While being interviewed, Celine Dion admitted to smoking pot. Giggling like a school girl she told the tale of her adventure with marijuana.
Does the person pictured above look like a pot smoker to you!?
‘The only time I did one puff was in Holland, where it’s legal. And I went to a cafeteria with some girls, with the little boats and the canals and we stopped and I tried.’
But the 39-year-old insists the substance had no effect on her: ‘Nothing. No. But I didn’t choke. I took one puff and I said, ‘Okay, nothing happened!’ It was funny. ‘It was, for us, like cheating. ‘Oooh!’ You know, there might be paparazzi!”
While I am not a rocket pot scientist…I am pretty sure she did it wrong. Dion is the only celeb found of weed. David Arquette, Mischa Barton, Kelly Clarkson, Paris Hilton, Cameron Diaz, Kirsten Dunst, Norah Jones, Woody Harrelson, Owen Wilson, Adrianne Curry and even Barak Obama all have admitted to or been spotted with a doobie.
Obama also spilled the weed during an interview in 2007.
“When I was a kid I inhaled frequently. That was the point.”
I think I might actually be able to tolerate her if she were stoned off her extensions.
Queen of country music Reba McEntire said “um…no thanks” to a collaboration with Jessica Simpson for her new CD, Reba Duets, which debuted at number one.
Uh oh… slam.
While Jessica Simpson could have used the boost the report claims it was a no-go from Reba.
The classy singing legend personally approached young pop stars including Kelly Clarkson and Justin Timberlake, but when Jess, 27 – who hopes to make it as a country singer – contacted Reba about appearing on the album, no one from Reba’s team responded, the report claims.
“Jess thought she had been passed over because Reba would be singing with older, more established artists,” a source close to Jessica said. “She was devastated when she found out that Kelly Clarkson was invited to be part of the project.”
I really don’t blame Reba on this one, Jessica’s singing rather sucks.

Kelly Clarkson is taking back the things she said about Clive Davis and the release of her album. Remember the phrase “I get you don’t like my album. You’re 80; you’re not supposed to”? Maybe some brain cells are coming back - it’s never smart to anger the man who signs your paycheck.
In a statement posted today on her website, Kelly writes:
“A lot has been made in the press about my relationship with Clive. Much of this has been blown way out of proportion and taken out of context.
“I’m well aware that Clive is one of the great record men of all time. He has been a key advisor and has been an important force in my success to date. He has also given me respect by releasing my new album when he was not obligated to do so.
“I really regret how everything has turned out and I apologize to those whom I have done disservice. I would never intentionally hurt anyone. I love music, and I love the people I am blessed to work with. I am happy that my team is behind me and I look forward to the future.”
Kelly Clarkson is funny and likes to eat, that’s why I like her. Check out her interview in the August 2007 issue of Blender magazine.
On what she does in her free time: “You know, I never go out. If I’m in L.A., I’m usually at my house playing Guitar Hero.”
On her lying music label, BMG: “Everyone keeps saying how hard this record is because of all the crap surrounding it, but that last one was really hard to make. I literally got told to my face that it wouldn’t sell more than 600,000 copies. And I got lied to. One reason I don’t like working with people at the label is that they lie. They told me, ‘We really want you to go to Sweden. These people really want to write with you.’ So I flew to Sweden with lyrics I’d written to this track I’d been sent, ‘Since U Been Gone.’ I get there, and the writers are like, ‘Oh, we already have lyrics. We just want you to sing it.’ It was really awkward. It was mean. That’s why there’s no relationship with them. Because I don’t like to be lied to.
On ex-boyfriend David Hodges, former Evanescence keyboardist: “I didn’t even really like the guy. I’m more mad at myself for being so blinding. Why would I pick someone like him to date? What’s wrong with me? … It’s fine in the end. Maybe I had to go through that and learn more about myself. Maybe that’s why I don’t date much, either.”
On how many boys she’s made out with: “Four? No, wait. Oh my God, five! I have major trust issues. [laughs] I just don’t make out with people. That’s a waste of my kisses and time. And it’s so personal. It’s like, my face. Plus, I’m afraid of mouth herpes.”
On her face-to-face meeting with music exec Clive Davis: “It was nice. IT was just the two of us, and his dog. I was like, I don’t know you very well, and I am not a bulls******. I get you don’t like the album. You’re 80; you’re not supposed to like my album. I said, ‘Clive, I’m going to make tons of albums. It doesn’t have to be mainstream every time. Then he kept bringing up people he’s worked with. ‘You’re a Whitney! You’re a Mariah!’ ‘First of all, Mariah writes a lot of her stuff. Secondly, I don’t want a career like either of those singers. That’s why it’s hard for us to make an album. You don’t know me! You don’t know what I like, and you don’t know what my fans like.”
On her much maligned new album, Kelly Clarkson expressed nothing but love for her former manager — then she fired his ass!
While the feud, er, creative differences between Kelly and music mogul Clive Davis haven’t been a secret, her recent firing of The Firm’s Jeff Kwatinetz — on top of scrapping her tour — proved there was trouble in Clarksonland!
But in the liner notes of “My December,” Clarkson sings a different tune by writing, “Thank you to my manager Jeff Kwatinetz for arguing with me and fighting for me!
I hate ‘yes’ people, and you are far from that, always wanting the best out of me and for me. Sometimes I want to punch you, but most of the time you inspire me and make me laugh, because you are one of the most passionate and driven people I have ever worked with.
Thank you for believing in me! I STILL CAN’T BELIEVE WE GOT THIS RECORD OUT, HA HA!!”
Neither can Clive Davis!
Despite the pleasantries, Kelly fired Kwatinetz, who was once engaged to Brittany Murphy, and hired Reba McEntire’s manager/husband Narvel Blackstock. Let’s hope Blackstock can save our little Miss Independent from self-destructing.
“My December” debuted this week at #2 on the Billboard charts selling over 290,000 copies. Yeah, yeah. Since u been gone!
It’s official: The sex tape featuring an “American Idol” castoff is real … real dirty.
TMZ has obtained the exclusive first images of the shocking video, featuring Season Two contestant Olivia Mojica. Here’s one pair of lungs Simon won’t dis!
The video, which Mojica made with her boyfriend a month ago in her New York City apartment, is set to hit shelves on May 3, courtesy of Vivid Entertainment, the adult entertainment company behind Kim Kardashian’s X-rated romp. Vivid is currently hosting the uncut trailer at hardcoreidol.com.
Reps for Vivid, who claim they obtained the footage through an unidentified third party, are currently trying to contact Mojica to see if she will help promote the video and share in revenue from its sale.
Click here for the video. Egotastic has saved a copy, too, in case that one goes away.
Derek Hail is very enthusiastic: “The Olivia Mojicasex tape is real and is as raunchy as all the hype suggested. In what seems like the dirtiest sex tape I have ever viewed the preview of, Olivia puts Kim Kardashian’s sex tape and Keeley Hazell’s sex tape to shame. It’s much dirtier and probably a lot more entertaining.”
OLIVIA MOJICA MAKES HISTORY AS FIRST “AMERICAN IDOL” CONTESTANT TO GO HARDCORE
Beautiful brunette singer Olivia Mojica just missed becoming a finalist on “American Idol” but she will now show she can go all the way in another field - the first contestant on the show to make a hardcore sex video.
A Texas native, the vivacious, green-eyed Mojica is the latest celebrity to see a video she recently made with her boyfriend find its way into the public arena and get broad distribution from Vivid Entertainment, the world’s leading adult film company. The DVD is titled “Hardcore Idol” and preview footage is available to view at www.hardcoreidol.com. The DVD will be in stores across the country on May 3rd. Vivid is the same firm that is currently distributing the blockbuster sex video made by sultry socialite Kim Kardashian and R&B artist Ray J.
“We have a great combination here.” ‘American Idol’ may be the most popular show in the history of television. Olivia is really cute, the sex is really hot and there is much controversy surrounding the show.” said Steven Hirsch, co-chairman of Vivid. “If she was in the adult business, she would be an instant superstar.”
Mojica was ranked as one of the “best of the rest” in the second season of the wildly popular Fox TV show “American Idol,” when she was just 18. She performed last on March 3, 2003, singing “Because You Loved Me” made popular by Celine Dion, but lost out to a field that included Ruben Studdard, Corey Clark and Clay Aiken. She is currently singing at clubs and other venues across the country as well as working on a full length album which is expected to be in stores nationwide in the first quarter of 2008.
The video, which Mojica made with her boyfriend Adam Roberts, a month ago in her New York City apartment, was obtained by Vivid from an unidentified third party. Vivid is currently trying to contact Mojica to see if she will help promote the video and share in revenue from its sale.
A bit of scandal seems to surround the “American Idol” show each season. This year it to revolves around Sanjaya Malakar who may be getting votes generated by Howard Stern, despite of his lack of singing ability. Olivia Mojica’s role in the show’s history is bound to be noted as well.
Thank God this isn’t a Ruben Studdard sex tape! I’ll wait for the Kelly Clarkson sex tape.
