Jealous Bon Jovi Throws a Hissy Fit Over U2
Jon Bon Jovi gets in a fame fight with Bono. Lindsay Lohan "made some friends" in jail. Paris Hilton humiliates her ex-boyfriend. Pooping pigeons ruin a Kings of Leon show. Monday gossip takes sides.
- Jon Bon Jovi threw an alleged hissy fit because he didn't make two of the Forbes wealth/power/megalomaniac lists he was eligible for this year: The "Power 100" celebrity list, and the self-explanatory "Musicians' Rich List." U2 was ranked first in the latter (I always suspected Bono got under Bon Jovi's skin) and even Britney Spears made the list. Asked for comment, Bon Jovi's publicist denied the temper tantrum, then added that he'll totally be on next year's list, so don't write an item about this, OK? [P6, image via Bauer-Griffin]
- Lindsay Lohan "has made some friends" in jail, according to lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley, who is optimistic about being able to spring LiLo from the pokey early. [Us, TMZ]
- Paris Hilton was partying in St. Tropez with mysterious Malaysian party impresario Jho Low (does this mean she's getting paid to be there?) when ex-boyfriend Doug Reinhardt walked in. "She asked the deejay to announced, 'Paris wants Doug Reinhardt to get out.' He left 30 minutes later with his head down." As far as ex-lover disses go, that one is admittedly rather awesome. [P6]
- A plague of pooping pigeons forced the Kings of Leon to abandon an outdoor concert in St. Louis this weekend. Apparently the bassist got hit twice by flying poop, including once in the face. [CNN]
- Angelina Jolie and her "rainbow family" arrived in Tokyo for the Salt premiere and the pictures reveal that Shiloh is taller, now, than petite Zahara; Pax imitates Dad in beige linen suit, aviator sunglasses, and a hat; Maddox dresses like a tiny b-boy. [DailyMail]
- Every time newlyweds John Krasinski and Emily Blunt go in public, gossip pages overfloweth with items about their "side-splitting conversation" and "laughter-filled" nights. I'm waiting for the day they host a somber reading from The Seagull. [People]
- A group of people known to one another specifically because they are shameless, have turned on their most shameless member: The stars of Jersey Shore all hate The Situation, who has taken this fame thing too far. [P6]
- Miss USA Rima Fakih—the Arab-American beauty queen who will end global terrorism with her rampant sexiness—went partying and "caught the eye" of male model Tyson Beckford. She met a bunch of Olympians and stuff, too. [P6]
- Sean Penn and model ex-girlfriend Jessica White "kissed, sat close, and ignored everyone" on a night on the town. I don't care who he dates so much as when we will finally get to hear one of his rant-y phone calls. He seems like a ranter, no? I wonder what inappropriate lines he crosses rhetorically in the privacy of his phone? [P6]
- Desperately bankrupt Real Housewife of New Jersey Teresa Giudice tried to charge $3000 to appear at a charity event for abused women. The organizer "felt angry, but now I feel sorry." Like grief, reality star revulsion comes in stages. [P6]
- Hugh Laurie, the man sometimes known as Dr. House, is recording a blues album. [Telegraph]
