- Scott Weiland pleads innocence in his DUI case, arguing that he wasn’t driving under the influence, he was just driving while Weiland.
- The Associated Press wonders whether America “is ready for a gay American Idol“. As someone who’s sick of all the butch Clay Aiken macho-music that’s been dominating the Idol airwaves these past few years, I would say YES, we’re ready.
- Page Six is pretty pissed off about not getting to break the “Patrick Swayze is dying of cancer” story first. Better luck next time a beloved celeb is suffering from a tragic illness, guys!
- UsWeekly rigidly enforces their “no fatties” policy with an entire spread called “From Hunk To Chunk”. Next they’ll have Val Kilmer doing the truffle shuffle (which will be awesome).
- And finally, NBC has announced that it is picking Friday Night Lights up for a 3rd season. Not that BWE.tv or any other Viacom-owned properties would be interested in that.
