Is this a Halloween prank or something?

Beyoncé’s publicistis having to deny internet rumors that the singer is faking her pregnancy.

According to Rollingstone.com:

The rumors stem mainly from an appearance on the Australian talk show Sunday Night HD in which her stomach appeared to fold when she sat down, suggesting that she was wearing a prosthetic baby bump. This led to further speculation that the R&B star and her husband Jay-Z had hired a surrogate or were secretly planning to adopt.

Beyonce’s people say the prosthetic rumors are “stupid, ridiculous and false.”

You can judge for yourself.  Fwd to 1:01 for a questionable moment:

I could point out the irony that MTV is handing out awards for videos on a network that has drifted far away from music and videos, but I’m even sick of myself saying it.

Still, they go on with the Video Music Awards show, because it’s a forum for celebrities to do something crazy and get their name in the press.

Here’s the Top 5 non-interesting things that happened at last night’s VMA’s, including why they are dumb.

5. Lady Gaga Dresses In Drag – Even dressing as her male alter-ego Jo Calderone, she’s at the point where nothing she does surprises me. This was just another non-shock.

4. Tony Bennett Does An Amy Winehouse Tribute - A sad story relived, but most of the audience probably said ‘Who’s Tony Bennett?”

3.  Appearances & Wins from Jersey Shore, Foo Fighters, Chris Brown, Britney Spears. Really.  Who else were they gonna give awards to?

2. Kay Perry Wins/Wears Cube Thing On Her Head - I think it was the formal outfit of the Alien Galactic Space Colony that she has joined.  They melted her brain in 2008.

1.  Beyonce’ Performs/Reveals Baby Bump - Dios Mio!  I hate the term baby bump.  What do I care if she’s pregnant?  Good for her, but now Jay Z has 100 problems.  He’s gonna have to change the lyrics to his song “99 Problems.”

Check out this cool Billboard.com article about 13 Things We Didn’t See At The VMA’s.

Justin Bieber is ready to tell all.  He’s got a 3D movie, nail polish line and comic book all in the works and now it’s time for the 100% official memoir, straight from the singers whiny lips.  Not quite ready to go out and spend $21.99 to learn about his humble beginnings, YouTube stardom, and romantic life or waste 240 pages of your life?

Here are the top 10 Things you can learn:

1.  Break some rules
“Singers aren’t supposed to have dairy before a show, but we all know I’m a rule breaker. Pizza is just so good!” -page 15

2.  No one starts a life like Celine Dion
The day I was born, March 1, 1994, Celine Dion was solid at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “The Power of Love.” Not a bad song to start your life on.” -page 26

3. Dare to be crappy at all sorts of stuff.
“Dare to be a sucky skateboarder or a lousy video editor or a completely crappy golfer. If we do only the stuff we’re good at, we never learn anything new.” -page 52

4. Dudes: Speak French, Impress Chicks
“Now I’m really glad that I speak French, because, let’s face it, girls dig it when a guy speaks French. They call it the language of love, and that ain’t no coincidence. Plus, I love my French fans! Très jolie!” -page 60

5.  Hockey or Beyonce…tough call in getting the blood flowing
“Nothing ever got my pulse racing (in a good way) like hockey. Well, nothing except Beyonce, but that wasn’t until I was twelve or so. Then, all of a sudden, it was like I opened my eyes one day and noticed that the world is full of beautiful girls, and I’ve had a hard time thinking about anything else ever since.” -page 71

6.  Got a small butt in 8th grade? It’s your destiny
“I got up there and sang my little eighth-grade butt off, thinking this was possibly the greatest moment of my entire life — of anyone’s life — better than hockey, better than ‘Star Wars,’ better than Grandma’s turkey and gravy.” -page 88

7.  Life without the hair swoosh is no life at all
“I’d just gotten the ugliest haircut of my life the day before. My trademark swoosh was hacked off into this squarish situation that kind of reminded me of Bart Simpson.” -page 124

8. Success is like bungee jumping in New Zealand
“I couldn’t believe things were finally coming together. I was almost afraid to believe it. The only thing I can compare it to is when I bungee-jumped off a bridge in New Zealand not long ago. It was a long journey to get there, but, at the last minute, there I was. Standing there. Ready. I had no idea what this was going to be like, but I knew it was going to be awesome.” -page 143

9.  Aim to be 1/10 Michael Jackson
“If I can do just one-tenth of the good Michael Jackson did for others, I can really make a difference in this world.” -page 177

10.  Don’t even THINK about swearing
My foot was broken. In the middle of a song. In front of twelve thousand people. And Taylor Swift. I won’t tell you the words that went through my head.” -page 199

5. Why doesn’t VH1 just drop the ruse that they’re a music channel. It’s become all reality pretty much all the time. And now VH1 has announced plans for FORTY FOUR original series this year, all centered around celebrities, music and real life stories. Among the new shows, “You’re Cut Off!” which premieres in June. It shows what happens when you take nine spoiled young women and completely cut them off from shopping and getting their mani-pedis and force them to live life as normal people!! Another couple shows to look forward to — I’ve got to set my Tivo before I forget — “Diary of a Hip Hop Girlfriend,” “My Big Friggin Wedding,” and she’s back! “Fantasia for Real 2″!!!!!!
4. Courtney Love says no, Robert Pattinson will not play her late husband Kurt Cobain in the movie about his life. She says, “Isn’t that so stupid? Who would cast him? That’s just wrong. No offense.” How could he not be offended?! Courtney says there are only two men who could play the part of Kurt — Ryan Gosling and this Scottish actor named James McAvoy. As for the part of Courtney? She says she’s had her eye on Scarlett Johansson for some time. But the movie is still in the earliest stages of development. The script for “Heavier Than Heaven” is just now being written.

3. MediaTakeOut.com has just found out that Beyonce will be performing at a wedding in Nigeria next week. It was an offer she couldn’t refuse — $2 million. Nigerian billionaire Chief Mike Adenuga Jr. hired Beyonce to sing at his daughter Bella’s wedding. Adenuga made his fortune founding a Nigerian telecom company.

2. Snooki is back on the market. She dumped her body-building boyfriend Emilio because she he was flirting with other girls on Facebook — which is how the two of them hooked up in the first place — and she was paranoid that he was just using her to get famous. The straw that broke the camel’s back was when she found out Emilio was trying to get a part on the next “Real World.” Emilio says he found out he was single again by checking Snooki’s facebook status.
1. Kim Kardashian says she has a regret — posing for “Playboy.” She told “Harpers Bazaar” that she’s sorry she did it because she was uncomfortable about it. But her momager Kris Jenner pressured her into it. She says her mom told her, “They might never ask you again. Our show isn’t on the air yet. No one knows who you are. Do it and you’ll have these beautiful pictures to look at when you’re my age.”

First it was one and now it’s four. Jesse James’s 4th mistress has come forward and hired Gloria Allred. You may remember her as the lawyer for half of Tiger’s mistresses. She said her affair lasted several years and ended only when the scandal broke. And yes, there’s proof. Hundreds of text messages, emails and photos. She is still unidentified by the media but Gloria says she is a model and business woman. Jesse’s second mistress, Melissa received a text from him yesterday! He sent her a message saying, “I’m angry at you and disappointed you’d do this”. Apparently he doesn’t consider the fact that she’s already shared everything else, so of course she’s going to reveal this.

Apparently a new little brother isn’t the only baby in Beyonce’s life. MTV UK is reporting that Beyonce is with child. The rumor is apparently from a rock solid source who says she’s doing fine and resting for now. They also say that Jay-Z is extremely happy to having his first child with “Bey”. She’s always openly expressed her desire for a family, once saying that she wants a whole bunch of kids.

A huge reality show gets cancelled! After six seasons of drama, MTV has decided it’s time for the Hills to go away. Creator Adam Divello says that the kids have found themselves and embarked on different paths. There are only 12 episodes left which begin April 27th. In these you will see a lot of story lines from Heidi and Spencer, including her mom’s reaction to seeing Heidi for the first time after the 10 plastic surgeries. You will also get to see Audrina dating Ryan Cabrera and Kristin Cavallari dealing with rumors of drug abuse. LC might even make an appearance!

5. Season six of “The Hills” starts April 27, but after this season, that’s it. MTV is pulling the plug on the show. MTV says they owe it to the fans to go out ona high note, so this season will deliver in terms of drama, story, real emotion and an “organic culmination of this saga.” Among the issues they’ll cover in the final season — Heidi Montag revealing her newly madeover self to her mom and Kristin Cavallari’s rumored cocaine use. Also, for some mysterious reason, Spencer Pratt leaves the series mid-production, but producers promise he’ll be in most of the episodes.

4. Rihanna has asked her boyfriend Matt Kemp to move into her brand new Hollywood mansion. When Matt returns from spring training camp with the Dodgers next week, he’ll be sleeping at Rihanna’s every night. But! A source says Matt’s keeping his house to see how things go.

3. So far, four women have come forward to say they’ve had affairs with Jesse James while he was married to Sandra Bullock. But the latest one has lawyered up and hired Gloria Allred, who has a little experience representing the mistresses of celebrities. Gloria says her client is still in the process of trying to decide if she’ll come forward, but she described her as a beautiful model and businesswoman who had a 3-year relationship with Jesse. She says, “He pursued her and had strong feelings fro her…She has proof of their relationship, including hundreds of text messages, emails and photos.” Gloria also says the relationship only recently ended, after the scandal with Michelle “Bombshell” McGee broke.

2. Justin Bieber was photographed walking the streets of NYC with his arm wrapped around the shoulders of a mystery black woman and suddenly it was on the internet that this was Justin’s girlfriend and he’s down with the brown. Well, it turns out that this woman is Melissa Victor, who is the Senior Director of Publicity for Justin’s record label. So not only does she work for Justin, she’s about twice his age! Melissa had just left Justin’s taping of “The View” and they were just going to get a bite to eat.

1. MediaTakeOut.com says they have learned from “a rock solid source” that after 2 years of marriage, Beyonce is pregnant and doing just fine. Of course, it was rumored about a dozen times that she and Jay-Z got married before they actually did, so we’ll just have to give this one some time to see if it’s true. This would be Beyonce’s first child, but apparently Jay-Z has been supporting a secrect son he had with a Trinidadian model named Shenelle Scott for several years. Sources say Shenelle and 7-year-old Isa Jael live a quiet life in Trinidad in a $2.5 million home that Jay-Z bought for them after paternity tests proved he was the dad. Reportedly, Shenelle brings Isa Jael to see Jay-Z in New York, whenever she flies there for modeling gigs. A source also says Beyonce has accepted the little boy as her stepson and spent some time with him when they vacationed in France.

It’s looking like Sandra Bullock is pulling an Elin Woods. Sandra Bullock’s team has been silent about marital problems with her husband Jesse James until now. The rumors are that both Sandra and Jesse have been shopping for divorce lawyers but Sandra’s publicist Cheryl Maisel has said that is completely false. Apparently that’s not something she’s considering at the moment. Jesse has essentially admitted to everything saying that he hopes his family can, “one day, find it in their hearts to forgive him”.

It really is OVER between Kim Kardashain and Reggie Bush and sources are spilling the details. According to a friend, Reggie just wasn’t feeling it anymore and Kim has been pushing to get married which Reggie isn’t into. Kim feels like marriage is the next step but Reggie knows that Kim is not the wife he wants. Reggie loves that Kim is motivated and works so much but he would prefer someone that isn’t into the Hollywood scene and wants to be a stay-at-home mom. Reggie decided not to string her along anymore and told her that she deserves to be with someone that can make the commitment that she wants.

It’s  official, Beyonce’s dad is a new dad! That DNA test we talked about awhile back has taken place and confirmed that Mathew Knowles is the father of Alexsandra Wright’s brand new baby boy. It’s not a huge surprise because Mathew agreed last October to pay $8,200 a month when the paternity suit was filed. Their lawyers are now working out official child support details.

5.What is up with Brad Pitt’s beard? At first we all thought it was because of some character he’d be playing, but if that was the case, this has been the longest film shoot ever. But now we know that scraggly beard isn’t for a role. It’s because Brad’s bored. He says, “There’s no other reason than that.” Bored?? With six kids and Angelina Jolie??

4. Beyonce has a new baby brother! The DNA test proved it’s true — her daddy was catting around with another woman, and the result was a baby boy named Nixon. Mathew Knowles and Alexsandra Wright are now in the final stages of negotiating a settlement for Nixon’s child support.

3.The men and women of “Jersey Shore” have been prepping themselves for season two. A soruce says Vinny’s been hitting the gym every day and that Mike has been working hard to keep “The Situation” a situation. His agent says DJ Pauly D is in the best shape of his life thanks to a lot of GTL — that’s “gym, tanning and laundry.” Besides his body, Pauly D is seriously committed to his hair. Two cases of hair gel — just for his use — have been shipped to the Miami house ahead of his arrival. Snooki’s tweeted that she’s been “shopping for the necessities” for season two, and by that she means bronzer and hair clips.

2.Why did Michelle “Bombshell” McGee sell the story of her affair with Jesse James for $30K. It wasn’t about the money. It was about revenge. She says Jesse told her he and Sandra Bullock were separated and that once she finished filming “The Blind Side,” he was going to leave Sandra and go public with the separation. But once the movie wrapped, Jesse stayed with Sandra. And he was by her side for all the buildup to her big Oscar win. Michelle was furious when Jesse didn’t do what he said he was going to do, so she went public with the affair.

1. Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush are done for good this time, according to once source who says Reggie just wasn’t feeling it anymore. The source told RadarOnline that Kim’s been pushing for marriage — especially since her sister Khloe got married. But Reggie says he wants a wife who will serve as a support system for him and be a stay-at-home mom for his kids. Reggie loves Kim, but he knows she’s not willing to be that kind of wife and mother. Reggie didn’t want to string Kim along, so he basically told her that she deserves to be with someboyd who can make the commitment she wants.

5. Did you know that Lady Gaga wrote “Telephone” for Britney Spears?? But Britney turned it down and Gaga turned it into a duet for her and Beyonce. But Gaga hasn’t given up. She apparently loves Britney as much as I do and wants to do a duet with Britney as soon as the Monster Ball tour wraps up.

4. Jake Pavelka’s ex-girlfriend says he’s already cheated on Vienna. The woman wishes to remain anonymous for now, but she did give an interview to a some morning show DJ — once she was promised that her voice would be disguised. See….this is where I start to wonder if this woman’s for real or not. Once you get morning DJs involved, there’s no telling. But apparently this woman is going to reveal herself soon, so I guess that’s when we’ll see if she’s the real deal. Anyway, she claims that she and Jake were seeing each other before he left to do “The Bachelor,” and that he was just going to do the show to further his acting career. She says that the day after Jake proposed to Vienna and taping on “The Bachelor” ended, Jake was on the phone with her, telling her he still loved her. She says Jake claimed that the producers of the show forced him to propose to Vienna and that she meant nothing to him.  But Jake and Vienna are sure putting on a good show. She’s moving to LA to be with him as he prepares for “Dancing With The Stars.”

3. Jessica Simpson was on Oprah yesterday to promote her upcoming VH1 show, “The Price of Beauty.” She says after a year of being beaten up for her weight, she’s absolutely comfortable with her body. She says, “I love my curves. I’m not going to ever be size 0, and I don’t want to weigh 90 pounds.” She told Oprah that those infamous mom jeans she wore during the chili cookoff concert were a size 4, and that the biggest she’s ever been is a size 6. (Although one source says Jessica confided to a friend last year that she was upset because she was up to an 8…) Jessica told Oprah she was disappointed with John Mayer for discussing their sex life with “Playboy” magazine. She said, “It was really discouraging because that’s not the John that I knew.” Jessica says he did apologize, but she doesn’t accept it. She says “I don’t resent him. I’m just going to let that go. That part of my life is over.”

2. RadarOnline is reporting that Elin Woods has agreed to move home with Tiger. As of right now, she’s still living in a rental about a mile away from the home they shared until Thanksgiving. A source says that Wednesday, Tiger and Elin were at their home together for about 3 hours and that at one point, Tiger leaned over and kissed Elin on the cheek and they hugged. During that conversation, she agreed to come home, and he’s hoping that will happen this weekend. So… Does this mean he’s already done with therapy in Arizona? One week did the trick? Did I miss something?

1. Lil Wayne STILL hasn’t gone to prison. He was originally supposed to go in February 9, but because he needed some dental work, the judge allowed him to wait until this past Tuesday. So Lil Wayne was ready to show up Tuesday for sentencing and then head straight to Rikers for a year, but a basement fire shut down Manhattan Criminal Court. So instead of going to prison on Tuesday, Lil Wayne went to Madison Square Garden and jumped up on stage with Jay-Z. Afterward, he stopped by the premiere party for “Brooklyn’s Finest.” A source says Lil Wayne showed up with a posse of six, but security wouldn’t let him in. He pitched a fit until one of the movie’s publicists stepped in and let Lil Wayne and his friends inside. Lil Wayne was all ready to head to court yesterday, but at the last minute, court officials announced the courthouse needed to be closed for repairs. So now Lil Wayne doesn’t have to turn himself in until Monday.

Jay Leno better start looking for a new sidekick. Kevin Eubanks is leaving The Tonight Show after 18 years! NBC has yet to confirm the news, but the New York Times is reporting this so it seems the cat is outta the bag. Apparently Kevin has said the he wants a change and a chance for new opportunities. Supposedly he wants to go on tour with a band! No date has been set for his departure but sources are speculating that he is leaving shortly after Leno takes The Tonight Show back from Conan O’Brien on March 1.

Jessica Simpson is on the cover of next month’s Allure magazine and is claiming that she has learned “nothing” from her past relationships. She says that John Mayer didn’t make her go brunette even though he’d like to get credited for it. She says that she still talks to Tony Romo. She says that her next husband will undoubtedly be an artistic type. And how does she feel about turning 30? She says that she thought she would have it figured out by now. She says she thought, “I’m going to be this great pop star, have my songs on the radio, be married, and have babies….But things can be taken away from you. A song can not be played on the radio. An album can not work.”

You are the father…for now. Beyonce’s dad has been ordered to pay child support to mistress Alexsandra Wright. She has been claiming for months that she is positive Matthew Knowles is that father of her child. She says that he even helped her name the baby Nixon. An LA judge has ordered Matthew to pay 8,200 a month as well as all medical costs for the child. They haven’t even had a paternity test! He will be taking one March 1. It seems that he IS the daddy because he hasn’t once denied the rumor and also gave Alexsandra $10,000 back in January to cover other pregnancy costs.
