Beginning Monday on eBay, the ex-president is auctioning off a private dinner with himself for the top bidder and three friends, to be held at the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock, Ark. The proceeds will benefit the Clinton Foundation.
Former Prez

Dancing With the Stars: Jennifer Grey Makes Case For Crown; Will Bristol Palin Win Anyway?

Jennifer Grey has been a front-runner and fan favorite all season on Dancing With the Stars and was perfect - seriously, ALL 10s - in her final dances Monday.
Will that be enough to defeat Bristol Palin? You never know!
Bristol, Jennifer and Kyle Massey competed in two rounds of the Dancing with the Stars finals - a redemption dance of the judges' choosing, and freestyle. Jennifer and partner Derek Hough outclassed everyone. Now it's in voters' hands.

HAND IT TO HER: Jennifer Grey deserves the Mirror Ball trophy.
It's very possible, given what the producers said yesterday about how the judges' scores factor into the overall totals, they were trying to pad Jennifer's lead hard core.
Not that she didn't deserve her perfect 10s, but after Audrina, Rick and most recently Brandy were voted off, you know the pros are pulling for Grey to take this thing.
On the flip side, Bristol's scores were on the high side too, but in proportion to how they scored both Jennifer Kyle. Here's a breakdown of last night, round by round:
Kyle Massey and Lacey Schwimmer: In the foxtrot, Kyle showed improvement in technique, but lost a little entertainment value in the process. Score: 27 (9,9,9).
He picked the "Tootsie Roll" for their freestyle, since it's his favorite, and wanting to end their run on a memorable note. It was wild and fun. Score: 29 (10,9,10).
Bristol Palin and Mark Ballas: With a little nod to the gorilla suit, Bristol's jive was much improved actually. She's come a long way, no doubt. Score: 27 (9,9,9).
In the freestyle, she fell a little bit flat, relatively at least. It was solid, but the blank face and the stiff movements manifested themselves again. Score: 25 (8,9,8).
Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough: The paso doble was a rare stumbling block this fall, but this time, she nailed it. Redemption dance, indeed. Score: 30 (10,10,10).
Their freestyle, which had been in doubt because of Grey's ailing back, offered laughs and enough daring tricks to earn another set of 10s. Score: 30 (10,10,10).

Total scores on Monday's Dancing With the Stars:
  • Jennifer & Derek: 60 (35.71 percent)
  • Kyle & Lacey: 56 (33.33 percent)
  • Bristol & Mark: 52 (30.95 percent)
After last night's routines, Bristol would need to top Jennifer by almost five percent of the vote (for example, 38 to 33 to Kyle's 31) to overtake her overall.
We're not privy to what kind of vote totals she's racked up in previous weeks, but it seems like a tall order, given Grey's strong fan support this season.
Here's hoping for a win for Jen, but let's give Bristol her due. It's not her fault that people vote for her, she tries her best and is under enormous scrutiny.
She didn't deserve to make the finals, in our opinion, but she's given it her all week in and week out, even amid white powder scares. Terrific job, B.
As for Kyle, he's had a great run, but it's ending here. Either the voters will give it to Jennifer on merit or Bristol ... just because. Who are you rooting for?

Kody Brown, Sister Wives Still Under Investigation

TLC's Sister Wives has been picked up for a second season. Whether prosecutors in Utah throw a wrench into it with bigamy charges remains to be seen.
Kody Brown and his four wives have come under scrutiny from law enforcement and members of their own community for broadcasting their lives on TV.
The Browns have been under investigation for two months - and counting.
The TLC Sister Wives
"We're in no rush to get this filed," says Donna Kelly, a deputy county attorney for Utah County. "You can expect a decision in the next 60 to 90 days."
Although polygamy is illegal, officials rarely get involved due to the sheer number of cases in Utah unless there's child abuse, incest, abuse or fraud.
"We don't go looking for cases like this," says Kelly. "But the Browns have definitely made it easier for us by admitting to felonies on national TV."
Kody recently wed Robyn Sullivan on Sister Wives, upping the wife tally to four. What do you think? Should the Sister Wives cast be prosecuted?

No Decision in Mel Gibson Custody Case

The judge in Mel Gibson's custody battle with Oksana Grigorieva postponed a decision until he hears more from both parties, which won't happen until December.
Both parties appeared in court yesterday not no decision was reached. Mel moved to strip Oksana of custody of their daughter, Lucia, and she was on the stand.
Mel believes her recent interview on Larry King proves her main goal is perpetrating a smear campaign against him and not acting in the best interests of Lucia.
BATTLE ROYALE: The scary thing? It's only beginning.
Mel claims he has photos that prove Oksana lied about the abuse she says she suffered at his hands. Grigorieva claims she and Lucia were hurt by Mel in January.
The custody fight is concurrent with investigations into Mel for domestic violence and Oksana for extortion, neither of which has resulted in any charges ... yet.
Judge Scott Gordon will pick up testimony sometime in December.

Fantasia in Court: I Aborted Antwaun Cook's Baby

Fantasia Barrino may possess an incredible voice, but she's known more for her scandal-filled personal life than anything else these days.
The latest bombshell to drop from this former American Idol champion arrives courtesy of her recent court testimony, as Fantastia was a witness in boyfriend Antwaun Cook's divorce proceedings against ex-wife Paula yesterday.
Under oath, Barrino reportedly stated she got pregnant by Cook and had an abortion.
Fantasia B.
In August, Cook admitted he had been sleeping with the singer, but said Fantasia was unaware he was still married.
That was the focus of a line of questioning in front of a Mecklenburg County Court judge yesterday, as Paula Cook's attorney pressed Barrino on whether or not she knew her boyfriend was still living with his wife during their relationship.
Because reporters were barred from the courtroom, it's unknown exactly what exchange led to Fantasia's admission, but multiple sources told Radar Online she confirmed the abortion and said it took place around the time of her summer suicide attempt.
Antwaun and Paula are in court because they were unable to settle on terms of a divorce through private mediation.
Meanwhile, it's still conceivable that Paula could sue Fantasia over the unusual Alienation of Affection law, which North Carolina still has on the books and which states that an abandoned spouse can file lawsuit against the party responsible for the dissolution of a marriage.

Charlie Sheen Files Extortion Lawsuit Against Capri Anderson

Yesterday, Capri Anderson had her day in front of the camera, giving multiple interviews to ABC and explaining her side of the infamous night she spent in NYC with Charlie Sheen.
Now, the actor wants to have his day in court, as he's filed a lawsuit against the porn star, alleging she tried to extort him for $1 million in exchange for silence over his drug-fueled rampage that October evening.
Close-Up of Capri AndersonTwo and a Half Men Promo Picture
"This case involves a shakedown and extortion of the internationally known actor and celebrity Charlie Sheen... by an opportunist pornographic film star and publicity-hungry scam artist," reads the lawsuit filed yesterday in Los Angeles Superior Court.
The document goes on to say that Anderson (real name: Christina Walsh) "fabricated a sensational tale about being assaulted, battered and held against will."
Capri most recently claimed she was paid $3,500 to be Sheen's date for the night, witnessed the sitcom star snorting a white substance and then locked herself in a bathroom after he wrapped his hands around her neck and threw a lamp in her direction.
Sheen states Anderson contacted him soon after the night in question and asked for at least $1 million.
When he "refused to succumb to Walsh's extortionate and illegal demands," according to the suit, her reps contacted the Aspen authorities that prosecuted Sheen for domestic violence and attempted to have his probation revoked.
The lawsuit, filed by attorney Marty Singer, also accuses Anderson of stealing Sheen's $165,000 Patek Philippe watch.
This is all pretty much a case of He Said/She Said/They Both Suck. Which side are you on?

Sophia Egeler: Tony Parker Sexted Me Too!

Tony Parker's sexting ways may not have ended with Erin Barry.
Sophia Egeler, a 19-year-old (!) British model, says the NBA star, now in the midst of an ugly divorce from Eva Longoria, sent her racy texts as well.
The Sun (UK) was the first to report on Egeler, who says Tony Parker was textin' dirrrrty with her and even sent a half-naked pic of himself. Classy.
Tony Parker and Wife
Gone are these blissful days, replaced by sordid sexting scandals.
The model reveals that the San Antonio Spurs guard pursued her with sultry messages after meeting at an Ultimate Fighting show at the O2 Arena in London.
"From the minute he met me he was trying it on. I had no idea he was Eva Longoria's husband," Sophia Egeler said. "He would not take no for an answer."
She later said that she was finally persuaded to go to London nightspot Whisky Mist with a sports agent they both knew, and they partied in the VIP lounge.
"I decided at 1 a.m. I wanted to leave but Parker followed me into the street. He begged me to come back to a house he claimed was his. I said no."
Although Tony received no from Sophia that night, the next day, Tony began sending the steamy text messages after getting her number from a pal.
It got worse when he sent Sophia his half-naked photo, asking "You want a sexier one still?" Tony also offered to rendezvous with her several times.
Days later, Tony reportedly sent Sophia a message, informing her that he was in town. "I was out with friends so didn't get his messages," she said.
Sophia claimed the flirting stopped when the news of Parker's sexting affair with Erin Barry, his teammate's wife, and split from Eva made the news.
"When I heard I couldn't believe it. How stupid is he?" Sophia mused.
A fair question we've wondered a few times ourselves recently.

Date, Location Set for Kate Middleton and Prince William Wedding

Mark your calendars, set your DVR and prepare for total hyperventilation, readers:
Prince William and Kate Middleton have selected a wedding date and location! The monumental event, expected to be watched by billions of people worldwide, will take place on April 29 at Westminster Abbey.
The date and location for a royal wedding are set. Now, Kate and William just need to plan the dress, caterer, flowers, music, guest list... [Photo: Pacific Coast News]
This is the same venue that featured the 1947 wedding of then-Princess Elizabeth, William's grandmother the Queen.
Prime Minister David Cameron announced this date will be a public holiday across Great Britain, while palace officials say the Royal Famil will pay for the church service, the music and parties.
The millions of dollars spent on security? That will be footed by the British taxpayers. Can you imagine the ruckus that would break out if anything like that was attempted in America? Yikes.

Happy 18th Birthday, Miley Cyrus!

She's already celebrated it with a party and a kiss, but Miley Cyrus officially turns 18 today.
The singer/actress first rose to prominence in 2006 as the star of Hannah Montana. Since then, she's literally grown up in front of the world's eyes, receiving criticism over the last few months for making such blatant attempts to prove her maturity that she rarely wore pants on stage.
But Miley's fans have been pointing to this date all along, awaiting the time they can say Cyrus can legally vote, purchase tobacco and serve in the armed forces... so critics can finally shut the heck up about her supposedly inappropriate ways.
THG has been one of those leading the charge against Miley, but we'll gladly let let her have her special occasion. Send in birthday wishes to this star right now and click around the following photo montage in her honor:

Pamela Anderson boogies to Madhuri’s ‘dhak dhak karne laga’...


Yesterday’s episode of Bigg Boss saw the entry of the Baywatch babe Pamela Anderson. She arrived at Mumbai on Monday for the three-day guest appearance on Season 4 of Indian reality TV series.
Showing off her assets in a white Ashley Rebello sari, the bombshell boogied to the popular Bollywood song “Dhak dhak karne laga” from Madhuri Dixit’s 1992 movie Beta. The steps were taught to her by none other than the newly wed Sara Khan.
From relishing the ghee-soaked paranthas to getting her namaste and shukriya right, Pamela is turning out to be quite a delight for Indian telly viewers during her short stint in Bigg Boss 4.
Wonder what Madhuri Dixit has to say about Pamels’s dance…

Hrithik talks about his co-star Ash and the film ‘Guzzarish’......


Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming film “Guzaarish”, starring Bollywood heartthrob Hrithik Roshan and the lovely Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is all set to hit the theaters tomorrow.
Here is what both of them have to say about the movie and about each other….

“Our equation has been perfect. We both share the same amount of passion for films and our approach to our work is similar. We are selfless and enjoy teamwork. I remember the first shot I gave with Aishwarya 10 years ago for an ad, and till this time we have been able to sustain our equation,”
Hrithik, told reporters Tuesday.
Hrithik feels that he shares a perfect equation with the actress.
“There were times when I used to show Aishwarya the shots I had given. Many times it happened that she used to walk out without giving any reaction and I used say to myself, ‘I have to do the shot again’,” said the 36-year-old actor, who was spiritedly promoting the film despite being down with fever.

“That level of communication and honesty comes only when you are friends and there are no ego hassels,”
he added.
Hrithik was also full of praise for Bhansali, with whom he worked for the first time in the film.
“Guzaarish”, a story about a magician who becomes quadriplegic when one of his tricks goes wrong. Catch the flick tomorrow (19th Nov).

All is NOT well between Ranbir and Katrina.......


Well, yeah! As the title says, All is not going too well between Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif. They may keep their relationship a secret, but if sources are to be believed, Katrina kaif has stopped talking to Ranbir Kapoor due to her own insecurities.
Wondering what the reason can be???
Well, Ranbir’s closeness to his co-star in Rock Star, Nargis Fakhri, has left Katrina Kaif feeling rather insecure. While Ranbir insists and maintains that Nargis and him are just friends, Katrina feels otherwise.
Off late, Ranbir has been seen out quite often with Nargis during shoots and even after. But what has really upset Kat is the fact that Ranbir has changed his attitude towards her. While he would pick up her phone calls almost instantly, Katrina now finds her calls missed and not returned most of the times. For this reason, she has decided to take a break from R.K. and believes that this is the only way to fix their relationship.
I am sure Kats now realizes how Deepika must have felt when she was dating Ranbir Kapoor.

Another WOMAN comes forward in Tony Parker Cheating Scandal!!

web-tony-park__opt1.jpg
We're so glad Eva Longoria is getting out this marriage!!
Not only did Tony Parker emtionally cheat on his beautiful wife with the wife of a Spurs' teammate, but now a 19-year-old British model has come forward claiming that the NBA star constantly sexted her, including sending half-naked pictures of himself.
Sophia Egeler says that the two met at an Ultimate Fighting show at the O2 Area in London and Parker immediately began pursuing her. She says:
"From the minute he met me he was trying it on. I had no idea he was Eva Longoria's husband. He would not take no for an answer and was telling me how much he liked me."
When the NBA star finally convinced her to join him at the London nightspot, Whisky Mist, she said, "I decided at 1 A.M. I wanted to leave but Parker followed me into the street. He begged me to come back to a house he claimed was his. I said 'no.'"
But that apparently didn't stop Parker from sending her steamy messages the next day, including a half-naked picture of himself, asking her, "You want a sexier one still?"
Sophia claims she had no idea he was married, saying, "When I heard I couldn't believe it. How stupid is he to risk everything with her?"
We're still baffled.

Eva & Tony go at it in public private!

eva-longoria-files-for-divo__opt1.jpg
Though the world is seeing the divorce between Eva Longoria and Tony Parker as rather tame, behind the scenes, it is anything but.
According to sources, Tony is very angry with Eva for asking for spousal support in her divorce filing and equally annoyed that she announced to the world his indiscretions. Their conversations behind closed doors have reportedly been "heated" and quite unfriendly. A source explains:
"She trashed him and she wants everyone to know that the divorce isn't her fault so she told everyone he cheated. That has created a lot of bad feelings."
That's why Tony was advised by his legal team to also file for divorce in Texas, even though Eva already did in Los Angeles. The reason is because their prenup was drafted up in Texas and as Tony has a pretty hefty deal with the San Antonio Spurs, he wants to make sure his money stays his.
Slowly, but surely, this divorce is bound to get uglier and uglier!

Xtina's Bionic to be Re-Released??

christina-aguilera-bionic-rereleased.jpg
Is this really the best idea??
Christina Aguilera's floptacular album Bionic could very possibly be reissued in connection with the singer's promotion of her debut movie role in Burlesque.
The album has sold less than 500,000 copies worldwide so why would her label want to re-release an album that nobody was interested the first time aorund?
RCA VP Scott Seviour said, "It's not like the music industry, where the talent comes out two weeks before the album. They started at the end of July. Burlesque ideally gives us the opportunity to remarket Bionic."
So what does Xtina have to say about the reissue of her album?
"I knew going into Burlesque that it would intertwine with Bionic, but I also knew that I'd get to a point where regardless of what was happening with my record I'd have to turn my attention to the movie. I've basically put everything in my life on hold for the movie."
Come on guys! Let's just pretend Bionic never happened and work on new material!
