After successful beauty, fashion, fragrance, and diet pill endorsements, Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe Kardashian are taking it one step further: their very own credit card! The girls are lending their faces to a special edition Kardashian Kard MasterCard which will be available Nov. 10.
This sounds like a match made in heaven considering the girls are well known for their wild shopping trips.
And best of all, when you whip it out (your card, that is), you've got Kim K's chest staring you and your cashier in the face!

Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller have been married only two and a half years and they've already had more drama than ten marriages combined!
Let's take a look at their rocky relationship from the very beginning:
May 30, 2008 - Charlie Sheen marries Brooke Mueller at a private estate in Los Angeles.
June 3, 2008 - The happy couple honeymoons in Costa Rica looking very much in love.
August 26, 2008 - Mueller announces her pregnancy.
March 14, 2009 - Mueller gives birth to twins Bob and Max.
December 25, 2009 - In Aspen, Colorado, Charlie Sheen is arrested on charges of domestic violence, including second-degree assault and menacing, against wife Brooke Mueller. She claims he put a knife to her throat and threatened her life, but he denies it, claiming Mueller had been drinking before calling 911. Sheen was released from jail after posting $8,500 bond. The couple has been living apart ever since... but lawyers Yale Galanter and Richard Cummins say they still hope to reconcile.
February 5, 2010 - Sheen's stolen Mercedes is found at the bottom of a cliff just off Mulholland Drive...
February 8, 2010 - Sheen is formally charged with felony menacing, and third-degree assault and criminal mischief, both misdemeanors.
February 9, 2010 - Mueller checks into The Canyon rehab facility in Malibu for substance abuse problems.
February 22, 2010 - Mueller leaves The Canyon after a staff member leaked her admissions documents to various media outlets. She begins receiving ongoing treatment at home.
February 24, 2010 - Sheen takes a break from Two and a Half Men and enters rehab (for a fourth time) to be treated for alcohol/cocaine abuse. The actor's representative Stan Rosenfield says it's a "preventative measure."
March 2010 - Sheen leaves rehab and gets back to work on his hit CBS sitcom.
May 18, 2010 - Sheen signs on for another two years on the show with a reported $1.88 million per episode.
June 15, 2010 - Mueller is rumored to have entered rehab again, but her rep Elliot Mintz says she's actually just "receiving professional help in the area of stress management."
The same day, another of Sheen's Mercedes was found pushed over a cliff on Mulholland Drive... similar to what happened on February 5, 2010.
August 2, 2010 - As part of a plea bargain, Sheen pleads guilty to misdemeanor assault and all other charges are dismissed. He's sentenced to 30 days in a rehabilitation center, 3 months probation, and 36 hours of anger management.
October 26, 2010 - Sheen is reportedly found drunk and naked in The Plaza Hotel, with 22-year-old hooker Capri Anderson, by NYPD. Rep Stan Rosenfield claims Sheen had "an adverse allergic reaction to some medication and was taken to the hospital."
But the 45-year-old actor isn't letting this latest disaster affect his career - we snapped Charlie Sheen arriving on the She Wants Me set in LA this morning and even though he said, "I can't talk; I've got no voice," he seemed to be in good spirits.
Sheen's rep has always maintained in the past that the couple "did not sign divorce papers," adding: "The only thing they signed was an agreement regarding terms if they ever decide to divorce. No more; no less."
But is this the final straw for the couple? Or will they keep trying to work it out for the sake of their children?

Well, just for the day!
This morning Kim and Kourtney Kardashian were snapped out and about in NYC, and surprisingly, the girls were off doing their separate things. Kim went shopping at 25 Park, and Kourt grabbed coffee with baby daddy Scott Disick. See, the sisters aren't joined at the hip ALL the time!

Leave it to John Mayer to use humor, and mention Justin Bieber, while asking people to donate money for $10 mosquito nets that could save Third World kids from contracting Malaria.
In the Public Service Announcement for Malaria No More, the singer says:
“Almost a million people die every year from malaria. And of that number 85% die under the age of Justin Bieber.â€Â
The PSA is part of the campaign, Comedy Fights Malaria, which will also include future videos from Jeremy Piven, Ted Danson and Orlando Bloom.

Whether or not you're a Taylor Swift fan, this is great news for the music industry because it means people are actually going out and buying CDs again!
Taylor Swift - seen above at the unveiling of her wax figure in NYC on Wednesday - just released her third album Speak Now and Billboard predicts it'll sell between 800,000-900,000 copies in the first week.
Scott Borchetta, president and CEO of Swift's label Big Machine Label Group, says that the week's sales are already trending "way north" of 700,000. This means the album will likely beat Eminem's Recovery, which moved 741,000 in its first week.
Let's hear it for 20-year-old Taylor Swift! I guess writing sad songs about your ex-boyfriends really pays off.
The UK sensation never fails to make a splash with her outfits! Katie Price - doing her best "Sexy Librarian" look - met with fans and signed copies of her new autobiography You Only Live Once in London today. Work it, girl! I dunno if this woman really wrote that book all by herself, but you've gotta admit... Katie Price is fierce and we love her for it!
