Steve Harvey Responds to Ex-Wife’s Claims

Steve Harvey is no longer letting his lawyer do his talking . A few days after the comedian’s first wife, Mary Harvey, unleashed a verbal, videotaped assault against him, the best-selling author has spoken out against the allegations that he cheated on her and turned the couple’s son against her. “I know the truth,” Harvey said. “My son is coming into the room crying. And that’s what hurts me, why you would do this. And I don’t even understand the purpose. I mean, I got you’re mad, but [she’s talking about] 12 years ago. That’s what we’re doin’ now?” Steve and Mary got married 1996 and divorced nine years later. Son Broderick was born in 1997 and Steve has since remarried. “The truth’s gonna come out,” Harvey said. “Because once you go public, you allow people to start asking questions… I’m just more concerned about my son, who I have total custody of. He doesn’t deserve the questions.” Harvey concluded by referring to Mary’s rant as being full of “lies,” but said he won’t reciprocate by going into similar detail in public. The reason? That’s still his child’s mother. “And I’m his father,” the actor said. “And it’s my job to raise him right.”

Chris Brown Completes Domestic Violence Course, Tweets Diploma and Inspiring Message

Critics will nitpick everything he does, but Chris Brown has been nothing but a model citizen since his February 2009 arrest for assault on Rihanna . That said, this Twitter pic of the certificate he got for completing a court-mandated 52-week domestic violence course is sure to elicit reactions. The only question in our mind: Frame it or put it on the fridge? Chris Brown remains on probation until 2014. As if anticipating the obligatory “why post this when it’s a reminder of the crap you did to end up in the program to begin with” question, he writes: “i have enough self respect and decency to be proud of accomplishing this DV class.. Boyz run from there mistakes.. Men learn from them!!! thx” Even more inspirational than these Kenny Powers quotes . Simply moving. In all seriousness, good for him for moving on and putting his best foot forward. There will be skeptics, always, but his actions are doing the talking.

A Puking Tony Stark was Supposed to Open Iron Man 2

I already like the movie better. In this past summer’s pretty disappointing Iron Man 2 , the movie opens with Iron Man calmly walking out onto the platform of an open plane cargo door. Them without comment, he jumps out and pretty routinely flies down to the applause of adoring fans — followed by two hours of explosions.

Breaking: Jeff Zucker Steps Down at NBC

You won’t have Jeff Zucker to kick around anymore. According to the New York Times ‘ Bill Carter , Zucker sent an e-mail this morning to his employees informing them that he would set down as CEO of NBC Universal when the Comcast takeover of the company was complete. “Look, I knew from the day this was announced that this was a possibility,” Zucker told Carter. “I wasn’t going to shut the door on anything. But in the last nine months it became increasingly clear that [Comcast] did want to put their own team in place — and I didn’t want to end up being a guest in my own house.” Developing… [ NYT /Media Decoder ]

Watch the Entire Justin Bieber CSI Saga in Two Minutes

For weeks, the anticipation has been quite high for Justin Bieber’s primetime network acting debut on CSI . And I’m sure every parent was absolutely thrilled to let their ten-year-old daughter stay up late to watch a graphic crime drama featuring digitally enhanced guided camera tours of rotting corpses (“no, Sally, that will never be you. I promise”). Well, parents — and the otherwise strangely curious (like me) — are in luck. TV Squad condensed the entire episode into two, Bieberific minutes. What did we learn about Bieber’s acting skills? Not a whole lot since the other actors on-screen did most of the talking, but this George Eads fellow is terrific!
