Leven Rambin new york daily news Steven Tyler

EXCLUSIVE
(New York Daily News)
Steven Tyler and Hunger Games actress Leven Rambin were spotted “making out” at Elton John’s Oscars party, reports the New York Daily News.
According to a supposed “insider” at the bash, the 22-year-old actress “attacked” the 64-year-old Aerosmith singer “with her tongue.”
Say what?!
The purported spy tattles, “She ran to him as he was posing for photos and started making out with him. I saw their tongues together.”
“They were super making out,” claims the source, who is either 13-years-old or doesn’t have a command of the English language.
The paper goes on to allege, “Tyler continued kissing Rambin while he held a woman in a red dress with his other arm, as everyone stared from their dinner tables.”
After some “serious lip service,” writes the Daily News, Randy Jackson supposedly intervened and “gave Rambin some water.”
“Their friends told them both to take it easy after the spectacle,” adds the so-called “spy.”
Hmm.
Gossip Cop has some suspicions about this report.
For starters, if this supposed make out session went on as long as the paper’s “insider” claims, then why didn’t he or she capture a better image of the alleged hookup?
Also, why should we trust an outlet that earlier on Tuesday claimed Suri Cruise was using a “body double” to fool the paparazzi?
And how were there hundreds of people at Elton John’s party, and only the tab’s “insider” heard about it?
As it turns out, our skepticism was warranted.
Rambin tells Gossip Cop exclusively that the story is “completely not true,” saying, “The ‘eyewitness’ has a very vivid and exaggerated imagination as this was just an innocent hug and kiss on the cheek to someone I admire. I’m simply a fan of Steven Tyler but this will be great for my scrapbook.”
D’Oh!

Britney Spears Legal Steven Tyler

Steven Tyler is slated to appear at a legislative session in Hawaii on Friday to show support for a proposed anti-paparazzi law that bears his name.
The so-called “Steven Tyler Act” would allow stars to receive damages from photographers who snap “offensive” pics of them while they’re on personal and private outings.
The bill, which is set to be debated by Hawaii’s Senate Judiciary Committee, has written statements of support from other stars, including Britney Spears, the Osbournes and Avril Lavigne, among others.
“The paradise of Hawaii is a magnet for celebrities who just want a peaceful vacation. As a person in the public eye, I know the paparazzi are there and we have to accept that,” Tyler, who owns a home in Maui, said in a statement.
“But when they intrude into our private space, disregard our safety and the safety of others,” he continued, “that crosses a serious line that shouldn’t be ignored.”

While the bill has received support from more than two-thirds of the state’s senators, opponents claim it is unconstitutional and infringes on the First Amendment rights of photographers, journalists and even law enforcement.
The celebs argue, however, that “providing a remedy to the often-egregious acts of the paparazzi is a very notable incentive to purchase property or vacation on the islands.”
“Not only would this help the local economy, but it would also help ensure the safety of the general public, which can be threatened by crowds of cameramen or dangerous high-speed car chases,” the stars said in their statements.
The National Press Photographers Association and the Motion Picture Association of America are among those who have voiced objections.
Gossip Cop will have updates.
