The Dishing Diva

I’ll Dish It, and the Celebrities can Eat It Up

Attention New York Partiers!

Diddy is offering free cab rides to New Yorkers this New Year’s Eve .

Diddy and Ciroc premium vodka have teamed up with City Taxi & Limousine Commission and E! Entertainment to distribute thousands of debit cards, valued up to $15.

Diddy had this to say:
“New York is the world’s most iconic New Year’s Eve City, so let’s lead by example and show everyone that a sophisticated holiday celebration doesn’t just end when the ball drops, but when everyone gets home safely.”

Teams will distribute the debit cards on the streets, in the Times Square and Chelsea’s nightclub areas between 11PM on New Year’s Eve and 3AM on New Year’s Day.

For your information:

Starpulse has informed Diddy fans what his personal hygiene routine is while he gets in the mood and gets gets ready to go out. He told them the following:

“It takes me an hour and a half to get ready to go out. I meditate for a bit. Then I pick out an outfit that takes 20 minutes. Then I shower, and when I get out of the shower, I don’t towel dry, I air dry. I have air dry fans in my room. Then I do some push ups and crunches. Then I dance around the room a bit.”

I totally dig the dancing around part… I mean doesn’t everyone who is anyone do that?! The air drying? This is something new to me. It seems that Diddy doesn’t like the feeling of towels! This was reported in the UK Sun three years ago… I must have missed that.

He said he never uses towels and that he does use “certain bath salts and bath oils or bath and shower gels then I just walk around, watch the news.”

He is odd.

Rihanna and Chris Brown are pictured here shopping together at the Louis Vuitton store around Champs Elysees on Thursday (December 18) in Paris, France. She’s in France because tomorrow (Friday 19) night she’s going to perform live on the Star Academy final show.

Love the sunglasses at night.

Rihanna is wearing a black on black ensemble. I quite like the ruffly top and skin tight legging pants. Chris played the dutiful boyfriend role and waited around while she shopped to her heart’s content. He is wearing a necklace with a Stormtrooper pendant (the soldiers with white body armor from Star Wars.)

Jennifer Lopez at the film premiere of The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button strikes a curvy pose in an ivory Roberto Cavalli gown with a plunging neckline. The event was held at Mann’s Village Theatre on Monday in Westwood, Calif.

Jennifer is now 39-year-old and the proud mama-of-twins accessorized with Neil Lane jewels and a sparkly clutch from Daniel Swarovski.

Jennifer walked the red carpet with her manager Benny Medina and the CEO of Paramount Pictures Brad Grey.

A sparkly cane fit for a prince!

Prince is one of the rare breed of artist that has won multiple Grammys over the past 20 years. He is also in the category of being one of the few artists from the 1980’s still making award winning (and very popular) music.

He has sold more than 25 albums.

Word has it that the legendary singer has been going door-to-door all over LA in an attempt to spread the word of the Jehovah’s Witnesses.

Prince told last week’s New Yorker that he became part of the Christian denomination two years ago and has made it his mission to get out there and knock on as many doors as possible.

He said:

“Sometimes people act surprised, but mostly they’re totally cool about it,”

He explains his conversion as something of “a realization: “

It’s like Morpheus and Neo in ‘The Matrix.’ “

How cool would it be to have Prince show up at your doorstep on a random afternoon? I’d definitely invite him inside to hear what he had to say.

New parents Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz must be hiring a sitter for the night as both are scheduled to host Pure Nightclub’s New Year’s Eve party in Las Vegas.

The two of them will host a very special club-wide countdown to midnight as fireworks shoot above the Sin City skyline. If you’d like to ring in 2009 and celebrate PURE’s fourth fabulous year get your tickets early. DJ Hollywood will be doing the music for the fantastic soiree all night long.

The club is located inside Caesars Palace, just South of the resort’s Race and Sports Book.

Advance tickets cost $200 and can be purchased as well as table reservations made by calling 702.731.7873 or visiting http://www.purelv.com/newyears/.

Celine Dion will not be wrapping up her Taking Chances tour in Montreal as previously expected.

She has extended her Taking Chances tour and will not end it in Montreal on February 15 as originally planned but will wrap it up on February 26 in Omaha, Nebraska.

She had to cancel several concerts due to a nasopharyngeal infection, but has now recovered completely from her illness. To make up for the shows, she has added four more dates to her line-up.

She will be doing the following shows: one in San Jose on February 20, Salt Lake City on the 22nd, and Denver on the 24th, according to her Internet site.

Take a listen to Christina’s rendition of Beautiful at CNN Heroes. What an absolutely flawless performance. She has amazing range. I don’t know why people compare and categorize her with Britney or Lady Gaga.

Some people have negatively commented about the runs and embellishments she does in this rendition, but in my opinion, they are completely appropriate for the type of performance she was giving. Runs and embellishments are what truly *showcase* her amazing vocal talent and range, and by doing them she emphasizes that she is not lip-synching.

She received a standing ovation at the end.

Lindsay Lohan’s Mattel Doll has not been selling well (is anyone surprised?) and the price has just been slashed by 80%. The MyScene dolls were released about 4 or 5 years ago back in the day when Lindsay was cool.

Maybe if she had been made into a Bratz doll… they would have sold more of them!

The item description says:

My Scene Goes Hollywood: Lindsay Lohan, by Mattel

Was: $24.99
Sale Price: $4.99

Lights…camera…fashion! The My Scene girls have hit the big time with their new movie, My Scene Goes Hollywood. Making a movie is exciting, but so is meeting their idol, teen queen Lindsay Lohan!

It’s the night of the movie’s premiere, so Lindsay and the My Scene girls are headed down the red carpet in trendy new outfits and stylish coats with faux-fur trim. Lindsay comes with lots of movie-themed accessories, including a director’s chair and a second outfit. Lindsay measures 12″ tall.

Deal of the day, $4.99 for her doll, plus free shipping.

Rihanna reminds me of a combo of Mr. T. and Prince. This look does one thing for sure… takes the focus off her hairstyle. Like seriously… who is this girl’s stylist? Here she is covered in necklaces adorned with silver crucifixes, keys, horseshoes and what looks like hands? while having a bite to eat at the Cafe Med at Sunset Plaza in West Hollywood.

She’s been in rehearsals getting ready for her performace at Sunday’s American Music Awards airing @ 8PM ET/PT on ABC.

Kanye West had this to say about her:

“Rihanna had a really breakout year and became the biggest artist. Like, Rihanna sells more records than me all together if you include her in national sales and she is arguably the biggest artist in the world right now.”
