Fashion Face-Off: Carrie Underwood vs. J-WOWW

Jersey Shore is all the rage these days, as you know. But can a diva from MTV's newest guilty pleasure expect to compete in a style showdown with the classy Carrie Underwood? She'll have her hands full. Carrie shined in an orange BCBG dress earlier this year, whereas Jenni Farley, a.k.a. J-WOWW, a.k.a. chick from Jersey Shore not named Snooki, opted for periwinkle. Who do you think wore the look better? Vote below!...

Dina Parr Speaks on Tiger Woods Relationship

Dina Parr is not a Tiger Woods mistress, because he wasn't married at the time he was dating her. But his high school sweetheart has a story to tell, too. Dating back to long before he made celebrity gossip (or even sports) headlines, the now-infamous cheater was devastated by his own dad's philandering. Parr, who dated Woods in high school and into freshman year in college, tells E! Tiger would call her from the road to talk about his parents' relationship. "[Tiger] would just call me, crying and say, 'My dad is with another woman,' and that would be all he could say," she recalls. "He would be so upset." "I just tried to be there for him...

Holy Hotness: Kellan Lutz to Pose in Underwear

Forgive us if we hyperventilate while writing this post. But Kellan Lutz has been chosen as the next spokesperson for Calvin Klein underwear. The Twilight Saga star won't be doing a lot of speaking on the company's behalf, however. "He’s going to be their new Mark Wahlberg," an insider told Fox411.com. "Kellan has been signed to Calvin Klein for a huge campaign that will feature him in his skivvies all over billboards and in magazines." The source is referring to the iconic 1992 campaign that pretty much put Wahlberg on the map. Yes, ladies, Lutz will be duplicating the shot below at some point next year... The actor has posed before for Abercrombie...

Sarah Jessica Parker Speaks on Molegate

In 2008, celebrity gossip websites where perplexed by the unexplained disappearance of Sex and the City: The Movie star Sarah Jessica Parker's trademark mole. The general consensus? Confusion. Why would she remove it now? This week on The Late Show With David Letterman, Sarah Jessica finally opened up and told the full story of the bewildering "scandal" she terms "Mole-gate." "I didn't have strong feelings. I didn't object to it. I just didn't care for it," the actress said, admitting "I did it cavalierly. In fact, a family member did it." THE MOLE: Trademark or not, it is no longer. Huh? Sarah Jessica then explained that her brother-in-law...

Tameka Raymond Won't Be a Real Housewife

The rumor appears to be true: Kim Zolciak and NeNe Leakes may be fired from The Real Housewives of Atlanta. But Tameka Raymond has spoken out and clarified her role in this controversial story: she won't be taking part in the hit Bravo series. "While I am flattered at the rumor circulating about being considered to join the cast of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, I am absolutely not joining the cast," Usher's ex told E! News. "I was initially approached by the producers for last season and declined. At this point, my priorities are focusing on being a mom and my philanthropy, Lost Ones Foundation." Raymond and Usher ended their marriage this...

Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie: It's (Not Really) Baby Time!

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie must have moved past the whole suicide attempt thing pretty quick, because Baby No. 7 is totally on its way. Life & Style says so. You know it's true. According to the celebrity gossip magazine, Angie playfully grabbed at Brad's tux, gazed at him lovingly and ran her fingers through his hair in public recently. That's when you knew something was up. These two aren't usually into PDA, but what onlookers were witnessing at the UNICEF ball December 10 in L.A. was the happiness of a couple trying for baby No. 7. And what joy that baby will bring them ... Baby No. 7 is on its way ... at some point, in the future....

Jon Gosselin to Be a Free Man Any Day Now

Jon Gosselin has been acting like a swingin' single for months, partying like it's 1999 (before he wed Kate, actually) and chasing skirts all over the globe. He's been married the whole time. Tiger Woods would be proud. Still, you knew things weren't gonna be reconciled with estranged with Kate Gosselin, and their divorce, which has been a long time 'comin, is imminent. An arbitrator dealing with the reality stars has rendered a decision regarding how the feuding spouses should divide all their money and other property. Those were the (contractually obligated photo shoot) days. This recommendation (the details of which will stay confidential)...

AnnaLynne McCord or Jessica Stroup: Who Would You Rather...

The challenge is on, AnnaLynne McCord! A day after the actress showed serious cleavage in a photo spread for Cosmopolitan, co-star Jessica Stroup has upped the hot ante in a pictorial for Complex. Inside the January 2010 issue of the magazine, Stroup praises the strength of her gender, saying: "Women rule men's lives - every decision a man makes is based on a woman. Men initially had more power in this industry, and now women are stepping up, writing and directing more. Actresses with strong voices and opinions are being heard." They are also being fantasized about and debated between. For example, ogle the following pictures and then respond...

Russell Ferguson Wins, Adam Lambert Sings on So You Think You Can Dance Finale

Overcoming an injury early in the evening, Russell Ferguson limped to victory on last night's So You Think You Can Dance finale. Due to a knee he told the audience was "messed up," the 20-year old Boston native was unable to perform his second routine on the show, as Ferguson was in clear pain when host Cat Deeley called out the top six finalists to reveal the first elimination. Still, when the final votes were tallied, this mover and shaker came out on top. He earned $250,000 for his efforts. "I just want to thank everybody so much," said Russell after he beat out runner-up Jakob Karr. "This means everything to me. I've been dreaming of this...

Jersey Shore Gets Snooki Fired

Jersey Shore's Snooki, a.k.a. Nicole Polizzi, may be living the dream as a newly-minted MTV reality star, but she's still gone through some hard knocks lately. We're not talking about getting punched in the face by a dude either. Snooki says she just got fired from her job after she told her boss she needed some time off to head to the West Coast at the end of last week for PR. "I was a receptionist at a corporation," Snooki says. "I was getting decent money, like $13 an hour. I got fired when I asked for time off to go to L.A." But it was for the best: "She knew I'd be crazy," she said of her boss. Also crazy? The amount of phone calls she's...

Courtney Love Likens Frances Bean to Jamie Lynn Spears; Needs Facebook Privileges Revoked

In yet another insane Facebook rant, Courtney Love derided her estranged, teenage daughter Frances Bean Cobain with a cheap shot at Jamie Lynn Spears. Yes, we're serious. After slamming her 17-year-old daughter as "deceptive" earlier this week, Love ranted late Wednesday afternoon that she's not upset with Frances Bean. "id just prefer she not become Jaimie [sic] L Spears," Love wrote, referring to Britney Spears' little sister, who had a daughter, Maddie Briann, at age 17. So uncalled for. So nonsensical. So hilarious. Love continues her advice to Frances: "she should be a writer or an a... artist wich i support 100% but this is a circus it...

Theresa Rogers Tried to Have Tiger Woods' Baby; Mistress Likely Negotiating Huge Settlement

Is another of the many Tiger Woods mistresses ready to cash in? While some of Woods' lovers have wasted no time talking to any media outlet who will have them, Tiger's original mistress (that we learned of), Rachel Uchitel, reportedly snagged a seven-figure deal to keep quiet about their affair. According to Radar Online, Theresa Rogers may go that route. Uchitel and Rogers share L.A. attorney Gloria Allred, who negotiated Uchitel's deal, and who would not be involved if there weren't some real dirt. Rogers is rumored to have been involved with Tiger Woods for years, before and after he was married, and to have taught him everything in bed....

Miley Cyrus Honors Lady GaGa, Doesn't Suck

It's safe to say we weren't huge fans of the outfit Miley Cyrus wore when she met the Queen of England last week. Overt, 17-year old cleavage aside, though, we can give Cyrus credit when credit is due. The singer put on a solid rendition of "Party in the USA" during her time in England, performing in front of royalty and a massive audience. She even changed a lyric and added some choreography in honor of THG favorite Lady GaGa. See what we mean below: Miley in England Does this make up for the fact that Miley encouraged her nine-year old sister to smack her ass and sing along to Akon? Not even close. But it does prove that we're capable of not hating on Cyrus every second of every day. That's a big step for us....

Rielle Hunter to John Edwards: Support Your Child!

Rielle Hunter wants John Edwards to pay a lot of money to help support the child the two-time presidential candidate has never admitted he fathered. How long before he's finally forced to come clean? The National Enquirer makes up a lot of crap, but not regarding Edwards. They exposed the scandal in 2008, and appear to have proof this time too. New documents prove beyond any doubt that John Edwards knocked up Rielle Hunter, with whom he had an affair as wife Elizabeth battled cancer. Rielle is seeking more than $17,000 per month from the former U.S. Senator, who was forced into admitting the affair in the summer of last year. Rielle Hunter and...

Chris Henry Dead at 26

Chris Henry has passed away as a result of the grave injuries he sustained after falling out of the back of a moving pickup truck Wednesday. He was in critical condition last night, but Charlotte-Mecklenbruck, N.C., police have confirmed that Chris Henry is dead as of 6:36 a.m. EST. The NFL star was just 26. Police believe the wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals jumped into the back of the truck in an attempt to stop his fiancee, Loleini Tonga, from leaving a "domestic situation" at her parents' home in North Carolina. At some point, Henry fell out of the truck, presumably at a high speed if he did not survive. He was rushed to a hospital...

Source: Tiger Woods Divorce "100 Percent" Likely

Tiger Woods' rampant and recently-exposed marital infidelity did not stop him from being named the Athlete of the Decade by The Associated Press yesterday. It's caused his wife to stop wanting to be married to him, though. A source close to Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren, told ABC News that a "divorce is 100 percent on" and it's only a question of timing and logistics at this point. Elin Woods has already been seen without her wedding ring. "It would not appear that Elin Nordegren is going to be standing by her man," Kate Coyne of People told Good Morning America in an interview Wednesday. "Sources have told us that Elin has told us the marriage...

Kendall Jenner Kopies Kareer of Kim Kardashian, Works It

First, nine-year Noah Cyrus smacked that for the world to see. Now, in another sign of the Apocalypse, 14-year old Kendall Jenner - the half-sister of Kourtney, Khloe and Kim Kardashian - is taking to the runway, kick-starting her modeling career with a print campaign for clothing company Forever 21. "I’m glad I got to do it," she told Life & Style of the photo shoot. "I was nervous and excited. It was super fun. I’ve always wanted to model. I like being in front of the camera." In that case, she was born into the right family. Kendall added that her sisters have given her insightful advice. For example: “Kim just tells me, ‘Work it.’...

Lady Gaga Goes Down on Stage

Lady Gaga is a real pro at going down. Or something. For the second time in her current Monster Ball tour, the supposed hermaphrodite landed flat on her a$$ during a rendition of "Bad Romance." The spill took place in Vancouver. A video of it appears below. Peep it below, because even if it's your favorite celeb, an on-stage spill is good for a chuckle. On the plus side, she recovered before she could miss a ra-ra-ah-ah-ahhhh! Also, unlike certain performers, she clearly sings in concert. A novel concept! Talking to you, Britney Spears, you hack ... Gaga Goes Down...

Tale of the Tape: Tyke Edition!

The Hollywood Gossip staff is excited to bring back our Tale of the Tape, the Internet sensation in which we break down various matchups within the celebrity gossip world. This week, our editors had no choice but to pit a pair of newborns against one another. We hope Mason Dash Disick and Hank Baskett IV live long, happy, fruitful lives; but it's not clear if this is possible. That's what happens when your respective parents - Kendra Wilkinson and Kourtney Kardashian - seem to care more about publicity than child-rearing. We've already asked readers which of these kids is worse off, but we're here now to examine each child's prospects in closer...

Hailey Glassman and Damon Feldman Kiss; Irate Jon Gosselin Told to Quit Stalking Her

Jon Gosselin is almost ready to (legally) become a free man. Looks like Hailey Glassman won't be there to help him celebrate his divorce, though. The 22-year-old ex-fling of the reality star was spotted kissing celebrity boxing promoter Damon Feldman at a Pennsylvania bar on Wednesday. All the while, Jon Gosselin was fuming mad inside his car. Despite claims that he’s over Glassman, the douchebag dad seemed shaken up that Hailey's moved on and found a new guy with a "real" job. “Hailey and Damon really like one another and they have started to date casually," a source said. “While Hailey was inside doing promotional work, Jon just kept on bombarding...

Michael Girgenti: Possibly Kourtney Kardashian's Baby Daddy!

Due to the presence of Scott Disick as his dad, the THG staff has determined that Mason Dash might be in for a tough childhood. However, a report in Star magazine has great, life-altering news for the newborn: Disick might not be his father after all! Anonymous, likely made-up sources say Michael Girgenti - a 23-year-old model and rapper that goes by the stage name of Premo Stallone - banged the heck out of Kourtney Kardashian around the time she got impregnanted. "Kourtney hooked up with Michael twice while she and Scott were on the outs. He's definitely been mentioned as a possibility for being the father of her baby," the insider claims....

Sarah Palin Explains John McCain Visor Incident

Former Alaska Governor and current famous person Sarah Palin says she meant no disrespect to Sen. John McCain by blacking out his name on a sun visor. On vacation in Hawaii, Palin for some reason chose to wear a visor from her campaign emblazoned with McCain's name scribbled out with black marker. Palin said she just wore it to stay under the radar (!?) and that the hotel where she and her family were staying had to chase away five photographers. Here's the text of the statement she released today: "I am so sorry if people took this silly incident the wrong way. I adore John McCain, support him 100 percent and will do everything I can to support...

Celebrity of the Year Finalist #6: Tiger Woods' Mistresses!

As 2010 approaches, The Hollywood Gossip staff looks back on the year that was, honoring 10 finalists for our prestigious, 3rd Annual Celebrity of the Year award. These A-to-Z-listers have given us their best, their worst, their nude pics (sometimes), their absurd, off-the-wall antics (often) and their over-the-top scandals. It's time for THG to pay tribute to this greatness. Last week, we continued the '09 countdown with Taylor Swift at #7. Today, we present Celebrity of the Year Finalist #6: All of Tiger Woods' Mistresses! Tiger Woods proved to be quite a player this year! Three weeks ago, few had heard of Rachel Uchitel, although a previous...

Chris Henry 911 Call Reveals Chilling Details

A 911 call from a woman driving behind Chris Henry during the pickup truck incident that ultimately took his life provided a new, scary take on the events. She told the dispatcher that the Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver, shirtless, was "beating on the back window of the truck," presumably from its bed. His arm was in a cast from injuries suffered during this NFL season. At some point during the Wednesday incident, the football player fell from the truck, sustaining injuries that left Chris Henry dead at age 26 this morning. A second person also called 911 after Chris Henry fell. Reporting the severity of the situation, the man said that Henry...

Adam Lambert is Everywhere!

From a Barbara Walters special to The View to the So You Think You Can Dance finale, Adam Lambert is everywhere. The controversial singer may have his detractors, but Chelsea Handler sure isn't one of them. Lambert appeared on her E! talk show last night and shared many laughs with the host, who isn't exactly the most conservative person on the planet. As you can imagine, she's fully on Adam's side, even offering up a gay employee as a possible boy toy for the star. See what we mean in the video below: Lambert on Chelsea Lately...

Steven Burky: Stalking Jennifer Garner ... Again!

Sending packages and letters to stars containing your delusional and paranoid thoughts? That's creepy stuff, to be sure, but fairly manageable as far as stalkers go these days. Get a restraining order and they usually back off. Showing up at their kids' pre-school? Now we're talking dangerous. Steven Burky, a accused of stalking Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck more than once before, is a barrage of criminal charges for what he pulled this week. Cops arrested the stalker on Monday outside the L.A. nursery school where their daughter Violet Affleck is enrolled. That's just terrifying for Jen and Ben. The L.A. District Attorney has charged Steven...

Hayden Wright, 4, Drinks Beer, Steals Christmas Gifts

Forget the Grinch. Hayden Wright, a Tennessee four-year-old, stands accused of stealing Christmas presents from his neighbors, according to reports. Hayden is accused of committing his holiday thievery after consuming a beer. Yeah, that'll do it every time. Happened to one of our interns last week. He was found at 1:45 a.m. on Tuesday wandering the streets in a little brown dress that he is believed to have stolen from under a neighbor's tree. The kid entered after he rang the door bell, took the dress, then moved on to another house. Nice of those first people to intervene and call for help! Hayden's mother, April Wright, is going through a divorce from Hayden's father, who is in jail, and she thinks he may have been looking for his dad. "He runs away trying to find his father," said 21-year-old...

Diddy Does It All Night Long

Yes, Diddy is a hip hop mogul. But in an interview with Playboy this week, the rap star focused more on his bedroom prowess than his producing resume. For example, Diddy dished on losing his virginity at... age 13: "I felt I was a porno star because I’d been watching porn for so long. In the Bronx you could get a hotel for an hour. I always had $20 or $30 to take a chick to a hotel. I’m proud to say I love sex. You might catch me in a porn store at any given moment. Iit ain’t nothing I’m ashamed of." Diddy also practices Tantric sex. "When I heard about Sting doing it, I thought, Yo, is this possible? I studied up on the breathing techniques...

Brad Ferro Sorry For Punching Out Snooki

Gym teacher Brad Ferro punched Snooki (Nicole Pilozzi) in the face in what has become the most infamous scene from Jersey Shore, even though it hasn't aired yet (it was supposed to tonight) and MTV decided to edit out the brutal KO. Now he wants her to know he's sorry. "I am sick to my stomach," Brad Ferro tells the New York Post. "I can''t believe I'd ever do anything like that. I was raised to act in a respectful manner to women." "I deeply regret what happened," he says of punching Snooki, which you can still see online if you must. "Nobody deserves that. That was not the real Brad Ferro." Ferro was arrested back on August 19 after knocking...
