Pink's motocross rider husband Carey Hart has filed suit against the bosses of the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, accusing executives of lying about their profits before he invested in the venue. Hart became a shareholder in Hard Rock's Wasted Space Lounge via his firm S&H Projects, but the venue was shut down last August after just two years in business.
He has now filed suit against venue bosses, claiming they hid profits and inflated expenses to mask mismanagement within the hotel, denying S&H its fair share of cash. Hard Rock bosses have denied the allegations, claiming Wasted Space did not make a profit.
Hart is seeking unspecified damages, according to TMZ.com.
Owen Wilson has become the latest celebrity to join parenthood this year. His publicist Ina Treciokas announced on January 10 that the actor and girlfriend Jade Duell, whom he has been dating for more than a year, "are happy to be expecting a baby" together.
While the publicist did not provide more details about the pregnancy, a source said Jade is "due any day". She reportedly also plans to give birth in Hawaii where she is currently living. The source added that the soon-to-be parents "want to do everything as natural as possible."
The baby will be the first child for 42-year-old Owen who is said to be "very excited and involved with the pregnancy." The "Little Fockers" star allegedly "has been been doing research and learning as much as he can. He's super into it and asks a lot of questions to make sure he knows what's going on every step of the way."
Almost at the same time, Marion Cotillard revealed that she is pregnant with her child with boyfriend Guillaume Canet. Previously in late last year, Natalie Portman broke the news that she is expecting her and now fiance Benjamin Millepied's first child.

50 Cent Has Launched A New Wireless Headphone Line
50 Cent has launched a new wireless headphone line on Thursday, January 6 at Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada. Partnering with Sleek Audio, the rapper offers Wireless Hybrid technology using military-grade metals and the latest in fit and performance.
Wearing a formal tuxedo, Fiddy said he is aware that people compare his headphone with the one launched by fellow rapper Dr. Dre. But he confirmed he has something that hasn't been in the market yet. He is confident it will help fans enjoy music in a way that they haven't experienced before.
"I see everyone, not just my fans, enjoying the music. Music is the language of love. Music can break language barriers," he said when introducing the new product to the press. The Sleek by 50 will be available worldwide by Q2 of this year and will be priced at about $350.
"I was fortunate to find Sleek, the technology they employ and their knowledge of how we hear music truly blew me away. It was a perfect match, I didn't want to create another pair of loud headphones, I wanted to create headphones that offer top-level performance, style and new technology," he added in the press release.
