Antoine Dodson Arrested in Alabama on Drug Charges

Christina Aguilera #failed a lot over the past year or so.

From her divorce, to the underwhelming responses to her album Bionic and her movie “Burlesque” (both released last year), flubbing the national anthem during this year’s Super Bowl, tripping on stage at the Grammys, and the countless headlines that left people thinking “WTF are you doing Christina?!” 2011 (and part of 2010) just hasn’t been very friendly to her.

But now that she has scored a judging gig on NBC’s new talent competition show ‘The Voice,’ the Pop star is glad things are turning around. “The last year has probably, with the divorce and considering everything that’s gone on, has humbled me a little bit,” she says with a laugh.

Rihanna and Usher allegedly hooked up during Coachella, according to OK! magazine. The tabloid, which just last month (wrongly) claimed Rihanna was at “war” with Amanda Seyfried over Ryan Phillippe, now wants everyone to believe that she and Usher “were making beautiful music together – and we’re not talking about singing!”

“They were so flirty,” says a so-called “insider,” who tells OK! the pair left an April 16 party at the festival holding hands. “According to witnesses, Leonardo DiCaprio was also chatting up RiRi, but at the end of the night, she went home with Usher,” reports OK!, which quotes an “insider” as saying, “They’re having fun and hooking up.”

No, they’re not. A source close to Rihanna tells Gossip Cop this newest hookup rumor is just as bogus as previous ones.
