A day after getting arrested on new sex abuse charges , former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky has been released on bail. Sources tell TMZ that Sandusky’s wife wrote a $50,000 personal check to help make the $250,000 bond, with the rest coming out of Sandusky’s real estate holdings. The disgraced ex-coach – who is now accused of forcing himself on a young boy in his own basement, while the child screamed for help from Sandusky’s wife – must remain at home, a court has ruled, and has been barred from contact with anyone related to the case.
Karina Smirnoff and Brad Penny have called off their engagement. The Dancing With the Stars pro, 30, and the Major League Baseball pitcher, 33, have gone their separate ways after more than two years together, E! confirms . “They’re just different people,” a source says of the pair, who began dating in October ’09 after they first met through former DWTS contestant Chuck Lidell. There have been signs of potential problems for months now. Smirnoff said she decided to postpone her January 2012 wedding to focus on DWTS, even as she praised Brad as a man who supports and loves her unconditionally. Yet during her emotional run to Karina’s first Dancing With the Stars title with partner J.R. Martinez , she never referred to Penny nor was he spotted in the audience. Karina was also engaged to co-star Maksim Chmerkovskiy before meeting Penny. No reason was given for this split, but we wish them the best in this difficult time.

For its annual Sportsman of the Year honor, Sports Illustrated simply could not choose between a pair of iconic coaches. Therefore, both Pat Summitt and Mike Krzyzewski have been recognized by the magazine, with the University of Tennessee Women’s Basketball Coach and the Duke University Men’s Basketball Coach covering the latest issue of the publication: Last month, Coach K set the all-time Division I mark for coaching victories, less than two years after leading Duke to yet another national title. Summitt, meanwhile, put her stamp on 2011 in a more personal way: in August, she announced that she’d continue her legendary coaching career despite a diagnosis of early-onset dementia. Krzyzewski and Summitt join John Wooden and Dean Smith as the only coaches to receive this award from Sports Illustrated . They’ll be honored with a banquet in New York City tomorrow night.
Venus Williams’ lil tatas were almost put on full blast this weekend: Venus Williams almost had a Janet Jackson moment during a good-natured exhibition match against Italian tennis player Flavia Pennetta in Milan. The left strap on one of Venus’ self-designed eleVen dresses snapped during the match, almost exposing some extra skin to the assembled crowd. Like a seasoned fashion veteran, the elder Williams sister managed to cover up the problem and coolly walked off the court to change outfits. When she returned, she brought some popcorn for Pennetta, who had been forced to wait out the literal changeover. Nice save Venus…but we’re sure one of you pervs would have hoped it popped all the way out. Source
Elijah Wood makes a creepy office visit and Matt Damon overshares in a strange year full of (awkward) celebrity highlights for the MTV Movies team. By Josh Horowitz Ryan Gosling Photo: MTV News It’s been quite a year for the “After Hours” team at MTV News. After dipping our toes in the waters of the awkward and controversial celebrity interview last year, 2011 represented our first 12-month run of embarrassing situations — and what a year it was. James Franco kicked me in the balls. Don Cheadle kicked me in the balls. Paul Giamatti kicked me in the balls. And that was just January. Thirty-four “After Hours” segments — that’s a lot of mental and physical abuse. As we look back, here are four lessons learned in the past year. Great Things Can Fall Through the Cracks One of my personal favorite “After Hours” segments of ’11 occurred early on. We called it “Fanline,” and it featured the cast of the otherwise forgotten Vince Vaughn comedy “The Dilemma.” Ostensibly, I read Vaughn and Kevin James letters from fans. Who actually wrote the letters, I’m not saying, because what’s important is I got to tell Vince how much “Fred Claus” sucked. He didn’t seem pleased. And not many of you saw this “AH” when it first appeared … much like “Fred Claus.” Yes or No?!? (Not) Such a Simple Question. Sometimes you don’t need to reinvent the wheel to find a new way to get celebrities to reveal something unexpected about themselves. We found “The Yes/No Show” was a simple and direct way to draw out some unique truths from the stars. Has Matt Damon seen Ben Affleck’s penis? Does Ryan Reynolds think Ryan Gosling’s abs are better than his? Just ask, my friends. What’s the worst that can happen? Ryan Gosling Can Do No Wrong Speaking of Ryan Gosling, “After Hours” scored one of its most popular segments simply by exposing the man who flaunted his abs in “Crazy, Stupid, Love.” to the infamous “Hey Girl” meme . Who didn’t giggle along with Ryan as he turned bright red? And if that wasn’t enough Gosling for you, we put him to the (Canadian) test later in the year in “American Talk.” People Like to Hurt Me If there was prevailing motif in “After Hours” this year, it would probably be the abuse of Josh Horowitz (karma, I suppose, for the absurdities I put our brightest stars through). Beyond the aforementioned ball-kicking, there was James McAvoy’s kicking giant medicine balls at my head — that REALLY hurt. And perhaps most disturbing, Elijah Wood’s office visit -turned-“Single White Female”-esque murder of … me. Don’t worry, I lived to embarrass myself and others another day. See you in 2012.

Singer will perform alongside Cirque du Soleil. By Gil Kaufman Madonna Photo: Getty Images The worst-kept secret in sports and music has finally been confirmed: Madonna will play the halftime show at Super Bowl XLVI on February 5. The gig has been rumored for months, but on Sunday night the NFL confirmed that Madonna will make her Super Bowl debut in an extravaganza that will be “imagined” by Cirque du Soleil and her longtime choreographer/creative director Jamie King. The game is scheduled for the first Sunday in February at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis and the half time booking continues a recent trend of inviting global superstars to rock the biggest TV event of the year. Madonna follows in the footsteps of last year’s entertainment, the Black Eyed Peas, as well as recent gigs by Bruce Springsteen, the Rolling Stones, The Who, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, U2, Paul McCartney and Prince. The gig will take place just two days before Madonna’s English romantic drama, “W.E.,” hits theaters . The singer is also slated to release her as-yet-untitled 12th studio album in 2012 and a first single could drop around the time of the Super Bowl. Singer M.I.A. recently confirmed that she and Nicki Minaj have collaborated with Madonna on a new song reportedly titled “Give Me All You Love,” which leaked last month. “Summond to NYC by bitchesses MADONNA and NICKIMINAJ,” M.I.A. tweeted over the Thanksgiving weekend. “cofffffiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee it iz a good day to get me tho trustttt bitches.” The leak may have pleased fans, but it left Madonna and her camp pretty unhappy. Shortly after the track hit the Web, Madonna’s manager, Guy Oseary Tweeted a response to the leak. “The plan was for new music to come out in the new year,” he said. “I’m very happy with the positive reaction to the demo, but we are very upset with whoever leaked the song!!!!!!!! we are asking that the fans please help us police any more leaks. we have a lot in store for you. but please respect the process.” Madonna, via Oseary, also expressed her feelings about the leak. “Madonna told me this morning ‘my true fans wouldn’t do this,’ ” he wrote. “Whoever is responsible for this leak, we ask that you please stop!” Related Artists Madonna
Olympic snowboarding god Shaun White may be in some serious hot water if photos taken of him laying (half) pipe at a hotel party in 2009 have made their way online. Dude is not clothed and not not having sex in them. Several party goers managed to snap photos of White ‘s naked romp with some girl, but his people managed to erase all the pics … or so they had thought. At least two of the pics have surfaced, though, one in which Shaun is making out with a hot blonde gal in front of other people, clothed, and another in which Shaun appears to be getting it in missionary style, grinning at the camera, totally nude. Oh, and the ginger carpet matches the drapes, apparently. The seller is looking for a serious payday, but so far has not found a buyer … which doesn’t really shock us to be honest. The Olympics were almost two years ago now, and when was the last time you thought about Shaun White? He’s awesome at snowboarding, but we’re just saying.
NFL star Rolando McClain was charged with four crimes Thursday following a dustup in his hometown, but it’s a photo of him being taken into custody that is truly noteworthy. Visiting his hometown of Decatur, Ala., the Oakland Raiders linebacker got popped after police say he held a gun to another man’s head then fired it beside his ear. Looks like somebody had a good laugh about it at least … Police said the victim suffered injuries to his head and face during a fight with another man (who was also arrested) and that he begged McClain not to shoot him. The former Alabama star obliged and fired it inches from his head instead. McClain was charged with third-degree assault, menacing, reckless endangerment, and discharging a firearm within city limits … while in town for his grandpa’s funeral. All things that make a man smile ear-to-ear apparently.
