Need I say it? Not dialup friendly.

Kid Cudi was pulled over at gunpoint by police in a case of mistaken identity in Los Angeles yesterday (December 21).

The Day I Had a Gun Pointed at My Head by the LAPD
aka, some blogger at NME was also there when Cudi got arrested



Have you ever tried to climb over the back seat of a car without using your hands? It’s not easy. Particulary tricky, mind, when you’re trying to do so with an angry, shaven-headed American policeman screaming “KEEP YOUR TWO HANDS VISIBLE!” and pointing a gun at the back of your head through the rear window.

Once one of the music world's most prolific bloggers, the singer recently declared her conversion to become a "neo-Luddite".

She explained: "I just had this revelation that Facebook, blogging, all those things were becoming a total addiction. I'd be with my boyfriend or my mum and they'd have just got half of me.

If you thought Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Jerry Ferrara were going to last, you can just fuhgeddaboudit.

The two, who had been dating since October 2008, have decided to go their separate ways, according to a source close to the "Sopranos" actress.

Rumors started swirling when Sigler showed up solo for last Tuesday's screening of "It's Complicated" at the W Hotel in L.A.

"She came with a few girlfriends, and they drank wine all night. They looked like they were having a good time," a partygoer dished, confirming that Ferrara was nowhere in sight.

Sigler was next spotted out and about over the weekend in NYC with longtime pal Lance Bass. The two stopped by Susan Sarandon's Ping-Pong bar Spin in Gramercy on Thursday night and went shopping together in the Meatpacking District on Friday. Later that night, they checked out "Burn the Floor," which stars Bass' former "Dancing With the Stars" cohorts Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Kym Johnson.

"Lance is a really good friend to Jamie," the source says. "He's been helping her out and giving her good advice."

A partygoer at Spin noticed that Jamie-Lynn looked like she was having a blast with her bud.

"They were playing Ping-Pong and laughing, and it didn't seem like she was sad or anything was wrong. Lance was being really funny and entertaining her."

Our source says Sigler is indeed distressed about the split - which the snitch says was mutual - but adds that she's going to be just fine. "It came at a good time for Jamie-Lynn. She was coming home to New York for the holidays anyway, and she wanted to do her own thing for a little while and definitely be out of Hollywood."

Meanwhile, Ferrara spent his weekend gallivanting in L.A. - a spy inside West Hollywood hot spot Voyeur saw the HBO star enjoying himself on Saturday night with Kevin Connolly and quite a large female "Entourage."

"Kevin and Jerry arrived around 11 with a group of girls," a source inside the club said. "They were dancing and hanging out and didn't leave until after 2 a.m."

No word on whether Ferrara, who is originally from Brooklyn, will be coming home for the holidays as well ... but let's hope this city is big enough for the both of them.

Capping off a successful 2009, Muse appeared as the musical guest on 'Saturday Night Live' in an episode hosted by actor James Franco. The UK rockers performed 'Uprising,' the lead single off their latest album 'The Resistance,' as well as 'Starlight,' their hit single from 2006's 'Black Holes and Revelations.'

Although the band knew that playing 'SNL' was a great opportunity, drummer Dominic Howard confessed to Spinner that they're not exactly familiar with the show. "To be honest, none of us have ever really seen it before," he said before the taping. "I know it's this huge, big American institution and everyone watches it, so I'm looking forward to seeing what it's all about. I've seen a few like classic band performances on it, like Nirvana in '92. I'm excited to be doing it."

The gig marked only the band's second appearance on American television, following their performance of 'Uprising' at the MTV VMAs. Rather than play at Radio City, the trio recorded their gig at the nearby, Kanye-free Walter Kerr Theatre. "That particular thing was a really cool experience because we were in our own theater and effectively did our own gig," Howard said. "Even though it's only song that went out on the air for MTV, we actually played for about an hour and filled the whole place up with like 900 fans. It was a really fun experience."

Fresh off a tour opening for U2, Muse next heads to Asia and Australia before returning to North America for a headlining tour in late February. In the meantime, check out clips of their 'SNL' performances below.

Though Lisa Loeb rose to fame as a singer, she’s probably just as well known for her eyeglasses. Loeb is finally cashing in on her signature look, partnering with Classique Eyewear on a line of frames called “The LL Collection.” “People have been asking me about my eyewear style for years. Finally I decided – why not design my own line – so other people can see the world like I do,” she says. The new series includes streamlined pieces in black and tortoiseshell, as well as embellished options punctuated with rhinestones and etchings. “I worked with Classique Eyewear to design a line that represents the look I love: one that can be worn from day into night, that’s classic but stylish, that frames the face and lifts the eyes, but doesn’t speak before you have a chance to,” she declares. The star goes on to describe her aesthetic: “My eyewear generally has a cat-eyed look. Think sexy librarian, not retro grandma,” and says that her new collection was created largely for “women with style,” but that “some frames are more unisex and could look cute on stylish men, too!” Each item is named after one of her songs, and will be available for purchase in spring of next year.

Another couple from The Hills is reality-TV history. Brody Jenner and Jayde Nicole have broken up after about 15 months together, a source close to Jenner confirms to UsMagazine.com.

Nicole, 23, hinted at the split on her Twitter around 8pm Dec. 18 with a wistful entry: "'Sometimes when you truly love someone you have to let them go.....' I never really understood that quote until now."

The night before, however, the former Playboy Playmate was feeling festive. A source tells UsMagazine.com that Nicole "celebrated her breakup" with a 12-strong crew of girlfriends at Hyde Lounge in West Hollywood.

She’s always up to something, and last night (December 21) Lindsay Lohan was spotted leaving the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel en route to the Van Nuys airport to catch a flight to New York City.

The “Labor Pains” actress flashed a quick smile for the paparazzi as she hopped into a chauffeured car, sporting some seriously spray-tanned feet.

As for the tragic death of Brittany Murphy, LiLo took to her Twitter page to express her grief as well as honor Murphy’s memory.

Lindsay tweeted, “My deepest condolences go out to all of Brittany Murphy’s loved ones and may she rest in peace… She was a great talent w/a beautiful soul xo.”

If you've been meaning to check out Lady Gaga's Monster Ball Tour, but haven't found the time yet, get thee to a Stub Hub, stat. Because after she wraps the U.S. leg of the jaw-dropping jaunt in January, Gaga is planning on scrapping the entire thing in favor of a brand-new show, which she'll unveil during her run of U.K. arena shows the following month.

It may sound crazy — and certainly, those close to the singer maintain it is — but, as Gaga sees it, re-vamping the Monster Ball Tour is just something she has to do, especially since the current version of the tour came together at the very last second.

( 'This is definitely going to bring [showbiz] back,' Gaga says. )

TBH her statements on what she plans to do with changing her shows and making it even better, for her tour, seem vague. BUT, I can't wait to see what she does next.

When we last saw Betty Draper, she was on a plane to Reno with Henry Francis by her side. Was that the end of her story, especially since Don Draper’s undoubtedly going to go on without her? Well, Matthew Weiner doesn’t like to give away much about the future, but January Jones has renewed her contract with Mad Men.

Weiner confirmed it and spoke about some other bits and pieces from the Mad Men finale. He was in a giving mood. It wasn’t just the holiday season, either. Mad Men had a great week in award nominations — Golden Globes, Writers Guild and Screen Actors Guild.

First, Betty — I mean January. According to Weiner, “January’s contract has been renewed.” As for Betty as a character, Weiner referred to one of his writers, Lisa Albert, explaining that the relationship with Henry is crucial to Betty. “Betty will go through this process while learning the least amount possible.” Despite the fact that Betty and Henry have yet to make love, they are heading to a wedding. It seems improbable in today’s sensibility, but Weiner’s story is set in 1963.

Why would Betty want Henry? “He’s a handsome guy who says, ‘You’ll never have to work again.’ A lot of women like that. … Henry has been good to her, and I think she knows what he’s about, and he’s a very exciting person for her. I think he’s the anti-Don in the sense that he seems very grounded. All I can tell you is that, as a pregnant woman, when he treated her sexually at a party, something happened in her brain chemistry.”

Brittany Murphy and Dakota Fanning may never escape to Coney Island together again, but that doesn't stop the younger of the two from sharing warm fuzzies about their time together.

"I got to know Brittany when we made the film Uptown Girls," the New Moon cutie said in a statement. "We became great friends despite the fact we were many years apart in age. Brittany had such a warm child-like spirit that drew people to her. With her goes a piece of my heart and I will miss her terribly. I know how strong Brittany's love was for her family and my heart goes out to all of them, especially her mother Sharon. I love you Brittany."
