Will Smith is to host a concert celebrating Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday this summer.

The Hollywood actor and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith have agreed to front the star-studded event in London’s Hyde Park on June 27 after being asked by the iconic former South African leader. As well as recognising the landmark date, the event will raise money for 46664, Mandela’s AIDS charity.

A source said, ‘Will Smith is a big fan of Nelson and wanted to help out. Nelson is so inspirational and so many artists want to be involved. Razorlight, Keane, Queen and Annie Lennox are definites. U2, the Spice Girls and Sir Paul McCartney could join them and Eminem’s up for it too. We think it will be Nelson Mandela’s last international public appearance, which will make it even more special.’

Should Eminem agree to perform it would be his first major concert appearance since his self-imposed retirement in 2005.

The event will be attended by 45,000 music fans, and special guests will include Britain’s Princes William and Harry, former US President Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary, who is currently running to become the next President.

The first 46664 concert was held in Cape Town, South Africa, in 2003. There have since been events in Norway and Spain. The significance of 46664 is that it was Mandela’s inmate number during his imprisonment in apartheid South Africa from 1964 until 1990.

Remember Brad Renfro? He was Huck Finn to Jonathan Taylor Thomas’ Tom Sawyer in the 90s version of Tom and Huck.

Brad, age 25, was found dead in Los Angeles at an apartment where he spent the night with friends after partying and drinking. No word yet on an official cause of death; rumors abound about possible drug overdose, due mainly to Brad’s previous problems with substance abuse.

Sources say that friends heard him snoring throughout the night but then found him not breathing in the morning. They called 911, and Brad was pronounced dead at the scene around 9 a.m. Tuesday by responders.

Or so it seems…..

Maybe the pretty princess really DOES care about people besides herself. At least she seemed to be doing just that during a freak accident at a Miami nightclub.

Here’s the scoop - Paris Hilton was partying at Cameo in Miami. A crowd rushed the stage suddenly, trampling and injuring a nightclub entertainer who was dressed as one of the Oompa-Loomps characters from the “Willie Wonka” movies. The performer, Robin Sherwood, ended up with a very bad cut to the leg.

Paris actually knew him - she had worked with him in the past and had actually tried to help him fight to receive a needed kidney transplant. When she realized he was hurt, the heiress hurried to Sherwood’s side and stayed there until emergency personnel arrived to care for him.

One source says, “Paris was great. She was there until he was turned over to the medical technicians.”

Wow - I, for one, am stunned. Next thing we know, she’ll be battling Brangelina for “Humanitarian of the Year”.

Beyonce, the artist with too many slashes between job descriptions to mention, showed up in a green Zac Posen Resort at ‘Movies Rock: A Celebration of Music in Film’ which was held at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood on Sunday. And yes, she did her trademark pose of showing her armpits.

The noted singer and actress made a costume change into an Elie Saab dress some time during the show for her performance She performed a rousing rendition of ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’ from The Wizard of Oz.

The show will air on Friday, December 7 at 9PM ET/PT on CBS.

Paris Hilton has apparently caught the baby bug. She’s dreaming of a child who can grow up to be best friends with Nicole Richie’s soon-to-be-here baby.

She tells People, “Nicole and I have been playing together since we were two years old. I was just telling her, ‘I want a baby so that our babies can play together.’”

Problem is – she doesn’t even have a boyfriend right now! Although, with stars going to other countries and bringing back swarms of children, it may just be easier to do than she thinks. All she needs is a visa and enough money to bribe a small country – oh wait, she has that already doesn’t she?

I’m sorry, but I’m having enough time seeing Nicole as a mommy – can you actually see party-girl Paris settling down? Well, chances are, she’ll beat out Britney for “Mom of the Year”.

Being a mother myself I know all to well how forgetful you can get during pregnancy. Seriously, you are lucky if you remember your own name most days and if you find the car keys in the freezer and the butter in the oven you are having a good day.

But surely forgetting your underwear is a little on the extreme side? Especially for celebrities like Christina Aguilera, who must have an entourage of people around her to remind her of such necessities? But no, obviously knickers must be a rare commodity in Hollywood as she joins the growing list of stars leaving their underwear at home whilst out on the town.

Our pregnant star once slammed Britney Spears, Lindsey Lohan and Paris Hilton for such behaviour, but we have pictures to prove she is now a full fledged member of the panty-less crew. Whether she will remember it or not I am sure someone will be happy to remind her…

After having an ambulance show up at her home on Tuesday, Amy Winehouse went back to work on Wednesday. Amidst fears that she would cancel her show due to what’s been going on with her life lately, Wino pretty much showed that the show must go on.The singer performed at the NIA in Birmingham which was the first stop on her month-long UK tour. However, people are thinking that maybe she should have taken a break. The show was a disaster!

Concert goers say that Wino was terrible, obviously drunk and made rambling references to her husband. She cussed out and threatened fans which had a lot of them walking out.

Actor Vince Vaughn has slammed aspiring actors who enter the profession just to find fame. The Wedding Crashers star believes youngsters in Hollywood no longer care about acting skills, as their only desire is to become a celebrity. I admit to being a shameless celebrity-hound, even going so far as to hotel-hop in the hopes of sighting my favorite celebs (see my link below), but I agree with Vaughan on this one. There are too many actors in Hollywood today who are utterly devoid of talent and seek only adulation. I won’t name any, but we all know who they are . . .Just for instance look at Paris Hilton, first she says she is going to Rwanda for aid and charity work only to postpone it and of course she is not going to miss the new years’ eve bash at the Lax or where ever she wants to party and the same goes for innumerable celebrities. They just will do and say anything to hog the limelight.

Kevin Federline’s lawyers will be going to court tomorrow to argue that his ex-Britney Spears is violating the drug test orders. Brit is still using drugs. “Passing tests” happens to druggies’ everyday. Druggies know how to rid the drugs from their system before taking a test hence the reason she isn’t responding quick enough to take the tests. I can’t believe how foolish some of you fans are quick to say it is all KFeds fault, he is greedy, she isn’t using and such. You can look at her and tell she is using and as for mental illness….if you really know about MI, you will know codependence on drugs usually rides along with MI. If she wasn’t using drugs, the judge would had already given her back 50/50 custody and Kfed already tried to get her help both for mental and drugs along with her Moma and we all seen how that went. Those boys don’t need to see their mother in this condition right now. Anyone with a brain can see that.

Paris Hilton skipped out on the Los Angeles Halloween festivities last night to hit up Las Vegas hot spot LAX. Paris hosted the party and was even the judge for the $20,000 costume contest. I thought that she was suppose to be Alice from Alice in Wonderland with the trip out contacts, and what the fuck is with her new obsession with those contacts. While she gets drunk and high at a party, the military are putting their lives on the line for us. That fucking outfit mocks them. There’s not one thought in her empty head about our troops. She needs her mouth slapped, THEN her lips will be swollen. Well she may have looked every bit the Halloween she really is in real life but wearing a military outfit that too at a Halloween party shows that even if some think she has a sense of humor I’d think she and all of Hollywood that is appreciating her outfit are actually a bunch of jerks who think that many fun of the soldiers is really cool. Sad thinking on their part.
