Finally!

Months after rumors surfaced about former Real Housewife of New York, Bethenny Frankel, getting her own daytime talk show, sources report that the Forbes Magazine covergirl is in the process of shooting a pilot!

Filming for the Telepictures production began earlier this month and Frankel is already getting help from some other daytime heavy hitters – including everyone’s favorite hostess with the most-es, Ellen DeGeneres.

In an interview with The HollyWood Reporter earlier this year, Frankel says the move to daytime TV is one that she’s wanted to pursue for a long time.

I want to be on TV in a format where I can have a longer conversation with my fans rather than 140 characters on Twitter… It probably will be a talk show.

Move over Oprah!  Oh wait, you already did…

NY Rep. Anthony Weiner just officially announced his resignation from Congress in a press conference held at his home district of Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn in New York on Thursday (June 16).

“I’m here to apologize for the personal mistakes I have made and the embarrassment that I have caused,” Weiner said. “I had hoped to continue the work the citizens in my district had elected me to do. The distraction I have created has made that impossible.”

Weiner, who is married to Huma Abedin, was caught in a major sexting scandal and forced to resign as several Democratic leaders asked for him to set down immediately. A few days ago, Weiner announced he would be taking a leave of absence to seek treatment.

When the 46 year-old finally confirmed he was resigning, people in the audience applauded and some even heckled the fallen politician. Other people in the room started shooting some inappropriate questions as Weiner tried to conclude his short speech.

Benjy Bronk from the Howard Stern Show, screamed, “Are you more than 7 inches?” Another screamed, “Yeah, get out of here pervert.” As he walked out, one heckler asked, “Will you maintain your hot physique?”

We might have just witnessed the death of Anthony Weiner’s promising career over a stupid and embarrassing sexting scandal… America is the epitome of moral hypocrisy. God bless the Queen! America!

Former Playmate Crystal Harris decided to call off her wedding to Hugh Hefner just a few days before the big day, which didn’t give Playboy Magazine enough time to edit their Mrs. Crystal Hefner cover featuring the “runaway bride”.

Hugh decided to give the flopped cover of the upcoming July 2011 issue a makeover with a big red sticker that reads “Runaway Bride In This Issue” (see picture below). Hugh tweeted, “Recent events call for a special sticker on the July cover. Look for it on newsstands.” Awesome!

Mrs. Crystal Hefner no more! The 25 year-old decided to dump Hugh the day her debut single dropped on iTunes, and the day before Playboy officially unveiled their special “America’s Princess: Introducing Mrs. Crystal Hefner”. That’s what I call impeccable timing!

Bad girl for life! Former Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen, who is now totally focused on her music career after leaving the CW hit show, must have forgotten to wear a bra as she lifted up her shirt to flash the crowd during the Pretty Reckless performance at the Download Festival in Castle, Donington, England.

The 17 year-old jailbait had the decency to cover up her nipples with black electrical tape. OUCH! Taylor usually goes for the no pants, cheap trashy lingerie look, but this time the singer shocked us by wearing pants and a shirt that was not big enough to cover her boobies.

Taylor’s inappropriate antics bring nothing new to her music or her style. She just looks like an awful and predictable trainwreck! A few months ago, Taylor said about her style: “I don’t care what people have to say about my style. Fashion’s not for everyone. I’m not asking you to wear it.”

Where are this girl’s parents? I know it’s not easy to control teenagers with a big personality, but Taylor is more than uncontrollable – she is dangerously inappropriate! Can’t she be arrested for child pornography? She is selling her image and flashing whoever for attention.

Oscar-winning actress Natalie Portman welcomed her first child, a healthy baby boy, whose name remains unknown, with her fiancé Benjamin Millepied. The couple still hasn’t officially offered more details or even confirmed the birth.

Hugh Hefner’s ex-fiancée, Crystal Harris, went on KIIS FM with Ryan Seacrest this morning to discuss her broken engagement with the king of the Playboy Bunnies.

Crystal said that she was ready to move on with her life and that living at the Playboy Mansion,

Isn’t the lifestyle for me. Multiple girls around all the time. The Playboy lifestyle. I just wanted to be true to myself.

Harris also told Seacrest that Hef was only interested in marrying her because he believe that it was what she wanted – not because he truly wanted to spend the rest of his life with her.  According to Crystal, her hubby-to-be was actually relieved that the wedding was canceled.

Is this guy really worried about having to share a bed with only one woman for the “rest of his life”?  Hey Hef – YOU’RE 86 YEARS OLD!  Consider yourself lucky that anyone wants to crawl into that bed at all!

Dallas Maverick’s star, DeShawn Stevenson, was arrested in Irving, Texas last night for public intoxication.

#92 was allegedly wandering around an apartment complex, not his apartment complex mind you, when police were called to the scene.  Stevenson could only tell the arresting officers that he was “lost” before (not surprisingly) flunking the field sobriety test.

The officers who arrested the 6’5″ guard, claimed they hauled him down to the station because they, ‘felt he was a danger to himself and others.’

If by “others” they meant, LeBron James, then yes, he was.  Ooooh snap!

Stevenson posted his own $475 bail early this morning.

American Idol’s 10th season may have just wrapped, but judges Randy Jackson, Stephen Tyler and Jennifer Lopez are already thinking about next year.  And it looks like the show may have to go on without Ms. Lopez!

Although Idol producers are not forcing any of the judges to make a decision just yet, according to an interview with BBC Radio, Jennifer is already thinking about not returning for the show’s 11th season.

I haven’t been forced to make a decision and I’m glad about that because honestly I’m very on the fence about it… I loved it, but I have a lot of other things happening, and it’s going to come down to me making a choice of what I want to do for the next year.

Lopez, who reportedly made a cool $12 million dollars for her role on this year’s Idol, may elect to focus on a project she’s spearheading with the help of hubby Marc Anthony: ”Que ‘Viva!: The Chosen” A show that will focus on undiscovered vocal talent south of the border.

Why don’t you two just this pet project what it actually is… Latin American Idol.

The departure of former idol judge, Paula Abdul, left an empty female judge’s chair and with Lopez’s extensive performance background, the exceedingly popular Mrs. Anthony seemed like the perfect choice to fill the void.  However, controversy surrounding feuds between Lopez and some of the female contestants certainly doesn’t fit the “Mrs. Nice Guy” role that Abdul played so well.

I say, let JLo go!  Vote Bethenny Frankel for Idol Judge 2012!

Politican John Edwards was once the young, promising golden boy of the Democrat party. He was the Vice Presidential nominee when Senator John Kerry ran for President in 2004 against President George W. Bush.

Edwards ran for President himself in 2008 before bowing out early on in the Democrat primary season.

Today we have his mug shot that was taken in connection of his being indicted on campaign finance violations and wrongdoings.

Edwards allegedly used campaign funds to pay off his mistress Rielle Hunter, with whom he had fathered a love child.

John admitted back in January of 2010 to being the father of Rielle’s daughter Frances Quinn.

Edward’s wife Elizabeth died last year after a long battle with cancer.

Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris have called off their upcoming nuptials just 60 hours before Harris was supposed to walk down the aisle.  Apparently Harris pulled the plug on the relationship because Hef wouldn’t give her a bigger allowance.

Sounds like a perfectly healthy and grown-up relationship doesn’t it?

TMZ is also reporting, that the 26-year-old was more focused on her blossoming music career than her wedding to Hef.  According to a source close to The Mansion, Harris felt she “couldn’t be married to Hef and have a successful music career.”

No sweetie – you’ve got it all wrong.  You can’t have a successful music career because you’re terrible at singing.

Apparently cat fights between the castmembers of The Real Housewives of New Jersey isn’t enough drama from BRAVO anymore!

Back in February, the ladies of Franklin Lakes got into an old fashioned bar fight while filming in the Dominican Republic and are now about to pay the price for their antics.  On Monday, two lawsuits were filed against BRAVO, the show’s production company and the RHONJ cast.  The lawsuits state that the network ‘intentionally encourages excessive drinking and thus increases the likelihood of violence.’

Is this news to anyone?

According to US Weekly, the cast of the RHONJ was involved in an altercation at the Hard Rock’s Moon Lounge after housewife, Teresa Giudice, accidentally sprayed champagne on other patrons.  A witness reported that,

One guy started yelling at her… Then Joe and the Manzo boys told him to back off. That’s when they all started wailing on each other.

The lawsuits were filed by a Chicago-area police officer who alleges that he and his cousin were “savagely” beaten by the RHONJ cast and were forced to sign a settlement agreement.  And to add an even deeper level of intrigue, they plantiffs also state that they were told if they did not sign the agreements neither they, nor their families would not be allowed to leave the D.R.

This show just gets more mobster-fabulous all the time.

Rapper Soulja Boy seems to be the latest victim of a brutal hacker, who posted a homophobic and racist rant on his official Twitter account over the weekend. The hacker had a bit of fun attacking the “haters”, people who post negative comments on Soulja’s FB page.

Soulja’s Facebook message read, “IM TIRED OF WHITE PEOPLE DOING US LIKE THIS MAN!! THEY TREAT US SO WRONG!! f**k THEM. I’m gonna keep talking sh*t to these white f**gots until they unlike my page. f**king weirdo stalkers!”

If you are a celebrity and have a public Facebook account, you must expect to read a few negative comments. It’s life! Soulja guarantees the rant was posted by a hacker, who must have used one of his former administrators’ accounts.

Soulja said in a statement, “I wanted to clear the air and let everyone know that my Facebook got hacked.”

He explains, “I had administrators on my account that no longer work with me. The hackers used these old accounts to post hateful messages. This was not done by me or anyone on my team and I’m upset that I am being labeled as a racist and homophobic person.”

Was Soulja Boy really hacked? Or is he trying to hide being the alleged “hacker”? Soulja would be man enough to take responsibility for his actions, right!?!
