 Sheen & Richards Top Nastiest Celebrity Splits List...

DeGeneres, De Rossi Set Wedding Date...
Talk show queen Ellen DeGeneres will reportedly marry her longtime girlfriend Portia De Rossi in California this weekend.

Jonas Brothers Hit the Streets for Magazine Scoop...
The Jonas Brothers' recent Rolling Stone magazine cover was such a hit among their fans the boys themselves struggled to get a copy.
The siblings were so keen to get an early edition of the publication, they got up early and hit news vendors on the streets of New York on the day the magazine was released.

Prince, Madonna and Michael Jackson hitting the big 5-0...
Perhaps the three most influential and prolific pop icons of the last half century, Prince, Madonna and Michael Jackson, will all be 50 by the end of the summer. But that doesn't mean they're going anywhere.
The "Purple Rain" star turned 50 June 7, Madge will turn 50 tomorrow, August 16, and MJ hits the big 5-0 August 29.
USA Today had several EIC's weigh in on the staying power of these music (and cultural) icons. Here's what a couple of them had to say:
"A reality of pop culture now is the disposability of talent," Us Weekly editor-in-chief Janice Min told USA Today. "That they have permeated several generations is incredible. Any 20-year-old in a car is going to sing along with "1999," "Let's Go Crazy," "Beat It" or "Borderline." These songs are at gyms, parties, weddings. And it's not the Macarena.
"All three are such larger-than-life figures that they've become otherworldly," she says. "It's not like Pete Wentz or Gym Class Heroes. They're still enigmatic and inaccessible and on pedestals, which is the essence of iconic status. Madonna, her whole life, has been called the flavor of the month. It's been a really long month."

No Reality Show for Electra & Patterson...
Carmen Electra's fiance Rob Patterson has promised the couple will not be documenting their marriage in a reality TV show.
Electra previously took part in an MTV show with her ex-husband Dave Navarro - entitled Til Death Do Us Part: Carmen & Dave - which covered their courtship and nuptials. The couple divorced in 2007 after three years of marriage.

Mike Myers Signs Up for 'Bastards' Role...

The Saturday Night Live alum was most recently seen in the big-screen comedy The Love Guru. He has also starred in the Austin Powers and Wayne's World blockbusters.
