A 27-year-old man accused of stalking Ivanka Trump has been arrested in Reno, Nev.

Police say Justin Massler was arrested Tuesday on a New York warrant alleging he used the Internet to stalk the daughter of Donald and Ivana Trump.

Twenty-eight-year-old Ivanka Trump is the co-host of “Celebrity Apprentice” and a vice president at her father’s real estate company, the Reno Gazette-Journal reported.

Massler described himself in a blog posting as “a celebrity stalker who is obsessed with Ivanka Trump.”

Massler had been living on the East Coast and visiting his mother in Reno. His mother, Randee Massler, says he has only written about Trump on the Internet and hasn’t come close to her.

He remains held in the Washoe County Jail in Reno.

“All business is personal,” said the lawsuit, filed Wednesday in a Manhattan state court.

Lady Gaga’s spokesman, Dave Tomberlin, didn’t immediately respond to an e-mail sent Thursday by The Associated Press.

Dakota Fanning: I’m ready to have people see me in a different way’

By Parade   |  Gossip  |  March 17, 2010

Dakota Fanning takes one more step toward proving she’s ready for more mature roles in The Runaways. The 16-year-old actress goes for sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll as Cherie Currie, who teamed up with Joan Jett to make their ’70s all-girl band an international sensation.

Fanning smokes, gets high and locks lips with co-star Kristen Stewart, not to mention belts out some classic hits on the big screen. Parade.com’s Jeanne Wolf found out why Fanning couldn’t wait to go to some dark places.

What’s wrong with an image change?
“I can be sweet little Dakota Fanning, and then I can be totally different in the movies. A big reason I wanted to do The Runaways was to do something unlike anything that I’ve done before. I’m ready to have people see me in a different way than like the kid in I Am Sam or War of the Worlds. You have to kind of grow up. Everyone has to do it. I am doing it through films, which may be more difficult, but it’s what I love to do.” Read the full story

American Idol: No “Satisfaction” on Stones night?

By Leslie Gray Streeter   |  American Idol, Gossip, Music, Pop Shop, TV  |  March 17, 2010

It was Rolling Stones night, but for some reason I couldn’t get Barry Manilow’s “Ready To Take A Chance Again” out of my head – “It’s all very nice, but not very good.”

Even though Kara kept referring to the Stones in the past tense, like they were dead people from olde Vaudeville times, Mick and the boys are still incredibly energetic performers, even with the health problems and addictions and shenanigans that should have killed them 40 years ago (and, perhaps, did – you can still not convince me that Keith Richards isn’t pulled together by fairie dust, bionics, and the engineers that do the figures at the Hall of Presidents at Disney).
