Mariah Carey

"Suites fitted out with gold faucets. A new toilet seat must be installed before her arrival. Expensive French mineral water for her and her dog to bathe in." Also, "her own bed linens are flown in in advance."

Oh, and "on the two obligatory DVD players, only her own videos may be played." These are just a few of the demands of Mariah Carey made to already uber-posh hotels when she travels. New York Post Columnist Cindy Adams got the scoop straight out of the Austrian Hotel Association's "OHV Hotel Guide for 2005/2006." In the article "You Are the Star of Our Days" it lists certain requirements of stars. Here's more:

Mariah's buddy, Eminem, likes to keep things sophomoric. His demands include: Nintendo PlayStation, Ping-Pong table, basketball hoop, giant flat-screen TV, personal masseur, and fast food.

Bad boy Robert Iler was close to getting busted again yesterday when he walked into an illegal Upper East Side gambling den looking to play some poker. The NYPD was already there making arrests, and luckily, they busted the dealers, not the players.

According to PageSix, the dealers were arrested for promoting gambling, but Iler � who plays Anthony Soprano Jr. on the hit HBO series "The Sopranos," and a crowd of 30 others were let go after officers ran their IDs for outstanding warrants.

"Alias" Ratings Sink Without Vaughn, alias Michael Vartan

Posted by Fara Kearnes at 7:48 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 0 )

It's bad enough that "Alias" writers put themselves in such a pickle this season by making everyone ask "Why did Michael Vartan leave?" and "Is Vaughn really dead?", but they may have inadvertantly killed the show too by driving away its fanbase.

ABC moved the hit show to Thursdays where it has struggled to find viewers, especially after killing off the character of Vaughn in the first episode. Must watch TV? Not anymore. The Jennifer Garner show has become dull and as a result, has sank to an ultra low 70th place according to the Nielsen ratings, even scoring lower than the spectacularly bad "Joey" (68th).

But here's a wierd nugget this week: tvguide's askAusiello forum stated that there was a "major � major � development on the Vartan/Vaughn front: The deal officially closed late last week and Vartan returned to work on the 'Alias' set yesterday."

Yunjin Kim pic New York-raised South Korean Yunjin Kim is as famous as Julia Roberts in her home country, and now that she's a regular on the hit show "Lost" her fanbase has spread worldwide.

"I come into the airport now and there's always like 20 people waiting with photographs for me to sign," she says. While on the "Lost" set in Hawaii, Kim, 31, who plays the dutiful yet secretive wife Sun, talked with People about being single in real life, playing golf � badly � and her surprising wild streak.

How has the Asian community reacted to the show?
I know that in Koreatown in L.A., things practically shut down when the show is on because people want to tune in to see these two Koreans go at each other. I heard that people dressed up as Sun and Jin for Halloween last year, too.

Are Evangeline Lilly & Dominic Monaghan Engaged?

Dominic Monaghan & Evangeline Lilly pic Scores of male fans of the series "Lost" are waking up heartbroken this morning over rumors that the object of their affections, Evangeline Lilly, may be headed for the altar with co-star Dominic Monaghan.

The couple in real life have been denying all year that they've been dating, but InTouch Weekly is reporting they were spotted checking out engagement rings at posh jewelry on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, looking at rocks "in the $50,000" range.

Yet, Dominic seems so frightened by publicity of his relationship with the young goddess that he pouted and vowed three weeks ago, "I'm never going to get photographed with her again." That would suite Evi's fans just fine, since she's a natural beauty and he's, well, let's just say he was cast as a hobbit for a reason.

Daily Briefing: Beyonce in Cover Girl Skin Controversy

Beyonce pic Radar magazine is claiming that Vanity Fair actually lightened the skin of its latest cover girl, Beyonce. Access Hollywood investigated Beyonce's cover controversy.

Daniel Craig, the new James Bland, debuted himself as a bit of a wuss by arriving at a London press conference on a Royal Marine commando boat � wearing a life jacket. He then stunned reporters by admitting the boat ride scared "the (bleep) out of me," MSNBC reports.

The Daily Mail is reporting that nanny porker Jude Law is getting back together with ... with ... wait for it ... (drumroll) ...

So who did score the �100,000 for the phone video of Kate Moss snorting coke? Former Babyshambles manager says it wasn't him. But with only 14 people in the studio that day, and several of them on camera, you'd it would be easy to finger the Judas.

So what was the reason Ashton Kutcher did not inviting his twin brother Michael to his wedding with Demi Moore? Did Demi deem her new husband's family not worthy? Or was it because Michael's wife is also known to have A Big Mouth.

Tom Cruise Attracts Attention of Princess Di Biographer

Posted by Fara Kearnes at 7:25 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 5 )

Kate Holmes and Tom Cruise From Radaronline: If Tom Cruise thinks he�s had a rough time with American reporters, just wait until he sees what the Brits have in store for him." Andrew Morton, the notorious unauthorized biographer of the late Princess Diana, was in California last week researching his new book on Cruise and his relationship with Scientology.

While he was there, Morton interviewed Paul Berresi, who once told the National Enquirer he had a two-year affair with actor John Travolta, and who was harassed by the sect�s army of private eyes until he recanted the story.

An indefatigable reporter of the dumpster-diving variety, Morton, who has also penned bios of Monica Lewinsky and Madonna, is unlikely to succumb to such strong-arm tactics. After all, he was reportedly unfazed when thieves ransacked his London home for tapes and source material while he was writing about Princess Diana. And it sounds like Morton isn�t expecting a warm reception in Hollywood, either.

Did Nick Lachey Cheat With The College Student?

Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson The Joe Simpson publicity machine starring Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson is in full gear this fall as it continues to successfully manipulate the weekly tabloids. Us Weekly fell into his evil trap two weeks ago when it broke the "exclusive" story that the golden couple had split, which their publicity people deny. Hey, whatever puts them on the cover ...

Despite the fact that many insiders confirm the marriage is an act, Star magazine is taking another angle by reporting that Nick is staying with his friend, Matt Leinart, rather than sleeping at home.

"Nick's been sleeping on Matt's couch for about a week now. I've been to Matt's house, and I saw Nick there," the insider said. "Nick and Jessica are much more viable as a couple than they are as two individuals," another source told the Star.

Jennifer and Vince Are Just Friends. VERY Good Friends.

Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn appear to have finally confirmed they are a couple by making out in public, with juuuuust enough of a peek for the stalkerazzi to get a few shots of them together on a hotel balcony in Chicago.

They worked together on the movie "The Break Up" and have been linked romantically ever since, even though Jen has gone out of her way to deny it -- at least until the ink dried on the divorce papers and she was free of Brad Pitt.

According to imdb.com, new pictures published in The Daily Mirror indicate they are now officially an item - one shows the pair kissing on the balcony of the city's Peninsula Hotel while another, taken the same place the following morning, sees them enjoying a cup of coffee.
