What 50,000 Gets You In Diddy Dollars

Rebecca Ortiz — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 16:53:07 +0000

Diddy shows no shame when it comes to flaunting his money, but charging other people $50,000 to come to his after the Oscars party?!

More details are out, and of course what everyone wants to know ~ what WILL you get if you do fork out that cash?!

For the record, money from this party will benefit Angelwish (foundation that helps sick children) which is awesome, but what will that generous donation get you?

The black tie event will have performers (not announced yet) and will be at the Playboy Mansion.

Tickets actually start at $1,500 each (that’s just to walk in the door) and go up to $50,000 which is the “VIP Package”.

Sources say that the package includes: VIP for 20 people, 2 monster cabanas, buffet, bottle service/open bar, and 15 models dedicated to you and your guests.

DAY-YUM!!

If you had that kind of cash would you pay to go?

Justin Bieber Re-Tweets Fan Request, Saves Countless Lives

cbssyndication — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 18:09:35 +0000

Need a Lung? Just Ask Justin Bieber…

That Justin Bieber. He can do ANYTHING!

The Biebz recently caused a spike in Canadian organ donor registrations, simply by retweeting a fan’s personal request to the teen star asking that he help raise the number of donors as she awaits a lung transplant.

It all started when 20-year-old Helene Campbell made a personal plea to Justin via Twitter as part of her #beanorgandonor campaign. And Justin responded…

@alungstory i got the word….you have amazing strength. i got u. #BeAnOrganDonor—
Justin Bieber (@justinbieber) January 21, 2012

He didn’t stop there…

help spread the word for @alungstory alungstory.ca #BeAnOrganDonor—
Justin Bieber (@justinbieber) January 21, 2012

By Sunday, the BeADonor.ca website had 565 new donors. A post then appeared on the organization’s Facebook page that said, “Thanks to Helene, her team, and all the Bielibers out there!” Now there are over a thousand new donors!

This really was something huge for Justin to do. A 17-year-old kid, using his fame and 16 million Twitter followers for such good causes as often as he does, while being genuine and interacting personally with his fans… who does that these days? As much as people want to hate on him, he keeps killing them with kindness.

@alungstory glad to be able to help. best part of what i do—

cbssyndication — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 16:56:02 +0000

Oscar’s Odds Are In Your Favor…
It seems that the odds are in an actor’s favor for receiving an Academy Award nomination and eventually picking up the Oscar when they are playing a real life character. This year sees Brad Pitt, Meryl Streep, Michelle Williams, and Kenneth Brannaugh all receiving nominations for portraying real life characters. Take a look at the larger-than-life figures they portrayed as well as other Oscar winners from the past several decades who picked up Oscar gold for their real-life recreations. [OSCAR TRIVIA ALERT: Katherine Hepburn won the Best Actress Award for her portrayal of Eleanor of Aquitaine in 'The Lion In Winter'. Later, Cate Blanchett won the Best Supporting Actress for 'The Aviator' for her portrayal of...Katherine Hepburn!]

The show is set to be similar to Project Runway. The “Barbados Queen” will search Britain for the next great fashion star.

Cage Show: The Demi Moore 911 Call

jasoncage — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 00:16:37 +0000

TMZ got the audio today. Bruce Willis would not have stood for this.

A few notes when listening.

1. Sounds to us like she was taking Salvia Divinorum

2. I love how she is on the ground having convulsions and her friends are like “Should we tell him her real age?!?”

3. Is that Dane Cook that picks up toward the end of the call?
