Britney Spears Dons A Bikini To Read ‘Top Ten’ List On ‘Letterman’

A bikini-clad Britney Spears hit the set of the “Late Show with David Letterman” on Tuesday, where she presented one of the show’s famous “Top Ten” lists.

The theme of the pop princess’ list was the “Top Ten Ways The Country Would Be Different If Britney Spears Was President.”

Wearing the dark-colored two-piece, and perched on a stool with a red flower in her hair, Britney shared her views.

“I’d be the first president to wear eye shadow since Nixon,” the pop singer said as her No. 10 answer, to hearty laughs from the “Letterman” audience.

Britney said her No. 9 way the country would be different was, “We would only invade fun places like Cabo.”

And in the final clip made available by CBS in advance of the episode airing, Britney offered her No. 8 way the country would be different if she was Commander in Chief.

“Free Pie for everybody,” Britney said, extending out her arms to the camera.

“Letterman” airs on CBS at 11:35 PM local time.

Could Zac Efron’s Next Role Be As Publicist?

Zac Efron reportedly could be spinning gossip rather than basketballs, for his next character on the big screen.

According to E! Online’s Marc Malkin, Zac is considering playing the lead role in the big screen adaptation of “Spin,” a new novel from first-time fiction author Robert Rave. The novel is due out August 18.

While Marc reports that no deals are in place, he claims that Zac would play the central role of Taylor Green, a recent midwestern college grad who ends up working for one of the most despised publicists in New York City – the fictional Jennifer Weinstein. The young man literally stumbles into the job, by sneaking his way into one of Jen’s trendy downtown restaurant openings.

But the swag, “comes at a price, and Taylor struggles to balance his own definition of sanity with that of Jennie’s drug-fueled, high-intensity world,” according to the book’s description.

Zac is currently in production on, “The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud.”

Access reached out to Zac’s rep for comment, but has not yet heard back as of publishing this article.

Was Michael Jackson Planning A ‘Wonderland’ In Las Vegas?

Michael Jackson might have abandoned his Neverland Ranch in recent years, but before the singer’s sudden death on June 25, he was reportedly eyeing a property in Las Vegas that he had dubbed “Wonderland.”

According to The Las Vegas Sun, the pop star had his sights set on a 10-acre compound that he reportedly planned on moving to following his series of comeback concert dates in London.

“He got so excited, the minute we drove through the gates here he got that feeling of Neverland,” said Zar Zanganeh, a realtor with Fine Vegas Estates, told the paper. “As soon as he stepped out of the car, he said, ‘Zar, I love this place. I’m calling it Wonderland.’”

Jackson was reportedly set to offer $16.5 million for the 15,000-square-foot home, which featured secret tunnels, bulletproof doors, other doors disguised as walls and cabinets, and even a panic room.

“Safety was by far his biggest issue,” Zanganeh said. “Michael wanted to make sure that his kids were very safe.

“He was always nervous that someone could perhaps kidnap the kids, or something awful could happen, so safety was the biggest factor for him in finding a home,” he added.

The home also features a car museum big enough for 20 automobiles, a screening room for 16, stables for eight horses and a “doggie villa.”

Additionally, the Vegas home has a golf driving range, basketball and tennis courts, greenhouse, and a pool with waterfalls. There was also a 1,000-square-foot grotto guest suite, which Jackson reportedly planned on turning into a playhouse for his three children.

The home’s indoor shooting range was reportedly going to be converted into a recording studio for the singer.

Prior to announcing his plans to play 50 shows in London, many believed Jackson would make a comeback on the Las Vegas Strip. The singer reportedly recorded music – that has yet to be released – at the Studio at the Palms in 2008.

Tyra Banks To Guest-Star On ‘Gossip Girl’

Tyra Banks is heading from reality television to “Gossip Girl.”

The “America’s Next Top Model” and “The Tyra Banks Show” host will star in an episode of the third season of the popular CW drama this fall – but not as herself, a rep for the show confirmed to Access Hollywood.

Instead, Tyra will join the cast for an episode as Ursula Nyquist, a “larger-than-life actress” that Serena tangles with at a film premiere. It’ll be the supermodel’s first character television role since a 2004 episode of NBC’s “American Dreams.”

She won’t be the only fresh face on The CW show. Hilary Duff will also appear on the program as a movie star, one who enrolls at NYU and rooms with Vanessa (Jessica Szohr). “Gossip” fans will have to wait and see if their paths cross when the show returns this fall.

Marries In Beverly Hills Mark Walhberg

Mark Wahlberg is now a married man.

Wahlberg wed longtime partner Rhea Durham in Beverly Hills on Saturday afternoon, People reported.

The “Max Payne” star and his model wife have three children together, Ella Rae, 5, Michael, 3, and Brendan Joseph, 10 months.

The couple was reportedly joined by a dozen members of their friends and family at Good Shepherd Catholic Church.

According to a People source on the scene, the bride looked “like a princess and beyond stunning” during the 45-minute ceremony, wearing a white strapless dress.

The star previously revealed his plans for a summer wedding to Access Hollywood last October, noting,“We’re talking about August.”

Of his then-newborn son, he said things with Brendan and Rhea were “awesome.”

“[I’m] just happy that they’re both healthy and everybody’s home safe,” he said.

Kanye West Angered Over False Reports He Was Claiming ‘King Of Pop’ Title Following Michael Jackson’s Death

Kanye West may have made a lot of boasts in his career, but claiming to be the new King of Pop following the death of Michael Jackson is not one of them.

The superstar rapper hit his official Web site to shoot down rumors that he’s taking the title from the late Michael Jackson.

“I was just listening to [radio host] Wendy Williams and heard some quote about me saying I’m the new King of Pop,” he wrote. “Not only did I not say that, I haven’t said anything.”

Kanye also blogged that it upsets him that people would think he would make such a statement following Michael’s death.

“It makes me feel bad that obviously I made people feel that I would be corny enough to say something so whack after the passing of an idol, a legend and more than that a human being with feelings and a family,” the star continued.

The “Stronger” performer said he is angered that the fake comments went viral on the Internet.

“It scares me to think what people will believe, without even a source,” he wrote. “Any random person can type something on the Internet and then the world believes it. I don’t talk to press or do TV or do promotions of any sort. I’ve stopped chasing and buying into fame. Fame is like cigarettes with no surgeon general warning. It destroys most people as it did to the true and only King of Pop. We exploit ourselves and eat our own egos ‘Till there is nothing left.”

And, Kanye — who has previously blogged about being satirized on “South Park” and spoken out on other issues — vowed to no longer address the rumors about him.

“I have a feeling that this won’t be the last false statement with my name on it, but this will be the last time I defend myself. I’m done,” he wrote.
