Originally posted 03/20/2012 04:40PM
Oprah Winfrey's cancelation of Rosie O'Donnell's OWN Network show last week didn't rain on the parade of O'Donnell's 50th birthday bash. If anything, it provided reason to amp up Monday night's celebrating.
Arriving with her fiancée Michelle Rounds at the Paris Club's sexy upstairs lounge Studio Paris in Chicago – festooned in yellows and blues with lots of chandeliers – the birthday girl kicked things off by addressing her show's recent demise and encouraging her production team and other attendees to have a great time.

Originally posted 03/15/2012 07:15PM
Lady Gaga showed off her maternal side during a recent chat with Oprah Winfrey.
The "Born This Way" singer, 25, told Winfrey – in an episode of Oprah's Next Chapter that airs on OWN Sunday – that not only does she "want kids," but she wants a "soccer team" full of them.
"Yeah, yeah, I do," a (relatively) conservatively dressed Gaga told the talk show host, 58, when asked if she was serious about wanting a large family. "I mean I'm being superfluous [about the soccer team], but I don't want to have one [child], I want a few."

Originally posted 03/10/2012 11:05AM
They were simple words but resonated loudly.
"My name is Jaycee Dugard, and I want to say that because for a long time I wasn't able to say my name and so it feels good," the soft-spoken woman told the crowd at an awards ceremony Friday night in New York. "I am truly honored to be here tonight with these amazing women who have done and been through so much more than me."
Dugard, 31, who had been kidnapped at age 11 and held prison for 18 years, appeared at her first public event since her ordeal.
Joseph Kony: Why Celebs Are Tweeting About Him
Originally posted 03/08/2012 01:30PM
The film KONY 2012 premiered Monday March 5, at 12 p.m. PST. By noon Thursday, more than 35 million views had registered on YouTube.
With the help of Facebook and Twitter, Jason Russell's documentary has even captured the attention of celebrities including Ryan Gosling, Rihanna, Oprah and Justin Bieber.
The slickly produced 30-minute video follows Russell's efforts since 2006 to raise awareness around the world about Uganda's guerrilla leader Joseph Kony, whose terrifying actions have landed him the top spot of the International Criminal Court's most wanted list. Kony's rebel group has kidnapped thousands of children, turning the boys into child soldiers and the girls into sex slaves.
In a determination to "make Kony a household name," so that Uganda military can find and arrest him, Russell has met with key politicians and his Invisible Children campaign has targeted 20 "culture-makers," including Tim Tebow, Angelina Jolie, Ryan Seacrest and Taylor Swift.
Jimmy Kimmel Packs Oscar Winners into Hilarious Movie: The Movie Trailer
Originally posted 02/27/2012 06:15AM
Oscar night celebrated some of the best movies of the past year. But are you ready for the greatest film ever made?
Jimmy Kimmel put together this amusing teaser for Movie: The Movie – his tongue-in-cheek attempt at making the most star-studded, spectacular film America has ever seen. Or at least, the trailer for it.
The stars are almost too numerous to count – Best Actress winner Meryl Streep, George Clooney, Tom Hanks, Charlize Theron, Matt Damon, Cameron Diaz, John Krasinski, Emily Blunt, Colin Farrell and the list goes on and on, while the plot is too hilariously clichéd to be believed.
