Barker’s suit claims the companies improperly operated and maintained the plane. The Sept. 19 crash killed two pilots, Barker assistant Chris Baker and Barker bodyguard Charles Monroe Still Jr.

Bronx Mowgli Wentz

Bronx Mowgli Wentz - Yes you heard right - Bronx Mowgli Wentz was born Thursday night to Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz - find out about the little bundle and how mom and dad are doing.

Bronx Mowgli Wentz weighed in at 7 pounds 11 ounzes and was 20.5 inches long. Overall a very average baby.

What is not average is that name - Bronx Mowgli Wentz.

Okay, in the days after Sarah Palin and her odd name choices, we could overlook Bronx, but Mowgli?

Still can’t remember where you’ve heard that name before. Well, Mowgli is the little boy in the Jungle Book.

It seems that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are stuck in some kind of bizzarre fairy tale world. First they had a Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland theme wedding, the baby shower theme was Winnie the Pooh, now they’ve named that poor baby after a mischievious Jungle Book character. Ever heard of the Peter Pan syndrome?

Twilight is the new Harry Potter?

The hype is huge, and the novels have sold 18 million copies worldwide. So we've compiled this list for "Twilight" newbies planning a trip to the movie theater:

1. The books -- "Twilight," published in 2005, is the first in the four-tome series, followed by "New Moon," "Eclipse" and "Breaking Dawn."

Bella: Kristen Stewart
2. Bella Swan -- The 17-year-old heroine, played in the film by Kristen Stewart ("Into the Wild," "Panic Room"), is new in the small town of Forks, Wash., where she goes gooey for a handsome classmate who happens to be a vampire. Bella is the books' first-person narrator.

3. Edward Cullen -- The aforementioned vamp, the tall, pale and handsome yin to Bella's yang. Played by Robert Pattinson -- best known as Cedric Diggory in the "Harry Potter" films -- Edward protects her from evil bloodsuckers. And smooches her.

Edward: Robert Pattinson
4. The Cullen family -- Edward is one of four adopted siblings, and his father, Carlisle, is the town doctor. They're all vampires, but are benevolent and drink animal blood.

5. Jacob Black -- He has a small role in the first book/film, but he must be mentioned: He's played by Grand Rapids-born, Hudsonville-raised star-in-the-making Taylor Lautner. Jacob, who lives with his father in LaPush, the Indian reservation home to the Quileute tribe, is one of Bella's oldest friends. He has a larger role in subsequent stories.

The Cullens: Jackson Rathbone as Jasper and Ashley Greene as Alice
.
6. Stephenie Meyer -- Lots of comparisons to J.K. Rowling for this writer and recent multimillionaire, who got the idea for "Twilight" from a dream. She had input on the movie script, and has a cameo in the diner scene. She's now writing the series from Edward's point of view.

7. Catherine Hardwicke -- Highly credible director gets a major shot at the mainstream with "Twilight." She's no stranger to the subject matter of teenage girls -- her directorial debut was "thirteen," a shocking drama about junior-high girls discovering sex and drugs.

8. Sequels -- Considering advance ticket sales and oodles of hype, they seem like a sure thing. Film studio Summit Entertainment already has optioned the other three books.

9. Team Edward/Team Jacob -- It's no secret "New Moon" finds Bella broken up with the vamp and getting together with howling-at-the-moon Jacob. Hence, the "Twilight" fanbase is divided (and Lautner has a built-in fan base).

10. The next big franchise? -- It sure seems that way. When "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" was bumped from the release schedule, "Twilight" took its prime pre-Thanksgiving spot. Hardwicke recently told Entertainment Weekly it likely would have to earn $150 million before the studio green-lights "New Moon."

Tattoos anyone?

Tattoos have always been popular among celebrities, and this year a raft of famous faces have been taking the plunge and getting themselves a little permanent body art. In the same week 18-year-old Pixie Geldof paid a tribute to her mum, Paula Yates, by having the late TV presenter's signature inked onto the inside of her left wrist, Angelina Jolie, revealed the latest additions to her already extensive collection. The actress has had the co-ordinates of Nice, where her and Brad's twins Knox and Vivienne were born in July, etched onto her upper left arm below the longitude and latitude co-ordinates for the birthplaces of her other children.

Fashion icon Kate Moss also extended her tattoo collection this year, adding a tiny anchor on her right wrist to the pair of swallows on her lower back, the heart on her left hand and a crown of her left shoulder.

Heidi Klum celebrated her fourth wedding anniversary with musician husband Seal by having his name inked onto her right forearm. The beautiful German model also had the initials of her three children's names tattooed in stars next to it.

A new red 'do wasn't all Demi Moore's daughter was showing off in September. Rumer Willis debuted her own body art - the words 'be prepared' picked out across her ribs.

R&B beauty Rihanna, who already has four tattoos – a music note on her ankle, a star on her left ear, a Pisces sign behind her right ear and a Sanskrit prayer on her hip – unveiled a new cascade of stars down her back earlier this year.

Twenty-two-year-old rising star Megan Fox has a total of nine tattoos, including a bull's eye on her lower back, a pink flamingo on her upper thigh, Marilyn Monroe's face on her right arm and "We will all laugh at gilded butterflies", a line inspired by Shakespeare's King Lear, on her right shoulder.

Romantic Eva Longoria marked her commitment to husband Tony Parker in a very special way, by having the date of their July 2007 wedding day inscribed in roman numerals on her right wrist.

Angelina's comments about Brad were 'inappropriate' says Jennifer

For years Jennifer Aniston has steered clear of talking about her ex-husband Brad Pitt's relationship with Angelina Jolie. This month, she has broken her silence, however. In an interview with a US mag the Friends star has described Angelina's behaviour in revealing details about the romance as "inappropriate".

Speaking to American Vogue, Jennifer was referring to an interview with Angelina which the magazine ran in 2006. In it she spoke about her experiences during the making of Mr & Mrs Smith, at which point Jennifer and Brad were still married.

"There was stuff printed there that was definitely from a time I was unaware it was happening," said the 39-year-old. "I felt those details were a little inappropriate to discuss. That stuff about how she couldn't wait to get to work every day? That was really uncool."

Jennifer and her former husband ended their five-year marriage in 2005. The actress insists they remain on good terms, though. "We have exchanged a few very kind hellos and wishing you wells and sending you love and congratulations on your babies," she said. "I have nothing but absolute admiration for him, and I'm proud of him. I think he's really done some amazing things!"

Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake Join Madonna On Stage In LA

As expected, Madonna brought out the big guns for her concert at Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium on Thursday night, as Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake joined the Material Girl on stage, although at different times.
Wearing a subtle white blouse and black baggy pants, Britney joined Madonna on stage to sing the last verse of the track “Human Nature,” much to the delight of the packed house, which included some serious star power – Jennifer Lopez, Ryan Seacrest, Heidi Klum, Drew Barrymore, Nicole Richie and Fergie and Donald Sutherland.

At the end of the song, Madonna then proclaimed “I’m not your b***h!” She then pointed to Britney, adding “She’s not your b***h,” drawing raucous applause from the crowd.

“The crowd went insane,” a concertgoer told Access Hollywood.

The superstar collaboration also included a kiss – although much tamer than the pair’s infamous MTV VMA liplock in 2003.
As Brit finished up her performance, Madonna gave her a hug and kissed her on the hand as Britney left the stage.

Near the end of the show, Justin Timberlake got the crowd buzzing as he took his turn on stage with Madonna, appearing to duet on the hit “4 Minutes,” the same song the pair teamed up for on Madonna’s “Hard Candy” album.

During the concert, Madonna also took the opportunity to offer a bit of political insight, in light of the controversy surrounding California’s Proposition 8, which was passed this week.

“If we can elect an African American as president, we can support gay marriage! Defeat Prop 8! We will not give up!” she told the audience.
