Kim Zolciak: Engaged to Kroy Biermann!

On last night's edition of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, NeNe Leakes inched very close to a divorce. Her castmate, meanwhile, has gone in the opposite direction.
Sources close to Kim Zolciak tell Radar Online this reality star is engaged to NFL lineman Kroy Biermann. Last week, the pair revealed its expecting a child in a few months.

Kroy Biermann's 2010 stats: 28 tackles, one sack and one fiancee.

"They are both really happy about both the baby and their engagement and cannot wait to start their new lives together," an insider said. “Kroy proposed to her and bought her a substantial ring, which she has shown to a few friends, although she is not wearing it in public yet."

Kim and Kroy are in negotiations for a spin-off show, Kendra and Hank Baskett-style.

If the spin-off doesn't go down, friends say Kim wants some leverage with Bravo when discussing a new Real Housewives of Atlanta contract, something an impending wedding and baby would provide. Yes, she's using these major life milestones as negotiating tactics.

“The other cast members are publicly backing Kim and Kroy, but privately there are some jealousies because Kim is very much in the spotlight right now and not everyone is happy about that," concluded the source.

Jersey Shore Cast Negotiating Fourth Season, Demanding Spinoffs For All

The third season of Jersey Shore hasn't even aired on MTV yet (it premieres January 6) and the cast is already angling for a fourth - and beyond.
Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, Jenni "JWoww" Farley and their trashy cohorts are already negotiating for a new season.
We know ... you were just thinking they don't get enough exposure.

MORE SHORE: Can there ever be enough?!

"The cast are all about to start talks for a new season. Producers want to film in Miami again next spring, and want to lock the cast down now," a source said.
The problem is that most, if not ALL of them plan to demand their own spinoff show as part of the deal, "as well as a large raise on their current pay." Wow.
Most likely that doesn't include Angelina Pivarnick. We hope.
MTV has discussed going the spinoff-only route - with Snooki, Pauly D and The Situation and discarding the rest - but we'll see if there's a new season too.

Irvin Kirshner Passes Away

On the heels of Leslie Nielsen's death comes another sad passing in the Hollywood community. Irvin Kershner, director The Empire Strikes Back, has died.
He was 87. The director was in his 50s when he was tapped to head the Star Wars sequel. Kershner was a teacher at USC; George Lucas was a student.
The 1980 film was by far the best of the entire series, paving the way for Return of the Jedi and decades later, an entire prequel trilogy that Lucas ruined.

R.I.P. Irvin Kirshner (1923-2010).

While the critically acclaimed, massively successful Empire Strikes Back is certainly the film for which Kershner is best remembered, his credits don't stop there.

He's also known for helming 1983's James Bond film Never Say Never Again, which saw Sean Connery return to the role of 007, Robocop II and other movies.

He did some acting in his day as well, beginning with Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ. He was actively working in photography until his death.

May he rest in peace.

With her striking red wig and fishnets, Rihanna strikes a sexy pose for the January issue of GQ UK. A pose she acknowledges some peeps are tiring of.
So she says, anyway. “Girls don’t like to see other girls dressed sexy all the time. I get that. People are always seeing my ass out and my boobs out."
"It can get a little irritating.” Hey, at least she's self-aware ...

Sarah Palin Rips Michelle Obama, Decries First Lady's Efforts to Curb Childhood Obesity

Sigh. Sarah Palin is back in the news again.
For whatever reason, the ex-Alaska Governor took First Lady Michelle Obama and her efforts to improve childhood nutrition to task on Laura Ingraham's radio show.
We know conservatives believe in smaller government, and there are strong cases to be made for that philosophy. Attacking Michelle's nutrition initiative, though?

Sarah Palin is not a fan of Michelle Obama's anti-obesity efforts.

Of the First Lady, Palin told Ingraham that "I think she has got a different worldview and she is not hesitant at all to share what her worldview is."
As for Sarah Palin's worldview, no one can make sense of it, but she does use big words like "exceptionalism" in the rant against Michelle below:
"She encapsulated what her view of America is, I believe, unless she has evolved and things have changed in the last two years, but she said it on the campaign trail twice that it was the first time that she had been proud of her country when finally people were paying attention to Barack Obama."
"I think that's appalling. We can think of this infinite number of reasons to be proud of American exceptionalism and it baffles me that anybody would have that view and then allow that view to bleed over into policy."
"Take her anti-obesity thing that she is on. She is on this kick, right. What she is telling us is she cannot trust parents to make decisions for their own children, for their own families in what we should eat."
"I'm going to be again criticized for bringing this up, but instead of a government thinking that they need to take over and make decisions for us according to some politician or politician's wife priorities, just leave us alone, get off our back, and allow us as individuals to exercise our own God-given rights to make our own decisions and then our country gets back on the right track."
Yes ... the government needs to "get off our back" for this silly "anti-obesity thing." Why encourage health when we can be as fat as we want! Freedom rules!
Aside from making it seem like nutrition is just some interest of Michelle, not a legitimate health issue that influences a host of others, should we do nothing?
Can't you encourage people to make smarter choices that benefit themselves and the public health system as a whole? How is that an evil federal takeover?

Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie Celebrate Pax's Birthday

Angelina Jolie hates Thanksgiving, but she's not a joyless person.
The actress and partner Brad Pitt treated their children to a hot air balloon ride to celebrate son Pax's birthday in Paris. The Vietnamese native turned seven!
Pax, Brad, Angelina, nine-year-old Cambodian son Maddox, five-year-old Ethiopian daughter Zahara and four-year-old biological daughter Shiloh all took part.

Brad and Angie ... Shift+R improves the quality of this image. Shift+A improves the quality of all images on this page.

PARISIAN PAIR: Brad is also promoting Megamind in Europe.

The balloon operator said: "They were like any other family. There was nothing out of the ordinary which made them any different from any other family."
He added that throughout the ride, the couple's children were "excited but very well-behaved. What I think they wanted was a little moment of peace."
"Angelina is a very beautiful woman in person. She was friendly and spoke to me. Brad is very nice and very outgoing. He played a lot with the kids."
In the early evening the cosmopolitan family also rented the Josephine riverboat from Port Debilly, near the Eiffel Tower, for a cruise on the river Seine.
A crew member said: "We made a short cruise up-river. They stayed on for about 90 minutes," aboard a boat decorated with blue and yellow balloons.
They were AWOL on Thursday, leaving the kids with nannies, but Brad and Angelina were spotted taking Shiloh and Zahara shopping in Paris Saturday.

Kardashian Kredit Kard Kanceled Kause of Krazy Kash Koncerns

The Kardashians have been ripping people off. No, we aren't referring to the fact that this family has managed to convince people to purchase its merchandise and waste hours of their lives following the exploits of utterly talentless individuals.
For now, at least, we're just talking about the credit card sponsored by Kim, Kourtney and Khloe.

Due to allegations of exorbitant, possibly illegal fees, the Kardashians have yanked their prepaid Mastercard off the market. The move is a response to the Attorney General of Connecticut actually opening up an investigation because the card might have been violating consumer protection laws.

Let's all give Sarah Palin a moment to Tweet about how the government should just leave us alone, dammit...

What were the costs associated with the card? It cost $99.95 just to use per year, while tacking on $9.95 in purchase fees along with monthly fees of $7.95. There was also:

A $1 fee to add money to the card.
A $1.50 fee to speak with a live operator regarding it.
A $2 fee per transaction for automatic bill pay.

Crazy, indeed. Those are almost as many dollar bills as Kim will see in a few years when her fame runs out and she's forced make a living by using the only two, plump assets she possesses.

Katherine Jackson Kicks Out Malcontent Grandkids

Katherine Jackson, the mother of the late Michael Jackson and the guardian of his three children, is about to clean house in more ways than one.
Renovations are being done and people are getting kicked out.
Everyone is moving out of the Jackson compound in Encino, Calif., while the house undergoes extensive renovations. Some won't be returning.

PERSONA NON GRATA: That's Alejandra Jackson (left) with ex Jermaine.

Katherine Jackson and company are in the process of packing boxes and will leave the family home in early December for several months during remodeling.
The reason this is significant is that after the "stun gun" incident in March, when Jaafar Jackson tried to taser Blanket, Katherine wanted the teenager out.
More specifically, she wanted Alejandra Jackson and her four kids - two with Jermaine and two with Randy Jackson (yup, it's weird) - to beat it for good.
Katherine and the Michael Jackson Estate generously offered Alejandra and her brood a condo MJ owned in the San Fernando Valley, but she wanted more.
The sides were therefore at an impasse. Now Katherine is not letting Alejandra back in the house after the remodeling is complete. It's condo or nothing.
Basically, Jaafar, Jermajesty, Dante and Randy, Jr. aren't returning to Hayvenhurst. It was chaos and Katherine needs to focus on Paris, Prince and Blanket.
Probably for the best.

Britney Spears Conservatorship Rollin' Into '11

Britney Spears will ring in 2011 and quite possibly beyond under the control of her father, and the conservatorship is A-O-K with all the parties involved.
There are no plans to end the conservatorship, which was created in February 2008 after the singer went off the rails, and has continued ever since.
Don't worry, though. It's not bad news for Britney.

As long as Starbucks runs are permitted, she's all good.

She's "content" with the current arrangement and is no longer antsy to end it, since Jamie Spears has given her so much more space this past year.
As for the pop superstar's business affairs, Britney Spears, Inc., has never run more smoothly, so no one sees a reason to pull the plug on that, either.
So ... there you go. No news here. How 'bout these Britney Spears pics!

Lindsay Lohan to Paparazzi: Back Off!

Lindsay Lohan wants the paparazzi to give her some space. This is no joke, or just an offhand comment she made - girl wants a restraining order up in this piece.
The star thinks she's being denied driving privileges because of all the celebrity gossip personnel on her tail and wants her lawyer to put a stop to it ASAP.
She's seeking a restraining order prohibiting them from chasing her.

DRIVING MISS CRAZY: She won't be, thanks to the paps.

The L.A. County Probation Department, along with the DMV, have given Lindsay the green light to drive again, as has the Betty Ford clinic where she lives.
But just when LiLo was supposed the get the keys to Michael's Mercedes, Betty Ford decided it was too much of a safety risk to put her behind the wheel.
The paparazzi create an unsafe driving situation, officials believe.
It's unclear if a restraining order is viable legally in this case, or if her handlers will reverse their decision, but looks like Linds is stuck in neutral for now.

Russell Brand Nixed Katy Perry-John Mayer Hookup!

Apparently John Mayer doesn't always get the girl. Thank goodness.
As if Katy Perry and Russell Brand weren't awesome enough, the zany British comic apparently rescued her from J-Mayer's clutches at the last second!
According to E! News, John and Katy were well on their way to sexy coupledom when Russell intercepted her at the 2009 VMAs and snagged KP for himself.
Russell, Katy, John

As celebrity love triangles go, this one worked out for the best.

It was love at first sight at the awards show. But just one night earlier, Perry and the douchebag met in person after weeks of trading flirty tweets and texts.
"They'd never met in person, and she went to meet him there after she was at a Jay-Z concert at Madison Square Garden," a source close to Mayer reports.
"John thought she was so hot and fun and was into her," the insider says. "They were flirty and all over each other at the bar, they really liked each other."
"They were dancing and it was on."
They stayed at the bar until late, leaving only moments apart from the downtown bar, conveniently just around the corner from Mayer's love nest. Gag.
The next day, which happened to be the VMAs, the two traded more flirty texts. But before their relationship could blossom any further, enter Brand.
As luck would have it, Russell, who was hosting the awards, was instantly taken by the "Teenage Dream" singer, openly admiring her from the stage.
She was equally smitten. The rest is history.

Amber Portwood Welcomes Home Baby Leah!

Amber Portwood and her baby Leah have reunited.
The two-year-old was under Indiana's control (as in the State of Indiana) after a very turbulent period, but officials returned her to the Teen Mom star Monday.
"Leah is moving into Amber's new home, where Amber had her daughter’s bedroom all set up," a source says. "Amber is so excited to have Leah back!"

LEAH'S HOME: Mother and daughter are together once again.

Just last week, we learned that Leah became a ward of the state, meaning decisions over where she lives falls to a judge and a government agency.
Portwood and ex-fiance Gary Shirley had earlier agreed that Leah was better off living with him for the time being. Child Protective Services agreed.
"It was safer for her to stay at Gary's because of all the photographers outside my house," Amber Portwood, who lives in Anderson, Ind., explained.
The star, who's battling serious anger issues, said living without Leah was "the lowest of the low. Every night she's been saying, 'Where's Mommy?'"
On November 18, Portwood was charged by Anderson police for attacking Shirley in front of Leah; she is faced with two felony battery charges.
Now she says she's picking up what's left of her life - or at least trying:
"I'm trying to put the pieces back together," she said. "I have to get better so when I get my baby back, she sees her mom as happy as can be."
Here's wishing her the best in that difficult, ongoing quest.

Report: Kate Gosselin Has No Friends

Despite having multiple reality shows and eight cute kids, Kate Gosselin, is a sad and lonely individual with no friends, according to a new report.
Yup, we can totally see that.
A source close to the celeb mom says that despite what she wants you to think, "The truth is Kate is very sad and lonely with few true friends."

ALL BY HERSELF: That's Kate these days. [Photo: Pacific Coast News]

When she's not watching over her kids or filming Kate Plus 8, the perfectionist is seen wasting money on tanning, getting her nails done or visiting NYC salons.
Moreover, she has a dedicated routine routine of grueling jogs to relieve stress and keep herself in tip-top condition, but even that's coming at a heavy price.
"Even her kids have noticed that their mom is sometimes too tired to play with them when the cameras are not rolling," the Gosselin family source said.
Her only confidant? Steve Neild.
"Her bodyguard, Steve Neild is the closest person to her, but he's married with two kids of his own," the source said. "Steve lives in the basement of her home and accompanies Kate everywhere, but they deny there is anything going on."
They always have, and they're likely isn't anything romantic, but regardless, Neild is about all she's got when it comes to adult, personal relationships.
"Apart from Steve she does not have many friends to confide in or just go out with ... she does not have the best relationship with her family either."
Even locals in the neighborhood have become judgmental.
"She is not popular at the local stores, post office or car wash ... she cannot win people over and comes across as cold and aloof," the source said.
Pretty much. Jon Gosselin knows it all too well.
"Kate finds it hard to be friendly towards people and is very domineering - she is pre-occupied with looking her best and keeping-up appearances."
It's true, she does her best to make it seem like she's got the family thing under control. Sadly, making the kids eat rotten food doesn't qualify.

NeNe Leakes on Marital Woes: Pray for Me!!!

As viewers of this week's Real Housewives of Atlanta are aware, NeNe Leakes is facing serious marital difficulties with husband Gregg. That's what happens when your man is a backstabber, as detailed in this THG review.
Now, in a blog post titled "The Breaking Point," Leakes updates fans on the status of her relationship with Gregg. Spoiler alert: things aren't going well...

Gregg and I have held it together for years, but my breaking point has come. I’m one hell of a woman, and I am nobody’s fool. When the person you love and trust betrays you, it has got to be one of the worst feelings. Having that moment with Gregg was so much bigger than you saw. I was really hurting!

Gregg is a good guy, but that doesn’t mean Gregg is a good husband. All I can say is, I’m tired! Only I know what I’ve been through! My happiness and independence means everything to me, and I want to follow my heart, but I’m scared! I’m taking baby steps, but I hope I’ve been brave enough for all the women that couldn’t! I hope I was able to show my children what a strong woman looks like and stands for! I will only accept loyalty and trust! My happiness is everything to me!

Keep me in your prayers, and thank you for all the love and support during this really trying time for me!

Hear that, God? Stop messing with Steve Johnson and help NeNe out!

Brangelina Goes AWOL on Thanksgiving

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt did their thing on Thanksgiving.
What that was, we have absolutely no idea, but it appears their kinds hung out on the beach for the holiday Angelina loathes, parents nowhere in sight.
Pax, Shiloh, Zahara, Knox and Vivienne were all spotted at the beach, accompanied by their nannies on Thanksgiving. No sign of Ange or of Brad Pitt.

REWRITING HISTORY: Brangelina will have none of it.

Pitt did comment earlier that the family would be overseas, but did not mention specific plans. Likely because Angelina Jolie hates Thanksgiving.
“Angelina Jolie hates this holiday and wants no part in rewriting history like many other Americans,” a source said of her perception of the day.
“To celebrate what the white settlers did to the native Indians, the domination of one culture over another, just isn’t her style at all."
Apparently she put her money where her mouth is, at least.

BRIGHTER DAYS: Kate Gosselin has seen them.

We're not criticizing the tanning industry overall, but it seems like a waste of money when you've got eight mouths to feed and limited income, no?

Kate, who recently admitted that her kids are under pressure lately, yet shows no apparent inclination to do anything about that, spent Thanksgiving day with the enormous brood before handing them off to their deadbeat dad.

Kardashian Konfidential Konfessions: Khloe's Virginity, Kim's Krush and More!

Kritics of Kardashian Konfidential have understandably wondered:
What could Kourtney, Khloe and Kim possibly reveal in this "sisterhood autobiography?" The siblings blog about every aspect of their lives and let cameras film such intimate moments as a bikini wax.
But we've (unfortunately) read the book and can state that it actually does contain a few juicy tidbits. Why should the public care about when Khloe lost her virginity? We have no idea. Still, it's one of several items we learned from the tome and report on below.

1. Khloe gave it up to an older man when she was 14. She used to steal Bruce Jenner's car and drive to secret sex sessions with this boyfriend, but tells readers NOT to be like her: "You should never, ever have sex when you're that young," her ghost writer she writes. "Feeling rushed and pressured and unsure should have been my clue that I wasn't ready to take that step."

2. Kourtney needs to be perfect. At least when it comes to organization. She writes about needing everything in her fridge lined up in a certain away; same for glasses and dishes. She also "has to have" pink dish gloves and the same style of hangars throughout the house.

3. Kim has a woman crush on Jennifer Lopez. She describes her first, nervous meeting with the singer/actress and how J. Lo "made me think it was sexy to have a big booty." Looks like someone will be watching American Idol this season.

4. Kim encourages you to talk to her. Saying she gets "excited" to see fans dressed in her style, this sister adds: "I like being myself, I don't want to be unapproachable."

This is especially true if you're famous and/or a professional athlete.

Oksana Grigorieva to Mel Gibson: U Still Love Me!

For a woman claiming she feared for her life, Oksana Grigorieva sure wrote some interesting things to Mel Gibson. Interesting emails, to be more precise.
In the months following their nuclear argument on January 6, she sounds very much like a woman scorned and not ... well, a woman fearing for her life.
The emails are significant for this reason. In them, Oksana appears in search of answers, if not in hot pursuit of Mel Gibson. Hardly fearful or threatened.

If Oksana feared Mel, she had a funny way of showing it.

Oksana, on March 30: "I don't belive (sic) that u stopped loving me just in one phonecall. U either stopped loving me a long time ago or u still love me."
Oksana, on May 2: "Until this morning I was still missing you so much and secretly wanted and hoped for us to be together again ... I still believed that you loved me."
"Now I dont. I think you knew what was going on."
"Love like that doesn't die so quickly."
Oksana, who needs to work on spelling, accuses Mel's estranged wife, Robyn Gibson, and daughter, Hanna, of turning Mel against her, writing, "... it's easier to blame the outsider, ur love, completely unpretected (sic). So u betray me."
In the May 2 email, Oksana Grigorieva says: "I see now, that you seemply (sic) growen (sic) tired of me a while ago, but you were too weak to tell me."
Her lawyers say she taped Mel Gibson on the phone February 18 because she feared for her life. Maybe so, but she certainly doesn't seem scared here.

Tiger Woods Tweets Love For Kids, Pie

Tiger Woods has come a long way since last Thanksgiving.
Last year, there was a car crash, a likely 9-iron to the grill and a series of revelations that led to him being crowned THG's Biggest Turkey of the year.
His fake, perfect life unraveled that infamous night. This Thanksgiving, though? Just some fake Tweets about his new low-key, family-oriented life.

FACADE: The star's seemingly perfect life was anything but.

With Elin Nordegren long gone, Tiges spent a quiet holiday with his two kids, Sam, 3, and Charlie, 1½ and his mother, Kultida, a source reports.
Sounds like it went well. "I just finished a pretty tough cardio session this morning because of all the apple and pumpkin pie," the golfer Tweeted.
No word if he went creepin' on random hoes later.
True or not (you never know with Mr. Corporate), the guy clearly wants us to think he's reflected on life and is focusing on what's truly important.
It's probably accurate, at least to a point. Hard not to reexamine your life after all that. Here's hoping Woods has turned the corner internally.

Celebrities to Spurn Twitter, Facebook For Charity

Alicia Keys, Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake and Usher are going dark.
All in the name of charity. The aforementioned foursome and others are signing off Twitter and Facebook Tuesday until they raise $1 million for World AIDS Day.
Keys' charity, Keep A Child Alive, is staging a campaign that will have celebs such as Lady GaGa, Justin Timberlake, and Usher signing off of all social media.

PEACE OUT: Donate money or Usher won't be back on Twitter!

The "Digital Life Sacrifice" will feature the stars' filming "last tweet and testament" videos which will show them lying coffins to represent their "digital death."
"It's really important and super-cool to use mediums that we naturally are on," Keys said. "It's so important to shock you to the point of waking up."
"It's not that people don't care or it's not that people don't want to do something, it's that they never thought of it quite like that. This is direct, instantly emotional way, a little sarcastic too, as a way to get people to pay attention."
Leigh Blake, President and co-founder of Keep A Child Alive, says:
"We're trying to sort of make the remark: Why do we care so much about the death of one celebrity as opposed to millions and millions of people dying in the place that we're all from? It's about love and respect and human dignity."
She also added that "Lady Gaga is going to raise it all by herself."
"She's got a very, very mobilized fan base and that's beautiful to watch I think ... she's able to draw their attention to these issues that are very important, you know, so that people follow it and act," she says of the Little Monsters.
We wouldn't doubt it.

Brooke Mueller Claims to Be Happy, Healthy

Over the weekend, reports surfaced that Brooke Mueller was downing a lot more than cranberry sauce.
Photos of Charlie Sheen's ex-wife were taken of her exiting a hotel, looking disheveled and, reportedly, on her way to rehab. But Mueller has now shot down this claim as "ridiculous" and added: "I am happy and healthy."
She also really is filming an Oxygen reality show with Paris Hilton. That remains hard to fathom.

Of course, if Mueller was out drinking, it would be easy to understand. She should be celebrating every second she has free from Sheen and his wild, dangerous lifestyle.

But a source tells Us Weekly she is "clean and sober. Everything is going really well for her. She is focusing on the twins and being a good mom. She is really excited about her new show with Paris."

Well, sure. If there's any guaranteed way to remain sober and focused on raising two young children, it's by filming a reality series with Paris Hilton.

Willie Nelson Arrested For Marijuana Possession

Legendary singer Willie Nelson was busted over the weekend in Texas for possession of six ounces of marijuana. Wait ... Willie Nelson smokes pot? Who knew.
Nelson’s tour bus pulled into a routine checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Tex. and in an astonishing feat of law enforcement, an officer noticed a familiar herb smell.
Hudspeth County Sheriff Arvin West said: “It’s kind of surprising, but I mean we treat him like anybody else." And by surprising, he probably means not at all.

It wasn't Willie Nelson's first drug bust. Nor will it be the last.

As much of a joke as this sounds like, a criminal defense attorney in Austin says six ounces of pot could get Willie six months minimum and up to two years.
But Bruce Margolin, director of the L.A. chapter of NORML, thinks he has a defense that could spring the 77-year-old crooner by tracing the weed to Cali.
Specifically, Nelson can claim he forgot the California-grown pot was on the bus. The Golden State is cool with medicinal marijuana, after all. Stay tuned.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Welcome Mr. Luscious, Share Sex Stories

Who likes anal sex? Who could go for just a tad bit of oral? These answers and a lot more await readers who peruse our intern's latest recap of The Real Housewives of Atlanta...
Talk about a booming episode! Kandi has moved her Kandi Koated Nights webcast over to her boutique, TAGS, for some self-promotion. Nene, Kim and Sheree are her guests on a particularly raunchy segment. Cynthia even shows up to get sex tips. But the girls got more than they bargained because Kandi apparently is getting her jollies these days by asking freakier and freakier questions.
What's your freak number? Have you ever peed on anyone? Sheree's willing to experiment, so she's a 9. Kim doesn't mind anal, so that makes her a 7. Nene's into just a little oral, so she's a 3. Cynthia's a 6. The girls are then treated to a triple X visit from Mr. Luscious, a Hulk-like chocolate stripper with a humongous "sock."

Cynthia takes 50-year-old Peter and her personal stylist to meet with Tony Conway, Atlanta's top celebrity event planner, to discuss her dream wedding.

Going for a silver-and-chocolate themed, candle-lit evening motif with a mix of antique and modern, the planner promises 50-year-old Peter that he'll keep the budget under one million. Gotta make it extra special for Cynthia... and Atlanta, of course!

Nene goes with her friend to meet with Randy Kessler, a top divorce lawyer in Atlanta. She and Gregg are definitely not in a good place. Nene's doing her research and needs some advice. She needs time to decide what to do about this situation and wants this to be a wake up call for Gregg. Looking to scare him straight, she decides to file for divorce. Game on!

Kim takes 13-year-old Brielle shopping for an abstinence ring. The fugly brat is scared of STDs and an unplanned pregnancy (ironic, huh?) and decides that a $3,000 diamond encrusted ring should do the job of snapping those legs shut. Apparently, though, there's no hope for eight-year-old Ariana who, according to Kim, "came out of the womb looking for a man."

Kandi goes into the studio to rework "The Ring Don't Mean A Thing" and is still annoyed that she's not making any money off "Tardy for the Party." She records a new version of the song for Kim to approve and basically decides Kim can lump it if she doesn't like it. There are plenty of real artists out there who will actually PAY good money for the song.

Phaedra and Apollo come home from Augusta with little Aydan Adonis. Phaedra had to spend a week in the hospital and now she's ready to face motherhood. No longer "fancy free and footloose," she's chained to this baby. Due to complications arising from her C-section, Apollo has to literally carry Phaedra around the house.

Kim and Nene get together to discuss their marital woes. Well, Nene's the only married one, but as usual Kim makes the conversation all about her and tells Nene that she's getting to the point of being done with Big Poppa. She wants a future with an available man and may even want more kids. Flash forward to the present, Kim. Wish granted!

While over at Kim's parents home with her mom and aunt, Kandi hears about Gregg's radio interview with a local DJ from Kim. Listening to it on an iPad, Kandi's shocked at Gregg's utter lack of indiscretion. Gregg not only accuses Nene of using him but claims to have invested $300K in making Nene a "star." Sheree and ladyboy Lawrence also hear about the interview and are flabbergasted and fascinated. Did Gregg know he was being recorded? Even so, how can you be so stupid and discuss such intimate things with a total stranger?

Kandi doubts Nene will reconcile with Gregg after hearing about this.

Sheree and Lawrence are doing a boxing workout where Lawrence asks Sheree about the Love Doctor. Has Sheree confronted the defensive fake doctor yet? Hang on, Ladyboy. It's coming!

Kandi drags Kim out to her car and demos the new and improved "The Ring Don't Mean A Thing" for her. Surprise: Kim loves it! She tells Kandi she never doubted her for a moment. She just wanted to get her way. Thanks for the input, Quincy.

Sheree finally confronts the Love Doctor while at an outdoor lunch. There's no communication, no trust and no honesty in this "relationship" so Sheree wants out. Realizing that the "doctor" is a tit-for-tat kinda guy, Sheree just wants some kind of proof that he's a doctor. The Love Doctor wants some kind of proof that Sheree's a woman. What?!? Time to hit the bricks, dude. And, by the way, who's paying for lunch?

Nene's first day at work is going along pretty well. Breaking in her new laptop and doing some online research, she sees her own face in a local gossip item. Gregg's backstabbing hits her full on. Nene laughs it off, but inside she's dying. Nene also learns she can be fired for this because contractually it puts her in a bad light. 11 Alive's anchor, Karyn Green, tells Nene she better handle this with Gregg. Obviously something's wrong because "dogs don't bark at parked cars."

Nene and Gregg get into a huge nasty fight when Nene comes home from her first day on the job. How can Gregg have done this to her? What $300K? Nene throws everything back in Gregg's face and wants what she's invested in him back, as well. The argument escalates into a he-said/she-said debacle, which is shocking. Nene's pissed that Gregg obviously never had her back and realizes she doesn't know this person standing in front of her. Gregg accuses Nene of the same thing. Nene is beyond livid and says she's married to a monster.

Game over.

Should Susan Boyle Sing at the Royal Wedding?

He's already a reality show judge and record producer. But Simon Cowell is looking to add another title to his resume: wedding planner.
Speaking to Extra, Cowell offered up an idea for who should sing at the royal nuptials between Prince William and Kate Middleton.
"Susan Boyle would be perfect," said the former American Idol panelist, adding that Boyle's "I Dreamed a Dream" would be the ideal wedding song for the pair.

As the world knows by now, William and Kate got engaged last month and have scheduled their exchanging of vows to take place at Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011. Billions are expected to watch on television.

Would Boyle be able to handle that pressure? Do you think she'd made a good choice to sing at the reception?

Bristol Palin Should've Won Dancing With the Stars!

LOL. No, we don't really believe the above headline.
Jennifer Grey is as worthy a Dancing With the Stars champion as they come. But Bristol Palin, for all that was said about her, got kind of a bad rap.
Her third-place finish was, in the opinion of many pundits and Palin haters, waaay too high. But was it actually just about right ... or not high enough?

America's collective reaction to Bristol's DWTS run.

We've talked at length about why she should have gone home sooner, but now, let's give the girl her due. Here's a list of reasons Bristol deserved to win it ...
