Twitter

Somewhere, Bill O'Reilly is preparing a tirade.

Samantha Ronson says music is what connects her with her spiritual side. It's an understandable sentiment, however she may want to reconsider her phrasing.

The former girlfriend of Lindsay Lohan spins at a party called Take Em to Church Sundays, which predictably earned flak from her considerable Twitter following.

When one "fan" berated her on Twitter for "more religion crammed down our throats," SamRo responded, "religion?? F*%k religion. My religion is music, homie."

We imagine she'll be hearing about that one.

Samantha Ronson does not mince words.

As we reported over the weekend, Lady Gaga has usurped Britney Spears as the new Queen of Twitter. She's now #1 in followers among ALL HUMANS.

But what good is a monarch without respect for the people they serve, a few edicts - and a costume crafted in honor of the social networking site?

Not a lot if you ask us.

"I wanted to thank all my beautiful little monsters for following me," she said in the inauguration video below. "Thank you for beginning my reign as Twitter queen. May you always have soft cuticles while tweeting, may you never have carpal tunnel."

"I vow to never partake in celebrity online shenanigans. And I vow to always tweet and tweet again," she said ... before getting called to rehearsal.

Twitter Queen

With 5,771,673 followers at last count, Lady Gaga has assumed a larger lead on Spears (5,719,432) in the last couple of days, so it looks like this queen isn't being voted out anytime soon. Which makes sense. Queens and democracy don't mix.

Following last night's fifth season premiere of her family's reality show, which focused on Kourtney Kardashian refusing to leave baby daddy Scott Disick, sister Khloe has a message for her sibling.

At least we think she does. It's difficult to interpret her immature Twitter-speak. Over the course of several Tweets, Khloe made her feelings on Scott known. She wrote:

I dont allow peps 2 treat me like crapthen open my arms up 2 them so quickly. Kourt needs 2 think be4 she goes back in2 her comfort routine. I need 2 c a REAL change before I feel comfortable letting Mase and Kourt around him.

I'm there 4 Kourt by not letting scott continue 2 hurt her. Tough love it is. Im not going to 4give some1 6 times. Ur not me.

Words to think about, huh, Kourt? We mean that literally. One has to really read each syllable slowly.

Of course, any celebrity gossip follower - or human being with a pulse - knows that Khloe is simply Tweeting this nonsense to make headlines.

After all, episodes of Keeping Up with the Kardashians were filmed months ago. Since then, Scott has reportedly entered rehab and the family is mostly giving him another chance.

Looks like some1 has 2 get caught up on her own show's scripts b4 jumping 2 judgment. u hear us, klo E?

One burst on the scene in the late 1990s and became one of the most successful pop artists of all-time, dominating sales and headlines throughout the next decade.

The other made a name for herself in the late 2000s and, while her career is still in its early stages, looks poised for a decade comparable to that of her predecessor.

It's little surprise that Britney Spears and Lady Gaga are battling for Twitter supremacy, given their hit songs, controversial images and impact on popular culture.

Right now, Gaga leads at 5,713,469 followers. Britney has 5,695,008. Ashton Kutcher, who Spears just passed to temporarily claim the #1 spot, has 5,568,785.

Who would you rather ... follow on a social network?

Buoyed by a year and a half of smash hit singles, outrageous outfits and Lady Gaga hermaphrodite rumors, the "Bad Romance" singer leads on Facebook as well.

Spears, whose celebrity status has proved as bulletproof as it is long-lasting and enormous despite various mishaps, isn't doing too shabbily on that site, either.

Who will reign supreme as the Queen of All Social Media? At least until Justin Bieber decides he will become #1 and does so immediately? Only time will tell.

Courtney Love has issues.

Her daughter, with the late Kurt Cobain, Frances Bean, just turned 18, and let's just say Court didn't mark the occasion with a nice Hallmark card.

Frances Bean Cobain was publicly blistered by her rock star mom on Twitter in a string of vintage Courtney Love impassioned, nonsensical attacks.

She was scolded that "youve done a damned good job frances of destroying anything i could build" and warned that Love can and will "ruiinher."

"Why would you leave me and my life in tatters like this" reads another Love Tweet. "was that therapist right? Why do you want to ruin my life?"

But in typical Courtney fashion, she turns on a dime to regrets and seemingly bona dide compliments, Tweeting that she "aches" for her daughter.

Courtney Love and Frances Bean Cobain in pre-Twitter tirade times.

"I long for your kiss, your sweet head smell," she notes sweetly, with odd word choices. "I long for youm I ache for youm I die for you every day."

"im done, you arent dumb you know what youve done what youve sold i couldnt shelter you from them i suppose its my fault, im so sorry bean. x"

The two have engaged in a vicious, often public battle since late last year, when her own unstable conduct cost her legal guardianship of Frances.

Courtney's latest album, Nobody's Daughter, written while the star was in rehab, was released in April, just weeks after Frances released a record.

Maybe mom and daughter can mend fences and collaborate on a record together next? Some of these Tweets would make for tremendous lyrics.

After weeks of rumors over whether or not the incomparable Britney Spears would actually appear personally on the Glee episode in her honor this fall, the pop icon confirmed it this week via a Twitter pic of herself and her assistant on the set.

Now, two additional Britney Spears pictures have emerged featuring the singer and a cast member of the Fox series! Check them out below - Britney's posing here with Heather Morris, who plays Brittany, fittingly, and creator Ryan Murphy:

Britney Spears will appear on the September 28 episode of Glee.

Along with the photo, in which she reenacts her famous pose with Madonna, the pop icon wrote: "All my GLEEKERS in the crowd, Grab a partner take it down."

Britney has called the experience a ton of fun and we can't wait to see the tribute to her music. We've already seen Lea Michele in "Baby One More Time" garb.

We think we speak for millions when we say her Glee appearance and the second season premiere of the show - September 21 - can't arrive quickly enough!

What Britney song would you like to hear on Glee?

Never drink and drive. That message has been drilled into our heads for decades. Now there is a newer threat: Texting/Tweeting/Facebooking and driving.

New reports indicate that Dr. Frank Ryan, plastic surgeon to Heidi Montag and other celebrities, was Tweeting just before his fatal car accident on Monday.

Ex-girlfriend Charmaine Blake said the surgeon “lived up in Malibu on a tiny street and he was texting while driving and he accidentally went over the cliff.”

People also confirmed with the California Highway Patrol that Ryan was Tweeting, although the official cause of the accident has still not been determined.

Dr. Frank Ryan was purportedly Tweeting about his border collie, Jill, when he lost control of his car. His final tweet was a photo of Jill atop a sand dune.

The dog survived injuries incurred in the crash.

Dr. Frank Ryan passed away after a car crash yesterday.

While often associated with teenagers, Ryan's reported texting and driving proves how this has become a serious and underrated problem for adult drivers as well.

Public service announcements and advocacy campaigns dedicated to highlighting the dangers of texting, etc., while driving have become more prevalent of late.

In addition to advocacy by governments, consumer groups and wireless companies, some states have even passed laws barring it, even if they allow phone calls.

Hopefully those measures, coupled with incidents like this latest tragedy, can serve as a reminder for others to put down the phone. You can Tweet and text later.

Teri Hatcher has taken to Twitter to make a point about aging, natural beauty and plastic surgery.

The Desperate Housewives star posed in nothing but a towel this week and snapped a few close-ups of her face.

Tweeted the actress: Out of the bath getting ready for bed. Thought about all those damn critics of my face. Love it or hate it, my face that is, no surgery, no implants, no matter what "they" say. Decided I'd shoot myself in to reveal some truths about "beauty" and hope it makes you all easier on yourself.

Yes I am alone in my bathroom naked in a towel on behalf of women everywhere trying to make a point. Women YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL

Are you taking notes, Kardashian sisters? This is a much healthier message to send than constant talk about weight loss and bikini bodies...

** UPDATE: After posting these photos, Hatcher went on Entertainment Tonight and pretty much backtracked off her message. She said:

"It's not about Botox to me... I don't have any judgement about doing Botox... I've done Botox, I may do it again - I don't know. It's not the point.

"There has to be a different sort of baseline of how we're accepting beauty. I wanted women in America, not in Hollywood, to know that so much of the manipulation of going from the real Teri Hatcher to the Teri Hatcher that's on an advertising poster or an endorsement - that a lot of that happens through lighting."

So... the point is that celebrities undergo a lot of styling and make-up, combined with professional lighting, before going on TV or on commercials? Wow. Stop the presses!

The Hills vixen Kristin Cavallari is on a health kick:

She's trying to wash the stink of that show off her!

Just kidding. Partially. It would be too difficult to.

In all seriousness, according to Cavallari, she has embarked on a 10-day detox plan that consists of ingesting only variety of vegetables, protein shakes, fish, chicken and brown rice, all of which are delivered to her home daily.

"Such a beautiful morning. Started a 10-day detox today...protein shake for breakfast and it wasn't bad!" the 23-year-old reality star Tweeted last week.

Kristin Cavallari looks good to us. Hope she's not going to get too thin on us ... that's just no good. Celebs need to set the example that you can eat AND be hot.

But shortly into the detox (which began with three days of consuming just protein shakes), Cavallari admitted the cleanse wasn't as easy as expected.

"So its day 5 of my cleanse and its been pretty easy until today," she Tweeted longingly this past Sunday. "I can't stop thinking of all the food I want!"

Still, The Hills' resident bad girl insists that she isn't doing the cleanse solely to drop a few extra pounds. Because no one diets for that reason ... ever.

"Just wanna make 1 thing clear-the cleanse is not for weight loss. Its for health... and I feel great!" she Tweeted earlier this week. We're glad to hear it.

Earlier today, Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker announced his verdict regarding Prop 8, the controversial ballot proposition that was passed in November 2008 and banned gay marriage in California.

Judge Walked deemed the amendment a violation of the Constitution's equal protection clause under the 14th Amendment and overturned it. THG's reaction to this news?

Hooray! There's no practical argument against the harmless institution of gay marriage, and every reason to treat homosexuals the same as heterosexuals. As for the reaction in Hollywood, an outspoken community when it came to this issues? Here are a handful of responses:

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger: "This decision affirms the full legal protections and safeguards I believe everyone deserves."

Ellen DeGeneres: "Equality won!"

Portia de Rossi: "I am ecstatic that proposition 8 has been overturned in the state of California. This is an incredibly exciting and historical day and a big step towards equal rights for all."

Lance Bass: "Congrats on the overturning of Prop 8!!!!"

Pink: "It’s a good day!"

Adam Lambert: It's time to "throw glitter on this barn!

Ricky Martin: "YEAHHHHH!!!!! PROP8UNCONSTITUTIONAL MOVING FORWARD!!!!!!!!"

Kelly Osbourne: "so happy over the news on prop8 its about time!"

Kim Kardashian: "Prop 8 was struck down! This news is amazing!!!! Its about time! Congrats to everyone!"

Shanna Moakler: "Tonight we celebrate! EQUALITY and LOVE for all! This is so much bigger then [sic] marriage, it's about wisdom, compassion and knowing we CAN be heard, action DOES make a difference!"

Samantha Ronson: "Song Of The Day: Let's Get Married- Jagged Edge."

Olivia Munn: "Prop 8 Overturned!!! Equal rights for everyone! Nice to be out of the 1950s..."

Seth Myers: "Prop 8 was always my least favorite Prop. Favorite Prop: Joe."
