The Dishing Diva

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

Vanessa Hudgen’s is on the cover of the May 2009 issue of Self Magazine. She also has a starring role in a new film named, Bandslam.

Here’s just five of the 25 things in the May 2009 issue of Self Magazine that she shares with her fans.

On one of her fave celebs: “I’m in love with Angelina Jolie. Everything she does, I adore.”

On her favorite animal: “I love snakes. I think they’re sexy. Not in the wild, of course, but pet snakes.”

On where she wants to take her acting career: “I’d like to do an action film where I could kick someone’s ass. I want to be strong and empowered. I want to shock everybody.”

On the craziest she’s ever eaten: “A fruit bat — specialty in the Seychelles islands. They cooked it in red wine. It was really, really dark, grainy meat. It was quite frightening.”

On what her dad passed down to her: “I have really strong legs. I inherited them from my dad, who has tree stumps for legs, basically. I’ve got big calves that look good. When I wear heels, it looks like I’ve worked out my legs a lot, which is why I love them. I also have a big, big big toe. I call it my goat toe. I can climb anything.”

It’s not profound stuff, then again, what can a 20 year old from California that’s grown up doing Disney movies have to say? She’s young, and I don’t think she has any profound political views yet, though as she matures, it will be interesting to read more of what she has to say. I’m looking forward to her doing action film, I think that would be a great direction for her to go in, especially with her big ‘goat toe’ enabling her to climb anything !!

Vanessa’s on-and-off-screen boyfriend, Zac Efron, is on the May 2009 cover of GQ.

UsWeekly asked Stevie Nicks frontwoman for the band Fleetwood Mac what her thoughts were about Lindsay Lohan playing her in a movie, Stevie said:

“Over my dead body. She needs to stop doing drugs and get a grip. Then maybe we’ll talk.”

Stevie struggled hard to get clean and went through two stays in Betty Ford to kick coke and Klonopin so it makes sense to me why wouldn’t want Lindsay whose behaviour lately has been way too erratic to play her. In fact, the “…Then maybe we’ll talk” is more than reasonable to me.

Zac Efron is seen here posing with his Breakthrough Performer of the Year Award — at the ShoWest awards ceremony at the Paris Las Vegas on Thursday (April 2) in Las Vegas, Nevada. Congrats Zac.

While at the event, he explained to EW why he turned down the role of Ren McCormack in Footloose saying:

“I’m sure Footloose would have been a huge challenge but the actors that I love and the actors that work really hard in this industry are always shaking things up, trying new genres, acquiring new skill sets. That’s what’s always going to appeal to me: the unknown.”

Here’s a great little clip of Zac when he made a guest appearance on Ellen Degeneres’s show about emulating her hairstyle:

Paris Hilton’s younger bro, Barron Hilton, partied with Snoop Dogg and Leven Rambin in New York City yesterday. Leven is currently starring in, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

Barron, who is 19, told Page Six that he’s pursuing a career in music and has already begun recording tracks at his apartment:

“I want to be an international singer-songwriter,I’m sick of all the Hilton stuff, where all anyone cared about was whether I was doing coke in the bathroom or how many b—— I was sleeping with. I’m done with partying and traveling. It’s time to get this s— started.”

Barron also told about how he is developing a reality show with Viacom:

“It’s gonna be like The Hills, but real,” he says. “A lot of that stuff is pre-setup or re-setup. This is gonna show the meetings, the production side, the recording side . . . I just want people to say, ‘Wow, this song really moved me, or made me cry.’ “

Well if he’s done with traveling, how does he intend on becoming an international artist?

Madonna arrived in Malawi earlier this week with all of her children — David, 3, Lourdes 12, and Rocco, 8. She created quite an impression with her arrival when she flew in on her private jet and debarked from the plane wearing a 2000K Channel track suit.

Liz Rosenberg, Madonna’s rep has now confirmed that she is trying to adopt a 4 year old girl named Chifundo “Mercy” James.

According to the AP release, the girl’s birth mom was 18, unmarried young teenager who died soon after she gave birth. The child’s birth father is thought to be alive but has little contact with his daughter as she has been living in an orphanage.

Madonna spent time visiting the child care center her charity founded as well as took her adopted son David to meet his biological father for the first time since he left Malawi with her back in 2006.

“Madonna is committed to maintaining an ongoing relationship with David’s Malawian roots,” Madonna’s statement added.

The judge in the case has delayed the hearing due to the negative publicity surrounding Madonna’s wishes to fast-track the adoption of another child from the country.

Fergie is seen here wearing her own shoe design as she launches her two fashion shoe lines at Nordstroms at The Grove on Saturday (March 21) in Los Angeles.

“The Fergie brand consumer admires ‘Fergie the Fashionista’ and wants trend-right shoes that move easily from day to evening. The woman who wears Fergalicious by Fergie relates to ‘Fergie the Pop Culture Icon,’ and seeks shoes with an edgy look,” said Brown Shoe Wholesale President Gary Rich.

Fergie was quoted saying:

“After months of working with the designers and watching ideas and sketches come to life, it’s time for the fun part – wearing the shoes! Both lines capture the essence of my style, and I’m looking forward to the reactions as women begin seeing the shoes on the shelves and deciding which ones to add to their closets. I know I have quite a few pairs in mine!”

Madonna has supposedly kicked Jesus Luz’s a** to the curb.

I wonder if it’s because she read the scandalous Daily Star report on what lingerie model Luciana Costa had to say about her and Jesus spending a romantic weekend together in Brazil?

Or could it be because Madonna didn’t want her relationship with a cheatin’ toy boy affecting her chances of adopting another child from Malawi? Madonna recently was quoted saying:

“Many people, especially our Malawian friends, say that David should have a Malawian brother or sister. It’s something I have been considering, but would only do if I had the support of the Malawian people and government.”

Some inside source close to Madonna told the Daily Star:

“She was drawn to Jesus. But it was just a bit of fun and she’s enjoyed herself, but she is growing bored of the relationship and her family comes first. He would ruin her chances of adopting again. And the pictures of him with Luciana made her realize that he’ll be better suited to somebody his own age.”

Nicole Richie has debuted her very own official website at NicoleRichie.com.

Her first blog entry is about her new fashion jewelry line:

“Design has always been a passion of mine. And jewelry is only the beginning. I’m ultimately going to expand into clothing, shoes and sunglasses… My design philosophy is simple: whatever inspires me… whether it’s people, places or music.”

Nicole is expecting her second child with fiance Joel Madden, and there are rumours they are planning on getting married before the baby arrives:

“They are old-fashioned in some ways. Now their second baby is coming, they both want to make it legal,” an insider tells.

The insider went on to say that Nicole already has a vintage Yves Saint Laurent dress waiting to be worn:

“It’s been hanging in the back of her closet. She always planned to wear it on a very special occasion.”

Kelly’s 4th album, All I Ever Wanted has had an impressive debut at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 with 254,111 albums sold and #1 on the Digital Album Chart. This marks Kelly’s first #1 album since her debut in 2002.

That’s just a wee bit behind Clarkson’s last album, the troubled My December. It moved 291,000 in its first week back in June 2007. Her hit single “My Life Would Suck Without You,” makes her poised for a solid comeback.

Also debuting on the charts is the second album from songwriter/producer The-Dream, Love Vs. Money, which hit the #2 spot and racked up 151,000 in sales, beating out U2’s No Line on the Horizon.

In these tough economic times, it’s an encouragement for the music industry as the totals for the top three represent the first time this year that a trio of discs in the top 10 has passed the 100K-plus mark!

Fergie is seen here at the Record Plant Recording Studios on Monday (March 16) in Los Angeles, Calif.

The Black Eyed Peas are reuniting and working on an upcoming album called “The E.N.D.,” which is due to drop in June.

Fergie’s new brunette hair colour that she showed off at the March of Dimes 34th annual Beauty Ball last week in New York City put a stop to the pregnancy rumors as hair dyes are not safe for pregnant women. She also confirmed she wasn’t with child when she said:

“I’m not going to be because I’m going on tour. I wouldn’t want to do that to the poor child.”

The E.N.D. stands for “the energy never dies” apparently.
