Remember the rumor that John Mayer and Kristin Cavallari hooked up? Well not only did it NOT happen,niiiiiicccce Kristin is saying that John asked her out but she shot him down. She says that she didn’t want to be just another notch on his belt. She also came out and denied those reports of what she makes per episode saying it’s not true that she makes less than Audrina Patridge. Which likely means that Kristin makes far more money than MTV is admitting. The dislike the two girls seem to have for one another is all real. Kristin says, “I don’t NOT like Audrina. I don’t think she likes me”. It doesn’t seem to be just Audrina she is having problems with. Stephanie Pratt just came out and said that she might just have to leave the show midseason because she can’t take it anymore!

Jon and Kate Plus 8 has been renamed at re-cast to Kate Plus 8. Jon Gosselin has been dropped from the series completely. The show will be the same as before just without him and focusing more on Kate’s single life. The series wants to reflect what has been obvious for months, that Jon just isn’t into his kids. He whines about missing his apartment in Manhattan while he is filming a fishing expedition with his kids! TLC said they also want to keep it more family focused.

Lamar Odom is trying to make all the non-believers quiet. At a press conference for the Lakers yesterday he said, “Of course, it’s real it was a beautiful event.”

5. TLC has announced that Jon Gosselin will no longer be a part of “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” so they’re changing the name of the show to “Kate Plus 8.” His rep is saying that Jon wasn’t fired, but a source says that because of the way Jon’s been acting in public, there was no way TLC could continue to portray him as a doting dad. The new “Kate Plus Eight” starts November 2. Meantime, Jon reportedly is still shopping around his own reality show called “The Divorced Dads Club.”

4.The NYC medical examiner has ruled that DJ AM died of an accidental overdose caused by acute intoxication, and that it was not a suicide or a result of foul play. The full report won’t be released to the media — only to AM’s family. But what the medical examiner did say was that he died because of the combined effects of a laundry list of drugs — cocaine, oxycodone, Vicodin, Ativan, Klonopin, Xanax, Benadryl and Levamisole, which is a drug used wtih cocaine.

3. Tori Spelling went to the hospital Monday because she was suffering from excruciating stomach pains. They released her that night, but she went back to the hospital again yesterday because she wasn’t feeling any better. The doctors have run several tests, but so far the results are inconclusive.

2. Miley Cyrus is joining the cast of “Sex and the City 2!” Rumor is she will be making a cameo appearance as herself. She’ll be on the red carpet with Kim Cattrall’s character Samantha and they’ll both be wearing the same outfit. Oh the horror of wearing the same dress as Hannah Montana!! Here’s hoping for a cat fight.

1. Justin Timberlake is rumored to be cooling things off with Jessica Biel while heating things up with Rihanna. At an after-party for the VMAs on September 13, things between Justin and Rihanna got a little hot on the dance floor. Then Rihanna reportedly invited Justin to her hotel room for a little AFTER after-party. A source says they tried to keep it a secret but Jessica found out a couple days later. And Justin and Rihanna have been texting and talking non-stop since the VMAs. Now he’s working with her on her new album, and during one session, the two of them were flirting so hard that Rihanna ended up giving him a lap dance. Jessica is said to be a wreck about it, but she’s trying not to act like a jealous, possessive girlfriend since that’s a big turnoff for Justin.

kim-reggie1Now that Kourtney is pregnant and Khloe is married, it’s about time for Kim to get back in the spotlight. Just one day after her little sister gets married, she’s back in a relationship! It is official that her and former boyfriend Reggie Bush are back together. They’ve spent the last couple months getting their own lives straightened out and focusing on priorities that don’t involve each other. Apparently the Bush family is close with the Kardashian’s because they attended Khloe’s wedding!

How is the recession affecting the talented reality stars? Not at all apparently. The Hills cast salaries have been released and they aren’t doing too bad. kristin-cavallariKristin Cavallari is raking in $90,000 per episode! Heidi gets almost 100,000 and so does Audrina. But poor Spencer is only getting $65,000 per episode. Producers say it’s because he hasn’t been on the show for very long. Even Brody who is hardly on the show, makes 45,000 per episode. LC is still the highest paid at 2.5 million a year. And she demanded that no other star could make as much as her while she was there. None of these numbers even include side jobs like fashion lines, books, and appearance fees!

Well Khloe actually did it-she married Lamar Odom. Things went as planned except for a big family member not showing up. That person was Brody Jenner. His excuse was that he had to be in New York to promote The Hills. He is blaming MTV saying that they are the reason he was forced to miss his step-sister’s wedding. He then jokes that he is happy because he will be getting some good seats at the Lakers games this year. So is Brody ready to tie the knot with Jayde? Not yet, he says. He says he has trouble keeping up with his step-sisters because they move too fast for him. He says, “I’d have to get married right off the bat to keep up and I’m not ready for something like that”.

Last night Conan O’Brien gave up why there was a repeat on Friday night’s show…

I knew Conan was tall, but 6′4″! Holy schnikes. He’s lucky that low flying aircraft don’t clip him. He’s lucky that the last solar eclipse isn’t catch is forehead. He could probably give fellow giant Shaquille O’Neal a run for his money in a dunking contest.

In any case, we’re glad you’ve recovered from the concussion Conan. When is Triumph the COmic Insult dog on next?

5. “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs” was number one at the box office for a second week. The 3-D animated movie took in another $24.6 million in ticket sales. Bruce Willis’ latest sci-fi movie “Surrogates” had a weak opening with only $15 million and took second place. “Fame” opened in third place with only $10 million.

4. “Saturday Night Live” kicked off its new season this weekend, and newcomer Jenny Slate almost made her first appearance on the show her last. She was doing a skit called “Biker Chick Chat” when she accidentally dropped the F-bomb. She immediately realized her mistake but plowed ahead with the sketch. Jenny was not at the after-party which led everyone to believe she’d been fired. But NBC execs met about it and while they weren’t exactly thrilled, they’ve decided to let Jenny keep her job. They’re also relieved that they won’t be fined by the FCC because the slip-up happened well after prime time.

3. Mischa Barton’s new show on the CW has been canceled after only two episodes. Only 1.1 million people tuned in to the second and final episode of “The Beautiful Life.” The show was produced by Ashton Kutcher and was loosely based on his life as a model way back when.

2. It was a weekend of celebrity weddings. Besides the big Kardashian wedding, Justin Guarini married Reina Capodici at a private estate in his hometown of Doylestown, PA, Saturday evening. Justin and Reina went to high school together but only started dating after reconnecting a few years ago. And “My Name is Earl” star Jaime Pressly married entertainment lawyer Simran Singh at a small ceremony in Malibu, on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Last November, Jaime split with her baby daddy and was introduced to Simran shortly after that. They announced their engagement in July.

1. If you weren’t among the 250 guests invited to Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom’s black-tie, Blackberrys-banned wedding, don’t worry. E! was there with cameras rolling to catch the whole thing for an upcoming episode of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians.” Just after 5pm Sunday evening, Khloe was escorted down the aisle by her stepdad Bruce Jenner, with her sisters Kim and Kourtney by her side. Khloe was wearing a Vera Wang gown and her bridal party wore lavendar. The bridesmaids included her half-sisters, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, twin actresses Khadijah and Malika Haqq, and actress Lauren London, who just gave birth to Lil Wayne’s son two weeks ago. Among the 250 guests were Lamar’s teammates Kobe Bryant and Ron Artest, his coach Phil Jackson, Kelly Osbourne, Joe Francis, Chelsea Handler and Ryan Seacrest, who was asked if would consider producing a show with Khloe and Lamar. He said, “I’m seriously thinking about it.” Two people not at the wedding — Lamar’s 10-year-old daughter Destiny and his 7-year-old son Lamar, Jr. After the ceremony, Babyface sang at the reception and a DJ who flew in from NYC was booked to keep the party going until 11pm.

khole-kardashian1Well they did it! Khloe and Lamar actually tied the knot last night. Maybe it’s because E! said they would cover the ENTIRE bill if they got married yesterday and only yesterday. They need footage for Keeping Up with the Kardashians of course! That bill wasn’t cheap either…it was 1 million dollars! Cameras were rolling for the ceremony and reception. Many E! celebs were in attendance as well including, Khloe’s entire family, Ryan Seacrest, Chelsea Handler and of course most of the Laker team and coach Phil Jackson! Blackberries were banned at the wedding to prevent any sneaky pics from getting out! What’s the biggest problem with the rushed wedding? No time for a prenup! Turns out the couple agreed to a non-binding ceremony which means both parties agree that yesterday’s wedding wasn’t official and Lamar will have time to arrange a “postnup”. Apparently they will sign the real paperwork after that!

The new season of Saturday Night Live kicked off this past weekend and it didn’t go as smoothly as planned. Megan Fox hosted and 2 new female cast members made their debut. Unfortunately Jenny Slate might be on probation after her first show. During a skit called “Biker Chick Chat”, the girls were trash talking but always substituting words for the not so appropriate ones. But halfway through, Jenny slipped and said the F word she meant to avoid. She puffed her cheeks up but the sketch continued. Fueling speculation that she might be fired, she wasn’t at the show’s after-party. Well NBC says they met about it and though they aren’t happy, will not fire her. Since it occurred well after prime-time, the FCC will not be able to fine them.

Conan was rushed to the hospital with a head injury on Friday. The accident happened while filming a skit for his Friday night show. He was doing a pre-recorded bit for guest Teri Hatcher where he emulated her triathalon performance. Teri said that at the end of the bit as Conan was crossing the finish line, he slipped and hit his head on the ground. He didn’t get up at first but was able to pull it together. He had to make a trip to the hospital but NBC says that he has a concussion and will be fine. NBC was forced to run a repeat show on Friday.

Just for fun an unscripted/uncensored Q&A with Andy Richter + Conan O’Brien

slateMy B-S detector is going off.

This newby to SNL makes an honest mistake when she’s supposed to say freakin’ during a live sketch, but instead says the mother of all curse words.  Nobody knew Jenny Slate’s name before Saturday night and now the interwebs are lit up with her clip.

OK, so it looks like she just flubbed her line, but then again, why wouldn’t SNL want all this extra press? I mean, if it meant you were going to go home and talk about 105.1 FM Charlie all day, I’d consider changing to an all F-Bomb radio station.  So why wouldn’t they want that?

Since the FCC would probalby have something to say about my new radio style, I’ll most likely just keep things like they are for now.   That is of course, until the boss goes on vacation.

What does it look like when you have two guitar greats watching a guitar god lay down one of the greatest guitar riffs in the history of Rock and Roll? U2’s The Edge and Jack White of The White Stripes look like kids in a candy story while witnessing Led Zeppelin axe man Jimmy Page wail out ‘Whole Lotta Love.”

That’s just one of the treats in the new electric guitar documentary It Might Get Loud. The filmmaker gathered the multi-generational mix in 2008 and sat the three down to talk about strumming the six string. Page, The Edge and White all notably have their own take on the art of playing and that’s where music lovers are graced with a pretty sweet ninety-minute ride.

Granted, I am a giant White Stripes fan, seasoned in the Led and don’t mind listening to U2. So, as far as documentary subjects go, I was already enthralled.

A good documentary captures the human emotion of the subject, and you learn something new along the way. In this case, we find delve into reasons why these guys ever picked up the guitar. We also find out why The Edge always plays on Bono’s right side. Jimmy Page does the math adding up what four members of a well oil band equals. Jack White also tells you why his piano is four steps away from his guitar, instead of three.

Those little factoids are why die-hard music fans will appreciate this one. By the way, you’ve been warned in the title.
