DAVID LETTERMAN CALLS HIS CHEATING "STUPID BEHAVIOR":
DAVID LETTERMAN opened up about his cheating Friday on "Live! With Regis and Kelly". And he called his affairs . . . which were brought to light after someone tried to blackmail him . . . quote, "stupid behavior." --He said, quote, "You think an explosion has taken place and you're looking at the shards and you say, 'Well, can we put this back together?' --"And by God, maybe you can put it back together. And maybe it won't be the same, but maybe it will be different, and maybe it can even be better in a different way. --"And so right now, that's what we're doing, we're putting the thing back together to see what it's going to look like. And is it viable? Is it something that can be satisfying and fulfilling?" --Letterman has been with his girlfriend, Regina Lasko, since 1986. They had a son, Harry, in 2003 . . . then finally got married last March. (--And they made it a whole seven months before he had to admit he was cheating on her.)(--You can grab some video here . . .)http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b178906_letterman_talks_sex_scandal_it_was.html
MARIAH CAREY AND NICK CANNON RENEWED THEIR VOWS FRIDAY:
MARIAH CAREY and NICK CANNON celebrated their second anniversary by renewing their vows Friday at their Beverly Hills home. They had an outdoor ceremony with a string quartet, and Nick gave Mariah a ring made out of white gold, encrusted with pink sapphires and white diamonds. --It was made to look like one of those "Ring Pops" your kids love . . . because, you know, Mariah is totally mature like that. (???) (--Seriously . . . when Nick proposed three years ago, he had the engagement ring disguised in a Ring Pop wrapper.)
THE "NATIONAL ENQUIRER" SAYS PRESIDENT OBAMA CHEATED ON HIS WIFE:
The "National Enquirer" says that PRESIDENT OBAMA cheated on his wife MICHELLE. Two years ago, I'd have blown that off as another silly tabloid rumor. --But then the "Enquirer" broke the JOHN EDWARDS story . . . and got nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for it. So we should at least keep an ear to the ground on this one. --The alleged "other woman" is one Vera Baker. She was 35 years old when she worked on Obama's Senate campaign in 2004. That's when they met, and that's when it all started. --She ended up leaving the campaign because Michelle became jealous of her. --According to the "Enquirer", there's actual EVIDENCE of the affair. First, there's a limo driver who has admitted to taking Baker to a secret rendezvous with Obama at a hotel in 2004. --Initially, the "Enquirer" was saying that there was also a hotel surveillance tape that would bolster the story. But they're not being so bold anymore. Now they're only saying that people are LOOKING for a surveillance tape that MIGHT exist.. --Anti-Obama crusaders are reportedly offering up to $1 million for proof of the affair.
LANCE ARMSTRONG IS GOING TO HAVE ANOTHER KID:
LANCE ARMSTRONG may only have one testicle, but it's still pedaling like a champ. His girlfriend, Anna Hansen, is pregnant with their second child. She's due this October. --They don't know what they're having yet, so right now, they're calling their baby Cinco Armstrong. (--That's because it'll be Lance's FIFTH child. He and Anna have a 10-month-old son named Max . . . and Lance has three kids with his ex-wife: 11-year-old Luke and 8-year-old twins Isabelle and Grace.) --Oh, and by the way . . . "Cinco" has its own Twitter account. And it has already Tweeted, quote, "I got 2 arms, 2 legs, a nickname, and [I'm] 2 inches long. See y'all in October." --And, "I'm now the size of a lemon, 3.5 inches long, and weigh 1.5 ounces. And oh yeah, I'm on Twitter."
ONE OF BRET MICHAELS' DOCTORS SAYS HE HAS "UNBELIEVABLE FIGHT IN HIM":
We still don't know much about how BRET MICHAELS is doing . . . but we will tomorrow, when doctors at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix hold a press conference to discuss his condition and his prognosis. --In the meantime, the doctors are impressed with Bret's determination. --Dr. Joseph Zabramski says, quote, "Bret's sheer will to live and fully recover is undeniable." He added that Bret has, quote, "an unbelievable fight in him." --It may have been that fight and will to live that saved Bret's life when he suffered a brain hemorrhage a little over a week ago. --Dr. Zabramski added, quote, "Bret told me what kept him alive at the moment of the hemorrhage was that he did not want his family to wake up and see him lying unconscious in the middle of the floor."
MICHAEL JACKSON'S DERMATOLOGIST IS GETTING DEATH THREATS FOR SAYING MICHAEL WAS GAY:
MICHAEL JACKSON'S former dermatologist, Dr. Arnold Klein, says he's been receiving, quote, "horrible death threats" since he "confirmed" last week that Michael was gay. --A guy named Jason Pfeiffer, who was Klein's office manager, has been claiming for a while that he had a romantic relationship with Michael. --And Klein is now calling Jason the love of Michael's life. He added that it was the only gay relationship that Michael had, to his knowledge, and that it lasted about two months. --But Klein would like all the haters to know that he has NOT betrayed Michael, because Michael never tried to hide the fact that he was gay. --Klein also claims that he "outed" Michael because he wanted to prove that Michael wasn't a pedophile (--Both Klein and Pfeiffer say they've been in touch with the FBI over the death threats, and have had to hire securit. .)
TIGER WOODS CHOKED AT QUAIL HOLLOW:
TIGER WOODS choked HARD at the Quail Hollow tournament in North Carolina this weekend. He actually had to watch the championship from the sidelines after MISSING THE CUT, thanks to the 79 he shot on Friday. --That's the second-highest game he's shot in his career, and his very WORST EVER on American soil. --He shot a 43 on the back nine, which tied his worst nine-hole score. Over 36 holes, he shot a 153. That's his worst effort in the 14 years he's been on the PGA Tour. --After he bombed out, Tiger said, quote, "It does bother me, no doubt. But at least I get the weekend to watch and see how it's done, how real players play golf. And hopefully, I can piece it together for next week and be ready to go." --But Tiger refused to blame the CHAOS in his personal life. He said, quote, "Every day I do media, I get asked it, so it doesn't go away. Even when I'm at home paparazzi still follow us, helicopters still hover around. --"Does it test you? Yes, of course it does. Is that any excuse? No, because I'm out there and I have the same opportunity as everybody else here in this field to shoot a good number. And I didn't do it." --Tiger returns to his home state this week for the Players Championship in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. The festivities begin on Thursday. WILL LINDSAY LOHAN GO TO JAIL???
There's a story kicking around the World Wide Web of Shoddy Reporting that LINDSAY LOHAN might spend a significant portion of her summer behind bars. --Lindsay is required to attend one alcohol education class per week, as part of her probation for her two DUI arrests back in 2007. --And supposedly, she hasn't been doing that. She's got a status hearing coming up on the 20th of this month, and the word is that they might stuff her in a cell for a while. --But Lindsay's attorney says that won't be happening . . . quote, "Though there have been occasional weeks when Lindsay has missed her alcohol treatment class, she has always managed to make up the class the following week by attending two classes. --"For this reason, we contend that Ms. Lohan is in substantial compliance with the conditions of her probation." (--Meanwhile, rumor has it that Lindsay's attorney will meet with a lawyer for her psycho dad, MICHAEL LOHAN, in person this week, to hash out their issues.) (--Michael wants Lindsay in REHAB, and he's threatening to seek a conservatorship . . . like the one Britney Spears' dad has over Britney . . . if she refuses.)
THE ORANGE COUNTY HOME THAT SANDRA BULLOCK AND JESSE JAMES SHARED IS ON THE MARKET:
The Orange County home that SANDRA BULLOCK and JESSE JAMES once shared is on the market for just under $6 million. --The house is being sold discreetly . . . it won't be listed and there won't be any open houses. Potential buyers will have to pre-qualify. There's no word where Jesse plans to live.
ROMAN POLANKSI "BROKE HIS SILENCE," BUT IT WAS JUST ANOTHER STATEMENT ABOUT HOW HE'S BEING TREATED UNFAIRLY:
ROMAN POLANSKI released a statement to a French magazine yesterday, as a way to publicly break his silence about possible extradition to the U.S. But it was basically another explanation of how he thinks he's been punished enough. --He said, quote, "I have decided to break my silence in order to address myself directly to you without any intermediaries and in my own words. --"I have had my share of dramas and joys, as we all have, and I am not going to try to ask you to pity my lot in life. I ask only to be treated fairly like anyone else." --Long story short: Polanski spent 42 days behind bars in California in 1977 for drugging and having sex with a 13-year-old girl. He says he made an agreement with the judge to plead guilty to a lesser charge and serve a short sentence. --Then the judge changed his mind. But HE didn't, so he fled the U.S. And according to Polanski, the whole thing is only being revisited 33 years later because the District Attorney handling the old case is campaigning for election, and needs publicity.
"BATMAN 3" WILL COME OUT IN JULY OF 2012:
Warner Brothers has set July 20th, 2012 as the release date for the third "Batman" movie. --As far as casting, all we know is that CHRISTIAN BALE will return as Bruce Wayne (slash) Batman . . . and CHRISTOPHER NOLAN will once again direct. (--No word whether Miley Cyrus will return to do Batman's voice.) --The movie's title hasn't been announced yet, nor have any plot details, like who the villains will be. --Nolan has made it sound in past interviews like this will be the last movie in the series. Of course, that's ultimately the STUDIO'S decision, not his. (--And if "Batman 3" does the kind of numbers that "The Dark Knight" did, they'll do "Batman 4" with or without him.) --One character you can probably rule out seeing is Robin. Both Bale and Nolan have said the franchise will NOT go that route while they're involved.
"ANCHORMAN 2" IS DEAD:
It seemed like everyone . . . including the original cast . . . wanted to do "Anchorman 2". Which is why it's shocking to have to report today that the studio KILLED IT. --Director and co-writer ADAM MCKAY broke the news on Twitter the other day. He said, quote, "So bummed. Paramount basically passed on 'Anchorman 2'. Even after we cut our budget down. We tried. --"To all who asked: no we can't do 'Anchorman 2' at another studio. Paramount owns it."
CONAN O'BRIEN DOESN'T REGRET ANY DECISIONS HE MADE . . . AND HINTS THAT NBC AND JAY LENO SHOULD REGRET THEIRS:
CONAN O'BRIEN'S first post-"Tonight Show" interview aired on "60 Minutes" last night . . . just one day after his NBC exit deal permitted him to appear on TV. --It was a pretty candid interview . . . in which Conan didn't shy away from sharing his REAL feelings. Here are a few highlights: --On when he realized it was over at NBC: "It just felt like the tone went very quickly from, 'Take your time, we understand this is a tough decision,' to 'Let's go.' --"That probably helped me a little bit feel like, 'You know what? This environment doesn't feel right, and I've been with these people a long time. And I don't like . . . I really don't like the way this is going.' --"And when it started to get toxic and I started to feel that I'm not sure these . . . people even really want me here. Let's just . . . let's just . . . I can't do it." --On how he felt after being screwed by JAY LENO and NBC: "I went through some stuff. And I got very depressed at times. It was like a marriage breaking up suddenly, violently, quickly. And I was just trying to figure out what happened. --"[But] when we started putting [my] tour together, I started to feel better almost immediately. And . . . there is almost no better antidote to what I've just been through than to do this every night." --On whether or not he saw any of this coming: "I'm a paranoid person. And I think . . . I'm the kind of person that can come up with lots of negative scenarios. But I remembered thinking that seemed like . . . that was a stretch even for me." --On regrets: "I don't regret anything. I don't regret one decision I made in that week and a half period. I wish it had ended differently. But, I'm fine. --"I do believe, and this might be my Catholic upbringing or Irish magical thinking, but I think things happen for a reason. I really do. And I think that this all happened for a reason." --On if he thought Jay Leno acted honorably: Interestingly enough, this was the only time Conan backed away from answering a question. --But he did say, quote, "I don't think I can answer that. I don't think . . . I can just tell you maybe how I would have handled it. And I would do it differently. --"What I know is what happened, which is that he went and took that show back . . . here's what I can say. I'm happy with my decision. I sleep well at night. And I, you know, hope he's happy with his decision." --On his new show on TBS, which will premiere this November: "I do not look down my nose at cable. And I think anyone who does isn't paying attention to television these days. 'Cause it is . . . this world is changing very quickly. --"It's crucial to me that anyone seeing this, they take anything away from this, it's I'm fine. I'm doing great. I hope people still find me comedically absurd and ridiculous." --And he also said, quote, "The biggest thing people come up and say to me in gas stations and restaurants, I have so many people say this to me, 'Hey partner, you got screwed.' And I always tell them, 'No, I didn't. I didn't get screwed.' --"I'm, I'm fine. It just, it didn't work out." --And, Conan's wife, Liza O'Brien, said, quote, "It was watching someone's heart get broken. From my perspective, it felt like they never really gave him the job." (--Here's a clip from "60 Minutes" . . .) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9hBlc99cz4
PRESIDENT OBAMA RIPPED JAY LENO AT THE WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS' DINNER:
JAY LENO was a speaker at this year's White House Correspondents' Association Dinner . . . but before he stepped onstage, PRESIDENT OBAMA welcomed him with a few sharp, but good-natured digs. --Obama joked, quote, "I am glad that the only person whose ratings fell more than mine last year is here tonight. Good to see you, Jay." --And then he added, quote, "I'm also glad that I'm speaking first, because we've all seen what happens when someone takes the timeslot after Leno's." --Leno also made a few "jokes" about the Obamas. In one, he said, quote, "Some of you in the news have mentioned that the president has been getting a little gray since taking office . . . ". . . but he's had his share of stress: tough economy, two wars, healthcare fight, Iran, North Korea, his mother-in-law moving in with him . . . I think that would break most men." (--You can watch some of Obama's attempts at hilarity below. The part about Leno is at the end, beginning at the 2:30 mark.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmm4UJgfrfg(--And here are Leno's "highlights" . . .)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISTe8MMLGPI

CHRIS BROWN walked out on a radio interview . . . (--with Kash at WRVQ out of Richmond, Virginia) . . . on Thursday. --Technically, the interview hadn't even started yet. During some recorded banter beforehand, Chris asked the DJ why they never played his tracks. --The DJ said he told Chris, quote, "You just don't have any hits and that's just the truth. You don't have any hits right now." To prove his point, he then asked Chris what number his latest track was on the charts. --Chris said, quote, "All I'm saying is that you don't play my (stuff). --"What number is [my song] at? It don't matter. Why am I even doing this interview? (Eff) that. I ain't doing this (crap)!" And then he walked out. --Chris hasn't commented on this "interview" yet, but the DJ says executives at Chris' label, Jive, have called him to apologize. (--Here's the poorly bleeped audio of Chris acting like a "diva" . . .) (--CAREFUL: You can barely catch his F-bomb, but it's still pretty obvious what he's saying through the bleeps on both of those S-words . . .)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7qGhE6tP7k

(--This is the first time Ozzy and Motley Crue have toured together since 1984, when Ozzy gave the Crue their big break by asking them to open for him.) --And apparently there aren't any hard feelings between Ozzy and his former guitarist ZAKK WYLDE . . . because Zakk's band, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY, will be headlining the second stage. --The tour will make six stops . . . from August 14th in San Bernardino, California, through August 24th in Boston.

CHRISTINA AGUILERA is looking for attention again . . . or at least, that's the impression that her new video seems to be giving off. --The video for "Not Myself Tonight" is pretty naughty . . . with Christina and her scantily clad female dancers performing all kinds of sexy moves.

(--Here's the poorly bleeped audio of Chris acting like a "diva" . . .) (--CAREFUL: You can barely catch his F-bomb, but it's still pretty obvious what he's saying through the bleeps on both of those S-words . . .)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7qGhE6tP7k

MEATBALL CRIMINAL OF THE DAY: A WAITRESS WHO WAS OUT ON DISABILITY GOT CAUGHT POLE DANCING AT A STRIP CLUB:
Here it is: Your Meatball Criminal of the Day. And this time . . . it's a lady. She's 43-year-old Christina Gamble of Quakertown, Pennsylvania (--in the eastern part of the state, about 50 miles north of Philadelphia). --Back in November of 2007, Christina was working as a waitress at Red Robin. She slipped and fell during her shift, hurt her back and filed for worker's comp. --One year later, a judge awarded her worker's comp benefits, and she's been collecting ever since. She told the judge that her back injury made it too difficult to stand and change positions, so she couldn't work as a waitress anymore. --Since then, she's collected $22,727 in disability benefits and $4,118 in medical expenses. --Well . . . the state Attorney General's Office hired some private investigators to check Christina out, to make sure her claim was legit . . . which is a standard move in big worker's comp cases. --And those private investigators found that Christina was 100% LYING . . . because, just eight days after she told the judge she couldn't stand, they found her POLE DANCING as a STRIPPER at a local strip club called C.R. Fanny's. --Since it was clear she could "stand and change positions" just fine, they put together a case against her and, last week, she was arrested. --She's been charged with two counts of insurance fraud and one count of theft by deception . . . and is looking at up to 21 YEARS in prison and a $15,000 fine. (Morning Call)
AND NOW, THE STORY OF THE WOMAN WHO STILL BREASTFEEDS HER FIVE-YEAR-OLD SON:
Our hearts go out today to five-year-old Jonathan Hurst of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England, today . . . because, sadly, there's no way in hell he's going to grow up to have a normal life.--Jonathan's mother is 29-year-old Amanda Hurst, and she LOVES breastfeeding. Loves it. Loves it so much that she is STILL breastfeeding five-year-old Jonathan. --Loves it so much that when she watches her friends' babies and young children, she offers to breastfeed those kids too. --Amanda says she doesn't think there's anything wrong with breastfeeding a first grader . . . quote, "It not only boosts [his] immune system, it keeps me healthy too by lowering my risk of breast cancer." --She didn't stop breastfeeding Jonathan in public until he was three . . . and now, when he suckles up at home, she says he considers it a treat, quote, "like eating chocolate." --According to a breastfeeding counselor, quote, "There's no evidence that breastfeeding children at any age is in any way harmful, either psychologically or physically . . . the milk remains as healthy." (Daily Mail)
A 28-YEAR-OLD WAS ARRESTED FOR STEALING XANAX OUT OF HIS MOM'S BRA . . . WHILE SHE WAS WEARING IT:
Last week, in Memphis, Tennessee, a woman, whose name hasn't been released, got a bit of a rude awakening. The woman was sleeping . . . and woke up when she felt some hands reach under her shirt and into her bra. Those hands belonged to . . . her 28-year-old son, Charlie Boyd. --Don't worry, this isn't a weird Oedipal incest story . . . Charlie wasn't trying to fondle his mom. He was trying to STEAL HER XANAX. --Apparently, she and Charlie had been having huge problems with him grabbing her prescription Xanax, so she thought the only place to keep them safe from him would be her bra. Well . . . nope. --Charlie actually ended up getting the Xanax from her . . . so she called the police. They found Charlie hiding under a neighbor's SUV, with all 22 of his mom's pills. --When they searched his room it was clear that anti-depressants aren't his only drug of choice: They found crack pipes, a spoon with meth on it, other random pills and a needle. --He was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell and possession of drug paraphernalia.

HERE'S WHAT YOUR SLEEP POSITION SAYS ABOUT YOUR PERSONALITY:
I sleep naked on a pile of money with many beautiful women. That's just part of the radio life. For everyone else, here are the results of a new study that made connections between people's sleep positions and their personalities. Check it out.
--THE FETAL POSITION. If you sleep like this, you're most likely to put up a tough exterior and seem standoffish . . . but, once someone gets to know you, they'll find you're sensitive and friendly.
--THE LOG POSITION. If you sleep on your side, keeping your body perfectly straight with both arms down, it means you're a social, easy-going, trusting person . . . but you can also be too gullible.
--"YEARNER" POSITION. This is where you lay on your side with your arms extended out to the side. People who sleep like this are open-minded but still cynical. They also are stubborn about the decisions they make.
--SOLDIER POSITION. This is when you sleep on your back with your arms to your sides. People who sleep like this are reserved, quiet, low-maintenance, and hold themselves to a high standard.
--FREEFALL POSITION. If you sleep face down with your arms up near your head, you're loud, outgoing and hate being criticized.
--STARFISH POSITION. This is when you sleep on your back with your arms up near your head. If you sleep like that, it means you're good listener, helpful and uncomfortable being the center of attention. (Shine from Yahoo)
ARIZONA ICED TEA IS DOING EVERYTHING IT CAN TO DISTANCE ITSELF FROM THE STATE OF ARIZONA:
There's been a huge backlash against the state of Arizona since it announced its new immigration laws . . . and, it turns out, that hasn't been good news for the people at Arizona Iced Tea. --When they found out that some people had called for a BOYCOTT of their iced tea, they went public to announce: Other than the name, we've got nothing to do with Arizona . . . our company is in New York City. --Besides the iced tea, some people are boycotting companies that actually ARE in Arizona, like Cold Stone Creamery, Dial soap, PF Chang's, Fender guitars, U-Haul, GoDaddy.com, Sky Mall, US Airways and Best Western.

RED-HAIRED PEOPLE ARE MORE LIKELY THAN ANYONE ELSE TO USE TANNING BEDS:
The summer is tough for red-haired people . . . I mean, even more than usual. --In the next few months, everyone else is going to be out at the beaches tanning . . . while redheads know that if they even step outside for two seconds without SPF 800 sunblock their fragile, bright white skin is going to get burned up.--Which is why this isn't really a surprise: A new survey by the British Association of Dermatologists found that red-haired people are the most likely to use tanning beds to try to get some color in their skin.--Nina Goad ran the survey. Quote, "Pale skinned people are at far higher risk of skin cancer than other groups so it's alarming that they're most inclined to use [tanning] beds. This shows the lengths that people will go to for a [tan]." (StyleList)

CAN OLD WIVES' TALES PREDICT YOUR BABY'S SEX?:
There are a million old wives' tales about how to predict your unborn baby's sex. But are any of them true? A writer for NewScientist.com who's pregnant decided to do some research. Here's what she found . . .
OLD WIVES' TALE #1.) BAD MORNING SICKNESS MEANS IT'S A BOY. Actually, the opposite might be true. In 1999, doctors in Sweden analyzed the records of over 8,000 women they treated for morning sickness.--55.7% had girls, and only 44.3% had boys. Compare that to the general population. Overall, 51.4% of the babies born in Sweden are boys. And a separate study in Denmark had similar statistics. --But here's something else they found that's even weirder. SINGLE MOTHERS with morning sickness were even MORE likely to have girls. Only 40% of them had boys.
OLD WIVES' TALE #2.) IF THE BABY HAS A FAST HEARTBEAT, IT'S A GIRL. According to this one, if the baby's heart rate is higher than 140 beats per minute, you're having a girl. --But researchers used an ultrasound to measure the heartbeats of 477 babies in their first trimester, and there wasn't much of a difference. The average heart rate for girls was 152 beats per minute, and the average heart rate for boys was 155. --Plus, it changes depending on what stage of pregnancy you're in. At the beginning of a pregnancy, the baby's heart rate is between 170 and 200 beats per minute. Then by the second trimester, it's drops to between 120 and 160 beats per minute. --The only time there IS a difference is during labor. Baby girls tend to have faster heart rates than boys do, but no one knows why.
OLD WIVES' TALE #3.) WEIRD FOOD CRAVINGS MEANS IT'S A BOY. This one actually has a LITTLE science to back it up, but still it's probably just a myth. --Researchers in Boston found that pregnant women with big appetites have boys more often. But they didn't say anything about women who crave WEIRD food. --And the problem is, it's hard to know if you have a bigger appetite than other women because ALL pregnant women eat more than they usually do.
OLD WIVES' TALE #4.) WOMEN JUST KNOW. Some women say their "female intuition" can predict the baby's sex. And guess what . . . they might be right. --In 1998, researchers at the University of Tucson asked 108 pregnant women to predict the sex of their baby. 60% guessed right. Of course, the chances of guessing right are fifty-fifty anyway, so it's not THAT amazing.
OLD WIVES' TALE #5.) THE SHAPE OF THE BUMP. The myth is, if you're carrying the baby high, it's a boy, if you're carrying the baby low, it's a girl. But there's really nothing to back this one up either. --The only thing that can predict a baby's sex with CLOSE to 100% accuracy is a sonogram. They're 95% accurate. (NewScientist.com)
