Virgin just launched flights from Toronto to LA and Toronto to San Francisco. To publicise the new routes, Virgin head Richard Branson invited Drake along for the ride, arriving home in Toronto yesterday on Air Drake. Air Drake as you know had the top album last week in sales but was just bumped off by Eminem’s Recovery which, as expected, sold almost 750,000 copies. Full Story

They panned to John Legend following Chris Brown’s tribute to Michael Jackson last night at the BET Awards. You know he was suppressing one giant eye roll. No doubt, Chris Brown is an electrifying performer. His imitation dancing was undeniably entertaining. His moves last night were totally mesmerising. Full Story

At the Laker game on Friday sitting beside Jeffrey Katzenberg. The GMD was also Katzenberg’s guest last May during the playoffs. Keeping up good relations. Speaking of seeing exes, Penelope Cruz and Javier Barden were at that game too, seated in a much less prominent section. If there was a greeting at all between the four of them, it didn’t happen on camera. Full Story

Keep begging you piece of sh-t. Chris Brown beat down his girlfriend last year. Then he went jetskiing. And he went to basketball games. And he only reported for community service because he was ordered to. And he spends more time partying with Diddy and shooting music videos than reaching out to those who’ve suffered unspeakable abuse. Full Story

And what do they have in common? People Magazine. The MiniVan’s Bible. Yay! I already mentioned in the open that People readers, purveyors of great taste, voted him their favourite host. You remember their exclusive interview  Full Story

Ohhhhhhh snap. I like Rihanna’s new man. So far. As you know, RiRi is now with Matt Kemp of the LA Dodgers. They’ve been on holiday, and they know they’ve been photographed, and they’re still loving it up for the cameras. Somehow Matt also found time to shoot a Match.com ad for Funny or Die. Full Story

Oh Taylor Swift. Right now you are perfect. TSwizzle turned 20 yesterday and celebrated at her family home with family, friends, her band, and the crew, baking the night before to surprise her guests, and then, oh yeah, announcing she’d made a donation of $250K to educational programs around the country, helping support teacher salaries, and purchasing new textbooks. Full Story

And this, motherf-cker, is what you call consequences.  Full Story

This interview can’t be characterised any other way. It was a fluff piece. Robin Roberts and 20/20 allowed Chris Brown to repeat his empty apologies without qualification, without addressing any new questions, without pressing him on anything of substance. Oh great. We get to watch his “sorry” face as they played back Rihanna’s candid segment with Diane Sawyer. Full Story

Hell yeah. Speaking of sh-t disturbing, Vibe is disturbing some really good sh-t with its new issue featuring two covers: Drake and Chris Brown. Oh la. Chris Brown of course is the piece of sh-t who’s trying to sell a new album while riding the high from his beatdown of Rihanna. Drake however is the Canadian breakout artist and Degrassi alumnus who worked with everyone from Kanye to Jay-Z to Lykke Li this year and who just earned two Grammy nominations this week for Best Rap Solo Performance and Best Rap Song and… Is rumoured to have been the first to date RiRi after Breezy. Full Story

Good Morning America took it up the ass last week when it was revealed that they’d invited Chris Brown onto the program to perform even though they’d cancelled Adam Lambert, thereby helping a convicted felon promote his new album. Although not admitting that they’re buckling due to widespread criticism, ABC has now decided not to feature Brown onstage and will air instead a 20/20 interview with the abuser during which he has supposedly promised to reveal what happened that night. Full Story

Well sh-t Good Morning America, this is wonderful. They cut Adam Lambert because they feared he might not be appropriate for morning television, but Chris Brown, that piece of sh-t who pummelled his girl … Chris Brown is totally appropriate for morning television. This is why they’re airing a taped interview with him next week AND considering a live performance, all in service of course of his new album. Full Story

No, not the dumbass posing with him yesterday in New York, she needs a girl intervention more than Jessica Simpson. But the one who blasted the sh-t out of Chris Brown as he was leaving a store yesterday and it was all caught on camera. See below. Exactly. Right? This lady is a FRIEND. What’s with the support? What’s with the girls begging for a piece of his attention? Promoting an album on the back of his abused ex-girlfriend, halfhearted attempts to support victims of domestic violence, is this a piece of sh-t who deserves the adulation? People are so stupid. Full Story

Nine months after Chris Brown assaulted her, Rihanna is addressing the night she “went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears”. This is how she describes the “level of media chaos” that resulted from the incident, telling Glamour that "the positive thing that has come out of my situation is that people can learn from that. Full Story
