This is beyond shocking! Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ husband Russell Armstrong 47,  (Taylor Armstrong’s husband) has allegedly committed suicide TMZ is reporting. They are also reporting that he had hung himself and was found in his Mulholland home Monday night.

Russell and Taylor had been separated after going  through a very rocky marriage with Taylor filing for divorce last month claiming physical abuse. The two have a young daughter together. His business past has also been considered shady by many.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.

…..story developing.

UPDATE: Omg it gets worse. TMZ has provided the following update:

8:13 AM: Bravo and the cast of “Real Housewives” were unaware of Russell’s death.Kyle Richards was distraught when she saw the TMZ post, and Lisa Vanderpumpwas speechless.

This conflicts with the fact that Taylor was made aware of his death. I’m sure she would have told the other ladies, especially Kyle. I wonder if she did in fact know?

We’ll keep updating as we here things. Follow us on Twitter where we will re-post when updated.

Jay-Z is one generous tipper. Sunday night Jay-Z threw a party to celebrate his “Watch the Throne,” album with Kanye West.

The affair cost him $250,000 and as a result the generous mogul left a $50,000 tip. That’s a 20% tip so that really is not over-the-top, but us minions are just not used to having a $250,000 restaurant/bar bill now are we? A source tells Radar Online:

“He bought bottle after bottle of Ace of Spades and then went all out with the 15-liter bottle that cost $100,000 on its own!”

The same source also said the reason for the extravagent night:

“Jay knew that Mark Cuban spent over $100,000 after the Mavs won the championship a few months ago, and he wasn’t about to be upstaged,”

That sounds like a ridiculous reason to me. Jay-Z has more money than a lot of small countries. He spent that much because he has that much. It`s how he rolls bitches!

Do you think spending $250,000 on a single party is too much, or who cares?

Lionsgate has released a few new images for their new movie, The Hunger Games. We’ve already gotten a poster and a few other images. For a movie that’s still filming, I think that’s pretty generous Lionsgate obviously has a different approach than say Warner Brothers, the studio behind The Dark Knight Rises. (If they gave up some pics, the paps might leave their set alone. Yeah right. Sorry that cracked me up too).

The Hunger Games is being directed by Gary Ross and stars Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss , Josh Hutcherson as Peet​, Liam Hemsworth as Gale, Elizabeth Banks as Effie.

Synopsis: In a not-too-distant future, the United States of America has collapsed, weakened by drought, fire, famine, and war, to be replaced by Panem, a country divided into the Capitol and 12 districts. Each year, two young representatives from each district are selected by lottery to participate in The Hunger Games. Part entertainment, part brutal intimidation of the subjugated districts, the televised games are broadcasted throughout Panem as the 24 participants are forced to eliminate their competitors, literally, with all citizens required to watch. When 16-year-old Katniss’ young sister, Prim, is selected as the mining district’s female representative, Katniss volunteers to take her place. She and her male counterpart, Peeta, the son of the town baker who seems to have all the fighting skills of a lump of bread dough, will be pitted against bigger, stronger representatives who have trained for this their whole lives.

The Hunger Games is due for release March 23, 2012 everywhere.

Christina Aguilera may be a household name because of her powerhouse vocals, but she also can get star struck my those that she admires. Singer Adele is such a person that Christina admires. Christina attended Adele’s concert last night in Los Angeles and tweeted the above picture:

Me & Adele. “Someone Like You” is my favorite! Beautiful to see all her fans sing it tonight! love u Adele

She also included the one below with:

Another with Adele after LA show. Love her!

It’s nice to see girls supporting one another in the same field. I love that Christina is such a person. These ladies are two of my very favorite singers!

PLEASE let this be true! Word is that Sex and The City is heading back to television, bitches! How amazing is that. Can you imagine seeing Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis back? Although the first Sex and The City movie was good, I don’t think the second one was at all. Sorry, just my opinion. But for it to come back to T.V.? That is sweet indeed.

According to the Daily Mail Sarah Jessica Parker is contemplating the return to television but Darren Star (the show’s creator gets the final say. A source to the Daily Mail says:

“She was worried about doing another film after the bad reaction to the SATC2 movie, but a TV show is definitely something she wants to happen”

They are talking about the show being a ‘prequel’ which means other stars will be playing younger versions of Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha and Miranda. Some names being batted around as top contenders are Elizabeth Olsen, Blake Lively, Selena Gomez and Emma Roberts. That’s all fine and dandy, but I think the audience is looking to see the original ladies return. I don’t care how good those actresses are, they aren’t the original ladies.

Are you excited about Sex and The City returning to television? Would you want the original ladies, or the new ones?

Conan the Barbarian had its European premiere over the weekend at Empire Magazine’s Big Screen Film Festival in London. Conan himself, Jason Momoa was in attendance. My new toyboy (Sorry Lisa, but there’s too much Momoan goodness for just one woman. I’m pretty sure it’s mandated by Hyborian law that you share) was as ‘eclectic’ as usual in his sartorial choices, but frankly, who the hell cares.  I just know he doesn’t.  Frankly, I’d have preferred that he come in costume.

Last week, Jason told Crave online that he was writing the sequel to Conan the Barbarian himself. If he has his way, meaning his version of the script is accepted and the first one makes enough money to warrant a second one, Momoa wants to “get into more of the mythical creatures” that they didn’t have the budget for this time around.

“…really it’s about the villain, what that villain is going to extract from Conan, and where as an actor I want to go with Conan. You know, no one’s going to know what I want to do better than me...We want to incorporate…different things, because obviously you don’t just want to do the [existing] story, because the fans already know it. You want to keep them on their toes. So, I think we have a good lock on it. Also, I feel it’s beautiful… How many actors get to go in there and go, “I’m part of the writing process?” and care that much about the character, because he is a fan himself? It’s great. You know some people go like, “… I’m going to be in my trailer.” I want to @#$%ing make a greatConan movie.”

Good luck to him. Personally,  I have absolutely no expectations for this movie, other than I want to sit in the dark and much popcorn while I watch a 6′ 5″ Hawaiian mountain running around killing stuff sans shirt. Conan the Barbarian opens in 3D (and 2D) this Friday August 19 in the US and Canada and 24 August in the UK.
