Ryan Lochte, Michael Phelps to Go Dancing With the Stars?

The London Olympics are almost over, but will we see swimming studs Ryan Lochte and Michael Phelps square off on Dancing With the Stars next? A newly-retired Phelps said earlier in the week that he wouldn’t rule out following in the footsteps of Olympians who have gone on the ABC show. He’d probably do well, but if it’s up to his teammate and friendly rival Lochte, he’d best prepare himself for some stiff competition on the parquet. “Since I’m so used to competing against Michael Phelps, I’d go on [Dancing with the Stars] with him,” said Lochte, who won five medals in 2012. ” I could do Dancing with the Stars ! Yeah, I think so.” No doubt Ryan Lochte’s sister and mom in the audience cheering him on alongside Michael Phelps’ mom in what would be a rematch for the ages. Or at least reality TV. Who’d you rather see on DWTS?

Deena follows in the footsteps of her BFF – remember Snooki without makeup earlier this month? – and we have to say, the change is a positive (albeit short-lived one). Doesn’t she look good?

Ginnifer Goodwin’s Something Borrowed Plight Explained in 1990s Rap Terms

If you’d dismissed the upcoming Ginnifer Goodwin-Kate Hudson wedding-themed chick flick Something Borrowed as just another Bride Wars -esque lady comedy, think again; Something Borrowed tackles a subject that’s been on the minds of modern artists for decades — the moral lines between friendship, love, sex, and betrayal.

James Van Der Beek to Play James Van Der Beek on ABC Pilot

’90s television stars: They’re all about the meta! Following in the footsteps of Neil Patrick Harris (who played “Neil Patrick Harris” in the Harold and Kumar franchise) and Matt LeBlanc (who is currently playing “Matt LeBlanc” on the Showtime series Episodes ), James Van Der Beek will play “himself” in the ABC pilot Don’t Trust the Bitch in Apt. 23 . (Expect that hilarious title to change.) The show is about a June, Midwestern girl who moves to New York to live with Chloe, a wild party girl.
