Style Showdown: Blake Lively vs. Rihanna vs. Madonna
When it comes to setting, not just following fashion trends, Blake Lively, Rihanna and Madonna all know a thing or two about a thing or two. But who will prevail in this fashion face-off and who'll get the boot (sort of literally)?
The Queen of Pop and the Gossip Girl star both wore Stella McCartney thigh-highs out recently, but it was the "Only Girl in the World" singer who actually wore them first (last fall). Who do they look best on? You tell us!

Kurt Warner Voted Off Dancing With the Stars
While Monday's episode of Dancing With the Stars was a bit of a blur, last night's was a bit of a foregone conclusion. One of two people would be leaving us.
Those people were not Kyle Massey, Jennifer Grey or Brandy.The instant dance portion of the night helped them, but Kurt Warner and Bristol Palin suffered.
It was these low-scoring celebs who had to worry. When Brandy was placed in the bottom two with Kurt, it was over. The conspiracy theory is alive and well.
"I think, obviously there was the possibility when you're at the bottom two," Kurt Warner said. "We came in a number of times this year when we were low and kind of expected that the possibility was there, and you prepare yourself for that."
"I'm going to miss [Anna Trebunskaya]," added two-time NFL MVP Kurt. "You know, I mean, when you spend so much time with someone and build this relationship, you know, it's going to be tough not seeing her every day."
"You're going to miss Monday nights," joked partner Anna. "You're going to miss going out there in the bright neon green with fringes on your pants."

Kurt Warner and Anna Trebunskaya gave it a heck of a run.
Ridiculous as it is that Bristol Palin is somehow in the final four this season, the ousted NFL quarterback didn't seem to be shocked by the outcome Tuesday."I think, obviously there was the possibility when you're at the bottom two," Kurt Warner said.

American Idol Auditions: News, Notes and Country Singers Galore!
With American Idol set to return to the air in January, auditions are underway for the next Adam Lambert or Kris Allen.
How are they going so far? Producer Nigel Lythgoe answered that question for People magazine this week, going into detail on a number of topics. To wit:
Who has auditioned so far? "We're seeing quite a lot of country singers, a lot of young talent because we've opened it up to 15-year-olds now."
How is J-Lo faring as a judge? "Jennifer actually critiques what's in front of her. She doesn't just throw out glib remarks. She listens, she weighs it up and then she says how she feels."
And Steven Tyler? "[He] doesn't have a bad bone in his body and finds it very difficult to say 'you suck' to anybody."
What's his take on instruments? "People sort of lost a little bit behind instruments. I see no reason why we won't use guitars and pianos at least once or twice across the season, but I don't just want them everyday behind the bloody guitar."
And celebrity guest judges? "I'm not sure I'm going to use any guest judges, to be frank. We've got an entire record company behind it now with Interscope. We've got Jimmy Iovine and all of his producers... You've got real professionals here. I don't know why I need anyone else. They'll just get in the way."
Think that's a good plan? Are you excited for season 10 of American Idol?

Runs in the Family: Darlene Egelhoff, Heidi Montag's Mom, is Flat Broke
It's been a rough year for Darlene Egelhoff.
Aside from her estranged relationship with Heidi Montag since February, the mother of three and her husband, Tim, also now face financial problems.
Timberlines, a popular restaurant featured on The Hills and owned by Heidi's folks in Crested Butte, Colo., went out of business after a 21-year run.
Egelhoff admits she hit such a low that, at the end of last year, she even borrowed money from Heidi Montag, who's now close to bankrupt herself.
Even that wasn't enough, however, and she's gone from owning that restaurant and making appearances on The Hills to working as a maid for a living.
"The work is sporadic and competitive," Egelhoff says of her new gig. "My work is not enough to pay the bills. We need other work immediately. [My son] Sky is eligible for free lunch at school and is proud to take advantage of it."
Despite the hardships she and her family have faced, Egelhoff maintains a positive outlook on life and on the possibility of reconciling with Heidi.
"I have no regrets in life," she says. "I feel like God makes all things for good, and the most difficult situations we go through in life are opportunities. That's when we build character and strength – during difficult times."
"I love Heidi more every day, even though I don't talk to her. I love her unconditionally. I have confidence that we will have a loving, strong relationship again. I think it just takes time. Heidi and I were so close when she was growing up."
"I think she needed to disconnect from me to discover herself."
Unfortunately, she also discovered Spencer Pratt.

Report: Demi Lovato is Rehabbing in Illinois
Demi Lovato is receiving treatment at a facility outside of Chicago.
Gossip Center spies say they saw the singer's family members at Timberline Knolls Residential Treatment Center over the weekend, which is located in Lemont, Illinois.
Gossip Center spies say they saw the singer's family members at Timberline Knolls Residential Treatment Center over the weekend, which is located in Lemont, Illinois.
Information about patients is kept private, of course, but the facility's website says residents get involved in local causes at "nursing homes, animal shelters, children's hospitals and veteran's organizations.
"Volunteer work is an important part of residential treatment because it reinforces the ability to connect with others," reads the site. "It also helps them realize that they are not the only ones who face lifelong challenges and need the assistance of others in this world to live a healthy and fulfilling life."
We continue to wish Demi very well, and continue to hope her father learns to shut up about his daughter. We'd welcome a fight between Patrick Lovato and Michael Lohan, wouldn't you?
Kristian Herzog Likely Nailed Oksana Grigorieva; Lies Piling Up For Mel Gibson Baby Mama
Kristian Herzog was Oksana Grigorieva's former bodyguard. He also claims he was her lover, which she denies. So who's the liar and what does it matter?
Well, it looks like Oksana's legal team lied last month when they denied she had an intimate relationship Herzog, a convicted felon and her ex-bodyguard.
That's according to emails between the bodyguard and Oksana's lawyer, which TMZ has obtained. So they probably smashed it up. Why is this significant?
He says he has at least 1,000 text messages and emails in which he communicates with Oksana about her case and evidence (hello, Mel Gibson tapes).
If his credibility were disputed, it would help Oksana's claims against Mel Gibson. But if she's a proven liar, it boosts Mel's case that she extorted him.
It looks like Oksana Grigorieva is indeed a proven liar.
An email Herzog sent to Martin Garbus, an Oksana lawyer, reads: "Martin: Do you agree that Team Oksana at some point, needs to admit Oksana and Dan LIED to TMZ and you need to tell the truth that in fact Oksana and I were intimate?"
The next morning, Garbus responded with one word: "Yes."
Dan is Dan Horowitz, another one of her many lawyers. He explains the email: "Marty's job was to placate Kris, because once he got cut out of Oksana's world completely, we assessed him to be a clear and present danger to her life."
"By stringing him along and making him feel more important, we hoped that he would just fade away rather than explode and hurt somebody."
But there's even more to it. TMZ has Oksana Grigorieva pictures in which she's wearing a nightgown, sitting on a bed with Herzog at her home.
But Horowitz tells us the pictures were taken during a People magazine photo shoot and were in no way intimate. Anyone out there buying that?
It's worth noting that the judge in the Mel-Oksana custody case issued a restraining order against Herzog, concluding he was a danger to Lucia.
Basically, everyone involved is shady and a huge mess.
