Ashley Benson and James Franco have a secret, and they just can’t keep it. According to New York Post sources, the Pretty Little Liars star and the do-everything actor are totally a new item. Benson and Franco – who both appeared in the film Spring Breakers – were spotted on multiple occasions over the past few weeks, first at Washington Square Park and then holding hands at the Los Angeles Haunted Hayride. “They have been seeing each other for a little over a month, but things are going well,” an insider tells the newspaper . Reps both have remained silent regarding the rumor. Franco, meanwhile, was actually linked to Kristen Stewart at the Toronto International Film Festival. But those reports were never confirmed.

At last check, despite reports of their demise, George Clooney and Stacy Keibler were still together. But now…? Sources tell The New York Daily News that Clooney and Keibler are ” barely talking ” at the moment and “she is worried that he may break up with her any day now.” If that takes place, at least the former WWE Diva can take comfort in the fact that she won’t be the first beauty dumped by Clooney. Or the 31st, for that matter. Keibler attended New York City Fashion Week last month on her own and sources tell the newspaper they are spending less and less time together. “George is being really distant and pulling away from her,” alleges this mole. “She wakes up every morning and doesn’t know what’s going to happen.” But at least she has a steady gig to fall back on: Keibler is the new host of Supermarket Superstars .
When the nails started falling out of her bedroom ceiling one night, Tracy, a Rock Hill, N.C., mother of five, thought it might be an animal up in the attic. She thought wrong.

According to the Charlotte Observer, the man had been living in the attic by the heating unit for about two weeks, having just been released from jail.

She may have recently been spotted without a wedding ring , but Liberty Ross is reportedly willing to give her marriage another chance. Provided Rupert Sanders follows a new set of rules, that is. The estranged couple met up at their Hollywood Hills home on Friday and, according to Great Britain’s The People , discussed a ” five point plan ” to save their relationship. It includes a re-worked pre-nuptial agreement to provide Ross with better terms in case things don’t work out. Liberty “would need Rupert to follow and sign” the documented guidelines “in order for her to consider dropping” her divorce request, a source tells the newspaper. Would the cheating director be up for such a thing? “Rupert’s desperate to patch things up so I’m sure he’d do anything,” says the insider, adding that “no more depositions in the case are being taken while lawyers on both sides wait to see if [he] can meet the criteria.” What else is included? It’s unclear. But earlier reports stated Ross was understandably adamant: Sanders it never to work with Kristen Stewart again .
Lolo Jones may be without an Olympic medal, but she is not without controversy or headlines. The sprinter – who lost out on Gold in the 100-meter hurdles when she hit an obstacle on the home stretch and who then finished in fourth place by a tenth of a second yesterday – was the subject of a feature in The New York Times Sunday. And it was far from flattering. The article claimed that Jones “has decided she will be whatever anyone wants her to be – vixen, virgin, victim – to draw attention to herself and the many products she endorses,” referencing the fact that Jones has played up her virginity and her looks over the past few weeks. Appearing on The Today Show this morning, the athlete fought back tears and labeled the piece of journalism a “crazy misogynist hit piece.” “They should be supporting our U.S. Olympic athletes,” Jones told Savannah Guthrie of the newspaper. “Instead they just ripped me to shreds. I just thought that it was crazy because I worked six days a week, every day for four years for a 12-second race.” The Times also compared Jones to Anna Kournikova, a retired tennis player who got a lot of attention for her looks… yet never actually won a single tournament. Faced with that charge, Lolo points to her resume. “I have the American record. I’m the American record-holder indoors. Just because I don’t boast about these things, I don’t think I should be ripped apart by media. I laid it out there, fought hard for my country and it’s just a shame that I have to deal with so much backlash when I’m already so brokenhearted as it is.”
‘We bit off more than we could chew,’ Van Halen guitarist tells USA Today. By Kara Warner Eddie Van Halen Photo: Frazer Harrison/ Getty Images So what’s the real story behind those canceled Van Halen concerts? Fans have been speculating about the band’s cryptic announcement about the postponed dates last month , and thanks to Eddie Van Halen’s recent interview with USA Today, we have an answer. “We bit off more than we could chew,” Eddie Van Halen told the newspaper frankly. “This record took a lot out of us. And we went on tour earlier than we wanted to so we could play Madison Square Garden [in March, before the venue’s scheduled renovation], and that threw the schedule out of whack.” Van Halen said a lot of the canceled dates on their A Different Kind of Truth Tour were in cities they’d already played. “So in November, we’ll hit Japan, and in the New Year, we’ll possibly do something special,” he teased. “But I can’t talk about it.” Something he could talk about were rumors that the band had to cancel their concert dates because their members, particularly fiery frontman David Lee Roth, were fighting again, which Van Halen straight-up denied. “Dave’s the same as he’s always been, funny, witty,” Van Halen said of Roth. “Sometimes I can only take that in small doses, because he just goes on and on,” he added with a laugh. “But Dave always lands on his feet.” The reunion tour with Roth and Van Halen’s 21-year-old son Wolfgang kicked off February 18 and will play a total of 40 shows on this leg.
