Justin Bieber..heartfelt down-to-earth concert in North Tonawanda (NY)!

Fans of Justin Bieber were in for quite a surprise when their sexy heartthrob not only turned up for a contest at the local school (Edward Town Middle School in Niagara Wheatfield) but ended up plucking up a guitar and performing four tunes on their humble stage!

The school spirit contest was hosted by Kiss 98.5 and raised a staggering 1.5 million pennies ($152,000.00) for the ocal Women and Children's hospital.

The winners successfully rustled up $17,000.00 of their own accord.

In a local broadcast, Justin gushed that he "feels like a regular kid."

And why not?

He is!

A damn site cuter, and a little more talented, perhaps.

By now, most fans - and the general public - are keen to the power of YouTube because of ambitious Justin.

The down-to-earth happy-go-lucky kid was the first to skyrocket to fame when he was literally discovered on the popular music site.

"I just put them up (videos) and it was fun to do and it got really big, really fast. I'm just glad I get to experience it."

His lastest musical offering is number one in the country.

The Riviera Theater in North Tonawanda was the hush-hush location for the concert.

All the details were kept top secret until Justin left the building.

Even the top snoops missed the scoop!

Good on you, Bieb!

Ricky Martin...gay! Twitter mixed reactions hilarious, touching, surprising...

Ricky Martin's announcement on his Official Web site (and by way of tweet) that he is "gay" - triggered a lot of frenzied commentary on Twitter this afternoon - that ranged from congratulatory to downright hilarious.

One tweeter quipped: 

"OMG!  Ricky Martin has a blog?"

Another tweeter chuckled:

"We knew, dude. Thanks."

On the humorous side, a handful of tweets were so precious, I just had to pass 'em along!

"I thought he was a ladies man. Now he's a man's man," another posted with an obvious smirk on their face.

One of my favorites?

"Ricky Martin admits he's fabulous! You go, girl."

It was a bummer (wrong choice of words?) for others with a crush on the Pop star.

"When my friend on facebook heard the news she was heartbroken."

What rock has she been hiding under for the last decade?

Some were in the dark, I guess.

"Whether it was obvious or not, it still took courage to come out," asserted another.

But, those folks appeared to be in the minority, judging by the comments posted.

"How many people actually thought he was straight?"

"We we supposed to think he was straight?"

Others congratulated Ricky for busting out of the closet.

"Welcome to the club!"

"Ricky Martin came out of the closet. #abouttime."

Some were playful!

"Shock news! Ricky Martin not pretending to be gay – he really is gay!"

"Ricky Martin has come out of the closet? Shocker... Who saw that coming?"

A handful sighed and wondered what the fuss was all about.

"Ricky Martin is trending. Is he still considered a celeb?"

In restrospect, it appears that a large percentage of music-lovers (Joe public, too) knew that Ricky was gay and that he was trying to hide the fact.

Ricky appeared to be one of the lone few who didn't have a clue about the fact that most folks have been keenly aware of his sexual preference for years.

Talk about a pink elephant in the room!

The end scenario?

Ricky rides off into the sunset with Prince Charming.

Or, hooks-up with a tattoo artist from Silver Lake!

Robert Pattinson...gives nod to 4th Twilight sequel! Hearts all a-flutter...

At a press conference yesterday, Robert Pattinson - sexy star of the Twilight vampire serials penned by Stephenie Meyer and brought to the silver screen by Summit Entertainment - confirmed he inked a pact to appear before the cameras for the 4th chapter when it lenses (Breaking Dawn).

It wasn't much of a gamble for the producers; after all, domestic ticket sales for the 1st Chapter of the Vampire saga peaked @ a staggering $190 Million.

A die-hard fan base (consisting mostly of primping teenage girls pining after sexy heart-throb Robert Pattinson) and a fascination with Vamp culture pretty much guarantees long successful runs for all 4 features in the popular series.

In spite of the heavy work load in that blood-sucking end of the biz, Pattinson has managed to take on projects of personal interest, as well.

Recently, he tackled a challenging role in "Little Ashes", for instance.

Set in Madrid in 1922, the tale focuses on a young Salvador Dali (Pattinson) who meets filmmaker Luis Bunuel (Mathew McNulty) and writer Federico Garcia Lorca (Javier Beltran) while attending University.

Fans of "Twilight" may be a little shell-shocked when they slip into a local theatre to catch the artsy-fartsy feature.

Yup, Robert Pattinson and Javier Beltran take a stab at a homoerotic soft-porn love scene!

Reports from the closed set hinted that this couple of straight dudes couldn't fathom their butts from their little doggies in the worst way.

In fact, Pattinson whined to a GQ editor that the extremely graphic sex scenes were not a regular piece of - um - cake.

"The hardest part was doing it doggie-style."

Ouch!

"Because we're both straight, what we were doing seemed kind of ridiculous," he quipped in an afterthought.

We gather from the Twilight series that Pattinson can suck, though!

Make-up, do something with those pits!

Hugh Jackman...he said what about sex & Americans?

Jackman he-man persona revs up fans!

In response to persistent rumors about his sexuality, Hugh Jackman was inclined to go on record this past week and note in so many eloquent words, that he is not - aw! - gay!

Actually, it is what the buffed heart-throb didn't say, that may have raised a spectre of doubt in a handful of die-hard homoerotically-inspired male fans.

Jackman didn't say he wasn't bisexual!

Oh boy, now the rumor mills will start churning out the dirt, eh?

Yeah, I think like a sneak, I know.

I've heard so much double-talk from Bill Clinton over the years, that I am inclined to be on-the-ready to dissect chest hairs, if necessary.

The debonair leading man (who just recently hosted one the highest-rated Academy Awards shows in recent years) was careful not to ruffle any peacock feathers, though.

On the heels of his public "non-outing", the Australian star was quick to follow-up with a statement sure to keep him out of hot water with gays activists (pansies, too) around the globe.

"There is nothing shameful about it (homosexuality)."

Did he ever give it the old "college try" in the locker-room shower, I wonder?

Hugh (married with children) wasn't a shrinking violet when it came to the subject of the American psyche as it pertained to animal passions (sex).

"The questions about sexuality I find more here in America than anywhere else, because its a big hang-up and defines what people think about themselves and others."

"Its not a big issue in Australia," he added as he swaggered off into the sunset.

What a stud, eh?

Ever been in the sack with a Daddy?

Twilight...heart-throb Robert Pattinson gets squeals from fans!

I don't recall the last time I was in a movie theatre - and the fans let out squeals of delight - when the object of their desire sauntered onto the screen!

But, that's what happened last night at the Grove.

When Robert Pattinson (the romantic lead star of "Twilight") strode into the landscape, filmgoers reacted as if he was making a grand entrance on the theatrical stage.

I'd hazzard a guess there were a few wet panties in the darkened Theatre below the floodlights, too!

When the film opened at midnight recently at Universal Studios in the Valley, teenage girls dragged their reluctant boyfriends (or best buds) to share in the emotional thrill.

For the most part, the dudes just tagged along and sheepishly shrugged.

What was a boy to do?

I can attest to Mr. Pattinson's appeal in the flesh.

A couple of weeks ago, the screen Vampire strolled within inches of me at a red carpet event.

Up-close, he boasts alabaster skin, luscious strands of jet-black hair (in preparation for a role perhaps?) that free-flowed from a prominent brow, and wide mischievous eyes brimming with an intriguing light beaming out from behind 'em.

Definitely studly hearth-throb material!

Onscreen, though, his brooding face looked as if it had been swathed in a ubiquitious (and unflattering) thin white paste.

And, his lips were almost laughable, so pretty a shade of lipstick red were they.

Dramatic, yes. Natural, no.

His acting style was a little stilted in Twilight, too.

Although the opening scenes called for awkward moments between his character and that of Ms. Kirsten Stewart (Bella), his on-camera mannerisms tended to be stiff, unconvincing, and forced.

In contrast, Stewart was at ease; each and every moment on the silver screen resonated with a breath of truth.

I expect that once Mr. Pattinson settles into the role (judging by the closing scenes, there will be a sequel or two, by the way) he'll become more believable in the daunting role.

Til then, I expect his pubescent fans will have a word or two for me.

"Frankly, we don't give a damn."

The eye candy is enough to snack on for now, 'til something meatier comes along.
