Gossip / Rumors

Adam Lambert is cool as a cucumber on the outside, saying he's got no beef with Demi Lovato after she dumped him from her world tour for Nick Jonas.

Lambert took to Twitter Saturday, saying, "No beef tween Demi & Nick and me. Biz negotiations are complex- why do we care about the rumors?" However, an informed source close to Adam tells TMZ the singer was very disappointed he was dropped and his people are PISSED.

Adam also tweeted out a Demi song he was listening to with the caption, "I love this track."

Paris Jackson is adamant, the Instagram account posing as her that changed its last name to Jackson Castellaw isn't the real deal ... and she wants it shut down.

In a video posted to her bf Chester Castellaw's alleged page, Paris asks fans to help her get the impostor account -- which has racked up more than 200k followers -- removed. She claims she does not have a public profile.

It's interesting ... the video doesn't address marriage rumors but a source close to Paris says the two aren't married.

As TMZ reported ... fans began to buzz about Paris and her 18-year-old bf tying the knot after his last name was added to an IG account claiming to be her.

Paris Jackson has taken a new last name, raising some pretty obvious questions.

Michael Jackson's 17-year-old daughter just changed what appears to be her Instagram profile to Paris Jackson Castellaw.

Chester Castellaw is her boyfriend, an 18-year-old soccer player with Real So Cal.

There's no hyphen, but it still smells like she's saying she got married. Since she's a minor she'd have to get a sign off from her co-guardians ... either TJ Jackson or Katherine.

Nick Jonas was mum over Demi Lovato's decision to ax Adam Lambert on her tour and bring him along for the ride instead.

TMZ broke the story, Adam and Demi had essentially struck a deal that he'd tour with her, but we're told Demi's manager -- who also reps Nick -- convinced her to put his client in instead. Adam was unceremoniously dropped at the last minute, and his people feel betrayed and back-stabbed.

That said, Nick was awesome at the Wiltern in Hollywood Friday night, performing Drake's "Hotline Bling."

Kyle Richards says there no trace of Brandi Glanville on the set of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," and that's just fine by her.

Kyle echoed what her hubby Mauricio Umansky told us a few days ago ... there's no evidence Brandi's coming back to the show after getting the ax.

And Kyle was polite as ever, but it's not that hard to read the tea leaves .... she hates the bitch.

With nothing left to hide ... Morena Baccarin and Benjamin McKenzie are getting kinda touchy on the NYC set of "Gotham."

Even when cameras weren't rolling Thursday, Ben slipped in a little PDA with his baby mama.

Morena was wearing a baggy coat and scarf as they waited to shoot a scene ... so it doesn't look like they're working the pregnancy into a "Gotham" plotline.

Christina Milian and Lil Wayne still have their hands all over each other, a month after their break-up ... but it's all in a day's work.

Wayne grinded with a barely dressed Christina on the set of her new music video for "Do It." The video was shot last week in Miami and judging by photos it's hard to believe it's more business than pleasure.

Still, sources tell us they aren't getting back together, but remain friends ... so working this closely is not a problem. We're told the chemistry will always be there.

Easy to see why ...

Mauricio Umansky was first shocked and then scoffed at a new report claiming Brandi Glanville is making her triumphant return to "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills."

Mauricio was leaving Craig's in WeHo Wednesday night when our photog clearly surprised Kyle Richards' hubby, and he used all the vocal force he could muster to shoot it down.

Kyle and Brandi hate each other ... at least that's the way it played on the show.

Lamar Odom won Khloe Kardashian back by convincing her he would never do drugs again after hitting rock bottom.

Our sources tell us, Lamar told Khloe over the weekend he knew he cheated death, promising, "I am done with drugs." He also thanked her profusely for coming to Vegas and supporting him. He repeatedly told her that he loved her, and that was enough.

We're told Khloe made the decision right then to drop the divorce and nurse Lamar back to health.

TMZ broke the story ... Khloe's lawyer, Laura Wasser, went to court Wednesday and got the judge to dismiss the divorce case.

That all said, we're told not everyone in the Kardashian family thinks Khloe's decision is sound, because they've heard this from Lamar before.

Justin Bieber has figured it out ... when you're young and rich, hookups beat relationships every time.

Justin was hanging Wednesday at a pub in London with Elysandra Quinones, one of his backup dancers.

It's not hard to figure out the rest of the night.

Kate Hudson's agent made it clear ... holding hands does NOT equal banging.

Michael Kives was all smiles Tuesday at LAX, telling our photog he and Kate are just friends.

There's been various pics that have surfaced showing Kate and Michael all chummy, but he says she's a client and a friend, and that's it.

Kate's got younger fish to fry ... as in Nick Jonas.

University of Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino is calling out a former assistant coach ... claiming if Andre McGee hired hookers for players, he needs to come clean ASAP.

Pitino issued a new statement on the scandal after 5 former players/recruits told ESPN that they DID attend parties with strippers paid for by McGee -- the team's former graduate assistant coach.

"I don't know if any of this is true or not, there's only one person who knows the truth and he needs to come out and tell the truth to his teammates, to the University of Louisville, to his fans, and to his coaches that have taught him to do the right thing for years and allowed him to be part of something special here," Pitino said.

As we previously reported, a self-described "madam" has penned a book in which she claims McGee not only used her services to provide strippers at parties ... but he also paid for players to have sex with the women.

"If these things are not true, and I keep using the word if, there's only one person who can give these solutions to these problems. It's Andre McGee," Pitino said.

"It's time to give back to his team, his university and coaches and tell the NCAA the truth and tell everyone else who was at one time very proud of him the truth."

"He owes that to his parents, to his university, to his teammates and his coaches. This is not only an NCAA issue here. It's more than that. There's more to it. His teammates that believed in him, his coaches that believed in him, the community that believed in him, put our trust in him to do the right things."

Nick Jonas and Kate Hudson have shown all the signs of being coupled up -- traveling together, dining together, even Disney-ing together -- right up until she gripped another dude in NYC.

Kate was on her way to a premiere Monday night hand-in-hand with the other guy ... who, btw, happens to be her agent -- and also happens to have been spotted holding Kate tight multiple times in recent months.

Yes, Jonas and Hudson were spotted together in multiple places last month, and as recently as last weekend.

So, who's really winning the Kate sweepstakes? Since people in the know tell us Nick and Kate weren't dating, just hooking up -- we'll guess BOTH for the block.

Dave Chappelle is about to make comedy fantasies come true, because he's not saying "NO" ... to a possible dream team concert with Eddie Murphy.

There's more buzz than ever about Eddie possibly returning to the stage to do stand-up comedy after he killed it in D.C. over the weekend. Sooo ... lo and behold, we run into Chappelle who's also in D.C. and asked what he thought about an Eddie comeback, and who should join him?

Check out his response -- Dave's definitely down to play his part in what could be the greatest lineup ever! Question is ... who the hell's gonna pay??!!

Trey Songz is calling BS on the assistant principal who was fired for appearing in his music video, saying she knew every word on the track, "Best Friend."

Trey was leaving Henry's in WeHo Friday night, when he squarely took issue with Esther Adler-O'Keefe, who claims she had never heard the lyrics, which she says are "vulgar, offensive and demeaning."

Trey says he feels bad for her but she knew what she was getting into so it's on her for participating.

Kate Hudson and Nick Jonas are still going strong ... in a new location this time, but we'll bet the end result was the same -- banging.

Nearly a month after they hung out in Disney World and Miami together, they popped up at the same Tribeca hotel in NYC. What a coincidence??!!

Nick slyly walked in just a few minutes before Kate showed up looking ridiculously hot, by the way ... baring her rock hard abs.

Kate is definitely dressed for the occasion.
