» Willow Smith found it "really cool" working with Nicki Minaj and in the future she'd like to col­lab­or­ate with Jessie J. (Access Hollywood)

» Taylor Swift is threat­en­ing to sue charm­ingly titled website Celebrity Jihad after it refused to take down fake topless photos of her. (Rolling Stone) The website has offered to take them down if Swift devours the entrails of a goat.

» Last night, Britney Spears wrapped her legs around Joe Jonas' head last night. (YouTube)

» Kelly Clarkson's 'Mr Know It All' video is similar but also different to a video someone else made earlier this year. (New York Daily News)
