The HBO film Game Change has rekindled America’s interest in the self-proclaimed “pit bull with lipstick” and former governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin, whose nomination as John McCain’s Vice Presidential running mate in 2008 took the political world, and the nation, by surprise. She then became an overnight political superstar after making her national stage debut with a dynamic 40-minute speech at the Republican National Convention.

Jon Hamm, who is known to the world as Mad Men’s Don Draper, sounded off on his opinion of reality stars to an overseas publication.

It’s a Mad Men mad man vs. a mad woman in a mad, mad, mad, mad world!

Read Kim’s Twitter reply that went way past 140 characters to defend her character.
Maci Bookout’s recent Spring Break trip and the resulting slew of bikini photos has sparked our readers’ curiosity about her elaborate array of back tattoos.

It appears Jon Hamm is a mad man when it comes to the popularity of reality stars! The Mad Men actor spoke very candidly on the subject in April’s Elle UK magazine, saying “Whether it’s Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated.” Then he adds, “Being a f***ing idiot is a valuable commodity in this culture because you’re rewarded significantly.” Find out what other trait in women he is not a big fan of, that is bound to further enrage Bethenny Frankel.
Generally, when Lindsay Lohan dyes her hair red again, it’s a good sign. She’s usually happier than usual, and plus, the red hair just flatters her better because she’s one of those natural gingers who looks smokin’ hot when she’s at her best.
Lindsay was snapped with her new color after leaving a doctor’s office in Beverly Hils today. She was smiling, and though she was wearing shades, her face looked better, a little less fluffy (a.k.a. plumped up with fillers) than it has recently.

Nickelodeon vet and current unretired film star Amanda Bynes apparently flashed a little Holly-tude during a routine traffic stop yesterday in Los Angeles. Bynes got pulled over for talking on her cell phone and driving. The cop in question got all of Amanda’s info and made his way back to the patrol vehicle to write up a citation. There was just one major problem, Amanda got tired of waiting and just took off!

Christina Scoleri was announced yesterday as one of the cast members of VH1’s new reality series Mob Wives Chicago, but back before she landed that gig she sat in front of a different video camera in hopes of becoming the “Hottest Mom In America!” (You know the other ladies are going to bring this up on the show!)
“Lover, Lover” singer Jerrod Niemann performed at Heart Strings for Hope in Chattanooga, TN, a benefit for St. Jude Children’s Hospital, and was just wrapping up when his tour bus broke out in flames around 10:45PM ET. In a bit of fire-irony another performer Lee Brice, who helped Niemann write his latest single “Shinin on Me,” had the same thing happen to his tour bus back in late January was on hand and helped save Jerrod’s backside. See an amazingly rock-n-roll photo taken during the ring of fire and see a video as the bus gets toasted.
It seems like only yesterday Britney Spears was raising eyebrows as a teenage Catholic schoolgirl vixen in her “…Baby One More Time” music video. And was it really 20 years ago when lil Brit Brit belted out “Love Can Build A Bridge” on the hallowed stage of Star Search? Now those moments can seem even closer than “just yesterday” (try just 30 seconds ago) thanks to this morphing video of Britney Spears through the years! Plus, another similar video featuring another female pop music icon! (Don’t peek at the categories!)
Troubled Teen Mom star Amber Portwood is in hot water yet again, this time for reportedly not being able to make her own hot water in the form of urine for her mandatory daily drug test.

Prince Harry is on a Hot Eligible Prince Tour! Just kidding! He’s touring in place of his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II to celebrate her 60 years on the throne, called a Diamond Jubliee.

While Pauly D’s crew is out and living large in The Pauly D Project, his mentor DJ Biggie has a serious girlfriend back home. You must be a pretty special lady to keep a man with that type of exposure and readily accessible road “ladies” true. The super trailer released by MTV hints at this dynamic so I thought I’d provide a little info on our girl, MaryJane Giampa, that looks to help keep Pauly D and the boys grounded.

16 and Pregnant Season 4 star Kristina’s Robinson’s fiance John Todd Hight, Jr. drowned while swimming with pregnant Kristina in rough waters off the Galveston, Texas beach on April 30, 2011. Todd’s mom shared her grief with numerous heart-wrenching posts on her deceased son’s public Facebook wall, including many mutually supportive exchanges with Kristina. But, things changed after Kristina gave birth, started dating another man seriously, and then began to distance herself and her son from Todd’s family.

While her man, we can say that now because he’s 18, Justin Bieber has been out in Malibu multi-million-dollar house hunting, Selena Gomez has been in Florida on the set of the film Spring Breakers. The 19-year-old star, who actually was out on the west coast to celebrate the Biebs’ birthday over the weekend, was back in the east coast sunshine state and was kind enough to share what a little bit of her down time looks like in a little bitty bikini. From what I see, her down time looks a heck of a lot better than mine!

If you watched the Gold Rush “Revelations” episode, then you learned a lot more about Parker Schnabel’s temper, John Harness’s unpopularity, and Todd Hoffman’s grand promises for next season; but, you didn’t learn one thing about Dakota Fred Hurt, because he wasn’t on the show. There wasn’t even one oblique allusion to Fred who, at the beginning of Season Two, was in the middle of all the drama. So, what’s up? Find out straight from Fred!
It appears as though Jersey Shore is going to have a shotgun wedding!

Story developing.
Kim Zolciak stole our hearts with a dance version of “Tardy for the Party” (a country song reworked by Kandi Burruss,) then she asked us to “Google Me” (she didn’t have to ask!) Now, she’s gone back her her country aspirations with a new single “Love Me First.”
It’s a country song, for sure, but it’s been enhanced by a little auto-tune magic. It’s about learning to love yourself before you can love anyone else.
Barbara Evans is the most impersonated character in the history of all of Teen Momdom. Her accent and mannerisms always brings a smile to our faces while they usually drive her Teen Mom daughter Jenelle Evans nuts. Her persona has gone as far to inspire its own Twitter account that has over 108,000 followers as of this post. While we all can sit around and try to do our best Bahhhhhbra, Jenelle herself threw down with an impersonation clip that settles who pwns that game. As it should be, no one can do Barbara like Jenelle. Check it out.

Okay, I kind of have a crush on Bethenny Frankel’s nerdy foodie buddy Nick Feitel. He’s really smart, he knows A LOT about food, he writes well, he always calls Bethenny ma’am, and . . . . he’s just a mess, but in a lovable way. He has a compelling mix of exhibitionism and self-conscious uncomfortableness that we can all relate to. He’s sweet, but he has trouble with women, and his relationship with Bethenny is one of the best things to ever come from reality television.
According to Bethenny, Nick (who has an acting reel, and appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman, and a Dell commercial before he was cast on Bethenny’s show,) has recently undergone some changes.
This is harsh.
Snooki’s ex-boyfriend Emilio Masella, who recently appeared on an episode of Dr. Drew’s Lifechangers entitled “You’re Not a Reality Star, So Get a Job” with his frustrated mother, is saying some hurtful things about the pint-sized guidette’s pregnancy news.
“I’ve had my own opinions as each new release dropped since then and each time while I may have disagreed I could see where each side was coming from either yea or nay. But now we have Wrecking Ball and of any original release that the best guitar picker from Asbury Park, New Jersey has let out in to the world this is the one that has the power, strength and consistency to most deservedly sit at the bar and toss ’em back with those other records of Bossman yore. Yes. I’m telling you to feel all right if you’re in a hurry and slip this new album in between Nebraska and Born in the U.S.A. While you’re out you shouldn’t feel disrespectful or bad about it.”
19-year-old Demi Lovato has become one of the strongest role models young women have today, and it’s not because she projects an image of goody-two-shoes perfection. She’s one of the most truly inspiring pop stars we have because she’s so open and honest about the tough things in life, and in her new documentary “Stay Strong,” airing on MTV Tuesday @ 10 EST, Demi further takes us into her relatable world.
Disney star Demi Lovato shocked fans when she entered rehab for cutting and bulimia, and emotional issues after she punched a back-up dancer at the airport. Demi was axed from Disney Channel show Sonny with an Chance, and as always happens, people speculated that her career would suffer.

The highlight of Lindsay Lohan’s SNL gig last night was her role as Rapunzel in the pre-taped skit “Real Housewives of Disney.” This mash-up was so good my toes curled.
Kristin Wiig stole the intros as Cinderella, who’s tagline is “I’m a huge f**kin’ mess.” And it was all downhill from there (which, of course is uphill in Real Housewives’ world.)
MTV’s trailer for the fourth season of 16 and Pregnant featured a number of dramatic and emotional moments from the upcoming season, but none more so than the brief moment in which Kristina Robinson says, “My fiance passed away.

Honestly, I hope she does amazing and wish her the best, but there’s another sketch comedy queen coming to TV Sunday night that deserves a lot more hype.
Stevie TV premiere’s Sunday night @ 11PM EST on VH1. (You can also stream the premier online.) It features Stevie Ryan, a lady who got a deal of internet fame when performed a character called “Little Lola” on a still new website called YouTube.

Long time A-list celebrity pals and pranksters George Clooney and Brad Pitt are staring in a play tonight about gay marriage.

Mob Wives star Drita D’Avanzo is not one for sitting on her super fine laurels and settling for just being one of celebridom’s biggest and badassest reality stars.

No one on Bering Sea Gold embodies amateur desperation like its most prominently featured undersea miner, Scott Meisterheim. The season is not off to a good start for the Captain of the Wild Ranger, and some say it is because he has an anger problem. He blames his poor performance on the idiots he works with. But what’s the real story?
Whitney Purvis from the first season of 16 & Pregnant was arrested in Georgia yesterday for allegedly trying to steal a pregnancy test from Walmart. Man, I couldn’t make this stuff up if I tried! See the full mug shot and read on for the details of her arrest.

Nicki Minaj unveiled the album cover to her sophomore effort Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded on Twitter earlier today, along with the tweet, “Pink Friday: ROMAN RELOADED | April 3rd | #AlbumCover #ItBangBang.” The artwork features a blonde Minaj with Ke$ha-esque ’80s glam fluorescent face paint set against a colorful splatter paint background. I don’t about you, but it has me humming “How Will I Know” by Whitney Houston for some reason.
Some preliminary reports have indicated that MTV has gone with a slightly more subdued cast for the upcoming fourth season of 16 and Pregnant, but that apparently isn’t the case for at least one of the girls to be featured.
