TOP TEN RICHES "B" OPRAH TOPS THE FORBES MAGAZINE LIST
Talk show host Oprah Winfrey tops Forbes' magazine's current List of the 20 Richest Women in Entertainment.
Winfrey, 52, is estimated to have made $1.5 billion in her 20+ year career, followed by Harry Potter author J.K.

Madonna ranks fourth with $325 million, followed by Celine Dion, who's made an estimated $250 million in her career, most recently with a run in Las Vegas.

Just when you think it can't get better than the air guitar, she unleashes the pelvic thrusts.) And in case you were wondering, half of the 20 richest celebrity women aren't married and 13 of them don't have children.

Update: Isaiah Washington Issues An Apology
In response to mounting pressure and an earlier statement released by ABC, Grey's Anatomy star, Isaiah Washington has formally issued an apology following his remarks after the Golden Globes.
“I apologize to T.R., my colleagues, the fans of the show and especially the lesbian and gay community for using a word that is unacceptable in any context or circumstance. By repeating the word Monday night, I marred what should have been a perfect night for everyone who works on Grey’s Anatomy. I can neither defend nor explain my behavior. I can also no longer deny to myself that there are issues I obviously need to examine within my own soul, and I've asked for help.
I know the power of words, especially those that demean. I realize that by using one filled with disrespect I have hurt more than T.R. and my colleagues. With one word, I’ve hurt everyone who has struggled for the respect so many of us take for granted. I welcome the chance to meet with leaders of the gay and lesbian community to apologize in person and to talk about what I can do to heal the wounds I’ve opened.
T.R.’s courage throughout this entire episode speaks to his tremendous character. I hold his talent, and T.R. as a person, in high esteem. I know a mere apology will not end this, and I intend to let my future actions prove my sincerity.”
ABC brass had released a statement earlier this afternoon saying that they were “dismayed” by comments the 43-year-old Grey’s Anatomy star made at the Golden Globe Awards press conference on Monday night and that the issue was "being addressed" .
Washington was caught on tape using the word "faggot" in response to a reporter's question about the same homophobic slur he reportedly made towards costar T.R. Knight on the set of Grey’s last October.
"I did not call T.R. a faggot," he told reporters in the pressroom on Monday. "Never happened, never happened."

T.I. AND GIRLFRIEND TINY ARE ENGAGED AND PREGNANT
Per Sandra Rose she had a nice conversation with Tiny's mom Dianne Cottle-Pope yesterday. She was so sweet. She told me that Tiny loves my website and I really appreciated hearing that. Now that T.I. has bought Tiny a computer she's starting to surf the internet more often.
Dianne also confirmed that the rumors are true: Tiny is pregnant and the baby is due in June!! She doesn't know the sex of the baby but she said Tiny and T.I. are ecstatic. The couple plans to marry after the baby arrives so they are looking at a July date for the wedding.
I won't give away any more details such as the location of the wedding or who will be there. But I did tell Dianne's mom that I would overcome my fear of flying to attend that wedding. lol! Dianne said Tiny does have a Myspace page and she reads your messages. She also contributes photos to the Myspace page so you know the photos you see are hand picked by Tiny.
We talked about Tiny's ex-boyfriend and baby daddy, Zebo. She said he's doing well. He's a music producer and he's looking for talent. She said he comes by to pick up Zonnique, 10, and he gets along well with T.I. The Xscape2Xscape blog has exclusive photos of Tiny and Xscape so check it out.
Dianne also said don't look for a Xscape reunion. It will never happen. Apparently LaTocha Scott registered the name Xscape without the knowledge of the other members. That's too bad because, since their breakup, no other group has come along to rival Xscape.
But Tiny is content to stay home and take care of her babies when she's not on the road traveling with her fiance' T.I. (they're on the west coast right now). So keep it here for more exclusive info on Tiny! Congrats to Tiny and T.I.!

FOXY BROWN KICKED OUT OF ANGER MANAGEMENT FOR BEING TO ANGRY...
January 18, 2007 -- Ravishing rap rough- houser Foxy Brown was kicked out of anger management - for being too angry for staff ers to manage, probation officials have charged.
"Staff members said she threatened to become physically harmful," pro bation lawyer Matilda Leo told Brown's judge in Manhattan Criminal Court yesterday, speaking of a recent battle over bill ing at a Brooklyn anger- management counseling of fice
The probation lawyer said the judge should consider throwing Brown into the hoosegow after her latest antics.
This is my first positive experience in court!" Brown enthused as she left. "At the end of the day, this is going to be a positive experience for me," she said.
"I think I'm going to be the first entertainer to come out of an anger-management program with a rewarding experience," she said.
Brown in the past has blamed her problems on everything from "the system" to a judge who "doesn't like hip-hop."
But she's now taking responsibility for her actions, her lawyer said yesterday.
LINDSAY LOHAN GOES TO REHAB
Lindsay Lohan entered the luxe rehab facility Wonderland Center in Los Angeles' Laurel Canyon on Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 p.m., Us Weekly has learned.
"I have made a proactive decision to take care of my personal health," Lohan tells Us Weekly through her rep, Leslie Sloane-Zelnick. "I appreciate your well-wishes and ask that you please respect my privacy at this time."
She arrived at the facility in a blacked out SUV followed by a caravan of two other cars. Looking somber, the actress carried a dark Balenciaga bag and a Jamba Juice, she wore black tights, a green flannel shirt, a leather jacket, and a black baseball cap that said "Lola."
Though Lohan didn’t attend the Golden Globe Awards, the actress was spotted at Prince’s after-party at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel where "she was totally out of it,” according to an onlooker.
Witnesses say that the starlet partied until 6 a.m. Tuesday morning.
Recently, Lohan's rep confirmed that the actress has been attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings

Grey's Anatomy Isaiah Washington still speaks Gay remarks and the cast is pissed...
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- "Grey's Anatomy" star Katherine Heigl was not pleased with fellow castmate Isaiah Washington's comments following Monday's Golden Globe Awards.
During an interview in the press room after the show's best-drama win, Washington denied his involvement in a heated on-set incident in October during which he allegedly used a homophobic slur.
"No, I did not call (co-star) T.R. (Knight) a faggot," Washington said. "Never happened, never happened."Rather than soothing the situation, his comments left Heigl seething.
(T.R.KNIGHT & ELLEN POMPEO, kATHERINE @ THE GOLDEN GLOBES)
Katherine responded later that night: "I'm going to be really honest right now, he needs to just not speak in public. Period," Heigl told "Access Hollywood" at a Golden Globe after-party. "I'm sorry, that did not need to be said. I'm not OK with it."
She called the comments "hurtful," characterizing the incident as one that should be handled privately among the show's cast and crew.
"I don't think (Washington) means it the way he comes off," Heigl said. "But T.R. is my best friend. ... I will use every ounce of energy I have to take you down if you hurt his feelings."
T.R.Knight, who said soon after the October fracas that he is gay, appeared on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" Tuesday to discuss the original incident and Washington's recent comments.
"He referred to me as a faggot. Everyone heard it," Knight said of the October squabble.
I SAW THIS LIVE THAT NIGHT MYSELF AND WAS PERSONALLY SURPRISED AT ISAIAH IT WAS SO RANDOM THEY WERE TALKING TO THE WRITER OF THE SHOW ABOUT THE WIN AND HE BUTTS IN GOES TO THE MIC AND STATES I DIDN'T CALL T. R. KNIGHT A FAGGOT!!! (HOW RUDE!!)...T.R. LOOKED SO EMBARRASSED AND THE WHOLE CAST STOOD THERE IN SHOCK HE JUST NEEDS TO STOP TRYING TO PROVE HE'S POLITICALLY CORRECT HE JUST BLEW IT AGAIN TRUST ME THIS IS GOING TO BE A BIG DEAL...TO BE CONTINUED...

BEYONCE IS TURNING HER CHART TOPPER INTO SPANISH IRREPLACEABLE
*Getting Beyonce to learn enough Spanish to sing the Latin version of her current chart-topper “Irreplaceable” proved to be a delight for producer/songwriter Rudy Perez, who was hired for the job following his successful stints recording Spanish versions of hits with Christina Aguilera and Il Divo. Perez spoke to Billboard about the challenge:
HOW DID "IRREPLACEABLE" BECOME "IMPRESCINDIBLE?"
PEREZ: I have it all written out in phonetics. We read the lyrics together, and I tell her exactly what she's saying. Even if you don't explain it, she'll ask you because she's very meticulous. So she knows that if the phrase is largate, it means "get the hell out of my face." She says it with that same emotion. I worked hard in trying to find the least amount of troubling words
IS KIRK FRANKLIN STILL LIVING A SECRET LIFESTYLE??
MediaTakeOut claims to have received an email from one of our faithful readers that makes some startling claims about gospel singer Kirk Franklin. Below is the full text of the email.
I was in Dallas, for New Year's eve and that evening some of my friends and I went to an adult bookstore. We were that darn bored, but anyway. Low and behold, who do I see?!?!?!?
Kirk Franklin, himself. Bold as [EXPLETIVE]. What was odd, he saw us looking at him and he kept right on rifling through magazines. He favors hardcore magazines, the ones that include "toys". I just wonder if he's looking at the women or men, in those magazines? HMMM.
He bought several magazines and dvd's. The killer part was when he used his frequent user card. My friends and I fell out laughing. We were asked to leave the store. It's still funny as hell.
And if it was Kirk that our reader saw, the gospel singer may be having a porn-addiction relapse. Kirk has openly admitted to struggling with an addiction to pornography in the past. Last year on The Oprah Winfrey Show, the gospel singer told the audience that Christian counseling helps him to live with the addiction.
Naomi Campbell Pleads Guilty to Assault With a Deadly Cell Phone
The Associated Press reports that Campbell, 36, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault for hitting her maid, Ana Scolavino, with a cell phone over a pair of jeans gone missing from her New York City apartment last March. Scolavino was treated for a head injury.
"I threw a cell phone in the apartment. The cell phone hit Ana,” Campbell told Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Robert Mandelbaum. "This was an accident because I did not intend to hit her." the British beauty must pay her maid’s $363 medical expenses, do five days of community service and attend a two-day anger management program, all in exchange for her guilty plea.
Meanwhile, Campbell's lawyer, David Breitbart said, "I'm hopeful she can do the community service indoors." Ironically, he doesn't want her exposed to dangerous stalkers. Hmmm. We have a funny feeling the cat-fighting catwalker could easily fend for herself!

64TH ANNUAL GOLDEN GLOBE AWARDS AND THE WINNERS IS....
The acting honors (and congrats) for the flick went out to Eddie Murphy and big screen newcomer Jennifer Hudson.
Murphy took the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor and Hudson snagged the statuette for Best Supporting Actress at the 64th annual Golden Globes. The two star in the musical “Dreamgirls.”
Of course we'd be on the late freight if we didn't acknowledge that "Dreamgirls" itself won the Golden Globe's Musical or Comedy motion picture category
Additionally, Forest Whitaker took best actor as Ugandan dictator Idi Amin in "The Last King of Scotland." . Also Ugly Betty took nods, & Grey's Anatomy
NEW COUPLE WHITNEY HOUSTON AND RAY J???
recent photographs of Whitney Houston and Ray J on an apparent date. Word is, Ray J's people tipped the paparazzi off to the "date".The two were seen leaving Maestro's Steakhouse together and eyewitnesses reportedly saw the two getting cosy while enjoying drinks after dinner.
First he makes a sex tape, now he's going on dates with Whitney Houston. It's obvious that Ray J will do anything to see his name in the paper.
OJ CONFESSION BOOK EXCERPT LEAK...
LOS ANGELES - O.J. Simpson's ex-wife charged him like "a banshee," and he then found himself "drenched in blood and holding a bloody knife," according to a hypothetical "confession" contained in his nixed tell-all book, Newsweek magazine says.
In a single chapter obtained by the magazine, titled "The Night In Question," Simpson outlines a scenario that matches much of the actual evidence in the 1994 murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman.
In the book, Simpson says Nicole "all but drove him to kill her. He describes her as the 'enemy.' She is taunting him with her sexual dalliances ... carrying on inappropriately in front of their children," the Newsweek story says.According to Simpson's hypothetical account, he went to Nicole's condo with a friend named Charlie on the night of June 12, 1994, to "scare her" after hearing reports of her wild behavior, including alleged drug use.In his book, Simpson said he kept a wool hat and gloves in his Ford Bronco for when it was chilly at the golf course as well as a knife to deal with the "crazies" around Los Angeles.Simpson insisted yesterday the murder tale in the book was not his work. It "was created mostly by a ghostwriter from research the writer did and is not a confession" by him, he told The Associated Press.Simmpson was paid an estimated $1 million for his quashed book and TV deal with Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. The book was set to be published by ReganBooks, a division of HarperCollins
But angry public protest, led by the victims' families, spurred News Corp. to kill the deal in November. All 400,000 copies of the book were ordered destroyed.
Murdoch fired Regan last month allegedly for launching an anti-Semitic tirade at a company lawyer.
