Rose McGowan was being considered for a starring role in “Speed Racer,” but the studio felt her plastic surgery left her unrecognizable. Here’s more:

McGowan, 34, has admitted to having plastic surgery for an eye injury related to a car accident. But casting skeptics suspect she has had much more done, and that it cost her the role. "The studio felt like she was hard to recognize and worried that by the time the movie hit theaters, fans might not know who she was," says our insider.

When has plastic surgery stopped an actress from getting a role? You should have seen her before the accident. It’s faces like hers that they make halloween masks out of. In porn plastic surgery is considered a prerequiste. If the report said she didn’t get the role because she was too old to be believable, then I’d believe it. Rose wasn’t the only one passed over. Zac Efron was up for the title role, but wasn’t the right fit:

”During his auditions, Zac never connected to the romantic lead in the reading,” says our source. “By the second round, the casting crew didn’t feel he was believable as a leading man/hero.”

Zac looks completely gay. The only role he could play as a leading man that would make sense is something that requires a gay man like High School Musical. If they had switched the roles around and had Zac play the girl, and Rose play the guy, then it might have worked.

Rose McGowan and director Robert Rodriquez got engaged the other day. Now that her acting career may be in a bit of a slump she’s resorting to her back up plan. Bang a guy with some money while she’s still hot enough to hook him, then live on his money after the divorce. Men’s back up plan is winning the lottery. Here’s more:

Spies in L.A. report she’s been showing off a new diamond engagement ring from director Robert Rodriguez. McGowan met Rodriguez on the set of "Grindhouse" when he directed her as a peg-legged ex-stripper in his half of the double feature, "Planet Terror." He was soon divorcing his wife.

Not long after these two are married Rose will divorce him, take as much money as she can, and everyone will pat her on the back for screwing over a cheating man. All he’ll have left is one hand full of his manhood, and the other hand full of lottery tickets.

According to the Daily Mail, Amy Winehouse’s father has joined forces with her record label to gain control over her finances while she struggles with her addictions.

Amy’s new husband Blake Fielder-Civil is being painted as the bad guy in this scenario and the reason for the legal wrangling.

According to a source, unemployed Blake controls the cash. The source said: "Amy just hands everything over to him. . .

Mitch has told a friend he fears Blake’s influence will see Amy overdosing or committing suicide if he leaves or cheats.

“It makes me sick, he’s the reason she’ll die. I’m not going to see him get everything that she worked so hard for,” he told the friend.

After Amy and Blake were photographed covered in blood and scratches two weeks ago, they were spotted in a bank where she withdrew hundreds of pounds in cash, and then handed it over to her husband.

You know what they always say, "The couple that cuts together, spends all the money on drugs together."

The photo below illustrates the toll her career and the drugs and perhaps the hubby have had on her.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that she may not survive this.

From the steamy temptress in the Whitesnake video to a woeful stint on "The Surreal Life," Tawny Kitaen’s life has taken quite a turn. And it continues to get worse, with TMZ revealing that an ex-boyfriend of hers may have stole millions from her.

According to a lawsuit filed today in L.A. County Superior Court and obtained by TMZ, Kitaen hired a forensic handwriting expert to analyze her financial and real estate records when she became suspicious of her ex Philip Cyburt — and Tawny claims the analysis proved what she had been thinking all along; "a betrayal of the most personal in nature."

In the suit, Kitaen claims "she never imagined this seemingly honest and caring man would slither into her life only to rob her of over three million dollars during the course of their four-year relationship."

Tawny also claims that Cyburt, a loaded real estate executive, sold properties she owned in West Hollywood, Newport Beach and Los Angeles and routed the profits into his personal accounts. Kitaen also claims that he then repurchased the real estate at a higher price with her cash.

Not that we don’t believe her, but some might say she could have more luck looking somewhere else for the missing money…like up her nose.

So it looks like little Hilary Duff is hockey fan. The singer/actress has been spotted around town with New York Islanders forward Mike Comrie. Not only is Mr. Comrie a decent player, but he’s also an heir to the Brick Warehouse fortune.

Sadly, no amount of money will fix his lowly Islanders this season, but knowing he’ll be coming home to Hilary after the games might just get him through those long nights.

With the recent stories making the rounds about her, we had lost our faith in Kelly Clarkson’s brains. Today, though, we learn about some impressive decisions she made after American Idol.

US Magazine is sharing some quotes from a recent Reader’s Digest interview with Kelly.

“I have saved and saved, and I don’t have to work another day. When I won Idol and started working with a business manager, she asked, ‘What do you want?’ I was like, I don’t ever want to have to make a decision because I need money. So we accomplished that two years ago, and I’m set.”

We’re feeling nice today, otherwise we’d call her a braggart. But, it makes you wonder whether Clarkson should write a book, "Rub the Stardust Out of Your Eyes, This Ain’t Going to Last Forever: Money Rules for Reality Show Winners"

She could make millions. Not that she needs it. Miss Independent, indeed.
