His Royal Canineness, who is richer and more powerful than we'll ever be.

STOP THE PRESSES!

We as a society can now move on after weeks of waiting and wondering just what the William and Kate Middleton named their adorable cocker-spaniel puppy.

And the dog’s name…?

LUPO.

You may now carry on with your regularly scheduled lives.

Ugh, I hate shock jocks.   I know Howard Stern pushes the envelope to get a reaction out of people, but he can be such a douchebag.

It’s no secret that Christina Aguilera has put on the pounds compared to when she was younger, but during an interview with Adam Levine, Howard asked The Voice judge just why Christina has gotten “so heavy.”

Adam, obviously uncomfortable with the way things were going, tried to get Howard to put the brakes on the line of (rather mean-spirited) questioning.

Check it out.

The question everyone’s mind this morning is what can you actually give up for 40 days and make it stick (okay – just mine).

The second question on everyone’s mind is wondering if Drew Barrymore is actually pregnant or not (okay, so it’s probably not, but whatevs).

Anyhoo, TMZ posted photos yesterday which showed Drew  holding onto a sonogram as she and fiance Will Kopelman left a doctor’s office, which of course raises the question – is Drew in the baby way? Of course, there are many reasons to get a sonogram outside of being with child, but I’m not sure who would choose to have a keepsake of a cyst or something along those lines.

When Drew’s rep was aksed if Drew was pregnant, the reply was “no comment.”  Hmmm…

Drew and Will became engaged this past holiday season.

Who thought it was a good idea to try and get Queen Adele to wrap up her acceptance speech at Tuesday’s Brit Awards?  I mean, this is the woman who is pretty much running the music world right now, and she knows it like the HBIC she is.

Apparently, the Brit Award execs thought it was acceptable.  As Adele was picking up one of her several awards during the evening (natch), she was up at the mic saying, “”I am so proud to be British and to be flying the flag,” when show host James Corden cut her off to introduce Blur to the stage.

The fuck?

Adele had the same reaction to get cutting off by Corden as I do when I get cut off by yet another horrible south Florida driver - her middle finger raised in a one-finger salute.

Who can blame her?  I mean, I know how I feel when some jackhole rams their car into my lane, as apparently my vehicle is wearing the invisible paint and the other driver doesn’t know that two objects can not occupy the same space at the same time. Flipping the bird is a necessary physical way to release some of the rage I am feeling and a preferred consequence to what I really want to do, which is usually ram my car into their ass end.

And that’s only while driving on 95.

Now I imagine that I’m Adele and I’m letting my home country know how proud I am to be BRIT – REPRESENT! at the Brit Awards and them bitches cut me off? Oh hell no.

According to the BBC, Adele isn’t trying to sugarcoat her reaction, either. I” flung the middle finger. That was for the suits at the Brit Awards, not my fans,” she said. ”I’m sorry if I offended anyone but the suits offended me.”

Girl, way to own it! If possible, this made me love you even more!

Now, since M.I.A. also recently flipped the bird (you remember that whole Super Bowl incident, right?), people are of course comparing the two – unfairly, I think.  M.I.A’s gesture was unprovoked.  Adele’s? Totally justified.

I love the Showtime show Shameless, it will most likely make just about anyone feel good about their parents and or crazy family. William H. Macy has gotten accolades and awards for his performances on the show, but last week Madison Davenport stole the show.

Madison Davenport Shameless On The Right

I missed the episode because of, well our crazy schedule here at CGN. I mean really, we barely have time to sleep let alone watch TV when it actually airs. So tonight I’m catching up. First, let me say that watching Madison in this show just reinforces my feeling that I never want to have daughters.

Okay, so her character in the show was mixed up in a twisted version of “Big Love” before winding up under the roof of V and Kevin and granted it’s certainly a crazy stretch (I hope) of anything young Morman girls have to deal with. But still, it’s just scary and makes me not want to have daughters. Just watch the show you’ll get it.

So in this latest episode, Madison’s character Ethel runs off with a young man who is 14 and a single parent like her (yikes). What’s ironic is that Ethel and this young man are arguably the best role models and parents in the entire show. I’m not kidding.

It’s both sweet, inspirational and scary all at the same time. But the point of this post is that the young actress gave an incredible performance and I’m sure this is just one of many in her career.

But Madison please, we beg of you, don’t end up like Lilo. Truly, that would be shameless selfish.

Sean “Puffy” Combs announced that he is going to dip his toe into cool, shady pool of a new business – a music and music news network, with a slight taste of social networking.

Puffy wants to call his station “Revolt,” which will be broadcast in conjunction with Comcast in 2013 and is considered, according to Combs as, “the first channel created entirely from the ground up in this new era of social media.”

If “new era” means “will actually play music videos” then I’m all for it!

Combs also said that Revolt will be a platform that will reach a very large number of people at the same time, but in different ways and will become part of music television history.

Apparently Combs isn’t the only celeb that Comcast is hooking up with to create new television networks – Comcast is also pairing up with Magic Johnson to create a show call Aspire, which will be geared towards African Americans, and Comcast is also working with Robert Rodriguez, the filmmaker, to create a network called El Rey, which will feature “Hispanic producers, celebrities, and public figures.”

Mariah Carey appeared on Good Morning, America this am to promote Jenny Craig.  During her interview with Robin Roberts, the two got on a topic of health, which naturally led to discussions regarding her husband Nick Cannon’s recent troubles.

When asked by Robin how Nick is, Mariah responded that he’s doing well, explaining “The best thing, I think, was the choice that he made to leave the radio show and just focus on “America’s Got Talent” and “Up All Night” which he just won an NAACP ACT Award.”

She also discussed the late singer Whitney Houston. The two became close after the recorded the Oscar-nominated When You Believe for the film, The Prince of Egypt. News of Whitney’s death struck Mariah so hard that she had canceled a Good Morning, America appearance that was originally scheduled for last week.

“We all loved her. We were all inspired by her, and we all loved her. May she rest in peace, and her legend’s gonna go on forever.”

Watch the full interview below.

Like Nelly Furtado once said (or someone else totally important, but I can’t remember…whatevs), “All good things come to an end.”

And most recently coming to an end are Delta Goodrem and Nick Jonas.  The pair, who’ve been dating for 9 months, are no more.  Delta’s rep confirmed the news in a statement:

“Nick and Delta have decided to mutually end their relationship. At this point in time, they are both focused on their careers as they go on different paths. They remain friends and wish each other the best for the future.”

Now, just last week, there was a blind item on CDAN that looked a lot like this:

This deception is almost movie worthy. You have a foreign born B list actress and singer who is barely known here in the US but is A list back home and has had some very interesting boyfriends in the past. Their previous choices makes you wonder how she ended up with them. Anyway, her part of the deception was simple. She found a former A list tweener and convinced him she was in like with him. He even got to fool around with her once or twice.

On the other side of the equation is a former almost A list singer. Now you feel like the singer is not far from playing casinos and state fairs. Anyway, our singer is married to a reality star and has been for quite some time. There are kids involved. So, we have the foreign born star and the singer and they have been together for about six months. The thing is they can never go anywhere when she is in LA and have to really sneak around and use her friend’s apartments even with her pretending to be the girlfriend of the former A list tweener. Now though they will have several weeks together alone while they film a new show out of the country. They are going to use this time to decide if the final cut should be made and the singer can move on with the foreign born star.

Now, don’t hurt yourself trying to unravel that hot mess of a blind item because I did it for you (read: I read the comments at the site and let other people translate for me).

These were the popular guesses (because that ‘blind’ item was about as blind as I am):

Former A-List Tween star on the verge of appearing at your local Indian reservation casino: Nick Jonas

Foreign born B-List Actress/Singer: Delta Goodrem

Former A-List singer that foreign actress/singer is screwing: Joel Madden or Seal (show they’re working on? The Voice Australia)

Reality starlet he’s married to:  Nicole Ritchie or Heidi Klum

Now, if Joel leaves Nicole for Delta, I’m gonna have to cut a bitch.  I love Nicole! She’s totally my fashion inspiration!

New parents Jay-Z and Beyonce left baby Blue Ivy at home last night while they went Lin-sane at last night’s Knick’s game! (I promise, that’ll be the only Jeremy Lin pun this post)

This was Bey and Jay’s first photo op together post baby Blue’s birth.  The pair were at Madison Square Garden to watch Jay’s team, the New Jersey Nets, take on the New York Knicks.  (Jay is part owner of the Nets.)

Beyonce wore little make up as the pair seemed to be toned down and chillaxed while watching the Nets easily top Jeremy Lin and the Knicks, 100-92.

Earlier today, the UK dates for Jay’s “Watch the Throne” tour with Kanye West were announced
