Megan Fox (Click to see photos of the top ten in FHM’s Sexiest Women in the World for 2008.)
The blue-eyed beauty from “Transformers” has landed at the top of FHM’s sexy list.
Megan Fox, 21, beat out the likes of Scarlett Johansson and Angelina Jolie to get the No. 1 spot in FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women in the World for 2008.
“Megan is the deserving winner of this year’s FHM title,” said FHM Online U.S. Editor JR Futrell. “She’s young, she’s hot, she’s a rising star and her sex appeal has definitely transformed this year’s list. She’s got a great future ahead of her.”
Fox has slowly worked her way up the list in the last two years. She originally premiered on it in 2006 at No. 68. In 2007, she crawled up three spots to 65.
Her sudden leap to the top came largely because of her sexy turn in Michael Bay‘s robot-smashing “Transformers,” as the love interest to Shia LaBeouf. It was a far cry from her more wholesome role as the older daughter on the ABC family sitcom, “Hope & Faith,” starring Faith Ford and Kelly Ripa.
Joining Fox on the list’s top ten are Jessica Biel, Scarlett Johansson, Hilary Duff and “Battlestar Galactica” star Tricia Helfer. Last year’s topper, Jessica Alba, fell to No. 3 on the list.
Britney Spears came in at No. 100.
According to FHM, nearly 9 million votes were cast by readers in this, their 14th annual top 100. Other actresses considered “sexy” by voters were Lindsay Lohan (16), Cameron Diaz (18), Beyonce Knowles (20), Jennifer Aniston (42), Eva Longoria Parker (59), Fergie (60), Katie Holmes (65), and Paris Hilton (77).

Aw, is John Mayer scoring points with ex-girlfriend and former MTV reality star Jessica Simpson or what? While Jessica Simpson is taking lots o’ flak for boyfriend Tony Romo’s poor football performance, John Mayer is sticking up for the pop (or is it country?) singer/actress.
Jessica Simpson has been rumored to put a “Jessica Jinx” on Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys, but John Mayer comes to her defense, writing in his blog:
“I don’t really follow sports, but I have played some of my biggest and best concerts in your state, and having witnessed how dynamic the spirit there is, I’m betting emotions are running high right about now.
All witty barbs, blogs, and fashion policing aside, that girl loves Texas more than you know. It’s one of her most defining traits as a person. So please don’t try and take that away from her. (You probably wouldn’t be able to, but it’s less work for all involved.)
I just thought it would mean something coming from the guy who has the absolute least to gain from this. And if I’m out of line in having written it, too bad. I can spare a Wednesday’s worth of bad press if it means sticking up for a good soul.”
As mentioned previously, Britney Spears lost custody and visitation rights with her sons Sean Preson and Jayden James and now OK! magazine is reporting that friends fear her loneliness may cause her to have another child, but this time with her married paparazzo boyfriend Adnan Ghalib. A family member said:
“Britney hates when things are taken from her. The court’s taken Preston and Jayden away, so she’ll just have another kid to take their place. That’s the way she thinks.”
Britney was recently spotted wearing a new engagement ring and looking at pregnancy tests at Right Aid on Monday night!
The crazy girl and the married pap work pretty quickly eh? Scary! Someone lock her up already!
Review: Madonna’s Hard Candy

On Madonna’s 11th album, Hard Candy, the queen of pop invites us to imagine her as a confectioner running a musical sweet shop.
But, after sitting through the 12 tracks on offer here, you’ll begin to wish she’d stocked more than two varieties of candy.
Those flavours come from two of America’s most bankable songwriting teams: The Neptunes and Timbaland, who between them have conjured up hits for the likes of Britney Spears, Jay-Z, Missy Elliot and Justin Timberlake.
Timberlake himself crops up on five of the tracks, posing a particularly pertinent question about who is running the show when he asks “Who is the master? Who is the slave?” as the album closes.
This sort of top flight production is an unusual step for Madonna, who has a reputation for seeking out relatively obscure dance producers like Mirwais, Shep Pettibone and Stuart Price to helm her albums.
This time round, however, the queen of reinvention is trying to win back the hearts of the US audience – who were largely unimpressed with her 2005 love letter to disco, Confessions On A Dancefloor.

 The main themes are love, revenge, sex and music – subjects on which Madonna surely has little left to say  |
It all starts off well enough. Opening track Candy Shop is an agenda-setting call to arms, with Madonna promising a “special connection” and “plenty of heat”.
The minimal, skittering drums are punctured by colossal stabs of synth, while Madonna purrs weak sweet shop-related innuendos: “Don’t pretend you’re not hungry, there’s plenty to eat… I got Turkish Delights.”
You get the picture.
Things step up a gear with the Justin Timberlake collaboration 4 Minutes, which features the best use of cowbell in pop since Free’s All Right Now, but sounds so futuristic it could realistically have been beamed in from the end of the world.
‘Pop moments’
Lyrically, the album plays it safe. Madonna may have been inspired to make a documentary about the Aids epidemic in Africa when she adopted two-year-old Malawian orphan David Banda, but you would be hard pressed to find any social commentary in her music.
The main themes are love, revenge, sex and music – subjects on which Madonna surely has very little left to say at this stage in her career.

She even repeats herself, echoing Into The Groove when she sings “Don’t you know, can’t you see? When I dance I feel free” on Heartbeat.
Then again, Madonna has always been at her best when extolling the virtues of music as a release, and it is on Hard Candy’s club-orientated tracks that she excels.
She’s Not Me, a Neptunes production, feels like a five-minute musical summary of her career to date.
It kicks off with Chic-esque guitars that are reminiscent of Holiday before morphing into a pulsing club groove that could have been lifted straight from her last album.
Track three, Give It To Me, is already pencilled in as the album’s second single. It is one of the record’s few out-and-out pop moments, featuring a cute, bouncy beat and a sense of humour that has been missing from Madonna’s music since her Dick Tracy days.
“If it’s against the law, arrest me, if you can handle it, undress me,” she chirps as the song builds to a blistering crescendo that will surely be the highlight of any future live set.

Clooney thrills fans at premiere
Posted on: April 9, 2008
Screen idol George Clooney was greeted by hundreds of screaming fans at the UK premiere of his new film Leatherheads.
The 46-year-old accompanied co-star Renee Zellweger to the Leicester Square screening of the romantic comedy.
Clooney plays an American footballer who gets caught up in a love triangle with a reporter in the 1920s-set film.
But he said that in real life, his sporting ambitions were frustrated: “I did have two try-outs with the Cincinnati Reds. I only lacked talent.”
At one point, wannabe Nancys from the BBC One show I’d Do Anything joined crowds outside the Odeon Leicester Square.

Asked at a press conference before the premiere about his appeal to women, Clooney joked: “What’s not to love? How much time do we have? I think it’s really hair.”
Co-star Zellweger, 38, added: “It looks almost natural.”
Earlier in the day, Clooney visited Downing Street to discuss the Darfur crisis with Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
Leatherheads, which opened to mixed reviews, has recorded disappointing takings in the US.
It came third at last weekend’s North American box office, behind gambling film 21 and fantasy Nim’s Island.
“I wish I could have that crystal ball and tell you what went wrong,” Nikki Rocco, head of distribution for Universal, said earlier this week.
