Heaven Sent: Most viewed pictures

"Just Like You" by Keyshia ColeThe distance (and difference) between R&B singer Keyshia Cole's first album, The Way It Is, and her second one, Just Like You, is plainly evident in the tenor of their titles: On her explosive debut, she stated fact from on high, an avenging goddess for lovelorn women, while on this new record, she wants to convince you she's the girl next door, and the songs suffer for it. Cole's voice remains a challenge to reigning queen Mary J. Blige, a blare of sound from the bottom of the stomach that roughens as it increases in volume—but when she's less angry the full range of it isn't present. The smoother, less aggressive tone of this album suggests that maybe Cole has vented enough—but we beg to differ. It's hard to find flaw with tracks like "I Remember," a slow, gentle track constructed with strings and guitar arpeggios, but it does take its sweet time getting to the point and sounds rather like a lot of other girl-power R&B. "Heaven Sent," meanwhile, is a

With those moving words, a surprisingly eloquent Matthew McConaughey sent Evel Knievel, the greatest daredevil of them all, off to jump the biggest motorcycle ramp in Heaven. [LiveVideo.com]

Quentin Tarantino Not Wasting Any Time Hyping Unproduced 'Inglorious Bastards' [War Story] We've apparently been at the wrong film festival for the last week; while Mike White teased LAFF attendees about School of Rock 2 and while three-quarters of the X-Files braintrust jerked around more than 500 fans with virtually no details about the new movie, Quentin Tarantino spent the weekend telling anyone in Provincetown who would listen about his developing World War II epic Inglorious Bastards. Anne Thompson notes today that the script is done — down from its original 12,000-page draft, we hear, to a more manageable 154 or so — and Tarantino preempted genre cynics in a missive to the BBC: With Inglorious Bastards he will be making his first period film. But he said: "I don't want it to feel like a period film. I want it to feel current. "I want it to feel right now. One of the things I have to battle against is 30 years of Nazi-occupation TV movies where we've all seen the big streets and the vintage cars and the Swastikas, and we've just seen that ad nauseum. "This is a modern, in-your-face movie. This is not a TV movie period piece." We'll wait and see how he works his beloved foot fetish into prison-camp ordeals and battallion warfare, but our primary hope is that Tarantino's self-imposed Cannes '09 deadline for Bastards' premiere falls within the statute of limitations for a smackdown from his old pal Spike Lee. Any combination of the two — e.g. "The trenches weren't no plantation, and the brothers weren't down there shrimping, neither" — would be an added bonus sent straight from feud heaven.

J.Lo Jennifer Lopez Wants Only the Best for Her Baby Photos Photo: iStockphotoJennifer Lopez, mother to the heaven-sent twins Max and Emme, got $6 million from People magazine in exchange for their first baby pictures, according to reports. But did you also know she demanded her husband, Marc Anthony, be the one to shoot them? That's what TMZ.com says. (We would have really preferred Anne Geddes, but you can't have everything.) They also hear that she insisted upon being called "Jennifer," as opposed to the commonly accepted "J.Lo," throughout the entire article. Oh, and also for the rest of time. A rep for People told the Website that their story was "absurd," but we do know that Lopez's reps prefer for her to be called "Jennifer," so this doesn’t seem like that much of a stretch. Also, "Jennifer" is no fool. If Marc is behind the cameras, he can't be in the photos! J.Lo to 'People': Don't Call Me Dat!! [TMZ.com]

And on the Third Day, the Lopez Twins Rose From the WombIs that a flask she's holding in the right hand picture? Well, she can start doing that again, too!Photo: Getty ImagesFinally. America's exhaustive wait is over. Jennifer Lopez, shortly after midnight, expelled her heaven-sent twins from her womb, bestowing their glory unto the world. According to the Associated Press, a 5-pound, 7-ounce girl popped out first, followed a few minutes later by a 6-pound brother. We know that you have a lot of questions: are they healthy? What are their names? Will People really pay $4-6 million for their first mug shots? Is her vagina totally broken now? Unfortunately, we won't know these answers for a few weeks, until People runs an airbrushed picture of Jennifer's glowing face inches away from the tots, with a coverline somehow involving the word "joy." All we know for sure are these two things: One, that those two babies, by virtue of being fraternal boy-and-girl twins, are going to be the awesomest Hollywood hellraisers ever. And two, J.Lo is going to drop that baby weight faster than you can say "Natalia Vodianova is on back on the catwalk." Even though she was totally a hot pregnant lady, her size was beginning to terrify us a little. Lopez Gives Birth To Twins in NY [AP]

Poll: Angelina Heaven-Sent Savior of Humanity; Madonna Shrewd Opportunist Who Also Can't Sing [More 2007 Listmania]Angelina Jolie can add another superlative feather in her cap: she's a poll-topper in the all-important Best Celebrity Humanitarian of 2007 caucus. Voters chose the adoptive mother of several Third World tykes specifically because they believe her charitable efforts not to be a calculated effort to land atop the very Best Celebrity Humanitarian poll. From the Reuters report: "People aren't stupid," said Peter Walker, director of the Feinstein International Famine Center at Tufts University. "They can really sense when it's just an endorsement and when somebody really means it. Someone like Angelina Jolie comes across as having more integrity than some celebrities and a greater sense that she doesn't just do this for the publicity." You know, like Madonna. "Madonna seems to do philanthropy the way she's done Indian culture, sex, and just about everything -- like a disposable fad," said one anonymous voter. "Hope she doesn't get bored of her adopted African kid." Not to worry: By that time, she'll be bored of her biological children and they'll be old enough to finish raising him.

Jennifer Lopez's Twins May Not Be Touched by Angels After AllHere at Daily Intel, we've been treating the arrival of Jennifer Lopez's babies with the reverence due their holy stature. But now we're beginning to question whether they were sent from heaven. Would Mohammed, for example, have agreed to star in a reality-TV show on TLC? Within six months of landing on earth? We hardly think so. And yet Jennifer Lopez and her husband, Marc Anthony, have arranged for a documentary crew to follow them around as they raise their twins and juggle their important career responsibilities. Jennifer will be launching a perfume! How can you have twins and launch a perfume? (Wait, didn't Britney Spears release a new scent while she was locked up in the loony bin? Isn't a fragrance launch something that celebrities can do without even thinking about it — like having six-packs or supporting Barack Obama?) Anyway, we digress. Max and Emme, we're disappointed in you for selling out so early. Even your mom had to be a Fly Girl before she had her day in the sun. Though, to be fair, it may all just be a cry for help. Judging from the first pictures of the baby twins at the Lopez home in People magazine, we fear they may actually be in danger. There's no way that much chintz and toile is baby-proof.

Simon Cowell's Rad
Now that I'm recapping American Idol, I find myself appreciating Simon Cowell more and more. I admire his honesty and the obvious relish he takes in verbally eviscerating wannabe pop stars. When they visibly wince and recoil at his words is what elevates my viewing experience. I can't get behind the sweater nipples, but I give him an 'A' for his bitchcraft.
Simon isn't just a celebrity grouch, he's an angel sent straight down from heaven. Randy and Amy Stoen are a couple from Minnesota who were on Oprah's show, discussing their daughter Madelaine. Madelaine has a rare form of facial cancer which is very aggressive. A family friend alerted Simon to this and he paid off their mortgage.
That's hot. We need more of that. Dig deep, Paula. You too, Seacrest, you big queen. Simon went on Oprah with them to make his announcement.
"I know that you're having problems with your mortgage. And as of this afternoon, your mortgage has been paid off," he said. "If there's any problems, you know, I'm a guardian angel now," he told them. The couple only reportedly went on to call attention to their daughter's illness and to help other parents out. And now their house is paid off!
You would think I would crumple up and die by writing something uplifting and positive, but surprisingly no! Go Simon!

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony to introduce Max and Emme tomorrowHave you been waiting on pins and needles for the first look of Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony's twins Max and Emme? Wait no longer. The three-week-old twins will be introduced in the new issue of People, to debut online Thursday morning at 7 am. People editor Peter Castro spent the weekend with the couple and reports that the 38-year-old mom is in heaven.She described it as the most magical time of her life. She said you know what you can win an Oscar, you can win a Golden Globe, and you know as an ambitious artist you strive for those things but when you have a kid, all of that is irrelevant. I mean this is what is most important to her. As she said, 'As a woman this is the biggest thing that can happen to me.'Continue reading to find out how the new parents are managing and Jennifer's opinion on her postpartum weight loss.Peter revealed that Jennifer gained approximately 45 to 50 pounds during her pregnancy, but she doesn't mind the weight gain at all.She wanted to do that because she had twins and she wanted to get those twins big. And they were almost 6 pounds when they were born. And right now, yes, she's lost a lot of the weight, but she is no rush to lose all of it. She is enjoying motherhood and that is what she is concentrating on.Even though the couple do have help in their home in the form of two nurses, they enjoy taking care of their new arrivals themselves.I have to tell you even though they have two nurses, they do a lot of the work themselves. They are up until 6 o'clock feeding the babies, taking care of the babies. They do not want to leave them, they are so attached right now. Jennifer embraced her pregnancy and part of that is due to the fact that she didn't believe it was ever going to happen.It had been so long and she was trying so hard to get pregnant that she did not believe the first results. So she sent an assistant out and said, "Get me two more pregnancy tests." She took a second one,

J.Lo's OB/GYN Says Everything Was Easy Squeezy With Her Delivery"Don't give me any trouble, ya hear? This is Gucci!"Photo: Getty ImagesAs we lie in wait, desperately refreshing gossip Websites in the hopes that some or any information will pop up about Jennifer Lopez's heaven-sent babies, we've begun to get a little depressed. She's going to give them ridiculous names, we worry to ourselves. Two absurdly pretentious names. Each. Sure, we wouldn't want them to have normal names. We love quirky one-namers like Cruz Beckham, Suri Cruise, and Phinnaeus Cameraman. But you just know J.Lo's going to come up with something more along the lines of Tallulah Belle or Emerson Rose, who are lovely people but whom we can't imagine rocking out in a limo with mohawks and splits of Champagne on their way to their first Communions. We want fireworks, not sweetness! And Life & Style confirms our worries — apparently, even their births were gentle. "Jennifer was amazing," Dr. Anita Sadaty, J. Lo's OB/GYN, told the mag. "She has this motherhood glow about her, very serene. Her boy and girl are healthy — and for that she feels so thankful and blessed." Apparently, the girl popped out ten minutes before the boy, and the whole thing went off "without a hitch. There were no complications whatsoever." Aw, crap. Looks like we're going to have to wait until after their Disney-show downfalls to have any fun. J.Lo's Doctor Speaks: "She's Simply Overjoyed!" [Pagesix.com]

Dirty Texts, Smuggled Vodka, And Sober Chynas: Never A Dull 'Celebrity Rehab' Moment [Hangin With The 'Habbies]newVideoPlayer("chynarehab_defamer.flv", 463, 387,"");We've already acknowledged our powerlessness over the reality drug that is VH1's Celebrity Rehab, so we're not even going to preface this with any sort of disclaimer: This shit's some high-grade, Z-list mess-amphetine we're dealing in here, and we're proud to declare ourselves a bitch to its pipe. Where to start! Daniel dismissed himself from the program, for, as best as we can make out, sending (ballet-class enthusiast!) Mary Carey suggestive cellphone images of his little Baldwin--a scandal that quickly wreaked untold havoc on the carefully controlled atmosphere of their burnout biodome. Semi-regular series villain Vicki, who seems less a human than a relapse-hastening she-gremlin sent down to producers from story editor heaven, was caught smuggling vodka in via Vitamin Water bottle during a visit to Jeff. Then, of course, there's the ongoing issue of what brought a non-drug-abusing, drinking-problem-free Joanie into the program in the first place. Reduced to grasping at addiction straws, Dr. Drew and his staff suggested such other possibilities as steroids ("Nope!"), crystal meth ("Not even once!"), and finally an expensive Starbucks habit ("Yuck--hate coffee!"), before the browbeaten therapists finally threw up their arms in defeat and called the session early.
