THIS IS WHAT HAPPINESS LOOKS LIKE

Four year old Willy the polar bear lives in a zoo in North Carolina and apparently he’d been showing signs of melancholy. To cheer him up, the zoo surprised him with 5000 pounds of ice cubes and he almost exploded with happiness. Willy wallowed and rolled and nuzzled and licked the ice and seemed to be in complete ecstasy. Until it melted. It reminds us that he would probably be happier back at his arctic habitat.

Is this a picture perfect family or what? Halle Berry pulled the luggage while Gabriel Aubry carried their daughter Nahla through LAX when they arrived from New York. Approximately four years ago (around the time she met Gabriel,) Halle said that she wanted a baby, but she vowed that after two failures, she’d “never marry again.” Let’s see if she sticks to her guns.

We were RIGHT when we told you that Rihanna would go back to her abusive boyfriend Chris Brown after he beat her up. Chris was her first big love and she had a terrible time getting over him. Now Rihanna has confessed that she DID reunite with Chris, but eventually put love aside and came to her senses. She couldn’t bear to talk about the incident until now because she was still in love with Chris. We give Rihanna a lot of credit – both for confessing and for leaving Chris for good. We only hope she doesn’t change her mind. Since legally Chris is restrained from going anywhere near her, maybe she’ll have time to fall for someone else.

TYRA BANKS: NOT SO DEFIANT ANY MORE

Two years ago, Tyra Banks was photographed looking hefty in a bathing suit and on her show she defiantly told the world to “kiss my fat ass!” Well, it’s not so fat any more. Chubby fans might not be pleased to know that Tyra has pared off 30 pounds since that dramatic day and she’s very pleased with herself. Tyra is looking very natural in this recent photo of her in the East Village – with no apparent make up and what looks like her own hair.

JOEY FATONE TELLS IT LIKE IT IS

We appreciate Joey Fatone laughing at himself with this t-shirt. Sure, he’d like to have an ‘Nsync reunion after seven years of separation, but ALL the members must agree, and that can take time. Before this photo was taken, Joey was in the audience at “Dancing with the Stars.” ABC is polling viewers about who they’d like to see return to DWTS and Joey is one of the favorites, along with Drew Lachey and Mel B.

SPENCER PRATT: WOULD YOU TAKE ADVICE FROM THIS MAN?

Hold onto your lunch, we just heard that Spencer Pratt wants to go from “The Hills” to a motivational speaking career! An insider has leaked that Spencer is in talks with The Learning Annex to participate in a series of lectures where he’ll share his secrets about “how to become rich and famous.” If things work out, he’d eventually love to travel around the country and appear with other speakers at paid self improvement seminars. We’re flabbergasted.

These little mini-pigs are becoming VERY popular and Victoria and David Beckham love to jump on the trend bandwagon early. The Beckhams paid around $2000 for a pair of the piglets (considerably less money than one of Victoria’s handbags costs.) The adorable pigs only weigh around 9 ounces at birth and grow to be about 14 inches tall and up to 65 pounds. The pigs can be housebroken, and will have a comfortable home at the Beckhams sprawling compound outside London. We only hope they’re not forgotten when they grow up.

MICHAEL JACKSON: DON’T STOP TILL YOU GET ENOUGH

Janet — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 02:01:18 +0000

We think this is one of the funniest videos we’ve seen in ages. A man looking out of an office building window filmed a guy dancing like Michael Jackson as he waited for a bus day after day for thirteen MONTHS! You can watch the seasons and wardrobe change, and the bus stop dancer never disappoints. Our talented colleague Stephen Saban found this video and posted it at The WOW Report. Watching this video makes you wonder about not only the bus stop guy, but the man who had the patience to film him for over a year. Who ARE they?

MADONNA WANTS JESUS TO BE AS AMBITIOUS AS SHE IS

Madonna is a tornado of ambition and she wants her boyfriend Jesus Luz to be the same way. (He’s always been entirely too fond of lying on the beach.) She’s been making connections for him to get modeling jobs – but that’s not enough. She also wants him moonlighting as a DJ. It’s rumored that she spent $30,000 on DJ equipment for him this summer and now she’s getting him booked at celebrity parties in New York. If SHE’S at the party, Jesus doesn’t play her music because he says she hears it enough at home.

WILL KIRSTIE ALLEY REVISIT HOUSE OF PIES ON HER NEW REALITY SHOW?

Janet — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 04:25:50 +0000

The reality show that Kirstie Alley has been shopping around found a home at the A&E network. Shooting starts this month and supposedly the show will feature Kirstie’s battle to lose weight, raise her kids, produce a movie, and hunt for a boyfriend. (We can already imagine her on the Plenty of Fish dating site posting an old photo.) We wonder if any of Kirstie’s SECRET activities will be featured on the show. Last July we wrote the following item about Kirstie and it would have made great TV:

“Taco Bell isn’t Kirstie Alley’s only diet enemy. It seems she also has a weakness for House of Pies. Employees at a nearby business have seen Kirstie eating pie in her car in the parking lot of the House of Pies on Vermont. And it’s happened more than once. She bought two or three pies to go, and brought them out to her car and devoured most of them right then and there.“
