Bristol Palin is a Dancing With the Stars Finalist; Brandy Eliminated in Stunner!

WTF. There's no other intro we can muster right now.
It's not anything new that Dancing With the Stars is more about popular support than technical merit, especially with mediocre, middle of the pack performers. But at some point, you'd assume the better dancers would be rewarded.
You'd assume wrong, apparently. Bristol Palin will be joining Jennifer Grey and Kyle Massey in next week's finals, with a deserving Brandy on the sidelines.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Brandy Pic
Somehow, Brandy and Maks will be watching, not dancing in the finals.
No sooner had we talked about how Palin's run personally irked Maksim Chmerkovskiy than he and Brandy got the boot Tuesday, despite great dancing Monday.
A record-high number of votes made it happen, too.
"One thing that I love, for my family, the choice they made to come to this country," said Ukrainian-born Maks, taking the high road, "the fact that people vote and voices count. I love that this show represents that, the people's choice."
"I don't regret a second of the last five years of my being on the show and definitely not a second of me being on this season. It's been an amazing journey."
Uhhnh, did Maks just pseudo-quit Dancing With the Stars?

Evelyn Lozada and Chad Ochocinco: Engaged!

Forget Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson.
Sorry, Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo.
Move over, Prince William and Kate Middleton.
The biggest engagement news of the celebrity world this week comes from the NFL: Chad Ochocinco has popped the proverbial question to Evelyn Lozada - and she's said yes!

Viewers of VH1's Basketball Wives may be familiar with Lozado, who flew to Cincinnati yesterday and received the shock of a lifetime from her boyfriend of four months. Tweeted the reality star of her incomprehensibly large ring:
"I'm no rabbit but 10 carats looks good on me!! Let the hating begin."
You heard her ladies...

Source: Jake Gyllenhaal on "Cloud Nine" Over Taylor Swift, Planning Rendezvous in Paris

Reports indicate that Taylor Swift is more serious about her career than Jake Gyllenhaal.
But the same can't be said about the actor's feelings regarding this young singer. According to Hollywood Life sources, Jake has dated since his split with Reese Witherspoon, but "no one has put a smile on his face like Taylor. He’s really on cloud nine."

Jake Gyllenhaal, Taylor
Call them Swiftenhaal or Gyllenwift. Just don't call Taylor and Jake a casual couple any longer.
Following casual dates in NYC and California, things between Swiftenhaal will allegedly heat up this December, as insiders claim: “The two are planning to spend the holidays together. And Jake plans to meet Taylor in Paris at the beginning of the new year, where she’ll be performing.”

Eva Longoria & Tony Parker: Divorce Rumor Untrue!

Less than an hour ago, we reported that Eva Longoria and Tony Parker were splitting after three years of marriage, and that Tony filed for divorce in Texas.
Now her rep says it's completely false!
Two clerks at the Bexar County Courthouse in Texas told TMZ the case was filed and sealed by a family law judge, but Eva's rep says Tony did not file.
The San Antonio Spurs star does not even have a divorce lawyer, she says, and another clerk now says no such divorce case has crossed her desk.

Tony and Eva Photo
Eva Longoria (no longer Parker) is back on the market!
The Desperate Housewives actress and the San Antonio Spurs star married back in July 2007, and has his initials and jersey number tattooed on her body.
Longoria was to appear at the taping of Anderson Cooper's CNN Heroes of 2010 special this weekend, but canceled, sparking rumors something was up.
Fortunately, it looks like the rumors, however they started, simply spiraled out of control and people jumped the gun. Hopefully, they're happy as ever!

Coming to MTV: Teen Mom 2!

Move over, Maci Bookout. Step aside, Catelynn Lowell. Time to make room, Farrah Abraham. Cool your jets, Amber Portwood. Please don't hurt us.
MTV will premiere Teen Mom 2, a sequel to the smash hit reality show, on Tuesday, January 11. Get ready for so much more baby-raising drama.
"Teen Mom 2 is shooting right now," the show's executive producer, Morgan J. Freeman, told USA Today, confirming the sequel's debut on MTV.

Teen Mom Cast
The Teen Mom cast became pseudo-celebrities after their trials and tribulations aired this year. Dr. Drew has nothing to do with this, he's just in the photo.
Who are the new girls? Although the cast list hasn't yet been revealed, the featured young women were selected from the current cast of 16 and Pregnant.
As for original cast members Maci Bookout, Catelynn Lowell, Farrah Abraham and Amber Portwood, running it back for a new season, Freeman wasn't sure.
"We're doing some continuous-type shooting with the original [cast] but nothing's been announced yet about what we'll do with that," the producer said.

Michaela Wallace Interview: A Chat with Justin Bieber's Girlfriend.

I love Justin Bieber because he has great music that I can relate to, and it doesn't hurt that he's really hot!
Michaela Wallace is certainly not the only 14-year old with this opinion. But she is the only 14-year old with a song titled "Justin Bieber's Girlfriend," one with a video that has gone viral and turned Wallace into an online sensation.

Michaela Wallace PhotoAdorable in Glasses
The young singer spoke to Celebuzz this week about her single and her hopes for a successful music career. Might we have a female version of Justin on our hands?
How long has been involved with music?
I have been singing as long as I can remember. Music has always been a passion of mine and part of my life. In church, at school or just on a regular day when I disappear into my room for some one-on-one time with my guitar. I have been playing the piano since I seven years old and playing the guitar since I was ten.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy Determined to Oust Bristol Palin on Dancing With the Stars

Maksim Chmerkovskiy may be surly, blunt, critical and not politically correct, but it's just because he's a serious competitor who wants to win. Period.
Despite being demonstrably outclassed by the field week in and week out, Bristol Palin is still waltzing and spinning. Which has Maks' head spinning.
The fact that Bristol the Pistol is even in the top four on Dancing With the Stars has reportedly rankled Chmerkovskiy, who's partnered with Brandy.

Bristol the Pistol PalinBrandy and Maks Pic
Bristol Palin's surprisingly long stint on Dancing With the Stars has captivated millions. Do not court Maksim Chmerkovskiy among those millions.
“Maksim is very emotional and takes this show very seriously, if you haven’t already seen. He really wants to win,” a source says of the Ukrainian pro.
“He works extremely hard and finds it depressing when people he thinks aren’t worthy of their current position get further then they possibly should.”
He and Brandy are both so competitive and hungry, tensions often rise between them - and they're allies. Imagine how he feels about Bristol Palin.

Mel Gibson: Oksana Grigorieva Injured Herself!

Mel Gibson's latest defense against allegations that he battered his now-ex, Oksana Grigorieva? That the crazy chick actually did that to herself. Seriously.
Oksana claims Mel scratched and bruised her January 6, which he denies, admitting only that he slapped her once, not hard, to protect their daughter.
As for how she appeared injured in photos taken after the fact?

'SanaStinky Mel
SOMETHING'S FISHY: Mel says it's Oksana's story.
Mady Shany, Oksana's facialist, says in a declaration to the court that on January 12, Grigorieva came in for a facial, and she noted, "I noticed there were scratches and bruises around her eyes and on her forehead."
Shany says Oksana told her Mel "punched her and threw her on the bed while she had the baby in her arms." But was she lying about the abuse?
In Mel's declaration, he says Oksana is unstable and "suffers from Trichotillomania, an impulse control disorder characterized by the repeated urge to pull, and pulling, out ones own hair, eyelashes, eyebrows and other body hair."

Lindsay Lohan to Lose Linda Lovelace Role?

Is Lindsay Lohan on the verge of losing her role as Linda Lovelace in Inferno? Producers have been patient, but say there's definitely a Plan B in the works.
Director Matthew Wilder has stood by Lindsay through her legal woes, waiting for her to star as the legendary porn star. But he's exploring all options.
After all, Lohan will be in rehab at least until January 3 per court order, and it's unclear if she'll be rushing back to work even when she does get out.

Sober Living
Will Lindsay's Linda Lovelace biopic role be there when she gets out?
"We have been through a lot here, and although she is still our number one choice - we do have a Plan B if she cannot film Inferno," Wilder said.
"We have had a great response from other people who really want the part too. But we will wait until Lindsay has fulfilled all of her obligations."
Lohan's failed drug test in September forced Wilder and his producers to make plans beyond Lohan, who has not signed a binding contract, either.

Parents of Kate Middleton on Prince William Engagement: Awesome!

Following many years of dating, and countless misleading tabloid cover stories, Kate Middleton and Prince William announced their engagement this week.
How do the former's parents feel about their daughter becoming an official part of the royal family in 2011? Pretty darn great!
"I would just like to say that Carole and I are absolutely delighted by today's announcement and thrilled by the prospect of a wedding sometime next year," said father Michael Middleton. "They make a lovely couple. They're great fun to be with and we've had a lot of laughs together. We wish them every happiness for the future."

Recently EngagedCatherine Middleton
The Wate-ing Game: William and Kate have made their love official.
William and Kate (who will be referred to as "Catherine" going forward) also met with the press this morning. At the media session, the Prince said he proposed with his mother's engagement ring (SEE IT BELOW).
"It is very special to me," William said. "It was my way to make sure my mother did not miss out on today and the excitement that we are going to spend the rest of our lives together."
Forgive the THG staff, readers. It just got awfully dusty in our offices. Please, give us a moment...
The date has FINALLY been set for the wedding of Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, at least if you're inclined to believe anonymous Radar Online sources.
For what it's worth, the alleged date is in early December.
The former Simple Life star and her rocker fiancee are set to tie the knot before a star-studded guest list at the Beverly Hills home of Nicole's proud dad.

Nicole, Harlow and Joel
Are Nicole and Joel (with Harlow) about to make it official?
"Christmas has always been about family and faith for Nicole and Joel, so there is not better time of the year for them to wed," an insider told the site.
While the super-secret details of theirs nuptials have not yet been released, close pal Christina Aguilera and Samantha Ronson are planning to attend.

Invited to Thanksgiving: Taylor Swift and Beyonce!

Will you be inviting Taylor Swift to Thanksgiving this year?
On the night of November 25, the singer will be featured on an NBC special, as she belts out renditions of “Mine,” “Sparks Fly,” “Story of Us,” “Enchanted,” and “Speak Now" from various locations. One of them will be a rooftop in NYC, as previewed in the rehearsal photo here:

Rooftop Singer
This program will treat viewers to a behind-the-scenes look at Swift’s world, from recording in the studio to signings autographs for fans to avoiding paparazzi on the streets.
But the special will also have some serious competition: ABC is planning a Beyonce feature for the same night. It will include appearances by Jay-Z and Kanye West and is previewed below: Which of these singers will you invite over for the holiday?

Emma Watson Premiere Fashion: What's Her Best Look?

While readers continue to debate whether Emma Watson looks better with short or long hair, the movie star has given fans more to debate.
Over the last few days, the actress graced the red carpet at a pair of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows premieres; first in London and then, last night, in New York City.
Watson donned a couple contrasting dresses for the events, rocking a sheer, short, sexy outfit in Great Britain and then changing into a more conservative, longer gown when she flew across the Atlantic. Compare the looks below:

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt Renew Wedding Vows, World Groans

This time it's not for reality TV, just reality. Or something. Yeah, right.
Weeks after confessing they faked their divorce proceedings, and days after calling his own made-for-TV Hills marriage ceremony a contrived nightmare, Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag have said "I do" in their first "real" wedding.
Third time's the charm, right?

I Now Pronounce You ...Spencer, Heidi Renew Vows
WEDDINGS PAST AND PRESENT: This time, Speidi swears, it's legit.
Before The Hills aired their union to end its fifth season in the spring of 2009, the couple staged a bogus wedding in Cabo the previous winter. So this is #3.
Finally, the gruesome twosome says, it was for love.
"It's just me and my bride on a little secret beach with nobody else, and it's just about her," Spencer Pratt told ET of their Sunday vow renewal. "Last time it was about everything else, it was about drama, it was about ratings."
How terrible was that? The poor, victimized couple.

Floyd Mayweather Accused of Misdemeanor Battery

Floyd Mayweather is in trouble with the law again.
The boxer, who has been barred from seeing his children and is awaiting a hearing on multiple felony charges, has been accused of misdemeanor battery against a security guard.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. Photo
As first reported by TMZ, an employee inside Mayweather's gated Las Vegas community approached the athlete late yesterday afternoon and inquired about a parking situation. Mayweather allegedly responded to the question by poking the man in the face with his finger.
Police were called to the scene, but Mayweather did not answer their knocks on his front door. The case has now been turned over to the DA, who will decide whether or not to pursue it further.

Oksana Grigorieva Emails: Proof of Extortion Against Mel Gibson?

These words, excerpted from Oksana Grigorieva emails sent to Mel Gibson just before their mediation in May, are a big part of what his lawyers believe prove attempted extortion took place between the actor and his estranged ex.
Oksana sent the emails May 2, two weeks before she and Mel went into mediation which resulted in a $15 million package for Oksana and baby Lucia.

Mel and Oksana Action
Do Oksana Grigorieva's emails reveal sinister intentions?
In the email, Oksana Grigorieva accuses Mel and his family of leaking stories about their breakup, specifically ones that "claim you dumped me."
Mel's lawyers believe the emails show Oksana as a manipulator, someone not fearful of Gibson at all, but merely scheming to extort his millions.
Oksana writes, "Does your family think that my modesty and class could pass for stupidity?" She adds, "Do they think that I will let them carry on with ruining my reputation, which was unblemished before i ever layed eyes on you?"
"The facts are stubborn things, information is power, you told me so yourself."

Will.i.am Blasts "Disrespectful" Michael Jackson Album; Akon Defends Collaboration

Will.i.am is not a fan of the posthumous Michael Jackson album, Michael.
The forthcoming project is "disrespectful" to the King of Pop, who the the Black Eyed Peas frontman says would be rolling in his grave at its release.
His reasoning? MJ was such a perfectionist, he would never want fans to hear his songs without his approval. In will.i.am's mind, this is a low blow.

a will.i.am picA is For Akon
Akon sees Michael Jackson's legacy differently than will.i.am.
"Whoever put it out and is profiting off of it, I want to see how cold they are," he said. "To say that what (MJ) contributed during his life wasn't enough. He just wasn't any ordinary artist. He was a hands-on person. To me it's disrespectful."
"Michael Jackson songs are finished when Michael says they're finished."
Will.i.am, who recorded with Michael just before he died, says those tapes will never see the light of day, unlike "Hold My Hand," MJ's collaboration with Akon.
Their duet is the first single from Michael, and Akon disagrees with will.i.am, saying the upcoming record is actually keeping the King Of Pop's "legacy alive."
"I don't see anything disrespectful about it," he says. "These albums would have come out if he was alive or dead." What do you think? Is it good or bad?

Lil Wayne Hit With Another Paternity Suit

Lil Wayne has four kids. That we know of. Of course four, at least three have different mothers. The mother of the second child has never been established.
In any case, the ranks of Weezy's brood may be growing yet again! A Louisiana woman claims he fathered her eight-year-old grandson and wants a DNA test.
She'd have gotten it long ago had it not been for Hurricane Katrina. Really.

Lil Wayne and T-Pain
T-Pain (left) has nothing to do with this article.
Ever since the baby was born in 2002, the boy's family "tried multiple times to get a paternity test" from the troubled rapper, only to face unforeseen delays.
Such as a massive natural disaster. The New Orleans court system moved at a snail's pace anyway, but after Katrina, the case's records were all destroyed.
Proceedings were therefore delayed by a matter of years. Finally, this year, the court ordered Lil Wayne to submit to a DNA test. He was in jail at the time.
Now that he's been sprung, Wayne has until early-December to take it. Lightning (or hurricanes, more accurately) aren't likely to strike twice, fortunately.

Jamie and Lynn Spears: Reconciled!

Britney Spears' divorced parents are back together.
Jamie and Lynn Spears, who also have a daughter Jamie Lynn Spears, are reconciling eight years after getting divorced. They're not married again (yet), but "they're back together and are doing well and happy," a source tells People.
"[They're] not remarried but back together."

The Spears Parents
The couple, who split in 2002, were looking friendly on Saturday at Los Angeles lounge Boudoir, cheering and dancing as DJ Mr. Best spun Britney Spears hits.
"They were in a great mood together," says an onlooker of the pop star's folks. "They were laughing together, dancing and laughing [and] totally having fun."
This sparked rumors of the couple rekindling their lost passion, which were soon confirmed by people close to the singer's camp and her parents themselves.
"Lynne is a dear, sweet person," a family friend says. "She deserves all the happiness in the world. My only wish for her would be a happy ending."
Congratulations to the whole family on this happy news.

Kate Middleton and Prince William: Officially Engaged!

It's been a rumor for months, but it's now an official Royal announcement: Kate Middleton and Prince William are engaged.
The two have been together for years, with a couple brief break-ups along the way. Already regulars in the pages of supermarket tabloids, Kate and William can expect even more coverage as they move toward a wedding that's scheduled to take place some time in 2011.

Royal Engagement?Royal Romance
Ahead for Kate Middleton and Prince William: love, marriage... and $20 billion.
William proposed during a vacation in Kenya last month. He has informed the Queen of his intentions and also sought permission from Middleton's father.
In part, the official statement by Great Britain reads.

Dancing With the Stars Recap: Jennifer Grey is Perfect!

Jennifer Grey certainly made a statement last night.
With just one night remaining before the finals, and voters paying scant attention to scores for several weeks now, there is no margin for error. Everyone is at risk.
Well, everyone but her. The way she and Derek Hough danced Monday, the other three pairs are tangoing for second. A perfect 30 once? Amazing. Twice? Unheard of.

Jennifer Grey, Derek Hough Picture
HAND HER THE MIRRORBALL: Hopefully next week, the voters will.
The 90-minute program was probably the most entertaining of the season so far, as all the couples stepped up their game, including Bristol Palin, who wasn't terrible.
Not that she deserves to make the finals over Jennifer, Brandy or Kyle Massey. Each outperformed Bristol, predictably, last night as they have for the final month.
Let's break it down by couple. Regaining sole ownership of the top of the charts were Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough, whose efforts were pure perfection.

TJ Lavin Heads Home from Hospital

A month after a harrowing accident placed him in intensive car, BMX star TJ Lavin has been released from the hospital.
The athlete's mother told The Las Vegas Review-Journal that her son - who was placed in a coma to stop swelling in his brain, and also suffered an orbital fracture and a broken right wrist - has made significant progress and "is now walking, talking, eating on his own and is getting his sense of humor back."

TJ Lavin
"He has some eye issues and balance issues, but as the swelling goes down, we hope they will go away," Barbara Lavin said. "He's starting to get his personality back."
Going forward, Lavin will have to wear an eye patch occasionally, but will receive assistance from fiancée Roxanne Siordia. He'll soon join a program for brain injuries at an outpatient facility in Las Vegas and has told friends he wants to ride again someday.

Why Did Jenna Jameson Quit Porn?

She did it for the kids. Or, rather, she stopped doing it for the kids.
Jenna Jameson, who has not starred in an adult film since Kobe Loves Jenna, told W Magazine in its latest issue that she will no longer get penetrated by men or women on camera. The reason?
“I really don’t think I need to say, ‘Mommy was a porn star,’” Jameson said of explaining her former occupation to Jesse and Journey, her twin sons Tito Ortiz.

Jenna Jameson, Kids
Just how far is Jameson taking this new approach? She says she "won't even do a Maxim cover" and added she hopes her children are proud:
“I feel like they’re going to know me and think, Mommy loved us so much that she quit everything and made us her job. And that’s what I did. The moment I decided to have children, I quit."

Celebrity Style Showdown: LeAnn Rimes vs. Hayden Panettiere

Below, LeAnn Rimes and Hayden Panettiere go toe-to-toe in a fierce fight for fashion supremacy. Who will prevail? That's for you to tell us. Ding, ding!
Rimes may or may not be engaged to Eddie Cibrian, but there is little doubt she looked fab in a Elizabeth and James dress on a night out in L.A.
Meamwhile, the former Heroes star and current Wladimir Klitschko boo paired a green version with a leather jacket for his match in Germany.

Brittny Gastineau Really Might Be Dating Michael Phelps

Michael Phelps does not have gold medal taste in women.
The Olympic legend was spotted out with socialite Brittny Gastineau over the weekend, as TMZ says its cameras caught the swimmer walking hand-in-hand with the daughter of former New York Jets star Mark Gastineau at the Grove in Los Angeles.

Brittny Gastineau PhotoSwimming God
An insider claims this unexpected duo were "very cozy" at Mondrian Hotel and visit Coffee Bean and did some shopping together the following afternoon.
This isn't the first time Phelps has shown questionable taste in the opposite sex. He was once rumored to be dating Carrie Prejean. We agree: he's upgraded!

PETA: FUR-ious Over Kim Kardashian Koat Selektion

It was unseasonably warm in New York City yesterday, as temperatures hovered in the mid-50s.
But that didn't stop Kim Kardashian from breaking out a pair of fur coats, much to the chagrin of an organization that actually rivals this reality star in its need for attention.

Kim in Fur
Is PETA 2 FUR-ious at Kim Kardashian for these coats?
After seeing photos of Kim in the attire above, PETA released the following statement:
“Kim Kardashian is a woman who has everything - except, it seems, an ounce of sympathy for the animals who have the fur ripped off their backs so that she can purchase yet another gaudy jacket. We wish she would take a cue from her fur-free sister, Khloé Kardashian - but evidently, kindness and generosity don’t run in the family.”
Snaps, yo.

Snooki and Jionni LaValle: Disney World Love!

Sorry, Emilio Masella. You missed your shot, dog. Maybe if you weren't a drunk skank with no job (quote courtesy JWoww), you'd still be with Snooki.
Instead, Jionni LaValle has stepped into the role - and they're in love!
Over the weekend, Snooki and Jionni LaValle took a trip to Walt Disney World in Florida to celebrate her upcoming birthday. Tagging along? Her dad!

Snooki and JionniJionni LaValle and Snooki Photo
Snooki and Jionni get wet and wild. And a little blurry.
Other men have come and gone from her life in rapid succession, but she seems to have learned from her mistakes and found a genuine one this time.
Under one of the pictures Snook Tweeted, she wrote, "Fallin in love at disney :)" Awww. Looks like the Princess of Poughkeepsie has found a Prince!
Here's hoping this gorilla juicehead is "The One."

Lea Michele and Cory Monteith Remain Clothed, Dish on Success of Glee

Lea Michele and Cory Monteith are no strangers to being photographed for a major magazine.
But the co-stars are strangers to being photographed for a major magazine without any controversy resulting from their scantily-clad pictorial. We're referring, of course, to their scandalous GQ spread last month.
We doubt anyone will take exception to Monteith and Michele's photo shoot in the December issue of Teen Vogue, however, as evidenced by the simple pose below:

Glee in Teen Vogue
The pair also spoke on Glee and their friendship with the magazine. A few excerpts from the interview:

Willow Palin Boyfriend Cock-Blocked on Sarah Palin's Alaska

Sarah Palin's Alaska is an environment wrought with challenges.
When it comes to protecting daughter Willow, a mama grizzly will do what she needs to do. Stopping by for a visit on the first episode of Sarah's TLC show, the 16-year-old Willow's excited boyfriend Andy learns this the hard way.

Willow Palin Picture
Sarah Palin wants to tap the oil fields of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, but strives to ensure Willow Palin remains untapped by certain Alaskan wildlife.
Barring Andy from following Willow up where evil things happen, Sarah says "See this gate? It's not just for Trig, it's for no boys go up there." Eloquent as ever.
Considering her success rate keeping boys off of Bristol Palin, you'd think Sarah would know a baby gate's not gonna do much. But hey, at least she's trying.
Follow the jump to watch the drama unfold on Sarah Palin's Alaska ..

Demi Lovato Described as "Out of Control Mess" While Dating Joe Jonas

At this point, it's no secret that Demi Lovato has been dealing with a number of issues for a very long time.
How did those problems affect this singer's relationship with Joe Jonas? Greatly, according to the latest issue of People.
A source tells that publication Joe had little choice but to end things because “Demi’s attitude and behavior were out of control.” This insider goes on to refer to Demi as “a tortured mess."

Still Good Friends
Lovato's struggles hit a climax on a plane out of Peru, as has already been detailed. She believed backup dancer Alex Welch had tattled on her partying habits and, according to this story:
"Walked onto the plane, did not look at the girl, then suddenly punched her in the face and threatened her with a slew of expletives. Demi’s manager asked her, ‘Are you in control at all?’ She said, ‘Sorry, I just lost it.’”
From there, Demi agreed to seek treatment - and now we're all rooting for her to get better.

Jessica Simpson or Nick Lachey: Whose Relationship Will Last Longer?

Nearly five years after Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey divorced, both stars got engaged this month and are totally ready for their second marriages.
Nick and Vanessa Minnillo announced their news November 1. Then, this Sunday, we learned that Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson will wed as well.
The way marriages go nowadays, particularly in Hollywood, you can't help but wonder if either will make it. Who do you think stands the better chance? 

Vanessa, Nick PicJessica Simpson and Eric Johnson Picture
Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson are getting hitched. To other people.
As for the obligatory rumor that Jessica got engaged just to "keep up" with Nick (you know someone will report this), a source says Johnson "had been planning the engagement for awhile and the date was very special to them."

Mistress of Gordon Ramsay Pens Letter to Wife of Gordon Ramsay

Forget Hell's Kitchen. Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay is living through Hell's Bedroom.
An affair between the reality TV star and fame-mongering mistress Sarah Symonds came to light this summer, mostly because the latter announced her plans to write a book about the relationship. (She's already the author of "Having An Affair? - A Handbook for the Other Woman.")
Now, Symonds has taken the unusual, hilarious, condescending step of actually reaching out to Tana Ramsay, Gordon's scorned wife.

Gordon Ramsay, Wife
In an open letter on her website, Symonds refers to herself as an "Infidelity Analyst" and tells Tana to "stand up for herself." It gets so much better:

Bristol Palin Works Her Butt Off!

Despite mediocre performances all season, Bristol Palin has made it to the final four on Dancing With the Stars, and might not even be done this week.
"I can't believe it's been three months already," she said. Heading into tonight's waltz and paso doble double-dip, she says "I'm pretty confident now."
That confidence should come in handy this week, when the Pistol and partner Mark Ballas perform routines she describes as fierce and "pretty sexy."
The challenge, she admits, is that "I'm not a sexy girl."

Bristol Palin Shakes It
OOH, YEAH! Mark Ballas likes what he's seen from Bristol Palin so far.
"I work my butt off," she adds, dismissing any conspiracy theories surrounding her unexpectedly long run on the show, saying it's all about effort.
Besides, for every voter that would vote for her because she's her mother's daughter, "Think about all the people who hate my mom!" she said.
That's a fair point.
As for the obligatory romance rumors that engulf any Dancing With the Stars tandem, Bristol Palin says she and Mark Ballas are purely friends.

Sebastian Bach Busted For Biting Bouncer

Former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach was arrested in Ontario this morning after cops say he smashed a wine glass at a bar and got into a melee.
A melee that ended with Bach biting one of the bouncers.
According to reports, the drama began when the singer got into a "dispute" with the owner of the Peterborough, Ont., pub where he'd been hanging.

Sebastian Bach Photo
Bach was asked to GTFO the joint just after midnight, but he refused. Instead, the 42-year-old fired a wine glass at the front door. Always a smart move.
The owner of the bar and a bouncer tried to restrain the singer, and that's when things got ugly. Before he knew it, Bach bit the dude on the hand.
Bach was restrained by bar staff until cops arrived and reportedly found nearly two grams of weed on Bach. Not his best night, in other words.
He was charged with assault, possession of marijuana and mischief.

First Listen: Michael Jackson and Akon Duet on "Hold My Hand"

A duet featuring Michael Jackson and Akon was released this morning as the first official single from the late icon's posthumous upcoming album Michael.
A handwritten note by MJ was found after his death indicating his desire that "Hold My Hand" be the first single on his next album, Epic Records said.
There's no doubt about its authenticity, either. Unlike the track that leaked earlier this month, "Breaking News," Jackson's family embraces this song.

Michael Pic
Taj Jackson, one of the star's many nephews, posted an online message Sunday saying it was the last song his uncle ever played for him in person.
"He was so proud of it," Taj said. "I'll never forget the smile he had on his face as the song played through the speakers at the Palms Hotel in Vegas."
