An American Idol contestant from the current season of the popular show that climbed the ranks to finish in third place is the topic of discussion all over the web after he was eliminated from the show, leaving only two contestants remaining. Lee Dewyze and Crystal Bowersox will battle it out for the chance to claim the winning spot on season 9 of American Idol. His departure has left some people searching more deeply about his background, which as a quick search reveals is far from exemplary. Casey James has had prior arrests in both 2001 and 2002 related to drunk driving, for which he served time. He has also been in trouble with the law for driving with a suspended license and in a reckless manner. There is no denying that there is pattern in this former star’s checkered past. Just prior to joining the American Idol cast, James had spent time in jail for a reckless driving charge.

James failed to woo American Idol judges in his last performance, and his departure from the show doesn’t seem to be particularly shocking. The latest issue of Star magazine features a mugshot of Casey James from the time of his last arrest. You can pick up a copy to view it for yourself.

Megan Fox is in the news once again, this time after topless photos of her leaked online from the set of her new movie Passion Play. Fox stars alongside Mickey Rourke and Bill Murray in the film, which showcases the story of a trumpet player who saves Fox from the hands of a gangster. These photos are believed to have been taken with a cellphone, although they say seem to be of a fairly decent resolution. It is unclear who managed to snap the pictures on the set of the film.

The actress was apparently unaware that the photos had been snapped until she was asked about them during an interview for the magazine Allure. Fox responded with a outburst, threatening the person behind the cellphone camera with physical harm. She claims that she takes her professional life very seriously, and that she’s not vying for attention from the paparazzi and media. During later parts of the interview, Megan indicated that she wasn’t exactly absorbed into the Hollywood culture. She’s not the typical Hollywood starlet that likes to be complimented on her talents.

Topless photos of Megan Fox have leaked online in the past, most notably during the filming of Jennifer’s Body. It is unclear whether legal action will be pursed against the photographer who took the pictures.

The influence the starlet wields on the younger female population is disturbing, largely due to the fact that youngsters might decipher the wrong message from her behavior. According to various publications, Miley’s release of sexual tension caught the eyes of some young kids at the party where the incident took place. The parents of these children were swift to have them removed from the display of vulgarity.

Cyrus stirred some controversy last week when her latest music video, “Can’t be tamed” hit television. This music video was considered a departure from Cyrus’ previous forays into the music scene, particularly because it had a very Britney-esque look to it. Perhaps its just coincidental that the release of the song nicely coincided with this incident.

With the Miley Cyrus Lap Dance Video all over the net, there is some speculation that Miley Cyrus may have had a sexual affair with Shankman. This is not the first time that Miley has been seen in photographs with Shankman in a less than angelic pose. In 2009, Shankman himself leaked photos of the starlet giving him a lap dance while in a dressing room. To say there relationship has gone above and beyond a professional one is an understatement. You’d expect more from a 45 year old man who is well respected in the film industry.

As for Miley, it should be utterly clear at this point that she is a train wreck waiting to happen. This type of behavior at 17 years of age is completely unacceptable and the damage she could be doing in a celebrity-obsessed society could be unprecedented.

The folks over at Coed Magazine did some Googling and released a list of the 50 Most Popular Women on the Web, among the names Miley Cyrus and Kim Kardashian. Instead of using traffic metrics, the magazine looked at the number of competing pages indexed in Google containing the celebrity name to determine where it should rank on the list. This is obviously not the most logical way to do things, especially when popularity on the web is more appropriately defined by traffic. Anyhow, it’s still quite impressive to see just how much these celebrities are talked about online. Number 50 is Eva Longoria, and at the time the list was released, there were 7,460,000 results for her name. Number one is someone most people wouldn’t expect. We’ll give you a hint – she left a huge mark on the music industry with hits like “Poker Face” and “Bad Romance” – yup its Lady GaGa. If you Google her name, it returns an astounding 85,900,000 results.

If you get a chance, go check out the list by following the link at the beginning of this article. Be sure you’re internet connection is up to the task as there are quite a few pictures you need to load – although the site does separate the list into groups of ten.

Hollywood star Sandra Bullock has left her husband Jesse James in hopes of exchanging married life for motherhood. During an interview with People.com, Bullock said that she had just completed successfully completed the adoption process. Apparently, the adoption had been in the works for a while, as early as four years ago. The child, an African American baby boy is believed to only be a few months old. Bullock and James decided to name the baby “Louis.” From what James has said to the media, there may be a scuffle between the two as to who gets to care for the child. James has indicated that he has developed a strong bond with Louis.

James’ marriage with Bullock was put on the chopping block when media outlets reported in March that James had been having an affair with Michelle “Bombshell” McGee, a tattoo model. McGee had released intimate details of their eleven month relationship to the media. James checked into a rehabilitation facility for treatment relating to sexual addiction shortly after the announcement was made public. Despite these efforts, it appears that it is the end of the road for Bullock and James. We can only hope that a nasty battle doesn’t ensue between the two over who gets to care for the young infant.

After a highly publicized health scare last Thursday, people are wondering what happened to Bret Michaels as far as his treatment for a brain hemorrhage is concerned. According to the Washington Post and other media outlets, the Poison star is still in critical condition. Although he has communicated with family members and hospital staff, his speech is blurred. At the current moment, there is no telling whether Michaels will be able to fully recover such functions. The hospital at which the star is being treated has yet to be divulged to the public. Our hopes and prayers are with him and his family.

Michaels checked into the emergency room last Thursday after suffering a spell of severe headaches, which doctors later determined were linked to a brain hemorrhage near his brain stem. Despite having taken several scans, doctors are still trying piece together what triggered the hemorrhage. Although not definitively known, there appears to be little connection between Michaels’ short stint in a hospital earlier this month for an appendectomy. We can only wait and see how Michaels will respond to the treatment provided by his caregivers. A fully recovery is still very well possible, however continued monitoring of the situation is warranted.

After a stint in a Texas hospital to undergo an appendectomy earlier this month, Bret Michaels has been placed back under medical care after suffering from an apparent brain hemorrhage. Michaels was rushed to the emergency room Thursday after having suffered a series of intense headaches. Doctors at the hospital conducted various brains scans on the former Poison vocalist and found that Michaels had suffered from a subarachnoid hemorrhage, or internal bleeding that occurs near the brain stem. According to the latest reports, Michaels continues to be monitored in the intensive care unit as doctors try to pinpoint the exact cause of the hemorrhage. There have been no confirmed reports that his appendectomy surgery may have had an influence on his present medical condition.

Michaels, who suffers from Type-1 diabetes was most recently featured in the NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice,” where he chose the American Diabetes Association as his charity of choice. We will continue to closely monitor any updates that come through about the star’s condition, and will post them hear. For now, our hearts are with his family and we hope that he can pull through this unexpected hurdle.

We may have another Susan Boyle situation on our hands after Lin Yu Chun became an overnight hit on YouTube for his rendition of Whitney’s Houston’s “I Will Always Love You.” Lin Yu Chun performed the song before a panel of judges on the Taiwanese show “Super Star Avenue.” Fans of the show seem to agree that Chun will be the likely winner of the contest, going home with a recording contract as well as $1 million dollars to spend. In the event that Chun doesn’t manage to pull through the contest, we’re pretty sure he will make it in the industry much like Susan Boyle was able to.

Be forewarned, the Lin Yu Chun video is not meant for the weak at heart. You will literally be taken away at how closely Chun’s rendition mimics the original song. If you play the video and just listen to the audio, you would have difficulty convincing yourself that someone other that Whitney Houston is singing. We wish Chun the best of luck in the competition and our votes are with him in the coming phases of the show. Hopefully, we will get some of this same surprising talent on American Idol this next season. It seems very few, if no contestants have truly taken us by surprise quite yet.

If you want to see the pinnacle of a sophisticated and educated family, you need’t look further than the Kardashians. Today one of the Karadashian sisters made a classy move when she flashed her breasts outside of a Miami hotel. Only the best from a family that rose to the top of the fame pyramid strictly due to their association with the late Robert Karadashian, who was a practicing attorney in California that helped defend O.J. Simpson in his ever so memorable murder case. Khloe executed her little stunt in front of fans and photographers who were able to catch a shot of worthy of a feature in the latest edition of Girls Gone Wild. The scene unfolded while Khloe and her sister Kourtney were busy filming for their latest show, aptly titled Kourtney and Khloe take Miami. If Meet the Kardashians is any indication, this show will be a huge hit. Yes, it’s shocking to see that people like to indulge in such a trashy mode of entertainment.

Khloe was recently married to Laker’s player Lamar Odom, who has yet to publicly comment on the incident. Their last minute bid to get married was featured on the most recent season of the Kardashian show. Her antics are probably nothing new to him, and it is unlikely that he will show any objection to her provocative behavior.

Some exciting news today out of Hollywood, where it has been confirmed that singer and actress Beyonce is expecting her first child. Entertainment site mediatakeout.com was first to report on the upcoming pregnancy, which was an ongoing rumor until today. The site claims to have obtained the exclusive information from a trustworthy source, although no details have been divulged as to who this source is. Beyonce is currently married to rapper Jay-Z. The two have been together since 2002, and since that time have recorded various songs, including the hit “Bonnie and Clyde.” The couple married in New York City in 2008, although they had continually denied rumors of any plans up until that point. Neither of them have yet to comment on the news, although we do expect input soon enough.

It appears that Beyonce’s publicist is keeping hush-hush about the rumors, which will only fuel the fire in the end. The same seems to be going on with Jay-Z’s representatives. Regardless, we wish both of them all the best with their new child, as we know all of you do, and will report any new details as they become available. Hopefully, this is not an issue of people propagating rumors again.
