Vanessa Williams was (and is!) gorgeous! Twiggy, I agree; I get the impression this woman has smarts.

Now THAT show was well-done. So much better than the Grammys. I really enjoyed it.

Did you hear Jordan Sparks singing Aretha's Respect--while Aretha was smiling and nodding at her? Jordan did a phenomenal job!

I am pretty sure that Vanessa Williams went to an ivy league school. When she was in college she posed for photos which resulted in her losing her miss america title. Best thing that could have happened to her was losing that title.

Those photos you refer to were in Penthouse, I believe, in 1984. They were pretty raunchy for the time. If you figure she was in her early 20's then, she is about mid-40's now. She's still a very beautiful woman.

Are Britney’s civil rights being violated?

Her conservatorship battle may be headed to federal court

I rarely post but just had to jump in here.

Vanessa Williams went to my alma mater, Syracuse University, on a musical theater scholarship and dropped out as a junior to compete in Miss America.

She is one of our most famous alumni!

LOL...thanks Maris. I definitely agree, but some people get hung up on us being a big athletic university and forget that we are also a good academic school too!

Anyways..just didn't want people to forget Vanessa's "orange" roots...

Also...I saw Vanessa in "Into the Woods" on Broadway about 3 or 4 years ago. We were waiting outside the theater before the doors opened and security came out and started clearing a path from the street to the door right where I was standing. Vanessa doesn't appear as the Wicked Witch until the last moment of the 1st act so she was just arriving before the doors opened. Anyway, she got dropped off right by me and she was just as gorgeous in jeans and no makeup as she is in that red carpet pic above...and extremely nice also. She was rushed into the theater, but was extremely gracious and polite to everyone on the way in.

My two SIL's went to Syracuse for their undergraduate degrees. Both are brainiacs. I know it's a great school!

I saw Vanessa's biography and she has such a nice family. Her parents raised her with the right values. Music was very important in their family. I've always though she was gorgeous and she still is. She has a wonderful personality to go with it.

I had the pleasure of meeting Vanessa in person when I worked on the set of "Nothing Lasts Forever" (it was primarily filmed in Salt Lake City). I played a medical intern (my group followed Gail O'Grady).

What a classy lady, nice to all of us, seemed like a wonderful mother. Real pleasure to be around. So was Chris Noth (he's REALLY TALL) and Brooke Shields.

Really tall? Oh my! (I had to check.) According to the IMDB, I'm only 1.5" shorter!

britney

Britney out with her dad--the judge has extended the conservatorship for a few more weeks. I think she looks a lot better--seems to be doing her good.

The marriage of pop singer Pink and her husband of two years, motocross racer and former The Surreal Life star Carey Hart, has ended, the singer's publicist, Michele Schweitzer, tells PEOPLE.

"Pink and Carey Hart have separated. This decision was made by best friends with a huge amount of love and respect for one another," says Schweitzer, adding, "While the marriage is over, their friendship has never been stronger."

Pink, 28, and Hart, 32, met at the 2001 X Games and broke up for a time in 2003, but the split was well behind them in 2005, when the singer popped the question to her beau as he sped around the track during a competition in Mammoth Lakes, Calif.

They married in January 2006 at a non-denominational ceremony in Costa Rica. Among the 100 guests was Lisa Marie Presley.

In August 2007, amid reports that the marriage was on the rocks, Hart dismissed the stories as "just a bunch of trash talk."

China Media, Public Angered by Spielberg

Hollywood director Steven Spielberg's decision to quit the Beijing Olympics over the Darfur crisis is drawing condemnation by China's state-controlled media and a groundswell of criticism from the Chinese public.

Last week, the American director withdrew from his role as an artistic adviser to the opening and closing ceremonies of the Summer Games, accusing China of not doing enough to press for peace in the troubled Sudanese region.

Officially, the Chinese government has not directly criticized Spielberg by name, expressing only "regret" over his decision. But the state-run media and the public have been far less restrained.

In newspaper commentaries and lively Internet forums, they have expressed outrage, scorn and bewilderment that China's Olympics have come under international criticism from Spielberg and others.
