Selena Gomez hired Katy Perry’s manager

celebrityabout

Selena Gomez is going through some shit right now, it seems. She doesn’t really know her ass from her elbow, so she’s being all erratic and deleting friends from her life, firing her parents as her managers, hanging out with Justin Bieber, etc. Homegirl is all over the place. While Selena’s parents were pretty shocked to get the boot out of nowhere (and had to read about it in the press rather than being told directly, apparently), the show must go on and she needed new representation, so she hired Katy Perry‘s manager, some dude called Bradford Cobb. From US Weekly: Cobb, who was listed as one of Billboard’s 40 executives under 40 in July 2013, has spent more than a decade in the industry making a name for himself, and was instrumental in making Katy Perry a pop superstar. Gomez, who parted ways with her label Hollywood Records, seems ready to reinvent her career. Her 2013 album Stars Dance was her first number one on the Billboard 200, with hits “Come & Get It” and “Slow Down.” Bless her heart – I guess she’s trying. Before all that, though, I think she’d do way better with some proper rehab/counseling. It’s not your management that’s the issue, girl, it’s your life choices. Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Leave Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult alone

celebrityabout

Jennifer Lawrence will play the Hollywood game as much as she can – being charming and down-to-earth in interviews, being in great movies, yada yada – but she’s not too fond of the paparazzi, especially when she’s just trying to spend time with boyfriend Nicholas Hoult. The pair were out and about in London and JLaw got a little tired of the photographers following her, so she turned around and flipped the bird. Here’s E! Online‘s full scoop of their day out, since apparently they have stalkers following celebrities 24/7: After dinner, the two went to the Dorchester bar and snuck out of the side door into a pink taxi cab, which was adorned with a picture of newlyweds holding hands in paradise. Fittingly, Lawrence flipped the bird as the taxi drove off with the words “Love is all you need” printed above her head on the back of the cab. According to eyewitness, Jennifer was not happy to see the cameras, and Nicholas tried to get her to put her hand down, but she kept it up until the paps were out of sight. Earlier in the day, the two were spotted lunching for just less than two hours at the Italian restaurant Pesantissimo in London, where they were seen enjoying some wine after they finished their meal. According to an eyewitness, the couple was very cute together—they were joking around a lot and were really enjoying each other’s company. Nicholas was on the phone at one point and in signature Lawrence fashion, the Oscar winner was laughing and making faces at the X Men star. She even grabbed the phone from Nicholas and laughed with the person on the phone as well. The two were left alone during lunch; no one approached them for autographs or pics. The source added that the loved-up couple was very sweet with each other, holding hands as they walked. I mean, I really didn’t need to know all that, but okay. I am glad that these two are still together, though. I think they make a cute couple! Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

So, George Clooney just got engaged…

celebrityabout

If ever a time came when the apocalypse seemed closer than ever, that day is today, because George Clooney is apparently engaged. The world’s biggest bachelor and sexy silver fox is said to have proposed to girlfriend Amal Alamuddin. Keep in mind they’ve been dating less than a year, and the news is coming from the New York Post’s Page Six, but it seems pretty solid. Alamuddin, 36, was spotted showing off an engagement ring as she and Clooney, 52, dined at Nobu in Malibu on Thursday night with Cindy Crawford and husband Rande Gerber. A source told Page Six, “George and Amal hoped keep the engagement quiet, but they can’t hide the fact that they are very happy.” When contacted on Friday night by Page Six, Clooney’s rep Stan Rosenfield didn’t confirm or deny the engagement, simply telling us, “I do not comment on his personal life.” Huh, very strange. Is this all to get back at Stacy Keibler and her shotgun wedding/pregnancy? He hardly seems the jealous/vindictive type, but I suppose it takes all kinds. Bizarre! Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Will Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney get married?

celebrityabout

I don’t know why I’m shocked that Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney are still going strong. I literally know nothing about their relationship (or about Taylor Kinney full stop), but for some reason it’s somewhat shocking to me that they’re not only still together but apparently pretty in love and doing really well. Huh, go figure. From US Weekly: “It’s someone who’s always in your corner, that believes in you and your work, and vice versa,” Kinney said of his longterm girlfriend. “You know, I love what she does and her work and music and charity. She inspires so many people including myself.” When asked if he was ready to settle down with the NYC native, he coyly paused and smiled before saying, “Not that I’ll talk about.” Aw, well ain’t that sweet? I honestly cannot imagine what Gaga must be like in a relationship. Like, when she’s not “on” and acting like she just escaped from an insane asylum – when she’s just Stefani Germanotta. She can’t possibly be nuts all the time. Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Katy Perry’s ‘Birthday’ video is here and it’s kind of hilarious

celebrityabout

We’ve seen a lyric video and a character teaser video for Katy Perry‘s new single, ‘Birthday’, which seems like a whole lot of lead up that the actual video would have a hard time living up to, right? Well, wrong… sorta. The full-length video is here, and it’s bizarre, slightly uncomfortable but also pretty hilarious. I don’t think much else needs to be said. Just watch and… enjoy?
