Jessica Simpson Recalls Eric Johnson Proposal

Tears of joy. They flowed from the face of Jessica Simpson after Eric Johnson, her boyfriend of less than six months, proposed to her November 11.

Opening up about her recent engagement during a Monday appearance on The Early Show, Simpson called Johnson's proposal "a total surprise."

"I had to sit on his knee; I was too shocked to really get what was happening."

Eric Johnson will soon become Mr. Jessica Simpson.

What was her reaction when Johnson, a Yale graduate and former NFL tight end, presented her with a ruby, diamond and gold Neil Lane sparkler?

"I first said 'Yes!'" Simpson told Harry Smith, giggling. "I didn't even try the ring on for 5 minutes," she adds. "I just sat there and cried with him."

Guess she didn't pay for it herself then.

She says she loves that Johnson went the unconventional route with her new sparkler, choosing the ruby, her birthstone, to make it stand out.

"I've already done the traditional thing," she sniffed of her ring from first husband Nick Lachey, who's also newly engaged to Vanessa Minnillo.

"I wanted to do something that was different."

She says Eric "had a plan a long time ago" to propose. "He had a [sit-down] with my mom and dad about it... He was a gentleman about it."

Eric is "the best man in my life... He is really thoughtful. Keeps me very centered. [He always] makes me feel like my feet are on the ground.'"

"He's the most special part of my life and my day."

All together now ... AWWW!

Gabriel Aubry: Kourtside with Kim Kardashian!

The Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Golden State Warriors 117-89 last night. Not exactly a surprising result, considering the talent gap between these two teams.

But Gabriel Aubry and Kim Kardashian made sure fans were taken aback by at least one development: these two sat courtside at the game, embracing the camera at every opportunity, as evidenced below:

Look, there's one guy in this building I haven't dated!

Aubry split from Halle Berry in April, following four years of dating. He and the actress are the parents of a daughter, Nahla, and have remained friendly since the break-up.

Kim, meanwhile, claims to be happy on her own - but it wouldn't be surprising if she's dabbling in a bit of Canadian cuteness while single. What do you think of these two as a couple?

Yes, Kim Zolciak is Pregnant!

She tried playing coy for awhile, referring to rumors of her pregnancy as hilarious, but the money is finally right time has finally come for Kim Zolciak to come clean: she's knocked up!

"I was surprised," Zolciak tells the latest issue of Life & Style, referring to the Kroy Biermann-sponsored bun in her oven. "While it wasn't planned, God clearly has a bigger and better plan for us and we're excited."

Zolciak says she was "appalled and disgusted" when ex-girlfriend Tracy Young went public with this news, even claiming Kim had broken up with Kroy and asked Tracy co-raise the child with her.

But now Zolciak - who has two daughters from a previous marriage - is over it. "I'm the happiest I've ever been," she says.

Mason Dash Disick is Okay!

Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick received a scare on Friday night.

Following an allergic reaction to peanut butter, the couple called 911 and was advised to bring son Mason to a New York City hospital. Fortunately, there was no real damage and the family returned home after just a brief visit.

It will take more than peanut butter and an attention-starved mother to bring Mason Dash down!!!

Kourtney blogged about the incident today, shooting down reports that blew the incident out of proportion and writing: "I learned such a lesson with this…to always follow my instincts and call 911. Always better safe than sorry.

"The creepy part is…WHO took those pictures and video I’ve seen online from outside our house?"

We can't say for certain, Kourt. But such are the consequences when you turn your private life into a television show.

Insane Producer Swears: Michael Jackson is ALIVE!!!

Music producer Teddy Riley has serious issues ... with the fact that people just ASSUME Michael Jackson is dead. Come on, people, it's a conspiracy!

Riley, who worked with MJ all the way to the end - or WAS it the end?! - has reignited a conspiracy theory after Tweeting that he believes he's alive.

Where is he? How would he possibly live in secret even if he did fake his own death successfully? Why would he abandon his kids? Not explained.

Wherever Michael Jackson is, Teddy Riley wishes him the best.

Riley worked with MJ on his Dangerous album and produced the (possibly) late singer's controversial song "Breaking News" on his upcoming Sony album.

Riley wrote, "If people can think Elvis is still alive why the F#*@ I cant [sic] think Michael is still alive." Truly, no one can argue that kind of sage wisdom.

A fan then wrote to him: "Akon said he believes Michael is in hiding and will be coming back one day. Im curious to know what ya think bout that."

His take: "AKON IS MY FRIEND AND WE THINK ALIKE." Enough said.

A Royal Wedding Date: Coming Soon!

A few days after their engagement was made official, more details and rumors are coming out regarding the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.

For example: Phillipa Lepley is the leading candidate to design Kate's dress.

But the most pressing question of all remains unanswered: When will these two walk down the royal, expensive aisle?

No date has been announced, but multiple sources confirm there's a good chance the nuptials take place in late April.

"There is a date they have in mind, and it's a case of working it out with the relevant parties," a spokesman said.

But why April? A couple of reasons stand out:

1. It would be well ahead of polo season, a sport in which William participates.
2. It would take place after Easter and the preceding period of Lent, which the Queen seriously observes.

As for Middleton's life these days, she continues to meet with senior staffers. They're helping her settle into the unique, specialized atmosphere or royal life/protocol. Says an insider, making a major understatement:

"She will have all sorts of preparations in the run-up to the wedding."

Classmates: Willow Palin is a Binge-Drinking, Curfew-Breaking Drug Dealer!

Willow Palin's homophobic Facebook rant? That was nothing.

According to some narc classmates, Sarah Palin's 16-year-old daughter is an out-of-control party animal who once brokered a drug deal ... at 1 a.m.!

One in the morning! Sarah, do you know where your children are?!

Who is Willow Palin and who is raising her?!

Several former peers of the 16-year-old have gone on record telling Life & Stylethat Willow "chugged" vodka at a party took part in a "1 a.m. drug deal."

Surprisingly, Tre is not among the narcs quoted by the tabloid.

Lance Nezaticky says he watched Willow Palin take part in a late-night drug deal in a deserted Target parking lot in her hometown of Wasilla, Alaska.

He watched as a male driver pulled up, with Willow riding shotgun. The driver bought $20 worth of marijuana, says Nezaticky, then handed it to Willow.

"It was definitely her," Nezaticky says. "There's no question. I had met her before."

After buying roughly two grams of pot, Willow and her companion drove off. "Willow had been told that the pot was really good stuff," Nezaticky recalls.

Another peer, Matt Scott, shockingly reveals that in October 2009, Willow hid herself away at a party and took swigs straight from a bottle of liquor.

Truly staggering revelations, these.

Imran Chaudhry, who was also at the party, confirms an underage Willow wasguzzling vodka: "I saw her drinking from a bottle of Monarch," he says.

"She was chugging it pretty hard."

Hey, what's she gonna do, sip that crap?

More from Capri Anderson: Death Threats, Cocaine Snorting, $20,000 Payoff Alleged

In an interview that will air on ABC's Nightline this evening, Capri Anderson says Charlie Sheen wrapped his hands around her neck and used many racial slurs.

But that's far from all.

The porn star admitted to George Stephanopoulos on Good Morning America today that she was offered $3,500 to be Charlie Sheen's escort on October 25. Insisting this money was for her company, not her vagina, Anderson was joined by her lawyer and said she plans to sue Sheen for battery and false imprisonment.

Why didn't Capri initially tell police about lamps being thrown her way and death threats being issued, two of the allegations she elaborates on during the interview? Watch her answer in this video and decide whether or not she's credible:

Capri Anderson on GMA

Anderson claims she was sitting on a coffee table in Sheen's hotel room when theTwo and a Half Men star began "snorting a white powdery substance."

Was she there willingly? Was there a bit of romance? Yes and yes. But then Sheen "started throwing things. He threw a lamp. That was the first thing he picked up. And he threw it across the room at me... I became very shocked, scared."

But why did Capri call a friend, instead of the cops, after locking herself in the bathroom following this incident? She says she was in shock, "crying and embarrassed."

Anderson added that Sheen called the next day after offered money for her silence ("He apologized for his behavior and the entire evening, I guess," she says). Reports indicate the amount offered was $20,000.

While many aspects of this story are curious, attorney Keith Davidson summed it up thusly: "There's certain things that no one can deny about that evening. One person was brought away from that hospital against their will, and it was Mr. Sheen."

Clinton Yunker: Dating Amber Portwood!

Fresh off being served with felony battery charges, and having temporarily lost her baby because her life is in such disarray, Amber Portwood is dating again.

Clinton Yunker is the name of the brave soul willing to go there, and he's described by Hollywood Life as "a young dad, a drinker, and an MMA fighter."

Good thing, too, because when you're in a relationship with Amber Portwood, you tend to receive a beatdown every so often. Just ask Gary Shirley.

YUNKER IN HER TRUNK: Clinton is Amber's new baggage.

After plowing through a slew of young men in Anderson, Ind., Amber has zeroed in on Yunker, himself the father of a two-year-old daughter. Will it last?

Well the mixed martial arts fighter is nicknamed “Daddy Long Legs,” he's been in four official bouts, and according to these photos, enjoys Budweiser.

In short, we have no effing clue. But if fighting and drinking are two of his pastimes, he may have found his soul mate in Amber Portwood. Sorry Gary
