Jennifer Lopez: Highest Paid Celebrity Judges

Earlier this week, the NY Post reported that the British singer was approached by AI executives to see if she’d be interested in joining Idol – either alongside Jennifer Lopez or as a replacement if J.Lo leaves.

Cole appeared in the first few episodes of X Factor before being dumped by Simon Cowell. She was criticized for lacking stage presence and for her thick English accent, sources said.

We’re well into our commitment to summer excellence. No fitness regimen is complete without toning to get those great tank top-worthy arms. Want arms like Madonna, Kelly Ripa and Eva Mendes? The trick to great arms is high reps and resistance. From arms curls to plank holds and down dogs, work out with a familiar friend on GaiamTV.com and get motivated to sculpt your arms this summer.

Nothing beats a simple push up to tone the biceps, triceps and shoulders.

Remember to:

• Keep your arms shoulder width apart, palms flat
• Control your movements – lower slowly and rise slowly
• Forget counting reps – instead, continue for 1-3 minutes or until you can’t go anymore – then add one more!
• Don’t forget to breathe through each movement

For more of a challenge, try the ball version above — or if you are a beginner, simply push against the wall — and watch your beautiful arms emerge!

Need more to stay motivated? Check out GaiamTV.com’s vast selection of great workouts and yoga videos. My suggestions are: The Situation Workout, Total Body Sculpting Bar, and Advance Yoga.

And of course, always be conscious of the inside to radiate on the outside. Check out The Truth About Gluten & Dairy.

Good luck and stay inspired!

Brit replied: “Tempting,” prompting Madonna to tease, “Are you gonna make me work for this?”

“Why of course!” responded Spears.

We’d be up for seeing those two ladies lock lips again — but these aren’t the only two gals who’ve made headlines with same-sex smooches. From Sandra Bullock to Mila Kunis, look back at real-life celebrity girl-on-girl kisses.

Relive Britney and Madonna’s famous kiss in the video below. (See the kiss at 3:50.)

The TV spot in question, which leaked online yesterday, features the pop legend writhing around in a low-cut corset and fishnet stockings. Given Madonna’s knack for controversy, we’re not surprised this bosom-baring ad is making heads turn.

Do you think her ad is too racy for TV? Cast your vote in the poll now!

But this isn’t even Madonna’s most recent scandal! Reportedly, the singer’s new video for “Girls Gone Wild” was too raunchy that YouTube has slapped a viewing age restriction on the racy vid. See for yourself in the clip below!

Before the fame, she was just another girl with a dream. To get there, she had to work her way to the top — but what pays the bills isn’t always so glamorous. Can you imagine being served a cup of coffee and a pastry by Lady M? Back in the day, that’s exactly what she used to do at her oddest job — at Dunkin’ Doughnuts!

A number of other stars have revealed their odd jobs too, click through the gallery to find out who worked where. You may have more in common with your favorite star than you think!

As for Madonna, those days are long behind her. Most recently, behind-the-scenes video has emerged of a kiss between the “Girl Gone Wild” songstress and Nicki Minaj on set of their music video for “Gimme All Your Luvin.’” The video also shows Madonna serenading Nicki for her 29th birthday–right before planting a big ole smooch: 

Behind-the-scenes video has emerged of a kiss between the “Girl Gone Wild” songstress and Nicki Minaj on set of their music video for “Gimme All Your Luvin’”–which also features M.I.A. The video shoot took place back in December and, initially, it was Nicki’s tweet that sent fans abuzz:

“OH MY f’ingggg Gahhhh!!!!! MADONNA jus kissed me!!!!! On the lips!!!!!!! It felt sooooo good. Soooo soft!!!! *passes out* aaahhhhh!!!!!!!!!”

Exclusively to Yahoo! Music, the video also shows Madonna serenading Nicki for her 29th birthday–right before planting a big ole smooch. By the look on Nicki’s dolled-up face, she was not expecting such a treat. Check out the video above of the same-sex encounter.

Fans can recall perhaps the biggest kiss of Madonna’s career: her tongue wrestling with Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera at the 2003 MTV Music Awards. Relive their iconic VMA performance and make out session:

The sexy escapade couldn’t have come at a better time as Madonna’s latest studio effort MDNA dropped this week to mixed reviews. She also recently premiered her all-too-rauncy video for “Girl Gone Wild.” Haven’t seen it yet? Take a seat and check it out:

Celebuzz asked our Facebook readers if they think she should still wear revealing outfits, and we got some interesting responses.

Marta C. said: yeah. It’s HER life. She has this “teenage spirit” and it’s okay, everyone decides how to live their life. she feels like a teenager? what’s the problem? :))

Joanne B. said: no. Cause she has children. Not fair to them.

Monica D. said: If I had the money to look like that at that age I wouldn’t be hiding it either. She is still hot like she was back then.

Ummy K. said: you only live once, let her enjoy her life, half of the people that criticize her they secretly wish to be her, or at least live a stress free life like hers.

Angelina L. said: At least she is covered up but she should dress her age!! She is not in her 20s and it looks a bit ridiculous!! Just saying!!

Jacqueline R. said: I dont understand because she is a woman the article has to state “53 year old” The media doesn’t start off with a mans age! You never see “50 year old George Clooney”! Sheesh!

What do YOU guys think? Keep the debate going in the comments!

It comes as no surprise that Madonna went for a risque outfit for her Miami appearance at the Ultra Music Festival over the weekend, but was the butt-baring fashion a little much for a 53-year-old mother-of-four?! The icon stepped out wearing fishnets, high-waisted SUPER short-shorts, and a black t-shirt that read the name of her album MDNA. She topped off the outlandish ensemble with a pair of lace-up heels that were tied up to her knees. 

Some may say this is a bit much even for someone half her age, but what do you think? Is this age appropriate for Madonna? Let us know in the poll and state your case in the comments. 

Madonna was at Miami’s Bayfront Park to introduce DJ Avicii, and according to London Daily Mail, she hinted at drug use. While riling up the crowd, the singer said, “How many people in this crowd have seen Molly?” Molly is sometimes a term used when referring to Ecstasy. The singer added, “Are you ready to dance? Are you ready to make some noise?”

Meanwhile, her daughter Lourdes may be in a bit of trouble when her mom gets a look some new paps pics. The 15-year-old was snapped by the paparazzi smoking a cigarette, and hanging with the guys. We don’t think this smoking habit is going to go over very well with her mom, who is reportedly quite strict with her daughter.  

We now know (and love) Adam Scott as Ben Wyatt on NBC’s Parks and Recreation, but before he became an adorable leading man, he had quite the unglamorous gig at Johnny Rockets. In the latest issue of Details magazine, he opened up about his (very) short-lived stint at the 1950s themed diner.

So, exactly how long did the Friends With Kids star last?

One day! Adam said:

“I resigned in disgrace from Johnny Rockets after one day. The guy was like, ‘All right, so here’s where the fries are,’ and then this fifties song came on the jukebox and he’s like, ‘Oh, excuse me for a second,’ and ran over to the waiters and busboys and they started singing and doing a little dance. And then he runs back and he’s like, ‘Sorry— every time this song comes on, we all get together and sing!’ And I was like, ‘If you’ll excuse me for a second . . .’ and I left. I was in uniform— a paper hat, the whole thing. Never picked that paycheck up.”

Adam wouldn’t be the only star to work an odd job before hitting the big time. Click the pics above to check out other celeb odd jobs!

]]> Madonna is pouring her blood, sweat, and tears into her upcoming tour — literally!

This week, the Queen of Pop got a little banged up when rehearsing for her upcoming tour and lived to tell fans about it. Madonna took it to her Facebook to share photos of her injuries, which includes a cut lip and multiple bruises on her leg and butt. Ouch!

Hopefully Madonna won’t work herself too hard as she’s set to be on the road for most of 2012. The “Give Me All Your Luvin’” singer is currently gearing up for her world tour which kicks off in Tel Aviv on May 29. The tour is set to wrap up on November 29 in Miami, Florida.

She was on to something since her line “Material Girl” with daughter Lourdes “Lola” Leon, has just released their spring 2012 “Lucky Stars” campaign which features the three winners-Samantha Titus, Katrina (Tina) Arandjelovic, and Kimberly Perry-from the search for the next “Material Girl.” 

Along with the digital and outdoor campaign and in-store in Macy’s display (the line is exclusive to the department store), the duo also debuted the “Making of The Next Material Girl” video, which is available on the Material Girl’s Facebook page, and features behind the scenes footage for the search for the next Material Girl. Madonna, Lola, and Kelly Osbourne helped with picking the winners as well as a panel of guest judges including Perez Hilton. 

Are you going to buy clothing from the new “Material Girl” collection? Let us know in the comments below. 

Not only was the move a surprise, but it was one she does not approve of!

“I wasn’t happy about it,” Madonna added. “I understand it’s punk rock and everything, but to me there was such a feeling of love and good energy, and positivity it seemed negative. It’s one of the those things, it’s such a teenager, irrelevant thing to do…there was such a feeling of love and unity there what was the point? It was just out of place.”

In her Celebuzz Q&A series, Jane Velez-Mitchell said the stunt was “called stealing the spotlight.”

During the performance, the 53-year-old singer debuted her new single, “Give Me All Your Luvin,” during a set that also included classic hits “Vogue,” “Music,” “Express Yourself” and “Like a Prayer.”

Do you think M.I.A.’s middle-finger moment was a halftime fumble? Sound off in the comments! 

In other, more terrifying Madonna news, a man who was jailed for stalking and making repeated death threats against the Material Girl escaped from a mental hospital. Police said today that the 54-year-old Robert Dewey Hoskins “is a very psychotic man when not taking his medication and has very violent tendencies.” 

A manhunt is currently underway to find him.

Nicki Minaj, M.I.A., LMFAO, and Cee Lo Green joined Madonna for her first Super Bowl appearance. Watch the halftime show below.

While their performance was unforgettable, we’ve decided to look back at real celeb cheerleaders like Cameron Diaz, Kendall Jenner and Fergie, who were doing herkies and toe-touches for the home team way before they were famous. (Heck, even funnywoman Amy Poehler was a cheerleader at one point!)

Just like a dream, Madonna was everything she seemed during her Halftime Superbowl performance! The Celebuzz readers have spoken on how they thought the Material Girl did on stage!

The 53-year-old really worked the crowd with her amazing dance moves and brought out some oldies but goodies by singing her famous hits “Vogue” and “Like a Prayer.” Madonna was joined by singers Cee Lo Green, M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj for the very entertaining show.

What did the Celebuzz readers have to say about Madonna’s big show?

Elizabeth Treece Orton- “I think her performance was awesome she collaborated with so many diff people…. she is one of a kind.”

Charlene Rotenberg Mandelbaum- “She fascinates me. Her face, her body, her moves, her presence: she is the ultimate entertainer.”

Andrea Halpern- “lets face it at 50 something and on the stage in great shape,,she is amazing,,a stellar performer…u dont want to watch me up there!!!”

Taryn Perry- “I love madonna but vogueing with gladiators was terrible. Loved like a prayer. Wish performers didn’t lip sync so much.”

Lisa Herendeen- “Other than the lip synching, and the cheer leader outfits, it was good.”

Alice Walsh- “I was embarrassed for her watching it, seriously act your age.. Like a prayer was ok but went really gospel.. hmmm. Nicki Minaj would have done an amazing job by herself as the half time entertainment.”

Barbara Dill- “I enjoyed it!! Loved LMFAO!! I thought “Like A Prayer” was amazing!! All In all a very good half-time show!!!”

Anna Muc- “it was such a great show,Madonna still has to moves and her voice was good not bad for a 53 year old rocker !!GO ROCK ON MADONNA !!TOUGH GIRL FROM THE MIDWEST!!”

Norma J Haun- Nope .. She’s good but it could have been better

Mary Borden Abraham- “Underwhelmed.”

Rhonda Michelle Aldrich- “Could have been better! But was good!”

Pily Ghomez- “In your face, Gaga! Madonna’s the Queen.”

Tamarind Day- “Enjoyed it. Loved it. Amazing. You always get your money’s worth with Madonna. A great entertainer.”

From LMFAO to Cee Lo Green to MIA and Nicki Minaj, this year’s Sunday night show was one to remember. The 53-year-old Queen of Pop started the show with her go-to hit song “Vogue,” but that was only the beginning!

She jumped on the shoulders of one of the LMFAO frontmen, played cheerleader with MIA and Nicki, sang “Like a Prayer” with a full chorus and Cee Lo and danced around an unbelievable tightrope show. 

Also doing a phenomenal job at the Super Bowl was Kelly Clarkson who sang the National Anthem. Check out those performance pics below.

Share your thoughts in the comments!

The 53-year-old superstar opened up to The Advocate about the “Born This Way” singer and the constant comparisons between the two. An interviewer asked Madonna what she thought of Gaga, to which she replied, “I have no thoughts. What’s the question?”

Later on in the interview with the mag, Madonna did talk a bit about Mother Monster’s connection to gay fans, where she then brought up Ms. Britney Spears.

Speaking on Gaga’s gay following, the singer, who is gearing up to perform at Sunday’s Super Bowl game, said:

“It seems genuine. It seems natural, and I can see why she has a young gay following. I can see that they connect to her kind of not fitting into the conventional norm. I mean, she’s not Britney Spears. She’s not built like a brick sh-thouse.”

Interesting.

This wouldn’t be the first time Madonna has publicly dissed Gaga. Recently, Madonna talked to ABC News about Gaga’s song “Born This Way,” which many have compared to her 90′s hit, “Express Yourself.”

“I thought, this is a wonderful way to redo my song. I mean, I recognized the chord changes. I thought it was . . . interesting.”
