Katie Holmes and Nicole Kidman have awkward run-in

OHMYGOSSIP — Katie Holmes had an “awkward” run-in with Nicole Kidman during a recent visit to a Los Angeles bar. The past and present Mrs. Tom Cruises apparently tried to dodge each other when they came face-to-face at Hollywood private members club Soho House.

“When Katie walked upstairs to the lounge, she saw Nicole and immediately looked away like she was trying very hard to avoid eye contact with her. It was like she was taken off guard — it was like a standoff!” a source said.

“They didn’t even say hi. It was so awkward! She [Nicole] just looked at Katie, then looked away. But after Katie noticed Nicole in the lounge, she quickly walked to the patio area.”

Katie recently revealed she wants to travel the world with her daughter, Suri.

“I feel ready for the next chapter of my life,” she said. “I’m excited to begin a new phase: roles I might have been afraid to play before, places I want to travel to with my daughter. I’d like to build the design business. But not too fast.”

Bobby Brown tells the ugly truth about Whitney Houston

OHMYGOSSIP — The April 2 issue of National Enquirer features the cover stories of Bobby Brown coming clean about Whitney Houston and Bobbi Kristina getting pregnant by her step brother, Nick Gordon.  

Bobby Brown was with Whitney during her most intensive periods of drug abuse – since he was using right along with her – and he knows where all the skeletons are hidden.  Ironically Bobby did not introduce Whitney to HARD DRUGS – as she was already using before she met her future husband.
 
Bobby is terrified that daughter Bobbi Kristina will discover the terrifying hard core drug tapes he made with her mom while married to Whitney.  Rather than deal with his daughter’s inevitable reaction to seeing the tapes he is trying to take a proactive approach.
 
But seeing tapes of her mom is looking to be the least of Bobbi K’s concerns.  The cover of the Enquirer reports that is Bobbi Kristina is getting married to Nick – but even worse – Whitney’s daughter is already pregnant!  If this turns out to be true then we will need to consider a conservatorship for Bobbi K!
 
Also on the cover is Cher’s fury over Adele’s snub – why would Adele snub Cher – after all she resembles Chaz, can you see that?
 
The Enquirer promises to go into detail about Rosie’s explosion upon learning that Oprah canned her.

Kris Humphries: Kim Kardashian wants to destroy me

OHMYGOSSIP — Kris Humphries claims Kim Kardashian is trying to damage his reputation. In a statement by Kris’ lawyer — which was released to Life & Style magazine — it’s alleged Kim is trying to make the world think the sportsman is a terrible person.

“Much effort and energy to misdirect the public’s perception of what transpired between Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries has taken place over the past several months,” said the lawyer.

“This case will not be resolved in the court of public opinion amidst ridiculous and defamatory allegations and personal attacks directed against Kris Humphries. Rather, this case will be appropriately investigated and litigated professionally and with integrity.”

Despite reports claiming that Kris is demanding a $7 million settlement to stay silent, “No demands have been made,” insists Kris’ legal team, which includes general counsel Lee A. Hutton III of Lommen Abdo and family law experts Marshall Waller and Sandra Salinas of Feinberg & Waller.

“While we are encouraged to see an apparent willingness by the other side to put big numbers out in an attempt to settle Mr. Humphries’ claims, we respect and will continue to observe the integrity of the legal process.”

“One thing is certain: Kris Humphries intends to set the record straight,” his lawyers assert.
