In an update just minutes ago, TMZ is reporting that Travis Barker was willing to do anything short of trying to buy the moon to get his assistant Cris Baker to his wife.

Travis Barker’s assistant wanted to get home in time for his pregnant wife to give birth.

We’ve now learned why Barker and his friends decided to get on that doomed Learjet in South Carolina late last night, and the explanation can only be described as a horribly cruel twist of fate.

It all started some time yesterday, when Barker’s assistant, Chris Baker, told the guys that his wife was going into labor. Barker told him that he would do everything in his power to get Baker back to the hospital in time.

The quickest way back to Van Nuys was that Learjet. We’re told Barker usually won’t fly on private jets, but made an exception for what was supposed to be one of the happiest moments of Baker’s life.

The plane crashed shortly after midnight, killing four people — including Chris Baker. Baker’s wife went into labor early this morning.

Terrible, terrible story. What should have been the best day of their lives turns into one of the worst. Having their baby born the day his father dies is just heart breaking.

Don’t know how many of you had heard about this (I didn’t when it happened), but yesterday Travis Barker and DJ AM were passengers on plane that crashed, critically injuring them and killing four others. The plane carrying six people attempted to take off shortly before midnight Friday from Columbia, South Carolina when people in the tower report seeing sparks. They said the plane went off the runway and crashed on a highway embankment, catching fire.

Barker, and DJ AM were said to be in critical condition after the crash, although the worst of it was that the other four passengers died.

Today it is reported that both DJ AM, and Travis Barker, ex-drummer for the band Blink 182, will have full recoveries. Dr. Fred Mullins, medical director of the Joseph M. Still Burn Center, said both Travis and Adam suffered second and third-degree burns. Mullins said Barker’s torso and Adam’s hands and part of his head were burned, but they will be OK.

The people at TMZ are using their treadmills experience to try and run down the rest of the story with their patented “story developing” line at the end.

Does Political Correctness know no bounds? Are we to the point that we are accusing companies of lightening model’s skin color for ads is going to become common?

Apparently people seem to think that L’Oreal lightened Beyonce Knowle’s skin color in their ads featuring her.

“We highly value our relationship with Ms. Knowles. It is categorically untrue that L’Oreal Paris altered Ms. Knowles’ features or skin tone in the campaign for Feria hair color,” the Paris-based company said in a statement sent to the Associated Press Thursday.

The ad is in the September issues of Elle, Allure and Essence on stands now.

TMZ is making something out of nothing IMO. It’s all the lighting.

Hayden Panettiere doesn’t have anything better to do I guess than try to fill up our flash memory cards with music. The Heroes Hottie released the single below this week entitled ‘Wake Up Call’.

Can’t say I like it as I hate pop music. Not sure exactly what she is going for here. Reggae Pop? Is that a genre of music? Who the hell knows these days. Scratching a Chalkboard may be more appropriate.

Apparently Madonna and Britney didn’t get close enough when they were making out at the MTV Video Awards a few years back. According to The Sun, Madonna and Britney will be together again on Madonna’s next tour.

From what that says they will be wrapped in bandages and unwrapped by some dudes in tight pants to show them wearing almost nothing. This tactical gear will be just something like a few strips of clothing and thigh high boots.

An on-set source revealed: “It’s absolutely classic Madonna. Probably the raunchiest stuff she has ever done. It leaves nothing to the imagination and will be very controversial.

“Britney and Madonna are unwrapped like mummies, to appear together almost naked apart from tiny leather bondage pants and knee-high boots.

Now…15 years ago this may have been exciting when it came to Madonna. Today? Not so sure. Britney? Bah…never really been a fan of her look either. As a blogger? Well…that’s a completely different story .

Bon Jovi’s concert in Central Park this Saturday is free. Of course those out there doing any market research have realized that this ticket mnay actually be worth something. Scalpers are lining up to sell the tickets for this free concert, and are getting up to $1500 a piece for them.

New York City has distributed 60,000 tickets, with each person limited to two freebies. The performance is billed as a prelude to the July 15th All-Star baseball game, which will highlight the final season at Yankee Stadium.

Tickets have been seen on Ebay selling for up to $1500. Kimberly Spell, a spokeswoman for NYC Marketing, says lawyers will be contacting eBay officials to make them aware of the situation.

Remember Suge Knight? IF you listened to rap in the 90s you surely know who he is, and his label Death Row Records. He had a monster line up that included the mega star rappers of the time. Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, 2Pac, and quite a few others.

After declaring bankruptcy in 2006, judges have told Knight that he will have to sell Death Row, and the starting bid is $24 Million. So sell your exercise equipment, Ford Bronco, or anything you can get your hands on and put in a bid for the monster albums such as “The Chronic” and “Doggystyle” by june 10th.

While most kids were busy just playing on their swing sets, Miley Cyrus was becoming Hannah Montana, and a superstar. With it has come insane popularity, and as many rumors as you can shake a stick at.

This time the rumor is that Miley Cyrus is stealing songs according to Page 6. Rock band Lustra claims that Miley’s song “Rockstar” sounds way too close to their tune “Scotty Doesn’t Know,” which appeared on the ‘Eurotrip’ soundtrack.

Since we have both at our disposal thanks to the internet make the decision for yourself:

Miley Cyrus’ “Rockstar”:

Lustra’s “Scotty Doesn’t Know”

Pretty damn close isn’t it? Sounds A LOT like the other one doesn’t it? Looks like comments were shut off on the Miley Cyrus video too. Coincidence? I think not.

After many bouts with addiction treatment and going as close to insane as I guess you can, Britney is back out there releasing videos. I know how big of fans everyone is of Britney’s fantastic music (yes…I’m laughing) so I will post a video for you showing her in some sort of futuristic world as a Super Hero.

I guess she is going for the techno sound now apparently. Let’s just say that I am not impressed by the effort, but surely some of you will be.

Time to get back out and buy some more baby gifts. Can you believe he still has a wife? I mean he is after all ****ing Sarah Silverman isn’t he? This will be the couple’s second child after having their daughter, Isabella, in June of 2006.

I suppose this is a good time to post the I’m ****ing Matt Damon video since I don’t believe I ever have. I guess I may as well post the I’m ****ing Ben Affleck one as well sine that one probably funnier than Sarah’s.

I’m ****ing Matt Damon

I’m ****ing Ben Affleck

Go to Youtube and follow the rest if you have never seen it. There is a pretty funny interview with Ben Affleck on there after this video came out.
