Rielle Hunter Settles on Her First TV Interview

Nothing but the best for John Edwards' mistress, Rielle Hunter. Homegirl has decided who she wants her first television interview to be done with, and obviously she went for the queen, Oprah. The interview will take place in Rielle's Charlotte, North Carolina home and will most likely air during May sweeps.  An "insider" spoke to The National Enquirer about the interview and said, "She's excited about giving her account of how she met John, how the affair began and what's in store for her ...

Like a Pack of Wild Animals

Sandra Bullock has been in the tabloids the past month more than I recall her being in them in the history of her career, and so that means she's officially the paparazzi's meal ticket. Sandy and a friend were trying to leave a Beverly Hills home last night and were completely mobbed by photographers. She was covered entirely in what looked like tapestries that she got at a Phish show, but you know that TMZ set is relentless. Normally I can't complain about invasive "reporting" or whatever you want ...

Quotables

“Look, I eat really well and I work out, but I also indulge when I want to. You’re not taking away my coffee or my dairy or my glass of wine because I’d be devastated. My advice: just stop eating shit every day.” - Jennifer Aniston on how she does and doesn't diet in Harper’s Bazaar UK...

Don’t Play With Sir Anthony

Rumors have been circulating that Sir Anthony Hopkins is pulling some straight-up Mariah Carey diva bullshit on the set of Thor and apparently they are so far from the truth that Sir Anthony is considering taking legal action to stop them dead in their tracks. Last week people were saying that Sir Anthony was going after his co-star, Chris Hemsworth, criticizing him and his acting ability on set. While it probably wouldn't hurt anyone to get pointers from a living legend, these rumblings were considered to be a "horrific...

Nothing Gold Can Stay

This is a horrible way to start my day with you, dear readers. I hate to tell you this, but Selena Gomez and Nick Jonas AKA Sick AKA Nelena are no longer an item. According to a source who spoke to People, anyway. Has this been the hardest news week ever or what? The source says that the 17-year olds split because of their hectic work schedules. With Selena in Europe all summer making a film and the JoBros sweeping the globe with another one of their hard-hitting and non-stop tours, there just wont be time for the two to spend time together. They went on to tell the magazine, "it's evident to everyone that they will always have a super strong connection." Obviously. If Selena and Nick can...

Jennifer Garner’s Stalker Got Sent to The Loony Bin

We hear a lot about how often celebrity stalking is not taken seriously enough, but sometimes we hear stories of justice being served. Steven Richard Burky, the man who was found guilty on charges of stalking Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, has been sent to live in a mental institution. From Radar Online: "Steven Richard Burky, pleaded no contest today to two counts of felony stalking. Judge Katherine Mader then found him not guilty by reason of insanity and sentenced him to Patton State Hospi...

Heidi Montag is More Desirable Than Lindsay Lohan

Although it occasionally seems as though things might be improving for Lindsay Lohan, all you have to do is ask around Hollywood and you'll still find out that she's very much persona non grata. Rob Shuter from PopEater experienced this first hand while gossiping with a casting director this week. According to Rob, the CD said the following about LL: "Lindsay hasn't worked for a long time, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. It's very hard to get her insurance and no studio or director is going to hire her without it. ...

Matt Damon is Going to Guest Star on 30 Rock

Late last year Tina Fey mentioned in an interview that Matt Damon was one of her top picks for a potential 30 Rock guest spot. Of course upon hearing this, Matt Damon was not only down to grant Tina her wish, he seemed almost desperate to give the collaboration a shot, saying at the time, “I would do [30 Rock] in a heartbeat if they asked me to come on. She should call my people — or even better me. Or I could call her. Let’s make this happen.” Then today it was announced that it will...

Wash, Rinse, Repeat

We're on to Phase 3 of the now-standard Hollywood sex scandal: Rehab! Jesse James' rep spoke exclusively to People Magazine and said, "Jesse checked himself into a treatment facility to deal with personal issues. He realized that this time was crucial to help himself, help his family and help save his marriage." The rep also stated that attending rehab was Jesse's own idea. I would imagine that that's probably because his wife's not even talking to him. We've seen David Duchovny, Tiger Woods and Russell Brand head to treatment...

We Need To Back Off Of Michelle ‘Bombsell’ McGee

Michelle "Bombsell" McGee has been called a lot of names recently for being the first woman to come out and say that she was sleeping with Sandra Bullock's husband Jesse James, but a "bad businesswoman" will not be one of them! The tattoo model's website launched today (NSFW, but MichelleBombshell.com) and in addition to $9.95 "sneak-a-peek" at the naughty goodies that are yet to come, there's also a statement that was posted by her webmaster: "To all the people that think Michelle planned ...

Dr. James Franco?

James Franco has studied film at NYU, got his BA at UCLA, just picked up an MFA at Columbia and now he's going for his PhD. The Yale Herald reported this week that James has been accepted in to their English PhD program. And to think that just last year this guy was doing stints on soap operas! Wow! What a year! From The Yale Herald: Our sources tell us he'll be here starting in September, though lucky Yalies may see him around campus in the coming weeks for admitted students events. Fran...
