Uh oh...someone's in trouble!
Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon of The Jamie Foxx Show may have spilled some serious beans during her appearance on The Wendy Williams Show.
When asked about her relationship with Jamie Foxx, Garcelle got a little too chatty with host Wendy Williams.
"We saw each other Easter Sunday at a friend's house," she began, "and he came with his lovely daughter and he told me that he had a new baby. I said, 'Wow, Jamie do I know the baby mama?' and he goes, 'No.' Then I go [jokingly], 'Do you know the baby mama?'"
Wait, what? A new baby and an unknown baby mama? I guess congratulations are in order...
Dane Cook raised eyebrows at the taping of the Teen Choice Awards Sunday night when he made an on-stage joke about Vanessa Hudgens's latest batch of naked pictures.
"Girl, you gots to keep your clothes on! Phones are for phone calls, girl," he said, as the camera zoomed in on Vanessa's unsmiling face.
The joke was edited out of the broadcast that aired last night, but Dane isn't apologizing for his comments.
"That's the best part about being a comic, when you go, 'Maybe I can say the thing that everybody is kind of feeling and nobody [is saying].' The elephant-in-the-room moment. So, I'll take it, I'll take the hit. It's OK," he told Access Hollywood.
His joke was pretty funny, but do you think it was wrong of him to mention the pictures in front of her young fans?
Lisa Wu-Hartwell, one of the fiery cast members of Bravo's hit show, The Real Housewives of Atlanta was kicked out of her multi-million dollar home last week!
The opinionated housewife, who has a soft spot for all things related to money, lived in the mansion with her husband, former Oakland Raiders linebacker Ed Hartwell. The bank sold the couple's home after they defaulted on their loan. The house's value had lessened over the years, and though Lisa and Ed bought the mansion for $2.9 million in 2007, the bank only got $1.9 after reselling it.
Not to worry, though. Lisa's rep says, "Ed and Lisa are fine. They have settled in their [new] home, that sits on 10 acres and they OWN it!" Phew!

Jon Gosselin's new girlfriend Hailey Glassman was obviously unprepared for her sudden "stardom" (we use that term lightly) as her past indiscretions and questionable Facebook photos have been widely distributed all over the Web.
Since we feel bad for Hailey (well, not really) we've compiled a list of the 7 Tips for Going from Civilian to Celebrity. If you or someone you love is thinking of dating a celebrity or going on a reality show make sure you forward them this checklist first.
Trying to save her reputation, Sienna's friends are coming to her defense. One pal told the New York Post, "She and Balthazar met through friends and he was already separated from his wife." Another buddy said that Balthazar had been "sleeping on friends' couches for six months" before he hooked up with the naked lady.
Some reports claim that Balty is trying to get back together with his wife, while others say that he and Sienna are still hanging out. What do you think?
Remember just days ago when Mary-Kate was subpoenaed by a grand jury during the investigation of Heath Ledger's fatal drug overdose? Now the U.S. Attorney's Office has closed the investigation! There's no word on why... all we know is that the subpoena won't be enforced. Verrrrry interesting.
Note to self: If ever in trouble, get Mary-Kate's lawyer on the phone immediately.
Though Mary-Kate Olsen wants to stay quiet about Heath Ledger's death, the feds may not let her off the hook.Apparently, Miss O. is refusing to let federal investigators interview her regarding Heath's drug overdose... unless they grant her immunity from prosecution.
Sounds fishy, right? Why else would she want immunity unless she's done something wrong?
For those of you who need a reminder of Mary-Kate's connection to all this in the first place: Michelle Tanner was the first person the masseuse called after finding Heath's body.
Do you think Mary-Kate is hiding something?
I warn you -- this story is not for the faint of heart.
It seems that Verne Troyer, of Austin Powers Mini-Me fame, made a sex tape with his former live-in girlfriend. TMZ.com was unfortunate lucky enough to get their hands on it and share it with the world. The website only has a 25 second clip but, I tell you, it's 25 seconds of your life you will never, as they put it, "unsee".
Of course comeone is going to make gazillions of dollars of this, as the broker for Paris Hilton's foray into porn, One Night In Paris, is said to be working on a $100k offer from SugarDVD to distribute the disturbance.
Watch the clip here, if you must, but, I'm warning you again -- I threw up a little in my mouth from it.
Wow! Talk about the wheels falling off the bus.
Anne Hathaway's shady businessman ex Raffaello Follieri was in Federal court yesterday, and was charged with six counts of wire fraud and five counts of money laundering. The Feds said revealed that Raf tested positive for opiates during a test Tuesday morning.
Get this -- his bail was set at $21 million!
Why so high? Well, the prosecution argued that Anne's ex was a "con man" and a "high potential risk of flight," who would flee the country and had the financial means to do so. He is being placed under home detention until he can come up with the cash. He is also facing up to 120 years in prison.
Not good. Like my mama always said, "You play, you pay."
Not sure if this is good news or bad news but Amy Winehouse was released from the hospital yesterday, after a week-long stay resulting from a fainting spell.
After doctors picked and prodded at the "Rehab" singer, Amy's dad, Mitch Winehouse told the press that his daughter was suffering from emphysema. He stressed that, if she didn't start taking care of herself, quit smoking all kinds of drugs and cigarettes, she would eventually lose her capacity to breathe.
So, what did Amy do immediately upon getting sprung from the medical center? She lit up.
You can't really feel sorry for her...
I refuse to believe these nasty rumors about one Drew Lachey.
Tabloids are reporting that Nick's bro had an affair with his Dancing With the Stars' partner, Cheryl Burke. Say isn't so -- and they did. Drew's rep says these stories of the couple doing the horizontal Hora are "completely false and cannot be further from the truth." A rep for Cheryl adds, "The story that Cheryl is involved with Drew Lachey started two years ago when they were partners on Dancing with the Stars. It wasn't true then and it isn't true now."
A source close to the show also called the report "untrue and irresponsible."
I have always loved Drew -- ever since he was just Nick's brother on Newlyweds. He and his wife seem so happy! And they have that baby! I hate that they make me doubt you, Drew!
Nothing ever came of the sex tape rumors regarding The Hills star Lauren Conrad, but there is no denying that her faithful sidekick, Audrina Patridge, got naked for the camera. New photos have surfaced of Audrina -- and girl is showing off her hills.
The reality TV star had reportedly taken these photos after graduating from high school -- in hopes of getting a gig with Playboy. Well, that photo spread never quite came to pass, but the photos are back (you nasty little devils can see them here)!
Audrina has released this statement to TMZ.com regarding the nakedness:
"I took these photos years ago when I was just out of high school and beginning to model. I was young and very trusting of others and I didn't know to protect myself. It is a lesson learned, for myself, and hopefully for the young girls who look up to me."
You know what I hear? Naked, naked, naked, naked, naked. Interesting that the new season of The Hills starts Monday. Hmmm.....
Not our Charlotte!
According to TMZ.com, there a bunch of very new, very dirty photos of one Sex and the City star Kristin Davis floating around town. The website says there are about 20 pics that allegedly show Kristin (or her doppelganger) in some interesting positions with an ex-boyfriend. Said photos were supposedly taken five years ago -- and are stills from a sex tape!
A rep for the actress says that there is no way that the nasty little vixen in the pics are her client. "This is not a photo of Kristin Davis. There is no sex tape," she told UsMagazine.com
The pics could be Photoshopped, but imagine they weren't? That Charlotte's been spending too much around Samantha.
David Hernandez will not be getting booted from American Idol -- at least not by the show's producers.
The story broke yesterday that David was a former nude dancer at a male strip club, before he appeared on Idol, but show execs say they don't care.
“The truth is we’re never judgmental about what people do to earn a living. They’ve gotta put food in people’s mouths,” Idol’s executive producer, Ken Warwick, told TVGuide.com. “If it were some sort of heavy porn, then maybe we’d have to take action. But certainly not on this.”
As for America, if they should be swayed by the guy's past profession, there's not much the show can do about it. "As for how his past could influence his future," Ken said, “If there’s a stretch of the public that thinks, ‘Oh, dear, he was a male stripper, I’m not gonna vote for him,’ then that’s the luck of the draw.”
Okay, fine. Here's what I want to discuss. Did anyone else hear Simon say something regarding David's stripping immediately after the guy finished his performance last night? While the audience was applauding, the judge's microphones went on and I swear Simon said something like, "Tell him you liked the way he stripped it down."
Seriously, I had to rewind it twice but I'm pretty sure that's what I heard. Anyone else?
UPDATE: TMZ.com just posted the video from last night's show and Simon definitely took a shot at David!
Don't the people who try out for American Idol know that if they've done something dirty in the past, it's so coming back to bite them in the ass? Right, Antonella Barba?
Finalist David Hernandez, a good-looking, sort of vanilla-type (or so it seemed) guy has been outed by his former boss. It seems Dave burned the midnight oil as a nude dancer in a gay club! Love it!
Gordy Bryan of Dick's Cabaret (I kid you not) blabbed to the Associated Press that Dave was a crowd favorite. “He had the look and the type that people like, so he made pretty good money here," the snitch said. And David reportedly didn't quit his work until two months after his first Idol audition.
Ruh-roh, George.
So, will David get the boot for his previous line of work? It remains to be seen. As of now, he's scheduled to sing with the rest of the boys on Tuesday night.
I couldn't care less what he did before -- unless he was some kind of axe murderer. As long as he didn't break any laws, I say let him go on. Maybe he'll strip if he gets to the finale...
