5. Mariah Carey kept the audience waiting for almost 2 hours for her final concert in Vegas. She was having problems with her vocal cords and demanded to see her doctor before she took the stage Saturday night. After the show, Mariah headed to the after party at this club called Haze, but when she realized Ciara was right in the middle of performing, she politely waited in her car so she wouldn’t upstage Ciara. She let the girl have her moment. Once she got inside, Mariah had herself a great time, dancing and drinking and partying the night away…until she got a text from her husband Nick Cannon, telling her to “Come home.” Mariah booked it out of there and raced back to their hotel.

4. ABC has announced the celebrity lineup for the next season of “Dancing With The Stars,” which premieres Monday, March 11. Kate Gosselin, Pamela Anderson, Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco, “All My Children” star Aiden Turner, ESPN reporter Erin Andrews, Shannen Doherty, Buzz Aldrin, Niecy Nash, Nicole Scherzinger and Olympic skater Evan Lysacek were announced during “The Bachelor” last night. And the eleventh and final celebrity dancer was named in the “After The Final Rose” show that ran right afterward. It’s Bachelor Jake Pavelka. Bleh.

3. E! has announced that “Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami” will be back for a second season and ten new episodes this summer. And in other TV news, “Glee” is taking the cast on a 4-city, 7-date tour. Sadly, they’re probably coming nowhere near you. They’re scheduled to be in Phoenix, NY, Chicago and LA, but MAYBE if it’s a big hit, they’ll expand the tour. And I’m super excited that “Glee” will be back with new episodes on Tuesday, April 13! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!

2. As we all knew anyway, Ali Fedowtowsky has been named the new Bachelorette. She left Jake the Bachelor after her bosses at Facebook told her to come back to work or risk losing her job. But she says she regrets that decision and if she could, she would do things differently. So she’s throwing caution to the wind and hopes to find true love as the Bachelorette.

1. The “Enquirer” is reporting that when Jake the Bachelor finally meets his fiancee’s mother, he’s in for a big shock. Vienna never introduced Jake to her mom — just to her dad. Vienna’s parents divorced a long time ago and her mom Tina remarried. But Vienna never even mentioned her mom on the show. Why? Well, the “Enquirer” tracked her down. They say Vienna’s mom Tina is a pot head who’s married to a part-time handyman. They live in a run-down trailer along the side of Hwy 46 in Geneva, Florida, right behind Tina’s boiled peanut stand. But she doesn’t limit herself to boiled peanuts. She also sells plain and Cajun-flavored peanuts and Mountain Dew. A source says Vienna and her mom are scheming together on how they can make as much quick cash as possible over Vienna’s new-found fame.

5. Marilyn Manson and Evan Rachel Wood reportedly got engaged. Marilyn is 41 and Rachel is 22. The two of them began dating in 2006, but broke up a couple years later. They got back together, but broke up again and now they’re back together and engaged. Marilyn reportedly popped the question while he was performing on stage in Paris Monday. Marilyn was previously married to burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese.

4. Real drama for one Real Housewife of Orange County. Tamra Barney’s hubby Simon has filed for divorce, charging her with infidelity and verbal abuse! Tamra moved out of their home earlier this week, but sources say she had no idea Simon was filing divorce papers. One source says the show changed Tamra and Simon simply had enough. Simon’s claim of adultery is especially interesting since Tamra has been giving fellow housewife Gretchen nothing but grief about how she wasn’t faithful to her former fiance. Now SHE’S the one being accused of cheating. The Barneys have been married for 11 years and have three children together. Tamra has a son from a previous marriage.

3. Khloe Kardashian says she’s not doing anything to prevent it, but she’s definitely not pregnant. She admits she’s up on the scale a little, though — gaining about 7 pounds of “love” weight.  Meantime, the “National Enquirer” is reporting that Kourtney Kardashian’s baby daddy has proposed. Reportedly Scott Disick was so moved by the birth of their son that he asked Kourtney to marry him.

2. Britney Spears reportedly dumped Jason Trawick after finding out he hooked up with some woman during a boys night out. A source says Jason left this LA bar called Roger Room with two bottles of water and a blonde who looked a lot like Britney, but definitely wasn’t. The source says Jason had his arms around her and that they definitely looked like they were together for the night.

1. Miley Cyrus has been dating Liam Hemsworth since they met on the set of their movie “The Last Song” last summer. And now the two of them are living together — at her parents’ house! Miley reportedly told Billy Ray and Tish that if they didn’t let Liam move in with them, she was moving out. They decided to let her have her way, but insisted he stay in the guest room. This isn’t the first time Miley’s boyfriend has lived with her family. A little over a year ago, Billy Ray allowed his then 15-year-old daughter’s boyfriend Justin Gaston to move in with them. A source says Billy Ray believes it’s better to keep Miley on a short leash so he can monitor her rather than alienate her and risk her a rebellion.

5. A photographer claims he has footage of Axl Rose punching him in the head at LAX Wednesday night. According to this guy, Axl showed up at the airport with some woman and as they were walking in, the woman got into an argument with a couple of paparazzi trying to take her picture. Axl apparently saw the woman scuffling with the photographers and just started throwing punches. Several members of Axl’s entourage dragged him away and then hurried him through airport security.

4. It’s a baby boy boom in Hollywood! On Tuesday, Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady welcomed a baby boy. His name still hasn’t been released. At 12:37 am today, Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett welcomed their baby boy, Hank IV, via C-section. Baby Hank weighed in at 9 lbs., 5 oz. and is 22 inches long. That’s a big boy! And Kourtney Kardashian is expecting her baby boy to pop out any second now.

3. Khloe Kardashian ran into hubby Lamar Odom’s ex-girlfriend at a club and it got real ugly real fast. Lamar was dating “Deal or No Deal” model Claudia Jordan right up until he met Khloe in August. Claudia and Khloe just so happened to be invited to the same party at a house in the Hollywood Hills and at first, the women tried to ignore each other. But as the night wore on — and the alcohol kicked in — a source says Khloe was just hanging out and having a good time when Claudia started staring at her and making snide comments about Khloe’s weight, saying, “Lamar really downgraded…I can’t believe he left me for a MAN….Oh well! I guess big girls need love, too!” Somebody told Khloe what was being said and it was ON. Khloe walked right up to Claudia and got in her face, “You want to talk trash about me, you (BLANKITY BLANK)?! Don’t do it behind my back!” Claudia turned bright red, burst into tears and immediately left the party.

2. Angelina Jolie wrote an OpEd piece for www.Newsweek.com called “Justice Delayed is Not Justice Denied.” She basically gave President Obama a stern talking-to. She is very passionate about the ongoing situation in Darfur where, she wrote,”government supported militia have left 300,000 dead and 2.7 million people internally displaced.” Angelina complains that Obama’s administration hasn’t announced any serious moves to bring those corrupt Sudanese leaders to jusgice. She wrote, “When the administration says it intends to work to ‘improve the lives of the people of Darfur,’ I would like to know what that means, besides the obvious point that their lives could hardly get worse….On this Human Rights Day–the same day President Obama receives his Nobel Peace Prize–we must also remember those who have been deprived of their rights.”

1. A former madam claimes Tiger Woods paid her up to $40K per weekend to spend quality time with her girls. Two of those girls just so happen to be porn star Holly Sampson and lingerie model Jamie Jungers. The madam says Tiger usually asked for “the college cutie, girls-next-door look.” She says Tiger always paid cash and communicated with her by text. His last communication with her was in mid 2008. Meantime, another one of Tiger’s mistresses has hired Gloria Allred to represent her. In fact, Gloria claims she will be representing a number of women involved in this case. Meantime, mistress number one Rachel Uchitel is threatening to sue the women of “The View” — particularly Joy Behar — for calling Rachel a hooker. Rachel was not amused and claims her reputation has been damaged. Gloria Allred is demanding a retraction, or else.

5. After stopping down for just one day so Courtney Cox could take care of a “personal family matter,” “Cougar Town” is back up and running. Well, it will be after Thanksgiving. The show was scheduled to be shut down for the holiday anyway. ABC won’t say what this family matter was, but Courtney’s reps say she and her family are fine.

4. Janet Jackson has moved on from her relationship with Jermaine Dupri. Reportedly she is now dating Colin Farrell. The two of them were seen snuggled up in a booth at the Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills Hotel recently.

3. “New Moon” star Ashley Greene is rumored to be dating the bassist for the Kings of Leon. A source says there was an instant connection when she met Jared Followill backstage at a Kings of Leon concert in Vancouver back in August. At the time, Jared was engaged to a model named Alisa Torres, but sources say he broke off the engagment to pursue Ashley. Apparently he caught her because Ashley was at Jared’s birthday party recently and the two of them were seen holding hands and making out.

2. Khloe Kardashian isn’t exactly endearing herself to the other Laker wives. Since she married Lamar Odom two months ago, sources say she has been causing nothing but problems with her spoiled-brat behavior and loud mouth. Apparently, Khole thinks she’s entitled to perks the other Laker wives don’t get. She and her mom Kris Jenner showed up for a game thinking they’d be sitting courtside along the likes of Jack Nicholson, only to be told their reserved seats were in the same section with the other Laker wives and kids. Khloe was NOT happy. She feels like she’s bringing lots of publicity to the Lakers and needs to be treated better than the other wives. In fact, when security guards escorted Kobe Bryant’s wife and kids from their seats to the restroom and back, Khloe turned to her mom and said loud enough for everyone to hear, “Why don’t I have bodyguards? I’m more famous than her!!”

1. Timbaland dropped Chris Brown from his new CD. Sources say Chris’ vocals were removed from the song “The One I Love,” which was originally titled “Maniac.” They changed the name of the song because “some people” didn’t think it would be a good idea to attach Chris to a song with a title like that. But while Timbaland’s manager says the decision to drop Chris’ vocals from the song was a “creative decision for both parties,” rapper D.O.E. says that’s not true. He’s also on “The One I Love” and he says the decision was made strictly because of the negative feelings people still harbor toward Chris.

5. “New Moon” tore it up at the box office this weekend. Yes, it was the number one movie, bringing in $140.7 million. It wasn’t the biggest opening weekend — it’s number three on the list. “The Dark Knight” is still number one with $155.3 million, followed by “Spider-Man 3″ with $151.1 million. But on Friday alone, “New Moon” managed to earn $72.7 million in its first 24 hours, passing “The Dark Knight” as the single best opening day in movie history. And $26.3 million of that came purely from the midnight showings, sending “New Moon” past “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” with the highest-grossing midnight opening of all time. There were other movies playing this weekend, too! Coming in second place this weekend was the new Sandra Bullock movie, “The Blind Side,” which earned $34.5 million — a strong opening for that movie. Third place went to “2012″ wtih $26.5 million.

4. Production on “Cougar Town” has been shut down so Courtney Cox can deal with a private family matter. No further details are being released, so that leaves it wide open to speculation.

3. Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom finally found their starter home in Tarzana! It’s just shy of 8400 square feet with 7 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms and a $3.995 million price tag.

2. During her performance on the AMAs last night, Rihanna was sporting a new tattoo down the front of her neck and onto her chest. If you couldn’t make out what it was, it said “Rated R.” And no, the tattoo is not permanent. She just did it to promote her new CD of the same name, which is out today.

1. If you were lucky enough to catch the AMAs live, you saw Jennifer Lopez bust her butt during her performance of “Louboutin” last night. It was quick and she recovered, but she was majorly P-O’d when she got backstage. And apparently she pitched enough of a fit to have her fall edited out for the taped version that aired a couple hours later on the west coast. During the dance routine, J-Lo climbed up on the backs of her dancers like they were a staircase, but when she jumped off the last guy, she ended up landing on her butt. In the west coast version, the fall was replaced by a slow motion view of her jumping off of the dancer’s back and then picked up again after she recovered.

5. Jim Carrey plays several characters in “A Christmas Carol,” which was the big winner at the box office this weekend, taking in $31 million. Michael Jackson’s “This Is It” took in $14 million for second place. Opening in far fewer theaters was the new George Clooney comedy, “The Men Who Stare at Goats.” It was third wtih $13.3 million, followed by “The Fourth Kind” ironically in fourth, and “Paranormal Activity” rounded out the top five.

4. Is Aerosmith still together? Joe Perry’s not so sure. He told the “Las Vegas Sun” that he THINKS Steven quit…at least as far as he can tell. Joe said, “I got off the plane two nights ago and I saw online that Steven said that he was going to leave the band. I don’t know for how long, indefinitely or whatever. Other than that, I don’t know.”

3. Khloe Kardashian and new hubby Lamar Odom are thinking about buying Britney Spears’ old home in the exclusive gated community of Summit Circle in Beverly Hills. Khloe says she is desperate to find a house because she and Lamar have been bouncing from hotel to hotel since they got married in September. Khloe says whatever house she buys has to have plenty of room for kids, even though she doesn’t plan to start trying for at least another year.

2. Kristen Stewart quit school to pursue acting, but she took classes with tutors on her movie sets and at the age of 19, she finally has her high school diploma — and she wants you to know she graduated with honors. Kristen actually finished her courses at exactly the same time her character Bella graduated in “Eclipse.” So the fictional graduation ceremony she shot for the movie sort of served as her real-life one, too. Kristen even had an extra come back to the set, shake her hand and give her a diploma while she was still wearing the cap and gown.

1. Three songs into her concert in Perth, Australia, Britney Spears kept on lip-synching as fans started heading for the doors. Hundreds left because they were upset that they paid up to $1370 to see Britney mouth her way through her performance. One fan says she drove two hours to see Britney and she wants a refund. She said, “I want my money back or I want her to sing properly. It cost me half a week’s wage…and it was a waste.” Even the Australian government is getting in on this. The Minister for Fair Trade in New South Wales is considering requiring Britney to disclose on tickets for future shows that she doesn’t sing live. Virginia Judge said, “Australians would not tolerate a ‘Mickey Mouse’ performance. Let’s be clear:  Live means live.”

You may have noticed that in life there are lots of things that run a very slim line between being creepy and being cute.  I’ve developed a totally fun game that is especially awesome when played with celebrity subjects…and now, “Creepy or Cute?”

They made it official so now they’ve decided to make it FOREVER. It seems Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom want to make their wedding permanent because they got eachothers’ names tattooed! Khloe wrote on her blog that they were at dinner and she just knew she had to have his name written on her hand. They went to the tattoo shop and decided to get eachother’s initials. She got LO in cursive on her right hand and he got KO on both hands. Obviously this was a terrible idea.
Who was caught doing the walk of shame? Joe Jonas was spotted leaving Demi Lovato’s house early Friday morning! They pair have been hanging together a lot lately and though they blame it on Camp Rock 2 film schedule, sources seem to think differently. Joe spent the night on Friday and of course Demi’s dad says he was the “chaperone”.
Is Kanye planning to steal the stage from Taylor Swift again this weekend? Taylor and Taylor are definitely ON! Taylor Swift arrived at LAX to pick up Taylor Lautner with her driver and then they headed to the LA Kings hockey game.  After the game, they were seen in the lobby of a hotel in Beverly Hills and Taylor was all dressed up and not bothered at all by the stares, while T. Lautner was hiding under a hoodie.  And in other Taylor Swift news, since she is hosting SNL this weekend, producers are working to book Kanye as a SURPRISE guest to make fun of the whole VMA incident!

5. “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” has been renewed for a second season. No big surprise there. But Bravo hasn’t announced which women will be back. Will the entire cast — Danielle, Dina, Jacqueline, Teresa and Caroline — return? Hmmm….Meantime, Bravo’s announced the next “Real Housewives” location will be Washington, DC. It will hit the air next year.

4. Brooke Shields and Jim Belushi were in a minor plane crash at Hearst Castle this past Friday. They were being flown to an event at the castle on a Cessna prop plane, which landed safely. But the pilot forgot to set the parking brake after the plane came to a stop. So as the pilot was in the back helping Brooke and Jim get out, the plane rolled into an SUV. The SUV got the worst of it and fortunately, nobody was injured.

3. SPOILER ALERT! If you have this on Tivo, skip over this story and move on to #2. Tom DeLay had to quit “Dancing With The Stars” last night because he’s suffering stress fractures in both of his feet. You’d think producers would forego elimination as a result, but no. Debi Mazar and her partner Makxim Chmerkovskiy got the boot last night.

2. Jay-Z thinks success has gone to his little protege Rihanna’s head, so he’s reportedly hired a bodyguard to watch over her. A source says Jay-Z invested his heart and soul into transforming Rihanna into a superstar, and he’s not happy that he sees photos of her out clubbing almost every night. So he’s assigned one of his own bodyguards to cover Rihanna exclusively, making sure she doesn’t wind up in trouble.

1. The Kardashians still say Khloe and Lamar Odom are legally wed, but RadarOnline.com says not only have they learned they’re not legally married, they’re only in the beginning stages of pre-nup talks. Khloe and Lamar went through with the big wedding a couple weeks ago, but they still haven’t signed the paperwork making them legally married. As far as the prenup talks go, Lamar has met with his lawyer to hash out the details, and reportedly, he’s playing hardball. Lamar doesn’t want to give Khloe half of ANYTHING. He wants to make sure the money he brings into the marriage remain his, and anything he earns post-marriage, he wants to keep for himself, too. It could be several weeks before everybody comes to a happy agreement. But a source says even though the marriage isn’t real yet, Khloe and Lamar are very much in love.

Just when you thought Jon Gosselin couldn’t get any sleazier….he has. Just as he was making his appearance on Larry King saying he wanted to save his marriage, he was draining their joint bank account of 200,000 dollars. Kate has hired big time lawyer Marty Singer to get everything back. Jon is not allowed to do what he did because there is already an existing court order that requires both of their signatures to withdraw money from the account. Jon somehow sneaked around her back and took everything but 1,000 bucks.  Apparently Jon’s lawyer, Mark Heller, has a habit of breaking legal rules. He has often had clients that are going through a divorce, drain joint bank accounts so he could be paid.

Khloe Kardashian might be Lamar Odom’s rebound wife! It turns out that Lamar was recently dating Taraji Henson just weeks leading up to hooking up with Khloe. Taraji is the actress that played Brad Pitt’s mom in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Even more surprising, there are reports that Lamar proposed to her as well, but she was scared away by his eagerness to get married! Apparently her response to Lamar was “Whoa, Slow down!” And then he met Khloe in the bar and now THEY are married! No word on if Khloe knows about this!

Kandi Burruss, one of the Real Housewife’s of Atlanta has lost her fiancée. Ashley “AJ” Jewell got into a bar fight on Friday night in the parking lot of an Atlanta strip bar and was beaten so badly that he was unconscious in the hospital. Well he passed away on Saturday from head injuries and the man responsible has been arrested.  Kandi said that she is devastated and she just lost her uncle so she is struggling.
