Brad Pitt Tweets in China

Earlier this morning (January 7), Brad Pitt became a member of China?s mircroblogging site Sina Weibo, which is similar to the United States? Twitter.

The 49-year-old actor?s first post on his profile read, ?It is the truth. Yup, I?m coming??

Within a matter of hours, Pitt?s profile gained more than 100,000 followers, 30,000 retweets and 13,000 comments from his Chinese fans.

Although it appears the tweet hints at an excursion to China, Brad may have difficulty entering the country since he was banned after starring in the 1997 film ?Seven Years in Tibet.?

According to reports, the Chinese Foreign Ministry was not fond of the negative depiction of its soldiers in Tibet and issued a bar against Mr. Pitt and his visits to the country.

If the super star does head overseas, it is likely that the trip involved work for the French fashion house Chanel.

Kandi Burruss,Todd Tucker Engaged?

Are Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker engaged?Kandi is on vacay and suspiciously has shared several pics with her ring finger covered. And of course it doesn’t help that there has been the rumor that Todd proposed while they were still filming Real Housewives of Atlanta and that it is alllllllll on video – for the finale. those rumors always turn out to be true. Kandi is a great girl so I hope this is true, she deserves to have this happiness and pop out them babies she wants! Kandi is shaping up to be one of the bigger “Housewives” stars, as we will be seeing more of the multi-talented mama in 2013. he just finished up filming “The Kandi Factory” for Bravo and she has a really lucrative adult toy line “Bedrom Kandi.” Her mama gave her the perfect franchise name. Just sayin!   Kim will also have her spin-off but that girl doesn;t make sense to me anymore, so I am not sure I can muster up enough guilty pleasure points to watch that shiz. I will be tuining into Kandi’s show though. And RHOA – if they show them broke @ss grandma strippers again, I will be forced [...]

Whitney Houston And Michael Jackson's Deaths: Gone Too Soon

'You will always remember where you were ... when you heard the news,' Simon Cowell says, echoing the sentiments after Jackson's death.
By Tomika L. Anderson

<P>Few people will forget where they were when they heard that the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, had died in June 2009. And now, the same can be said for 1980s and '90s Queen of Pop Whitney Houston. </P><P> </P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Celebrities React To Whitney Houston's Passing" id="vid:733106.id:1679030" width="240" height="211"></div><p> </P><P> </P><P>The beloved, long-suffering singer died Saturday inside a Beverly Hills hotel room, hours before she was expected to attend a pre-Grammy Awards party thrown by her longtime mentor Clive Davis. </P><P> </P><P>And while the official cause of death is yet unknown &#8212; what's been speculated so far is that Houston may have drowned in the bathtub after taking prescription drugs, including Xanax &#8212; given her very public struggle with substance abuse, depression and anxiety over the past decade, it's hard not to conclude that some drug- or alcohol-related accident may have been to blame. </P><P> </P><P>It's much like, most recently, British singer Amy Winehouse and the late, great Michael Jackson before her, who died after taking a fatal cocktail of propofol and two other drugs. Also like Jackson, Houston's sudden death &#8212; at the age of 48 &#8212; has stopped the world in its tracks, an enormous, one-of-a-kind musical flame forever extinguished. </P><P> </P><P>Even Jackson's brother, Jermaine &#8212; who was first introduced to Houston years ago by Clive Davis at the same Beverly Hills Hilton where the singer passed away &#8212; could not help but draw the comparison. In an interview with CNN overnight, he paid tribute to the two fallen musical giants. "They shared a lot of success in the late '80s and they were great friends," he said. "I'm happy and honored to have been a part of their lives." </P><P> </P><P>And oh, what lives they led: Like Jackson &#8212; who died at just 50 years old, after years of struggling with personal demons &#8212; Houston, too, had an intensely profound and everlasting impact on the world of entertainment. </P><P> </P><P>Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Hudson and countless other chart-topping entertainers have all name-checked her as their musical mentor, icon and inspiration: To date, she is one of the best-selling artists of all time, with more than 170 million albums, songs and videos sold. </P><P> </P><P>In her lifetime, Houston achieved what precious few of them have or ever will &#8212; stacking an astonishing 415 awards, including six Grammys, two Emmys, 22 American Music Awards, 30 <i>Billboard</i> Awards. </P><P> </P><P>Her voice, in its prime, was a national treasure. </P><P> </P><P>"X Factor" mastermind Simon Cowell may have summed it up the best: On "Piers Morgan Tonight," he said, "She was one of the greatest voices in our lifetime. Whitney was the number one singer that other singers want to emulate. People like that can't be manufactured. They've either got, it or they don't." </P><P> </P><P>He added, "You will always remember where you were and what you were doing when you heard the news." </P><P> </P><P>Like Michael before her, gone too soon. </P><P> </P><P><center></center> </P><P> </P><P><b>MTV News' Sway and James Montgomery will be live from the Grammys red carpet tonight starting at 5 p.m. ET to get reactions from music's biggest stars on the death of Whitney Houston. Watch reactions and remembrances at MTV.com.</b> </P><P> </P><P><I>Share your condolences with Whitney's family and friends on our Facebook page.</I></p>
