Actress/singer Lea Michele, best known for playing the egocentric and talented Rachel Berry on “Glee”, and her boyfriend, actor Theo Stockman, have broken up after dating for a little over a year and spending a romantic vacation in Hawaii a couple of months ago.

The 25 year-old, who looked absolutely stunning on the red carpet of the 2011 Emmy Awards over the weekend (photos here), is now currently single and ready to mingle. The decision to call it quits was apparently mutual, and Lea and Theo will continue to be good friends.

Lea’s rep confirmed: “This is not a dramatic breakup, the relationship just ran its course. They are still friends and will always be friends.”

Did you catch the third season premiere of “Glee” last night? Is there hope for Puckleberry or is Finchel taking over?

R&B star Ne-Yo and his longtime girlfriend, boutique owner Monyetta Shaw, are engaged and expecting their second child together. The singer’s pregnant girlfriend is reportedly due next month (October 2011).

The happy couple already has one baby daughter – 10 month-old Madilyn Grace, who was born in November of 2010. Ne-Yo was so excited to become a daddy that the lovebirds started making plans for baby #2 right away.

Ne-Yo just gushed about his baby girl. “[Fatherhood] has been a ride, but I’m loving every minute of it,” he says. “She definitely knows her worth — which is a beautiful thing. That’s something I’ve tried to instill in her from day one: understand that you are a Godsend. She’s extremely diva even at 10 months.”

Congratulations to Monyetta and Ne-Yo!

After being eliminated, “Who’s coming with me?” World Peace asked the crowd. “Everybody give a round of applause to Peta – she was awesome!” He added, “I had a great, great time.”

The 31 year-old Ron and his partner Peta Murgatroyd, and Elisabetta Canalis and partner Val Chmerkovskiy were the two couples at the bottom of the scoreboard after their dancing debut on Monday. Although after the public vote, Ron landed on the bottom two with the sassy Nancy Grace (watch video here).

Ron’s stiff dance moves did not impress people at home, and I’m glad we’ll have the chance of seeing Nancy dance once again. That woman has such a fierce attitude. Love it.

“Two And A Half Men” season 9 premiere was a huge ratings success for CBS. Charlie Sheen’s death on the show offered actor Ashton Kutcher the opportunity to shine as a heartbroken billionaire named Walden Schmidt, who has a tendency to appear naked in the most awkward situations.

The show raked in 27.7 million, a record breaking number of viewers. Ashton had to strip down to his birthday suit twice to boost the ratings, but it worked. Albeit it was only a sign people were eager to discover just exactly how the show was going to get rid of Charlie after so much controversy.

Charlie is death. There is absolutely no chance Charlie Sheen might ever come back… unless he is playing a ghost or a hallucination. “Two And A Half Men” will most probably start to decline in following weeks, until it finally tanks down and eventually disappears from your TV screen.

That hug between Jon Cryer and naked Ashton was one memorable moment (watch video below), but how long can this show actually survive without Charlie Sheen? How long until Ashton’s in the buff starts getting old?

Journey guitarist Neal Schon is opening up about is very public affair with former Real Housewife of D.C., Michaele Salahi.

It’s like a fairy tale. It is, it really is… I’m very happy, very happy after waiting for her for 15 years. Now I want to get beyond all this media hype that Tareq has put out there. It’s really quite embarrassing.

The media hype is embarrassing?  How about breaking up a marriage (albeit a sick, unhealthy marriage…) – that’s embarrassing.

According to sources, Michael and Neal had been texting for quite some time using,

…A device given to her by a friend in order to evade the controlling influence of her husband.

A device, huh?  I wonder what said “device” could’ve been…

Even though their relationship destroyed her husband’s life and killed a dog, Michaele couldn’t be happier with her new man.

Neal was like, ‘Are we going to do this forever?’ And I said, ‘No, we’re not’… I began to see he really loved me. I had to begin to feel it completely in my soul.

Just beautiful…

Although the couple is overjoyed to have finally found each other, they both need to wait out prior relationships before they can make their union official.  Apparently, Schon recently married former Playboy Playmate, Ava Fabian in a “humanistic union” just two months ago.

Sounds like both these characters have some trouble being in a marriage “Faithfully“.

I couldn’t help myself.

A-whaaaaaat?

Nearly a year after filing for bankruptcy, Real Housewives of New Jersey star, Joe Giudice is withdrawing his claim.

Sounds like all of Teresa’s love and support made Juicy Joe want to make good on all his debts!  Or maybe not…

According to sources, Joe didn’t like “being questioned by the trustee of his creditors about assets, income and business interests”, so he pleaded the 5th and pulled the plug on the whole operation.

Leaked court documents from the case revealed that,

The defendant Giuseppe Giudice acknowledges his desire to resolve the matter without the need for further inquiry or litigation, and without making any further admissions.

Here’s a tip for ya, Giuseppe (ha!) old boy.  If you don’t want people snooping around, questioning whether or not you have the money to repay old debts, don’t throw yourself a ridiculously lavish vow renewal ceremony and plaster pictures from it all over the tabloids.

Just a thought.

Jersey Shore’s Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino is taking a page from castmate Vinny Guadagnino’s playbook and trying his hand at the acting game.

Sitch was recently cast as hip-hop star Angel Adonis (I’m sure he looooved that) on the Yobi.TV Webshow, New Stage.

Yeah, I didn’t know what Yobi.TV was either, but apparently it’s a website for online talent competitions.  Sooo basically – it’s YouTube.

The 29-year-old is pumped up (literally and figuratively) about the move from reality star, to bonafide actor.

We’re gonna do a spoof on judge TV talen… I’ll be like that Simon Cow – I don’t even know his name…  Nobody has ever done something like this… This is a situation in–with [sic] a situation.

Oh Michael, Michael, Michael – might I suggest some elocution lessons before you make your professional acting debut?

And they saved the most controversial contestant for last. Chaz, Cher’s son, was born Chastity Bono, becoming the first transgender contestant on the show. Chaz brought lots of enthusiasm and joy to the dance floor, and received some very good comments from the judges. Chaz’s girlfriend, Jennifer Elia, was crying of joy in the audience. Cute!

Len Goodman complimented his positive, joyful attitude and footwork. Bruno described their performance and Chaz as cute and cuddly. Aww. Carrie Ann Inaba said Chaz did not disappoint the people who had been waiting all night to see him make his debut on the DWTS dance floor.

Score: 17 (6+5+6)

The twelve new celebrity dancers and their professional dance partners finally took over the dance floor to show their dancing skills for the first time at the Dancing With The Stars season 13 premiere on Monday (September 19). Ricki Lake and her partner Derek Hough danced the Viennese Waltz to the sound of “This Years Love” by David Grey (watch video below).

Ricki is just there to lose weight… oh, and she also dreams about getting her hands on that mirrorball trophy. From what I’ve seen of the competition so far, she is not going anywhere near that trophy. The performance might have been a bit better than mediocre, but she just bored the heck out of me.

Len Goodman told Ricki to work on her foot work. Bruno was glad she was able to really enjoy it, and Carrie Ann Inaba thought she looked like a princess. After J.R. Martinez’s intense and beautiful performance, no one could have pulled it off for me.

Score: 20 (7+6+7)

J. R. Martinez and his partner Karina Smirnoff danced the Viennese Waltz to the sound of “Breakaway” by Kelly Clarkson (watch video below).

The Iraq veteran turned soap star’s story is just so inspirational. After all that happened how he still manages to smile and dance is so incredible. I cried my heart out watching that performance, and I’m not even embarrassed to admit it. That was so touching and beautiful.

This is my favorite performance of the night. Len Goodman agrees with me. Bruno can’t wait to see J. R. shaking his hips to the Latin rhythms. Carrie Ann Inaba was touched by the performance, saying he was able to offer such strong emotional quality in that one dance.

Score: 22 (8+7+7)

Carson promises to shake up the competition while asking for more glitter. That performance was a hot mess. I loved how much Carson was actually enjoying it. The judges all agreed Carson brought a whole lot of attitude and enthusiasm to the dance floor. Bruno was way too excited, calling it outrageous fun. Loved it!!

The twelve new celebrity dancers and their professional dance partners finally took over the dance floor to show their dancing skills for the first time at the Dancing With The Stars season 13 premiere on Monday (September 19). Hope Solo and her partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy danced the Viennese Waltz to the sound of “Satellite” by Dave Matthews Band (watch video below).

Hope is an athlete, a soccer player, which would usually mean she doesn’t know how to move gracefully. For the debut dance, Hope looked confident enough to actually go very far in the competition and prove the “stiff athlete is not a good dancer” wrong. That was quite better than I expected it to be. Good job!

Bruno saw a bright future for Hope because she has what it takes – drive, attack, musicality -, but told her to work on learning some control, while Len Goodman asked her for more fluidity and softness. Carrie Ann Inaba was impressed by Maks and Hope’s body contact in the hold, claiming they were connected like glue.

Score: 21 (7+7+7)
