Hugh Hefner: Holly Madison is Full of It!

Over the past few weeks, Holly Madison has been promoting her new book, Down the Rabbit Hole: Curious Adventures and Cautionary Tales of a Former Playboy Bunny. In doing so she’s shared some seriously unflattering stories about her former boss and boyfriend, Hugh Hefner. First, we learned that life at the Playboy Mansion made Holly ponder suicide . Shortly thereafter, Holly went into specifics, revealing that Hefner tried to buy her  with a $3 million inheritance. She added that within minutes of their first meeting, he attempted to ply her with Quaaludes, which he called “thigh openers.” Like we said, she doesn’t exactly describe old Hef in the most glowing terms. So perhaps it’s not surprising that Hefner is now firing back and claiming that Madison is lying about everything from the way they met to his allegedly nefarious seduction methods.  “Over the course of my life, I’ve had more than my fair share of romantic relationships with wonderful women,” said Hefner in a statement to Entertainment Tonight. “Many moved on to live happy, healthy and productive lives, and I’m pleased to say remain dear friends today. Sadly, there are a few who have chosen to rewrite history in an attempt to stay in the spotlight. I guess, as the old saying goes: You can’t win ’em all!””  Madison has already fired back, saying, “I don’t really care about his response. I wanted to share my story to inspire other women who might be in a bad relationship to get out, or not be branded by bad decisions they’ve made, and take charge of their lives and move on.” “I’m definitely not rewriting history. I’m finally telling the truth of my experience.” Though Hefner made no mention of taking legal action against Madison, we wouldn’t be surprised if this thing ends up in court. There’s a case that’s likely to have some very interesting testimony.  View Slideshow: 19 Stars Who Have Posed in Playboy

Jim Bob and Josh Duggar: Caught Lying Under Oath?!

In recent weeks, it began to seem as though the worst of the Josh Duggar molestation scandal was over. Josh’s parents and two of his victims broke their silence in interviews with Fox News’ Megyn Kelly, and in the surest sign yet that the Duggars are doing their best to put the ugliness of recent weeks behind them, Jill and Jessa Duggar were spotted in public for the first time since the world learned of their family’s dark secret. It now looks as though it may not be as easy for the Duggars to move on and reclaim their place as reality TV’s favorite family as their fans had hoped. Earlier today, we reported that Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar are still under investigation by local police in Tontitown, Arkansas. Now, Radar Online is reporting that Josh and Jim Bob allegedly lied under oath during the course of a 2013 civil suit. It seems that Josh and Jim Bob are the co-owners of a used car dealership, and together, they filed suit against an insurance company for a deal gone wrong. Court documents show that Jim Bob and Josh were both asked about any prior arrests or police investigations in which they were involved. Both men answered all such questions with, “The Plaintiffs state that no such records exist.” The case is already settled, and Josh and Jim Bob are unlikely to face any legal consequences for their false statements, but this latest allegation serves as yet another indication that there may be more skeletons in the Duggar’s closet than we initially thought.

Hannibal: Canceled By NBC!

You may want to sit down and pour yourselves a nice Chianti for this one, Hannibal fans. Entertainment Weekly reported moments ago that the acclaimed drama has been canceled by NBC . In a statement, showrunner Bryan Fuller expressed his gratitude to the network for allowing him so much creative freedom, and more than a few second chances: “NBC has allowed us to craft a television series that no other broadcast network would have dared,” Fuller said. “[They] kept us on the air for three seasons despite Cancellation Bear Chow ratings and images that would have shredded the eyeballs of lesser Standards & Practices enforcers. “Hannibal is finishing his last course at NBC’s table this summer, but a hungry cannibal can always dine again. And personally, I look forward to my next meal with NBC.” The remaining episodes of the show’s third season will continue to air Thursday nights at 10 pm. Devoted fans remain hopeful that another network or streaming service will pick up the cultishly adored series, just as Hulu picked up The Mindy Project after it was canceled by Fox last month. Fortunately, if the worst-case scenario comes to pass, and this is really the last meal for TV’s favorite (only?) cannibal, Fuller assures fans that he was prepared for the possibility, and the final episode of season 3 finale also functions as a suitable series finale. As always, you can watch Hannibal online at TV Fanatic to relive your favorite moments. View Slideshow: 9 TV Shows That SHOULD Be Canceled

Emilia Clarke to Star in Fifty Shades of Grey?

Another day, another Fifty Shades of Grey cast rumor. This one may be better received than most, however. The latest gossip is that the Fifty Shades of Grey producers’ favorite choice for Anastasia Steele is none other than Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke. According to MTV UK, Cara Delevingne auditioned for the role, but didn’t win it (though she is reportedly still in the running for other parts in the film). Emilia, meanwhile, has emerged as a real contender. She has as big a fan base as other actresses who have been linked to the role – Dakota Johnson , Alicia Vikander, Imogen Poots, Shailene Woodley, etc. Other fan picks include Alexis Bledel and Lucy Hale, but we don’t expect they’ll get a serious look. Clarke, on the other hand, may have the look and the chops. The main problem with Emilia, 26, might be scheduling conflicts, since she’s currently working on a movie called Rosaline on top of Game of Thrones . What do you think: Should she play Ana?   Yes! She’d be perfect! No! Someone else! View Poll »

Kris Humphries Feels Bad for Lamar Odom, Still Hates the Kardashians

As he battles an alleged cocaine addiction , Lamar Odom has a surprising fan in his corner: Kris Humphries. The estranged ex-husband of Kim Kardashian is reportedly away of Odom’s plight and “feels bad for the guy,” an anonymous insider tells Radar Online, adding that Kris somehow thinks “the Kardashian public relations spin machine will have a negative effect [on] Lamar’s NBA career.” Wait… what? Won’t the drugs have a negative effect on Lamar’s NBA career? Humphries allegedly says he was the “victim of countless attacks” by a certain tabloid while married to Kardashian… and this same tabloid is the one that reported Odom as missing when the player’s agent says Khloe was always aware of Lamar’s whereabouts. The implication, we guess, is that the Kardashians are planting rumors about Odom to make him look bad. Although it’s unclear why this would possibly be the case. “There should be a support group for the former husbands and boyfriends of the Kardashians ,” the Radar insider concludes. We agree! Once Kris counts his millions and films the cameo on The Mindy Project that never would have come about if not for his marriage to Kim, we’ll totally break out our violins for the guy.

Kris Humphries to Portray Himself on The Mindy Project

Move over, Kim Kardashian . Your ex is also about to make a splash on the small screen. Only instead of getting naked and taking it from Ray J, Kris Humphries will be making a guest-starring appearance on an episode of The Mindy Project Season 2. According to TV Guide, the Boston Celtics power forward will play himself. It’s unclear what brings The Hump into Mindy’s world, although the sitcom’s title character does often reference television and pop culture. Last year, fellow NBA players Amar’e Stoudemire and Danny Granger also stopped by the series, showing up at a club Mindy and her colleagues frequented. This gig will mark Humphries’ first acting role, though many believe he was merely reading from a script every time he appeared on camera during his courtship of Kim. Kardashian, meanwhile, has appeared on Drop Dead Diva and How I Met Your Mother and also helps anchor the legendary Ray J sex tape .
