Still Hurts said Miley Cyrus


Miley Cyrus who has another season of Disney show "Hannah Montana" on tap, along with a "Montana" movie was quick to cast herself as more than just a singing, dancing, acting wunderkind.


She was "embarrassed" by the brouhaha earlier this year over her Vanity Fair photos but thinks her fans realize that she's only human.

"I don’t think people will look at me any differently because they’re like, 'You know what, I’m going to do stupid stuff too, and I’m going to make mistakes, and that’s fine,'" she adds.

She says she is super blessed that she is a role model for young girls but that doesn’t mean that I’m not going to make mistakes and do things that everyone’s going to be happy with there's no such thing as perfection.


The 15-year-old singer who is about to finish shooting the upcoming Hannah Montana movie in Nashville says she doesn't plan on playing the character forever.

Sarah Jessica Parker: Single Again?


Taking Carrie Bradshaw to the big screen proved a shrewd move for Sarah Jessica Parker – the Sex and the City movie's so far raked in more than $300 million – and now she's eyeing the role of another single urban professional.

Sarah Jessica Parker, 43, is in discussions with Warner Bros. about a screen version of novelist Karen Quinn's The Ivy Chronicles, described by the Hollywood Reporter as an up-to-date take about class and the single woman in Manhattan – though unlike Bradshaw, title character Ivy Ames moves out of the Upper East Side after the double whammy of a job loss and a divorce.

She has to withdraw her children from their expensive private school, though they also provide her with a eureka moment: Ames starts a service to help women land their kids in upper-crust kindergartens.

The trade paper likens The Ivy Chronicles to The Devil Wears Prada meets The Nanny Diaries, with a dash of the TV mini-series The Starter Wife thrown in.

Jerry Weintraub, the honcho behind the Ocean's Eleven franchise, is poised to produce.

Solange's 22nd Birthday, Beyoncé Knowles threw a dance party


Beyoncé Knowles threw a dance party for Solange's 22nd birthday Monday night that brought out pals Ludacris, Ne-Yo, Mario and Destiny Child's Michelle Williams.

Guests danced to tracks like Prince's "Kiss" and Bob Marley's "Could You Be Loved" spun by Lindsay Lohan pal DJ Samantha Ronson, as the birthday girl grabbed a microphone and called people to the floor.

On Solange's request, Ronson kept the tunes in the family, playing nearly every hit in Beyoncé and husband Jay-Z's catalogs including "Big Pimpin'" (as Solange played a tambourine and Beyoncé showed off her best moves) and "Dirt Off Your Shoulder." When Beyoncé's "Get Me Bodied" played, revelers circled around the Knowles sisters as they reenacted dance moves from the song's video.

Champagne flowed as guests noshed on barbecue chicken, cornbread, greens and mac and cheese (served buffet-style). Rock band Chester French took the stage playing an instrumental version of "What About Dre," and finished their set with a rocked out version of "Happy Birthday." Cupcakes with large white candles were passed through the crowd as everyone sang to Solange, who blew out the candles and banged on her tambourine.
