- Britney Spears makes her return to CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother tonight, and the show’s creator says the episode leaves open the chance for her to return next season. This is easily the best thing to happen to her since she kicked K-Fed to the curb…
- Colbie Caillat, who hit the big time thanks to being discovered on MySpace, tried out not once but twice for American Idol and was rejected both times–not even getting past the first line of producers. In other words, Colbie got all the glory–with none of the humiliation…
- Playboy founder Hugh Hefner said recently that 15-year-old Miley Cyrus–recently featured in a suggestive Vanity Fair photo shoot –would be, "welcomed in [Playboy] magazine" and the outcry over her photos shows, "how schizophrenic America is about sexuality." I think the kindest thing I can is that Hef’s senility has obviously set in…
- Leona Lewis’ huge hit Bleeding Love has set another chart record–it’s been #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 for four consecutive weeks, something no British solo female artist has ever done. For Lenora, there’s no bleeding, but plenty of love–at least from her accountant…
- Justin Timberlake is teaming with MTV to produce a reality game show called The Phone–where 2 contestants will answer cell phones at opposite ends of a big city, and an unseen guide will direct them through a "race against time" for a big cash prize. This sounds suspiciously like my teenager’s last shopping trip…
- It’s official–when Late Night host Conan O’Brien takes over for Jay Leno on The Tonight Show next year, Jimmy Fallon of Saturday Night Live fame is set to replace O’Brien. So much for Phil Donohue’s comback hopes…

- There’s still no confirmation that Beyonce and rap mogul Jay-Z married over the weekend in his Manhattan apartment, but reports say they are negotiating the sale of their wedding photos which they plan to donate to charity. Fine, just as long as they’re not working on the release of a live DVD and making-of documentary…
- Madonna’s Michigan home town wants to honor her with a key to the city–only an effort to do it over twenty years ago was nixed by city officials because she was considered too contorversial. I guess being a married mom of two with three dozen Top Ten hits and a place in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame tamed her right down…
- Linkin Park has extended its fanclub-only presale of tickets for its Projekt Revolution tour until 5:00PM today, giving members of its Linkin Park Underground the chance to get tickets before the public as well as free of ticket agent service charges.

- Final box office numbers for last weekend now show that George Clooney’s Leatherheads finished third instead of second, pushing Jodie Foster and Nim’s Island ahead of it into the number two spot behind Twenty-One.

- Mariah Carey’s latest hit Touch My Body looks destined for #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100, which will give her 18–one more than Elvis Presley and the most of any solo artist in history. I hope this doesn’t mean she has to wear ugly jumpsuits and eat weird food…
- The recent #1 success of Leona Lewis’ Bleeding Love was great news for composers Jessie McCartney and OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder, who have yet to hit the top spots as singers. Ryan’s bands’ Apologize hit #2 before peaking, but spent an amazing 25 weeks in the Top Ten–the longest since 199’s Santana/Rob Thomas duet Smooth…
- Miley Cyrus, who won a pair of Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice awards Saturday night, told a radio interview that the rumors of her looking for love on the web are untrue, adding, "I’m not that desperate yet!". Besides, t here just aren’t that many cute guys in mullets anymore…
- Madonna said in an interview that rumors about trouble in her marriage to director Guy Ritchie are "ridiculous" but admitted that being married is "not easy" and requires a lot of compromising, adding, "We still have to take turns". Gross–at what?
- Some Internet gossip claims that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie tied the knot in a New Orleans ceremoney on Saturday, which is questionable since sources claim they weren’t even there over the weekend. Of course, who’s to say both sources aren’t the same tabloid?
- Hindu leaders in the US are unhappy with the upcoming Mike Myers comedy The Love Guru, who say the flim’s depiction of a spiritual leader played by Myers makes fun of their religion. They should just feel fortunate that he didn’t decide to make the character Fat Bastard’s twin brother…

- Jessica Simpson is in Nashville working on a country CD and said in an interview that it’s something she always wanted to do, but that she wanted to wait until the time was right. No one is buying her last album, so that must be the right time…
- Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz told a columnist that 2007 was the year "I’m letting myself be OK with being happy…in an honest and genuine way–not in a medicated way." Dating Ashlee Simpson is apparently a big part of it–watching her perform always makes me feel medicated…
- A poll on AOL’s Moviefone picked Lindsay Lohan for giving the worst performance of the year in I Know Who Killed Me and called another of her films, Georgia Rules, the second-biggest waste of a movie ticket the past year. What a relief for LiLo–people were finally talking about her work and not her life…
- David Letterman will return to late-night TV tomorrow, but unlike the rest of his competition, Dave and his company Worldwide Pants have reached a deal with the Writer’s Guild Of America that allows writers to return to work on both his show and The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson.
