VIDEO:Josh Krajcik’s Voice Is Paula Abdul’s Favorite Over The Last Decade

During the first live show of the season, ex-burrito slinger Josh Krajcik chose to let his voice do all the talking on The X Factor USA.

And by that, I mean he gave a smoldering a Capella rendition of Bob Dylan’s classic Forever Young.

Simon Cowell said Krajcik’s performance was “probably the best performance we’ve had” so far on the show. 
Paula Abdul went even further than that: “Your voice is my favorite voice I’ve heard in the past decade.”
Judge for yourself, watch Krajcik perform Forever Young:

VIDEO: Melanie Amaro Has Nothing But The Chance To Win The X Factor!

There were many amazing performances on the October 25, 2011 episode of The X Factor USA but one of the best of them was by Melanie Amaro.

The song Melanie chose, a Whitney Houston classic, I Have Nothing, prompted L.A. Reid to simply say, “We really did save the best for last because, honey, you were unbelievable.”

Simon Cowell, her mentor who also had eliminated her last week before graveling to get her back on the show, said he now thinks Melanie can win the whole thing.

Watch Melanie’s rendition of I have Nothing below:

Nicole Polizzi Says Snooki Is Not A Role Model, But Nicole Can Be!

Don’t confuse Nicole Polizzi with her Jersey Shore alter ego Snooki because one is a role model and the other one is a guidette. Get it? Got it? Good.

The MTV reality star told Today‘s Matt Lauer that she draws a line between her guidette alter ego and the person she actually is. “I think you see more of the party side of me …on [Jersey Shore], but right now, you’re talking to Nicole.” She described the Nicole side of her as “It’s like the soft, calm, business-ready person.”

Nicole went on to explain that the tanning addict, club-going drinker, fun-loving meatball, and makeout-loving queen that we see on the MTV hit show is not a role model. But that Nicole is. Or could be.

“Snooki’s definitely not a role model. Snooki’s just there to have fun in life,” she said. “Nicole, I would say, I can be a role model. I have a strong personality.”

“I’m very strong, independent and I’m loveable, I guess.” 

Nicole, who is currently promoting her new book Confessions of a Guidette, explains:

“A Guidette is a girl with a strong personality. She doesn’t let anyone bring her down. She likes tanning. She’s very independent and she loves to be, like, flashy.”

Comedian Patrice O’Neal Suffers A Stroke

Actor/comedian Patrice O’Neal, who recently took part in the Comedy Central Roast of Charlie Sheen, suffered a stroke last week.

The sad announcement was made today by comic Jim Norton during the Opie and Anthony Radio Show. “We don’t know how he is,” Norton said. “We don’t know how he’s going to be. I didn’t want to do this by myself. I wish we had more news for you.”

The show’s Facebook page reads:

“Our close friend Patrice O’Neal suffered a stroke last week. Please respect his family and their request for privacy. An email has been set up for fans to send him well wishes and his family will make sure he gets them. You can write to LoveForPatrice@gmail.com. When we have an update on his condition, we will let you all know.”

PHOTO: Guess Which Celeb Is Too Short To Reach The Floor

Guess which celebrity took to Twitter to send this photo of herself on the toilet?!
One clue: She sings, she acts, she designs. And she often sends wacky Tweets!


Give up?

It’s no other than Jessica Simpson
Per US Magazine, the singer, designer and actress was in NYC Monday and had some issues in the ladies room at the posh department store Bergdorf Goodman.

So, of course Jessica would flash the news to the world.

“Short girl problems,” Simpson sent as a caption to this photo of her bare dangling feet which were not able to reach the floor.

This latest Twitter revelation by Simpson may top her last giggle-inducing Tweet of “I love my boobies!”

Cher Goes Ballistic On Twitter, Defending Chaz Bono

Every once in a while, we all need a mom like Cher!

The superstar did not like her son Chaz Bono being judged unfairly on Dancing with the Stars or being called a cute, fluffy penguin, and, so, like any pissed off mom would in the age of social media predominance, Cher took to Twitter to voice her rant.

“I Have Got 2Hold my TEMPER ! MY Tears R OK!” Cher wrote. “Congratulations Chaz I’m SO PROUD OF U! This was YOUR Quest…& u Followed your Star.”

Cher isn’t mad at all DWTS judges, just the male ones. To Carrie Ann Inaba who has repeatedly told Chaz that he moves her, Cher wrote: “Thank u Carrie Ann 4 your Gentility u r beautiful inside & out!”

But Cher had a different message for Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli: “To the Gentleman? I didn’t know who u we’re b4 which I guess is a blessing!” Cher continued about Chaz’ elimination off of the show by saying, “Going Home is Fine but why insult him b4 he Goes! Maybe Rudeness & Flapping Arms take the place of TALENT!” 

Cher had a special message for Goodman: “As for the Older Gentleman ….every Show Needs A Grumpy Old Man!”
In case you did not get all that, Cher sent a summary of her Tweets: “Condensed version …The Chick is beautiful & Polite! The Men suck.” 
When a fan accused Cher via Twitter that she is acting like a “very bad loser” by writing her, “u r acting like a very bad loser. I hope Chaz isnt acting like this!!” Cher responded by saying: “I assure u he isnt! Hes the nice 1.” Cher ended her night by saying, “Not Gone & I’m Good! Needed 2 Vent ! It Would Have Been Blast if Chaz Stay-ed, But He NEVER Danced b4,so it was a Great Dream 4 a Great Guy! XX.”
I bet Maksim Chmerkovskiy wishes he had Cher in his corner. Not that he needed any help against Goodman himself.
