Seriously? OMG! WTF?

MARIAH CAREY has always been a bit of a fruit loop – and her unique way of celebrating Christmas only reinforces that view. The ditzy diva says she loves nothing more than stripping off and rolling around in the snow on December 25. And she claims it’s all part of the festive traditions in Aspen in the States. “I like to get out of the hot tub and roll in the snow,” she told Aspen magazine. “Somebody told me that it was a tradition in Aspen, but maybe they were lying to me.” The star has spent Christmas at the star-studded US ski resort since 1997. She continued: “It’s a tradition for us to have Santa Claus-looking bikinis, jump in the hot tub, and roll in the fresh snow.” Each to their own I suppose…

Um, Mariah I think they were lying to you. The only thing you can get from that tradition is pneumonia. 

Victoria Beckham has begged friend Tom Cruise to help Mel B get through her messy break-up from Eddie Murphy. Victoria – who has remained close to her former Spice Girls bandmate – was appalled to hear Eddie questioning the paternity of Mel’s unborn child. The 32-year-old star has now apparently turned to the ‘Top Gun’ actor – who is friends with Eddie – to try and make the ‘Dr Dolittle’ star see sense. A source told Britain’s Daily Star newspaper: "Mel has told Victoria about Eddie’s comments on the phone. So Victoria mentioned Mel B’s situation to Tom, who is pals with Eddie. It seems Tom may now have a gentle word with him about backing off." As well as Tom, Victoria – who is married to soccer superstar David Beckham – wants more of her high-profile friends to rally round Mel B. The source added: "It’s highly likely that all Victoria’s American allies will be on Mel’s side. Jennifer Lopez, who is becoming a good pal of Victoria’s, knows how it works in Hollywood and is all for a bit of ‘Girl Power’."

I am not sure I believe this because who saw Eddie Murphy at either TomKat wedding party? But then again they do share the same publicist? And obviously Posh Spice does not follow American press because being linked to TomFat is a bad thing!
