Rihanna Revisits Past Headaches

Not only did she have to deal with being raised by a drug addicted father, Rihanna also endured years of CAT scans over worry that she had a brain tumor. With such a testing upbringing, success couldn’t have struck a more deserving young woman.

In a recent interview, the Umbrella songstress said that she had such severe headaches during her growing years that doctors thought she had brain tumor.  The ‘Unfaithful’ star underwent medical testing from the age of 8 up until she was 13 years-old.

Britney Spears’ Off The Wagon Warning

It seems that Britney Spears’ latest bar crawl was enough to make her AA leader feel the need to speak out on the matter.

John Sundahl, chairman of Britney’s AA chapter in LA, is quoted as saying: “I told her, ‘If you fall off the wagon, I don’t think you will live. If you don’t want to get sober for yourself, do it for your kids.’ “

Gwyneth Paltrow’s On The Injured List

Those crutches aren’t props, folks.  Shakespeare in Love star Gwyneth Paltrow has injured her knee, so much so that she had to have surgery.

Her publicist is keeping tight-lipped about how she sustained the injury, but maintains that she is on the mend.  “With some rest she will be fine.”

DNA Proves Eddie Murphy’s Paternity

Melanie Brown must be relieved.  She’s been telling press that Eddie Murphy is the father of her daughter, and now she has the test results to prove it.

“It is such a relief that this is finally over. Mel has known all along that Eddie is the father and can’t believe it has taken a paternity test to prove it,” said a source close to Brown.

Lindsay Lohan: “I’m Staying In Rehab”

Earlier this week, the Gossip Girls reported that Lindsay Lohan had finally canceled the 21st birthday extravaganza she had been planning in Las Vegas.  The kicker?  She’s ditching the party to extend her rehab stay.

That’s right, LiLo will forego partying in favor of a longer stint at Promises.  It appears that the former party queen of Hollywood is really serious about cleaning up her act.
