Kendra Wilkinson to Go Dancing With the Stars?

Dancing With the Stars may have lost out on its top target in Lindsay Lohan, but sources say another major "get" may be imminent: Kendra Wilkinson.
Kendra was approached by ABC and met with execs, E! reports. "Her personality, combined with her ability to dance, is appealing," a source says.
Off the record, her breasts don't hurt, they probably thought. Also, the quota of at least one former Playboy centerfold per year must be adhered to.

GO KENDRA: Will Mrs. Baskett catch DWTS fever?
Less than a year ago, on the Today show, she didn't mince her words about the reality competition, saying she would likely pass because she's a hands-on mom.
Fast forward 10 months and the money may do the talking for K-Dubs. It's not like they can count on big paydays and job security from Hank. No offense, Hank.
Besides, what better way to stir up fake divorce drama than dancing suggestively with Maksim Chmerkovskiy? In Touch Weekly just started salivating at that.
ABC's official line is that it won't comment on casting rumors, but the new season will kick off in March, so we should hear one way or the other soon.

Doctors Stunned, Impressed by Recovery of Gabrielle Giffords

With a nation rallying behind her, Gabrielle Giffords is recovering at a rapid, awe-inducing pace from the tragic events of last weekend.
The Congresswoman is already sitting up and communicating with her hands, facts that have stunned doctors at Tucson's University Medical Center.
"She is able to move both of her legs on command," says neurosurgeon Michael Lemole. "That's huge. We say, 'Gabrielle, lift your legs up,' and she lifts both of them up."

As detailed Tuesday night by President Barack Obama, Giffords opened her eyes for the first time since the shooting soon after he paid her a hospital visit.
"That implies that the part of the brain that lets us awake from sleeping, the arousal center, is functioning," says Lemole. "Miracles happen every day. A lot of medicine is outside of our control, so we're wise to acknowledge miracles."
The surgeon concluded that the goal is to get Giffords sitting in a chair by the end of this weekend.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Review: Really Bad Grammer...

It's taken us almost a full season, but THG has finally found someone willing to cover The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. It hasn't been easy. Most critics can't keep their dinner down as they watch this revolting nonsense.
But how did one intern respond to the events from last night? Find out now...
Lisa reminds me of Dynasty and an era when pink lipstick and coifs were en vogue.  Can I keep you, Lisa Vanderpump?
Housewives of Beverly Hills
Oh, Camille.  Kelsey calls you in the middle of the night to tell you he wants out (just like that scene from The Starter Wife).  Then, he appeases you by suggesting a romantic weekend to get back on track.  Time to bow out and take your cut of the profits.  Kelsey's taking you for a ride.
"You look a little..."
"A little tired? A little thin? Have you noticed that I've lost a little weight?"
No, but keep talking about your appearance.  Whatever gets you through these hard times.  Speaking of which,  where is Nick?
What's this? Is Kim stepping back into the limelight?  Did she just tell Disney On Demand that she's over being a mom?  You mean we don't have to feel sorry for Kim anymore because her life revolves around her children who have no interest in being around her?  You're not broken, Kim!  You're just a little damaged.
God bless Adrienne's husband, Paul.  He had his nose broken not once but TWICE by his young son during the season.  Why did Adrienne bring Paul shopping? Awful idea to bring your husband shopping. 
"There's too many clothes."
"Come on, man!." 
"Adrienne, go take look at that clearance rack."
Cedric sets up tea time in an attempt to linger longer at Chateau Vanderpump.  What kind of a tea set is that, Lisa?   I think I have a lunch box with the same pattern.
It's Farrah's big day and Portia just wants to take a bath in peace.  She could care less what Kyle wears to the ceremony.  Bath time is quiet time.  Why doesn't anyone get that?
A Camille Toast
I feel for Camille.  I really do.  She really chapped my ass this entire season, but when you're down, you're down.  Camille's showing humanity and I appreciate that. 
I LOVE MAURICIO.  I LOVE HIM.
Portia, you have some pasta sauce on your face.
What's going on with Paul and Adrienne's impromptu marriage counseling at Farrah's graduation lunch?  Mauricio's mom, Estella, is not on the clock.  And, Adrienne, it's so unlike you to air your dirty laundry on camera.  Wait, now the conversation just turned to a face lift for Estella.  I'm confused.
Who let Kim stand up to speak?
The last four minutes of the episode were the four most frustrating minutes of the season.  How do you put on a happy face for your husband who dumped you, then asked that you accompany him to the Tony Awards?  Tell him to have a blast at the ceremony and to call when your severance for the last thirteen years is in the mail. 
Stop acting like everything is great.  Don't compliment him.  Don't tell him you love him.  He doesn't deserve that.  He's with another woman.  Like my mother always said: "They never leave a warm bed for a cold one."  Think about that before you put on the red dress.  Not to mention you can't even go back to that 3,500 square foot shoebox Kelsey calls home because he won't allow it.  What a crock.
Nick is there, so it's alright.  Go ahead and kiss him on the lips while his wife idly stands by. 
Next week oughta be good. How many times have you wanted to tackle your sister for making your blood boil? Never? Me neither...

Jersey Shore Recap: Sammi is the New Angelina

Sammi Giancola has become that which she abhors.
Granted, as a miserable human being and very painful individual, Sammi Giancola abhors a great many things. But Angelina Pivarnick might top the list.
Having turned herself into the house pariah and destined to hitch a ride out of town before long, Sammi has morphed into Ange 2.0. It's sad and wonderful.
As always, THG breaks down all the best Jersey Shore quotes and scenes from last night's installment of the "reality" show in its patented +/- recap below:
Fists of Fury
Last week's epic smackdown resumes in the opening moments.
Plus 16 for the resumption of the fight that ended last week's season premiere. Girl pulled out some of JWoww's hair. Not a wise move if you want to live.
The boys go to the gym. Having no friends, Sam tries to go with. Minus 5.
Ronnie and Sammi seem to hate Jersey Shore more than the faction of fans on THG's Facebook who want to GET THIS TRASH OFF THE AIR!!!!!!!!!! Plus 7.
Angelina made a better Angelina than Sam, we're thinking. Minus 4.
Snooki can fit into a suitcase. This is definitely useful to know and not all that surprising. Can we check that bag on a one-way flight to Bangkok? Plus 6.
Little Baggage
Hope the airlines don't accidentally lose this baggage ...
Vinny raps the t-shirt time theme song. Sorry, but it's no Pauly D. Minus 3.
At the club some girl started following Vinny around. Complete stalker style. Just creepy stuff, but Plus 2 for his line about her being the parasite. Spot on.
JWoww, wasted, calls boyfriend Tom to learn she forgot it was their anniversary. No wonder dude is threatening to leak those JWoww nude pics now. Minus 10.
The scene where JWoww finds Snooki hiding in the bush must have been like what explorers felt braving the jungles of Africa in the mid-20th Century. Plus 7.
Naturally, The Situation tries to move in on Vinny's girl. Again. Minus 9.
The Outcast
Sammi is the new outcast, and mostly by choice.
No matter what nonsense Sitch pulls from time to time, he has always been about the "family," and remains surprisingly well-liked because of it. Plus 8.
Sammi, being the diva that she is, basically said she could care less that she missed out on family dinner, which doesn't sit well with the gang. Minus 6.
Deena on herself and BFF Snooki: "We're the exact same size, same body shape kind of, we're such a blast!" In a glass, you could even say. Plus 4.
Sammi Giancola and Ronnie Magro have one of their epic arguments, rehashing everything in Miami. Man, could these two suck any more? Minus 13.
In conclusion, a full episode just about Snooki and Deena trying to get the kickball back - with an assist from Vinny - would be worth watching. Plus 5.
TOTAL: +5. SEASON TOTAL: +35.
