After 16 hours of negotiations Friday, the two sides reached a handshake agreement a little after 3 a.m. ET. Both sides must still get final vote approval from owners and players to finalize the agreement NBA commissioner David Stern held a news conference with Players Association executive director Billy Hunter and president Derek Fisher at 3:40 A.M. in New York.

They may not celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK, but Kate Middleton still looked like she was shopping for a feast this week at a local grocery store.

The Duchess of Cambridge was seen on a solo grocery run yesterday in North Wales, where she packed her shopping cart with food.

So what do she and Prince William eat? Seems pretty standard to us: A full chicken, orange juice, milk, bananas, a basil plant, magazines and some Kellog's Smart cereal.

After that crazy Royal Wedding, we still haven't gotten used to seeing the Prince's bride doing such everyday acts.

What a down to earth Royal Princess!

Justin Bieber Talks PATERNITY Test With David Letterman


Justin Bieber appeared on Late Night with David Letterman and he had no problem joking about his paternity test. Mariah Yeater, who claimed Bieber fathered her son, had requested that JB take the test to prove he's the father.

Bieber and Letterman both referred to Yeater as a "WEASEL." He then went on to tell the host:
    "I am 17, but it is going to happen….Being in the spotlight. I took it. They just swab your mouth."
Despite the negative press this accusation brought to the 17-year-old performer, seems as though he's managed to come out on top. Perhaps girlfriend Selena Gomez has kept his spirits bright throughout all the baby mama drama.

Howard Stern Close To Landing Piers Morgan's Judging Spot On 'America's Got Talent'


Howard Stern and NBC are close to wrapping up the contract that will bring the shock jock to America's Got Talent as a judge, according to the NY Post.

A source tells the Post that creator and executive producer Simon Cowell is "HELLBENT" on Stern joining the show, however the radio personality wants $20 million for the year AND Stern wants the show to move to New York so he can continue his radio show in the Big Apple.

Currently, the production tapes at the CBS Television City studios in LA. The source adds:
    "Moving it to New York would mean over 100 people losing their jobs ... And inconvenience for Howie and Sharon, who wants to spend more time with her husband, Ozzy. Another idea would be for the show to stay in LA and Howard to be a part-time judge."
Another source from the production tells the Post it's "practically a done deal."

Piers Morgan says he's stepping down after six years with AGT to focus more on Piers Morgan Tonight on CNN.

Reps for both Simon Cowell and Howard Stern wouldn't comment on the AGT deal.

Chris Brown BUYS a New Home in the Hollywood Hills

CLICK PICTURE TO ENLARGE

BUYER: Chris Brown
LOCATION: Los Angeles, CA
PRICE: $1,550,000
SIZE: 2,473 square feet, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms

R&B singer/dancer Chris Brown has purchased this home in the Hollywood Hills for a cool $1.5 million.

Property records show the multi-level residence, designed by noted and accomplished L.A.-based architect Jay Vanos, sits high–very, very high–above the narrow and winding street. One old listing that was dug up states that the top of the house soars more than 100 feet above the street, high enough to make someone with even a mild case of acrophobia to sweat like a sow and shriek with anxiety. 

The main portion of the house is accessible by either a butt-busting exterior staircase or private elevator that more easily whisks residents and guests up from the street level interior entry, past the separate guest quarters atop the garage to an exterior glass-railed bridge that spans a plunge-sized swimming pool and spa below and connects to the main entry to the glassy, multi-story main house.

Kris Humphries SUING Kim Kardashian For $10 Million!


Kris Humphries is reportedly gearing up to sue estranged wife Kim Kardashian for $10 million, according to Life & Style.

On October 31 Kim announced that she was filing for divorce after just 72 days of marriage, but this isn't about spousal support for Kris -- it's about reality TV! “Kris has a legal team investigating his options,” the insider tells the mag. “He’s claiming his role on Kourtney & Kim Take New York is bigger than he was told, and that’s why he wants more money. But Kris is also suing because he’s really worried about how badly he’s going to be portrayed on the series.”

Kris is especially concerned about footage of him feuding with Kim’s BFF Jonathan Cheban, and if the clips air, it sounds like it could tarnish his reputation. “Midway through the season, Kris starts bullying Kim’s best friend, Jonathan Cheban, about his sexuality,” a source tells L&S. “Jonathan isn’t gay, but Kris accuses him of being gay and criticizes him for it in a really homophobic way. Jonathan is really upset.” So can the NBA star prevent the footage from airing? Possibly. Kris has met with attorney Lee Hutton III and is "trying his hardest to prevent the most inflammatory moments from being broadcast."

Despite all of this, Kris' father insists that he had no idea he was being played. "Little did Kris know that he was being set up,” William Humphries said. “Kris got used -- 100 percent used."

'Sesame Street' Composer Accused of Cuffing 4-Year-Old, Taking Sex Pics

 CLICK PICTURE TO ENLARGE

A Grammy-winning composer who worked on “Sesame Street” has been charged with making and distributing child pornography -- after allegedly handcuffing a 4-year-old girl, naked, and taking pictures.

59-year-old Fernando Rivas appeared in a South Carolina federal court yesterday -- where he pled "not guilty," according to the Charleston Post & Courier.

Rivas was arrested back in April -- after FBI agents raided the composer's home and, according to court docs, the feds claim they discovered a collection of photographs ... depicting a 4-year-old girl naked and “restrained in handcuffs and other bondage-type devices."

According to the report, cops say Rivas -- who also taught music at a local Charleston school -- admitted to officers that he took the pictures of the little girl and emailed them to two other sick pieces of sh*t.

Rivas remains on house arrest after posting $300,000 bail.

RIcki and J.R. were close on Rob's heels though, both scoring a 54 out of 60. Both danced cha-chas and a freestyle -- with Rodriguez's partner, Karina Smirnoff, stealing the spotlight during their second dance in a very revealing costume.

Justin Bieber took a DNA test Friday in New Jersey to prove he's NOT the father of a baby boy that fan Mariah Yeater claims is the pop star's.

Yeater, 19, filed a paternity suit against Bieber, claiming the child was conceived after an October 2010 concert at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Her son was born in July.

Christina Aguilera performed “Moves Like Jagger” with Adam Levine last night at the American Music Awards, but it wasn't a botched lyric or bad makeup that everyone was talking about -- it was a skimpy bandage dress that showed off her fuller figure in a less-than-flattering way.

Christina's bulging belly was visible through the skintight metallic frock, and several media outlets began to speculate that the Grammy winner is pregnant. Her rep shot down the reports, and a source close to Xtina recently told In Touch that the singer can’t seem to control her weight and it's driving her crazy. “Christina hates her thunder thighs,” the source said.

Well, it wouldn't be as big of a problem if she didn't pick clothes that drew attention to her problem areas!

Weekend Box Office: 'Breaking Dawn' Takes a HUGE Top Spot Win


While it wasn't quite able to reach the series high mark, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1's outstanding estimated $139.5 million opening indicated that the teen vampires are as popular as ever. What does appear to have lost some of its appeal, however, is dancing penguins: Happy Feet Two struggled to even open to half as much as its popular 2006 predecessor.

Overall box office was up around 14 percent to at least $221 million, and the weekend could wind up ranking as the fifth-highest on record. Breaking Dawn's $139.5 million opening is second-best among Twilight movies behind 2009's New Moon ($142.7 million).
