‘Bisexual’ Demi Moore And Ashton Kutcher Had ‘Open Marriage’

Just hours after Demi Moore announced her split from husband Ashton Kutcher, the comedian appeared on CNN's "Piers Morgan Tonight," sounding off on her theories behind the divorce. When host Piers Morgan implied that "Ashton's bad behavior" is behind the split, the 36-year-old comedian said, "Well, I think it's pretty obvious to everybody."

"Again, I don't know them personally very well, but I think it's pretty obvious that they probably had a lot of open marriage-type situations." Sara Leal, 22, came forward saying she and Kutcher slept together in Las Vegas on Sept. 24, which also happened to be the six-year anniversary of Kutcher and Moore.

Demi said in a statement today that she is filing for divorce with "great sadness and a heavy heart". Hinting at Kutcher's infidelity, Demi said: "As a woman, a mother and a wife, there are certain values and vows that I hold sacred, and it is in this spirit that I have chosen to move forward with my life."

Handler, who has never been married, said she felt for Moore, adding that she would never tolerate infidelity. "I absolutely feel for her," she said. "I'm a big proponent of valor and honor and valuing what you have in a relationship or someone else and being true to that and to yourself at the same time."

Egypt's April 6 Movement Reacts On Aliaa Magda Elmahdy Photos

April 6 Youth Movement denies that feminist blogger Aliaa Magda Elmahdy who posed naked in her blog last month is a member of the revolutionary group. 

The Egyptian uprising and its aftermath have created strange bedfellows, like all revolutions do. Some of them, like the Salafi Wahhabis and the Gulf-based Shaikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, joined late and may now have more influence than the secular youth who braved the bullets and the torture and the baltagiya.

The April 6 Youth Movement, a leading force behind the January 25 Revolution, has denied reports that a young Egyptian blogger who posted nude photographs of herself online is a member of the group, Ahram Online has recently reported.

Aliaa Magda Elmahdy apparently thought she was striking a blow for sexual equality and free expression in Egypt when she posted nude photographs of herself on a blog. Instead Ms. Elmahdy set off a wave of outrage here, stoking conservative Islamist sentiments that many liberals fear will undermine their prospects in the country's parliamentary election next week.

The April 6 Youth Movement’s official statement on Tuesday followed reports by Al-Arabiya news that alleged El-Mahdy was a member of the movement.

“Alia El-Mahdy has never been a member in the April 6 Youth Movement. Shame on Al-Arabiya for this terrible professional mistake," said the Movement in its official statement. "Not every political activist - whether famous, renowned, unknown or whoever - is a member of the movement, as it has a specific system for registration.”

The girls who were detained were not like your daughter or mine,” the general said. “These were girls who had camped out in tents with male protesters in Tahrir Square, and we found in the tents Molotov cocktails and (drugs).

We didn’t want them to say we had sexually assaulted or raped them, so we wanted to prove that they weren’t virgins in the first place,” the general said. He added: “None of them were (virgins).”

Aliaa Magda Elmahdy Poses Puts Off Clothes For Woman’s Freedom Faces Charges

 A website has recently updated about the latest issue about Aliaa Magda Elmahdy naked photos the who posted nude pictures of herself on her blog to protest limits on free expression has triggered an uproar in Egypt, drawing condemnations from conservatives and liberals alike. Watch Photos Aliaa Magda Elmahdy Blog Nu-de Photos Spark:


The website wrote:-


           "A report number 10748 was filed this morning with the Egyptian Attorney general to lay charges according to the Blasphemy law Article 98(f) of the Penal Code, as amended by Law 147/2006 states the penalty for blasphemy and similar crimes:against Aliaa al Mahdi for posing nude on her blog.

The memo also includes Aliaa’s boyfriend Karim Amer. The plaintiffs want article 98 of the Egyptian law applied to Aliaa and Karim for aiding and incitement:article 98 Shariaa States:Confinement for a period of not less than six months and not exceeding five years, or a fine of not less than five hundred pounds and not exceeding one thousand pounds shall be the penalty inflicted on whoever makes use of religion in propagating, either by words, in writing, or in any other means, extreme ideas for the purpose of inciting strife, ridiculing or insulting a heavenly religion or a sect following it, or damaging national unity.
"

The posting comes at a time when Egypt, a nation of some 85 million people, is polarized between Islamists and liberals ahead of the elections, the first since the February ouster of former President Hosni Mubarak.

Nudity is strongly frowned upon in Egyptian society, even as an art form. Aliaa Magda Elmahdy's posting is almost unheard of in a country where most women in the Muslim majority wear the headscarf and even those who don't rarely wear clothes exposing the arms or legs in public.

Some liberals feared that the posting by 20-year-old university student Aliaa Magda Elmahdy would taint them in the eyes of deeply conservative Egyptians ahead of Nov. 28 parliamentary elections in which they are trying to compete with fundamentalist Islamic parties.


“It’s is a double disaster. Because I am liberal and I believe in the right of personal freedom, I can’t interfere,” el-Qimni said yesterday night on one of Egypt’s popular TV political talk shows, “90 Minutes”.

In a country where majority of the population is Muslim, the religious code requires for Muslims women to wear head covering or hijab in public. The hijab dates back a long history in Egypt stretching back to the late 1800s and is a major topic of discussion in the country today.

Aliaa Magda Elmahdy Photos

20-year-old college student Aliaa Magda Elmahdy has sparked outrage in Egypt by posting naked photos of herself to her blog as a protest against the country's conservative culture.  Wearing nothing but a pair of stockings, red ribbon in her hair and a pair of flat red shoes, the black and white shot would not look out of place in a nude photography book.

Nudity is strongly frowned upon in Egyptian society, even as an art form. Elmahdy's posting is almost unheard of in a country where most women in the Muslim majority wear the headscarf and even those who don't rarely wear clothes exposing the arms or legs in public.

The New York Times reports that the blog contains a written explanaton of the protest:

     "Try nude models who worked in Fine Art Faculties in the early 1970s, hide all art books and smash naked archaeological statues," read the statement, alluding to some recent protests staged here by ultra-conservative Islamists known as Salafis. "Then take off your clothes and look at yourselves in the mirror, then burn your body that you so despise to get rid of your sexual complexes forever, before subjecting me to your bigoted insults or denying my freedom of expression."

An Egyptian blogger posted nude pictures of herself, creating a flashpoint of controversy involving individual rights, gender, religion and politics weeks before parliamentary elections. Nudity is strongly frowned upon in Egyptian society, even as an art form.

Aliaa Magda Elmahdy’s photos netted 1.5 million views on her blog since she posted them earlier this week, saying the pictures are “screams against a society of violence, racism, sexism, sexual harassment and hypocrisy,” the Associated Press reported.

Facebook Tracking: Senate To Hold hearing And Under Federal Investigation

In a series of interviews with USAToday, Facebook has finally revealed how it tracks users and non-users across the web, gathering huge amount of data as it does so. Senator Jay Rockefeller wants to hold a hearing to understand how Facebook uses cookies.

The company has been accused multiple times for tracking users even after they log out of the service. While potentially a useful shortcut for developers, this update also appears to fall in line with broader language updates Facebook has been making.

Facebook tracking triggers another round of criticism for the social network. This time, the FTC is offering the company a settlement over a legal complaint, while a Senate committee starts to ask.
Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-W.Va.), chairman of the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee, announced Wednesday that he will be holding a hearing to investigate how Facebook tracks users online even after they've logged out, reported the L.A. Times.

Many Facebook denizens will remember this part of the story: in the process of rolling out an update that year, Facebook made a number of changes to its privacy settings. Facebook spokesman Barry Schnitt, engineering director Arturo Bejar, engineering manager Gregg Stefancik, corporate spokeswoman Jaime Schopflin, and Noyes have now revealed the extent of the company’s tracking.

The FTC first began investigating Facebook back in December 2009, after the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC), a consumer advocacy group, complained that Facebook had harmed its users by changing privacy settings in a way that encouraged them to reveal their names, photos, gender, and other personal information. Senator Jay Rockefeller, chairman of the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee, said today he would hold a hearing to look into reports that Facebook is using cookies to track users even after they log out of the service.

Justin Bieber's Paternity Accuser Mariah Yeater Busted by Text Messages

Justin Bieber's alleged baby mama Mariah Yeater sent a text Wednesday to a friend, begging him to erase an incriminating text in which her mom says someone other than Justin Bieber is the child's father, and then promising to give him a cut of the action when she scores a payday.

Yeater allegedly offered the unnamed friend a cut of the money when and if she is rewarded a fee following the lawsuit, reports TMZ, “Pleeease ERASE ALL MESSAGES from my mom where she says Tristyn is Robbie’s son. I’ll kick u when we get paid. I’m trusting you pleeease. (Mariah Laci).”

It has also been reported that her mother sent previous messages stating Tristyn was fathered by her daughter's ex-boyfriend Robbie. All of the texts are allegedly signed off 'Mariah Laci', with Laci being her middle name.

TMZ reports they have seen many other texts between Yeater and John. In one text, Yeater writes, "[John], would you please stress to Robbie how important it is for him to be in his son's life?.."


Justin Bieber’s lawyer, Howard Weitzman, tells TMZ, “This information proves Mariah Yeater fabricated the story. Our independent investigation indicates Ms. Yeater never meet Justin, she has consistently identified another man as the child’s father, and Ms. Yeater....

Earlier this week it was believed single mother Yeater had quietly  dismissed her paternity suit against the teenager, withdrawing the lawsuit. Yeater's original lawyers have dropper her as a client, and she has retained another attorney who has said he will go forward with her paternity suit.

2013 Ford Mustang Models Revealed At Los Angeles Auto Show

Ford pulled back on the curtains on the 2013 Ford Mustang lineup at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Tuesday night. Ford has released the details of the 2013 Mustang range ahead of its Los Angeles debut.

Yet another argument for the contention that we’re living in a golden era for American muscle cars arrives with the 2013 Ford Mustang, which will sport a brace of tech and styling updates across its line. This fifth generation of 'Stang has been around ever since 2005, but has benefited from a myriad of changes since then, transforming it into a genuinely good, genuinely fast sports car.

The Shelby GT500 was the star attraction, even with the blindingly yellow Boss 302 and convertible variants alongside. Ford says the Shelby version will have the most powerful production V-8 engine in the world, with a top speed of over 200 mph. The Mustang range has got some visual updates and also the Mustang Boss 302 model will be available in the 2013 model year.

Ford claims that the beastly supercharged 5.8 liter V8, with 650 horsepower and 600 lb.-ft of torque, can carry the GT500 to a top speed of 200-mph. Last year's LA Auto Show actually saw a host of changes to the entire Mustang range, which is why its surprising to see these new cars so soon.

"I think it's the greatest Mustang that's ever been built," the 88-year-old legend told the crowd at the Belasco Theater in Los Angeles, after being introduced by Ford sales and marketing chief Jim Farley.

Ford also will unveil the freshened 2013 Mustang, which comes with more aggressive styling and new LED lighting to give it a high-tech look, the company said.

Former Porn Star Sasha Grey Defends In 'The View' Reading to School Children (VIDEO)

Sexy pictures of Sasha Grey flashed in the background of 'The View' stage set as the adult fim star-turned actress tried to set the record straight about her elementary school scandal. The porn star-turned-actress caused waves by visiting a Los Angeles-area elementary school and reading to Compton children last week.

"I feel that there was a lot of sanctimonious media firestorm thrown at me. However, I've always gone after what I want, and I will continue to do that," Grey said during an interview on ABC's "The View." After pictures surfaced of Grey reading to kids at Emerson Elementary School in Compton as part of the “Read Across America” program, parents and other commentators expressed outrage that she’d been allowed to participate given her past career.

"Honestly, I don't think so, no. Should they have informed the parents? Yes, but I think they should inform the parents whenever they have a guest speaker." Grey, who recently landed a part in the HBO show "Entourage," visited Emerson Elementary School as part of its guest reader program.

Kardashian Boycott: Petition Asks E! To Cut Kim, Khloe, Kourtney And The Rest

The Kardashian boycott that started with a small petition requesting that E! remove Keeping Up With The Kardashians from their network, is now gaining steam as the petition which had roughly 60,000+ signatures earlier today, is now closing in on 100,000 signatures.

A petition has been launched online calling for the E! Entertainment network, which airs "Keep Up With The Kardashians" and other shows based on the close clan, to be removed from the airwaves. While the anti-Kardashian camp is strong no doubt, there is still lots of love for the sisters. You should have seen the turnout at their book signing today in New York in the pouring rain. There is Kardashian love flowing strong.

Snider asks that concerned parties join her in pushing for the end of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," the reality show that chronicles the lives of sisters Kim, Khloe and Kourtney, along with their mom, Kris Jenner, stepdad, Bruce Jenner, and half-sisters Kylie and Kendall Jenner.

Following the rich-daddy-and-sex-tape formula, the next-gen celebutante and her derriere vaulted into the spotlight, finding a home on E! with a series of vapid reality shows and specials- the apex of that being a multi-million dollar wedding, the planning of which far outlasted her 72-day marriage to NBA free agent Kris Humphries.

"In a grass roots effort, we have collected [thousands of] signatures for a petition asking E! Entertainment to remove the Kardashian suite of shows from their programming," petition organizer Cyndy Snider said in a statement to Yahoo TV.

"We feel these shows are mostly staged and place an emphasis on vanity, greed, promiscuity, vulgarity and over-the-top conspicuous consumption." The 31-year-old "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star filed for divorce at a Los Angeles court. The couple's date of separation is also listed as October 31. The petition on GoPetition.com has already received more than 46,000 signatures.

Facebook pages have also been created to oust the Kardashian clan from the cable network. Kim, her family, and her lawyer have vehemently denied allegations that the marriage to Kris Humphries was for any reason other than love.

There is even a Kardashian boycott Facebook page than you can join to chat with other Kardashian haters.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck vs. Bill Maher on ‘The View’ [VIDEO]

Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Bill Maher had an incredibly awkward exchange on Tuesday's "The View," after Hasselbeck confronted Maher over a joke he told about her last year. Hasselbeck was none too pleased with a joke Maher made at her expense last February, in which he suggested sending her to Egypt in exchange for CBS News correspondent Lara Logan, who’d been assaulted while covering that country’s democratic uprising.

One would think he'd mind being attacked, but on tonight's Late Show, Maher told David Letterman he was actually pleased with how she reacted: "Thank you, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, for making me look good!" When the clip was first aired on the view, Elisabeth snapped, "I try to only debate real men over the airways but will depart to address Billy Maher."

"I was abused. I felt like a teenage boy at Penn State," quipped Maher, never one to pass on an un-PC zinger. "It's funny, I am never in the role of the victim... It was like, thank you, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, for making me look good!

"She had some bug up her ass," he added, but then softened his tone. "Look, I'm only kidding. I like her a lot. We have this relationship on TV where we hate each other." Logan later revealed she had been sexually assaulted by a baying mob while reporting in the Middle Eastern country, saying she had 'raped me with their hands.'

After reiterating what had happened to the 60 Minutes journalist, Hasselback, 34, told the comic: 'You can't sit here and tell me right now and tell me I'm wrong for saying that wasn't that funny.'

The other girls on “The View” seemed to side with Maher. Joy Behar said that people have to understand that comedians will occasionally offend some people, and Barbara Walters kept trying to get Hasselbeck to drop the issue.

Bradley Cooper Is 2011’s Sexiest Man Alive

Bradley Cooper has been named 2011’s Sexiest Man Alive by People magazine for his baby blue eyes and a smile that lights up the big screen delighting millions of fans. 

In choosing Cooper, who has enjoyed box office success most notably in "The Hangover" films, the magazine said there was more to the actor than his dazzling baby blues and a killer smile. "I think it's really cool that a guy who doesn't look like a model can have this [title]," says the Hangover actor, 36 to the People Magazine.

"I think I'm a decent-looking guy. Sometimes I can look great, and other times I look horrifying." The 36-year-old actor dated Renee Zellweger for two years and has recently been linked to Jennifer Lopez.

People writes, "Ladies, take note: this Georgetown grad can whip up dinner, take you for a spin on his motorcycle and whisper sweet nothings in French (he's fluent!). Just don't try convincing him what a catch he is."

Cooper said his first thought when he was informed of the honors was, "My mother is going to be so happy." Runnersup on People's annual list this year were Ryan Gosling, Idris Elba, Tim McGraw and Alec Baldwin.

"If you're a single man and you happen to be in this business, you're deemed a player,” The Hangover star said. “But I don't see myself as a ladies' man."

Do you agree with People's choice? What are you waiting for, girls?

Lily Collins And Julia Roberts In 'Mirror, Mirror' Trailer

Julia Roberts camps it up as the Evil Queen in the first trailer for flick Mirror, Mirror. Last week brought the debut of the trailer for the Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron-led Snow White and the Huntsman.

In a totally different vein to the dark and dramatic Snow White and the Huntsman starring Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron and Chris Hemsworth, in theaters next summer, this version offers an amusing take on the Brothers Grimm story

“Mirror Mirror” is quite different. Although also visually striking, its trailer suggests the film will lean more toward camp and comedy than intense sword fights. Armie Hammer takes on the role of Prince Andrew Alcott, while Nathan Lane plays Brighton, the hapless, bungling servant to the Queen.

"Blah blah blah, her hair is not black. It's raven!" Roberts (as the Evil Queen) says in the trailer. "And she's 18 years old and her skin has never seen the sun, so of course it's good." The fantasy follows the wicked queen who has stolen the kingdom and banished Snow White from her throne.

In her scheme to marry the Prince, she plans a ball which backfires when the Prince meets and falls for Snow White. Julia Roberts is the evil queen in this one, and obviously gets the best lines. She doesn't have "wrinkles," she has "crinkles," Snow White's hair "isn't black, it's raven," and "she's 18 years old and her skin has never seen the sun, so of course it's good."

Dancing With the Stars: Hope Solo Out, J.R. Martinez in the Finals

She's a world class soccer player, but it seems Hope Solo struggled to be a good sport after her elimination from Dancing With The Stars last night. Solo was forced to hang up her dancing shoes tonight after being voted off “Dancing With the Stars” in the week 9 semifinals, leaving Ricki Lake, J.R. Martinez and Rob Kardashian to battle it out in next week’s finals.

Solo and Maks were at the bottom of the scoreboard from Monday’s dance routines; the couple received a total of just 49 points from judges’ votes. "Instead of winning the mirror ball trophy, I'm going to try and win a gold medal this summer at the Olympics," said a smiling Solo, who won gold in the 2008 Olympics, after learning her fate.

"I love them! They were on my team paso and we did so well with that," Ricki Lake says of saying goodbye to Hope and her partner Maks Chermovskiy. “Maks was amazing — the producer of the show, I have to thank you, Maks, for casting me to be on your show!” Hope faux-gushed. We hope no one lets him live down his “this is my show” comment.

"Instead of winning the mirror ball trophy, I'm going to try and win a gold medal this summer at the Olympics," Solo said after she was ousted, calling the show "one of the toughest competitions I've ever been a part of." Solo and Chmerkovskiy have made waves on the show, and not just for their dancing.

'Wizard of Oz' Munchkin Karl Slover Dies

Karl Slover, one of the last surviving actors who played Munchkins in the 1939 classic film, "The Wizard of Oz," has died. The star, who passed away on Tuesday with heart problems, was one of the last surviving cast members.

The 4ft 5in actor died of cardiopulmonary arrest yesterday afternoon in a suburban Atlanta hospital, said Laurens County Deputy Coroner Nathan Stanley. Deputy Coroner Nathan Stanley said the four-foot five-inch Slover died of cardiopulmonary arrest and was pronounced dead in a suburban Atlanta hospital.

The 4-foot-5 Slover played the lead trumpeter in the Munchkins' band. He appeared at a "Wizard of Oz" festival in Chesterton, Ind., in September and signed autographs. The actor was originally cast to play a lesser role in the movie, but was made lead trumpeter when another actor got stage fright during filming. In 2007 seven of the surviving Munchkin stars were honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles.

Slover had been cast to play the second trumpeter but switched when another actor got stage fight during filming, said longtime friend Allen Pease, the co-founder of the former Munchkinland Market Days outside Chesterton, Indiana.

He was buried in the backyard, immersed in heated oil until his skin blistered and then attached to a stretching machine at a hospital, all in the attempt to make him become taller. Eventually he was sold by his father at age 9 to a traveling show in Europe, Fricke said.

Hope Solo Eliminated From ‘Dancing With the Stars’

Soccer star Hope Solo has been kicked off of "Dancing With the Stars." Solo was forced to hang up her dancing shoes tonight after being voted off “Dancing With the Stars” in the week 9 semifinals, leaving Ricki Lake, J.R. Martinez and Rob Kardashian to battle it out in next week’s finals.


Solo and Maks were at the bottom of the scoreboard from Monday’s dance routines; the couple received a total of just 49 points from judges’ votes.

Solo and Chmerkovskiy have made waves on the show, and not just for their dancing.

Kardashian and Burke then took the stage to find out if they would be in the bottom two or the top three. Rob Kardashian, Ricki Lake, JR Martinez are the remaining three contestants that progress to next week’s show as the final for Dancing With the Stars season 13 draws to a close.

Justin Bieber Facebook Hit With Spam, Porn, & Gore

Facebook users on Tuesday were assaulted by a wave of pornographic and violent images, pushed into their accounts as content supposedly liked or recommended by their friends. Facebook is investigating reports that a massive wave of pornographic and violent images that has flooded users' News Feeds in the past 24 hours.

The content, which includes explicit hardcore porn images, photoshopped photos of celebrities such as Justin Bieber in sexual situations, pictures of extreme violence and even a photograph of an abused dog, have been distributed via the site.

Spokesman Frederic Wolens said Facebook's security team had been working to identify the cause of the spam and that, by Tuesday afternoon, "we have eliminated most of the spam caused by this attack." Hackers also may have compromised the accounts of users with weak passwords or tricked people into installing a malicious code.

Needless to say, those affected are upset—with many taking to Twitter to complain about “seeing a dead dog on my Facebook newsfeed” to quote one user, who pretty much sums up what everyone else is most horrified about. Facebook needs to get a handle on this problem quickly, and prevent it from happening on such a scale again. Users hate to be tricked. Facebook would never trick them. Now these devious, mindless porn-peddlers have upset the mood of baby pictures, ego-expression, and frantic date-seeking.

The bad guys in that case tapped into Facebook's systems to push spam advertisements virally to the victims' friends and friends of friends. "Facebook, I can handle old person porn but please no more beaten, bloody animals ... NOT COOL," complained one.

"Seeing a dead dog on my Facebook newsfeed... Officially deactivating it," said another.

Facebook's Wolens said that users were tricked into pasting malicious script into their browser URL bars, causing them to unknowingly share the offensive content. He said no data or account information was compromised during the attack.

Britney Spears Sizzles in Lime Green Bikini

Britney Spears was in a bikini yesterday to play at the pool of her Rio hotel with boyfriend Jason Trawick and her sons Sean Preston and Jayden James. The

29-year-old pop star showed off her toned tummy and lean legs in a skimpy lime green two-piece in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Monday.

According to the Daily Mail, the two-piece showed off her flat stomach and toned legs as she submerged herself into the water for some family fun. "I have a trainer. I run on the treadmill for 30 minutes," the star told Ryan

Seacrest earlier this year. "We do a lot of cardio and running. He kicks my butt!"

The 39-year-old also played father figure to her two tots, whose father is Britney's ex-husband Kevin Federline. The adorable boys, who both wore matching Spiderman board shorts, were having a ball with their mother's boyfriend.

Diaspora Social Network Co-Founder Dies | Ilya Zhitomirskiy Dead

New York University programming student and Diaspora Co-founder Ilya Zhitomirskiy has passed away. According to the reports, Ilya Zhitomirskiy passed away over weekend. He was just 22 and cause and date of his death is publicly unknown yet.

Diaspora was involved in a glitzy fight with PayPal due to which the online payments monster hold back over US$45,000 in aid from the decentralized social start-up.


It is widely believed that the privacy-invasive environment created by Facebook has played a significant role in bringing such a high response to Diaspora project. Diaspora took the spat to PayPal, by disparaging the service’s actions before it unblocked the account without any further delay.

The last post of late Zhitomirskiy on Diaspora on November 7 became a tribute. Other members offered their condolence on his death. Daniel Grippi, Maxwell Salzberg , Raphael Sofaer and Ilya Zhitomirskiy were intended to build “an open-source personal web server that will put individuals in control of their data.”

They decided to launch Diaspora project because they had been frustrated by Facebook’s privacy policy. At the beginning of the project, the project designers described the network as a place where the internet surfers will have full control over their privacy, identity, and data, and asked them on the Kickstarter website to give help in raising US$10,000. They instead raised US$200,000.

Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson Dazzles At 'Breaking Dawn' Premiere

There was magic in the air last night as a host of stars gathered for the premiere of the latest movie in the "Twilight" saga, "Breaking Dawn Part 1," held at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles.

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson certainly didn't disappoint as they made a stunning arrival for the world premiere. The 21-year-old Kristen Stewart donned a blue sequined J. Mendel gown and Jimmy Choo heels, which Access Hollywood’s Shaun Robinson found out were taking their toll on the actress.

The co-stars and real-life couple, who play lovers Edward Cullen and Bella Swan in the film, posed for the cameras with their arms wrapped tightly around one another."[My feet] hurt so bad," Kristen told Shaun.

"Usually they hurt. I just hurt my foot on 'Snow White' of course, because I do that to myself all the time. So, I think this is the last interview I'm going to stay in these heels."

Nikki Reed opted for a green asymmetrical Marchesa Resort 2012 dress. Ashley Greene looked stunning in a red custom Donna Karan strapless gown. Kristen paired her risque look with some black suede peeptoe platform pumps and wore her dark brunette locks hair in a messy updo while here eyes were made-up with a sultry smoky shadow.

'Hunger Games' Trailer Sparks Strong Reaction From Fans

The Hunger Games is a first person young-adult science fiction novel written by Suzanne Collins. The Hunger Games has been billed as the new Twilight, a horrific prospect to those already looking forward to the end of the tween-favourite saga.

Much to the relief of "Hunger Games" fans worldwide, Lionsgate finally has debuted its first full-fledged trailer for the dystopian adventure due out March 23. While fans will have to wait for more insight into the book's love triangle, which was largely ignored in this two-and-a-half minute teaser, there is much to be gleaned from the clip.

Once the video hit the internet, fans of the Suzanne Collins novels rushed to view the first real look at the highly anticipated Lionsgate film, starring Jennifer Lawrence. The Hunger Games takes place in an unidentified future time period after the destruction of North America, in a nation known as Panem.

Panem consists of a wealthy Capitol and twelve surrounding, poorer districts. District 12, where the book begins, is located in the coal-rich region that was formerly Appalachia

Chief among the reasons to be cheerful is Jennifer Lawrence in the lead. The X Men: First Class actor plays a young woman called Katniss who volunteers to enter the titular games, an annual event in which a boy and girl from each district of the dystopian nation of Panem (formerly the USA) are sent to battle to the death.

The film will be directed by Gary Ross with Jennifer Lawrence in the role of Katniss, Josh Hutcherson as the role of Peeta, and Liam Hemsworth as the role of Gale.

The filmmakers went into production in late Spring 2011 with an anticipated release date of March 23, 2012.

Kathy Griffin Recreates Janet Jackson's Rolling Stone Cover

Kathy Griffin certainly isn't shy about showing off her body. The 51-year-old comedienne stripped off her top for the new issue of Out magazine. Modern Family star Jesse Tyler Ferguson had previously tweeted about how his hands would “never be the same” after his photo shoot for the OUT 100.

The adorable duo put their own quirky spin on Janet Jackson’s Rolling Stone cover from 1993. According to the magazine, it was Kathy and Jesse who suggested the pose which is a riff of Janet Jackson’s iconic 1993 Rolling Stone cover.

In the shot, Griffin's jeans are undone and she's showing her underwear; Ferguson also appears to be shirtless. The Out 100 is a list of the most influential men and women in the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) community.

Mila Kunis And Jay Z GQ ‘Men of the Year’ 2011

Mila Kunis sparred onscreen with Justin Timberlake and sizzled alongside Natalie Portman, and now Mila Kunis is finally being honoured for her beauty and talent. This week, GQ unleashed four different covers for the upwardly bro-bile magazine's 2011 Men of the Year issue.

Mila Kunis, Jay-Z, Michael Fassbender, Justin Timberlake, and Jimmy Fallon grace four separate covers for GQ’s December/Men of the Year issue, on newsstands November 22. In the issue, the 41-year-old reveals that it was wife BeyoncĂ©’s decision to announce she was pregnant at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards.

This feature is one of the more incisive profiles we've seen of the Jiggaman in a while, cutting deep into the heart of exactly what "luxury rap" is in a story coincidentally dropping on the very day he pulled his controversial OCCUPY ALL STREETS T-shirts from the market. Mila Kuni makes a cameo appearance in the film, which stars Jason Segel, Amy Adams and Rashida Jones.

She is also starring in Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane's directorial debut, Ted, alongside Mark Wahlberg. All Kunis really had going for her this year was a moderately successful summer film, the raunchy rom-com Friends with Benefits, and an awkward boob and crotch grab at the MTV Movie Awards with Justin Timberlake.

"If your dad died before you were born, yeah, it hurts--but it's not like you had a connection with something that was real," Jay says. The rapper tells the mag about his better half's decision to share with the world the exciting news of the stork's pending arrival at the recent MTV Video Music Awards.

Nikki Reed & Kristen Stewart Dazzle At The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1

Nikki Reed stuns in a Marchesa dress on the black carpet premiere of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 held at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live on Monday night (November 14) in Los Angeles.

"The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1" stars Nikki Reed and Ashley Greene, followed suit in floor-length gowns as they walked the carpet and greeted the fans. Reed talked about filming in miserable conditions, extreme “Twilight” fandom and why she won’t be writing “Twenty-Six,” the follow-up to “Thirteen.”

While Reed and costars Ashley Greene and Elizabeth Reaser often tried to pull items from the ’20s and ’30s, stylists would steer them back toward contemporary looks. This morning, Nikki Reed debuted her duet with American Idol hubby Paul McDonald on Ryan Seacrest's morning show.

With the melodies written by hubby Paul McDonald, the song is featured in the movie’s soundtrack. Kristen Stewart is famous for her laid-back red carpet style (let's face it -- her laid back everywhere style) but for the Nov. 14 film premiere in Los Angeles, she ditched her signature Chuck Taylors in favor of a little glamour.

Jamie Pierre Killed In Utah Avalanche VIDEO]

Pro skier Jamie Pierre was killed in an avalanche on Sunday afternoon in the backcountry of Utah's Snowbird Ski Area, which is not yet open for the winter season.

Pierre is best known for achieving the world record for the highest cliff jump on skis, a 245-foot drop in the backcountry behind Grand Targhee Resort in Wyoming for a film by Teton Gravity Research. Officials say the incident is a tragic reminder of why back-country skiing, and skiing at resorts that are not yet open and properly groomed, is so dangerous right now.

Pierre was reportedly snowboarding with a companion when an avalanche took the pair over a cliff. Pierre's injuries proved fatal while his friend was miraculously unharmed. Snowbird isn’t scheduled to open for the season until next Saturday, Nov. 19.

At least four other avalanches involving skiers/snowboarders ran today in Alta and Snowbird in Little Cottonwood Canyon, according to the UAC. Alta, which is also not yet open for the season, has since closed to uphill traffic, the Utah Avalanche Center also reported on its Twitter account today.

"It's a very sad reminder to have to put out there to remind people that these are back-county conditions and people ultimately are not allowed on the mountain as a result of the resort being closed," said Unified Police Lt. Justin Hoyal.

Megan Fox Goes Sexy For Glamorous Armani Makeup Ads

After all, it certainly doesn't feel like 2011 as we gaze upon these new shots of Megan Fox as part of Armani's cosmetics campaign. Elsewhere the latest Armani campaign starring the former Transformers actress has been released.

In the commercial for the new Armani "Designing Lift" foundation, Fox channels Elizabeth Taylor, the Daily Mail says, with her dark hair coiffed into glamorous waves.

Megan was dropped as the body of Emporio Armani Underwear and Armani Jeans in favour of Rihanna. Model Lara Stone served as spokesmodel for the Giorgio Armani cosmetics line before Fox took over the crown last year.

Pippa Middleton is back on the royal market. Duchess Kate's stylish, spotlight-stealing sister, 28, has cancelled plans to be among the high-profile revelers at the Square Mile Masked Ball Nov. 25.

The Duchess of Cambridge's sister was due to attend the Square Mile Masked Ball this month. British tabloids are saying that the couple have been arguing, with Loudon not able to cope with Pippa’s new status as a sex symbol.

Duchess Kate's little sister, who awed the world with her gorgeous figure at the royal wedding, Pippa spent the weekend with her sister and brother-in-law Prince William. The pair has not been spotted together for several weeks and according to the Daily Mail, Middleton and Loudon had a "blazing and very public" argument at a wedding in September.

"Pippa tried to get over the split by spending last weekend with [William and Kate] at Balmoral," a source told British paper The Sun. "She and Alex split briefly in the summer, but this time it's over. They are barely speaking."
