Dancing with the Stars Recap


The Dancing with the Stars judges doled out many a 10 Monday, as Nicole Scherzinger and Evan Lysacek each pulled in perfect scores and Erin Andrews close.

Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger earned a 30 on her Tango, and a 29 on her Cha Cha for a 59. Evan Foxtrotted (30) and Paso Dobled (29) his way to a 59 too.

Erin Andrews nearly achieved perfection with her own Paso (29), only to have Bruno call out her partner, Maksim Chmerkovskiy for a minor slip-up at the end.

"You were the one who [bleeped] up!" the judge explained.

On her previous dance, Bruno accidentally held up his 10 paddle for Erin, even though he entered and said nine. Maks dramatically fell to the floor laughing.

The judges sort of gave the shaft to Chad Ochocinco by disparaging a marvelous samba with an underwhelming 25. Are they trying to ensure he gets ousted?



Nicole Scherzinger and Evan Lysacek soared over the competition.

Ochocinco may not be on par with the remaining dancers, but he proved he belonged last night, and his scores seem unfairly skewed in comparison to the rest.

Barring a huge surprise, Chad will be leaving tonight. Should he? Do you think last night was scored fairly? Here's the full Dancing with the Stars scorecard:

Evan Lysacek and Anna Trebunskaya: Foxtrot: 29 (10-9-10). Paso Doble: 30 (10-10-10). Total: 59.
Nicole Scherzinger and Derek Hough: Tango: 30 (10-10-10). Cha Cha: 29 (10-9-10). Total: 59.
Erin Andrews and Maksim Chmerkovskiy: Waltz: 27 (9-9-9). Paso Doble: 29 (10-9-10). Total: 56.
Chad Ochocinco and Cheryl Burke: Waltz: 27 (9-9-9). Samba: 25 (8-8-9). Total: 52.

Staying on Sitcom, Yearning to Smoke


It's always nice to see an alleged wife beater, liar and drug user rewarded with millions of dollars, isn't it?

Following a series of contract negotiations, Charlie Sheen and CBS have reached a new deal that will keep the trouble actor on Two and a Half Men for at least two more seasons. Thank goodness, too. What would we have done without this incredibly lame sitcom otherwise?

“To put a fitting end on the two and one-half months of whirlwind speculation, I’m looking forward to returning to my CBS home on Monday nights,” Sheen said in a statement.

The terms of the contract have not been disclosed, but rumors state Sheen may make as much as $1.3 million per episode.



As for the charges that he assaulted (soon-to-be-ex) wife Brooke Mueller in December, sources say a plea bargain is on the table that would have Sheen serving 45 days in Aspen's Pitkin County Jail.

There's just one hold-up, Us Weekly claims: The actor's lawyer has been asking local law enforcement to make an exception to the jail's no-smoking policy. We're not making that up.

Multiple insiders confirm the Aspen County District Attorney has offered Sheen a deal that would place him behind bars for six weeks. In exchange, prosecutors would drop the felony charge in return for a misdemeanor guilty plea.

However, Sheen's legal team wants to limit the amount of probation/parole so that if the stars gets in trouble again, he won't end up in jail for a lot longer.

Sorry, that should read WHEN the star gets in trouble again.

Sex Tape, Schmex Tape!


Not only does a Kendra Wilkinson sex tape exists, but we've seen naked photos from it. Sort of hot stuff!

But while the Internet is buzzing over this video and horny men around the world count down the days until its early June release, those closest to Kendra couldn't care less.

Said Kendra’s father-in-law about the development: “I will always stand by Hank and Kendra. Kendra is a great mom. You know, she’s awesome and she loves her family and that’s all that matters.”

Also on Wilkinson's side? Kendra’s mother, Patty, and brother, Collin.

“No one wants their daughter or sister to be seen like that, but they don’t fault Kendra for things she’s done in the past. They understand that everyone makes mistakes,” an insider told OK! Weekly. “They just see this whole sex tape thing as someone’s idea of a way to make money now that Kendra is so famous. Honestly, they aren’t surprised.”

Nor should they be. Kendra herself is the one who wants to make money off it.

Not surprisingly, a pair of women that have made a living off getting naked are also behind Kendra. Said a source of Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt:

“Holly’s been emailing and texting her to keep her head up. Bridget’s been doing the same. She knows firsthand that the past can come back to haunt you. Neither of them are making any judgments. They’re like sisters. They support each other.”

Sort of like how Kendra's ex-boyfriend, Justin, supports her in the video, up against a wall and... nevermind.

Adam Lambert, Justin Bieber and Ke$ha


Music's hottest stars were all in one place on Saturday night.

On the red carpet of KIIS-FM's Wango Tango concert at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, there was Adam Lambert, dressed down for a change (i.e. no spikes or sparkles).

There was Ke$ha, posing for pictures with an unusual guest under her arm (see below).

There was Justin Bieber, ever cuter than a button, stopping for photos with the singer who discovered him:

Kellan Lutz: Hot Underwear


There's a chance that Kellan Lutz might not appear in the final installment of The Twilight Saga. He and Ashley Greene are holding out for a major salary bump.

Why does this bother movie fans so much? In two words: Look. Below.



The hunky actor appeared at a Macy's in New York City this weekend to show off his body and his new gig as a spokesman for Calvin Klein.

If anyone in Hollywood knows how to wear a white t-shirt better than Lutz, we haven't met him yet...

Miss USA Rima Fakih


Years before she became the first Muslim-American to win the Miss USA crown, Rima Fakih won another prestigious title - "Stripper 101" pole dancing champion!

Back in 2007, the sexy, newly-minuted beauty pageant queen dominated a stripper contest for local Detroit radio morning show called Mojo in the Morning.

Forget the prizes won last night. Rima Fakih earned fabulous prizes for the stripper victory: "jewelry, gift cards, adult toys and a stripper pole for home use."

Top that, Donald Trump!

Tiger and Elin Woods



Tiger Woods and wife Elin are no longer speaking to each other, according to new reports that cite no named sources, but are probably believable anyway.

Both have hired divorce lawyers and things have gotten so bad that the couple uses intermediaries to communicate, a source close to both of them claims.

She's fighting for the kids in private, but tries to keep their children protected from their deteriorating marriage. Thus, Tiger and Elin refrain from arguing.

They also refrain from speaking to one another, period.

“Elin has the nannies take the children back and forth,” one source said regarding how the children are moved to and from Tiger and Elin Woods' homes.

Elin moved out of the home they shared and into a rented house about a mile away. One of Tiger’s employees goes over logistics and schedules with her.



Relations between Tiger and Elin Woods? Not exactly cordial.

“They’ve had no conflict over the kids but they’ve also had no contact,” the source said. “Elin Woods has made it very clear this is the way she wants it.”

Elin stopped going into Tiger’s house when dropping off the children, and now has their nannies take the children from house to house during the day.

“They don’t speak anymore,” the source said, noting that the relationship is growing worse. “Even on the rare times when they see each other in person.”

Elin has taken four trips away from Tiger in the past several weeks, including one to her native country (she's rumored to be moving to Sweden for good).

She stopped putting out a while ago too.

When Tiger announced his return to golf, Elin believed he wasn’t sincere about changing his life. Prior to that, it appeared the marriage could be saved.

Despite the fact that both sides have lawyers and barbs have already been traded in the looming split, there has been no Tiger Woods divorce filing. Yet.
