    • Janet Jackson, billionaire. (Vittorio Zunino Celotto/Getty Images)Michael Jackson may be one of the most successful dead celebrities, but his sister Janet (who, of course, is alive and well) is doing pretty well herself. The 47-year-old is officially a billionaire.

      According to Variety, Jackson, who is one of the best-selling artists of all time, has earned $458 million thanks to her successful concert tours, $304 million from acting roles in films like "For Colored Girls" and "The Nutty Professor," $260 million in album sales, and more than $81 million from tour sponsorships and licensing fees.

      And the "Control" songstress isn't the only billionaire in her household. Jackson secretly married retail tycoon Wissam Al Mana, who's made his fortune investing in the Middle East.

      As for fellow celeb billionaires, Jackson joins a club with members including Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg, J.K. Rowling, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, whose "Seinfeld" money helped … but whose main fortune came from her dad, billionaire Gerard Louis-Dreyfus, chairman of the Louis

    • Blogger Jes Baker is blasting popular clothing brand Abercrombie & Fitch for trying to define beauty with a number. Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries has recently come under major fire for comments he made to Salon.com back in 2006. He talked about the store's refusal to sell anything bigger than a size large and only wanting the "All-American kid with a great attitude and a lot of friends" to represent the brand.

      "Omg! Insider" sat down with Baker, who is fighting back with Abercrombie ads of her own, where she poses topless with a male model and reinterprets the A&F letters to stand for a message she truly believes in, "Attractive & Fat."

      "I don't really care what Abercrombie really truly thinks about this, to be honest with you. I don't have the energy to dislike Mike Jeffries," she said during the interview. "There's so much negativity in the world, it doesn't need to be perpetuated."

      Baker also included an open letter to Jeffries on her website, the Militant Baker, criticizing the company for its narrow view of what beauty really is and promoting the idea that every size is beautiful.

      "The only thing you've done through your comments (about thin being beautiful and offering XL and XXL in your stores for men) is reinforce the unoriginal concept that fat women are social failures, value-less, and undesirable," Baker wrote. "Well, actually, that's not all you have done. You have also created an incredible opportunity for social change."

      Check out this vid to see what else the blogger has to say about the brand, and for more from her interview, tune in to "omg! Insider" on television tonight.

    • Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert (Getty Images)Celebrities can tweet condolences all they want, but Blake Shelton is putting his money (and his guitar) where his mouth is when it comes to those affected by the Oklahoma tornado.

      "The Voice" judge opened Tuesday night's show by performing an acoustic version of "Over You" alongside wife Miranda Lambert while donation information for The Red Cross was presented on screen. The couple originally co-wrote the song in honor of Blake’s older brother, who passed away when he was a teenager.

      Following Shelton's touching tribute, the Oklahoma native revealed he and NBC have started to organize a benefit concert for the victims of the tornado that killed at least 24 people, nine being children.

      "We'll know more about it in the next 24 hours," Shelton told Billboard. "I'm hoping it will raise a lot of money. Obviously, it will be televised and will happen really quickly."

      Shelton grew up about 75 miles south of where the tornado struck in Moore, Oklahoma, on May 20.

    • Helen Mirren is royally awesome.

      When the 67-year-old actress learned that a young cancer patient's dying wish ― to have tea with Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace ― couldn't be granted due to the monarch's busy schedule, the Oscar winner happily stepped in.

      Currently reprising her Oscar-winning role as the Queen of England for the play "The Audience" on London's West End, Mirren invited 10-year-old Oliver Burton, who has Down syndrome and has been battling cancer for much of his life, to the Gielgud Theatre to take in a performance of her show and then visit backstage for a tea party.

    • Isabella Cruise (Instagram)Isabella Cruise continues to express herself through her hairstyles ― and, from the looks of things, she seems to have entered a punk phase.

      The 20-year-old daughter of Tom Cruise and his ex-wife Nicole Kidman debuted a new 'do on Instagram this week. Now a blonde, her locks have been buzzed into a supershort crop along the back and sides with longer pieces in the front styled into a fauxhawk ― a look we've seen recently on both Charlize Theron and Miley Cyrus.

      In other words, she's definitely not looking to take after her mom's sexy, feminine style.

      The aspiring artist, who has been abroad in Europe, received many compliments from her followers for what one described as a "rad" new look, replying to them, "Awww thanks y'all." She also received praise for her style as she wore a sleeveless button-down shirt with funky collar tips in the pic.

    • Heidi Klum shares adorable childhood photo

      As one of the world’s most famous supermodel-turned-TV host-and-entrepreneurs, Heidi Klum is practically synonymous with fashion and beauty. But just in case anyone out there needed proof that she was destined for this line of work, we now have a photo of Klum at 12 years old – and yup, she was adorable.

      “OMG - found another fun photo blast from the past! 12 years old!” Klum tweeted to her followers on Tuesday, along with the photo of her much younger self with short bangs, stick-straight hair, and her instantly recognizable nose, eyes, and mouth. Though, she looks much more casual than the Klum we know and love today – the one that’s known for super-tight cocktail dresses, gold sequins, and lavish Halloween parties.

      Now 39 years old, this photo dates back to around 1985 and was probably taken in Klum's native country Germany, where she lived as a child. Seven years later, she enrolled in a German modeling contest called “Model 92” and won. Thus began her career in modeling, until she got her big break in North America with a cover of Sports Illustrated and a runway spot for Victoria’s Secret in the late 1990s.

      Today, Klum is a model as well as a shoe, clothing, and fragrance designer, TV host and producer (known for the smash hit reality series “Project Runway” and most recently as a judge on “America’s Got Talent”), a philanthropist, and sometimes an actress and painter as well. Who knew that 12-year-old

    • That One Time Bret Michaels and Charlie Sheen Destroyed a Hotel Room

      Reality rocker Bret Michaels is looking back and remembering that grand time when he and Charlie Sheen were partying in the '90s and destroying hotel rooms. Ah, those were the days, right?

      "One thing I did help Charlie with … he was trying to destroy a hotel room in Orlando," Michaels told Huff Post Live. "He was having a little trouble with one of the big vases … I lifted this Ming vase, or whatever the hell it was. It was huge. He was struggling a little bit with it. So we smashed it … You can't throw it on the carpet, that's pointless. We went over to a much harder surface, a nice Travertine Tile and smashed it down. It shattered. It was great. We split the bill on that, by the way. We were even Steven."

      But that wasn't the only thing the duo smashed. The "Poison" singer also revealed he broke his guitar, and explained why it's such a relief to go around trashing things.

      "It just feels good sometimes to destroy something provided you pay for it," he confessed. "I know it's my guitar, I know it's my own thing."

      Check out the video to find out what else the rock star had to say about their destructive escapades.

    • Before ... (IDavid Becker/WireImage)and after. (Instagram)Pauly D has got a new 'do.

      Affable "Jersey Shore" star Paul "DJ Pauly D" DelVecchio has traded his trademark big coif for sleek 1920's-style tresses.

      The 32-year-old shared a pic of the look on Instagram Monday with the caption, "#TheGreatDJGatsby!!!"

      The DJ mention obviously references Pauly's primary gig since the "Jersey Shore" gang's party on MTV officially came to an end last December.

      As a result of the reality show, Pauly landed his own docu-series on MTV last year that chronicled his adventures as a DJ, was hired to open for Britney Spears on her tour, and became a regular entertainer at Las Vegas clubs.

      Yeah, buddy! This guy has come a long way.

      But don't expect the hairstyle change to be permanent. He admitted in a 2011 interview that his signature locks have been around longer than it's been legal for Snooki to buy an alcoholic drink.

      "I've had it for a long time; it was just never this long or this crazy" he explained to the Daily Beast. "I used to work at a car dealership

      We’ve always known that Jesse James likes the “tough guy” look, and now he has a battle wound to make it all the more authentic.

      James, 44, shocked his Instagram followers on Tuesday when he uploaded a picture of his right hand — except it was missing the tip of its pinky finger. He captioned the photo: “OOOpps, Bad day at the office. Headed 2 Surgery in a few.”

      Shortly after, James posted another photo that’s even worse, showing off what used to be his pinky fingernail, along with the caption: “Doesn't look like this little dude's gonna make it, Nice know'n you little buddy.”

      Finally, to cap off the ordeal, James posted one final photo as he headed into surgery, writing “Heading 2 Surgery #jessejames #westcoastchoppers #StillMetal” underneath the photo of himself screaming into the camera, making devil horns with his injured hand.

      Warning: The photos are very, very graphic, but if you think you can stomach them, you can view the pictures here, here, and here.

      James explained the mishap to TMZ as he waited at the University Medical Center Brackenridge in
