Is it Madonna-bashing week or something?
First, her Madgesty’s charity Running Malawi was under fire for syphoning money out of Gucci for Kabbalah. And now, her monthly drinking water expenses are under attack!
The Queen of Pop spends $10,000 per month on specially blessed Kabbalah water for her and her family of five, reports In Touch. A small bottle of the Kabbalah-blessed water costs $5/pop.
“Madonna drinks a lot of water — that’s one of her fitness secrets,” her pal says. “And this is the only stuff she will touch.”
Madonna turns 50 in August. 50!

Actress/comedian Roseanne Barr has made some wild accusations in her latest blog about talk show host Oprah Winfrey and Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama. Here’s a summary of what she said (with spelling and grammar fixed):
– Barack is an empty suit selling “hope” in lieu of Truth– Oprah helped to elect Arnold Schwarzenegger. I have no doubt that she voted her purse by doing this, as she is a large land owner in California, and that ilk fears Dems because they do not want to pay their “fair share” of Cali tax.– Oprah has given us Dr. Phil. If that was not offensive enough to decent thinking people, now she brings us Obama. He has no ideas, no plan and nothing to add other than the cynical pacification of the masses with bedtime stories about hope.– Oprah, you play the race card and the gender card too. You are a closeted republican and chose Barack because you do not like other women who actually stand for something to working American Women besides glamour, angels, Hollywood and dieting!– It is historical that Oprah, beloved of women, chooses a flashy man with small credentials over a seasoned woman politician with 35 years of experience…and sells that to the female demographic who look to her for inspiration!
OUCH!!!!!

Blogs up the wazoo have been claiming that Pamela Anderson is proceeding with her divorce from Rick Salomon and that she’s pregnant with his love child!
Earlier this morning, Pam posted a simple “No” on her official website. Was she addressing the divorce? The pregnancy? Both? Neither?

Avril Lavigne is pregnant, according to radio host Zack Taylor.
The 23-year-old Canadian pop rock princess is reportedly 1.5 months pregnant, which means Avril’s expecting her baby in August.
This would be Ms. Lavigne’s and Sum 41 husband Deryck Whibley’s first child together. The couple celebrate their second wedding anniversary in July.
FYI: Avril recently reached a settlement with ’70s rock band the Rubinoos in a lawsuit accusing her of plagiarizing her hit song, “Girlfriend.” The settlement, however, doesn’t necessarily admit to copyright infringement.
UPDATE: Avril’s label rep tells Us Weekly, “It’s not true.”

Kate Middleton celebrates her 26th birthday without her royal lover at the Tom Aikens restaurant in London’s Chelsea on Wednesday night. The birthday girl was accompanied by her parents Carole and Michael and younger sister Pippa.

Earlier in the day, the birthday girl worked it out in a plaid skirt near her West London home.

Happy Birthday, Kate Middleton

Harry Potter Joe Jonas of the pop rock group Jonas Brothers pays a visit to the medical office of a plastic surgeon on the Upper West Side of New York City on Thursday. He was taking care of (or probably removing) the stitches he has on his forehead–he tripped and hit his forehead on a grate at a recent Atlantic City concert.
Gotta keep that pretty face of his perfect!
Joe, 18, wore his favorite black fur-trimmed coat and white rock star shades. He was escorted to and from his SUV by the same burly bodyguard that’s been protecting all of the Jonas Brothers.
Ryan Seacrest debuted the Jonas Brothers‘ latest single “When You Look Me In the Eyes” on KIIS FM in LA. Listen to their on-air interview here (mp3).

American Idol alum Carrie Underwood is in the January/February issue of Women’s Health magazine.
Interview snip-snips below!
On Tony Romo: “He was not my boyfriend and we were never dating. The more I screamed ‘We’re not dating!’ the more headlines claimed that we were a couple or that I was crying because he was out with another girl. We’re really good friends, we hang out a lot, and we’re close…well, friends smooch occasionally.”
On being a vegetarian: “There was a traumatic incident that made me stop eating beef…And it hit me that these cute little animals that were running around playing would become someone’s dinner. Eating them made me feel guilty.”
On wanting to be a news anchor: “I love being on camera. And I love knowing what’s going on in the world. Diane Sawyer is my favorite. She never seems to lower herself to get the job done. She just always carries herself well. I really admire her.”
On her weakness for ’80s hair metal: “I remember singing Motley Crue’s remake of ‘Smokin’ in the Boys’ Room’ in front of the mirror. That was the age of the real ‘rock star.’ I would like to have experienced that first-hand.”
