Whether she’s bashing Amanda Knox or treating fans to a full-on nipple slip on Dancing With the Stars, Nancy Grace certainly knows how to get people talking. The question is whether any of that talk will be positive. Grace tried to up her game last night, but still ended up at the bottom of the Dancing With the Stars scores . She lacked drama. Passion. Excitement. Emotion. If she could move her body the way she runs her mouth, she would be a tough competitor on this show. On the plus side, at least she didn’t fart live this week. Watch Grace get manhandled by Tristan MacManus and wind up lying flat on her back (a visual you know you’ve been dreaming about) in the clip below … Nancy Grace on Dancing With the Stars (Week 4)
The Real Housewives of New Jersey painted an absurd family portrait on this week’s season finale – but they aren’t finished yet! The women will get back together on Sunday night for what Bravo is hyping as the “most dramatic reunion” in show history. Wow. The writers must have been up late penning the script for this one! Look for it to be highlighted by an exchange between Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga in which the former snaps at the latter: “You’re the devil. You’re wearing red.” Watch a sneak peek at the contrived madness below: Real Housewives of New Jersey Reunion Clip
Newly-minted contender and fan favorite Rob Kardashian channeled Superman last night for his movie-themed paso doble routine on Dancing With the Stars. Bold move, likening one’s self to the Man of Steel. But Rob delivered. With Cheryl Burke as his Lois Lane, the judges were quite pleased … words that had never before been spoken about a Kardashian on this show. Sorry Kim. Bruno said it’s time for Rob “to leave Smallville and take on the world.” With the CW hit now a thing of the last, perhaps Roberto is ready to carry the mantle. His performance earned a solid 24 points, putting him in a tie for third behind only Ricki Lake and J.R. Martinez. Watch the super routine right here: Rob Kardashian on Dancing With the Stars (Week 4)
Next closest competitor is war hero J.R. Martinez, who went from tears last week to a humorous dance. By Kelley L. Carter Ricki Lake and Derek Hough Photo: ABC It was movie night on Monday night’s “Dancing With the Stars,” and the celebrities and their dance partners were hoping their stories would be the box-office draw with the judges. Once again, former talk-show host Ricki Lake ended up on top of the board, earning this season’s first perfect 10 scores from two of the three judges. Here’s how everyone fared: Chynna Phillips and Tony Dovolani The couple danced the tango to the “Mission Impossible” theme song, and the judges noted the mistakes Phillips made in her routine. But they were merciful in their comments, saying that what she did right was beautiful and that she didn’t lose her composure. “The challenge is for the professional,” said head judge Len Goodman. “They’ve got to maintain the character of the dance but still show us a little bit of the flavor of the film. I thought you got it just about right. You lost it, you went wrong, you didn’t know where you were and you panicked. I’m sure had you nailed it, it was going to be great. Unfortunately, there were a lot of mistakes.” 21/30 David Arquette and Kym Johnson Dancing the paso doble to the “Raiders of the Lost Ark” theme song, Arquette and Johnson were hoping his background in Hollywood might give them the leg up. It did the trick: The judges thought he was in control and loved his attitude. “I love the way you crack your whip!” Bruno Tonioli said of Arquette’s Indiana Jones accessory. “Like an action hero! Ready to take us into a wild ride! Watch your turns.” 23/30 Carson Kressley and Anna Trebunskaya Kressley earned a standing ovation last week and impressed the judges. This week, he took on the Viennese waltz to the “Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl” theme song, and Goodman said it was like childbirth: terrible and then a joy when it is over. That said, he added that it was great fun, and if he were an at-home voter, he’d phone in for him. “I’m still recovering,” judge Carrie Ann Inaba said. “It was kind of like being on the ride. But weirder. I have to say this is your most butch performance you’ve ever done. I am addicted to your performances because I know I’m going to have a great time, but then I watch the technique … ” 20/30 Nancy Grace and Tristan MacManus The TV host took on the paso doble this week to a song from “Flash Gordon,” and the judges thought her routine lacked expression. “I can’t get excited about it. It was OK, but I can’t get excited about it,” Goodman said. 21/30 Hope Solo and Maksim Chmerkovskiy The two danced the foxtrot to a tune from “Toy Story,” and the judges found the Olympian’s dance to be lovely. They thought their performance lit up the room and talked up the chemistry between the dancing couple. Goodman said he thought they could last until the end and win the whole thing. “It made me smile the whole way though,” Inaba added. “This show is about beating our expectations, and that was exactly that. It was so refreshing to see you out there having fun. Well done.” 24/30 Rob Kardashian and Cheryl Burke The reality star and his partner danced the paso doble to the “Superman” theme song, and they were hoping to capitalize on last week’s high note, when Goodman told Rob he put the “dash” in Kardashian). “I like the way you move,” Inaba said. “There is something about the way you move that is steady and just the way a man should be in the ballroom. You’re fluid. It all works. I love it. Today, you took it up a notch. It was spicy and had some Superman flavor going.” 24/30 Ricki Lake and Derek Hough Last week’s top finisher tangoed to a song from “Psycho,” and the talk-show host earned a standing ovation from the audience, which included celebrity attendees like Dr. Phil and Cher, mother of Chaz Bono. Inaba said her performance was “brilliance in the ballroom.” Brilliance, indeed. They earned a pair of perfect 10’s (from Tonioli and Inaba), the first of the season. “You … always deliver,” Goodman said, despite giving Ricki her only 9. “You’ve got to get a little bit more neck going. But I tell you what, top of the leaderboard, I think so.” 29/30 Chaz Bono and Lacey Schwimmer Bono and Schwimmer landed in the bottom of the leaderboard last week but hoped to change all that with the paso doble to the theme from “Rocky.” His mother seemed thrilled with his performance. The judges? They loved it too. Inaba cried and said Bono was an underdog and wanted to root for him. “Chaz, in the true spirit of ‘Rocky,’ no matter how many knocks you take, you keep coming back, you keep fighting, and you keep getting stronger,” Tonioli said. 21/30 J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff The war hero did the foxtrot to the “Pink Panther” theme. It was a whimsical way to chase last week’s emotional dance that had the judges (and nearly everyone in the audience) in tears. This week, the judges were mixed. Goodman crowned him the best male dancer and liked his tweak of humor and Tonioli liked his technique, but Inaba wasn’t all that impressed. “I thought it was OK,” she said to loud boos from the audience. “I love your frame. The technique is all there. But for some reason, this fell a little flat for me. I think it’s the humor. You didn’t need the humor. I think the humor didn’t quite make it tonight for me.” 26/30 Did you expect Ricki Lake to get the season’s first 10’s? Let us know in the comments!

Liv Tyler’s mother, rock legend Bebe Buell, is coming out hard against Dina Lohan for some reason in the new issue of Steppin’ Out ( via Radar ). Her main point? Dina sucks as a person and needs to start acting like a mom. “What her mother has done with Lindsay is morally wrong and disgusting. She should back off. Lindsay is the one with the talent. She’s the star,” Bebe said. “ Dina Lohan ‘s relationship with her daughter Lindsay Lohan disturbs me. I don’t see a mother and a daughter there. If my beautiful daughter was like that…” “I mean Lindsay and Liv were practically born on the same day. So I look at Lindsay and I see my own child in her because there’s a great talent there.” NOTE: Liv was born July 1, 1977. Lindsay was born July 2 … 1986. “But if my baby girl got that screwed up I would NOT allow to make her own decisions,” Bebe rants on. “I’m sorry! Anybody can think what they want.” “I would abduct my child and I would make sure that I didn’t leave her side until she didn’t have those problems anymore. But she also has to be responsible for her own actions. Her mother needs to start being a mother and not yes her to death.” Steven Tyler’s ex also has advice for Lindsay Lohan ‘s career. “If Lindsay spent a year with me I could turn her around. I could have her winning her first Oscar in two years,” she says, probably a bit overconfident. Lastly, she says Lindsay, who has been a mess lately (even if she’s not cutting herself ), needs to work on her appearance and put some weight on! “The first thing I would do is put 10 pounds on her. She’s looking too thin right now. That’s not a good look. The blonde hair doesn’t work. It ages her.” No arguments there Bebe. No arguments there.
In one of the not remotely staged clips airing this Monday on the E!’s Kim’s Fairytale Wedding special , Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries try to enjoy a casual meal as a couple in this for money love. But the paparazzi are abundant, making it seriously hard for Kim and Kris to spend quality time with their own cameraman and prompting the NBA power forward to propose a solution: “Maybe you should just move to Minnesota with me. We could move into my little house on the lake, we could just start popping out babies.” Of course, Kim doesn’t react well to this idea because she’d be leaving her family. No, not Khloe, Kourtney, Kendall and Kylie. The guys from OK! Weekly and In Touch who pay most of her bills… Kris Humphries to Kim Kardashian: Baby Time?

Welcome to THG’s Week in Review! Below, our staff takes a look back at the stories, stars and scandals that made these past seven days so memorable. If you don’t already, you can FOLLOW THG on Twitter and Facebook for 24/7/365 news. Day in and day out, let us be your entertainment news source! Now, a rundown of the week that was at The Hollywood Gossip : Steve Jobs passed away at the age of 56. In a word, he was awesome. Amanda Knox was freed after her murder conviction was overturned . ESPN fired Hank Williams Jr. for likening President Obama to Hitler. Speaking of ESPN, their magazine features Hope Solo nude . Johnny Depp likened photo shoots to rape . Rape, people. Ashton Kutcher and Sara Leal totally, probably boned. Casey Anthony Jail Video: Reaction to Caylee Death This never-before-seen Casey Anthony jail video was released. This little girl became an online sensation. Disturbing, but fun. Sarah Palin is not running for President. Nor is Chris Christie. Herman Cain is running … his mouth. And for U.S. President. Speaking of running one’s mouth … watch this Diddy rant . Rachel Uchitel and Matt Hahn apparently tied the knot. There is apparently a Tupac sex tape out there. Nancy Grace Farts on Dancing With the Stars Man, Nancy Grace really needs to pull it together. See clip above. She’s still on the show, though. Kristin Cavallari cannot say that. Jacqueline Laurita apparently does not like Teresa Giudice. Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed finally got married! Is Jennifer Aniston pregnant ? It looks like … no way. Thomas Jane was actually a male prostitute . The X Factor Top 32 have been unveiled! Behind the Scenes with Kristen Stewart Kristin Stewart finally confirmed she is dating Robert Pattinson ! In more surprising news: Emily Maynard and Jeremy Shockey ? Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are reportedly a thing. Ditto Leonardo DiCaprio and Alyce Crawford . And Penn Badgley and Zoe Kravitz as well. Revee Carney and Ashley Greene too.
It was almost a foregone conclusion, but former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has announced, officially, that she will not enter the 2012 presidential race. Palin’s announcement comes one day after New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie affirmed his decision not to jump in despite Republican leaders urging him to. No leaders really wanted Palin to, but she’s like a celebrity now, so the media still pays attention to her. Here’s what she told supporters in a letter: “I believe I can be more effective in a decisive role to help elect other true public servants to office – from the nation’s governors to congressional seats and the presidency.” “I will continue driving the discussion for freedom and free markets, including in the race for president where candidates must embrace immediate action toward energy independence through domestic development of conventional energy sources, along with renewables.” “We must reduce tax burdens and onerous regulations that kill American industry, and our candidates must always push to minimize government to strengthen and allow the private sector to create jobs.” “I apologize to those who are disappointed in this decision.” Anyone? Hello? Palin told Fox News she chose to send a letter over holding a press conference because she wanted to “put the marker down and say ‘no I’m not running.'” Republicans have been searching for an alternative to the polished, but less than inspiring former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney for the entire year. Many have been disappointed by Texas Gov. Rick Perry and have given a second look to Georgia businessman Herman Cain , who is surging in polls. In any case, the field is set now. Romney and Perry remain likely frontrunners, but at this stage of the game you can’t rule out Cain or perhaps others. Should Sarah Palin have run?
One day, THG might report that Justin Theroux got Jennifer Aniston pregnant and it might actually be true. Or, we may be resigned to mocking take tabloid reports forever. Either way, she is definitely not with child now, or yearning to be. “There’s no desperation,” Aniston tells the newest issue of Elle . “If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be. I’m at peace with whatever the plan is. But will you hate me if I say I don’t want to talk about my relationship?” While the actress remains mum about Justin Theroux and whether the two are getting married, she did reveal a hot-tempered run-in she had on set. “I threw a chair at a director,” the 42-year-old admitted. “It wasn’t my proudest moment. He was treating a script supervisor horribly … When the director walked in, I threw a chair at him. I missed, of course.” “I was like, ‘You can’t speak to people like that.’ I can’t tolerate it.” Wow. We wouldn’t want to see her go ballistic on Brad Pitt .
