They tend to be surprised and hurt, and we understand that and we’re sorry for it.”

Tatum O’Neal, the daughter of Fawcett’s longtime partner Ryan O’Neal, stated, “On behalf of myself, my father Ryan O’Neal and my entire family, we are deeply saddened that a truly beautiful and talented actress Farrah Fawcett was not included in the memorial montage during the 82nd Academy Awards.

Coming up in September, Dita will be flying to Australia for a one-night-only performance of her show “Be Cointreauversial.”

She told press, “Being someone who performs in a big martini glass, it always seemed obvious I should team up with a liquor brand. I had been approached before and with all of the other companies there was this ‘cheese factor’ - they didn’t really get it.

“When Cointreau approached, everything was very elegant. I liked their approach to me, my work and their advertising. Their ideas were amazing - they wanted to be provocative but not over the top and convey what I try to convey in my shows. They knew it was about being risque and sexy, but not about sex and that the shows combine humor, sensuality, playfulness and fun.”

They’re both major pop stars in their own right, but Lady GaGa and Beyonce Knowles have teamed up for GaGa’s new single “Telephone.”

Both sexy songstresses sported distinctive looks during the video shoot, as is usual for a Lady GaGa production.

During a recent interview with Tyra Banks, Beyonce explained her enthusiasm over working with the “Just Dance” diva.

“I am such a huge fan of hers. We just filmed her video two weeks ago in Los Angeles, and it’s gonna be so crazy. I don’t want to give too much away because I don’t want her to be upset, but it’s a part two of ‘Paparazzi.’ She’s just so smart and she’s becoming an icon in her own right.”
