Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo to Appear on Hawaii Five-O

Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo have landed a role on the small screen that involves more than just hosting.
The engaged couple has been cast on Hawaii Five-0, the highest-rated new show of the season.

According to CBS sources, Nick and Vanessa will appear on a February episode of the drama. Minnillo will portray a character named Susan who works as a deckhand on a cruise boat that's taken hostage. Lachey will be her fiance.
It's a role he's been studying for over the last few weeks.

Breaking Dawn Producer Spills Sex Scene Secrets, Storylines

From crazy sex in Brazil to an impending vampire massacre, there are many reasons for fans to be excited over the release of Breaking Dawn On November 18.
The film will be broken into two halves, but are the rumors of how this will take place accurate? Producer Wyck Godfrey spoke to USA Today this week and answered a series of questions...

On splitting the movies:
"We basically want to take the audience through the emotional part of Bella's journey as she becomes a vampire. The first part will cover the wedding, the honeymoon and the birth."

On the PG-13 rating:
"It would be a crime against our audience to go R-rated. This is based on a much more mature book. We need to progress and be more sophisticated."

On the birth of Renesmee:
"She is looking through the haze, experiencing pain and everything rushing around her. We only see what she sees."

On the Edward/Bella sex scene:
"It does not become soft porn. It is a legitimate and important part of the movie, romantic and sensual."

Kredit Kard Katastrophe: Kardashians Sued for $75 Million

The Kardashians have kause for koncern.
Five weeks after they took their debit card off the market because it was associated with dangerously high fees, Kim, Kourtney, Khloe and Kris have been sued by The Revenue Resource Group, LLC. For $75 million.
The company claims these sisters breached their contract when they pulled out of the aforementioned deal. It's the biggest pulling out scandal Kim has been involved in since November 2007.

Following an announcement by the Attorney General of Connecticut, who said he'd consider an investigation into the MasterCard-approved debit card, the siblings dropped out of their deal.

But Revenue Resource Group says they signed a two-year contract and their public bashing of the product has affected the company's bottom line. RRG is seeking $75 million in damages.

Perhaps this will teach the family a lesson about attaching their name to any product that comes calling. But, somehow, we doubt it will.

Are Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens Back Together?

Looks like World War III has been called off, or at least put on hold.
Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson struck a truce over LiLo moving next door to Sam in Venice, Calif., which caused a minor uproar earlier this week.
Reports say Lohan, who just got out of rehab and "had no idea" she was moving in to the condo directly next door to her ex, apologized to Ronson for it.
Sam not only bought it, they left things on good terms. Go figure!

CLOSE QUARTERS: Seriously. This is how close the former lovers are living to each other, which Linds says is total coincidence. [Photo: Pacific Coast News]

Lindsay, who just leased the place, is expected to move in any day now and, "Neither of them are mad at each other and everything has been cleared up."
We imagine she'll sing a different tune if she wakes up at 4 a.m. to the sound of Lindsay Lohan drunk and hooking up, but we're glad it's all good for now.

Are Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens Back Together?

So much for those Rumer Willis rumors.
Just weeks after they shocked the celebrity gossip world with their split, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens looked to be back together at last night's SHG's Eden Hollywood opening.
They were "constantly touching and kissing each other," a witness told People.

Efron and Hudgens arrived together (alongside Brittany Snow) and quickly hit the dance floor.

"Vanessa was bopping around with her arms up while Zac had his hands all over her," the onlooker said. "Vanessa had a smile on from ear to ear and the two were inseparable after that."

It really was back to old times for the duo, adds the insider: "They were making out on and off for the last hour or so until closing. They acted like there was no one else in the room."

After arriving with pal Brittany Snow around midnight, the actors quickly took to the dance floor. "Vanessa was bopping around with her arms up while Zac had his hands all over her," the source says. "Vanessa had a smile on from ear to ear and the

Gabrielle Giffords, Arizona Congresswoman, Shot in Head at Public Event

Gabrielle Giffords was at the center of what President Obama has described as an "unspeakable tragedy" this morning.
The Arizona Congresswoman was one of 18 people shot - 12 of whom are injured, six reportedly killed - during a shooting in Tuscon. The public event was a meeting of constituents that took place outside a Safeway grocery store.

She underwent surgery this afternoon for a wound to the head, with Dr. Peter Rhee of the University Medical Center saying he's "very optimistic about her recovery."
The suspected culprit has been identified as a 22-year old named Jared Lee Loughner.
On her Facebook page, Sarah Palin offered "sincere condolences" to Giffords' family and others involved in the shooting. Why is this relevant?
In March 2010, - after Tweeting at "Commonsense Conservatives & lovers of America [to] RELOAD!" - Palin used gun sights on a map to target Democrats engaged in tough re-election battles. Giffords was one of those politicians.

Bieber Fever: Caught by Glee!

Following the occasional rumor of the past few months, it looks like Glee producers have finally come down with a case of Bieber Fever.
Michael Ausiello, one of the most reliable sources in TV journalism, reports that the Fox smash will dedicate a full episode to Justin Bieber this February.

Despite his recent claim to be open to an appearance on the series, sources say Bieber is not currently scheduled to make a cameo.

Instead, as it has done for artists such as Britney Spears and Madonna, Glee will simply cover a number of Justin's singles on the upcoming episode. Insiders do say, however, that "Bieber himself will figure into the plot" in some fashion.

Commence hyperventilating, Beliebers, in 3... 2... 1...

American Idol Season 10: Confirmed Changes

As the nation prepares for the return of its favorite TV show, there has been constant speculation about the state of American Idol.
Just what changes are actually in store? Will the show actually make like Big Brother? Will there be a round of 24? Entertainment Weekly spoke to producers of the competition and can confirm the following facts about season 10.

Will there be a music video challenge? No.

Must contestants sing songs from various genres? Yes. Says Nigel Lythgoe: "If you do Motown, then I’m not sure [how] you’re going to sing an R&B song and give it your country flavor... it’s not going to be like that. They’ve got to be clever with it.”

Will voting move online? No.

How will the show replace the top 24 round? With a sudden death Top 20 round. In Hollywood, it will narrow the contestants down to 20 crooners, and then will viewers vote in a round that will select the finalists from among two groups of ten.

How many finalists will there be? 10 or 12.

Will there still be gender parity? No. Says Ken Warwick: "If I’ve got six fantastic boys and four average girls, I’m certainly not going to throw out a fantastic boy to put in another average girl, or vise versa."

Jillian Harris Has Brad Womack's Back

Jillian Harris says she fully supports Brad Womack getting a second chance on The Bachelor. She might even be feeling a little jealous of him, in fact.
The Bachelorette star chose Ed Swiderski. That didn't work out.
"I won't lie that when I heard he was getting a second chance, I was a bit green-eyed and thought seriously about hitting my [The Bachelor creator] Mike Fleiss speed dial, demanding he cough up my second chance, too," she writes.

Jillian also commented on the infamous season premiere slap.

"When Chantal slapped Brad on the The Bachelor season premiere, he responded that he liked her more. I had to hold myself back from leaping through the screen to slap him again! Not because he deserved it, but because he didn't!"
"I am very much on the supporting side of this second chance debate. In fact, I'm floored at the pressure put on Brad by himself, the media, and the girls."
"I have learned a lot this year. No one is perfect, sometimes people just aren't ready, and most importantly, everyone deserves a second chance."
"This is why I was going crazy seeing Brad being so hard on himself. In fact, I was actually starting to get a tad annoyed by it. Don't get me wrong, I've had my heart broken and know the hurt my girls Jenni and Deanna felt three years ago."
"But Brad Womack did something you don't see all the time; he went against the rules of the show and just followed the rules of life."
He also follows the narrative written by the show, and that's to harp on the whole "second chance" angle until he's blue in the face.
That way, no one can accuse him of being blase about it, and America can like him again. At least that's how Mike Fleiss drew it up.
For a look at how it works out for him, check out these Bachelor spoilers now ... but beware, there is major information in there.

Stalker Much? Lindsay Lohan Living NEXT DOOR to Samantha Ronson; Beach Community Not Happy

Two days out of rehab and Lindsay Lohan is already causing a stir.
Not only might she still face jail time for her little scuffle at Betty Ford, the quiet L.A. beachside community of Venice where she moved is displeased.
Number one on its list of ticked off residents? Samantha Ronson. Lohan is living next door to her, after all. All by "coincidence," Lindsay claims.

THE OLD DAYS: Sam isn't smiling right now.

Ronson's distaste for hoards of photographers was a big reason she and Lohan broke up (for further evidence of why, see these Lindsay drunk photos).
Just the same, LiLo claims she had "no idea" her new beach house was right next door to her ex, and is willing to move in order to "keep the peace."
Lohan says she was aware Sam lived somewhere in Venice, Calif., but had no idea where until she saw her pull into the garage next door Tuesday.
Now Sam is "pissed" and she's far from the only one.
“We usually don’t do celeb stuff, but got a lot of emails on this one... so... Lindsay Lohan is moving to Venice?” a local neighborhood website wrote.
Hollywood stars such as Rosario Dawson, Emile Hirsch, Anna Paquin and Tim Robbins prefer residing in Venice as an escape from the paparazzi.
Lohan’s move may put a damper on that coveted privacy.
"People move to Venice to get away from Hollywood,” one resident said. “Lindsay Lohan represents exactly what everyone is trying to escape.”
“If she moves here I hope someone posts a pic of her vehicle so I know when to get off the street & outta [sic] her way!” a Venice resident said.
"A block away from me. Gonna [sic] get a gun."

Kourtney Kardashian Prepares to Take New York, Pretend to Run a Business

It might appear as though they do nothing but party, pose on the red carpet and give magazine interviews, but Kourtney Kardashian wants to make it clear: she and sister Kim Kardashian work HARD.
Viewers will find out what this means when Kourtney & Kim Take New York premieres this month on E!.

Somehow, Kourtney Kardashian found time recently to get her bikini body back about 12 times AND open up a store in NYC.

"We were shocked at how much harder it was to open a store in New York as compared to Los Angeles and Miami," Kourtney told People. "We are on the same block as mega successful stores like Chanel so we really had our work cut out for us. It was a lot more detail and worry than we ever imagined."
What will be the highlights of this totally unscripted, brutally honest look at running a business?
"What hassles we went through to get the store open and how amazing it looks now," Kourtney teases.
Naturally, storylines involving the gals going out in New York City will also be included, as Kourtney concluded: "We had a blast. It also gave Kim and I the chance to spend a lot of time together like we did growing up."

Kendra Wilkinson: Inside Her Fake Divorce Drama

The latest issue of In Touch Weekly takes readers inside the pending divorce between Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett.
But allow THG to save you the cover price of this tabloid and do the reporting for you: there is no pending divorce between Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett. That's pretty much it.

With no new sex tape on the market, and having already pretended to have had a miscarriage, Kendra has turned to fake relationship drama in order to remain relevant.

Just to be clear: Wilkinson has not called it quits. She has not met with a divorce lawyer. And there's no battle for her baby. It also might be difficult for Angelina and Brad to have honeymooned in Africa, seeing as the couple isn't actually married.

Tabloids Would Like Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock to Start Dating ASAP

New year, new romance for Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds?
Hells to the no. But hey, they were in the same place, so why not run with it if you're a tabloid, right? Two of them clearly agreed this week.
They were also in a film called The Proposal. After they were seen "partying the night away" on New Year's Eve, the deal was totally sealed:

NO, IT'S NOT / NO, THEY'RE NOT: Don't believe the hype.

"They were playful," the onlooker says of Bullock and Reynolds who were "smiling the whole time and occasionally touching. What a hot - and quick - rebound!"
Their common bond? "I'm sure they've bonded over the breakups," a Reynolds insider reveals. "Going through a divorce is a unique thing to live through."
Yes. Only Ryan hasn't done so, and has only been separated for a month.
That isn't to say he's not free to move on, but we're guessing OK! and Us jumped the gun. Bullock's rep even says the duo are "nothing except good friends."
But hey, Reynolds' unnamed pal says the "chemistry" between the pair was obvious on the set of The Proposal. Consider this celebrity news site convinced.

Eduardo Cruz: Eva Longoria's New Man?

Unfortunately for Eva Longoria, Tony Parker allegedly moved on from his marriage before it was actually over.
According to a new report, though, the Desperate Housewives star has now opened up her bed to another mate, as well.
The New York Post quotes a source that says Longoria was spotted in her garage on December 24, wearing nothing but a short white robe. She was joined there by Penelope Cruz's brother, Eduardo.

Psst, it's time for a new shirt, Eva.

"He's there at least three nights out of every four - he turns up and he leaves the next morning," says an insider, who apparently has binoculars fixed on Longoria's house. "They are trying desperately to stay beneath the radar."
Eduardo Cruz makes a living as a pop singer and is 10 years younger than the actress. Her rep claims the two are just "friends."
No word, however, on whether this friendship has any benefits attached to it.

Cops May Actually Be Out to Get Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan loves making excuses, playing the victim and claiming everyone is out to get her. Incredibly, in this case, she may actually have an argument.
The Palm Desert Police Department was dead set on sticking it to her, reports say, after her altercation with Betty Ford Center staff member Dawn Holland.
Desperate to finger Lohan for something to get her arrested, police contacted the L.A. County probation office shortly after Lindsay and Dawn threw down.

Lindsay has been, and remains on probation for a 2007 DUI conviction. Failure to adhere to the terms of said probation have landed her in jail more than once.

Palm Desert police notified L.A. County Deputy Probation Officer Barbara Parker of the melee, imploring her to come and arrest Lohan for violating probation.
When Parker told the lieutenant it would be premature to take such drastic action, the local lieutenant began arguing with her and it got "extremely heated."
After the call, the lieutenant's boss called Parker to apologize.
The police in Palm Desert, which is in Riverside County, are still saying Lindsay violated her probation by committing battery and could be jailed as a result.
It's odd they're pushing it so hard, as the L.A. County Probation Department and a Beverly Hills judge are the ones who determine if a violation took place.
It's equally odd in light of Dawn Holland burying the hatchet with Lohan and publicly saying she won't cooperate with any attempt to prosecute the star.
The L.A. County Probation Department will not act unless she's convicted of battery in Riverside County, which is a stretch without Holland testifying.
Just the same, Palm Desert police insist that probation violations were committed and referred the case to prosecutors, saying in a statement:
"The investigation and facts in evidence has revealed other possible violations by Ms. Lohan relating to certain conditions of her probation terms."
It's unclear if police believe she engaged in substance abuse, which would also constitute a probation violation if established (it's happened before).
Law enforcement sources say she refused a breathalyzer. Lohan's camp says she asked for one, insisting she was clean, but was negged by Holland.
In any case, the facts are thin, and Lohan's lawyer believes the Palm Desert PD is out to get her client. We're thinking this time, she may be spot on.

Amber Portwood: Ruined By Teen Mom!

Amber Portwood is fearing for the loss of daughter Leah, and feeling like Teen Mom has ruined her. Or just life as a teen mom. Either way ... ruined!
When Ambs emerged from the Madison County jail in Anderson, Ind., after being arrested for felony battery, she visibly shaken by the experience.
"I cannot even imagine not seeing my little baby if I go back to jail," Amber Portwood told Life & Style in its cover story. "It scares me so bad."

RUINED: By being a teen mom ... or violent tendencies?

Putting the orange jumpsuit back on is a real possibility for Amber, who faces three felony charges for attacking Leah's father, Gary Shirley, on the MTV show.
If convicted, she could be sentenced to three years in prison and $10,000 in fines, which has her second-guessing her decision to ever appear on Teen Mom.
"I wouldn't have been in jail because nobody would have known about it," she says, blaming her quasi-fame for making the baby daddy beatdown a bigger deal.
Amber pleaded not guilty last week and was released after 24 hours in jail. Should she be sent back there, or do you think the experience will change her?

Confirmed: Lamar Odom & Khloe Kardashian Reality Show

In news absolutely no one could have seen coming when they got married in 2009, Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom have officially been given a reality show of their own.
Confirmed E! Executive Vice President Lisa Berger today: "Khloe and Lamar are such a dynamic couple that we just knew we had to give them their own series."
Season one of the series will consist of eight episodes and also feature the pair's quasi roommate, Rob Kardashian. You won't believe this, but cameras will capture him trying to break into the music industry.

"Lamar and I are so blessed to have been given such an amazing opportunity to take this journey together as a couple," Khloe told the network. "I know that it will only strengthen the bond we have and the love we share for each other."

Right. Because that's exactly what always happens to couples that star on reality television together.

A Royal Wedding Update: Details Emerge on Prince William/Kate Middleton Wedding

It's easily made our list of the top 11 stories to look out for in 2011: Prince William and Kate Middleton will get married in Westminster Abbey on April 29.
In what's sure to be the first of many press releases issued by the Palace, Royal authorities have revealed a number of new details regarding the nuptials. They include:

• Middleton will travel to the locale via car in a procession that will include London's Mall, Horse Guards Parade, Whitehall and Parliament Square.
• The service itself will begin at 11 a.m. 

• Three different clergymen will take part in the ceremony: the Dean of Westminster will conduct the service, the Archbishop of Canterbury will preside over the vows, the Bishop of London will give the address.
• Following the ceremony, William and Kate will piss off Lea Michele and return to Buckingham Palace via horse-drawn carriage.
• Queen Elizabeth will host a reception, which will be followed by a Prince Charles-hosted dinner.

JWoww Nude Photos: Blocked By Court Order!

Jersey Shore star JWoww has gone to court to block her ex, Tom Lippolis from releasing any nude photographs of her, according to new reports.
The nude photos show JWoww (real name Jenni Farley) both before and after she had breast augmentation (the second time) and liposuction. Yikes.
JWoww filed an Order To Show Cause in a Long Island court in a bid to stop her former lover and manager from cashing in on any such pics.

Wait ... JWoww had plastic surgery?!

However, Lippolis’ lawyer, Jeffery I. Baum, believes that the MTV siren has no right to block his client doing with the JWoww nude photos as he pleases.
His rationale: They were taken on his cell phone with her consent.
“She is trying to block him from distributing the images and is trying to get the court to compel arbitration in the case," he said, adding he will object.
“In return we have filed to ask the judge to dismiss her order because the images belong to my client and were taken with Miss Farley’s consent."
“We believe they represent no irreparable harm to her and Mr. Lippolis should not be precluded from doing what he wants with them.”
JWoww reportedly fears the release of the images because they show she has had considerable plastic surgery, including liposuction.
She did turn down Playboy and its $400,000 offer last year.
“She is mortified that the photographs might get out there now that she has established herself as a reality star," reports a source.
“The photographs really show how much work she had done and she looks great in the ‘after shots’ after she healed from surgery."
“It is the ‘before shots’ that she is really worried about at this point ... unfortunately her relationship with Tom did not pan-out.”
Lippolis is suing JWoww, claiming that she had stiffed him out of cash after he managed her for two seasons of the hit show.
That case is ongoing. JWoww is now dating Roger Williams.

Camille Grammer: Leaving The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

Camille Grammer may need every penny of that $50 million divorce settlement. The controversial reality star is reportedly out of a job.
The Hollywood Reporter simply states that Grammer won't return for season two of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Will Camille Grammer take the ratings for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills with her?

Few details have been released, but sources say Camille is displeased with the way she's been portrayed on the show, while friends claim she only ever did it because her ex-husband pushed the idea on her.
Aside from her VERY public split from Kelsey Grammer, Camile has come under for her general behavior on the show.
She has four nannies for two children; sees a real-life medium named Allison Dubois; and feuds openly with co-star Kyle Richards. Of course, as Danielle Staub proved, scandals sell.
We set the odds of Camille landing a spin-off at 1:100.

Ashley Harlan: Engaged to Ben Roethlisberger for Some Reason!

Ben Roethlisberger has managed to find a woman more attracted to his stat sheet than his rap sheet: Ashley Harlan has agreed to marry Pittsburth Steelers quarterback.
The engagement has been confirmed by The New Castle News, Harlan's hometown paper. It states that the proposal took place over Christmas and that Roethlisberger's agent has advised his client not to discuss his personal life with the media.

We can understand why.

On two occasions over the last few years, Roethlisberger has been accused of sexual assault. He's admitted that he used poor judgment, but says he never forced anyone to have sex against her will. No charges were ever brought about the All-Pro, but the NFL suspended him for a quarter of this season.

Harlan was a volleyball, basketball and softball star at Laurel High School. She played softball at St. Francis University of Loretto and earned a Master’s in physician assistant science in 2009.

She works in cardiac surgery department of Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh.

T.I. Reprimanded in Prison After Tiny Attempts to Provide Hand Relief

Oft-incarcerated rapper T.I. got in serious trouble with prison officials after guards caught the famous inmate taking things too far during a visit from the wife.
TMZ reports and T.I.'s wife Tiny (a.k.a. Tameka Cottle) confirms that they were in a room alone together at the Arkansas State Prison when she made like MJ.
We're saying she started to beat it. It being him.

BEST VISIT EVER: Unfortunately for T.I., it was soon cut short by pesky prison guards. No word if she also baked him a cake with a file inside.

According to state prison guidelines, inmates are allowed to kiss and embrace at the beginning and at the end of a visit as well as hold hands in there.
However, "the inmate’s hands must remain in plain view of staff at all times." Same goes for the visitors. In his pants doesn't cut it apparently.
Tiny confirms that as a result of this stroke of bad luck, T.I. was sent to a  "Special Housing Unit" consisting of more security and less freedom.
No wonder T.I.'s so sick of jail. Peeps are so uptight there. Tiny hopes to visit him again soon, even if she has to keep her right hand to herself.

Mel Gibson to Judge: Oksana is Malicious!

Incredibly, Oksana Grigorieva's claims that Mel Gibson beat her during sex didn't sit well with the star. Now he's moving to have her stripped of custody, STAT.
Mel's lawyer went to court for an emergency hearing Friday, asking the judge to strip the "malicious" Oksana Grigorieva of custody of baby Lucia ASAP.
Oksana claimed earlier in the week that Mel beat her during sex to get aroused. Mel and his lawyers were outraged at the claim - and that it got out.

Mel accuses Oksana's camp of leaking confidential info.

Mel's family lawyer, Stephen Kolodny, asked Judge Scott Gordon to strip custody from Oksana on grounds she acted maliciously by allegedly leaking the story.
The claim about Mel stems from a court deposition that was supposed to be kept confidential and hasn't been confirmed. It's unclear how the report got out.
Kolodny also argued many allegations Oksana made in her deposition have never been made before and is a belated attempt to smear Mel and harm Lucia.
The judge scheduled a full hearing for next month.

Oksana Grigorieva: Mel Gibson Beat Me During Sex

We'll call out Mel Gibson's anger issues and criticize him for derogatory words about Jews and women, but words don't mean he actually hit anyone.
The claims by Oksana Grigorieva to that effect keep getting more and more absurd, too, rapidly diminishing whatever credibility she once enjoyed.
Her latest? An explosive allegation under oath that she never before made - that Mel Gibson beat her during sex, and needed to hit her to ... well ...

SHADY CHARACTERS: Troubled as Mel is, his ex may be lying up a storm.

During Oksana's deposition in her custody war with Mel, she testified that Mel had issues "performing" and the way he got aroused was to beat her.
The claim is as odd as it is shocking, since we're told Oksana never uttered a word about such violence in her multiple interviews with authorities.
Oksana claimed that Mel struck her on January 6, but there is no other allegation of physical violence in the court file or with law enforcement.
Allow us to call BS on Oksana.

Deena Nicole Cortese Dishes on Jersey Shore Season, Becoming Part of the Family

As Pauly D told THG, Deena Nicole Cortese will be shaking things up on Jersey Shore. The Garden State native makes her debut on tonight's Season 3 premiere.
In a new interview with TV Guide, the new girl in "the family" dishes on BFF Snooki, all of the drama, why her parents were all for her joining the show and more:
Excerpts from Deena's Q&A below ...

CLASS IN A GLASS: That's Deena Nicole Cortese for you.

On joining the cast: "I love the show and wanted to do it because I go down to the shore all the time, and I'm like 35 minutes from Seaside. When Snooks asked me to come down, I was like, 'Yeah, let's do this. I'm down.'"
On being the new girl: "I was a little nervous, but I wanted to get to know everyone and I was excited. I was going to try to get to know everyone and be myself. I came in, they really opened their lives to me and it was awesome."
On her parents' take: "They think it's hysterical and they're very supportive of me. I told them every single thing from back-to-front about what I did, and they're still supportive. We're a strong Italian family. They support me through thick or thin."
On the tension this season: "I think this season really brought everyone back together as a family. It was a really fun season, and we had such a good time. There's so many huge things that happen this season. I think it tops the last one."
On getting sucked into the drama: "In the beginning I did, especially the first night, because I think when I came in with Snooki, Sammi didn't know what to think about me. I think she was a little thrown off. [There] was a lot of tension."
On the men of Jersey Shore: "They look out for us rather than try and hook up with us. I was very close with Pauly. Our personalities are so much alike. We like to have a good time. He's loud, he's outgoing and just says what's on his mind."
On her embarrassing moments: "Accidentally taking off my bathing suit bottom. I didn't realize I had taken it down with my skirt because I was so drunk. I definitely regret doing that, but there's nothing I can do but laugh at this point.

Angelina Pivarnick Seeks Reality Show, Attempts to Retain Z-List Status

Having been banished from Jersey Shore twice in as many seasons, the exiled Angelina Pivarnick is now gearing up for her own reality TV show.
Don't hold your breath there, girlfriend.
After her single “I’m Hot” inexplicably failed to gain any fans in the music world, she’s grappling to stay in the limelight by any means necessary.

Desperate times call for desperate fame whores.

She’s even in talks with her sworn enemy, Kerry Schwartz of VH1’s Frank the Entertainer in a Basement Affair to star in a reality new series together.
Somehow, we don't see it happening. Just a hunch.
The two enemies were even scheduled for a celebrity boxing match at the Trump Taj Mahal Casino in Atlantic City but never made it into the ring.
They both were involved in separate altercations before their bout, of course. Aside from bar fights, this may be the last time you hear of either.

Miley Cyrus Hacker: Arrested!

Another scandal has broken out around Miley Cyrus. This time, though, the controversial singer is not at the center of it.
A 21-year old named Josh Holly was arrested in Nashville last week and charged with possession of unauthorized credit card numbers. He also admitted to hacking into Miley's email account in 2007.

According court documents, FBI Agent Victor Rodriguez writes that Holly said he broke into Cyrus' MySpace account and obtained photos from her Gmail, posting them on a site frequented by other hackers.
It's unclear to which pictures of Miley this admission refers, but the most recent set of leaked images was clearly snapped a few years ago.
Rodriguez states in the affidavit that Holly told him he often hacked into the email and social networking accounts of celebrities to help with his job sending spam for commercial companies. This job paid the loser $110,000 between November 2007 and July 2008.
"He confirmed that he was the person who had obtained data from Miley Cyrus' MySpace without authorization," Rodriguez writes. "He often used accounts belonging to celebrities because of the high volume of Internet traffic they attracted."
This spammer is due in court for a January 12 hearing to deal with the aforementioned credit card allegations. Authorities have not yet decided whether or not to tack on charges against him for these online hacks.

Tiffany Pollard!

Tiffany Pollard is making a comeback, folks. The former reality star and giant-breasted woman is in the news today for three reasons:

1. She covers the latest issue of Bleed.
2. She turns 29.
3. She's hilarious.

Pollard hasn't done much since she went to work on VH1 in 2009, but here's hoping this isn't the last time we write about her. Possessing as much talent as Kim Kardashian, New York is one sex tape away from making it big! She's awaiting your birthday wishes.

Holly Madison on Hugh Hefner Engagement: Mixed, Complicated Feelings

In 2008, Holly Madison was the busty blonde rumored to be marrying Hugh Hefner.
Fast forward a couple years, though, and Crystal Harris is the young model engaged to the Playboy founder. How did Madison react to that news when she found out?
"I [was] very surprised," Holly tells E! News. "I have a lot of different feelings on it. I don't just feel one way. I kind of didn't want to put a generic statement out there like 'Congratulations!' because I felt everyone would see through that."

So, what did Madison do? She visited Hef and Harris at the Playboy Mansion this week - with cameras from her reality show in tow, of course.

"I wanted to see him and Crystal and tell everybody face-to-face how I felt. It went very well," she said. "I had a good day."

But did Hefner make a good choice? Who would you rather give it to for the rest of your life?

Katy Perry to Appear on How I Met Your Mother

Katy Perry is about to make like Spencer Pratt, Heidi Montag, Kim Kardashian, Nicole Scherzinger, Mandy Moore and Britney Spears.
As a How I Met Your Mother guest star, that is.
The singer will be appearing on the CBS sitcom in an episode titled "Oh Honey" to air later this spring, the network announced today.

Katy celebrates her two People's Choice Awards last night.

Perry will play another of Ted's (Josh Radnor) love interest and also the cousin of Zoey (Jennifer Morrison) on the upcoming episode.
Because of her naivete, the gang calls her "Honey."
As long as they don't make any comments about Katy Perry with no makeup. That just has the potential for hurt feelings right there.

Father of Hank Baskett Shoots Down Kendra Divorce Talk

In a startling turns of events, news broken by In Touch Weekly a couple days ago has been disproven by a reliable source.
Speaking to Radar Online, the father of Hask Baskett says his son and Kendra Wilkinson are NOT getting a divorce. In fact, Hank's dad shoots down the rumor as "bunch of crap!"
At least we assume he was talking about the rumor. He may have been referring to Baskett's NFL career.

Another source, meanwhile, tells the site that any break-up talk "is a joke. There are no plans on getting a divorce... They're going to be out and about at events in Los Angeles" in the near future.

And why shouldn't they be? Neither Hank nor Kendra has anything else to do.

JWoww Nude Photos: Blocked By Court Order!

Jersey Shore star JWoww has gone to court to block her ex, Tom Lippolis from releasing any nude photographs of her, according to new reports.
The nude photos show JWoww (real name Jenni Farley) both before and after she had breast augmentation (the second time) and liposuction. Yikes.
JWoww filed an Order To Show Cause in a Long Island court in a bid to stop her former lover and manager from cashing in on any such pics.

Wait ... JWoww had plastic surgery?!

However, Lippolis’ lawyer, Jeffery I. Baum, believes that the MTV siren has no right to block his client doing with the JWoww nude photos as he pleases.
His rationale: They were taken on his cell phone with her consent.
“She is trying to block him from distributing the images and is trying to get the court to compel arbitration in the case," he said, adding he will object.
“In return we have filed to ask the judge to dismiss her order because the images belong to my client and were taken with Miss Farley’s consent."
“We believe they represent no irreparable harm to her and Mr. Lippolis should not be precluded from doing what he wants with them.”
JWoww reportedly fears the release of the images because they show she has had considerable plastic surgery, including liposuction.
She did turn down Playboy and its $400,000 offer last year.
“She is mortified that the photographs might get out there now that she has established herself as a reality star," reports a source.
“The photographs really show how much work she had done and she looks great in the ‘after shots’ after she healed from surgery."
“It is the ‘before shots’ that she is really worried about at this point ... unfortunately her relationship with Tom did not pan-out.”
Lippolis is suing JWoww, claiming that she had stiffed him out of cash after he managed her for two seasons of the hit show.
That case is ongoing. JWoww is now dating Roger Williams.
