Beyonce Is Pregnant

There seems to be rumors about Beyonce getting pregnant every couple of weeks so either the baby is lazy as hell or they are all bullshit. Anyway here is another one, this time it’s Us Weekly reporting that Beyonce and Jay-Z are expecting their first child. A source says…

“B was shocked. She loves kids, but she wasn’t ready to be a mother just yet, she really wanted to get her album done and tour the world again. This is a gift from God and she’s so happy.”

Beyonce’s sister, Solange Knowles, kind of confirmed the news by saying “she’s got the most beautiful heart, she’ll be a great mom.”

For some reason I think this time it might be true that she is pregnant, her fans will be going crazy because they expected a tour and new album this year.

20 Of The Craziest VMA Outfits

The 2010 MTV Video Music Awards take place this Sunday so Billboard decided to go down memory lane and take a look at some of the craziest VMA outifts.

20. Lil Mama looks more like child than mother at the VMAs in 2009.

19. At least Rodman rocked the red AIDS ribbon on his train wreck of a look in 1995.

18. Let’s hope Missy Elliot, pictured here in at the 2003 VMAs, didn’t use her MTV Moon Man to tee off.

17. Katy Perry was a “teenage dream” with her vintage Barbie look at the 2008 VMAs.

16. Slipknot looked slightly respectable in their suits and ties at the VMAs in 2008.

15. Before Gwen Stefani was a fashionista, she was “just a girl” in ’98 — who had blue hair and futuristic skirts.

14. Fergie‘s hat is reminiscent of “A Clockwork Orange,” but the rest of the outfit screams saucy schoolgirl at the 2006 VMAs.

13. Lenny Kravitz‘s 1998 single “Fly Away” wasn’t joking, but the rocker didn’t prove it until six years later at the VMAs.

12. How could Shakira even sit down in those skin-tight leather pants is the outrageous part of her outfit at the 2001 VMAs.

11. Jack Black is a not-so-”smooth criminal” at the 2003 VMAs, ripping off Michael Jackson’s look with more humor than style.

10. Destiny’s Child channels a Native American vibe at the VMAs in 2001. It’s more Dances With Beyonce than “Dances With Wolves.”

09. Pink — at her most, well, pink — rocks leopard and gold for a wild child look at the 2000 VMAs.

08. His eyebrows might be the most surprising part of Axl Rose‘s sporty look at the 2001 VMAs.

07. Lil Kim was as brave as they come in 1999, letting it all hang out.

06. Big Boi and André 3000 of Outkast somehow make furry pants and orange overalls look good at the 2001 VMAs.

05. Schoolgirl no more. Britney Spears debuted her biker side at the 2002 VMAs.

04. For once, Mudvayne‘s brightly-colored mohawks were not the most eye-catching part of the band’s appearance, pictured here in 2001.

03. Christina Aguilera definitely needed double-sided tape in order to avoid a “wardrobe malfunction” at the 2002 VMAs.

02. For once, Marilyn Manson, pictured here in 1998 with then-girlfriend Rose McGowan, is not the center of attention.

01. Lady Gaga showed off her many, many sides at the 2009 VMAs.

How the hell is GaGa number 1? Rose McGowan was practically nude and Mudvayne have bullet holes in their head – either of them should have been number 1. To see the full 50 craziest VMA outfits head over to the source.

Lady GaGa Buys Beyonce A Diamond Whip

What do you get for a popstar that has everything in the world? A custom-made diamond whip with matching bra and panties to go with it, well this is apparently what Lady GaGa got Beyonce for her birthday.

GaGa presented Beyonce with the gifts, that cost a few thousand of dollars, while they were both backstage at a Jay-Z concert in Detroit last week. A friend said…

“Gaga wanted to give her something special. The whip was made out of hundreds of diamonds and leather. When Beyonce received it she squealed with excitement. The dressing room was decorated with balloons and banners and a lot of champagne had been put on too.”

For some reason I can’t see Beyonce actually using these things, I have a feeling she would be very vanilla in the bedroom. Then again, it’s always the quiet ones that are wild in the sack.

Forbes’ 12 Best-Paid Celebrities Under 30

Forbes have come up with this year best paid celebrities who are under the age of 30 and it seems that it was a good year to be a pop princess because the whole top 5 is female popstars.

1. Beyoncé Knowles, $87 million

One half of the most famous couple in hip-hop, Beyoncé continues to expand her business empire beyond music. Endorsement deals with companies ranging from Nintendo to L’Oreal and her growing House of Dereon fashion line bring in millions of dollars per year. And that’s on top of the $86 million she grossed from a 93-stop world tour.

2. Britney Spears, $64 million

Not long ago, much of the world had written Britney Spears off as a celebrity flameout. But over the last year Spears logged the fifth highest-grossing tour in the world, bringing in $130 million in gross box office receipts by playing 98 dates. High-profile deals with Elizabeth Arden perfumes and Candies, which includes her own fashion line, prove that the public expects Spears to stay in the spotlight for good.

3. Lady GaGa, $62 million

A newcomer to the Forbes’ Celebrity 100 list of the world’s most powerful celebrities, Lady Gaga broke down the door to fame with outlandish outfits and quirky videos, including one that featured her and Beyoncé poisoning an unappreciative boyfriend. Bringing in an estimated $31 million with a 106-date tour that grossed $95 million, Lady Gaga is also a marketer’s dream, teaming up with Polaroid, Virgin Mobile, Monster Cable and Viva Glam.

4. Miley Cyrus, $48 million

The teen star behind Disney’s lucrative Hannah Montana franchise has now matured into a serious entertainment draw, averaging a nightly gross box office of $1.2 million across 57 tour dates. A starring role in the movie The Last Song, heavy radio play for her hit “Party in the U.S.A.” and her cut from all of those Disney shirts with her face on them add up to a large bump over her earnings from last year.

5. Taylor Swift, $45 million

The most-played artist on the radio in 2009, Swift’s 100 live dates during the last 12 months grossed $54 million. She’s one of the few artists who can still convince millions of fans to legally buy music–her Fearless album topped the 2009 sales charts, moving 3.2 million units, while fans downloaded another 12 million tracks from iTunes and Amazon. Large endorsement deals with Sony and CoverGirl helped her bottom line, too.

6 (tie). LeBron James, $43 million

LeBron James snagged his second straight MVP award this year as the NBA’s top player, yet his Cleveland Cavaliers team was bounced from the playoffs by the Boston Celtics. James earned $15.8 million from the Cavs and almost twice that through endorsements. His biggest deal is with Nike, and he signed an extension this year that pays more than $10 million per year. James added McDonald’s to his endorsement portfolio in January in a deal worth an estimated $4 million annually. His new contract with the Miami Heat will be factored into next year’s total.

6 (tie). Roger Federer, $43 million

It was a year to remember for Roger Federer as he reached the finals of all four Grand Slam tourneys in 2009 and captured the titles at the French Open (which completed his career Grand Slam) and Wimbledon (which gave him the record for most Grand Slam titles ever at 15). Federer has amassed the most impressive endorsement portfolio in sports, including Credit Suisse, Gillette, Mercedes-Benz, Nike, Rolex and Wilson, among others. He has earned a record $56 million in career prize money.

8. Eli Manning, $40 million

His six-year, $97 million contract signed in August made the New York Giants quarterback the highest-paid player in the NFL. Off the field, the younger Manning brother cashes in on a slew of endorsement deals with companies like Samsung, Reebok, Toyota and Gatorade.

9. Terrell Suggs, $38 million

The Ravens star signed a six-year, $63 million contract last year that made him highest-paid linebacker in NFL. His follow-up: a disappointing season complete with a severe MCL sprain, the result of an illegal block by Browns quarterback Brady Quinn.

10. Cristiano Ronaldo, $36 million

Last June Real Madrid paid a record $132 million transfer fee to Manchester United for the rights to Ronaldo. The 2008 FIFA Player of the Year did not get a cut of the transfer money, but he was rewarded with a six-year deal worth $18 million annually. Ronaldo is challenging David Beckham as the most marketable player in soccer. His biggest deal is with Nike, which pays him $8 million annually.

11. The Jonas Brothers, $35.5 million

Though they stepped into the limelight as part of a Disney show, the Jonas Brothers ache to be taken seriously as musicians. They launched a world tour that grossed $95 million, including $30 million overseas, while playing to an average audience of 14,000 fans a night. Another sign of maturity: Nick Jonas released a record this year with a side project called Nick Jonas and the Administration.

12. Philip Rivers, $32 million

A year ago in August Rivers signed a six-year, $92 million contract with the Chargers. Similarly impressive: Only Steve Young has a higher career passing rating among quarterbacks with at least 1,500 attempts.

On the day that I checked my bank account and seen I barely have enough to pay rent, this is not the day I wanted to see how much these celebrities are making. But good for them, I guess.

13 Of The Bitchiest Celebrity Quotes

We all love a good celebrity feud, especially when they are so open about their feelings, so AOL have come up with some of the bitchiest celebrity quotes of all time.

13. Lily Allen on Cheryl Cole:
“Taking your clothes off, doing sexy dancing and marrying a rich footballer must be very gratifying, your mother must be so proud, stupid b*tch”

Shutting Lily Allen up is not easy, as Cheryl Cole found out after she crossed paths with the mouthy singer (see below to see the quote that got Lily fired up). In retaliation, Lily posted this famous quote on her blog. The atmosphere between the pair is still icy, with Cheryl reportedly threatening to walk from The X Factor if Lily goes anywhere near the show. Bitch rating 6/10

12. Whitney Houston on Madonna:
“She’s the high priestess of tack”

Whitney and Madonna have never quite seen eye to eye. Back in the day when Whitney sold as many records as Madonna and could actually still sing, she made this comment about Madonna’s sexual image. She also said she would disown her children if they grew up to be anything like Madge. Let’s hope Whitney’s daughter Bobbi Christina doesn’t own any crucifixes or lacy gloves then. Bitch rating 6/10

11. Sharon Osbourne on Dannii Minogue:
“She’s as dim as a bulb in a power cut… f***ing useless”

The X Factor is a breeding ground for bitching, especially when Sharon Osbourne’s involved. Somewhat miffed by having to sit next to the younger and prettier Dannii on the show’s judging panel, Sharon made this comment on Kylie’s sister after she quit the show. She also called Dannii an “annoying mosquito that you want to flick away”. Bitch rating 7/10

10. Sharon Osbourne on Nicole Kidman:
“Her forehead looks like a f***ing flatscreen TV”

Ah, Sharon Osbourne again. You can always rely on Sharon for a juicy bitchfest. She made this quote in response to Moulin Rouge star Nicole Kidman’s claim that she hadn’t been under the surgeon’s knife. We’re actually with Sharon on this one. Bitch rating 7/10

9. Donald Trump on Rosie O’Donnell:
“A fat pig. A degenerate. Unattractive.”

It’s not only women who bitch about each other. One of the most entertaining feuds in America is this one between two of the country’s highest-profile TV stars, Donald Trump and Rosie O’Donnell. It all started when Rosie criticised the Miss USA contest which Donald owns the rights to. Mr Trump responded with the delightful comment above. Charming. Bitch rating 8/10

8. Victoria Beckham singing to Katie Price:
“Who let the dogs out!”

Another famous celebrity feud is the one between Victoria Beckham and Katie Price. This one began when Katie was dating Manchester United footballer Dwight Yorke and turned up at the club’s ground to be greeted by the sound of Victoria singing the Baha Men song ‘Who Let The Dogs Out’ at her. Tensions between the pair have been icy ever since, with Price calling Posh talentless and Vicky blanking Katie at an Elton John charity bash. Bitch rating: 8/10

7. Naomi Campbell to Tyra Banks:
“You’ll never be me. Don’t ever think you’ll be me”

The feud between Naomi and Tyra is the stuff of fashion legend. Tyra claims it was partly Naomi that forced her to quit the modelling industry for good. Banks claims queen bitch Campbell made this comment backstage at a fashion show in Milan, although during a rare TV interview together where Tyra squeezed a not-very-convincing apology out of Naomi, Miss Campbell denied she had ever said it. Bitch rating 8/10

6. Cheryl Cole on Lily Allen:
“Everyone wants to look like her? Chick with a dick”

Cheryl Cole and Lily Allen have exchanged so many unpleasantries that you could fill a book with them. This is the one that got Lily so irate that she responded with the quote above. It all started when Lily called Cheryl’s Girls Aloud bandmate Nicola Roberts ‘the ugly one’, to which Cheryl retaliated with this corker of a quote. Bitch rating 9/10

5. Christina Aguilera on Lady Gaga:
“I’m not quite sure who this person is, to be honest. I don’t know if it is a man or a woman”

Back when Lady GaGa was but a mere newcomer on the music scene she was accused of copying Christina Aguilera, not the other way round as is the case now. When asked what she thought of Gaga stealing her style, Christina chipped in with the hilarious quote above. When told who Gaga was, she added: “Oh, the newcomer? I think she’s really fun to look at”. Meeooowww! Bitch rating 9/10

4. Lindsay Lohan on Keira Knightley:
“That flat-chested cardboard cut-out”

Far be it from the acting illuminai that is La Lohan to criticise any other actresses, but it seems that’s exactly what she did when she made this comment about Oscar-nominated Keira. And Lindsay didn’t stop there, she also called Sienna Miller “a no-talent crackhead”, and allegedly scrawled graffiti saying Scarlett Johansson was “fat and ugly” on a toilet wall in a bar in New York. She needs locking up! Bitch rating: 9/10

3. Joan Collins on Linda Evans:
“It’s quite off putting to have to look at that face”

The legendary Dynasty bitch fights between Alexis and Crystle weren’t just for the TV cameras. Behind the scenes, actresses Joan Collins and Linda Evans hated each other just as much as their alter-egos did. When the pair reunited for the play Legends in 2006, Joan went on record with this fabulously bitchy quote about her co-star’s penchant for cosmetic surgery: “Linda arrives at first rehearsal with cosmetic surgery tape over and under her eyelids and underneath her chin. She also has the weirdest collagen enhanced lips I’ve ever seen. They make her look like a gargoyle when she smiles”. Bitch rating: 10/10

2. Sharon Osbourne on Susan Boyle:
“She’s been hit with the ugly stick. You just want to say God bless and here’s a Gillette razor”

Osbourne matriarch Sharon makes her third appearance on our list for this shocker of a quote made on live radio in the US. Asked about Britain’s Got Talent singing sensation Susan Boyle, Sharon’s mouth ran away with her and before long the quote had rippled across the Atlantic. America’s Got Talent judge Sharon was sure to have got a rap on the knuckles from her boss Simon Cowell, and she has since made a public apology to Subo. Bitch rating: 10/10

1. Etta James on Beyonce:
“I tell you that woman he had singing for him, singing my song, she gonna get her ass whupped. I can’t stand Beyonce”

Soul legend Etta James was far from amused when Beyonce was invited to sing her song At Last at Barack Obama’s inauguration ceremony in 2009. The singer, who Beyonce had also portrayed in the film Cadillac Records much to James’ disgust, piped up: “She had no business singing my song that I’ve been singing forever.” Bitch rating 10/10

I love that Sharon Osbourne is on this list so much, that’s why I love her.

Forbes’ 100 Most Powerful & Highest-Earning Celebrities 2010

Forbes have released their annual 100 of the most powerful and highest earning celebrities in the world, when compiling the list they looked at how much the celebrities earned and how much star power they have based on media exposure. The list is based from June 2009-June 2010. Here’s the top 15, the full list is after the jump below:

#1 Oprah Winfrey ($315), 2009 Rank: 2

News that this coming season of The Oprah Winfrey Show will be her last helped the self-made billionaire garner more media attention than any other member of the Celebrity 100. Her Harpo production company, which spawned the careers of Dr. Phil, Rachel Ray and Dr. Oz, will introduce interior designer Nate Berkus this fall. Months later, the list’s top-earner will add the lifestyle-themed Oprah Winfrey Network in partnership with Discovery Communications to her media empire.

#2 Beyoncé Knowles ($87), 2009 Rank: 4

One half of the most famous couple in hip-hop, Beyoncé continues to expand her business empire beyond music. Endorsement deals with companies ranging from Nintendo to L’Oreal and her growing House of Dereon fashion line bring in millions of dollars per year on top of the $86 million she grossed from a 93-stop world tour.

#3 James Cameron ($210), 2009 Rank: No Rank

As the director of the highest grossing film of all time, Cameron is definitely “king of the world.” Avatar has earned $2.7 billion at the box office alone and has changed the way Hollywood makes films. In the near future almost every studio blockbuster will be released in 3-D. Cameron is already at work on Avatar 2.

#4 Lady Gaga ($62), 2009 Rank: No Rank

A newcomer to the Celebrity 100, Lady Gaga broke down the door to fame with outlandish outfits and quirky videos, including one that featured her and Beyoncé poisoning an unappreciative boyfriend. Bringing in an estimated $31 million with a 106-date tour that grossed $95 million, Lady Gaga is also a marketer’s dream, teaming up with Polaroid, Virgin Mobile, Monster Cable and Viva Glam.

#5 Tiger Woods ($105), 2009 Rank: 5

Tiger Woods’ fall from global sports icon to tabloid fodder was stunning. He saw Accenture, AT&T and Pepsi drop him as a pitchman, but he remains the highest-paid athlete in the world thanks to huge deals with Nike, Electronic Arts and Upper Deck. Nike built a $650 million (sales) golf business from scratch on Woods’ back. His fledgling golf course design business has been hurt by the economic downturn, as all three courses he’s worked on have experienced major delays.

#6 Britney Spears ($64), 2009 Rank: 13

Not long ago, most of the entertainment world had written Britney Spears off as a celebrity flameout. But over the last year Spears logged the fifth highest-grossing tour in the world, bringing in $130 million in gross box office receipts by playing 98 dates. High-profile endorsement deals with Elizabeth Arden and Candies’ prove that the public expects Spears to stay in the spotlight for good.

#7 U2 ($130), 2009 Rank: No Rank

The world’s biggest rock band, U2 launched a massive world tour in 2009 that has brought in more than $311 million in gross box office receipts. Each tour stop brings in $10 million in gross ticket sales. Add in lucrative merchandise sales, heavy radio play and a steady-selling back catalog, and you have the highest-earning band on the planet.

#8 Sandra Bullock ($56), 2009 Rank: 92

With two hit movies (The Proposal and The Blind Side) and an Oscar win, Bullock should have been sitting on top of the world. She is financially. With $56 million she’s the highest-earning actress. But a messy breakup with cheating husband Jesse James turned her into tabloid fodder. Bullock overcame adversity with news of an adoption and a public return at the MTV Movie Awards.

#9 Johnny Depp ($75), 2009 Rank: No Rank

Depp zooms close to the top of our list this year thanks to his work as the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton’s 3-D update of Alice in Wonderland. The Disney film has grossed $1 billion at the worldwide box office, making Depp the only actor to headline two $1 billion films. Depp also landed a big upfront payday for The Tourist. Costarring Angelina Jolie, the film is a rare case these days of two big stars getting big bucks.

#10 Madonna ($58), 2009 Rank: 3

The Material Girl isn’t quite ready to cede her spot in pop music’s hierarchy to Lady Gaga or Britney Spears just yet. The 52-year-old singer had the fourth highest-grossing tour of 2009, bringing in $6 million a night and $138 million overall. An episode of the Fox hit sitcom Glee, which featured cast members singing several of her songs, added to her already high profile and cushioned her significant earnings from publishing royalties.

#11 Simon Cowell ($80), 2009 Rank: 25

Cowell made perhaps the biggest decision of his life this year when he ended his Idol run in favor of producing his own talent show, The X Factor, in America. Cowell, who also produces America’s Got Talent, says The X Factor format is his favorite. It won’t compete against Idol.

#12 Taylor Swift ($45), 2009 Rank: 69

The most-played artist on the radio in 2009, Swift’s 100 live dates during the last 12 months grossed $54 million. She’s one of the few artists who can still convince millions of fans to legally buy music–her Fearless album topped the 2009 sales charts, moving 3.2 million units, while fans downloaded another 12 million tracks from iTunes and Amazon. Large endorsement deals with Sony and CoverGirl helped her bottom line, too.

#13 Miley Cyrus ($48), 2009 Rank: 29

The teen star behind Disney’s lucrative Hannah Montana franchise has now matured into a serious entertainment draw, averaging a nightly gross box office of $1.2 million across 57 tour dates. A starring role in the movie The Last Song, heavy radio play for her hit “Party in the U.S.A.” and her cut from all of those Disney shirts with her face on them add up to a large bump over her earnings from last year.

#14 Kobe Bryant ($48), 2009 Rank: 10

Kobe Bryant signed a three-year, $83.5 million extension in April with the Los Angeles Lakers that will make him the highest-paid player in the NBA. He will be only the second player in NBA history with a $30 million salary (Michael Jordan in the late ’90s was the first). His salary this past year was $23 million. Bryant led the Lakers to their fifth title since 2000. Everybody likes a winner: Bryant’s jersey is the NBA’s top seller in the U.S., China and Europe.

#15 Jay-Z ($63), 2009 Rank: 32

Jay-Z likes to say he’s not a businessman; he’s a business, man–and it’s not idle boasting. The rapper-turned-mogul retains his crown as hip-hop’s cash king thanks to a new album and investments in the 40/40 nightclub chain, the Broadway show “Fela!” and the New Jersey Nets basketball team. Jay-Z’s biggest boost comes from his Blueprint 3 tour, which grossed over $1 million per concert this year. He still makes less than wife Beyoncé.

There’s some surprises on the list but for me I fully expected Oprah Winfrey to be back on top, I just didn’t think Angelina Jolie would fall from being on top last year down 17 spots this year.

Beyonce and Jay-Z took her nephew away for vacation to Hawaii so naturally that meant a trip to the beach for them, what I’m guessing wasn’t on the cards is a nipple slip.

They were all building sandcastles on the beach, but we don’t care for those photos do we? When her nipple popped out of her swimsuit to say hello to the world.

Surprisingly though Beyonce didn’t try run away like I thought she would, she seems kind of prudish when it comes to nudity, instead she just laughed it off.

Normal Jobs Celebrities Had Before Making It Big

Not all celebrities had an easy life and just grew up with money or famous parents, here is a list of some of them who worked normal jobs just like us normal folk:

Megan Fox

It seems almost sinful to cover up her gorgeous figure, but Megan Fox used to wear a banana suit when she worked for a smoothie shop. That’s right. She dressed up as a banana. We wonder if she can stand to eat the fruit anymore?

Madonna

It’s hard to imagine Madge as anything other than an all-singing, all-dancing, all-controversial superstar, but she once worked at Dunkin’ Donuts. Looking at her physique now, we can assume she hasn’t revisted her old workplace for a very long time…

Brad Pitt

Brad’s pre-fame job might be our favourite: the hunky actor used to dress up as a giant chicken to promote a restaurant to earn cash. Thankfully he soon realised he’d have a better career when not dressed up as poultry.

Johnny Depp

We’d buy anything if Johnny tried to sell it to us, so he’d probably be a retail manager’s dream. But before he became famous for his superb acting, floppy hair and chiselled cheekbones, he sold pens over the phone. Thankfully, he landed a part in the 80s horror movie “Nightmare On Elm Street” soon after, and the rest is Hollywood history.

Beyonce

She has one of the best hairstyles in Celeb-land, but did you know Beyoncé used to sweep up hair too? Before the days of international superstardom and her Sasha Fierce alter ego, Beyoncé would sweep other peoples’ locks off the floor of her mum’s beauty salon. (insert hair joke here)

Simon Cowell

He’s one of the most judgmental people in the industry, so it’s quite a treat to learn he started his career working in a humble post room at EMI. The Cowell is living proof that the post boy CAN become an internationally famous, mega-rich music mogul.

Eve Mendes

If you ever see Eva Mendes looking in horror at a hotdog, it’s probably because she used to spend her days working at the popular American fast-food joint Hot Dog On A Stick. We’d love to see a picture of her wearing the ghastly blue and yellow uniform, even though she’d no doubt still look drop-dead gorgeous in it.

Ashton Kutcher

The “Punk’d” star had to make ends meet while studying at college by sweeping up cereal off the floor at a General Mills factory and, when times got really hard, he even sold his blood. It’s safe to say, with a successful acting career under his belt and hotter than hot wife Demi Moore on his arm, he won’t ever have to sweep up old cereal ever again. And he’ll probably get to keep his blood too.

Rod Stewert

He might have one of the most successful music careers ever, but before Rod achieved international fame as a crooner, he had a slightly spooky profession: digging graves. If digging holes in the ground can aid you on your path to superstardom, however, hand over the spade!

Orlando Bloom

Brit actor Orlando Bloom used to be a clay trapper. It sounds strange, doesn’t it? However, it’s not a weird and wonderful occupation that would be more suited in Middle Earth, but rather a simple job to aid those who enjoy clay pigeon shooting. “You’d have these gentlemen who’d go shooting and I’d pull back the arm on a clay trap machine,” he explains.

Pink

We’d love to walk into a McDonald’s restaurant and see Pink working there. In fact, if we went into one several years ago, we might have done. Before she hit the big time back in 2000, she had no shame in serving up Big Macs and and french fries to fast-food lovers. She also had the lovely job of cleaning the loos. Nice!

Cheryl Cole

Our Cheryl is a million miles away from her former life. Before she appeared on the UK TV show “Popstars: The Rivals” and landed the job as one-fifth of Girls Aloud, she was working as a waitress in a restaurant. It’s safe to say she’ll probably never have to wait tables ever again, unless she ever decides to go on “Celebrity Come Dine With Me.”
