to the press when a younger woman, who is described as short and Asian, came between the reality star and her publicist, and dumped the flour on her. The woman was detained by hotel security, but has since been released.

Angelina Jolie Breaks Silence on Leg-Baring Oscars Pose

 Angelina Jolie has finally addressed her bizarre leg-baring pose at the 84th Annual Academy Awards. Weeks after sparking media frenzy by constantly sticking her right leg out of her dress at the Hollywood event, the longtime partner of Brad Pitt told The Huffington Post, "I honestly didn't pay attention to it. You know what I mean?"

"I don't watch those TV shows and if I go online and see something about myself, I don't click on it. And the people I surround myself with don't really talk about that kind of stuff," the 36-year-old beauty added with a laugh. "I heard something, but I didn't pay any attention. It's as simple as being a woman picking a dress you like and having a night, and not really thinking about anything else."

Jolie became the center of attention at this year's Oscars after she showed off her right leg through the slit of her black velvet Versace gown on the red carpet and on the stage when presenting Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Screenplay. Her leg quickly became a trending topic on Twitter, and even spawned an account called "Angie's Right Leg".

The "In the Land of Blood and Honey" director's stance got more attention after "The Descendants" writers Nat Faxon and Jim Rash struck similar pose when accepting their Best Adapted Screenplay prize. Many speculated they were mocking the actress, but the writer duo denied it. Rash, in particular, said, "Really, it was a loving tribute and nothing but."

Report: Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake Plan to Have a Big Wedding

Words on the street are, Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are not holding back on the celebration when they are tying the knot this coming August. Us Weekly has just brought out more details about the engaged couple's upcoming wedding, revealing that their wedding will be a big one.

Though 30-year-old Biel and 31-year-old Timberlake are known as a notoriously private couple, a source told the publication, "They have lots of people they want to invite." While the twosome allegedly have decided to get married in California, they remain undecided on the venue since they will need a place that offers plenty of room.

As for her wedding planning, Biel is said to have got a helping hand from Timberlake's mother, Lynn Harless, who's "helping [her] with every little thing." Us Weekly further noted that the former "7th Heaven" actress still has Monique Lhuillier as her first choice when it comes to her dress. A so-called friend of her added, "Monique Lhuillier has sent over some sketches."

Words that Timberlake has popped the question to Biel came out back in early January. Us Weekly at the time claimed that the two got engaged in December 2011 while they were up in the mountains of Jackson, Wyoming. Days later, his grandmother confirmed the engagement rumors, clarifying that the proposal was actually done in Montana.

Biel was reportedly spotted wearing her engagement ring while attending a "Saturday Night Live" after-party in February. She allegedly showed it to Amy Poehler and Kristen Wiig who "loved the ring and chatted [Jessica] up about it." In early March, she was seen wearing the ring when enjoying a late lunch with Timberlake and another couple at Brentwood eatery Tavern.

Bootleg Version of 'Breaking Dawn II' Teaser Trailer Found

The first full teaser trailer of "The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn Part II" has arrived in the form of a bootleg version. More than 15 seconds longer that its sneak peek, the promo video offers a close-up look at Bella as a vampire complete with her blood-red eyes. Near the end of the preview, a footage of Bella going deer hunting is teased.

The official teaser itself made its debut attached to the midnight theater screening of "The Hunger Games" on Friday, March 23. One fan, Joanna Cruz, shared her reaction to MTV News, "I'm speechless. I really don't know what to say about that. It was so quick. It didn't even give what was going to go on in the movie, all we saw was the red eyes."

Another fan, Esther Portyansky, commented, "I think the 'Twilight' trailer was really interesting. Usually trailers are more about the plot, but I think the people that are gonna watch know what happens in the last one so it was more character shots and getting people's attentions. Vampire Bella was very beautiful. I liked the red eyes."

"Breaking Dawn Part II" picks up where the first part left off, right after the birth of Bella and Edward's daughter, Renesmee, and the transformation of Bella into a vampire. With the arrival of Renesmee, the Cullens and their allies are now facing the impending battle against the fearsome council of vampire leaders, the Volturi.

Due to open wide in theaters across the United States on November 16, this final installment of the "Twilight Saga" series has Bill Condon serving behind the lens and Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner returning as Bella, Edward and Jacob respectively. Mackenzie Foy will make her debut as Renesmee.

Big Studios in Bidding Wars for 'Twilight'-Inspired Story 'Fifty Shades of Grey'

 After the success of "Twilight" movie series, major studios are fighting over the rights to turn "Fifty Shades of Grey", a story that started out as a fan fiction of the Stephenie Meyer novels, into a movie in hopes to score big when it hits the big screen. Those who get in the middle of the bidding wars include Universal, Sony, Paramount and Warner Brothers. HBO, however, is rumored to have refused to join the pitch.

Inspired by teen romance between Edward Cullen and Bella Swan, the story was written by British writer E. L. James, mother of two who works as a TV executive. Described as "a mommy porn," it revolves around a dominant/submissive relationship between a billionaire named Christian Grey and a naive college student named Anastasia Steele.

Offering a much darker story than that of "Twilight", the material was originally titled "Master of the Universe" and posted on a fan fiction website for a free reading. Due to its highly positive responses, it's then printed and yanked off the free story-sharing site. It now has been turned into three books including "Fifty Shades Darker" and "Fifty Shades Freed".

Top executives from most of the studios reportedly have met James and her literary agent Valerie Hoskins for negotiations. Accordingly, the teams delivered presentations, some of them were highly elaborate, to explain why they are the best candidates to handle the project. All the offers are exepected to be submitted to the sellers by Friday

Top-notch movie makers like "J. Edgar" producer Brian Grazer, "Rock of Ages" director Adam Shankman and "The Break-Up" producer Scott Stuber are said among those who are interested in the project. They allegedly are scheduled to meet the sellers later in the week.

"I think it will get insane," one producer predicted the bidding number. "It will go for an upfront fee between $3 and 5 million."

Pitbull Fires Back at Lindsay Lohan: Her Allegations Would Lead to Absurd Results

 Pitbull has responded to the lawsuit launched by Lindsay Lohan last year in complaint to his "Give Me Everything" lyrics which mention her name. The rapper claims through his attorneys that the accusations made against him are threatening free speech rights, so sustaining them "would lead to absurd results."

"The use of a celebrity's name in any work of art -- such as a song, poem or painting -- would trigger liability," the defendant explains. "Indeed, if Ms. Lohan is allowed to proceed with her claim, every recording artist could be gagged and prevented from expressing his or her thoughts in songs, including the other recording artists who have referred to Ms. Lohan in their songs but whom she has not sued."

Giving an example to support his defense case, the "Hotel Room Service" rhymer includes a footnote which points out that the "Mean Girls" actress has been mentioned in Eminem's 2009 song "Same Song & Dance", yet she doesn't sue the Slim Shady. In his song, Marshall Mathers raps, "Hello Lindsay you're looking a little thin, hun'; How about a ride to rehab?"

The "International Love" MC additionally notes that fellow artist Ryan Seacrest whom he also mentions in the "Give Me Everything" lyrics doesn't complain about the song. Instead, the "American Idol" host invited him to make a live performance in Times Square on "Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve 2012".

Lindsay accused Pitbull of causing her pain and mental with his song "Give Me Everything". He, however, insisted that he never meant to "defame, degrade or hurt someone's career." He once explained, "You see the way I start off the record, where I say, 'I took my life from negative to positive/ I just want y'all to know that' - when I mention Lindsay Lohan in the record, it was really a positive message."

Katy Perry Denies Dissing Beyonce and Shakira: F**k You All Press

 Katy Perry was clearly furious at the media for making a false report. Soon after she's rumored to have dissed fellow singers Beyonce Knowles and Shakira, the pop singer took to Twitter to set the record straight.

"F**k all y'all (press) dat thinks I dissed anyone, puhlez, u havin a slow news day or what?! Get a life, cuz it's not mine! #hoodratcominout," she posted before following it up with another angry note, "If ya ears are filled with wax it's time to get a cleanse boo."

Katy was claimed to have dissed Beyonce and Shakira by implying that their duet record "Beautiful Liar" was not iconic. She reportedly launched the diss when confirming to BBC's Radio 1 that she's working on a collaboration with Rihanna.

"We've collaborated on a lot of things, but just not songs yet. It's one of those things that's got so much build up that we have to deliver. I want it to be like that Eurythmics and Aretha Franklin song 'Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves', not 'Beautiful Liar'," she said as quoted by the Mirror.

She allegedly added, "But I definitely want to do something that is so iconic. Rihanna's kind of busy too. We're both busy but we planted the seed two years ago. How disappointed would you be if that song came out and it's no good? Sometimes you have to wait for greatness."

During her visit to Radio 1, Katy managed to make a live performance. Wearing a Yankees cap to pay homage to Jay-Z, the "Part of Me" singer channeled her inner rap star and delivered "Ni**as in Paris", Jigga's single with Kanye West.

Disney Claims to Lose $200M From Mega-Budgeted 'John Carter'

 "John Carter" is close to become a movie that suffers the biggest box office flop of all time. On Monday, March 19, Walt Disney Pictures announced that it expects to lose $200 million on the mega-budgeted Barsomian epic movie, which cost an estimated $350 million to produce.

"In light of the theatrical performance of 'John Carter' ($184 million global box office), we expect the film to generate an operating loss of approximately $200 million during our second fiscal quarter ending March 31," so the studio stated. "As a result, our current expectation is that the Studio segment will have an operating loss between $80 and $120 million for the second quarter."

Weighing in on the issue, president of the box-office division of Hollywood.com, Paul Dergarabedian, said that "John Carter" is likely to be placed in the Hollywood's all-time biggest money-losers. "Unfortunately for 'John Carter', the story became all about this massive budget," he said, as quoted by Los Angeles Times. "The movie will take one of the biggest losses in recent memory."

Another expert, Harold Vogel, who is the president of Vogel Capital Management said, "This is a little unpleasant episode or scratch." He added, "Disney is so much larger than all of this, they can easily absorb the loss and go on and have many, many good years in the future. It's the equivalent of a ding on the side of your car. You wish it didn't happen. But at the end of the day, the car drives fine."

Though suffering a great loss from the Taylor Kitsch-starring movie, Disney is still optimistic to collect a massive gross from its other upcoming releases. "As we look forward to the second half of the year, we are excited about the upcoming releases of 'The Avengers' and 'Brave', which we believe have tremendous potential to drive value for the Studio and the rest of the company," the studio hoped.

Receiving mixed reviews from critics, "John Carter" grossed a so-so $30.1 million domestically on its opening weekend. In its second week since it was released in the U.S. on March 9, the Andrew Stanton-directed film collected only $13.5 million, dropping 55% from the prior week.

I don’t have body for item number – Sonam Kapoor

 She is slim, tall and pretty, but Sonam Kapoor feels she can’t do justice to a saucy and pacy item number.

“I don’t have a body to do an item number. I am slim, trim and healthy but I don’t have the grace and style and all that requires a little time to develop. I am a little young right now,” Sonam said at an event here.

The fashionista’s dancing ability were seen in “Saawariya”, “Delhi-6″ and “Aisha”. But she doesn’t have any hit dance number to her credit so far.

However, she loves Bollywood’s “Munni” Malaika Arora Khan among the string of actresses who have grooved to item songs in recent times.

“Malaika Arora. She is the Helen of our generation. If anybody can do an item number, then it is Malaika. She is superb. Nobody can beat her. She is fantastic,” said Sonam.

The actress is currently busy shooting for Rakyesh Om Prakash Mehra’s “Bhaag Milkha Bhaag”, in which she will share screen space with Farhan Akhtar.
