"They don't want stuff like that pushed in their face," he added. "I don't think that's necessary and that's also not what I'm here for. I mean, I went on Idol to be a singer, I went on Idol to be an entertainer and that's what my priority is."

Naomi Campbell has been charged with assaulting a police officer at London's Heathrow Airport, her lawyer told BBC News Thursday.
She has also been charged with one count of disorderly conduct and one count of using threatening, abusive words or behavior towards cabin crew.
The model, 38, was arrested in April aboard a British Airways flight when she threw a fit after her carry-on bags came up missing.
"Miss Campbell is bitterly disappointed that the prosecutors have advised her she is to be prosecuted for various offences," her lawyer said in a statement after she answered bail at a London police station Thursday.
"She respects that decision and she hopes this matter is dealt with expeditiously," he said.
She is due in court June 20.
Last year, Campbell was ordered to spend a week mopping floors at a NYC warehouse for assaulting her maid with a cell phone. -US

Fire Devours Universal Studios Sets
By Kristin Boehm
A massive fire raged on a back lot at Universal Studios early Sunday, devouring several movie sets.
"The King Kong exhibit is three quarters lost," Inspector Rick Garrido of the Los Angeles County Fire department told PEOPLE Sunday. "The New York set has been totally lost."
Right now the fire is contained to a single structure, and they expect to have it under control within an hour. "Universal City Walk and Studios is open," he said "Only the backlot is closed."
Universal Studios is also the scene of Sunday's MTV Movie Awards. MTV tells PEOPLE the show will go on as planned.
Los Angeles County Fire Inspector Daryl Jacobs said at least one building had burned and as many as three blocks of movie facades were destroyed. "The facades are constructed of heavy timber and they tend to burn quite freely," he said.
Investigators have not yet determined the cause of the fire, which broke out just before dawn on a sound stage, fire Capt. Frank Reynoso said, adding that more than 100 firefighters were trying to prevent the flames from spreading to nearby brush and there was at least one explosion.
Recent films and TV shows that have used the now lost "New York Street" set are Spiderman 2, The Transformers, Ghost Whisperer, and Crossing Jordan.
Universal Studios spokesman Elliot Sekuler said the theme park would open Sunday, though the studio tour would be affected by the blaze.
Some of the more familiar attractions on the back lot are the clock tower from the Back To The Future movies and the house featured in Psycho. - People | | |

BREAKING NEWS!
George Clooney and Sarah Larson Split
George Clooney and his girlfriend Sarah Larson have split up after a year of dating, a source tells PEOPLE.
The actor's rep, Stan Rosenfield, would only say: "We do not comment on George's personal life."
The pair initially met in Las Vegas nearly four years ago, when Larson, a onetime Fear Factor winner, was a cocktail server at The Whiskey Bar. But it wasn't until the pair met for the second time in June 2007 in Las Vegas that sparks flew.
Larson, 29, and Clooney, 47, made their public debut together at the Venice and Deauville film festivals last September. Later that month, the twosome were injured in a motorcycle accident.
Earlier this year, Larsen accompanied Clooney to the Oscars – the first girlfriend ever to go with him to the event.
Though there was speculation that Clooney would end his longtime bachelorhood, in March the actor shot down rumors of an engagement. -People

RIP Xavier Kingston Joiner
Xzibit is mourning the loss of his two-week-old son Xavier Kingston Joiner.
The rapper, 33, blogged the news on his MySpace page at 4:32 a.m. Monday — an hour after his son passed - under the headline "I have some bad news."
He said his son (who arrived May 15) was born prematurely and it became extremely "difficult for him [to breathe] because his lungs were not strong enough to handle regular oxygen on his own.
"I must tell you," the rapper went on, "it is [unnatural] for a parent to bury a child."
He told parents "life is too short" and urged them to "hold on to your kids if you have them, protect them and show them you love them everyday you wake up.
"You can have all the material wealth in the universe, but it is NOTHING compared to having your family," the rapper wrote. "I am thankful for all of my blessings and [I'm] not one to question God's perfect plan, so I leave you with great love...."
He signed off: "R.I.P Xavier May 15th 2008 - May 26th 2008" -US

David Cook Visits Luke Menard in the Hospital
Preparing for the American Idol finale means long hours and hard work. But days before David Cook was declared the season seven winner, he dropped everything to visit with fellow top 24 contestant Luke Menard in a Los Angeles hospital.
Menard, 29, was diagnosed with Stage 2 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
“I love Luke and I just wanted to show up and make sure that he understood that I love him and know that if there’s anything I can do for him and his wife, sign me up, you know?” Cook tells PEOPLE. “Luke, Michael Johns, Jason Yeager and myself, we kind of buddy-ed up one day at Hollywood week,” Cook explains. “We called ourselves the four horsemen. Any time one of your own is going through something as horrible as that, it makes everything else seem a little bit insignificant.
“Cancer,” Cook says, “is a very big part of my existence.” Cook’s older brother Adam has been battling brain cancer for ten years. “I’m excited to be put in [the spotlight] where I can hopefully do something to help other people.” –Monica Rizzo - People | | |

The estate also reportedly features a swimming pool, billiards room, indoor pool, his-and-hers gyms, sauna and jacuzzi and a huge banquet hall.

Rehab News
Kirsten Dunst is opening up about why she checked into a Utah treatment center last year.
“I didn’t go to Cirque Lodge for alcohol abuse or drug abuse,” the actress, 26, tells E! in a new interview. “I went there for depression.”
She says "it was a good six months before I decided to go away.
“I was struggling, and I had the opportunity to go somewhere and take care of myself," she continues. "I was fortunate to have the resources to do it. My friends and family thought it was a good idea, too. But I didn't know where to go. My doctor recommended Cirque Lodge."
As for battling depression, she says celebs are no different than anyone else.
“We’re all in the same boat together," Dunst says. "Depression is pretty serious and should not be gossiped about.”
She says "there’s been a lot of misrepresentation about what is going on in my life," including reports that she was dropped as the face of Miu Miu because of her personal problems.
Those claims, she says, are "very painful for my friends and family.
“Everyone feels like they have to defend me. They hear the rumors, and it puts them in a defensive position," she adds. "Now that I’m feeling stronger, I [am] prepared to say something.”
Lastly, Dunst set the record straight on one last rumor: "I am not dating [my All Good Things co-star] Ryan Gosling!” -US
