Even the leader of the free world needs his DVR. He just got it installed, according to People Magazine , and on it are a pair of premium cable dramas. President Obama loves Showtime’s critically acclaimed new spy thriller Homeland , starring Claire Danes, and HBO’s Boardwalk Empire . As for what he watches with the kids? With its multi-cultural, 21st Century appropriate casting, Modern Family is the pick. Not just because it’s a good answer, either – the show is pretty darn funny. “For the girls and me, Modern Family , that’s our favorite show,” the Prez says. Asked if they lets daughters Malia, 13, and Sasha, 10, use Facebook, Barack and Michelle Obama say they do not, but that it is not a hard decision to enforce. Their theory is, “Why would we want to have a whole bunch of people who we don’t know knowing our business? That doesn’t make much sense,” she says. But when the First Lady points out the relatively young ages of their daughters, the President laughs and adds, “We’ll see how they feel in four years.”
Um…stay in school? From its nondescript awning on 33rd Street near Penn Station, you wouldn’t think Rick’s Cabaret houses some of the highest earners in the city. But some of the dancers here bank more than a half-million dollars a year — as good as most hedge-fund traders on Wall Street. Rick’s, frequented by high-rolling athletes and celebrities, as well as commuters looking for a drink and a quick lap dance on their way home from work, is a well-oiled machine where the house pulls down $300,000 in a good week. The 1,200 dancers that work in Manhattan sign on as independent contractors and pay about $200 a night for the right to strip at the club. The best hustlers bring home between $600,000 and $800,000 a year — and that’s just the dollars the club tracks through credit-card purchases, and doesn’t factor in cash tips, which could push their annual take to seven figures in a good year. One woman even tells a story about a man that was paying her a stack just to get her to sit next to him for an hour. Man, hoes stay winning! And men stay losing. Give that money to some homeless people or something, geez. Source More On Bossip!

Victory!!! Straight from Ari Gold’s mouth: “Entourage” is coming to the big screen. Jeremy Piven announced the upcoming movie while visiting “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” on Wednesday, New York Magazine’s Vulture reports. After sharing the good news, Piven, famous for playing foul-mouthed talent agent Ari Gold on the HBO show, apologized for all the bleeps caused by his character’s “fudge,” and “flarfegnugen.” In September, Jerry Ferrara (Turtle to “Entourage” fans) told CNN he was optimistic about a movie. “There’s been a lot of interest and I think it’s really going to boil down to what does Doug Ellin have left in the tank for a movie and the script,” Ferrara said. “If all those things are right, and if [the business side] makes sense, I think there will absolutely be a movie.” Well, we will definitely be in theaters when this one comes out!

Astro was eliminated from The X Factor last night and, to the young rapper’s credit, he did not throw a temper tantrum like he did in a similar situation two weeks ago . Heck, he barely even cried.

Congratulations are in order for lil Justin Dior Combs: Justin Combs, son of international music mogul, Sean “Diddy” Combs, today announced that he has chosen to attend the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), where he will be awarded a full scholarship to play football at the Division I school. The younger Combs, a 5-foot-9, 175-pound cornerback from Iona Prep, chose the Bruins over offers from Wyoming, Virginia, and Illinois, among others. After hitting the 7v7 camp circuit with the “GoonSquad” All-American 7v7 team this past spring, he quickly started to generate a buzz and secured his first Division I scholarship offer back in April. The latest Bruin commit has also been selected to play in the inaugural Marine Semper Fi All-American Game held in Phoenix, AZ January 3rd, part of college football’s Fiesta Bowl weekend. Combs, who carries a 3.75 GPA and is the Head of the African American Society at his school, will enroll in UCLA this fall and will major in Business Finance. Combs said he felt the combination of academic excellence and winning tradition at UCLA made his decision clear. JUSTIN COMBS STATEMENT: “Today I am truly blessed and thankful to accept my scholarship and give my full commitment to UCLA. Playing division I football was a life long dream of mine, and through hard work I was able to achieve it. I am a living testament that with a strong relationship with God, family, and hard work dreams do come true.” SEAN COMBS STATEMENT: “As a parent, today is one of the proudest moments of my life. This is everything a father could want for his son, for him to excel at what he loves to do and is truly passionate about. Justin is a shining example of what hard work, determination and a strong mentality can achieve. I am honored to call him my son and am happy that he is fulfilling his dream.” Wonderful! Kudos to Justin for working hard, maintaining good grades, and getting that full ride to UCLA (not like he needs it though)…Puff should certainly be proud.
