Rihanna's Good Morning America Interview: Part II

In case you missed it this morning, the second part of what's aired on GMA the past two days, after the jump.

Former *NSYNC Member, Joey Fatone, Has a Sense of Humor About Himself

Former baritone member of the famous boy band *NSYNC, Joey Fatone, 32, has a sense of humor about himself. This is brilliant, especially when so many once-wildly-popular people end up sounding like whiny children.

Want to know how we know he has a sense of humour about himself? Check out what's under the black bar over his t-shirt:

Rihanna's Good Morning America Interview: Going Back To Brown Wasn't Right

Finally, Rihanna has spoken out about her abuse at the hands of Chris Brown, saying, among other things, she was embarrassed that she'd fallen in love with someone like him, and wishes she hadn't gone back to him after the assault. Video after the jump.

The Famous Faces of Domestic Abuse

The Internet is abuzz this week with news of Rhianna's 20/20 and Good Morning America interviews (Jodi also wrote about Rhianna speaking out about her domestic violence experience here), the ones she's giving in conjunction with the release of her new album, Rated R. Now, on the eve of those media appearances, a few additional people are speaking out about what specifically happened to Rhianna and about domestic violence in general.

I Wonder If Jessica Simpson Thinks She's Actually Had GOOD Scripts?

Ashlee Simpson was recently axed from Melrose Place and although it doesn't seem like any "Save Ashlee!" petitions are circling the Internet, it apparently stunned Jessica Simpson even more than her little sister.

Mel Gibson and Jon Gosselin Have Something in Common

Looks like Mel Gibson is a dad for the eighth time at the fresh young age of 53. Mel's Russian musician girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva (a name that never gets easier to type), reportedly gave birth to a baby girl this past Friday. 

Josh Duhamel Cheats On Fergie With Stripper

Remember the good 'ol days when the National Enquirer used to focus on crop circles and Jesus shaped french toast?  Now - after a string of verified breaking stories - when they report, people listen.  (Maybe you should take a second look at your breakfast after all.)

So when I read that the latest in philandering douche canoes was none other than His Royal Hotness Josh Duhamel...I sort of believe it.  It does have the ring of truth.  Especially since the stripper passed a polygraph. 

I Don't Give a Rat's Ass About Kate Hudson's Sex Life Do You?: A Poll

Every morning, while the maids are cleaning my house and my chef is preparing my favorite breakfast of tartines and café au lait, I like to peruse the online tabloids to see what all the other rich, famous people are up to. Usually I'll find an amusing story about Jon Gosselin to share at bridge, or a tragic bit about Lindsay Lohan that always reminds me to make sure the nanny is raising my kids right.

But today the story on the front page of every tabloid was about how much Kate Hudson loves sex. I don't really care about Kate Hudson's sex life, unless of course she's sleeping with my pool boy.

Gossip Rag Wednesday: Old News Edition

Fresh, new covers with dusty, old content! Whoo! Most of the tabloids this week seem to be reporting news that isn't actually news to anyone at all. Let's see exactly what we've got here.

This Week in Washed-Up Child Stars

Sorry, no nekkid celebs this week. Instead, I bring you dish on some washed up child actresses: The Parent Trap's Lindsay Lohan and Full House's Olsen Twins and Jodie Sweetin are in the news this week, for some reason.

David Cross Snorted Cocaine Near Barack Obama and Brags About It

I really enjoy the work of David Cross. I think he was brilliant on Arrested Development, but I have some questions about his judgment. For example, would you snort cocaine in a room with a bunch of secret service agents?

Rosie O'Donnell and Kelli Carpenter Splitting Up...Maybe

"Nothing else will be said," announced Rosie O'Donnell's publicist regarding strong rumors that the comedian and her wife of five years were separating. The publicist did confirm that the couple are having issues and are working through them.

T.R. Knight and Mark Cornelsen Have Split

T.R. Knight, of Grey's Anatomy fame, is openly gay, which is rare in Hollywood, where gay male movie and television stars have often been cast in hyper-masculine movie roles and then paired with women on the red carpet. As much as Knight's homosexuality seems relatively normalized within the press, I never expected that his love life would be reported in the same way as straight celebrities, that it would not still be treated as less valuable. Well, my expectations have been surprisingly and pleasantly blown.

This Week in Nekkid Celebrities Part 3 - Revenge of the Nipple

O hai dere. It's been a while since I brought you the latest news in nekkid celebs. Celebrity nipples have been pretty thin on the ground, unless you count Levi Johnston as a celebrity, which I don't. This week brings us Whitney Houston busting out of her dress, Meghan McCain's not-that-scandalous Twitter scandal and Elisabeth Hasselbeck's accidental MMS nipple.

John Mayer and the "Hang In There!" Motivational Poster Kitten with Sides of Courtney Love and Scott Baio

John Mayer bugged me on Twitter this morning, and not for the usual reasons he bugs me, like that time he told me too much about his penis or the thousand times he has made lamesauce jokes. I should probably just stop reading his Twitter feed, but like with Courtney Love and her translator, Courtney Translated, I keep going back to witness him in 140 characters or less.

The fate of Jon & Kate Plus Eight

No matter how you slice it, Jon & Kate Gosselin have become nothing more than a reality-TV cautionary tale and the pop-culture version of a really bad and seemingly never-ending joke. Just when you think it can't get any more uncomfortable or you can't possibly enjoy it any less, something happens to make you need a shower and a little time with the Duggars. And without the Gosselins, you'd NEVER need time with the Duggars.

What started as a family playing out the highs and lows of parenting a large family on TV has turned into a media circus and a tabloid story that just won't end. They are on countless magazine covers and talk shows and reputable news sources, even. They are the Angelina and Brad of reality TV. Except with far shittier haircuts. And they're not on anyone's freebie list.

Now, finally, there's an end in sight. Jon & Kate Plus Eight is over next month. For good.

The entire world just exhaled.

Heidi Klum Pops Out Another One

Confirmed, finally (I know that you were all holding your breath): Heidi Klum popped out that baby she's been gestating. Lou Samuel was born October 9. Daddy Seal says that it was "love at first sight." Which is good, really, because don't you just hate it when Dad really dislikes the baby at first sight? That sucks.

So let's deal with that name...
