MIKE&TRICIA'S HOLLYWOOD DIRT REPORT

KATY PERRY BREAKS TWITTER SILENCE: KATY PERRY has been totally absent from Twitter since her split from RUSSELL BRAND, nor has she issued any sort of statement about the impending divorce.

Of course, that hasn't stopped gossip sites, celebrity magazines, and so called "sources" from blabbing all kinds of alleged details about the split forcing Katy to break her silence and post her fist Tweet since the news went public.

"Concerning the gossip," Perry tweeted, "I want to be clear that NO ONE speaks for me. Not a blog, magazine, 'close sources' or my family."

This comes just days after her parents said their daughter's divorce was a blessing because it created interest in their ministry.

Her parents -- Keith and Mary Hudson, ministers at the Church on The Rise in Westlake, Ohio -- said ,quote, "I'm sure Katy is trending on the Internet just to get you to church tonight. I mean all over the world, who knows how God is bringing them in? The most important thing is you are here and God wants to put the fire in you in 2012."

Meanwhile ... the UK press claims that Brand was disinvited to Wednesday's People's Choice Awards, which will be Katy's first public appearance since the couple announced their divorce. Katy is up for seven awards, and producers didn't want any awkward moments for her.

BABY POOP - EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT BEYONCE'S BABY NAME: You've probably heard BEYONCE gave birth to a baby girl via C-section Saturday.

Initial reports claimed the baby’s name was Ivy Blue Carter, but Bey's good friend GWYNETH PALTROW took to Twitter to correct us and let us all know the baby’s name was actually BLUE IVY.

Now, of course, people are speculating on the meaning of the baby's name. One theory is that the first two letters of "Ivy" are the Roman numerals for four, which is Beyonce's favorite number and the name of her last album.

Another concurs and adds that both Bey and Jay's birthdays are on the fourth. "Blue", some think, could be related to Jay-Z's 'Blueprint' CD series. No word from Paltrow on how on these theories are.
