  • Charlie Sheen Whips Up Some ‘Winning’ Recipes

    The Charlie Sheen crazy train doesn't seem to be in danger of stopping any time soon! On the day that Sheen announced he was suing Warner Bros. and "Two and a Half Men" creator Chuck Lorre for $100 million, the actor posted a new video on FunnyOrDie.com entitled "Charlie Sheen's Winning Recipes."

    Sporting a tiger-print chef's hat, Sheen hosts a cooking show at his home, Sober Valley Lodge, where he spouts a succession of the one-liners he's become famous for, while whipping up a meal fit for a ... well, you'll just have to see it for yourself.

    "Here I come Food Network," Charlie says in the skit, where he refers to a spatula as "a cooking wand for a warlock" and a glass bowl as a "cauldron of awesomeness." As he proceeds to "cook" a meal, Sheen jokes that he grows his own veggies because his "finger tips radiate sunshine," that he waters his garden with "tears of a jaguar," and that he can cook steak with lasers shooting out of his eyes.

    "Face it, I'm living the life of a rock star

  • Lady Gaga Veers Off Target

    Just one month after announcing a special deal with Target to promote an exclusive deluxe edition of her new album, Lady Gaga has pulled the plug on it. The singer called off the partnership due to her disagreement with Target's politics -- it seems the retail giant donates significant amounts of money to anti-gay political candidates.

    In a February, 2011 interview with Billboard.com, Gaga initially expressed her reservations over doing a deal with Target due to their political stance, but instead of just turning it down, the "Bad Romance" singer saw it as an opportunity to push her own agenda of empowerment for all.

    "Part of my deal with Target is that they have to start affiliating themselves with LGBT charity groups and begin to reform and make amends for the mistakes they've made in the past," Gaga told Billboard, adding, "Our relationship is hinged upon their reform in the company to support the gay community and to redeem the mistakes they've made supporting those groups."

  • Willow Smith Hits the Road

    Step aside Justin Bieber ... Willow Smith is taking the UK by storm! The 10-year-old pop princess is the "Baby" singer's opening act on his European tour, and though JBiebs is still the star of the show, Willow has definitely been stealing quite a bit of his thunder!

    While leaving the Merrion Hotel in Dublin, Ireland, on Tuesday, Willow was mobbed by young fans on her way to the O2 Arena where she and Justin were set to perform. Following closely behind were her big brother Jaden and her dad, Will Smith. "Ready to ROCK Dublin!!!" tweeted Willow excitedly before she stepped on stage.

    It sounds like the Smith kids and Bieber have been having a lot of fun on tour. On Monday, Justin, 17, declared that his little buddy Jaden should join Twitter, posting "Jaden needs twitter." Just a short time later, "The Karate Kid" star's twitter account was up and running, with Jaden posting his first tweet: "Chillin with my bro @justinbieber."

  • Is Suri Cruise Too Old for a Pacifier?

    Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have often been criticized for allowing their 4-year-old daughter Suri to wear fashion accessories deemed too old for her, such as high heels and makeup. Now, the precocious princess has been spotted sucking on a pacifier. Is Suri -- who will turn 5 in April -- too old for the childish "binky"?

    Suri Cruise is spotted sporting a childish accessory -- a pacifier -- in Vancouver, Canada. - PacificCoastNews.comThe 4-year-old and her mom Katie head out after grabbing a bit to eat at a local restaurant. - PacificCoastNews.com  

    Suri was spotted with the pacifier firmly planted in her mouth as she exited Vera's Burgers in Vancouver, Canada, after grabbing a bite to eat with her mom Katie. According to PopEater.com, it could be a Scientology belief that's allowing Suri to keep sucking. "Suri just isn't told 'no' very often," an insider told PopEater.com, adding, "Scientology encourages you to make your own decisions and learn lessons as you live your life. She'll know herself when it's time to throw the pacifier away, plain and simple."

    The co-author of Baby 411, Dr. Ari Brown, told FoxNews.com that extended use of a pacifier can cause dental problems such as an overbite in the future. She

  • Fashion Faceoff: Liv Tyler vs. Kanye West

    Who ever would have thought we'd have Liv Tyler and Kanye West in a fashion battle like this one?! The two unlikely suspects were both spotted wearing a Givenchy Rottweiler sweater while attending the fashion house's fall 2011 womenswear show in Paris on Monday. Question is ... who wore it best?

    First off, the Givenchy fall 2011 menswear sweater is questionable at best. Just because it's designer doesn't mean it's good! The top has a bit of an Ed Hardy vibe, which I'm sure makes it very appealing to Jon Gosselin or certain members of the "Jersey Shore" crew.

    Whatever the case, Liv transformed her sweater into a super-short sweater dress by adding black tights and heels. The "Incredible Hulk" actress finished off her look by slinging on a beautifully-cut Givenchy Resort 2011 blazer.

    Kanye chose to accessorize his top with leather pants, a black jacket, Ann Demeulemeester high-top sneakers, dark shades, and some serious 'tude.

  • Paris Pret a Porter

    The beautiful outfits on the runway aren't the only attraction at Paris Fashion Week. Nicole Richie, Kanye West, and Blake Lively are just a few of the celebs who have been spotted in the City of Light to view the fall/winter collections, and whether they're sitting front row, or attending glamorous parties, the stars are every bit as fashionable as the models striding the catwalks.

    Although there are still a few days left of Paris Fashion Week, it's already made plenty of headlines. As well as praise for the beautiful collections presented by fashion houses including Givenchy and Gaultier, the fashion community has also been feeling the effects of John Galliano's dismissal from his position as creative director of Christian Dior after his drunken anti-Semitic rants were captured on YouTube. But, as they say, the show must go on -- and it did, though the Dior show was sorely lacking the star-studded front row it usually attracts.

  • Willow Smith Debuts ’21st Century Girl’ Video

    Following the mega success of her debut smash hit, "Whip Your Hair," 10-year-old Willow Smith has released the new video for her latest single, "21st Century Girl." Though the new song might not have quite the same addictive vibe as "Whip," it's a solid sophomore effort.

    In the video, the miniature diva transforms a barren desert into a 21st century landscape, complete with skyscrapers and parking meters, and shows off some funky dance moves that Britney would be jealous of.

    The newly-minted pop star is pretty much leaving her big brother Jaden in her dust these days. On Friday night, Willow won the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding New Artist (beating Nicky Minaj and Bruno Mars, among others), and is currently opening for Justin Bieber on the international leg of his tour. "I am going to Dublin, to ROCK THE BEAT!!!! Are you ready for the rockin' show!!??" Willow tweeted last night.

  • Fashion Faceoff: Jennifer vs. Salma

    Ladies and gents, we've got two very glamorous ladies -- Jennifer Hudson and Salma Hayek -- who both decided to wear the same embellished black-and-gold Alexander McQueen top. Question is ... who wore it better?

    Last month, Jennifer Hudson showed off her fab new body in the flattering Alexander McQueen top while backstage at the 53rd annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. JHud paired her shirt with black leggings, funky peep-toes, and glossy blunt bangs.

    Back in November 2010, Salma donned the military-style top for the Women's Wear Daily CEO Summit and Keynote Dinner at the Plaza Hotel in New York City, where she was accompanied by her businessman husband, Francois Pinault, who is head of PPR -- the company that owns a controlling interest in the Gucci Group ... which happens to own the Alexander McQueen label, along with Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent. Got that?

    Salma, who was playing brand ambassador for the night, accessorized her McQueen Resort 2011 creation with long,

  • Travis Barker’s Little Rockers

    Travis Barker out with his kids Landon and Alabama. - The Media Circuit/INFphoto.comSporting a fierce Mohawk, tons of tattoos, and casual camouflage pants, Blink 182 rocker Travis Barker was spotted out furniture shopping in Beverly Hills with his kids, Landon and Alabama, on Thursday. Who knew Travis was so domestic?!

    Showing a flair for punk style just like his dad, 7-year-old Landon rocked green-tinged hair, skinny jeans, and funky red suspenders, while his little sister, 5-year-old Alabama, went for a more Lady Gaga vibe, opting for a mini varsity jacket paired with black Converse kicks. The kids' mom is Barker' ex-wife, Playboy model Shanna Moakler.

    Barker's debut solo album, Give The Drummer Some, is due to hit stores on March 15, but in a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the drummer revealed that due to his 2008 small plane crash -- where he and DJ AM (who died of a drug overdose almost one year later) were the only survivors -- the album almost didn't get made.

    Barker went through 16 surgeries on his road to recovery. During the process, he almost lost a

  • The First Lady Hits the Books

    First Lady Michelle Obama, Jessica Alba, and a slew of other celebs joined nearly 400 kids at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. to celebrate the National Education Association's 14th annual Read Across America campaign on Wednesday.

    The event, which is held on Dr. Seuss' birthday every year -- he would have turned 107 in 2011! -- aims to encourage kids of all ages to get excited about reading, and the first lady kicked off the proceedings in D.C. by reading Seuss' classic, Green Eggs and Ham.

    "Shear Genius" host Camila Alves, who has two children with Matthew McConaughey, revealed that at the Alves/McConaughey pad, "Everybody is into reading," and added that her 2-year-old son Levi is into "anything related with trucks or airplanes."

    Jessica Alba, who brought her adorable 2-year-old daughter Honor to the event, told reporters that she was passionate about supporting literacy programs, saying, "I read to my daughter. We love books, she loves Dr. Seuss. Her favorite Dr.
