Finally the sexy girl, Antonella Barba voted off the American Idol show on Thursday night, together with Jared Cotter, Sabrina Sloan, and Jason “Sundance” Head. After hearing the viewers’ decision, Barba became emotional as host Ryan Seacrest asked her what memories she would take with her.”So many memories, too many, I can’t even think about it now,” Barba said. “So many memories, but great ones.”

After her performance on Wednesday, Simon Cowell said, “I feel for you because you’ve taken a lot of stick in the media. I think you’ve handled yourself well throughout and I don’t think anyone should be put in that situation.”

The 20-year-old New Jersey has gained a huge following based more on pictures that surfaced on the internet than on her voice. By failing to make the final 12 Barba will be left off the American Idol cd that is produced each season. That may be a good thing for her as she has had several offers from varying adult web sites to become a spokesperson. Among the offers was a $250,000 gig as a Girls Gone Wild host.

After it was revealed that she would not be in the American Idol top 12, Barba addressed the issue at hand saying “These were photos of my personal life that got exploited without my consent.” more…

Britney Spears regained her previous crown of being the star most googled on the internet this year but, as usual, the results were often as not for making a spectacle of herself, and CNN’s Showbiz Tonight has now named her “Most Controversial Celebrity of the Year” for 2006.

She had tough competition from Mel Gibson, Michael Richards (Kramer from Seinfeld), and Naomi Campbell, but who stood a chance against someone who could score in so many diverse ways as Britney? Social Services came around to check on her parenting after her infant son supposedly fell out of his high chair, and drove with her infant son in her lap; she posed nude for the cover of Harper’s Bazaar while pregnant, filed for divorce just weeks after giving birth to Jayden James, had the police called while she was partying with Paris Hilton, danced with no pants in a nightclub, then famously wore no panties as paparrazzi snapped countless photos of her private parts as she got out of a car.

So, Britney gains one more ‘title’ partly based on her controversial parenting skills, adding to her prior title as World’s Worst Dog Owner according to a three-month online poll by readers of The New York Dog and The Hollywood Dog magazines. Magazine editor Hilary O’Hagan said, “Britney was the overwhelming choice. She once had three Chihuahuas and never left home without at least one of them on her arm. As soon as she met Kevin Federline and had kids they (the dogs) disappeared.”

Two days after Donald Trump gave Tara Conner a second chance, and said that he believes everyone deserves a second chance, he declined any second chance to Katie Rees, Miss Nevada 2007. Unlike Tara Conner, Ms Rees’ sins were graphic and inescapable - photos of her baring her bottom and her breasts, simulating oral sex with a male and females, and kissing other women, were posted to the website Canada.com. However, also unlike the sins of Tara Conner, those of Katie Rees occurred years ago, and long before she held any title.

“Katie Rees has been relieved of her duties as Miss Nevada USA 2007,” said Paula M. Shugart, president of the Miss Universe Organization, which owns the Miss USA pageant and others. Pageant officials declined to provide a telephone number for Rees and said they didn’t know when the photos of her were taken. more…
