Kanye West: Taylor Swift Should've Stuck Up for Me!

Why would Taylor Swift ever stand up for Kanye West?!
Leave it to the ego-inflated rapper to insist, during an on-stage rant last night, that the country cutie should have had Kanye's back after his infamous 2009 VMA outburst:


"Taylor never came to my defense in any interview and [she] rode the wave, and rode it and rode it!" he said during a rambling onstage rant last night at New York's Bowery Ballroom.
Huh? Yeah, we don't get it either.
West also blasted the media for how he believes it "exploited" George W. Bush's recent comment about the rapper. The former president said that West accusing him of not caring about African-Americans during Hurricane Katrina was one of his lowest points while in office.
"Look at how they exploited him," he ranted. "They said that he said that was his lowest moment. And as a mass, as America, we took that as a fact.
"If you look at the interview, he said, 'It's one of his lowest moments,' and he said it about 10 different things," West griped.
"But because the popularity of me, they exploited that to make you watch the interview and make you feel that he was stupider than ever...It shows you the way they try to villainize."

Paris Hilton’s Hair-Raising Battle Continues

This is how rich people say, "I know you are, but what am I?"
Paris Hilton is countersuing the hair extension company that is suing her for $35 million, demanding $3 million for fraud, breach-of-contract and inappropriately trading on that famous Hilton name.
Does the heiress' case have roots, or is it all a tease?


Hairtech International sued Paris in August, claiming she wore a competitor's hair extensions and breached her contact by skipping promotional appearances, albeit because she was in jail.
Paris' complaint says Hairtech's story is "born of pure fiction" and alleges that the company exploited her celebrity status. Her filing includes a letter from a colleague of plaintiff Chris Volek's, in which the colleague states that Volek and others at Hairtech have "left a trail of complaints and defrauded victims in their wake."
In various emails, Volek called Hilton "truly amazing," "sensational" and "freaking Stunning [sic]," according to Paris' filing.
Hairtech "sought to capitalize on Ms. Hilton's brand and fame by offering to pay substantial 'guaranteed' royalties in exchange for the right to associate Ms. Hilton's brand with their line of hair products," the suit alleges.
The heiress claims Hairtech failed to pay "in excess of $1.7 million," going so far as to commit "fraud by secretly altering documents presented to Ms. Hilton's company for signature."
All in all, Ms. Hilton is asking for $2.1 million in damages, at least $400,000 in punitive damages and attorney fees, and $500,000 in declaratory relief.

Bitch Stole My Look: Anna Wintour vs. Carey Mulligan

The devil (aka Anna Wintour) wears Lanvin and we're guessing she doesn't like to share. But that doesn't stop Carey Mulligan from copying her look.
Vogue's editor-in-chief (and the inspiration behind The Devil Wears Prada) wore this sleeveless animal-print frock at the Michael Kors show in New York two months ago. She completed her look with metallic kitten heels and a colorful beaded necklace.
Then just last week, Hollywood's fresh-faced fashionista wore the designer dress above the knee for Google's Boutiques.com launch party, pairing the printed number with a black clutch, bib necklace and brown YSL pumps.
So who wears it best, the perfectly put-together editrix (who eats the competition for breakfast) or the fearless ingénue and her quirkier sense of style?

Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester normally gets high marks for her fashion. Here, her top may or may not double as a fishing net ... economical at least.

THG Presents: The 10 Biggest Turkeys of 2010

Happy Thanksgiving to all from The Hollywood Gossip!
What would this holiday be without family, food, football and reflection upon the things we appreciate most ... in the case of THG, that means some of the bird-brained celebs we've had the privilege of covering in the past year.
Without further ado, THG's Top 10 Turkeys of '10 ...

We may rename this the Spencer Pratt Thanksgiving Turkey Award.

10. Barack Obama. The good will and immense popularity enjoyed by the President at the start of his White House term eroded fast, leaving in its wake a deeply polarized electorate and a Congress destined for partisan gridlock.

9. Jake Pavelka. Lame stints on The Bachelorette, The Bachelor and DWTS were enough to overcook this turkey, but his televised breakup special with fake fiancee Vienna Girardi was the year's reality TV douchepocalypse.
8. The Kardashians. Sure, they're harmless, but there's so darn many of these girls. Mix in a hearty helping of Scott Disick and we're just burned out.
7. LeBron James. The NBA's best player, who has never won a title, made this summer all about him and his decision on where to play next year. A "decision" that marked the most absurd, narcissistic, self-serving stunts in sports history.
6. Spencer Pratt. He's fallen off from 2008's Top Turkey status, but he's got staying power. Faking a divorce, getting married for a third time in as many years, blowing through $10 million and turning into a mountain man? Impressive.
5. Dancing With the Stars voters. Bristol Palin? Seriously people?
4. Lindsay Lohan. The definition of train wreck. Second only to ...
3. Charlie Sheen. His violent altercation with wife Brooke Mueller last Christmas combined with Capri Anderson dalliances this fall? Quite a year for Charlie.
2. Mel Gibson. Why? Just listen to his rants. Wow.
1. Tiger Woods. Today, or more accurately early tomorrow morning, is the anniversary of Tiger's car (and image) crash, following a blowout with Elin Nordegren, who learned of his affair with Rachel Uchitel and took a 9-iron to his face.
The months that followed revealed additional mistresses, worried voicemails, nasty text messages, sordid fantasies, ridiculous rumors and bad golf. It's a scandal that may never be equaled, and certainly worthy of Top Turkey billing.

If nothing else ... Tiger Woods' Thanksgiving can't be worse than last year's.

Michael Lohan: Lindsay Wasn't Fired, She Quit!

Michael Lohan is slamming the director of Inferno, Matthew Wilder, for lying about firing Lindsay from the lead role in his upcoming Linda Lovelace biopic.
Celebuzz talked to Michael who claims that, in no uncertain terms, "Lindsay left Inferno. Wilder can shove it up his butt. She didn't want to do that movie."
"He's full of it. He was trying to ride our coattails."

ADVENTURES OF MILO: Today's task? Defend daughter's name!

Lindsay Lohan's highly-anticipated lead role in Inferno had been in limbo after failing drug tests, spending a few weeks in jail and landing in rehab indefinitely.
This caused shooting to be delayed, at which point Wilder said he let Lohan go and replaced her with Malin Akerman. It made sense ... but MiLo's crying foul.
"She doesn't need to do a movie like that," Michael Lohan said. "Give me a break. What a great thing to do for a girl that's going through recovery."
"Put her in a position to act in a position where she's a drug addict. Real genius, and he cares, right? Come on. Biggest hypocrite on the planet."
"If he wants to say he fired my daughter, let him say to to my face."
Your move, Wilder.
