Carrie Prejean on Larry King last night!!  who is innapropriate???  



Mike Tyson was arrested last night at LAX.  The photographer is talking to TMZ and he says Mike got in 4 good punches and blood was gushing "like a water fountain."  Tony Echevarria claims he wasn't disrespectful or aggressive.  That Mike was initially in a good mood but turned sour when the pap asked about his wife, who was holding their 10-month old baby.  And Mike got more and more agitated when he couldn't find a bathroom and saw the photog shooting him.  Mike says the photographer attacked first he was just defending his family.  Tyson and the photographer were both busted for battery.


Whitney Houston
has just been added as a performing on the American Music Awards.  Look for herSunday, November 22nd at 8 PM on ABC. She will be joining an amazing group of performers  - Lady GaGa, Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, Adam Lambert, Jay-Z, Alicia Keys, Eminem, Carrie Underwood, Mary J. Blige, Shakira. 



Jon and Kate Gosselin are doing what's best for  their kids and will be spending Christmas Eve and Christmas Day together. In the same house.  According to Jon the family will "keep it all the same. Nothing has changed. That way they have the sense of security with everything that's going on."  It’s not confirmed – but I’m guessing there will be some sort of filming going on.  It would be a Gosselin holiday without one.  Side not – last we heard he was spending the holidays with his on and off gf hailey.  So either that has changed – or she is coming home for the holidays too.  



 
Somebody wake up Britney Spearsher twitter has been hacked.  this morning ‘she ‘ posted -

And - I give myself to Lucifer every day for it to arrive as quickly as possible. Glory to Satan!   
A little scary.  #Donthackbritney is now a treding topic.  
 



Taylor Swift scored huge at the Country Music Awards last night.  4 awards…. Including winning entertainer of the year!!  She is the youngest to ever win this award.  Meanwhile, CMA co—hosts Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley sang a rendition of “Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys,”   “Mamas don’t let your babies grow up to Kanye,” they sang. “Let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks, ’cause cowboys have manners, they don’t interrupt.”


I wonder who is gonna win this war… Rihanna is debuting her music video for her single Russian Roulette on 20/20 this Friday while Chris Brown will be doing this same with his music video for Crawl on the Wendy Williams Show.  20/20 and Wendy Williams. See the difference, there? 
In the meantime – Rihanna loves her junk food.  In her tour rider – the list is mostly food requests.  24 hot wings, cheese puff snacks, a box of Frosted Flakes, a whole jerk chicken and, of course, turkey bacon at any time of the day.

Donald Trump and Omorosa.  Together again.  A new show called Omarosa’s Ultimate Merger – it’s a dating show where she tries to find love out of 12 business minded bachelors.  You’ve seen it before – Rock of Love, Flavor of Love, I love new York… they are filming in Vegas at the Trump hotel.  It’ll be on TV One. 


People.com is reporting that Chuck Wicks and Julianne Hough have ended their year-and-a-half romance.  The source says it was mutual – that they needed time apart.  They met in the summer of 2008 and have been inseperable ever since – even danced together on DWTS and they have a dog together.  Btw – Aaron Carter got voted off.  There was a dance off – between Aaron C and Kelly O - but only one ‘star’ was told to leave the dance floor for good.  
  


It sounds like a nightmare, but it's happening!  Evolution Media, the production company that brought us all The Real Housewives, is now shopping a male version of the reality show. Boys Club:
ATL also set in Atlanta.  They say men's lives are as dramatic and interesting as their female counterparts. 




She’s done it before, and she’s ready to do it again! In the new issue of OK!, they say Angelina Jolie’s plans to bring home a baby from Syria, even if Brad Pitt isn’t quite ready to be a dad to kid No. 7!  Back when Angelina was still married to ex Billy Bob Thornton in 2001, she adopted son Maddox — legally, by herself.  He has made it clear that six children are more than he can handle,” the source says. “The idea of one more seemed ludicrous, but Angie is determined to complete her rainbow family.”



He is known as the meanest guy on the small screen  - but that nastiness has made him a very rich man.  According to Forbes Simon Cowell is the best paid man on primetime tv.  The Idol judge made 75-mil last year.  Real estate mogul turned reality show host Donald Trump came in second banking 50-mil.  heres the top 10...
1. Simon Cowell - $75 million

2. Donald Trump - $50 million

3. Ryan Seacrest - $38 million

4. Charlie Sheen - $21 million

5. Steve Carell - $20 million

6. Howie Mandel - $15 million

7. Kiefer Sutherland - $13 million

8. Jeff Foxworthy - $11 million

9. Hugh Laurie - $10 million

10. David Caruso - $9 million (tie)

10. Patrick Dempsey - $9 million (tie)



Just in time for the holidays – a new book.  Its called How to be Famous – Our guide to looking the part, playing the press and becoming a tabloid fixture.  Its written by – Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt. They let you know that they are completely aware and make no apologies for being self-absorbed, self-serving and self centered and they show you how to do the same. In 10-easy steps.  Some of the chapter titles… “Guide to Playing the Villain”  “Getting Work Done Is Your Job”, “How to Say ‘I Hate You’ Without Saying a Word”  in stores next week. 


Not surprised - Joe Jackson is gonna have to give up those hundred dollar dinners!  A Superior Court judge denied Joe the right to receive any of his late son's cash, and he's not allowed to challenge the executors of MJ's will (John Branca and John McClain) any longer.  Whew.  The judge said - "Joe Jackson takes none of this estate. This is a decision his son made. He is not allowed to further litigation"

Papa Joe only makes 17-hundred a month on social security – gotta kill him when he heard his sons estate spent 1 million dollars on the private family funeral for Michael.  850-grand for the funeral, 35-thsnd on the outfit he was buried in, another  2-grand on clothes for the family, 36-hundred to frame a pic of MJ ( I know a guy who could have done that for waay less). 

The Jackson family also paid...
$2,000 for usher costumes, $959 for embroidery, $11,716 for invitations and programs, $16,000 for flowers, $30,000 for cars and security and $15,000 for a funeral designer.  There was also a charge of $21,455 for the ”funeral repast” at a restaurant after the ceremony.  And I hear – while they waited to bury the King of Pop they were charged $5,000 a month for holding his remains in a temporary vault.

Dr. Conrad Murray was on the phone with his girlfriend as Michael Jackson was dying,  that’s what TMZ just found out.  They know people.  Apparently Dr. Murray was on a cell phone with his girlfriend from Houston between 12:03 and 12:13 PM on June 25, 2009 -- the day Jackson died.  The girlfriend told LAPD detectives ... about 5 minutes into the call, she heard Dr. Murray abruptly drop the phone and then heard him administer CPR. The girlfriend said there was no indication Dr. Murray knew anything was wrong before dropping the telephone.  911 was called at 12:21p, - 13 minutes later. 

 Joe Halderman -- the guy accused of trying to extort $2 million from David Letterman has some great friends.  Apparently they are chipping in to pay his legal bills.  So far friends and co-workers at CBS have raised 50-grand… TMZ says a lot of the staffers at 48-hrs refuse to believe their colleague us guilty of extortion – and if he is it’s because of money issues and his divorce. 



Michael Jackson never signed his will and the named executors have committed fraud.  That’s what poppa Joe Jackson is claiming.  He just filed legal papers.  Yes – there was a clerical mistake in the will.  TMZ cleared this up weeks ago – the will says it was signed in LA but MJ was in NYC that day.  The lawyers say the will was actually signed in NYC… and witnesses say they saw him sign it.  Joe doesn’t think it was a mistake – but rather that his son never signed it.  He wants the lawyers/executors fired because they concealed ‘fraud’.  A lawyer for Branca and McClain says these claims are outrageous and bogus.  They will continue to carry out Michaels wishes for the benefit of his mom, the kids and charities. 


Justin Timberlake took Jessica Biel to the Jay Z concert in LA this weekend.  So are they back together?  Not really.  According to sources they are now ‘friends with benefits’.  Nothing more - nothing less.  Justin doesn’t want the serious relationship – but likes hanging out with her.  She was a wreck when he broke up – so this is better than nothing.  This is of course a win-win for Justin.  He can date other women if he wants.  But I guarantee when she wakes up from her JT high and starts to date as well – he will flip out!! 
In other JT news – he has a stalker – 
  Justin Timberlake says he fears for his personal safety.  He and his lawyers submitted a declaration to a judge yesterday… apparently there is a woman who has been harassing him – too much.  Got him scared.  So scared he didn’t even want to go to court yesterday… Timberlake called the conduct of the woman in question -- Karen McNeil -- "ever-increasing, aggressive and harassing" – and her trespassing on his property was "seriously alarming."  The judge agrees.  He granted a permanent restraining order, which prohibits McNeil from having any direct or indirect contact with Timberlake.


So – DWTS on last night – they were each assigned a different decade.  Mya and Dmitri got the highest scores for their 70’s samba.  Joanna and Derek got 52 for their futuristic dances, Kelly and Louie got the 60’s and got 51. Aaron and Karina picked the 90’s and scored 50.  and Donny and Kym got the 80;s – Donny looked like MJ – Kym was a Madonna lookalike  they also got a 50. 


In the meantime – Aaron Carter says he has written a song for Karina Smirnoff – his partner.  Says he will release the single called Dance with Me soon – and wants Karina in the music video.  And Kelly Osborne says she has lost probably 20-lbs since she started dancing on the show.  Her partner Louie says she is fading in his arms – and says it could be more like 30-lbs because she has added so much muscle.  Kelly says while she is eating better and dropped sodas from her routine – she is (bleeping) starving.


What’s with the people down under??  They are furious that Britney Spears lipsynched on stage this week… some fans wanted their a refund for their tickets.  Didn’t anyone tell them?  That’s what she does.  It’s not like she is just holding out on the Aussies.  She does this everywhere… seriously.  It’s for the best.  She is really taking it hard.  Her people say it's about the dancing and the "incredible spectacle" of the show!


Donald Trump and Omorosa. 
Together again.  A new show called Omarosa’s Ultimate Merger – it’s a dating show where she tries to find love out of 12 business minded bachelors.  You’ve seen it before – Rock of Love, Flavor of Love, I love new York… they are filming in Vegas at the Trump hotel.  It’ll be on TV One. 

He was one of the fastest linebackers of all time ... but NFL Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor was arrested Sunday night after cops say he booked it from the scene of an accident.  LT, who was just recently seen on the dance floor at DWTS – was arrested in Dade County, Florida for "leaving scene of an accident/property damage."  Taylor was brought to a local police station, where he was booked, smiled for a mug shot, and was eventually released on $500 bond.

Taylor Swift on SNL this weekend.  so cute.  the monologue was the best part.  She sang about her ex Joe, her new bf Taylor and of course - Kanye. 



Remember last when we heard
Eddie Cibrian was cheating on LeAnn Rimes?  This week - Eddie announced he is s planning on suing Life & Style Magazine for printing the story.  Wow – that’s one way to nip a rumor in the bud.   Sources said Cibrian was "bragging" to the crew on CSI: Miami about his extra fling - but Eddie says the story is untrue!  His people even issued a statement – heres the whole thing...
 

Unfortunately Life & Style Magazine has chosen to go out with a story filled with inaccuracies and deceitful lies, presumably to titillate sales, but clearly resulting in harm to Eddie Cibrian and others. This is irresponsible and reckless journalism. Eddie has met with his attorneys and will be filing a suit for libel and other actionable grounds shortly. It's a shame that Life & Style resorted to a story of this nature and they will regretfully now have to face scrutiny of untruthful reporting in a court proceeding.

So those tapes that were released of a very distressed Lindsay Lohan – actually made her father a little cash.  Is anyone surprised?  Michael Lohan released thos tapes to the media and originally he demanded 100-thsnd dollars – but eventually settled with giving them for free.  In exchange for a paid interview with website radaronline.com – daddy dearest at his finest.  No wonder she is filing a restraining order. 

What is Aerosmith without Steven Tyler? Joe Perry and some other guys I guess.  Joe was just quoted by the Las Vegas Sun that he thinks Tyler quit – but he really isn’t sure.  Heres the quote - "Steven quit as far as I can tell ... I don't know for how long, indefinitely or whatever”. The front man has had a boatload of injuries this year including a broken shoulder in August after tumbling off the stage while performing.  Perry says Aerosmith has all plans to continue without Tyler and are looking for a new singer, not to replace Steven, rather to "move the Aerosmith… vibe up a notch."


He has been dead for a little over 4 months – and father Joe Jackson is finally trying to get a little cash from the king of pop.  He wants a month allowance from the Michael Jackson estate – to cover his extravagant 15-thsnd dollar a month lifestyle in Vegas. He only clears 17-dundred a month on social security checks.  He used get a little cash his way from his wife Katherine – who got it from Michael originally.  But now Michael’s money is only supposed to go to his mom to care for the kids… not the deadbeat father.  so what does he spend his money on?? 

Joe spends $1,200 a month for rent, $2,500 to eat out, $1,000 on entertainment, gifts and vacations, $2,000 on air travel and $3,000 on hotels!  maybe its time to cut back Joe !!

Oprah is taking her syndicated talk show off network broadcasts and is moving it to her cable network, the Oprah Winfrey Network, in 2011.  

Here's the key points:

  • She's moving her production out of Chicago to LA as soon as 2011.
  • She's moving the show to OWN, because Discovery Communications (who owns OWN) told Oprah to move the show, or lose her network.
  • OWN is in 70 million homes replacing Discovery Health.
  • CBS and ABC will be the big losers. CBS syndicates the show, ABC stations are the core station group for Oprah's show.
  • Discovery is rumored to lose millions on OWN, so they're treating it as a loss leader.
  • Oprah's meeting with programming executives to get the network up and running.

    update!!  maybe not.  her people are denying any definite move out of chicago.  stay tuned...

 
Threesome on Gossip Girl – equals trouble.   Gossip Girl has a TV watchdog group upset - a promo about a potential threesome in an coming episode of the teen drama has the Parents Television Council asking CW affiliates to preempt the show. In a statement, the organization called the threesome “reckless and irresponsible.”


Jennifer Lopez
is fighting to stop the release of 11 hours of home video footage, which among other things shows her parading around mostly naked and arguing with her mother.  Her ex is behind it – of course.  The ENQUIRER has seen the tape – and they have the details.  Sources say the  star is embarrassed it might hurt her image – of a sexy but wholesome wife and mom. 

Dancing with the Stars' Cheryl Burke is in negotiations to star as Roxie Hart in the Broadway production of Chicago.  And supposedly she can sing!  Most just see her as a dancer – but she trained for her audition with one of the top vocal coaches in L.A.  that could be cool… holidays in NYC where her brf lives – signing and dancing every night.  We have gilles marini later this morning – we’ll find out his take on it. 




Janet Jackson opens her doors.  Singer Janet Jackson will welcome cameras into her home for the first time since the death of her big brother Michael Jackson.  The pop star will talk to ABC’s Robin Roberts for an hour-long special expected to air on Nov. 18. What’s next for her? Janet will release a greatest hits album this holiday season.


Jon Gosselins date book is filling up: First there’s  Thanksgiving at Hailey Glassmans faily home (yea they are back together)  then on Dec. 14 he has to appear in a Maryland courtroom in relation to TLC’s breach of contract lawsuit against him. RadarOnline.com says a judge will hear TLC’s motion for a preliminary injunction and the dad-of-8 might be questioned under oath about his outside income.  TLC says he violated the contract he signed with them in a number of ways, including breaching their exclusivity and confidentiality clauses. 


Rihanna is on 20/20 tonight.  In the pages of Glamour as well.  Talking very openly about the incident with Chris Brown.  She didn’t hold back – she says she was embarrassed that she loved him.  That she loved a man who could do that to her.  And then she says this… The thing that men don't realize, when they hit a woman, it's… the face, the broken arm, the black eye, it's going to heal. That's not … the problem. It's the scar inside. You flashback. You … you remember it all the time. It comes back to you whether you like it or not. And it's painful. So I don't think he understood that. They never do."

Despite the beating, Rihanna said she still cares about Brown.  "I don't hate him at all," she said. "I actually love and care about him and I'm concerned about him doing well. I want him to do well — have a great career, have a great life, and grow up. Just take this as something that you had to go through to grow up and learn."

Wow! So powerful.  Rihanna on 20/20 tonight ABC.

RIHANNA SPEAKS!! 








New Moon’s Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart grace the December cover of  Harpers Bazaar.  Such beautiful pictures.  Inside they talk about each other – the good the bad and why she calls him ‘Flippy’.    


Some highlights:

Stewart calls Pattinson “a great singer. Heartbreaking,” while Pattinson says of his costar, “She’s a unique girl. You really don’t meet many people like Kristen.”

When asked who is more romantic, Stewart immediately says Pattinson, adding, “I’d have to say Rob is. I think romance is anything honest. As long as it’s honest, it’s so disarming.”

When is Pattinson posed with the same question he quips, “What did Kristen say?” When he finds out that she pointed at him, he responds, “No. I’m better at faking” and laughs.

Pattison on Stewart: “Kristen doesn’t take any slack. She sticks to her guns - and that’s difficult to do.”

Stewart on who is more athletic: “I’m definitely claiming that one. Rob can barely jump rope. I call him Flippy because when he does his stunt rehearsals, he flips around [makes gestures like a penguin]. And God, when he tries to run…”

Pattinson on who googles themselves more: “[Kristin] would say me, but I reckon it’s her. If either one of us catches the other one doing it, we’re like, Jesus Christ, is that what you’re looking at? And the other one’s on their phone pretending to text. I look up my competition more than she does. I’m incredibly shallow. I think she just looks at herself.”




Looks like Stephanie Pratt has a good lawyer – she has entered herself into a rehab program beofr eher sentencing on her DUI.  By doing that she kinda avoids jail time.  According to a  a "friend", Stephanie is planning to enroll in an outpatient rehabilitation program to deal with her drinking issues.



She's mad as hell and not going to take it any more!  Lindsay Lohan has been in touch with her lawyers not only about a restraining order against father Micheal but also the possibility of a defamation lawsuit.  That would be a smart move after her father has completely betrayed Lindsay and released tapes of conversations she had where she sounds severely distressed!  Her lawyers are also talking with NYC authorites to see if daddy-dearest violated a criminal protective order.


 


Once a cheater – always a cheater.  Word on the street is that Eddie Cibrian is now cheating on LeAnn Rimes with a younger aspiring actress. And this is not a new romance – this has been an ongoing thing for 3 years.  So that means he cheated on his wife with this one too.  According to Life & Style magazine, Eddie started seeing her again last month and apparently told her that he is only with LeAnn for the publicity and plans to end it soon.  A friend drops him off at her apartment and then picks him up a few hours later.  Probably the same friend who used to help Eddie sneak around with LeAnn. 




The Kardashians got signed up for a charity boxing thing – and ended up with some serious injuries.  Kim, Khloe, brother Rob and Bruce Jenner all took the ring with what was supposed to be guys who were supposed to go easy with them.  Sadly for Rob, his mask fell off at one point and his competitor punched him so hard that Rob was sent to the hospital with a concussion!!!   Kim got a black eye from her pro.    

read all about it on her blog!

Kevin Spacey
got a poor waiter fired in
Rhode Island.  Apparently, Kevin's dinner party thought it would be fine if they lit up some cigarettes at their table as it turns out, that is illegal in the state of Rhode Island, and Peter the waiter was instructed by his boss to kindly ask them to stop. He had a cute line, "You're not allowed to smoke in here unless you're on fire," but that just sent Kevin into a rage. He called Peter an aggressive (bleep) and told to "get the (bleep) away" from his table. Pete told his boss – who freaked out - on Peter.  The poor guy was laid off three days later.

Getting more deets on why Ashlee Simpson got booted from
Melrose Place.  Bad attitude.  An insider says she was a total diva on the set, late all the time, and deeply disliked by fellow cast members," and then there’s the fact that she wasn’t a very good actress.  Again, this is from the insider on the set.  The network was desperate to bring in Heather Locklear - they basically trimmed the fat and made it possible for Heather to join the show," the source claims. "Heather is a much bigger name than Ashlee."  Meanwhile – her big sis Jessica is sticking up for Ashlee and knocking down the CW on twitter.  heres the story on the tweets. 


I hope Fergie got a prenup.  First a stripper has come forward to reveal that she had sex with her hubby Josh Duhamel - after he was married to Fergie!  According to the stripper, she met Josh while he was in Georgia filming Life As We Know It. And for the doubters, the National Enquierer, who broke the story, gave the stripper a lie detector test - which she passed!  Josh is totally denying it.  And now some other girls are coming forward saying they got busy with the then-engaged hottie while he was filming Transformers 2.  i hope its not true - but so far it doenst look good for Josh!  


Aaron Carter may have scored a near perfect score the night before – but the fans are not impressed.  Aaron ended up in the bottom three this week.  And apparently that really shook him up.  Karina was the one who talked to the press – she said he did not expect it at all.  Michael Irvin was the first to be eliminated… the Aaron and Mark the Iron chef went toe to toe in the dance off.  Mark danced first – Karina says she wouldn’t let Aaron watch so he could stay focused.  It worked – he won the dance off and gets to stay another week.  So the top 5 are Joanna Krupa, Donny Osmond, Mya, Kelly Osborne and Aaron.  Next week another double elimination.

Wow – I must say I didn’t see this coming.  Sony Pictures just announced that the Michael Jackson documentary, This Is It, will stay in theaters through Thanksgiving weekend. So much for the exclusive – only in theaters for 2 weeks hype.  Im sure those people who stood in line for four days aren’t thrilled.


We've heard what Chris Brown had to say - now it is finally Rihanna’s turn. 
ABC announced this morning that along with her scheduled performance on Good Morning America on Thursday, RiRi will finally be sitting down and telling her side of the story! A tell-all interview will premiere on GMA and then extend into a 20/20 special on Friday.  So set your dvr’s. 
ALSO - Glamour magazine just named her Woman of the Year.  heres a few hilights...

Rihanna on the ordeal with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown: “I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears. That was the level of media chaos that happened the next day.”

Rihanna on her message to young women: “My story was broadcast all over the world for people to see, and they have followed every step of my recovery. The positive thing that has come out of my situation is that people can learn from that. I want to give as much insight as I can to young women, because I feel like I represent a voice that really isn’t heard. Now I can help speak for those women.”

Rihanna on that leaked photo of her bruised face.  "That is not a photo you would show to anybody," she says. "I felt completely taken advantage of . . . like people were making it into a fun topic . . . and it's my life. I was disappointed, especially when I found out the photo was [supposedly leaked by] two women."


David Letterman’s sexcapades with female staffers could have cost of him his marriage - it doesn't seem like American audiences really care.  His ratings are still solid.  No word if people are tuning in to support him or hate him, they are tuning in and viewership has even grown by 10% compared to last year. No word if Jimmy Kimmells show will have the same effect. 



Jon Gosselin has made some major changes in the last week or so.  First he broke up with gf Hailey Glassman.  A source says the two are "taking a break". 
The bro-mance between  Jon and Michael Lohan is also over.  I guess The Divorced Dads' Club reality show is off the table now. 
And now I hear the father of 8 says he intends to deliver two powerful words to his ex - I'm sorry.  Why the sudden housecleaning and change of heart?  Jon has found some spiritual guidance with celebrity Rabbi Schmuley.  He says there is an apology for his kids too.  He says ‘Even though I was a good father for eight years, it doesn't matter. Those eight months have tarnished those eight years”   


Meanwhile – Kate is drinking the Kool Aid too.  The mom of 8 now admits she was ‘very hard’ on her soon to be ex hubby.  In another TLC special, Kate: Her Story, Kate says “I was wrong to treat him that way - Was it good, healthy and wonderful? No. Am I proud of those moments that were captured? No.”  She says she still wakes up hoping the phone will ring “and it’ll be the old Jon.”


Gordon Ramsey is ready for TV domination.  He’s set to host the American Idol of food shows - an amateur cooking contest called MasterChef.  Home cooks compete to create the perfect dish. It’s about people who are lawyers, construction workers and stay-at-home moms who rock the kitchen. 



Dakota Fanning
is living the life of a major movie star – and a real 15 yr old too!  Dakota is a cheerleader at Campbell Hall Episcopal High School in North Hollywood, and this weekend she was named a member of the Homecoming Court and then Homecoming Queen during a football game.  So cute.

Michael Jackson’s This Is It was the number one movie this Halloween with a $21.3 million opening weekend.  The behind-the-scenes concert film pulled in $101 million worldwide in its first five days.  Trailing in second place at the box office was the low-budget horror movie Paranormal Activity which made $16.5 million.



Sir Elton's is really sick.  After canceling several concerts in the UK and Ireland in October due to influenza, it's now being reported that Elton John has been diagnosed with a "serious case" of E. coli.  Because of that his 3 upcoming gigs in Seattle and Portland with Billy Joel have been postponed.  He is in a hospital being treated.

Poor Marilyn!  No one wants to be next to the original blonde bombshell for all of eternity.  The crypt above Monroe's at Westwood Village's Memorial Park went up for auction 10 days ago, but not a single bid was placed!!!  That's what happens when you request millions upon millions for a crypt!  The family is now said to be "weighing their options" on what to do with the multi-million dollar crypt.


Jon Gosselin has decided to end it with Homewrecking Hailey!  A source says the two are "taking a break" after Gosselin received some spiritual advice from Rabbi Shmuley! Jon decided he "needed to spend some time on his own" and allegedly called it quits with Hailey. Meanwhile – the bromance between  Jon and Michael Lohan is also over.  Apparently, Michael was upset with how Jon handled his relationship with former Star reporter Kate Major who's "like a daughter" to him.  Of course he issued a statement that no one cares to hear right?  Of course.   I guess The Divorced Dads' Club is off the table now. 


 

An LA judge just granted Nicole Richie a temporary restraining order against 2 paparazzo’s.  Apparently these guys would camp outside her house – waiting for Nicole to leave and then scream at her in an attempt to get a reaction.  They also chased her in their car.  Which led to that crash a few weeks ago.  The paps have been given the order to stay at least 100 yards away from Richie, as well as her kids Harlow and Sparrow, at all times.

Is this a sign of the reality show Apocalypse?  Jon Gosselin and Octomom are going on a date – and cameras will be there to catch the whole freak show.  The guy who brought us the show ‘cheaters’ is making it happen.  It started when Nadya Suleman said a few weeks ago that she thought Jon was cute.  Both are denying any involvement – but the producer says it’s totally in the works.  Potential name?  jon minus kate equals jon plus Octomom.  It needs some work.
