Simon Cowell Quite Possibly Knocked Up a Friend’s Wife
Cantankerous reality show mogul Simon Cowell now has even more to yell about, because it's being reported that a friend's wife is pregnant with his child. Yikes.
Demi Lovato is going to have a field day with this.
Guess the Celebrity Crib
If you have 10 million or so burning a hole in your pocket, this picturesque house currently owned by an Academy Award winner could be yours. Just try not to cry over the huge price tag, boys.

Guess the Celebrity Crib
This Los Angeles home was recently purchased by an always hunky and often shirtless werewolf. Because he's just not pale and weak enough to be one of those pathetic vampires all the teenagers love.
In fact, he does such a good job howling at the moon that in 2011 he was voted "Favorite Pop-Culture Werewolf of All Time." Yup, of all time. (Talk about your resume-boosters.)

The Royal Baby’s Name Means Absolutely Nothing + That Town Crier Was a Fraud

Here’s That Driveway Amanda Bynes Set on Fire [PHOTOS]
Amanda Bynes was placed on a psychiatric hold on Monday night (July 22) after setting some of her clothing on fire in a stranger's driveway. Now the homeowner is happily sharing the damage with the media.
Won't that be a story to tell her grandchildren one day as they gleefully ask, "Who's Amanda Bynes?"
Kirstie Alley + John Travolta to Reunite on Her New Show ‘Kirstie’
Someone thought it would be a good idea to give Kirstie Alley yet another show -- super-creatively named 'Kirstie' -- but hey, at least it'll feature John Travolta as a guest star.
Let's just hope this reunion is better than the one he did with Olivia Newton-John. (The horror. The holiday horror.)
