Watch Sharon Osbourne Go Jerry Springer on a Charm School Contestant

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Cable, Video


Although we’re still not sure whether is a hair-puller, one thing was definitely made clear last night: the Osbourne matriarch will not tolerate insults about her family.

During yesterday’s Rock of Love Charm School reunion special, the 56-year-old did a fairly decent job keeping her interjections to a minimum while Megan Hauserman blathered about getting her dog fixed. Unfortunately, one of Sharon’s remarks didn’t sit well with the former contestant.

After hearing that she “shouldn’t be allowed to breed,” Megan told Osbourne that the only thing she’s managed to do as a celebrity was take care of her ‘brain dead rock star husband.’ (You can cue the video to the 1:20 mark now.)

Nip/Tuck Returns After A Year Away

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Cable, FX, Nip/Tuck, Video


Although the image of actress Sharon Gless (Colleen Rose) turning a Hollywood agent into a large Build-A-Bear is still fresh on my mind, it’s surprisingly been a year since was last on air. (The show was temporarily halted in February 2008 because of the writers’ strike.)

So where exactly did the series leave off? Julia was shot by Eden, Christian and Annie were involved in a car accident on their way to the hospital, Matt started sleeping with his half-sister and Sean was stabbed in the back (literally) by Colleen.

To get a clue as to what the remaining episodes of Season 5 have in store for us, check out the preview above. Nip/Tuck returns to FX this Tuesday, January 6th at 10:00.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC, Video


Back in elementary school, John Taylor rocked my world. (Actually Nick Rhodes did, but Taylor wasn’t far behind.) But will the Duran Duran guitarist do the same for ?

In this clip from , Taylor stars as rocker Tommy Wylder, a musician who can still make women in the 30+ age group giddy.

Look for John to appear in the January 12 episode of the ABC comedy.

Kathy Griffin’s Comedy: Out of Control?

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Late Night, Reality, Specials, Cable, Gossip, Video

!Warning! The following clip contains offensive and explicit language:


What was a routine New Year’s Eve segment turned into much more when hecklers, a live mic and were thrown into the mix. Since the camera had cut away to go to commercial during Griffin’s comments, it’s highly likely the comedienne thought she was off the air.

Does that make her comments okay? Either way, Griffin lashed out at a bystander in the crowd. While her comments were likely meant to be amusing, it’s doubtful the audience thought anything she said was funny. “Screw you!” The redhead screamed at an onlooker, not shown by the cameras, before she proceeded to make her vulgar comment (heard in entirety in the clip above).

Take Another Look at FOX’s Dollhouse

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, FOX, Video


If Dollhouse‘s last trailer had you on the fence, this sneak peek may tell you exactly what you need - and want - to know.

In this clip from the show’s premiere episode, Topher (Fran Kranz) and Boyd (Harry Lennix) reference the “wiping” that is done to their agents’ memories. (The operation has memories and personalities completely erased after each mission.) Question is: Does this teaser make you wish you could forget too?

premieres February 13 on FOX.


I Confess: I Love Old Teen Idols

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Reality, Cable, MTV, Gossip, Rumors, Video


I usually shy away from reality projects featuring Scott Baio (not falling for that one again), but I just may have to make an exception for VH1. The network will soon be premiering its brand-new Confessions of a Teen Idol, which features seven former hotties who all share the same mission: grab the brass ring.

You know, again.

They each had their shot at fame and some even spent a little time at the top. But Hollywood is capricious, and soon enough all of these men found themselves on the swift path to being has-beens. But VH1 - and apparently, - thinks they could be shining stars once more. Or at the very least, reality stars. Here’s the funniest part: Baio is part host, part mentor to these would-be famous-again celebs.

I know, it’s a total riot.

Using the above video as an example, Perez Hilton questioned a certain 90210 star’s sobriety. Ever since started starring in the revamped and revisited series, she’s been the subject of tabloid fodder.

But is there merit to Hilton’s suspicions? In the clip, does Shenae seem a little too high on life…or whatever?

Tom Cruise and Matt Lauer Reunite on the Today Show

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: NBC, Video


Oh what three years and a change in public perception can do to an actor.

Back in June 2005, Tom Cruise’s press tour for War of the Worlds turned into a war of words between the actor and Matt Lauer. During a memorable appearance on the Today show, Cruise got into a fairly heated discussion about psychiatry (“pseudo-science”), antidepressants (“There is no such thing as a chemical imbalance”) and his critics (“I have never worried, Matt, about what other people think and what other people say.”) Tom also brought the underused word “glib” to everyone’s attention.
