LENO ON OPRAH TODAY

Ok Jay Leno is on Oprah today. Can I tell you what I am MOST excited about with his show leaving? He’ll get his desk back and we won’t have to look at his crotch region with awkward socks. Is it that guys typically don’t really know how to sit?? Do you not feel comfy crossing your legs?

Oh PS, something he WILL talk about today, is how he's learned to deal with all of the jokes made by other late-night hosts. He says "It's like being a fighter, and say when you got punched in the head, did it hurt? Well, yeah, but you're a fighter, that's what you do."

MOVE OVER TRISTA AND RYAN!

Jason meets Melissa. Jason picks Melissa, Jason dumps Melissa and picks Molly. Jason marries Molly. The End. Yup, move over Trista and Ryan, we are about to see "The Bachelor: Jason and Molly's Wedding" is set to air March 8.

Guest list to include past "Bachelor" and "Bachelorette" participants.

KATY WANTS SIMON

So did you see Katy Perry on Idol – major TUDE. Well, rumor swirling that she’d give up her career if they offered her Simon’s job. God I hope this doesn’t happen.

ADAM'S UNDIES FOR SALE!

How much do you spend on new undies? $10? Wanna buy Adam Lambert’s? Yah. He has put his underwear that Ellen gave him on e-Bay to raise money for Haiti. You have about 8 days left, last time I checked there were 29 bids and they’re up to $3150.

AVATAR IS THE NEW KING OF THE WORLD!

Well, it did it. Avatar is officially the highest grossing movie/film worldwide, of all time. $300 million to make- 1.859 billion dollars (Titanic 1.843).

LEO LOVES JOY'SEE

What A-List MAJ Hollywood celeb NEVER misses an episode of Jersey Shore. Leonardo DiCaprio. He was spotted at a media event saying GTL For Life- Gym, Tanning, Laundry, words to live by if you’re a guido. Looks like they may get $10,000 per ep/vs the hundreds they got on Season 1. Love it or hate it, ratings are through the roof. The season finale of Jersey Shore ratings were 77% higher than the Season Finale of the Hills- shooting soon (they might move them to somewhere warm, will air July)

PLACE YOUR BETS NOW!

Bookies everywhere are placing bets on the Brangelina breakup.

ROCKY ROAD ON IDOL...ALREADY!

We might be in for a rocky ride on Idol. According to an anonymous source, Simon arrived an hour-and-a-half late for Ellen's first day of taping Monday, Hollywood week. This source says Ellen went from being nervous about her debut to being really mad that he was so late, because she had juggled her schedule to make room for the taping. She then called Simon Cowell a prima donna and was SO upset, she called a Fox executive and asked him to, quote, "hurry up and pick" Simon's successor. Needless to say the chemistry is NOT great. What do we believe? Oh

PS- Neil Patrick Harris, Joe Jonas, Katy Perry and Avril are this week’s guest judges.


SWAYER? JIFTY?

More buzz on Taylor Swift and John Mayer. Tayer? Swaver, Mmmmswift? On Sunday night, they were spotted together enjoying dinner in Nashville at Cabana restaurant. Now, before we speculate, they weren’t completely alone for the whole night, John was in town taping a CMT Crossroads special…but don’t be fooled, I believe this is the new hot couple. Don’t know how I feel about that- she’s a text-a-holic and he Twitters like mad, so I am sure we’ll see lots more soon.

EDWARD CULLEN...THE MUSIC CAREER?

Ok, for Twilight fans, I have REALLY good news. Robert Pattinson (Edward) is REALLY close to signing a record deal. Simon Cowell has approached him to make music, but he’s not alone, there’s a bidding war over him – he sings, plays guitar and piano. Do we care JUST because he’s a vampire or could he really be good?


DIDDY'S VERY LUCKY KID

What do you get for your 16th birthday if you’re Diddy’s kid. Well, Justin had an I AM PRINCE themed party (cuz his dad’s the king) and got a $10,000 cheque (which he gave to Haiti) – then he also got a car. A Maybach, complete with driver – ummm, it cost $360,000. Oh and the party had a 1000 people including the cast of Jersey Shore. Ps – it’s going to be an episode of My Super Sweet 16 for MTV. (FIRST CARS)…


MJ ON DVD TODAY

This Is It, the MJ movie DVD is in stores today. In addition to the actual movie, you get 90 minutes of extra stuff – making of, how they picked the dancers, and a new Thriller video.

IS BRANGELINA BREAKING UP?

In the last 12 hours, the rumor mill has been going crazy saying Brad and Angelina broke up (this has been going on for 5 years). News of the World, LA Times, NY Mag and Showbiz Spy says they are going their separate ways and have already signed legal documents figuring out kids and their 300 million dollars. The newspaper says an announcement of their separation is expected soon. People Magazine is saying – things are NOT good, but they have not drawn up papers yet.

We’re going to lean to NO as of now…but stay tuned!
PLEASE GIVE NOW!

Canada for Haiti which was on an hour before, brought in 18.8 million. You can still give, just text the word REDCROSS to 30333 and $5 will automatically charge to your cell phone!

CONAN O'BRIEN IS A FREE AGENT

Conan's final episode of The Tonight Show drew a really big audience. The exact numbers have not been disclosed, but it received a hefty 7.0 rating. To put that number into perspective, it's nearly three times the rating for David Letterman’s show Friday night. JAY LENO is going to “sit down” with Oprah Thursday about the whole mess, I guess Conan was also invited, not sure if he’ll say yes.

JERSEY SHORE WANTS MORE!

The cast of Jersey Shore is already fighting about money for Season 2. They’ve been offered a $10,000 signing bonus plus $5,000 per episode, but they’ve chosen to stand together like the cast of Friends, until they get their price. (they want Hills money- which is like $100,00 per ep). MTV THEN went to $10,000 per episode and they have a day to consider it, then they’re being recast.

AVATAR POISED TO TAKE OVER

Avatar (1.6 billion currently) earned another $36 million this weekend, surpassing Dark Knight – it’s now in 2nd place to Titantic (1.8 billion) but James Cameron said by this afternoon, when worldwide numbers come in, it should officially be #1.

Friday, January 22, 2010

CONAN SETTLES

Conan is leaving the building – his last Tonight Show is tonight- Will Ferrell, Tom Hanks will hop on the couch. So basically Conan gets $45 million dollars to leave, 12 of which he plans to divvy up between his staff of 200. Crybaby Jay Leno gets his show back March 1st. I bet Conan will go to Fox in September.

TAYLOR’S FANTASYLAND
Taylor Swift, when she’s not on tour or working on her 3rd album, is decorating her new Nashville penthouse condo. Turning into her fantasy world actually. Before you think dirty thoughts, don’t. She means she’s putting a pond in her living room. The pond is a moat around the fireplace...You then step on a steppingstone in the pond in order to get to a spiral staircase, which takes you up to a human-sized bird cage observatory." Still wanna be her boyfriend D?

BECKHAM’S BITS??

David Beckham got groped for Italian TV. Here’s the thing. A reporter was interviewing him (kind of like a MadTV type show) and before anyone could get to her, she reached out, with rubber gloves on and grabbed his “YOU KNOWS” – testing the peas”, apparently the entire goal of the stunt was to see if he was really as well endowed as the world thinks he is, especially in the light of Becks being replaced by Cristian Ronaldo in the Armani undie ad campaign. How did the story end? She ran away yelling “E piccolo, Beckham” (“Beckham is small”) - - OOPS!!!

MORE 911 DRAMAS?

Do we HONESTLY need another medical drama? Shonda Rhimes who created Grey’s and Private P, is working on #3 – called OFF THE MAP – doctors in a tropical locale.

Thursday, January 21, 2010

WE ARE THE WORLD 2...

Lionel Richie and producer Quincy Jones are remaking We are the World – but for Haiti (with everyone in the biz right now), it’ll be recorded Feb 1st after the Grammy’s. Now the night before, AT the Grammy’s there’s going to be a tribute to Michael Jackson with Celine Dion, Smokey Robinson, Carrie Underwood, Usher and Jennifer Hudson, as well as Michael’s own voice. They’re all going to be singing one his songs called "Earth Song," while a 3-D movie plays in the background. Go find some 3-D glasses!


THE NEW SOPRANOS

HBO thinks it may have found the next “Sopranos”, an upcoming show called “Boardwalk Empire” – Martin Scorcese…the pilot alone cost $ $50 million…teaming with Mark Wahlberg and Stephen Levinson of Entourage fame and they’re beginning a script.

LENO FINALLY SPEAKS

Jay Leno is now speaking out, saying he NEVER wanted to do a show in primetime, but was convinced by the network that it could be a success. Then, when Jay and Conan’s ratings began to tank, they told him they were going to make a change. Then apparently Leno said he ASKED NBC to let him out of his contract, but NBC wouldn’t comply. As for what the final decision will be, Leno said, "We might have an answer for you tomorrow." (today)
Conan could get $32.5 million in severance but would be barred from hosting a show on another network until September.

PS- NBC Universal Chief Executive Officer JEFF ZUCKER has received death threats.

ARE THE JO-BROS BREAKING UP??

So more rumors that the Jo-Bros are breaking up, Nick has his solo project, now Joe is branching out too, working on HIS solo album, oh and wants to conquer acting, wants to be like Johnny Depp, playing everything from a villain to a comedian.

SIMON BUILDS HIS TEAM

Well Simon Cowell is getting ready for his new show The X Factor – looks as though he’s trying to strike a deal with Paula to be by his side, judging. So is former head of Sony Music (and Mariah’s ex- Tommy Mottola). Now as for Idol, the rumor mill is churning today – Piers Morgan from The Apprentice and America’s Got Talent is being considered.

ROSIE SPEAKS OUT!

Some pretty harsh comments are being made about Conan O’Brien. Top NBC exec Dick Ebersol (chairman of NBC sports and a key exec in many late night decisions) – told the NY Times that he felt Conan was an astounding failure. Dick said he met with O’Brien a few weeks before he was scheduled to take over The Tonight Show last June and advised him to adjust his style in order to reach a wider audience – but he was/is stubborn and didn’t. Then all the Jay/Conan jokes began and he went on to say “It’s chicken-hearted and gutless to blame a guy you couldn’t beat in the ratings. They’re just striking out at Jay. It seems like professional jealousy.” Ebersol summed up NBC’s late night mess by saying, quote, “We bet on the wrong guy.”

Rosie O'Donnell is coming to Conan O'Brien’s defense. Speaking with reporters at the Television Critics Association press tour Thursday, she said Jay Leno should step aside:

IF YOU'RE PRIVILEGED ENOUGH TO ASK TO DRIVE THE BUS, YOU SHOULD SAY "THANK YOU" AND DRIVE IT TO THE BEST OF YOUR ABILITY, AND WHEN IT'S TIME FOR THEM TO HIRE A NEW DRIVER, YOU SHOULD SAY "THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO DRIVE THIS AS LONG AS I DID" AND PASS THE KEYS TO THE NEW GUY WITH RED HAIR, AND NOT TRY TO FLATTEN HIS TIRES BEFORE HE EVEN GETS GOING.

CLOONEY STEPS IN

George Clooney is calling on every one of his famous friends to raise money for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti. He’ll host a telethon on MTV next Friday night – January 22nd…It will also air on ABC, NBC, CNN and HBO.

PIGGIES ANYONE?

Celebrities, award shows, FREE STUFF. The swag suites they’re known as, before they go into the show, they stop by a rented luxury hotel suite for free stuff, this year, a little different, there’s a SWINE SUITE. In addition to the usual free electronics, trips, they’re also getting free miniature pigs. If you want a petite porkers, you can shell out $5000, or be a celebrity and agree to complete a one-hour course on how to care for the animals. You can then pick between the Royal Dandie, 29 lbs, or the Royal Dandie Extreme, 19lbs. The Golden Globes and the pigs will be handed out Sunday.

Thursday, January 14, 2010

CONAN HAS JOB OPTIONS!

Since the whole Conan/Leno debacle, Conan’s viewership has increased by 42%, Jay’s hasn’t changed. Also, if Conan doesn’t go to Fox, he can work at the mall. When Conan was 22, he applied to work at Mrs Field’s Cookies, but sadly didn’t receive a call back. President of the company Jon Kauch, has officially announced that it was a huge oversight in talent recruitment and that they’re offering Conan his choice of working at any of its 300 locations nationwide.

GOSSELIN TO TRY ANYTHING!

Kate Gosselin may be getting a new show on TLC. A show, that has her quote, "trying different jobs and tasks and showing how she performs in the different environments."The show will also have a quote, "interactive component" to it.

WILL PAULA BE BY SIMON’S SIDE?

More on Simon Cowell’s X Factor coming to the states – the latest buzz is that Paula will be once again by his side, as a judge. When asked, he’s saying – “You’ll have to wait and see” – which pretty much translates to “You can count on it”. Do we care?

KATY AND AVRIL ARE POPPIN!

Katy Perry and Avril Lavigne just got a new gig. They’re going to start selling ProActive Solution, the world’s best pimple fighting regimen. Later this month, we’ll see one-minute, two-minute and 30-second ads launching later this month. Why them? They’re not even hiding it- it was for the CASH. MILLIONS apparently. Do they even have skin issues?

FERRIS BUELLER’S DAY OFF? AGAIN!?!

Matthew Broderick has given Hollywood bosses the green light to remake his classic movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," but doesn't want any involvement in it.

Tuesday, January 12, 2010

SIMON IS LEAVING THE BUILDING (Oprah copycat!)

American Idol is back tonight, but you won’t see Ellen until the Hollywood round. You will however see all the guest judges- Shania, Avril, Katy Perry, Joe Jonas, etc.

ALSO big news, Simon Cowell has made it official, he’s leaving Idol AFTER this season. Reason? He’s bringing his British show THE X FACTOR to the US, it will ALSO start on Fox, fall 2011. Think Idol, but no age limits. It also allows both groups and solo acts to perform. (Airs in 17 countries). PS- Simon owns the rights to the X Factor, and Forbes say his net worth is approaching a quarter of a billion dollars!! PSS- The producers of Idol tried to get him to stay, even offering the perk of not having to go to the auditions, just to give them 3 hours a week to deliver snide comments, but he couldn’t be swayed. Buh Bye Simon!


TAYLOR LAUTNER COCAINE OVERDOSE??

Taylor Lautner did not OD on cocaine yesterday, despite the rumors – LATEST internet hoax. I love that a rep for Summit Entertainment, confirms to E! Online that he’s "almost 100% sure Taylor Lautner is alive"…but NO COCAINE overdose to be had.

He’ll actually be a presenter Sunday night at the GG’s.

JUMP WITH GLEE!

Good news for Glee fans, Fox has picked it up for a 2nd season - - AND if you REALLY want to make your dreams come true, they’re holding an open nationwide casting call next month for amateurs and pros between the ages of 16 and 26. Go to Fox.com for details. The new cast members will be revealed in the first episode of season 2 and all new episodes of the series (current season) will start on April 13th on Fox.

IS THIS TOO MUCH FOR A THREE AND A HALF YEAR OLD???

Suri Cruise wearing gold high heeels, lipstick and gold matching purse.
LENO IS LEAVING...

NBC confirmed yesterday that Jay Leno IS in fact leaving primetime when the Olympics begin. When they finish, it LOOKS as though he’ll go back to 11:35, but only for a half hour show. Conan will be on at 12 and Fallon at 1.

The men however, have yet to formally agree to the changes, so it’s not 100% just yet. Conan’s been making lots of jokes saying "NBC is going to throw me and Jay in a pit with sharpened sticks. The one who crawls out gets to leave NBC." Conan however COULD very well leave and go to Fox, they’ve already announced they want him.

PS- NBC announced they’re developing 7 drama pilots for next season, including Law & Order Los Angeles.


HEY TITANIC...I'M COMING!! (says Avatar)

Avatar is climbing the charts, it made another 50 million this weekend, making it the 2nd highest grossing movie of all time worldwide, JUST behind Titanic.


AI IS BACK TOMORROW!

American Idol starts tomorrow night, this week they film the Hollywood episodes, this will actually be the first time Ellen joins the cast. For the first few weeks, look for Posh Spice, Shania, Katy Perry, Avril, Mary J Blige and Neil Patrick Harris. Randy Jackson notes that we MAY be surprised at what Katy and Avril bring to the table as judges, but says contestants seemed most scared of Mary J. Blige.

JG HAS A NEW GF

Jon Gosselin has a new girlfriend, 25 yr old Morgan Christie, a native of Connecticut, who now lives in California. A source tells People Mag, Christie grew up, quote, "very privileged, tons of money." The couple reportedly met while skiing in Utah.

Friday, January 8, 2010

THE LENO EXPERIMENT...GRADE F.

Looks like NBC may be rethinking its primetime experiment with Jay Leno. Rumor has it that NBC is pulling the plug on the primetime Leno, it’ll go on hiatus in February (they’re trying to use the Olympics as a reason to pull him) – but how convenient he’ll slide back into his 11:30 slot once they’re finished. The OTHER option is that he might host a half-hour show that would go on before Conan who would be moved to 12 and Jimmy Fallon would move to 1am but most think if it goes down, Conan would likely be shown the door.

NBC says "Jay Leno is one of the most compelling entertainers in the world today. As we have said all along, Jay's show has performed exactly as we anticipated on the network."

NBC said of O'Brien's job status, quote, "We remain committed to keeping Conan O'Brien on NBC. He is a valued part of our late-night lineup, as he has been for more than 16 years and is one of the most respected entertainers on television."

The statement did not, however, say in what role O'Brien would find himself if he stays with NBC.

Jay Leno himself joked about the speculation on his program on Thursday night, saying he didn't think the rumors are true but adding that, "Fox is beautiful this time of year."


MORE JERSEY SHORE

If you love the train wreck MTV show Jersey Shore, be happy cuz it looks like it’s getting a season 2. I’m not really sure how many we have left to be arrested, but I’m sure there’s enough hairspray and fist pumping to last another few weeks.

TV TIME!

ALL TV will be back next week and networks have just confirmed their mid season schedules. We have a new medical show – from Jerry Bruckheimer, called Miami Medical starting April 2nd. You will also ps see some show shifting – nights.

SURIVOR IS BACK!

It's time to outwit, outplay and outlast -- again.

CBS has unveiled the cast of Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains. The 20th edition of the popular reality show will pit former castaways known for their honorable style of play versus those who made waves for their deceptive methods.

You'd better believe this cast knows how to play the politics of Survivor. Nine of the players will be making their third appearance on the show, while ten of the castaways either won or finished as runner-up during their previous appearances, including winners SANDRA DIAZ-TWINE of Pearl Islands, PARVATI SHALLOW of Micronesia, JAMES "J.T." THOMAS JR. of Tocantins and TOM WESTMAN of Palau.

One notable personality who will be absent from the fun of Heroes vs. Villains is original Survivor winner RICHARD HATCH. He was convicted in 2006 for failing to pay his taxes and was serving home confinement last July when he asked a judge if could leave early to compete. The judge snuffed out his torch by turning down his request.

Here's a complete look at the cast of Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, which premieres February 11th on CBS:
