Charlie Sheen Launches Clothing Line
Celebrities all over Hollywood are parlaying their success and name recognition into following dreams of becoming designers, and now, Charlie Sheen is no exception.
The “Two and a Half Men” star is launching a line of children's clothing. Charlie is teaming up with longtime friend and business partner Michael Berens to create the Sheen Kidz collection.
The 75 piece girl’s only line will be available exclusively at chic Los Angeles boutique Kitson Kids, and the prices range from $20 to $80.
The actor was inspired by his two daughters, 2-year-old Sam and baby Lola. Charlie is currently embroiled in divorce proceedings with his baby’s momma, actress Denise Richards.
Willie Nelson Releases Song about Gay Cowboys
County music legend released a new sort of love song on Valentine's Day. The same man who sang 'Always on My Mind' and 'To All the Girls I've Loved Before' is now singing 'Cowboys Are Frequently, Secretly (Fond of Each Other)' - possibly the first gay cowboy song by a major recording artist.
Available exclusively through iTunes, the song features choppy Tex-Mex style guitar runs and Nelson's deadpan delivery of lines like, "What did you think all them saddles and boots was about?" and "Inside every cowboy there's a lady who'd love to slip out." The song, which debuted Tuesday on Howard Stern's satellite radio show, was written by Texas-born singer-songwriter Ned Sublette in 1981. Sublette said he wrote it during the "Urban Cowboy" craze and always imagined Nelson singing it.
Coincidentally, Nelson sings "He Was a Friend of Mine" on the "Brokeback Mountain" soundtrack.
Jackson Tells Ex-Wife To Beat It
An appeals court has instated an order granting Michael Jackson sole custody of his two children with ex-wife Debbie Rowe, despite her concerns over the singer's child molestation trial.
On Wednesday, California's 2nd District Court of Appeals ruled that Rowe, who in 2001 signed away her parental rights to the 47-year-old performer's two oldest children, Michael Jr. and Paris, had no legal grounds to terminate that arrangement.
Rowe, who was married to Jackson from 1997 to 1999 but never lived with the King of Pop, persuaded a Los Angeles Superior Court judge to overturn the child custody agreement in 2004 on legal grounds. Rowe's petition cited accusations of child molestation against Jackson and his association with the Nation of Islam, whose members briefly provided security for the singer during the trial.
The case ended with Jackson's acquittal in June of 2005.
Stapp And Rock Appear In Sex Tape
The New York Daily News reports that a sex tape featuring former Creed frontman Scott Stapp and Kid Rock has emerged.
According to NY Daily News, the tape shows Rock, 35, and Stapp, 32, getting pleasured by a pair of women.
Stapp tells the cameraman, "This is my third. It's good to be the king."
The 20-minute video was apparently made six years ago, after the musicians went to a Miami strip club.
The footage gets even more unsavory when the rockers have sex in a motor home.
David Josephs, president of Red Light District Video, tells the NY Daily News that the two men also strip.
Josephs says, "We'd like to release it sometime this year, but we have to go through some legal stuff first."
