Apparently $4 million dollars has a way of motivating someone to lose weight. New Weight Watchers spokeswoman Jessica Simpson was spotted leaving a private gym on Thursday, signaling that she's already worried about her weight loss obligations.

The singer, 31, confirmed last week that she's working with the weight loss organization, though she didn't comment on how she planned to do it. She told People that the main focus was health and everything else is a bonus.

"I think anybody who's gone through a pregnancy, after they have the baby, it's like, 'I need to do something about this,'" she said of losing weight. "For me, I really want to do something that is a lifestyle, because in the past, I've been known to yo-yo diet."

The singer's slim-down plan reportedly consists of lots of gym time and no fast food.

"As soon as Jessica heals from the C-section, she is extremely determined to get back in the gym and work out," a source told US Weekly. "She wants to show the world and is excited to do it."

And while junk food might fit in her Weight Watcher's Points Plus diet, it's not exactly nutritious.

"She's breast-feeding Max and wants her to get the best nutrition," a source told that magazine, adding that the Texas native loves Pop-Tarts and Kraft mac 'n' cheese. "She has to cut down on fast food. Besides, it's a great way to jump-start the massive diet ahead."

Jessica Simpson expands to maternity clothes >>

We'll admit we're worried that she's already trying to get back into shape — she only gave birth a few weeks ago. Still, Simpson seems committed to doing it the right way.

"The cool thing about [Weight Watchers] is that it focuses on healthy habits for the long-term ," she wrote on her Facebook page. "I have actually gotten a group of friends together who are going to be doing it with me."

Do you think Jessica Simpson can care for her first child and lose weight without resorting to dangerous methods?

Patti Stanger, of Millionaire Matchmaker fame, can't help but impart her wisdom when the opportunity strikes. The reality television star recently pulled the gorgeous Stacy Keibler aside for a chat at the Simon G. Jewelry Summer Soiree in Las Vegas.

When Patti Stanger bumped into Stacy Keibler on June 2, Us Weekly reports the relationship pro "schooled" the 32-year-old, imparting wisdom about the model's 10-month-relationship with actor George Clooney.

George Clooney better watch his back around Stacy Keibler >>

The print edition of the celebrity magazine reports:

Patti Stanger schooled Stacy Keibler on sealing the deal with her love of 10 months, George Clooney! The Millionaire Matchmaker, 51, took Keibler, 32, aside at the Simon G. Jewelry Summer Soiree in Las Vegas on June 2.

“She gave Stacy a big tip,” a source tells Hot Stuff. “She said that George needs to propose within a year of them being together. Otherwise, she won’t have as strong a chance."

Unfortunately for Stacy Keibler, if George Clooney's past behavior is any indication of where their relationship is headed, it most certainly will not be down the aisle. Though their relationship has been going strong since July of 2011, the 51-year-old Academy Award winner swore off marriage after his four-year stint as husband to actress Talia Balsam ended.

It was easy to make fun of Teen Mom star Amber Portwood's legal troubles — why couldn't she just get "it" together? Now we can see that she's an addict with severe emotional issues exacerbated by her reality stardom.

"In my situation, I felt in the program there were a lot of eyes on me. And it was uncomfortable," Portwood told E! News on Thursday. "I was not using my anti-psych medication even."

"It's like every time you go out to eat, you know, people are staring at you, talking, and it's hard. You get paranoid… it's not normal, to always be paranoid."

A Madison County, Indiana judge sentenced the MTV reality star to five years in prison earlier this week after she copped to using prescription medications during a court-mandated rehab program. What we didn't know is that she tried to commit suicide for a second time by taking a bunch of pills.

"I took 30 Suboxone [pills] within three days," she said of the incident. Her on again, off again boyfriend, Gary Shirley, had to call 911 afterward.

Can Amber Portwood change her life and be a good mom? >>

"The depression took over. I'd just take four to five at a time underneath my tongue and nod out. I had more than addiction problems. I had, you know, mental problems, too." She's previously admitted to suffering from both bipolar and dissociative disorders.

Now, she feels that going to prison will be the best thing for her and her daughter. Three-year-old Leah is now in Shirley's custody.

"You know, I was very depressed, all alone, all bitter at everybody. I felt like that wasn't the life I wanted to live, I felt like I'd rather do my time, and get it over with, and make the best out of the situation that's been handed to me," she said, adding that she's going to be constructive while serving her time.

"I'm going to take some classes, I'm going to get my GED, take as many programs as I can. You know, just try to better myself for when I do get out and not stay in prison… I'll be off the drugs, I'll have an education to get me a job, you have to think of the positives in this negative story," the reality star said.

Here's hoping this is the best thing for her — and her family's — future.

Many of us remember Chris Crocker, the teen who gained her 15 minutes of fame through a tearful YouTube video entitled: “Leave Britney Alone.”

“How dare anyone out there make fun of Britney, after all she’s been through,” she cried in the video.

Crocker may have been speaking more about her own life in the video, having been a bullied teen. She grew up gay in a small town in Tennessee, and her grandma pulled her out of school for fear of her safety.

Crocker’s story has been turned into a documentary about her discovery of how social media impacts people and how they interact with others.

"There are those who entertain and there are those who observe," says Crocker.

Part of this social media world includes bloggers and those who comment on the things she does.

The documentary is shot by Crocker, who self-identifies as a woman. In one of her home movies, her grandma says, "I can't realize you're a girl when you are standing here looking like a guy."

Crocker’s grandparents raised her, but her mother is still in the picture.

“The film also spotlights Crocker's relationship with his homeless mother, Tanya, who gave birth to him when she was 14,” said HBO in a press release. “An Iraq War veteran, she suffers from a substance abuse problem and post-traumatic stress syndrome, but accepts and loves her son for who he is, as he does her.”

Crocker said she loves her mom even though she has gone through many hardships.

"[I] saw some of my younger mom in Britney. And I was drawn to her. It was familiar to me."

The documentary is titled Me @ the Zoo, the title of the first video ever uploaded to YouTube. It was directed by Chris Moukarbel and Valerie Veatch.

The movie debuts June 25 on HBO and is part of HBO Documentary Films.

Singer Lauryn Hill might be going from a Refugee All-Star to an all-star prisoner now that she's charged in a New Jersey court with failing to file three years' worth of income tax returns.

According to court papers, Hill didn't file returns in 2005, 2006 and 2007. She reportedly earned about $1.8 million during those three years and faces a year in prison for each year she didn't file a return, plus $300,000 in fines.

That's a lot of cash.

The mom of six has reportedly faced financial and emotional problems over the past several years. Her rumored nervous breakdown was cited as the reason she stopped recording, but Hill told NPR in 2010 that her decision didn't stem from one thing.

"There were a number of different reasons," she explained of her absence, adding that she planned to get back to performing. "But partly, the support system that I needed was not necessarily in place. There were things about myself, personal-growth things, that I had to go through in order to feel like it was worth it."

"Oftentimes, the machine can overlook the need to take care of the people who produce the sounds that have a lot to do with the health and well-being of society... And it's important that people be given the time that they need to go through, to grow, so that the consciousness level of the general public is properly affected," she added.

Hill is due in federal court in New Jersey on June 29 to answer he charges. Here's hoping she can get it figured out, otherwise she'll be joining Wesley Snipes and Ja Rule in the tax evaders' big house.

The last time director Robert Zemeckis put an Oscar-winning actor aboard an ill-fated plane, audiences were treated to a masterful performance from Tom Hanks in the isolated but brilliant Cast Away.

Will Denzel Washington fare any better now that he’s taking Flight with Zemeckis?

Flight marks visionary director Zemeckis’ first film since 2009’s A Christmas Carol, the motion capture holiday experiment with Jim Carrey in multiple roles. This looks more focused, with Washington playing a pilot who straps in for a routine flight, manages the take off and… well, things don’t go as planned.

Here’s the first official trailer. Watch for yourself:

Obviously, Washington’s heroics in the cockpit of a damaged plane automatically call to mind Capt. Sullenberger and the “Miracle on the Hudson” from a few years back.

But Flight holds an ace up its sleeve, a plot twist that literally turns the story upside down. Was Washington’s character drunk at the time of the flight? And did the alcohol in his system possibly cause the accident that he heroically prevented?

Washington’s gut-wrenching performance alone is reason to check out Flight — Zemeckis’ first live-action feature film since he stranded Hanks on that island in Cast Away.

But then you add the thrilling aerial scenes showcased in the trailer, and you surround Washington with jaw-dropping talent like Don Cheadle and John Goodman? Yeah, we're lining up to grab a ticket right now.

Flight won’t be in theaters until Nov. 2. But what do you think of the first trailer? Popcorn thriller? Or Oscar contender? Let us know your thoughts.

In the new romantic comedy with a side of adventure, The Babymakers, one couple decides to take their fertility into their own hands.

Your sperm are drunk...

After years of putting off having kids, Tommy, played by Paul Schneider of Lars and the Real Girl and Water for Elephants, decides it’s time to pull the plug. He’s finally ready to get his wife Audrey, played by Olivia Munn of I Don’t Know How She Does It and the TV show Perfect Couples, pregnant.

But after trying… and trying… and trying, it seems Tommy is falling short in the sperm department. They go to the doctor and soon discover that Tommy's sperm count is beyond low. That's when our fearless hero has to take matters into his own hands.

I'm not robbing a sperm bank...

Oh yes, you are. Having left a deposit in a sperm bank years ago, Tommy now has one more shot to get his manhood back. He decides, after much trepidation, that he must steal his last bag of sperm from the bank, and the couple who has already paid for it.

In order to do this, Tommy must round up his best buddies to help him crack into the bank and steal the baby juice before the other couple gets it. Can he do it in time...? We hope so. At least, there doesn't seem to be any other way to stop the madness in this movie.

Scotty McCreery may have learned multi-tasking from American Idol.

The 18-year-old singer picked up his first Country Music Television Award Wednesday night and jumped on a plane right after.

To party? To leave for tour? To shoot a movie?

Nope, Scotty had to fly home so he could graduate from high school.

McCreery, who is from North Carolina, graduated with honors from Garner Magnet High School. The ceremony took place at the Raleigh Convention Center.

Scotty won the 10th season of American Idol more than a year ago, on May 25, 2011. He stuck with mostly country songs on the show, and released his debut album in October.

The album, Clear as Day, has already been certified platinum.

The singer brought friends to the awards with him and they were all flying home after.

"It's like eight of us kids and their families, we're all getting together,” he told Country Music Television. “We're gonna get some Bojangles. It's the best fried chicken back home."

McCreery won the Country Music Award for USA Weekend Breakthrough Video of the Year for his song The Trouble with Girls.

The Band Perry, a band McCreery toured with this year, presented the award before their performance Wednesday night. McCreery seemed more shocked than anyone else when he won because of the talented musicians he was up against.

He was up against Lauren Alaina, Brantley Gilbert, Pistol Annies, Thompson Square and Hunter Hayes for the award.

“Great night at the #CMTAwards!” he tweeted Wednesday night. “Huge thanks to all the fans for putting in the votes, and CMT for playing the videos!”

But then, just eight hours later he tweeted “Ive enjoyed these last 4 years.. wouldnt trade any of them for the world.” 

According to Taste of Country, McCreery plans to attend North Carolina University in the fall as well as continue his music career.

Less than a month after the 11th season of American Idol wrapped up, winner Phillip Phillips is just recovering from surgery.

The 21-year-old singer had considered quitting the show at one point because his kidney wasn't functioning correctly. He had been battling kidney stones all season, and said he came close to quitting because he knew he had to get the surgery at some point.

"Surgery went well," a rep for the singer told E! News. "He's resting and will be ready for the Idol tour kickoff in July."

There have been rumors he may have to miss some dates on the tour, but missing those dates is probably better than having to quit the show before it was over.

"I had some bad days and I had some pretty good days. It was rough at times and there were a couple of times I thought about going ahead and getting out and getting the surgery done," Phillip told E! News in May. "I came close to almost dropping out to get the surgery done, but my doctors helped me out a lot through it."

Phillips won the 11th season on May 23, 2011 after 132 million votes were cast, a record for the show. Jessica Sanchez was the runner up. The show before the finale had the two in a sing-off, which was watched by almost 15 million people.

The surgery took place on Wednesday, which gives him less than a month to recover.

"The recovery's probably two to four weeks," Phillips’ dad said before his surgery surgery. "He's healthy, he's good. His kidneys are good. I can't wait for America and the whole world to see him. He's going to have some fun."

The nationwide American Idol tour will kick off July 6 in Detroit and runs through Sept. 11.

Taco Bell is synonymous with words like value, supreme and grande but not necessarily upscale cuisine or fine dining. With their new menu, they're aiming to change that perception.

Fresh fast food

On July 5, Taco Bell will unveil their new Cantina menu in hopes of competing with the likes of Chipotle Mexican Grill and expanding their customer base. So as not to lose their existing customer base, who clearly love their classic items like burrito supremes and mexi-melts, the current menu will go unchanged.

Fast but fresh

Miami chef Lorena Garcia has been collaborating with Taco Bell since 2010 to create the Cantina menu. Ingredients like fresh grilled corn, whole black beans, cilantro rice and Hass avocado guacamole will be showcased in Taco Bell's new menu, all at value prices of less than $5 per item. Eating a healthier burrito bowl might make you feel better about those three gorditas you gobbled down.

Still not sold on fast food? Make homemade tacos instead >>

Big change

For a fast food chain that recently sold more than 100 million Doritos Locos Tacos in roughly 10 weeks, this new menu may seem like an unnecessary move. Why fix something that isn't broken? But clearly there is a need to compete with other fast-food Mexican-style restaurants that offer fresher ingredients. And although Taco Bell had a better than expected first quarter this year, they have previously been posting low sales numbers, perhaps due to some of the bad press involving salmonella and lawsuits over their meat.

Charlie Sheen's rant is documented for all to hear, thanks to a bevy of cameras filming the actor losing his cool Wednesday night outside of the Staples Center. Put earmuffs on the little ones and take a gander at the cursing blue-streak let out by the actor!

All was well at the Stanley Cup game until Charlie Sheen stepped outside for a smoke. "Out" being the operative word there -- exiting the building and therefore forfeiting his chance to watch the rest of the game. Either Charlie Sheen was not aware of the Staples Center's no re-entry policy, or he expected to receive special treatment.

Charlie Sheen's foot fetish: Hammertoes are a no-go >>

The curse-land Charlie Sheen rant burst out when a female security guard upheld the facility's policy.

"You know what?" the actor shot at her. "F****** blow my balls, all right, you f****** asshole."

Speaking to others watching it all go down, Charlie Sheen continued, "Have common sense and common courtesy gone in society? That was what I was trying to impress upon her."

"Bad juju. Clash of the silly," he added. "Go Thunder!"

Lil Wayne denied entry, lets out lil whine >>

Making the situation worse were fans heckling the actor. TMZ reports one fans shouted to Charlie Sheen, "You ever done bath salts?" He shot back, "Would you ask me that at a f****** dinner party you moron ... go f*** yourself."

Another witnessing Charlie Sheen's rant shouted, "Charlie, f*** all the hos tonight." His sense of humor apparently not entirely gone, the Anger Management star replied, "I thought your mother and sister weren't available."

Though Charlie Sheen's free use of expletives may set him apart from fellow celebrities, he isn't the only one having issues getting into sports arenas. Less than a week ago Lil Wayne whined about not being let into an NBA game, despite not having a ticket.

"Was going to go to the Thunder game tonight but was denied by the team to be in their arena," the rapper tweeted. "Wow. Smh. Go Spurs!"

Officials for the Staples Center explained Thursday their policy is designed for the "safety of fans," and without anything resembling an apology to Charlie Sheen added, "We regret that any patron would direct such abusive language at one of our employees."

Was the Staples Center right to deny re-entry despite Charlie Sheen's rant?

After their less-than-fairy-tale history, many were shocked when Chris Brown showed up on Rihanna’s new album.

He appears on a remix of her song "Birthday Cake" from her album Talk that Talk. But conversely, she also shows up on his new single, "Turn Up the Music."

Rihanna told Esquire UK she did not expect the backlash she has received from collaborating with her once boyfriend.

The magazine’s interviewer asked why she would go back with someone who “put you in the hospital.”

“The whole thing caught me a little off-guard to be honest… especially the amount of… negative attention,” the singer responded. “Because it never occurred to me how this was going to be a problem, you know. It really didn’t.”

The magazine reminded her the public sometimes has a hard time separating her personal and professional life and that they might have a hard time understanding them “getting back together.”

“In a completely professional environment,” Rihanna responded. “And on a completely professional note. I mean, if I went back to him [as a girlfriend], then that’s a whole different discussion. And if I ever do, then that’s something that y’all have to talk to me about when -- if --  that ever happens. Until then, look at it for what it is. I think a lot of people jumped to an assumption that was incorrect and they ended up looking stupid.”

The lyrics have a sexual tone, which has been causing even more controversy and rumors about the former couple getting back together.

“That was the tone before he was even on the record,” Rihanna said. “You think it was going to be about hopscotch or jump rope?”

Rihanna said that no matter what the controversy, the feedback has been mostly positive.

“Some love it, some hate it, some love it but still hate that we did it,” she said. “But the response in the end has been incredible.”

“In my mind, it was just music.”

Paris Jackson's masked childhood was a mystery for many years, but now the daughter of late singer Michael Jackson is sharing exactly why she and her two brothers were never allowed in public without their faces covered. Apparently, Michael had a plan.

Chatting with Oprah Winfrey during her Oprah's Next Chapter interview, Paris Jackson spoke openly about her childhood.

"Do you remember when you were little... younger, and when you would go out in public your face would be covered?" Oprah asked the teen. "What did you think about that?"

Paris Jackson is still mourning her dad >>

A soft-spoken Paris Jackson replied, "I was really confused, like I didn’t get why I was wearing a mask… But I understand it now, why dad would want our face to be covered -- like when we went out without him we wouldn't be recognized."

Speaking of Michael Jackson's wish for Paris and her two brothers to have a normal life she shared, "He told us that when he was younger, he didn’t really have a childhood and he wanted us to have that… Chuck E. Cheese and Toys ‘R’ Us were our favorite places to go."

Paris Jackson's acting dreams: Dammit, says Janet >>

The full interview with Michael Jackson's 14-year-old daughter is set to air on OWN this Sunday. Check out a clip of Paris Jackson's mask discussion with Oprah below, courtesy of The Today Show.

It seems Robert Pattinson has been having a hard time keeping his opinions to himself lately.

The actor is apologizing for not just one, but two, recent outbursts.

The first came when he got into an argument with Adele over being famous. He had a recent revelation about interacting with “civilians," and told her she had an easier time interacting with people in everyday situations.

The New York Post reports that he told Canadian talk show host George Stroumboulopoulos that she responded by saying:

“'You do realize I am like the biggest-selling female artist ever?'”

He tells the host “And I just for some reason just decided to get into an argument with her.”

He doesn’t know why he decided to bring up the issue.

"I just, for some reason, just decided to get into an argument with her about this," Pattinson said. "I woke up the next morning regretting every word of it."

He goes on to say that he has always been socially awkward, and had a vision that when he got famous he would meet a bunch of famous people, but not much has changed in that way.

He still continues to be just as shy and interacts with people as little as he did before he was famous.

He continues the interview with Stroumboulopoulos by saying he also apologized for his new “douchebaggery” in an interview at Cannes.

"I was really fighting to not look pretentious for years, and someone gives you one inch of the possibility of being pretentious,” he tells the host. “And you're like grabbing it so hard, going around being the biggest douchebag.”

In the interview, he went on to say he feels he has reined in that pretentiousness and he feels he is back to normal.

Pattinson was at Cannes promoting his new movie Cosmopolis, which comes out on Aug. 17.

On Wednesday, we told you about John Mayer’s interview with Rolling Stone magazine about Taylor Swift.

The two had apparently dated briefly in 2009, and Mayer felt that Swift’s song Dear John was not only about him, but it was completely unfair of her to not give him warning.

"I never got an e-mail. I never got a phone call," Mayer said in the interview. "I was really caught off guard, and it really humiliated me at a time when I'd already been dressed down. I mean, how would you feel if, at the lowest you've ever been, someone kicked you even lower?"

The song blamed Mayer for taking advantage of the young singer.

“Don’t you think nineteen’s too young, to be played by your dark, twisted games? When I loved you so, I should've known.”

Things got worse Tuesday night in Los Angeles, as the two showed up at the same place at the same time.

Talk about awkward.

According to the New York Post, the run-in happened at Tower Bar in West Hollywood. A witness said when Swift walked in and saw Mayer, she asked, very loudly, to be moved to the other side of the restaurant.

"The bar's usually an oasis of calm and privacy for celebrities and power players,” the witness said. “But this was drama central."

The two met in 2009 when Swift collaborated with Mayer on a song on his album Battle Studies. He even likened her to Stevie Nicks in an interview with MTV just before the album’s release.

In the song Dear John, Taylor Swift seemed to foreshadow John’s playing the victim.

“And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors who don't understand. And I'll look back in regret how I ignored when they said 'Run as fast as you can.'"

Donald Trump is one busy man.

This week he has already crowned a new Miss USA and threatened to sue Miss Pennsylvania. And now he has announced he hopes to build a major film and TV studio in Florida.

“Trump wants to develop a giant production facility in south Miami-Dade County on 800 acres near the Homestead Air Reserve Base,” the Los Angeles Times reports.

Trump's legal counsel says the facility would be twice as large as Universal Studios and would employ “thousands.”

The proposal is now in the hands of the city attorney, having received anonymous approval from the county commissioners.

Trump is now seen as a regular in the entertainment industry, but before The Apprentice he was largely in real estate. He still owns and manages many buildings.

It seems his two careers will be tied together perfectly with this new project.

“While not a hotbed for film production,” the Los Angeles Times said, “Florida does offer a 20 percent tax credit to filmmakers and is drawing more interest from Hollywood.”

There is no word on exactly what the studio will be used for, but if Trump is involved, chances are filmmakers will start flocking to Florida.

The project comes at the right time to get Trump’s mind off the battle he is currently in with a contestant from Miss USA.

Miss Pennsylvania, Sheena Monnin, has come out publicly saying she felt the pageant was rigged.

The contestant had posted on her Facebook page that a fellow contestant knew some outcomes of the pageant before it had even started.

Trump’s lawyer today responded by telling her that Trump, and the Miss Universe Organization, would not sue her if she apologized to him in writing.

Monnin has resigned her post, but Trump doesn’t seem too ruffled. He instead said she is just a sore loser.

Miami-Dade County may take heed from Miss Pennsylvania and do what Trump says.
