Jennifer Lopez was named as a new judge on “American Idol” on Wednesday (September 22).

The “Back-Up Plan” babe will join fellow rookie judge Steven Tyler when the next season of the hit FOX talent show gets underway.

Denying rumored diva-like demands during negotiations, Lopez said, “After as many years as I’ve been in this business, I’m used to that kind of stuff. I’m used to speculation.”

She continues, “I was calming the FOX people down. I was like, ‘Listen, it’ll be gone tomorrow. Once they hear who we are and what we’re doing, it’s going to be fine. Don’t worry about it.’ I was just looking forward to getting started.”

Lady GaGa made an appearance at the Portland, Maine “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” event on Monday afternoon (September 20).

The “Bad Romance” singer helped bring attention to Tuesday’s planned procedural vote in the Senate that will decide whether to break the filibuster over the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” laws and allow the House-approved bill to come to a vote.

Talking to the Crowd, Gaga said, “Equality is the prime rib of America… [gay soldiers] don’t get to enjoy the greatest cut of meat my country has to offer.”

“I’m here because don’t ask don’t tell is wrong. It’s injust,” she added. “I’m here today because I would like to propose a new law. A law that sends home the soldier that has the problem. Our new law is called, ‘If you don’t like it, go home.’”

Of having the 24-year-old turn up, SLDN’s Emily Sussman told to MTV News, “This has been a very organic process, and it all came from Lady Gaga. She heard the stories of some discharged servicemen and women and insisted that she get involved.”

“Lady Gaga could not have gotten involved at a better time legislatively,” Sussman added. “The House has already acted, and now is the time the Senate has to act. She motivated her base, and her little monsters responded.”

Madonna was spotted on the set of “W.E.” on Friday (September 17).

Word has it, Morgan has the Queen of Pop at the top of the ban list because of beef between the two after Piers criticized her charity work as a publicity stunt.

Dancing on the bonnet of a car to promote the new Volkswagen 2011 Jetta, she threw her arms in the air revealing the tattoo on the inside of her right arm.

It seems this was a move to show of her commitment to the comedian as this month Russell showed off a matching inking on the front cover of Rolling Stones magazine.

The tattoo is a Sanskrit reading Anuugacchati Pravaha which is translated to mean Go With The Flow.
