Beyoncé is already a wonderful mom, Destiny's Child pals say

Beyoncé just brought baby Blue Ivy Carter home from the hospital but motherhood, according to her former Destiny's Child bandmates, is as natural for the pop star as dancing in stilettos and a leotard.

"She's doing fabulous," Michelle Williams told PEOPLE on the red carpet at the taping of the 2012 BET Honors in Washington, D.C., on Saturday

"She was born to be a mother," Kelly Rowland added at the show, which will air February 13. "She's wonderful."

According to Williams, Beyoncé has what it takes to be a great mother to baby Blue. "She has such compassion for people and humanity, period," she said.

Justin Bieber unveils new Jesus tattoo on calf

Justin Bieber unveiled a new tattoo on his calf, during a beach outing in Orange County, Calif. on January 4.

The 17-year-old pop star had a new black ink portrait of Jesus tattooed on his left calf, which appears in photos obtained by Celebuzz.

The art is not Bieber's first foray into tattoos. He also has Jesus' name written in Hebrew on his rib cage and a bird tattoo on his left hip, which matches one of his father's tattoos.

Bieber opened up about his religious beliefs to the Associated Press a few years back.

"I'm a Christian, I believe in God, I believe that Jesus died on a cross for my sins," Bieber told the Associated Press in November 2010. "I believe that I have a relationship and I'm able to talk to him and really, he's the reason I'm here, so I definitely have to remember that. As soon as I start forgetting, I've got to click back and be like, you know, this is why I'm here."

Bieber posted a photo from his beach outing on his Populagram account on Wednesday evening, referencing "The O.C." TV series he wrote, "Was in the O.C lookin for Seth and Summer. Turns out it was all a bunch of bs."

Over the past few weeks, he has also posted several photos of his father and siblings and one of him posing in a nativity scene (pictured above).

On Saturday night, Bieber performed the Beatles song "Let It Be" on "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve With Ryan Seacrest 2012" with Carlos Santana. He also debuted a new song, "Happy New Year" with his friend and Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith's son Jaden Smith.

Justin Timberlake, Jessica Biel are engaged, reports say

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are engaged, several reports say, but the two are not commenting about it.

Timberlake, 30, popped the question to Biel, 29, during a recent trip to Montana, People magazine said on Thursday, January 5. Us Weekly reported that the event occurred in "the mountains of Jackson, Wyoming" in late December.

Timberlake, a pop singer whose acting career took off after the 2010 film "The Social Network," and Biel, who rose to fame with the series "7th Heaven," have never been married before.

The two have been dating on and off for more than four years. Their most recent breakup was confirmed in March 2011. They reunited months later and were seen and photographed together at several Los Angeles parties and promotional events in the fall.

Amber Rose blames Kim Kardashian for Kanye West split

Amber Rose has long hinted that Kim Kardashian was to blame for her split from Kanye West, but she has now said it explicitly, saying she needed to "get this off my chest."

"Kim is one of the main reasons why me and Kanye are not together," Rose told Star magazine. "She's a homewrecker!"

Rose claimed that the affair occurred when the reality star was still dating NFL player Reggie Bush.

"They were both cheating," the 28-year-old model continued. "They were both cheating on me and Reggie with each other."

Rose claimed that she sent Kardashian an email, asking her to stop but that the reality star ignored her plea.

"She was sending pictures, and I was like, 'Kim, just stop. Don't be that person,'" Rose said. "I thought at least she'd be woman enough to respond to me. She never responded... It's very important that us women stick together and we don't [expletive] each other over like that."

Rose and West parted ways in July 2010 after two years together and according to Us Weekly, Rose was spotted kissing Reggie Bush over the 4th of July weekend. She has since moved on with rapper Wiz Khalifa and said she has the reality star to thank for her happiness.

"I want to thank her," Rose about Kim. "Because if she was never a homewrecker, then I never would have met Wiz, and I wouldn't be as happy as I am now."

Rose confirmed her statements on her WhoSay account on Wednesday writing, "After being asked the same questions over and over in every interview for so long i had to be honest and get this off my chest... I don't lie, i don't embellish I'm not trying to hurt anyone just setting the record straight. #FAME is a Crazy thing But I'm so thankful I have a AMAZING husband that Loves and supports me to the fullest he's my Angel and soulmate."

Kardashian seemed to address the controversy on Twitter, writing a cryptic message on Thursday, "Remember, people only rain on your parade because they're jealous of your sun & tired of their shade."

The star of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" and "Kourtney & Kim Take New York" said her New Year's resolution was "to really give back more and not make everything so much about myself."

Tiger Woods’ ex-wife bulldozes $12 million home



There are times when divorce forces people to do strange things. Burn sheets. Throw out clothes. Toss rings into the ocean. But when you get $100 million in your divorce, you can trump just about anything and that's what happened with Tiger Woods' ex-wife when she bought a $12 million home and bulldozed the whole thing.

[Check the before picture above and the after picture after the jump]

Yes, according to TMZ, Elin Nordegren bought a $12 million home in North Palm Beach, Fla., but didn't like it, and has plowed the whole thing.

The house, which had six bedrooms and eight bathrooms, is now just rubble, with no word yet on what is going to replace the beautiful building you see above, but I guess when you have nine figures in the bank, it doesn't really matter what you want.

I guess we can all applaud Elin on not rolling over after all this happened and continuing on with her life. But I think we can all agree on one thing: Why in the world is she still in Florida? Wouldn't you want to move back home for good?
