Star Mag Reports Jessica Simpson one of Tigers Ladies

Another twist unravels in the Tiger Woods case as American singer Jessica Simpson is now linked with the star golfer.

According to Star magazine, the two had an encounter in July at the AT&T’s tournament after which they started seeing each other.

However Jessica slammed all accusations of the link saying, “Can’t believe that I’m on the cover of star magazine with Tiger Woods, what a JOKE! “The Shocking Inside Story” is A LIE!”

TMZ.com reported that Jessica “fired off” a nasty letter to the Star magazine, about the article that said how Woods “liked what he saw”. At that time she was dating American football star Tony Romo.

It is said that Tiger and Jessica flirted in the presence of Romo, and also exchanged text messages later. Another source close to Jessica says that the singer felt like Tony wasn’t paying attention to her, so she was like, “What the heck!”

“She decided to have fun with Tiger whether it bothered Tony or not,” the source added.
However, a source close to Jessica contradicts all rumors and says, “No part of this story is true.”

“They met quickly and took a photo together. She was only there for a few hours to sing the national anthem,” said the source.

It is believed Jessica was heartbroken when she broke off with Tony in July, the same month she met Woods. They broke off as Tony was busy with his career and the relationship had got difficult to sustain.

Tony, now seeing beauty queen Candace Crawford, is almost ready to walk down the aisle.

“Candice really likes Tony, but she has been very quiet about their relationship from the beginning. I’m sure he likes that, especially after how public things were between him and Jessica… Candice has kept her coworkers guessing about the ring too!” reported a source to Touch magazine.

Weezer Tour Cancelled After Crash

Today at 7:18 AM EST, about 40 miles West of Albany on I-90, the weezer tour bus carrying Rivers and his family and assistants lost control as it hit a patch of black ice. The driver employed every ounce of skill he had in fighting to keep the bus upright, as the vehicle violently fishtailed over the highway. And while the bus did indeed go off the road, plunging about 8-10 vertical feet into a muddy ravine off to the right of the Thruway thus coming to a very abrupt stop, it did not flip or roll, despite having plowed right over a guardrail, flattening it. Kudos to the driver for somehow keeping things as level as they could be - surely this story would have been far more tragic if not for his actions…..

Lil Wayne Expected to get 1-year in Jail

US rapper Lil Wayne faces a year in prison after pleading guilty to gun charges arising from a 2007 arrest.

The 27-year-old admitted attempted criminal possession of a weapon in a plea deal and will be sentenced at New York State Supreme Court in February.

The rapper - born Dwayne Michael Carter Jr - was arrested in July 2007 when a gun was found on his tour bus after a hip-hop concert in Manhattan.

His sixth album Tha Carter III was the best-selling album in the US in 2008.

The record won best rap album at the Grammy awards in February, where Lil Wayne picked up three other prizes.

Though, most people think his career will actually be enhanced, since the jail time will improve his street cred and he has recorded enough material to continue to release albums in his absence.

Chris Brown Announces New Tour: Rihanna releases new single

R&B singer Chris Brown announced a month long “fan appreciation” tour on Tuesday — the same day that ex-girlfriend Rihanna released a new single seen by some as evoking their stormy relationship.

Both Rihanna’s single “Russian Roulette” and Brown’s tour announcement were firsts since their relationship came to a violent end in February.

Brown, 20, was sentenced to five years probation and community service in August for a bloody attack on Rihanna, 21, on the eve of the Grammy Awards in February. He has since publicly apologized for the assault, but has remained largely out of the media spotlight.

Brown’s record company Jive said the “Kiss Kiss” singer would play small venues in 19 U.S. cities starting in Houston, Texas on November 14.

Billed a “fan appreciation tour” it is intended to thank his followers for their support, Jive said.

A portion of the proceeds will be donated to a Los Angeles domestic violence intervention charity called the Jenesse Center, and an organization providing friendships and jobs for people with developmental disabilities called Best Buddies International.
