President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will have their first official meeting on Friday afternoon at the G20 summit in Hamburg, Germany.
It’s unclear if the two have ever met in person, mainly due to Trump’s contradictory statements over the years about the nature of his relationship with Putin.
The White House said that the leaders’ face-to-face on Friday “will be a normal bilateral meeting,” as opposed to a “pull-aside” like the one former President Obama had with Putin at last year’s conference.

And here in person, this one-of-a-kind TV star, billionaire businessman, ubiquitous brand mogul and media maestro strikes a softer pose than he has typically practiced in his decades on public display.
Relaxed behind a broad desk whose mirror sheen is mostly hidden by stacks of paper that suggest work is actually done there, Trump is pleasant, even chummy, with a my-time-is-your-time easiness greeting his guest.

Trump reportedly feels like he made Gaga a star by letting her perform at the Miss Universe Pageant in 2008, states Hollyscoop.

However, he still seems to think he should get some sort of credit for this move.

Business mogul Donald Trump has taken credit for Lady Gaga's sudden rise to stardom, insisting he's the one who gave the singer her big break three years ago.
The reality star selected Gaga as the headlining act of his popular Miss Universe Pageant in 2008, and during the show the singer performed her breakout song Just Dance for the very first time on TV.
After making her international debut on the programme, Gaga shot to fame - and Trump is certain he had a hand in giving the hitmaker her start.

"So we put her on... it was live all over the United States and all over the world and the next day, nobody was talking about (the winner of) Miss Universe, everybody was talking, 'Who was the woman, who was the entertainer? She was unbelievable.'"
And Trump reveals Gaga has been forever grateful he took a chance on her: "She's been very gracious about it... About a year ago, when she was so hot, and she's hot now, she was performing at Radio City Musical Hall and there were a lot of celebrities, all sitting next to me, and her manager came up during the performance and said, 'Gaga wants to see you, but only Donald Trump.' And it was embarrassing because of all these people and she remembered. I don't want to say we made Lady Gaga, but she was incredible and that was her break."...

The internet is buzzing about the newly released official Miss Universe photos. Images of the lace-, fishnet-, and lingerie-clad contestants in steamy poses have gained a lot of fans as well as some big detractors.
In an official statement by Donald Trump, Executive Producer of the Miss Universe Pageant, he said, "We are in a different age. They are a little bit sexy, but I'll tell you what – everybody's watching, so I have no problems with it."
A lot of people disagree with this statement, claiming it's hypocrisy in an organization that as recently as last year tried to de-throne Miss California Carrie Prejean after some racy photos surfaced. See if this CBS Morning Show video helps sway you one way or the other.
We think it's about time the pageants admitted what they are and let the girls strut their stuff. You don't have to look if it offends you.

The Miss USA Pageant is getting flack for a series of sexy pictures they just released of this year's contestants. Pageant owner Donald Trump is now defending the racy photos, telling "The Insider" he has "no problem with it." "The Miss USA Pageant and the Miss Universe Pageant just got renewed for three years by NBC, the ratings have been terrific," Trump tells "The Insider." "We are in a different age. They are a little bit sexy but I'll tell you what -- everybody's watching so I have no problems with it. If you look at Miss America, it's now off network television and we're doing better than ever so I really have no problem with it."

At Sunday night's Miss Universe pageant in the Bahamas, Heidi Montag strutted across the stage and showed off her bare midriff as she performed her new single, "Body Language." But did she actually sing on live TV? When Heidi and husband Spencer Pratt landed in Los Angeles on Monday night, they brushed off the suggestion that she was lip-synching, without actually refuting it.
"I was as live as live could be," Montag told TMZ as the couple settled into a black SUV outside Los Angeles International Airport.
"It was the livest performance in history," Pratt added.
Singing or not, there's no doubt Montag's performance became the most memorable moment of the pageant, far eclipsing chatter about the night's eventual winner,...

It usually takes years before an "artist" (the term may be used with unprecedented looseness throughout this article) steals from a peer -- Christina Aguilera waited almost half a decade to mime Madonna's "Frozen" video with the costuming in her "Fighter" clip, and Madonna waited 15 years to plagiarize a Bangladeshi composer for the instrumental to "Frozen." Heidi Montag, screw the nay-sayers, is ahead of the curve! The Hills star's debut performance during last night's Miss Universe Pageant ripped off pop culture history and nearly hampered the winning amble of Miss Venezuela.

"The world pointed and laughed as Heidi Montag Pratt made her transition from irrelevant reality star to irrelevant wannabe pop tart during NBC’s live broadcast of the 2009 Miss Universe Pageant at Atlantis on Paradise Island in the Bahamas on Sunday night." – Pop Crunch
While Pop Crunch certainly had the best opening paragraph I've seen describing the debacle that is Heidi Montag Pratt singing, let's be honest here, nobody really watched the Miss Universe Pageant, and those that did, surely changed the channel, fixed a snack, or went to the bathroom during her performance. Don't get me wrong, millions and millions of people are going to watch this video, but it's going to be via YouTube and the web today, and only to witness the travesty that is Heidi's "singing" career.
You can all judge Heidi's talent for yourself with the video below, but there's not a whole lot to judge.

'Hills' star pulls Britney Spears move, stripping down to nude-colored bra.

On Sunday night, "Hills" star Heidi Montag took to the stage for her first live televised musical performance. She appeared at the Miss Universe pageant, live from the Bahamas, to sing her single "Body Language" from her self-titled debut album, out in September.
Donning sparkly, nude-colored track pants with a tuxedo stripe and a black jacket, flanked by dancers, Heidi, who spent this past week practicing for the performance, removed the jacket to expose a nude-colored bra. It was a move that was similar to Britney Spears' 2000 Vma performance, during which she stripped down while singing "Oops! ... I Did It Again." And although Heidi smiled and seemed somewhat comfortable on the stage throughout her performance, she's not quite at Britney's level just yet.

Beauty is blossoming in South America. On Sunday, Venezuela became the first nation ever to have repeat winners in the Miss Universe pageant, as Stefania Fernandez took the 2009 title during a live televised event from the Bahamas. The 18-year-old was crowned by her countrywoman Dayana Mendoza, who won in 2008. The first runner-up was Miss Dominican Republic, Ada Aimee De La Cruz. Miss Kosovo, Gona Dragusha, was named second runner-up. Rounding out the top five were Miss Australia, Rachael Finch, and Miss Puerto Rico, Mayra Matos Perez.

For whatever reason, Donald Trump thought it would be a great idea to have Heidi Montag perform at the 2009 Miss Universe Pageant on Sunday night. Montag lip-synced her "Body Language" song from her debut album, but NBC wisely blocked out more than half of her performance to show photos of the top 15 finalists. “I think people don’t know what to expect, and how can they? It’s my first performance live and it’s in front of a billion eyes. So I’m very excited to show everyone what I’m coming with,” said Montag prior...
