Snooki Arrested!

How could anyone arrest Snooki? She's always just being her fun, bubbly herself. But, they've done it. The popo' have just gotten ahold of our dear favorite snookums in Seaside Heights, NJ. Apparently, it was for disorderly conduct. Really, now? That's just her personality! There's no "disorder" in her personality!

Snooks, real name Nicole Polizzi -- is currently in police custody. Tear.

Earlier in the day, our fist-pumping beauty was partying on the beach with a beer bong ... but was apparently filling it up with soda. She was also seen at a local bar taking "body shots."

If only I were in Seaside Heights right now. I'd be ride outside that jail picketing until my legs fell off. We're behind you Snooks!

Heidi Montag Backs Out of Reality Show Because Personal Life is a Mess

So Heidi Montag was supposed to do some new reality show with The Hills lemming Jen Bunney. Now, Heidi's backing out and leaving Jen to fend for herself.

“Originally I was supposed to do a reality show with Heidi, but right now it looks like some things have changed,” Bunney said on her blog.

Apparently, she said Heidi doesn't want to be involved in reality TV because of the mess that's going on in her personal life. Priorities, my darlings, priorities.

However, there's been talk that Heidi's been chatting with Hugh Hefner's latest bed buddies Kristina and Karissa Shannon (for whatever reason), to do a reality show with them. What the heck kind of reality show could they possibly make? Other than it being about three idiot blondes being in bikinis all day, I see it going nowhere.

Linda Hogan Engaged to Baby Boyfriend

This is disgusting. I mean, I thought it was gross when they were just dating. But now Linda Hogan is actually engaged to 21-year-old Charlie Hill? Sick. He's a child compared to her! He's only a year older than her daughter Brooke...Does no one else see something wrong with this?!

Charlie and Brooke first met in school (how sweet) and now he's sharing a bed with her mom. And now, Charlie's going to become her step-dad! Adorable.

I smell a reality show...

Contractual Issues Don't Stop Jersey Shore Round 3

You couldn't have thought there wouldn't be some glitches in a process involving this group. But thank heaven they ironed it all out. I don't know what I'd do without Snooki.

Season 3 for Jersey Shore had to wait to begin this week for some contractual issues to be resolved. Salon appointments are expensive, people.

"MTV is pleased that the 'Jersey Shore' cast are returning to Seaside Heights," the network wrote in a statement. "Not only have they become a part of the MTV family, but fans worldwide have fallen in love with them."

It's been said that the cast will earn $30,000 per episode. Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino led the strike, saying he wanted "anywhere between $27,500 to $45,000 per episode." Yeah, he would. But I'd think he'd be fine with the workout DVD's and supplement development productions he's got going on. Maybe they're not doing well? Hm. I'm surprised.

Anyway, I'm very excited this is all worked out. Keep pumping those fists, guys!

LiLo to go Full Frontal! (Not in Jail)

I know what you're thinking, and that's why I added the bit about this not being in jail. Remember the buzz (pre 'I Know Who Jailed Me '10) concerning Lindsay Lohan and that movie Inferno (the biopic about porn star Linda Lovelace)? I'll catch you up to speed.

Okay, just to separate this from all the jail stuff because I know it's been hard lately, Lindsay was a serious actress once upon a time. Before she starred in Lynwood County Prison she did a few feature films. And, before she entered jail a couple days ago, she was set to start filming a movie about a porn star. Now, it's being released she's going to go full frontal in the movie. Keepin' it classy Linds.

Enrique Kisses a Fan Onstage

Apparently I was in the wrong place this morning, because Enrique Iglesias was kissing some random fan onstage at the Today show in NYC.

Enrique, whose new album 'Euphoria' was recently released, stopped by the show to perform for fans in Rockefeller Plaza.

The most exciting moment for the crowd (and depressing moment for me) came during the ballad 'Hero,' when ahem -- my boyfriend -- brought some random chick who wasn't me on stage to serenade and kiss.

Melissa -- the Bronx, N.Y. fan that the Latin pop star locked lips with -- bragged, 'It was nice ... I mean, it was hot. I'm thinking dirty thoughts."

Yeah, she better run.

Spencer Pratt Displays Insanity...No One's Surprised

When Spencer Pratt was un-invited to "The Hills" finale party, we were all left wondering whether or not he was going to pull a 'Spencer' (aka do something off-the-wall). Well, he answered that question when he showed up basically looking like an old homeless man, standing across the street of The Roosevelt Hotel (where the party was being held).

Apparently, the guests (Lauren Conrad, Lo Bosworth, Audrina Patridge, etc...) were actually afraid of what Spencer might do. I would be too...Have you seen him lately?

This is what he had to say:

Lindsay Goes to Rehab

In a desperate attempt to do anything to avoid jail, Lindsay Lohan entered rehab yesterday to prove she's really willing to change her ways. And I'm still not buying it.

Lindsay entered Pickford Lofts, her new lawyer Robert Shapiro's rehab facility. How very interesting. Fun fact number two: Shapiro was also an OJ Simpson attorney. Also interesting.

LiLo was visited yesterday by her momager Dina, her assistant Eleanor, her ex Samantha Ronson, sister Ali and her rumored-to-be new girlfriend Eilat Anschel.

Eleanor brought in pillows and bags from an art supply store (LiLo has to keep up fingerpainting), a case of Sprite and toilet paper (how dare you assume Lindsay would use generic). Sam showed up around 10 pm and stayed for 45 minutes. Ahh...just enough time.

Have fun Linds. See you in jail in a few days!

Janice Dickinson: Dr. Drew's Latest Project

Self-proclaimed (every time she speaks, actually) 'world's first supermodel' Janice Dickinson is Celebrity Rehab's newest addition. Let's say it together...FINALLY! Woman has needed help ever since...well ever since she came back on the scene and started flashing her vajayjay in public and screaming/yelling obscenities at the air.

Now, when I first heard she was going to rehab I didn't really care what it was for -- because frankly, it could be for a myriad of things. I was just excited she's going, and more importantly that it's going to be TELEVISED.

Vince Vaughn and Wife Expecting

Wait...Vince Vaughn has a wife? The last person I heard he was dating was Jennifer Aniston (obviously I know they've been broken up)...And I'm pretty up-to-date on my celebrity gossip...I had no clue he had been dating anyone since he broke up with Jen -- but he's married? Hmm. Interesting. Well, newsflash -- he is. Double newsflash -- they're having a kid.

Anyways, the chick he's married to is Kyla Weber. Don't know her? Yeah, me neither. She's no A-lister, but a real estate agent! I think that's a good thing for Vince. In my opinion, the best matches for these Hollywood stars are the ones that aren't of the same kind -- catch my drift? A la Matt Damon and his non A-list wife Luciana.
