Christina Milian, who for months has been keeping her engagement to Grammy-nominated producer The-Dream under wraps, is officially "engaged," a pal confirms after the R&B singer hosted a Hollywood Hills birthday bash for music producer Billy Clark Saturday at the Venom Energy and Trainwreck Clothing event.
Christina Milian said: "We don't have any wedding plans made yet - but it hasn't already happened, that I can confirm. We just want to have our closest friends and family there - it's not going to be too big."
The-Dream, 27, is said to have popped the question with a six-carat diamond band from Ivanka Trump's range of jewellery.
Milian discussed her pending nuptials—and showed off her Dream-provided bling—at a birthday party she and her new hubby-to-be hosted on Saturday night.
The pair are already thinking about having children, but want to ensure they have achieved as much as possible with their careers before starting a family together.
The-Dream explained: "I love kids, and Christina loves kids probably more than I do.
"I think when you're a female in this business, it's kind of hard to do the natural thing that you want to do. You have to do your work - then whenever she makes that time for herself, she'll make that time to have a baby. In the next couple of years, there'll be something around."

Demi Lovato : Here We Go Again
The title of Demi Lovato's new album could be a bit misleading. Here We Go Again, which hits shelves on Tuesday (July 21), is anything but a repeat of the songs and topics from last year's debut, Don't Forget.
The song is about Lovato's relationship with her dad, and she hopes that by addressing it she can help her fans out. "It's basically about my past relationship with my birth father. ... I think everybody — well, a lot of people — go through this situation where parents divorce, and what they don't realize is that it really affects you. It's selfish for me to bottle up my past when I could be helping others."
Lovato also got to work with some new people on this album, including one guy she's had on her list of dream collaborators for a while. "I actually wrote two songs with John Mayer, one of which will make the album ['World of Chances'] ... it's a really cool song," she said. "It's the first song we wrote together, and working with him was incredible. It was a pipe dream. I didn't even think it would ever come true, 'cause he's just awesome. He's John Mayer."

U.S.Actor James Caviezel Injured In Motorcycle Accident
Actor James Caviezel suffered cuts and bruises when a man hurled a bicycle into the path of his Harley-Davidson motorcycle, says the Washington State Patrol.
Caviezel, who portrayed Jesus in Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ," was injured Thursday afternoon.
Trooper Rich Magnussen says the actor was taken to Cascade Medical Center in this northcentral Washington city for treatment of cuts and bruises.
Magnussen also says the 40-year-old Caviezel, of Woodland Hills, Calif., was wearing a helmet, and that "it could have been a lot worse." The trooper says he doesn't know why the actor was in the area about 14 miles southeast of this city in north-central Washington.
There was no indication why the man tossed the bike into the path of Caviezel's 2006 Harley Davidson but Magnussen says mental issues may be involved.
Caviezel portrayed Jesus in Mel Gibson's movie. He was born in Mount Vernon, Wash.

Actress Kate Hudson & A-Rod Hit the California Beach
After spending time together on the East Coast, Kate Hudson and her Yankees hero beau Alex Rodriguez took their love – and Hudson's 5-year-old son Ryder – to the West Coast on July 10, to enjoy the weekend and the sunny weather at the exclusive Pelican Hill Resort in Newport Beach.
A Sources said that there they stayed within a gated enclave for more privacy, inside a villa featuring an ocean-view terrace and their own infinity pool.
On Sunday, they enjoyed the use of butler service with breakfast in the villa, the sources added.
"They looked like a cute family," says a source, who described Hudson as "very happy, pretty and … casually hanging out in a bathrobe while enjoying a cup of morning coffee."
When Rodriguez left for his Yankees game against the Los Angeles in Anaheim, Hudson stayed behind to enjoy a couple of hours by the pool, where an eyewitness said she "looked great and very happy."

Richard Dreyfuss : Richard Drops Lawsuit against dad
Jaws star RICHARD DREYFUSS has dismissed a lawsuit against his father and son after he accused the pair of failing to pay back a loan.
Dreyfuss sued the men last year, claiming they owed him nearly $4 million on an unpaid loan.
The "Mr. Holland's Opus" and "Jaws" actor claimed he loaned his father, Norman, and uncle Gilbert Dreyfuss, money in the early 1980s. His suit stated the men operated a building in downtown Los Angeles.
He then amended the lawsuit in December 2008 claiming that there is further financial wrongdoing in relation to the case, and demanded the pair pay back $4 million in total.
But, according to Los Angeles court records, Dreyfuss asked for a case dismissal in June (09).
It is not known if there was a financial settlement between the warring sides, but documents state Dreyfuss is at liberty to refile the case if he so wishes.

Maura Tierney : Maura Tierney has breast tumour
Former "ER" star Maura Tierney said in a statement: "In an effort to guard my privacy, it seems that the wording of NBC's press release has unfortunately caused some confusion and undue alarm about my health. I have discovered a tumour in my breast which requires surgery."
Tierney, said NBC's announcement last Friday about the delay "has unfortunately caused some confusion and undue alarm" about her health.
The 44-year-old actress does not know exactly what the tumour is, but remains hopeful she will return to full health shortly.
She said: "I will not know either my exact diagnosis or course of treatment until that surgery is performed. My doctors have all assured me this is a very treatable condition.
I'm very optimistic as to the outcome and want to thank everyone who has sent positive thoughts and support. I look forward to going back to work soon."

U.S. Actress Molly Ringwald Gives Birth To Twins
Molly Ringwald plays the mother of a pregnant teen on ABC Family's The Secret Life of the American Teenager – but in real-life she's a new mom to twins!
The twins join big sister Mathilda Ereni, 5 ½. As for the age difference between the siblings, "I actually think it's a good thing considering we're having twins," Ringwald, 41, told Fit Pregnancy recently.
Born naturally, Adele arrived first at 9:01 a.m. followed closely by her brother at 9:04 a.m.
"I actually think it's a good thing considering we're having twins," Ringwald, 41, told Fit Pregnancy in June. "It would be so much harder with a toddler than with an almost 6-year-old," she said. "It's exciting, especially since it's a boy and girl ... It’s the best of both worlds."
The actress' ABC family series is still in production on its second season, and although her role was reduced to accommodate her maternity leave, Ringwald -- who's real-life pregnancy was written into the show -- reportedly shot several scenes ahead of time.

Michael was murdered ! says LaToya Jackson
Michael Jackson's sister, LaToya Jackson, told a London newspaper she suspects her brother was "murdered" in a conspiracy by "a shadowy entourage."
LaToya Jackson said she knows who is responsible for her brother's death and is determined to see them brought to justice, the News of the World reported.
According to the published interviews with The News of the World and The Mail on Sunday, she did not name any of the people she believes were involved and did not offer any evidence to support her claim that foul play was involved in the singer's sudden death on June 25.
She reportedly said the conspirators used powerful prescription drugs to keep Michael Jackson submissive and under control and also kept him away from his family.
"I feel it was all about money," she was quoted as saying by the News of the World. "Michael was worth well over a billion in music publishing assets and somebody killed him for that. He was worth more dead than alive.
She also claimed, the newspapers reported, that roughly $2 million (1.23 million pounds) worth of cash and jewelry was taken from Michael Jackson's rented mansion and has not been accounted for.

American singer Jessica Simpson Dumped by Tony Romo
The clock has run out on Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo's relationship.
A source close to Simpson confirms they broke up the night before her 29th birthday July 10. She was supposed to celebrate with a Ken and Barbie-themed party.
"She canceled her party because of this," the source tells Us. "She's doing OK."
Later, she wrote: "Everyone needs to know that hope floats...grab the strings and pull it back to you... Falling asleep with my mom and the dogs. Please, Lord, give all of my beautiful fans, friends, enemies, and family rest. Bring all of us peace."
Simpson - who turned 29 July 10 - began dating Romo, 29, in November 2007 -- around the two-year anniversary of her split with Nick Lachey .
Simpson said she was watching a Cowboys game with her family when a segment on the quarterback aired, during which he said Simpson was his celebrity dream crush.
They later met after a pal introduced Romo to her dad, Joe. Simpson said she and Romo then began flirting "over e-mail and on the phone."
On their first date, Simpson told Glamour, "I had butterflies that you would not imagine. I wanted to puke in the cup holder ... It took me forever to put together an outfit!"
Despite professing her love for Romo, their relationship underwent its share of scrutiny.
Simpson - who the subject of much debate after she showed off a fuller figure earlier this year - told this June's Vanity Fair that they didn't let the criticism get to them.
"We don't let it affect our relationship," she said. "If we did, we wouldn't be together, because it happened at the very beginning. Dating the Cowboys quarterback comes with hype, the fans, the bloggers, but I've never dated a guy that was more simple. I'm always there for him after a game, and he knows he has me to come home to."

He’s just a good friend!” Watson said. “He’s a super-nice guy, and girls love him. We’re just friends — but he sure was great to work with.”
Twilight hunk Pattinson's current onscreen love interest Kristen Stewart has also been fighting off rumours they became a couple after appearing onscreen together last year in the vampire love story.
But Watson insists the 23-year-old British actor was a gentleman onset when they worked on Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
The exes — who have been spending an uncommon amount of time together — canoodled all over New York on Thursday night. They giggled and flirted during dinner at the Empire Hotel’s Center Cut, chatting about their mutual love of theater before ducking out to catch the ballet. Later, the two indulged in a steamy makeout session in front of friends at East Village watering hole Cabin Down Below.

Actress Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt looking for New York digs
American actress Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt may be looking to buy in Manhattan.
Brad Pitt and Jolie have rented when they've come to town. Recently, while Angie's been shooting "Salt," the Brangelina brood has divided its time between the Waldorf Towers and Rupert Murdoch's Rosehearty estate on the North Shore.
"The gated courtyard means they can get in and out of their car without being hassled by paparazzi," says a source. "The building also has several other exits."
That could buy them a lot of space, considering Douglas Elliman has slashed prices from $3,000 per square foot to as low as $1,500.
Pitt, who is something of an architectural historian, is bound to be beguiled by the handwrought period details of the residence, built in 1908 by the Astor family. Some apartments are as large as 13 rooms and boast 11-foot ceilings and 44-inch-wide hallways. And restoration-minded buyers can customize the raw space to their liking.
The Apthorp has long been celebrity-friendly. Nora Ephron and Cyndi Lauper are among those who rented before the condo offering. Among those who've checked out the conversion have been actors Alec Baldwin, Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick, and Knick David Lee and his model-girlfriend Sabina Gadecki.

Robert Pattinson is a better sex symbol,Says Daniel Radcliffe
Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe says ladies are better off lusting after Twilight's Robert Pattinson.
"Rob Pattinson is a sex symbol. Rob Pattinson is a genuine sexy guy. He's got the height," Us magazine quoted Radcliffe as saying.
He said he hasn't spoken much to Pattinson, whose Twilight films are just as popular with teens as the Potter ones.
He added: "If girls like short and nerdy, then I'm a sex symbol!"
Though he is mum on his dating life -- "As a romantic leading man, I try to keep my personal life as far removed from the film as possible," he said -- he said he can still get gushy.
"I suppose I am fairly romantic in my own life!" he told Us. "You know, I like to think I am. Maybe ex-girlfriends might disagree with me!
"I've said probably three words to him in the last three years and that was before Twilight all kicked off. But I wish him well. Hopefully, I'll see him at some point. He's bound to turn up at one of these [premieres] at some point," said Radcliffe.

Sacha Baron Cohen : Bruno tops US box office
SACHA BARON COHEN's outrageous BRUNO movie has topped the U.S. box office with an opening weekend of $30 million.
The comedy ended the summer stranglehold on the top of the film charts by Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, which slipped into second and third place, respectively.
The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation said that though the film may have meant to skewer homophobia, it "also reinforces troubling attitudes about gay people in ways that run counter to the intentions of the filmmakers.
Johnny Depp's portrayal of gangster John Dillinger in Public Enemies proved less popular with cinema goers, falling to fourth place with 14.1 million dollars, 57 per cent less than the previous week. The Proposal starring Sandra Bullock was in fifth place with 10.5 million dollars.

A source tells the tabloid, "Jamie took over the microphone and started doing a show. Halfway through, he asked Rihanna to join him onstage. Rihanna declined, but Foxx continued to badger her.”
When the DJ began to play that was the last straw. She got up to leave, and Jamie told the DJ to stop the record. (He shouted) 'You can’t go while your song is playing'.”
This is not the first time Foxx has offended a celebrity. He sparked outrage in April this year during a US radio interview when he urged 16-year-old “Hannah Montana” star Miley Cyrus to take heroin and make a sex tape.

King of Pop Michael Jackson 'Murdered for his money'
In interviews with Sunday newspapers, La Toya gave details about the 50-year-old singer's sudden death, drugs found in his body and a stash of cash and jewels that she claims have gone missing.
La Toya, 53, accused a "shadowy" group of hangers-on of cutting him off from his family and friends and forcing him to sign up for 50 concerts at London's O2 arena.
She told one paper: "We don't think just one person was involved in the murder. It was a conspiracy to get Michael's money."
They also fed him drugs and saw him as a "cash cow", she claimed.
"Michael was worth more than a billion dollars. When anyone is worth that much money, there are always greedy people around them."
Jackson was the "loneliest man in the world" with no real friends and isolated from his family at the time of his death - less than 12 hours after completing a rehearsal for his tour, she said.
La Toya said she was at her home close to Jackson's in Beverly Hills when she was told by her father that her brother had been taken to the UCLA Medical Centre.
While in the car on the way to the hospital she said her mother screamed down the phone, "He's dead!".
"I nearly crashed my car," La Toya said. "My legs went weak. I couldn't press down on the gas pedal. I got to the wrong entrance at the hospital and was begging the security guys to help me and take my car because I was so weak and faint.
"Michael didn't keep a close eye on his finances," she said. "A lot of people made a lot of money out of Michael."
She pledged the family would file a civil lawsuit against anyone they believed responsible and push for police to bring criminal charges.

Harry Potter : Sixth Harry Potter film will be a test of the wizard's staying power
"Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" opens, but the movie landscape has undergone seismic shifts since the film franchise started in 2001 and skipped through the decade earning nearly $4.5 billion worldwide.
The entertainment world has morphed just since August, when Warner Bros. announced it was bumping the sixth Potter movie from November 2008 to July 2009 and incited angry online petitioners.
Now, "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" has Voldemort tightening his grip on the Muggle and wizarding worlds, as danger and hormones rage.
After all, "The Lord of the Rings" films each were nominated for Best Picture and the third won, and he ranks "Potter" in their league.
After box-office expert Paul Dergarabedian saw the latest "Potter" at an industry preview, he blogged he was "blown away like a Quidditch player on a supercharged broomstick. Not only that, halfway through I'm thinking the unthinkable -- 10 Academy Award nominations are available this year, hmm, I wonder ... ."
"I just thought the movie was terrific, I really enjoyed it. It made sense to me, I got involved, I liked the fact that they're older and definitely more assured in their acting and even the characters are more interesting," says Dergarabedian of hollywood.com.
"Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" will be the first Rowling adaptation since "Twilight," but it also has girl power driving it. The series also has withstood date and seasonal switches and the audience has literally grown up with 16-year-old Harry, Ron and Hermione, leading to predictions for another big opening week.
If not record-breaking, certainly magical.

Actress Raven-Symone not pregnant
The Internet has been abuzz with whispers of a possible pregnancy – and, by some accounts, birth – for That’s So Raven star Raven-SymonĂ©, but the rumors have been put to rest.
"Raven-Symone is not pregnant nor did she give birth," her representative told People magazine.
The internet went wild on Wednesday when a blog claimed to have been contacted by someone close to Raven’s camp to inform them of the birth of a baby girl. The blog even went as far as to say the father of the baby was fellow child star Jurnee Smollett’s older brother, Jussie, who Raven did date briefly.
That much should be evident when the 23-year-old actress and singer-songwriter takes the stage Thursday night at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, N.J.
The 23-year-old actress is best known for her work on TV's "That's So Raven," "Hangin' with Mr. Cooper" and "The Cosby Show."
Though Raven has been lying pretty low since ending her run on the Disney Channel hit show That’s So Raven and releasing her self-titled album last year, she has made public appearances recently — and she didn’t appear with child at any of the events. She attended Kanye West’s Stay In School benefit concert in Chicago on June 11, and the “Creme of the Crop” post-BET Awards party in Los Angeles on June 28.
Her latest album, the self-titled Raven-Symoné, is in stores now.
She will perform tonight in New Jersey at Six Flags.

"Completely befuddled and they don't know what we're talking about," he added.
Johnny Depp said: "A guy actually came to me one time after watching Tim and me talk for ten minutes and said, 'I didn't understand a word that you guys were saying.'

Harry Potter Star Emma Watson sets up love nest
The 'Harry Potter' actress Emma Watson has bought a new property in London which she is now sharing with financier Jay Barrymore.
"Her relationship with Jay is going from strength to strength. They are spending increasing amounts of time with one another. It makes perfect sense for Jay to leave some of his stuff at hers and see how it goes. So far, so good - and Emma's confident they'll stay together even when she's abroad."
A source said to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "Despite the fame, she's really got her head screwed on. After consulting with several property experts, as well as her family and friends, she's decided to invest in her own place.
The 19-year-old star - who is worth an estimated £10.5 million - is now living close to her father Chris' house and believes buying the property is a sound investment.

Katherine Jackson : Katherine denied control of Michael’s estate
Katherine Jackson argued lawyer John Branca – who was named as a co-ex ecutor of Michael’s estate alongside lawyer John McClain in a 2002 will – should not be allowed to assume control as he had a conflict of interest.
“There are a lot of open questions surrounding Michael Jackson's death. Mr. Branca was removed in 2006 as a trustee and Katherine was added, so we have concerns about turning over the keys to the kingdom.”
Lawyers for Michael’s mother, who was not present in the Los Angeles court, said: “Mrs. Jackson is more concerned than ever that the co-ex ecutors are proper to serve.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff ruled Branca and McClain will have control until at least August 3.
During the hearing, which took place yesterday, it was stated that Michael’s estate added up to $500 million.
Branca and McClain were issued a £1 million bond to be used to pay employees and legal fees until August 3.
The pair also asked to be allowed to speak to AEG, the concert promoters behind the 50-show comeback Michael was set to perform at London’s 02 arena.
They said: “The estate is liable for tens of millions of dollars to AEG. We need to reduce the liability and negotiate. We need the power to deal with merchandising, pay-per-view TV, etc.”
Judge Beckloff replied: “I have no issue with you all negotiating that on behalf of the estate, subject to court approval. Katherine can have input on that."
Last week, Katherine filed a petition to become guardian of the estate of Michael – who died of a suspected cardiac arrest last month – in which she claimed he passed away "intestate", without making a will.
