According to the New York Post, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen wouldn’t let anyone talk to them, wouldn’t answer any questions, and wouldn’t sign anything but their new book.

And even then, they could only sign one copy per person. They also asked that there be absolutely no fan photography.

What a couple of trolls.

If you can wait until 2010 you’ll be able to get your Sex and the City fix without having to watch reruns.

Candace Bushnell, the woman behind Sex and the City, has signed a two-part book deal with HarperCollins and she is bringing Carrie Bradshaw back.

But this time as a teenager.  The novel will be about Carrie’s teenage years and life in high school. Bushnell states,

“I’ve always been interested in exploring Carrie’s teenage years. Carrie in high school did not follow the crowd - she led it. It was there that she began observing and commenting on the social scene.”

The book is set to hit shelves in the fall of 2010.

I knew it was all a sham.

If you remember when Britney Spears first popped onto the scene, she was cute and so naive, and she was everywhere.  Her management obviously tried to paint this ‘perfect American teenager’ image to the public, and they made Britney play the role.

She claimed to be a virgin for like, ever.  Even when she was with Justin Timberlake she claimed to be one.  Anyhow, we were right.  Britney did what other teenagers do, she grew up.  And fast.  But like many child stars, the pressures of ‘being perfect’ took their toll and it obviously had an effect on her.

Sadly, her mother decided to write a book (The Storm: A Real Tale Of Fame And Family In A Tabloid World) about it and put her daughter’s skeleton’s on display.  So like a stage mom, isn’t it?

Lynne claims that Brit started drinking at the tender age of 13, not long after leaving the Mickey Mouse Club.  She also says that her daughter lost her virginity at 14 to some random 18-year-old high school football player, and by 15 Britney was into drugs.

After Lynne caught Britney drinking she says she allowed her to drink as long as she did it at home.

She says while Britney was with Justin she allowed him to sleep in Britney’s bed whenever coming over - because she thought her daughter was in love and that JT was good for her.

She also dishes that Brit was caught boarding a private plane with cocaine and pot when she was only 16.

Lynne claims she is now sorry for the way Britney was exploited but she doesn’t claim to have had any part in it.  She blames it solely on Britney’s management, who controlled her life and sexualized her.

It’s amazing to me that Lynne is trying to wipe her hands of everything in this book.  Oh yeah, and don’t forget she’s selling her daughter out at the same time.  It’s sad.

Was it the money?  The attention?  What makes a parent do that to their child?  Basically give up your parental rights and hand your kid over to Hollywood, and it’s not your fault for letting it happen?  Does she realize what a fool she looks like?

Egad.

Although it was well known that Faith Evans‘ husband, Christopher Wallace a.k.a. The Notorious B.I.G., had numerous affairs, Faith never really talked about her struggles with her husband’s infidelities, until now.

Evans, 35, admits that she used to take her frustrations out on the women her husband slept with by assaulting them.

In her new autobiography, Keep The Faith, she admits that one of those women was rap star Lil’ Kim.

She says that one day after a huge fight with her husband, she returned home and found Biggie and Kim together.

“I got to Big’s bedroom door, turned the knob, and went inside. As soon as I saw a small lump next to Big’s large frame, I flew into a rage, ran over to the side of the bed, and pulled back the covers. I grabbed some chick out of the bed and started beating her ass.  I stopped throwing punches for a minute to get a good look at the chick I was beating up. It was Lil’ Kim. She was completely butt-naked, yelling as I pushed her around the room.”

Kim was promptly escorted from the couple’s home, doing some damage to Faith’s car on her way out.

Faith adds,

“I have to say I actually felt some pity for Kim. Big had a wife, and she settled for messing with him. Kim still settled for being the other woman. It seemed pretty sad to settle for that.”

That’s funny.  Doesn’t Tupac, Biggie’s archenemy, claim to have stuck it to Faith in his song, “Hit ‘Em Up”?  Yes.  Yes, he does.  Pot meet kettle.

You have to love this family. Seriously!

Matthew McConaughey’s mother, Kay McConaughey, is coming out with a new book that tells her family story.

I Amaze Myself is full of off-the-wall stories about the McConaugheys, and Kay doesn’t hold back when telling them. The woman certainly has a sense of humor and now we know where her son gets it.

In the book, Kay tells of Matthew’s father’s death. He died the way any man on this earth would love to go. While having sex with his wife!

Kay tells Us Weekly,

“On Monday mornings, he and I often said goodbye by making love. But one day, all of a sudden, it just happened. I knew that something was wrong, because I didn’t hear anything from him. Just nothing. But it was just the best way to go!”

Amen, sister!  Hooray for Jim!

It seems Kay was a real horn dog for her man - and his penis!   When her husband, Jim, could not be revived, she sent him out of this world like he came into it. In the nude.

“I was just so proud to show off my big old Jim McConaughey — and his gift,” she says.

Yeah, I’m sure the paramedics were thrilled to check his gift out! Ha!  That explains that HUGE bulge in Matthew’s shorts, bitches!

Keeping with the sex theme, Kay also dished that her gorgeous son was no accident. She had Matthew after marrying Jim for the third time.

“I was deciding, ‘Do I want to have another baby? Do I want to have an affair? Or go back to school?. That’s when Matthew was conceived. We had tried for 16 years and no baby. So Matthew was a big surprise!”

Well, it’s certainly no surprise where Matthew gets his honest, off-the-wall quirkiness!  Personally, I think it’s hot.  No snobby Hollywood family here!

Sounds like I have a new book on my ‘to read’ list!

One of Loaded’s favorite subjects, burlesque queen Dita Von Teese, is featured in it’s latest issue with a sneak peek of a new book she is starring in.

Dita shows off her petite feet and pin-up body in the new book by photographer Ed Fox that plays on foot fetishes.

Fox says, “The attractions of the foot, like the rest of a woman’s body, are intriguing and a mystery. I really don’t know why.”

Von Teese who has long been a fan of fetishes, once admitted her love for pornography.

“Amateur pornography is a great thing. You can find anything for everyone on the internet. So long as no one’s hurting anyone or involving children then hey, what’s wrong with that?”

In Christopher Ciccone’s new tell-all book about sister Madonna, (Life With My Sister Madonna), he says the Queen of pop loves no one more than she loves herself.

Ciccone, 47, touches on the controversy surrounding Madge and Guy Ritchie’s marriage being on the rocks, and says that he believes she really does love Guy - just not more than she loves herself and her career.  He adds that he thinks the couple is doing everything they can to stay together and that includes practicing Kabbalah.

I love this quote by Ciccone, “I hope that it is Kabbalah’s lesson that she is not the center of the universe.”

Ha!

He also dished about Madge’s sex life saying that she lost her virginity to some dude named Russell, and he talks about his sister’s exes, Sean Penn and Warren Beatty.

More claims include Bruce Willis being a skirt chaser, even when married to Demi Moore, that Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow made out once on a New Years Eve and that same night he says he and Guy got into a ’shoving match’.  Christopher is quite convinced that Guy is a homophobe.

Madonna used to be close with her brother.  He worked on a couple tours with her in the early 90s serving as artistic director.  But he says they have no relationship these days.

The 342-page book book is set to hit stores next Tuesday.

Madonna’s brother, Christopher Ciccone, whom the superstar had a falling out with years ago, is writing a tell-all book that is said to be quite venomous.

A source spoke with the New York Post, refusing to give specific details but did describe the book as, “extremely graphic and devastating.”

“He wrote it on the sly without telling Madonna. They want to put it out before her lawyers can get a hold of it.”

A friend of Madge’s said, “We’d heard rumors, but didn’t realize he’d actually written it. He was there through the crazy years and has many stories to tell, I’m sure. He’s seen it all. Oh, my.”

The New York Post describes the reason for the falling out between the two siblings:

“Ciccone - a gay decorator/chef once described by Rupert Everett in Everett’s biography as “a solid raft for Madonna in the shark-infested waters” - was ditched by his sister after she hooked up with her now husband Guy Ritchie, who Everett said was “uncomfortable around queens.”

See, Madonna isn’t as “gay friendly” as everyone would like to believe. One of my sources once dished that Madge attended a show put on by gays - I think it was in honor of her birthday or something - and she brought her then rapper boyfriend (who I have a hunch was Coolio, although I don’t know for sure). When an older drag queen went up and serenaded her, the rapper kicked him in the shins. With some big ass shoes on. The rapper did this repeatedly, as he performed, drawing blood through his thick tights. Madonna did nothing to stop it, and in fact, laughed throughout. My source spoke with the performer afterward and he was saddened but not shocked. He was just a sweet, fragile, older guy, who adored Madonna…and look where it got him.

She’s a cold, hard bitch in my opinion (sorry Lala!) and I can’t wait to hear the dirt!

Bobby Brown’s new autobiography takes punches at his ex-wife Whitney Houston, claiming he never did cocaine until he met her and that she married him for the wrong reasons.

The book, “Bobby Brown: The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But,” hits shelves next month.

In it Bobby says, “I never used cocaine until after I met Whitney. Before then, I had experimented with other drugs, but marijuana was my drug of choice. . .At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed and cooked cocaine.”

Bobby says his marriage with Houston “was doomed from the very beginning. Within the first year we separated, with several more to follow. . .I think we got married for all the wrong reasons. Now, I realize Whitney had a different agenda than I did when we got married. . .I believe her agenda was to clean up her image, while mine was to be loved and have children.”

He adds that Whitney was under “a lot of pressure,” at the time of their marriage.

“The media was accusing her of having a bisexual relationship with her assistant, Robin Crawford. Since she was the American Sweetheart and all, that didn’t go too well with her image . . . In Whitney’s situation, the only solution was to get married and have kids. That would kill all speculation, whether it was true or not. In the short, I think I got caught up in the politics and ended up marrying one of the biggest stars in the world.”

Brown also admits in the book to some wrongdoing. Mostly his infidelities. “I am guilty of sleeping with other women. . .Women are always throwing themselves at you. I’m only human, so I would make the mistake and bite the hook sometimes. . .I let the testosterone take over.”

It’s all Whitney’s fault! It’s all the testosterones fault!

Whatever dude. Face it, you would have been a basehead with or without Whitney. I think it was probably a very mutual thing. Both of them have addictive personalities and were co-dependent for a long time.

Bobby’s trying his damnedest to get his career rolling again with reality shows, books and *snicker* country music, but it’s not working.

The crackhead in him will be back. Trust.

Nicollette Sheridan’s ex-boyfriend is anxious to reveal her uglier side in a new tell-all book.

Nicklas Soderblom, a Swedish personal trainer, says the couple broke up back in 2005 when Nicollette left him for Michael Bolton.

Soderblom wrote the book, Not a Desperate Houseman, with the help of journalist Bonnie Robinson. They are currently seeking a publisher.

Robinson says the book reveals all about the couple’s relationship and Sheridan’s spats with Desperate Housewives co-stars.

She went on to say that Soderblom is “a man who fell passionately in love with a self-centered celebrity” and that aging Nicollette was “a stressed out middle-aged woman in Hollywood who sees Desperate Housewives as her last big break.”

Robinson adds that Sheridan was nothing like her oversexed character on the hit show. She says that she was “barely interested in sex; except as a means of manipulation to get what she wants. In fact, she couldn’t be more opposite in real life than the sexy Edie Britt she portrays on Desperate Housewives.”

That doesn’t surprise me. She seems too self absorbed to be interested in sex. She probably has a bedroom full of mirrors just so she can bring herself to do it.
