Alison Sweeney is moving on from fake television drama to real-life drama at home. The actress and Biggest Loser host announced during a taping of Ellen (which airs today) that she is leaving Days of Our Lives after 21 years as Samantha Brady. Sweeney emphasizes her love for Sami and Salem and the job and her fans… but told the host she hasn’t had more than a two-week vacation in decades and also has two adorable reasons to bid farewell at this time of her life. “My daughter just turned 5 and my son is 9, and I just want to be with them and enjoy my last year,” she said, adding that she’ll stick around for almost all of 2014. Sweeney isn’t sure what she’ll do next, but her second book is coming out soon and she’d love to direct. But she mainly just yearns to be at home with her husband and her kids for a bit. How would she like Sami to go out? “I mean, it would be awesome to have some kind of happy ending, but then I also think Sami probably deserves some sort of very twisted like Breaking Bad ending,” she joked. “Sami has certainly caused he fair share of drama over the last 21 years. It will be 22 and I don’t even know what happens next!”
Everyday when I check my emails, I’m hoping to see a money transfer of sorts from this fake water company 138 because over the last few months, I have given them so much free publicity. Sure they keep providing the website with awesome babes who have amazing badonkadonks like Amanda Cerny , but the Tuna needs to get paid for all my hard work. I’m not asking for much, and I’d even accept dates with one of their hot models. So whoever the CEO of this fictitious company is, let’s make a deal!
Over the last couple weeks, the Ohio State Marching Band has made headlines for a couple very impressive routines. First, there was this tribute to Michael Jackson . Then, the band soared across the field like Superman. But Tori Boggs, a sophomore at Ohio State, is here to shift the focus away from football for a moment and on to… jump rope?!? Yes, this nine-time world champion rope-skipping champion puts on a display in the following video that must be seen to be believed. She’s on a full scholarship to attend the school and while you may think that’s bonkers for the skill she practices… … just watch how amazing she is at it: Tori Boggs Jumps Rope: Amazing!
Over the last few weeks Julianne Hough tried to change up her outfits and ditch the leggings. However, none of her choices seemed to work. I guess when you were born to wear a specific article of clothing you stick with it. Here she is leaving the gym after a workout wearing a pair of leggings which showcase her awesome little booty. All I know I’d love to sink my teeth into that cheek. Delicious!
Toni Christina Jenkins, a young Red Lobster waitress was the target of a racial slur left by a customer on a receipt, which she reported to management. In the space for gratuity, the customer wrote “None, n**ger.” Red Lobster Waitress Receives Racist Note on Receipt Christina showed the note to her boss, she says, and was assured she had done nothing wrong. But things changed when she posted it on Facebook. The Franklin, Tenn., teen was only hoping for “some prayers and support,” her mom says, when she posted the hateful note on her Facebook page. It went viral and sparked a great deal of outrage controversy, discussion, hoax theories and more racist comments. There were even reports she had been fired. Toni graduated from high school a year early, her mother says, and is waiting tables to help put herself through medical school at Belmont University. Monday, mom Tina Jenkins-Wilson told Radar that Red Lobster “let her go. They told her she could not return to work and that they were [investigating].” “They didn’t tell her they were going to pay her. They didn’t say if they were going to punish the people that did it. They just said they were going to let her off.” “It’s heartbreaking. She’s a nursing student who is trying to save up money so she can get back and forth to school. Waitressing is how she makes her money.” UPDATE : The restaurant strongly refutes this. A spokesperson for the restaurant tells THG: “Christina Jenkins has NOT been fired. In fact, she has not lost any days of work so far and is still scheduled to work this week as usual.” “We are extremely disturbed by this situation and are currently investigating to determine exactly what happened. We take this extremely seriously.” “This kind of language is completely disgusting and has no place in our restaurant or anywhere else and we are committed to getting to the bottom of what happened as quickly as possible.” That’s very good to hear. In any event, it’s unclear why the mom would be so confused or why the customer(s) left a note like that for the server. Story developing …

Desiree Hartsock, The Bachelorette star who just got engaged to Chris Siegfried on ABC, is starting a new wedding advice blog. Of course she is. Her website will focus on wedding planning and wisdom. Des, of course, is a purported expert in all things weddings, due to her bridal stylist trade. While we can – and will! – analyze the relationship of Desiree Hartsock and Chris Siegfried until we’re blue in the face, the simple fact here remains: She is not married and may well break off her engagement. This is based on the show’s track record and notwithstanding the fact that she obviously settled for her second choice , which some say doesn’t bode well. Would you read a wedding advice blog from somehow who hasn’t taken part in a wedding as of yet? Or is that unrelated to the task of planning one? You tell us, THGers. You. Tell. Us.

Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens will see your most recent sexy Instagram photo and raise you a cleavage and midriff-baring pictorial in Marie Claire . The former High School Musical star doesn’t go full-on Miley Cyrus in the October issue of the magazine, but she does show fans a far more mature side than the one to which they may be accustomed. “I am so comfortable with myself,- honing in on what I love and what makes me powerful,” Hudgens says. “Things I’ve been doing lately, I’m super proud of. So I don’t really care if someone doesn’t like it, because I love it.” The 24-year old Spring Breakers star has a clear vision of her future (she hopes for “a vintage Mustang, kids and an Oscar”), but also remembers her past. “My parents drove me up to L.A., which cost a lot because of gas, and took out loans so that we could move from location to location to be close to L.A.,” she says. “The family definitely struggled. They were very supportive of me. They gave up a lot so that I could get to where I am.” Of course, her path to this contented place has not been an easy one. There was that infamous Vanessa Hudgens nude photo scandal in 2007, which the star appears to reference when saying: “I am human like everyone else. I am aware that there are people who look up to me. When mistakes are made, they aren’t intentional, and I constantly push myself to be a better person.” And how is it all going for Hudgens? Very well, thanks for asking! “You have a choice whether you want to be happy or not. choose to be happy. And it’s been working out pretty well.”
