Maybe its Twitter's fault, but stars sure seem to be oversharing these days.We know their most intimate marital secrets, their health problems, their fertility problems, and how much money they made last year. What is impolite to discuss at the dinner table has become common celebrity Facebook fodder. In fact, it has gotten so bad that we've decided to count down the Top 5 topics that celebs might consider keeping to themselves, or sharing with therapists and/or clergy, instead of blasting out to their 742,489 Twitter fans, and hence, the world. 5.

On Parenting: Joan And Melissa Rivers

On reality TV, mother-daughter duo Joan and Melissa Rivers live together in Los Angeles with Melissa's 10-year-old son Cooper, which is an ideal fishbowl to observe two loud and highly-opinionated moms share space. ("I am constantly critiquing Melissa and am never happy," Joan told the Huffington Post about how her 43-year-old daughter dresses.) In reality, though, the senior Ms. Rivers -- a born and bred New Yorker and a believer in some familial boundaries -- splits her time between the family circus in California and her Upper East Side apartment. Last week, the Rivers' women sat down with HuffPost Parents there, to compare notes about motherhood, often finishing each other's sentences. The moment I knew I was a parent was... Melissa: The first time Cooper got really hurt. I looked at my mom and said, "I can't deal with this" and she looked at me and said, "You have to." The best parenting advice I ever got was... Joan: Your...

Rihanna news: Pop singer sports large sweat patch on her top after nightclub visit

Image
The singer sported a voluminous patch of armpit sweat on her tight-fitting top as she partied in Hollywood. The soggy sight was almost enough to turn attention away from her unrestrained assets, visible under her sheer black top. Rihanna is making a habit of stepping out in public minus a bra, and last night she continued the trend. However, she kept her liberated boobs under wraps for the most part, thanks to a leather jacket she threw on over her top. The Rude Boy star, 23, teamed her all-black clobber with a camouflage baseball cap for her night out at Greystone Manor nightclub in LA. Party girl ...
