To what extent is ex-Destiny's Child singer Kelly Rowland's career floundering? We can't be exactly sure about how deep it's sunk, but we do know it's gotten low enough for her PR people to start sending out offensively transparent press releases disguised as SECRET TIPS. This arrived in the Stereohyped inbox yesterday, sent by a subtly named MrMusicHollywood, who says he has a "great relationship with the Sony/BMG International offices":
• John Mayer upped the douche factor by charging a fan $10 to take a picture with him. [YouTube]
• The Ashlee Simpson-Pete Wentz wedding photo nobody has been dying to see. [People]
• Kelly Rowland is bitter she lost out a Sex and the City role to Jennifer Hudson. Trust us, Kel. It's a good thing. [ICYDK]
• Jessica Simpson is nursing her broken heart in Cabo with her parents. What a tough life. [INO]
• Martha Stewart is the new face of the "Got Milk?" ads, because if anyone can make you want to pick up a carton, it's her. [DListed]
• Good news: Jessica Alba and Cash Warren will be having another wedding so everyone can join in on their marital bliss. Does this mean they will have to get two divorces? [PS]
What's the thought process behind a woman wearing her most provocative outfit for a performance at a club called G-A-Y?

And another one:
Since her secret wedding last month, Beyonce Knowles has been glowing even more than usual.
…
Sources close to the Crazy In Love singer have hinted there could be double celebrations - as she and husband Jay-Z get set to have their first baby.

NBC is actually going to broadcast a show called Clash of the Choirs, simultaneously sating America's forgotten Sister Act 2 fans and proving that this writer's strike really needs to come to an end.
Michael Bolton, Patti LaBelle, Nick Lachey and Kelly Rowland are all involved with the show in some way or another, which should give you a clear understanding of just where their careers are going. Vanessa Minnillo will be hosting.
It's going to be terrible. Also: Quit putting church stuff on our TV!
Kelly Rowland has gone on record to say that she's just learning black is beautiful, and that, prior to now, she always wanted to have lighter skin. This from Page Six:
"It's said that brown-skinned girls don't sell magazines and that's so sad," the sexy songbird tells next month's Essence. "I remember wishing I was more fair-skinned, but Tina Knowles, Beyoncé's mom, would say, 'Don't you know how beautiful you are?' She made me come into my brown beauty. I didn't get it, but now I do. I am chocolate and beautiful and loving it."
I suppose this new found sense of self extends as far as that feathered hairdo, on which Rowland spent a lot of time and money in order to make it look white.
• Zach Galifianakis + Will Oldham + Kanye West = Huh? That's funny. [BWE]
• I'd say the bottle is the least of her worries. [DListed]
• Here, Beyonce falls down a much smaller flight of stairs than Kelly Rowland would have liked. [HT]
• Turns out the Harry Potter flicks worked like a Givemeum Lootum spell. [ICYDK]
• Britney can't trust anyone. That should be good for her already damaged psyche. [Yeeeah]
• And the gay porn related to this flick begins. [CityRag]
• Oh, that's why I always cry! [HE]
• Stand by your much more successful friend so that Jay-Z might look favorably upon you when you next need a producer. Right? [DListed]
• Avril Lavigne says she wants to act, clearly forgetting that that's what her entire persona is. [ICYDK]
• The problems start with the hat and they keep going to the annoyed old lady technique of umbrella-as-weapon. [CityRag]
• Pamela Anderson and that damn magician, again. That goddamn Aryan magician haunts my private moments! [DS]
• Bee Movie does have A-list support. [PopSugar]
• Jessica Alba apparently likes her sex like she likes her film roles: absolutely meaningless. [HT]
