Reality shows must be the new black. Why else would a super diva/new mommy like Jennifer Lopez sign up for one? JLo (we can still call her that) announced Wednesday that she's doing a new reality series for TLC, reports People. Word is she's already begun production and her hubby, Marc Anthony, and the twins, Max and Emme, will be part of it.
Lord have mercy, will somebody just get hold of Amy Winehouse and drag her to rehab already? The troubled singer is being investigated by Scotland Yard for headbutting some guy outside a London bar, and she could end up in jail.
Event takes stress from wedding plans
Planning a wedding can be very intense and nerve-wracking with having to pick the perfect date, reserve the church, shop for the wedding rings, pick out a wedding dress, tuxedos, florist, banquet hall, photographer ... and on and on and on. And, once you've found all the pieces of the puzzle, it turns out to be a lot of time spent driving around and making certain everything is just right, all the while paying nearly $4 a gallon for gasoline. .

What to do with souvenirs of past loves? Click here
Hidden deep in the recesses of armoires and tucked inside the velvet-lined drawers of jewelry boxes everywhere are the flotsam and jetsam of relationships past, the usually well-intended gifts of watches, rings and bracelets.
How to get rid of these items that tend to linger for years? Melt them down? Take a solitary walk to the pier and chuck them into the sea?
The founders of the Web site ExBoyfriendJewelry.com think a mix of cash and catharsis would be most satisfying. The site, created in February by two women here, allows users to sell, auction, trade or simply give away the refuse of their amorous misadventures. But they must tell the stories behind every gift. Prices on the site Tuesday ranged from free to $4,800.
"You went through this hell, through that relationship to get this piece of jewelry, so you deserve something for it," said Megahn Perry, 30, an actress and a writer who said she came up with the idea for the site last fall while eating a pork chop and thinking of her former husband.
Wedding plans ruined by broker collapse
A GEELONG woman's plans of a dream wedding are in disarray after the 27-year-old lost an $18,000 investment in collapsed high-risk stockbroker Chartwell. Leanne Anderson and her fiance Matthew Blair, 27, had organised to use Chartwell director Graeme Hoy’s $6 million yacht and $900,000 Rolls Royce for their November wedding, the Geelong Advertiser reports. But administrators have since seized Mr Hoy’s luxury car and yacht after the Geelong stockbroker folded, owing as much as $70 million to clients. Investors like Ms Anderson were lured to Chartwell by alleged offers of 70 per cent returns. Ian Carson of PPB Accountants said he was troubled to hear of families losing their life savings in the high risk stockbroker.
