Rapper/singer M.I.A. and her middle finger made their Super Bowl debut yesterday, and now the artist is looking at a huge fine for her indecent gesture at the end of the performance. TMZ reports that NBC isn’t even worried about the NFL taking the heat, because after CBS had that whole Janet Jackson nip slip fiasco years ago, they’re going straight to the entertainers.

But the NFL was smart, given the history of performers who wanted to do something shocking to get attention during the biggest TV event of the year.  So we’re told … M.I.A. signed a contract with the NFL for the halftime performance, and in that contract M.I.A. agreed to indemnify the NFL for any money it might be forced to pay if the FCC comes down on the Peacock Network.

Remember, CBS was hit with a $550,000 FCC fine after Janet Jackson’s famous wardrobe malfunction, but that fine was thrown out by a federal appeals court.

Sources tell us … aside from the fact that the NFL doesn’t want to pay a huge fine, the organization wants to send a message to performers — don’t you dare screw with us.

We don’t know if the NFL got a similar indemnity clause from Madonna.

One of the hot stars of the “Twilight” flicks is about to be a daddy!

FIND OUT WHO!

Amber Portwood, who stars in MTV’s ‘Teen Mom’ was sentenced to five years in prison today. The 21-year-old mom will avoid doing a lot of the prison time by accepting to enter a drug program.

Portwood was shackled at the ankles and wrists today as she appeared in Madison County Court in Anderson, Indiana.

Under a plea deal, the reality TV star plead guilty to one count of Class D felony possession of a controlled substance, and one count of parole probation violation. If she succeeds in completing the terms of the drug court program, the case against her will be dismissed. If she fails, the judge told Portwood she would be send to prison to serve the five years he ordered.

‘I know it is going to be hard but I have a lot to lose – I have a daughter,’ Portwood quietly told Judge Happe.

‘All I can do is try, I have a lot of people behind me.’

Asked what she hoped to get out of the plea deal, Portwood said: ‘I want to possibly get my family back.

‘I have been doing pills for eight years, since I was 13, and since then I have never been drug free until I detoxed.

‘I think about my daughter all the time and I did not really do that before, I always thought about when I was going to get more pills.

‘I am just a better person when I am off them. I remember when I was sober after rehab I was happier then too.

Amber was arrested on December 19th at the courthouse during a meeting with probation officers for violating her probation. On December 22 she was charged with Class D felony possession of a controlled substance – hydrocodone pills.

What a mess! Hopefully she can get her life back in order. For her daughters sake!

According to multiple sources inside the Patriots organization, Gisele Bundchen should have known to keep her mouth SHUT last night after her husband’s team lost the Super Bowl. Several insiders claim the supermodel violated a “code of brotherhood” by bashing Tom Brady’s receivers.

Sources tell TMZ, the teammates are “disappointed” Gisele decided to air her grievances after the game last night — when she said, “My husband cannot f***ing throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time. I can’t believe they dropped the ball so many times.”

According to sources, Tom’s teammates feel betrayed by Gisele’s behavior — the Pats organization is a brotherhood and Gisele’s pot shot violated the code — which is basically … win as a team, lose as a team.

As one source put it, “It’s like knocking someone when they are down.”

I understand her frustration, but she should have known to wait until she was in private to say it. If you were Tom Brady’s wife, you know you would have said the same thing – her timing was just a bit off. And it’s not like she said it in front of the cameras on purpose, her comment was caught without her knowledge.

What do you think? Should Gisele have kept her mouth shut?

UPDATE: Here’s the video of Gisele’s comment. I’m sort of taking my opinion back. She isn’t exactly whispering it, she’s almost yelling it. In her defenese, I guess, she WAS being heckled. That would have been frustrating.

Did I mention I went and saw ‘The Vow’? Man, I really wanted to like that movie, but I didn’t. He is cute, and Rachel McAdams is adorable, but they just couldn’t save the movie. I don’t want to give much away – in case you are going to see it – but I found the movie incredibly frustrating.

Lindsay Lohan posed for Terry Richardson in a new photo shoot seen in Love Magazine. Tyler has photographed the troubled star dozens of times before, she’s a sort of muse of the photographer.

The Mean Girls star, who has been jailed five times in as many years, recently slammed reports that she was drinking alcohol at the SAG Awards.

Lindsay, who has been in and out of rehab,  claims to be clean of drugs and alcohol.

An insider told TMZ she was threatening to sue over the reports which claimed she was drinking on last Sunday night at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood.

She insists she only drank water all night and blamed rumours of her hard-partying on why she gets offered so few acting roles.

Her former neighbours in Venice beach have also come out recently saying she was a nightmare to live next door to, because of all the drama and partying she brought with her.

The actress has not appeared in a film since the 2010 flop Machete. She was recently replaced as the lead in the biopic on porn star Linda Lovelace by her Mean Girls co-star Amanda Seyfried.

She looks really pretty in these pictures. I hope she can stay clean, it would be great if she could have a Britney-ish-comeback.
