The National Enquirer claims Justin Timberlake is allegedly concerned about what Britney Spears will reveal in her upcoming memoir. A source tells the magazine, “Justin’s future is literally in the hands of Britney Spears. She knows everything and is getting paid $15 million to reveal all. Justin has a PR war room set up, but they can’t do anything until they’ve read what she has to say. There is no way Justin’s going to get an advance copy – unless Britney sends him one.”
And lastly, Robert De Niro has named his new baby girl Gia. He and girlfriend Tiffany Chen welcomed her on April 6th. Robert has now 7 kids and is 79.
