Brian Wilson's singer daughter Carnie has blasted a tabloid for claiming she plans to undergo another gastric bypass operation after gaining 79 pounds. The 39-year-old, who underwent a gastric bypass in 2000 after she was told she was morbidly obese, has hit out at the National Enquirer for publishing what she claims is an erroneous report about her ongoing weight issues.

Brian Wilson's singer daughter Carnie is battling with her weight again, eight years after she underwent a gastric bypass operation. The 39-year-old was told she'd die if she didn't have the 2000 surgery - to help her shed weight - but she has started piling on the pounds again, blaming a slow metabolism and the birth of her two-and-a-half-year-old daughter Lola for her latest weight woes.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - The winner of Country Music Television's ''Gone Country'' reality show was born in Madrid, Spain, and raised in Miami, but these days Julio Iglesias Jr. is spending a lot of time in Nashville.

R&B star Bobby Brown has been left with another career hangover after getting drunk and farting in Carnie Wilson's face on his latest reality TV show. The fallen "My Prerogative" singer is competing to record the best country album, alongside the likes of Wilson and rocker Dee Snider, on new show Gone Country.

"Gone Country," a show in which mostly washed-up singers are resurrected as country stars, is the first show, to my knowledge, on CMT that I've watched in its entirety. I wouldn't call myself a country fan by any means, and at first glance this didn't seem like an appealing show at all. That was until I saw the lineup of goof balls that they had enlisted:

"I literally used to lie in the bathtub and play with it." Singer Carnie Wilson talks about the excess skin she had after she underwent gastric bypass surgery in 1999.

"We spend every Christmas in Maine and just hope and pray for snow." Actress Kelly Preston on the Travolta family's Christmas plans.

Bobby Brown is convinced he'll win country talent show Gone Country, and is already planning to ditch soul music for a new career. The star will join Carnie Wilson and Julio Iglesias Jr. when the show airs in January. And host John Rich believes Brown has an edge over his rivals.

Singer Carnie Wilson is struggling with her weight again after piling on the pounds following the birth of her baby daughter. The Wilson Phillips star underwent gastric bypass surgery in 1999 when she weighed an estimated 300 pounds - but insists that wasn't the end of her weight worries.

Pregnant actress Milla Jovovich has developed an odd craving for bone marrow. She says she can't help herself and has to immediately visit her local butcher when the urge takes hold.
