Rachelle vs. Summit: Twilight Battle Goes to the Lawyers

rachelle-turquoise Wendie's done a great job of covering the the craziness surrounding Rachelle LeFevre getting the boot from New Moon because of scheduling conflicts. But don't expect to hear any more poison-tongued statements from either camp: they're taking it to their lawyers. In short, Lefevre wants her money. Summit is arguing she's due nothing because the studio insists she's in breach of contract for signing on for the indie flick Barney's Version. "Rachelle's contract says she's allowed to do smaller projects like Barney's Version,...

Aunt Jodi and Uncle Kevin Are Still Talking

As TLC prepares to air the new episode of Jon & Kate on Monday, the talk shows and the morning shows are scrambling to turn the excitement into ratings, and, as such, Uncle Kevin and Aunt Jodi are back on TV to complain. This time, though, they're very clear about blaming TLC rather than Kate or Jon. They say they're on TV "for the children," and they want a politician "with a heart for children" to step up and introduce legislation to prevent the kids from being filmed so often. I'm kind of bored of all this Jodi and Kevin nonsense. These kids are just fine -- as fine as any young children in the middle of their parents' divorce can be. Both their parents love them and spend time with them, and they have opportunities in life they never would have had if it weren't for the show's success. What do you guys think? Are Jodi and Kevin doing this for the kids, or are they just trying to reclaim the spotlight they lost when Kate kicked them off the show? /> As TLC prepares to air the new episode of Jon & Kate on Monday, the talk shows and the morning shows are scrambling to turn the excitement into ratings, and, as such, Uncle Kevin and Aunt Jodi are back on TV to complain.

Zack Morris Isn’t Afraid of Screech

markpaul_gosselaar I'm loving this interview Newsweek did with Mark-Paul Gosselaar. They ask him about rumors that Dustin Diamond is writing a tell-all about his days on Saved by the Bell. Here's how Mark responded: What is he going to say? We were banging groupies at 14? I can't wait to read his book, because I don't have a memory of a lot of the shows. Maybe it was because I was doing lines off of the audience members' asses. I'm sure he's going to write something crazy like that. The truth is?the reason why ...

Ohhhhhhh Shit: Eminem STRIKES BACK at Mariah

Damn, I gotta admit this is a super-hot track. Probably the most awesome diss track I've ever heard. In fairness, Mariah started it, with her "Obsessed" song and the video that clearly targeted Em. But Eminem is following suit, with a full-length diss track called "The Warning." He talks some serious smack about Mariah -- calling her a whore, a liar and an alcoholic -- and threatens to release naked photos of her if she denies anything he says in the track. To cap it all off, he samples some Mariah shit off what I think is a studio session they did together. Oh, and he calls Nick Cannon a "faggot." Lovely, just lovely. Seriously, though, love him or hate him -- you gotta admit Em's a genius. This is a truly brilliant diss track. Remind me never to date a rapper. /> Damn, I gotta admit this is a super-hot track.

The Return of Jon & Kate!!!

Is everyone SO EXCITED for the bloody mess that will (hopefully!) be the return of Jon & Kate Plus 8 to TLC on Monday? I KNOW I AM. There's a preview clip from E! above. Do you LOVE the body language or WHAT?? Says the President of TLC: "“You’ll see Jon struggle in the kitchen trying to make pizza for his kids. You’ll see what its like when Kate has to put a tent up for the first time for her kids, who love to camp in their backyard. And she gets a little advice from her daughter who doesn’t think she does it quite as well as dad.” And as to whether or not we'll get to see Jon running around Manhattan with his new barely-legal harem? “As far as new people and places that may be cycling into Jon and Kate’s lives, we’re taking it on a case-by-case basis,” she says. Ooooh, don't let us down, TLC!! DRAMA! DRAMA! DRAMA. /> Is everyone SO EXCITED for the bloody mess that will (hopefully!) be the return of Jon & Kate Plus 8 to TLC on Monday? I KNOW I AM.

Demi Lovato Rules the Charts, Jordin Sparks Fails to Light It Up

Demi Lovato at Hannah Montana Premiere Ahhh, my little Demi-goddess Lovato released another hit album, with Here We Go Again selling 108K copies and topping the Billboard charts. (Michael Jackson's Number Ones sold more copies, but it's ineligible for the charts because it's an older album.) Meanwhile, Jordin Sparks' Battlefield sold a dismal 48,000 copies. Has anyone heard the single off that album? It's terrible. If that's what they released as the first single, I can't even imagine the crap that's on the rest of that album. No sweat off my back. I'm still angr...

How High Is Kristen Stewart?

Scale of 1-10, guys, with 1 being your local Mormon missionary and 10 being your really really high local Mormon missionary. This isn't weed high, either. Stoned Kristen is much more bored-looking and far less reactive. This is something more ... interesting than that. So let's make that the second part of this game. First: How high is Kristen Stewart? And second: What's she on? (Combo guesses are allowed.) /> Scale of 1-10, guys, with 1 being your local Mormon missionary and 10 being your really really high local Mormon missionary.

In Case You Missed La Lohan’s Crazy Breakdown

Lindsay Lohan I can't believe I just found this video this afternoon. Where the hell were you guys on this?? I should have had a minimum of 10 emails alerting me to this FANTASTIC clip that TMZ posted yesterday morning. Basically, Lindsay Lohan was waiting outside Samantha Ronson's house at five in the morning, and when Sam came home she totally lost her shit. The paps got it all on tape. Sam is, of course, totally sober and sane, and Lindsay is wailing and crazy and obviously totally high. Here's a basic trans...

DEA Raids Dr. Conrad Murray’s Las Vegas Office

GV I'm loving this shot of a DEA officer walking out of Dr. Murray's office with folders. Why the mask and sunglasses? I betcha this guy works undercover when he's not raiding the offices of drug-peddling doctors. Dr. Murray is the personal physician who was with Michael Jackson when he died. The DEA and the Las Vegas PD descending on his office today. They're investigating him in connection with Michael Jackson's death. Last week, they raided his Houston clinic. I'm seriously kind of turned on ...

Your Daily Gosselin

Jon Gosselin The prodigal son returns! Jon Gosselin and his rapidly expanding belly dragged their hungover selves back to Wernersville today, where Jon promptly lit up a cigarette and did his best impression of the Loch Ness monster for the paparazzi. This guy, I'll tell ya. All class. I'm sure Kate is BEYOND DELIGHTED that he's smoking cigarettes outside the house while he's not busy traipsing around the world sucking face with every recent college grad who'll have him. This is exactly what she had planne...

Ryan Reynolds and ScarJo: Trouble in Paradise???

57979560scarlett_johansson_comicon728200981051pm Oooh, I hope so!!! I don't know why I despise this couple so. The angsty 13-year-old in me who worships Alanis Morissette is still angry on her behalf. Honestly, I'm sure Alanis has completely moved on with her life and doesn't give a damn what happens between Ryan and Scarlett Johansson, but I'm like "BREAK UP! BREAK UP! BREAK UP!" I also get really bitter about people who just stumble into the love of their lives and marry them after 20 seconds of dating and live happily ever after (anyone reme...
