BREAKING: Mike Vick Cancels Interview With Oprah

According to TMZ.com, troubled NFL quarterback Mike Vick canceled his sit down interview with Oprah Winfrey today. It was to be his first major interview since being released from prison where he served 18 months on dog fighting and animal cruelty charges.

Oprah had won the bet she wagered with CNN host Piers Morgan about who would land the interview with Vick first.

There is no word on why he bailed out of the interview with Oprah. But we can only speculate that Oprah was going to grill him about the dog fighting. Or maybe she planned to bring out the kindhearted people who adopted Vick’s surviving victims.

What else would they have to talk about for a whole hour?

Aubry Withdraws Custody Petition, But He Still Seeks Child Support

According to TMZ.com, a judge has ruled in favor of Halle Berry, 44, taking 2-year-old daughter Nahla to New York where she is filming a movie. The judge disagreed with Gabriel Aubry’s argument that Halle’s work was prohibiting him from co-parenting their child.

As a result, Aubry, 34, withdrew his custody petition in court today, but he is moving forward with his request for child support from Halle. Men can be Gold diggers too:

Sources tell TMZ … Gabriel was trying to block Halle from going to NYC to shoot “New Year’s Eve” — the movie from which she withdrew in order to deal with her custody issues over Nahla.

After hearing arguments this morning from both sides — as Halle looked on — the judge gave her the green light to travel to New York with her kid. We’ve learned she won’t take back the role that was given to Katherine Heigl, but she’ll play another character in the movie.

Halle’s lawyer, Neal Hersh, tells TMZ, “We are pleased the judge took the time to deal with this very imminent and important issue. The judge read a great deal of paperwork and gave us time to argue.”

Hersh added, “Halle is very pleased with the judge’s order.”

Celebs Style: Does your man dress like this?

Soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, 26, looks like he was dressed by his gay stylist for the catwalk. I realize Cristiano is not gay (or so he says), but this look is gay. Hopefully, your man doesn’t dress like this. Tight pants and brand logos all over everything? Um, no. Being a male Brand Diva is not cute or classy.

Ronaldo was spotted outside the “Late Show with David Letterman” studio wearing pieces from his favorite luxury brand, Gucci. He had on a Gucci Vintage Bomber Brown Leather Jacket ($3,775), a Gucci interlocking G buckle belt ($295) and pair of Gucci high-top sneakers ($670) that have interlocking G detail, leather and crocodile trim.

Couple Claims $1 M Lottery Prize One Day Before It Expired

A North Carolina couple has come forward to claim a $1 milion lottery prize the day before it was due to expire.

Yesterday, news spread that the winning lottery ticket had not been claimed and was due to expire today. Many thought the winner lost the ticket or forgot to check the numbers. Lottery winners have 180 days to claim their prizes.

But Erin and Raleigh Hill of North Carolina knew they had the winning ticket that they purchased in Stallings, near Matthews, in August 2010. They just weren’t ready to come forward. So they kept the $1 million lottery ticket secreted in various places, including a Bible, a shoebox and, finally, a work locker.

Midafternoon Tuesday, the nervous couple knew they had to face “the hoopla.” They drove to Raleigh to claim the Mega Million prize that was set to expire at 5 p.m. Wednesday, officials said.

That brought an end of recent frantic searches by others through glove compartments, cupboards and wallets — just in case they had the winning ticket.

The Hills each received a lump sum of $340,000 after taxes, the North Carolina Education Lottery said in a statement.

Celeb Style: Beyonce is Going Butch

According to Antiintellectual bitch, Beyonce is changing up her look drastically to reclaim the spotlight from her competition who have rendered her nearly irrelevant.

Let’s face it, nobody is checking for Bey anymore – except for her fiercely loyal Stans who continue to hang onto hope that Beyonce/Sasha will make a dramatic comeback.

So, Chris Grant (Choreographer for Michael Jackson’s “This is it” Concert and Beyonce’s “I Am” Concert and good friend to me) revealed that he’s been working with Bey and that she’s changing up her look big time. He described it as her going “butch.” I was overly surprised then I was sad and then I was like, ”no more heels, big hair, and make up?” and then I was like, ”She better work!” lol.

Personally, I can’t wait to see Bey’s new look! I love to see beautiful women rocking the tailored menswear look. Not every Diva can pull that look off successfully. Anyone can dress like Bey in big hair and big heels. But in my opinion, a sexy woman is even sexier when she steps outside of her comfort zone.
