-- Beyonce Knowles tops Forbes' list of the 12 Best-Paid Celebrities Under 30 for the second consecutive year, besting fellow pop divas Britney Spears (at No. 2) and Lady Gaga (No.3). Knowles, 28, raked in $87 million thanks to a world tour, endorsement deals with Nintendo and L'Oreal, and her House of Dereon clothing line. [OMG!]

-- Talk about a catfight! Outspoken animal-lover Pamela Anderson, 43, is putting Janet Jackson on blast for appearing in ads for BlackGlama's mink collection. "It's disappointing," Anderson says. "She has spoken out against fur before. I don't know why some people stop listening to their heart. I guess some people get greedy, but it's sad." [Wonder Wall]

-- After photos surfaced of Paris Hilton allegedly giving a Nazi salute while partying in St. Tropez, France, a rep for the socialite, 29, said the pictures were a misunderstanding. "Paris was dancing and having fun with her arm up in the air as she always dances like that and was scratching (her) face when a photo was taken," the rep said. "The hat was a military-style hat from a club." [Star Pulse]

-- Zac Efron, 22, praised his former High School Musical co-star Corbin Bleu, 21, after seeing his pal's performance in Broadway's In The Heights. "He's so amazing. He just really, really nails that part," Efron said on Regis & Kelly Tuesday. "I'm just so proud of him up there on stage." [Just Jared, Jr.]

-- "Tik Tok" singer Ke$ha tells Papermag that she's obsessed with DIY tattoos. "A friend of mine told me you can do it with pen ink and a safety pin and I was like, 'That's amazing. I could give tattoos at anywhere in the world at any hotel,'" the singer, 23, says. "I saw this hot dude recently and I gave him a tattoo sitting in the lobby of the hotel. I was just like 'Can I borrow a pen and a sewing kit?' I think I got an admirer out of that one." [Huffington Post]

    These entertainers got ya'll young folk paying attention to the wrong messages. Money and cars...Psht! How about your health care. When was the last time you went to the dentist? And what in Beyonce's income covers YOUR health benefits? Pay attention. Beyonce, Drake, Lil Wayne are all just trying to get by...ON YOUR DIME! All I'm saying is you better make darn sure their messages are worth your money...

    Having money is fine, but how many people in the world have a ton of money and ain't happy? Why is it that the people who find the most happiness are USUALLY in some quiet corner of the world, usually with no money? Money doesn't equate happiness...happiness does. Look at Kanye West. First he was singing about the good life and then his mother died. Now what's he doing? Ask yourself this question...do you think Kanye wants that money or his mother??? What about Janet Jackson? She's lived a good life for the most part until her BROTHER DIED. What do you think she want's most now? Her millions of dollars or HER BROTHER? What about lil mama? You know why she ain't been on the scene? Because it's kind of hard to sing about lip gloss when her mother just past from HEALTH complications. My point, all you people acting like Beyonce's got it all...ask yourself this...do you think she wants the money and fame, or to see her father and mother at peace? Who wants to see their father treat their mother like sh*t after being together for so long...and don't fool yourselves and lie on this post for the sake of your pointless opinion. TELL THE TRUTH! Kanye, Lil Mama, the Jackson family, and even Beyonce knows...MONEY DON'T BUY HAPPINESS!!!! Hate on that....if you want...it's still the truth. Good day mates!

    What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul? Being rich hardly EVER involves money, beauty, cars and clothes. Educate yourselves on true happiness. If I were to be jealous, it wouldn't be for things that you can't take with you to the grave, that's for sure. Money can't buy happiness, love, health or good life. Don't believe the hype.

    i hate her

  • July 28, 2010 - 10:55pm To: Whatever

    I agree we should take care of all of God's creatures on earth. People, animals, water, land, sea, etc. The BIG DIFFERENCE with innocent Minks is people don't pay thousands & thousands of dollars to rip out bushes & sport them around JUST for the sake of fashion. What's wrong with wearing a cotton made coat for warmth? Why are God's creatures being PAINFULLY killed in order to impress someone? It's likely next year, the coat that took the life of God's creation will be out of style. Sad & Ridiculous! Don't get it twisted, I'm a fan of Janet & Bey, trust me! I just don't agree with them or any other celeb that gets down like this. Not cool! People need to not be so self centered, & think about other's feelings including animals too.

    Bey is my role model. I luv her cos of her diligence, humility and responsibility. Kip ur work straight and u will alwz receive the reward. "Why dn't u love me" is a nice song though the make-up was much and scary unlike my Beyonce. Kip on being urself and original.

  • July 28, 2010 - 5:19pm LLK

    what a mess!

  • July 28, 2010 - 10:21am whatever

    as far as Pam Anderson is concern about the little minks..what about the animals in the wild that are having their habitate cut down to make what...the little lost animal big animal birds squirrels, everthing that lives in the wooded area, and trees woods bushes all are being destroyed to build ne building make new roads and god knows what else. so this is no different to me..mink coats, all trees etc are being killed to do other things.

  • July 28, 2010 - 10:13am go Bey

    Thats right Bey you have done almost everything you wanted to do in life, you deserve to be reconize..great job, well derserve sucess..i want my Jay-Z back. LOL

  • July 28, 2010 - 9:39am HIMYM

    YAAAS.. Beyonce 2 years in a row. Great job and well deserved success. Go Bey!

  • July 27, 2010 - 11:13pm Moni

    Continued: On another note, I love animals too, so I am with Pamela Anderson on this issue. Poor little Minks. What did they do 2 deserve to die? :(

  • July 27, 2010 - 11:09pm Moni

    Good 4 her. She's able to receive monetary blessings, b'cause she's such a giving person, i.e. helping victims of Katrina, visiting sick kids in the hospital & assisting with people devastated in Haiti. U reap what u sow.
