Lucille Ball Turns 100 YEARS OLD Today


On the 100th anniversary of her birth Saturday -- and 60 years since I Love Lucy first aired, Lucille Ball's legacy remains REMARKABLE -- and her talent remains timeless!

Consider other popular sitcoms that aired alongside Ball and Desi Arnaz's show during its 1951-to-1957 life span on CBS. The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet and Father Knows Best, among others, are period Americana that evoke sweet nostalgia far more than laughs.

But I Love Lucy, in all its black-and-white glory, remains a draw worldwide for viewers. Over the past five decades the sitcom has won new audiences -- and introduced Lucy to younger generations -- over and over through TV syndication and video sales.

Charlie Harper Dies from a MEAT EXPLOSION on 'Two and a Half Men'


During Friday night's taping -- Harper married Rose (neighbor/stalker) he flew to Paris with last season -- but apparently things went downhill rather quickly when she catches him in the shower with another woman.

In the episode, Rose speaks at the funeral and recounts what happened to Charlie -- saying the day after the shower incident she and Charlie were waiting for a Paris subway when Charlie "slipped" and the subway LITERALLY blew him apart in a "meat explosion." Perhaps Rose pushed him and got away with murder?

Since Chuck Lorre couldn't take his anger out on Charlie Sheen -- he did what any other writer would do, take the garbage out on Charlie Harper.

"Two and a Half Men" 'Charlie' is Dead and NEVER Coming Back


The season premiere of "Two and a Half Men" will leave NO DOUBT -- Charlie Sheen's character is dead and gone -- and it's FOR GOOD.

Sources connected with the show spoke on set for last night's taping of the premiere -- and the producers made sure there's absolutely no way for 'Charlie Harper' to return to the show in the future. 

As for Ashton Kutcher's debut -- he and Jon Cryer had good chemistry -- and he went out of his way to interact with the audience. At one point Ashton even snuck into the crowd and surprised a woman with a back rub.

Only one audience member said Ashton seemed dry and didn't quite own the character. I guess you can't make them all happy....

ABC Will End 'Desperate Housewives' in May 2012 After 8th Season


We've learned that ABC will announce on Sunday at the Television Critics Association's press tour that next upcoming season will be the last for long-running Desperate Housewives.

Castmembers are starting to be told, and we hear that Teri Hatcher, Felicity Huffman, Marcia Cross, and Eva Longoria are shocked and saddened by the news.

'Two and a Half Men' The FAMOUS Funeral Guests


It's going to be an interesting premiere on "Two and a Half Men" for Charlie Harper's funeral service because one of the stars in attendance will be none other than Uncle Jesse himself -- John Stamos!

Stamos was once rumored to be Charlie Sheen's replacement on the show -- but instead he will just end up playing a cameo role with a couple of words.

Apparently Stamos' character will reveal he and Harper were CLOSE friends -- the kind of friends who once three-way'd a chick together. Jenny McCarthy will also be at the funeral. -- She previously played one of Harper's ex-girlfriends who broke up with Charlie after she got tired of having sex with him.

Melanie Lynskey will also return as "Rose" -- who was last seen going to Paris with Harper in the very last episode featuring Charlie Sheen.

Wonder if Charlie will be tuning in to see his own funeral?

Simon Cowell Talks About Mariah Carey and Cheryl Chole on 'X Factor'

 

"The X Factor" -- Simon Cowell's new post American Idol singing competition -- is more than a month away, but that doesn't stop the British judge to generate some buzz by dropping big names and bigger news.

Cowell spoke to the Television Critics Association on Friday morning about the show. He confirmed reports that he is in talks with Mariah Carey about joining the show, but declined to go into specifics. Carey was one of the names bandied around for a judges' spot earlier this year, but they went to producer "L.A." Reid, Paula Abdul, and British "X Factor" judge Cheryl Cole. Cole was fired after two audition cities and replaced.

The show moved on with Nicole Scherzinger, and debuts on Wednesday, September 21. The winner will receive a $5 million recording contract. It was also announced today that the winner will star in a Pepsi commercial during the Superbowl.

Kris Jenner's Facelift Lawsuit Against Cosmetic Company


Kris Jenner says the cosmetic company she endorses has NO RIGHT to sue her for getting plastic surgery back in June -- because the procedure didn't affect her face. It just tightened up some loose neck skin.

The company in question called B&P -- sued Jenner earlier this week, claiming she breached a contract to endorse a line of their anti-aging skin care products - when the reality show mother publicly admitted to getting a facelift.

B&P alleges, Jenner violated her agreement not to harm the reputation of the company and the product she's endorsing. It's a eye care line called "Beautiful Eyes in a Bag."

Kris says the lawsuit is bogus -- because Kris' facelift didn't affect her eyes in any way -- ONLY HER NECK.

Amy Winehouse's Dad Turns Singer's $4 Million London Home Into a Foundation


After the tragic and sudden loss of their talented and troubled daughter, Amy Winehouse -- the late singer's parents are planning turning her $4 million North London home into the headquarters for the Amy Winehouse Foundation charity.

The ten-room mansion will potentially be used for rehab projects and is expected to include "causes close to the singer's heart," the singer's father, Mitch Winehouse, told the Sun.

"It could include help for children in trouble, kids suffering health problems, children's hospices and more. We want to make a positive difference," Winehouse adds.

The Rehab singer was found dead at her London home on July 23, after a very long and public struggle with substance abuse.

Amy's cause of death is still unknown, and toxicology report results won't be expected for several more weeks, but Winehouse's family confessed recently that they believe Winehouse died of alcohol withdrawal.

LADY GAGA SUED Accused of Ripping Off 'Judas'


Lady Gaga's hit song "Judas" is a total rip-off of a 1999 song called "Juda" -- says a singer named Rebecca Francescatti -- who just filed a lawsuit today against Gaga in federal court.

Rebecca claims the similarities between the two songs are NOT a coincidence -- since her former bass player Brian Gaynor -- is now employed by a music company that wrote 17 songs on Gaga's recent "Born This Way" album.

Rebecca's lawyer, Chris Niro, says  "Though the songs are different styles, the composition is the same and the chorus is the same melody and she is seeking recognition for what she created."

Francescatti, who sings under the name Rebecca F., is suing for unspecified damages.

Brett Ratner and Don Mischer Will Produce Oscar Telecast Next Year


Director Brett Ratner and veteran TV producer/director Don Mischer will produce next year’s Academy Awards telecast -- the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced. Mischer is a returning face, having coproduced this year’s ceremony with Bruce Cohen, while Ratner will tackle one of the toughest jobs in Hollywood for the first time. Ratner, the director of Red Dragon, X-Men: The Last Stand, and all three Rush Hour films, has the Ben Stiller/Eddie Murphy action comedy Tower Heist coming out this November.

The most intriguing part of AMPAS’ announcement is the following quote from new Academy CEO Dawn Hudson: “Brett has a really smart and fresh take for the show.” Can’t wait to see what that is.

The 84th Academy Awards will take place on February 26, 2012. Ratner and Mischer’s first task? Finding a host -- I'm sure that wouldn't be so difficult.

Jason Statham BUYS Ben Stiller's Mansion in Los Angeles

 CLICK PICTURE TO ENLARGE

The Hollywood Reporter reported today that British-born actor Jason Statham has purchased actor/comedian Ben Stiller's two-mansion compound in the low-key Outpost Estates neighborhood in Los Angeles.

Your Mama have no idea if this is truth or fiction–nor do any of the few informants we've queried–but we do know that The Hollywood Reporter has a very good track record with these celebrity real estate scoops. We also know that the virile action movie star–currently on the hot and heavy with panty and bra catwalker Rosie Huntington-Whitely–has been on quite a real estate tear the last couple of years.

First he bought a condo at the Broadway Hollywood building in July 2007 for $1,543,000 and–as per prop records–sold in late May 2011 for $1,200,000, a teeth-grinding $343,000 loss not counting carrying costs and real estate fees. In June 2009 the architecture appreciating Mister Statham splashed out a very a-list $10,950,000 for a contemporary wood and glass ocean front home in the guard-gated and celebrity-stocked Malibu Colony. Oddly enough, he sold his condo at the Broadway Hollywood to a couple who also own a home in the Malibu Colony. Most recently Mister Statham sold his modernist house above the Sunset Strip to talent agent Joel Lubin for $2,700,000 after just a few weeks on the open market with an asking price of $2,749,000.

For what it's worth, Mr. Stiller's 10 bedroom and 11 bathroom compound still appears on the open market as active and available with an asking price of $11,495,000 but that doesn't, my dears, mean a damn thing butter beans. Wily real estate agents in Tinseltown who do deals with high-profile peeps have been known on occasion to attempt to fool all us real estate gossips and looky-loos by not changing the status of a property on the online listing(s) until every last transaction paper is signed, sealed, and delivered.

    Michael Patrick King Says NO "Sex and the City" Prequel


    The man behind the "Sex and the City" TV series and movies said on Wednesday he is not working on a possible "prequel" and has no interest in one, quashing media speculation about a new chapter in the hugely successful franchise.

    "I am not working on any 'Sex and the City' prequel at all," Michael Patrick King (writer & director) told television journalists gathered for a bi-annual meeting of critics.

    King brought the original books by Candace Bushnell to life first in the Emmy-award winning HBO series, "Sex and the City," and later in two movies starring Sarah Jessica Parker as New York journalist and fashionista Carrie Bradshaw.

    In recent weeks there has been widespread speculation of a "Sex and the City 3" that would feature young stars and be based on Bushnell's two new works. But King said he had not read the latest books and was not interested in exploring Carrie Bradshaw's younger self.

    "My Carrie Bradshaw started at 33 and I took her to 40...For me the idea of going backward and making her less evolved...is something I don't even imagine doing," he said.

    King said the show was the complete antithesis of the glamorous settings and characters of "Sex and the City"
