Justin Timberlake Addresses Kanye West 'Feud'

Tue, 2013-03-12 11:15

After a successful stint hosting "Saturday Night Live" this past weekend, Justin Timberlake is making NBC his home for the next week. It's officially "Justin Timberlake Week" on "Late Night," with Timberlake on every night. For his first visit, he quickly addressed his so-called beef with Kanye West.

The two stars commented back and forth during live performances, starting with Kanye West slamming JT's collaboration with Jay-Z -- "Suit & Tie" -- during a concert last month.

TImberlake seemingly responded with a strategic lyric change during his "SNL" performance of the song. He changed the line "so sick got a hit and picked up a habit" to "my hit's so sick got rappers acting dramatic."

“I don't remember that," Timberlake said with a smile. "For the record, I absolutely love Kanye. So, there's that." So it's all in good fun -- at least from Timberlake's camp. West has yet to respond. As Vulture put it, "Your move, Kanye."

Justin Timberlake's new album, "The 20.20 Experience," drops next Tuesday, but fans can hear it streaming in its entirety now over at iTunes.

Catch Justin Timberlake all week on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" at 12:37 a.m. EST on NBC.

'Biggest Loser': Who Guaranteed Their Spot In The Finals?

Tue, 2013-03-12 10:45

It was the final week for the contestants on "The Biggest Loser" Ranch. The two-hour show found several different ways to look back at the progress the final five contestants have made over the past eleven weeks. They got to watch their video messages to themselves that they made on Day One, and they had the classic challenge where they had to carry the weight they'd lost again.

The trainers got to say goodbye to their original teams, leading to an emotional moment between Bob Harper and Jeff. 25-year-old Jeff lost his father at an early age and had kind of checked out of his life. He'd come to see Bob as a father figure -- the man who pushed him when he needed it. The admission touched Bob, who teared up and had a private heart-to-heart with Jeff.

"You've changed my life, 100 percent. And I can't thank you enough," Jeff said.

"I know that wherever your father is right now, that he is so proud of you," Bob said. The two embraced and Bob promised he would be there forever if Jeff needed him.

Buddy TV said this was the first time Bob has ever broken down like that on the show. SheKnows wasn't surprised, saying, "It's no secret that Bob Harper truly cares about changing peoples' lives."

In the end, the contestants faced a red line and a yellow line. Long the biggest loser in the house, Gina fell below the red line and saw her journey end. Only Jeff and Danni had great numbers on the scale, securing their spot in next week's finale. Meanwhile, Joe and Jackson are pleading for America's vote to get that third spot for the top prize.

Tune in next week for the season finale of "The Biggest Loser," next Monday at 8 p.m. EST on NBC.

'Pawn Stars': John F. Kennedy's Cigar Box, With Unsmoked Cigars

Tue, 2013-03-12 09:45

A piece of presidential history walked into the shop on "Pawn Stars." Rick was genuinely blown away at the sight of John F. Kennedy's cigar box that he'd used at the White House. The box even had some of Kennedy's unsmoked cigars still in it.

“To actually have a cigar box that sat on his desk in the Oval Office?" Rick said. "It's just one of those things I can only dream about."

The seller was seeking $95,000 for the box, but after some hard negotiating, he was willing to settle for Rick's offer of $60,000. Considering another of JFK's cigar boxes sold for more than $500,000 to the publisher of Cigar Aficionado back in the 1990s.

"This is one of those once in a lifetime items," Rick said. "If I let this thing walk out the door, I'm never going to see another one like it."

See what comes in next on "Pawn Stars," Mondays at 10 p.m. EST on History.

'Dallas': Moving Tribute To J.R. Propels Season's Mystery

Tue, 2013-03-12 09:15

A moving tribute to Larry Hagman and his most iconic role, J.R. Ewing, on the latest episode of "Dallas." After he was shot and killed mysteriously last week, the Ewings came together to lay to rest one of the most notorious villains in the history of television. There were tributes to J.R. throughout the episode, as well as several cameos from the original run of "Dallas."

Particularly moving were the tributes to J.R. from his brother Bobby and Sue Ellen. "You were the love of my life," she said.

Bobby was angry and frustrated by the betrayal he felt at the hands of his wife, Ann, as well as the shocking death of J.R. His eulogy was kept brief and exemplified that frustration. "I don't want it to be true, but it is. My brother is dead. And so now, I have to figure out just what I'm supposed to do," he said. The Hollywood Reporter called the episode a "heartfelt tribute."

After his death, the family received a series of packages and letters from J.R. They learned that he was searching for Christopher's mother, Pamela -- everyone believes she was dead -- played by Victoria Principal in the original series. Could she be on her way back to the show?

J.R. was also trying to take down Harris Ryland, and he had a mysterious letter for Bobby that may prove to be his biggest move yet. Patrick Duffy recently teased that the resolution for Season 2 even made his jaw drop.

The cast and producers talked at Paleyfest about the emotional funeral episode for J.R. Ewing, the loss of Larry Hagman as a friend and collaborator, and the future of the show in a post-J.R. world.

"Dallas" has to figure out how to move on without J.R. Ewing on Mondays at 9 p.m. EST on TNT.

Halle Berry Confirms Her Return To X-Men Franchise

Tue, 2013-03-12 08:45

Halle Berry confirmed that she would be returning to her iconic role as Storm in the newest film in the X-Men franchise. She was appearing on "The Tonight Show" where she said she agreed to do it because it's a great role and -- "those residual checks don't hurt," she added with a laugh.

"It's a character that I love and the fans really love the whole series," Berry said. "They really love Storm. It's like family. It's fun to get back together with Hugh and everybody. It's good fun."

"X-Men: Days of Future Past" is heading into production soon for a projected release date in the summer of 2014. And Berry won't be the only familiar face returning to the franchise. Expect to see the returns of Patrick Stewart, Ellen Page and Anna Paquin as well.

Catch new episodes of "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" every weeknight at 11:35 p.m. EST on NBC.

Lincee Ray: 7 Thoughts On 'The Bachelor' Season Finale

Tue, 2013-03-12 08:43

Spoiler alert: Do not read on if you have not seen the season finale of "The Bachelor."

It turns out that an elephant, a joyful, loving father, an adorable weepy mother and two children who surely have Pottery Barn Kids modeling deals in the works by now turned out to be more entertaining than the super secretive "letter of doom" we've been teased about for the past few weeks. All in all, I think this was a pretty good season that showcased surprising pockets of awesome tucked away in the nooks and crannies of its finale. Take a look!

A Family That Wears Neon Together, Stays Together
Sean is in Thailand, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the love(s) of his life and is counting on his family to give some insight on choosing the woman of his dreams. Should it be Catherine, who played on an all-boys baseball team? This is the girl who knew she loved Sean through a series of back-and-forth love note writing. Not only does Dad vow to be her biggest cheerleader if she's "the one" (tears!), he does so while rocking a fuchsia t-shirt. Or maybe the lucky girl is Lindsay? Even though her dress is a little short for meeting Mama Lowe for the first time in my opinion, sister Shay in her Day-Glo green shorty shorts thinks the wedding dress out of the limo schtick was hilarious. Her husband says nothing. I say he's hot. Well done Shay. Well done.

Careful! You Might Need a Tetanus Shot
For Sean's last date with Lindsay, he pays homage to our beloved Ames by wearing an aqua tank top, red shorts and a very large white plastic watch. Lindsay wears a layering tank as an actual tank and pink shorts from Build-A-Bear. A Thai man is instructed to row Sean and Lindsay up and down the Mekong, which closely resembles the chocolate river that swept up Augustus Gloop at the Wonka Factory. They arrive at a tree house where both suffer from what appears to be symptoms of sun stroke, drunkenness or early onset signs of staph infection from that unfortunate decision to take a dip in the Mekong. Later, Lindsay tells Sean she loves him and they free a bunch of paper lanterns into the sky with love language words written all over them.

Horton Hears a Who
Sean couldn't have set his date up with Catherine any better. She greets him in a field (they're wearing matching purple tops) and begins chattering on about how there are elephants walking around everywhere! Sean pretends he doesn't believe her just as one comes crashing through the brush. They both put on a pair of elephant pants, are hoisted up on the animal's back and traipse around Thailand taking in the general splendor of the scenery. Horton drops the love birds off at the same tree house and Sean does a great job marveling at the breathtaking view as if he had never seen it less than 24 hours ago. Catherine admits that she's falling for Sean and she can't wait for a future of planning engagement parties. Yes that was as random as it sounded. At dinner, she tries to tell him how she feels, but she's reluctant to share her true emotions. Finally, he pulls her in close and we hear a fake heartbeat in a non-existent microphone as she chokes out a muffled "I love you" in the general vicinity of his jugular. Sean thanks her for "the great day" and heads off to his car. Catherine has a meltdown in her bed.

I Shaved My Legs For This?
Lindsay chooses a shiny, reflective ensemble for her pending engagement dress. I'm pretty sure all of Thailand was able to pick up Ryan Secrest's radio show frequency due to the amount aluminum foil wrapped tightly around her body. PS: It's silver. The color of second place. I'm just saying. Harrison escorts her to the proposal pedestal and Sean hems and haws a decent "you're great, but" speech. Sean begins to cry, but Lindsay stays tough. The General has taught her well. She casually mentions that she's going to go now, reminds him that this is her worst nightmare, wishes him well and then takes her shoes off so she can properly stalk away. Everyone watching cheers her phenomenal attitude. For being at a KOT keg party only two years ago, she handles the disappointment really well and shows lots of maturity. Because of this, I was able to forgive her when I couldn't translate any of her crying baby talk voiceover in the rejection SUV. Good for you, Lindsay!

Catherine Takes the Gold
It turns out that Catherine was the culprit behind the letter that got more air time than Neil Lane this week. It's basically a love letter that is read in voiceover between Catherine and Sean as she makes her way in another version of Lindsay's tin foil dress (yet it was champion gold) to Sean's waiting arms. He tells her that he wants to spend the rest of his life with her and against Mama Lowe's wishes, Sean drops on one knee and presents the exact engagement ring that AshLee requested two episodes ago when she was sent home packing. Harsh. Catherine seems very emotional at the outpouring of love from Sean and even looks him in the eye once or twice. Horton is summoned once again and the two meander off on elephant back into the sunset.

Prime Time Nuptials
During "After the Final Rose," Harrison insists that some life-changing news has just been confirmed in the last 24 hours, from the Bachelor himself. After roughly 45 minutes of teasing, we learn that Sean and Catherine do not have a date set for the wedding, but they do know that they will be getting married on ABC. There has been no confirmation of florescent bow ties and cummerbunds for the wedding party. Stay tuned.

Desiree's Creek
The Joey Potter lookalike has officially been announced as next season's Bachelorette. I am starting an aggressive Twitter campaign to convince Mike Fleiss to find two suitable suitors named Dawson and Pacey.

What do you think of the finale? How long will it be before Catherine and Sean tie the knot? Will you tune in for Desiree's season in May? Sound off in the comments below!

'Switched At Birth': Occupy Carlton Ends, Boy Trouble For Girls

Tue, 2013-03-12 07:45

There were plenty of fireworks on the mid-season finale of "Switched at Birth." While the sit-in ended in the students getting dragged out of Carlton by the police, they did manage to keep their school open. Unfortunately, they had to concede some of their demands. Even worse, the school will be integrating even more hearing students into the school, and it won't even be requiring them to learn sign language to be there.

On the home front, things reached a head between Bay and Daphne as well. All of this over that kiss that meant so much more than it should have at the play between Daphne and Bay's boyfriend. Ultimately, he admitted to Bay that he had feelings for Daphne -- saying that the two shared a connection.

When Bay confronted Daphne, though, Daphne denied any feelings or action on her part. "I didn't try to steal your boyfriend! I wouldn't do that," she said. "Don't you ever get tired of seeing yourself as the victim all the time?"

"I didn't use to feel like that until you showed up," Bay said.

Elsewhere, Regina finally agreed to accept help for her drinking problem and headed into rehab. And Bay struggled with her own emotions when Angelo's baby was born, making her a big sister. It was difficult seeing him there for this daughter when he was never there for her -- or Daphne for that matter.

Fans won't have to wait long for the next chapter of "Switched at Birth." Season 2 will continued on June 10.

'The Following': One Of Carroll's Followers Sacrifices Himself To Carroll

Tue, 2013-03-12 07:15

The depths of the devotion Joe Carroll's followers have was shown this week on "The Following" when they failed yet again to bring his wife, Claire, to him. She'd been put into witness relocation, and only one agent knew where she was. Fortunately for the followers, he was the one they managed to kidnap, but he denied knowing anything. He looked ready to die to keep the secret, but Ryan's timely arrival helped him avoid that.

Ryan not only saved the agent, but he took out five of Joe's followers. The survivors made their way back to the small town Joe is holed up in, where one of them offered himself up in ritual sacrifice.

"This is my gift. My apology," he told Joe. He kept saying that he wanted his life to mean something, so apparently dying for failing to secure Claire would do that. At least in his mind, it would. And Joe granted his wish, embracing him and stabbing him in the gut.

"You will always matter" were Joe's final words to him.

Critics certainly reacted to the tense scene. TVLine described it as "highly erotic," and more than a bit bizarre. BuddyTV felt it was "the most heartbreaking, disturbing, yet beautiful scene of the series."

Things will surely get even more fanatical as "The Following" continues on Mondays at 9 p.m. EST on Fox.

Rebecca Shapiro: 'The Carrie Diaries': Walt Makes A Bold Move

Tue, 2013-03-12 06:22

Note: Do not read on if you have not yet seen Season 1, Episode 9 of The CW's "The Carrie Diaries," titled "The Great Unknown."

We returned to a sullen Carrie Bradshaw moping around Castlebury, Conn., in tonight's episode of "The Carrie Diaries." After Carrie's dad caught her partying at Limelight and lying about her internship, he banned her from Manhattan and Interview magazine.

The silver lining? Carrie had more time to bask in the newfound attention she received from Sebastian. The former bad boy broke up with queen bee Donna in last week's episode, making him free to pursue his feelings for Carrie. Then there was a scene that lasted for about 10 hours about a Rubik's cube (sigh).

Carrie's feelings for Sebastian were so overwhelming that she sobbed to Mouse that she was "scared" and "really likes him." I think the scene of Carrie crying on her bed was meant to be funny and endearing -- I'm thinking the way Sally Albright sobbed to Harry Burns that she was going to be 40 ... "someday!" But the scene was just sort of awkward.

However, she did articulate some core Carrie Bradshaw insecurities. She worried that Sebastian was only attracted to parts of her and her tendency to overanalyze their every interaction was making her miserable. These thoughts not only plagued Carrie in her teenage years, but "Sex and the City" fans are well aware of how Carrie struggled with feeling confident in her relationship with Big as an adult too.

After Walt found out that Maggie cheated on him with the local police officer (still can't get over the strangeness of that storyline), he started dating Donna. Donna and Walt's dynamic was very Cher Horowitz and Christian Stovitz -- where she tried to seduce the man who would eventually become her gay best friend.

After a few failed attempts to get Walt into bed, she confronted him about his lack of desire to sleep with her. Surprisingly, Walt stepped one foot out of the closet. "I don't know what I am," he told Donna after she revealed that her older brother is gay. Donna promised to keep his secret, and for some reason, I trusted her, too.

Meanwhile, Carrie's dad Tom took up racquetball with his misogynist friend Harlan. As he stretched following a game, a Samantha Jones-like aerobics instructor led him to a room upstairs so she could go down on him. I find it somewhat peculiar that show creators decided that Tom's first semi-sex scene after losing his wife would be with an aerobics teacher going down on him in a massage room. I could handle seeing him flirt with women on dates, but this seemed like quite the leap.

Carrie was left to look after Dorrit while Tom and Harlan entered an all-day tournament. Sebastian stopped by to hang out, but while they were making out in the living room, Dorrit ran away -- again. As an obsessed Sex Pistols fan who was writing a report on Sid Vicious for school, Sebastian figured out that Dorrit must have gone to the hotel to see where Sid allegedly murdered his girlfriend and manager, Nancy Spungen. Sebastian and Carrie went after her and eventually brought her home.

Tom and Harlan's tournament was interrupted when Larissa showed up. Harlan and Larissa had been seeing each other since Tom busted Carrie at Limelight. Larissa and Tom sat down at the gym to discuss the kerfuffle that was last week's episode.

The encounter seemed extremely far-fetched, but if I let myself believe that Tom and Larissa were conversing on a couch in a Connecticut gym that had couches, side tables and a beautiful Persian carpet next the the racquetball courts, I could appreciate Larissa bluntly telling Carrie's father that he's totally clueless if he thinks his daughter will become a lawyer.

"It's not a matter of right and wrong, it's a matter of who she wants to be," Larissa said. "If you don't let Carrie explore the world and figure out what she wants to be she'll never become the person she's supposed to be -- someone who's happy and loves who she is."

Cheesy? Definitely. Cute? Somewhat. Tom was so moved by Larissa's speech that he reconsidered and put Carrie back in the city.

"The Carrie Diaries" airs Monday nights at 8:00 p.m. on the CW.

Rachel Zoe Talks About How Dirty Styling Can Get

Tue, 2013-03-12 05:45

As the star of a television show, Chelsea Handler knows a thing or two about stylists. After all, she's been styled by them on "Chelsea Lately" since the beginning. Celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe joined her on the show to talk about the largely unknown trials and tribulations those in her profession go through.

Many people think it's a rather glamorous job, but Handler revealed that both of her former stylists claimed to have been urinated on by clients in the past.

"Listen, this is not the most glamorous job all the time. In fact, most of the time it's not that glamorous," Zoe said. "I can't even talk about things that I've experienced in my very long career as a stylist."

She did admit that she'd never been urinated on, but one can only imagine the gross and uncomfortable sitautions she has found herself in. In fact, one would have to since she said "she can't even talk about" any of those things.

Maybe some of those less-than-glamorous moments will make it onto her show, "The Rachel Zoe Project," which just kicked off Season 5. It airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. EST on Bravo. "Chelsea Lately" airs weeknights at 11 p.m. EST on E!

Brandi Glanville Ends Feud With LeAnn Rimes, Kicks Off Another

Tue, 2013-03-12 05:15

If Brandi Glanville was to be believed on "Watch What Happens: Live," then her ongoing feud with LeAnn Rimes should be coming to an end. The "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star said she's done "speaking poorly" about Rimes, who had a highly -publicized affair with Glanville's then-husband Eddie Cibrian. Cibrian and Rimes have since married.

Apparently, though, Glanville needs to have a set number of feuds in her life. Just as she closed the door on the Rimes feud, she seemed to try opening one with Chelsea Handler, who was a recent guest of Andy Cohen's on "WWHL."

"She sucked on your show," Glanville told Cohen. "She was horrible. She wasn't funny, it was completely awkward. I saw the after show where she was putting down the ‘Housewives.'"

That last bit may be why Glanville was lashing out. Cohen agreed that Handler "really trashed the 'Housewives.'"

If Handler takes the bait, the two could perhaps collaborate on a book about their feud. They share the same book agent, who's helped see Handler to the top of the charts with several books, while Glanville's new book just debuted at #2 on the New York Times bestsellers list.

Catch Brandi Glanville every Monday on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" at 8 p.m. EST on Bravo, while "Watch What Happens: Live" airs on the same network every Sunday through Thursday at 11 p.m. EST.

Desiree Hartsock Is The Next 'Bachelorette'

Tue, 2013-03-12 03:03

Desiree Hartsock is the new "Bachelorette."

The Season 17 "Bachelor" contestant will be the "Bachelorette" for Season 9 of the ABC spinoff series.

"I just can't even believe I'm here," Desiree said on the "Bachelor" Season 17 "After The Rose" special on Monday night. "I just feel so thankful." Tears filled new "Bachelorette" Desiree's eyes as she talked about her upcoming experience. "I'm very hopeful in all of this and I do hope to meet the man of my dreams," she told host Chris Harrison.

The 26-year-old Colorado resident was a fan favorite. She made it to the final four, but was ultimately rejected by Sean Lowe, Season 17's "Bachelor," who was the third-place finalist on Season 8 of "The Bachelorette," which featured Emily Maynard.

Desiree was spotted shooting in Santa Monica last week, E! News reported. "Des was smiling and was happy. She definitely seemed like she was enjoying herself," an eyewitness told the website.

Watch Desiree Hartsock on the "Bachelorette" Season 9, which premieres on Monday, May 20 at 9 p.m. ET on ABC.

Rebecca Shapiro: 'Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills': Kyle Opens Her Hideous Store

Tue, 2013-03-12 02:41

Spoiler alert: Do not read on if you haven't seen Season 3, Episode 17 of Bravo's "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," titled "No Business Like Clothes Business."

Tonight's episode really comes down to one burning question: why is everyone calling Mauricio "Maurice?" Honestly, there is only one person who can call Mauricio "Maurice" and that is Kim Richards when she is out of her mind drunk because she's dating a man who looks like he's part turtle, part bulldog.

I read all your comments after last week's casting bombshell (for those who missed it, Adrienne is not returning for season 4 and Camille might not be either). It seems as though few of you were sad to see her go. In fact, many commenters were more concerned with Kim and why she was acting like a total lunatic, which is a tremendously valid concern. One commenter also worried that Ken is looking more and more like his dog and actually turning into Giggy -- another valid point.

Just a little update about Adrienne: Brandi Glanville appeared on HuffPost Live last week and confirmed that Adrienne did not show up to the reunion taping (she also clarified why she wore that dress to the Oscars). She would not divulge any other information about how the production handled Adrienne's absence, but I for one cannot wait to see how that panned out.

We returned to the housewives tonight to watch their final night in Paris, a vacation that looked like even less fun than the most boring of all boring housewives trips in Ojai. Brandi actually spelled out the extent of the terribleness when she said that the best part of the trip was finding common ground with Kim. You went to Paris and that was the best part?! Yikes.

Without further ado, let's see how the ladies fared in tonight's poll:

Most Popular: Brandi
I only say that Brandi was the most popular this episode because Yolanda gave her a pair of shoes for being the single gal on the Paris trip. She did not give a gift to Kim, who I think is also single and going through a pretty rough time. But Kim's lucky -- the shoes were gross.

Voice of (Little) Reason: Kim
Kim sat Kyle down at her hideous store party to explain why she was acting so out of it during their trip to Paris. Turns out that she wasn't wearing her contacts and messed up her medication and thought some pill that made her act crazy some months back was actually her water pill. Now, when Lisa asked Kim if she took a sleeping pill in Paris, Kim freaked out and threw a tantrum saying that Lisa implied that Kim broke her sobriety. Did Kim just admit to breaking her sobriety with messing up her medication? I'm very confused. Kim -- put your damn contacts in next time.

Lamest Couple: Yolanda and David
There are some housewives scenes that are so utterly bizarre that I can't help but feel totally creeped out in the comfort and safety of my home. So thank you for nothing, Yolanda and David.

That photo shoot was one of the strangest things I've ever watched -- mostly because of David creepily cupping his wife's breasts from a distance when he was asked to "touch her hip," and when he gave her the end of his tie to kiss, which she dutifully did. WHAT IN THE WORLD?! Why is Yolanda kissing his tie? Why is David cupping Yolanda's breasts from a distance like an adolescent teenager playing a prank? Why did she look so enthused by it? As I said, the scene was bizarre to the point of uncomfortable.

Least Likely To Succeed: Dana
Oh, Dana. I so wanted to put Kyle in this category because I truly think her store is one of the most hideous things I've ever seen (have I mentioned that yet?), but Dana -- oh my 25-thou Dana. First of all, a monochromatic Dana returned to show us that she has adopted the khaki palette to its fullest extent. She was also wasted -- and by wasted I mean possibly under the influence of crack/cocaine laced with heroin, LSD, and any other drug ... if that's a thing, which it probably isn't. I don't know why this woman -- who was generally a sweet person last season -- would return like this faux high-rolling, cracked out Stepford wife. It was one of those scenes that I couldn't even laugh at because I felt so sad for her. But then she couldn't light her cigarette for about 10 seconds, a moment I found highly entertaining, so I had to rewind a few times.

Most Likely To Become A Terrible Therapist: Yolanda
I think our Dutch princess was trying to use some sort of fruit-related metaphor for being a spoilsport, but then I just started thinking about fruit baskets and how I can't wait for the fresh produce that comes with spring and summer. Taylor told Yolanda that she originally didn't like her creepy husband David Foster because he used to be married to one of Taylor's good friends. But then she got to know him after he yelled at her that one time for not letting her sing aloud, and she decided she was a fan.

"Let that be a lesson to you," Yolanda advised. "When one person says something bad it's like the whole entire group is going to rot and spoil to death. Like a basket of fruit, right? The rotten apple is in the bottom and then before you know it, it's all rotten! I'm just not cool with that stuff."

I kind of lost you Yolanda, but if you ever want to illustrate the metaphor by sending me a fruit basket with some fresh lemons from your grove, I will happily accept.

Worst Dressed: Faye -- always
Faye was actually in tonight's episode and wore some hideous dress that's available in Kyle's hideous store that was only rivaled by the hideous dress Kyle wore as well. A dear friend ventured into Kyle's store this past weekend and sent a dispatch from the front lines. "I just don't really get it," she told me. "It kind of looks cheap, but then you look at the price tag and it's crazy expensive." Gross.

Best Dressed: Portia
The final 20 minutes of the episode would have been a crashing bore if it wasn't for Portia, her frilly dress, cardigan and matching bow. Well done, girl.

Best One-Liner: Yolanda
"Don't talk about my husband. He's been so good to all his ex-wives." Right.

And there we have it! What did you think of tonight's episode? Did I leave anything out? Do you agree with the poll? Sound off in the comments below!

"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" airs on Mondays at 8 p.m. EST on Bravo.

SPOILERS: Who Won 'The Bachelor's' Final Rose?

Mon, 2013-03-11 22:44

Catherine Giudici has won "The Bachelor" and received Sean Lowe's final rose. Catherine is a 26-year-old graphic designer from Seattle, WA, who has impressed Sean with her traditional values all season long, even expressing her reservations about the Fantasy Suite. Sean is reportedly a born-again virgin who has vowed not to have sex before marriage. Catherine previously admitted that one of the items on her bucket list was to ride an elephant in Thailand, a wish that Sean made come true in the "Bachelor" season finale.

Sean's runner up was Lindsay Yenter, a 24-year-old substitute teacher from Fort Bragg, NC. The final rose ceremony took place near Chiang Rai, Thailand. As usual, the engagement ring was provided by jeweler Neil Lane, who flew to Thailand to help Sean choose the perfect design.

Do you think Sean made the right choice? Weigh in below!

New 'Star Wars' Show In The Works

Mon, 2013-03-11 22:30

"Star Wars: The Clone Wars" has been canceled ... at least, on Cartoon Network. Though Lucasfilm announced the series will no longer air on the channel, the company said new "Clone Wars" content will be produced ... and distributed elsewhere.

"After five highly successful and critically acclaimed seasons of 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars,' we feel the time has come to wind down the series," Lucasfilm said on its website. The company is also delaying the launch of "Star Wars: Detours," a comedy series that was in the works before Disney purchased Lucasfilm and announced plans to launch a new trilogy.

It's not all bad news for "Star Wars" fans. "We are exploring a whole new 'Star Wars' series set in a time period previously untouched in 'Star Wars' films or television programming," Lucasfilm said. "You can expect more details in the months to come."

Talk of a live-action "Star Wars" series set between the two current trilogies has been around for years. The series, at one point called "Star Wars: Underworld," was set om the 20-year gap between "Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith" and the beginning of "Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope."
