The three teens and adult male that were arrested for the burglaries of celebrities’ homes like Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Megan Fox and Orlando bloom have plead not guilty in their cases. The 19 year olds, Nicholas Prugo, Diana Tamayo and Courtney Leigh Ames and 27 year old Roy Lopez Jr. were arrested and charged in October for the crimes in California. They were charged with felony burglary and have been said to have stolen millions of dollars in jewelry, cash, clothes and electronics. They got away with the first burglaries, but were caught on tape at Lindsay Lohan’s home and Megan Fox’s home. The burglaries took place between December 2008 and October 2009.

All of the burglaries took place while the celebrities weren’t home. The burglars made sure that the celebrities would be out for a while by checking out when they would be attending events or going out to parties and clubs. According to a Las Vegas search warrant that was released, Prugo confessed to the burglary and blabbed about the other suspects who were involved. He also blamed a Las Vegas woman for the burglaries. There is a preliminary trial date set to begin in January 2010. The fifth suspect, Alexis Neiers pleaded guilty to one of the burglary charges a month ago. The burglars could all face up to six years in prison if they are convicted.

The Kardashian sisters, Khloe, Kim and Kourtney, have come up with a new line of jewelry and accessories called Virgins Saints and Angels, also known as SVA. The line features designs from the Armenian heritage, so many of the designs that have been compiled were accumulated from the cultures surrounding the country and its origin. The heritage is very important to the three sisters, so they’ve teamed up to bring out the line, which will be available for sale in the spring of 2010. Within the collection, you will find rings, earrings and necklaces, ranging between $50 and $600. Some of the designs featured in the Virgin Saints & Angels collection include goddesses, angels, Hamsas, gods, gypsies, hearts and the San Benito, the signature of their jewelry line. The pieces can be purchased in either 18k gold or sterling silver. They have a trendy, yet timeless look.

Just like the girls have done time and time again, they have implemented their own personal style to appeal to the American consumers. As you may already know, they have a boutique chain called D-A-S-H, which has been doing favorbly well; it was even featured on Miami.com as “boutique of the week”. Kim has also been mixing perfumes and has hired a local designer to help with the perfect bottle design for the perfume she will concoct. If you like the styles the three Kardashian sisters have, you’ll find that there are a lot of pieces to choose from. Have your pick of Armenian crown rings with green stones, rustic three tiered crowns, Armenian infinity earrings, double points chained Magdalena or Double Points Cuff.

The couple, Brangelina (Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie), have a recent deal with the Asprey based in London. They have a silver and gold, limited edition collection called Protector. It features a serpent, which Angelina Jolie believes is the protector of her family (thus the name of the collection = protector). She believes in this so much that she wore a reptile-like ring while she was pregnant with one of her children. A lot of the designs of the rings the two have in the collection are snake-like. The rings are starting off at $525 and will be available to buy for the holidays (perfect timing). All of the money made from this collection will go to the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict, which is an organization that helps to raise awareness and money in order to teach children about war. Some of the items that are in the Brangelina collection include children’s spoons, tooth boxes, egg cups and picture frames.

Another popular celebrity that is starting a jewelry collection is Jane Seymour from Dancing with the Stars and Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman. Her Open Heart line of jewelry has been out since spring of 2009. The line is exclusively sold at Kay Jewelers. Jane’s collection has proven to be her best medicine — she’s been completely involved in the jewelry line. The inspiration of Open Heart came from a nasty divorce she went through. Drawing open hearts has allowed her to express herself. She says that if your heart is open, love will always find its way in.

The 7th person to be arrested in the Hollywood Hills celebrity jewelry burglaries has turned himself in. Jonathan Ajar, 27, also known as Johnny Dangerous, turned himself in at the Los Angeles Police Department’s Hollywood Station on Wednesday, around 2:30 pm. He turned himself in after a warrant was issued for charges like possession of drugs, possession of firearms and ammunition by a felon, receiving stolen property and possession of body armor. It is also suspected that he’s been selling the stolen property from the celebrity burglaries. He’s already served five years in prison for trafficking drugs. The authorities did a search of his apartment on Oct. 22, which led them to finding various weapons, cocaine and body armor. One of the handguns found belonged to actor Brian Austin Green. Also found were electronics, drugs, perfume, high-end make-up, Louis Vuitton and Chanel purses.

The celebrities that have been hit by the bunch include Orlando Bloom, Paris Hilton, Ashley Tisdale, Megan Fox, Rachel Bilson, Brian Austin Green and Lindsay Lohan. The girl, Rachel Lee, who was arrested in Las Vegas may get off the hook — the charges have been declined to be filed against her and the case is still pending for her. Inside of her home, there were pictures of Paris Hilton and $20,000 in cash. The group managed to pull off 10 burglaries between October 2008 to September 2009. Millions of dollars worth of items and cash were taken; some of which were sold. All of the suspects had aspirations of working in the entertainment field, but weren’t properly connected and didn’t have the skills. No one is connected to the victimized celebrities.

Finally, after months and months of searching, the thieves that have been stealing jewelry from celebrities have been caught. Funny enough, you would never guess who they are. There are five total criminals in this case — all of which are teenage girls. The group was dubbed the Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch. They almost got away with stealing loads of jewelry and money from the victimized celebrities. Found in the raid of the teens’ homes were 7 containers of  drugs like mushroom caps and stems, various bottles of meds (like Clonazepem, Lexapro and Oxycodone). Also found were two pistols, a shotgun and items taken from the celebrities’ homes. Also arrested with the Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch is a man who is said to be the mastermind behind everything. He is said to have come up with the technology-aided schemes to rob stars like Orlando Bloom, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. They took dozens of pieces made with gold and diamonds. They also took high heels, designer bags, bottle of perfume and laptops as well.

The five teens and man were arrested two weeks ago for stealing millions of dollars in jewelry, cash and art. They used the internet to learn the floorplans of the estates, when the celebrities would be out partying and what jewelry they’d be wearing. After months of robbing the rich, the thieves were finally caught thanks to a security camera that was installed in reality star Audrina Patridge’s home. The cam caught them all breaking in and stealing. The thieves are Rachel Lee (18 year old, arrested in Las Vegas), Courtney Ames and Alexis Neiers (18), Diana Tamayo (19) and Roy Lopez (27); all of which were arrested in L.A.

Presented by GBK Productions was “A Luxury Bazaar for the Senses” event, which took place at a private estate in Beverly Hills. This is a lifestyle gift lounge that attracted lots of Hollywood stars, like Randy Jackson, Sugar Ray (boxing champ), Jalen Rose (NBA/ESPN) and a few other notables. This event was sponsored by Roar Clothing, which is known for promoting uniqueness and individuality through their fashion labels and products.

Celebrities were given the opportunity to showcase and present their favorite charity for a local billboard campaign that was for educating the masses about a cause that was worthwhile. Randy Jackson came to promote his Randy Jackson Eyewear and Hunter Steven was there with her handmade Hunter Fashion Hair Clips; the proceeds of the clips are given to organizations that help to promote, spiritual, mental and physical development for young girls. Okobo was also there presenting one-of-a-kind footwear that were designed to deliver a message of hope and change.

On the jewelry end, Zen Jewels by Jen, was presented on site and was receiving lots of attention. Energy consultations were being given to the celebrities, as well as spiritual gemstone jewelry that were given as a gift to help connect the celebrities with their higher self. Also presenting gifting jewelry and handcrafted South American artisanship with contemporary designs, was Audra & Dalilah. The company is called Three and was offering fashionably functional bags and accessories for girls and women. They also offered professional men’s gear, called “Big Wave”. Coverings for Ipods and cell phones, called Mocks, were also available.

Yet another star’s jewelry has been stolen. According to the media, Kourtney’s home was burglarized and over $100,000 worth of jewelry was taken. Kourtney Kardashian is one of the stars on E!’s reality shows, called “Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami”. The star has also been getting a lot of media attention about her recent pregnancy news. Her sister, Khloe, has also been sharing the spotlight with her marriage to L.A. Lakers’ Lamar Odom.

There have been lots of burglaries going on in California, mostly targeting celebrities. Others who were robbed include Lindsay Lohan and Audrina Partridge. Even Orlando Bloom was a victim of jewelry theft earlier this year. It seems that either these stars are letting their guards down in the security area of their lives or these thieves are getting better. There’s also a possibility that someone close, such as a family or friend, could have stolen the jewelry or been involved in the thieving of the items. These celebrities should take heed to what’s going on and spruce up the security in their homes.

Buy more alarms or a better alarm system. With all of the money these celebrities have, you’d think they would have tight security for their property and belongings. Thinking this way only makes one believe that it had to be an inside job. Having hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of jewelry wouldn’t make anyone laid back about security, if anything they would want to protect their precious jewels the best way possible. Hopefully this will be somewhat the end to these celebrity home burglaries. Or even better, the thieves get caught.

Lady Gaga and Kanye West were scheduled to begin touring together on the “Fame Kills” tour. But rumors have been confirmed that Kanye West has decided to “take a break,” as Lady Gaga says. If you take a look on her Twitter page, you’ll see that she wrote “Still leaving on solo TOUR this nov.,” so she will indeed be performing. Supposedly, Kanye had to take a break, but another source says that the two were having creative differences. I can just about imagine how this went. Kanye is a very outspoken and creative individual and so seems Lady Gaga. The two celebrities have two completely different styles and I’m not sure how the two came to tour together in the first place. She is very exotic and strange and Kanye likes to do things BIG, hip hop BIG.

Other than the big split, some are claiming that her new single, which was leaked, is like a backplay of Poker Face and doesn’t sound to well (nice way of putting it). Lady Gaga was also seen on Saturday Night Live over the weekend — quite funny if you ask me. Not sure if anyone else watched it, but if so — please leave a comment and your rating on the performance. If you missed it — you missed a strange performance with Lady Gaga and a Madonna impersonator. The two came out to sing a song and began to fight. Madonna kept trying to pull off her wig and the two threw snarky comments back and forth. Afterward, Lady Gaga performed foreal — singing “Paparazzi”.

We all enjoyed “Meet the Parents” and Meet the Fockers”; now, we’re about to enjoy their descendant, “Little Fockers”. The name alone explains what this movie will be about (babies!). According to a few sources, the movie will have a new star on board — Jessica Alba. Jessica Alba was seen in Chicago on Sunday getting ready to film the third Fockers movie. The 28-year-old actress will be playing an attractive pharmaceutical representative who wreaks havoc on the male characters in the movie caused by her looks. While in Chicago on Sunday, she was seen eating dinner with a few of her associates at the River North’s Hub 51.

“Little Fockers” is to be the first major movie filmed in Chicago since the remake of “Nightmare on Elm Street”, which was created in Elk Grove Village and Arlington Heights between May and July. In “Little Fockers” you will see familiar faces like Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro. According to imdb.com, the movie is planned to hit theaters next summer, July 30, 2010. Together, “Meet the Parents” and “Meet the Fockers” grossed $279 million in the U.S. Likely “Little Fockers” will be a big hit since the first two were hilarious. I can’t wait to see the storyline for this movie. If you want to know more about who will be in the movie, you can go to imdb.com to see a list of characters.

I seen Jessica Alba has gained a little weight, but I think it makes her look healthy (and she still has great taste in jewelry though). Skinny is out and thick is in (at least in my book). Oh, and congrats on the new baby Jess!
