Miley Cyrus Speaks on Big Bang Video, 18th Birthday Plans and More

What was it like for Miley Cyrus to make out with Keven Zegers in the music video for The Big Bang? How will this singer celebrate her 18th birthday in just a few days?
During a break from rehearsing for her appearance at this Sunday's American Music Awards, Miley answered these questions and more. To wit:
"Kevin is actually the boyfriend of someone that works very closely with me," Miley says. "So there was definitely a little awkwardness since she was on set or whatever."

For understandable reasons, Miley remained mum on the topic of her parents' divorce, not commenting on rumors that she played an indirect role in their split.

Bristol Palin Defends Willow Palin, Sort of Apologizes For Gay Slur

With 16-year-old Willow Palin catching some serious heat for calling an old classmate a f***ot on Facebook, older sister Bristol stepped up to apologize.
"Willow and I shouldn't have reacted to the negative comments about our family. We apologize," Bristol Palin wrote on her Facebook wall. "On a nicer note, thank you for supporting the great competition in Dancing with the Stars!"
Nice plug.

Bristol Palin has her sister Willow's back.

A few hours later, B-Palin added: "Thank you supporters who continue to support. The haters are already pulling out all the stops this week to destroy."
Yes, there it is. The conspiracy angle. Some misguided defenders of the Palins have opined that using the word f----t is only bad because it's Willow.
Bristol did not specifically mention Willow's gay slur directed at Tre, some dude who supposedly went to their school, and who updated his Facebook page Sunday with, "Sarah Palin's Alaska is failing so hard right now."
Not to take this biting criticism of her mom's show lightly, Willow retorted: "Haha your so gay. I have no idea who you are, But what I've seen pictures of, your disgusting … My sister had a kid and is still hot...Tre stfu. Your such a f----t."
For her part, Bristol joined Willow in bashing Tre, writing: "You're running your mouth just to talk s--t." She also singled out some guy named "Jon," writing: "You'll be as successful as my baby daddy, And actually I do work my ass off."
"I've been a single mom for the last two years."
Willow has since deleted her Facebook account. Should we care what a teenager says? Is it any less bad because the word is common? The question remains ...

Erin Barry and Tony Parker: Inside Their Sexting and Eva Longoria's Revenge

Eva Longoria was devastated when she discovered her husband, Tony Parker, had been trading sexual texts with Erin Barry, the wife of his former teammate.
Erin and Brent Barry had been close friends with Eva and Tony at one point, making the betrayal even harder on the Desperate Housewives star, reports say.
That's why she decided to blindside him by filing for divorce from Parker before they decided to take the breakup news public, according to Radar. Point, Eva!

BARRY BAD CALL: Never text dirty with your teammate's wife.

“They were working out the details. They didn’t want it to become a messy divorce," says a source. "Then Eva got a little revenge and didn’t tell Tony she was filing and dropped the papers on him, catching him off balance for the media blitz.”
While some reports say the exchanges between Tony and Erin Barry were “innocent,” conflicting stories call the sext-messaging flirtatious, sexual and "over the line."
Erin Barry is also in the midst of a divorce from Brent. It's unclear if the relationship with Parker ever became physical, but it sure sent Eva into a tailspin.
Parker apparently claims it never progressed beyond texting.
“Look, any wife is going to be upset with what Tony did, but he swears the relationship with Erin stopped there and they never had sex,” a source tells Radar.
“And Tony also says the text messages ended months ago.”
Doesn't sound so minor when coupled with reports that Longoria herself not only filed for divorce out of nowhere, but leaked the story of Tony's infidelity.
“Suddenly, Eva Longoria not only filed the papers but then went public with Tony’s relationship with Erin Barry. He was surprised, to say the least."
Interestingly, initial reports of the couple's demise said that Tony filed divorce papers in Texas. This was in fact the plan, but he never did so.
“He held off,” the source said. “It had been discussed but then was abandoned. Next thing he knew she surprised him by filing on Wednesday."
Take that! Eva issued a brief statement confirming the split after the fact, and her reason for feeling burned is, honestly, quite understandable.
“Eva is furious that Tony started a relationship with a woman she knew, a woman they went out with as couple friends," says the insider. "She felt betrayed by Tony and this is how she decided to get a small measure of revenge.”
Well played, Eva Longoria. Well. Played.

Change is Coming to American Idol

A new judging panel isn't the only change coming to season 10 of American Idol.
Producer Nigel Lythgoe told TV Guide this week that he has a couple unique ideas for the season that kicks off in January:
1. There will be no top 24, as the show will cut contestants directly down to the final 12. Explains Lythgoe: "I didn't think [the top 24] were very good, I was bored with them by the time they got there."

2. Theme weeks will focus on decades instead than individual artists.

3. Finalists will face new challenges, most prominently contests to make the top music video, while also working with a band and dancers for an awards show-type performance.

It also sounds like we'll be treated to more country music than ever before this season. Sounds good to us. What does everyone else think of the changes coming to Idol?

Donald Trump For President? It Could Happen!

Will Donald Trump seriously run for President?
Appearing on Good Morning America today, the mogul, who has toyed with the idea before, was talking about it again this morning - and seriously.
His reasoning was simple: "I'm looking at this country, and what's happened in terms of respect. And the respect for this country is just not there."

TRUMP 2012: Don't laugh. The Donald is considering it.

"I have many people from China that I do business with, they laugh at us. They feel we're fools. And almost being led by fools," Trump continued.
But is he the man to change all that?
According to Trump, the United States has become a "whipping post" for China to assert its control because of the nations' trade imbalance and China's currency manipulation, a problem he claims President Barack Obama has failed to address.
That would change under Trump, Trump claims.
"When you have billions in dollars in deficits with a country, those are trade wars I like. You don't have to do business with China. You don't have to do business with other countries," The Apprentice creator added, basically firing China.
So will he run or not? He can certainly afford it.
Trump said if he runs, it'll be as a Republican and he would be willing to spend at least $200 million of his own money in a campaign. Watch out, Sarah Palin!
"I would take her on," he says of the Thrilla From Wasilla, although he says it's foolish to underestimate Bristol's mama grizzly. "I like her, but I'd take her on."
His decision will be based, he says, on whether America "continues to be taken advantage of by the world." Basically, subject to change, and interpretation.
"Would I rather be in the race or not be in the race? I can tell you, I love what I'm doing. I'm having a great time doing what I do. I'd rather not [run]."
Just don't write him off yet. That 'd be no fun.
