Is Mila Kunis trying to get out of her Marine Corps Ball date?

fp_7256279_ted_boston_fp7_06_27


On Monday, we had the story about Mila Kunis’s reaction to a video request from a Marine stationed in Afghanistan. Sgt. Scott Moore put a video on YouTube asking Mila to be his date for the Marine Corps. Ball in November. Mila was told about the video while doing press for Friends With Benefits, and Justin Timberlake persuaded Mila to accept the invitation. While her acceptance didn’t look super-official or anything, I thought that she would probably keep her word. But now Gawker reports this odd little story from Access Hollywood (I can’t find the video, but you can see it here at Gawker) – Billy Bush claims that Mila won’t be going to the Ball because she has work commitments. BUT – Bush’s claim doesn’t look definite either, and even though Mila might have work commitments, surely she can get a day off to fly to North Carolina, right? Or will Mila find some way to get out of it, just because she didn’t appreciate being put on the spot like that?


Meanwhile, Sgt. Moore, who is still in Afghanistan, heard that Mila accepted his invite, and he gave an interview to explain how the now-infamous video came to be:



Sgt. Scott Moore, the Marine in Afghanistan who will be taking Black Swan actress Mila Kunis to the Marine Corps Ball in November, spoke out Tuesday about why he invited the actress in the first place.


“The idea behind my YouTube invitation to Mila Kunis came about after some Marines from 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marines, and I were hanging out talking,” Moore said in a statement. “One of the Marines bet that I wouldn’t make the video and post it. Of course, a bet between Marines must be honored, so I took the chance. You can’t make shots that you don’t take, so I took the best shot I could.


“The Marines of 3/2, my family and friends back home in Grove City, Pa. have been so supportive, and did a great job of getting the video a lot of attention,” he said. “I’m very excited about the opportunity to share the experience with Ms. Kunis and would like thank her for accepting my offer.”


Over the weekend, Kunis said yes while doing publicity for her upcoming film, Friends with Benefits, with Justin Timberlake. Apparently it was Timberlake who encouraged Kunis to agree.


“JT and I had this all planned from the start. He’s been a great wingman; it’s nice to know he can get over the jealousy to help a brother out (just kidding),” Moore said. “Justin Timberlake’s encouragement definitely helped; I owe him one.”


In an e-mail sent to ABC News, Moore admitted that taking Kunis to the ball was a long shot.


“We all talk about what we are going to do when we get back, and this was my dream,” he said. “I do feel bad for putting her on the spot, but it’s not like I was going to bump into her on the streets of Musa Qala between now and the ball.”


Instead, Moore, a data systems technician with the 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, currently stationed in Musa Qala, Afghanistan, set up a YouTube page called “Go With Me Mila” and posted a brief video asking the 27-year-old actress to accompany him to the ball on Nov. 18 in Greenville, N.C.


“I always thought I had a chance, and sometimes that’s all you need,” Moore said in a statement.


This year’s ball will be special, not just because Kunis is his date, but also because its the 236th birthday of the Marine Corps and his unit will be home from Afghanistan, Moore said. As for any special plans he has in store for Kunis, “I think I’ll keep that a secret for now; we have to iron out the details.”


[From KNSS Radio]


Yeah… this guy is super-excited. GO WITH HIM, MILA. Don’t cop out. I thought you were cool.


Also: JT got his own invite from a female Marine, Cpl. Kelsey De Santis. She’s not overseas, though! She’s stationed at Quantico, but she wants JT to be her date for the Marine Corps Ball in DC. I don’t find her video as charming as Sgt. Moore’s.

Report: 'Jersey Shore' Star Vinny Moves Back In

He's back!

'Jersey Shore' star Vinny Guadagnino has reportedly moved back into the MTV shore house after abruptly packing his bags and heading home to Staten Island last week.

According to TMZ, the reality star enjoyed dinner and drinks Saturday night at the shore with his former roommates, who banned together in an attempt to woo Guadagnino back into the house.

Though he had said he was done with 'The Jersey Shore' forever, Snooki & Co.'s plan apparently worked, because he is reportedly back on board with the MTV show.

The cast, who just returned from filming Season 4 in Italy, was put right to work on the fifth season back in New Jersey.

"Seeing his family the other day made him get a little homesick," a source told Us Weekly. "[With] Vinny being the youngest of the bunch, it's a long time to be away from his family. He left and is home [in Staten Island]. I don't think he will be back."

But Guadagnino wasn't the only cast member apparently fed up with the show. Mike 'The Situation' Sorrentino stirred up reports that he was headed home as well last week.

David Beckham Plays Paparazzi With Wife Victoria (Photo)

Isn't that sweet?

David Beckham pulled a paparazzi move on his own wife, snapping a photo of the very pregnant Victoria Beckham and shared it with the world.

The soccer hunk posted the photo on his Facebook page, captioning it " Took this pic of Victoria while she wasn't looking. She looks so amazing. So close to the baby being born!"

The tiny-framed, former Spice Girl looks ready to pop as she relaxes in the sunshine. The beautiful Brits are expecting their fourth child, a little girl, any moment now.

The pair announced they were expecting in January of this year. They already have three sons, Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, 8, and Cruz, 6.

Reality Bites: Paris Hilton Under Guard at The Grove

Countering her recent stalker scare, Paris Hilton arrived to The Grove with beefed-up security shielding her every move, as paparazzi scrambled beside them.

Hilton told "Extra's" Mario Lopez, "It is scary because you don't know what frame of mind these people are in. They keep getting in trouble... they keep coming back, and this is now the fourth time for this guy."

"I've been so scared that I have to put a whole new security system in, I have to have armed guards on the beachfront and on PCH to guard my house."

The stalker, James Rainford, was spotted looking inside the reality star's Malibu home on Fourth of July weekend. He was arrested after Paris called police.

Paris' Stalker Is Cuffed!

The star of "The World According to Paris" also revealed she made a visit to a psychic with pal Brooke Mueller. "I did talk to the psychic," Hilton said, adding, "I asked her if the last guy I was with [Cy Waits] was the one, and she didn't really answer, so..." Mario chimed in, "That was the answer."

Paris replied, "I think she was right."

Marine Asks Justin Timberlake to the Dance

Now, it's Justin Timberlake's turn.

The "Friends with Benefits" actor urged co-star Mila Kunis to accept an invitation from a U.S. Marine, Sgt. Scott Moore to attend the Marine Corps Ball on Nov. 12 in Washington, D.C. "Do it for your county," Timberlake said during their interview with FOX News.

justin-timberlake.jpg

Now, Cpl. Kelsey De Santis, a Marine based at Quantico, VA has posted a YouTube video asking Timberlake to the ball. Watch!

Described as the only woman serving at the Martial Arts Center for Excellence at Marine Corps Base Quantico, De Santis added some humor to her proposal. "If you can't go, all I can say is cry me a river. Hit me up."

No word yet on Timberlake's response.

'CSI' Casting Mystery Solved: Ted Danson on the Case

Actor Ted Danson will be taking over for Laurence Fishburne as the lead detective on "CSI."

ted-danson.jpg

Danson will play a supervisor, joining the team as they are still grappling with the fallout from last season's take-down of serial killer Nate Haskell.

"You can create a new character on the page, but until the perfect actor comes along and breathes life into it, it's just words," said executive producer Carol Mendelsohn. "We're very excited Ted Danson came along."

Ted takes the role after an extensive search by CBS to find another qualified star with enough experience and acting chops to help boost the show, now on its 12th season. Offers reportedly went out to Tony Shaloub, Robin Williams and John Lithgow before the part went to Danson, who recently starred alongside Glenn Close in the highly successful legal drama, "Damages."

"CSI's" new season begins in September.

Royal Couple Shines at Star-Studded BAFTA Gala (Photos)

Talk about a star-studded event!

Prince William
and Kate Middleton have captured L.A.'s attention these past few days and the City of Angels celebrated the Royal Couple at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts 'Brits to Watch 2011' gala Saturday night.

The Duchess of Cambridge looked stunning -- yet again! -- on the red carpet outside the Belasco Theater in a lilac chiffon gown by Alexander McQueen and earrings on loan from Queen Elizabeth herself, according to Us Weekly.

The Royal Couple certainly got their fill of Hollywood at the celebrity-packed event, meeting stars like Jennifer Lopez, Blake Lively, Barbra streisand, Elizabeth Banks, Ed Westwick, Mary-Louise Parker, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, Jennifer Garner, Nicole Kidman, Jason Bateman -- just to name few.

Eric Dane, Rebecca Gayheart Expecting Second Child

Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart already have a toddler at home, and now the actors are going to be parents for a second time.

The couple is expecting their second child, a source confirmed to PEOPLE.

The 'Grey's Anatomy' actor and Gayheart, who were married in 2004, welcomed their first daughter, Billie Beatrice, in March 2010.

"I don't know if there's any change more significant that a human being can make than that of a woman becoming a mother. There's no change more dramatic," Dane gushed to PEOPLE about his wife earlier this spring.

"You know, I'm a hundred times more attracted to her now and I love her exponentially more than I did before. It's just great to see her be a mother," he said.

'Hollywood It Girl' Sex Tape Exposed

Former cocktail waitress Jasmine Waltz, who briefly dated David Arquette after he split with wife Courteney Cox, is the star of a sex tape being released on the Internet, TMZ reports.

Waltz claimed she didn't know the video -- called "Hollywood It Girl" and made with an unnamed boyfriend - was, er, going wide. "I'm absolutely shocked that the public is now going to see what I made with my boyfriend on Valentine's Day," she told TMZ.

And she's humble, too. "I'm not even famous, which blows my mind even more. I'm just a girl in Hollywood."

Another day, another sex tape.

Schwarzenegger's Next Movie Role and Book Deal

Marking his return to the big screen following the governorship, a lovechild scandal and divorce filing, Arnold Schwarzenegger is preparing for a role as a sheriff in "The Last Stand," in which he will confront a Mexican drug cartel.

Thom Geier, Senior Editor at Entertainment Weekly, speculates, "He's been away from Hollywood for a long time. Coming back for him is going to be a risk, no matter what."

arnold-schwarzenegger.jpg

As Schwarzenegger readies for his big screen return, many are anticipating Maria Shriver's next move. Publishers are said to be jockeying in hopes of getting Shriver to pen a tell-all, reportedly offering the mother-of-four a $15-million book advance, although nothing has been signed... yet.

"Extra" reported last month that Arnold signed a major deal with a top NY publishing house, with investigative journalist Ian Halperin revealing of the forthcoming book, "It's gonna deal with a lot of his early life... coming to America as a bodybuilder, also his years as an actor, a politician, and of course, the publisher is pressing him to release all the salacious details about his personal life with Maria Shriver."

On Tuesday, Arnold and his son Patrick caused quite the frenzy while lunching at The Grove's La Piazza. The father-son duo stopped by to chat with "Extra's" Mario Lopez after his interview with Paris Hilton. Patrick, who was on his second day or work at The Grove as a business intern, later tweeted, "Caught up with @MarioLopezExtra and @parishilton at grove today and coincidentally my job had me work security for them. Funny day."

Nick Cannon on the Diamond Baby Gift He Gave Mariah

"America's Got Talent" host Nick Cannon stopped by The Grove to talk with "Extra" correspondent Terri Seymour about the twins... and the gorgeous diamond necklace he gave to wife, Mariah Carey.

"It says Moroccan and Monroe in pink and white diamonds," explained Cannon. "My wife has so much jewelry, so I've got be really creative when I give gifts."

The proud papa said the twins are growing so fast. "My son Roc lives up to his name. He's a tough guy. He's already crawling. And then my daughter, she's just a diva."

As for having more kids, Cannon isn't opposed to it. "I want some, but I think my wife's done. I tried to say, 'Yo, let's go for another round!' and she's like, 'I'll kill you!'"

On rumors Mariah might join "The X-Factor" as a mentor, Cannon hedged, "You know what? I'm just the husband, I don't know."

Chloe Sevigny Says Goodbye to Her Blonde Locks (Photos)

Chloe Sevigny has shed her blonde locks, taking on a much darker hue.

The 'Big Love' alum was snapped on the set of her next project, "Hit and Miss" in Manchester, UK on Friday, sporting her new 'do. The new Sky Atlantic HD series sounds like it will be an exciting new role for the 36-year-old star.

Sevigny, never one to stray away from controversial roles, -- she played one of Bill Paxton's wives in HBO's polygamy based hit "Big Love" -- will portray the character of Mia, a pre-op transsexual who also happens to be a contract killer. Sounds dark and dramatic, making the dye job all the more fitting.

This darker look suits the normally natural blonde, what are your thoughts on her hair color switch?

Rihanna Sets Concert On Fire -- Literally! (Video)

We all know that Rihanna brings the heat on the stage, but no one expected her concert to literally burst into flames Friday night.

The singer was performing her Loud Tour in Dallas at the American Airlines Center when some pyrotechnics went haywire during her song, 'California King Bed,' according to Celebuzz.

Rihanna left the stage when a fire broke out above her stage fireworks began to fall down -- cutting her set list short and ending the show early. Due to the obvious safety concerns, the entire crowd was evacuated from the building and no injuries were reported.

The singer took to Twitter to address the incident.

"DALLAS!!! We set the stage on FYAH tonight!!! LITERALLY!!! I'm so pissed, I was havin so much fun wit yall too!!! I gotta come back man!!," she wrote, adding, "yall CRAY!!! Love this f***n place! Glad u guys are safe!!!"

Which 'Bridesmaids' Star Is About to Lose Her Home?

'Bridesmaids' may have been a slam dunk at the box office, but not all of the film's stars are rolling in the dough these days. Singer Carnie Wilson is reportedly facing a foreclosure on her L.A. home.

According to documents from the L.A. County Recorder's Office obtained by TMZ, Wilson has defaulted on her mortgage and still owes a whopping $1.6 million on her house.

Unless she quickly pulls together the cash, Wilson's house will hit the auction block in just a matter of days.

Wilson, who recently appeared with fellow Wilson Phillips members Wendy Wilson and Chynna Phillips in 'Bridesmaids,' also made headlines last fall due to her weight.

The singer was reportedly fired as spokeswoman for a food delivery service called Fresh Diet when it was revealed she actually gained weight while using the service.

But Wilson didn't let the snub get her down, telling PopEater's Rob Shuter in December that she's over it.

"I'm fat as f**k, what can I say?" she said. "You know, after all these years, it's just like we are who we are and it's a struggle for me and sometimes I'm heavier and sometimes I'm thinner."

Elin Nordegren's New Romance Heats Up in Sweden

Tiger's ex, Elin Nordegren, has a secret boyfriend! Well, not anymore.

elin-nordegren.jpg

The 31-year-old has been having cozy rendezvous with a new man at her luxury apartment in Stockholm, reports Swedish Newspaper, Expressen.

According to sources close to Nordegren, her new mystery man is an American who works in finance. Although he resides in New York City, he takes frequent business trips to Sweden. He is described as being in his mid-thirties and very handsome.

On Tuesday, the two were spotted outside Elin's home, which she and Tiger purchased together back in 2005. The home is on the market for $20 million.

Saying their goodbyes, the pair kissed and hugged before her beau stepped into a taxi and headed for the airport. A witness said it looked as if he had trouble using his credit card to pay the cab fare, so Nordegren offered to pay.

After he left, Elin hopped in a separate taxi and headed to her summer house in Vaxholm, where her children Sam and Alexis are staying.

FRESH FACE: YBF Chick Miss London 2011 Rissikat Bade!

We love a YBF fresh face.  And here’s one from across the pond.  Rissikat Bade was crowned Miss London recently….and she’s readying for the Miss World pageant.  But she says since no modeling agencies would hire her, she decided to go get a law degree instead.

Learn more about the pageant queen inside…

Rissikat is from Brixton and is a 21 year-old Nigerian law student.  She moved to Southbank London at 16 after years of studying in Ukraine. And since the next for any beauty queen is the next level of crowning, you would think she would be all in to win the Miss England (finale takes place on July 19th) and then later the Miss World title.  Especially being that not many YBF chicks get this opportunity.

But instead, she told the London Evening Standard that since she was rejected by hundreds of modeling agencies (aside from the contract she won from Muse Management UK as part of her prize), her priority is her law degree:

"I definitely plan to continue with my law study. I never thought of I would drop my university study for anything. Education is important to me and it’s important for a good life I think in general.

"I’m not saying university is the only way to get a job or be successful, but I do think education is a good thing if you can afford it."

"If I get offered any more contracts I will try to balance both. I’m studying law because it’s something I like to study, I just did an
internship and I really enjoyed it.

"I’m trying to keep my options open for after university but if I can do something practical and creative that would be my dream."

And for those who criticize pageants, she says:

"None of the entrants I have met are bimbos, all the girls have to show something more than their beauty. There is nothing wrong with celebrating beautiful women trying to promote their country and trying to be good role-models.

"Miss England is not like any fashion show where you just walk down the catwalk, you have to be able to speak in public and show something more than your looks."

So she’s still on the fence on whether or not she will actually compete in the higher pageant.

I think she’s gorge and hopefully will do both jobs of pursuing her law degree as well as her higher title.  Good luck to Rissikat!

Kevin James on Bear Musk, Cher and Mets Futility


In 'The Zookeeper,' a lovable menagerie of zoo animals break their omerta in order to assist their lovable zookeeper (played by Kevin James) find love without leaving them behind. The 46-year-old comedian talked to PopEater about what it was like working with wild animals and his love for the Mets (he named his second daughter Shea). We even made him admit that he'd toss his long time pal Ray Romano into the sea for Adam Sandler.
What were the animals like working with?
They were all very good. It was a little scary at first because you're out there with them and they can just turn on you in one second and you're just trusting your trainer knows them, that they're going to be good but they were all really great. The one I was really scared of was the wolf. I had to shampoo him and he didn't know me and he was kind of looking at his owner and then looking back at me as I was shampooing him, like who is this guy and that was a little frightening for me. There's always that element of it being a little frightening that they're there and there's nothing in front of you. At that point you just start thinking, I don't have to be the fastest, I just can't be the slowest. If I can beat someone else they can get eaten.

The capuchin monkey was also in 'The Hangover 2.'
She is a diva. First of all we shot our movie before 'The Hangover' but we're released later so it looks like we're following them but they followed us. I don't even know how that movie did. Did it make any money?

Um I don't think so.
Ok then so whatever. No one even saw that movie. Yeah she would wait for me to get on set before she left the trailer, couldn't make eye contact with her.

Any smell that surprised you?
I honestly didn't know that bears had a smell like that. They seem cuddly but I was working with them and a musk came out of them. It was a definite smell that they have, it kind of shocked me, it wasn't so great.

You co-wrote the movie and star in it. Did you also do the catering?
I did a little catering. By the way that was one of the things that annoyed me. You can't have food on a set with animals because they can smell it and it will distract them. If you want a Snickers bar you've got to drive off set. If I would have known that I never would have done this movie. That's one of the things where you go, 'What?!' No one told me this when we were writing this.

How did you get Cher to do the movie?
She read the script!

So are you BFF's with Cher now?
I went and saw her show in Vegas. It was great. I didn't get a shout out but I did get a lot of glitter on me.

Were you the only straight guy there?
I think I might have been. There was a huge, huge, huge crowd that was not heterosexual I will say that, I think ... I'm basically sure. I'm guessing but yeah I think it's a safe guess.

Getting Adam Sandler must have been very difficult.
Yes it was difficult. It was phone call after phone call. It was literally, 'You're doing this,' 'Okay.'

Do you hang out a lot?
We do honestly, we do. Ever since we shot 'Chuck and Larry,' we've become really close friends. It's great to have somebody whose been through this business and been successful for 15, 20 years, just banging them out and giving me great advice ... but more importantly his friendship.

Whose a better friend, Sandler or Romano?
Um, they're both great friends and I've learned a lot from both of them but at this moment I hang out with Sandler a lot more but Ray's awesome. I do my standup with Ray, we have a great time as well.

Hypothetical.So the three of you are in a rowboat and you can only save one of them.
Romano's going. I got to save Sandler. Sandler feeds my kids. Ray doesn't do anything. Ray can't help me. What's he going to do? Put me on his little TV show? Come on! I don't need his stuff now. He helped me, he put me on 'Everybody Loves Raymond' once.

You're a Mets fan. Must be hard.
Why are you a Mets fan?

No, Yankees.
First of all ... with that accent?

Actually my football team in Australia was always the loser team.
So then you should be a Mets fan.

I thought for once ...
Oh, where life is easy and you buy all your championships? Actually I'm not a Yankees hater but yes, we are struggling.

Can't you say that every year?
We were in it for a while and then we had some insane fall downs. We just crumbled, we don't have a lot.

Academy Award or seeing the Mets win the World Series?
Listen I don't think either of them are happening so if I can dream, I'm going to go to the Mets series.

You've thrown out first balls right?
Yes! It's fun except when you skip it in the dirt. I've got an arm too so it's not like I can't make it. I can throw some heat but I get so nervous and they said to me the last time I did it, 'Whatever you do don't throw it in the dirt, just throw it high.' And in my windup behind the catcher I see a bunch of old ladies and people gathering and I'm thinking I can't throw high I'll kill someone so I ended up skipping it.

Why can't you skip it?
Because it looks like you can't make it to the plate.

Looks like you're throwing like a girl.
Exactly.

Nicki Minaj Issues Denial Of Assault

 

We told you yesterday that a man allegedly assaulted Nicki Minaj at a hotel in Dallas and the cops were called. But now Nicki is pretty much saying the story is untrue. Read her denial inside…..

We found out yesterday that Nicki Minaj and an "unidentified man," whom she shared a room with, got it poppin’ with a hostile argument at a hotel in Dallas and the police were called. 

The story being tossed around was that Nicki was hit in the lower lip by the man she is "not in a relationship with" but "shared a room with."

Via her Twitter page, Nicki had this to say:

The fact that u believe a man either slapped or punched me in the face & didn’t leave on a stretcher w/his balls hangin off? #getaF%cknLife    

Then…..

The media could pee on ur leg & tell u its raining. You’d believe it. You’d believe u were an adopted martian if TMZ told u so. #stopit5

Crazier things have happened then people denying incidents like this–and it turning out to be true anyway.  I guess she isn’t exactly saying "nothing" happened, but this does very little to clear up rumors.  And since an incident report was taken, despite her allegedly saying she wasn’t going to press charges, I’m sure that will hit the web soon.   

We’ll keep you posted…

UPDATE:  Nicki’s "roommate" during the incident appears to be constant companion Safaree Samuels (@scaffbeezy).  He recently put his two cents in on Twitter saying:

The general public are some stupid muthafuckas!!!! Y’all dicks believe anything on a website…. It’s really a shame… Wut up tho Dallas?!!

Then he said…..

4the record I would never lay a hand on ANY woman, I have all sisters and No brothers And that’s the last I’ll say about that!!! God bless

And about that incident report…..The Dallas Observer contacted Senior Corporal Kevin Janse in the Dallas Police Department’s Media Relations Office who confirmed that a police report exists regarding at incident at the Hotel Palomar, but says that it’s currently unavailable because no charges were filed.

Chances are it may get leaked at some point…..we will keep you posted. 

Halle Berry on Her Stalker Scare

Actress Halle Berry was granted a restraining order against stalker Richard Franco on Tuesday, saying she was "extremely frightened."

halle-berry.jpg

In court documents obtained by "Extra," Berry described how she saw Franco through her glass kitchen door -- less than a foot from her! It was the third time since Saturday that the 27-year-old man had trespassed on her property.

The order remains in effect until August 1 and also protects Berry's 3-year-old daughter, Nahla.

Meanwhile, Franco, who remains in jail, has been formally charged with felony stalking and is scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday.

The 27-year-old faces up to three years in prison if convicted of stalking. Jail records do not indicate if he has an attorney. He is being held on $150,000 bail.

After months of waiting, Prince William and Kate Middleton finally arrived stateside on Friday and certainly brought their photogenic charm with them.

The Royal Couple spent their first night in Los Angeles attending Variety's Venture Capital and New Media Summit at The Beverly Hilton hotel, according to E! Online.

Middleton, always one to dazzle in the latest fashions, fittingly chose to wear a 'Maja' green dress by American designer Diane Von Furstenberg for the occasion.

At the technology and media-focued event, William and Kate mingled with guests, including British Ambassador Sir Nigel Sheinwald, California Governor Jerry Brown and pal David Beckham (who's expecting a new baby any day now).

*POLICE DOCUMENT INSIDE* Nicki Minaj Hit In The Face With A Suitcase By “Unidentified Male”

As Nicki Minaj spent her morning denying reports that she was hit in the lower lip by a mystery male in their hotel room in Dallas over the weekend, but the police report has just been unveiled, as we predicted, proving a physical altercation indeed took place.

Check out what really went down and the police report inside…

Reports flew yesterday that 28-year-old Nicki Minaj and an "unidentified male" got into a hostile argument that started at their hotel pool and ended in the hotel room they were sharing.  Nicki did not want to press charges, but the police were called and a report was taken.

Nicki denied any altercation took place.  And while she may not have been punched in the face with a fist, according to recently revealed docs, she did tell Dallas police on the evening of July 11th that she was indeed hit in the face with a suitcase by said male at Hotel Palomar.

Now, the police report, gathered by the Dallas Observer, details that once Nicki and the mystery man took the argument back to the room, she "told him she didn’t want him taking anything out of the room."  The male’s suitcase and personal belongings were in the room. Then, as he was packing his suitcase up, he "shoved the suitcase across [Nicki's] chin and lower lip."

Other sources report another part of the police report state that Nicki’s teeth cut the inside of her lower lip once hit with the suitcase, causing it to bleed.

Despite her rumored boyfriend and hype man Safaree tweeting that same night he was poolside as well, he’s claiming now that he has never and will never hit a woman.  And the media is "bogus" for reporting this "false story."  Well police reports rarely, if ever, lie.  And he’s well aware the mystery man sounds a lot like him.

And whether you’re hit with a hand or hit with a suitcase, and no charges filed, this ish aint ok.  Especially when you claim to be THE role model for young girls and "barbz."  Just sayin’….

Story still developing….

What was Justin wearing for this flash bulb frenzy? This purple and black plaid shirt. So romantic.

Undeniably sexy Jessica Alba graces the August issue of Allure magazine, in which she reveals that she didn't appreciate her sexuality until she became a mom. "I was quite shy with it," Alba admits.

Alba, soon due to give birth to her second child, also talked about never being fully nude in her films. "At least I'm still covered. I'm wearing as much as a bathing suit. It's not like I'm naked. I'm not terribly comfortable with being in a bikini, but covering up my genitals is different than not covering up my genitals, at the end of the day. I do see a difference in that, to put it really frankly."

William and Kate Hit the Polo Field in California

The Royal Couple felt right at home during their California visit Saturday as Prince William hit the polo fields in Santa Barbara.

William led his Royal Salute polo team to victory at the Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club while his wife, Kate, cheered him on, according to RadarOnline.com.

Before the match, William addressed the eager crowd, telling them what an honor it was to be celebrating the California polo club's 100th anniversary.

"I was so delighted when Ambassador [Glen] Holden asked me to play polo here ... My father, The Prince of Wales, and my brother, Harry, were as green as that grass out there when I told them I'd be here."

William went on to score four goals during the match, leading his team to a 5-2 victory. The event, in which the players shelled out $100,000 each to play, raised $4 million for the royals' foundation.

"Catherine and I have had a busy few days -- so the prospect of being able to let loose this afternoon is wonderful for me," William continued in his speech. "But that's what sport is all about -- be it polo or football -- more specifically how sport helps young people to find purpose in life -- is a key element to the [American Friends of the Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry] that Catherine, Harry and I have established."

The couple attended Variety's Venture Capital and New Media Summit at The Beverly Hilton hotel Friday night, where they chatted with esteemed guests, including British Ambassador Sir Nigel Sheinwald, California Governor Jerry Brown and pal David Beckham.

Following the polo match, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the star-studded British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Brits to Watch 2011 Gala.
