CELEBRITIES N MONEY

Friday, October 17, 2008

Super Model Sophie Anderton caught on camera in sex and drug sting.

Sophie Anderson, supermodel and star of I’m A Celebrity, has been caught on camera offering sex for $23,000 (£10,000) a night at a flat in Mayfair, London, and snorting cocaine.
In a secret rendezvous with an undercover reporter from the British tabloid News of the World, Sophie Anderton, 30, is seen on camera stripping to her G-string and stilettos and spreading herself across a bed, saying “I’m great at sex.”
Sophie also bragged about her friendship with Prince Andrew.
The supermodel, who had publicly stated that she has kicked her years-old drug addiction, is heard discussing the fee and suggesting nearly $35,000 (£15,000) a night for a weekend of sex in the Bahamas with her and a friend.
The News of the World report also said that Sophie Anderton repeatedly criticized rival supermodel Kate Moss and actress Sienna Miller.
Besides I’m A Celebrity, Sophie Anderton has appeared in Cirque De Celebrité and Love Island.
Sophie, who made her name modeling Gossard bras, has been working for the company since 2005.
Now, a shocked and shamed Sophie is reportedly defending the charges of cocaine abuse and prostitution by saying that “I just get lonely and wanted to earn some money for my future.”
Sophie is now “trying to check back into rehab,” media reported a close friend of her as saying, adding, “she has been in floods of tears and has been allegedly screaming down the phone to her friends since the story broke.”
A source said Sophie fears that she will never be able to recover from this colossal scandal and that her modeling career has come to an end. The source added, “Sophie’s pals are all trying to make her go to rehab and have told her to forget modeling for now – her state of mind and health are far more important. But she’s finding it hard to see this. Sophie knows that she’s been no angel in the past, but she feels totally ashamed that she’s been caught out like this.”
After the scandal was revealed by News of the World, Sophie Anderton lost a modeling contract, worth £100,000, with Fake Bake. According to media reports, a spokesperson for Fake Bake said, “We operate a no-tolerance policy towards drug use, so feel we have been left with no alternative than to terminate Sophie’s contract.”
What is worse, one of her friends reportedly said, Sophie is now terrified that a sex tape she made with her ex-boyfriend, footballer Mark Bosnich, will now be made public.

JAY-Z dedicates "99 problems" song to Sarah Palin and MacCain!!

Less than a month after DJ AM walked away from a fiery jet crash in Columbia, South Carolina, that killed four people and seriously wounded him and Travis Barker, AM reclaimed his place behind the decks Wednesday night, joining rapper Jay-Z for a special concert celebrating the reopening of the Hollywood Palladium.
Hov and AM (born Adam Goldstein) proved to be a formidable duo, performing for nearly two hours, with the support of tuxedo-clad brass and rhythm sections. Aside from the visible scars and bald patches on his head (AM has undergone two skin-graft surgeries), AM's stage presence had not changed since the accident, as he rapped along with Jay-Z from behind the turntables. The Palladium show was the DJ's first live appearance since the crash.
Jay-Z clearly appreciated AM's presence, calling on the audience to "make some noise for DJ AM" three separate times throughout the concert. Jay also gave a shout-out to Barker and the people who died in the crash, saying, "We're gonna party it up for them tonight."
But not all the shout-outs were so celebratory. Without naming names, Jay dedicated "99 Problems" to John McCain and a certain "homegirl," whom he described as "the one who says 'You betcha.' "
"I'm gonna get in trouble for this," Jay laughed onstage, "but f--- it, this is freedom of speech."
Of course, what Jay-Z show would be complete without a special guest? Earlier in the evening, T.I. — whose Paper Trail is the top-selling album in the country, Jay reminded the crowd — joined Hov onstage for two out of the four verses of "Swagger Like Us."
AM will also be appearing with Jay-Z Thursday night (October 16) in Houston and October 25 in Charlottesville, Virginia. The Associated Press reports that AM will resume his residency at Caesars Palace's Pure nightclub in Las Vegas next week.

Oprah Winfrey remains the #1 richest celebrity according to 2008 forbes analysis!

It is the year of the tween. Coming off a massive concert tour, a hit 3-D movie--and a risqué picture in Vanity Fair--pop star Miley Cyrus (aka Hannah Montana) leads a slew of young stars onto Forbes' annual Celebrity 100 ranking of the world's ultra-famous.
Also building buzz, and drawing dollars, from the under-18 crowd were Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe, teen crooners the Jonas Brothers and High School Musical stars Zac Efron and Ashley Tisdale.
Oprah Winfrey remains No. 1 on the Celebrity 100, a power ranking based on both earnings and fame. Despite weakening television ratings and magazine circulation, Winfrey earned $275 million before taxes in the past 12 months, and she remains one of the most famous faces in the world.
The Celebrity 100 is Forbes' list of the world's most powerful--and best-paid--celebrities. To generate the list, Forbes estimates celebrity earnings, then factors in media metrics like Google hits, press mentions as compiled by Factiva, TV/radio mentions from Lexis/Nexis and the number of times an A-lister appears on the cover of more than 50 consumer magazines.
Earnings estimates are for June 2007 to June 2008 and consist of dollars earned solely from entertainment-related income. Management, agent and attorney fees are not deducted.
Golf star Tiger Woods retained the No. 2 spot on the list, raking in $115 million on and off the course, while actress Angelina Jolie soared to the third spot, combining $14 million in earnings with unrivaled levels of fame.
Joining Jolie in the top 10 is boyfriend Brad Pitt, with whom she is expecting twins. Pitt banked $20 million in the past 12 months and was often spotted on the covers of magazines with Jolie as the two traveled the world promoting movies and working for various charities.
Another power couple in the top 10: pop star Beyoncé Knowles (No. 4) and hip-hop mogul Jay-Z (No. 7). Beyoncé had a monster year, pulling in $80 million between a highly successful concert tour, private shows, a fashion line, endorsement deals and film work. Jay-Z left Def Jam Records to sign a $150 million deal with concert promoter Live Nation (nyse: LYV - news - people ). The deal provides the rapper and entrepreneur with money for recording, tours and other entertainment endeavors for the next decade.
Hip-hop impresario 50 Cent was the third-highest earner on the list (he ranked 26th overall), taking in $150 million before taxes. Last summer Coca-Cola (nyse: KO - news - people ) paid $4.1 billion for Glaceau, the beverage company that owns Vitamin Water. The self-admitted former drug dealer owned a small stake in the company.
The highest-ranked actor on the list is Johnny Depp, in sixth place. Depp made $72 million last year, much of it earned on the "back end" of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, which grossed more than $950 million worldwide. Will Smith, ranked 11th, is the highest paid actor in Hollywood, bringing home $80 million, including an estimated $20 million for his role in the upcoming anti-superhero flick Hancock.
This year 27 newcomers make the list. Among them: rock band the Police, who sold $200 million worth of tickets and played to 4 million fans during a massive international tour. Daily Show host Jon Stewart, The Office's Steve Carell and reality-TV personality Lauren Conrad are also notable new members.
Methodology
The Celebrity 100 measures power, which boils down to two components: money and fame. Earnings estimates are for June 2007 to June 2008. We included income from endorsements, movies or other ventures only if the celebrity has been paid, applying the same rules to entertainment-related ventures. Management, agent and attorney’s fees have not been deducted. Figures were rounded off where appropriate. Sources include Billboard, Pollstar, Adams Media Research, Nielsen SoundScan, Nielsen BookScan and SNL Kagan. How do we “calculate” fame? From Web hits on Google Blog Search, TV/radio mentions on LexisNexis, overall press mentions on Factiva and the number of times a celebrity’s image appeared on the cover of 55 consumer magazines.

Britney took to da top!!!

Britney Spears took a bit of an, um, "hiatus" from the music business -- yeah, that’s a nice way of putting it. But the break seems to have paid off. Her new single, “Womanizer,” has zoomed up to number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Billboard said the song, the first from a new Spears album due for release in December, jumped from No.96 to No.1 in the past week and returned Spears to the top of the list for the first time since her 1999 debut single "Baby One More Time."The unprecedented leap of "Womanizer" was spurred by first-week download sales of 286,000, the biggest opening week tally by a female artist since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking digital downloads in 2003. Circus will be released on December 2, 2008 -- a great way to celebrate Brit’s 27th birthday.
