Sandra Bullock was not allowed to date as a teen


Sandra Bullock endured a strict upbringing and was banned from going on dates unless she promised to call home every 20 minutes.
The Blind Side star admits her mum Helga forbid her from joining friends at social gatherings and she was lucky to even go to her high school dance.

She says, “My mother was very strict but rightly so, I think. She just didn’t want me in a car with any boys whatsoever until I was 18… I was allowed to go on a date twice – to a dance. But I had to call every 20 minutes. (I had to go) to the payphone. Helga would have shown up at the school, which she did as well, when she didn’t hear from me.”
But Bullock admits she’s turned into the same overprotective parent since becoming a mum to adopted two-year-old son Louis – and she’s beginning to follow in her mother’s footsteps.

She admits, “I don’t hover, but… he’s always in a helmet and in this bubble that I keep him in.”

Dina Lohan Calls Rumors About Ali’s Weight ‘Rubbish’



We’ve recently noted that Ali Lohan, daughter of Dina and sister of Lindsay, has been looking very different lately. We’ve also noted that in the wake of her somewhat extreme weight loss, she’s become the target of anorexia rumors. Well, mother of the decade Dina Lohan has something to say about this: she wants all of y’all to back the eff up with your petty “concern:”
Dina recently told Us Weekly she “doesn’t read any of the rubbish” printed about her 17-year-old daughter’s shrinking figure. The starlet has been spotted this month in Beverly Hills and Oahu looking shockingly gaunt.
The Lohan matriarch also scoffed at rumors that Ali underwent plastic surgery. “I would never condone plastic surgery at such a young age,” Dina told Us. “Ali is a wonderful person and an amazing soul.”
Of course she is. And that’s why I’d be more worried that she’s hanging out with this guy than I would about her weight at the moment:

Chinese model-actress Zhang Xinyu has once again come under the spotlight.

chinese model zhang xinyu

A number of intimate photos of Zhang Xinyu was leaked and circulated online since yesterday.

These intimate bedroom pictures, believed to be of Xinyu's, went viral when it was posted online. While the girl in the photographs resembled Xinyu, the guy in the picture was clearly not boyfriend Ron Ng.

Through her manager, Xinyu admitted that the photos were taken together with her ex beau.

"He was my boyfriend back in university. These pictures were leaked from his (ex-boyfriend) blog before I entered the (entertainment) industry. When I first saw the photos, I was angry as I realised that I was being used... I felt regretful. This won't happen again."

Xinyu also denied that she has gone under the knife and claimed that she had only taken facial slimming injections.

She also refuted rumours of her being a domineering girlfriend.

When contacted, Ron refused to comment on the issue and asked for the public to give them some space.

The actor remains protective of his girlfriend and believes that she would learn to face up to her past mistakes through the incident.

Police Probe Alleged Ex-Miss Korea Sex Tape

han sung ju sex video
Police are looking into a sex video and photos which allegedly show a former Miss Korea with her ex-boyfriend.

han sung ju miss korea sex tape

The alleged victim, who now works as a TV presenter, filed a claim against a blogger Tuesday for uploading the video online, the police said.

The three-minute video shows a woman, who appears to be the presenter, in a sexual act with a man whose face is not shown.

The video and other photos, including a passport photo of her, quickly spread online after appearing on the blog Sunday.

The person who posted the video and images claimed to be friend of the presenter's ex-boyfriend. He wrote that he could no longer stand her "hurting other people with her self-indulgence and selfishness."

He noted the video was filmed while the former Miss Korea lived with her ex-boyfriend.

The blogger also revealed that his friend was beaten up by thugs hired by the woman's brother as he threatened to speak out about their relationship.

"Her brother locked my friend up, beat him and also forced him to write a pledge in blood," he wrote. He also claimed that the presenter had an abortion.

Police are investigating the person who uploaded the video and photos. They are also looking into the origin of the files.

They said the woman's attorney filed a complaint against the blogger for spreading false rumors, but did not reveal whether or not the woman in the footage is the former Miss Korea as claimed.

Ex-boyfriend Leaks Sex Video of Anonymous Celebrity

han sung ju

An online posting of a sex tape featuring a well-known Korean female celebrity has prompted the female star to file a lawsuit against the distributor.

miss korea han sung ju

On Dec. 4, a Web blog containing the entertainer's name made its debut online featuring a sex video that ran for 2 minutes, 52 seconds. In the video, the female celebrity can be seen engaging in sexual activities with a man identified as her former boyfriend. The site's owner said that as the two parted ways, the ex-boyfriend was threatened, beaten and forced by thugs hired by his former girlfriend to sign agreements to not reveal information about the star. The reason for uploading the video, according to the site, was because the ex-boyfriend wanted to reveal the duplicity of the female entertainer.

In addition to the sex tape the blog posted scanned uploads of the star's passport, nude photos and a medical certificate verifying an abortion, among other documents.

On Dec. 5, the star took legal actions by hiring a lawyer to sue her ex-boyfriend for the damages to her reputation. A representative from Sungdong District Police told Ilgan Sports, "An anonymous female celebrity has filed a suit for a libel case. We will start the investigation once we receive a statement from the celebrity with the damages she's suffered." The items on the blog were removed on Dec. 6.

During an appearance at MTV China's 2011 Style Awards held at the Beijing National Stadium, the 31-year-old star explained what happened.

"Seven months ago, I broke up with my girlfriend Vincy Yeung and I was actually unhappy, very lost, so I found the wrong outlet to make myself happy. This time, I did wrong; I was too stupid and put my trust in the wrong people." Chen said.

While Chen undeniably stole the show with his apology, the Style Awards are actually a big annual event, attracting celebrities from the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

This year, Jay Chou , Sun Nan , Rene Liu and Li Yuchun have been named Singer Style Icon of the Year.

Jessica collaborated with 8Eight for the song "I Love You" from their 2nd album Infinity which was released on March 3, 2008.

Scarlett Johansson has it all figured out



Scarlett Johansson in the December issue of Interview magazine
Scarlett Johansson has finally figured out how the whole Occupy Wall Street movement can have a real impact on our country. Or at least she certainly thinks she has. It's so cute when celebrities think they know what the fuck they're talking about! From her interview with Interview magazine (yes, that actually exists):

"You know, if Occupy Wall Street was actually a march, and people from all around the country could collect and march toward Washington, D.C., as part of this massive movement of people... I think that kind of pressure is more powerful than a sit-in that seems a little more unorganized.

"I do feel positive about what's happening. I think that with all these movements, and this growing collective voice that's emerging, people are starting to come out of the kind of dazed state they were in for so many years."
Awe, isn't that just the most precious thing ever? The china doll wants to put on a pantsuit and do some head scratchin'. It's nice to see a broad pretending to play politics, but just like children, Scarlett Johansson should be seen and not heard. The ex Mrs. Ryan Reynolds' time would be better spent fussing over dresses or keeping her make-up tidy instead of wasting it via worrying about things that go above her head (i.e., men's work). Scarlett, I say this with all due respect: when I need to know you opinion, I'll look at your nude pics. Now be a dear and go wait in the car.
