He Said/She Said: Steven Tyler and Nicki Minaj are feuding. He said, "You just have to give your opinion. It wasn't hard for me, but I would imagine it's hard for some people, and they need a manager to say 'Shut the f--- up, and just give them your opinion.' These kids, they just got out of a car from the Midwest somewhere and they're in New York City, they're scared to death; you're not going to get the best [out of them]. ... If it was Bob Dylan, Nicki Minaj would have had him sent to the cornfield! Whereas, if it was Bob Dylan with us, we would have brought the best of him out, as we did with Phillip Phillips. Just saying."
She Tweeted: "Steven Tyler said I would have sent Bob Dylan to a cornfield??? Steven, you haven't seen me judge one single solitary contestant yet. I understand you really wanted to keep your job but take that up with the producers. I haven't done anything to you. That's a racist comment. You assume that I wouldn't have liked Bob Dylan??? why? black? rapper? what? go f--k yourself and worry about yourself babe. LOL lets make him a shirt that says "No Coloreds Allowed" then escort him down 2 Barbara Walters so he can tell how he was threatened w/guns. When Steven 1st went on Idol he was ridiculed by his peers & fans alike. Called a sell out. So what does he do? Ridicule the next judge."
** UPDATE **
Steven says, "I apologize if it was taken wrong, Nicki, but I am the farthest from being a racist. I am the last thing on this planet as far as being a racist. I don't know where she got that out of me saying I'm not sure how she would've judged Bob Dylan."
A Christmas Story House: Brian Jones has turned the house used in A Christmas Story into a museum. He paid $500,000 for it and renovated it with new windows, new siding and a fresh coat of green and yellow paint to match its decor in the movie. Brian also decorated the home like Ralphie's parents did by putting in a brown-and-white tile kitchen floor, a wide cast-iron sink in the kitchen, a claw-foot bathtub and, of course, a leg lamp in the window.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission says each year, 7,500 people are injured while putting up their holiday decorations. The commission says 10 people are killed each Christmas while putting up their trees.

What Your Car Says About Your Personality from ivillage.com
Classic Sedan: If you drive a Honda Civic it shows that you care about the environment. This sedan gets 28/39 miles per gallon on the highway with its Eco-Assist fuel-optimizing technology. You’re also a creative, savvy and a cost-conscious buyer. And don’t think for a minute that the Civic is bland. On the 2012 Civic LX you can personalize how information is displayed on the screen, customize the screen's color and even choose you own wallpaper.
Luxury Sedan: You go for creature comforts and you’re not shy about asking for what you want. You value elegant design and bespoke details. The Lexus LS sedan speaks your language. It offers climate-controlled seats, an all-LED interior lighting system that illuminates to greet the occupants and dims like theater lights, and an available Ottoman Seating Package with Shiatsu Massage for backseat passengers. The interior is offered in five color schemes from Ivory to Saddle Tan and wood choices include: Walnut, Shimamoku Espresso (a striped wood), Matte Brown Bird’s Eye Maple and an eco-friendly Bamboo wood trim.
Minivan: You’re the Mom who seems to manage family, career and home with grace and a sense of humor. You don’t try to be super mom realizing that you just can’t do it all. Your style is casual chic, and you don’t want to worry about whether or not your car is safe for your family. That’s why you picked the three-row, six-passenger Mazda5 crossover. It has a top safety rating, yet at the same time, doesn't skimp on the zoom zoom fun factor.
Pick-Up Truck: You’re strong, feminine and enviably self-assured. You can muck out a stall, go to a PTA meeting and host a charity event all in the same day. The bottom line -- the Ford F-150 boasts three decades of being a pick-up truck leader. But we’re talking luxury. The 2013 Ford F-150 Limited design sits on 22-inch polished aluminum wheels with a monochromatic exterior theme played out in metallic Ruby Red, Tuxedo Black or White Platinum. The cabin features cooled and heated red and black full-grain leather-trimmed seats with second row heated seats.
Electric Car: You’re a forward thinker, a technology whiz and strongly opinionated on anything eco. On top of all this, people like YOU. Your friends all want to ride in your LEAF because, after all, this high-tech car has a 100% electric motor which translates to no tailpipe emissions, not one drop of gas, no more oil changes, and up to 100 miles on a single charge.
Compact Car: You’re fun, but not silly. You like cute, but not cutesie. You chose the Ford Focus because it seats five, has a practical and easy-to-load hatchback trunk, and is small enough to park just about anywhere. You’re the kind of gal who saves her money and wants value in everything she buys.
Micro Sub-Compact Car: The world’s smallest four seater is all about minimalist design. No doubt about it, you are a savvy city girl with a high IQ. Your blog features tidbits like where to get the best Chapchae (Korean noodles!), how to score vintage cowgirl boots, finding a tattoo parlor that gives pedicures and a nightclub that screens the latest indie movies.
Roomy Sedan: You’re a no-nonsense, confident, conservative and sophisticated shopper who does her research. You think before you buy and acquire classic items that will last a lifetime. You want the best for your money and aren't willing to put up with shoddy quality. The Toyota Camry comes with armloads of accolades including Top Safety Pick 2012 (Insurance Institute of Highway Safety), the Best Selling Car in America and the Car with the best resale value. Needless to say the Camry sips 25/35 miles per gallon.
This Hash To Be A Joke: A couple has named their newborn daughter Hashtag Jameson. The mother, whose first name was blacked out in screen shots of the status update, added: "She weys 8 pounds and i luv her so much!!!!!" Stephen Colbert Tweeted: “A couple has named their baby ‘hashtag.’ What a great name, said his siblings Lycos and http://Pets.com.'' Some say the Twitter naming is a hoax.

Jessica Simpson is allegedly pregnant again. A source tells US Weekly, “It definitely wasn’t planned, but yes, Jessica is pregnant again. She really is overjoyed.'' A source tells the National Enquirer, “Jessica is only nine weeks into this pregnancy. She’s trying to keep it a secret until she makes it safely through her first trimester. On a positive note, the couple is thrilled Maxwell will grow up with a sibling close to her age, even if they weren’t planning it so soon. But the downside is Jessica learned she was pregnant during the most emotionally devastating period of her life — only a month after her father dropped the bombshell announcement that he was gay.”
Demi Moore is dating a 26 year-old art dealer named Vito Schnabel. A source tells the NY Post they met at a party. ''They were dancing and grinding all over each other, openly, in front of other guests.''
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth may sign a prenup. A source tells Life & Style Weekly, “Miley is worth over $130 million and has no plans to lose her nest egg in case of divorce. She has a half-dozen dogs that are her babies — she doesn’t want to lose them.”
Daniel Craig sent baby gifts to Adele. A source says, “Adele received some beautiful Skyfall gifts from Daniel. They included an Aston Martin car in miniature – -an exact replica of the one Daniel drove — and some Tom Ford designer babygros for her son. Tom designed the entire wardrobe for Daniel in the new film. There were also exclusive framed photographs, a set of Martini glasses and an Omega watch. Daniel has the utmost respect for Adele and her work. He loved it that she came in very early to the set before filming had begun. She was the ultimate professional and he’s thrilled she’s a new mum. He sent her a handwritten letter with the gifts.”
'Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve' lineup has Taylor Swift, Flo Rida, Pitbull and Carly Rae Jepsen
Taylor Swift handles her own Twitter account. She says, "I don’t have like a team of people who operate it, I just use it when I wanna tell them something, or when I think something’s funny. I think for me, it feels like a personal relationship. And yeah it’s a personal relationship with 22 million people, but it’s still a personal relationship."
