Back with more views on the lives of the rich & famous – heeeeeres everyone’s favorite feather ruffler……Perri Stilton!

When celebrities fly onto the Twitter it goes one of two ways. They either tweet once and give up wondering what all the fuss was about or they tweet like their iPhones depend on it. A recent study by Harvard Business School actually showed that 10% of twitterers account for 90% of all tweets. But look, who cares! If they’re one-tweet-wonders or … er… twaddicts(!?) what we get is some priceless gossip to pick at from celebs desperate for their real personalities to be out there and in the eternal spotlight!

KhloeKardashian: “Another day… Another photo shoot! But this time my sisters and I are shooting the cover for our book that’s coming out.” Oh gawd, who’s paying the Kardashian sisters to write a flippin’ book? What’s it about? How to be a whole family of talentless wannabes? Me thinks their only involvement in the book is going to be this (no doubt ‘sexy & windswept’) photoshoot

ladygaga: Just saw three little monsters walk out of a chapel across the street from arena. Pre-monsterball confession or Easter? AMAZING. SO TWISTED. Our favorite crazy lady has finally flipped. It was only a matter of time before the fashion messed with her head.

joejonas: Thank you mom for my Easter basket. Made me and my tummy very happy. For 21 years of age you sound wetter than a day at Wimbledon. Man-up, mommy’s boy!

genesimmons: Went up to the Playboy Mansion w/ Ms Tweed for Easter Egg Hunt — an annual event where former Playmates bring their kids to hunt for eggs.     This has got to be all sorts of wrong. Do the former playmates bring their kids to try and find eggs or so they can see their various half brothers and sisters?!

LindsayLohan:  @samantharonson – is spencer pratt the long lost son of michael lohan #famewhores ? So much bitchiness in one sentence it’s difficult to know where to start but where’s the class in airing your dirty laundry in public. Very sad.

ParisHilton:   “At home getting ready for bed. I love my grandpa, we had such a lovely time with him and dinner tonite. He is the best grandpa in the world!  / “Been here since 6am, so tired. Can’t wait to finish and get home to my puppies. “    /    “I love deep tissue massages. So relaxing. Gonna go take a bubble bath now.” / “At my parents house watching a movie with Tinkerbell. She is such a cutie.” It’s hard to believe that Paris is 29 years old and mostly famous for making a sex tape. Grandpas, puppies, bubble baths, more puppies – Paris lives the life of a seven year old. She quite literally loves everyone and everything!

Until next time, my friends. Love to hear you views in the forums or comment here.

Hey Tweet Dreamers! Perri Stilton back with more rumblings from the fame hungry belly of Hollyweird.

I’ll kick off with a few anecdotes I heard over dinner the other night. Now, it’s the norm in Hollywood to say after meeting a star, however briefly, that you are great friends with them and then continue with story about them that is probably handed down through countless Chinese whispers but I got these little exclusive gems direct from a real legend in the movie industry so keep them to yourselves.

This guy was telling me some pretty wild stories from a couple of his visits to the Playboy Mansion in his slightly younger days and found himself discussing pick-up lines with the lothario himself, Hugh Hefner, to get some tips. And Hef’s favorite line? “My name is Hugh Hefner.” LOL!

He was also with another of his famous friends Nicole Kidman when she was honored with the 2,211th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2003. The normally strong, independent Aussie whispered in his ear later “I’ve never been so excited to have people walk all over me for the rest of my life!”.

Last one was about Russell Crowe who worked briefly (like any struggling actor) as a waiter. One day, a customer (an American woman who Russell found extremely annoying) ordered a cup of decaffeinated coffee. She was soon upset to see her waiter appear with a rather unexpected beverage. “This,” she crossly pointed out, “is just a cup of boiling water.” Crowe’s reply (for which he was immediately fired) “Lady, when we decaffeinate something in Australia, we don’t f**k around.”

OK, you’re gonna get me in trouble so on to this week’s tweets and this time, direct from the birdies’ mouths…

LindsayLohan: “Don’t most readers like the drama, rather than the happy ending? *Then again, there’s a reason i’m NOT a reader.”Don’t most actresses like drama too? *Maybe that’s the reason Lindsay is NOT an actress.

KimKardashian: “I feel like I am getting a cold, I will not let this happen to me!”Sadly, Kim, you can’t hire someone to be ill for you – celebrities are human too, remember?

Keshasuxx (Ke$ha): “okok. so ive never done any naked pics.. lol . that shits fake. thats not me. total bs. shes hot tho. n getting laid. good for that girl.Ke$ha. types. like. an. idiot. but I like her stance on tackling sex tape rumors.

RickyMartin: #quote Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter. Martin Luther King Jr. then a few days later…..

Whats going on gang?I’m doing great!Stronger than ever!I’m here relaxing @ home enjoying ur messages!I feel the love!Thanx for all!peace Ricky Martin, now the iPad. Is anything not coming out this week?

theboygeorge (Boy George): I’m so gay too but it feels wonderful! Boy George finally comes out too.

mariahcarey: Be clear..If anyone who works for me (even if we’re kool)trys to “april fool” me they are so fired. Whoever says Mariah’s got over her diva status needs to get over themselves. She’s all about the fun!

adamlambert: Aaaaand yes, I kissed Kesha. It was fun. I hope future interviewers review these tweets. If not, they’re t**ts. Hahaha. We luurve a bit of juicy gossip but I thought you were gay?

JimCarrey: I think it was me who said, “Boredom is for those who are afraid to masturbate.” Jim provides an alternative to the long school holidays

This question always gets asked when certain people’s birthdays come around but when it comes to our filthy rich, super famous stars there’s a range of gifts and toys that push the boundaries of opulence and are so fantastically over-the-top that this headache (and their bountiful bank balances) is taken away.

Let’s take the cell phone. What does your cell phones say about you? In an image-conscious industry with everyone vying to be an individual your average million-dollar movie star needs to stay ahead of the competition and retain their God-like status.

To first cater for this demand were the leather & brushed steel finishes of Vertu phones which started at around $4000.  Vertu continue to offer a 24hr concierge service at the touch of a dedicated button with anything from gift ideas to a table for 2 overlooking the Eiffel Tower taken care of.  But these luxury products were soon made to look like tacky cast-offs as a range of Super Phones rang in the changes.

And this phone is a jaw-dropper.  The most expensive phone in the world is not called “Le Million” for nothing.  Coming in at $1,000,000 and featuring a blinding 120 carats worth of Grade 1 diamonds this is one phone you can’t afford to lose on a night out!  However, if $1million is out of your price-range then designer Emmanuel Gueit also offers several other diamond encrusted & gold models for a much more reasonable $25,600.

My personal fav is the über-cool Sony Ericsson Black Diamond.  Made with lightweight titane, mirror-finish cladding & the obligatory diamonds this limited edition bad-boy will cost you a cool $300,000 (but don’t expect any remarkable features for your money – it’s all about the look).

I’m sure many paparazzi-weary (but attention-hungry) stars hark back to a simpler life where they could take the bus or ride out on a bicycle without fear of ridicule for looking cheap.  Well, with Aurumania’s “Gold Bike Crystal Edition” you can cruise around in fantastical glamour & watch your public look on in awe as you glide past. Hand-built with every visible surface plated in 24-carat gold and adorned with 600 Swarovski Elements this $80,000 2-wheeler proves that  ‘going green’ doesn’t have to mean a plain & boring lifestyle. Oh, and in case you’re worried about cost they also offer free delivery from the men in white gloves.

Now onto an item that I know if close to a lot of your hearts (and feet)…….SHOES!  Despite the ‘bling’ style having the shine taken off it in recent years you can still pick up some custom Nikes encrusted with chocolate-colored diamonds for $50,000.  However, with shoes and fashion in general these days – it’s all about the investment.  Shoes have become like fine wines stored on racks in basement closets and left to gain in value and mystic. King of the crop when it comes to creating million-dollar shoes is the infamous footwear designer Stuart Weitzman who picks a young “Hollywood Cinderella” every year to wear his fantasy feet at the Oscars.  His top three (and, in turn, taking up the world’s most expensive shoe Top 3) are set out for you to wear below – just watch you don’t scuff the toe!

#3 Jeweller Oscar Heyman & Bros contributed 642 round and oval rubies totalling some 120 carats and set in pure woven platinum on 4½” red satin stilettos these $1,600,000(!!) shoes are pretty special.  Taking his inspiration from the infamous ruby slippers in the Wizard of Oz Weitzman’s actually cancelled this shoe’s appearance in 2003 “out of respect for those fighting in Iraq”.

#2 For these Weitzman teamed with jeweller Le Vian to painstaking match and cut 185 carats of museum-quality tanzanite and 28 carats of diamonds. These eye-popping, $2,000,000 kicks were unveiled June 2008 in Las Vegas. No one has been photographed wearing them yet. There’s still hope for us all!

#1 Quite unassuming to me the world’s most expensive shoes are these copper-colored $3,000,000 Rita Hayworth heels worn by Oscar-nominee Kathleen “Bird” York in 2006. Stuart Weitzman designed the satin open toe stilettos around a pair of earrings owned by movie legend Rita Hayworth. The earrings are laden with rubies, sapphires and diamonds.

Stalking celebrities has never been so much fun since Twitter flew into our lives but with so many celebs to keep track of these days you need Hot Gossip’s very own star encyclopaedia and general feather ruffler, Perri Stilton, to do the hard work for you and feed you the best celebrity tweets of the week.

Hi Perri Stilton here! I get sick of trashy gossip mags never giving you the true picture about what’s going on a week after it’s happened. I peck out the tweets that give you a first-hand snoop direct into LALAland and the people that think they revolve around it!  Oh, and don’t blame the grammatical and/or spelling errors on me. These tweets are straight from the fingers of the famous folks because (in case you didn’t know already) you don’t gots to be edumacated to make it big in dis town.

The big twitter bust-up last week between female US rocker, Courtney Love and British singer / social media addict, Lily Allen, all started when Love accused Allen of putting a block on all other stars from wearing Chanel to the BRIT awards last month (the usual thing!?) and the tussling twosome have been locked in a tweet battle ever since.  Highlights Lowlights have included…..

lilyroseallen :  i would never fight with her, as a rule i don’t pick on crazy old ladies. Lily sharpens her claws!

courtneyloveUK : hissy attitude towards me and my posse her stuttering response was how could i insult her re chanel “lock” that was a COMPLIMENT! Slight backtrack here me thinks!

courtneyloveUK : i cant believe someone who did massive amounts of cocaine at my house and was thrown out blamed me….when she did about a kilo with my daughter asleep upstairs, and had to be phsycially removed…when she came in her room asking for BEER… been convenient to blame me, lying that i gave her a drug ive never even taken and i specifically said not to take [drugs] in my house, if Kate Moss can abide?why not lily?           Things get ugly when Courtney accuses Allen of taking drugs in her house with her daughter upstairs!? Yuck.

lilyroseallen        : sorry, that was mean. enuff of these juvenile musings , i should never have risen to the bait. silly lily. It’s easy to take on a grown-up attitude just after you’ve posted this unflattering ‘twitpic’ of Courtney, Lily!

courtneyloveUK : i am NOT pretty and heres my secret I DONT CARE! then Courtney found a shot of Allen in concert, dubbed ‘lily-allen-and-an-interesting-choice-of-pants’ and posted it with the comment, “never mind dear, love yourself!”

By Wednesday it was just getting boring.

Moving on…… New queen of the bubblegum anthem Ke$ha (Kristan Bell) naively criticized pop royalty this week by bitching that Britney of the Spears cons her paying public by miming shows.  Horror upon horror that someone other than the gutter gossips criticize her Highness and Twitter went into a flutter with Sam Lufti – (remember him as Britney evil ex-manager & public enemy No.1) hilariously tweeting……

samlutfi : @keshasuxx Don’t try to knock Britney Spears to try to make headlines. Might as well just shave your head and hang out with me for the week          ……along thousands of others bombarding Ke$ha’s twitter page with venom. Ke$ha’s knight in shining armor came from an unlikely expected source……

courtneyloveUK : i really think i could mentor @Keshasuxx given a week and id be willing to do it, i dont think LinPerry would touch her , i see a spark tho      when i say ‘knight in shining armor’ i mean old witch ready to tell stories of her drunken conquests.

Other random tweets that made me titter this week were these two : -

taylorswift13 : Management meeting. We got a giant new conference room table. My mom and my manager are talking on walkie talkies from opposite ends of it.   Lol!
misskellyo :  just finnished wrighting my ‘Closer’ column! Wiv speling lik that we ca’nt wait too reid Kelly Osbourne’s column.
misskellyo :  Sorry still half asleep i meant writing    And she wrote it half asleep!? it gets better and better.

Well, that’s it for this week, my hot gossipers. I’ll be back soon. Feel free to add your comments by pressing the ‘Comment’ button at the top & of course, don’t forget to follow everyone’s favorite glamorous assistant, Amanda Ruis, on Twitter (@Tinseldiva).
