Ever since news broke that Jacqueline Laurita will return to The Real Housewives of New Jersey , reaction from fans and current cast members has been decidedly mixed. With Teresa Giudice headed to prison for 15 months , producers were left with few options with regard to women who are available and might be able to bring a tenth of the drama that Queen T brought to the table. Laurita seemed a safe – if not perfect – choice, but now it seems that adding her to the cast may have left execs with another vacancy to fill. Sources say Dina Manzo was furious to learn Laurita will be returning to the show, and now it looks like her anger may have prompted her to quit the series. Asked by a fan on Twitter if she had any interest in returning to the show next season, Dina promptly tweeted back, “NONE my soul can’t bear to be around terrible people.” Given the reports about Dina’s outrage over Jacqueline’s return, it’s safe to assume that Laurita is one of the “terrible people” she’s referring to. Of course, it’s possible Dina was fired and is now trying to save face, but either way, it looks as though yet another Manzo won’t be returning to the Housewives franchise.

Jon Gosselin’s former landlord is speaking out in the aftermath of his recent eviction, and suffice it to say, she does not paint a positive picture of the man. Linda Eways, who evicted Jon Gosselin from her house in Wernersville, Pa., says she paid a surprise visit to the property after she thought he’d moved out. And he had … for the most part. He certainly left his mark on the place. Not only did the father of eight leave the house trashed, strewn with garbage and debris with walls and doors damaged from Jon’s dog, he left something behind: A kitten. Yes, the landlord says she discovered a tiny cat abandoned there. Eways says she called Jon to ask about the kitten and he admitted as much. Well, specifically, he said his ex-girlfriend Liz Jannetta (the one he appeared on Couples Therapy with, apparently without a lot of success) left it there. According to earlier reports, Jon’s ex moved out in September, so the kitty was there for at least a few weeks with just Jon if our calendar is correct. Eways says the sight of the poor kitten “broke [her] heart” so she decided to adopt it. In that sense, at least the animal has a loving home now. But wow, Jon. We know times are tough, and being married to Kate Gosselin must have caused him major psychological damage … but come ON. What would his kids think? What does anyone with a beating hard think? 13 Couples Who Fell Apart on Reality Television 1. Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian The marriage between Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian lasted 72 days. Pretty much every second of it took place on reality TV. Star reached out to Jon, who claims what the landlord says “isn’t completely true,” but wouldn’t elaborate. So that totally makes us view him more favorably. Meanwhile, speaking of Kate, she’s having a yard sale soon and says that a portion of the proceeds will be donated to her local animal rescue league. We can’t believe we’re saying this, but #TeamKate. Too bad the animal rescue group find a way to relocate Jon from himself. Clearly he needs it. Also he needs a home BTW. Being broke and getting evicted and all.
Kenya’s still P’Oed at Tamar… Kenya Moore Blasts Tamar Braxton Kenya Moore recently talked about the upcoming season of “Real Housewives Of Atlanta” and dished on her beef with Tamar Braxton. As previously reported things got nasty between the two when Tamar called Kenya “thirsty ” and Kenya clapped back by calling her edgeless . Via Enstarz: On Tamar Braxton: It’s so interesting because this is not the first time I’ve heard that and I was on her show, “The Real” last week, and we were all very pleasant to one another and I think that was the only time I’ve met her in person and there was a very pleasant exchange. So, to see her say that on Bravo, which is my family and that’s my home… So you’re going to come into my house and disrespect me? I couldn’t just stay quiet about that. If it was someone else, I would just ignore it like I always do. But you don’t get to come into my house and disrespect me. I was disappointed by her but I will always be nice to her. And I will continue to be nice to her because that’s just who I am. But sometimes, when people see you shining–again, she was in my house so maybe she felt some type of way about that. She also talked about being labeled a “mean girl” and being never wanting someone’s “man, husband or boyfriend”; like Apollo Nida. On being labeled a “mean girl” and a “man stealer.” I’d see sometimes, early on, that I was being called a “mean girl.” I think it’s very clear that I don’t start trouble, trouble tries to find me and I sort of end arguments. I don’t start them. I think that the viewers have clearly seen that from season one to two. The other thing is about this whole going after someone’s man or things like that… I’ve never been interested in anyone’s man, husband, boyfriend and I’m actually that girl you want to have around if you have a boyfriend or a man or a husband, because I’m so not interested. I am the one, that if they come to me I send them back home basically saying, “You know you have no chance over here.” I’m a real girl’s girl. I love to support other women. I love beautiful women. I love confident women. Throughout my years of being a personality, I think that speaks for itself about me in terms of relationships with my boyfriends who have all been very quiet about me. I’ve never had a reputation in that regard. And as far as her catch fade partner Porsha Williams …. On laughing with (her “enemy”) Porsha Williams in a clip for the show Well, I was laughing with Nene in that clip. You know, when people make fun of me for silly stuff, I always have fun with it and make fun of myself… I’m cordial with all of the women and some of them are really my friends on and off-camera. I think you’ll be able to see who those people are when you watch the show as well. On Porsha’s demotion and starting a “new corner” Um, honestly I don’t have any thoughts about it. Well, it’s not necessarily a new corner. It’s just that I’ve made people relevant on this show for negative occurrences and I’m just not doing that any more. I think people need to stand on their own two feet and not ride my coattails, and you see when they don’t ride my coattails, they don’t get very far. Oh Kenya….what do YOU think about her chitchatter about the upcoming season????
Beyonce And Jay Z Renew Their Wedding Vows Superstar power couple Jay Z and Beyonce seem to have a way of silently responding to rumors surrounding their relationship and they reportedly did just that by recently renewing their wedding vows via People Magazine What breakup rumors?

The properties they’ve toured so far have been nothing short of extravagant, including a villa near the Seine, a home in a gated community referred to as “Millionaire’s Row,” and a townhouse next to the Elysee Palace. The Carters celebrated 6 years of marriage back in April and from the looks of things, they seem to be aiming for 6+ more. Can’t be mad at that, riiiigght? Screenshot (HBO)
I wrote about Maitland Ward yesterday , if you consider what I do actually writing… I mean I see letters but they don’t actually mean anything…sure they are words but ultimately just nonsenese…but what I was getting at is that this Maitland is busty, she’s never really made it in Hollywood, her claim to fame was Boy Meets World a long time ago, and now she’s on some promo tour, getting invited to obscure event where the paparazzi is, and getting naked – in revealing dresses…shameless attention seeking… I don’t know if she’s trying to promote anything, maybe filming a documentary, or just bored and looking for something of substance… I just know that she’s doing this everyday, she’s on some kind of half naked mission and I would be crazy to try to stop her – because it is funny, sad, and touches me on so many levels – I wish every girl was this eager to get noticed and on the blogs…but then I guess Maitland would be nothing special…and clearly she’s pretty fucking special… TO SEE THE REST OF THE PICS CLICK HERE
Jojo Levesque was someone considered Jail bait at 17, because she had a music video in an era when people still jerked off to music videos, and watched them on TV. I never understood her appeal, because she was alway thick, a lot like a little boy, and really not very memorable…and I guess the rest of the world realized that when she turned 18 and the fact that she was illegal to lust after was out of the masturbation fantasies, people came to their senses….she fell off the map – spent all her money on her black boyfriend who you know violated…got fat…and now is on her comeback tour because she’s got mouths to feed and I guess she figures if she did it once she can do it again..and I’m just posting it because you can see her bra…not like that means anything, every girl who leaves her house who still bothers with bras pretty much show them off…but I am hoping at least one of you weirdos is still in love with her, still has the posters up in your creepy masturbation lair…and this helps you go on with your pathetic life. I am a hero like that.

As anyone who’s listened to Taylor Swift’s “Welcome to New York” knows, the former breakup balladeer is rocking a more upbeat, poppy sound these days, but that doesn’t mean all is bright and sunny in Swifty Land. Taylor sat down for an interview with Esquire recently and she unexpectedly opened up about the dark (and occasionally scary) side of having millions of adoring fans. “I fought the idea of having security for a very long time, because I really value normalcy,” Swift says. “I like being able to take a drive by myself. Haven’t done that in six years.” “They have to be in a car behind me. Because just the sheer number of men we have in a file who have showed at my house, showed up at my mom’s house, threatened to either kill me, kidnap me, or marry me.” Needless to say, there’s a terrifying side to being one of the world’s most popular artists. Too bad she can’t just give these creeps the old, ” No, it’s Becky ,” excuse and be on her way. “This is the strange, sad part of my life that I try not to think about,” Taylor added. “I try to be lighthearted about it, because I don’t want to be scared.” Suddenly we have a new appreciation for why Taylor named her cat Olivia Benson . Who could be afraid when you have NYC’s most badass crimefighter purring at your feet? Taylor Swift and Cats: A Perfect Pairing 1. Taylor Swift and Olivia Benson Taylor and the newest addition to her cat family. Olivia is named for Mariska Hargitay’s character on Law & Order: SVU.
Sam Lutfi, Amanda Bynes’ friend and Britney Spears’ former “manager,” is defending his “work” with the stars in a bizarre open letter that has Spears’ camp on high alert. Lutfi writes on XOJane (dot) com that so many of the things written about his relationships with troubled celebrities like those two are mere misconceptions. “I’ve worked in Hollywood for a long time,” says Lutfi, who was instrumental in getting Amanda Bynes placed under a 5150 hold earlier this month. “I am a problem solver, and I care about helping people get out of what may seem like some of their more difficult places in life,” writes the mysterious character. “Over the years these experiences have led me to see what happens when too much fame and too much money can sometimes get the best of celebrities.” This, Sam Lutfi says, is “why you have seen me associated with some of the more famous celebrities when they are in their most trying hours.” Britney Spears, Amanda Bynes and Courtney Love are among those he name-checks, and Britney’s team is none too pleased about that reference. Calling Sam’s letter “disgusting and appalling” an insider said he’s “obsessed with Britney, and is one of the main reasons why Britney has a bodyguard around the clock!” “Britney’s dad, Jamie, won’t take chances when it comes to Sam; Jamie believes that given the opportunity, Sam would try to worm his way back into Britney’s life again.” “Her life was in shambles when Sam was with her. Inviting photographers into her house so they could get to know Britney as a person … who does that?” “Someone who wants to be a celebrity.” 53 Hottest Britney Spears Photos of ALL TIME 1. Britney Spears Bikini Wallpaper Most people can only fantasize about Britney Spears with wallpaper like this. David Lucado could wallpaper himself with Britney’s body and he let it slip away. In recent weeks, Lutfi had insinuated himself into Amanda Bynes’ inner circle, six and a half years after Spears’ camp cut him off and most people forgot about him. “All I can tell you is that Amanda is getting the help that she needs and that I am working closely with her and her family,” he says of his latest project. He wants to “move on from the tabloid sensationalism of her ‘breakdown’ and concentrate on what a rare, talented young woman she has always been and continues to be.” Bynes, though, has grown increasingly wary of his motives as well . To hear Spears’ camp tell it, they are smart to keep him at arms length and then some: “If Sam did indeed have nothing but the best intentions, why does he need go public with it? Just look at the creepy pictures Sam posted in the XOJane story with celebrities.” “It seems like he’s trying to prove he’s an A-lister. What is his job exactly? Sam says he has worked in Hollywood for years, but in what capacity?” “During Sam’s libel and defamation lawsuit against the Spears family, he admits he has had no professional work in Hollywood that paid him more than $10,000.” The mystery deepens. But we’d sure as heck stay away from this dude if we were you, or any celebrity going through a tough time, or a great time. Just steer clear is the point. 45 Seriously OMG WTF Amanda Bynes Photos 1. Amanda Bynes is Dope Amanda Bynes thinks she is dope. The actress has posted this photo to Twitter.
