Celebrities Who Lost Their Virginity at Early Age

The “first time” is hardly ever the best time, but it is always a milestone. Often, this information is a closely guarded secret shared between select friends and lovers, but we’re dealing with celebrities here!

[Click thumbnails for a larger view]

Angelina Jolie says that she has been a horn dog for a long time, and even recalls making out with boys in nursery school. She lost her virginity at 14 to her first BF, but her lover must not have been very satisfying because after the deed, she began cutting him with a knife. We hope Brad is good in the sack cuz we kinda like having him around.

In Kate Moss: Model of Imperfection, an unauthorized biography, author Katherine Kendall dishes on Kate Moss’ sexcapades. Kendall claims that Moss got hot n’ heavy for the first time in the Bahamas when she was just 14. Kate supposedly went over the book carefully and planned to sue if any details weren’t true, but this little factoid stayed.

When he was 26, nasty pants Randy Spelling (he’s Tori’s loser brother) took 15-year-old Paris Hilton’s virginity. Dude, she wasn’t even legal.

Sienna Miller gave it up to her first “serious” BF when she was 16. Her mom insisted that they get it on in the house because she didn’t want little Sienna doin’ it outside. Ooookay, we hope her mom at least left the house while the couple had their, er, moment.

Daniel Radcliffe began working his magic in the bedroom at 16. So who was the lucky lady? Well, we don’t know exactly. But she was quite a bit older than him. Daniel said the age difference “wasn’t ridiculous but it would freak some people out.”

Matthew McConaughey admits that he lost his virginity when he was 15, but he won’t dish on the details. When US Weekly asked him about his first bedroom adventure he said, “None of your business.” C’mon, Matthew. It’s “None of your beeswax.”

Badass sexpot Johnny Depp used to play guitar in a rock band called The Flame. Well, things got hot as a flame when, at 13, Depp lost his virginity to a groupie in the back of the band’s van. This seems a bit young. But I guess we would have done the same if presented with Johnny’s johnny.

In a book called Where Do Nudists Keep Their Hankies? the author claims that Sean Connery began getting it on at the ridiculously young age of 8. Sean says, “I was 8, but I can’t recall with whom.” For some reason, we think he’s lying. Who forgets their first time?

Britney Spears’ virginity has been hotly debated but in her mom’s book, Through the Storm, Lynn Spears capitalizes on her daughter’s fame and dishes all the dirt. She says her daughter did NOT lose her v-card to Justin Timberlake, like everyone thought. Instead, she gave it up to a high school football jock when she was 14. How do you like that Justin? Cry me a river…

Ozzy Osbourne (not pictured) may be crazy and old now, but he was hot stuff when he was younger. He was doin’ it by the time he was 14. Papa obvs doesn’t preach because his daughter, Kelly, ended up losin’ it at 16. Their v-cards aren’t the only thing the Osbournes have trouble holding on to. Their sanity seems to be slipping away too.

Angelina Jolie Tops Sex Pass List

Angelina Jolie didn’t win any awards for her role in Changeling but at least she is still winning stuff on sex lists right?

According to a new poll by online dating websites Date.com, Matchmaker.com and Amor.com people were asked which celebrity would they give their partner a sex pass to sleep with.

The usual people are included on the list like Angelina, Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry, Johnny Depp, George Clooney and Brad Pitt.

Shira Zwebner, who works for Date.com said “this poll is the complete opposite of an indecent proposal. In fact, most men and women wouldn’t just grant their significant others permission to go for it with their celebrity of choice - they’d brag about it all over town, Johnny Depp’s appeal is more than just physical attraction, he is the complete package, and women envision that one night of passion with this Pirate will leave them more than just sexually satisfied. Angelina Jolie, meanwhile, tops this list because both men and women worldwide have crushes on her and - if she ever invited someone other than Brad Pitt into her bed - not even the most committed couple would walk away from that opportunity.”

Here is the list of women that men could sleep with:

Angelina Jolie 25.9%
Jennifer Aniston 24.1%
Halle Berry 23.8%
Penelope Cruz 22.4%
Eva Mendes 20.7%
Nicole Kidman 20.7%
Sandra Bullock 19.0%
Jennifer Garner 18.9%
Lucy Liu 17.2%
Reese Witherspoon 17.2%
Demi Moore 16.7%
Julia Roberts 15.5%
Kate Winslet 15.3%
Kiera Knightly 12.1%
Scarlett Johansson 11.8%
Natalie Portman 8.6%
Katherine Hiegl 6.9%

As for who the women can sleep with:

Johnny Depp 32.2%
George Clooney 29.0%
Will Smith 28.4%
Brad Pitt 25.8%
Matthew McConaughey 25.8%
Hugh Jackman 19.4%
Sean Connery 16.1%
Patrick Dempsey 12.9%
Tom Cruise 12.9%
Justin Timberlake 11.5%
Bruce Willis 9.7%
Howard Stern 8.4%
Robert Pattinson 6.5%
Jake Gyllenhaal 6.5%
Gerard Butler 3.2%

Top Hollywood Pay: Men Versus Women

What will it take for A-list actresses to earn as much as actors?

The ninth-highest grossing movie of the year so far — with $153 million in U.S. box office sales — is “Sex and the City,” a film that features four leading women and a cursory supporting role for Mr. Big. The 11th highest grossing film is “Mamma Mia,” another estrogen fest, which has earned $144 million.

So with female-centric movies performing so well at the box office (between them, the two films have earned $980 million worldwide), why are women still earning so much less than their male counterparts?

Only two women make the list of the top 10 earning actors in Hollywood between June 2007 and June 2008. Cameron Diaz comes in fifth with $50 million for her work in solid romantic comedies like “What Happens in Vegas” and “The Holiday.” She also earned big for her voice work in the “Shrek” films as the far-from-helpless Princess Fiona.

But she earned a full $30 million less than Hollywood’s highest earner, Will Smith, who cashes mega paychecks for films like the post-apocalyptic “I Am Legend.” In the same time period, Smith earned $80 million.

Hollywood’s top earners

Will Smith — $80 million:
Smith earns big bucks for his action hero roles in films like Hancock and I Am Legend. But he’s also looking out for an Oscar. He was nominated for his work in Ali and The Pursuit of Happyness.

Johnny Depp — $72 million:
Depp rakes it in with his bizarre turn as drunken Captain Jack Sparrow in Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean movies. Rumors are now swirling that he’ll earn $56 million upfront for a fourth installment.

Eddie Murphy — $55 million:
The reclusive comedian may have bombed with his most recent film, Meet Dave, but his overall track record for family-friendly fare is good enough for studios to keep producing his movies.

Mike Myers — $55 million:
His Shrek movies appeal to both kids and grown-ups, but his live-action films are a tougher sell. His summer movie The Love Guru earned a paltry $41 million worldwide.

Cameron Diaz — $50 million:
The top-earning woman on our list, Diaz turns out solid performances in romantic comedies like this year’s What Happens in Vegas. But she still earned $30 million less than top-earning actor Will Smith last year.

Leonardo DiCaprio — $45 million:
DiCaprio is the rare actor who can bring in large audiences for adult fare like Blood Diamond and The Aviator. He’s been nominated for three Oscars but has yet to win.

Bruce Willis — $41 million:
His action star days are mostly behind him, but Willis still managed to fill seats with his fourth turn as John McClane in last year’s Live Free or Die Hard.

Ben Stiller — $40 million:
Stiller’s Night at the Museum was a monster hit earning $575 million at the worldwide box office. No surprise that a sequel is in the works for next year.

Nicolas Cage — $38 million:
Cage’s films can be hit or miss but he still earns big paychecks. They pay off when a movie like National Treasure: Book of Secrets earns $457 million worldwide.

Keira Knightley — $32 million:
The second woman on our list, Knightley earns out from her role in the Pirate movies as Elizabeth Swan. When not appearing in the blockbusters, she sticks to more serious films like last year’s Atonement.

Are These Your Favorite Stars?

Parade magazine have come up with a list of 10 actors, who they believe are America’s Favorite Stars, the list features the usual people you would expect:

#1 Will Smith
Will Smith seems to glide from success to success without much effort. He’s a big presence. When he walks into a room, you know he’s there. In addition to hits like Ali, Men in Black, and Hancock, he cares about family and affecting the future.

Committed to the charity Malaria No More, he has traveled to Africa with his family to witness the devastation the disease can cause. “I think a large part of why I’ve been successful is that I have, essentially, a white-collar career with a blue-collar mentality,” he says. “I can never really relax. I’m always waiting to see what’s next. It’s always, ‘OK, something different is gonna happen here.’”

Next month he stars in the drama Seven Pounds. “I believe that the guy who works the hardest generally wins,” Will says. “ Nelson Mandela once told me that when he was in prison, he was able to watch one American film every six months. He said our films are about hope and what the world should be. He told me to keep doing exactly what I’m doing, because there’s a struggle somewhere that I’m helping. I got really inspired by that.”

#2 Tom Hanks
Tom Hanks is so likable, we’d follow him to the moon. In fact, we already did in Apollo 13. Forrest Gump, Philadelphia, Saving Private Ryan, and Big are other Hanks movies you watch over and over on DVD. “To me, this isn’t work—to go off and pretend to be somebody else,” he says.

“I couldn’t believe when they paid me $285 a week to act, much less the raises I’ve received since. I shouldn’t be called the nicest guy in Hollywood. I should be called the luckiest guy, because I still can’t believe it.”

#3 Reese Witherspoon
Some people bully their way to success. Reese Witherspoon rose to the top with “please” and “thank you,” the hint of a Southern drawl, and a winning smile. Legally Blonde put her on the map; Walk the Line won her an Oscar.

Now she’s a mom of two and a successful producer. “I try to be that person who can look in the mirror and be OK with myself,” she says. “I feel a certain responsibility to represent women who pay the bills, take care of the children, and try to have a fulfilling life themselves. I constantly feel like I’m striving to do better.”

#4 George Clooney
Clooney can kid about himself better than anybody. He’ll joke about turning Dr. Ross on ER into everybody’s fantasy guy. He’ll joke about wearing the Batsuit. But he does take some things very seriously. He’s passionately committed to bringing attention to the tragedy in Darfur. He’s determined to make worthy films like Good Night, and Good Luck and Syriana, as well as blockbusters.

Says Clooney: “My father has always inspired me. He said, ‘Don’t wake up at 65 and think about what you should have done.’ The great lesson is that you get a sort of credit card for being famous, and I’ve thought a lot about spending it in the right instances, for people and causes I can help.”

#5 Meryl Streep
She has an uncanny ability to transform herself into every character she plays, from a tragic heroine in Sophie’s Choice to the silly star of Mamma Mia! And she always seems to be enjoying herself—and embracing life. “Anybody who picks acting as a profession is bathed in insecurity,” she says.

“Even when you’re young, you think you’re not beautiful enough or you’ll never work again or ‘ I don’t know what I’m doing.’ I’ve had those feelings. People gave me a lot of confidence early on and encouragement to keep going. Each project I take is different—it intrigues me or makes me angry or tickles me in a new way.”

#6 Brad Pitt
Brad’s striking looks and love life make headlines, but he’s also a good guy, more down-to-earth than seems possible. He picks challenging movie roles like Babel or Fight Club. Next: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

“You need a game plan,” he says. “You either succeed because people want you to or you stay around because you make them let you. I try to stay dedicated to my work. If I were to dwell on any of the fame and celebrity stuff, I’d make decisions for the wrong reasons. I look at my kids and realize that they will inherit this world. So, if you’re going to throw your weight around, use it to make the world a little bit better.”

#7 Julia Roberts
The star of Pretty Woman has a megawatt smile that still works its charm. Onscreen, she can be one of the guys (see her with Clooney and Pitt in the Ocean’s movies) or a sassy fighter (Erin Brockovich). Offscreen, she’s a mom who took time off to raise her babies.

“Mustering up enough self-esteem to say, ‘I want to be an actor,’ was a big turning point,” she says. “I also said, ‘I can’t wait to be a mom.’ No five-year plan for me—I’m on the five-minute plan. I enjoy my life. You can’t be joyfully participating in the day if you’re thinking too much down the road.”

#8 Johnny Depp
What a grand joke that Johnny Depp—the handsome rebel of Edward Scissorhands and Sweeney Todd—is now known for his riotous, rum-soaked (and moneymaking) Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean.

The dad of two says: “My kids opened my eyes. I feel as though some great fog was lifted. Now I do what I want, without compromise, and try to maintain dignity and integrity. People like to think I’m a brooding, angry, rebellious guy. I’m not any of that. I’m not trying to be anything other than what I am.”

#9 Jennifer Aniston
Aniston has a way with a comic line that makes America want to hug her, take care of her—and look just like her. We’ll always think of her as Rachel, the favorite pal on Friends. Jennifer often is called today’s Mary Tyler Moore, because she shares the same endearing style.

“I was always the class clown with a lot of ideas,” she says. “I didn’t map out my life, and I still don’t. Can’t you tell? I consider myself a spiritual person. I sometimes feel like I am guided. I trust in life, I really do. I get asked all the time, ‘What’s next?’ and the fun is that I’m wondering too!”

#10 Patrick Dempsey
In addition to playing Dr. McDreamy on the TV hit Grey’s Anatomy, Dempsey is the romantic hero in movies like Enchanted and Made of Honor.

“I’ve just about achieved some perspective on everything that’s happened,” he says. “I’ve worked hard to get to this point, so I don’t worry that ‘I don’t deserve this.’ I’m grateful for every opportunity. I just want to do it right.”

Russell Brand As A Pirate?

Despite all the controversy over his “indecent” prank calls, Russell Brand is being lined up to star in the upcoming Pirates Of The Caribbean 4.

Brand is apparently being lined up to play the younger brother of Captain Jack Sparrow, played by Johnny Depp.

According to The Sun, the actor could be receiving over $8 million to play in the movie, which also stars Keith Richards as Sparrow’s dad.

A source said “there couldn’t be a role more perfectly suited. There’s a lot of Jack Sparrow in his mannerisms and behavior. Depp’s accent isn’t a million miles away from Russell’s either.

I don’t know how I feel about casting him, but he certainly has the look down and this is a step up from the rumors of casting Zac Efron in the movie.

Top 10 Movie Couples We Want To See Reunited

10. Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling
You didn’t think we’d write a list of our favorite movie couples without mentioning these two, did you? Tender, passionate, and deeply romantic, McAdams and Gosling in “The Notebook” simultaneously break our hearts and give us reason to believe in love. We’d be thrilled to see them together again on-screen and in real life.

9. Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal
Sadly, we know this is a coupling we won’t ever get to see again, but since this is a fantasy list after all, we couldn’t pass up the chance to gush about these two together. Watching Heath and Jake roll around in the hay in “Brokeback Mountain” proved to us that guy-on-guy action? So effing hot.

8. Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon
They weren’t a romantic couple, but in “Thelma and Louise,” the mother of all chick flicks, Davis and Sarandon reignited Girl Power and proved that sometimes the deepest love is platonic in nature.

7. Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes
On their own — or with other people — neither of these two thespians are the most likable on our list, but together, as they were in the 1996 remake of “Romeo and Juliet,” they’re totally captivating. Gone are all signs of the pretensiousness we’ve come to expect from Danes in her more recent movies, and DiCaprio’s over-acting is diluted to tolerable measure with his co-star’s sweet subtlety.

6. Meryl Streep and Dustin Hoffman
Sure, they played a couple in the middle of a divorce and nasty custody battle in the 1979 film, “Kramer vs. Kramer,” but the tenderness between them — not to mention the amazing Academy Award-winning acting — is something we need more of today. Plus, they’ve both had such impressive careers in the nearly 30 years since, we think there’s a great chance to catch lightning in a jar again if these two were to ever reunite on-screen.

5. Scarlett Johansson and Bill Murray
Le sigh! Has there been a more bittersweet love story in recent cinematic history than between these two in “Lost in Translation”? While we love Bill Murray is nearly anything in which he appears, Scarlett Johansson’s luster just isn’t as shiny without him by her side. Together, they have a chemistry that is more kindred spirit than hot passion, a connection we yearn to see more of in this day of gratuitous sex overload.

4. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
So iconic as a couple, they don’t even need last names, but as Mr. and Mrs. Smith in the 2005 movie of the same name, the sexiest couple alive proved to viewers exactly why they belong together. The chemistry between them is palpable, and watching them together, most of us don’t know whom to envy more — her for getting to kiss him, or him for kissing her.

3. Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne
They steamed things up together in the 1993 Tina Turner biography, “What’s Love Got to Do with It?”, earning Bassett an Academy Award and a Golden Globe, and Fishburne his first Oscar nomination. Fishburne has stated about Bassett: “An electrifying thing happens when the two of us work together. I haven’t experienced it with anyone else.” We experience it, too, Laurence. And we want more.

2. Winona Ryder and Johnny Depp
Surely there’s enough water under the bridge for these two, who broke their engagement in the early ’90s, to reunite on the big screen again. They were perfectly sweet and enchanting together in the 1990 movie “Edward Scissorhands” and the sight of those big, soulful eyes they both share is enough to elicit a deep sigh from even the most stoic.

1. Kate Winslet and Jim Carrey
Forget Kate and Leo; we want to see Kate and Jim together again. “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” is one of the few movies we’ve seen Jim Carrey in that hasn’t made us want to claw our eyes out. In fact, Carrey was downright charming, something we’re pretty sure he needs Winslet to pull off. So, what are they waiting for?

Highest Paid in Hollywood

Will Smith was the highest earning actor of 2007 according to Forbes.

Smith brought in $80 million last year. Cameron Diaz was the top earning actress with $50 million. I love reporting on celebrity paychecks, it’s absolutely ridiculous how much they earn.

The top 5 earning celebrity men in Hollywood are:

1. Will Smith - $80 million
2. Johnny Depp - $72 million
3. Eddie Murphy - $55 million
4. Mike Myers - $55 million
5. Leonardo DiCaprio - $45 million

The top 5 earning celebrity women in Hollywood are:

1. Cameron Diaz - $50 million
2. Keira Knightley - $32 million
3. Jennifer Aniston - $27 million
4. Reese Witherspoon - $25 million
5. Gwenyth Paltrow - $25 million

How is it possible that Eddie Murphy earned that much, when we have the likes of “Meet Dave” as our most recent example of his work. The same goes for “The Love Guru” and Mike Myers.

Celebrity Secret Phobias

Whether it’s cockroaches or heights, spiders or flying - everyone has a fear, and if you thought that the phenomenon of phobias do not exist for celebrities, then you need to think twice.

With Scarlett Johansson it is the fear of cockroaches.

“I once knew a girl who actually had giant African cockroaches as pets, and she would play with them and fuss over them. She often tried to get me to touch one, but I wouldn’t. I told her I have been afraid of them ever since I once woke up with one crawling over my face, and another was in my shoe.”

Nicole Kidman is a lepidopterphobe - she is terrified of butterflies.

“I am not afraid of snakes or spiders — just butterflies. It all started when I was a child. Sometimes I would come home from school and the biggest butterfly you have ever seen would be fluttering on our front gate. I”d climb over the fence rather than touch the gate, and crawl around to the side of the house to go in the back door.”

Jennifer Love Hewitt has revealed that she has a number of phobias, the worst of which is a fear of elevators.

“The trouble is that many of the Hollywood meetings I have to attend take place at the top of tall buildings — and I simply cannot set foot in a lift if there are too many people in it. If there’’s four of five people in it, then I just about manage it.

I prefer it when it’s empty so I can scream if I want to. I am also scared of sharks, which is why you will never find me in the sea, and I am a terrible hypochondriac. I have every illness known to man, and I am pretty sure I have had the bird flu four of five times. I know I drive people mad with my phobias.”

Jennifer Aniston has been terrified of flying ever since she was caught in a bad storm in a small plane years ago.

“We became caught up in an electrical storm. And the Toronto to New York flight took two hours, which was twice the usual time.

Every time we flew over a field I hoped the pilot would decide to land, but he didn’t. What really scares me is the take-off. I”ve heard all about the aerodynamics, the speed, the engine — but I still get nervous.”

Among the male celebrities who admit to having phobias is Johnny Depp, who revealed that he is not only afraid of singing in public, but also of clowns.

“I was forced to overcome my singing fear because of the movie Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. I warned director Tim Burton that I wasn’t very confident of my singing abilities.

I also have had an acute fear of clowns — a condition known as coulrophobia — ever since I had nightmares of them as a kid. I used to see their faces leering at me.”

Soccer ace David Beckham suffers from ataxophobia - a fear of disorder or untidiness. We humans call that anal retentive.

He admits that everything has to match: his shirts are arranged in his wardrobe according to color, and he lines up cans of Coke in the fridge.

“I”m very organized and controlled and need to go to bed at night knowing what I”m going to wear the next morning.”

What are you afraid of?

Forbes Power List

oprah.jpg

We all know that Oprah is the shiz when it comes to making money. She commands the minds of underground armies of housewives everywhere. The Queen reclaims her perch at the top of the Forbes Power List for the second year in a row. Her minions sitting below fell short of the $275 million marker.

The Forbes Power List Top 10
1. Oprah Winfrey
2. Tiger Woods
3. Angelina Jolie
4. Beyoncé Knowles
5. David Beckham
6. Johnny Depp
7. Jay-Z
8. The Police
9. J.K. Rowling
10. Brad Pitt

Tiger Woods, not even making half of what Opie made, secured his second place spot at $115 million. Angelina Jolie is up there because her uterus is Brad Pitt’s playground and for bringing home $14 million.

I bet Obama is maniacally laughing on top of Mount Oprah thankful his diabolic plan of garnering the African American version of She-ra on his side is all going according to plan.

Celebrity Peen Exposed

There are many ways to measure talent in Hollywood. But for the authors of “Hollywood Babylon: It’s Back,” size is everything.

Celebrity Peen Exposed - Photo

Borrowing the title of filmmaker Kenneth Anger’s classic scandal bible, authors Danforth Prince and Darwin Porter have dared to publish the pictures and stories too explicit and actionable for even the pulpiest supermarket tabloids.

Celebrity Peen Exposed - Photo - 2

Among those featured in full-frontal shots are Mick Jagger, Daniel Radcliffe, Ewan McGregor, John Malkovich, James Woods, Richard Gere and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. We leave it to you to decide whether all the snaps are authentic.

The authors also write about the reputed size of many other stars in the book, due June 1. Johnny Depp was known as “donkey d-”, they say. Sean Connery posed nude for art studies, and one student said:”It was the biggest I’ve ever seen. It made me drop my charcoal pencil.”

Dishing with abandon, the authors spare no one - especially not the dead, who can’t sue. Lack of sources don’t stop them from claiming:

Marilyn Monroe had an affair with Ronald Reagan. The authors also claim Monroe had a tryst with Joan Crawford but refused to make it an ongoing affair. “She had bad breath,” Monroe allegedly told roommate Shelly Winters. “Besides, she wanted to do things to me that no woman should do to another woman.”

James Dean showed a disconcerting interest in a 12-year-old boy in the early 1950s. Director Elia Kazan believed the tale: “I’ve known many actors who have been twisted up in their sex lives, but never anybody as sick and unhealthy as Dean was.”

Elvis Presley had a gay old time with Nick Adams, who played Johnny Yuma in the hit TV series “The Rebel.”

Lucille Ball launched herself into show business as a hooker, and her husband Desi Arnaz had a fling with Cesar Romero.

Cary Grant had an incestuous relationship with his stepson, Lance Reventlow.

Sir Winston Churchill got “musical” with actor and songwriter Ivor Novello.

Strange things happened to Judy Garland’s body (this in the chapter on “Fan Worship and Necrophilia”).

Police believed Bette Davis killed her second husband, Arthur Farnsworth, by hitting him on the head and causing a hemorrhage that lead to his death two weeks later. But a grand jury - six men who confessed to being ardent fans - found her innocent.

You can pre-order the book on Amazon. I smell all sorts of lawsuits brewing.
