The next cycle of America's Top Model will feature its first transgendered contestant. The cycle will debut on September 3rd and you can be sure that 22 year-old Isis who describes herself as "a woman born physically male," will make it to the end of the competition. The producers of America’s Top Model did this on purpose; they want publicity and publicity is what they’ll get. Neil Giuliano, president of GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation), calls Isis’ inclusion on the show "an unprecedented opportunity for a community that is underrepresented on television."
Britney Spears recently did an interview with OK! Magazine. This is her first interview in two years. In it she opened up about a few things including becoming an aunt to her 16 year-old sister’s baby. She says when she found out that her sister Jamie-Lynn was pregnant it was strange, she says, Jamie always was the baby and now the baby was having a baby and she found it "mind-boggling", but she does believe that little Maddie will bring the family closer together. Britney says she can see her two sons acting like big brothers towards her. Of course Britney lost custody of her children in 2007, she does however have visitation with them. Jamie Spears, Britney’s father and conservator was also present for the interview. He opened up as well about what it’s been like to be back in his daughter’s life. He says it’s "wonderful", he says that sometimes Britney calls him 50 times a day and asks him things that light up his life. He also admits however that like "all daughters, she is very manipulative and cunning. So she gets what she wants a lot". As far as Kevin Federline goes, Jamie says Kevin would love for Britney to have 50/50 custody, and that his heart is in the right place and he wants to raise the children together with Britney. Britney says her new album will be out in 6 to 9 months. She says it will have a more urban flavour and that she’s written more on this disc than any previous disc she’s released.
In other Spears family news, apparently Casey Aldridge, the father of Jamie Lynn Spears’ daughter was sleeping with 28 year-old Kelli Dawson while Jamie-Lynn was pregnant. You’re not going to believe it, but Britney’s first husband, the guy she was married to for 8 hours, Jason Alexander confirmed the rumour. Jason says, "Kelli and Casey have been a couple on and off for a few years... They were a really tight couple, but I think it was hard for Kelli, having Jamie Lynn in the picture." Fortunately for Jamie Lynn, Kelli says she and Casey stopped sleeping with each other a few months before Jamie Lynn gave birth because "it just didn't feel right," Kelli explained. "He had to deal with the baby coming, and it had to stop." She says the last time the couple had sex together was in March but "even after we stopped having sex, we would still kiss occasionally."

If you’re in love with the Jonas Brothers, this might help you out a little. The popular brothers recently shared a few of the things that they look for when it comes to dating girls. First of all you can’t be a complainer or a nag. The brothers really don’t like people who complain. Kevin Jonas says that when you’re on the road a lot and the only interaction you have with people is over the phone it’s terrible when you start talking to someone and all they do is vent about what an awful day they had. Joe feels the same way, he has no patience for nagging and annoying girls. The second criteria is this; you have to be nice to their mom. One has to wonder, who wouldn't be nice to the Jonas Brothers' mom? I mean come on!!! By the way, it looks like the boys are about to become even more popular! It's true!, they're in talks right now with Ben Stiller, apparently about teaming up for a movie.
Could Pamela Anderson actually become... royalty? Maybe... a CH30 source says that Pam has been quietly seeing a man from the United Arab Emirates. And he's not just any man, he's a member of Abu Dhabi's royal family. Pam isn't really saying anything at the moment and apparently Pam has only revealed his name to a few friends. She usually refers to him by a pet name, like, "Milk-Sheik, or "Milk" for short". Most recently, they were spotted hanging out with friends this weekend at the Abbey, a gay bar in West Hollywood, California. "He's very handsome," says a source.
According to presidential candidate, Barack Obama, his two daughters, Malia who is 10 and Sasha who is 7, would not welcome a visit from Britney Spears or Paris Hilton. This comment surfaces after Republican rival John McCain unveiled a television campaign comparing Obama to the two young stars. Apparently Barack’s comments regarding Britney Spears and Paris Hilton were made before the McCain campaign, and it’s going to be published in an upcoming issue of Marie Claire. Barack says that this daughters, "Malia and Sasha are very down on Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. Malia is the first one to change (the channel) if something suddenly comes on that she thinks is inappropriate. And I don't think we're alone in feeling that the way the culture sexualizes young girls is a problem - that it encroaches on their childhood."
Former Destiny’s Child star Kelly Rowland isn’t too busy right now so she’s taken to throwing wild parties! A CH30 source says Kelly was recently in St. Tropez where she racked up a $400,000.00 tab at the bar! It was apparently a great party, Bono even showed up and enjoyed a beverage or two. Apparently Kelly bought 50 magnums of $6,000 vintage Dom Perignon, 24 bottles of $1,000 Patron tequila and 10 bottles of $4,000 Louis XIII cognac. "Kelly was the ultimate host and even when the bar bill began to spiral out of control, she refused to close the tab. She had 30 very thirsty pals, so it was always going to be a pretty big night. At one point, Kelly started dancing wildly and put on a silly Viking hat, much to the hilarity of everyone. Bono arrived quite late and Kelly told him to order whatever he liked. A good night was had by all."
Last Miley Cyrus admitted in an article printed in Seventeen magazine that she did in fact date Nick Jonas and that they were in love. Since then Nick’s brother Kevin has made it obvious that he has zero interest in seeing Miley and his brother get back together. Kevin was spotted wearing a ‘Team Demi and Selena’ shirt. Demo Lovato and Selena Gomez are Miley’s teen rivals I suppose you could say. They also work for Disney, just like Miley and their popularity is exploding! Last month Miley was forced to apologize to the two girls after she recorded an online video poking fun at them.
Tori Spelling has backed out of the 90210 spinoff! Apparently not much has changed since back in the day, it came down to Tori being upset because she found out that Jennie Garth and Shannen Doherty were earning $35,000-$50,000 per episode and she was only getting $10,000-$20,000. Tori believes that she’s as much of a talent and a draw as the other girls so when she found out she wasn’t being paid the same as them she said ‘see ya’!
