I’m very happy for Kara DioGuardi.

News is circulating that her deal is sealed and she will absolutely return to American Idol. However, I can’t stop thinking about Paula Abdul.

"Her deal is done. There are no ifs, ands or buts," a source said. "Done. She will be back."

Perhaps she didn’t ask for as much as Paula?E! Online says she is getting far less than what Paula is asking. We all know that American Idol likes conflict and Kara will most certainly bring the pain. Do I need to bring up bikini girl again?

I have a feeling all this hard ball will pay off for Paula. All four judges will be right back where they are supposed to be come audition week.

Gisele is a supermodel. Fact of the matter is, she gets paid to look good. But, what happens when a supermodel gets pregnant? Well, they’ll just airbrush out the baby bump! In her ads for London Fog trench coats her bump was removed.

“Although Gisele
was photographed while pregnant, most of the shots have been retouched
to respect her privacy during this wonderful and personal time in her
life,” Dari Marder Chief Marketing Officer, London Fog revealed in a
press release. “Nobody is sexier or more beautiful than Gisele Bundchen
in nothing but a London Fog trench coat, even with her visible baby
bump,” adds Marder.

Hmmm, do you really think they airbrushed out the bump for Gisele’s privacy? Or is this more a case of the company wanting Gisele and the perfectly toned stomach that they paid for?

The “Real Housewives of Atlanta” (L to R) Sheree Whitfield, Nene Leakes, Kim Kolzciak, Lisa Wu Hartwell and Kandi Burruss celebrated their new season at a private party in Atlanta last night.

The tires of a baby-blue ’53 Cadillac Coupe de Ville convertible squeal down the New York street, and none of its occupants looks back. The beautiful but mercurial Ann Devereaux (Renée Zellweger) has just left her philandering husband Dan Devereaux (Kevin Bacon), a society bandleader, and taken to the road with her teenage sons, George (Logan Lerman) and Robbie (Mark Rendall), in search of a wealthy replacement mate. Although it’s 1953, Ann is certain that her girlish charms will serve her as well as they did two decades earlier.

Sounds something that you might want to see in the theatre? That is the recap for Renee Zellweger’s newest film, ‘My One and Only due out August 21st.

Check out the trailer and let me know what you think.

WHAT?

Summit Entertainment has announced that Bryce Dallas Howard will be Victoria in Eclipse replacing Rachelle Lefevre due to a scheduling conflict.

I’m going to say it… WHAT did Rachelle have going on that would trump TWILIGHT? I mean unless she just landed tje role of Hermione in the latest Harry Potter, I just don’t see it.

Summit Entertainment announced today that Bryce Dallas Howard will take over the role of “Victoria” in the studio’s upcoming production of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE. Actress, Rachelle Lefevre, who portrayed the character in TWILIGHT as well as the upcoming release of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON, will not continue in the role due to scheduling conflicts with another commitment the actor has made. THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE will start filming in Vancouver this coming August.

Either way, are you excited about Bryce becoming part of the franchise?

UPDATE: Rachelle Lefevre has released an official statement to E! Online. Seems that she was blindsighted by the news as well.

"I was stunned by Summit’s decision to recast the role of Victoria for
"Eclipse." I was fully committed to the Twilight saga, and to the
portrayal of Victoria. I turned down several other film opportunities
and, in accordance with my contractual rights, accepted only roles that
would involve very short shooting schedules. My commitment to Barney’s
Version is only ten days.

Summit picked up my option for Eclipse.
Although the production schedule for Eclipse is over three months long,
Summit said they had a conflict during those ten days and would not
accommodate me. Given the length of filming for Eclipse, never did I
fathom I would lose the role over a 10 day overlap.

I was happy with my
contract with Summit and was fully prepared to continue to honor it.
Summit chose simply to recast the part.

I am greatly saddened that I
will not get to complete my portrayal of Victoria for the Twilight
audience. This is a story, a theatrical journey and a character that I
truly love and about which I am very passionate. I will be forever
grateful to the fan support and loyalty I’ve received since being cast
for this role, and I am hurt deeply by Summit’s surprising decision to
move on without me. I wish the cast and crew of Eclipse only the very
best."

How very sad!
