Queen Elizabeth II waited one month after Prince Charles' November 1948 birth to christen him, and Prince William and Kate Middleton will do the same for their newborn son, Prince George Alexander Louis, who was born July 22. The new parents, both 31, will follow tradition when it comes to the baptism ceremony, christening gown and reception.

Unlike royal weddings, which are often state occasions, baptisms are reserved for about 60 relatives and friends. At the half-hour liturgy, the Archbishop of Canterbury will ask William, Middleton and the godparents to gather around the 172-year-old baptismal Lily Font, filled with holy water from the River Jordan. As the queen -- the Church of England's Supreme Governor -- looks on, they'll affirm they'll raise the child to follow Christ.
Then, the newborn will be anointed -- and serenaded with hymns. Sixteen choristers from the Chapel Royal will sing at the service.

Since 1841, nearly every royal babe has worn the same lace-and-silk robe, first fashioned for Queen Victoria's son, the future King Edward VII. But after it endured six generations of wear and tear, Queen Elizabeth II commissioned a replica in 2008, which was used later that year for her grandson James, the Viscount Severn.

Naturally, as the future sovereign of England, William and Kate's child will don the original. Though the gown has been handed down, the shoes are always new!
At the reception, Prince William and Middleton will serve the top tier of their wedding cake, which they froze after their April 2011 wedding.

Paula Deen is once again trying to defend herself. After her employee, Dora Charles, told the New York Times on July 25 that the Food Network chef treated her unfairly and failed to live up to her promises of wealth in exchange for loyalty, the embattled Southern chef's rep is firing back in response to Charles' claims.

In a statement to Us Weekly, a spokesperson for Deen explained, "Ms. Charles' 'issue' is about money, not race. She receives a salary of more than $70,000 per year, plus profit sharing and benefits. For 20 years she has been paid a fair wage for her work, but she feels she deserves even more money. She claimed to be a friend of Paula Deen's but is now trying to cash in on the current situation."
In the article, Charles, who is African-American, alleged that Deen, 66, used racial slurs and tried to exploit her black employees for show. "I'm not trying to portray that she is a bad person," she said. "I'm just trying to put my story out there that she didn't treat me fairly and I was her soul sister."
PHOTOS: Southern stars
Charles' latest comments follow weeks of controversy surrounding the chef. Since it was revealed in June that Deen had admitted in a deposition to using the N-word in the past, she was fired by Food Network and Smithfield Foods, and was dropped by a slew of endorsement deals.

On Wednesday, June 26, Deen first attempted to clear her name on the TODAY show. "If there's anyone out there that has never said something that they wish they could take back -- if you're out there, please pick up that stone and throw it so hard at my head that it kills me," she said through sobs. "Please, I want to meet you...I is what I is, and I'm not changing."

People's Court judge Marilyn Milian deserves to let loose once in a while -- and she did just that on a recent beach vacation with her family. Ditching her traditional judicial robes and sunbathing topless in a pair of bikini bottoms, the outspoken 52-year-old showed just how comfortable she is in her own skin.

Per the New York Post, Milian was vacationing in the Caribbean with her husband, Florida Judge John Schlesinger. They were accompanied by their three daughters, Cristina, Alexandra, and Sofia.

A former Florida state circuit court judge, Milian took over The People's Court in 2001. She is the first female judge to preside over the long-running show, and the first Latina to host a nationally syndicated TV court program. Last September marked her 12th season on the show's bench, making her one of the longest-serving judges in People's Court history.

"I was always a little too responsible," she told the New York Times in 2008 of becoming a lawyer at 23. "While my friends were dancing on tables, I was prosecuting first-degree murder cases."

Will Taylor Swift, Harry Styles Romance Be Featured In 'This Is Us'?

 
With childhood flashbacks, touching family moments and boy-band bonding, One Direction fans are only a few weeks away from seeing the group as they've never seen them before in their upcoming 3-D movie, "This Is Us."
Yet, there is one thing you won't be seeing during the film, and that is Harry Styles' high-profile, yet short-lived romance with Taylor Swift, known as "Haylor."

Directioners Gush Over One Direction's 'This Is Us' Trailer

"It gets frustrating for them at times, because suddenly stuff gets printed that isn't even true," director Morgan Spurlock says in the September issue of Teen Vogue, which features 1D on its cover. "I saw an article that said, 'Harry Styles demands Taylor Swift be taken out of the movie.' But by the time we started filming in January, they had already split up."
Spurlock's timeline seems to be correct. The brief romance heated up in December 2012 after Styles and Swift were photographed walking through New York's Central Park. Shortly following were trips to tattoo parlors, birthday cupcakes in Europe and their very public New Year's Eve kiss. Yet, the romance came to an abrupt halt just one week later, following what was reportedly a "heated argument" while vacationing in the British Virgin Islands.
Even though there won't be any relationship drama on the big screen, there will still be plenty to satisfy every single Directioner, according to "This Is Us" producer Ben Winston, who says One Direction's real-life story plays out "better than any fictional movie ever could."
"The doc of what's happened to them over the last few years is more exciting than any script writer could ever write or come up with," Winston said. "So, therefore, you've already got a wonderful story that you're able to tell. And Morgan and myself and all of the team have done a job of portraying that really and showing who the boys are, what they've gone through, both the ups and the downs, within that," he said.
"This Is Us" hits theaters August 30.

Nicki Minaj Needs 'To Sit That Ass' On Khaled's Lap, Rick Ross Say

Rick Ross and DJ Khaled have a bond that extends beyond the music. In fact, before Rozay was a Maybach Music boss, he and Khaled worked their respective records on the streets of Miami. But despite the pair's long history, even Ross was surprised by Khaled's marriage proposal to Nicki Minaj.
"It was some chatter going around, but I can't say that I knew, but it was some chatter," Ross told Los Angeles' Power 106 host Rikki Martinez in a new segment that aired on Friday (July 26). "Time to sit that ass on his lap."

DJ Khaled Makes A Very Special Offer To Nicki Minaj

On Thursday, Khaled asked MTV News to assist in the release of a special video aimed directly at the Young Money cash queen, and it quickly went viral. "Nicki Minaj, will you marry me?" the charismatic DJ asked, looking directly into our cameras while holding up a 10-karat, radiant cut diamond engagement ring valued at around $500,000.
Khaled's name trended for hours afterward on Twitter as some fans wondered whether the proposal was authentic. Did the "No New Friends" star really want to put a ring on it? Ross told the radio station he believes his buddy is all in. "He has a ring valued at about half-a-million dollars," Rozay reasoned.
The Maybach CEO went on to propose that if the two actually do get hitched, he'll get them a car — though a Maybach may be out of the question since the luxury vehicle went out of production in 2012. "If they tie the knot, I have to most definitely represent like a boss," he said.

Miley Cyrus Documentary Will Dive Deep On MTV This Fall

 
For much of the past year, Miley Cyrus fans have had to make do with tiny peeks into the recording process for her upcoming album.
But this fall will bring a much deeper dive into all things Miley, with a revealing one-hour MTV documentary produced by the award-winning MTV News and Docs team. The film follows Cyrus as she works on the album and delves deep into the transformation she has experienced over the past few years.
The show follows in the footsteps of similar enlightening documentaries that have featured the likes of such superstars as Lady Gaga, Drake, Nicki Minaj, Brittney Spears and most recently, Demi Lovato.

Miley Cyrus Reflects On Her Image

Producer Pharrell, who gushed about Cyrus' Southern charm and hospitality to MTV, has promised that the year of work he's put in with his "lil sis" is just the start of even bigger things to come for Cyrus.
"It's just gonna sound like her and her influences, but it's not that hip-hop heavy," Pharrell said of the full body of work, which will include features from Wiz Khalifa and maybe French Montana. "That's not what she does, that's not where she comes from. It's a part of what she loves, which is a very big difference."
The biggest look we've gotten so far of the album is the Mike Will Made It-produced tune "We Can't Stop," the twerk-tastic single that has blown up the charts and launched countless memes, including the trippy, sound-less remix of the video.
"Like the song says, we can love who we want. I'm really free about the way I feel and who I am," Cyrus explained during a California media blitz in June. "Of course, I want people to love my music, but it's like, at the end of the day I make music for me. I make music 'cause I love it and I know, like I said, I put good energy into it. I want to make this song the biggest song in the world."

Amanda Bynes' lawyer calls for emergency hearing in a bid to get the troubled star released from hospital

Amanda Bynes lawyer has attempted to get the star released from hospital

Amanda Bynes' lawyer has filed legal documents in Los Angeles asking for an emergency hearing in a bid to release the troubled actress from hospital.
The star, who is allegedly suffering from a mental illness, is under a forced two week hold which was approved by a judge on Thursday after she lit a fire on the driveway of a stranger's home in the Thousand Oaks area of Los Angeles on Monday night.
An emergency hearing will be held on Friday on the psychiatric ward where the actress is staying and both a judge and Amanda will be present, according to TMZ.

 Amanda’s parents Rick and Lynn backed the judge's decision to keep their daughter under a 5150 hold for her own protection which will see her stay in psychiatric care for at least two weeks after a judge ruled she wasn't well enough to leave hospital.
Amanda’s lawyer had previously argued an extension should be denied but doctors insisted they needed at least two weeks to diagnose the former Disney star’s illness.
A picture emerged of what is thought to be Amanda arriving at a hospital in Los Angeles after being put under psych hold by police officers.
The frail figure was covered in a sheet with her feet clad in hospital slippers.

 Meanwhile Amanda Bynes’ parents are also set to head to court to seek control over their daughters financial and personal affairs.
According to Radar worried parents Lynn and Rick will have a hearing at Ventura County courthouse on Friday to ask for temporary conservatorship of their daughter.
A source said: “Rick and Lynn will appear before the judge on Friday to ask for a temporary conservatorship of their daughter, Amanda.
“Her parents will both be petitioning to be the temporary proposed conservators, and want control of her personal and financial affairs.”

To grant conservatorship the proposed conservator must show that the conservatee is is unable to care for themselves, and is a danger to others,” a source told Radar about what Bynes’ parents will face in their legal quest.
Rick and Lynn were pictured leaving a Los Angeles hospital on Tuesday afternoon, looking strained - it is believed they have taken custody of Amanda's dog.
Amanda, 27, who has repeatedly called her parents ugly on Twitter, is currently under an involuntary psychiatric hold in Los Angeles after allegedly sparking a small fire in a stranger’s driveway.
Her parents are absolutely sick with worry about their daughter,” a source told Radar.
“They are now considering going to a judge and attempting to get a conservatorship of Amanda. They have previously met with lawyers to discuss the possibility of taking legal control of Amanda’s life. It’s a truly devastating situation for Amanda’s parents and their biggest concern is the health and safety of her.”
It is a mystery how troubled star Amanda made it from New York to southern California where she allegedly sparked a small fire in a stranger’s driveway before being taken away by cops and put under psychiatric hold.
According to sources wig-loving Amanda was forced to flee the big apple as she couldn’t find anywhere to live and had run out of cash.
Amanda’s journey to Los Angeles has worried pals who told Radar Online the star can’t drive and had no available funds for a taxi.

As Amanda remains under 5150 psych hold after allegedly setting fire to a driveway with a rag and a gas canister more details of her increasingly bizarre behaviour emerge.
It is thought Amanda returned to the Thousand Oaks area as her parents live nearby and some of her cash earned as a child star is protected by them.
Meanwhile eyewitness to the bizarre blaze allegedly caused by Amanda, Andrew Liverpool, told E! Online how he was first on the scene and immediately recognised the star – by her wig.
"I see this girl with her pant leg on fire and a gas can trailing fire through the driveway It looked like her. It sounded like her. She had a wig on," he said.
"I kicked the gas can over and moved it to the middle of the driveway so nothing else would catch on fire.

“She was kind of frantic and discombobulated, and many people rushed over to try to assess the situation and when I looked back up, she was gone."
Liverpool claimed Amanda tried to climb into a cab in her charred jogging bottoms before she was taken away and placed under an involuntary psych hold by police.
It is not thought that Amanda was arrested.
In a recording obtained by TMZ, the caller can be heard saying: "It's a very small fire, it's on a driveway... It's like a small piece of cloth and a gasoline tank which is why I'm calling 911."
Continuing to talk about the petrol tank, the caller added: "I don't know if there's a lot of gasoline in it... No one's injured... It's decently close [to the house], I would say about five feet, and there is a tiny little fire in a crack which is right next to the grass."

 Amanda, who was pictured looking disheveled while wearing her infamous blonde wig while shopping in Malibu this week, is reportedly under a 5150 hold - the law used to keep Britney Spears and Mischa Barton on a mental health ward involuntarily for 72 hours in the past.
On Tuesday, Captain Don Aguilar of the Ventura County Sheriff's Office told US website Hollyscoop: "Deputies investigated the incident and determined that she met the criteria of 5150 W&I (California Welfare & Institutions Code). She was detained and taken for a mental health evaluation."
This latest news follows a number of worrying incidents involving the actress - on Sunday the star was reportedly accused of appearing drunk and acting erratically at a retirement community near Thousand Oaks.
Amanda was apparently there to visit a relative but was asked to leave after staff apparently thought she was trespassing, according to TMZ.
She has also been pictured and filmed acting strangely while out and about in New York and recently attended a court hearing after she allegedly tossed a marijuana bong from the window of her 36th floor apartment.

Comments Michael Jackson's killer Doctor Conrad Murray to go free from jail in just three months

Free to go: Dr Conrad Murray will be out in three months

Reuters

Conrad Murray will be a free man in three months – less than two years after he was locked up for killing Michael Jackson.
The disgraced doctor, 60, gave the King of Pop a lethal dose of anaesthetic while he was treating him.

Lethal dose: Drugs found in the home of pop star Michael Jackson

Reuters

 He was convicted of involuntary manslaughter but will be released on October 28, less than halfway through his four-year sentence.
Murray’s early release has incensed Jackson’s mother Katherine, 83, and his devastated children, Paris, 15, Prince, 16, and Blanket, 11.
Insiders revealed the family felt the medic “should serve his time for the crime”.

Incensed: Michael Jackson's mother Katherine

Katherine Jackson said: “It is not right I will never be able to see my son again, while his mother can see him.”
Murray has been in solitary confinement – but with a TV and a mobile phone in his cell – since he was jailed in November 2011.
Last night a source close to the doctor said: “He has been a model inmate and the authorities have granted him an early release due to that good behaviour and the overcrowded California jail system.”

 But a livid family source blasted: “Murray is the killer of Michael in their eyes. He cost them their son and father.
“For him to get out in two years is an insult. They still feel he should have been tried for murder.”
The family are furious with Murray after he refused to give evidence in their trial against concert firm AEG Live, which was promoting Jackson’s This Is It shows at London’s 02.

Manslaughter: Michael Jackson

 They feel that he has key evidence to prove AEG acted negligently and contributed to the star’s death. But this week Murray threatened to drop a “nuclear” bombshell of secret information about the singer and his family if he was forced to testify.
It is claimed he wants nothing to do with the wrongful death lawsuit as he fears he could be incriminated.
Murray was sentenced to four years at Los Angeles County prison after a five-week trial, but has appealed to overturn his conviction.
Jacko died at his mansion in LA in June 2009 after being given a fatal dose of ­anaesthetic propofol.
It was alleged that he begged Murray for the drugs, but Katherine said: “Even though he asked for it, he could have said no.” She recently said that hearing lies about her son was the most difficult thing she had ever had to deal with.
Katherine is suing AEG for £26billion, claiming the firm did not properly investigate Murray before employing him, but AEG said the singer hired the doctor himself. AEG is trying to prove the pop star was a drug addict.
Jackson was taking part in gruelling rehearsals for his This Is It comeback, but he died before the shows began.

By Owen Tonks Comments Amanda Bynes 'spent $1.4m in just months and travelled by taxi from New York to Los Angeles'

Troubled Amanda

The parents of Amanda Bynes claim she is a substance abuser who has spend $1.4m in a matter of months.
In court papers filed by Amanda's parents Rick and Lynn as part of an effort to get a temporary conservatorship over their daughter they say the former child star has become "extremely paranoid about being watched" and even tapes windows shut in a bid to stop cameras from capturing pictures of her.
Amanda is also said to cover smoke alarms with towels and her parents now believe she is homeless.

  In addition, it is claimed the actress as "profound issues with her body image" and is "obsessed with the fact that she (and others) are ugly", according to TMZ.
The former Disney star was thought to have had $4m in the bank but a huge amount of money has allegedly vanished with $1.2m being spent in a very short amount of time.
Amanda apparently withdrew $100,000 from her bank on June 4 and a further $100,000 on July 2 and while her parents do not know what the money was spent on, they believe she spent "a substantial amount" on marijuana and other illegal substances.

  The star recently returned to Los Angeles from where she was living in New York but how she traveled to the Californian city is a mystery with Amanda telling her parents she "cabbed it".
The papers in which Amanda's bizarre behaviour is detailed were filed as her parents are trying to get a temporary conservatorship of their daughter in a bid to control her finances and certain personal areas of her life.
The court denied the request for a conservatorship on Friday morning as the judge is said to want more information.
Amanda is currently in hospital and is on a psychiatric ward after she started a fire on the driveway of a stranger's home in the Thousand Oaks area of Los Angeles on Monday night.

 Dan Neal has become the fifth person to be evicted from the Big Brother house.
The former policeman and fellow housemates Sophie and Sam believed they were immune from eviction as part of a twist but they were in fact the nominees who faced eviction.
The news did not go down well with fellow contestant Gina as she became tearful when it dawned on her one of her friends would be leaving the reality show.
Speaking to show host Emma Willis after leaving the house, Dan said: "I suggested this might happen tonight, I knew I'd go when I was up against those two."

Gina was saddened by the news

 Dan spoke highly of his fellow housemate Hazel and said controversial housemate Dexter was "mixed up but a nice guy".
He backed Gina to win the show but admitted he felt cheated after receiving the boot as part of the twist.
Dan is now expected to return home to Essex where he lives with his boyfriend.

cary Spice Mel B hits out at Victoria Beckham's dance skills on America's Got Talent

Mel B hits Posh where it hurts - her dance skills

The Spice Girls may well be in semi-retirement, but it’s good to see they are still alive and kicking... each other.
Scary Spice Mel B appears to have reignited her feud with Victoria Beckham, apparently claiming she cannot dance “to save her life”.
She is said to have made her comments about Posh off air to fellow America’s Got Talent judge Howard Stern, which he then repeated on screen during filming. Oops.
Commenting on children’s dance troupe, Fresh Faces, the 38-year-old singer praised the little munchkins, saying: “You’re like the 2013 mini dancing Spice Girls version. I absolutely, absolutely loved it.”

Victoria Beckham is more likely to be seen hanging out on the red carpet now than dancing

  But Howard said: “That’s the problem. You do dance like the Spice Girls. They weren’t the greatest dancers.” After Scary told the TV star he would “get it at the next break”, Howard let slip: “You told me Posh Spice couldn’t dance to save her life...”
As the live studio audience cheered and laughed, a panicking Mel, who lives in LA, started waving her arms in the air, attempting to slap the mischievous panellist.
Although Posh, 39, is keen to move on from the Spice Girls – and has made no secret of the fact she was never the world’s greatest singer – she probably won’t appreciate any criticism coming from Scary.
The dig comes two years after the pair fell out when Mel asked to borrow one of Posh’s designer gowns for reality show, It’s A Scary World. When Victoria was unable to provide one in her size, all hell broke loose.

It's a shame this doesn't happen more often

  Similarly, after announcing her latest pregnancy, Scary took to Twitter to thank all the girls for their support. All the girls, that is, except VB. She wrote: “Ahh big thanks to my spice girls mel c, geri and emma for their baby well wishes! Love you! Xxxxx.” Ouch.
Seemingly unperturbed by her latest blunder, Mel yesterday had a guided tour of New York’s Empire State Building.
After performing triumphantly at last year’s Olympics, the Spices, meanwhile, have not ruled out one final fling.
In the words of Melanie C – aka Sporty Spice – “never say never”

Nigella Lawson has been comforted by Pierce Brosnan over her marriage split hell.

The TV cook and 007 star were spotted at a restaurant, six weeks after snaps of her being gripped round the throat by husband Charles Saatchi emerged.

One diner said: “Nigella and Pierce seemed very happy to see one another and were engrossed in conversation after sitting down together for a chat.

"It was clear they both enjoyed the opportunity to share some time together.”

Down: In Mayfair

Tim Anderson

 Both Nigella, 53, and ­60-year-old Brosnan have suffered heartache in recent weeks.
Saatchi, 70, filed for divorce after she walked out over the pictures which seemed to show him trying to choke her at a London restaurant.
And the Bond actor’s daughter Charlotte died on June 28 from ovarian cancer at the age of 41.
But both appeared to have a spark of happiness as they chatted warmly at Italian restaurant Bocca di Lupo in Central London on Thursday, according to the witness.
The diner added: “It was nice to see both of them being able to laugh and smile in public again.
"They are clearly great friends trying to get on with their lives.”

Swift and amicable: Nigella and Charles Saatchi

 Saatchi was cautioned for assault over the choking incident.
He and Nigella – worth £150million – have agreed to a “swift and amicable” end to their 10-year marriage.
Neither will contest the divorce, which will become decree nisi on July 31.

Divorce: Charles Saatchi

Ian Vogler

 Nigella had spent much of the time since the split staying with her sister Horatia at her home in Mayfair.
She has rarely stepped out in public.
She is believed to have been friends with Brosnan for many years and the pair regularly meet at showbusiness and charity functions.
His first wife Cassandra Harris, Charlotte’s mum, also died of ovarian cancer in 1991, aged 43.
Brosnan is now happily remarried to reporter Keely Shaye Smith.
They have two sons Dylan, 15, and 12-year-old Paris.
Brosnan was yesterday seen flying out of London’s Heathrow Airport.

An Ohio DJ has also claimed the singer spat at him in a nightclub.
Addison Ulhaq was performing at the Social Room in Columbus, Ohio on July 13 when the pop star's minders are said to have approached the disc jockey on a number of occasions throughout the evening demanding he not take pictures of the star.
He claims he did not take any photographs of Justin but says Justin used insulting language towards him.
Addison's lawyer states in the report Justin allegedly spat in the DJ's eye, nose and mouth.
In recent months he's had an altercation with a photographer, has fallen ill on stage and was even filmed urinating into a mop bucket.
But his grandmother has recently come to the defence of the controversial Canadian.
Diana Dale spoke out to defend her grandson and has called for people to give him an easier ride as he's doing the things a normal 19-year-old would do but Justin just happens to be in the public eye.
