Tommy Lee Spinning To The Beats
You can add DJ to Tommy Lee's resume.
The former Motley Crew drummer and Pamela Anderson's ex-hubby was seen by The Showbuzz.com last night at Pacha, an Ibiza- themed club in New York City.
The funky venue featured an event called "The Future Of The Mix," which was sponsored by Pioneer PRO DJ to showcase the newest version of professional DVD turntables.
Tommy Lee participated in a Q&A along with well-known DJs such as DJ Aero, BT, SV2 Sandra Collins, Vello Virkhaus and Roonie G. He was scheduled to spin later on in the evening when the club opened up to the general public.
The rocker, who recently had a scuffle with Kid Rock at the MTV Video Music Awards, answered a few questions about the importance of audio and visuals in the music industry.

A member of the audience asked Tommy Lee if he mixes in his own home videos while he's spinning. The whole crowd roared in uncomfortable laughter and astonishment- recalling the sex tape that was leaked to the public of him and his ex Pam.
Several questions arose about copyright issues involving the sampling of music videos while spinning on the turntables, which were answered mostly by DJ Roonie.
When The ShowBuzz asked Lee to pose for a picture, he responded with a rather unusual pose (shown above). He's either imitating a frightened animal - or our equally frightened photographer.

Shepherd, Goldberg Fight Over J.Lo Pregnancy
Jennifer Lopez's pregnancy has sparked the most heated argument on "The View" since Rosie O'Donnell and Elisabeth Hasselbeck went at it.
The debate was over how much personal information celebrities owe their fans.
It took Lopez weeks to confirm her pregnancy at a concert in Miami. Whoopi Goldberg says it was Lopez's right to keep the news a secret for so long and couldn't understand why anyone cared.
Sherri Shepherd said she and other fans care because they have fun keeping track of the personal lives of their favorite celebrities.
The argument between Shepherd and Goldberg got so loud and lasted so long, Joy Behar eventually said, "Leave her alone! That's enough on Miss Sherri."
Goldberg and Shepherd patched things up by hugging before the show went to commercial.

Joey Fatone Puts In His Two CentsPhotos: A Year Of Lohan
Joey Fatone, the host of NBC's "The Singing Bee" and a former 'N Sync member, dished some celebrity details in his interview with Parade magazine when he commented on his former band mate Lance Bass' new tell-all book "Out Of Sync."
"I was one of the first to find out that Lance was gay when I saw him with another guy," Fattone told Parade magazine. "Lance wrote something like, 'Joey knew right then and there I was gay, but he really didn't care one way or the other.' I think I said to him, 'I still love you like a brother.' Joey takes a beat before adding, "But I also said, 'If your mother finds out, she's going to kill you.' "
Fatone also commented on Bass' hard feelings toward the break-up of the band and Justin Timberlake's desire to pursue a solo career.

"Lance felt betrayed by Justin," he says, "but it didn't upset me. We were supposed to get back together and record, but since Justin was so successful with his own tour, he wanted to stay out on the road. He didn't have to split money and fame five different ways. It was just going to one person. I would probably do the same thing."

MSNBC And Rosie A No-No, Clinton Made O'Donnell Cry
It looks like Rosie O'Donnell and MSNBC isn't a match made in heaven after all.
The former "The View" host is not likely to host her own show on the cable news station after negotiations broke down, O'Donnell wrote on her blog Wednesday night.
The show would have been placed in the 9 p.m. timeslot, after "Countdown with Keith Olbermann."
"We were close to a deal, almost done," O'Donnell wrote. "I let it slip in Miami, causing panic on the studio end."
Furthermore, O'Donnell told an audience during stand-up Tuesday night that Bill Clinton put her to tears after apologizing first-hand for making a mockery of the Oval Office with his Monica Lewinsky sex scandal.
Page Six of the New York Post reported Thursday that the longtime comedic figure told spectators at the New York Comedy Festival how the former president sent her a card after she verbally slammed him during a performance at the Mohegan Sun Casino Hotel fives years ago.
"He disgusts me," O'Donnell recalled saying at the casino show, The Post reported. "And I know I'm not supposed to say this because I'm a good Democrat, but I didn't want to (talk) to him because he lied to me when he said, 'I did not have sexual relations with that woman.' "
When O'Donnell telephoned the number that was listed in the card, and the president picked up, O'Donnell's "knees got weak."
"I was at your show the other night, and I was sorry that you didn't come over and say hello to me," O'Donnell says Clinton told her on the phone, according to The Post. "And I know that you're still harboring some hard feelings."
After O'Donnell explained to him how so many men in her life had hurt her, Clinton allegedly responded, "'I'm sorry for all the men who ever hurt you, I'm sorry that I hurt you. Everything you've said to me, I've said to myself, and I hope one day you can forgive me, and I hope I can forgive me.'"
At that moment, O'Donnell began "hysterical crying," she told the audience.
