The heiress leaks a new audiovisual masterpiece about drunk texting.

It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything from Ur-Kardashian, Paris Hilton. I imagine it must be difficult to realize your non-career has been usurped by one of the few people on earth less interesting and talented than you.

Paris has been fairly quiet since her attempt at a comeback fell flat and gossip sites stopped paying for pictures of the blonde heiress posing on her right side with an eerie ability to make the exact same facial expression.

But she must have been locked up in her multimillion-dollar Hollywood mansion the entire time, working hard on ways to recapture our attention for all the wrong reasons. And with the leak of her latest music video it appears she’s finally succeeded. Congratulations?

The singer treats her plaything to yet another lavish vacation. 

Wenn.com:Keystone Press

I’ve come to believe that Casper Smart’s last name does not represent the living embodiment of irony. Far from it. What we’re actually seeing is the rise of Kevin Federline 2.0 – a model much quicker, more advanced, and easier to use than the original.

Like his predecessor, KF 2.0 has managed to convince a beautiful, wealthy superstar that he’s worthy of being a kept plaything, that he should be lavished with gifts, attention, and trips on private jets just so she can keep him by her multimillion-dollar side.

For his latest trick, KF 2.0 has scored a trip down to Rio to accompany his patroness as she makes more money for his daily upkeep.

Pictures of Lindsay Lohan fetch more than $100,000.

Lindsay Lohan’s resumé may say she’s an actress, but the only project for 2012 she has to promote is a movie directed by the Schticky/Slap Chop guy. Really. As the former It Girl tries to reignite her film career, she at least has her modelling to fall back on. She kicked off the year with her Playboy issue, of course, her gig for Jag Jeans, not to mention she’s been a model (sorry) morgue worker over the past couple of months. But did you know that some of her photos still fetch a lot of money? Like, over six figures.

Beyonce and Jay-Z circumvent the paps, debut their daughter the Mariah Carey way.

Psst. Hey you. Yeah, you. Wanna see the luckiest baby on earth? We’re talking an infant that only poops into cashmere diapers, guzzles milk from golden calves in a Swarovski-encrusted bottle, and is rocked to sleep in a chair worth more than everything you’ve ever earned in your entire life combined?

Because when you think of Kris, you should remember that her bits are dustier than a book in the Kardashian household.

Ethan Miller:Getty Images Entertainment

Here’s the thing. Kris Jenner was already wealthy before she started prostituting her own children for fame and money. Now, Kris Jenner is extremely wealthy for prostituting her own children for fame and money. In fact, you could argue that she’s history’s most successful stage mother (which is the official showbiz term for “pimp”).

So what I don’t understand is why Kris felt compelled to lend her name to a line of organic sexual lubricants. No, really – it’s true. She did this. Because clearly, when I’m ready to get in the mood, nothing sends me over the edge like envisioning the terrifying Michael Jackson mask Kris has taken to wearing over her face these days. And, obviously, there’s no greater turn-on than that infallible pair of aphrodisiacs: moral bankruptcy and desperation.

But strange marketing choice aside, I can’t imagine why Kris felt that acquiring a few extra zeroes in her bank account was worth aligning herself with sentences like: “And that’s what I love about Zestra… it works in minutes and is easy-to-use. For me, it’s instant gratification. In a busy, complicated, hectic life, you can still fit in the time for sex, and you know it’s going to be enjoyable.”

For the love of God, how much money is enough?!

Humphries doesn’t want any money from Kim Kardashian in divorce settlement. But he is after one thing...

Kris

Two seemingly unprecedented moves in celebrity divorce history, all in one week? Be still my barely beating lump of coal. First, Russell Brand refused to dig into all of Katy Perry’s heart-shaped wallets and take half her money. Now comes news that Kris Humphries is refusing to put on some heavy-duty gloves, pick up a shovel and sift through piles of Kim Kardashian’s dirty unsexy money for his share.

According to Radar Online, Humphries has made it clear to Kim that he doesn’t want any of her money — but he does want the divorce on his terms. Got get ‘em, Lurch!

TMZ reports the comedian won’t touch a cent of his ex’s multimillion-dollar fortune.

Russell Brand has enjoyed an awful rap for being a womanizer, a former drug addict, and an all-around bad boy. That reputation seemed to ease when he married pop star, Katy Perry. Strangely enough, however, it’s through their divorce that the comedian has started to look like a genuinely decent bloke.

First, he put himself in the line of fire by agreeing to file the divorce papers because Katy’s religious upbringing made it “impossible” for her to do so.

And now, despite the absence of a prenup, Russell has reportedly nixed all claims on his rightful half of Katy’s fortune. Could this be an unprecedented move in celebrity divorce history?

Kim Kardashian wants private divorce mediation — no cameras allowed.

Kim Kardashian’s life is constantly caught on tape, whether it’s by an E! camera for one of the TV shows she is on, or a TMZ guy, looking for a delectable sound bite. Since Kim is the quintessential famewhore, being in front of a camera 24/7 is just another way to sell herself and make as many Benjamins as possible, even if it’s as simple as having lunch with pals, or as crazy as going to church with her mom. That’s right — nothing is sacred, as far as the Kardashian cameras are concerned.

Well, except the divorce proceedings of a 72-marriage that Kim claims wasn’t a farce.

Jay-Z and Beyoncé want to trademark their baby’s name.

Blue Ivy Carter is only four weeks old but, so far, the baby’s life has been filled with a bulletproof delivery room, a song on the Billboard chart, a half-dozen nannies, sapphire-encrusted bottles and hourly diaper changes. So owning her name is right on schedule for Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

That’s right, Blue Ivy Carter is reportedly in such demand that her parents have decided to trademark their daughter’s name.

Madge thinks knows she's worth your hard-earned cash.

People save up their pennies for a lot of reasons: a new computer, a college education, a down payment on a house or a car, a concert ticket to see Madonna... or a down payment for that concert ticket. When tickets are going for $300 each, especially in this economy, things could be headed that way.

So, does Madonna herself, a millionaire hundreds of times over, see a problem with that? Nope! She sure doesn't. Madonna — who did not seem to be shilling for L'Oreal at the time — tells fans: "I'm worth it."
