Khloe Kardashian and her new husband have had matching tattoos.

The 25-year-old socialite and Los Angeles Lakers basketball star Lamar Odom, who she married last month following a whirlwind romance, made the spontaneous decision to permanently mark their love for one another during a romantic dinner in Los Angeles on Saturday October 24.

Khloe revealed on Twitter, “Lamar and I were eating at Sunset Plaza and I just said, ‘Let’s go to Tattoo Mania! I want a tattoo!’”

The couple swiftly finished their meal and headed off to have each other’s initials tattooed on their hands at Los Angeles’ Tattoo Mania.

Their tattooist, Dirk Vanderlinden, told Us Weekly magazine, “They were very sweet with each other – definitely typical newlyweds.

“They were really happy with how their tattoos turned out.”

Khloe, who also has tattoos commemorating her late father Robert, and Lamar are both delighted with their new body art.

Khloe said, “I’m definitely a believer in tattoos as long as they are thoughtful and have significant meaning, which all of mine do.”

A friend of Lamar said, “It was important for him to commemorate his new wife.”

Nicole Richie’s Halloween Dilemma

Nicole Richie and her daughter can’t decide on a Halloween costume for the toddler to wear.

The reality TV star, who has 21-month-old daughter Harlow and newborn Sparrow with partner Joel Madden, says the family are struggling to agree on what outfits they will wear to a ghoulish party on Saturday October 31.

She said, “I wanted Harlow to be something from Alice in Wonderland, but she really wants to be Tinkerbell.”

However, the 28-year-old star – who plans to dress as a white rabbit – says her son is much easier to please than her daughter.

Nicole explained to TV show ‘Extra’, “I will wrap Sparrow up in toilet paper and make him a little mummy. He doesn’t care.”

Meanwhile, Joel – who will miss the spooky bash because of work commitments in Australia – believes he has the perfect costumes for his three loved ones.

He laughed, “I had an idea that I would be the beekeeper and they could be the bees. But that didn’t appeal to Nicole too much!”

Taylor Swift Dating Taylor Lautner

taylor-swrift_taylor-lautner
Taylor Swift is reportedly dating Taylor Lautner.

The 19-year-old singer, who recently said she is looking to start dating again following her split from Jonas Brothers star Joe Jonas last October, fueled rumors of a romance with her 17-year-old ‘Valentine’s Day’ co-star after they were seen at a Los Angeles Kings hockey game together last weekend.

Swift had her driver pick up the actor from Los Angeles LAX airport before they headed to the game together, where Lautner did his best not to be spotted.

A source said, “Taylor Swift was all dolled up and looked super pretty, she didn’t seem to mind the attention.

“Taylor Lautner, on the other hand, was hiding under a sweater.”

This is not the first time the pair have been romantically linked.

Earlier this year, the ‘Twilight’ star was seen “gazing adoringly” at the ‘Love Story’ hitmaker during a concert in Chicago, when she stepped down from the stage to give him a “very special hug”.

The couple shared a kiss on ‘Valentine’s Day’, and Swift said the experience was “life changing”.

Speaking about her co-star, she said recently, “I love him, he’s so cute.”

Lautner has also admitted to having “a crush” on the singer, saying she is “definitely” his type.

Michael Jackson’s Fans Want to Boycott His Film

michael-jackson-this-is-it
Michael Jackson’s fans are boycotting ‘This Is It’, the film about his last performance.

Thousands of the late singer’s followers have formed a group called ‘This Is Not It’, to protest against the movie, which is due to be released on October 28.

The group has accused the AEG and Sony, the firms behind the film, of concealing Michael’s poor health and glossing over the stress he was under as he prepared for his 50-date London residency.

A statement on the group’s website reads, “The true state of Michael Jackson’s failing health was being hidden from you by those who are making a profit from the screening of the ‘This Is It’ movie.

“The movie is made of a careful choice of footage taken during Michael Jackson’s last rehearsals. Out of 110 hours of footage, a few scenes were selected in which Michael Jackson smiled, in spite of being in a dire state.

“The promoters for ‘This Is It’, ignored the signs, ignored the pleas, and in fact, actively covered up the truth. What you will see on that screen is part of that cover up.”

If people do decide to see the film, the ‘This Is Not It’ urges them to “see it with different eyes”.

The statement continues, “Should you decide to watch it, we hope that you will see this movie and the greed that produced it with different eyes, because you are watching the product of those who should bear much guilt for the passing of the world’s greatest entertainer, Michael Jackson.

“This movie is not a true representation of what happened to Michael Jackson in his last weeks, nor is it the polished, live performance that Michael would have wished the world to see. It is their lie. The true story behind is one of neglect, greed, and inhumanity.”

But Michael’s close friend Elizabeth Taylor, who has seen an advance screening of the film, sobbed when she watched the movie because she loved it so much.

Writing on her Twitter account, the iconic actress said, “It is the single most brilliant piece of filmmaking I have ever seen. I wept from pure joy at his God-given gift. There will never, ever be the likes of him again.”

Michael died of acute Propofol intoxication on June 25.

Boondock Saints 2 out Friday, watch the first 5 minutes

boondock saints 2 oct 30

Boondock Saints 2: All Saints Day finally got its release date, and will be in limited theaters on Friday. (October 30th.)

We posted the trailer back at the beginning of September, but Film Drunk posted the first five minutes, and it looks so much delightfully worse than the first one. It’s almost sad in a way- I’m one of the people who views the internet as a great equalizer and who rejects the idea that only established establishment people can create things of worth, but it’s still hard for me to look at these two movies and not think that perhaps things like making films should be left to people like filmmakers. And I hate thinking that.

Troy Duffy still makes movies like the ones my nine year old puts on in the backyard, or so it would appear. The film starts with the McManus boys hiding out in what looks like 1860’s Ireland, a place with no indoor plumbing or electricity and clearly no SuperMac nearby either. Wearing Aran sweaters and being all unshaven with their dad Il Duce (played by Billy Connolly), an old priest friend from Boston comes to tell them (because they’re the only people in Ireland without mobile phones) that someone has murdered their favorite priest and framed the brothers for it.

So Connor and Murphy go outside and shave their craggy beards and take some ass-flashing showers, and dig up their buried treasure chest of money, guns and rosary beads. (Yay for another shower scene!) And then there’s some dialogue that sums up the Boondock Saints movies in like, two lines:

Priest, looking at Connor and Murphy all gunned up and tattooed: Exactly what do you intend to do?

Connor: Every last motherf***er that had anything to do with it.

All that said, I cannot wait to see this cinematic abortion of a film. Watch the first five minutes of Boondock Saints: All Saints Day below:

Donald Trump Loved Daughter’s Unforgettable Wedding

Donald Trump will never forget daughter Ivanka’s wedding day.

The ‘Apprentice’ host was a very proud father as he walked his girl down the aisle on Sunday October 25, as she married publisher Jared Kushner and he knows they will be very happy together.

He said, “It was a spectacular wedding and a day that I will always remember.

“Ivanka and Jared are an amazing couple – I know they will do great things together.”

The 27-year-old heiress’ representative added, “She was the most stunning bride.”

The blonde beauty wore a delicate Vera Wang wedding gown as she tied the knot at her father’s luxurious Trump National Gold Club in New Jersey in front of 500 friends and family.

Speaking before her nuptials, she wrote on Twitter, “Just finished a gorgeous hike. The leaves are spectacular and the sun is shining. Everything is simply perfect! I’m getting married today!”

The night before the wedding, the businesswoman-and-model spent the evening relaxing with a handful of her closest friends.

She wrote, “At a very casual ‘rehearsal’ dinner with friends… just five of my lady friends and me having a casual dinner and getting excited. Perfect!”

Chris Brown Pines Over Photos

rihanna-chris-brown
Chris Brown stays up late looking at photographs of him and Rihanna.

The ‘Run It’ singer turned to his Twitter account during the early hours of Monday morning October 26, where he posted a link to a photo montage video of them in happier times and wrote about his “emotions” about not being with the ‘Disturbia’ songstress anymore.

He wrote, “IM SORRY YALL. JUST HAD TO POST IT (sic)”

He added, “FOR THE FELLAS: showing emotion doesn’t make u weak… BEING HONEST MAKES U STRONG (sic).”

Chris has to stay at least 100 yards away from his ex-girlfriend for the next five years, following his violent attack on her as they left a pre-Grammy Awards party in February.

Last month, he started 180 days of community labor, 12 months of domestic violence counseling and five years probation.

Although at the start of the week the 20-year-old singer opened up about his emotions he has now seemingly decided to stop talking about his feelings on the internet.

In a recent posting he wrote, “IMA TALK ABOUT OTHER SH** FROM NOW ON…. ima fall back lol.. twitter will get u IN TROUBLE…lol (sic).”

Last week, Chris admitted he is still learning from his mistakes and regrets assaulting the songstress.

He said, “I’m human. If people feel a certain way, I’m not going to say they’re wrong. But it’s not right to judge somebody when people make mistakes all the time.

“I’ve learned from my mistakes and I’m learning from them. And I regret every moment, every second of it.”

Madonna Learns From Malawi

madonna
Madonna has been “taught a lot” by Malawi.

The ‘Celebration’ singer, who has adopted two children, Mercy and David, both four, from the African country, says she was “chosen” by the poverty-stricken area to help it anyway she can.

She said, “People always ask me, ‘Why did you choose Malawi?’ But I have always said, ‘Malawi chose me’. Growing up in a privileged life, I took education for granted. Coming to Malawi has taught me a lot.”

The 51-year-old star is currently in Malawi with the two youngsters and their older siblings, Lourdes, 13, and Rocco, nine.

The family flew out to the country for a week-long break, starting with the official opening of her charity’s school, the Raising Malawi Academy for Girls, in Lilongwe yesterday October 26.

Madonna, 51, is working closely on the school – which will reportedly cost $14.8 million to build and will have space for 500 girls – because she is determined to make “future female leaders” out of girls from across the country.

The pop singer attended yesterday’s brick-laying ceremony for the school and promised to continue her work in other countries if the project is a success.

She said, “I realized how much children deserve to be educated and so, for me, the best thing I could do was to build a school, a unique school that will create future female leaders, scientists, lawyers, doctors and if this school is successful it will be used as a model to replicate it in other countries.”

During the visit, Madonna will take her two youngest children to meet their biological families and will spend time learning the local language and teaching them about where they came from.

Michael Jackson Needed to Eat

michael-jackson1
Michael Jackson’s choreographer doesn’t believe the singer ate enough.

Kenny Ortega, who choreographed Michael’s 50 sold-out London comeback shows, has revealed he tried to make the late pop star eat more during rehearsals.

He said, “I wished he would have eaten more. I was always making sure there was plenty of food around. I would unwrap his plate and slide it over in front of him. But I didn’t feed him.”

However, Kenny denies Michael – who was taking several different prescription drugs at the time of his death in June, and was ruled to have passed away from acute Propofol intoxication – was too frail to mount a comeback on such a huge scale.

Kenny told a British newspaper, “Look at photographs of Fred Astaire at the height of his career. They’re the spitting image.”

Kenny, who also choreographed Michael’s ‘Dangerous’ and ‘HiStory’ tours in the 90s, is adamant he never saw any evidence of Michael taking drugs while he worked with him.

He added, “I’d been to his home. I’d seen him playing with his children, and never saw any evidence ever of anything like that.”

‘This Is It’, the documentary film pieced together from rehearsal footage of Michael and his dancers, is being released worldwide this week.
